Tamar Braxton Twerks On Chrisean Rock Before James Wright Chanel Beef: Watch

by

Chrisean Rock is used to landing herself in serious trouble when Blueface is involved. This weekend, the 23-year-old is proving that she’s capable of landing in hot water on her own accord as well. She’s been focusing on the success of her music career in recent weeks, specifically her Blueface diss track, “MR. TAKE YA B*TCH” with Lil Mabu. Thanks to the hard work she’s put in, Rock was recognized by R&B icon Tamar Braxton, and offered an opportunity to address the crowd at her Friday (November 10) evening concert.

In videos circulating from the event, the Baltimore native looks to be in good spirits while turning up with Braxton backstage. The pair show off their twerking moves for the camera. In another video, Rock speaks to the audience though there appears to be an effort to have her removed from the stage. According to initial reports, the new mother missed her opportunity to perform while attempting to grab a friend from the front of the venue. This set her off, and resulted in a physical attack on James Wright Chanel that reportedly sent him to the hospital.

Braxton’s good friend LeTroy has been breaking down the drama from his perspective. He alleges that Rock was actually never meant to sing to the crowd last night. “She come to Tamar concert drunk with 1,000 people, smelling like weed, looking d**b,” he yelled into the camera while defending his friends. “Apparently she makes music, I didn’t know that,” LeTroy’s rant continued.

“Apparently she wanted to drop a beat, you know what I’m saying? So, she was mad that she didn’t get to perform! I didn’t know she was a performer, and even if I did know she was, she was not getting on the stage that everybody has worked their a** off to make! Y’all seen the video, she was up there a drunk fool,” he vented.

“That lady is a disgusting pig,” LeTroy further bashed Rock in the caption of his post. “And I’m going to make sure she goes to jail. You do NOT come to my show and attack people! I’m going to do everything in my power to make sure she pays for assaulting James! She’s going to PRISON. I am soooo disgusted.” Do you think Chrisean deserves hard time for her latest violent actions? Let us know in the comments, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Cam’ron And Mase Decide The Worst Part About The Dwight Howard Assault Allegations Is Howard’s Sexuality

by

Last month, Dwight Howard was sued for sexual assault and battery. Model Stephen Harper has claimed after a period of flirting with Howard, he traveled to Howard’s home for a threesome. However, Harper states that despite retracting his consent to participate, Howard performed non-consensual oral sex on him and forced Harper to reciprocate in kind.

These claims, however, were just the most recent allegations against Howard. Royce Reed, the mother of Howard’s eldest child, recently released a number of shocking revelations about the former NBA player. “This man is evil. Y’all fall for it every time. Ask him why he’s telling a 12yo he’s gay bcuz he hadn’t “touched anything” or watching porn with them? Better yet, why it took 4.5 years to fire the nanny that molested 2 of his kids. I got time today. He took this little boy from this grandmother that raised him and kept her in court for 2yrs only to give him to his parents while he was overseas. Reed also claimed that Howard had asked her to be the “matriarch” of his “polyamory quest”. However, It Is What It Is decided to give a very bizarre take on the situation.

Cam’ron And Ma$e Discuss Howard Assault Allegations

On a recent episode of It Is What It Is, Cam’ron claimed that days before the assault allegations were made public, Howard’s team reached. Their intention was apparently to secure an appearance for Howard. Cam’ron then proceeded to ask his co-host how he would react. In particular, given the revelations, how he would react if he was on a team and playing with Howard. “I don’t want to say it because we’re on the air. But I would probably want Howard to have his own space,” Ma$e argued. So right off the bat, that’s just segregation. And no, we shouldn’t segregate same-sex attracted athletes just because of their sexual attraction. One of the most infuriating things about straight people is their narcissistic obsession that they are attractive to same-sex attracted individuals.

Cam’ron appears to agree with Ma$e, bringing up a video where Odell Beckham Jr. appears to appreciate his teammates’ asses. But don’t worry, Cam’ron later clarifies that he’s not homophobic because he “got gay relatives”. However, what’s most telling is that during this entire clip, no one actually brings up the allegations Howard has been hit with. The entire conversation is done through the lens of Howard’s sexuality, not the heinous acts he has been accused of committing.

WNBA’s Riquna Williams Arrested On Domestic Battery Charges

by

Las Vegas Aces guard Riquna Williams has reportedly been arrested on nine counts of domestic battery in Nevada. The charges include five felony charges and four misdemeanors. The felonies include multiple counts of domestic battery by strangulation, coercion with the threat or use of physical force, and assault with use of a weapon.

Williams was released without bail on July 26, the day after her arrest. However, she was hit with a no-contact order regarding her alleged victim. Furthermore, she must also comply with an alcohol monitoring program. Williams will return to court for another hearing on August 2. Williams’ public defender acknowledged the charges and said there would be no issues in complying with the no-contact order. The guard has been in the WNBA since 2021 and played for the Aces since 2021. However, Williams has not yet appeared in the 2023 season due to injury.

“The Las Vegas Aces were made aware of domestic violence charges against a member of our team, Riquna Williams,” a statement from the team read. “As an organization, we condemn domestic violence of any kind. At this time, Riquna Williams will be precluded from participating in team activities. Our thoughts are with the parties involved in this situation. We are currently gathering more information, and as such we will not have any further comments at this time.” However, at the time of writing, Williams remains on the Aces’ roster. A similar statement was made by a representative of the WNBAPA. “We are aware of the alleged incident and are in the process of gathering more information,” the WNBA added in a statement of their own.

Williams’ alleged victim has not been named. Prosecutor Glen O’Brien referred to “violence and damage to the victim.” Meanwhile, Justice of the Peace Rebecca Saxe stated that the alleged acts occurred over an “extended period of time.” However, it’s also not Williams’ first run-in with the league’s domestic violence policy. In 2019, Williams was suspended for 10 games by the league after she was arrested on domestic violence charges against her then-partner in Florida. This is a developing story.

Tyreek Hill Investigated Over Alleged Assault In Miami

by

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill is reportedly under investigation for alleged assault and battery. First reported by Local 10 News, the Miami Police Department opened an investigation into Hill on Sunday evening. According to initial reports, Hill struck an employee of the Haulover Marina after a verbal altercation.

On June 18, which marked Father’s Day in the United States and around the world, Hill shared a video of him and agent Drew Rosenhaus fishing off the Florida coast. Rosenhaus later shared a similar video, showing a shark swimming past the boat he and Hill were fishing from. The alleged altercation reportedly took place when the pair returned to the marina on Sunday evening.

On June 21, the Miami Dolphins released a statement concerning the allegations. “We are aware of the situation and have been in contact with Tyreek, his representatives and the NFL,” a spokesperson for the Dolphins said. “We will reserve further comment at this time.” At the time of writing, both Hill and Rosenhaus are yet to release a statement about the allegations and subsequent investigation. Hill is entering his second season with the Dolphins. He amassed a career-high 1710 yards during the 2022 season.

However, it’s not the first time Hill has been linked with similar allegations. In 2014, Hill pled guilty to domestic assault and battery by strangulation after allegations were brought forward by his then-girlfriend. The plea led to Hill’s dismissal from the Oklahoma State football team. Furthermore, Hill was investigated for alleged child battery in 2019 after reports of his three-year-old son sustaining a broken arm surfaced. Hill was never formally charged or reprimanded as a result of this investigation. The latest allegations against Hill are a developing story and we’ll have any updates here at HotNewHipHop.

Shawn Kemp Pleads Not Guilty In Shooting Case

by

Last month, former NBA star Shawn Kemp was charged with first-degree assault after firing a handgun outside a mall in Tacoma, Washington. The charges reportedly stemmed from a video showing the incident, which occurred in March 2023. At the time of the charges, Kemp’s attorney indicated that he would plead not guilty. Kemp had been arrested at the time of the incident but was released without being charged. The charges came over a month later.

“Today, Shawn Kemp learned that the Pierce County Prosecutor’s Office elected to file charges against him,” attorney Scott Boatman, “He will be entering a plea of not guilty at his upcoming arraignment. Kemp has been fully cooperative with the police and the prosecutor’s office throughout this process. He is confident that once the jury hears from the witnesses and sees the evidence at trial, they will conclude that he was justified in defending himself that afternoon. He has retained the law offices of Aaron Kiviat and Tim Leary to defend these charges.”

Kemp Files Not Guilty Plea

On May 4, Kemp officially filed a plea of not guilty at Pierce County Courthouse. He would remain free on the charge of first-degree murder, with the conditions that he surrender any firearms and not attempt to contact the alleged victims. However, Kempt has maintained throughout these proceedings that he was acting in self-defense at the time of the shooting. Kemp will return to court next month for a second hearing on the charge. Kemp did not speak to the media upon leaving the courthouse with his attorney. It is not the first time Kemp has faced legal trouble. He was arrested twice on possession charges in 2005 and 2006.

Kemp spent 14 seasons in the NBA, mostly with the Seattle SuperSonics. A six-time all-star, Kemp retired in 2003 after a single-season stint with the Orlando Magic. Aside from the SuperSonics and Magic, Kemp also spent time with the Cavaliers and Trail Blazers. Additionally, he attempted a comeback for several years, but to no avail. Furthermore, He now owns several businesses in the Seattle area. The most famous of his ventures is a dispensary called Shawn Kemp’s Cannabis.

Iowa State Football Player Arrested On Rape Charges

by

Aidan Ralph, a redshirt sophomore at Iowa State, was arrested on Wednesday. Ralph was charged with the violent rape of a woman that allegedly occurred at Ralph’s home in December 2022. According to an affidavit, Ralph allegedly accused the woman of cheating on him and assaulted her. Ralph reportedly shoved her into the staircase, fracturing her spine. Instead of calling an ambulance, Ralph reportedly laid on top of the woman and raped her. Ralph was also charged with misdemeanor domestic violence charges.

It’s the latest high-profile rape case stemming from the college sphere in recent years. San Diego State punter Matt Araiza was accused of raping a minor at a party, an accusation that led him to be cut soon after being drafted in the 2022 NFL Draft. He and a number of other players were accused of gang-raping the minor at a frat party. However, no charges were filed in Araiza’s case. The records in the investigation of accusations surrounding Araiza were recently unsealed.

Ralph Granted Bond But Remains Jailed

According to reporting from the Ames Tribune, a judge has set an $11,000 bond for Ralph. However, at the time of writing on May 4, Ralph remains in jail. Furthermore, the judge granted a protective order for Ralph’s alleged victim, meaning that Ralph cannot contact her. Ralph will face a hearing on the charges on May 15. Iowa State has suspended Ralph indefinitely. Ralph had never taken the field for the Cyclones.

The arrest comes during a period of uncertainty within the NCAA. A recent survey of 70 male college athletes found some disturbing results. “The majority of the athletes It’s On Us spoke with had minimal awareness of their institution’s policies, procedures, and resources for survivors, and many did not know who their Title IX Coordinator was,” the study states. “This lack of awareness was a barrier for athletes who desired more direction and resources when experiencing a disclosure.” Title IX is a collegiate mandate that covers everything from fair representation in sports to the handling of sexual assault. While campuses have spent millions on sexual assault awareness, it’s clear that the problem is still prevalent as ever.

Medical Expert Says Jonathan Majors’ Accuser Is Lying

by

Jonathan Majors was arrested on March 29 in New York City. The 33-year-old actor was charged with misdemeanor strangulation, assault, and harassment. The charges stemmed from an alleged incident with his girlfriend at a nightclub. While Majors has denied the allegations, more women have since come forward with similar stories.

Majors is expected to appear in court on May 9 for his first hearing related to the charges. Earlier this week, Majors’ accuser was granted a full temporary order of protection. Colloquially known as a restraining order, a temporary order of protection prevents an alleged abuser from contacting their alleged victim. Majors did not object to the order, with his lawyer saying “This is standard in cases such as this, and we consented because Mr. Majors wants nothing to do with the woman who assaulted him.” The actor’s defense since his arrest is that he was the victim in the reported altercation.

Majors Retains Medical Expert

However, that was not all that Majors’ attorney, Priya Chaudry, had to say about the proceedings. According to Chaudry, they have retained a medical expert who is willing to testify against Majors’ accuser. “We recently provided a forensic medical opinion from a Board Certified Emergency Medicine Doctor and Trauma Specialist who has examined the photos and videos of the woman and concludes, without hesitation, that the woman did not have any injuries at the nightclub and the injuries she later sustained did not come from Mr. Majors”.

Furthermore, Chaudry called out the Manhattan DA’s office in light of this claim. “In fact, the forensic medical expert’s opinion shows that the woman is lying. It is disturbing that even when presented with this incontrovertible evidence, the District Attorney continues this false case.” Chaudry did not elaborate further on what this evidence entailed. However, that will likely be made apparent in the upcoming hearings. Majors has been dropped from a number of projects since the allegations were made public. However, he remains part of the MCU at the time of writing and will appear in Season 2 of Loki later this year. HotNewHipHop will have all the updates in the case as they occur.

Jonathan Majors Accuser Granted Protection Order

by

On March 25, actor Jonathan Majors was arrested in New York City. The 33-year-old, known for Creed III and Ant-Man And The Wasp: Quantumania, was charged with misdemeanor strangulation, assault, and harassment. The reported victim was his girlfriend, who has not been named in the interest of her privacy. However, more women have since come forward with similar accusations.

Once a star on the rise, Majors has now become an industry pariah. He is reportedly a free agent after being dropped by his management. Furthermore, he has been removed from several upcoming projects. Notably, Marvel has not yet released any information as to whether he will remain as Kang in the MCU. Majors has maintained his innocence throughout the proceedings. Additionally, Majors alleges that he was the victim, not the woman pressing charges. However, there now there has been a major update in his case.

Manhattan DA Grants Protection Order

Majors’ alleged victim in the March 25 assault has been granted a temporary order of protection. Colloquially known as a restraining order, a temporary order of protection prevents an alleged abuser from contacting their alleged victim. It is often put in place to protect reported victims prior to trial proceedings. “Today a judge granted a Full Temporary Order of Protection for the victim, per the People’s request and with the consent of defense counsel,” Manhattan District Attorney’s Office press secretary Doug Jones said in a statement.

A statement was also issued by Majors’ attorney, Priya Chaudry. “This is standard in cases such as this, and we consented because Mr. Majors wants nothing to do with the woman who assaulted him.” Chaudry additionally said that we recently provided a forensic medical opinion from a Board Certified Emergency Medicine Doctor and Trauma Specialist who has examined the photos and videos of the woman and concludes, without hesitation, that the woman did not have any injuries at the nightclub and the injuries she later sustained did not come from Mr. Majors”. Majors is set to make two more appearances in 2023, after Creed and Ant-Man. Loki Season 2 is set for release in September. Meanwhile, Magazine Dreams, where Majors plays a bodybuilder, will premiere in December. Majors is due to appear in court in relation to the charges on May 9.

Jonathan Majors’ Assault Allegations Cause Friends To “Keep Their Distance”: Report

by

Oh, how the mighty have fallen. No one could have anticipated the dramatic turn in store for Jonathan Majors earlier this year when the premiere of his two latest movies was quickly followed by an arrest and assault charges. The embattled actor is facing accusations of attacking a woman in a cab. Of course, his legal team has maintained his innocence since the story first broke. To support their statement, lawyers previously shared iMessages from the reported victim. However, many social media users believe they only make Majors look more guilty.

In addition to that, the 33-year-old has been dropped by his management team. He also will no longer be attending the upcoming Met Gala. In recent days, a handful of other women have come forward with allegations aimed at Majors, causing further turmoil to unravel in his life. “It’s no surprise that his phone is ringing much less these days. That is what happens in all walks of life — but especially in Hollywood. Friends turn cold,” a source has told Page Six of the latest update. “This could not have happened at a more worse time [for his career],” they added.

Jonathan Majors’ Assault Allegations Cost Him Big

Majors was undeniably riding a high earlier this year. Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania arrived in February, and Creed III made its debut the month after. “You can’t deny that the man is a talented actor, but right now he has to reassess and gather a whole new team,” the outlet’s insider also noted. Just last week, it was revealed that the California-born entertainer has been cut from several upcoming projects, including Otis And Zelma, and Nadia Latif’s The Man In My Basement.

He’s also expected to appear in various Marvel projects soon, and at this time, there have been no reports of any changes there. With the latest allegations against The Harder They Fall actor, however, that may be reconsidered down the road.

Odell Beckham Jr Named In Assault Investigation

by

Odell Beckham Jr. was set to make his return to the NFL this year. After spending the 2022 season injured and teamless, Beckham Jr. became a key piece in the Lamar Jackson saga. Desperate to keep Jackson in Baltimore, the Ravens signed Beckham Jr. to a one-year deal worth up to $18 million. The quarterback and wide receiver were seen spotted celebrating the move at a Miami nightclub. However, Jackson is yet to revoke his trade request, or officially sign his non-exclusive franchise tag.

While Beckham Jr. has been a source of some drama on and off the field, he has rarely faced legal issues. His most notable run-in with law enforcement came in November 2022, when he was escorted off a flight in Miami just before takeoff. Beckham Jr. reportedly refused to put on his seatbelt and was unresponsive when flight staff attempted to wake him. However, a new lawsuit could spell trouble for the receiver.

Woman Claims OBJ Assaulted Her

According to a TMZ report, the LAPD has opened an investigation into reports of an assault at the Los Angeles nightclub Delilah. Sources told TMZ that a woman has alleged that Beckham Jr. put his hand around her neck. The incident reportedly happened some weeks ago and has only recently moved to the investigation stage. No further details were made available to TMZ by their sources. The NFL and Baltimore Ravens are yet to comment on the allegations.

Beckham Jr.’s representative told TMZ that neither they nor Beckham Jr. had been contacted by police. Furthermore, they were not aware that an investigation was underway. They went on to “vehemently” claim Beckham Jr. was innocent and had done nothing wrong. TMZ also reached out to John Terzian, the owner of Delilah. Terzian also denied the allegations, stating that “the claim is false. There is no evidence of this person even being in the area where she claims the incident occurred.” It’s pertinent to mention that while “investigation” sounds serious, it is a formality of law enforcement. This story is only just being made public but be sure to check back with HotNewHipHop for future updates.
