The son of rap star Nicki Minaj has captured the hearts of fans as he's made another appearance on his mother's social feeds. Although she hasn't disclosed his name as yet, the eight-month-old baby is affectionately called Papa Bear by his mom, and for fans, that's his name!
It's the second time Nicki Minaj shared images of her son since January when he was around three months old.
The new images are from behind-the-scenes footage captured as she promotes her new song with Drake and Lil Wayne , "Seeing Green."
Other photos show her husband holding their son in his arms while they pose for their first Christmas portrait.
Nicki Minaj is also showing a different side to her as she shares her moments as a working mother. In the middle of a backyard photoshoot, she turns to someone off-camera and asks that they take Papa Bear inside because the sun is too hot. "Get him out this hot sun," she says.
Nicki Minaj also turned some heads on the Gram when she posted some photos of herself donning a skin-tight dress showing off her post baby body.
The rapper, who has in the past said she was excited about motherhood, shared that she's enjoying her moments with her son.
"I've also been completely overwhelmed with joy & fulfillment in the world of Papa Bear," she wrote to fans who are finally happy to see the rapper after her almost year-long hiatus before and after her pregnancy. "Each day creates a new & fascinating, magical memory that I hide far away into a little cute compartment of my heart; vowing never to forget any of it."
Meanwhile, she also shared her son's favorite movie is Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa, and he has said his first words among them- "mama."

Stassie Karanikolaou sizzled in a skin-tight patterned catsuit as she stepped out for Kendall Jenner 's star-studded 818 tequila launch party at The Nice Guy in West Hollywood, LA , on Friday.
The best friend of Kylie Kenner, 23-year-old Stassie - whose real name is Anastasia - put her gym-honed physique on full display as she made her way inside.
The bottom half of Stassie's figure-hugging outfit was stamped with black, blue and maroon colour block detailing, while the top wrapped around the bombshell's neck and featured cut-out detailing across the chest.
Stassie wore her long brunette hair in loose curls and teamed her catsuit with a pair of pointed open-toe heels.
The brunette beauty wore a full face of glam for her night on the town and accessorised with stacks of bangles worn on each wrist.
Stassie has been hard at work in the gym in recent weeks, after admitting in her most recent YouTube video that she gained about fifteen pounds in quarantine.
The social media sensation joined a slew of celebrities at the glitzy event, which included Kendall, 25, and her famous siblings Kylie, 23, Kim Kardashian, 40, and Khloé, 36.

90 Day Fiancé: How Angela Deem's Style Has Changed Over The Years
The explosive Angela Deem is on the top of all 90 Day Fiancé news updates these days thanks to her shocking weight loss surgery and jaw-dropping makeover. Alongside losing the 100 pounds, Georgia native Angela has also had a major fashion upgrade. Those seeing Angela on her Instagram can't believe it's the same mother of two daughters and grandmother to six that they were introduced to on 90 Day Fiancé in 2018.
When 52-year-old Angela fell for 30-year-old Michael, little did she know their romance would be the talk of the reality TV town three years later. So far, Angela has appeared on plenty of 90 Day Fiancé spin-offs, including the current season of 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? , which was filmed last year. But with the journey that started in August 2020 for Angela on the show now reaping its results on social media, a different side to the meemaw is starting to show. Her looking two years younger, and more energetic than ever, has made husband Michael fear she might leave him for a new man, while the 2021 post weight loss surgery Angela is simply being called one word by 90 Day Fiancé fans – gorgeous.
While dropping oodles of weight to become more confident in her skin, 90 Day Fiancé superstar Angela has also transformed her fashion from the skin-tight and laid-back style she rocked during her reality TV debut. In her first-ever scene, as Angela played a mock British tea party with her grandkids and daughter Scottie Deem, she wore a loose, cotton-printed shirt and capri pants. But the rest of the season saw Angela mostly in plain t-shirts and cleavage-revealing blouses with spaghetti straps and unkempt hair, which became a signature for the nursing assistant.
The low-cut tops are what often gave away Angela using her chest as a purse, with the tight shirts giving the 90 Day Fiancé star plenty of room to fit in her phone, cigarettes, maybe a packet of Kleenex, and more. However, with her chest now two pounds lighter , Angela has reconsidered what she wears, judging by her before and after photoshoot done by Us Weekly . Now, Angela seems to dress more her age, in classy wrap-around dresses, and hair in a long blonde ponytail.
The latest photos of Angela after l osing 100 pounds are from Mother's Day , in which the 90 Day Fiancé star flaunted her trim figure in a black thin-strap mini dress. Although Angela makes sure to avoid giving away what she looks like now, fans can tell that, along with her body, her personal style transformation has come a long way. Part of the huge change in her appearance is owed to Angela's clothes. Perhaps 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? season six will fully show off Angela's makeover, from the top of her head to the tips of her toes.
'Alias' Ended 15 Years Ago: 10 Standout Disguises From the Spy Show
Before Sydney Bristow headed into semi-retirement in Alias ' season finale—which aired 15 years ago this May 22—she must have blown through the CIA's wig and wardrobe budget.
During her undercover missions, Jennifer Garner ‘s character was a clandestine chameleon, donning at least one disguise per episode—often more!
You can get a fast-paced tour of Syd's aliases in the Season 4 opening titles , which featured a montage of more than four dozen of her looks by that point. But we'd also direct your attention to the costumes below, some of our favorites from the 2000s-era ABC drama.
In the pilot episode, Sydney has a Run Lola Run moment when she dyes her hair bright red to go incognito on a trip to Taiwan. (Producer Sarah Caplan said she saw that cherry-red hair color on a UCLA student while scouting for locations and paid the young woman $39 for a clipping.)
On a mission to Moscow, Sydney shimmies into a skin-tight latex micro-dress that somehow still allowed her to take down a bad guy with a roundhouse kick. And check this out, Alias fans: Pieces of the dress are still on sale .
For Sydney's Parisian nightclub number in "Rendezvous" (fun fact: Garner did her own singing!) costume designer Laura Goldsmith decked out the super-spy in a black Emporio Armani tuxedo pant and jacket, an Agent Provocateur corset, and a thousand-strand black beaded choker, as she told TVLine in 2016.
Syd heads back to Taiwan in the Season 1 finale, "Almost 30 Years," and wears a turquoise wig, a mesh top, and PVC pants to blend in at a dance club. Vaughn ( Michael Vartan ), meanwhile, gets away with a leather jacket and some hair gel.
On a Moscow mission in "Dead Drop," Syd infiltrates a FAPSI library by posing as a military officer, with spy tools hidden in her alter-ego's medals. (And da , Sydney speaks fluent Russian to help sell the illusion.)
In "The Getaway," Sydney made a "Hella Good" interception at a security checkpoint in an airport in Nice, France—sporting a spiky purple wig, red fishnets, and a thick New York accent for her final SD-6 outing.
Billie Eilish claims her power on British Vogue – Lomabeat.com
As an icon for body positivity and female empowerment, Billie Eilish was chosen for the June 2021 cover issue of British Vogue where she also addressed the making of her upcoming album, "Happier Than Ever," dropping on July 30. She has found a way to pave her own path since gaining attention as a 14-year-old, when she uploaded her first song , “Ocean Eyes,” to SoundCloud and which became viral the next day on that platform. She quickly built her fandom and gained respect for the vulnerability and honesty in her songs.
In this new British Vogue cover shoot, Eilish trades her iconic neon green hair for a classic blonde look, channeling pin-ups in corsets, cat suits and lingerie to show that her maturity is nothing new to the world and that she has a point to make. She says in the Vogue interview, "Don't make me not a role model because you're turned on by me."
In the same British Vogue cover shoot, Gucci creative director Alessandro Michele, who collaborates with Eilish on a regular basis, said about this specific look: "She is a continuously evolving artist with a new vision and interpretation of herself in terms of femininity. Billie is exactly where she means to be without prejudice. That's why working with her is so stimulating – she forces me to think differently."
More simplistic interpretations of Eilish's aesthetic saw her as an icon of body positivity and a good example compared to female pop stars who wear less. She never claimed to stand for any of it.
Playoff Buzzer: Hellebuyck blanks McDavid, double OT - Friday in NHL
After three straight Capitals – Bruins playoff games went to OT, Game 4 was more or less clinched early in the third period. To Washington’s credit, they stayed in a game that Boston largely dominated. Eventually, the Bruins broke through in Game 4, and the Capitals are now on the brink of elimination. Boston’s best have been a lot better than Washington’s top players so far in this First Round playoff series.
Instead, Connor Hellebuyck has been absolutely tremendous against Connor McDavid and the Oilers. As great as Hellebuyck was in Game 1, he was even more brilliant in Game 2. Hellebuyck pitched a 38-save shutout in Game 2, with McDavid and Leon Draisaitl combining for nine of those shots on goal themselves.
Hellebuyck’s allowed just a single goal in this series, and hasn’t had much room for error (Mike Smith’s only allowed three). Give credit to the Jets’ defense. As a team, they’ve limited the room for McDavid, Draisaitl, and the Oilers. But a lesser goalie probably wouldn’t have Edmonton in this spot.
Again, that 5-1 score didn’t fairly depict the Blues’ efforts on Friday, but that’s how the playoffs often work in the NHL. Grubauer didn’t notch a shutout, but he stopped 31 out of 32 shots. Grubauer was probably the biggest reason why the Avalanche beat the Blues in Game 3.
While some focus from Bruins – Capitals Game 4 will be on Washington’s power play, the biggest concern is even-strength play. McAvoy is a big reason why. The Capitals only generated one high-danger chance against the Bruins at even-strength in Game 4.
Frankly, McAvoy ranks as one of the NHL’s best even-strength defensemen, and he showed why with a great effort on Friday. The three assists were merely the delicious icing on the cake.

Opinion: Juvenile detention centers have failed juveniles – HS Insider
The juvenile criminal justice system is an integral aspect of our society. Historically, juvenile detention centers have been birthed from the same prison logics that we see permeate the criminal justice system, specially dating back to European methods of population control, according to “ Juvenile Justice: Redeeming Our Children ” by Barry Krisberg.
Methods of surveillance in the juvenile criminal justice system such as the ankle monitor have also caused damage beyond their intended purpose.
In a 2017 article published by The Marshal Project, Christopher shared his experience of “ Adolescence with an Ankle Bracelet .”
“It was a black box with thick straps, and it weighed 3 pounds, which made walking kind of hard. At first, they put it on me loose, not skin-tight,” Christopher wrote for The Marshal Project . “But then some kids, apparently, started slipping the thing off, and so they brought us all in for tightening; they cinched it up right against my skin. I couldn't wear high-top shoes anymore. It dug into me. I still have the scar.”
The permanent impact that methods such as ankle bracelets have on people not only limits their freedom but quite literally leaves a mark on the young person’s body.
The constant use of cruel punishment inflicted on the children inside of the juvenile criminal justice system has lasting effects.
Another reason for why the juvenile criminal justice system is ill suited to being able to resolve crimes is due to the fact that it disproportionately affects people of color.
This shows that even when white and non-white people are at the trial stage of the process, there are often more lenient sentences given to white youth.
Research in 2015 by Vanderbilt Law School Faculty Publications found that examining “the interface between the immigration system and juvenile justice system and its impact on Latino male juveniles reveals how race, lower socioeconomic class and poverty intersect to create disparate treatment within these systems. Alarming statistics demonstrate how Latino boys are increasingly interfacing with the juvenile justice system.”
