Ariana Grande released a video of her pig alongside her new track

So, Ariana Grande and Pete Davidson own a pet pig called Piggy Smallz.

And this week, Ariana released her new track Breathin’.

If you’d assumed these facts were in no way interlinked, you’d be wrong.

The video for the track was three minutes and 18 seconds of nothing but Piggy Smalls doing his thing.

While fans appreciate Piggy Smallz and all he stands for, they were somewhat confused, to put it mildly. 

And when Ariana announced that it was the official video, heads started to roll.

But after realising her fans weren’t going to take it for much longer, Ariana had to reveal that she was taking the piss and an official video was on its way.

Saying she’d been through hell and back, Ariana then admitted she thought it would make her fans laugh.

Can’t please everyone.

Kim Cattrall’s SATC co-star defends her against criticism

At this stage we all know that Kim Cattrall doesn’t want to make a third Sex and the City movie.

And after the second film, it’d be fair to suggest that the vast majority of die-hard SATC fans would be with her on this. ‘Laurence of my labia’, anyone?

Anyway, while it seems Kim’s decision has caused ructions in the Sex and the City camp, she has found an ally in a former co-star.

Gilles Marini, who played Danté in the first SATC movie, isn’t pleased over the backlash Kim received in the wake of her decision to draw a line under the project.

Speaking to US Weekly, he said:

We can’t point fingers at anybody because they didn’t want to make a movie. If it doesn’t make them happy, they shouldn’t do it, because then you’ll regret it.

And for good measure, he added:

Kim is one of the most incredible women on planet Earth. She’s absolutely phenomenal, kind, sweet, strong. What an actress.

Fair enough.

Kim Kardashian was reportedly mortified by Kanye’s speech in the Oval Office

So, Kanye went full Kanye in the Oval Office this week, ranting, raving and rambling like no other.

And apparently Kim was left ‘heartbroken and mortified’ by the meeting which was live streamed.

Speaking to HollywoodLife, a source close to the couple said:

Kanye’s intentions were good, but he’s clearly being played by Trump, who was outright laughing at him at one point. It’s just sad.

He added that Kim doesn’t have much say in Kanye’s decisions and simply has to deal with the aftermath of each latest endeavour.

The problem is, there’s no telling Kanye how to act, and there’s no advising him to be calm or cool. He’s going to launch into whatever he wants, and Kim has to be there to pick up the pieces afterwards.
