Eve is the blueprint for Black girl evolution. And this week, she reminded us how fly life can be when you choose joy, peace, and a little bit of luxury.
The Philly-bred rapper, actress, and style icon is celebrating 11 years of marriage to her husband, British entrepreneur Maximillion Cooper. And if 'glowing in grace' had a face, it would be Eve's.
In other words, Eve is the epitome of soft girl life.

She took to social media on June 14, sharing a stunning black-and-white wedding portrait of her and her husband. The elegant photo lovingly displays a union that some once doubted.
Maximillion shared a post recognizing their anniversary as well.
Eve has opened up about the skepticism she faced for marrying across racial lines, becoming a bonus mom to multiple stepkids, and packing up her American roots to start over across the pond. As recently as 2024, a picture of Eve and her family went viral during the holidays.
But Eve remains unbothered and in her bag.
In an interview about her memoir, Who's That Girl , she recently said that she is in her 'soft life era.' And in a previous conversation with Essence , she shared that being with her husband, she had to 'learn to be happy' and urged women to find happiness.
Sis is flourishing – and we love to see it.
Lately, fans have seen more of the femcee in the public eye. Last fall, she also served as a guest lecturer at NYU. She dropped her memoir, and the mommy-preneur continues to share sweet moments with her son Wilde Wolf on Instagram.
In May, she joined Nelly on a global tour celebrating the 25th anniversary of his debut album, Country Grammar . She also popped up with none other than Usher during a London stop on his tour, rocking a silver leotard and reminding everyone exactly why she is still that girl.
With each appearance, her hair, beauty, and fashion remain unmatched. No one can rock a 40-inch blonde like Eve. Her body is tea, and her skin is giving the fountain of youth. A Philly girl at heart, the 'Love Is Blind' rapper remains edgy and elevated in her lewks.
One thing Eve is going to do is put that ish on!
In an industry that often demands a lot from stars – especially Black women – Eve stands out. Happy 11th wedding anniversary to the queen who taught us how to live loud and live well.

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A fashion expert on X by the name of Derek Guy has given his take on the attire of Formula One drivers at the F1 movie premiere in New York. The social media thread breaks down the look of each driver who was present in a group photo. The F1 movie is set to be released on June 25 (June 27 in North America), and the majority F1 team principals, drivers, including the co-producer Lewis Hamilton, were present in formal attire alongside the rest of the movie crew. Derek Guy stated on X that he reviewed the F1 drivers' outfits in response to fan demand. He said: (L-R) US actor and film producer Brad Pitt, British formula 1 driver and co-producer Lewis Hamilton and British actor Damson Idris attend the world premiere of "F1" at Times Square in New York on June...

Since I only talk about famous people, I will do a thread. 🧵" People keep asking me to do a thread breaking down why these suits don't look great. I gather that these are famous, very well accomplished F1 drivers (I don't know these people). Since I only talk about famous people, I will do a thread. 🧵 — derek guy (@dieworkwear) June 17, 2025 He added: "Please note nothing in this thread is meant to diminish the men in these clothes. If anything, it's the people who dressed them that failed them. I am only talking about the clothes. Hopefully, by pointing out these issues, you will learn something for when you're shopping." Starting with Liam Lawson, Derek Guy pointed out the missing tie. He wrote: "A pinstripe suit with a white business shirt cries out for tie. If you don't want to wear a tie, then you need a more casual shirt or a more casual suit. Additionally, the shoes are too chunky for this outfit." A pinstripe suit with a white business shirt cries out for tie. If you don't want to wear a tie, then you need a more casual shirt or a more casual suit. Additionally, the shoes are too chunky for this outfit. — derek guy (@dieworkwear) June 17, 2025 He added: "But the biggest issue is that there's something wrong with the tailoring. It's very easy to spot this on a patterned fabric because the vertical lines should run 'true,' which is to say straight up and down. See how these lines are swinging away from his body." Next on the list was Lawson's former teammate, Yuki Tsunoda. Derek Guy wrote: "I commend this person for trying to be adventurous but I just don't think it's working on him. The outfit is just too large. The proportions on the jacket are also strange [too truncated at the bottom]. But cool that he tried something different." I commend this person for trying to be adventurous but I just don't think it's working on him. The outfit is just too large. The proportions on the jacket are also strange (too truncated at the bottom). But cool that he tried something different. — derek guy (@dieworkwear) June 17, 2025 Alpine's Pierre Gasly was the best-dressed driver in the group, but a simple feedback never hurt anyone. Derek Guy pointed out: "The best of the group but the jacket is too short and the pants are too slim, causing them to catch on his legs. I think he would look better in a longer jacket and slightly fuller pants, as well as shirt collar points that reach his lapels."

He wrote: "Shoulders strike me as too wide and trousers are too long. This can be a style [1980s Armani-esque]. I just don't feel it's working here. I think this would look better with narrower shoulders, slightly trimmer pants, and less break." Shoulders strike me as too wide and trousers are too long. This can be a style (1980s Armani-esque). I just don't feel it's working here. I think this would look better with narrower shoulders, slightly trimmer pants, and less break. — derek guy (@dieworkwear) June 17, 2025 Racing Bulls' Isack Hadjar had more points to take back, including one on his footwear. He wrote: "Personally don't like this silhouette and really dislike the shape of the lapels. Bottom button shouldn't be fastened. Would look better with dress shoes, not sneakers." Personally don't like this silhouette and really dislike the shape of the lapels. Bottom button shouldn't be fastened. Would look better with dress shoes, not sneakers. — derek guy (@dieworkwear) June 17, 2025 Derek Guy then critiqued Carlos Sainz and Gabriel Bortoleto. He wrote: "Both pairs of pants are too slim. Second person's jacket is too short. Both would look better with traditional dress shoes. Personally dislike luxury sneakers like Zegna's. Minimalist sneakers that cost $1,000 are inherently corny." Both pairs of pants are too slim. Second person's jacket is too short. Both would look better with traditional dress shoes. Personally dislike luxury sneakers like Zegna's. Minimalist sneakers that cost $1,000 are inherently corny. — derek guy (@dieworkwear) June 17, 2025 Lastly, the fashion expert pointed out that Hamilton, Brad Pitt, and Damson Idris were well-dressed. However, he admitted that they were mostly dressed by reputable stylists. He wrote: "Some people will say I'm old fashioned. But I think these three guys at the premiere looked great. And look: their outfits follow basic tailoring principles: jackets bisect halfway from collar to floor; jacket silhouette flows into trousers. Outfits don't look old fashioned." He added: "I assume the three men above were helped by higher-powered stylists. Perhaps the F1 drivers were just put in branded clothes. IMO, if you are a celebrity, you should turn down brand deals. Don't wear clothes for money [you don't need more money]. Instead, hire a tailor."

Cyprus' lyrical duelists spit fierce rhymes as they battle it out to the licks of a fiddle
LARNACA, Cyprus -- Lyrical duelists in Cyprus spit rhymes in head-to-head contests, keeping alive a tradition known as 'tsiattista' that emerged centuries before the likes of Kendrick Lamar and Drake. Konstantinos Christou Grilias and Adamos Peratikos are among a new group of poets in this Mediterranean country who battle it out live on stage to the rhythms of the lute and fiddle. The battles are fierce, but you won't find any Kendrick-Drake style beef. Tsiattista made UNESCO's list of Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2011. The similarities with American hip-hop diss songs and battle rap are many: two duelists using their wits and turns of phrase to boast how superior they are, giving opponents a schooling in an onslaught of lyrical beatdowns. It's complete with assertive gestures and the hands-behind-the-back patience of the poet waiting to pounce. 'Even if you'd been a paramedic, I'd send you to hospital with a heart attack,' Peratikos told one adversary — a line with more snap in the Cypriot Greek dialect, whose syntax is akin to ancient Greek. Grilias dissed his opponent as a lightweight and a laughingstock. The audience of hundreds along a seaside promenade murmured in approval. Tsiattista battles which have been around since at least the end of the 19th century, are undergoing a bit of a revival, thanks to performers like Grilias and Peratikos. 'We urge other kids who like it to come along to safeguard this institution,' said Peratikos, 41. 'The goal isn't about awards, the goal is to keep tradition alive.' The 44-year-old Grilias said he's never really delved into the world of Kendrick Lamar or Jay-Z. 'Honestly, I've never listened to rappers. They told me that they battle in their own language, in their own way,' Grilias said as he prepared for a tsiattista duel at the peak of a festival for the Orthodox Christian Pentecost. 'Rappers don't know where Cyprus is," he added. The new group of performers, known as tsiattistaes, started to replace the older generation about 15 years ago at the premier competition in Larnaca during the annual Pentecost festival known as Kataklysmos, said ethnomusicologist Nicoletta Demetriou, who is director of the island nation's Music Archive. The new generation includes women, though few participate because of lingering social exclusion, Demetriou said. The current tsiattista format of a two-verse rhyme with a total of 15 syllables was developed in the late 18th to early 19th century, evolving from the introduction of the rhyming verse to the Greek-speaking world in the 15th and 16th centuries, Demetriou said. It draws on a tradition of poets matching wits from the times of Pericles in ancient Greece. The structure and musical accompaniment are simple, so that the rhymes are clear and understandable for both the audience and the adversary. Contests can address a range of themes, but the underlying premise is to determine who's the best at the diss. 'It's usually a fight, meaning 'I'd clobber you, kill you, bury you,' Grilias said. 'But I believe the public likes more a bit of humor, too.' For contestants, it's about who shows up ready, can stay cool and make the fewest mistakes in front of a crowd. 'Truth is, you're stressed, you're under pressure," Grilias said, and 'the person who can best handle this has the advantage.' One useful strategy is guessing how to get into your opponent's way of thinking, predicting possible responses to your lines, Peratikos said. He dismissed AI technology as incapable of coming up with effective rhymes in the Cypriot Greek dialect. 'There are words that we've heard but we don't even know, so there's no way artificial intelligence does,' Peratikos said. At the end of a long night of battling, Grilias and Peratikos finished fourth and fifth, respectively. A judging panel composed of men and women determined the winners. The two contestants took their places in stride. 'We're all friends, that's what's important,' Grilias said.
