Porsha Williams and Simon Guobadia are engaged after only one month of dating. While it may seem that they’ve rushed into their engagement, they have both stated that they believe they’re perfect for one another. Despite their new love connection, fans of the Real Housewives of Atlanta franchise have pointed out that Porsha’s new man is the estranged husband of her alleged friend Falynn Guobadia, who was her co-star at a time.
Falynn and Simon filed for divorce in January 2021 and their split is still being processed legally. Until now, Falynn had been quiet about her estranged husband’s new relationship with Porsha Williams. She has since broken her silence with a statement to PEOPLE.
“I want to thank everyone for reaching out to me and offering their love and support,” she said in the statement. “At this time, I am focusing on finalizing my divorce and healing. Sending positivity to all of you.”
Speaking about her friendship with Falynn, Porsha previously said, “Simon filed for divorce from a previous marriage in January. I had nothing to do with their divorce filing. That’s between the two of them. Falynn and I are not friends, and Simon’s divorce has been settled. Our relationship is a positive, loving step forward in everybody’s lives.”
Simon Guobadia chimed in with his own post, saying, “I asked [Porsha] to marry me because we checked ALL of each other’s boxes, and then some. We have done the individual work to sustain a healthy relationship, and I stand next to her, proud that we found each other. What we have is what we wish every single one of you out there – happiness. So when I asked…she said yes.”
Earlier today, Porsha responded to a fan who said that her engagement ring was identical to Falynn’s, denying that much.

It’s no surprise that Rick Ross is naming his upcoming album Richer Than I’ve Ever Been, considering that he’s seemingly richer than he’s ever been. Yet even hip-hop’s self-declared “Biggest Boss,” himself an admirer of fine possessions and lavish living, cannot compete with the substantial fortune and equally substantial car collection of late-night legend Jay Leno.
Leno recently invited Rick Ross and his team to appear on Jay Leno’s Garage, and the rapper quickly found himself falling in love with one of Leno’s prized possessions. “Ladies and gentlemen, this is the F1 McLaren,” declares Renzel, with a similar adoring passion in his cadence to that employed by David Attenborough on Planet Earth. “Valued at fifteen million dollars. The gold motor. The middle seat, the red seat is a middle seat in between both seats. F1.”
In addition to the McLaren clip, Rozay took to Instagram to thank Leno for his hospitality, teasing his upcoming appearance in the process. “Detail is everything,” captions Ross, alongside a behind-the-scenes pic. “I thank Jay Leno @jaylenosgarage for bringing me and my team @geterk_183rd @iamlexpierrelouis to Burbank, California to film an episode starring my prized possession ’57 Renzel’ built by @57freddy out of Miami. I got to ride thru Cali hills top down, windows up talking classic rides with the Legend today.”
Check out Rozay’s footage from his time at Jay Leno’s garage below, including his adoring commentary on the rare and beautiful F1 McLaren. Do you think there are any rappers out there with a car collection that could marvel that of Jay Leno’s?
Nipsey Hussle’s family and loved ones will, unfortunately, need to wait a few months longer to reach justice in the murder case involving the rapper’s suspected killer, Eric Holder. According to The Shade Room, Holder reportedly refused to leave his jail cell this morning for a court hearing so his trial was delayed until later this year. He was also assigned a new lawyer.
Holder’s trial has been pushed back a few times now. When the pandemic was just starting, it was reported that his trial was pushed back because the courts were closed. At this point, the trial has been delayed for over a year. The latest report reads that Holder was assigned a new lawyer, Aaron Jansen, who is replacing his previous defense attorney, Lowynn Young. Holder was initially being represented by Christopher Darden, the same attorney from O.J. Simpson’s murder trial before he stepped down.
The previous judge in this case has retired and a jew judge, Honorable Clay Jacke, has been assigned. Considering there is a new judge and attorney, it will likely take a few months for them to get caught up on everything.
Prosecutors have accused Holder of shooting Nipsey Hussle in the head and chest outside of the rapper’s shop in Los Angeles. He was indicted on one count of murder, two counts of attempted murder related to other victims, and weapons charges.
We will continue to keep you updated on the status of this trial.

On Monday, the superstar rapper kicked off a new era, posting a picture for the first time in months and hinting that she could have something major happening at the end of the week. Twenty-four hours have passed since the initial teaser, which was so popular that four different Nicki-related trends were popping off on Twitter simultaneously. The rapper also boosted sales for Crocs, marking a 4,900% increase in sales for the pink clogs she was wearing in the selfie. The Barbz have been going crazy trying to figure out what might be happening on Friday and now, they’ve seemingly got some new lyrics they can use as their upcoming social media captions.
Sharing a new picture for the second straight day, Nicki Minaj showed off her famous figure by crouching in a skintight minidress, arching her back and popping her booty. Her caption caught the attention of hundreds of thousands who commented instantly after the photo upload, speculating that the Queen might have just shared some of her new lyrics.
“Btchs act like they want action, heard they want action, btch we aint duckin no action,” she wrote. “I’m bout to giv’em dat traction, send a distraction— then ima line’em like FRACTIONS. F R I D A Y.”
Her pen game has always been strong. Do you think we might be in for another classic single on Friday? There are some rumors that Rihanna might be involved in the drop, which fans suggested after noticing that the two had followed each other this week. Read more about that here.

Gunna has a lot to celebrate these days but his latest accomplishment comes in the form of a new plaque. The rapper’s 2020 album, Wunnahas officially reached platinum status, as chartdata points out. The rapper’s latest project has officially pushed over 1M units which means that the RIAA will soon enough certify the album as platinum-selling.
While this is a massive accomplishment for any artist, the new feat appears to have pushed Gunna to strive for bigger accolades when his next album comes around. Though no release date for the project has been set, he made it clear that he’s gunning to triple those numbers when it drops. “Today I Went Platinum Again,” he wrote over the weekend alongside a photo of himself flexing on a private jet. “My Next album goin Triple,” he added.
The album initially dropped on May 22nd, 2020 before he came through with the inevitable release of the deluxe edition which brought the tracklist up to 26 songs from 18.
The news of the platinum album comes shortly after Gunna, Young Thug, and the rest of the Young Stoner Life squad celebrated the chart-topping debut of Slime Language 2 on the Billboard 200. Gunna’s yet to share any updates on his solo project but Slime Language 2 is holding us over during the interim.
Check out Gunna’s post celebrating his platinum-selling album below.
A New Orleans woman is being accused of taking off with several expensive pieces of jewelry from one of Curren$y’s Jet Life affiliates, posting a picture with a silver chain, a Rolex watch, and a ruby ring. The woman, named Essence Lindsay, reportedly locked herself in the victim’s bedroom and refused to come out. The next day, Lindsay left the home and the man found some of his jewelry missing. The theft reportedly took place last week.
Curren$y claims that the silver chain that was taken was part of a Friends & Family collection that he handed out to those close to him. “Ooooooooohhhhhh one of the homies got caught slippin and let a broad steal some jewelry,” he reacted on Twitter. “I need everybody n the crew to post they jetlife chain… which one of y’all boys got jacked and ain’t say nuffin ?hahhaa.”
The story ended up making the news, causing an even stronger reaction from the rapper. “It ain’t funny… but u mean to tell me u called the news before u called us?…. who did this?… it’s a lil funny can’t lie but let’s be serious for a sec. haaaaaa. Or the cops and then the cops called the news haha either way…. who the f*ck hahah …. that ofcourse is if this is a real thing that happened. But boyyyyyy n***az hotta know better than to sleep round something u can’t trust … learn from it. Laugh about. But maaaaannnnn.”
He continued on Tuesday, revealing that the chain was definitely from one of his affiliates. “After further examination of the photo I see that it was one of the silver Jetlife chains we had made for novelty gifts for friends and family,” explained Curren$y. “Of which she was neither so she had to have stolen it from an affiliate for sure but it was just the silver one haha but still bro.”

Young Dolph & Key Glock still aren’t stopping, even nearly two months after the release of their latest joint album Dum & Dummer 2. After putting out videos for “Aspen,” “Sleep With The Roaches,” “Penguins,” “Rain Rain,” and more, they keep the ball rolling today with the video for “A Goat & A Dolphin.”
The most prominent feature of this video is its female talent, this time in the form of a short-haired young woman in a bikini who twerks behind Key Glock as he raps. The scene switches for Dolph’s verses, adopting a red filter as the two rappers stand back-to-back in a smoky room, adding more women who catwalk through the scene, occasionally pausing to mug at the camera or briefly interact with the rappers.
In an era when most rappers drop a project and forget about it within a few weeks, Dolph and Glock’s commitment to bringing attention to their latest effort is commendable — and smart. They continue to run up the streaming numbers long after the album’s release, a rarity in an increasingly packed slate of big-name releases from major label artists who can afford to stretch their rollouts for months on end. With Dolph announcing his pending retirement last month, he’ll be leaving the game on an extremely high note and earning his time off.
