Diddy Allegedly Threatened Michael B. Jordan Over Cassie, Met Gala 2025’s Best & Worst Looks, and Rihanna Pregnant Again!

The worlds of hip-hop, Hollywood, and high fashion collided this week in an explosion of drama, controversy, and unforgettable style moments. From shocking revelations at Diddy’s federal trial to the glitz and glamour (and occasional fashion disasters) at the Met Gala, and the surprise announcement of Rihanna’s pregnancy, here’s everything you need to know about the week that had everyone talking.

Diddy’s Trial: Michael B. Jordan Dragged Into Cassie Saga

Music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs is facing the most turbulent chapter of his career as his federal trial kicks off, with allegations ranging from racketeering to trafficking. But among the parade of shocking accusations, one bombshell detail has people stunned: Diddy allegedly threatened Hollywood A-lister Michael B. Jordan over his ex-girlfriend, Cassie Ventura.

The Allegations

Cassie, who filed a lawsuit against Diddy in 2023, accused him of a litany of horrific behaviors: physical abuse, trafficking, and using violence and intimidation to control her. In her lawsuit, Cassie detailed that Diddy not only threatened her life but also targeted the men she was romantically linked to—including Kid Cudi, whose car was reportedly blown up, and now, Michael B. Jordan.

According to Cassie’s legal complaint, in 2015, while filming a movie in South Africa, she began a flirtatious relationship with an unnamed actor. After spending New Year’s Eve together, Diddy allegedly found out, called the actor, and threatened him. Rolling Stone recently revealed that the actor in question was none other than Michael B. Jordan. The report claims that after being threatened by Diddy, Michael B. Jordan called Cassie and told her, “You really need to call Mr. Combs.”

A Pattern of Possessiveness

This isn’t the first time Diddy’s jealousy has made headlines. Cassie’s lawsuit and other sources allege that Diddy would routinely threaten any man who got close to his girlfriends, including the late Kim Porter. The pattern paints a disturbing picture of possessiveness and control.

With his trial underway, many in the industry believe Diddy’s days of dodging consequences are over. As more names are expected to surface in court—possibly even Kanye West, according to some insiders—the world is watching to see just how deep the scandal goes.

Met Gala 2025: The Best, Worst, and Wildest Looks

While Diddy’s legal woes played out in court, the fashion world gathered for its own spectacle: the 2025 Met Gala. This year’s theme celebrated Black fashion, especially the legacy of Black men and the art of “dandism”—think tailored suits, bow ties, hats, and canes.

Standout Stars and Red Carpet Winners

Teyana Taylor: Channeled Victorian-era elegance with a Marc Jacobs suit, giving off serious Lady Danbury vibes. Not everyone could pull off this bold look, but Teyana absolutely owned it.

Janelle Monáe: Embraced the theme with a bold pinstriped Tom Brown suit and creative accessories, earning her a spot on many best-dressed lists.
Coco Jones: Made her Met Gala debut in a detailed Minaj Mahalra suit. The intricate embellishments stood out, though some wished she’d chosen a bolder hairstyle.

No Met Gala recap would be complete without mentioning Rihanna, the undisputed queen of the event. This year, she arrived in a custom Marc Jacobs ensemble, glowing and very much pregnant with her third child. Fans and media alike erupted with congratulations for Rihanna and A$AP Rocky, who continue to be one of the most beloved couples in pop culture.

Rihanna’s appearance was the cherry on top of a night already packed with drama, style, and surprises. Her effortless confidence and radiant pregnancy glow reminded everyone why she remains a Met Gala legend.
