Cher Calls Her Man “Daddy” In New Year’s Eve Post With Ring

by

New Year’s Eve arrived with a lot of pomp, circumstance, and crazy celebrity parties that we haven’t even dreamed of. Cher recently shared pictures of her with boyfriend Alexander “AE” Edwards for their New Year’s outing, calling him “daddy.” Moreover, she showed off aa glistening ring that has sparked plenty of betrothal rumors on social media.

“Happy New Year Daddy,” she wrote on Twitter, accompanied by a photo of AE kissing her cheek as she smiles. Under his neck, you can see the pop star’s clenched fist boast a diamond ring.

While many might be taken aback by the almost kinky label, remember this is the Goddess of Pop we’re talking about. Moreover, Cher shut down criticisms of their 40-year age gap time after time.

Still, she had to call them out again. In a new post with a new picture from the same night, Cher tweeted out some choice words for the haters.

“This should Send you Haters to The Part in Wizzard of OZ…” she wrote. “WHEN DOROTHY THREW WATER ON THE wicked Witch & Melted her.”

Meanwhile, these expressions are nothing new to those who have been following them for some time. Furthermore, they were first rumored to be together in November 2022, when they were pictured holding hands. Later, Cher confirmed their fling, tweeting (and later deleting) “”LOVE DOESN’T KNOW MATH, IT SEES [heart emojis].” Despite apparent pushback from close friends, the “Believe” icon is sticking by her music exec boo.

“I have had a couple boyfriends that were hovering around my age, but they just didn’t like me for some reason,” she told The Kelly Clarkson Show. “And maybe younger men don’t care if you’re funny or outrageous and want to do stupid things, and you have the strong personality. I’m not giving up my personality for anybody, okay?”

What do you think of Cher’s New Year’s Eve post and her relationship with AE Edwards? Let us know in the comments down below. Also, as always, come back to HNHH to stay updated with the cute snaps, shenanigans, and lavish celebrations from celebrities ringing in the new year.

Ice Spice Shows Off A Whole Lot Of Cake On Her 23rd Birthday

by

We saw several artists rise in popularity throughout 2022, though none of them had a breakout year quite like Ice Spice. In the late summer, the New Yorker seemingly came out of nowhere with her “Munch (Feelin’ U)” track. Since then, her star has only ascended to new heights.

To close out December, the redhead fed her fans one last track, “in ha mood.” It had previously gone viral on TikTok, and though she didn’t share the song on DSPs, it is available for streaming on SoundCloud and YouTube.

In the caption of that upload, Spice teased that her debut project is on the way – hopefully sometime in early 2023. The curvaceous artist’s year is already off to a great start, as she celebrates her 23rd birthday today (January 1).

To commemorate the exciting moment, she posted some salacious snapshots that chiefly find her flaunting her behind for the camera. “Cake day and I got a lot,” her caption reads.

The first photo finds Spice’s cheeks breaking out beneath a black outfit in the mirror. Next, she steps outside to tan her figure in a tiny bikini paired with bright fuzzy slippers. Other additions include tropical beach shots, a video originally uploaded on TikTok, and a beautiful display of rose petals laid out on her bed.

Additionally, the “Bikini Bottom” hitmaker recreated the carousel’s first photo, though this time around she bared far more skin – and booty.

Plenty of friends have dropped by the comment section already to send Spice birthday greetings. “Damn shawty [heart eyes emoji],” Chloe Bailey wrote alongside hers. Rubi Rose, Nas-X” class=”text-word” target=”_blank” >Lil Nas X, and Lakeyah also left kind words for the Bronx baddie.

Last month, Ice Spice joined Erykah Badu and her daughter for an interview. During their chat, the former made it known that her dream collaborations are Nicki Minaj and Doja Cat.

LaKeith Stanfield Shares New Year’s Photo With Fiancée

by

Actor and musician LaKeith Stanfield recently posted a cute New Year’s photo with his fiancée, model Kasmere Trice. Moreover, they posed for a pic after astounding revelations this week that Stanfield had a secret baby with artist Tylor Hurd also known as 730t.

He simply captioned the post with “Happy new year!” Furthermore, the picture shows the couple dressed in all-white in front of a glamorous Christmas tree. There are decorations galore, plus a sea of tables from beyond the windows where you can see some guests. Also, it’s one of a few social media posts that have either enamored fans or made them jealous.

However, their relationship took a wild turn when the baby daddy revelations emerged right before 2023. The 31-year-old’s baby mama posted a video to her social media celebrating the birth of their daughter Apollo. Later, many criticized the news coming so soon after LaKeith announced his engagement. Still, Hurd’s words put things in a different context.

“Decided to leave being someone’s secret family in 2022. Meet Apollo Stanfield,” she wrote in her post. As backlash, shock, and sympathy came in from fans and regular users alike, she returned to IG to explain.

“Just to clear a few things up, I’m not jealous that he’s engaged to a woman he’s known for five months,” she wrote. “I tried to meet the girl and everything and she ignored me when I tried.” 

“What I’m upset about is that he’s made more time to spend with this woman than he’s spent with Apollo her whole life,” she continued. “[He’s] been actively ignoring me when I’m trying to figure things out for our child. And those clips of him and her together are all I have in general cause he barely sees her.”

Still, what do you think of the Atlanta actor’s engagement and situation with Tylor Hurd? Let us know in the comments down below. Also, as always, check back in with HNHH to see if this story has more to it than we know.

Elon Musk Is The First Person Ever To Lose $200 Billion

by

Elon Musk has certainly been all over the news in recent months. It appears as though this trend will be continuing into the new year.

His recent acquisition of Twitter and his controversial ways of handling the company remains one of the most discussed topics online. The latest story says that the 51-year-old reportedly lost $200 billion. However, this has nothing to do with the social media platform.

Musk is the first person in history to lose this much money from his net worth. The huge financial loss arrives at the heels of Tesla shares dropping drastically. According to Bloomberg‘s Billionaires Index, the stock saw an 11% decrease on Tuesday (December 27).

Of course, this news comes nearly two years after he became only the second person to ever reach a personal fortune of more than $200 billion. Although, even after the loss, his net worth is still estimated to be a whopping $137 billion.

In other recent news surrounding the SpaceX CEO, reports allege that he is responsible for another mass firing at Twitter. In an effort to cut costs, Musk fired every member of the janitorial staff at the company’s San Fransisco offices.

“With people packed into more confined spaces, the smell of leftover takeout food and body odor has lingered on the floors, according to four current and former employees. Bathrooms have grown dirty, these people said. And because janitorial services have largely been ended, some workers have resorted to bringing their own rolls of toilet paper from home,” writes The New York Times in their report.

Just a couple of weeks ago, he announced he will be stepping down as Twitter’s CEO in the near future. This came after he ran a poll asking the platform’s users if he should do so. “I will abide by the results of this poll,” he writes. After over 17 million votes, 57.5% of them answered yes. It will certainly be interesting to see if he sticks to his word.

What are your thoughts on Musk’s most recent antics? Comment down below. Finally, make sure to stay tuned to HNHH for the latest updates.

Nick Cannon Expertly Claps Back At Andy Cohen’s Vasectomy Inquiry: Watch

by

Nick Cannon’s large blended family sparks no shortage of conversation in the media. By now, the father of 12 has undeniably become a pro at defending his decisions. Last night, he did just that while chatting with hosts Andy Cohen and Anderson Cooper on their New Year’s Eve Live show from Times Square.

The Bravo icon asked the recording artist about his “endgame” on his apparent “single-[handed]” quest to “[repopulate] the Earth.” He asked Cannon, “What is your plan?”

In response, the California native said, “Clearly, I don’t have a plan. Honestly, man, it’s just so much joy and elation that I have. The family that I have, I embrace it. I love it, and I don’t have a plan. That should have been clear from the jump.”

Cohen couldn’t help but retort with an inquiry that’s been on the minds of many as of late. “A vasectomy?” he teased. “Is that what you want me to get?” Cannon clapped back. “It’s my body, my choice.”

Turning the conversation back to a lighter topic, Cooper jumped in and asked the 42-year-old for any fatherly advice for new dads out there. He happily obliged, encouraging them to, “just operate out of love.”

“I mean some people may say that’s what got us here in the first place, but that’s what I would always do, and always do it with a smile,” he went on.

As far as New Year’s resolutions go, Cannon says he doesn’t specifically have any. “Like I said, I’m just so happy for health, and want to continue to be as healthy and filled with as much gratitude as possible for the next year,” he told Cohen and Cooper.

As TMZ notes, The Masked Singer host welcomed a total of five children in 2022. He and Bre Tiesi had their first, Legendary, in June. Afterward, LaNisha Cole welcomed baby Onyx, and Brittany Bell delivered Rise Messiah.

Additionally, Abby Da La Rosa gave birth to Zeppelin, a baby girl in recent weeks. His latest arrival, though, is Halo, who was born to Alyssa Scott after the death of their son Zen. Read more about the new baby here, and check back later for more pop culture updates.

Chrisean Rock Says Her First Word Was “Hallelujah,” Shares New Gospel Song

by

Even our earliest memories stick with us all the way to adulthood, and sometimes they can result in some streams. Chrisean Rock teased a new gospel song called “Hallelujah” via Instagram and said that it was her first word. In the short clip, she sang along to the song’s lyrics and jumped up in excitement. Also, some trap drums come in later that makes it sound like a potentially hip-hop based cut. Whatever the case, Blueface’s lady was excited in the comments to share the track.

“Fun fact : my first word was hallelujah n made a gospel song called hallelujah,” she wrote. “In Jesus name this year 2023 with be nothing but abundance and more Love MORE LIFE Amen.”

In addition, there was another clip shared from her TikTok where her love of gospel comes through clearly. Moreover, she was chilling with her boo Blueface as they listened to a gospel song together. In the video, the California rapper is sitting down drinking, throwing up a few sets as the song plays. Meanwhile, Chrisean is dancing and singing along to the song, occasionally going in for a hug with her man.

However, Chrisean jokingly tried to stop Blueface from signing during the song. Even with all the years passed, there’s still that gut reaction, but it was a sweet moment. Still, it hasn’t been all peaches and cream for the two. In recent clips from their Crazy In Love reality show, they bickered over their relationship, with Chrisean saying it’s forced.

“I need space from this, like, forced-ass relationship,” she said. “Like, I don’t know if it’s a business-ship or a relationship. Is he with me because there’s opportunity in it, or [does] he really just want to be with me?”

While their relationship has been notoriously rocky, that clash unfortunately transcended beyond the couple’s boundaries. Blueface’s mom and Chrisean are notoriously at odds, especially after recent social media jabs.

What did you think of the clip of Chrisean’s new song “Hallelujah” and it being her first word? Let us know in the comments down below. Also, as always, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest in hip-hop relationships and upcoming music.

Luka Doncic & Giannis Antetokounmpo To Face Off In International Game For First Time

by

Luka Doncic and Giannis Antetokounmpo continue to be two of the most elite players in the NBA. So far this season, the Greek Power Forward is averaging 32 points and nearly 12 rebounds per game. Comparatively, Doncic is averaging 34 points, to go along with his nearly nine rebounds and assists per game.

On Sunday (January 1), the Greek Basketball Federation announced that the two will face off in a friendly game. The game is set to be in Athens, Greece on August 4. The match will be between the two stars’ home countries – Greece vs. Slovenia.

The 2023 FIBA World Cup is taking place from August 25-September 10. The game between their countries will serve as a preparation game for the event. The tournament is expecting both players to play for their home countries, making this the first time the two will play each other in an international game.

Doncic is fresh off of his historic night last week, dropping an insane stat line. On Tuesday (December 27), he dropped 60 points, 21 rebounds and 10 assists in the Mavericks’ 126-121 win over the New York Knicks. The 23-year-old is the first player in NBA history to end a game with this stat line.

Both players did play in the 2022 FIBA EuroBasket last year. However, Germany is responsible for eliminating Greece, while Poland eliminated Slovenia. Both took place in the quarterfinals. Although it’s just a friendly match, it will certainly be entertaining to watch these two All-Stars square off in new territory.

Are you looking forward to Doncic and Antetokounmpo playing each other in international play? Comment down below. Finally, make sure to stay tuned to HNHH for all of the latest updates.

North And Chicago West Twin In New TikTok, Kim K Explains Her Kid’s Social Media Rules

by

As the eldest of the Kardashian-West children, North has spent more time in the spotlight than any of her siblings. Her earliest years were documented on Keeping Up With the Kardashians. Now, the world has been watching the young girl grow up via her joint TikTok account with her mom.

In the past, the 9-year-old’s social media use has been a source of contention between her parents. The reality starlet encourages her daughter to have fun and express herself in creative and silly online videos. At the same time, Ye has been more focused on protecting his children’s privacy and innocence.

During a recent appearance on The goop Podcast, Kim and Gwyneth Paltrow had a candid conversation about navigating the online space as a parent. “[TikTok] can only be on my own phone,” the mother of four told the actress of her rules with her kids.

“It’s not something where she can scroll and look at things,” Kardashian went on. “We don’t do comments. She loves to do it and it makes her so happy. She’s so innocent in so many ways,” she additionally noted.

While the blocked comment section leaves some TikTok users disappointed, North’s content has been undeniably impactful over the past few months – especially when one is in need of a quick laugh or a feel-good moment.

In one of her recent videos, the internet sensation turned her little sister, Chicago West, into her mini-me.

Following suit of those who have been participating in the “turning my mom into me” challenge on the app, North put her own spin on it by styling her sibling as her.

Initially, we see the 4-year-old sporting a Batgirl costume and checkered Vans. When she returns, however, she looks just like big sis, rocking a black graphic tee, printed shorts, and rectangular sunglasses.

Check out the wholesome video for yourself below, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.

Summer Walker Welcomes Twins: “I’m So Proud Of Myself”

by

Summer Walker is welcoming the new year with two less babies in her womb, and two more in her arms Earthside. Recently, the Still Over It songstress gave birth to her second and third children, and though she and her ex Larry are no longer together, he was right by her side through the entire rollercoaster.

“I’m so proud of myself,” she wrote on Instagram over the weekend. “Just sharing to inspire other women, cause I know once you carry twins to almost 42 weeks, especially with one breech, people will try to steer you towards induction or C-section.”

Walker noted that there’s nothing wrong with either of these choices, they were just not what she personally wanted.

During her first experience, the Atlanta native opted for a home birth. Her celebrity status even allowed her to connect with Erykah Badu, who aided in the delivery of baby Bubbles. The renowned singer returned to help Walker once again for her second go and even brought her daughter along for extra support this time.

In fact, it was actually Badu who previously unofficially revealed that Walker was expecting twins. Since her initial post, fans have been eagerly awaiting confirmation that her family has expanded by two more.

On her Instagram, Walker opened up about the exhausting process and the support system that carried her through it. “You can do it, this was my second home birth. All natural, seven hours, no tearing. I couldn’t [have] done it without my spirit guides, Godparents, birth team, [and] my elders.”

Additionally, she gave a shoutout to Larry for being “the best dad doula ever.” According to the new mother, “he was so hands-on the whole time,” leaving her feeling particularly impressed.

“It wasn’t easy but it gets done,” Walker added. “Lol both births I almost blacked out at the end but eating your placenta will definitely keep you above water. I have thin blood so I always end up going to the hospital to bring myself back into good strength for them. As long as my kids stay at home untouched, I’m good.”

Read Summer Walker’s birthing announcement below, and tell us what you think she should name the babies in the comments.

Alleged XXXTENTACION Murderer Says Drake Needs To Testify In Trial

by

It’s been nearly five years since XXXTENTACION was murdered in Florida at just 20 years old. However, his legacy lives on because of his expressive music that continues to touch his fanbase. However, the Florida native did have a rather controversial past with violent accusations.

The suspect in his murder, Dedrick Williams, has pleaded not guilty. Now, he’s calling on some big names to testify due to their alleged involvement.

Just a couple of weeks ago, Williams’ attorney listed a bunch of high-profile people as potential witnesses in the case. Joe Budden, 6ix9ine, Quavo, Takeoff (R.I.P.) and Drake are on this list.

New reports from AllHipHop indicate that the alleged murderer really wants Drake to testify at the trial. “The testimony of the said Aubrey Drake Graham is material to the case, and it is necessary to take the deposition of the said Aubrey Drake Graham to prevent the failure of justice,” says the document.

Drizzy and the “SAD!” rapper had a documented beef that began in 2017. Upon the Toronto star releasing his More Life project that year, the Florida native took exception to one of its tracks, “KMT.” X publicly claimed that Drake was stealing his flow and cadence on the song. The track that he’s allegedly ripping off is X’s mega-hit, “Look At Me!”

Williams and his attorney allegedly believe that Drizzy’s talking about the murder in one of his most recent songs, “On BS,” is him talking about the murder. “Damn, maybe I should do a twenty, maybe I should break that twenty, do a ten / Maybe I should break that ten, do a five, then if it gets live, do a five again / If he held his tongue on that live, he’d be alive again,” he raps in the second verse.

Additionally, Williams and his legal team also want DJ Akademiks to testify in the trial. His attorney claims that the media personality consistently makes comments about the case while streaming.

“Mr. Allen, who goes by the stage name ‘DJ Akademiks’ posted his podcast on December 21, where he openly discusses the case, acknowledges being served and states, ‘I am not showing up to court to talk to y’all n****s’. It is clear that nothing short of a court order will ensure Mr. Allen’s participation in a deposition,” the document reads elsewhere.

What are your thoughts on the situation? Do you think Drake should have to testify in the trial? Comment your thoughts down below. Finally, make sure to stay tuned to HNHH for all of the latest updates.
