Princess Love stopped by Trick Daddy’s “I Got My Pots” Facebook cooking show to discuss various topics including Ray J and Women’s History Month. The two cooked ox tails and brown beans and rice while Princess schooled Trick on why women need a history month
“How the hell y’all get a women’s history month?” Trick asked.
“You know how you got here, right?” Princess said. “Women bring life into this world. We have a portal in between our legs that life comes through.”
Princess also spoke on the second divorce filed by Ray J. “Ray filed for divorce for the second time being petty,” she said. She also pointed out that she was a submissive wife who decorated the house for her man every holiday.
Trick tried to rally for Ray J saying he still speaks highly of Princess. But she revealed that Ray J is a very controlling Capricorn.
“Ray and I are great friends. We are great business partners,” she stated.
Princess and Ray J wed in August of 2016. They welcomed their first child, Melody Love Norwood, in May of 2018. They also welcomed a son together in December 2019. Ray J filed for divorce in September 2020.
Letoya Luckett opened up about how being a member of Destiny’s Child affected her confidence.
During a visit to the “Good Moms, Bad Choices” podcast, the original member said being in the group took a toll on her confidence. Before entering the group at age 11, she was singing lead in church and in her previous singing group. Once she became a member of Destiny’s Child, she had to compromise and while in midst of that she lost her confidence.
“With a lot of partnerships, we lose ourselves to become one or we feel it’s going to make us cohesive or make the situation work out better,” Luckett said.
While in the group, she said she had to be flexible and “play her role” not knowing how that would change how she felt about herself.
“I didn’t feel like I couldn’t sing lead when I came out of [Destiny’s Child] because for so long I felt like I had sacrificed myself for the greater good,” the 41-year-old added.
Looking back, she reflected about what she would tell her younger self.
“What I would’ve told my younger self is to not lose myself even being a team player in that situation,” she said. “That I still matter. I still have a voice.”
“Still remain confident in who God created you to be and the gift that He gave you,” she continued. “You don’t have to shrink yourself to be good at your role….I learned so much from that situation.”
The Preacher’s Kid star also spoke about her relationship with her former group members, saying that her departure didn’t ruin their lifelong friendship.
“It’s beautiful that after so many years the love is still there. Through everything we’ve been through people can assume that we hate each other and it didn’t work out and blah blah blah but we were friends first.”
Let’s go back to 20 years ago when Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck co-starred in “Gigli” and encountered what I presume you would call love at first sight, since they are back at it again. They first started dating in 2002 and got engaged in November of the same year.
Friendly reminder that JLo was coming out of divorce back in 2002. She was previously married to her second husband, Cris Judd. So when Jen and Ben started their first engagement the media could not ignore the fact that she had another rock on her finger by November. Affleck initially proposed to Lopez with a beautiful 6-carat pink diamond ring.
Even though Jennifer and Ben called off their engagement in 2004, it is clear to us all that this was not the end of their love. It was not too far back that Jennifer had a lovely 16-cart emerald-cut diamond ring. It was worth about $1.8 million – talk about big rings. I am sure Drake and Future are impressed with JLo’s lovely compilation of engagement rings. About a year ago Jennifer and Alex Rodriguez called off their 2-year engagement. And if there is one thing we know about JLo she loves love, so here we are a year later with another big announcement.
Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are engaged (again)! This time around Jennifer shared the big news with a sweet video on social media directing you to visit her OnTheJLo.com. If you were signed up for her newsletter you received a big surprise right away!
This time around Ben Affleck came to show out. He is clearly a fan of colored diamonds, since this time around he presented Jennifer with a green diamond engagement ring. We do not have all the details yet, but if it is truly a green diamond he spent at least $5 million dollars on that beauty.
All I can say at this point is best wishes to Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck! Everything that is meant to be will find its way, right?
Former The Source Magazine owner Benzino allegedly ruined his daughter Coi Leray‘s day by text threatening her and her mother issuing threats. Coi’s debut album ‘Trendsetter’ was released and Benzino was upset with his daughter after she said Benzino went broke after he lost The Source in an interview with The Breakfast Club.Benzino was upset with his daughter’s comments about the ‘dinosaur’ generation and how she missed his money making era because she was older and aware once his funds were low. She heckled Charlamagne about his love for Pusha T and Benzino tweeted the legends deserve more respect from the younger generations.
Check out his tweets below.
To whom this may concern…LEGENDS don’t play the back….they set the standards. Thank you my brothers @cthagod & @djenvy for sticking up for me and not letting a false narrative of who I am and what I’ve accomplished happen. I put in too much work in the culture. pic.twitter.com/vMgBNw9dfJ
The problem with this social generation is they have no respect or regard for who came before then and how they laid the blueprint for them to be successful. I always revered those who came before me and I am grateful to the legends of Hip Hop.
…and I’m tired this “old talk” Hip hop is over 40 years young and the ones who appeal to older and younger will be the most successful. Anyone who thinks that because you’re in you’re 40’s and 50’s you should just go sit in a rocking chair and still don’t live out and…
..pursue their dreams and aspirations and idiots. All you young people who are in their 20s and successful at rapping, chances are you still will be rapping in your 50s PERIOD. When the younger generation starts listening more and respect the older before them..
…is when LIFE will be better and our entire CULTURE will be better….and let’s make one thing very clear, COMMENTERS AND LIKES ARE PROGRAMS AND SMOKING MIRRORS. The only thing that matters to me is what I can see and feel and BENZINO IS LOVED ALL OVER THE WORLD!
Ahead of Black Maternal Health Week, Serena Williams details the series of complications and dismissals that almost ended her life.“I know my body” Serena begins in the essay, after admitting that her body belonged to tennis for as long as she can remember experiencing every injury imaginable including a busted knee, an Achilles heel, and back spasms. But when she found out she was pregnant she knew that not only her body would change but also her mindset. “Since I’ve had my baby, the stakes of the game have shifted for me. I have 23 Grand Slams to my name, more than any other active player. But winning is now a desire and no longer a need. “I have a beautiful daughter at home; I still want the titles, the success, and the esteem, but it’s not my reason for waking up in the morning.” A near-perfect pregnancy turned into long labor which lead to a c-section and ultimately a complicated recovery.
“I began to cough. The nurses warned me that coughing might burst my stitches, but I couldn’t help it. The coughs became racking, full-body ordeals. Every time I coughed, sharp pains shot through my wound.” I couldn’t breathe. I was coughing because I just couldn’t get enough air. I grabbed a towel, rolled it up, and put it over my incision. Sure enough, I was hacking so hard that my stitches burst. I went into my first surgery after the C-section to get restitched. I was coughing because I had an embolism, a clot in one of my arteries. The doctors would also discover a hematoma, a collection of blood outside the blood vessels, in my abdomen, then even more clots that had to be kept from traveling to my lungs. That’s what the medical report says, anyway. To me, it was just a fog of surgeries, one after another.”
Williams “fought hard” to be heard, and a doctor would soon confirm her fears were legitimate, as she had a blood clot in her lungs that needed to be quickly dissolved before it reached her heart.
“I told her, I need to have a CAT scan of my lungs bilaterally, and then I need to be on my heparin drip.” She said, “I think all this medicine is making you talk crazy.” I said, “No, I’m telling you what I need: I need the scan immediately. And I need it to be done with dye.” I guess I said the name of the dye wrong, and she told me I just needed to rest. But I persisted: “I’m telling you, this is what I need.” Finally, the nurse called my doctor, and she listened to me and insisted we check. I fought hard, and I ended up getting the CAT scan. I’m so grateful to her. Lo and behold, I had a blood clot in my lungs, and they needed to insert a filter into my veins to break up the clot before it reached my heart. In the U.S., Black women are nearly three times more likely to die during or after childbirth than their white counterparts. Many of these deaths are considered by experts to be preventable. Being heard and appropriately treated was the difference between life or death for me; I know those statistics would be different if the medical establishment listened to every Black woman’s experience.”
MC Akilah Nehanda has taken social media by storm with her controversial unapologetic freestyles. From vaccinations to R.Kelly and now the Will Smith episode she voices her ‘unpopular opinion’ on trending topics. Garnering over 1 million views on TikTok, empress Akilah thanked viewers on her Instagram page.
1 million For the second time. #APDTA Listen! I just bring different perspectives! Will Smith can apologize. Jada can even say it was unnecessary and she doesn’t need protection! That doesn’t change my thoughts on the matter whatsoeverrrr. I SAID WHAT I SAID! I wish Breonna Taylors Killers got as much disciplinary actions for murder as Will is getting for a SLAP. All of them need to be in rehabilitation centers like they made Will go to This country is sick. I hope y’all are watching what’s happening.
In a past interview with Vice magazine, the Houston beauty explained how and why she ventured into music.
I just started makin’ music, with the purpose of inspiration, and then, like you said, I just start realizing, “You know what? This can be bigger than what I’m makin’ it. I can make this bigger.” And I think — I try to think big, so I’m always like… the influence of Michael Jackson, that’s what we need, you know? [laughs] You know how big he was? This message deserves that type of impact on the world.
Ketanji Brown Jackson was confirmed as the 116th Supreme Court justice of the United States making her the first Back woman elevated to the Supreme Court. Jackson will become the sixth woman justice ever and for the first time, the four women justices will be serving together, including Amy Coney Barrett, Elena Kagan, and Sonia Santamayor. Judge Jackson, 51 years old, fulfilled a pledge made by President Biden at a pivotal moment in his 2020 Democratic presidential race. Judge Jackson’s nomination, overcomes intense Republican opposition, the Senate voted 53 to 47 to confirm, with three republicans-Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, and Mitt Romney joining fellow Democrats. During the March confirmation hearings, Jackson said she would bring to the Supreme Court her life experiences and perspectives including her time as a judge, a court-appointed lawyer for criminal defendants who could not afford an attorney, a member of a federal commission on criminal sentencing and “being a Black woman, lucky inheritor of the civil rights dream.” Congratulations Justice Brown.
In a historic move, the Senate has confirmed Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson’s nomination to the Supreme Court. Watch the moment Democrats gave a standing ovation while some GOP members walked out of the chamber. pic.twitter.com/gkUd2dHpL7
Selena Gomez revealed she hasn’t been on the internet in four years despite being one of Instagram’s most-followed.
As we all know, anyone can go down a rabbit hole on the internet. Depending on what stage you are in during life, your mental health may or may not be affected by the glamorous, judgemental and sometimes wicked ways of the web. While speaking to Good Morning America, Gomez said she hasn’t used the Internet and she is much happier as a result.

“I think it’s just become really unhealthy,” Gomez said previously on Live With Kelly & Ryan in 2019. “To spend time fixating on all these comments and letting this stuff in, it was affecting me. It would make me depressed. It would make me feel not good about myself, and look at my body differently.”
The actress has been very vocal about her struggles with her mental health and bipolar disorder, the Internet is just one step she’s taking to ensure she is on her road to happier living. Could you live without the internet?
