by

Kim Kardashian is opening up about life post divorce from Kanye West. The mom of four recently caught up with Gwyneth Paltrow on the actress’ GOOP podcast. She dished on her marriage and divorce from the Yeezy star. 

“I feel honestly my last marriage was my first real,” Kim shared. “The first one, I just don’t know what was happening. “The second one, I wanted to be married so badly. All my friends were at that place and that’s where I should have been. And I didn’t accept that that just wasn’t where I was and realized that that was ok.”

Kim previously married music producer Damon Thomas from 2000 to 2003. In 2011, she married NFL star Kris Humphries, before splitting after just 72 days. As for her marriage to Kanye, Kim filed for divorce from the star after 7 years of marriage. 

She recently opened up about co-parenting with her controversial ex in an interview on Angie Martinez’ IRL Podcast. “I had the best dad and I had the best memories and the greatest experience and that’s all I want for my kids. As long as they can have that, that’s what I would want for them, you know.”

Kim and Kanye share four children together — all under 10 years old. The SKIMS founder says she’ll share more about her relationship with Ye when their kids are old enough to understand. “When they are we will have those conversations. I’ll be so prepared but until then I will do anything to keep their life as normal as possible.” 

Kim also says she’s still open to marriage and kids. “I have this fantasy in my head, like, ‘Fourth time’s a charm — it’s gonna work out.”

Roddy Ricch Goes Off On Paparazzi

by

2022 has been a rather redeeming year for Roddy Ricch. After last year’s LIVE LIFE FAST didn’t exactly live up to expectations, he took a brief break from dropping music.

Additionally, the world was witness to him deleting his Twitter account following a snippet receiving widespread criticism earlier this year. On Thursday (December 29), however, the Compton native made headlines for getting into a heated exchange with some paparazzi.

The incident occurred while the “Down Below” rapper was out in L.A., appearing to be loading a baby seat into the trunk of his car. After his security guard warns the paparazzi to back up, he proceeds to cross the street. Roddy doesn’t hesitate to flash him the finger as he’s doing so. After all, he does continue to film the 24-year-old, who evidently isn’t happy upon realizing this. The Compton native subsequently decides to approach the cameraman.

He repeatedly tells the paparazzi to turn his camera off and stop recording. “Turn that off, ’cause I wanna talk to you like a man,” he pleads.

“You was the first dude that walked up on me. You walked up on me, bro. Don’t walk up on me. This is real life, don’t walk up on me. I’m handling my personal business, you walking up on me. This ain’t that bro, I’m living real life,” Roddy states. He ends by telling the cameraman, “Leave me the f*ck alone.”

After a string of impressive mixtapes, including his Feed Tha Streets series, the Compton native dropped his debut album Please Excuse Me for Being Antisocial in December 2019. Of course, this was backed by his biggest single to date in the megahit, “The Box.”

Last month, he returned to drop off the third instalment of his infamous series, Feed Tha Streets III. Although it does follow a similar formula to past Roddy projects, as a whole, it showcases his confidence and effortlessly melodic flow.

Megan Fox Seeks Girlfriend, Machine Gun Kelly Reacts

by

Megan Fox is undeniably in love with Machine Gun Kelly – or that’s what their frequent PDA tells us, anyway. However, the actress has been making headlines after publicly searching for a new suitor on social media.

It seems that the 36-year-old is on the hunt for someone very different from her current beau. In fact, she’s actually ready to give the same sex a spin, just like her famous character in Jennifer’s Body. “Currently seeking a girlfriend,” she wrote in the caption of a selfie posted earlier this week.

“Please submit applications in the DMs,” she encouraged any interested followers. In the accompanying photos, Fox pouts in the front passenger seat of the car. She wears a fuzzy purple bucket hat and a thin-strapped halter top that puts plenty of emphasis on her cleavage.

She also included a live photo-turned-video in which she strikes various poses for the camera. Afterward, we get a smiling shot that finds the Transformers starlet showing off her pearly whites and plump peach lips.

Various famous faces came by the comment section to say hello. Among them were TikTok pop culture guru @hellotefi and former lead on The Bachelorette, Kaitlyn Bristowe.

While many were finding for Fox’s attention beneath her thirst traps, her fiancé was quick to burst her bubble. “I don’t think you have the filing capacity for this request,” he wrote on Friday (December 30).

As PEOPLE reports, the mother of three has previously spoken about her own sexual preferences. “I think people are born bisexual and they make subconscious choices based on the pressures of society,” she said back in 2009. “I have no question in my mind about being bisexual.”

Elsewhere on her feed this month, Fox shared the exciting news that she and 365 Days actor Michele Morrone will be appearing alongside each other in the upcoming Subservience film. The sci-fi thriller is “about a struggling father (Morrone) who purchases a domestic SIM (Fox) to help care for his house and family until she gains awareness and turns deadly.”

Plastic Surgeon In 50 Cent Penis Enhancement Case Says He Should Be Suing The Shade Room Instead

by

The legal battle between 50 Cent and Medical Spa owner Angela Kogan is still heating up. The Queens native continues to deny receiving a penis enhancement.

A new update in the case indicates that part of the surgeon’s defence states that 50 should really be suing The Shade Room.

This all began when the “In Da Club” rapper sued Kogan back in September. The 47-year-old claims that the owner of Medical Spa made false claims about him receiving a penis enlargement procedure.

Furthermore, Kogan claims that the Power producer posed for a photo with her in exchange for services at the spa. However, 50 alleges that this doesn’t include anything to do with penis enlargement. He’s suing her for invasion of privacy, false endorsement, unauthorized misappropriation, false advertising, conversion and unjust enrichment.

In November, he even took to his Instagram account to maintain his side of the story. “yeah my d_ck is a BIG DEAL set for trial in july no enhancement necessary, these fools put them selves out of business,” he writes in the caption.

Evidently, neither Fif or Kogan are backing down. In October, she requested that the case be dismissed. Now, the business owner is saying the 47-year-old shouldn’t even be suing her in the first place.

According to documents obtained by AllHipHop, however, Kogan’s attorneys submitted the affirmative defenses on Thursday (December 30). They argue that the “In Da Club” rapper should be going after The Shade Room instead. The website allegedly posted the photo of Kogan and Fif together, accompanied by an article about penis enlargement surgery.

“The Shade Room is the author of the Article, and pulled the Photo from Kogan’s social media without Kogan’s permission or consent. The Shade Room is the publisher of the Article, and Plaintiff has improperly applied the actions of The Shade Room to Defendant,” says the surgeon’s lawyers in a statement.

If a settlement isn’t reached, the case is still set to head to trial in July 2023.

Doja Cat Receives Death Threat After Tinychat Bullying Accusations: Report

by

One thing that seemingly always lands Doja Cat in a pot of boiling hot water, is spending time in online chat rooms. A few years ago she faced severe backlash for allegedly engaging in alt-right and racist activities across these internet hangouts. However, she vehemently denied those claims at the time.

“I want to address what’s been happening on Twitter. I’ve used public chat rooms to socialize since I was a child. I shouldn’t have been on some of those chat room sites. I personally have never been involved in any racist conversations. I’m sorry to everyone that I offended,” the Planet Her hitmaker wrote.

Additionally, she added, “I’m a Black woman. Half of my family is black from South Africa. I’m very proud of where I come from… I understand my influence and impact and I’m taking this all very seriously. I love you all and I’m sorry for upsetting or hurting any of you. That’s not my character, and I’m determined to show that to everybody moving forward. Thank you.”

While much of 2022 found her focusing on her eyebrows and bold fashion statements, it seems Doja is closing out the year by spending time on Tinychat. As HipHopDX reports, footage of the performer surfaced online earlier this week. It came from an unverified participant who later shared it on social media.

“Not only has Doja Cat been going into this chat room, this is her right here. The owner gave her admin. She bans, kicks and bullies the shit out of me in the chat,” they explained to readers.

Aside from accusations of bullying, it seems her time on Tinychat also led the California native to receive a death threat. While it remains unclear if the person who posted the clip and who allegedly verbally attacked her are the same, they were both seemingly mad about DC kicking them out of the space.

TMZ reports that Doja gave the man the boot when he began acting weird. He somehow entered again, and at this point, reportedly threatened to kill her and said he would “see her soon.” Afterward, the singer called the cops, who promptly took a report for a criminal threat.

Oprah Winfrey & More Mourn Barbara Walters Passing

by

Barbara Walters’ peers are flooding social media with fond memories of the beloved journalist. Everyone from Oprah Winfrey to Star Jones is speaking light about the passing of Walters — who passed away Friday at age 93. 

Oprah has always been vocal about her respect for Walters. The Queen of media took to Instagram to share her condolences regarding the late broadcaster’s death. “Without Barbara Walters there wouldn’t have been me,” Winfrey began. “Nor any other woman you see on evening, morning, and daily news. She was indeed a Trailblazer. I did my very first television audition with her in mind the whole time. Grateful to have known her.”

Walters’ former “The View” cohost Star Jones also penned a heartfelt note following the news of her passing. “I owe Barbara Walters more than I could ever repay. Rest well sister…mother…friend…colleague…mentor.”

Rosie Perez, who also sat alongside Barbara on View, tweeted her reaction to the recasting loss. “An amazing woman,” Perez wrote. “Amazing loss. Shattering the glass ceiling is a huge understatement. She decimated it. Paved the way for so many. I  feel very proud/humble to have known her & to have worked with her.” 

Walters broke down several barriers through her nearly 60 year career. She  joined ABC News in 1976, becoming the first female anchor on an evening news program. Three years later, she became a co-host of “20/20,” and in 1997, she launched The View.

After 17 years as host of the daytime talk show, Barbara made her final appearance in 2014.  “I do not want to appear on another program or climb another mountain,” she said at the time. “I want instead to sit on a sunny field and admire the very gifted women — and OK, some men too — who will be taking my place.”

Our thoughts are with Barbara Walters family and friends at this times. 

Future Listed As The Only Artist To Remain On Billboard Charts For Every Week In 2022

by

Future has been enjoying a busy and successful year. And before the year officially ends, the Atlanta rapper is now listed as the only musician to chart on Billboard for every week of 2022, according to the Daily Loud.

In April 2022, Future dropped his ninth studio album I Never Liked You. Featuring a tracklist of 22 songs, the long-awaited project also contained features from Drake, Gunna, Kodak Black, EST Gee, Kanye West, and Tems.

“Wait For U,” a popular single from the album, later went viral on social media over the summer. It also topped the Billboard Hot 100 chart, earning Future his first #1 as a main artist.

Recently sitting down with Billboard, he opened up about the process behind the album, revealing, “Songs like “Wait for U,” I make those in my sleep. But I had to make a certain kind of music to go along with my career and everything that was going on at the time.”

“I was capitalizing off different moments and creating from whatever was going on at the time in the world and my personal life. I was taking the energy from that and making music. But those melodic songs, I make those easy — easier than I can make a rap song, I feel,” the 39-year-old continued.

On what’s next for the “Move That Dope” rapper, he also told the outlet, “My main focus right now is just to do something I never done. One thing I never done is make a billion dollars. I ain’t done that, so I’m focused on that.”

by

GloRilla and Cardi B made a huge hit when they dropped “Tomorrow 2” earlier this year. But some fans felt that they couldn’t relate to a certain lyric from the Bronx-born rapper. 

Recently posting online, Cardi B tried to defend her “fighting over d**k” line in a video clip. 

“If a b***h go through your purse and she steal some of your money, you not gonna fight that b***h?” she asked. “Yeah, b***h. You gonna fight for your money, right? So if a n***a is providing for you, giving you money, paying your bills, doing all that sh*t, and a b***h go take him from you, you not gonna fight over that d**k? ‘Cause that’s your money.”

“Now if it’s a broke n***a, b***h I can’t help you,” Cardi B then joked.

The mother of two also addressed the lyric in a tweet posted Thursday, writing, “Y’all talkin bout y’all won’t fight over d**k but y’all be fighting over celebs online all the time ….somebody lying.”

After going viral with her early 2022 hit “F.N.F. (Let’s Go),” GloRilla proved her staying power by teaming up with Cardi B for “Tomorrow 2.” Racking up views on YouTube along with streams and radio play, the hit went on to sell over one million units in the U.S. alone.

The song also peaked at #9 on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart.

Showing her appreciation for the “WAP” rapper, GloRilla recently gifted Cardi B a Patek watch for her 30th birthday.

A week following the end of Tory Lanez’s trial, “The Game” actor Hosea Chanchez is offering support to Megan thee Stallion. Penning an open letter to the Traumazine rapper on Friday evening, Chanchez is publicly standing behind the Texas native after Lanez was handed a guilty verdict.

Walters created “The View” in 1997 and also served as a co-host on the popular daytime talk show. Proving to be a success, the program has currently spanned 26 seasons and earned dozens of Emmy awards.

In recent years, reports began circulating online that Walters was suffering from symptoms related to dementia or Alzheimer’s disease. Sources disclosed to TMZ in 2017 that the former news anchor was barely leaving her NYC apartment and also growing more “forgetful.”

Walters now leaves behind her daughter, 54-year-old Jacqueline Dena Guber. Our hearts go out to the late anchor’s loved ones during this time.
