Nick Cannon Visits Children’s Hospital As Santa, Dedicates Trip To Late Son

by

Nick Cannon swung by a California children’s hospital to bring some Christmas cheer to the kids spending the holidays away from home. The multi-hyphenate performer dressed as Santa and distributed presents across the wards. Furthermore, he dedicated the visit to his late son Zen, who passed away from cancer two years ago. “Zens’s Light shinning bright for the holidays!! Thank you to the Children’s Hospital of Orange County and everyone who made the day so loving, warm and memorable.🙏🏾❤,” Cannon wrote on Instagram.

Of course, it’s not been a wholly joyful Christmas for Cannon. Cannon was seemingly absent from Brittany Bell’s Christmas card photos. All of her children with Cannon were present, but not Cannon himself. However, on Cannon’s Instagram, it’s clear that he was present at the photo shoot. It’s unclear why Bell excluded Cannon from the shoot. However, it sparked rumors that the pair are currently beefing. However, many people were supportive of Bell’s decision. “I love how it’s always just her and the kids,” one commenter wrote on social media.

Nick Cannon And Mariah Carey’s Son Makes Music Debut

Meanwhile, 12-year-old Moroccan Scott, the son of Mariah Carey & Cannon, made his live rap debut earlier in the month. Moroccan appeared on stage in Kansas City alongside his mother on her “Merry Christmas One And All” Tour. Moroccan dropped some solid bars as his mom nodded along approvingly beside him. With Carey as his mom and Cannon as his dad, it makes sense that Moroccan would have inherited some musical talent.

Of course, as November became December, it was Carey’s time to shine. Many memes have been made about how she has unthawed and is preparing to bombard the world with “All I Want For Christmas”. Carey and Cannon have another child, Monroe, who is Moroccan’s twin. It appears that Cannon has made sure to try and get some time with all his children during the festive period.

Chrisean Rock Gets Drunk And Throws Chairs During Pre-Christmas Rant: Watch

by

Chrisean Rock declared that it “isn’t Christmas” for her because she’s not spending the holidays with her “real family” this year. The rapper was seen ranting in her home with a bottle of Hennessey as she went live on Instagram. “I know nobody got me a gift,” Rock lamented. “I really feel like there’s no Christmas,” she continued sadly. Elsewhere in the stream, Rock was seen throwing a chair across the room and stripping off her jacket to continue ranting in just her sports bra and sweats. Throughout the video, someone that Rock appears to identify as her nephew can be seen coming into view and teasing Rock.

However, people online were not very sympathetic towards Rock. “Y’all I’m headed to 2024 😂 please don’t bring this kinda nonsense in our new year 🥴,” one person said. “Remember? Doing it now 🤦🏽‍♀️throwing chairs in the house. They act like bad kids who mom ain’t home,” added another. “Put a tree up ! Put the Drank down & make memories for the kids .. & stop being destructive and toxic🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹,” warned a third.

Blueface & Chrisean Rock Still Beefing

Of course, this new rant comes amid a renewed wave of beef between Rock and her baby daddy, Blueface. Both parties have given differing accounts of a recent visit that Rock paid to Blue’s home. Rock later took to Instagram Live to claim that Blue had physically assaulted her. Specifically, she claimed that he had punched her while she was holding Chrisean Jr in his home. Blue has denied the allegations, claiming that Rock arrived at his home unannounced and uninvited and that she never came inside.

The allegations come a few days after Blue declared that fighting people makes him “horny”. The bizarre confession came after Soulja Boy unsurprisingly no-showed for the physical fight that Blue had challenged him to. Furthermore, news emerged that Blue had then pulled up on Rock with the intention of fighting her brother.

Nicki Minaj Addresses Tory Lanez & Iggy Azalea Bar, Ranks Her Own Albums

by

Nicki Minaj recently sat down for a very enlightening interview with Joe Budden, one that finally cleared up one of her new album Pink Friday 2‘s most memorable lyrics. “Stay in your Tory lane, b***h, I’m not Iggy,” she rapped on the cut “FTCU,” a pointed reference to both artists’ working relationship, collaborative history, the letter that Azalea wrote in support of Lanez, and possibly a Megan Thee Stallion diss. Given how much this bar stood out, we’re not surprised that the Slaughterhouse MC wanted to dive deeper in. When Joe asked, the Trinidadian rapper turned the question on him to see if his interpretation is on the right track.

“Well, it could be shade to a few people,” Joe Budden began. “Without saying if you think the shade is in mind, what do you think the line itself means?” Nicki Minaj clapped back. “‘I’m not one of them,’ that’s what I think it means,” he replied. “And I think it was a clever way to say that.” “Yeah! Thank you,” she responded, although she seemed comically taken aback by his laughter right after. “I really appreciate me getting a compliment from Mr. Buddens! I’m taking it.” “I liked your last album!” Joe hilariously defended, to which Nicki said that even she doesn’t like that album.

Elsewhere, she also spoke a little bit more on Queen indirectly via social media on Friday (December 22). Moreover, Nicki Minaj provided her “honest ranking” of all her albums on Twitter, which may surprise folks. “Ok here’s my honest ranking,” she began. “1. Pink Friday 2. 2. The Pinkprint. 3. QUEEN. 4. Pink Friday. 5. Pink Friday Roman Reloaded (The Re-Up). But I truly respect all gag city resident opinions. What the albums mean to you is your own truth based on where you were in your own life.” Considering that the 41-year-old apparently doesn’t even like Queen, this insinuation that she doesn’t like Pink Friday might be the reason she wanted to make whatever she wanted to make on its sequel.

Nicki Minaj Ranks Her Albums

Meanwhile, these comments on the Tory and Iggy bar are interesting considering other comments during this interview on her appreciation for female rappers. Surely the coming days and weeks will bring us more revelations and statements in this vein from someone so connected to their fanbase. We can’t wait to see how the new year shapes up for the Queen. For more news and the latest updates on Nicki Minaj, come back to HNHH.

Lil Uzi Vert Reiterates Musical Retirement, Announces Pivot To Fashion Design

by

Lil Uzi Vert has reiterated their plan to retire from music after Luv Is Rage 3. Speaking with TMZ, Uzi said that they still love making music but have lost their love for the craft itself. However, Uzi did not that their retirement would not be official until they released Luv Is Rage 3 and filmed a video for “Everybody”, their collab with Nicki Minaj on Pink Friday 2.

Furthermore, Uzi revealed that they plan to pivot from music to fashion design, speaking excitedly about their grand plans for a women’s clothing line. While Uzi didn’t reveal too much, they did note that construction is underway for the clothing company’s office.

Lil Uzi Vert’s Team Eager To Stop Retirement

However, Uzi’s team is very keen for the rapper not to retire. Their original retirement announcement was met with fierce opposition from their own camp. “Uzi, please don’t retire! Love, your Generation Now family. Love, your Diop Agency family,” read a billboard in Philadelphia’s Fashion District. Despite this, Uzi has had their heart set on retirement for most of this year. “No, relax. It’s okay. After Luv Is Rage 3, I guess I will go on another tour for Luv Is Rage 3. But after that, I wanna try to live a normal life,” Uzi told a concert in Chicago in November.

Meanwhile, Uzi has been leaving music in style. At a November show, they embraced their inner Rod Wave, jumping off a balcony into the crowd below. Uzi had been standing on the ledge in front of the VIP section, getting the crowd hyped. A couple of times, they leaned back and let the VIPs keep them upright. Then, Uzi carefully hopped over the balcony and jumped about five or six feet into the section below, briefly disappearing before bouncing back up and presumably heading for the stage. Of course, Wave has gotten a fair amount of backlash for the stunt. Many fans have accused him of “glorifying suicide” through it. However, Wave’s continued performance of the balcony jump shows how he feels about that line of thinking.

Deontay Wilder Stunned By Joseph Parker In Historic Upset

by

Deontay Wilder lost his heavyweight bout against Joseph Parker in a stunning upset that sent shockwaves across the boxing world. Wilder was thoroughly outclassed in the unanimous decision defeat and was humble enough to admit it after the fight. “He did a great job avoiding a lot of my punches. We make no excuses tonight. It was a good fight, and we move on to the next thing,” Wilder said. Despite having fought just one round since November 2021, Wilder was still the -700 favorite entering the bout. However, Parker never gave the Bronze Bomber a chance to properly uncork his signature right hook.

“Coming into this fight, everyone had other plans, but this is God’s plan. Today, what a win. Merry Christmas to us,” Parker said after the fight. The win marked Parker’s fourth of the year and saw him add the WBC International Heavyweight belt to his growing list of titles. It’s unclear what Parker’s next move will be. However, he was sure of one thing after the fight. “I’m back,” he declared.

Deontay Wilder Loss Jeopardizes Anthony Joshua Fight

However, Wilder’s loss is so much bigger than just the American boxer. He entered the fight with Parker with a deal in place to fight Anthony Joshua next March if both men won. Joshua did his part later in the night, pummelling Otto Wallin so badly that Wallin’s corner threw in the towel after five rounds. With Wilder’s loss, it has led to Joshua already eyeing new options.

After the fight, Joshua said he was still open to a fight with Wilder. However, promoter Eddie Hearn quickly pivoted the conversation to a different fight instead. With a belt likely to become vacant due to the Fury-Usyk fight, Hearn has already begun hyping a title bout between Joshua and Filip Hrgović, the 2016 Olympic bronze medalist. Despite this, Joshua still expressed hope that Wilder could eventually rebound into being title-contention caliber again. “You can do anything, and if [Wilder] wants to come back he can do it,” Joshua noted.

FKA Twigs’ End-Of-Year Photo Dump Earns Backlash From Swifties

by

Swifties have gone after FKA Twigs over a perceived slight from the British artist’s end-of-year photo dump. One particular moment saw Twigs and her friends lying in bed as an overheard camera panned across them. However, Swifties have interpreted this as a recreation of Kanye West’s music video for “Famous”. In the video, Kanye is famously seen in a similar panning shot beside a naked Taylor Swift. While Twigs did feature alongside Kanye on Ty Dolla $ign’s “Ego Death”, there is no indication that her recent video was anything but coincidentally similar.

Regardless, the respective fan bases of Swift and Twigs are now waging way across social media. The Swifties have accused Twigs of taking unprovoked shots at Swift. Meanwhile, Twigs’ fans are arguing that the Swifties are overly sensitive and have decided to start beef where there isn’t any. At the time of writing, neither artist has addressed the situation.

Patrick Mahomes Speaks On Taylor Swift

There has been a lot of praise floating around for Swift in recent days. Nicki Minaj said she would work with her “in a heartbeat”. Meanwhile, Patrick Mahomes showed his teammate’s girlfriend a lot of love during a recent interview. The Chiefs QB called Swift “top tier” and said that Swift had quickly become part of the team after she began dating Travis Kelce. Furthermore, Mahomes said he’s enjoying seeing Swift bond with his wife Brittany. Swift and Kelce recently engaged in some pre-birthday shenanigans with the Mahomes. She and Kelce recently partied until 2am with the Mahomeses to celebrate Swift’s birthday early.

Last weekend, Swift was spotted getting a little foul-mouthed with the refs during the Chiefs’ game against the Patriots. The Chiefs ended a two-game skid with a 27-17 win over the hapless Patriots. However, there were so close calls and tight moments, leading to Swift’s animated reactions. Kansas City are next in action on Christmas Day when they host the Raiders. The Chiefs are 9-5 and have a two-game lead over the surging Denver Broncos, who are 7-7. The Chiefs have three games left on their schedule before the playoffs roll around.
