Lil Wayne Thanks GloRilla For Being The Only Person Who Greeted Him At The White Party

by

Lil Wayne was among the more famous guests at Michael Rubin’s Fourth of July White Party, but it seems like he didn’t hang out much. Moreover, he recently spoke during an interview about the experience, which also hosted his Young Money partner, Drake. However, Weezy shouted out GloRilla as “the only person that really came up to me and really hollered at me,” which is a bit surprising out of context. In fact, it makes Drizzy’s picture with Glo at the bash all the more curious, as fans were already commenting on how old the Toronto superstar looks after his Kendrick Lamar battle.

Furthermore, it’s interesting that Lil Wayne chose to shout the Memphis femcee out in this way when they were all there, and especially when she herself hung out with Drake. We don’t know if he’s really serious about this or if he’s referring to something else, but either way, there’s another rapper that probably wanted to see him for sure and didn’t get the chance. Birdman hosted the Cash Money reunion at the Essence Festival in New Orleans recently, but Tunechi did not appear alongside his Hot Boys brethren and others. Instead, he just had a solo set during the celebrations, which disappointed many.

Lil Wayne Shouts Out GloRilla

As for GloRilla, we know that she has a pretty close relationship with another massive star: Rihanna. Both have shown each other a lot of love recently after RiRi posted a video of her rapping Glo’s “TGIF” to her boo, A$AP Rocky. In fact, she even DM’d the Megan Thee Stallion collaborator about when her album was dropping. The irony in that is that she could ask the Barbadian creative the very same thing, as fans have wanted R9 for almost a decade now.

Meanwhile, Lil Wayne had another celebrity shoutout to make recently, but it wasn’t a very positive one. He challenged a viral tweet that claimed Justin Timberlake was the most famous Green Bay Packers fan, as he has repped the team for a long time and is arguably more relevant right now than J.T. Still, that’s just a speculative interpretation of what the clap-back meant, as it was probably just a joke anyway. Perhaps we shouldn’t take this remark too seriously, but no matter what, we’ll never complain about someone showing GloRilla some well-deserved love.

Cam’ron Dresses Like OJ Simpson For Fourth Of July Celebration

by

Cam’ron is no stranger to controversy. His career has been littered with bold actions and statements, and Fourth of July proved to be a textbook example. The rapper attended a Fourth of July costume party in Las Vegas, and dressed up as none other than OJ Simpson. Cam’ron went the whole nine yards with the costume, too. He donned a complete football uniform, complete with helmet and Simpson’s name on the back of the jersey. Cam even posted a video of him wearing the outfit on Instagram.

“OJ was here!!!! Happy INDEPENDENCE DAY,” he wrote in the caption. “This ain’t really Our holiday.. But it Feels good not to have to answer to nobody!! #FreeN**ga #IIWII.” Anybody familiar with Cam’ron and Mase’s podcast It Is What It Is knows that the rapper was very close to OJ Simpson. The latter regularly appeared on the podcast to provide sports takes and make general small talk. Simpson’s death in April hit both Cam’ron and Mase hard. The duo even reflected on Simpson’s legacy during an episode of the podcast.

Cam’ron made it very clear that he came to look upon OJ like a member of his family. “I just wanna say it was great working with OJ,” he noted. “He’ll truly be missed and I love him like a real, real uncle so I’m really sorry this happened. At the end of the day, I’m glad that we did get to spend the last few months with him.” Cam’ron and Mase’s decision to have Simpson on the podcast, despite his controversial past, was criticized by many. Both rappers defended Simpson publicly, and asserted that he was found not guilty of the crimes he was accused of back in 1995.

Cam’ron, in particular, claimed that he did not think Simpson was a criminal. If he did, he would have not had him on the podcast. “Look, if he was guilty we wouldn’t have him on the show,” the rapper explained to Complex. He then posited that the continued criticisms of Simpson was due to his race. “Y’all want to keep convicting an innocent man. He’s innocent. If it was somebody else whiter, y’all would say ‘oh he’s innocent.’”

Summer Walker & Her New Man Let Their Love Sparkle Like Fourth Of July Fireworks On IG

by

How do those lyrics in Katy Perry’s smash hit go? “Baby, you’re a firework / Come on, let your colors burst”? Summer Walker and her new man, Coop Cashington, were certainly people “in awe, awe, awe” after sharing some pics from their night on the Fourth of July. According to The Shade Room, the Georgia born R&B star uploaded the recap to her Instagram, as well as her Story. The pretty fresh couple took a yacht out on the water, presumably to cuddle up privately and get a stunning view of some fireworks. Summer and Coop were patriotic with their beach-ready outfits as well. The “Playing Games” artist sported a cute matching white bikini set along with a same-colored lacey skirt cover and sun hat.

Cashington opted for a shirtless look but threw on some light blue swim trunks and a navy-blue Atlanta Braves flat bill cap. Both look extremely lovey dovey while sharing loads of smooches in addition to candid and plandid poses. Even though they appear to be enjoying each other’s company under the night sky, fans are still not seeing how this is going to last long. The Neighborhood Talk‘s comment section was absolutely filled to the brim with skeptics, with one person writing, “She date anybody that DM her”.

Another adds, “She like j Lo, both are allergic to being single. Like please have some alone time & heal”. Coop Cashington was also receiving a lot strays. “The type is dusty”. “All her n****s be looking fruity”. “Whooooaa I can hear the lyrics now ‘You wasnt my type but I let you pipe’ cause wtf 🤣🤣🤣🤣”. It is never good to see people hate on love for another. But you have to give it up to them for being consistent. Ever since him and Summer Walker made things official back in April, the former was accused of harassment, revenge porn, and more. Whether they last or not remains to be seen. However, we are happy to see Coop and Summer happy.

What are your thoughts on Summer Walker celebrating the Fourth of July with her new boyfriend? Do you see this couple lasting for a long time, why or why not? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding Summer Walker.

Travis Scott & Jake Paul Link Up & Get Wild At Michael Rubin’s White Party

by

Michael Rubin’s White Party this year on Thursday (Fourth of July) was an absolute smash with far too many A-list stars to name in attendance. Drake was there, most likely coping through a great time with the release of Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” music video dissing him into the dirt. But there were a lot of other celebrities there that weren’t encumbered by rap beefs, including a new friend duo that provoked plenty of laughs on the Internet. Travis Scott and Jake Paul appeared in a viral clip, and the Houston rapper became particularly animated in a way that seemingly took Paul by surprise.

Furthermore, this is just one of many windows into this White Party, including Yeat’s many link-ups, Megan Thee Stallion and GloRilla’s performance, and Druski chilling with Tom Brady and Leonardo DiCaprio. Before this event, Travis Scott played some beach football with Quavo, Brady, and more for some pre-party fun, and these crossovers are very cool to see. We can only wonder what else everyone got up to during the festivities. After all, there are way too many egos in the mix for some shenanigans to go unnoticed.

Of course, we can also imagine that Travis Scott was quite happy to pop out and see all his friends after some recent turbulence. In the past few weeks, some new details have emerged about his Miami arrest, including some sources who claim that the whole situation occurred due to forgotten items that he had left behind at a yacht. That was a pretty bizarre moment to witness, and fortunately it seems like La Flame avoided a big hassle and everything resolved smoothly. Just goes to show that some party animals need a downer before getting right back into the action.

Meanwhile, fans are pretty excited about a potential Don Toliver and Travis Scott collab album. While the chances for this don’t look amazing, some recent statements from Don give fans a little bit more hope. They dropped albums relatively recently, and if they come through with something big soon, they would keep up a wild work ethic. It’s always interesting to see the contrast between this grind and extravaganzas like Michael Rubin’s White Party.

Stephen A Smith Blasts Michael Rubin For White Party Snub

by

Athletes, musicians, and other celebrities assembled in the Hamptons for the 4th of July. The star-studded bash was being thrown by Michael Rubin, the billionaire CEO of sports merchandiser Fanatics. It’s the third year that Rubin and his partner Camille Fischel have thrown a White Party for the 4th of July. There was a rooftop dance floor and contemporary art galore. Meanwhile, Lori Harvey filmed an impromptu TikTok fashion show in the kitchen. The food was top-of-the-line, including pizzas from Mark Iacono. Meanwhile, celebrity liquors could be spotted on every surface.

Entertainment was provided by Usher and Ne-Yo, while Travis Scott and Jack Harlow served as DJs for the rest of the night. Finally, the night was closed out by a fireworks show courtesy of Grucci, the family behind the Macy’s 4th of July show. However, one person who wasn’t there was Stephen A. Smith. Furthermore, the ESPN veteran seemed pretty upset about not getting an invite. He addressed the snub on a recent episode of The Stephen A. Smith Show.

Smith Complains About White Party Snub

“I got a little beef with my man, Michael Rubin,” Smith began. “You know, there was this little shindig in the Hamptons, a star-studded event in the Hamptons. I’m seeing Beyoncé and Jay-Z there. I’m seeing J.Lo there….I mean the list goes on and on. I see…I see the outfit on Kim [Kardashian]…I see the fellas there. Micah Parsons, James Harden was there. Joel Embiid was there. Jayson Tatum was there. Tobias Harris was there. You know, Tom Brady was there. Michael Rubin, I got no invite man. It’s a’ight though. Thought I was your homie. Now you act like you don’t even know me.”

He continued. “I understand, Michael Rubin. I understand, alright? Looked like a good time. I don’t know who looked the greatest. No one ever looks better than Beyoncé to me, just so you know. But J.Lo is right there. Kim Kardashian is right there. You got to give credit where credit is due. You know, I heard Taylor Rooks was there. She in this industry, she’s in the sports industry. How Taylor Rooks get invited but I don’t get an invite? Well, we know the answer as to why, is that I don’t look like Taylor Rooks.” However, Smith saved what could be construed as an egregiously sexist comment about the TNT/Bleacher Report personality by saying she has a “bright future in the industry.”
