Nicki Minaj took a break from hosting the 2023 MTV VMAs to perform her new song “Last Time I Saw You.” Watch her rendition of the track below.
In a surprisingly low-key performance for the rapper, Nicki mostly stood still at the mic to sing “Last Time I Saw You,” which has a delicate guitar line and lyrics like, “I’ll always adore you” — offering a complete tonal shift from recent tracks like “Super Freaky Girl.” Soon enough, however, Minaj shed her fluffy black gown and offered Barbz a “Pink Friday 2 exclusive,” rapping a much heavier, unreleased new song.
Minaj won Best Hip-Hop for “Super Freaky Girl” at the 2023 VMAs. This year marks the artist’s second turn as VMAs host; last year, she performed a career-spanning medley after receiving the Video Vanguard Award.
Now, if emceeing and performing as a solo artist weren’t enough, Minaj will also join Dmc,...

Broadway can be a loud place, with belters belting and orchestras swelling and actors playing to rafters in the theater across the street, so it’s both comforting and mesmerizing to see a play as quietly poignant as David Auburn’s Summer, 1976.
Starring Laura Linney and Jessica Hecht – both outstanding – Summer, 1976, a Manhattan Theatre Club production opening tonight at the Samuel J. Friedman Theater, recounts a long-ago friendship that, on the surface, doesn’t seem particularly unusual or outwardly impactful.
Two women, both connected to Ohio State University, are brought together through their young daughters: the mothers are part of a babysitting co-op, and though the two women take an instant disliking to one another, circumstance and proximity begin to wear away their defenses. Alice, played by Hecht, is vaguely hippie-ish, married to a professor and often carrying a joint or two, while the other, Linney’s Diana, is a single mom,...

The Tony Awards contest for the top honor of Best Play is the most crowded it has been in at least a decade. A whopping 17 new dramatic works will vie for only five slots that recognize the most stellar productions and playwrights on Broadway. This season, the plays in contention hail from renowned dramatists like Tony winners Tom Stoppard for “Leopoldstadt” and David Auburn for “Summer, 1976,” and past nominee Sharr White for “Pictures From Home.” Notably, there are also three winners of the Pulitzer Prize eligible this season: James Ijames’ “Fat Ham,” Stephen Adly Guirgis’ “Between Riverside and Crazy,” and Martyna Majok’s “Cost of Living.” If all three of these works land nominations, the Tonys will set a record for the most Pulitzer winners nominated for Best Play in one year in history.
According to our current combined odds, it is very possible that history will indeed be made this year.
