Lil Meech Arrested After “BMF” Actor Brought Glock-19 Through TSA

by

Demetrius Flenory Jr. – known for his leading role in 50 Cent’s crime series BMF – was arrested at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport today. The reason? His attempt to bring a firearm through security.

Many have made the mistake of leaving a filled-up water bottle in their carry-on. However, a Glock-19 is a slightly more serious offense.

The actor, known also by “Lil Meech,” had reportedly stowed the pistol in his carry-on luggage. When airport security located the weapon, deputies from Broward County Sheriff’s Office were notified and dispatched immediately. Police took the 22-year-old soon thereafter.

Upon further investigation, the Glock itself was empty with a clear chamber. Still, though, authorities did find a 15-round magazine elsewhere in the actor’s luggage.

While transporting firearms from one airport to another is certainly doable, the BMF star missed a couple of key steps.

Firstly, all firearms must be stored in checked luggage only. This was Flenory’s first mistake, as there are no exceptions that allow passengers to bring weapons in their carry-on.

On top of this, the traveler did not have a carry permit with him at the time of the flight. Considering the nature of the gun’s location, and Flenory’s decision to not announce the contents of the bag to TSA, the firearm would be considered concealed. In all 50 states, laws are in place prohibiting the public possession of a concealed firearm if the individual doesn’t have the proper state permit.

Meech’s lack of proper paperwork is likely what landed him felony charges after his arrest. Upcoming court dates for the accused have remained undisclosed. At this time, the actor’s camp has yet to issue a formal statement, though his friends have been clowning him.

Do you think Felnory is in any real trouble with the law? Or will the TV star get a slap on the wrist before flying out to his next set? Let us know in the comments and check back with HNHH for updates on this developing story.

6ix9ine Receives Luxury Apartment Ban After Security Gets Careless With Assault Weapons

by

For 6ix9ine, life never seems to be easy. The New Yorker is no stranger to trouble. From feuding with other rappers to going ghost on his own legal team without paying them, he always seems to be in the middle of some drama. Now, he’s in hot water once again – this time for allowing his guards to get careless with their assault weapons during his stay at a Miami condo.

As TMZ reports, the “GOOBA” artist is receiving a ban from a boujee apartment complex down south. While in Florida, he typically crashes with Nelk Boys member SteveWillDoIt at his SLS Lux Property residence. After seeing how his entourage acts, however, the building’s association promptly shut that down.

A letter obtained by the outlet states that 6ix9ine came for a visit at the end of October. With him was a collection of bodyguards, who were openly carrying assault weapons with them.

Furthermore, one of the security staffers is said to have “casually left his assault weapon on his bag.” Afterward, he “walked away from it briefly to talk with others.” Understandably so, this is cause for major concern.

The documents additionally note that the condo board is “aware of the bounty placed on 6ix9ine’s life in exchange for information regarding others and [his own] provocative antics” following his prison stint.

At the end of the day, the association feels as though having the 26-year-old in the vicinity creates a “dangerous situation for its residents, guests, employees, and staff members.”

TMZ has clarified that it’s unclear if unsafe things were occurring during 6ix9ine’s stays. However, they did obtain a video of someone with a gun waiting for the controversial celebrity outside.

In happier news, Tekashi caused a serious stir online earlier this month. Surprisingly, photos of him proposing in Dubai appeared online. Read more about that here, and check back later for more hip-hop news updates.

Diddy’s New Baby News Follows Alleged Fling With Influencer Shawntya Joseph

by

Diddy has been a busy man as of late. The multihyphenate often spoils City Girl Yung Miami. However, recent reports reveal that he’s got enough love in him for more than just one woman.

Over the weekend, the internet was shaken by a tweet from Sean Combs, revealing that there’s a new “baby girl” in his family. Initially, it was unclear if the 53-year-old was a father for the seventh time, or if one of his own children had made him a grandpa.

Now though, we know that the New York native’s tweet was celebrating the arrival of his own child. As Page Six notes, Love Sean Combs was born back in October. 28-year-old cyber security specialist Dana Tran is the mother, according to a birth certificate.

Currently, Diddy hasn’t spoken on the situation any further than his initial tweet. Internet sleuths are noticing that his latest baby mama’s social media accounts no longer exist. With an infant to take care of, it’s not surprising that Tran is trying to avoid invasive attention.

The new parents may be keeping quiet, but Yung Miami has certainly been speaking her mind. On Monday (December 12), she and DJ Akademiks went at it on social media. At the time, she adamantly insisted that she’s not anyone’s “side bitch.”

In the past, the “Twerkulator” rapper and Diddy have made it known that their relationship is an open one. Still, though, the internet tends to clown Caresha for how hard she rides for a man. Especially one that’s not fully committing to her.

As Daily Mail reports, the Florida native has more than just Tran to worry about. Less than 24 hours before making the big announcement about little Love, Combs was seen strolling around NYC with an influencer named Shawntya Joseph.

The two were seen on Friday (December 9), wearing all-black outfits as they explored the city together. At this time, it remains unclear what the nature of their relationship is.

Dua Lipa & Jack Harlow Dating After Rapper Name-Dropped Her On Last Album

by

Most people typically try to secure their cuffing season arrangements long before December. However, this year we have several late entries sparking romance rumours ahead of the holidays. Most recently, Dua Lipa and Jack Harlow have been causing a stir by spending some time together.

According to a Page Six report, the two have been dating after meeting at the Variety Hitmaker’s Brunch. The event took place last month in Los Angeles. Sources say that the Future Nostalgia starlet has become “quite smitten” with her new beau. They’ve been in “constant communication” since their first run-in, which cameras were quick to photograph.

Harlow, of course, hasn’t kept quiet about his strong feelings of attraction for the English artist. Earlier this year, he even released, “Dua Lipa.“ The single appears on his sophomore effort, Come Home The Kids Miss You.

“Dua Lipa, I’m tryna do more with her than do a feature / I checked the web, they out here chewin’ me up, f*ck it,” he raps within the first few bars of the popular song.

Many would love to have the Kentucky native pen a track about them. Still, Harlow made sure to get his new girl’s blessing before unleashing his work on the world. “I didn’t want her to be blindsided by that or feel creeped out or anything,” he previously said when telling the story of her reaction in May.

“I suppose it’s OK,” is what Lipa initially told him over FaceTime. However, it seems the tribute has grown on her. At least enough for the performer to want to get to know the “First Class” hitmaker on a more intimate level.

A source told Page Six of Harlow, “he was very interested in [Dua], and was going to strongly pursue [the romance].” Additionally, insiders have spilled that he flew to New York City this past weekend to see her following an appearance at the Z100 Jingle Ball.

The next day, sleuths saw them arriving separately at a restaurant for a lunch date. Apparently, they were attempting to move inconspicuously as they came in through a private entrance and left at different times.

“He is going to do his best, as he has always been a fan of her,” someone close to Harlow has confirmed to the outlet.

Prior to these new romance rumours, Dua Lipa was last linked to Trevor Noah. Read all about that gossip here, and check back with HNHH later for more pop culture news updates.

Ben Simmons Reacts To Rumors He Slept With Megan Thee Stallion & Her Ex-BFF Kelsey

by

This trial has Hip Hop at attention, and more is being revealed about Tory Lanez, Megan Thee Stallion…and Ben Simmons. In July 2020, Megan was injured during an altercation in Hollywood Hills. She later came forward to allege that Lanez, her former friend, shot her in the foot. He denied the allegations, and during the opening statements of his trial, Lanez’s defense team contested that Kelsey Nicole Harris is the person responsible.

According to several reports that emerged today (December 12), the defense argues that Harris and Megan got into a verbal argument while inside an SUV with Lanez. He was said to have revealed he had a sexual relationship with Megan, causing a fight between the ladies. Lanez reportedly dated Harris some time prior.

Additionally, the defense team claims during this spat, Harris wasn’t surprised. She allegedly said Megan did this in the past—having sex with men she dated, including DaBaby and Ben Simmons.

After the information went viral, The Shade Room returned with a report of its own. They claim they spoke with a “source” who accused Lanez and his defense team of lying because Harris doesn’t know Simmon “at all.”

The public has weighed in heavily on the new revelations from both the prosecution and the defense during opening statements. Yet, people were tuned as they waited for Simmons’ reaction.

The NBA baller didn’t outright release a statement about allegedly having sex with the ex-best friends. However, he uploaded a clip of Rick Ross to his Instagram Story where the Florida icon yelled, “Accusations! False accusations!”

Meanwhile, the prosecution claims that not only did Lanez shoot Megan, but he punched Harris. They also state they have audio of a jail call from Lanez to Harris where he apologized.

Megan is reportedly set to testify this week. Harris will take the stand, as well, as a witness for the prosecution.

DaBaby Facing Lawsuit For Allegedly Stealing “Rockstar” Beat From Producer

by

DaBaby’s downfall continues. The rapper – who was among the most popular in the world in 2020 – has been in the news for controversial reasons since last year.

According to a report from TMZ, the “BOP” rapper is now being sued for stealing the beat to one of his most popular songs, “ROCKSTAR” featuring Roddy Ricch.

The producer filing the lawsuit, JuJu Beatz claims that he sent a “musical composition” to DaBaby’s team a few years back. Part of it was later sampled by the 30-year-old illegally and without his permission.

Additionally, the creative claims the rapper and his camp accessed the digital file over 40 times from late 2019 to early 2020.

Beatz is suing for damages, as the rapper is seemingly refusing to cooperate outside of court.

“ROCKSTAR” currently has over one billion streams on Spotify since its release. The up-and-coming hitmaker says he hasn’t earned any money for his allegedly stolen beat.

As we mentioned earlier, controversy has been running rampant in the “Babysitter” artist’s life for some time now. In the summer of 2021, the Cleveland native received backlash for some out-of-pocket comments he made while on stage at Rolling Loud.

In a hate-filled rant seemingly towards the LGBTQ+ community, he singled out AIDS victims. “If you didn’t show up today with HIV, AIDS, or any of them deadly sexually transmitted diseases, that’ll make you die in two to three weeks, then put your cellphone lighter up,” he said to the crowd.

Gay men were the target of his next remark. “Fellas, if you ain’t sucking d*ck in the parking lot, put your cellphone lighter up,” DaBaby continued.

Consequently, a number of festivals including Lollapalooza went forward with removing the KIRK rapper from their lineups.

Meeting with several organizations and a since-deleted public apology led to an LGBTQ+ foundation, Relationship Unleased, forgiving the rapper.

CEO Gwendolyn D. Clemons said they felt as though the GRAMMY-nominated rapper had learned why his comments were harmful.

After escaping that scandal (not without consequences, however), he’s now caught up in the “ROCKSTAR” lawsuit.

As the latest saga in DaBaby’s troubled career begins to unfold, do you think he’ll ever be as popular as he once was? Sound off in the comments below.

Lori Harvey & Damson Idris Romance Rumours Run Rampant Online

by

The dating life of Lori Harvey is no stranger to the front pages of various blogs. Following her split from her long-term beau Michael B. Jordan earlier this year, the model has been enjoying the single-girl lifestyle. However, recent reports have linked her to another Hollywood heartthrob, and the gossip has the internet boldly speaking their minds.

According to Media Take Out, the 25-year-old has been surprisingly romantically tied to Snowfall actor Damson Idris as of late. Other past suitors said to have been spending time with her include Jack Harlow as well as Creed 3 actor Jonathan Majors.

While this is all just gossip and speculation (for now), the outlet didn’t stop there. In another spilling of juicy tea, they revealed that Harvey reportedly makes the men she dates sign an “air-tight” NDA with some serious financial consequences if broken.

“Lori makes [all the men] sign an NDA to make sure that whatever they talk about is personal and confidential,” a friend of the Memphis beauty’s unquestionably dished. The document specifically prohibits signees from sharing any photos or messages exchanged between them.

Additionally, it bans “saving any screen captures of their discussions or communications, including any video conferences.” Meanwhile, the cost of breaking the rules? Obviously a small penalty of a million dollars.

The same friend later says that the Los Angeles law firm previously responsible for Drake’s infamous NDAs wrote Harvey’s for her.

As expected, the gossip has Twitter users going accordingly feral. “If Lori Harvey is dating Damson I’m going to scream and throw up. Get away from him,” one particularly dramatic user wrote. Another added, “My goodness, she really don’t miss.”

“I could care less about Lori having NDAs. Is she really messing with Damson???? I need answers quickly,” someone else conversely joked.

Check out more equally entertaining reactions to the rumoured new romance below. Afterward, let us know what your thoughts are in the comments.

Tory Lanez & Megan Thee Stallion Trial Officially Underway

by

It’s been over two years since Tory Lanez allegedly shot Megan Thee Stallion in the foot. The trial is finally getting underway in Los Angeles.

Opening remarks serve as the first order of business and will begin today (December 12). The Canadian faces three felony counts.

If convicted of all charges, including assault and having a concealed weapon in a vehicle, he could spend upwards of 22 years in prison.

However, the Brampton-born rapper continues to maintain his innocence. He has pleaded not guilty to the felonies against him. It currently remains unclear if he will testify. His alleged victim, though, is due to take the stand later this week, according to a spokesman for the LA County DA’s office.

In August 2020, the “Savage” rapper officially came forward during an Instagram Live to accuse the 30-year-old of shooting her in the foot. The incident allegedly took place in July outside of a party hosted by Kylie Jenner in the Hollywood Hills.

The “Say It” singer broke his own silence the following month. He subsequently released DAYSTAR, a 17-track album in which he addresses his side of the story on multiple songs.

Namely, on “Money Over Fallouts,” the lyricist questions how Thee Stallion could’ve gotten shot in the foot without getting hit in any bones or tendons. Lanez’s first charge stemming from the incident came in October 2020.

On the other hand, the Traumazine rapper continues to defend her allegations.

She has never been afraid to clap back at people online who question her reality and trauma. The Texas native criticizes the difference in attitude towards violence against Black women compared to the dismissal of her truth.

In her April interview with CBS Mornings host Gayle King, the 27-year-old detailed her side of the story on television for the first time.

Stemming from a separate alleged assault with fellow artist August Alsina, the world was witness to Lanez subsequently being placed on house arrest in October. He has since been released.

Just last week, Lanez’s lawyer revealed that Kylie Jenner and Cory Gamble are among the possible witnesses of the alleged assault. Both were present at the 2020 party that the incident followed.

“I want him to go to jail,” Meg said of Tory when speaking to Rolling Stone earlier this year. The trial is expected to last at least two weeks.

Make sure to stay tuned to HNHH for the latest updates in the trial. What do you think the outcome will be? Comment down below.

YNW Melly Is “In Fear Of [His] Life” According To Lengthy IG Posts

by

Even from behind bars, YNW Melly has been getting desperate messages out to his fans via Instagram. Earlier this month, he publicly pleaded with figures like Joe Biden, Kim Kardashian, and Meek Mill to help him. Now, the Broward County-born star is back with more allegations about the unfortunate treatment he’s enduring while awaiting trial.

“As of this moment today I am officially in fear of my life,” Melly wrote on Monday (December 12) afternoon. “A new Captain named Hubert and XO Jenkins have taken over the jail for two weeks now. They’ve handed out even harsher punishments for me [than] the previous ones in place.”

According to his account, the 23-year-old moved into a housing unit that holds 24 inmates at once. He’s been staying there alone, with no phone privilege, no television, and no access to a newspaper. “They are watching my every move on camera. Making sure I don’t use the phone to tell the world how I am being mistreated, discriminated, threatened physically, harassed,” he alleges.

Additionally, Melly says that on the one hour a day he is let out of his cell, all other inmates in adjoining dorms go to their respective rooms. “I am being subjected to cruel and unusual treatment at the hands of deputies and high-ranking staff of the Broward Sheriff’s Office,” he insists.

“I have been threatened by Deputies, Lieutenants and Sergeants. They say ‘they will hide me from the world’ and threaten to ‘beat my ass every day.’ If I tell my lawyers they will lie and say I hit them first,” the Florida native adds. Specifically, he credits the threats to Sergeant Anthony Kidd and Lieutenant Jean Baptiste.

The staff have apparently succeeded in their goal of hiding him. Now, Melly believes that their next step is “beating [him] half to death.” This is something he says happens “to other inmates almost daily at the main jail” in Broward County.

Shortly after, another message appeared on the “Murder On My Mind” artist’s profile. “I can’t call my family or lawyers to notify them I have been beaten or harassed,” he vents to his fans in this one. “They say my phone privileges are taken permanently because [of] all of the infractions over the last seven months. THAT IS A LIE!”

“They took my phone privileges indefinitely off of my 1st violation for using another inmate’s pin to talk on the phone when I am not allowed to use the phone,” he explains. Additionally, Melly notes that other inmates in the same circumstance would have gotten their privileges back after 30 days, “per the handbook.”

The recording artist is feeling frustration, particularly after seeing others planning escapes and robberies with jail phones and still having their privileges.

“I am housed and surrounded in the care of power-struck deputies and captains of high authority. They’ve even have told me to my face that ‘they don’t like me’ and ‘I pissed them off,’” Melly’s rant goes on. “I am not safe in the hands of these people,” he insists.

He concluded, “I am in fear of my life. My family is in fear of my life. I can not do another day here. Someone, please help me get moved to another county jail until my trial. PLEASE!”

In other recent news, YNW Melly’s mother was recently questioned over alleged witness tampering in her son’s case. Read more about that here, and check back with HNHH later for more news updates.

Diddy’s New Baby Mama’s Identity Revealed: Report

by

Diddy and Yung Miami have made it clear that they’re not in an exclusive relationship in the past. However, that didn’t stop the world from reacting in shock when Sean Combs revealed that he fathered a child with another woman recently.

Over the weekend, the “Gotta Move On” hitmaker took to Twitter to share an elusive announcement. “I’m so blessed to welcome my baby girl, Love Sean Combs to the world,” he wrote on Saturday. At the time, it remained unclear if the New Yorker was the child’s dad or grandpa, and who the mother is.

Unsurprisingly, internet sleuths have solved the mystery. Thanks to a birth certificate obtained by TMZ, we now know that 28-year-old Dana Tran is the infant’s mom.

The young woman works in the cyber security industry. From what’s been uncovered about her so far, she appears to be a Southern California native. According to the outlet she often goes by Dana Tee on social media. However, it seems as though her Instagram account was recently taken down.

It’s currently unknown how she and Diddy first met, or what the extent of that relationship is. The Bad Boy founder clearly isn’t hiding the new addition to his family, though.

In the latter half of his aforementioned tweet, he added, “Mama Combs, Quincy, Justin, Christian, Chance, D’Lila, Jessie and myself all love you so much! God is the Greatest!”

Already a father of six, Puff is no stranger to being a parent. Following the death of his ex, Kim Porter, though, the recording artist has been open about how raising teenage girls alone hasn’t been easy on him.

“I was like a part-time father,” he told Yung Miami during their Caresha Please interview earlier this year. “Losing Kim, it was like now I’m a full-time father and my life is really going crazy right now.”

He went on, “Going from just being on the road and stuff to like actually having to raise three girls. I’ve never been in that situation before, I guess God gave me some karma, hit me three times! I’ve got three girls turning 16.”

Check back in with HNHH later for any updates on Diddy’s new baby mama, Dana Tran.
