Ethan Shanfeld Music superstar Drake is feuding with the “internet’s busiest music nerd,” YouTube music critic Anthony Fantano. On Thursday night, Drake leaked his own direct messages to Fantano on his Instagram story, which read: “Your existence is a light 1. And the 1 is cause you are alive,” a reference to Fantano’s tradition of reviewing albums on a scale from one to 10. Drake continued: “And cause you somehow wifed a Black girl. I’m feeling a light to decent 1 on your existence.” While Fantano scored Drake’s latest album “Honestly, Nevermind” an official “Not Good” out of 10 back in June, it appears the artist’s DMs were unprovoked, as there are no prior messages between the two.

It appears Fantano was baiting the rapper to expose himself. On Instagram Live after Drake posted the screenshot, Fantano said: “Essentially what happened is that for reasons unknown to me, Drake was in his feelings, as he does tend to be.” Fantano said he got a DM request from Drake, which he described as “a bit of a diss… a salty little DM.

I’m not 18 years of age. That’s kinda weird… This man is familiar enough with me to know my rating system, which is kind of odd. Seems a little obsessed.” Fantano continued: “This is why he has ghost writers. Because this is the

Fans of Married at First Sight UK have been left baffled over Chanita Stephenson's dress, with one person even labelling it as "magic".The 29 year old donned a metallic satin strappy dress during tonight's episode of the show, but it appeared to be an optical illusion as, inside of the venue, it looked green, whilst outside, it seemed to completely change colour to a deep blue. Fans were baffled at the apparent change, rushing to Twitter to comment, as one person wrote: "Chanita’s dress is properly f*****g w me, like is it a massive continuity error or is it genuinely different under different lights." Another tweeted: "Why is Chanita's dress green when she is inside but blue when she is interviewed outside? #MAFSUK " A third wrote: "Wait! Does Chanita’s dress change colour???"
