Legendary makeup artist Pat McGrath has been appointed Creative Director of La Beauté Louis Vuitton, marking the luxury house’s long-awaited expansion into beauty.

“Working backstage for over 20 years at Louis Vuitton fashion shows, I am thrilled to now play such a key role in the launch of La Beauté Louis Vuitton,” McGrath shared in a statement. She described the upcoming collection as “extraordinary craftsmanship, creativity, and innovation”, promising it will redefine luxury beauty.

According to WWD, Louis Vuitton’s beauty division has been in development for four years. While details remain under wraps, the brand’s debut lineup will feature 55 lipsticks, 10 lip balms, and eight eye palettes, with a launch set for this fall.

McGrath teased the collection’s allure, stating, “It’s a beautiful collection. You will love it!” With her visionary touch, Louis Vuitton’s beauty venture is already shaping up to be a game-changer in the industry.

Cori Broadus and her fiancé Wayne Deuce have officially become parents.

Over the weekend, Snoop Dogg’s only daughter announced the birth of their baby girl, who arrived three months ahead of schedule.

“The princess arrived at 6 months,”Cori revealed on Instagram, sharing a touching black-and-white photo of her newborn’s tiny foot.

The early arrival sparked a mix of emotions for the 25-year-old, who admitted to grappling with self-doubt. “I’ve cried and cried, I’ve compared and compared, blaming myself because I wasn’t able to give her all that she needed,” she wrote. “But no matter what, God always shows me that He got me! Baby girl came at 25 weeks today and she’s the best!! Thank You God for getting me this far.”

Cori, who disabled comments on her post, previously opened up about the complications she faced during pregnancy. She was diagnosed with HELLP syndrome, a rare and life-threatening condition that affects the liver and blood cells. Urging women to stay in tune with their bodies, she warned, “Don’t believe everything you see on TikTok (talking to myself lowkey).”

The collection offers even more lingerie essentials, including a bralette, underwire teddy, and Brazilian panty, with prices ranging from $25 to $95 based on membership. Sizes are inclusive, spanning XS to 4X.

The latest campaign comes on the heels of GloRilla being named the first-ever joint ambassador for Fenty Beauty, Fenty Hair, Fenty Skin, and Savage X Fenty.

The channel, available on the SiriusXM app from March 4 through April 2, will showcase Blige’s catalog of timeless hits alongside music from generational icons and rising stars like Anita Baker, Lauryn Hill, Victoria Monét, Ella Mai, and Summer Walker.

This summer, on the anniversary of the historic July 18, 1863 Battle of Fort Wagner—where one of the first all-Black Civil War regiments made a courageous charge against Confederate forces—the long-awaited full version of DC’s African American Civil War Memorial Museum will finally open its doors.

Located in the Shaw neighborhood at Vermont Avenue and U Street, the 15,000-square-foot museum has been in the works for decades, spearheaded by activist and former DC Council member Frank Smith. “I have been thinking and praying and preaching and carrying on about this for all these many years,” Smith shared. “And I’m glad to say that we’ve got a date now that we can rely upon.”

The museum brings to life the stories of Black Civil War soldiers through reenactments, educational films, and live performances in a 100-seat auditorium. Artifacts on display include war-era uniforms, drums used for battlefield communication, and original Bill of Sale documents from the era of slavery.

New exhibits feature a video of Michelle Obama discussing her ancestors who served in the U.S. Colored Troops (USCT), a Hall of Heroes honoring Black servicemembers, and a "Bullets to Ballots" section tracing post-Civil War voting rights.
