21 Savage And His Kids Rock Out In The Car

by

21 Savage was recently joined by his children for a performance in his car. They serenaded social media in a clip shared yesterday, which got a lot of love from fans. In the video, the family shared their renditions of songs by Toosii, Tems, and more. They also sang along to their father’s song with The Weeknd, “Creepin’.” Though it’s likely fans won’t get a chance to see 21 Savage’s kids perform live any time soon, they can catch the rapper on his current tour with Drake this summer.

“This just made my heart smile,” one social media commented in response to the sweet clip. Another called it, “too cute.” The rapper and his children also performed a version of Lil Durk’s “All My Life,” featuring J. Cole, which he recently shared his thoughts on. He gave J. Cole credit for his contribution to the song, writing, “Cole just went so crazy on that verse wtf,” in May.

21 Savage also recently made a surprise appearance at the Dreamville Festival in Raleigh, North Carolina. Drake brought him out onstage at the event, co-headlined by J. Cole. He performed “Knife Talk” and “Rich Flex,” and later shared behind-the-scenes photos from the fest of him with two of his children. “Dreamville was different,” he said in his post.

Drake and 21 Savage announced their It’s All A Blur tour in March, which features over 50 stops across the U.S. Drake revealed plans for the tour during a Twitch livestream, where he said, “Ah, man, I can’t wait to see the people.” He continued, explaining, “It’s like one thing to make the music but to see it is the most gratifying feeling. It’s different when you’re performing, you look out in the crowd, someone locks eyes with you and you can just tell it’s a moment.” At the end of last year, 21 Savage and Drake shared their collaborative LP, Her Loss, with fans.

Kanye West & Kim Kardashian Continue To Co-Parent At Saint’s Soccer Game

by

Kanye West and Kim Kardashian were both in attendance at their son Saint’s soccer game in Tarzana on Sunday. In photos obtained by TMZ, both parents appeared cordial while co-parenting their children. A witness for the outlet described the two as appearing to be on decent terms, making small talk and discussing Saint’s performance throughout the game.

West and Kardashian have been separated since early 2021. At one of their kids’ recent sporting events, Ye brought his partner, Bianca Censori, although she wasn’t present at Sunday’s game. Kardashian appears to be single since dating Pete Davison from November 2021 through August 2022.

In total, West and Kardashian share four kids. They welcomed their daughter, North, in June 2013, their son, Saint, in December 2015, their second daughter, Chicago in January 2018, and their second son, Psalm, in May 2019.

Kardashian previously discussed the difficulty of co-parenting with West during an appearance on the Angie Martinez IRL podcast in December. “It’s hard. Shit like co-parenting, it’s really fucking hard,” she shared while wiping tears from her eyes. “I had the best dad. And I had the best memories and the greatest experience. And that’s all I want for my kids. As long as they can have that, that’s what I want for them. So, if they don’t know things that are being said, or what’s happening in the world, why would I ever bring that energy to them? That’s real heavy, heavy grown-up shit. And they’re not ready to deal with it, you know? When they are, we’ll have those conversations. And I’ll be so prepared. But until then, I’ll do anything to keep their life as normal as possible.”

Kardashian also said that she had prevented her kids from knowing the extent of West’s recent erratic behavior. “I definitely protected him and I still will in the eyes of my kids, for my kids,” she said during the interview.

Brian McKnight Slammed For “Insensitive” Instagram Post

by

Legendary musician Brian McKnight is a family man. He has four biological children. There are his sons Brian Jr. and Niko from his marriage to his college sweetheart, Julie. Then there is his daughter Brianna and son Clyde from previous relationships. That makes four biological children for McKnight.

Julie and McKnight split in 2003 but McKnight remarried in 2017. His second wife is Dr. Leilani Mendoza, whom he met in 2014. Mendoza has two children from a previous relationship, Julia and Jack. McKnight and Mendoza have since had a son, Brian, together. But it’s an Instagram post about Julia’s recent birthday that has riled up McKnight’s detractors online.

McKnight Critized For “Forgetting” Biological Children

The post that has sparked so much ire was originally posted by McKnight in December 2022. It shows McKnight with his step-daughter Julia, posing in front of a car he and his wife had given her for her birthday. McKnight included the caption “Today we celebrate you Jules on your birthday your mom and I couldn’t be prouder of you and I couldn’t ask for a better daughter than you!!! Happy birthday to the best daughter ever! Love u a zillion.”

People are seemingly only just discovering the post, as the discourse surrounding the post has only erupted in the past few days. McKnight’s detractors online are seemingly mad that his post appears to “ignore” or “forget” his biological daughter, Brianna. Furthermore, people have pointed to McKnight’s Instagram bio as further evidence that McKnight is “ignoring” his biological children.

Chris Brown Posts Up With His Three Kids

by

Chris Brown just warmed fans’ hearts with a picture of him and his three children: daughter Royalty, 8, son Aeko Catori, 3, and daughter Lovely Symphani, 1. Moreover, the children laid in Brown’s arms as he put on a goofy smile for the snap, and people gushed over their cuteness. Of course, this pic came amid the R&B star’s continued presence in the headlines for many more reasons. For example, many fans took note of his lewd and provocative choreography at Rolling Loud Thailand, which got fans either feeling sweaty or slightly uncomfortable.

However, a lot of discussion around Brown these days centered around his controversial collaborations, as well. One of these was “Freaky Friday” with Lil Dicky, who remarked on the race-swapping concept of the track and reckoning with Brown’s history of abuse. As a big fan of the “Yeah 3x” singer, Dave said that he felt touched by Brown giving him props, and said that song opened many doors for him. Also, he said that he “knows his heart is good” at the end of the day, referring to people criticizing him for working with a past abuser.

In addition, Chlöe addressed her fans’ backlash to her collab with Chris Brown for similar reasons. She remarked in a podcast interview that she “always just [wants to] let the music speak for itself. And to be honest, no matter what I do, people always find things to say about it, so I’m used to it. I just choose to ignore it. People have every right to their opinions, freedom of speech, and it’s up to me to choose what I give my attention and energy to. Everything I’m doing is ordained by God, and I’m walking in my purpose, and anybody who has a problem with that can kiss my booty.”

Meanwhile, the 33-year-old just let fans know that another collaboration is on the way, this time with Ciara. “ME AND @ciara got some [fire] coming,” he shared to Instagram. Time will tell whether reception to it differs from those recent examples. No matter what side of that debate you fall on, at least it seems like his children are by his side. Regardless, stick around on HNHH for the latest news and updates on Chris Brown.

Kylie Jenner On Having More Kids: “Whatever Happens Is Meant To Happen”

by

Kylie Jenner says that she’s not necessarily planning on having more children, but isn’t against the idea either. The 25-year-old mother of two discussed her plans for the future during a new interview for a Hommegirls cover story published on Tuesday.

When asked what she’s most proud of, Jenner replied: “My kids. Experiencing pregnancy and motherhood.” And as for whether she’ll have any more, she answered: “I don’t have a number in my mind. Some women do but I don’t really have a plan. I think that whatever happens is meant to happen.”

When asked to elaborate on that point, Jenner continued: “Like whatever happens happens? I think I’ve always felt that way. I believe things are written for us. Whatever is gonna happen, it’s gonna happen. But I also feel very in control of my life and my decisions.” Jenner gave birth to her and Travis Scott’s daughter, Stormi, in February 2018. After an on and off again relationship for several years, Jenner welcomed her second child with Scott, a son, in February 2022.

Elsewhere in her interview with Hommegirls, Jenner reflected on her decision to get lip filler when she was younger. She described it as the “best thing I’ve ever done.” “I think a big misconception about me is that I’ve had so much surgery on my face and that I was some insecure person, and I really wasn’t! Yeah, I love full lips and wanted full lips, but growing up I was always the most confident person in the room. I was the girl performing for everyone,” she said. “I had my one lip insecurity thing, so I got lip filler, and it was the best thing I’ve ever done. I don’t regret it. But I always thought I was cute.” She also said that the beauty advice she’d give Stormi would be, “Be confident, always be confident in yourself.” She further described her as “perfect the way that she is.”

Nick Cannon Considers Dating Taylor Swift On “The Howard Stern Show”

by

Nick Cannon says that he’s currently satisfied with having 12 kids, but would make an exception for one woman in particular, Taylor Swift. Cannon appeared on SiriusXM’s The Howard Stern Show, Monday, and discussed the current state of his love life.

The discussion kicked off with Stern asking Cannon whether he’ll have more kids. “Every time I answer this question – I can never answer it correctly because I don’t know,” Nick admitted with a laugh. “I’m happy currently with the [children] that I got.” As for the type of woman that could make Cannon reconsider, he said, “She’d have to be cold. She’d have to be amazing.”

From there, Stern asked if Taylor Swift would be that type of woman. “Absolutely, I’m in — let’s go … That’s the one!” Cannon replied. He went on to praise her songwriting abilities and willingness to be vulnerable in her music before concluding, “Me and Taylor’s numbers are very similar when we’re talking about being in these streets. So, I think she would relate to me very well. We probably would really understand each other.”

Co-host Robin Quivers remarked, “She’s free and single,” to which Cannon joked, “My Spidey-Sense is tingling. I think that would be amazing.” Swift had been in a relationship with her longtime partner, Joe Alwyn, for six years before the two called it quits in recent weeks. News of their breakup was first reported by ET. The outlet cited sources that said the split was amicable and “it was not dramatic.” They added that “the relationship had just run its course. It’s why [Alwyn] hasn’t been spotted at any shows.” They’ve yet to comment on the breakup publically, but throughout their time together, both were very private about their relationship. Swift is currently traveling the world to perform on her sold-out 52-stop Eras Tour.

Elsewhere in Cannon’s interview on The Howard Stern Show, he discussed his relationship with Will Smith and the Oscars slap, being friends with Pete Davidson, and more. Check out a clip from Cannon’s appearance on the show below.
