Iggy Azalea’s OnlyFans Earns $307K In 24 Hours: Report

by

After years of posting twerking content online for free, Iggy Azalea has finally taken the advice of some of her fans by joining OnlyFans. The Australian recording artist shared the big news last week. It came along with a spicy video setting the tone for what’s to come.

“SURPRISE! I’m dropping a mixed media project called ‘Hotter Than Hell,’” she wrote to her 16.9M Instagram followers. “There’s photographs, visual art collabs, videos, merch & all kinds of aesthetically pleasing, hot as hell things happening this year. You can get first-look content + updates on my new OnlyFans account.”

In the accompanying visual, Azalea films herself in bed while wearing lingerie. Her flirtatious gaze meets the camera on more than one occasion. At one point, she encourages a young male viewer to chat with her while she’s live. “YOU’RE HOTTER THAN HELL,” he quickly writes back.

The days since have seen the “Fancy” hitmaker sharing more sultry snapshots on IG in hopes of directing people to her OF. From the sounds of things, the promotion is working. DJ Akademiks is claiming that the rapper made upwards of $305K on the content-selling website in just 24 hours.

While some users on the platform charge just a few dollars, Azalea is asking for $25 per month. Of course, she’s amassed no shortage of fans for various reasons throughout her career. It definitely wouldn’t be surprising to see them pay up in exchange for exclusive content.

The mother of one has neither confirmed nor denied the latest rumours herself. However, she has been sharing more teasers on IG. On Sunday (January 15), she dropped off a polaroid that sees her posing in a green string bikini.

Azalea’s curvaceous hips and chest are on full display in the photo. “I heard you were looking for me…” she wrote in the caption, earning nearly 600K likes since it was posted yesterday.

While she’s clearly making money moves on OF, that’s not the only major flex Iggy has under her belt as of late. In late 2022, she sold her portion of her music catalogue in an astounding eight-figure deal.

Wiz Khalifa Slams People Who Quit Smoking Weed & Quickly Call It Life-Changing

by

Wiz Khalifa took issue with people saying that quitting weed has changed their lives in a recent rant on social media. While he admits that quitting can have a positive effect, he doesn’t want to hear it from anyone who hasn’t been clean for at least a decade.

Wiz addressed the issue in a video shared on his Instagram Story, last week.

“Check this out: if you smoked weed for the majority of your life and you just stopped smoking weed, don’t try to convince everybody that your life has changed so much just ‘cause you quit smoking weed, dog,” Wiz began.

“That shit – it don’t happen that fast,” he added. “Tap in about 15 years when the effects really kick in. A year, a couple days, a few months… That ain’t long enough to see no progress, fam. Straight up.”

He continued: “And if you wasn’t getting shit done off of weed, it’s probably just ‘cause you don’t know how to get shit done. Some people eat too much and they get fat. You gotta know how to moderate that shit. So if you been smoking 10-15 years, tap in 15 years later if you not smoking weed and then make a fucking video.”

While he’s not quitting weed anytime soon, Wiz did recently share a track titled “NeverDrinkingAgain.” Posting the song on social media at the end of 2022, Wiz wrote: “Just in time for New Years. Enjoy your festivities drink responsibly and tag me when you use this sound in your video the day after #neverdrinkingagain.”

His talent manager also announced the death on his official Facebook page for Brown.

“I am sad to let you know that angels came for Al yesterday morning, Friday, January 13, 2023,” the Facebook statement said. “May his memory be a blessing to his family, his friends, and each of you. This page will remain as a testimony to Al’s work and love for his fans.”

The Wire aired from June 2, 2002, through March 9, 2008, comprising of five seasons. It is widely considered one of the best television series of all time. While Brown was a recurring character throughout the show, he had the most screen time in Season 2 while dealing with the dock workers and The Greek. In total, he appeared 20 of the show’s 60 episodes.

In addition to his acclaimed work on The Wire, Brown also made appearances on Rescue Me, Forensic Files, Law & Order: SVU, Commander in Chief, and The Hustler. On the big screen, Brown worked on The Replacements, 12 Monkeys, Lay the Favorite, Red Dragon, and Liberty Heights.

While he’s renowned for his work in the entertainment industry, Brown also served two tours in Vietnam.

Neither Brown’s daughter nor his talent manager has announced any memorial plans.

D.L. Hughley Says Dwayne Wade & Gabrielle Union Shouldn’t Be Surprised By Reactions To Zaya Wade

by

D.L. Hughley recently sat down for a lengthy interview with none other than DJ Vlad.

In typical VLADTV fashion, the 59-year-old certainly ends up opening up about a number of controversial topics.

“I think two things can exist; I think that I can respect the love and protection that they feel [as parents]. I think loving your child without recriminations is required of us. It’s also disingenuous to believe that people aren’t gonna have an opinion to that. If you make these things public, people there are people [who are] gonna have public assessments of it, so I can’t fault you for loving your child and protecting them and being proud of them, and equally, I can’t fault people for having an opinion” says the actor in a clip of their talk.

“Listen, to me, you’re not grown until you leave my house. If you’re still going to a pediatrician, if you need my permission to go to a movie, then I’m going to have a say in what happens. If you believe that isn’t how you want to run your family, I have no choice but to respect that,” he continues afterwards.

Of course, this all stems from Gabrielle Union coming to the defense of her stepdaughter, Zaya Wade. In 2020, the 15-year-old publicly came out as transgender.

In a resurfacing clip of an interview that the actress did with Jemele Hill, she calls out Boosie Badazz for continuously speaking on Zaya. “He’s so pre-occupied. It’s almost like, thou doth protest too much, Little Boos. You got a lot of d*ck on your mind,” says the She’s All That actress.

In response, the “Set It Off” rapper took to his Twitter account. “LOL!! THE WHOLE WORLD KNOW I LOVE WOMEN N THE WORLD KNOW YOUR HUSBAND LOVE D*CK!! I HOPE U DONT THINK BLACKS LOOK AT YALL LIKE A POWER COUPLE THEY DONT!! I HAD REFUSED TO TALK ABOUT YALL IN INTERVIEWS N HEAR YOU GO!!” he explicitly writes in a tweet from December.

Pete Davidson & Chase Sui Spend More Time Together After Denying Romance

by

Pete Davidson’s love affairs with Kim Kardashian and Emily Ratajkowski were obviously left in 2022. Still, it seems the comedian is carrying one of his previous flings into the new year. In the last few weeks of the year, the Saturday Night Live alum was seen with Chase Sui Wonders. However, they denied any romantic involvement at the time.

After attending a hockey game together following his split from the High Low podcast host, Davidson and his Bodies Bodies Bodies costar hit the town together once again this weekend.

According to Page Six, on Friday (January 13) they went out in New York City. Paparazzi caught photos of them parking an SUV on a side street. Both of them wore layers to keep warm from the winter air.

For her part, the 26-year-old went bold with animal print pants and a unique scarf. Her date, on the other hand, opted to blend in with his surroundings by wearing neutrals.

It remains unclear where the rest of the evening took them. We do know they were eating at Baba’s Pierogies in Brooklyn just last week. Customers in the shop at the time reportedly saw Wonders wrap her arms around Davidson. Other sources additionally claim to have seen the pair exchanging a few kisses.

Of course, The King of Staten Island star has established himself as something of a ladies’ man in Hollywood. Prior to Ratajkowski and Kardashian, he was engaged to Ariana Grande and has also dated Margaret Qualley, Kaia Gerber, and Cazzie David, just to name a few.

He’s still in his late 20s and doesn’t seem desperate to settle down anytime soon. However, Davidson made it known this past summer that having kids one day is a “dream” of his.

“[I’m] definitely a family guy,” he told Kevin Hart at the time. “My favourite thing ever – which I’ve yet to achieve – is I want to have a kid. That’s like my dream.”

Kendall Jenner Slammed For Making Assistant Hold Umbrella In Rainstorm

by

You know what they say – when it rains, it pours. Luckily for Kendall Jenner, she can afford an assistant to trail behind her, holding an umbrella over her head so she can stay dry and maintain use of both hands.

Unsurprisingly, the reality star is getting hate for her latest antics online. As The Sun reports, photos of a miserable-looking male dressed in all-black have been circulating online as he follows the model through the California downpour to her destination.

Snapped on Saturday (January 14), the photos see Jenner dressed down in black leggings and a blue hoodie. White crew socks and a pair of tan ankle-heigh Ugg boots keep her feet warm. Even with the rain pouring, she was able to wear her hood down and keep her long black hair dry. Her staff member, on the other hand, wasn’t so lucky.

As The Sun reports, social media users have been quick to share their thoughts on the paparazzi photos. “I don’t care how rich I am but I would feel so bad letting someone hold my umbrella for me while they are getting soaked,” one user wrote on a Kardashian forum.

“Agreed! Plus it would be a bit awkward? You would stay [drier] just holding it yourself…” another pointed out. Later, someone else chimed in with, “Yes! I was just thinking how I couldn’t allow someone to hold an umbrella for me because I’m too lazy to hold it myself.”

While she’s facing hate for Saturday’s outing, Jenner certainly made a splash while attending Lori Harvey’s 26th birthday party earlier this weekend.

For her part, the 818 founder donned a sultry sheer black dress with no bra for the function at Lavo in West Hollywood. Other famous faces in attendance include Tyler, The Creator and Justine Skye.

Additionally, Damson Idris and the b-day girl made their official debut as a couple at the party. Read more about that here, and check back with HNHH later for more pop culture news updates.

Ever since, we have gradually been receiving updates on his condition as they become available. On January 7, screenshots of him on FaceTime with Meek Mill and Michael Rubin began showing him in good spirits while still in the hospital.

Last Monday (January 9), reports began circulating that Hamlin was being released. “UC Health Center physicians announce that #Bills S Damar Hamlin has been released from the hospital and is back in Buffalo. WOW,” writes NFL insider Ian Rapoport in a tweet.

On Saturday (January 14), one of his teammates, Linebacker Matthew Milano, took to his Instagram account to share a photo of their first reunion with Hamlin. The visit reportedly took place at the Bills’ Orchard Park practice facility in Buffalo.

The following day, Hamlin took to his Twitter account to voice his support for his teammates. “My heart is with my guys as they compete today! Supporting from home as I focus on my recovery. Nothing I want more than to be out there with them! LFG #BillsMafia,” reads his tweet.

Of course, the Bills are facing off against the Miami Dolphins in an AFC wild card game today. The match started at 1:00PM EST.

It’s certainly great to see how incredible Damar Hamlin’s recovery has been. Finally, make sure you stay tuned to HNHH for all of the latest updates and stories.

Drake Joins Tristan Thompson & The Kardashians In Toronto For NBA Star’s Mom’s Funeral

by

2023 is beginning on a sombre note for Tristan Thompson. Just a few days into January, the Canadian athlete’s mother, Andrea, went into cardiac arrest in Toronto. She was rushed to the hospital, but doctors ultimately failed to revive her.

Her son flew back to his hometown as soon as possible with co-parent Khloé Kardashian joining him. Their second child together recently came via surrogate, though TMZ notes that they’re not romantic with each other at this time. Rather, the reality starlet has been acting as a support system for her ex.

Photos of Thompson and his baby mama heading to the 6ix made rounds on January 6, but since then, it’s been relatively quiet on their front. Likely due to mourning, as well as planning this weekend’s star-studded funeral.

On Saturday (January 14), several celebrity friends flocked to Toronto to support the NBA player in his time of need. Paparazzi photos show Tristan in his all-black funeral attire outside, many of his loved ones – including Drake – surrounding him.

The two Canadians have developed a special bond over the years, with Thompson appearing in one of Drizzy’s Honestly, Nevermind music videos last summer.

For his part, Champagne Papi also donned a black outfit, seemingly layering up to beat the cool winter weather. Kim Kardashian was also in attendance, alongside her little sister Khloé, and a figure who’s believed to be Kylie Jenner.

TMZ notes that family matriarch Kris Jenner came to the funeral as well, though she wasn’t seen in the snapshots. In the wake of Andrea’s passing, the KUWTK alum posted a sincere tribute to her fellow grandparent on Instagram.

“You were the most amazing, dedicated, devoted, and selfless mom and such a loving, kind, and fabulous grandmother,” the famous momager wrote in her caption.

“What a blessing you were to your family!!! I will miss you Andrea. I will miss your bright spirit and amazing light. Thank you for always praying for us and lifting us up and encouraging us along the way. Rest in peace beautiful angel.”

Ally Lotti Released From Jail, Juice Wrld’s Ex Paid $2.5K Bond For Possession & Theft

by

On Saturday (January 14) evening, circulating reports stated that Juice Wrld’s ex, Ally Lotti, was arrested. Thanks to mugshots, the world has confirmation of these allegations. More details have been coming out in the hours since.

As HipHopDX reports, the 29-year-old caught police’s attention early on Saturday morning. Her charges include possession of methamphetamine or cocaine with the purpose to deliver, as well as possession of drug paraphernalia and theft of property.

Records show that Lotti’s jail was the Crittenden County Detention Centre in Memphis, Tennessee. Most of her day was spent behind bars, but at 8:45 PM posting a $2,525 bond sent her home.

The Instagram influencer – born Alicia L. Leon – didn’t act alone. A young man named Carter Jamison was arrested alongside her. According to DJ Akademiks, he’s her current romantic partner and received his own charges for theft of property. Unlike his girlfriend, though, he didn’t have to make bond and was free by Saturday morning.

Before landing in this situation, Lotti’s relationship with the late Juice Wrld led her to skyrocket to fame. The two spent approximately 12 months together prior to his passing at Chicago’s Midway International Airport in December 2019.

At the time, the “Lucid Dreams” hitmaker suffered a seizure following a private flight from California. His ultimate cause of death was an accidental overdose of oxycodone and codeine.

Since then, though, Lotti has come forward alleging that the reports are inaccurate. “There’s a lot of shit y’all don’t know that I f*cking grieved through myself while I let y’all grieve and talk mad shit on me. I don’t care,” she previously ranted on social media.

The model’s social media channels remain quiet following her release from jail. Check back later for any updates on Ally Lotti’s arrest, or your favourite celebrities.

Blueface & DJ Akademiks Trade Shots On Twitter

by

Blueface and DJ Akademiks just started some beef over Twitter, and a lot’s been said in a couple of days. Moreover, they sent shots back and forth at each other about their careers and exploits in music. Also, Blueface has been making rounds for his reality show Crazy In Love with his girlfriend Chrisean Rock. However, Ak brought music into the conversation and they fought over their careers.

It all started on Thursday (January 12) when the L.A. MC tweeted “I got way more money then ak why he playing like this.” Furthermore, just a few days prior, the former Complex host tweeted a viral video from Blueface’s show where his girlfriend struck him in the head. However, he later clarified he doesn’t actually have beef with Akademiks.

“I got no beef with ak guys I just use him for promo at this point if he tell y’all what I got going on I don’t have to say much just respond to him every once Ina while an he gone do his job for me for free…W promo,” he tweeted.

When Akademiks clapped back, he said he still supports Blueface. Still, he did tell the rapper to focus more on his music career instead of his other entertainment ventures.

“I fw and love Blueface,” the 31-year-old wrote. While he had his criticisms, he cited good intentions. “I want him not to be in abusive relationship and I don’t want his career and reputation ruined. I want him back focused on rap.”

Even though Ak’s message wasn’t entirely negative, Blueface quickly turned around and heated things up.

“Im the EP of my docu-series,” the “Bleed Em” star wrote. “Ak I’m bigger then rap I’m past rap stop tryna keep me Ina box cuz yo rap career ain’t take off.

“I son ak an let him know he a pawn on my chest board,” he continued. “Now it’s fake care an love I’m to good at the mind games, thin line between love an hate.”

Afterwards, it seems the media personality took that “son” jab seriously. Moreover, he called Blueface his son in his clapback. Also, he clowned the rapper’s head tattoos.

“Please y’all go watch my SON Blueface get knocked out on camera by his girl on her reality show… so that he can get a lil paycheck to pay his mortgage and finance that cheap ass C8. We don’t want him getting no more tattoos of JEWELERS on the side of his head,” he replied.

Then on Saturday (January 14), Blueface took aim at Ak’s music career, comparing their Spotify monthly listeners. Moreover, he made it clear that he doesn’t take his advice seriously.

“Ak please stop talking about people music career,” he asked. “Clearly you don’t have the answers you failed at rap.”

However, the most recent chapter in this saga came swiftly after, with DJ Akademiks reaffirming his support and expressed his disappointment.

“Good morning Blue. Lol just do better bruh. That’s all. I’m rooting for you,” Ak expressed. “U better than being a stand in stunt double for domestic abuse on a reality show on Zeus. Sorry if I want better for u than u want ur self. That $4.99 subscription shouldn’t have u compromising character.”

What do you think of this spout of beef between Blueface and DJ Akademiks? Moreover, where do you think it will go from here? Whatever the case, let us know in the comments down below. Also, as always, check back in with HNHH for more updates on this story.
