Let’s set the scene. Quenlin Blackwell, content creator, chaos agent, self-appointed personal chef to the stars, invited Afrobeats sensation Ayra Starr into her kitchen for the latest episode of Feeding Starving Celebrities. Simple enough, right? Wrong. What followed was 55 minutes and 21 seconds of pure, unfiltered mayhem that had the comments section losing its entire mind. For the uninitiated, Feeding Starving Celebrities is Quen’s signature YouTube series where she cooks for celebrity guests with her trademark wit, zero filter, and the kind of energy that makes you forget you’re technically watching a cooking show. Past guests have included the likes of Lil Nas X, Charli XCX, and Halle Bailey. But nothing, and we mean nothing, could have prepared us for what Ayra Starr brought to this kitchen. The plan was jollof rice. A whole, beautiful, aromatic pot of jollof rice. The Nigerian superstar looked that plan dead in the eyes and said, “How about we make yam and eggs”. YAMS. AND. EGGS. No surprise there, as everyone on the internet knows that’s Ayra Starr’s favourite meal. Did they end up making the yams and eggs or the jollof rice? Grab your plate (or your imaginary jollof rice) and catch […] The post Ayra Starr Had Quenlin Blackwell’s Kitchen in Absolute Shambles — and We Watched Every Second appeared first on BN Style.

Fashion’s most theatrical night of the year has arrived. The 2026 Met Gala takes place on Monday, May 4, at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, and this year’s edition is shaping up to be one of the most talked-about in recent memory, for reasons that go well beyond the outfits. The Theme: Fashion Is Art The dress code for this year’s star-studded fundraiser is “Fashion Is Art,” in conjunction with the spring exhibition’s theme, “Costume Art.” The exhibition is inspired by “the centrality of the dressed body in the museum’s vast collections,” according to Andrew Bolton, the curator in charge. Guests are encouraged to interpret the theme broadly, think Mondrian-inspired silhouettes, Schiaparelli surrealism, or any look that blurs the line between couture and canvas. We particularly cannot wait to see the African artists that will “eat this theme up”! This year carries particular institutional weight: the 2026 Gala inaugurates the Condé M. Nast Galleries, a nearly 12,000-square-foot space adjacent to the Great Hall, which Bolton described as “a huge moment” that will be “transformative for our department.” The exhibition pairs garments from the Met’s collection with artworks to reveal the inherent relationship between clothing and […] The post Everything You Need to Know About the Met Gala 2026 appeared first on BN Style.

SCHICK Magazine has announced the launch of its debut publication, SCHICK Youth Magazine, and they are not easing into it quietly. The inaugural cover star is Qing Madi,  Nigeria’s fast-rising singer-songwriter, and the first issue has been fittingly titled The Audacity Issue. It is a bold choice for a bold launch. Qing Madi, known for her distinct sound and disarming emotional honesty, is exactly the kind of artist a magazine called SCHICK Youth would want to open with. She represents something that feels genuinely new in the Nigerian music conversation: a young woman who is building a career on her own terms, without apology, and without performing a version of herself that the industry finds more comfortable. In the defining feature, she reflects on her rapid ascent, her creative independence, and the emotional honesty that underpins everything she makes. She also says some things worth sitting with. On success, she offers a quiet reframe: “I’ve had to unlearn that success is noise or validation. Success, for me now, feels like peace, like creating something honest and still feeling like myself after it’s out in the world.” On how she knows when a song is ready: “I know a song is […] The post Qing Madi Is SCHICK Youth Magazine’s First-Ever Cover Star, and She Has Something to Say appeared first on BN Style.
