Fans noticed Quavo and Saweetie quietly unfollowed each other on Instagram earlier this week, prompting rumors that the couple had called it quits after years of being together. The “Best Friend” rapper then took to Twitter yesterday (March 19) to confirm the news, explaining that she’s “endured too much betrayal” from the Migos rapper to continue on with their relationship. Quavo then took some time to express his disappointment in Saweetie following their breakup, to which the Icy Girl herself simply responded with a “Take Care,” the title of Drake’s memorable 2011 project.

Internet users were quick to get the jokes off from the whole situation. “I had love for you and disappointed you did all that. You are not the woman I thought you were. I wish you nothing but the best,” Quavo wrote to prompt the two-word response from Saweetie. 

One user edited Sweetie’s face over the original Take Care album cover, while another joked that the cherry on top would be if Drake and Saweetie collabed on a song together. 

Another user wrote, “Drake about to start a bar like “Saweetie telling me to take care, I wonder if she know, she was really my amigo, I know 3 is a crowd and she aint letting me go.” Check out some more jokes below. 

Even though legendary actor Robin Williams has passed away, it seems like we could be getting some new material from him sometime soon. Chris Columbus, director of Mrs. Doubtfire, recently revealed that there is plenty of R-rated material thanks to Robin Williams’ raunchy improvised takes. Speculation about extra footage from the 1993 comedy began to circulate a while back when a viral Tweet claimed that there were multiple versions of the film, including PG, PG-13, R, and NC-17.

Columbus said that while this really isn’t true, he and Williams would often do many different takes on set that resulted in some inappropriate and humorous content. “The reality is that there was a deal between Robin and myself, which was, he’ll do one or two, three scripted takes,” he explained. “And then he would say, ‘Then let me play.’ And we would basically go on anywhere between 15 to 22 takes, I think 22 being the most I remember.”

The filmmaker continued, “He would sometimes go into territory that wouldn’t be appropriate for a PG-13 movie, but certainly appropriate and hilariously funny for an R-rated film. I only [previously] used the phrase NC-17 as a joke. There could be no NC-17 version of the movie.”

Columbus also said that with all the extra material, he likely has ‘three or four’ versions of the film. “I would be open to maybe doing a documentary about the making of the film, and enabling people to see certain scenes re-edited in an R-rated version,” he said. Hopefully, someday we’ll be able to see these re-edited scenes.

Beyoncé and Taylor Swift have an interesting pop cultural history together. If you remember correctly, back in 2009, Kanye West unforgettably interrupted Taylor’s VMA victory speech for Best Female Video, apologizing before proclaiming that, “Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time.” There’s no lingering animosity between them, as they’ve both made clear, and their friendship has even blossomed even more since then when they celebrated the “Love Story” singer’s 25th birthday together. The Lemonade artist took some time to send over flowers to congratulate the folklore artist on her Grammys 2021 wins.

“Woke up to flowers from the queen of grace & greatness [Beyoncé] and suddenly it’s the best Friday EVER,” the 31-year-old songstress wrote as a caption of a photo of the bouquet and a handwritten note from the Black Parade artist.

“Taylor, Congratulations on your Grammy,” the note read. “It was great seeing you on Sunday night. Thank you for always being so supportive. Sending love to you and your family. B.”

“Thank you B and congratulations on your epic achievement Sunday night!!” Swift wrote over the photo, returning the favor and congratulating Beyoncé on becoming the most decorate woman in Grammys history after scoring her 28th award over the weekend (Mach 14). 

During her acceptance speech, the 39-year-old thanked her children and her husband, Jay-Z, whom she referred to as her “rock.” 

“I’ve been working my whole life since 9 years old and I can’t believe this happened. This is such a magical night,” Bey said.

Deshaun Watson has been on the receiving end of what now seems to be dozens of sexual assault allegations over the last week. Watson is currently at 12 official accusers, but 10 more are currently in the process of being interviewed. Attorney Tony Buzbee says he could have up to 22 women bringing forth allegations of sexual misconduct against him. All of the accusers’ stories are reportedly very similar, with all of the women being massage therapists who were assaulted by Watson while performing their services. Many of the women also noted that Watson contacted them through Instagram first, which they found to be strange since he is a pro athlete with dozens of therapists at his disposal.

Deshaun Watson and his team are adamant that he did not sexually assault any of the women bringing forth allegations against him. Watson claims that the only reason why he contacted massage therapists through Instagram is because his usual therapist had to stop treating him due to the COVID-19 pandemic, so he reached out to friends and teammates for recommendations. 

Watson is adamant that he never crossed a line with any of the women accusing him, calling their attorney “money-hungry” and refusing to give them a payout. Buzbee, however, insists that he has personally vetted all of the accusers and wants Watson to be held accountable. It seems as though both parties are looking forward to their day in court.

Charlamagne Tha God has admitted that he’s been a hater in the past, especially when it comes to Drake. The Canadian rapper has emerged as one of the biggest artists of our generation with the numbers to prove it. However, it was only a few months ago when Charlamagne questioned whether we were still in the Drake era.

Last week, Drake proved Charlamagne wrong when all three songs from his Scary Hours 2 EP claimed the top three spots on the Billboard Hot 100. No artist has ever gone on to debut two songs at the top of the chart, let alone three. Of course, Charlamagne was among the first to be notified of the accomplishment. Baka Not Nice apparently called Charlamagne out directly on Instagram which the radio host responded to during a recent episode of Brilliant Idiots. 

It began when Charlamagne was asked whether he would want a career like Jay-Z or Drake’s to which he replied, “Hov.” He explained that Jay-Z’s still regarded as a GOAT but his age plays a factor in his opinion. “I’m older, you know what I’m sayin’? That’s the generation I grew up in.” He said that Jay’s catalog is undeniable, and while the same could be said about Drake, Jay’s discography “means a little bit more.” Plus, he said the conversation might shift once Kendrick Lamar drops.

“Somebody sent me a message the other day ’cause Baka, I saw Baka, one of Drake’s mans, he put Drake doin’ the 1,2,3 and he @’d me CThaGod and said, ‘Zip it,'” Charlamagne recounted before revealing that someone told him that no one is thinking about Kendrick Lamar anymore.

Check the clip out below. Whose career would you rather: Jay-Z or Drake? Let us know in the comments. 

While Halle Berry certainly receives her fair share of recognition for her acting, she also receives an equal amount of praise for her beauty. The actress turned 54 over the summer last year, and that hasn’t stopped her from keeping the infamous sultry shots coming. On Valentine’s Day, she turned eyes when she shared a boomerang of herself dancing topless in heart print undies with her boyfriend Van Hunt. In her latest sexy shot, the mother of two rocked lingerie and combat boots in bed as she clutched a soda can. She took some time to fire back at a troll who suggested she was too old to be doing all of that.

Halle shared the cheeky photo on Friday (March 19), joking in the caption, “he don’t need to do the math to know ima problem.”

Halle responded to a since-deleted tweet attempting to shame her for sharing the sexy snap. “You’re 53,” incorrectly responded an invested Twitter user. 

“And what about it? Lol,” responded the actress, prompting the troll to delete his tweet. The Oscar winner set Twitter ablaze with the comeback, reaching over 140,000 likes in the now 19 hours the tweet has been up. 

“How Halle ruined this man’s life with a single tweet?” joked one user. Another wrote “Halle Berry absolutely leans into the fact that she is fucking Halle Berry and I love it. I’m tired of beautiful women being humble.” Check out more reactions to her killer comeback below.

Nicki Minaj’s mother, Carol Maraj, has filed a $150 million dollar lawsuit over what she believes was a wrongful death of her husband, 64-year-old Robert Maraj. Civil rights lawyer and activist Ben Crump is speaking out on the lawsuit, which he believes will hold Charles Polevich accountable for driving recklessly. Maraj was walking on a street on Long Island when he was struck, and police allege that Polevich walked over to Maraj and asked if he was okay before fleeing the scene. Polevich later hid his Volvo in a garage to conceal evidence. 

“Paul Napoli and I have filed a $150 million lawsuit in the hit-and-run death of Robert Maraj, @NICKIMINAJ‘s father,” Crump Tweeted on Friday. “Charles Polevich was not only irresponsible & negligent in hitting Maraj, but was more concerned about running away and hiding than seeking help.” He continued, “Polevich’s behavior was criminal, cowardly, and immoral,” Crump Tweeted on Friday. “We will hold him responsible for his reckless actions that led to Robert Maraj’s death!”

Polevich has been charged with two felonies, leaving the scene of an accident that led to death and tampering with or suppressing physical evidence. He has pled not guilty and is currently free on a $250,000 bond. Hopefully, justice can be served for Robert Maraj soon.
