Anderson .Paak & Mariah Carey Spark Dating Rumors After Fancy Dinner Linkup

by

Anderson .Paak and Mariah Carey may not share a lot on the surface (outside of being musicians), but they’ve both gone through some heartbreak. In early 2024, the Silk Sonic bandmate painfully decided to move on from his wife of 13 years, Jae Lin. Making matters worse is that they share two children, so you can only imagine the stress. Then, for Mariah, she’s been trying to move on from losing her mother Patricia and her sister Alison on the same day. However, beyond just the grieving, a close friend of her sister made some pretty bombshell claims that Mariah knew about her sibling’s declining health and did nothing to help.

We can only imagine how hard it’s been at times for both of them, so we continue to send our best to them. So, why are we comparing Anderson .Paak and Mariah Carey anyway? Well, it seems that they could be possibly dating, or at least getting there, according to TMZ. Paparazzi caught the two R&B superstars walking into a bougie chain restaurant known as Catch Steak, with this one being in Aspen, Colorado.

If you want to see the photographic evidence of their “dinner date,” check out the “[Via]” link below. If you do take a look you’ll see .Paak opening the door for Mariah while also placing his hand on her back. Moreover, there’s a closer shot of them holding hands and they were all smiles throughout! However, where the sensual tension dissipates is that sources at the restaurant say they left separately.

As it stands, they are not dating but instead working on music together. During the summer, .Paak posted some videos documenting their Electric Lady recording studio in New York City. So, it seems they were just taking some time away from work to grab a bite and kick back. However, we are holding out hope for these two potential lovebirds, especially with the holiday spirit in the air! Also, that music is hopefully coming soon as well! A possible “All I Want For Christmas” Silk Sonic remix?! Yes please!

DJ Akademiks Breaks Down The Gunna, Chloe Bailey, Burna Boy & Stefflon Don Drama

by

DJ Akademiks has chimed into all the relationship speculation around Gunna, Chlöe (Chloe Bailey), Burna Boy, and Stefflon Don. For those unaware, Chloe and Burna are now reportedly dating based on some social media speculation, and while the latter was previously romantically linked to Stefflon Don, the former was once rumored to be in a relationship with the Georgia rapper. Ak thinks that the Bailey sister is now “dating up” when it comes to her alleged partners’ successes, and from there, he went on to scour Twitter for more videos, pictures, and bits of updates. It’s a tangled web, but a compelling one nonetheless.

Furthermore, the last update that we got on this was that Burna Boy and Gunna actually linked up recently amid these Chloe Bailey rumors. This surprised a couple of fans who assumed that their supposed romantic commonalities would cause tension or at least distance, but it seems like that isn’t the case. Then again, it also serves as a piece of evidence against these rumors, so we will have to wait for someone to break the ice.

DJ Akademiks Speaks On Burna Boy, Gunna, Chloe Bailey & Stefflon Don

Meanwhile, another key element of these Burna Boy, Chloe Bailey, and Gunna rumors is the presumed reaction of Stefflon Don. Fans think that she shared an old video of Burna giving her a Rolls-Royce as a way to respond to this dating speculation. We don’t know for sure if Don really wanted to throw any shade here or if there’s another explanation, but either way, fans became very interested in hearing what she might have to say. After all, with so many moving parts to these rumors, Internet gossipers need all the information they can get to reach their conclusions.

Regardless of what goes down in the near future, Burna Boy and Chloe Bailey seemed to have a great time these days, and hopefully more good times follow. As for Gunna and Stefflon Don, people can only speculate and wait for any potential reveal, but we doubt we will know any of this for sure. That doesn’t mean that fans won’t continue to gossip and spread these rumors around, but for now, there’s plausible deniability all around.

by

Travis Hunter has deleted his Instagram page as rumors continue to surface about his fiancee, Leanna Lenee. The latest drama revolves around a video circulating on social media, which allegedly shows her dancing and twerking with another man at a party. Other critics have targeted a video of Colorado head coach Deion Sanders seemingly asking Lenee to stand up in support of Hunter at his Heisman trophy presentation.

The projected top-5 NFL draft pick has already spoken out in defense of his fiancee while streaming live on Twitch. After describing the criticism as “draining,” he added: “Why would I break up with my girl because the Internet want me to break up my girl? … Just leave me alone.”

When DJ Akademiks shared Hunter’s latest social media move, fans spoke out in support in the comments section, although many were still critical of Lenee. “Hate that he seems like a super nice kid who’s about to learn stuff the hard way,” one user wrote. Another added: “Its SAD how evil this world is he such a good kid that deserves support if his girl is who she is its GOD only can judge her she have the right to change if its her pass but know it’s bullying and evil yall perfect? Travis dont deserve this treatment sad world.”

Travis Hunter Deactivates Instagram

Fans haven’t been the only ones to criticize Hunter’s relationship with Lenee. Former NFL stars Dez Bryant, Antonio Brown, and Nate Burleson as well as Bow Wow and more celebrities have discussed the drama in recent days. Check out the status of Travis Hunter’s Instagram page below.

Cardi B Fans Accuse Offset Of Trying To Compete With His Ex In This Bizarre Way

by

It’s no secret that things between Cardi B and Offset have been tense lately. The two artists decided to go their separate ways officially over the summer, filing for divorce amid her pregnancy with their third child. While the “Enough” rapper says her goal is to foster a healthy co-parenting relationship with her ex, it seems as though it’s been tougher than she might have expected.

Last week, for example, she put him on blast on X after they were spotted partying at the same club. She accused him of “trying to push this narrative” that she wants to get back together and more. “F**k you, b***h,” she said at the time. “I will really violate and crash out for real. Stop. Leave me the f**k alone. I f***ing hate you, I wish you’d die. That’s how much I f***ing hate you, b***h.” She didn’t stop there, however, urging the former Migos member to sign the divorce papers so they can settle this once and for all.

Offset Raises Eyebrows By Showing Off Holiday Decor Amid Cardi B Divorce

Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like their feud will be dying down anytime soon. Some social media users even think Offset is trying to compete with Cardi in an unexpected way. Recently, she hopped online to show off her extravagant Christmas decor, which includes several floral-inspired trees in what appears to be the front entrance of her home. Shortly after her post, Offset decided to show off his own decorations. He also flaunted several large trees, as well as realistic indoor snow, giant reindeer statues, countless presents, and more.

Immediately, fans began to theorize that he was trying to one-up Cardi with his post, though this remains unconfirmed. “Trying to compete with Cardi is cr*zy,” one Instagram user writes in The Neighborhood Talk‘s comments section. “Cardi’s looks better. He’s trying to compete,” another theorizes. Hopefully, Cardi and Offset will work things out sooner rather than later, if only for the sake of their kids.

Burna Boy Links Up With Gunna Amid Chloe Bailey Romance Rumors

by

Recently, Gunna and Burna Boy were spotted together at what appears to be a studio in Lagos. The unexpected link-up has earned big reactions from social media users for a couple of reasons. For one, they’re eager to hear what exactly the duo could have been working on. Most fans, on the other hand, are more concerned about both of their rumored romantic ties to Chloe Bailey.

For those who don’t recall, Bailey and Gunna have been sparking dating rumors intermittently since 2021. In October of 2022, she even admitted that her song “For The Night” was written about him. In the same breath, however, she said she was single. Most recently, they raised eyebrows when they both joined Offset for a show in Los Angeles in March. After the event, Bailey posted a series of photos on Instagram, and one of them showed her posing with Gunna. Of course, this didn’t confirm anything, but it got fans talking nonetheless.

Burna Boy & Gunna Could Have Something On The Way

Just last week, fans began to suspect that the songstress could have a new romance on her hands after she was spotted getting up close and personal with Burna Boy at a nightclub in his home country of Nigeria. The two of them proceeded to leave the club holding hands, expectedly resulting in theories that they’re an item. They’ve yet to address these theories head-on, but their body language during the outing certainly suggests they’re more than friends. For this reason, Burna Boy and Gunna’s link-up took fans by surprise.

They’re sounding off about it in The Neighborhood Talk‘s comments section, making it clear that they did not see this one coming. “I honestly think her and burna boy is a PR stunt ngl I just don’t believe it,” one writes. “They so corny for this lol men be messy!” another claims. It remains unclear exactly what they might have been cooking up, or if Bailey will be involved in any way.

Jeezy “Does Not Feel Safe” Letting Ex Jeannie Mai Walk Around His House

by

Recently, Jeezy raised concerns amid his split from Jeannie Mai and asked the court to enforce some guidelines for her upcoming visit to his home. In Touch exclusively reports that the former pair went back and forth in court over furniture purchased during their marriage in November. According to legal documents obtained by the outlet, Mai claimed to have property at Jeezy’s house that she needed to pick up. The judge has given her 21 days to pick up the items, which reportedly include trophies, clothes, books, and more.

Jeezy said he was “perfectly fine with [Jeannie] coming to his residence to retrieve her personal property.” He added, however, that he has “legitimate concerns about Jeannie being able to walk through the whole house.” The rapper alleges that in September of 2023, Mai came to the house and downloaded footage from his security system. Reportedly, it showed him locking his doors while holding a gun. He accuses her of using this footage to “justify withholding” their daughter from him.

Jeezy Accuses Jeannie Mai Of Downloading His Security Footage

“[Jeezy] does not feel safe having [Jeannie] in his home. Given [Jeannie’s] history of attempting to destroy [Jeezy’s] career with misleading information, [Jeezy] would have no way of knowing if [Jeannie] is planting listening devices or cameras in his home,” his lawyer wrote. “[Jeannie] is angry about the parties divorce and she is revengeful. In addition, the mere presence of [Jeannie] inside [Jeezy’s] home and personal space, after the highly contested nature of the divorce case, would absolutely destroy [Jeezy’s] peace and tranquility, as well as invade his privacy.”

He’s asking that instead of moving through the house freely, Mai just pick up boxes that he’s packed. “It is particularly cruel given that Ms. Mai uprooted her entire life from Los Angeles to live in their shared home,” her rep responded. “Only to now face unnecessary obstacles in gathering her belongings.”

Bhad Bhabie Cozies Up To Le Vaughn After Alabama Barker Drama

by

This week, Bhad Bhabie took to Instagram to announce that she was officially single. She accused Alabama Barker of stealing her man Le Vaughn, with whom she welcomed her first child a few months ago. Barker denied these allegations, insisting that she didn’t know about Le Vaughn’s relationship with Bhad Bhabie and even accusing him of throwing a bottle at her. “His behavior was not only reckless but also deeply concerning,” Barker alleged. “It’s troubling to see that despite his actions, [Bhad Bhabie] continues to defend him even after I had told her what he had done.”

Bhad Bhabie later hopped online to explain the whole story, revealing that it all started with an alleged physical altercation between her and Le Vaughn. She claims that after an argument allegedly turned physical, she called up Chief Keef. Upon finding out about this, Le Vaughn allegedly “busted [her] lip” and “accidentally slammed [her] hand in the door.” Bhad Bhabie ultimately decided to stay at Chief Keef’s house for the night and returned home to find Le Vaughn packing up his things.

He then proceeded to stay at a hotel for a couple of weeks, when he allegedly met Barker. Bhad Bhabie claims she didn’t find out about this until she and Le Vaughn had gotten back together, but when she confronted them both about it, neither of them told her the truth. For this reason, she said she decided to end her friendship with Barker and break up with Le Vaughn. Recently, however, she shared a clip of herself and Le Vaughn in a car together listening to one of her upcoming tracks.

For now, it remains unclear whether or not they’re back together. Regardless, social media users are fed up. Barker, on the other hand, praised Bhad Bhabie during a recent chat with fans on Instagram Live and called the situation a “smart” marketing strategy.

Remy Ma Shouts Out Eazy The Block Captain At Show Amid Papoose Cheating Drama

by

Remy Ma and Papoose haven’t said much about the actual cheating allegations against each other, but they are surely taking sides in not so subtle ways. For example, the former recenetly seemed to shout out her alleged lover, battle rapper Eazy The Block Captain, during a recent performance for “LOX & Friends” in New York City. Maybe the East Coast femcee did not mean this in this context at all, but try as she might, fans will still run with this narrative. As for Pap, Remy accused him of cheating on her with boxer Claressa Shields, who now wants to fight Remy for reasons that don’t have much to do with the rapper himself.

“At this point the girl leaked my number,” Claressa Shields said of Remy Ma, Eazy The Block Captain, and the Papoose drama. “So at this point, you can give me a dollar and I’ll put my hand over her. It don’t have nothing to do with whatever else. It’s just that part alone. That part there is where it’s like, I’m a businesswoman. Don’t leak my number. Why would you do that? I mean, drama sells. I’m not in that beef. My smoke with her is posting my number. So people like, ‘Oh, she wants to fight her over a dude, whatever,’ stop it. Stop it. That is so beneath me.”

Remy Ma Seemingly Salutes Eazy The Block Captain Amid Papoose Scandal

We’ll see how the hip-hop world reacts to this presumed Eazy The Block Captain shoutout. We know that some corners are taking this more seriously than others, as Fat Joe recently lamented his inability to solve the issues between his two good friends Remy Ma and Papoose. We can’t imagine what other individuals now find themselves stuck in the middle of this debacle.

Meanwhile, Papoose himself slightly pushed back against Joey Crack’s remarks, even if it was more of a fact-check than a direct opposition. As for Remy Ma, she remains relatively quiet about it all, but we’re sure that the near future’s developments will eventually result in a stronger statement. For now, some fans will take this perceived shoutout as gospel even if nothing really indicates a confession.

Cardi B Promises BIA $1M If She Can Prove She Cheated On Offset

by

Cardi B has certainly dealt with no shortage of drama in recent months. The mother of three is currently going through a divorce from her longtime partner Offset, and this week, they took some of their differences to social media. Of course, this has resulted in fans weighing in on the feud, and spreading false narratives about their split. One of them is that Cardi allegedly cheated on Offset, which she denies.

Earlier this week, she even hopped on X to check one user, who brought up her past beef with BIA. For those who don’t recall, BIA dropped a diss track about Cardi B in June, after Cardi threatened to sue her for spreading rumors that she cheated on the former Migos member. In it, she doubles down on the cheating allegations, goes after Cardi’s appearances, mentions her kids by name, and more. The cover art features a screenshot of Offset alleging that Cardi slept with someone else behind his back.

Cardi B Sets The Record Straight

The user shared this cover art, writing “bia spilled all that girls tea.” Cardi didn’t waste any time before setting the record straight. She even went the extra mile, claiming she’d pay BIA a pretty penny if she was able to find evidence to back up her cheating allegations. “That b#### ain’t spill,” she wrote. “I’ll pay her a million dollars in cash to provide receipts of me talking to any n#### before this situation !!!” This is far from the first time Cardi has lashed out online as of late. The other day, she also told her ex that she hoped he’d die during a heated Twitter Spaces rant.

“Happy as f**k that I gave you attention for one day!” she said at the time. “Now you’re trying to spin the narrative like I want to be with you, knowing that that’s not it. I gave you some time out of spite because another n***a pissed me the f**k off. […] B***h, I will violate right now.”

King Harris Addresses Rumors He’s Not His Child’s Father

by

In November, King Harris welcomed his first child with Atlanta lash tech Big Nana. While the pair appears to be adjusting well to parenthood, not everyone has been so supportive, with some social media users even spreading rumors that King is not the newborn’s father. Recently, however, he hopped online to set the record straight. In an Instagram post shared earlier today, he went off on people pushing this narrative, making it clear that it’s not the case. He encouraged his followers to head over to Snapchat to see a photo of the child, calling him his “twin.”

“HERES KING JR EVERYONE MY TWIN💙,” he captioned his post. “ALL YALL BLOGS DAT POSTED ALL THAT FAKE BULLSH*T DONT SAY OR POST SH*T 😎👑 YALL ARE NOT A CREDIBLE SOURCE 😂😂 I SHOWED YALL HOW UNINTELLIGENT YALL IS 😂😂😂😂 I NEVER CHANGED YALL JUSR LET THE INTERNET CHANGE YALL VIEW ON ME BUT ITS OK CUZ YALL JUST EASILY TO BE MANIPULATED ON SOCIAL MEDIA IM HIM IN REAL LIFE NO LIE OR RUMORS ON DA INTERNET CAN TAKE THAT AWAY 👑🫡.”

King Harris Sets The Record Straight

Of course, fans are flooding him with supportive messages amid this major life transition, and noting how much the child looks like him. He’s not the first member of the Harris family to fire back amid hurtful rumors recently, however. Earlier this month, King’s mother Tiny also took to Instagram with a message for haters, seemingly shutting down theories that King is not his child’s father.

She shared a series of sweet holiday photos featuring some of her kids, telling followers not to believe everything they read in her caption. “Don’t believe all the lies u read ppl just use them for clickbait!!” she wrote in part. “How in the hell would this person know anything about what we did or did not do!! Sometimes ppl gotta learn the hard way tho & I don’t [mind] teaching the lesson😏.”
