Julia Fox and Ye attend the Kenzo Fall/Winter 2022/2023 show as part of Paris Fashion Week on Jan. 23, 2022 in Paris.
Victor Boyko/GI For KenzoGiving a name to their love. On Monday (Jan. 24), Julia Fox took to social media to label her relationship with Ye with a couple-y name.
“Juliye,” she captioned a photo of the pair with a single black heart emoji. In the snap, she and the artist formerly known as Kanye West wear complementary leather looks by Schiaparelli. While the Uncut Gems actress is in a structural leather jacket, matching black leggings and giant earrings with heavy black eye makeup, the rapper’s face is obscured by one of his favorite Donda-era full face masks.
Even before revealing the portmanteau, Fox insisted on her podcast Forbidden Fruits that she’s not dating Kim Kardashian’s estranged husband for fame, clout, money or attention.
The lovebirds are currently in Paris, after the superstar whisked his new girlfriend away on a whirlwind weekend trip filled with designer fittings, shows at Paris Men’s Fashion Week and even their official red-carpet debut as a couple ahead of the KENZO runway presentation.
Meanwhile, Ye was recently announced as a headliner for Coachella’s upcoming 2022 return after two years of the Indio, Calif.-based festival being canceled due to COVID-19. The complete lineup also includes Harry Styles, Billie Eilish, Megan Thee Stallion, Doja Cat, Phoebe Bridgers and the return of Swedish House Mafia to the Empire Polo Grounds for the first time since 2012.
West’s hotly anticipated three-part documentary jeen-yuhs: A Kanye Trilogy also premiered at the Sundance Film Festival on Sunday night, but not before the rapper demanded final approval of edits ahead of its Netflix debut on Feb. 16.

A$AP Rocky has revealed that it took years of persistence before Tim Burton agreed to create the cover artwork for his upcoming album, Don’t Be Dumb. The rapper reflected on how the unlikely collaboration finally came together during a recent appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Monday.
Going into detail about the process, Rocky confessed that he “basically had to stalk and harass him for a few years” before things clicked. He explained, “I reached out and told him I would love to hang out, play him some vibes and just connect. I ended up going to Malibu while he was on a break, and he was feeling it. I played him an early version of the album and he really liked it. That’s when I asked, ‘Do you think you might want to do the illustration for this?’ He was open to it, but then suddenly he had Wednesday and Beetlejuice 2 going on. I realized this was going to take a lot longer than I thought.”
A$AP Rocky went on to describe a moment that really stuck with him during that visit. “While I was there, I noticed a sketch sitting on the table and asked if he drew it,” he said. “He told me that every morning he and his daughter work on drawings together. He starts one, then she comes in and finishes it or changes it. It’s something they practice daily. I saw it as their bond, and to me, that felt priceless.”
On Tuesday, A$AP Rocky also released a double music video for his tracks “WHISKEY” and “BLACK DEMARCO.” Tim Burton appears in the visual and contributed multiple illustrations that tie into the project.
Alongside the release of the “WHISKEY” and “BLACK DEMARCO” video, Rocky officially unveiled the Don’t Be Dumb World Tour. The run will include 42 dates across North America, Europe, and the United Kingdom, with shows scheduled throughout 2026.
