Gisele Bündchen Makes 1st Red Carpet Appearance Since Tom Brady Split

by

Gisele Bündchen made her first red carpet appearance since announcing her divorce from Tom Brady on Monday. The supermodel was attending a dinner celebrating the 60th anniversary of the jewelry company, Vivara, in Sao Paulo, Brazil.

At the event, Bündchen rocked a gold gown with her hair up in a high ponytail. She adorned the look with a pair of drop earrings and a necklace.

Bündchen and Brady finalized their divorce back in October following 13 years of marriage. They will continue to co-parent their children. They share a son, Benjamin, 13, and a daughter Vivian, 10. Brady is also separately the father to another son, Jack, 15.

“My priority has always been and will continue to be our children whom I love with all my heart,” Gisele said in her statement about the divorce. “We will continue co-parenting to give them the love, care and attention they greatly deserve.”

“The decision to end a marriage is never easy but we have grown apart,” she further continued. “And while it is, of course, difficult to go through something like this, I feel blessed for the time we had together and only wish the best for Tom always.”

It’s been reported that Brady’s decision to return to the NFL after previously retiring played a significant role in the divorce. In a cover story for Elle from September, Bündchen discussed Brady’s choice.

“Obviously, I have my concerns. This is a very violent sport, and I have my children and I would like him to be more present,” she said at the time. “I have definitely had those conversations with him over and over again. But ultimately, I feel that everybody has to make a decision that works for [them]. He needs to follow his joy, too.”

Megan Thee Stallion Heckled At Courthouse, Takes The Stand

by

We’re not even 48 hours into the trial against Tory Lanez and it has already made for interesting revelations. Lanez is facing several felony accounts and stands accused of shooting Megan Thee Stallion in the foot in July 2020. The incident made international headlines and has become a divisive conversation within Hip Hop. The Canadian rapper-singer-producer insists he wasn’t the person who fired the shots, but Megan counters by doubling down that she saw him shoot her.

Opening statements occurred yesterday (December 13), and today, the Houston hitmaker was filmed entering the courthouse. A swarm of supporters of both sides assembled outside of the building, including a group who were holding a large banner in solidarity with Megan. However, not everyone was there to give her well wishes.

In one clip, as Megan is escorted by security, someone in the crowd is heard shouting at her. “Why you lyin’ on that boy?!” someone repeatedly yelled. She was silent as she entered the courthouse, but according to reports, she gave her truth while on the stand. It was stated that Megan was questioned for approximately 45 minutes and became “nervous,” saying she was still in disbelief that this was occurring.

“She entered court around 11:15 a.m. to shouts of support in the hallway,” wrote Los Angeles Times crime reporter James Queally. “Tory Lanez did not look at her when she entered.” He added that Megan testified the argument with Lanez began because she was ready to leave Kylie Jenner’s party. Lanez allegedly wasn’t ready to go and “had an attitude” when they got in the car.

Lanez told Megan, “You need to stop lying to your friend,” meaning Kelsey Harris. The rapper wanted out of the vehicle, but she couldn’t rush off because “I’m in the peak of being famous and I’m in a thong.”

Megan told the court Lanez did stop and let her out of the vehicle. During the shooting, Megan says Lanez yelled “dance b*tch” and fired five times. “I’m in shock. I’m scared. I hear the gun going off. I can’t believe he’s shooting at me.”

“Asked why she didn’t report shooting to LAPD during the vehicle stop: ‘At this time we are at the height of police brutality… I felt if I said this man had shot me, they might shoot first and ask questions later,” reported Queally. “I don’t feel safe in the car, I don’t feel safe with the police.”

Megan added: “First of all in the Black community, in my community, it’s not really acceptable to be cooperating with police officers.” She also addressed Drake allegedly referencing the incident on Her Loss, suggesting Megan was lying.

“The whole situation in the industry is like a big boy’s club,” she reportedly testified. “Like I’m telling on one of y’all friends, now you’re all about to hate me.”

Young Thug Receives More Charges As He & Gunna Await RICO Trial

by

With less than a month until the YSL RICO trial officially begins, Young Thug is receiving another slew of charges. Thankfully, these ones are just misdemeanours. Still, though, they’re causing speedbumps for the “Day Before” hitmaker on his hopeful road to freedom.

On Monday (December 12), WSB-TV broke the news that Jeffrey Williams is in hot water for street racing, reckless driving, and speeding. He apparently drove a vehicle at 120 MPH during a May joyride on Interstate 85.

In response to these new claims, Thugger’s attorney, Brian Steel is maintaining his client’s innocence. “As of two weeks ago, that case was being resolved with a seatbelt violation,” he explained in a statement. “Today, now its indicted in the Fulton County Superior Court.”

Because of this, the rapper’s legal team deeply feels as though the system is doing him wrong.

Days before these new accusations came out, headlines revealed that prosecutors are currently working to ban video cameras from the January trial. At this time, several witnesses have been expressing concern for their safety if their testimony goes public.

“The State is concerned that video recordings of witnesses’ and victims’ faces could endanger these individuals’ safety,” a motion filed by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis says.

She also wrote, “The State is concerned about the impact upon due process and the truth-finding function of the judicial proceeding. Witnesses may be afraid to testify and provide full information if they are aware they are being video-recorded, and that their personal safety could be jeopardized as a result of their testimony.”

Previously, Willis filed another motion attempting to have the YSL RICO trial pushed back to March of next year. Her reasoning was to ensure that everyone in the indictment has adequate legal representation.

However, a Judge wants to ensure that Young Thug and Gunna have a fair chance at freedom. They’ve each been denied bond multiple times since their arrest in May. Read more about that here, and check back with HNHH later for more hip-hop news updates.

Diddy Defends Yung Miami After Akademiks Calls Her A Side Chick

by

Akademiks and Yung Miami had the timeline in shambles on Monday as the two traded shots. After Diddy announced the birth of his seventh child, Twitter instantly began hounding down Yung Miami. Though her mentions were likely filled with trolls already calling her a “side chick,” Akademiks’s commentary clearly stood out.

“Diddy different… my N***a done f*cked around and had a side baby on his harem of side chicks,” Ak’s tweet read. “Brother Love a real 1.”

Miami tore into Ak in a series of tweets online, explicitly denying that she’s anyone’s side-piece. “I’M NOBODY SIDE BITCH LETS JUST MAKE THIS CLEAR ON THIS GOOD MONDAY! I don’t come 2nd to no bitch!” she wrote.

“Akademiks my name ain’t dick so keep it out your mouth!!! You the type of N***a my uncle doing life sentences for BITCH ASS N***A!!!!!” she continued.

Though Akademiks later clapped back during his stream, it appears that Brother Love caught wind of what the streamer had to say. Shortly after, Diddy hopped on Twitter to clear the air on his relationship status with Yung Miami, who he said was “very important and special” to him.

“@yungmiami305 is not my side chick. Never has been, never will be. She’s very important and special to me, and I don’t play about my Shawty Wop. I don’t discuss things on the internet and I will not start today,” he wrote.

Though he didn’t address Akademiks specifically, his subsequent tweet appeared to be a final warning for anyone who tries to play with Yung Miami.

“So think what you want. But know that if you do something to hurt mine, I’m gonna to come to your house and we’re gonna talk about it like human beings. LOVE,” he concluded.

No word from Akademiks yet but we’re sure he’ll have some thoughts on Diddy’s tweet during his next live stream.

Diddy’s Alleged BM Dana Tran Lip-Syncs to City Girls

by

When Diddy shared that the Combs family welcomed a new baby girl, the public didn’t know how to react. Initially, some suggested that one of the Bad Boy mogul’s sons must have welcomed a child; however, it was only a matter of hours before more information was shared. As the rumor mill worked overtime, TMZ emerged with an update. They confirmed Diddy and a California woman welcomed a daughter in October.

Quickly, people began searching for the identity of the mother. She is said to be a cyber security specialist named Dana Tran, and this news has caused her life to become a trending topic. Although it looks like she has now wiped her TikTok clean, a video showed Tran dancing to a viral track that hosts a look from City Girls.

Moneybagg Yo’s “Said Sum (Remix)” featured the hitmaking Florida duo, and JT’s portion was widely popular in a TikTok trend. The mother of Diddy’s youngest daughter can be seen lip-syncing to the lyrics—sort of. She didn’t quite nail down every line, but she looked like she was enjoying herself, just the same.

This, of course, ignited the internet, considering City Girls rapper Yung Miami has been dating Diddy for some time. The pair have collaborated in the studio, flirted on social media, discussed their romance on Caresha Please, and posed in photographs from their jet-setting adventures. DJ Akademiks stirred the pot by labeling Yung Miami as a side chick, but she hopped online to refute his claims.

Meanwhile, people continue to piece together who Dana Tran is, as well as her relationship with Diddy. She wants to keep her life as fiercely protected as possible, but the internet isn’t giving her any peace. Check out her video above.

Boosie Reacts To Ye’s Rosa Parks Comments: “Tryin’ To Take Away All Black Glory”

by

Boosie Badazz has never been afraid to speak his mind. As someone who’s certainly no stranger to controversy, the rap veteran is back to sharing his candid thoughts.

This time, the Baton Rouge native is speaking out against Ye and his most recent comments, which were made about Rosa Parks. He’s obviously not happy about the remarks.

The “Wipe Me Down” rapper was previously active on Twitter yesterday (December 12). In his posts, Boosie chiefly calls for the Black community to come together in cancelling him the same way the Jewish community has.

“IT’S A SHAME THIS MAN IS REALLY TRYIN’ TO TAKE AWAY ALL BLACK GLORY,” he angrily tweeted.

“BLACKS SHOULD DO THIS MAN LIKE THE JEWS DID HIM!! NOW HES COMING FOR BLACK HISTORY,” the 40-year-old continued later in his rant.

In recent audio of Ye, the disgraced rapper can be heard detailing his conspiracy theories on how much the media controls. “Since 1948, all of these movements… I know [the] woke finna be mad at me, but all of these heroes man, there’s only one. That’s Jesus Christ,” he says.

“MLK, JFK, Malcom, Rosa Parks… We know Rosa Parks was a plant. We know all of these things, right? And they use these media outlets to outrage,” the father of four continued.

The artist formerly known as Kanye West subsequently went on to label the media as the “trauma economy.”

“Although people die every week,” the Chicago native believes they pick and choose which deaths to promote in an attempt to create trauma in Black communities.

These comments from Ye are only the most recent problematic statements he’s made. During a media tirade in which he announced his 2024 Presidential bid, the Yeezy founder caused serious harm stemming from his anti-semitic comments. At the time, he explicitly praised Hitler.

Evidently, he’s still spewing out hurtful statements despite the backlash and consequences.

Do you think Boosie has a point here? Comment down below and stay tuned to HNHH for the latest updates.

Pete Davidson and Emily Ratajkowski are reportedly “getting more serious,” according to sources close to the couple. The report comes after the two sat courtside at a Knicks game at Madison Square Garden, last month.

“They are going strong and getting a little more serious,” a source close to Davidson told People. They added that they “are really enjoying their time together.”

Additionally, the two reportedly have a lot “in common.” Specifically, they share “similar vibes personality-wise and style-wise” as well as “a love of the East Coast.”

The source added that Davidson “really makes her laugh and keeps things fun.”

A second source, one close to Ratajkowski, agreed that the couple are “getting more serious.”

They explained she “keeps seeing Pete and is enjoying it,” describing their romance as “fun without any stress.”

“Pete takes her to dinner and events. They also hang out a lot at home,” the insider said, adding he “is very chill and understanding about her being a mom.” Ratajkowski is a mother to 21-month-old son Sylvester, whom she shares with Sebastian Bear-McClard.

Ratajkowski and Bear-McClard split back in July 2022 after the two had married in 2018.

The source also said that Ratajkowski is “in a great place” following her “very unexpected and rough” divorce. However, they added, “it took her a while to bounce back.”

Prior to being linked to Ratajkowski, Davidson had been in a relationship with Kim Kardashian for several months. The two went their separate ways in August.

by

His opinions are known to rub people the wrong way, but DJ Akademiks doesn’t mind having an enemy or two. The blogger and Off The Record podcast host often goes toe-to-toe—albeit online—with his entertainment peers for how he delivers takes on pop culture and Hip Hop. Most recently, the news of Sean “Diddy” Combs welcoming a daughter months ago with a California woman went viral. This, of course, received a wave of attention, and Akademiks chimed in to point the spotlight at Yung Miami.

He reportedly suggested that the City Girls star was Diddy’s side chick or, at the very least, came secondary. After engaging in a heated back and forth with Yung Miami, actor and model Luka Sabbat had a question that he took to Twitter.

The Grown-ish actor wrote: “Why does dj akademiks only pick smoke with females… I ain’t never see him keep that energy with another man.”

It is an observation that Ak has often faced, but he decided to unleash during a Livestream. He called Sabbat a “bum ass n*gga” and invited the actor to “come over here.” Akademiks even said he would “book [him] a ticket” to his “headquarters” so they could settle things in some sort of fight.

Meanwhile, it was just yesterday (December 12) when Yung Miami gave Akademiks a piece of her mind. After learning of his remarks, she didn’t hold back in her response.

Lil Fizz’s Butt Causes Him To Go Viral After Nude Video Leaks

by

They say all publicity is good publicity, right? Hopefully this is true for Lil Fizz, who is now trending online for an unexpected reason.

The former B2K member is all over the internet after the world was witness to a nude video of him leaking. The footage is explicitly making its rounds all over social media.

The X-rated video allegedly comes from his OnlyFans account. After being accessed by the wrong people, it’s now undeniably one of the hottest topics on Twitter.

“Do NOT check why Lil Fizz is trending smh,” one user subsequently wrote after investigating the salacious trend for themselves.

“Lil Fizz took ‘Bump, Bump, Bump’ to heart I see,” another user tweeted along with some emojis crying with laughter. This reference comes from the title of B2K’s 2002 hit with Diddy.

“Baby, turn around and let me see that sexy body go / Bump, bump, bump,” the group sings on the hook.

“In 2022 I done seen (against my will) Lil Fizz wee wee and bootyhole…” another Twitter user chimed in.

Surprisingly, this isn’t the first time the youngest member of the R&B group has been the victim of an intimate leak. A nude video of his genitalia allegedly made its way online in February.

In other news this year, the former Love & Hip-Hop: Hollywood star has continued his long-time beef with fellow singer Omarion.

The former bandmates have a long history of sending shots at each other. In September, Fizz sat down for an interview with Drink Champs. This is when he began chiming in on why he thinks the “Post to Be” singer left the group back in the day.

The 37-year-old alleges that the reason for the MMG singer going solo was because he hooked up with a girl he liked.

Additionally, this wasn’t the first time the two singers were involved with the same woman during their time working together. In the early 2000s, Fizz began dating Apryl Jones, who’s the mother of Omarion’s child.

As a result, the off-and-on beef was consequently ignited. It’s evidently still going on to this day.

Although this isn’t Fizz’s first scandal, he certainly has some questions to answer. Nonetheless, check out some more reactions to the leak on social media below.

Will Smith To Talk “Emancipation” & Oscars On “Red Table Talk”

by

It has arguably been one of the most challenging years for Will Smith. The Fresh Prince icon had an almost unblemished record in the entertainment industry—a feat that isn’t easy to accomplish. He is an acclaimed actor with a reputation for being family-friendly, but his Academy Award moment shifted perspectives. Smith infamously slapped Chris Rock earlier this year on the Oscars stage, and he has been speaking freely about the incident in recent weeks.

As Smith promotes his latest film Emancipation, he has been addressing the controversy after months of silence. Now, he joins his family once again on Red Table Talk to detail his transformation for Emancipation and the moment that changed his career forever.

A press release for Wednesday’s (December 14) episode calls the Red Table Talk conversation “deeply intimate and revealing.” This will be the first time several of the Smith family will come together for this personal discussion. The actor reportedly admits that, for the first time in his expansive career, he almost “went too far” and nearly “lost himself.”

“Will shares the biggest revelations of his life, a horrific moment he experienced while filming and a co-star who refused to speak to him,” the press release added.

In a promotional photo of the episode, it’s easy to note that Smith’s wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, was omitted. He posed will all of his children: Trey, Willow, and Jaden.

The Academy Awards moment between Smith and Rock sparked after the comedian joked about Jada’s bald head. While she didn’t say anything in the broadcast clip, the actress was vilified by the public and several of her peers. The move to not have her participate in the Red Table Talk conversation could be for Smith to detail his feelings without Jada once again unnecessarily taking the blame.

Will Smith’s appearance on Red Table Talk will premiere tomorrow, Dec. 14, on Facebook Watch.
