Dionne Warwick Doesn’t Watch Just Anything!
Dionne Warwick hopped on social media recently to ask for movie and show recommendations while she recovers from emergency leg surgery—but made it very clear one show won’t be making the cut. The shade was light, but it definitely landed. While she didn’t go into detail about the procedure, fans are sending love and well-wishes for a smooth recovery. As for ‘Emily in Paris?’ Dionne didn’t spill the tea on why it’s a no for her, but one thing about Ms. Warwick? She’s gonna keep it cute, classy, and just the right amount of petty. Now somebody send Auntie some bangers to binge!
“As most of you may know, I’ve had to cancel a few shows due to emergency leg surgery. I’m doing okay, do not worry! However, I need some show/movie recommendations while on the mend. Not Emily in Paris. Love you all,” the icon shared to X.

Dionne Warwick Stay Steppin’ On Necks
The internet was gagged, back in May, when Ms. Dionne Warwick herself popped out on X to clear something up! A viral tweet from [Darius Amore] had folks thinking she was out here hitting the DC Pride stage in a sparkly silver dress, blue coat, and knee-high boots—very much giving diva energy. The post read, “DC Pride booking Dionne Warwick for Pride is kind of iconic idk,” with Dionne’s classic hit ‘Walk On By’ playing over the clip. The crowd was eating it UP, and to be fair, LeToya Luckett‘s short blonde bob had folks doing a double take—it was giving signature Dionne, okay! But Auntie said hold up, let’s not get it twisted!
