Dwyane Wade Has Sexuality Questioned After Posing In Blue Collar Attire For GQ

by

Dwyane Wade is one of the most legendary shooting guards in the entire history of the NBA. Overall, he is a player who is beloved by Miami Heat fans. After all, he brought three NBA titles to that team, which is nothing to sneeze at. Although some people feel as though the Heat should have won more with LeBron, D-Wade is still a great ambassador for that franchise. When all is said and done, he will likely go down as the team’s most legendary player. Even if he wasn’t necessarily the best.

These days, Wade has been raising his family and having a good time with his wife, Gabrielle Union. However, some people have been exceptionally negative as it pertains to Wade. With Zaya Wade’s transition in mind, some have put the man’s parenting into question. Moreover, whenever he debuts a new fashion look, people try to question his sexuality. It must be extremely frustrating for Wade, but he doesn’t seem to let it get in the way of whatever he wants to do. Case in point: his latest GQ photoshoot.

Dwyane Wade For GQ

This shoot was for GQ‘s Denim’s New Age issue which is coming out next month. Overall, Wade can be seen wearing a pair of jeans, black cowboy boots, a white t-shirt, and a neutral hat. It is an inoffensive outfit that led to some pretty offensive comments. “He doing this while Gabby Union at home mowing the lawn,” one person wrote. “Ok lil nas wade,” said another. The implications of the comments were pretty obvious, and it is bizarre to see so many people take something so simple and make it negative. That said, it is good to see Wade ignoring the hate and doing his own thing.

JAY-Z Unsure Whether He’ll Headline A Super Bowl Halftime Show, Discusses Racist History Of “Cowboy”

by

JAY-Z says he’s unsure whether he’ll headline a future Super Bowl Halftime Show and that selecting himself to do so too early would have been “selfish.” He addressed the idea of taking the main stage during an interview with Entertainment Tonight on the red carpet of the premiere of The Book of Clarence.

“I don’t know,” JAY-Z said. “I thought it would be selfish to pick myself too early, so maybe one year.” He also praised Usher, who will be performing at the game, next month. “He’s one of the greatest performers that we’ve seen in our time,” he said. “I think he’ll take his rightful place.”

JAY previously revealed that he rejected an offer to perform at the Super Bowl during an interview with The New York Times in 2021. He explained that the NFL only gave him the opportunity on the guarantee that he’d bring Kanye West and Rihanna up to perform “Run This Town.” He said: “Of course I would have. But I said, ‘No, you get me.’ That is not how you go about it, telling someone that they’re going to do the halftime show contingent on who they bring. I said forget it. It was a principle thing.”

Elsewhere at The Book of Clarence premiere, JAY discussed the history of the term “Cowboy.” He said: “I believe the term ‘cowboy’ was created as a slur for Black people. I think that’s where the term comes from. In my research of history, it was a slur, and obviously like most things, we made it look so good they was like, ‘give that back.’” Be on the lookout for further updates on JAY-Z and the Super Bowl Halftime Show on HotNewHipHop.

Nipsey Hussle’s Friend Cowboy On Eric Holder’s 60-Year Sentence: “Justice Was Definitely Served”

by

Nearly four years after the death of Nipsey Hussle, his accused killer, Eric Holder, was finally sentenced to jail time. A jury convicted Holder last July of first-degree murder and attempted voluntary manslaughter following a lengthy trial. However, it was only this week that a judge handed down a 60-year prison sentence. The high-profile case earned coverage across the globe while Holder and his attorney tried to reduce the charge from first-degree murder, which was ultimately denied.

Holder will likely spend his remaining years behind bars. At the time of his sentencing, he was 33 years old, which means that he’ll be in his 90s if he’s ever released. However, his sentencing became a relief to many friends, fans and peers of Nipsey, who’ve demanded justice since his death in 2019. In addition to first degree murder and attempted voluntary manslaughter, the jury also found Holder guilty of 2 counts of assault with a firearm, and possession of a firearm by a felon.

Cowboy Reflects On Eric Holder’s Conviction For Nipsey Hussle’s Death

A close friend of Nipsey Hussle, Cowboy, was approached by TMZ outside of the courtroom following Holder’s conviction. He explained that “justice was definitely served” but regardless of Holder’s sentencing, he said that it won’t bring back Nipsey. “60 years, that’ll hold him. It was definitely justice for Nipsey,” he said before explaining that the death of Nipset still hurts. “It’s going to hurt forever. It’s going to be an open wound forever because we’re not going to get over Nipsey… He got all this time but it’s not going to bring Nipsey back.”

Cowboy continued to explain the significance of Nipsey Hussle to his community. He also expressed his condolences to Nipsey’s family, who wasn’t in attendance at the sentencing. “I’m still grieving Nipsey,” he explained. “I could imagine how his mom, his dad, his brother – they were tight. I’m still hurt and I was just his friend,” he added. Though they might not be biologically related, Cowboy explained that Nip’s family provided him with plenty of knowledge over the years that he never got from his own family. Check out his interview with TMZ above.

Nipsey Hussle’s Friend Cowboy Speaks Outside Eric Holder Sentencing: ‘Justice Was Definitely Served’

Eric Holder, Murderer of Nipsey Hussle, Sentenced to 60 Years to Life

Eric Holder, the killer of Nipsey Hussle, has been sentenced to 60 years to life in prison. Holder was found guilty of first-degree murder.

Outside of the courtroom, Hussle’s friend Cowboy spoke on the sentence.

“Justice was definitely served,” Cowboy said. “I was never in it for the time, I just wanted to know why. 60 years, that will hold him. That was definitely justice for Nipsey.”

The sentence is handed down, but Cowboy expresses that time won’t fill the void of the late rapper.

“It’s going to be an open wound forever,” Cowboys said. “None of this is going to bring Nipsey back. He was our friend. He was our everything. It’s a big void.”

Holder killed Nipsey Hussle in 2019, and prosecutors note that after the murder, he kicked the late rapper in the head.

According to TMZ, Holder shot two additional people during the crime. In addition to first-degree murder, Hussle was found guilty of 2 counts of attempted voluntary manslaughter, 2 counts of assault with a firearm, and possession of a firearm by a felon.

According to the Los Angeles Times, Holder left Hussle after a brief encounter only to return several minutes later and shoot the rapper 11 times.

During the trial, Holder’s attorney, Aaron Jansen, did not seek acquittal but instead attempted a lesser charge of manslaughter. During his argument, Jansen argued his client was “triggered” by accusations of cooperating with law enforcement.

“This was not just a pleasant conversation between homies who are chopping it up … this was a serious accusation,” Jansen said.

One of the first witnesses was Shermi Villanueva, a 47-year-old injured in The Marathon Store’s parking lot. During Villanueva’s testimony, the last words of Nipsey Hussle were recounted.

“‘He shot me. He shot me,’” Villanueva said he heard Hussle say. “I heard it, and then I saw Nipsey fall. When I looked and see Nipsey, I started to run.”
