Drake & Latto’s Sister Brooklyn Dating Rumors Spark Comparisons To Draya Michele & Jalen Green

March 11, 2024 by newhiphopnews

The dating gossip surrounding Drake and Latto’s sister Brooklyn continues to heat up. A couple of days ago, there were photos and videos floating around on social media of the two possibly leaving a dinner date together. Further speculation occurred after fans started to break down Drake’s verse on 4batz’s remix of “act ii: date @ 8.” He sung, “How you get all of that body and face, though? / What kinda water they servin’ in Clayco? / This is me talkin’, it’s not the añejo / Ready to pop out, but we gotta lay low.”

For those who do not know, Clayco is a reference to Clayton County, Georgia. That just so happens to be the same area where Latto and her sister are associated with. However, most people were quite disgusted with Drake as Brooklyn is 21 where the OVO chief is 37. Because of the fairly wide age gap, fans are starting to compare this to Draya Michele and Houston Rockets player Jalen Green’s relationship.

In The Neighborhood Talk‘s post above, the comments section is littered with people calling both of them predators. One user writes, “Drake’s obsession with younger girls ain’t talked about enough for me. No man in his late 30’s should be after a 20-year-old.” However, there are quite a few supporting this supposed connection. “A lot of older girls are just mad that yall time is gone… and men want the young girls. they want the new new ” Additionally, there are some admittedly hilarious jokes that 21 Savage and Latto are confirmed to be dating all because Drake and him are “besties.” “Drake & 21 savage are besties connect the dots ”

What are your thoughts on Drake possibly dating Latto’s 21-year-old sister Brooklyn and it being compared to Draya Michele’s situation? Is age just a number to you, or is this messed up and why?

March 10, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Torrei Hart says that Jalen Green is to blame for Draya Michele’s controversial relationship with the Houston Rockets star. After Michele announced she was pregnant with the 22-year-old’s child, users on social media accused her of being a predator. Hart says Green was just looking for “some of the cougar.”

“I mean listen, I’m not mad at Draya at all. Draya…yeah… everybody in an uproar talking bout ‘Oh my god she old enough to be his mom. Oh my god, his mom probably watch ‘Basketball Wives.’ Yeah, his mother did watch ‘Basketball Wives’ and he probably watched it with her,” she said. “And that’s why he went after Draya. He wanted some of the cougar, he wanted some of that cougar snatch. He wanted some of that. Don’t get it twisted. Listen, if he wanted to pull out he would’ve pulled out. He did pull out. That cougar had him in a chokehold.”

On Saturday, Michele celebrated International Women’s Day by reflecting on motherhood. She says that it gives her “purpose” in life. “As women, we navigate through so much, often leading us to question, ‘What is my purpose?’” she began the post. “For me, the magic lies in motherhood and the awe-inspiring ability to bring life into this world over the span of two decades. It’s my superpower. And if anything can surpass the wonder of being a woman, it’s the privilege of bringing another woman into existence. We are overjoyed to share our love for you, little girl. I’m am excited to speak words to the daughter I never thought I’d have. We are anxious about your arrival, but take your time — this world can be tough. But know you are being brought into a space of love, security, and adornment. #28weeks #7months #comingMay2024 #girlmom.”

Draya Michele Speaks On Having More Kids In Resurfaced Interview

March 9, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Draya Michele‘s past comments on having children are resurfacing on social media in the wake of her announcement that she is pregnant with Houston Rockets star Jalen Green’s son. Speaking with The Shade Room back in September, she admitted she wanted to have one more child, and wasn’t concerned whether she was in a relationship to do it.

“Yeah, I want more kids. Like, one I think,” she said before discussing her relationship specifically. “I think the question you’re asking me is if I wanted more kids and I feel like I want more kids. And, I feel like, at this point in my life, the relationship is amazing to have, but that’s not what I’m basing having a kid on because I’m very non-traditional. I feel like you can co-parent without being in a relationship. Maybe just two people say, ‘Hey, you want a kid. I want a kid. Let’s just have a kid. And let’s just see.’ I’m very free-spirited. I’m very open.”

Draya Michele Seemingly Responds To Criticism Over Jalen Green Relationship

March 9, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Draya Michele has seemingly hit back at critics calling her a “predator” following her recent confirmation that she was pregnant with Jalen Green’s child. “Get comfortable being misunderstood. Only a fraction of people will be able to truly grasp your essence. You are not on anyone else’s timeline of comprehension. Also, it’s none of your business how others choose to perceive you. Most High sees you clearly – let that be enough,” read a tweet from a self-proclaimed medicine woman that Michele shared to her Instagram story.

The “predator” claims were taken up by public figures such as Joe Budden. “We’ve seen so many NBA stars lose their career, and everything, because of women like this,” Budden said. He also went after co-host MeLyssa Ford, who didn’t appear to have an issue with the relationship. “We don’t have twenty minutes to explain something to you that is right there in front of you,” Budden said dismissively.

Furthermore, additional anger has been aimed at Michele after gossip outlets claimed she was once the babysitter of Green’s ex, Breah Hicks. It is unclear what the original source of this information is, nor how accurate it is. Images of Hicks and Michele together appear on Hicks’ social media. The two appeared to be close on the modeling circuit. However, there is little evidence to back up the claim that Michele was her babysitter. Despite this, the claims are being used to further demonize Michele.

Michele has been under fire ever since people began to suspect she was pregnant. The hate towards the 39-year-old reality star dates back as far as January when the rumors first emerged. Commenters online have called Michele, who found fame on Basketball Wives, a “predator” given the 18-year age gap between her and the 21-year-old Green. However, people have since defended the relationship. People have questioned why Joe Budden doesn’t get hate for impregnating a 20-something at 39 or while JAY-Z doesn’t get hate for marrying Beyonce when she was just 19.

However, fans were not quite as on board with Budden’s comments. “He loud about this but said he didn’t wanna speak on Diddy in no shape or form Joe hush ,” noted one fan. “Y’all don’t have this energy for Marques Houston tho ,” added another. Furthermore, many people pointed to Budden’s own past a source of hypocrisy. “Wasn’t Cyn Santana only like 4 years older than Jalen when Joe dated and impregnated her at 39?” asked a third commenter. Elsewhere, Ford had made a cogent point about why Green doesn’t appear to get a say in who he dates.

Joe Budden Calls Draya Michele A “Predator” As His Co-Host Defends Jalen Green Rumors

January 31, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Joe Budden has become the latest person to call reality star Draya Michele a “predator” amid the rumors that the 39-year-old year might be expecting a child with 21-year-old NBA star Jalen Green. “We’ve seen so many NBA stars lose their career, and everything, because of women like this,” Budden said. He also went after co-host MeLyssa Ford, who didn’t appear to have an issue with the relationship. “We don’t have twenty minutes to explain something to you that is right there in front of you,” Budden said dismissively.

What Is Going On With Draya Michele And Jalen Green?

A post shared by The Neighborhood Talk (@theneighborhoodtalk)

Basketball Wives and Real Housewives alum Draya Michele is facing “predator” accusations after rumors that she was pregnant emerged online. Michele is reportedly dating young Rockets star Jalen Green. For many social media users, the age gap is unacceptable, especially given that Michele’s eldest child is around the same age as Green. However, at this time, both their relationship and Michele’s pregnancy are just rumors and speculation.

However, part of the outrage beyond the age gap is Green’s apparent immaturity. In early 2023, a video went viral showing Green roughhousing with former teammate Josh Christopher. The short clip showed Christopher pinned below Green with his legs spread in the air. Green, situated between Christopher’s legs, vigorously thrusted in a simulation of a sex act for a few seconds before rolling off Christopher. Both players are seen laughing as the video ends.

How Many Kids Does Draya Michele Have?

January 26, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Since the early 2010s, Draya Michele has been captivating audiences both on and off-screen. While she first gained prominence being known as Chris Brown’s girlfriend, she has since grown into a recognizable media personality. Behind the many hats she wears as a public figure, Draya Michele is also a loving mother of two kids. However, rumors are currently going round that she is pregnant with a third child.

While it remains unconfirmed, the claim is that the 39-year-old is carrying the child of 21-year-old NBA player Jalen Green, whom she has been involved with for some time now. Although it’s just speculation at the moment, the Basketball Wives star is facing outrage, and is being labeled a predator. Nonetheless, if the rumors turn out to be true, Michele will soon be welcoming child number three. In the meantime, here are her two kids.

Kniko Howard

While his exact birth date remains unclear, Kniko Howard was conceived sometime in 2002, when his mother was 17. He is the oldest of the two kids Draya Michele has given birth to and is between 21 and 22 years old right now. In early 2016, Howard’s paternity was being debated on social media. At that time, many believed that his father was former NBA player Gilbert Arenas. However, Michele shut down those rumors before things got out of hand. In a now-deleted Instagram post from February 2016, she made it clear that Kniko’s father was not an NBA player. She shared that Kniko’s dad, who he is named after, “lives in PA and makes an honest living being a barber.” Afterward, with the topic settled, fans backed off and laid it to rest.

Although Kniko Howard is barely seen on his mother’s social media accounts, the two seem to have a sweet relationship. In 2021, already a mother of two, Draya Michele proudly sent the oldest of her two kids off to college. She captioned the photos she posted on Instagram, “Well, It’s official. I’m a college mom. I’m so proud of you son!!!!!!” Many fans were taken by surprise at how much Kniko had grown, and they congratulated both him and his mom. For the most part, Kniko Howard maintains a very low profile. Not much is known about his personal life and interests. However, right now, he should be a junior at Georgia State University, Atlanta, where he was admitted in 2021.

Jru Scandrick

A post shared by Draya Michele (@drayamichele)

On April 8, 2016, Draya Michele officially became a mother of two kids. The Real Housewives Of Hollywood star shares her son Jru Scandrick with former NFL star Orlando Scandrick. Michele announced Jru’s birth on X a week after his arrival. “I had him last week and I just wanted to take that time to enjoy him as my own little special gift,” she gushed. Since his birth, the youngster has made sparse appearances on his mother’s Instagram. Being that he is only seven years old right now, he is probably restricted from using social media, and rightly so. It is yet to be seen if Jru will choose to follow in the footsteps of either of his parents. While there’s a good possibility of that happening, he just might grow up to forge his own path.

January 25, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Despite the hate Michele was getting, many other users lamented the invasive nature of celebrity rumor culture. “In 2024 let’s normalize not being invested in what’s going on in stranger’s uteruses,” one person wrote in response to The Jasmine Brand‘s report. “So what if she’s pregnant by her boyfriend. God is good! 39 and carrying a healthy baby is blessing,” added another. “Im sorry but yall cant make everybody infantile!! That man is 21 in a national sports league. You gotta be grown at some point. Now if it was somebody Bronny age then sure but this man fully grown. Please get a grip,” argued a third.

Green, situated between Christopher’s legs, vigorously trusted in a simulation of a sex act for a few seconds before rolling off Christopher. Both players are seen laughing as the video ends.

Meanwhile, Green took to Instagram in late May to troll Ja Morant. Green was on Live, driving and listening to NBA YoungBoy when fans started pointing out the similarities to then-recent Ja Morant gun-flashing scandal. “Everybody’s commenting, ‘Don’t pull no pistol out. They wildin’, my n-gga, man. I don’t got no gun,” Green was heard telling a passenger in the car.

Draya Michele’s Rise To Fame: From Reality TV To Entrepreneurship

August 8, 2023 by newhiphopnews

She might have broken through via reality TV, but Draya Michele has surely spread her wings. Transitioning from a reality TV star to an online personality, and then a respectable entrepreneur is no easy feat. However, Draya Michele has managed all of these transitions and career pivots. Throughout her decade-long career, Michele has seen many highs and lows. Nonetheless, she has handled each of these as they came her way, making her a prominent name in entertainment today.

Recently, Michele has sparked dating rumors with basketballer, Jalen Green. The two were spotted out together which has understandably garnered much criticism. Michele is a whopping 17 years older than the NBA star. Indeed, the media personality has gained much fame for her welcoming online personality and personal style. Nonetheless, she’s also been at the center of a few controversies during her time in the spotlight.

The Rise Of Draya Michele

A Pennsylvania native, Andraya Michele Howard gained early recognition as a video vixen. She has appeared in music videos for several artists, including Quavo and Don Toliver. She eventually kicked off a modeling career, which she had shown interest in from a young age.

It wasn’t until she was cast in Basketball Wives LA in 2011 that Michele’s fame began to surge. Despite not being married to a basketball player at the time, Michele was cast on the show for her personality and history of dating some basketball stars. After leaving the show in 2015, Michele revealed she didn’t love her time on Basketball Wives. However, she has expressed gratitude for the opportunities it afforded her. Most especially, being able to start her first clothing line, Mint Swim.

Relationships And Controversies

One of Draya Michele’s earliest relationship rumors was with singer Chris Brown. She has also been rumored to be with Wiz Khalifa and DeShawn Stevenson. Her most famous relationship was with NFL player Orlando Scandrick, who she began dating in 2013, during her time on Basketball Wives. The pair announced that they had broken up a few years later in 2015, only a month after revealing that they were engaged. The couple were on and off again until 2019 when they called it quits for the last time. Draya and Orlando share a son named Jru, born in 2016.

Amidst her romantic past, Draya Michele has also found herself under scrutiny for other reasons. In 2020, she made insensitive comments on the unfolding situation between Megan Thee Stallion and Tory Lanez. These comments implied that getting shot by your lover was romantic, which the internet did not take too well. Even Megan publicly bashed Michele for her take, and she was swift to issue an apology via Twitter. However, that didn’t save her from the repercussions of her actions. The heaviest consequence came when Michele lost her role as a Fenty ambassador.

Business Ventures

She followed up with a clothing and lifestyle line named Fine Ass Girl in 2013. Subsequently, she launched a new clothing line in 2016, Beige & Coco. This was focused on a more refined and sophisticated aesthetic for women. Draya has also shown an interest in acting. She has appeared in: L.A.’s Finest, Star, The Perfect Match, and more.

Draya Michele’s Future

In line with her determination, Michele has continued to improve on her entrepreneurship endeavors with her various clothing lines. She continues to keep herself busy with new activities, such as exploring gardening. She also returned to reality TV in 2021 with the Zeus show, Doses of Draya.
