Ari Fletcher’s Nearly Naked Instagram Story Reminds Fans That She “Worked Hard” For Her Body

by

Blac Chyna has been encouraging her fanbase to reconsider plastic surgery and cosmetic fillers as of late. On the other hand, socialites like Ari Fletcher are encouraging their fanbase to go under the knife with their scandalous thirst traps. Earlier this weekend, the mother of one shared a nearly nude image on her Instagram Story. She covered her nipples with a “censored” sticker while still teasing the outline of her breasts. “I worked hard for this,” she wrote in a black and white text box, which was used to cover her crotch area and the lower half of her behind.

Based on the look of her ultra-slim midsection, Fletcher may have already undergone the waist-slimming procedure that she spoke about last month. “I’m getting a stage 3 faja taken in at a double xs at the waist,” she explained at the time. “I’m about to wear a damn 3xs waist!” The YouTuber told her followers that the changes to her figure would take place before Hot Girl Summer. Her latest physique update proves that she’s obviously ready for some fun in the sun.

Ari Fletcher’s Bodacious Body

Fletcher’s thirst trap was reposted by @theneighborhoodtalk, whose comment section quickly filled with both supporters and haters. “You mean the surgeon worked hard?” and “Worked hard by laying on the table,” two users in the latter category pointed out. “Y’all so slow, even if you get surgery you still have to eat right and workout to maintain,” someone else said in the social media starlet’s defence. “Still have to be disciplined in some aspect.”

Elsewhere in the replies, some couldn’t help but crack jokes. “This is what I expect to look like after one session in the gym,” a viewer quipped. “Dang… Ima have to start my diet after I eat this chicken alfredo, loaded salad… Still trying to figure out dessert… But I’m having it… Plus a long night of drinking… Yea, after that,” another funny response reads.

Lil Tjay Teases Upcoming Album: “Putting My All Into This”

by

Lil Tjay has experienced a lifetime of ups and downs since his last studio album. Last June, he was shot seven times during an attempted robbery. After being taken to the hospital and eventually recovering, Tjay did all he could to get back on his feet. He soon released a diss track to his shooters titled “FACESHOT,” inspired by 50 Cent’s “Many Men.” He also recorded and dropped a song from his hospital bed titled “Beat the Odds.” In the past couple of months, he not only dropped another single in November titled “Give You What You Want,” but also featured on a groundbreaking song with one of the hottest artists in the genre.

“Gangsta Boo” off Ice Spice’s recent January EP saw Tjay and Spice crack the Billboard Hot 100 with the sensational collaboration. However, the release of this track came just days after Tjay was arrested for gun possession in New York. In fact, he was stopped and detained while on the way to the music video shoot for “Gangsta Boo.” Still battling these legal troubles, Tjay currently hopes to instead focus on his upcoming full-length solo project.

Lil Tjay’s Instagram Story

On Tuesday (Feb. 28), Tjay posted an Instagram story referencing his impending studio album. “Putting my all into this album this gon be my best one yet,” he wrote. “When I step better show me my respect ima vet.” Currently untitled and without a release date, Tjay evidently wants to gain more respect with this forthcoming LP.

He continued by making sure people don’t switch up after he drops the project. “Don’t try spin the block. I don’t wanna hear about regrets, bout some sh*t u knew u was wrong about but ain’t address. Thinking I was cold? but u bold!” he wrote. “It’s just been too long respectfully im rii back on the necks.” Tjay’s last studio album came with 2021’s Destined 2 Win. In April 2022, his freestyle “Lavish” was meant to be a teaser for a soon-to-come mixtape. But, understandably, his shooting likely derailed any rollout plans he had. Now, looking forward to his third studio album, it will be interesting to see what Tjay brings to the table.

Diddy Allegedly Posts And Deletes Mysterious Diss Towards An Unnamed Artist

by

The 65th Grammy Awards on Sunday (February 5) had a slew of highlights, whether for celebratory or disappointing reasons. However, Grammy season apparently sunk its teeth pretty hard into the competitive music landscape for some artists. Diddy posted a cryptic diss towards an unnamed artist on his Instagram story, and deleted it shortly after. Moreover, the scathing shot took aim at the mystery artist’s Grammys aspirations and previous success. “I helped you win your first and only grammy award which I did out of kindness,” Combs wrote. “And somehow you thought you could win another without my help ?? Oh okay..”

After the Bad Boy mogul’s post, many took to social media to take their guesses as to who he could be dissing. Before all that, though, some people noticed that the 53-year-old apparently helps people win awards. “The fact that Diddy is out there helping people win Grammies puts a lot of Grammy’s credibility into question. This is wild,” one Twitter user noted with a screenshot of the post. “Now I get why TAT won ahead of Antibals’s Fu Chronicles,” capping his message off with a facepalm emoji. In the replies, people speculated on who this could possibly refer to.

However, in the hours since this news broke, a few conflicting accounts made the waters murkier. When Onsite! reported the deleted post on Instagram, Diddy commented “This is fake.” Meanwhile, many others including TMZ came to the conclusion that Diddy dissed Burna Boy. Moreover, the Harlem native executive produced Burna’s 2020 album Twice As Tall, which won Best Global Music Album in 2021. Later, the Afrobeats star scored a nomination for his album Love, Damini in the same category this year.

Still, people on either side of the fence are defending their side of the story, since apparently people saw Diddy’s post before deletion. “Knowing you it’s probably true lol look how many artists you ‘helped’ then dropped….” one user wrote under his clarifying comment. “Lol i seen when u posted it wtf why u get to lyin,” another posted. While that back-and-forth could go on forever, it’s also possible that someone hacked his account and did post the message. If you’re curious, you can check out the screenshots of the posted and deleted Diddy diss at an artist below for yourself. Regardless, come back to HNHH for more updates on this story and the latest on Diddy.

Chris Brown Apologizes To Robert Glasper, Says They Shouldn’t Be In Same Grammy Category

by

It’s tough losing one of the most celebrated awards of the year, but Chris Brown’s reaction was heavily criticized. Brown lost out on Best R&B Album to industry giant Robert Glasper. On Instagram, he wrote, “Y’all playing. Who da f–k is this?” and “Who the f–k is Robert Glasper. I’ma keep kicking y’all a– respectfully.” A few more mocking comments were also made.

Glasper is an industry vet with several accolades under his belt. Black Radio III, the Grammy-winning album, hosted appearances from hitmakers like Jennifer Hudson, Common, and Erykah Badu. Brown’s reaction went viral, and soon, fans—as well as industry professionals—called him out for being a sore loser. The criticisms weren’t lost on the Breezy star.

The wave of pushback was almost palpable, and on Brown’s Instagram, he offered an update. The singer took to his Stories to share a screenshot of DM he sent to Glasper apologizing for his public behavior. “Congratulations my brother,” he began. “I would like to apologize if you took offense to my reaction at the Grammys. You were not the intended target and I know I came off really rude and mean.”

People quickly questioned why Brown wasn’t aware of Glasper’s work, especially if they were nominated for the same category. Others chastised him with remarks about needing to get into the studio with Glasper. “After doing my research I actually think your amazing… THE ORGANIZATION ISNT DOING US BLACKS OUR DUE DILIGENCE.” Brown then said that he and Glasper shouldn’t ever be in the same category because they are “two different vibes and genres.”

Brown added, “So, from one black man to another.. CONGRATULATIONS.. HOPE YOU ARE ABLE TO FEED YOUR FAMILY FOR LIFE. God bless my G.” This didn’t quite get Brown out of hot water because many weren’t thrilled about how he apologized, but you can let us know your thoughts. Check out more reactions below.

Nick Cannon’s Baby Mama LaNisha Cole Addresses Pregnancy Rumors

by

LaNisha Cole, the mother of Nick Cannon’s ninth child Onyx, just shut down rumors that she’s expecting another baby. Moreover, the model and actress criticized fans for jumping down her throat for not posting weight fast enough. She posted to her Instagram story: “No I’m not pregnant again,” on Thursday (February 2). Furthermore, she continued to air out her frustrations. “You guys are so used to SnapBack culture that you can’t let a woman be at peace with not losing her baby weight in a week.” Also, the 40-year-old said her “body is bigger,” but isn’t “in any rush to lose the weight.” She believes “it’ll come off in due time.”

“Until then there’s just more of me to love lol,” she stated cheekily. In addition, she posted a selfie-style video where she’s “thicker in the face” and “thicker in the waist. I haven’t been working out like I used to just because I’ve been busy taking care of the empress and working,” she continued. “As a new mom I have so many other things that are more of a priority for me. Empress Onyx has been ruling my life and I’m ok with it.

“She’s the boss of me,” she concluded. “I’ll work out again when she allows me to.” Furthermore, Cole and Cannon shocked (or mildly surprised) the world when they welcomed Onyx in September of 2022. Upon her birth, the TV host called Cole “one of the most guileless, peaceful and nonconfrontational kind souls.” However, she hasn’t posted anything regarding Cannon since Onyx’s church dedication last October.

Meanwhile, she actually aimed some comments at her baby daddy, apparently. “[Onyx] is incredibly blessed and is surrounded by so much love,” Cole posted. It’s not fake IG photo op love.” Moreover, the media star posted holiday snaps with his other children, co-parented with five other women, just moments before. “Calling me baby mama #538 every time I say the sky is blue is uncalled for and it’s getting old,” she shared days later. Regardless of their status, log back into HNHH for the latest on Nick Cannon’s love life.

Damson Idris Speaks On “Miserable People” Amid Lori Harvey Romance Reveal

by

Now that his romance with Lori Harvey has been confirmed, Damson Idris has found his social media mentions cluttered. The Snowfall actor appeared in new photos with Harvey as they put their affection on full display. Later, he appeared alongside the socialite at her 26th birthday party, and the public had quite a bit to say about Harvey’s dating past.

The attention was expected, which is most likely why the couple refrained from sharing the news of their union. This morning (January 17), Idris returned to social media with an update that seems to give a nod to the ongoing reactions.

“Happy back to the grind day. Be thankful for today,” wrote the actor. “[And] always remember, there are a bunch of miserable people out there who want to take your good vibes away. Don’t let them.”

The internet has lit up once again as the public discusses Harvey and her previous romances. Last year, she ended her relationship with Michael B. Jordan after a year together. Before that, the model was also tied to the likes of Future and Sean “Diddy” Combs.”

In a recent interview with Andrienne Houghton, Harvey seemingly addressed gossip about her dating a father and son.

Boosie Badazz Gets Into Minor Car Accident, Lets Driver Slide

by

Although it can be hectic, the holiday season usually puts people in a festive mood and promotes generosity.

It certainly seems as though the Christmas spirit got to Boosie Badazz this year.

The “Wipe Me Down” rapper was reportedly involved in a minor car accident during the holidays. He subsequently took to his Instagram account on Monday (December 26) to share a message surrounding the incident.

“Mothaf*cka just hit me in the back, mane. He ain’t damage my sh*t, he just hit my sh*t. I let him ride, dawg. 9:00-5:00 worker. N***a said, Boosie, mane, I don’t know what to tell you, bruh, I can’t pay you,” the 40-year-old says in the video.

Obviously, the Baton Rouge native is expecting others to pay it forward in case he accidentally hits someone while out on the roads. “I want y’all to let me slide. When I bump somebody, let me slide too. Be a real one. Let me slide. I let ya’ll slide. This [is] a Rolls Royce truck,” he continues afterwards.

In other recent news surrounding Boosie, he revealed his interest in directing a movie about YSL’s ongoing RICO case. Young Thug remains behind bars, awaiting trial. However, other YSL members have since been released after taking plea deals. Gunna, YSL co-founder Walter Murphy and Thugger’s brother, Unfoonk, are among those who have accepted deals.

There is certainly enough going on surrounding the trial to document it within a film. It will be interesting to see if the 40-year-old actually pulls it off.

After all, the movie business is not entirely new territory for the “Wipe Me Down” rapper. He has acted in several movies throughout his career, including 2010’s Ghetto Stories: The Movie. Furthermore, he’s responsible for writing, directing and producing his own movie, Where’s MJ, which saw a release on Christmas Day. It’s supposed to be his take on the classic holiday movie, Home Alone.

As always, make sure to stay tuned to HNHH for the latest music and pop culture updates. Finally, check out our newest holiday playlist here.

The rapper-songwriter has been dating Megan Thee Stallion for some time, but their affectionate posts have lulled in recent months.

“To any woman especially ones of color that has suffered an injustice I feel for you,” he wrote.

“To anyone with a daughter Sister mother niece or aunt .. I pray for their protection.” He added, “I pray for their covering” and said he “wouldn’t wish this on anyone.”

Megan’s intimate life was placed center stage when she took the stand. She has been accused of lying about her sexual relationship with Lanez, leaving her critics to state she wasn’t truthful about who shot her.

“I feel disgusted, I feel dirty, my own partner is embarrassed,” Megan told the court during her testimony. “I can’t even be happy, I don’t want to talk to friends or family.”

The jury is currently deliberating. Reports state if they can’t reach a verdict today, they can return to court tomorrow or take the day off and resume on Tuesday.

Summer Walker Defends Wanting White Or Gay Assistant, $2K Pay

by

A job posting by Summer Walker lit up the internet, and the singer returned to explain her position. Finding good help can be difficult for anyone, but when you’re a celebrity, you have to keep your wits about you. We’ve heard many stories about artists being taken advantage of by people on their teams, and it looks as if Walker doesn’t want to become a victim. The Still Over It hitmaker uploaded a post to her Instagram Story with the requirements for her new assistant. Almost immediately, Walker received pushback.

“Need male assistant, 2k month,” wrote the singer. “Age 25 & older atl have to have a car have to know how to build stuff.” Then, Walker added, “Preferably white or gay just saying [shrug emoji] & doesn’t give af about who I am or my music just need you to come work :).”

Soon, people began DMing Walker questioning her about her conditions. The singer shared a screenshot of someone saying it sounded like she doesn’t trust Black people.

“Everyone I’ve ever hired my whole career has been black besides Ro, it’ll be okay.” Later, Walker returned to explain her position to critics who complained about her $2,000 pay.

“I really would like to know that. ‘Oh, $2K ain’t enough, $2K ain’t enough.’ How do you know if it’s not enough? I could have told somebody to come over here once a week and smell my a**hole and leave. How do you know it’s not enough? Do you know the job description? Do you know the hours?”

“I am on maternity leave, I’m not working,” Walker added. “We have no shows, we have no club appearances, we have nowhere to go and nothing to do. I told somebody to come over here once a week to come take my f*cking trash out, sh*t like that. Put some gas in my car, sh*t I don’t feel like doing. But that is not y’all business, I don’t have to explain that to you.”

She also clarified why she requested a white and-or gay man.

“I’ve always hired Black people. Everybody that works for me is Black. If I wanna hire a white person, y’all sound like y’all discriminating, what’s the problem?”

“I want a gay man ’cause I don’t want nobody hitting on me and I wanted a white person, because honestly, you n*ggas…y’all know how n*ggas act.” Apparently, the position has been filled.

Check out a few reactions below.
