Lizzo Blasts Fans Who Mocked Her Appearance On Kai Cenat Live Stream

November 26, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Lizzo was one of the countless celebrities who dropped by Kai Cenat’s Mafiathon 2 live stream. The singer accompanied SZA, and the two discussed upcoming material while listening to new music by Kendrick Lamar. Lizzo provided one of the stream’s most viral moments she yelled Kendrick Lamar’s “Mustard!” tag from the song “tv off.” The appearance appeared to go over well, but Lizzo hopped on Instagram Live a few days later to address the stream. Evidently, some of Cenat’s fans made fun of the singer for what was perceived to be “heavy breathing.”

“I know that if it the internet’s good for one thing, it’s for talking cash money sh*t about fat girls,” Lizzo told viewers. She went on a rant about the ways in which fatphobia is rampant online, but then shifted focus back to her Mafiathon 2 appearance. “What I will not allow if for y’all to lie on me. I have seen too many posts about me breathing loud during Mafia,” she explained. “And b*tch, y’all know Kai Cenat is a loud a*s breather.” Lizzo claimed that Cenat was the cause for the breathing, as evidenced by the fact that his mouth wear near his microphone the entire stream.

“That’s the n**ga that was breathing loud,” Lizzo asserted. “How am I the one that’s breathing loud, when the volume of the breathing didn’t change.” The “Truth Hurts” hit maker was annoyed by what fans had to say. She even illustrated the fact that her shoulders didn’t move during the stream. “My shoulders not even moving with the sound of the breathing,” she explained. Lizzo is no stranger to online mockery regarding her size. The singer has had to contend with being the focus of a recent South Park special, and social media trolling courtesy of Antonio Brown.

Lizzo has continued to take things in stride, however. The singer has responded graciously to her South Park skewering and shrugged off AB’s trolling. She has also garnered praise from fans due to her sizable weight loss over the last year. Lizzo posted a photo of herself on Saturday, and the comment section was flooded with praise for her appearance. “You look so good,” one user wrote. “They say if you ain’t got no haters you ain’t popping.”

Antonio Brown Mocks Kim Kardashian For Still Being In Law School

November 26, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Antonio Brown has always got jokes. The former NFL star and social media presence has gotten in hot water for making fun of pretty much everyone. He decided to keep his trolling streak going on November 26, when he targeted Kim Kardashian. While most celebrities have been supportive of Kardashian taking an interest in law, AB decided to target the celebrity’s intelligence with a meme from a classic Adam Sandler movie. No caption needed, the message was loud and clear.

Kim Kardashian posted a photo of herself to Instagram with the caption: “law school.” As we previously noted, the celebrity’s foray into law has been met with praise from fans. But this particular post turned a few heads. Fans were perplexed as to why Kardashian was still in law school. Especially since a standard law degree takes three years. Antonio Brown saw a wide opening with regards to mockery, and he took it. He posted a photo of Adam Sandler from the 1995 cult classic Billy Madison. Sandler’s titular character sits among elementary school students while AB’s caption reads: “Kim Kardashian begins year 7 of law school.”

The plot of Billy Madison sees Sandler’s character attend grades 1-12 in an attempt to inherit his dad’s fortune. Antonio Brown knew exactly what he was doing when he posted the photo, and fans flocked to the comment section with laughing emojis. Kim Kardashian has spoken at length about her aspiration to become a lawyer. She cited her late father, Robert Kardashian, as her biggest career influence. She also admitted that she failed her first year of law school, which has likely contributed to her lengthy degree process.

Kim Kardashian provided an update on her law school progress during a 2023 appearance on Today. “I’m still studying,” she conceded. “I’m actually in constitutional law 1 and 2 right now. Not the biggest fan of it, I’ve been sharing my struggle. But with that said, I took a midterm yesterday. I got 100 percent… That gives me that boost of confidence again just to push through.” Kim Kardashian will not be deterred from achieving her dream, even if people like Antonio Brown are going to clown her for it.

Skilla Baby & Ari Fletcher Address Rampant Cheating Rumors Following Suggestive Video

November 26, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Social media influencer and entrepreneur Ari Fletcher has had her fair share of difficult relationships. Two of her more recent and most notable connections include Chicago rapper G Herbo, and Memphis MC, Moneybagg Yo. The latter is who she’s sort of with right now, as the best way to put their status would be “on and off.” As for the drill mainstay, they have not been together since 2019, but they share a now six-year-old son, Yosohn. Their experience co-parenting has also seen its own deal of ups and downs. We say all of this to say, Fletcher knows what comes with being well-known and how the relationships of this magnitude can be and how they are portrayed.

With that knowledge comes being able to handle the headlines and speculation that can come with it. So, it’s no surprise that Ari is controlling the narrative and setting the record straight, to perfection. Recently, there has been a rampant rumor running around that involves the multi-media savant and up-and-coming Detroit act, Skilla Baby. According to a post from HOLLYWOOD UNLOCKED, a video is the catalyst in this case and it’s been suggesting that he’s been sneaking around with Ari lately.

She didn’t make things look all hunky-dory either, as a lankier man wearing a yellow hoody was walking around behind her. As he was, Ari leaned in the direction of where this mystery man –suspected to be Skilla– was going. She even downplayed the situation by continuing to talk to her fans on social media after that had just happened. However, she’s saying that it wasn’t him in the video and so is the man in question.

Both took the time to address the cheating rumors and did so like adults. Skilla made sure to be on the record saying that G Herbo is one of his boys and that he’d never act out like that. “G Herbo my real big brotha and one of the only rapper friends I have that I value,” he began. “I’m not that type of guy and sis ain’t that type of girl 100% not me in no video with Ari.” She then spoke out saying that it was a close friend who was dealing with a nosebleed at that time. She was also quite shocked that people were assuming it was Skilla in the clip but that she would never fool around like that. She’s also done with the relationship posts claiming, “It’s just better private not even that it’s a secret. It’s just 1,000,000% better this way.”

Wendy Williams Has Become “Permanently Disabled” As Health Worsens

November 26, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Wendy Williams’ guardian, Sabrina Morrissey, has provided an update on the former broadcaster’s health in a new court filing obtained by the New York Post. She revealed Williams “has become cognitively impaired, permanently disabled, and incapacitated” as she continues to battle with dementia. The court filing comes amid Morrissey’s ongoing legal battle with Lifetime. The case centers around the release of the documentary, Where Is Wendy Williams?. She claims the filmmakers took advantage of Williams’ declining mental state.

The filing lists several defendants including A&E Television Networks, Lifetime Entertainment Services, EOne Productions, Creature Films, and the doc’s executive producer Mark Ford. It alleges that the group, “cruelly took advantage of [Williams’] cognitive and physical decline by creating and publishing a documentary at a time when [Williams] was highly vulnerable and clearly incapable of consenting to be filmed.”

Morrissey and her legal team further argue that the defendants “intentionally manipulated and goaded” Williams “to trigger strong emotional reactions and acquire embarrassing footage.” She wants the court to redact aspects of Williams’ “health, familial relationships, and finances” to protect her privacy. On the other side, attorneys for the defense have agreed that Williams gave her “consent, input, and participation” prior to being diagnosed with dementia. Both sides have requested a trial, which is expected to last between two to four weeks.

While Williams’ health began to decline in recent years, a court placed her in a legal guardianship in 2022. The guardianship oversees her health and finances. Her bank, Wells Fargo, had claimed she was “incapacitated” at the time. Williams was first diagnosed with primary aggressive aphasia and frontotemporal dementia back in 2023. The Lifetime documentary, Where Is Wendy Williams?, dropped in February of the following year. Be on the lookout for further updates on Wendy Williams and her health on HotNewHipHop.

“Sacrificing who?” he questioned. “If I’m sacrificing my friends …why my bank account ain’t changed? Where’s the private plane? Where’s the lifestyle? Goofy muthaf*cks.” In response to accusations about him wearing a dress in Abu Dhabi earlier this year, he explained: “That ain’t no dress. It’s called a kandura. That’s what you wear in the Middle East. It’s not a dress. There is no sacrifice. There is no ritual.” Fans flocked to the comments section with support for the singer.

Tyrese Sets The Record Straight

It’s not the only time Tyrese has discussed allegations in recent weeks. He also previously called out Donald Trump supporters for spreading falsehoods about himself and Diddy.

Saweetie Complains About An Ex Cheating On Her, Sparking Theories About Quavo

November 26, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Saweetie recently reflected on a past relationship in which her partner was unfaithful during an appearance on the Call Her Daddy podcast. The comments have fans theorizing that she may have been referring to Quavo, who she dated from 2018 to 2021. While discussing the former relationship, Saweetie detailed how she came to learn the unnamed man was cheating on her.

She began by explaining that her ex once got jealous and angry at her over an innocent conversation she had with somebody else. “So, he starts cussing me out. He was like,’ I would never do this to you!’ He was like, ‘Man, you can go through my phone. My code is dada dada!’ I put the code in my phone. He goes to sleep. So, it’s time to investigate,” she said. From there, she got into the phone and learned he was “playing her” and cheating with multiple women.

Quavo & Saweetie Attend GQ’s “Men Of The Year” Party

When The Shade Room shared the comments on Instagram, fans were highly critical of Saweetie’s ex. “Everyone think cheating is cool but he could’ve brought her something back deadly. Birkins and Bentleys ain’t curing THAT!” one user wrote. Another added: “I felt this whole heartedly. Men really dont understand how cheating affects us mentally & emotionally.” More mentioned Quavo by name.

Saweetie Reflects On Past Relationships

Quavo and Saweetie were first seen together at New York Fashion Week in 2018, sparking dating rumors. They stayed together for several years until 2021 when Saweetie confirmed their breakup on social media. She wrote that she had suffered “too much betrayal and hurt behind the scenes.” Shortly afterward, a video surfaced online showing a physical altercation between the two in an elevator of an apartment complex in North Hollywood, a year prior. In the clip, Saweetie takes a swing at Quavo, who eventually drags her to the ground.

Karlissa Saffold Claims That Blueface Is Home From Prison Already

November 26, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Karlissa Saffold says Blueface is home from prison already? “Yeah aight.” That’s at least what AllHipHop says the mother of the rapper revealed to the world not too long ago. She made the claim during a heated rant/response to his aunt Karletta, who happened to make another shocking revelation. The latter says that Blueface and Chrisean Rock have been married and tied the knot amid his current prison sentence of four years. “The news is — from now on, on behalf of the Harvey family, we would like for y’all to officially put some respect on [Mrs.] Chrisean Malone Porter’s name. She is his wife, it has been confirmed.”

Karletta later added where it all happened, however, she isn’t as confident with that detail. “I’m speculating Vegas — but again, I’m speculating! But I don’t know because in California you don’t have to make your marriage license public.” This set Karlissa off, and as we said, during her dismissal of Karletta’s claims, she let the cat out of the bag. “Now y’all just going to let anybody in the circus. Just ‘cuz Blue home y’all just letting anybody in.”

Blueface Was Claiming That He’d Be Out By July 2025

But her comments weren’t only directed toward her sister. Chrisean Rock also caught some heat for changing her Instagram profile to say “Chrisean Porter.” “You got to stand in front of the pastor. You got to sign them documents,” she said, arguing her son did not tie the knot. “Marriage is not something you just say. Do y’all understand that?”

However, deeper into the video, if she finds out this is indeed true, then she would accept it. “If they married, that’s them. They won and that’s what it is and that’s what you would all have to respect it as.” In an exclusive article from The Shade Room yesterday, Saffold did say she spoke with Blueface’s team and they disproved Karletta’s marriage rumors. As with most things surrounding this group of individuals, things to tend to get messy and misconstrued at times. Maybe Blue and Chrisean are just labeling themselves as a married couple when in reality they never made anything concrete yet. Ultimately, no one will truly believe it until a picture of the ring surfaces.

Halle Bailey & DDG’s Friendly Interaction Sparks Rekindling Rumors

November 25, 2024 by newhiphopnews

DDG has not been hiding his true emotions about Halle Bailey from anyone. Ever since their stunning break up back in early October, he’s continuously made it clear that he misses the actress, singer, and mother of his child, dearly. Days after their split, the Michigan rapper and content creator stated explicitly, “I am not dating anyone. I don’t have a potential girlfriend, nor do I even think about that… [and] don’t plan on getting into another [relationship] at all… I am not finna get a new girlfriend.” Then, on his most recent single, “WHAT U BAD FOR” featuring Real Boston Richey, he double down on staying single.

“Thing about Halo mommy, you know that’s my baby forever / Y’all know that I love that—.” People following this relationship closely have been pretty happy for Halle Bailey moving on from him. However, their month apart could be over thanks to a recent clip circling social media. Live Bitez reshared a video of them looking pretty cute and friendly together and it’s got some thinking they either got back together or never broke up to begin with.

In the video, DDG is showing off some new clothing samples that look to be dropping at some point. While “modeling” the apparel off in front of Halle, she’s extremely complimentary and friendly throughout the interaction. “Oh my God it’s so cute,” she says to DDG. He cracks a smile, and you can tell that things seem to be pretty good between them despite all of the drama.

The internet picked up on it too, and as we said, they are buying that they could be dating again. “They have a child together so it’s not far fetched,” one IG user believes. “They have a child together and they clearly still love each other,” another adds. However, others aren’t as sold, labeling it as just good co-parenting. “They have a kid together guys, they are probably really good friends and want to cultivate a healthy co-parenting relationship and environment for halo,” one surmises. Regardless, it’s good to see Halle and DDG acting this way, especially in front of their baby boy.

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.

Bishop TD Jakes Is Doing Well

A post shared by The Shade Room (@theshaderoom)

“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.

Karlissa Saffold Addresses Blueface’s Aunt’s Rumor That He Married Chrisean Rock

November 25, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Some mini drama is beginning to unfurl within the Blueface and Chrisean Rock camp thanks to a family member. According to The Shade Room the “Thotiana” rapper’s aunt, Karletta, broke some major news regarding the controversial couple’s relationship status. In a recent interview/livestream, Karletta made a very specific request regarding how to address Chrisean Rock going forward. “The news is — from now on, on behalf of the Harvey family, we would like for y’all to officially put some respect on [Mrs.] Chrisean Malone Porter’s name. She is his wife, it has been confirmed.”

This is news to everyone, as Blueface is currently still behind bars for his alleged probation violation. As for Rock, she seems to be going through a bit of renaissance. She’s been steadily improving mentally by developing a relationship with God. Additionally, finally being able to spend time with her son is helping a ton too. Because of their distance, Karletta claiming that they tied the knot recently at some point doesn’t make a whole lot of sense. However, she claims that they managed to say their vows during his current incarceration.

But later into the livestream, Karletta does walk back her bold announcement a bit, saying, “I’m speculating Vegas — but again, I’m speculating! But I don’t know because in California you don’t have to make your marriage license public.” Of course, this bombshell spread like wildfire, and eventually made its way to Blueface’s mother, Karlissa Saffold.

From the sounds of the exclusive piece from The Shade Room, she doesn’t seem so happy about Karletta saying this. Saffold was quick to shut down the claims after attaining confirmation from her son’s representation. They say that Karletta is speaking falsehoods and on top of that, neither Blueface nor Chrisean have spoken about it. Maybe he will pop the big question after a potential early release in July of 2025, but who knows.
