Tamika Scott Alleges LaTocha Scott-Bivens Robbed Her Of $30k

by

There’s no drama quite like family drama and Xscape’s Tamika Scott and LaTocha Scott-Bivens are a testament to that. The first time Tamika publicly spoke about her issues with her sister was on December 1st, 2022 during a radio show interview. The Xscape singer said, “I love my sister, and I’m always here for her. The personal problems that we’re having as a family should have never been spoken about. But she decided to speak on it to clear her name.”

This was in reference to a post that LaTocha made on Instagram. She made the post to clear the air about her out-of-place look at the 2022 Soul Train Awards. The issues between the two sisters didn’t end there. In a recent Page Six interview, Tamika shared the reason why she and her sister are not on speaking terms.

Morial Convention Center on July 2, 2017 in New Orleans, Louisiana. (Photo by Paras Griffin/Getty Images for 2017 ESSENCE Festival )

In the interview, Tamika alleged that LaTocha and her husband, Rocky Bivens, stole money from her by cashing $30,000 worth of checks into his account. She made this revelation at their mom Gloria’s house, where the two sisters were trying to reach an understanding with each other. “When you stole my money, mama didn’t say nothing. When you and Rocky stole my money, mama didn’t say nothing. Mama got quiet just like she quiet now,” Tamika said in the heated exchange. LaTocha was quick to deny Tamika’s claims, but the “Understand” singer stood firm in her claim.

At a later date, Tamika sat down with Gloria to unpack the situation. The conversation quickly went sideways, as Tamika claimed that Gloria showed unfair favoritism towards her older sister. Gloria was quick to refute her claims and made the counterargument that Tamika created a false narrative to help her sleep at night. The SWV & Xscape: The Queens of R&B star didn’t take that lying down, and was quick to retort, ”If I can sleep at night? He’s in my business, he’s taking my money from me and my family. But if I can sleep at night?” Gloria fired back, “Ain’t nobody taking money from you.” What are your thoughts on the situation? Tell us in the comments!

Evelyn Lozada Engaged To “Queens Court” Finalist Lavon Lewis

by

Love is in the air for Evelyn Lozado, who announced her new engagement. The Basketball Wives alum is preparing to walk down the aisle again, this time with Lavon Lewis. Lozada and Lewis met on none other than reality television after Evelyn was featured on a dating show. Peacock’s Queens Court stars Lozada, Tamar Braxton, and Nivea, and the ladies dated 21 men in an effort to find their Prince Charming. According to PEOPLE, Lozada and Lewis met on the second episode and nurtured their connection to a proposal. He reportedly dropped down to one knee in December on Lozada’s birthday.

“The thing about Evelyn is, it is very hard to surprise her,” the marketing firm cofounder told PEOPLE. “I told her to pack her bags, we’re going somewhere. She was blindfolded until she got to the front door. She walked in to about 20 close friends and family and the big ‘marry me’ letters, roses on the ground, things like that.” It was all a surprise for Lozada, who said she had no clue her man planned to pop the question.

Evelyn Lozada Is Ready For A New Beginning

“I didn’t know that he was going to propose that day,” Lozada shared. “I didn’t know what I was walking into. He was being very sneaky and, in all honesty, I was a little irritated because I’m such an alpha female. I’m kind of like, ‘Why do I have to pack? Why do I have to do this?’ It was really, really difficult for me to just let go and allow him to do his thing.” The couple is still working out their distance, as Lewis lives in Atlanta and Lozada resides in L.A. Still, she added he makes sure to hop on a plane to see her whenever possible.

Additionally, Lewis is also a man who pays attention to his woman. Lozada previously partnered with Twila True for her jewelry line, and Lewis turned to the company to help design the engagement ring. “It was the perfect size and shape,” Lozada further shared. “I’ve never had that stone, so he did a really, really good job. But I’m not surprised. Lavon is a creative mind and he doesn’t forget anything.”

Relationships Of The Past

This makes for Lozada’s third engagement and second marriage. She was in a ten-year relationship with former NBA star Antoine Walker. The two were engaged but split in 2008. She later dated former MLB star turned 1501 Certified Entertainment founder Carl Crawford. The two welcomed a son and were engaged before breaking up in 2017. She was also infamously married to Chad “Ochocinco” Johnson for a month but divorced following their domestic violence incident.

by

They are two groups that dominated their era of R&B, and Xscape and SWV are uniting for a new reality show. Neither crew is a stranger to unscripted television, but fans will get an inside look at how they unite to rehearse for a one-night concert. The ladies know each other well and have performed together in the past, but Queens of R&B will give an inside look that not many are privy to.

Today (January 31), the Bravo network closed the month by sharing the first trailer for its new show. As expected, with so many famous voices, there is bound to be a bit of tension.

The trailer shows that much of the contention concerns who will be named the headliner. Additionally, unresolved issues from the past also creep into the present day, boiling over into uncomfortable conversations.

Still, fans of both Xscape and SWV know that the women have a longstanding respect for one another. We also celebrated them on the Verzuz stage in 2021 as they brought some of our favorite R&B jams to life in real time.

Todd and Julie Chrisley Report to Federal Prisons

The reality TV franchise Chrisley Knows Best stars Todd and Julie Chrisley reported to federal facilities Tuesday to begin their prison sentences following fraud convictions. Todd Chrisley surrendered to the Federal Prison Camp (FPC) Pensacola in Florida. At the same time, Julie Chrisley arrived at the Federal Medical Center (FMC) Lexington in Kentucky, according to the Bureau of Prisons.

 Officials report Julie Chrisley’s designated location was changed on Dec. 20 from the Sunshine State’s Correctional Institution Marianna to the Federal Medical Center Lexington in Lexington, Ky, where inmates require medical or mental health care.

In June, the couple was convicted of fraud, tax evasion, and conspiracy by a federal jury in Atlanta. Though they faced 30 years each behind bars, they were sentenced to a combined 19 years in November. Todd Chrisley was sentenced to 12 years, and his wife got seven years.

The undoing of the couple’s previous lives appeared around the same time as “Real Housewives of Salt Lake City” star Jen Shah faced federal prosecution before she pleaded guilty to wire fraud. Shah is scheduled to report to a federal facility on Feb. 17 to begin her 78-month term. 

The couple is best known for their show on USA Network, owned by NBCUniversal, where they star alongside their children. The future of the show has not been announced. An attorney for the couple declined to comment Tuesday, but the two stand by their claims of innocence, blaming any wrongdoing on a former employee acting without their knowledge.

A request to begin their sentences in three weeks was denied, as was their request for bail pending their appeal to the courts.

Julie appeared on Tuesday’s edition of their daughter Savannah’s podcast, Unlocked, which was pre-recorded.

“I have come to a place, and it’s taken me a while to get there, to know that God has a plan. God has a purpose for my pain. That this is not the end of the road for me or our family,” she said. “And that my story, at some point, I hope and pray will help someone else at their lowest.”

In the wake of their legal issues, Todd Chrisley said, “In this storm that we’re in, I feel like I’m closer to God than I’ve ever been,” as he spoke on Julie’s own Chrisley Confessions podcast just after the sentencing. “But I find myself screaming out, because, you know, in the Bible, it says to scream out to God, to cry out to God. And, you know, with what we’re going through right now, you’ve heard me do that. You’ve heard me say, ‘God, please, I’m crying out to you.’ I don’t know what else to do. I’m asking for the truth to be revealed. I’m asking for you to shed light where there is darkness. I’m asking for our enemies to be exposed.”

Blueface’s Mom Threatens To “Slap The Shit” Out Of Him: Watch

by

For some, Sunday is the Lord’s day. For others, however, it’s a day sure to be full of chaos and drama thanks to a new episode of Blueface and Chrisean Rock’s Crazy In Love.

The last few weeks have seen the famous couple’s antics playing out on their Zeus reality series. We’ve seen the “Thotiana” rapper and his partner’s father exchange blows. Also, the reality starlet’s brother appeared to give the couple advice about their often-aggressive relationship.

Rock and Blueface’s bickering has been the centre of several episodes. However, we’ve still seen his issues with his own family play out. This week, in particular, the 25-year-old comes face-to-face with his mother, Karlissa Saffold.

In one preview that’s been circulating online, the California native and his mom step outside to speak. He tells her that she carries herself with a lot of importance and that he loves her because of their familial relationship. Still, that’s not always enough.

“I feel like I’m more mature than you,” Blue tells Saffold in front of the cameras. “Love you, mother, but you just not my type of woman I guess. Not my type of lady.”

In another trailer, most of the 25-year-old’s family comes together to confront Rock and her man. Specifically, they feud about a physical altercation between the group that previously went viral.

“If you’re 50 with little kids outside, you’re going to get into some little kid shit,” Blueface explains to Saffold as she yells at him. In response, she says, “If you disrespect me, and you’re my son, Jonathan, I’m gonna slap the shit out of you every time! I am your mother!”

The recording artist and Rock look visibly uncomfortable from the other side of the room, though he says “I understand.” At the same time, his mother continues to yell about how they didn’t argue in the past with his sister also joining in.

“Crazy In Love”: Blueface Tells His Mom He’s More Mature Than Her

by

The weekend is upon us once again, which means it’s time for another episode of Crazy In Love. Whether you love Blueface and Chrisean Rock, or love to hate on them, the couple’s on-screen antics have been bringing undeniable entertainment to audiences all around the nation.

Last week, we heard the two get into a lover’s quarrel. The 25-year-old was insisting upon calling his partner by a derogatory name that upset her. “You call me a bitch all the time, bro,” the reality starlet whines to her man in front of the camera. In the previous episode, he clapped back, “Okay, and you are one. I’ll call you a bitch right now! ‘Cuz that’s what you are.”

In the same show, fans saw an appearance from Wack 100. He was quick to label Chrisean as a “distraction” for Blueface. In the time since, DJ Akademiks has also spoken out in agreeance – particularly after the 22-year-old admitted to hitting the rapper in the head with a glass cup earlier this month.

On this week’s edition of Crazy In Love, it looks like we may get a break from the couple’s incessant bickering. Instead, the latest previews show the “Thotiana” artist preparing his other half to see his family. He even gets brutally honest with his mother in one of the circulating clips.

“I don’t know why you think that you’re special,” Blueface tells Karlissa Saffold in a video posted to @theneighborhoodtalk. Sensing her immediate disappointment, he back tracks, saying, “You very special, don’t get it twisted. You my mom and everything.”

The family matriarch comes back at him with, “You just said you have no remorse, like I’m leaving here with that!” In response, he drops a bomb, telling the woman who raised him that he feels as though he’s “more mature than her.”

“Love you, mother, but you just not my type of woman I guess,” Blueface concludes. “Not my type of lady.”

The same clip then cuts to a conversation between Chrisean and her man’s sister, who were able to remain composed during their chat. When the rest of the family joined in though, things became physical.

Wack 100 Appears On “Crazy In Love,” Blueface Insists On Calling Chrisean Rock “Bitch”

by

Reality TV is specifically known for documenting the most interesting of couples, and Blueface and Chrisean Rock are no exception. In late 2022, Zeus premiered their Crazy In Love series, which follows the two entertainers through the countless ups and downs of their romantic relationship.

The first episode of the year markedly made its debut on Sunday (January 8). Onscreen, more drama between the “Thotiana” rapper and his partner played out as he took a trip to Las Vegas without her. At the same time, she decided to head over to Baltimore, which subsequently resulted in him blocking her number and apparently deleting a video of them together from his page.

Despite the chaos, Rock still tried to have a good time, stepping her “rich p*ssy” out on the town with a friend to take her mind off of things.

Elsewhere in the latest episode, the couple found themselves feuding over Blueface wanting to call the 22-year-old a “bitch.” In a clip posted to @theneighborhood talk, he tells her, “You not finna disrespect me for no reason.”

Cutting him off, Chrisean says, “You call me a bitch all the time, bro.” Immediately, the California native claps back, “Okay, and you are one. I’ll call you a bitch right now! ‘Cuz that’s what you are.”

As the bickering continues, she asks to be called by her first name. “Do you have a vagina?” Blue asks her. “My name is Chrisean,” she calmly responds.

“You wanna be a n*gga so bad. You wanna be a man so bad. I don’t wanna be with a man, I want to be with a bitch,” the 25-year-old explicitly tells her. “You call your friend and your friend call you bitch all day long. Why you get offended ‘cuz I said it?”

The argument then escalates to some yelling, at which point Blueface urges Rock to “find [herself].”

While that moment has certainly been making rounds on social media, Wack 100’s appearance in the episode also has people talking. During his stint on Crazy In Love, the music executive made it clear that he thinks Chrisean is “a distraction” to her beau.

Blueface & Chrisean Rock Get Real About Their Leaked Sex Tape

by

Chrisean Rock and Blueface’s relationship is full of undeniably chaotic moments – many of which are now seen on camera for their reality TV series, Crazy In Love. Airing every Sunday on Zeus, the unhinged series follows the tumultuous pair as they feud with each other and their family members, all in the name of money and “love.”

Only two episodes of the show have aired, but the drama has been so unimaginable that audiences couldn’t fathom what’s possibly coming next. Thankfully, we now have answers, and they’re certainly juicy, to say the least.

This week’s edition of Crazy In Love finds Rock and her rapper beau addressing their recent sex tape leak. As you may recall, a video of the pair being intimate came out shortly after the 22-year-old declared herself “single” back in October.

At the time, a video of Blueface in bed with another woman was making rounds. Obviously, Chrisean the clip of the “Thotiana” rapper upset Chrisean. After apparently trashing his hotel room, she began a juicy Instagram Live session.

“I almost went to jail, yo, I swear to God,” the entertainer told viewers. “I broke everything in my hotel room in front of that n*gga… The TV, the window… He had to run from that hotel to another.”

In the same Live, Rock showed footage of Blueface’s baby with Jaidyn Alexis. Additionally, she really stirred the pot by showing the world footage of her and the 25-year-old in the bedroom.

On Saturday (December 24), @theneighborhoodtalk uploaded a preview of this weekend’s Crazy In Love episode. As the starring couple gets pedicures at the nail salon, they discuss leaking the video as well as the following implications.

Blueface is obviously confused by Chrisean’s decision, even pointing out to her that now, more women than ever before are DMing him. She remained calm and collected, letting him know that her hotline is also blinging just as frequently.

Chrisean Rock & Blueface Fight About Their Relationship Status On “Crazy In Love”

by

The third episode of Zeus’ Crazy In Love is quickly approaching. Those who have tuned into the show so far are curious as to what will happen next. In the premiere, Blueface was hit by his girlfriend, Chrisean Rock’s father. By next Sunday, though, he got his lick back – but not before he was additionally confronted by his partner’s older brother.

Aside from the physical fighting, we’ve also seen the usual bickering between the famous couple. Even before they were given a reality TV show, their fights were (and still are) frequently broadcast on Instagram Live. In this week’s edition of the series, it looks as though there’s only more squabbling to come.

According to a preview uploaded to @theneighborhoodtalk, Rock and the “Thotiana” rapper are having issues agreeing upon the status of their relationship.

As they sit in the nail salon, Blueface asks her, “What is the status of our relationship right now?” The entertainer quickly claps back, “Why are you asking me?” He responds, “Last time I checked, you was single.” The aggravated look left on her face after speaks volumes.

The camera then cuts to a glam session where Rock vents about her feelings. “I love him and I want to be together, but he got to figure out his life. I got n*ggas right now wanting to be my n*gga.”

As the scene shifts again, we see the Crazy In Love couple sharing a moment of affection in the house. The “Thotiana” rapper adjusts Chrisean’s hair while gazing at her lovingly. Immediately after we see her speaking with another man, saying, “I don’t know why he expects me to stay here,” seemingly speaking on the trajectory of her career.

Of course, the drama only gets more intense as Rock discovers that Blueface took a trip to Las Vegas without her. Immediately she expresses that he’s not there to gamble, but rather, to sleep with other women. This sparks a major rift between the two, with the “Rainy Days” artist sobbing in bed as she cusses her man out.

As if that weren’t already enough, the same episode will also see Rock deal with a stressful court case. In the new trailer, it sounds like she could face some serious legal trouble if things don’t go her way.
