Drake Slammed for Shading Taylor Swift’s ‘Midnights’ Success

It’s been a whirlwind week in the world of pop culture, and we’ve got the receipts. From Drake subtly shading Taylor Swift to Pete Davidson’s rumored romance with Emily Ratajkowski, and even an emotional farewell from beloved entertainment host Susan Morad — the drama, the tea, and the goodbyes are overflowing. So buckle up, because here’s your all-access recap of the week’s hottest entertainment news.

🎯 Did Drake Just Throw Shade at Taylor Swift?

Drake is no stranger to the top of the charts, but fans are speculating that he’s not too happy about Taylor Swift snatching the No. 1 spot with her Midnights track, Anti-Hero. The rapper celebrated his own impressive Billboard Hot 100 performance — with Her Loss dominating spots 2 through 9 — but conspicuously covered Taylor’s name in the No. 1 position on his Instagram Story.

Yup. Instead of a full chart screenshot, Drake blocked out Taylor’s name and song with a handful of emojis — popcorn, an eight ball, a head massage emoji, and more — as if trying to erase the fact that she beat him to the top. Fans were not having it.

One wrote, “Drake being petty towards Taylor because she blocked him on the charts… it’s your decision to release your album after hers.” Another chimed in, “Low-key, this is kinda embarrassing.”

Let’s not forget: Taylor’s Anti-Hero has held the No. 1 position for three straight weeks, making it the longest-running chart-topper in her career. And to make things even more legendary, she’s the first artist in Billboard’s 64-year history to occupy the entire top 10 at once. If that’s not a flex, what is?

Despite Drake previously praising Taylor and even posting a throwback hug with her on IG earlier this year, he has now deleted that post. Could this be the start of a new music feud? Or just a moment of competitive ego? Either way, Taylor fans are watching — and so are we.

💕 Pete Davidson & Emily Ratajkowski? The Rumors Heat Up

Meanwhile, Pete Davidson is once again back in the headlines — this time, for reportedly dating model and actress Emily Ratajkowski. The dating speculation hit an all-time high when Emily liked a viral tweet from none other than Dionne Warwick, who jokingly posted, “I will be dating Pete Davidson next.”

Classic internet chaos ensued.

An insider told E! News that the two have “gone on a few dates” and recently reconnected after Pete texted Emily to “catch up.” The vibe? Casual. The internet? Losing it.

This comes after Pete’s high-profile breakup with Kim Kardashian, and fans are loving the idea of this unexpected duo. Emily has subtly hinted at the rumors, but so far, nothing’s confirmed — just enough breadcrumbs to keep fans guessing.

😢 Olivia Rodrigo Was Moved to Tears by Selena Gomez’s Documentary

Let’s shift gears from drama to vulnerability. Olivia Rodrigo opened up about the emotional impact Selena Gomez’s documentary My Mind & Me had on her. The Driver’s License singer shared that she “cried so many times” while watching the film, and called it a powerful, important project.

The doc reveals Selena’s struggles with mental health, fame, and identity, and Olivia’s reaction echoes the sentiments of fans everywhere. Selena continues to shine as both a performer and an advocate for mental wellness — and it’s clearly resonating with the next generation of artists.

🎬 Kim Kardashian Under Fire Over North West’s Horror Movie Pick

Kim Kardashian is catching heat after her daughter, North West, revealed that her favorite movie is… The Conjuring 3. That’s right — the R-rated horror flick apparently tops North’s list, and people on the internet are split.

While some fans say it’s no big deal, others question whether it’s appropriate for a 10-year-old. Kim and North’s joint TikTok account has comments disabled, but that didn’t stop the chatter. One thing’s for sure — this mother-daughter duo knows how to make headlines.

🌈 JoJo Siwa vs. Candace Cameron Bure… Again

JoJo Siwa isn’t done calling out Candace Cameron Bure. After Candace made comments suggesting her network will focus on “traditional marriage,” JoJo responded with a scathing post.

“Honestly, I can’t believe after everything that went down a few months ago, that she would not only create a movie with the intention of excluding LGBTQIA+ people but then talk about it in the press,” JoJo wrote.

It’s not the first time these two have clashed, and with JoJo using her platform to stand up for inclusivity, this won’t be the last time we hear from her on this issue.

👨‍👩‍👧 Ashley Tisdale & Austin Butler Are Family?

In a fun twist of fate, High School Musical star Ashley Tisdale discovered that she’s related to Elvis actor Austin Butler — they’re 10th cousins, once removed!

Ashley made the discovery on the show Two Lies and a Leaf and said it all made sense, considering their deep connection and brother-sister vibes. When she texted Austin the news, he simply responded, “No way!” Family reunions just got a little more fabulous.

💔 A Bittersweet Goodbye from Susan Morad

Now, for a more emotional piece of news: entertainment host Susan Morad is officially signing off from Clevver News after over three and a half years.

In her heartfelt farewell, Susan thanked viewers for their love and support, reflecting on the journey of covering pop culture highs and lows with the audience she calls her “internet family.” From breaking celebrity news to engaging with fans in the comments, Susan made it clear just how much this chapter meant to her.

“I don’t know each of you by name, but I really do feel like we are a little family here,” she said. “This isn’t goodbye — we can still connect on my personal TikTok and YouTube where I’ll continue reporting all the tea.”

Susan leaves behind a legacy of vibrant, relatable entertainment reporting. And with her landing floor seats to The Eras Tour, something tells us she’s ending this chapter on a high note.
