The Congressional Black Caucus is requesting to meet with the president of “Sesame Street”-themed amusement park, Sesame Place. This comes after a viral video showing a costumed character at the park in Langhorne, Pennsylvania ignoring two young Black girls. 

Jodi Brown was there with her daughter (Skylar) and niece (Nylah),as they were rudely dismissed by a Sesame Place employee in character during a parade over a week ago.

 In an official statement, the caucus recognizes that Sesame Place has issued an apology over the incident, but that it wants to meet with Park President Cathy Valeriano to discuss future plans of actions and training.

The caucus cited the “gravity of the situation” and the “integral” role “Sesame Street” plays in the lives of young children.

Nationally renowned civil rights and personal injury attorneys Ben Crump and B’Ivory LaMarr have joined the legal teams of the Browns who are outraged by the incident.

Julia Fox Reveals She “Shaved Around” Her Controversial Extra Low-Rise Pants

Julia Fox’s latest fashion adventure? The lowest-rise pants she can get her hands on.

Following her split from Kanye West after their brief, whirlwind romance earlier this year, the mother of one has continued to take serious risks with her wardrobe, even baring basically her entire pubic bone during a recent night out with friends.

Earlier this week, a picture surfaced online of Fox posing alongside Scott Disick’s ex, Amelia Hamlin (who she previously linked up with for a sultry photoshoot), as well as Netflix reality star Christine Quinn, though viewers only noticed one thing – the Uncut Gems actresses’ almost exposed vagina.

Seeing as she paired the risqué pants with a black string bikini top, very little was left to the imagination, although that didn’t stop the 32-year-old from posing and strutting with absolute confidence, even proving in a video clip that the bottoms are capable of staying up and keeping her somewhat modest.

On Tuesday (July 26), Fox hopped on her Instagram Story to address those who were critiquing her outfit, at the same time confirming that she had to “shave around” her pants to avoid showing off any more than she intended.

“There’s more to life than chasing an impossible beauty standard projected onto me by insecure celebrities for the ultimate goal of pleasing men,” the actress declared, calling those who don’t understand her look “mentally lazy.”

Fox’s recent looks – including a pyrotechnic coat and Alexander Wang underwear as a grocery shopping fit – prove her sentiments, although not all of Twitter is ready to stand behind her.

Another Tory Lanez & DJ Drama Gangsta Grillz Tape Could Be Coming Soon: “We Overdue”

Tory Lanez and DJ Drama worked their magic on The New Toronto back in 2015, and it seems that the two creatives are itching to hit the studio together again in the near future.

Over the weekend, the Generation Now co-founder hopped on Twitter to get some fan feedback about which R&B artist he should connect with for the next installment of his beloved Gangsta Grillz series. When one fan suggested the Canadian, Drama reminded him that they’d already previously linked up, though he wasn’t opposed to reconnecting with Lanez.

“We overdue for another,” the 44-year-old teased, getting the attention of DJ Akademiks, who screenshotted the interaction and shared it on his own Instagram page to help generate some buzz.

Lanez only fueled the fire by writing “THE NEW TORONTO 4 coming soon?” in the comment section, though he failed to provide any further details on the potential upcoming project.

As you may remember, the original in the musical series hit DSPs on Christmas Day in 2015, and a sequel followed that just over two years later, on New Year’s Day of 2017.

The most recent edition arrived in 2020 and came in tandem with the end of Lanez’s five-album contract with Interscope Records. That same project debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 chart and sold 64K album-equivalent units in its first week.

For his part, Drama has been busy working on projects such as Dreamville’s D-Day: A Gangsta Grillz Mixtaperevisit our review of that project here, and tap back in with HNHH later for any updates on new music from Tory Lanez and other artists.

Kim Kardashian Shares Pictures Comparing Chicago West To Kendall Jenner

Like most parents, Kim Kardashian loves to shower her kids with affection. Kardashian was recently seen with her sister Khloé cheering on North at her basketball game, and before that brought her oldest daughter on a “Camp North” retreat.

Today, Kim showed her other daughter, the four-year-old Chicago, some social media love. In an Instagram Story, Kim reposted side-by-side pictures of her daughter next to her sister, Kendall Jenner, to illustrate how similar the two look.

Kim didn’t add additional commentary to the post, but tagged Kendall. In the photo, Chicago, one of the four children of Kim and Kanye West, stares directly into the camera. Apparently, the photo was taken during a Kardashian-Jenner family Christmas card shoot in December of last year. Jenner also stares directly into the camera with a similar intensity in her photo.

Some fans related to the comparison. “I don’t look like my mom either, I look like my aunt. It’s not otherworldly to look like extended family members,” wrote an observer on Twitter. Others didn’t really get the similarities. “People see what they wanna see because I don’t see it they look nothing alike,” wrote one user. When the Christmas card originally came out in 2021, some people drew the comparison themselves. “Chicago is coming for auntie Kendall’s job,” wrote one fan.

Kim’s been quite active with her IG Stories today. Earlier in the day, she posted a call for Instagram to return to its old ways. “Make Instagram Instagram Again,” read the post. “(Stop trying to be tiktok I just want to see cute photos of my friends). Sincerely, Everyone.”

Check out the comparison of Chicago and Kendall below. Do you see it?

Julio Jones To Join Tom Brady & Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Report

Julio Jones is reportedly signing a one-year deal to join the Tampa Bay Buccaneers where he will catch passes from Tom Brady alongside Mike Evans. The seven-time Pro Bowl wide receiver will likely replace Chris Godwin as the number two receiver as the 26-year-old will miss most of the season recovering from a torn ACL.

The addition of Jones also comes in the wake of Rob Gronkowski’s retirement. The team added veteran tight end Kyle Rudolph, last week, to fill his role. On top of Evans and Godwin, Jones will also join a wide receiver room consisting of Tyler Johnson, Scotty Miller, and Breshad Perriman, as well as newcomer Russell Gage.

Prior to joining the Bucs, Jones had been linked to the Indianapolis Colts, who are in dire need of depth at the wide receiver position. The team’s GM, Chris Ballard, denied any interest in the 33-year-old on Tuesday.

Jones was released by the Tennesee Titans in March, just one year after joining the team. He had difficulty staying on the field and in ten games, finished with 434 yards and just one touchdown, both being career lows for the future Hall of Famer. The Titans had traded two draft picks to acquire him.

Jones will likely make his regular-season debut with the Bucs in Week 1 against the Dallas Cowboys.
