Ne-Yo Says He’s Down To Date Fans

Ne-Yo is no stranger to the struggles of finding that special someone. While his glaringly public divorce from ex-wife Crystal Renay is final, the R&B singer has found solace in the single life. TMZ recently caught up with Ne-Yo at LAX and asked him about his current love life. Ne-Yo told the gossip blog that he’s in a happy place these days. Additionally, the singer says it’s all about the single life right now and flying free as a bird.

Ne-Yo continued to give some more dating advice as he was walking through the LA airport. Accordingly, Ne-Yo expressed that being single has been an enjoyable experience so far. Not only that, the R&B star noted he has quite a few dating options. That does happen to come with the territory. He said he’s “moving around,” and not exclusive to one person currently. It appears Ne-Yo has done some healing since his messy divorce has finalized.

Ne-Yo Prefers Normal People

Later in the interview, the singer mentioned that his DMs have been flooded since his dating status has been revealed. Ne-Yo said they’re all potential girlfriends, and admitted that he wasn’t opposed to dating a fan. When asked if would he date a fan the “Miss Independent” singer said, “Yeah, man, that part don’t matter to me, fame don’t matter.” It’s good to see the man is down to Earth when it comes to choosing a potential partner. Looks like there’s hope for Ne-Yo fans everywhere. Lastly the gossip blog asked if the singer cared about dating someone of similar status.

Ne-Yo told the publication, “I don’t even trip off things like that.” Not only that he also shared that most celebrities are “weirdos” (who would’ve guessed?). “We’re weirdos, so I like normal people,” the singer said. “I normally just go for regular people,” Ne-Yo told the paparazzi. Since being out of his marriage, along with his current relations with his baby mama/girlfriend Sade, some normalcy doesn’t sound so bad for the R&B star. Now that the cat is out of the bag, are you rushing to Ne-Yo’s DMs? What do you think of celebrities that like to date fans? Let the HNHH crew know in the comments section below!

Lil Munchy Baby revealed in another post, as noted by Uproxx, that he graduated from Atlanta Metropolitan State College with a Mass Communications degree. “Only a few people know my story, truthfully music and my gang saved my life,” he captioned the diploma. “You could say that I was forced to go back to school but I learned to have gratitude cuz a N***a coulda been locked up. Jersey took a charge for me my first semester of college and they still kicked me out. I owe this to my mama fasho! And she helped me realize I owe it to myself. Shit took us 11 years but we here. Thank God for everything we ain’t nun without him. If you proud of me stream Pull Up today.”

As for whether Ice Spice will attend, she’s yet to respond to the request. The 23-year-old rapper has been blowing up over the last year since the release of her breakthrough single, “Munch (Feelin’ U).” In the time since, she’s gone on to reach the top 3 of the US Billboard Hot 100 with her remix with PinkPantheress, “Boy’s a Liar Pt. 2.” Outside of music, she also recently teamed up with Kim Kardashian for a new campaign for the SKIMS brand.

Drake Fans Furious After He Rescheduled Tour Dates

Drake caused an uproar online after he rescheduled his dates for his upcoming tour with 21 Savage. Moreover, a lot of people specifically took issue with the dates moving from summer of this year to this fall. After all, for such an anticipated and expensive tour, many die-hards probably made big changes to their schedule to attend. That being said, not all tour dates saw a change. New Orleans, Nashville, Houston, Dallas, Miami, and Atlanta dates moving from summer to fall were the ones that fans decried.

Of course, this simply adds to grievances with this concert trek for a lot of supporters out there. For example, the “It’s All A Blur” tour first saw criticism for its insanely high ticket prices, with some comparing it to the likes of Taylor Swift and Beyoncé shows. However, that might not be entirely the organizers’ fault, as Ticketmaster often gets flack for how they “dynamically” shift prices to accommodate for massive demand. In addition, Drake and 21 Savage added various tour dates to the trek as well, so one person’s trash in Houston will be another’s treasure in, for example, Charlotte.

Drake Fans Mad That He Changed Tour Dates Around

Still, that doesn’t make the sting any less potent for a lot of OVO goons. While it’s been a long time since Drake embarked on a tour (since 2018 to be exact), recent shows gave fans hope and proof that this one will be excellent. One of these shows was the 6 God’s run in the historic Apollo Theater in Harlem, New York City. During this and other recent performances, the “Nice For What” MC ran through his classic catalog and his most recent big hits.

Meanwhile, other aspects of the 36-year-old’s live shows left fans with a sour taste in their mouths. Specifically, his Lollapalooza set this year resulted in a late start, short performance, and a canceled livestream. If that sounds familiar, it’s because Coachella and Frank Ocean proved just weeks later that those issues can often plague festival headliners. Still, that doesn’t make it an easier pill to swallow for fans, especially when the blame is unclear. Regardless, check back in with HNHH for the latest happenings from Drake and check out fan reactions down below.

The Weeknd Refutes Idea That He Hates “Dawn FM”

The Weeknd supported Dawn FM with four singles when it dropped, including “Take My Breath”, “Sacrifice”, “Out of Time” and “Less than Zero.” However, he combined a tour for the project with After Hours, which was titled the After Hours Til Dawn tour.

Elsewhere in the conversation, The Weeknd revealed that he will be serving as the co-executive producer on a new album from Mike Dean dropping this week. “New @therealmikedean 4:23 album co-executive produced by me dropping this week,” he wrote on Twitter alongside an old photo of the 58-year-old producer. The Weeknd also confirmed that one of his recent snippets on Instagram Live will be featured on the tracklist. “This photo… I’m playing ima drop it,” he said. “The ‘mysterious’ artist gag been played out since back in 2011 house of balloon days. We gonna drop it on mike Dean album.”

The Weeknd is also preparing to release his own new music in the coming months. Ahead of his appearance in The Idol, he says he’s dropping a project for the series. “There’s a whole album. I’m not shying away from making music. It’s just adding another element to my already crowded schedule,” he told Interview Magazine, earlier this month. The Idol will premiere on HBO on June 4.

Bradley Beal Sued Over Heated Fan Interaction

Bradley Beal faced angry fans after a Washington Wizards loss last month. During the disagreement, a fan told Beal that he lost him money on a sports bet. Beal responded that he didn’t really care about the fan’s bets and let the fan know just as much. Now it looks as if Beal will be taken to court over the post-game incident. According to TMZ Sports, the fan in question, Kyler Briffa, claims that Beal got physical with him during the altercation.

Since the filing of the lawsuit, Beal’s attorney, Dan Morgan, has commented on the potential lawsuit. “No charges have been filed and he is now trying to change the narrative,” Morgan said. “We will make sure the standard is clear — you can’t harass people, call them racial slurs, talk about their family, insult their character… and then turn around a sue them on top of that.” It appears that Beal and his legal team will be taking this to court to prove no wrongdoing was done by the Washington star.

Bradley Beal Heading To Court Over Fan Interaction

According to the lawsuit, Briffa claims that Beal knocked the fan’s hat off his head during the altercation. Beal spoke to the media just days after the incident. In his comments, Beal mentioned that he didn’t like being heckled. Especially over someone’s sports bets. The incident with Beal is just one of many that players have dealt with just this season. Toronto Raptors forward Chris Boucher spoke about being called racist names during a game. As well as the recent incident between Russell Westbrook and a Phoenix Suns fan.

Heckling has long been a part of some fans’ attendance at a game. However, there’s a difference between booing a player at the free-throw line and personally calling someone out. The incidents in the case of Bradley Beal and Boucher are setting a dangerous precedent for what fans believe they can do at a sporting event. What can the NBA do to stop incidents like this from happening more often? Let us know your thoughts on the issue in the comment section. For the latest NBA news, keep it right here with HNHH.
