Less than 24 hours after announcing she was splitting from her husband, Cardi B was spotted Wednesday night par tying at 24/7 ultra-club E11EVEN MIAMI, sporting long, rainbow streaked hair and a skin-tight black dress. She grabbed the microphone and sang along when the DJ played her hits, including “Bodak Yellow” and “Drip,” which features her ex, Offset. G-Eazy and Travis Scott also gave separate performances at the all-night club over the weekend. Neither Kylie Jenner nor Kanye West were with Scott when he performed on top of the DJ booth and asked the crowd to put away their cell phones so they could enjoy the moment. And at the private upstairs club at Casa Tua, Basel regular Leonardo DiCaprio hung out with U2’s Bono at a late-night karaoke party where Paris Hilton and Serena Wil liams danced to Beyonce’s “Formation.” Downstairs at the exclusive Italian restau rant, Princess Eugenie hosted an intimate seated dinner for the London-based art gal lery Hauser & Wirth where she serves as director. On Thursday night, Jennifer Lopez was spotted getting cozy with boyfriend Alex Rodriguez at Prime 112 restaurant. And over at the former Versace Mansion, Creed 2 star Tessa Thompson hosted a party to announce the finalists of Bombay Sapphire Artisan Series’ annual arts competition. Guests included BlacKkKlansman actress Laura Harrier, singer Teyana Taylor and former NBA champion Kevin Garnett. The girls did a quick photo shoot in Donatella Versace’s former quarters. Art Basel Miami Beach, the prestigious extension of the annual contemporary art fair in Basel, Switzerland, didn’t officially open until Thursday, but the fair has become so popular that it’s spawned dozens of others around Miami along with star-studded par ties days in advance. One of the biggest draws of the week was at the RC Cola Factory in Wynwood, where rappers Kanye West and Lil Wayne gave surprise performances to honor late rapper XXXTentacion for the posthumous release of his album Skin.

SINGLE COPY The Times is available at retail stores, newspaper racks and at The Times for $1.00 Mon.-Sat. and $2.00 on Sun. ARIES (March 21 -April 19). You are creative and will have ideas about new things to try. You’re also, unlike many in your group, bold enough to pitch them. You’ll start the ball roll ing. Others will come forward after you do. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Don’t fuss or hesitate over today’s opportunities. They will be like fresh toast. Get it while it’s hot. Otherwise, it will harden as it cools, making each bite a crumbly mess. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’ll be lucky today, although don’t expect to think so until weeks later when you look back on the events of Dec. 10 and realize their role in landing you in a position of good for tune. CANCER (June 22-July 22). The day’s work will be a little like putting a stylish outfit together. It starts with wearing every thing you think will work. Then you’ll change out of different elements. And finally, you’ll strip away everything superflu ous. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The same force of attraction that shapes the swirling universe at large is at the heart of all you create in your personal realm. Careful, though, as attraction can also cause greed and jeal ousy. Monitor your attractions. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The situation today is something like a marching band in which more than half the players are on key and in time. The ones who are off sort of make it a messy show, but it still, more or less, sounds like music. LIBRA (Sept. 23-0ct. 23). You don’t want the same thing as the others, and for this reason, you’ll find life a lot easierto manage. No lines, no inflated costs — you just go straight to the source and plunk down the money. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Make it brief. Then you’ll be listened to. They may not un derstand it, because the spirit of brevity leaves much unex plained, but it’s better to have attention and questions than to have no audience. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Imagine a world in which you spend your days very dif ferently than you’re spending them now. This thought exer cise holds a drop of enlighten ment if you go deep enough into it. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Maybe it takes a degree of education to bandy about high-flown statements, but ev eryone knows that education is not intelligence. Today’s best reason will come plain-clothed. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Instead of thinking of your failed projects as mistakes, think of them as school proj ects in the classroom of life. Generosity abounds from the standpoint of learning. Surely, you’ve earned many an A. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You’re feeling sort of quiet, observant and reflective today. It’s comfortable for you, as well as being a good look for you. One caution: People will proj ect their hopes and wishes into the space you’re holding.
