If there is one thing that the Kardashian-Jenners will do, it’s stand together in unity. The close-knit family has always stood in solidarity throughout the craziest of circumstances, from legal troubles to breakups to scandals, so it shouldn’t come as a surprise to the public that for Kanye West’s birthday, they would collectively show love to the Rap mogul.
Even amid their divorce, Kim poste a photo of the West family, kids included, while sharing a sweet message. “Happy Birthday
Love U for Life! [balloon emoji],” the caption read to a post that pulled in over 3.5 million likes. Over on Khloé Kardashian’s Instagram, she also sent her “brother for life” well wishes with a photo that showed Kanye, Kim, Tristan Thompson, and Khloé. A “fan” thought Khloé was taking a dig at her sister’s pain.
“The whole ‘brother for life’ this is too petty for me,” commented the Instagram user before addressing Kim. “You divorce was so hard on you even the picture is just uncalled for. There is so many other pictures.” Khloé had the time and slid right in the comments to respond.
“Why are you even commenting on something you know nothing about?” she questioned. “You don’t think me and my sisters talk about one another’s feelings? We are with one another everyday. This is MY FAMILY. Not yours! Don’t comment as if you in the know unless you are actually in the know.”
Khloé closed out her response by calling the user a “Weirdo!!!!!” Check out the exchange in full below.
The 2020 MTV Video Music Awards worked around the guidelines presented by the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic. Last year, there was no live audience, and the performances were almost all pre-recorded. Nonetheless, even with the show being scaled down because of the pandemic, it was still held in New York with restrictions in place.
The 2021 edition of the popular awards show will take in NYC once again, at the Barclay’s Center– however this year, it will be returning to the favored live format.
On Tuesday, June 8th, MTV officially announced that the 2021 broadcast will air on September 12th. To coincide with the anniversary of the September 11th, 2001 terrorist attacks, MTV has partnered with the non-profit organization 9/11 Day. Together, 9/11 Day and MTV will lead a series of activities and programs to honor the lives that were lost and those lives that were affected by the attacks.
More details, along with performers, presenters, and the evening’s host, will be announced within the coming months leading up to this year’s ceremony. Barclay’s Center and MTV will also make sure to co-operate closely with health and safety protocols as the COVID-19 pandemic is not over just yet.
What’s the most memorable MTV VMA’s performance you can recall? Sound off in the comments below.
Back in 2000, comedy fans were thrilled when the Kings of Comedy hit theaters. Steve Harvey, Bernie Mac, D.L. Hughley, and Cedric The Entertainer all joined together for a stand-up routine that has gone down in comedy history, but Katt Williams recently revealed that he had a bone to pick with one of his fellow comedians.
During the film, Cedric closes out his routine with a joke about having to park a large spaceship Cadillac. In an interview with The Morning Hustle, Williams revealed that the joke was originally his and he was “crushed” when he saw Cedric perform it on the big screen.
“Well, when it initially happened to me, it crushed me just because the comedian was already bigger and more famous than me and he took my closing joke and made it his closing joke on Kings of Comedy,” said Williams. “The reason it hit so bad was that I was in the theater. I paid my money to go see Kings of Comedy and to see my joke being there and not me was about as disrespectful as it gets in our craft and I took it really personally with Cedric The Entertainer at that time.”
“Now, since then, I’ve done enough work with ten comedy specials. You either have to write your own jokes or you’re telling a variation of my joke, whether you acknowledge it or not.” Katt Williams added that as artists, you’re either “originally creating or you are borrowing bits and pieces.” When asking if he ever confronted Cedric about the incident, Williams said he hadn’t addressed it.
“I’m not that type of comedian. I’m going in your mouth where the joke is when you steal my jokes, and I have a reputation in this industry that if you steal my joke, you’re gonna be missing a tooth or two… I don’t play like that.”
Check out Williams’s interview below and the joke in question from Kings of Comedy above.
Ellie Kemper has a long few weeks of apologizing and accountability ahead of her, after it was revealed she was crowned the winner of the historically racist St. Louis Prophet Ball in 1999. She responded to the controversy in a lengthy Instagram post where she detailed how she was unaware of the prejudice surrounding the ball and condemned white supremacy, and now her dear friend Tituss Burgess is stepping up alongside her. Burgess told Page Six that he has been in communication with the Office star, who has largely been silent on social media aside from her apology, and said briefly that the actress was doing well in the midst of all the drama.
“My Ellie is doing wonderful. Ellie’s great,” the 42-year-old Broadway and TV actor told Page Six, offering that that’s all he would say about her. The duo co-starred in Netflix’s Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt for four seasons, which was nominated for twenty Emmy Awards. Many have now claimed similarities between the show’s plot, which finds Kemper’s character readjusting to society after escaping a cult, and Kemper’s own life, after the story broke that she took part in the Prophet Ball.
Burgess reposted the actress’s apology when it was posted, adding on the side of it: “I love my Ellie, Oh, & P.S. Next time, just ask me, I’ll tell ya what to do.” The actor, who changed his image over quarantine with the hiring of a personal trainer and a plastic surgeon, is now focused on the gradual reopening of Broadway venues and shows. He recently performed at the Roundabout Theater Company’s 2021 gala in Central Park.

Two years ago, DaBaby stepped into the mainstream with his breakout single, “Suge,” which was also the highlight of his debut album, Baby On Baby. Since then, the North Carolina-bred rapper has gone on to become one of hip-hop’s most commercially successful rappers. His 2020 album, Blame It On Baby, and its No. 1 single “Rockstar” with Roddy Ricch are both proof of that. And they’ve only made DaBaby more confident as a rapper.
DaBaby took to his Instagram Story to send a message to his competition. “Best mf rapper & I’m on ALLLAT shit these n****s LIE about,” he declared. “I’m him frfr. If a n**** ain’t tryna work with the real thang he SCARED. The best supposed to compete w/ the best These n****s just TALK like they like dat SHUUUUT UP.”
It’s unknown what exactly DaBaby feels people are lying about, but whatever it is, this outburst may join a growing list of his controversial moments. Last week, one of his Billion Dollar Baby artists, Wisdom, was arrested and charged with attempted first-degree murder with a deadly weapon and aggravated assault with a firearm after he shot a man in the calf following a verbal altercation. On a lighter note, he recently joined Yo Gotti for their strip-club friendly track “Drop.”
They came into the Rap game as close friends but now the YBN crew is falling apart. The most popular of the bunch are YBN Almighty, YBN Nahmir, and Cordae, the latter of who announced that he was dropping “YBN” from his stage name in August 2020. There have been rumors about what has led to the disbanding of sorts from the group that consists of several other members, but these three have contended that regardless of any name changes, they’re still like brothers.
However, as Cordae continues to work on his next release, Nahmir and Jay have been trading insults online. Following the Floyd Mayweather-Logan Paul fight, Jay appeared on social media, challenging Nahmir to a fight. In a video that has gone viral, it didn’t look as if this was a playful invitation, and after Nahmir answered the call, it was clear that there is some real animosity between these former friends.
The two even shared a screen in an Instagram Livestream where they yelled at one another about an altercation they were apparently involved in. “I beat yo ass while I was sittin’ down!” said Nahmir. Jay told him to “put that on yo mama” and Nahmir did just that. “I been put you down,” Nahmir added. “I’m deadass. What I gotta lie for?”
In another video, Jay attempted to explain his “almost two-year” beef with his friend. “An incident end up like, occurring with some n*ggas I used to be cool with. They end up doing something and Nahmir end up gettin’ caught up in it somehow,” said Jay. Whatever went down, Jay claimed that he paid out $30K and Nahmir paid $10K. Months later, said Jay, a mutual friend allegedly told him that Nahmir believed Jay owed him that $10K.
Jay wasn’t quite finished and in another clip shared that he’s been at odds with his label over removing “YBN” from his name, especially on social media. He declared that his name is “Almighty Jay” from this point forward. Look through the videos below to catch Jay and Nahmir’s beef.
Regardless of the criticism they receive from strangers on the internet, Lil Uzi Vert and JT are going strong. The pair have often defended their romance against trolls, but the negativity hasn’t stopped them from boasting about and showing love to one another. They reportedly received matching tattoos of each other’s names, and Boosie Badazz weighed in on the couple’s progression during an interview with VladTV.
“My first girl that I was with for like, nine years, ten years, probably more than that, me and her got matching tattoos,” said Boosie. “We got a music symbol right here, but I ain’t got no girl name on me.” He added that if someone gets their partner’s name tattooed on themselves, they “might as well gon’ ‘head and get married.”
Vlad wanted to know what Boosie’s tattoos symbolized and after giving a brief tour of his body art, the pair moved on to discussing Uzi’s $24 million diamond that he allegedly had “implanted” into his forehead.
“I don’t know, you put a $24 million diamond on your head, you gotta have $250 million,” Bossie stated. “I feel like if you didn’t do that, that was a waste. It’s too many people in people families that hurtin’ to pull out sh*t like that if you ain’t really living like that. I don’t know what he got, I’m just saying, if it was that way, I feel like—’cause $24 million, you spend that, nobody in your family should, everybody in your family should basically be living like you.”
Vlad added that he looked up Uzi’s net worth and it’s allegedly $20 million. Boosie said if that is true, and if Uzi really did spend all that money on his diamond, then he’s in debt.

Former President Obama sat down with CNN’s Anderson Cooper Monday night to discuss everything from the current state of American politics to the volatile social reckonings happening in young communities. Of the many issues dividing Americans today that were brought up in the interview, one of specific interest is cancel culture, which has been a hot button issue from celebrities who blast it as “boring” to politicians who vow to “cancel cancel culture.” On the topic, which socially and professionally ostracizes those who have a history of offensive behavior or making offensive statements, the former President finds that it surely has its uses in some contexts, but often extends too far in expecting every member of society to act perfectly.
“I think that a lot of the dangers of cancel culture and we’re just going to be condemning people all the time,” the 44th President said. Though he thinks that it is applicable in some circumstances where discrimination must be condemned, he finds that more exaggerated examples of cancel culture serve to undermine true activism.
Still, he is optimistic sees hope for the future in the experiences of his daughters Sasha and Malik: “at least among my daughters they will acknowledge sometimes among their peer group or in college campuses you’ll see folks going overboard.” The damages of going “overboard” though are small compared to the real change and dialogue happening between young people. This is pulling the country in a more equitable direction, Obama believes.
In 2019, the former President spoke similarly about “woke culture” which he found as a poor substitute for activism.
Do you think cancel culture can go too far? Let us know. Watch the interview clip via TMZ below.
