Lamar Odom Denies Karlie Redd Romance Rumors: “Happily Single”

Ever since Lamar Odom went public with his relationship with Khloé Kardashian, his love life has been in the spotlight. The former NBA star reemerged from the ashes of his health scare and overdose controversy with a new, more sober outlook on life, and by his side was his new leading lady, Sabrina Parr. The pair reportedly had a reality television show in the works and soon, they were announcing their engagement, but their on-again-off-again romance turned sour and came to a bitter end.

When photos and videos of Odom and Love & Hip Hop Atlanta star Karlie Redd began to circulate, the rumor mill lit up with gossip. Odom hadn’t confirmed or denied the alleged romance, but he’s now sharing he’s single and ready to mingle.

During his virtual visit to The Wendy Williams Show, Odom was hit with questions about his relationship with Karlie Redd. “We’re friends,” said Odom. “Really good friends, getting to know each other.” Williams asked him if they “sleep together” and was met with a dramatic pause before Odom chuckled. “As friends. No.” Wendy noted that Odom is no longer lying, but he clarified and said that the ketamine treatments he’s taking to help with his sobriety have made it harder for him to lie.

Williams wasn’t quite finished putting the pressure on Odom about Karlie and asked if she was in the room or had a key to his home. Both answers were met with a “no” answer. “I’m still single, Wendy,” said Odom. “Happily single. I’m in Atlanta.” Still, people speculate that Odom will make an appearance or two on Love & Hip Hop sometime soon.

Latto Reveals Recent “Health Scare” That Landed Her In The Emergency Room

She formally introduced her new name change today (May 21) with the release of her single “The Biggest,” and she’s addressing a few critics on social media. At the top of the morning, the artist formerly known as Mulatto returned with a new track where she speaks on the criticism she received regarding her Rap moniker. “The Biggest” came without much promotion and Latto took to Twitter to share why she was unable to support the single the way she would have liked to.

“Y’all don’t even know I been in the ER & wasn’t able to promote ‘The Biggest’ myself but I’m feeling better & seeing all the support feels amazing [red heart emoji][slot machine emoji],” the rapper tweeted.

“Thanks for hearing me out and accepting my apology!” she added. A Twitter user responded to Latto’s message by suggesting that her doctor’s visit was really a “cover up” for getting plastic surgery. Latto clapped back quickly and revealed that she wasn’t hiding cosmetic work.

“I actually was in the ER for a serious health scare,” she replied without giving any details. “I’m open about my surgeries this had nothing to do w that.” Soon, her fans came to her defense. Check out the tweets below as well as her new track, “The Biggest.”

Wendy Williams’s Ex Kevin Hunter Blasts Charlamagne Tha God

Kwame Brown isn’t the only person upset with Charlamagne Tha God. Earlier this week, Brown made headlines due to a verbal spat he was engaged in with Stephen Smith and Matt Barnes. The Breakfast Club later weighed in on the controversy, and a few notable remarks were made by Charlamagne Tha God. The radio host brought up Brown’s family and their sordid history that allegedly involves domestic abuse and murder.

Brown returned with a message for Charlamagne, asking him why he found it necessary to bring up family members that he has no relationship with in order to paint him in a certain light. The former NBA player brought up the previous rape case against Charlamagne and vowed to find the woman who was reportedly involved, and Wendy Williams’s ex-husband Kevin Hunter jumped in with a few words of his own.

Kevin Durant Shows His Appreciation For Jayson Tatum

Kevin Durant and his Brooklyn Nets are set to face off against the Boston Celtics in the first round of the NBA Playoffs. At this point, it seems like an inevitability that the Nets will win the series and will most likely go on to the NBA Finals. Despite this, the Celtics plan on putting up a good fight and with players like Jayson Tatum on the roster, they have a great shot at forcing this series to six or seven games.

In fact, KD gave big props to Tatum in a recent report from NBC Sports Boston. As Durant explained, Tatum has done a great job staying healthy throughout the season and that Tatum’s talent is among some of the best in the entire league. Based on KD’s words, it’s clear that he’s a fan of the young star.

Per KD:

“I mean, the way he plays the game, he never changes his style from scoring from the top of the key, to the post, from either side of the floor, adding passing to the game now. I feel like he has some blinders on and just focused in on developing and continuing to grow as a player, and that’s what I admire the most from afar. But he’s learning more and more about NBA defenses and as a young guy he’s been through so much already. He’s only going to get smarter, so I think at this point people have thrown everything at him and he’s handled it pretty well.”

Game 1 of the first round series between the Nets and Celtics will go down tomorrow in Brooklyn at 8 PM EST.

Coi Leray Won’t Be Caught In An Open Relationship: “NEVER”

A viral story today (May 21) has caused people to converse about what they will, and won’t, put up with in a relationship. Earlier today, TMZ reported that Travis Scott and Kylie Jenner had reignited their romance, but this time around, they were reportedly involved in an open relationship. The concept of polyamory has been around for millennia, but many people vocalized that they couldn’t participate in such a relationship, including Coi Leray.

The rapper took to her Twitter to share her thoughts. “I will never share my n*gga,” tweeted Leray. “I REPEAT ! NEVERRRRRRRR.”

“f I’m in a relationship, n*gga be ready to be with me to the day I die.. if you not ready for that commitment keepitmoving,” she added. However, she didn’t want people t attack Kylie for whatever relationship standards she and Travis may have had. “And one thing yall not gonna come for Kylie . B*tch I love Kylie.”

Yet, Kylie has already come forward to debunk claims that she is in an open relationship with the father of her child. “You guys really just make up anything,” Jenner wrote. “I’m not discrediting anyone who is in an open relationship but it’s just careless and disrespectful to throw this narrative out there without knowing what’s true.”

Check out Coi’s tweets below.

Dana White Claims He Is “Moving On” From Jon Jones

Dana White has always played hardball with his athletes and superstars like Jon Jones are no exception. Ever since Francis Ngannou defeated Stipe Miocic for the heavyweight title, there have been talks surrounding a Jones Vs. Ngannou title fight. Unfortunately, those have quickly gone by the way side as White claims that Jones is just asking for too much money, at this point. Instead, White has every intention of giving the title fight to Derrick Lewis, who is another star in the division.

While speaking to TMZ recently, White explained the situation with Jones and how it won’t be resolved anytime soon. White acknowledged that Jones can come back whenever he wants although for now, the UFC has moved on from negotiations with the undefeated legend.

“Yeah, I’ve absolutely moved on,” White said. “Listen, I put on fights every Saturday. We have a window where we try to build some fights and make some things happen. If the fights don’t happen within that window, we move on, and realistically, I mean I’ve been saying it since the beginning, Derrick Lewis is the guy who should be getting the title shots. He beat Francis Ngannou. He’s next in line, he’s coming off of great performances and that’s a wrap. We’re moving on.”

This will come as very disappointing news to all of the Jones fans out there although considering his history with White, it is to be expected at this point. Hopefully, a solution can be brought about sooner rather than later.
