Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber shocked fans last night by releasing a song about their relationship – but deleted it hours later. 

The song literally came out of nowhere on Drake's OVO sound radio show. Titled Strong, the duet is a reference to their famous on-again-off-again relationship.

Although the two are no longer together, the lyrics certainly tell of a complicated past as a couple in the spotlight. 

"What should I do? Should I go? Who do I talk to? Nobody knows," sings Bieber. 

Later Selena sings, "Wishing I was better at this damn thing 'cause it's just been too long and I can't change."

It is still unknown if the release was deliberate as it was only briefly accessible before it disappeared.

The Daily Mail reported that the duo have been planning the collaboration for some time now as they felt it would be therapeutic.

Selena recently released her latest Album, Revival, on which her single Good For You shot to number five on the Billboard Hot 100.

Meanwhile, Justin has been teasing his upcoming album, Purpose, which is set to be released on November 13.

Drake has just dropped a new track, and we can't get enough of it.

The rapper has teamed up with Beyoncé for his new song, Can I, two years after the pair first worked together on Bey's own album.

Drake played the track on his OVO Sound radio show on Apple Music's Beats 1 over the weekend, and we can already tell it's going to be a hit.

A leaked, unpolished version of the song first went public back in May, though neither Drake or Beyoncé made any comment at the time.

Though Can I primarily features Drake rapping, it's based around a sample of Beyoncé saying, "Can I baby?" on repeat.

Drake and Beyoncé's work on the 2013 track Mine from Bey's self-titled album got mixed reviews from critics, with one saying the rapper turned an otherwise good song into a "a six-minute slog."

Speaking around the time of the song's release, Drake said he was thrilled to get to work with such a high-profile star.

"I really believe strongly in her talent and her position in our generation," he told Vibe. 

"I think she’s one of the biggest stars ever, but especially for these girls right now. I feel like they need Beyoncé."

The singer came under fire earlier this year when it was revealed she had refused to give any interviews or "answer a direct question" in over a year. 

But Drake's definitely not one of her critics… he's a self-confessed "Beyoncé believer."

Hip-hop couple Nicki Minaj and Meek Mill appear in their first photo shoot together as a couple in the latest edition of GQ. In an interview with the magazine the pair talked about pretty much everything.

Including what it means to be ‘the most controversial couple’ in hip hop. The pair revealed that neither of them feel any fear about burning bridges with other stars, and possible friends, in lieu of supporting one another.

Despite the fact that Nicki has been rocking some serious bling since April the duo denied that they were engaged. Nicki did admit however that their romance really began when Meek was in jail last year. That was when she knew she loved him apparently.

“I saw him going off on Twitter, and I was like, ''Oh man, he needs somebody to, like, make him feel good right now.''

So when I heard he went to jail I was really disappointed. I reached out to his people like, 'Yo, let him know I'm praying for him to come home’,” Nicki explains.

“I definitely think we have a normal relationship off-camera. We're like any other couple in the hood,” Nicki added, pointing out that maybe their successful careers make them slightly different from normal couples.

Discussing their falling out with other artists Nicki simply said: “I'm very happy I tweeted about the VMAs, because Anaconda had too much of a cultural impact to not be up.  Taylor Swift called and we're good now. She didn't see the bigger picture. We talked. We got over it.”

Meanwhile she admitted that she may not always agree with Meek and his feud with Drake, but she will tolerate it. She added that “Meek Mill don’t regret nothing.”

So Drake probably won’t be having a heart-to-heart with Meek just like Taylor and his girlfriend then.

You can now add restauranteur to Drake's CV. 

Early this week, the 28-year-old rapper had a low-key celebration for the opening of his new restaurant, Fring. 

He opened the restaurant in his hometown of Toronto and invited his BFF Serena Williams, Jada Pinkett Smith and Jaden Smith. 

The menu for his restaurant is still under wraps, but the star did partner up with chef Susur Lee, of the restaurant Lee, Bent and Luckee. 

He also hired past contestants of US TV shows Iron Chef and Top Chef Masters to join the venture, so the food must be good! 

Drake has been a friend of Susur's sons Kai and Levi Bent-Lee for a while, which kind of explains the partnership, and according to Fashion Magazine, the menu will feature Asian hints as per Susur's signature, mixed with high-end snacks.

Both Drake and Lorde were in New York to enjoy one of the most fashionable events of the year. While many people were concerned about Lorde’s eye which was looking quite red and swollen and generally painful, other eagle-eyes fans noticed something far more exciting.

When she and Drake posed for a photo at Kanye’s show, music fans around the world got very excited.

Then they realised what Drake had captioned the image:

“Wifey (Low Key,” and some fabulous diamond ring emoji’s were enough to send fans into overdrive.

The fact that Lorde already has a song called Tennis Court, which we know is a place where Drake spends a lot of time, only got people more excited because clearly this means they have some common interests.

She then of course responded to the excitement of Drake’s caption with a cute little tweet of her own. She seemed pretty pleased about Drake’s affection for her, although we don’t know who wouldn’t be.

Serena Williams more than likely. Serena and Drake have been spotted looking mighty cosy out and about of late. The Canadian rapper has also been on hand to show Serena support at her last few tennis tournaments. The pair did cause quite a stir at Wimbledon.

We just hope Drake doesn’t caption the next post with a lady friend “bae” because apparently Serena didn’t appreciate his term of endearment for Anna Wintour. The comment has since been deleted but it made the rounds earlier this week:

Tennis fans were on the edge of their seats today as US heroine Serena Williams stepped onto the court at the US Open.

The 33-year-old was hoping for her 22nd major title win but lost out to Italian player Roberta Vinci, who beat her 2-6, 6-4, 6-4. Serena left the court immediately after the match, not stopping to speak with reporters.

A win today would have meant a Tennis Grand Slam for Serena, who won the Australian Open in January, the French Open in June and Wimbledon in July. 

Had she won, it would have been the first Grand Slam in the sport in 27 years, but sadly it wasn't to be.

Speaking to reporters after the game, underdog Roberta said the win was an "incredible moment" for her.

She seemed elated throughout the match, reportedly shouting "WHAT ABOUT ME?" to the crowd after scoring a point against Serena.

Sitting in the crowd to offer support was Serena's rumoured boyfriend, rapper Drake.

The couple have long been thought of as more than just friends – in fact, back in 2011 they were spotted kissing at the Wimbledon clubhouse following Serena's victory over Victoria Azarenka in the tournament's quarter finals. 

Four years on, Drake attended several of Serena's Wimbledon matches in July, hanging out with her sister Venus courtside plus John Legend and wife Chrissy Teigen.

And just last month the pair were spotted "making out" at trendy Cincinnati eatery Sotto, much to the surprise of their fellow diners.

Drake and Serena had a private room at the back of the restaurant and couldn't keep their hands off each other, according to onlookers.

There'll be a commiseration meal tonight we reckon…

Ever since Drake was pictured cheering on tennis pro Serena Williams at Wimbledon back in July, rumours have been swirling that the pair are an in fact an item. And if this latest update is anything to go by, they most definitely are.

The lovebirds were spotted "making out" at trendy Cincinnati eatery Sotto last night, much to the surprise of their fellow diners. Drake and Serena had a private room at the back of the restaurant and couldn't keep their hands off each other, according to onlookers.

Photos published by TMZ showed the rumoured couple sitting across from one another, before Serena moved to Drake's side of the table and sat on his lap.

He even took to Instagram to congratulate Serena publicly following her Women's Singles' 2015 win, her fourth major title in a row this season.

"Showtime Champ. A big plate for all that food you ate at Wimbledon!" he wrote, posting a picture of the tennis star holding her trophy.

Drake was previously linked to Puerto Rican model and Instagram sensation Bernice Burgos, with the pair pictured looking VERY cosy on vacation in Australia together back in March. Plus, who can forget his shudder-inducing on stage smooch with Madonna just a few months ago?

We sure hope Serena is a better kisser…

It hasn’t been a good week for Nicki Minaj and rapper Meek Mills.

In case you hadn’t heard; Meek Mills attempted to call out fellow rapper Drake on Twitter recently and it didn’t go very well. He accused Drake of not writing his own songs.

Drake’s huge fan base however were very quick to respond and they were ruthless about the whole scenario.

Meek Mills other half, Nicki, was also getting a lot of heat from social media users who were fast to drag the hip-hop star into the drama.  Which is all very awkward because Ms Minaj and Drake are pretty much celeb BFFs who have worked together successfully multiple times.

However, it looks like Meek is none to impressed with Nicki’s lack of response to the feud he now has with Drake, and Drake’s fans.

That is possibly why reports are now saying that Nicki has put an end to their relationship. Media TakeOut apparently spoke to Nicki’s close friend who said:

“It’s complicated. I think they took their relationship too far, too fast.”

While many of Nicki’s fans might be relieved to hear the news, we don’t think this is exactly the way Meek was hoping his week was going to end.

Oh dear, another tragic ending to another celebrity Twitter feud, when will it end?

Hey, we've all been there: we turn up to a social-event, only to realise our ex is en route – or worse still, has already arrived. 

Cue a speedy dash for the nearest exit that would make Usain Bolt proud. 

So it was somewhat refreshing to see that Kanye West is much like the rest of us: well, he certainly made a run for it when his former girlfriend, Amber Rose, arrived at a party he had been enjoying.

Kanye, who recently celebrated his 38th birthday, was seen at Drake’s celebrity-packed pool party without his pregnant wife Kim Kardashian.

According to TMZ, Yeezy was only at the party for about 40 minutes when the DJ announced that Amber Rose was in the house. Ouch.

Sources close to the rapper say he REALLY didn’t want to bump into her, or even worse, be photographed with her.

It is reported that Kanye waited for ‘his boys’ to pinpoint where Amber was… and then made a quick exit in the other direction.

The exes were only recently at war on Twitter: Amber began tweeting abuse about the Kardashians, and in return Kanye hit back with a dig about Amber’s hygiene.

Former couple Kanye and Amber have a lot of history and did not end their relationship on good terms. In fact, Amber has even accused Kanye of cheating on her with Kim in the past.

Amber Rose attended the party with none other than Blac Chyna, a close friend of hers who is involved in her own on-going social media battle with the Kardashian-Jenner clan.

Blac has spoken out against Kylie Jenner, who is currently dating her ex Tyga, on numerous occasions 

Amber herself has reportedly gotten in on the action too, blasting Tyga for dating Kylie, who’s only 17.

A source told Hollywoodlife.com: “Kanye hates Amber with a passion and that disdain extends to Blac Chyna as well.”

This source also explains that “Kanye didn’t want to see those girls at all. He avoided them like the plague. He was uncomfortable the whole time because he knew he was breathing the same air as them.

“He knows they will do anything for attention and he wasn’t about to give it to them or even stoop to their incredibly low level,”

 

King of pop in never never land…

The Nicki Minaj fandom went into meltdown last week when the singer posted a picture of her hand sporting a VERY flashy heart shaped diamond ring on her engagement finger.

The singer only split from her boyfriend of ten years, Safaree Samuels, shortly before Christmas but it looks like she is moving on quickly.

Rumours of a new romance with rapper Meek Mill began circulating at the beginning of this year, and things are already serious for the pair.

Although neither Nicki or Meek have formally confirmed their engagement despite seeming smitten on Twitter, it seems they don't have to now as Drake has done it for them,

The Started From The Bottom rapper brought Nicki on stage for a surprise appearance during his Coachella set last night, and said a bit too much…

"The love of my life,” he told the audience. “I love this girl right here, we family forever. Congratulations and all that.” TMZ shared Drake's revelation in a video posted earlier today:

Nicki didn't seem too bothered by Drake spilling the beans – guess it saved her the bother!

Rapper Drake was left a little shell shocked on stage on Sunday night when Madonna decided to make out with him on stage with no warning whatsoever.

Drake was joined by Madonna during his set at Coachella, and after her performance had finished, she pulled him in for an intense kiss that went on a little too long for everyone's liking… including Drake's.

Pictures of the rapper wiping his mouth and looking disgusted after the kiss seemed to confirm that he was just as grossed out as we all were by Madonna's tongue-fest… but Drake himself says differently.

Breaking his silence about the kiss one day on, Drake took to Instagram to let fans know he was a-okay about it all, posting a picture of the kiss and writing, "Don't misinterpret my shock!! I got to make out with the queen Madonna and I feel 100 '100' about that forever. Thank you @madonna"

As for Madonna, she seemed less than happy about the negative reaction to her on-stage antics, posting a telling quote on her own Instagram page:

In the mood to be extremely grossed out this Monday morning? We have just the thing.

Singer Madonna is currently promoting her new album Rebel Heart, and it seems she'll stop at nothing to get her name in the media – including kissing unsuspecting young rappers on stage.

The star joined Drake during his set at Coachella last night, and obviously decided his performance needed some spicing up. After belting out a three-song medley while Drake looked on, the 56-year-old grabbed the rapper as he sat on stage and began kissing him.

The shock kiss went on for at least three seconds, and judging by Drake's face as he wiped his mouth afterwards, he definitely wasn't expecting it:

Shudder.

As for Madge, the mum-of-four seemed happy enough with her decision, taking to Instagram just hours ago to post a picture of the kiss with the message, "No caption necessary ………. @coachella#bestnight #bigasmadonna #bitchimmadonna."

 

No caption necessary ……….@coachella. #bestnight #bigasmadonna #bitchimmadonna
