Iggy Azalea Calls Out Playboi Carti, Fans React

by

Iggy Azalea says that she “warned” fans about Playboi Carti after the rapper was arrested for allegedly choking his pregnant girlfriend. The two had been in an argument about a paternity test when the woman says Carti grabbed her by her throat and pushed her. Iggy Azalea, who dated Carti from 2018 through 2019, previously claimed that he cheated on her and missed their son’s birth.

“Been there. Done that. Warned you,” Azalea wrote in her first post. She later added in another: “Imagine having a pregnant girlfriend and pretending they don’t exist until it comes out you like to abuse them too – & rarely visiting your actual son unless is because you’re running from whatever problems ya got going on in Atlanta & the press with your serial abuse of woman.”

Iggy Azalea’s Posts

Azalea’s posts prompted Carti fans to flood into her replies to defend their favorite artist. “HE LIVES IN YOUR HEAD RENT FREE,” one user wrote. Another implied Azalea is a hypocrite for working with Tory Lanez in the past. “Talking about abusers like you wasn’t just ready let tory lanez produce ya album before he got put in all orange and cuffs is wild,” they argued.

Despite the negative response from Carti fans, many of Azalea’s own supporters defended her in the replies as well. “Were his fans waiting on you to post about this???” one said. “Why they all In the comments defending him???? Get a job.” Another admitted: “I’m a huge Carti fan but this really shocked me and I’m disappointed in him. You can’t defend something like that.”

Other users criticized Azalea for being on the platform OnlyFans. The Australian rapper joined the platform, last month, for her ongoing Hotter Than Hell multimedia project. On the site, she posts photos, videos, music, illustrations, and poetry. The project is expected to build up to the release of her untitled fourth studio album, which will release in the summer. Subscriptions to Azalea’s OnlyFans page cost $25 per month. Check out the responses to Azalea’s post regarding Playboi Carti below.

Iggy Azalea Accuses Playboi Carti Of “Serial Abuse Of Women”

by

They have had their own tense moments in the past, and Iggy Azalea is speaking on Playboi Carti’s recent legal troubles. The two rappers were in a relationship for some time and share a son, Onyx. Their breakup unraveled on social media as Azalea accused Carti of neglecting time with her and their son to creep around with other women. At the time, she also aired out their personal business—a huge moment considering they kept just about every aspect of their romance private.

More recently, Playboi Carti was reportedly arrested for an alleged domestic violence incident. The altercation itself was said to have taken place two months ago. TMZ further stated Carti was detained in Georgia and booked on charges of obstructing a person making a phone call and felony aggravated assault. Azalea emerged on Twitter with a few scathing tweets about her ex. “Been there. Done that. Warned you. 🤷‍♀️,” she began.

“Imagine having a pregnant girlfriend and pretending they don’t exist until it comes out you like to abuse them too,” Azalea also shared. “[And] rarely visiting your actual son unless is because you’re running from whatever problems ya got going on in Atlanta & the press with your serial abuse of woman 🤷‍♀️. Anyway. I’m having an actually amazing day! karmas real! Treat the people you love well! Happy Valentine’s Day. 💕🙇‍♀️.”

According to reports, it was December 20 when Carti’s then-20-weeks pregnant girlfriend said they got into an argument over paternity. She claimed a physical altercation ensued, and the rapper grabbed her by the throat until she could barely breathe before shoving her into bushes. Additionally, it wasn’t only the woman’s account that was told to investigators; a witness was said to have attempted to help the pregnant woman. It gave her enough time to wrestle from Carti and run for help.

However, Carti is accused of chasing his girlfriend to her car, where a second attack occurred. He allegedly yanked her out of the vehicle and placed his hand over her mouth. She was finally able to contact the authorities using her cellphone’s “S.O.S.” feature. When police arrived, they took note of her physical injuries, including bruising to her chest, back, and neck. Carti’s attorney denies the allegations and believes the case will be dismissed. Further, the rapper has not issued any statements about the accusations of abuse.

Post Malone Nearly Arrested While Filming “Impractical Jokers” Episode

by

Police nearly booked Post Malone while filming a new episode of Impractical Jokers. According to the New York Post, the singer was filming a prank with Brian “Q” Quinn in New York City. Post Malone and Quinn pretended to be parking attendants at Little Man Parking on E. 22nd Street when they came across one individual who wasn’t necessarily impressed by the prank.

Little Man Parking knew that Impractical Jokers and Post Malone were filming. However, Malone was nearly in hot water after pretending to smoke weed in a customer’s vehicle. “Boss, thanks for letting me smoke that up in there, man,” he told Quinn in front of the customer. At the same time, Malone began coughing as smoke crept out of the car.

James “Murr” Murray confirmed that police nearly arrived on the scene after an angry customer almost dialed 911. Fortunately, they turned out to be familiar with the show. “Thankfully they were fans of the show,” said James “Murr” Murray. “We almost got Q and Post Malone arrested.”

Another customer of Little Man Parking turned out to be a fan of the show but he actually called the police on Post Malone and Quinn. However, they told the person that he was on a hidden-camera prank show and he wasn’t as mad anymore. “The guy who called the cops actually had a very generous attitude about it once we told him what was going on,” Quinn explained.

Season 10 of Impractical Jokers will undoubtedly be a major return for the cast. Over the past few years, they shot a large chunk of the show in New Jersey on controlled sets. However, this time, they’ll be back in the streets of New York City. “You’re gonna see us in New York City supermarkets again and delis and like all the places that we used to,” said Quinn. “We were able to shoot back in Tompkins Square Park.”

Besides the recent shoot, Post Malone is currently on the road for a set of dates in Australia. The artist performs in Dockland, AUS on Feb. 7th and 9th before heading over to Burswood for a single date on Feb. 12th. He currently has one sole U.S. date on May 26th for BottleRock Napa Valley. Hopefully, he’ll announce more U.S dates in the near future.

“Euphoria” Star Chloe Cherry Accused Of Stealing $28 Blouse

by

She starred in one of HBO’s most successful shows, but that didn’t keep Chloe Cherry out of trouble with the law. The mania surrounding Euphoria thrust its stars into the spotlight, and Cherry found a new level of fame. The former adult entertainment actress was featured in over 200 pornographic films throughout her career, but she set her sights on the mainstream side of Hollywood.

According to Lancaster Online, Cherry was visiting her hometown in Pennsylvania when she was arrested. The outlet stated that Cherry was at Jenny & the Clowder, a space located at Building Character downtown. The actress reportedly took a $28 Moda International blouse into a dressing room but left without the shirt.

Cherry was said to have paid for “other items” but was questioned by an employee. The incident was captured on surveillance footage. Cherry allegedly “admitted to taking the blouse and returned it to an officer,” a complaint reads. Building Character owner Marty Hulse spoke with reporters about Cherry’s theft.

“Most times, when we find people who are shoplifting, we don’t find them in the act,” Hulse said. “They’ll take the tag off of it and throw it somewhere. Then we see the tag, and we can find them on the camera and where it came from, and that’s exactly what happened.”

Hulse and general manager Joel Henry claimed they didn’t know Cherry was a Hollywood star until police reached out to her mother. “I know it sounds piddly, but when it comes down to it, we’re all small businesses,” Hulse also stated. “You’re stealing from your neighbors.” However, Cherry’s rep told TMZ that this theft isn’t what it seems. They allege that the actress never admitted to stealing anything.

“In December, there was confusion over a blouse that wasn’t properly charged to my client’s credit card,” they said. “In no way did she ‘admit’ to taking the blouse, since that was not the case. This story seems to be more about a local store trading on a celebrity’s name more than anything else.”

Reports added that Cherry was allegedly involved in a similar theft in 2015. She is scheduled to face a judge in this case on March 1.

Lil Tjay’s Lawyer Explains Latest Legal Trouble

by

Lil Tjay’s lawyer, Dawn Florio, says that police have not rearrested the rapper for another gun charge. Instead, there was confusion about whether a judge mandated him to appear in court on Friday.

“Lil Tjay was not rearrested for another gun charge,” Florio told AllHipHop. “He was excused from appearing in court last Friday by the arraignment judge. Another judge revoked his bond and put him back in jail for missing court on Friday even though he was told by the first judge that he did not have [to] appear.”

The lawyer added: “Lil Tjay’s family posted the bail yesterday and he is free. It is so unfortunate that he had to be jailed for something that was not his fault.”

Police previously arrested Lil Tjay, earlier this month, while he was on his way to shoot a music video with Ice Spice. They charged him with second-degree criminal possession of a weapon.

It was during Tjay’s latest sting in jail that reports suggested police had booked him for another gun charge.

Lil Tjay has since posted bail. He is due back in court on February 14.

The latest legal trouble comes after Lil Tjay sat down for an interview with Rolling Stone. In the piece, the New York rapper revealed some words of wisdom that 50 Cent provided him with after he was hospitalized in 2022 following a shooting in New Jersey.

“Every artist needs pain or something to feed off of. This right here, you shake this shit off,” Tjay recalled 50 telling him. 50 was famously shot nine times back in 2000.

According to reports, Tjay was inside a vehicle with several other people when officers approached. They were said to have been in a no-idling zone, and soon, police searched the vehicle.

Drake’s Home Burglarized In Los Angeles, Man Arrested After Stealing Unknown Item: Report

by

One of the undeniable perks that come with celebrity status is having the money to purchase luxurious homes. However, that same status and worldwide fame are exactly what makes public figures the unfortunate targets of many robberies and break-ins. The latest star to fall victim to the criminal antics is none other than Drake.

On Friday (January 27), TMZ broke the story. The night before, Champagne Papi’s Los Angeles residence was broken into. At the time, a man snuck into the rapper’s home, consequently alerting his security who promptly called the police.

Officers responded last night. They say that Drake’s team reportedly saw an unknown man leaving the property while carrying an unknown object. By the time authorities arrived, the suspect disappeared and a neighbourhood search began.

Sources tell the outlet that hours later, a man matching the suspect’s description walked down a nearby street. Cops took the anonymous perpetrator into custody. He was apparently still carrying the mysterious object previously taken from the mansion.

Thankfully, Drake wasn’t home at the time of the burglary, but he’s certainly no stranger to similar past experiences. As TMZ notes, a 23-year-old man was arrested at the same home as recently as July for misdemeanour trespassing. This surprise visitor was claiming that the father of one is also his dad.

News of the break-in is certainly upsetting for Drake. Thankfully, he’s got great friends in his corner to help turn that around, such as Jim Jones. Earlier this week, The Diplomats artist declared his Canadian friend the hip-hop group’s “fifth official member” following their legendary takeover at the Apollo Theatre.

Rich Dollaz Speaks On Daughter’s Arrest: “I’m Baffled As Anyone Else”

by

Following the arrest of his daughter, Rich Dollaz has spoken out about the incident. The Love & Hip Hop star was thrust into headlines this week after his daughter, Ashley Trowers, was reportedly taken into custody. She’s accused of shooting the father of her child, Demiah Tatum, when he showed up at her job.

It was said that Trowers was in the middle of her first day at work at a Kroger gas station when Tatum arrived with another man. She reportedly has a restraining order against Tatum, and when she ran, Trowers claims the men chased her in a car.

It was then that Trowers reportedly shot at the vehicle, striking Tatum. She was arrested for aggravated assault.

“I’m baffled as anyone else,” Rich told The Shade Room. While he lives in Dallas, Trowers resides in Memphis. “I’m not with Ashley every day.” He also chastised people who criticized Trowers for working at a Krogers. Rich thinks it’s admirable that his daughter wants to make her own way.

“My daughter is a 20-something-year-old with a newborn baby that lived with her man, and she’s a grown adult,” he also shared. “I found out Ashley worked at Kroger at the same time everyone else did.” Adding, “I don’t think there’s anything wrong with my daughter wanting to do it on her own.”

“I don’t condone shooting, I don’t condone violence, I don’t condone any of that,” said Rich. “But at the end of the day, I’m never going to be okay with a man putting his hand on my kid, either.”

“Being involved in a situation where a man is putting his hands on you is never good,” he further stated. It seems that his daughter didn’t tell him everything that was going on.

“Ashley’s a grown woman. She’s not a 17-year-old kid living under my roof, she’s not an 18-year-old, she’s not in college anymore. She’s a graduate, she’s done with all that, she’s on her own.”

Additionally, Miracle, Ashley’s mother, also previously got into trouble for shooting her husband. The case was eventually dismissed.

“It was a domestic violence situation with Miracle, the same as it was with Ashley,” said Rich. “Two women were defending themselves, and I’m always going to stand by. Just like when Miracle shot her husband, I stood by her, and I want to stand by my daughter.”

There’s Love & Hip Hop drama concerning Rich Dollaz; however, he isn’t actively involved.

Six Arrested After Riots Break Out Near Atlanta Police Training Facility

by

Atlanta police arrested six individuals on Saturday (January 21) after peaceful protests against an activist’s death turned to riots. Moreover, the protests occurred near the Atlanta Public Safety Training Center, which many citizens wish to see removed. After the peaceful demonstrations evolved into violent responses, protestors smashed windows, caused chaos, and lit a police vehicle on fire.

“Atlanta Police officers have responded to a group damaging property at several locations along Peachtree [Street],” Atlanta PD stated on Saturday, according to Fox 5. “Several arrests have been made at this time and order has been restored to the downtown space. This is still an active and ongoing investigation and we will not be able to provide specifics on arrests numbers or property damaged, at this time.”

“Atlanta is safe and our police officers have resolved the disruptions downtown from earlier in the evening,” City of Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens said on Saturday evening. 

“The City of Atlanta and the Atlanta Police Department will continue to protect the right to peaceful protest,” he added. “We will not tolerate violence or property destruction.”

According to FOX 5 Atlanta, rioters set off fireworks and threw rocks at the Atlanta Police Foundation as well. Furthermore, protestors spoke out against the death of Manuel Esteban Páez Terán at the hands of police. Allegedly, they refused demands from authorities to leave an encampment of protestors against the new facility. Moreover, its detractors nicknamed it “Cop City.” Additionally, authorities announced this new training facility to boost morale and recruitment.

Furthermore, Terán identified as non-binary and went by “Tortuguita,” according to fellow protestors. When police searched encampments near the facility to halt their trespassing, they reportedly shot at police. Later, they died in the ensuing gunfight.

Meanwhile, Georgia governor Brian Kemp expressed that violence in peaceful are unacceptable.

“While the state continues to respect peaceful protest,” they will not tolerate riots of this magnitude. Moreover, he ordered authorities to arrest and prosecute lawbreakers.

However, what do you think of the riots near the Atlanta police training facility? Whatever the case let us know in the comments down below. Also, come back to HNHH for more updates on this story.
