Latto Claps Back At LAX Glock Arrest Haters, Shows Out In Chanel At The Atlanta Hawks Game

by

It seems as though Latto can’t catch a break online recently, and this past weekend was no exception. She’s been her usual chipper self in the social media space. Still, Twitter followers were rubbed the wrong way after seeing her recall a previous arrest at LAX airport. The incident took place after she arrived with a loaded Glock stashed in her Birkin. “Got locked and let out in a few hours lmaooo,” the rap diva recalled.

“Booked a $75K jet to my show in Alabama and still made it on time! No cap in my rap TUH,” Latto wrote on Friday (March 17). At the time, many threw shade her way. They quickly pointed out that she shouldn’t have been surprised to face such consequences for bringing a weapon to an airport. “It’s her saying ‘TUH’ as if this proves she really a gangsta,” one user clowned the 777 hitmaker. “Whole time this Donna Karan is licensed to carry.”

Latto Claps Back at the Haters

On Saturday (March 18), the fashionista addressed the hate coming her way. “A mf answer a question for my fans and y’all think a bitch tryna flex going to jail. Lmao, what?” Latto asked yesterday afternoon. While some trolls continued to press her about the LAX incident, others stood supportively by the “Wheelie” rapper in her time of need. “You know you’ve made it when you can’t sneeze without offending someone,” one person quipped. “Literally they always in your business,” another pointed out.

While the internet drama certainly isn’t fun, the 24-year-old clearly had a great time attending the Atlanta Hawks NBA game at State Farm Arena to kick off her weekend. Looking as stunning as ever, she stepped out in a fun, single-strap Chanel dress, carrying a quilted light pink purse from the same brand. Her bronde hair was swept back into a ponytail, and the smile on her face made it evident that the haters aren’t stopping her shine. Keep scrolling for more photos and videos from Latto’s Friday night out, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.

Yung Miami Responds To “BMF” Backlash On Twitter As Trolls Clown Her Performance

by

She’s best known as one-half of the City Girls, but that doesn’t mean Yung Miami doesn’t have other aspirations outside of becoming a rap icon. Most recently she’s been pouring her energy into several different avenues. Among them are her upcoming music releases alongside JT, her Caresha Please podcast, and finally, her acting career. The Florida-born performer first showed up in Netflix’s You People. She’s since gone on to have two noteworthy TV stints as well.

Kenya Barris’ Grown-ish series hired the mother of two to play Ms. It in one episode of their fourth season. Elsewhere, 50 Cent brought Miami onto the BMF cast alongside names like Lil Meech, Kash Doll, and La La Anthony. Her appearance in season two aired on Thursday (March 9) night. It obviously left plenty of viewers upset – according to Twitter, anyway.

Caresha Brownlee, Aspiring Actress

Users haven’t been biting their tongues about the 29-year-old’s performance, some of them dubbing it “the worst acting” that they’ve ever seen. In her brief scene with Meech, Miami slaps him after hearing the bad news that her own partner has been shot. As some social media users pointed out, this is similar to the “Twerkulator” artist’s real-life situation with one of her children’s fathers, who previously lost his life.

Unfortunately, Caresha’s acting wasn’t giving the emotions that BMF fans wanted. Many were quick to criticize her for looking as though she wanted to laugh during the serious moment onscreen. As the trolls continue to clown her, the recording artist didn’t hesitate to clap back at this on Friday (March 10) afternoon. “If I’m crying why y’all laughing??? Y’all play [too] much,” she wrote.

Miami is Tired of the Trolls

In other posts, Miami showed love to those supporting her venture into acting. “So today y’all hating on @yungmiami305? She went from scamming, finessing, etc. to rapping, talk show hosting, and acting… Now y’all mad? Damned if you do, damned if you don’t!” one enthusiastic fan wrote.

“I love to see [people] win in life, elevate, and give their family the [world]!” their sweet message concluded. In response, the City Girl said, “The more they hate, the more opportunities come!! It’s only the beginning for me!” Read more Twitter reactions to Yung Miami’s BMF performance here, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.

City Girls’ Awkward Rolling Loud Interviewer Responds To Backlash: “I STILL GOT PAID”

by

Rolling Loud California is over for another season, but the internet isn’t quite done talking about the hip-hop festival yet. Praise is continuing to pour in for 23-year-old Ice Spice, who brought in one of the biggest audiences of the weekend for her set, and plenty of other female artists showed their stuff too. Among them were Nicki Minaj, who made a surprise visit during Lil Wayne’s stage time, and the City Girls, who debuted a new song while they were performing.

“Piñata” is the title of the unreleased single. We have no official premiere date as of now. Still, Yung Miami previously said that new music from her and JT is coming sometime this spring and/or summer. As they put on a show, rapping old favourites from their discography, as well as more recent arrivals, the City Girls reminded audiences exactly why they love them. From their curve-hugging, coordinated outfits to the sheer excitement of securing the bag at Rolling Loud beside their best friend, the partners in rhyme looked as though nothing could ruin their mood last weekend.

City Girls Take Rolling Loud California 2023

Unfortunately, that energy didn’t last long. At one point during the festival, Caresha and Jatavia spoke with media personality Tamera Kissen, and needless to say, the interview was nothing short of unprofessional. In a clip that’s been circulating online, the host and Yung Miami go back and forth about previously linking up at an event while JT awkwardly watches on. By the time the City Girls start answering questions, things only become more embarrassing to take in.

“Did you know it’s the 50th day of hip-hop today?” Kissed asked. “No,” the REVOLT podcast host responded. “Me neither, they told me to talk about it,” the host said, obnoxiously laughing. Shortly after, she began pressing the City Girls for details on when they “last let a broke dude hit,” among other uncomfortable topics. As the video continues to circulate online, plenty of backlash is pouring in for the interviewer. At the same time, the “Twerkulator” artists are hearing praise for pushing through the weird moment.

Tamera Kissen Responds to Backlash

On her Twitter page, Kissen has had plenty to say about her chat with the City Girls. “The community really don’t f*ck with you if you ain’t full Black, let’s just be honest,” she vented online. In response, another user wrote, “No baby, it was just a really bad interview. Like… horrific. Nothing to do with race, learn and grow.” Not letting the haters get her down, the 28-year-old continued to rant about the situation in another series of tweets.

“Some FYI: When footage is raw and unedited like that and people throw things at you last min as an interviewer it’s because someone on the job doesn’t want you to do good. Nothing I haven’t dealt [with] before,” she began. “Shit really ain’t that serious. The girls that don’t like me all look the saaaaaaaaaame.” Kissen went on to compare the industry to being back in high school before reminding followers that “at the end of the day, [SHE] STILL GOT PAID.” Let us know what you thought of the City Girls’ awkward Rolling Loud interview below, and check back later for more pop culture news.

Aubrey Plaza’s Stylist Says She “Wanted Underboob” While Defending SAG Awards Look

by

This year’s SAG Awards ceremony was a celebration of some of the best in movies and TV. Unfortunately, one awkward onstage moment has been overshadowing many of the others. While the cast of The White Lotus was accepting their prize for Best Ensemble, Aubrey Plaza was reportedly informed by a costar that her “boob [was] hanging out.” Of course, the crowd couldn’t see the starlet’s full chest. Still, her Michael Kors gown did show off a bit of underboob all throughout the evening.

At this time it remains unclear exactly what was said to Plaza during the speech. Whatever it was, the angry expression on her face made it evident she wasn’t pleased. Cameras also caught her muttering obscenities like “Shit’s f*cked” and “Jesus Christ,” causing a definite stir online as viewers at home tried to piece together the drama unfolding. On Monday (February 27), a source close to the 38-year-old actress was able to provide some context.

Aubrey’s SAG Awards Slip-Up

“[Her anger] was a direct result of her almost being elbowed in her face,” they previously told DailyMail. The near-injury took place as the many performers were shuffling around the stage. Many female stars were notably being pushed to the back of the group as older male actors like Michael Imperioli and F. Murray Abraham addressed the crowd. She was obviously upset on Sunday evening. Thankfully, Plaza has since shared a photo dump on Instagram celebrating the HBO series’ big win.

In the caption, she wrote, “Best cast ever! I love these people and am so proud of this show. Thank you @sagawards.” Throughout various photos we see her celebrating, trophy in hand, on the red carpet with The White Lotus‘ other stars. She also found time to pose for pictures with Wednesday starlet Jenna Ortega, as well as Parks & Recreation costar, Amy Poehler.

Stylist Jessica Paster Speaks Out

Elsewhere online, Plaza’s stylist, Jessica Paster, is coming to the Delaware native’s defense over the look. As hateful comments have come pouring in, specifically about the garment’s fit, she’s clapped back with her side of the story. “The straps could be better adjusted. I love the colour, and hair and makeup look amazing,” one Instagram user wrote following the SAG Awards.

“Did seven fittings… For real… I wanted underboob,” Paster dished in the replies, making it known she and her client were attempting to turn heads with the gown’s centre cutout. Let us know what you thought of Aubrey’s outfit in the comments, and see our full red carpet roundup from the annual event here.

Latto Calls Out Adam22 For Posting Video Of Her On Omegle: “Corny… Adam U A Hoe”

by

For Latto lately, the drama never ends. We’re only two months into 2023, but already the Ohio-born artist is caught up in various internet spats. From facing backlash for working with embattled producer Dr. Luke on her first single of the year to now, being exposed for using Omegle by Adam22, social media is obviously becoming a source of stress for her. Thankfully, Latto has seriously thick skin to carry her through her troubles.

Over the weekend, the No Jumper creator reposted a TikTok showing the 777 artist using the controversial site. Rather than getting up to adult antics on Omegle, she and a friend were chatting with a man from India. In the clip, Latto asks their online friend, who obviously doesn’t recognize his famous face, if he has an Instagram account.

Latto Dubs Adam22 a “Hoe”

After spelling out her username for him, the man realizes that he’s talking to a celebrity. “Are you kidding me?!” he asks near the end of the TikTok, earning laughs from Latto, her friend, and countless viewers. The post has been rapidly circulating on social media, and even caught Adam22’s attention. “#Latto was on #Omegle and landed with someone who didn’t even know who she was [crying laughing emoji].”

Clearly, the 24-year-old had time on Sunday (February 26), as she went off on the media personality. “Corny. I interrupted my friend’s conversation w this man from India, talked about how I can’t wait to visit & said let’s follow each other… Tf is funny?” Latto began. “I never expected him to know who I am… Or anyone for that matter. Adam u a hoe & wouldn’t try a male rapper like this.” Ever the troll, Adam ignored the rap diva’s comments and instead shared a photo of the giant Poptart he made with the help of his girlfriend.

Other Recent Internet Beef

Earlier this past weekend, the “Wheelie” hitmaker was called out after telling Billboard that she’s a “girl’s girl” who doesn’t charge up-and-coming female stars for guest features. She obviously has a healthy roster of collaborators to substantiate these claims. However, Kodak Black’s artist VVSNCE made it known that Latto wasn’t so kind about working with her.

As you may recall, the Atlanta-based baddie dropped her debut album last year. Afterward, it was revealed that one of the men who appeared on her tracklist gave her a hard time over not replying to his DM. Many assumed that Yak was the culprit, but his artist says it was Latto’s refusal to do an exchange collaboration with her that caused their relationship to sour. Read everything VVSNCE had to say here, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.

DDG Addresses Rubi Rose Beef On “Way Too Petty,” Claps Back At Halle Bailey Fans Hating

by

The drama continues. If you thought DDG was done addressing the accusations Rubi Rose threw his way earlier this month, you’re wrong. After vehemently denying cheating on his girlfriend, Halle Bailey, the Michigan native has been regularly reminding Twitter precisely what it is that makes him such a great boyfriend. He’s made it clear that he wants to continue his relationship with the R&B starlet, though fans are becoming less and less sure they’re the perfect match.

Previously, the “Elon Musk” artist spoke about the situation in a YouTube vlog, which many viewers saw as a satisfactory explanation. Many also noted that Bailey made a brief appearance in the video, seemingly proving that their union hasn’t been tarnished as many outside spectators assume. Like any creative though, he also had to turn his pain into art, doing so in the form of a new single called “Way Too Petty” that arrived on Friday (February 24).

DDG Thinks Rubi Rose is “Way Too Petty”

Throughout his new track, DDG explicitly calls out Rose for attempting to expose him with screenshots of their alleged DMs. “Hoes screenshotting, that shit lame / Keep her on the side, she could never be my main,” he cooly rhymes. “She just wanna make it, she be f*cked for the fame / Posting pictures naked, baby, you should be ashamed.” Later on in the single, he also addresses his ex’s recent tweet about his current girlfriend wearing her old shirt.

“Tell them n*ggas do they research. I could fall off and come right back like it’s rebirth. Don’t believe the internet, it’s not that bitches t-shirt,” he cautions listeners, telling his side of the story. While her post at the time made it sound as though the Kentucky native had a problem with Bailey, she made it clear at the time that there was no beef between the two women. DDG, on the other hand, she chiefly called a “weirdo” for all of Twitter to see.

Halle Bailey Fans Come to the Rescue, DDG Responds

As the YouTuber continues to air out his drama for all of the internet to see, many of The Little Mermaid actresses’ fans are encouraging her to walk away from the relationship. “Halle get back in that sea and find another fish baby,” one Instagram user joked. “Is he trying to ruin her career?” another asked in wake of DDG’s latest controversial single. He’s clearly gotten wind of the critics and in a since-deleted tweet, he explained to them exactly why Bailey’s still standing beside him.

“‘Why tf she still fw him?’ I got a mean d*ck,” he explicitly wrote, only bringing in further backlash. As one comment on @theneighborhoodtalk’s post points out, “[DDG] is comfortable with [Halle] now and showing them true colours. She needs to run ’cause the red flags are red flagging.” Do you think the “Way Too Petty” song and the rapper’s deleted tweet are strong enough cause for a breakup? Sound off in the comments, and check back later for more pop culture news.

Chloe Bailey Responds To Followers Accusing Her Of Photoshopping Snatched Performance Photos

by

Despite their massive bank accounts, many celebrities often get caught for photoshopping faux pas on social media. Rather than hiring a professional, many will FaceTune images themselves. Usually, this promptly lands them a spot as the internet’s laughing stock for that day. Earlier this weekend, Chloe Bailey made it clear that she’s not one to alter her uploads after a fan called out her obviously snatched waist.

The speculation began after the Atlanta-born artist posted on Friday (February 17). She was wearing a skin-tight blue and white sporty outfit for a performance. “Put me on the team coach. #AllStar,” she wrote in the caption, referencing yesterday’s celebrity game. While her body has often gets praise for its bodacious shape, many are taking notice that Bailey looks particularly thin around her midsection.

“Is this real or photoshop?” one person wrote in the comments with a series of eye-roll emojis. A more positive criticism reads, “I love you girl, but the photoshop is too much here. Your body is amazing without it. This doesn’t look real.” Rather than lash out in response to the trolls, Bailey took the response as a compliment.

The “Do It” songstress replied, “I love you too. It’s the combo of a corset, latex, and the lower angle. I love my body when I have extra weight on me. I love my body when I get snatched because I’m dancing a lot.” She went on to note that the videos included later in the post match the photos. This seemingly proves that nothing has been altered on her end.

“Y’know I love editing but I’ve been working hard on my body,” she explained. “I take that as a compliment, thank you.” Many have since praised Bailey for her handling of the hate, also going on to celebrate the time she’s been putting in to achieve her physical goals.

Elsewhere in the news, the 24-year-old is facing backlash for her decision to release a single with Chris Brown. The R&B star’s allegations from various women have led many to cancel him over the years though he still maintains an impressive roster of collaborators. Read more about that here, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.

GloRilla Claps Back At Person Who Said She’s Scared Of Oakland

by

GloRilla recently responded to someone who claimed she’s scared of Oakland after fans threw water on her in the city. Moreover, they were mad that Glo didn’t perform at a nightclub when allegedly agreed to do so. However, Yo Gotti and the “F.N.F.” star herself said that promoters only paid her to host. In fact, they took offense to the fact that they thought $30K was enough for a performance. Still, someone wrote on Instagram, “The Bay Dont Play. [laughing emoji] Got Her Ass Up Outta There Real Quick.. You Got TO Respect Real Pimpin When You In Oakland. Not That Phony S**t.. [laughing emoji].”

Then, GloRilla reposted that story on her Instagram page, saying she’s not scared of Oakland or anywhere else. “Ain’t nobody scared of no damn city [laughing emoji]. 1 h* played & dassit don’t feel special.” Also, she previously tweeted her responses to the promoter’s claims that she agreed to perform. “Ain’t no h* spit on s**t !!!!! Ask dat h* how ha face feel doe. No way you think I’m performing when you paid for a hosting crazy tail self.”

In addition, Yo Gotti also defended the fellow Memphis rapper. “$30K to perform,” he wrote on Instagram with a bunch of laughing emojis. “[You] must [have] booked Lil Glo, NOT Big Glo #CMG.” Overall, it seems like a tough situation to call, given promoter Con B’s receipts online. Moreover, he claimed that Glo knew very well that they agreed to a performance. For example, he posted screenshots of a contract with her team that acknowledged the performance. Also, he already teased event-goers with the show before it was time for the afterparty. “She will be performing live…” he wrote on his Instagram story. “Not hosting, not a walkthrough. She will be performing live in Oakland, CA, TONIGHT!!”

Meanwhile, the 23-year-old still has a couple of dates left on her nationwide tour, for which this controversial afterparty happened. In addition to this new performance debacle, she handled claims of scamming from allegedly fake members of her team. While she’s caught some flack, it’s also come with insane success and she strides forward every time. Let us know what you think about this situation in the comments and log back into HNHH for the latest on GloRilla.

Ari Fletcher Twerks For Instagram Like A Pro, Claps Back At Haters Criticizing Her

by

Throughout her life, 27-year-old Ari Fletcher has faced no shortage of haters and their near-constant criticism. While some of it is deserved, such as the backlash she faced for joking about domestic violence and gun use, other comments seem to simply be rooted in jealousy. Thankfully, by now, the influencer knows how to handle shade like a professional.

Earlier this weekend, a video of the YouTuber twerking in her living room began circulating on social media. Fletcher frequently shows off her curvaceous figure, but it still never fails to turn all eyes her way. In this clip, specifically, she wears a long black dress that’s sheer enough to show her cheeks. Throughout the recording, she shakes them along to Ice Spice’s “In Ha Mood.”

“Pretty bitch like Lauren with a big ass butt, yup / Pretty face and the waist all gone,” the New Yorker rhymes in the background. Before she begins bouncing her booty to the beat, Fletcher hits what looks to be a hookah pen, sending smoke shooting upwards. A male voice hypes her up in the background, causing a confident smile to spread across her face.

@theneighborhoodtalk/Instagram

When @theneighborhoodtalk reposted the video, plenty of haters found time to share a few thoughts in the comments. “Why is this all young women do today?” one user asked. “Sit down and read a book. We’ve seen it ALL before. Body full of surgery, mind full of marbles.” Another wrote, “Everywhere on IG this girl is somewhere twerking. Are you people not tired?? What else can you do??”

Fletcher clearly got word of the trash talk, and she quickly addressed it on her Twitter. “Bitches be in the comments of a [twerking] video like, ‘Is this all you have to offer?’ Lmfaooooooo even if it was, this shit took me far,” she clapped back. “Maybe you should learn a lil one, two with yo hating ass.”

Fletcher’s curves are undoubtedly a part of the fame and fortune she presently has. Of course, they’re not the only things keeping her in the headlines. Late last month, the mother of one promptly put an Airbnb owner on blast after photos of Ari staying at her rental property surfaced online.

At the time, the influencer was filming a cooking video in the house with her beau, Moneybagg Yo. In a series of scathing posts, she made it abundantly clear that she doesn’t appreciate having her privacy violated. Read everything Fletcher had to say here, and check back later for more pop culture news.

DJ Mustard Paying For Chanel Thierry’s Living Expenses & Credit Card Bills Amid Divorce

by

Mid-way through 2022, news of DJ Mustard and Chanel Thierry’s divorce shocked many in the music industry. The long-time lovers were together for years prior to the producer’s rise to fame (12 in total). She previously described their separation as “more than heartbreaking.”

Before they were married in 2020, they had three children together. “Finally after three years we decided to take a step out on fate, and date. When I got pregnant with Kiy I was so scared, you told me ‘I got you, I got us.’ I dropped out of college, moved out my mom’s, stayed in YG’s garage for a while (yup, that’s what love will do). Then to your moms, until we got enough money to get our apt,” she recalled of how their family came to be.

Fast forward to 2023, and Mustard and Thierry are feuding like never before. According to documents obtained by Radar Online, his co-parent claims that he’s failing to meet the terms of their financial agreement. However, the California native shut down these allegations, coming back with a court filing of his own.

The DJ says that his ex is making the process difficult for them both. At the same time, he’s been paying for several of her living expenses as well as supporting their offspring.

The new documents reveal that Mustard is seeking joint legal and physical custody of their kids. As for child support, he’s willing to pay the previously agreed-upon amount of $18,342 a month. While it sounds high, Thierry originally requested upwards of $80k for the same payment.

“Chanel’s claim that I have starved her out financially since separation is a flat-out lie,” the 32-year-old writes in his filing. “From the time Chanel and I separated in May 2022, I continued to uphold my obligation to support her and the children. I continued to pay all of Chanel’s living expenses, including all of her credit card bills. I also continued paying Chanel’s housing costs and the children’s expenses including private school tuition.”

The father of three also believes his ex is disregarding their joint parenting plan. Consequently, he says the public is holding him in a “false and defamatory light.”

In response to his, Thierry disputed every saying she was being financially starved. “I cannot control what the media outlets pull from my social media page and what they infer from my writings,” she wrote. On the advice of her attorney, she’s also been “more cautious” about her social media interactions amid the divorce.

The exes began mediation early this month. The family matriarch allegedly said that the music star hasn’t been agreeing to anything “that would benefit the children and not himself.”

Before things became increasingly heated between the former couple, Mustard took a moment last spring to address some of the circulating rumours. At the time, rumour had it that Chanel cheated on him, resulting in their union’s demise.
