TD Jakes Reveals He Underwent Emergency Surgery Following Health Scare

December 1, 2024 by newhiphopnews

TD Jakes is still recovering from his medical emergency earlier this month, and addressed his church virtually to give them his first update on the matter. “I’m grateful for this season in my life,” he began. “I told you last Sunday that I’d see you this Sunday, and so here I am. I am grateful to God for his goodness and his grace. Many of you don’t realize that you’re looking at a miracle. I faced a life-threatening calamity, was rushed to the ICU unit, I had emergency surgery, survived the surgery. Yeah, I’m back. And the doctor wants me to go slow coming back.”

However, this comes after Bishop T.D. Jakes suggested that a Diddy accuser’s legal team is what provoked the stress that led to this emergency. “These accusations are patently false,” he claimed via a defamation lawsuit against fellow pastor Duane Youngblood, who accused Jakes of trying to sexually assault him when he was 18 or 19 years old. “Bishop Jakes never kissed or tried to kiss Youngblood, never cornered him or forced him into any situation (sexual or otherwise), and certainly never told him that he wanted to sleep with him or had any conversation of a sexual nature at all with him.

“The interactions described by Youngblood during his LRL interviews on October 28 and November 3 never happened — period,” T.D. Jakes alleged. “This lawsuit is intended to bring that scheme to a halt. To end the extreme emotional, physical, and spiritual toll Defendants’ conduct has caused Bishop Jakes, to set the record straight so the world understands the patent falsity of the accusations, and to restore Bishop Jakes’s reputation.”

Now that Bishop T.D. Jakes is in a more stable condition, it’s likely that he will return to his church soon enough and continue to connect with his congregation. However, we understand that it’s a very complicated situation and that we don’t know many important details about this, so we’ll see how this works out. In any case, we wish Jakes the best in his path to recovery and hope that he can carry out his mission and engage with his passion sooner rather than later.

Bishop TD Jakes Is Stable Following Health Scare During Sermon

November 25, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Folks recently shared their well-wishes and shocked sympathies for Bishop TD Jakes, who recently suffered a medical emergency at his church in Dallas, Texas on Sunday (November 24) during a sermon. Now, the church in question, The Potter’s House, has issued a statement on the matter that should hopefully assuage fans’ worries. “During today’s service, Bishop T.D. Jakes experienced a slight health incident and received immediate medical attention following his powerful hour-long message. Bishop Jakes is stable and under the care of medical professionals. the entire Potter’s House family is grateful for the outpouring of love, prayers, and support from the community. Thank you for your understanding and continued prayers.”

Hopefully Bishop T.D. Jakes continues to recover well and is able to return to his calling sooner rather than later. While he’s always been a notable pop culture figure, he really rose in the headlines and Internet gossip circles last year when folks alleged a connection to the Diddy scandal. Apparently, Jakes had been to some parties and indulged in the alleged “freaky” activity that took place at them. It didn’t take long before a response emerged.

“Recent claims circulating on pockets of social media about Bishop T.D. Jakes are unequivocally false and baseless,” his team relayed in a statement. “What has always been true, in the words of the late Pastor Charles H. Spurgeon, ‘If you want the truth to go round the world you must hire an express train to pull it; but if you want a lie to go round the world it will fly; it is as light as a feather, and a breath will carry it.’ [It’s] disheartening to witness the proliferation of numerous deepfake photos and the distortion of words through false, sensationalized misrepresentations, encapsulating purported statements to falsely speculate and attack others, including Bishop Jakes.”

Meanwhile, Bishop T.D. Jakes himself condemned Diddy’s assault of Cassie after the hotel footage surfaced, so he’s done what he can to distance himself from those assumptions. Hopefully he doesn’t face any further challenges regarding his health scare, and he can return to his life’s work with the same passion.

Bishop TD Jakes Seemingly Suffers Medical Emergency During Sunday Sermon

November 24, 2024 by newhiphopnews

TD Jakes, the bishop and pastor that rose to prominence for his alleged connection to Diddy, seemingly suffered a medical emergency during a sermon on Sunday morning (November 24). He was addressing the church congregators and the folks at home who were watching him via livestream, quietly wiping sweat off his face, telling his audience he loves them, and speaking on visiting someone at the hospital who motivated their visitor. At one point, Jakes stopped his speech, his arms fell to the side, and he began to shake, which prompted many people to run over and try to help him. The livestream ended shortly after. Hopefully the Potter’s House megachurch senior pastor recovers well and quickly.

Previously, T.D. Jakes made headlines for his remarks after the footage of Diddy assaulting Cassie in a hotel hallway emerged online. “Then, a woman said to me, ‘Would you please pray for women who are living in danger in their own house?’” he said. “And there was something about the way she said it… It was a cry for help. The atrocious, degrading, demeaning, debauchery — I know who it was, but I saw my daughters. As a man, I saw my daughters, and it made me angry… And I thought if it affected me like that as a man, how much more is that image a trigger for women who have been through that, who are currently going through that… And feel trapped in situations where you are being physically and emotionally and verbally abused?”

TD Jakes Seems To Face Medical Emergency

Even though T.D. Jakes completely denied any malicious involvement with Diddy, the Bad Boy mogul continues to find inspiration in his perspective. Both of them are in pretty tough situations right now for wholly different reasons, but we don’t know the extent of their disconnection these days.

“I will not use this sacred day and this sacred pulpit to address a lie when I have the chance to preach the truth,” T.D. Jakes said during his Christmas Eve sermon. These rumors shot Jakes up into the stratosphere of media attention thanks to the Diddy scandal. But sadly, now he has larger issues to deal with that we hope he can recover from.

August 31, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Hip-hop losses another fan-favorite name. According to an update from New York Post, New York City rapper and iconic hype man Fatman Scoop has passed away after suffering a medical emergency onstage. The “Be Faithful” MC was the headlining act at the Green & Gold Party in Hamden, Connecticut. Horror struck about an hour and change into his performance which was scheduled to begin around 7:15 p.m. last night. Scoop was walking around shirtless on the stage and eventually made his way behind the DJ’s booth. Seconds after doing so, the 53-year-old then suddenly fell behind the table and out of view of the spectators. Chest compressions were administered to Fatman Scoop, but sadly to no avail. According to TMZ Hip Hop the crowd quickly became silent and they said that authorities were sent out to help around 8:33 p.m.

After CPR didn’t do the trick, the rapper was carried out on a stretcher to a local hospital. There is currently no word on what caused his death or how long he lasted when he arrived.

“Baddies East”: Smiley Responds To Cast & Fans Over “Fake” Medical Emergency

January 8, 2024 by newhiphopnews

The cast of Baddies East recently went to Jamaica during the reality television show’s latest episode. Moreover, they obviously got into their fair share of fun, club outings, clashes, fights, and other antics that are the lifeblood of the program. However, one particular incident has many fans scratching their heads, whether it’s due to skepticism of to the veracity of it or shock at the idea that people would doubt such a thing. Furthermore, Smiley apparently had a medical emergency after taking three or four shots of alcohol that prompted a seizure and immediate transportation to the hospital for medical attention.

Still, there were a lot of people who doubted that this was real, and who suggested that Smiley faked this reaction. Not only that, but this didn’t only come from fans, but from fellow cast members on Baddies East such as Chrisean Rock’s sister Tesehki. Mariahlynn also said that this was likely an overreaction and that she was making a big fuss about it, and we know that the two don’t have the best of relationships. Overall, it seems like a lot of drama for something that, even if it was fake, should’ve been treated with all the respect and care in the world.

Speaking of which, Smiley took to social media to tearfully react to all these doubts and attacks in a new video. “Y’all don’t know how this s**t feel, bro,” she expressed in a clip that surfaced on TikTok. “Y’all don’t know how I’m feeling, y’all didn’t see how this s**t feel, bro. I don’t even know what was going on. I did not know what the f**k was going on in this f***ing s**t. It was, like, I was so nervous for this s**t to come on. And then I’m seeing all these comments, and I have to sit here and watch this s**t? Bruh, my grandma, everybody is watching this, bruh, this s**t…”

Kourtney Kardashian Divulges On Recent Medical Scare

September 6, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Kourtney Kardashian revealed on Instagram, Wednesday, that she is recovering from urgent fetal surgery. The news comes after Blink-182 announced that they’d be postponing tour shows in Europe due to a family matter. In her post, Kardashian thanked her doctors as well as Travis Barker for rushing to be by her side.

“I will be forever grateful to my incredible doctors for saving our baby’s life,” she began. “I am eternally grateful to my husband who rushed to my side from tour to be with me in the hospital and take care of me afterwards, my rock. And to my mom, thank you for holding my hand through this.”

Kourtney continued: “As someone who has had three really easy pregnancies in the past, I wasn’t prepared for the fear of rushing into urgent fetal surgery. I don’t think anyone who hasn’t been through a similar situation can begin to understand that feeling of fear. I have a whole new understanding and respect for the mamas who have had to fight for their babies while pregnant. Praise be to God. Walking out of the hospital with my baby boy in my tummy and safe was the truest blessing.” Fans shared plenty of supportive messages in the comments section. Check out the full post below.

John Boyega Says Jamie Foxx Is “All Good” Following Health Scare

July 7, 2023 by newhiphopnews

In April, Jamie Foxx was hospitalized following a medical emergency. Since then, updates on the status of his health have been few and far between. Moreover, the updates the public has received have been on the vague side, with various family members and friends of Foxx’s claiming he’s doing fine. Foxx has yet to make a public statement on his own health, and he hasn’t been seen since the reported health scare. Rumors even circulated that suggested Foxx was partially paralyzed, blind, and more. Those rumors were eventually squashed by family members, who claimed they were false. The actor was also reported to have suffered a stroke, which has not been confirmed.

According to one of Foxx’s co-stars of the film They Cloned Tyrone, the actor is doing okay. During a recent interview with ET Canada, John Boyega was asked about the status of Foxx’s health. When the outlet asked him whether or not he’s spoken to Foxx lately, he responded, “He’s all good. He’s all good.” He went on to say, “So we’re just going to wait for him to reappear when he wants to.” Another one of his They Cloned Tyrone co-stars, Teyonah Parris, added “Giving people space to heal how they need to.”

Last month, Nick Cannon filled in for Foxx on Beat Shazam following his hospitalization. When asked during an interview to give a health update on the actor, he said Foxx will address the public himself “when he’s ready.” He went on to describe how much Foxx values his professionalism and privacy.

“He’s handled this situation with the same manner,” Cannon explained, “you only can respect that.” According to reports, Foxx has been undergoing treatment at a physical rehabilitation center in Chicago. Family members say that the actor has been “recovering well.”

MF DOOM’s Wife Left With Medical Questions After Rapper’s Unexpected 2020 Death

July 4, 2023 by newhiphopnews

The three-year anniversary of British-American artist MF DOOM’s death is coming this fall. Thankfully, hip-hop refuses to let his legacy die. Stars like The Weeknd, continue to pay homage to Daniel Dumile in their own performances. Elsewhere, his widow, Jasmin, is doing what she can to seek answers for her husband’s untimely passing. According to Leeds Live, DOOM had been prescribed a new medication to treat his kidney disease and other health concerns. This ultimately led the rapper to struggle with weight gain and anxiety.

Jasmin says that after only two doses, the “Rhymes Like Dimes” artist developed breathing problems that brought him to the local A&E department. At the time, his tongue and throat began to swell. This seems to have tragically played a factor in DOOM’s death. Jasmin has concerns about the treatment her husband received at St. James Hospital, including his “buzzer” being out of reach. Due to this, Dumile was apparently unable to alert medical staff about his deteriorating condition. Instead, he had to phone Jasmin in distress as his swelling became worse.

RIP MF DOOM

When speaking to the Wakefield Coroner’s Court, DOOM’s widow mentioned that his room at the hospital looked as though it may have previously been used for storage. She was unable to see him throughout most of his illness due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but Jasmin still did what she could to help from home. “I was not able to see him until the 31st (of October) – that’s when the respirator was turned off that was helping him breathe,” she emotionally admitted.

Little more than a week before, Dumile had reportedly complained about an inability to breathe. He attempted to get off his bed but ultimately collapsed and suffered a respiratory arrest. In light of the prolific artist’s death, the hospital trust carried out a “serious incident investigation” to pinpoint what lessons could be learned. Since posthumous appearances from MF DOOM are understandably rare, we’ve compiled a list of other rappers with a similar vibe for you to enjoy. Check them out at the link below, and tap back in later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Jamie Foxx’s Mansion Under Construction Amid His Recovery

June 30, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Back in April, Jamie Foxx suffered a still unknown health crisis while filming a movie. Since then updates on the actors condition have come sparingly. The only statement he’s made himself was a brief one back in May. Foxx posted to his Instagram story with a message to his fans that read “Appreciate all the love!!! Feeling blessed.” Representatives for Foxx also had to make a public statement confirming that his medical complication has nothing to do with his Covid vaccinations status.

Now the newest development in Jamie Foxx’s ongoing recovery has to do with construction that’s being done on his mansion. According to Page Six, his 17,000-square foot mansion has been undergoing renovations recently. Pictures they received from his house show a large dumpster filled with construction materials in the mansions back yard. It’s unclear what renovations are being done to the mansion at this time. It’s also unclear whether or not this is where Jamie Foxx has spent much of his recovery time.

Jamie Foxx Health Update

Man of the updates on Foxx’s condition have come from his daughter Corinne. She denied a report that his health had taken a turn for the worse. Instead she said he was recuperating and even added that he had “been out of the hospital for weeks.”

Jamie Foxx’s co-star Porscha Coleman also commented on his wellbeing earlier this week. She said that the actor is “doing well” and that privacy had always been important to him. Fans may never know for sure what exactly happened to Foxx given all the conflicting reports. At the very least he has projects planned and still in production going forward. What do you think about the renovations being made to Jamie Fox’s house during his ongoing recovery? Let us know in the comment section below.

Dionne Warwick Cancels Shows Because Of “Medical Incident”

June 17, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Dionne Warwick has canceled several upcoming performances due to a “medical incident.” Concertgoers will be issued refunds for tickets for shows scheduled June 22-24. The 82-year-old R&B/soul legend is said to be recovering from a “minor medical incident” according to Entertainment Tonight. As such, her planned show at the Rivers Casino Des Plaines near Chicago will not proceed as scheduled. It was supposed to take place next weekend. Future dates in New York and Delaware in July have not yet been fully addressed. ET also said that the legendary artist is “on the mend.”

In recent years, Warwick has experienced a resurgence of interest. This is largely due to her humorous and charming presence on Twitter. Her witty commentary on various topics has endeared her to younger fans. Warwick has shown admiration for Taylor Swift. She has made playful jabs at The Weeknd and Chance The Rapper’s stage names. The legend has also expressed a hilarious lack of familiarity with Billie Eilish. This has led young fans to explore her timeless music. Her catalogue includes Grammy Hall of Fame hits like “Alfie,” “Don’t Make Me Over,” and “Walk On By.”

Dionne Warwick Is The Fun Twitter Auntie We All Need

Dionne Warwick may be a music legend, but she also has a hilariously fierce attitude online. Back when Wendy Williams was still on the air, the legend even called her out by name on Twitter. “A friend alerted me that Wendy Williams was spending a lot of not nice time speaking on me,” Warwick tweeted. “I tuned in to her show to catch the last few minutes of her speaking about me and as in the past, she seems not to be able to speak without maliciously made comments.” Warwick had some advice for Wendy, however: “There’s an old saying you can catch more flies with honey than with vinegar!”

Embracing her reputation as a classic jokester, Warwick has also playfully joked about becoming Twitter’s new CEO. She even followed up on a collaboration with Chance The Rapper. Her Twitter is really a goldmine of hilarity and sass. However, there is one topic she prefers not to address: the recent feud between fellow R&B pioneer Anita Baker and former tour opener Babyface. When asked by Lil Duval to intervene and resolve the conflict, Warwick responded with a dismissive tone. “Baby, that ain’t got nothing to do with me,” she said. Stay tuned to HNHH for the latest updates.
