Lil Uzi Vert Answers Fan Questions About JT & More On TMZ Tour Bus: Watch
Lil Uzi Vert is a man of the people. As HipHopDX reports, on Monday, May 30th, footage began circulating online of the 26-year-old hanging out on the TMZ tour bus, where he posed for photos with fans and even answered some of their most burning questions.
In the clip, we see (and hear) others onboard the vehicle squealing over being in the rapper’s presence, many of them approaching him to take pictures and some even asking him for a hug, which he happily obliged.

At one point, as Uzi looks to be heading off the bus, the door closes in his face, trapping him with fans for a few more moments. As this happens, the interviewer asked if anyone had any questions that they’ve always wanted to ask the Philadelphia native.
While plenty of voices immediately began chattering, one loudly emerged, wondering, “How’s JT?!” Lil Uzi happily answered that his girl is “Good,” adding, “she’s in Jamaica” (as you may have seen on Instagram, the City Girls have been twerking up a storm on their tropical island trip).
In another popular video moment from the ride, Uzi showed love to Jack Harlow, giving his opinion on critics saying that the Kentucky native is only so successful because of his white privilege.
At the end of the clip, we see one of the girls on the bus had FaceTimed their brother and the “Silly Watch” artist even stopped to acknowledge him before heading off.
In other news, speaking of JT – the Florida-born star made headlines of her own over the weekend when she absolutely assassinated a Twitter user for attacking the City Girl’s appearance; read more about that here, and tap back in with HNHH later for more pop culture news updates.

Mo’Nique Responds To D.L. Hughley’s Receipts With Some Of Her Own
As you may know, beloved actress Mo’Nique and comedian D.L. Hughley have been going back and forth on social media over a contract dispute. Earlier today, the 59-year-old responded to Mo’s public call for receipts, which he provided, but now she’s come through with some of her own, turning the tables once again.
“There were some of you who were fooled by the smoke and mirrors of D.L. posting his ‘Deal Memo’ versus his ‘Performance Agreement,” the Precious actress wrote on Instagram on Monday evening. “Here is my Performance Agreement and here are emails and texts confirming that, as per usual, I’m going to always keep it real and honest with my people.”

The 54-year-old pointed out that her contract has been signed, while the one that Hughley posted was not. “What type of iron-clad agreement doesn’t have the signatures of the participants involved? Apparently D.L’s. Lol!”
“Now, you told me to check with my management and this is what I came up with, so how’d I do?” the comedian continued her poignant response to the author. “Perhaps you should have taken your own advice because I’m sure your team would have advised you against trying to pass a deal memo off as a contract.”
Mo’Nique then swooped in with some commentary on the industry, adding, “To those out there who thought a deal memo was the same as a performance agreement (especially some of the comedians) this is how we’re constantly taken advantage of by the business.”

“And, just so you know, the promoter already told my team before the show that you didn’t have a signed agreement, that’s why I’m not surprised you’re using a deal memo. That said, maybe they lied and you actually have a contract,” she speculated.
“If so, the promoters have put themselves in a terrible position to have more legal action taken against them, beyond malicious concealment for breaking the contract at the last second. That said, D.L., we the people will be waiting for your signed agreement.”
Within the carousel she shared to her Instagram feed, Mo included her signed contract, an email with a PDF of the run of show, an additional email holding the same information, and finally, “what [she] walked into minutes after arriving at the theatre – a schedule revealing Hughley as the penultimate entertainer of the evening.

Chrisean Rock Breaks Her Silence, Claims Blueface’s Family Has Been “Bullying [Her] For 2 Years”
Over the weekend, an undeniably messy spat broke out involving Chrisean Rock and Blueface, as well as the rapper’s mother, Karlissa Saffold, and his sister, Kali Miller. Initially, the latter two women claimed they were both hit by Blue, hopping on social media to share their own stories, but it wasn’t long before Wack 100 refuted their allegations, revealing to Hollywood Unlocked that it was Chrisean who fought them.
Rock also admitted to being involved in an altercation on Blue’s IG story, with Wack later coming through with receipts and some graphic footage of the aftermath of the incident. The Baltimore native has remained relatively quiet about all the drama, although earlier today she went live to tell her side of the story.

During the stream, the “Rainy Days” artist confirmed Wack 100’s report about Karlissa not wanting Chrisean in her son’s house, where the rapper’s mother and her husband have been staying. An argument broke out, and Rock claims that a glass jar and other objects were hurled her way.
In the past, Blueface’s mother allegedly swung on Chrisean at her other son’s barbershop. “She swung on me before, but I let it slide. You know, I don’t hit [other] people’s mothers. So, it took a lot in me to do what I had to do because she kept charging at me and was like, ‘I’mma beat the shit out of you,’ and shit like that,” the creative told viewers.
Rock also revealed that the 25-year-old gave her “permission” to defend herself from Karlissa. “Her son was like, ‘Yeah, stick up for yourself. Don’t let her hit you.’ So, I said, ‘Alright. F**k it.’ I’m beating her up and stomping on her, and Blue finally breaks it up.”
Later that same day, the beef continued when Chrisean was at Blue’s house hosting an event for her football team. The “Thotiana” hitmaker’s sister is said to have “rushed her in the garage,” which also lines up with Wack 100’s recounting.
Kali insisted that Rock square up, but her teammates asked the woman to leave. As the story goes, Kali’s husband came out of nowhere, pulling Chrisean’s hair and hitting her in the ear, and eventually, he was also hit by his own wife with things only escalating from there.
