Stunna Girl Alleges That Ray J Took Wendy Williams On A “Drug Binge”

by

Talking about Stunna Girl, Ray J and Wendy Williams all at the same time was probably not on anyone’s bingo card. However, here we are. Apparently, Stunna Girl has some serious dirt on the singer and multimedia mogul in regard to Wendy’s troubling battle with addiction. Via her Instagram Story, she writes, “Instead of constantly being worried about me, Ray J needs to focus on what he did to Wendy Williams. She ain’t been the same since u took her on that drug binge gang”. This is quite the accusation, especially with no other evidence to support her statement.

Throughout the years, Ray J and Wendy have sustained a friendship for quite some time. There was a short period in which internet sleuths had a strong belief there was something more there. However, the two TV stars have remained platonic. With that in mind, Stunna Girl’s allegations are a little head-scratching.

However, according to the Jasmine Brand, her coming out and saying this might not be as surprising as you may think. Her and Ray J have some work history together, as she was on the Baddies South season. The “One Wish” songwriter is an executive producer for Baddies, and it seems there was a falling out between them. Stunna and her husband wanted to create content independently, and although it was reported that things were cool, Ray J allegedly said something hurtful. That led Stunna Girl to lash out at Ray J on her IG. “Stop speaking on me!!! Ur nun but a Hollywood kid who’s having a mid-life crisis at 50 fakin a gangster image once u couldn’t pay us for clout & my husband for protection anymore u started trynna be him. U even tattooed ur face like his lmaoo bye”.

What are your thoughts on Stunna Girl accusing Ray J of taking Wendy Williams on a “drug binge”? Do you expect Ray J or Wendy Williams to respond to these allegations, why or why not? Were you aware that Stunna and the R&B singer were beefing? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments.

In early April he revealed that he had dramatically reduced his Percocet usage and he has been seeing incredible results.

“Bro, I’m proud of myself. I’ve never been this happy in my life, bro. I don’t know where this came from, what the f**k going on,” Kodak explained. “My dosage so low that I can’t believe it myself. Man, I’m telling y’all, bro.” All of this self-improvement seems to have the rapper rejuvenated and it has been a treat to witness. Now, Kodak is bringing these life lessons into his music, doing so on a new single “Dis Time.”

South Florida rap standout Kodak Black took to Instagram to talk about his road to recovery, telling his fans and followers that he’s back in the driver’s seat when it comes to his abuse of prescriptions pills, specifically the opiate Percocet.

“I remember a point in my life when I was chewing a lot of Percs,” he said. “Bro, I’m proud of myself. I’ve never been this happy in my life, bro. I don’t know where this came from, what the fuck going on. I ain’t even going to say I’m anti-Perc. Like, I never took a Perc since I been home. But bro, my dosage so low that I can’t believe it myself. Man, I’m telling y’all, bro.”

Yak added, “Before I just went to jail, bro, I was taking… I can talk about this because it’s my testimony. Bro, I’m hollering at y’all, ain’t no shame in my shit. I was taking, bro, at least 100 Percs. Bro, my average was 40 Percocets. I’m telling y’all this man. I ain’t know, to the point where I look at this shit and be like, what the fuck was wrong with me, bruh? I listen to my music and be like, bro, what the fuck, fam?”

Prescription drug overdoses are the third leading cause of all deaths in the United States and Europe, only second to heart disease and cancer.

Travis Scott’s 2018 “SNL” Promo Leads To Speculation About Drug Problem

by

A recently resurfaced promo for Travis Scott’s 2018 appearance on SNL has fans debating whether the rapper has a drug addiction. In the clip, which featured Awkafina as the episode host, Scott is in a completely different galaxy. He doesn’t appear to be even vaguely aware of what is going on as Awkafina and former cast member Cecily Strong do a bit about Crazy Rich Asians. Bear in mind, this was five years ago. However, this hasn’t stopped fans from expressing modern concern about the rapper’s drug habits. “Yaaaa i never done no sh-t like this on just weed…hoping he doesn’t OD like other rappers cos clearly he don’t got anyone who cares enough to stop him from doing this on live television,” one person wrote on social media.

However, Scott has long denied that he has a drug problem. “I don’t do a lot of drugs, sh-t so I don’t even know. I only think that real drugs are like crack, heroin, and f-cking, like, you know, meth. Sh-t that really gets you f-cked ed up, sh-t that really gets you tweakin’. If you ain’t doing that, you ain’t doing drugs. I think that’s weak people need all that weird sh-t just to, like, tap into their f-cking brain. Knowledge is power, drugs [are] just, like, a mental cool down. It just put me at ease. I don’t tap into drugs to say what’s on my mind. I can do that sh-t sober, I am a drug, sober,” Scott said back in 2018.

Angus Cloud’s Ex-Manager Details Actor’s Alleged Substance Abuse Struggles

by

Angus Cloud’s former talent manager, Diomi Cordero, detailed the tumultuous end of his professional relationship with the actor during a lengthy rant on Twitter, Friday. In the posts, Cordero revealed that he met the Euphoria star while working the “graveyard shift” as a “mental health technician” at a rehab clinic.

While developing their relationship, Cordeo says he helped Cloud “regain control of his personal and professional life.” However, there were apparently many friends in Cloud’s life who were a bad influence on his sobriety. “Their reckless behavior and lack of regard for Angus’ recovery served as a significant obstacle to his progress ultimately contributing to his relapse,” he wrote.

After Cloud began abusing substances again, Cordeo says that Euphoria creator Sam Levinson pleaded with the actor to “fight for his life.” Eventually, Cordero says that Cloud’s behavior towards him “became extremely abusive,” adding that he “had gone to the extent of degrading me publicly in front of his friends & even my colleagues.” Cordero says that he made the decision to resign after Cloud was invited to attend a Versace fashion show in Europe. Just days before the trip, Cloud contacted Cordero to inform him that he’d prefer if only his friends joined him abroad.

“As a result of my resignation, for over a year, I have been pursuing the collection of my outstanding management commissions from Angus, totaling over $60,000.00,” he concluded. “Despite repeated attempts to resolve this matter amicably, I have yet to receive any of the payments owed to me. In sharing my story, I hope to not only find solace & healing but to also inspire others who may be struggling to find their voice in an industry where most are silenced. I wanted to be a testament to the power of speaking up and owning one’s truth, even in the face of adversity.”

600 Breezy Went On A “Drug Binge” To Cope With GF’s Suicide

by

Rappers often speak about their addictions, and 600 Breezy knows all too well what it’s like being dependent on a drug. Like many of his Rap peers, he struggled with addiction, telling VladTV that at 6’5″, he got down to 170 pounds. Breezy is in a much healthier place these days, but he’s revisiting times in his life when he was close to allowing his addictions to overwhelm him. “I was a skeleton,” he recalled. It occurred after his girlfriend took her own life.

“I just went on a three, four-month, just drug binge,” the rapper admitted. “Literally, at my mom house, laying on the floor, balled up in a corner with my grandad’s ashes or my cousins. Just trying to feel their energy. I just wanted to understand life more, because it was just like, ‘Aight, my girl not here, I don’t want to be here no more.’” However, there were people in his life who stepped in to remind him of all he had to live for.

600 Breezy Decides To Push Through The Pain

“She was a great part of my life. She taught me a lot. I got a lot from her. As like, she was only in my life for two years so why end my life for—you know what I’m saying?” he said of deciding against suicide, himself. “Do something stupid when I got kids that I gotta raise forever. Even when they’re 30, I’m still gonna have to be in they life. I still got my mom, I do something to myself…my mom. You know, I had to really sit back and think. I just used the drugs to cope, just to be in a numbness. Then I have to snap out of it.”

In September 2022, it was revealed that Raven Jackson, 600 Breezy’s girlfriend of two years, committed suicide. He publicly grieved the loss at the time, sharing photos of them together on social media. Breezy also posted screenshots of their last text conversation that suggested Jackson was struggling mentally and had been for some time.

600 Breezy Drank “Pints” Of Lean

Additionally, 600 Breezy revealed that the drug use resulted in him having health problems. “I ain’t seen the gym in months. It’s just like, I just wanna do drugs and do drugs and do drugs and just be numb. But, that ain’t the way to go.” Even sitting for the VladTV interview, Breezy admitted he was still in pain. “It’s killing me,” he admitted. “I was drinking Lean. Like, pints.”

“I did nothing but drugs, ’cause it was like, it was nothin’ in this world that anybody could tell me about anything. I just lost my woman, I did everything with her. If I traveled to work, she came with me. She was with me like she was my child, every day. It go from every day, talkin’ and being with somebody and now, you know. It’s like, she’s just gone. I don’t got an explanation, I don’t got nothing.” Watch 600 Breezy speak about his grief below.

Julia Fox Almost Killed Drug Dealer After Friend Overdosed

by

She dated Kanye West for about a month and now Julia Fox has become a household name. The actress wasn’t necessarily unknown before her whirlwind romance with Ye, but she certainly didn’t have the visibility she has now. Quickly, Fox has moved from a Hollywood starlet to a fashionista who is seen sitting front row and some of the world’s most coveted runway shows. Additionally, her podcast is a success, her interviews are often outlandish, and her social media reveals become trending topics.

This time, Julia Fox caught up with Elle magazine to once again detail her rise. She praises herself as a feminist who is vehemently pro-women, and prior comments she made during an interview arose. At the time, she was asked if she believed it was acceptable for women to kill men. “I think that if the man deserves it, yeah, why not? Men kill women all the time for no reason,” Fox answered.

With Elle, she was questioned about that response. Fox revealed that she had an encounter with a man she believed did deserve to lose his life at the hands of a woman. The actress claimed she had a friend who died of an overdose, so she tracked down the drug dealer who gave her the substance. Fox took her late friend’s gun, stalked the dealer’s neighborhood, and waited for an opportunity.

“I would literally, like, sit across the street in my car, put the seat all the way down,” Fox said. “And watch him through the little side mirror for hours, like coming and going.” She further added that she learned her friend died of a mix of several substances, not just what the dealer gave her. “I’m glad I didn’t kill him.”

According to reports, Sonovah Hillman Jr., the daughter of late rap legend DMX, is slated to drop a four-part docu-series to bring awareness to drug addiction and the deadly substance fentanyl, which has caused countless overdose deaths in the U.S. over the past decade.

The video used to promote Hillman’s series on GoFundMe was rooted in a 10-week D.A.R.E. program, where she discussed the people in her family that she lost due to addiction, saying, “I lost my aunt and uncle to a fentanyl overdose and my dad to drug addiction. Fentanyl is affecting every gender, race, class, and age group.”

In another part of the video, the 10-year-old Hillman explained why she chose to share her experiences with other children, saying, “I wanted to talk to other kids whose parents had died from an overdose or are still currently using,” said Hillman. She went on to say, “I came up with the idea to do a four-part docuseries on fentanyl and drug addiction. I wanted to talk to people about their experience, trauma, feelings and come up with a solution to healing.”
