Marlon Wayans has been sued by Brittany Moreland, who is seeking child support for the child Wayans allegedly fathered with her last year. Moreland says she makes $21K a month but spends $14K on rent and other necessities. Meanwhile, she alleges that Wayans makes $200K a month and is more than able to pay child support. Wayans has not publicly responded to the allegations at this time.
Furthermore, many fans have found the maternity photos that Moreland posted during her pregnancy. A man she claims to be the baby’s father is present in the photo. However, he is facing away from the camera and is not tagged in the photo. Despite this, a number of Moreland’s friends have claimed that the man is in fact Wayans.
Marlon Wayans Details NSFW Fantasy About Orange Is The New Black Star Taryn Manning Amid Affair Drama
Elsewhere, Wayans had a bizarre reaction to the news that actress Taryn Manning had rimmed a man amid an affair last year. “Damn, i been wanting her to lick my ass for years… smh … she always had that “I’ll lick you ass” look about her too .. for real tho. @vladtv crazy for this one. Why is this a HEADLINE?! There so much wrong in this!!!! Is it the ass eating? Is it the ass eating of a married man?!

However, secondly, Wayans also makes the perfect point – why is this a headline? Of course, when a story like this comes out, people are going to write about it. But Wayans essentially destroys the entire gossip media industry with this one Instagram caption. What is it about this story that makes it newsworthy? Is it the act? The fidelity? Or the fact that in 2023, a woman famous for movies dares to be open about her sex life. It’s no secret that world is growing more sexually conservative.
Kelly Rowland recently appeared on The Today Show to plug her new movie with Tyler Perry, Mea Culpa. On Thursday (February 15), she was apparently supposed to co-host the show for a brief moment, but allegedly walked off set after their morning interview just hours prior. Apparently, according to various news outlets like PEOPLE and Page Six, the Destiny’s Child member and her team chose to leave because the dressing room they had was too small. But Marlon Wayans, her co-star on 2022’s horror comedy flick The Curse of Bridge Hollow, doesn’t think this reflect the person that he knows.
“Y’all stop with these false narratives,” Marlon Wayans captioned a recent Instagram post on the matter. “I’ve worked with [Kelly Rowland] as a star/producer. I will honestly say she was nothing short of AMAZING. Sweet, kind, professional. On time, great energy, impeccable manners and professionalism. She was nice to EVERYONE on set. Not one diva moment. S**t happens in Hollywood. Get both sides before you castrate anymore legends. Love this woman. Yall stop this BS. This woman was nothing short of a humble loving queen… PERIOD.”
Apart from Kelly Rowland, Marlon Wayans was also recently outspoken about how Black male entertainers are held up to bigoted societal standards when compared to their white peers. “You talking to a black man that put on a dress,” he expressed during a recent radio interview. “That conversation to me, its silly. “It’s a negative thing that is only in Black people. We have for some reason been programmed to look down on the cr*ziest parts about our spirits. We’re supposed to embrace our past, our history, our heroes, different levels of comedy.
“Robin Williams puts on a dress and wins an award, his community embraces him,” the actor continued. “We’re labeled by our own people. That is not an artist mindset. When you’re an artist you go out and create art.” For more news and the latest updates on Kelly Rowland and Marlon Wayans, keep checking in with HNHH.
Keke Palmer is solving a matter for the girls: Who is the finest Wayans brother? Hitting Instagram, Palmer shared an image with Marlon Wayans and told her the truth.

Marlon Wayans wants Hip-Hop to return to the positivity, appearing on Sway’s Universe. Wayans is calling for the beef to stop and not escalate. “We too old to be that dumb, and kids, stop with this stupidity,” Wayans said. “Life is so precious. I’m so grateful to be able to be 51, right. To be able to have lived a long life, my parents would have wanted that.”
Marlon Wayans is shedding light on being the father of a trans child. Speaking on The Breakfast Club, Wayans revealed that his daughter, Amai, transitioned into his son, Kai, and will be a topic in his next standup special, Skittles or Rainbow Child.
Amazing!
Being a good parent is of utmost importance. Being a good parent to a transgender son or daughter is equally important.
This is such touching commentary by Actor and comedian Marlon Wayans.
You may know Wayans from “White Chicks,” “Scary Movie,” or “Marlon.”
“My daughter Amai is now Kai, and so, I talk about the transition,” Wayans said. “Not their transition, but my transition as a parent, going from ignorance and denial to complete unconditional love and acceptance.”
Wayans stated the transition was “painful,” but as a parent, he wants the best for his children. “As a parent, I just want my kids to be free. I want them to be free in spirit, free in thought, free to be themselves. The more you know yourself, the more you can govern yourself. The more you live your truth, the happier your existence. So, if they can’t get that in the household with their father and their mother, how the fuck do I send them out into the world with that kind of confidence?”
Actor and comedian Marlon Wayans is at the center of a legal battle following a luggage dispute that unfolded in June. Wayans claims that he is being unfairly prosecuted for disturbing the peace in connection with the incident, which he alleges was tainted by racial bias.
The dispute in question occurred at Denver’s airport when Wayans attempted to board a United Airlines flight bound for Kansas City with three bags. According to court documents filed by Wayans’ attorneys, a United Airlines gate agent initially informed him that he could not board the flight with three bags, which was against airline policy. In response, Wayans consolidated his luggage into two bags to comply with the airline’s rules.
However, a situation escalated when the gate agent seemingly tried to physically block Wayans from boarding the flight even after he had adhered to the luggage policy. Despite this, Wayans proceeded to board the plane, only to be asked to disembark before the flight departed.
The crux of Wayans’ complaint is that while he was rearranging his luggage, the gate agent allowed white passengers with three bags to board the flight. The court filing included still photos of surveillance video, highlighting white passengers with yellow arrows pointing to each of their bags. Approximately 140 passengers boarded the flight, with many carrying three bags or oversized bags that were in violation of the airline’s policy.
Wayans’ legal team asserts that this incident was marred by racial discrimination. They claim that the gate agent specifically targeted Wayans due to his race, allowing white passengers to board with an identical number of bags and that this discrimination continued as Denver prosecutors pursued charges against Wayans. By doing so, they argue, they are perpetuating racial discrimination and denying him equal protection under the law.
In a statement from Wayans’ lawyers, they expressed their concern about the situation, stating, “The City of Denver’s position is an affront to constitutional and social equity principles.” The case not only highlights the ongoing issues surrounding racial profiling but also raises questions about the responsibility of authorities to ensure that equal protection is upheld for all individuals, regardless of their race.
As Marlon Wayans continues to fight these charges, this case draws attention to the broader issues surrounding racial bias and the importance of addressing them in all aspects of life, including law enforcement and the justice system.
At the intersection of comedy, film, and entrepreneurial genius sits Marlon Wayans.

By the way, for those keeping track at home, the man’s net worth clocks in at a robust $50 million in 2023, according to CAknowledge.

Conclusion: An Everlasting Imprint
Marlon Wayans is far more than a comedic genius with a recognizable last name. He’s a multifaceted mogul who has dominated various aspects of the entertainment industry. From his early life in New York to a career spanning multiple decades and genres, Marlon has established himself as an irreplaceable figure in American culture. Overall, his balance between personal life, career, and business ventures makes him a wealthy individual. It is an example of what it means to be a Renaissance man in the modern world.
Earlier this week, actress Taryn Manning found herself at the center of NSFW drama. Best known for roles in 8 Mile and Orange Is The New Black, Manning shared a video in which she discussed how she was currently engaged in an affair with a married man. As part of that video, Manning revealed that one of the sex acts she performs with the individual in question is rimming, i.e. eating ass. Manning later apologized for the video, stating that she regretted making the information public.
Of course, there has been a wave of backlash to the video. For some people, it’s the affair. For others, it’s the “deviant” sex act. Another group, primarily on the right of the political spectrum, objected to the basic premise of Manning talking about sex on a public forum to begin with. Marlon Wayans, however, had a much different response. The actor and comedian chose to respond to the news by getting very horny on main about Manning herself. All folded into a surprisingly sex-positive message.
“Damn, i been wanting her to lick my ass for years… smh … she always had that “I’ll lick you ass” look about her too .. for real tho. @vladtv crazy for this one. Why is this a HEADLINE?! There so much wrong in this!!!! Is it the ass eating? Is it the ass eating of a married man?! Or is that the girl from 8 mile is no longer known for that because her ass eating ass has eclipsed her wonderful acting talents. Today confuses me so much. Back to laughing Hustle and Flow, 8 mile don’t matter she eating married men bootyhole…. The fuck manNow just how is a man ‘posed to be faithful to his wife when you got movie stars out here butt licking. Sorry hun. Y’all better hope to GOD i don’t do a sketch show because it will be RELENTLESS,” Wayans wrote on Instagram.

Marlon Wayans insists that he is not responsible for missing his upcoming show due to an incident with United Airlines. However, the police seem to see things a bit differently. They have issued him a citation related to the incident. According to a spokesperson from the Denver Police Department, Wayans had a confrontation with a gate agent from United Airlines. This happened earlier today, (June 9) while attempting to board a flight from Denver. After speaking with all parties involved, including Wayans, the police cited him for disturbing the peace.
A witness shared that Wayans became upset when he was instructed to check a bag during the boarding process. This is something that can often happen, but Wayans wasn’t having any of it. Allegedly, he slammed his ticket on the counter. Then, he proceeded to board the plane despite the gate agent’s attempt to stop him. The gate agent then called for security. However, a source close to Marlon claims that he was initially told to consolidate his bag. Later, he was informed that he had to check it.
Wayans Finds A Way Out
Around 30 minutes after the initial desk incident, Marlon Wayans was escorted off the plane. Reportedly, that’s when the police became involved. There is video footage of Marlon looking angry as he leaves the ticketing counter. TMZ has posted the video, which can be viewed above. Wayans expressed his frustrations with the airline on Twitter after the event. “If this is how United treats their first-class customers… I’d rather fly any competitor coach,” he said. “Sorry KC, I’m gonna miss tonight’s shows due to a United gate agent who probably hated white chicks.” In this tweet, he references the movie White Chicks that he and his brother, Shawn, starred in back in 2004.
Marlon was scheduled to perform at the Kansas City Improv on Friday night. However, he claims that the entire ordeal caused him to miss the show. He further tweeted, “It’s not my fault; blame the gate agent and United Airlines.” He went on to reiterate that he can’t believe that the airline would treat customers so badly. “I can’t believe how they allow their first-class customers to be treated this way,” Wayans tweeted. “I need corporate to reach out, DM me. This agent was rude.” A source informed TMZ that Wayans eventually managed to fly out of Denver using another airline. What do you think of the ordeal? Was Marlon Wayans in the wrong? Let us know in the comments below!
Marlon Wayans is a Hollywood titan in both comedy and drama. From serious roles in films like Requiem for a Dream to the slapstick insanity of A Haunted House there isn’t much the legendary comedian can’t tackle. But Wayans’s true calling is in his nuanced comedic performances where he blends manic reactions with sharp-tongued dialogue. Let’s look at seven of his best comedic roles where he flexes those chops.
7. Howard Gordon – The Curse of Bridge Hollow (2022)
The Curse of Bridge Hollow sees Marlon Wayans in a shockingly subdued comedic role. The film follows a family who’ve relocated from Brooklyn to a small New England town, encountering the supernatural. Specifically, Halloween decorations come to life and terrorize the town. Wayans leans into his role as a patriarch with warmth and gravitas but maintains a sense of manic hilarity. The Curse of Bridge Hollow proves that Marlon Wayans can easily bring his comedic sensibilities to a family-friendly affair.
6. Kenny Tyler – The 6th Man (1997)
In The 6th Man, Wayans portrays Kenny Tyler, a rising basketball star. When his brother and teammate, Antoine, suddenly dies on the court, Kenny and his teammates start losing their mojo. Their bad luck soon changes when Antoine appears as a ghost to his brother in the locker room. With the assistance of Antoine’s ghostly perks, Kenny and the team regain their winning streak. Marlon Wayans plays the bereaved brother well, but once he starts to be literally haunted, he turns in a fantastic comedic performance.
5. Seymour Stewart – Mo’ Money (1992)
Mo’ Money follows the exploits of two brothers, Johnny and Seymour Stewart (played but Damon and Marlon Wayans, respectively). The brothers are low-level crooks who get into identity theft and are entangled in a web of criminal intrigue. The film wasn’t a critical darling upon release but was a box-office success and has since garnered cult status. Marlon Wayans delivered hilarious lines with frenetic energy in his first big outing as a supporting actor. He was able to sell the character of a crook whose scheming mind worked almost as fast as his mouth. While his limited screen time wasn’t paramount to the film, he stole every scene he stepped into.
4. Gawain MacSam – The Ladykillers (2004)
The Coen Brothers’ remake of the 1955 film The Ladykillers is an often-overlooked entry in their filmography. This is primarily due to the stellar cast of character actors as a band of misfit scam artists. Marlon Wayans plays Gawain MacSam, a janitor who acts as the inside man for the gang’s big heist in the film. Wayans delivers the Coen Brothers’ dialogue with such confident bluster it sounds like foul-mouthed poetry. He is a highlight in a film packed to the brim with vibrant characters and scenery-chewing performances. Wayans’ take on the character of Gawain vacillates from crass to endearing right up until his final moments in the film.
3. Marcus Copeland/Tiffany Wilson – White Chicks (2004)
Look, White Chicks is not a great film. It hangs the workings of a solid sketch comedy premise on the bones of a feature-length film, with mixed results. However, Marlon Wayans’s insane performance is nothing short of hilarious. Yes, it’s crass and often offensive, but something is charming about it. The film follows two Black FBI agents who go undercover as white women to collar a high-profile drug dealer. The reasons for this ruse are ridiculous and convoluted. Thankfully, the film is anchored by hilarious performances by Marlon and his brother Shawn. They push the limits of good taste with gross-out comedy, as well as commentaries on race and gender that don’t always hit their mark.
2. Shorty – Scary Movie 2 (2001)
The fact that Scary Movie 2 works as well as it does is nothing short of a miracle. The film was written and produced less than a year after the original’s release. You can certainly see those time constraints on the screen, for better and worse. While the film is a mixed bag, a few standouts remain hilarious the whole way through. Most notably, the character of Shorty, who Marlon Wayans reprised from the first film, kills it. Wayans seems just to be doing improv while inhabiting an insane stoner character, but he pulls it off.
1. Loc Dog – Don’t Be A Menace To South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood (1996)
Don’t Be Menace… is a parody masterpiece. It’s also a snapshot of the cinema landscape at the time, lovingly poking fun at the deluge of “hood films” in the early nineties. It inspected the tropes found in classic films by directors like John Singleton, Spike Lee, and F. Gary Gray through a Mad Magazine lens. While there are plenty of standout comedic performances here, the most memorable is Marlon Wayans as the street-smart and eccentric Loc Dog. The character contains layers of jokes, from his wardrobe to how he mugs at the camera. Even if Loc Dog isn’t delivering jokes in the scene, he’s getting laughs.
