Lil Wayne reportedly pointed an assault rifle at his bodyguard following an altercation at his Hidden Hills home, according to TMZ. 

Law enforcement is reportedly looking into a dispute that happened over the weekend at Lil Wayne’s mansion. Apparently, the rapper pointed an AR-15 assault rifle at one of his bodyguards after suspecting the man of secretly taking pictures of him and leaking them to the media. Wayne reportedly told his security guard to leave his home, but the guard went to the bathroom first. After he got out, that’s reportedly when Wayne brandished a gun. The guard reportedly escaped to the gated community’s guard shack, where he called the police.

The report notes that Wayne is denying that this even happened, and one source claims that Wayne doesn’t even have any guns. When cops arrived on the scene, Wayne was no longer there.

It’s worth noting that the police were reportedly doubtful of the security guard’s full story, but they are investigating the matter. The guard reportedly did not have any physical marks on his body from the altercation and he told cops that he didn’t want to press charges.

As the situation develops, we will keep you updated.

Gervonta Davis is one of the best young fighters on the planet right now and at a record of 26-0, fans are calling him the next Floyd Mayweather. Last night, Davis had a rare Sunday night fight where he took on the likes of Isaac Cruz. Prior to this fight, many fans were laughing at Cruz as he seemed to be a huge underdog. In the end, however, Cruz turned out to be Davis’ toughest opponent to date as the fight went all 12 rounds before ending in a unanimous decision that allowed Davis to retain his Lightweight title.

Fans noticed that Davis was simply not himself throughout the fight, and it can all be chalked up to the fact that he hurt his hand in the sixth round. According to a report from ESPN, Davis spoke on the injury after the fight, noting that it was very hard for him to do anything significant with his damaged knuckles.

“I hurt my hand so I couldn’t get him out of there,” Davis explained. “He’s a shorter fighter so I was throwing down on the top of his head. I hit him with my knuckle and messed it up. I hurt my hand in the sixth round.”

While it wasn’t the knockout he was hoping for, Davis still showed off his ability to remain composed in the ring, which is a good sign for him moving forward. He remains one of the best in the world, and his next opponent is going to be seeing a motivated Tank, very soon.

The official description for the upcoming movie explains that the story will  “transport Brooklyn’s full-time, friendly neighborhood Spider-Man across the Multiverse to join forces with Gwen Stacy and a new team of Spider-People to face off with a villain more powerful than anything they have ever encountered.”

“Miles’ story is an epic,” writer/producers Phil Lord and Chris Miller recently told Entertainment Weekly. “We wrote what we thought the story needed to be, and to our surprise we realized it was two movies instead of one. We’re working on them both as we speak. Part Two will be out sometime in 2023. We will sleep again in 2024.”

Check out the new trailer for Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse (Part One) below. The movie will hit theaters in October 2022.

He continued: “Bella and Story: I want you to know that your dad was far from perfect. I made my fair share of mistakes on and off the field. But through it all, I tried to do the right thing. I found something I was passionate about and I worked harder than anyone else. I didn’t take any shortcuts to achieve it.

At the ceremony, which was held in September, Hannah did not appear pregnant, leading to speculation that the couple used a surrogate.

George Clooney says he once turned down $35 million that was offered to him for a commercial that was shot during the span of a single day. Clooney explained that he felt an ethical conflict working with the unnamed airline.

When asked whether he thinks he has “enough money,” he revealed that there have been times he’s turned down massive paydays.

“I was offered $35M for one day’s work for an airline commercial, but I talked to Amal [Clooney, the human rights lawyer he married in 2014] about it and we decided it’s not worth it. It was [associated with] a country that, although it’s an ally, is questionable at times, and so I thought: ‘Well, if it takes a minute’s sleep away from me, it’s not worth it,’” he explained.

Clooney has done plenty of ads throughout his career, including a for Nespresso, which reportedly netted him as much as $40 million.

Elsewhere in the interview, Clooney explained why he isn’t acting as much these days: “In general, there just aren’t that many great parts–and, look, I don’t have to act. My wife and I had this conversation when I turned 60 this summer. I said: ‘I can still bounce around pretty good, and we both love what we do. But we gotta make sure we don’t book ourselves silly.’ So, part of it is just us making sure we live our lives.”

Kelly and Fox’s nail artist, Brittney Boyce, spoke on Instagram about how she put together the look: “After the nails [were] dry, I used a nail piercer to pierce both of their pinky nails and added rings to them, so that I could attach two chains to them, so that they were chained together.”

In May, Boyce spoke with Page Six about what its like working with Kelly and Fox.

“They like to match … [it’s] their thing,” she told the outlet in May, “He’s one of my favorite clients. I get a lot of people that just ask me, ‘What’s in?’ and then I tell them and then we do it. But for him, I really have to think ahead, because he is so artistic and he has so many great ideas.”

She added: “It’s just really nice to have [someone] that pushes me beyond, that I can be more edgy and creative with.”

Styles P says that he had the hardest verse on DMX’s track, “Blackout,” a Swizz Beatz-produced classic featuring Jadakiss, Styles P and Sheek Louch of The Lox as well as JAY-Z. For years, fans have debated who has the most memorable contribution.

“Fuck you mean ‘What’s my favorite?’ My verse, n-gga! I don’t even care what nobody else say [laughs],” Styles P said in a recent interview with HipHopDX. “I’m pretty sure I had the hardest verse. Even if it wasn’t the best, I’m pretty sure it was the most aggressive. I might have said the most outlandish shit.”

He continued: “I always go for me, but no ‘Blackout?’ Nah me. I think it’s safe to say. You know what it is, if you want me to be honest, you know this. I be roasting shit, I ain’t no sleeper dog. I’m the guy who don’t really say much, but look at my track record and look at what I’m rhyming on. Go back, and you’ll never hear I got burned.”

“Blackout” was featured on DMX’s second studio album Flesh of My Flesh, Blood of My Blood in 1998. The legendary rapper passed away earlier this year at the age of 50.

Styles P released a joint project with Havoc, Wreckage Manner, on December 3.

Khloe Kardashian says that Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott are indeed a couple, despite their canceled W Magazine profile reporting otherwise.

“Wow I don’t know why this magazine would write this but they are very much a couple,” Kardashian wrote in response to a snippet from the profile, which said otherwise.

The author doesn’t appear to explain why they didn’t think Jenner and Scott were a couple, but they jokingly refer to them as a “modern family.”

“Travis and Kylie seemed very comfortable under the sheets, but even though they will soon have two children together — their daughter, Stormi, is 3 — they are not a couple, and haven’t been in two years,” the piece reads. “They’re the modern family!”

The W Magazine cover story was canceled following the tragedy at Scott’s Astroworld Festival, where ten people were killed following a crowd surge during his performance.

“W editors have cleared any planned coverage of Travis and Kylie from their website, but the magazine was already printed, and now they are trying to stop the delivery trucks,” an insider told Page Six at the time. “In light of what happened at Astroworld, the interview and cover lines seem inappropriate, to say the least.”

Check out Kardashian’s response to the story below.
