Big Sean Insists His ‘Tootsie Roll' Torso Is Self-Made After Being Dragged Into Arguments Over Aubrey's Allegedly Altered Abs
Big Sean is laughing off rumors that his muscles are fake after he was inexplicably dragged into conversations about Drake's alleged Etch-A-Sketch abs. Source: Warner Bros. TV / Getty The internet has been buzzing over Drake's physique for years now, which was only heightened when Kendrick Lamar referenced his allegedly fake abs on his 'Euphoria' diss track last year. A picture the Toronto rapper posted earlier this month brought that chatter back to the forefront, and for some reason, fans decided to drag Big Sean and his muscles into the mix. Fitness influencer @thenutritionnarc posted a video to social media analyzing the rapper's body, attempting to answer whether the Detroit native has undergone surgery to enhance his body. In his video, the influencer posted several photos and clips of the rapper's torso, saying Sean has 'extremely defined abs' that seem to be 'sitting on top of a bubble gut.' In the end, he ultimately decided that Big Sean had likely received ab etching or had taken steroids, before adding that the rapper has 'very interesting genetics.' After the influencer's video began to make the rounds, Big Sean replied directly in the comment section, denying claims of ab altering and laughing off the allegations. 'Bro, unfortunately mine are real lol,' the rapper wrote. 'I got love for the fake [ab] community tho, to each its own, but what makes this funnier is this is the way God made me.' He went on to joke that when he's out of shape, he 'just happen[s] to look like a chewed up tootsie roll.' 'But i can only speak for myself,' Sean continued. 'I only have to say something cause this s**t is getting way outta hand 😂.' He then added another two comments: 'So just to be clear' and 'No nothing.' In a follow-up video, the influencer revealed that Big Sean had also sent him a message directly, sharing a photo of the DM. 'I commented on your video, this s**t is funny cause thats the way i was made,' Sean wrote, adding, 'i just gained Dad weight n had to crack down on working out as i got older bro.' He continued, 'So my body has gone thru a lot lol. No surgery though. Cant believe i have to explain myself.'

Zendaya goes viral for ‘very demure' fan encounter while filming ‘Dune: Part Three'
Zendaya may be away from her fiancé Tom Holland while filming 'Dune: Part Three' in Budapest, but she's still being showered with love thanks to one fan's enthusiastic pup. A video of the Oakland actor petting a small black dog has gone viral, with several social media users praising Zendaya for her etiquette. The brief clip shows the ' Euphoria ' star standing next to a black van on the side of a street in Budapest, chatting with fans sitting on the ground in front of her. Zendaya appears to ask permission to approach one of the dogs among the group. Upon receiving consent, Zendaya drops into a squat to get closer when the dog quickly jumps onto her knees and begins licking her face. 'Pov: your dog just licked Zendaya's mouth,' read the text on the video, shared on TikTok on Friday, July 4. The post has since received 1.4 million views and 223,300 likes. 'Bro made the most of his opportunity,' one fan joked in the comment section, receiving 3,057 likes, while another simply wrote, 'He took his chance,' earning 65 likes. Once the dog jumps off her lap in the video, Zendaya laughs off the interaction and continues scratching its head. Her gentle approach struck fans in the comment section, who praised the Golden Globe-winning actor for being respectful throughout the interaction. 'See how she asked before petting the dog? Very mindful very demure,' commented TikTok user @preka012, receiving 30,400 likes. Though Zendaya appears to be alone in the video, her ' Dune ' castmates Timothée Chalamet and Jason Momoa are due to join her in Budapest for the third installment of the science fiction series, which adapts Frank Herbert's 1969 novel 'Dune Messiah.' Director Denis Villeneuve is shooting sequences of the film with IMAX cameras, according to Variety, though not exclusively. This approach mirrors Christopher Nolan's work on his next project, 'The Odyssey,' in which Zendaya and Holland star. Both films are reportedly the only ones to be produced in such a way. 'The Odyssey' is set for theatrical release on July 17, 2026, while 'Dune: Part Three' is expected in theaters in December 2026. Meanwhile, as Zendaya begins working on 'Dune: Part Three,' Holland has been spotted enjoying some downtime at Wimbledon and the Silverstone Grand Prix in his native England.

Under the European sun: Here's all the tea about Tom Brady and Sofia Vergara
Game on! Maybe. The burning question of the summer of 2025: Are two of the most eligible and sought after singletons on the planet giving it a go? The buzz heard around the world is that Tom Brady and Sofia Vergara are a thing. The retired NFL quarterback and 'Modern Family' actress have been spending time together in Ibiza, Spain, as per Page Six. One source described it as a 'summer romance' that kicked off when they both were aboard Ritz Carlton's Luminara superyacht's maiden voyage over the July 4 weekend. Brady, 47, reportedly asked to be seated next to Vergara, 53, at dinner (there's photographic proof of that on social media) and we gather sparks flew. Back on land, the two are still apparently still getting along swimmingly, and we actually think this relationship could work. Brady lives in Indian Creek Village in Miami Beach, and Vergara, who kicked off her TV career in Miami, is a frequent visitor and has family in town. They're also around the same age, and both have highly scrutinized love lives. Brady split from Gisele Bundchen, with whom he shares two kids, in 2022. Vergara finalized her divorce from 'Magic Mike' hunk Joe Manganiello last April. The Colombiana has a grown son from her first marriage. Last month, Brady was spotted dancing with 'Euphoria' star Sydney Sweeney at Jeff Bezos' wedding to Lauren Sanchez in Venice. The 27-year-old actress has a place in the Keys, so she's also geographically attractive. But our money's on Vergara, who's even a football fan. READ MORE: Sofia Vergara spends quality time in Miami
