Vlogger Wants Nicki Minaj Lawsuit Thrown Out Due To Rapper’s Own Misconduct

nicki

Last year, rapper Nicki Minaj sued gossip vlogger Marley Greene aka Nosey Heaux for defamation of character when she accused Nicki of using cocaine. The controversial vlogger also made a series of  negative comments about the rapper’s son. Well now Nosey Heaux wants the case tossed out.

Radar Online reports:

The blogger who accused Nicki Minaj of abusing drugs has demanded the rapper’s lawsuit be thrown out of court, RadarOnline.com has learned.

According to court documents obtained by RadarOnline.com, Marley Greene aka “Nosey Heaux” has denied all allegations of wrongdoing in the case accusing her of defamation.

Last year, Minaj sued Green for allegedly spreading lies about her using drugs and making “vile” comments about her son. The rapper took issue with the woman “falsely and maliciously” claiming Minaj is a “cokehead” who is “shoving all this c—– up her nose.”

Her lawsuit read, “In just the day following Green’s September 12, 2022 publication of her lie that [Minaj] is a “cokehead” on her Twitter page, almost 2,000 people had “liked” it. More importantly, more than 260 people had retweeted it, which led to a firestorm of social media attention which was undoubtedly caused by multiple levels of subsequent retweets. While social media is an extraordinarily effective vehicle for spreading lies, it does not confer a license to do so.”

Minaj demanded unspecified compensatory damages plus punitive damages.

In her newly filed response, obtained by RadarOnline.com, the blogger argued that, “The complained-of-acts of these answering Defendants were justified and privileged under the circumstances, including but not limited to truth, fair comment and opinion.”

Further, Greene said any damages “suffered by [Minaj] was a direct and proximate result of her own misconduct and actions.”

In addition, she said she didn’t publish any “defamatory statements” concerning Minaj. Greene has asked for the entire lawsuit to be dismissed and Minaj not to be awarded a dime in the case.

Julia Fox Slams Anna Wintour And Karl Lagerfeld And Promises To Start Her Own Gala

Screen Shot 2023 05 09 at 6.41.06 AM

Actress Julia Fox recently shared that although she didn’t get an invite to the coveted Met Gala event, she thinks editor Anna Wintour should pass the baton. In an interview with Daily Mail, Kanye West’s ex said that the 73-year-old Wintour should step aside while slamming her decision to honor late designer Karl Lagerfeld at this year’s event. “To be honest with you, the Met Gala has never spoken to me – I mean look at who is running it,” said Fox, who admitted that she never received an invite to the annual celebrity event.

Fox admitted that even if she received an invite to the Gala, she wouldn’t have gone, since it’s really about politics. “If it was about fashion I’d be there but it’s not,” she went on. “It’s about politics, privilege, who your parents are, and how much money you make.” Taking direct aim at Wintour she said, “Anna Wintour, just won’t quit – how long is she going to keep going?” adding that Wintour’s fashion publication has become more about “commerce than art.” “There is a dis-connect,” Fox said, “American Vogue is not my favorite: it needs to be more fun and fresh and new energy.”

“The Met Gala has a gatekeeper vibe,” she opined. “I don’t rank people in my head based on who their parents are or how much money they have: the Met is not exclusive, it is exclusionary. I don’t want to sound like I’m butt hurt because I love the Met Museum but I want to do more for more designers and people that don’t have the same privilege so they can be seen and heard.”

Fox also slammed this year’s theme Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty. She expressed her outrage saying that the late German designer “upheld supremacy and imperialism ideals.” Lagerfeld, who helmed Chanel and Fendi for almost 50 years, was accused of making misogynistic, Islamophobic, and racist comments during his long tenure. He is also known to have mock the #MeToo movement saying he was “fed up” with accusations made about high-profile movie producers and entertainers. Lagerfeld was also criticized for commenting supermodel Heidi Klum was “simply too heavy, with too big a bust,” and called out singer Adele as “a little too fat.”
Fox revealed that she is considering setting up a rival event that will spotlight less-celebrated stars of the fashion industry. The event will also help raise funds for needy artists. “I want to support fashion designers,” she explained. “Me and my friends are hoping to start our own gala and help [raise] funds [for] disadvantaged people and single mothers. I just want to tell people don’t aspire to be like these people who went to the Met, aspire to be yourself. There’s a little boy or girl out there [who] will look at me and not be ashamed – fashion and art is about vision.”

Nicki Minaj Reacts to Rep. George Santos’ Anti-Vaccine Mandate Bill Named ‘The Minaj Act’

minaj

Rep. George Santos shared he’s trying to “bring more engagement into public policy” with a new bill named after Queens rapper Nicki Minaj. In an effort to merge the younger crowd and politics, he used Nicki’s anti-mandate stace to lure Barbz into learning about the medical freedom bill.

Santos spoke with CBS2 about legislation in this week’s episode of “The Point.”

“So what’s the MINAJ bill? The MINAJ Act?” she asked.

“So the MINAJ Act is a medical freedom bill. It was a creative way– here’s how politics works. Politics is boring,” Santos said.

“Who’s Minaj? Is it–?” Kramer asked.

“Nicki Minaj,” Santos said.

“That’s who I thought,” Kramer said.

The Medical Information Nuanced Accountability Judgement (MINAJ) Act of 2023 aims “to prohibit the Federal Government from imposing any mandate requiring an individual to receive a vaccine that has not been authorized for marketing for at least 10 years, and for other purposes.”

“So why are you naming a bill after [Nicki Minaj]?” Kramer asked.

“Well, she was very pro-choice on the vaccine situation and didn’t like the mandates of the COVID-19 vaccine,” Santos said, “and the reason I named the bill with some nuance there was simply to make sure that we can get pop culture meets politics and we can harness the energy of a younger generation which necessarily doesn’t enjoy politics or layman people who don’t pay attention to politics and say, oh, politics doesn’t matter, but then you put some pop culture reference in there and you’re opening the doors to politics to a whole new window of people.”

Santos added, “I’m trying to bring more engagement into public policy. Isn’t that a good thing, though? You make it entertaining, Marcia, so people can bear to watch C-SPAN because it is boring … I cannot bear to watch C-SPAN, I’ll answer that question.”

Listen to Nicki’s response to the bill below.

World Champion Olympic Medalist Tori Bowie Passes Away At 32-Years-Old

tori

As an Olympic medalist and world champion, Tori Bowie was a force to be reckoned with on the track. Yesterday, her sudden death shocked the athletic community and left her fans and loved ones confused.

Deputies were called for a well-being check at a home in the 5400 block of Bowman Drive after Frentorish “Tori” Bowie had not been seen or heard from in several days. When deputies went inside, they found Bowie, 32, dead in the home.

There were no signs of foul play, the Sheriff’s Office said. The Medical Examiner’s Office will determine the cause and manner of death.

“USATF is deeply saddened by the passing of Tori Bowie, a three-time Olympic medalist and two-time world champion,” USA Track and Field CEO Max Siegel said in a statement. “A talented athlete, her impact on the sport is immeasurable, and she will be greatly missed.”

The 32-year-old Mississippi native had retired from professional running in 2019, but remained active in the sport as a coach and mentor to young athletes. Pharrell even pegged her for a collaboration with SolarHu labeling her an inspiration.

Pharrell said, “Tori is an inspiration to me and to everyone she meets. After facing a few personal setbacks years ago, she persevered and worked her way to winning three Olympic medals and the 2017 100 meter world championship — making her the fastest woman in the world. Her inner strength is the embodiment of everything SolarHu is about.

Bowie, who retired from international competition in 2019, was one of the brightest stars in track and field. In 2017 she won gold in the 100m at the World Championships in London, which remains the most-recent gold medal a woman from the United States has won.

Bowie was taken in by her grandmother as an infant after she was left at a foster home. She considered herself a basketball player and only reluctantly showed up for track, but Bowie was a fast learner, becoming a state champion in the 100, 200 and long jump before going to college.

Her first major international medal was a 100-meter bronze at worlds in 2015. After winning, she said, “my entire life my grandmother told me I could do whatever I set my mind to.”

Da Brat’s Wife Claps Back At Critics For Their Decision To Choose White Sperm Donor

brat 1

Da Brat and Judy Harris-Dupart made headlines when they revealed their soon-to-be-born child would be bi-racial after they chose a white sperm donor. Social media users questioning the couple’s decision. Judy took to Baller Alert’s comments section on Instagram to defend her and Da Brat’s decision and to use the moment as a teaching lesson.
The soon-to-be mom wrote:

“TO BE CLEAR – for all those that are not aware of the MANY things we weren’t aware of, here it is: black men make up less than 5% of the donation pool,” she began. “Furthermore with genetic testing ( that is SPECIFICALLY for looking into the diseases that humans carry ) and inputting my stats in ALL of the cryo banks -it went from THOUSANDS to about 300 and of that only 1 was black – and he also unfortunately wasn’t a perfect match.”

She added: “So we actually waited a few weeks to see if the pool increased – but unfortunately with the time frame we had to choose within 6-8 weeks and there was no more new black donors that fit within the perfect fit with my genetic testing. Hopefully this HEADLINE that people are running with will EDUCATE more people that there’s a HUGE gap in the sperm pool. Everyone have a great rest of your day. [pink heart emojis] [Eyes emoji].”
