Jeff Bezos, Amazon Founder And Billionaire, Is Officially Engaged

by

Jeff Bezos keeps plenty busy, but he’s not too busy to find love. TMZ has confirmed that Jeff Bezos and girlfriend Lauren Sanchez are engaged. The billionaire proposed to Sanchez while they were enjoying a luxurious voyage around Europe on his impressive $500 million superyacht. It comes as no surprise that Sanchez said “Yes” to Bezos’ proposal. The couple has been inseparable since they began dating in 2019. Their relationship began shortly after Bezos’ divorce from his wife of 24 years, MacKenzie.

Bezos seems to have spared no expense on the engagement ring, which was proudly displayed by Sanchez aboard the yacht. The size of the rock on her finger is truly impressive. The cost of the engagement ring would be significant to most people. However, it is merely a small portion of Bezos’ vast fortune as the founder of Amazon. Interestingly, it appears that the engagement actually took place last week. Sanchez was spotted wearing a ring on her finger in a photograph from Wednesday. At the time, however, the large gemstone was cleverly hidden on the inside of her hand.

Bezos Wants To Give Away Most Of His Wealth

Jeff Bezos may be one of the richest people on earth, but he doesn’t intend for things to stay that way. In fact, he plans to donate most of his wealth during his lifetime. According to reports, the Amazon founder’s net worth is estimated to be between $121 billion and $124 billion. In an interview with CNN’s Chloe Melas at his residence in Washington, DC, Bezos expressed his intention to utilize his wealth in the fight against climate change and to aid individuals who can contribute to the unification of humanity. However, Bezos did not disclose a specific percentage or provide concrete details regarding the manner in which he plans to distribute his funds. That doesn’t mean he plans to stop making money, of course.

For quite some time, there were rumors connecting Jeff Bezosto the potential purchase of the Commanders. He is the third-wealthiest individual globally and a resident of Washington, D.C. As such, Bezos has been seen as a possible bidder for the team. However, controversy arose when sources alleged that the Synders, the current owners of the team, had prevented Bezos from making a bid. The Synders have denied these claims. However, in mid-April, Bezos was confirmed to no longer be in the running. Days later, the team was purchased by Josh Harris. Stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news on hip-hop, tech, and more!

by

Rapper Kodak Black is seen in a recent clip alongside Maranda Johnson, the mother to one of his children. The clip, showing the rapper getting handsy with Johnson, was posted to The Shade Room’s Instagram, leading to various responses from fans. One user writes, “Awwww idk he seems like a romantic person.” Other commenters noted that Johnson seemed less than thrilled with the rapper, with one writing alongside laughing emojis, “Her facial expressions are LOUD she is beautiful though!!”

The couple also had a baby shower in December of 2021, and a clip from the event led to rumors that the pair were engaged.

After Johnson discovered she was pregnant in April of 2021, Kodak Black’s lawyer shared that the two were expecting a baby girl in September of that year. News of Kodak Black and Johnson’s pregnancy followed rumors that the rapper was also engaged to his ex Mellow Rackz in February of 2021. She uploaded a series of videos to Instagram with her then-partner, where he asks her to marry him. He’s seen holding a diamond ring in the video.

Halle Bailey On Dating DDG: “I Have To Step Away From [Social Media] & Live In The Real World”

by

Just like her character in The Little Mermaid, Halle Bailey prefers to live in the real world. In a recent interview ahead of the film’s premiere next week, the Atlanta-born artist spoke candidly about her relationship with DDG, and how constantly being bombarded with the opinions of strangers on social media can be troubling to her. Rather than doom-scroll through all the drama, Bailey prefers to log off and spend time focusing on the things in front of her.

“The biggest thing I’ve learned in dating when it comes to dating in the public eye, is that everybody’s gonna have an opinion about you, whether it’s good or bad” she reflected. “I’ve had this since I was younger. I think because I’ve grown up, kind of in the public eye, people think they have this sort of… I don’t know, that they can say what they feel about my life. Like they do with everyone in the public eye,” the 23-year-old further explained. “But I’ve realized, for me, I just go with my heart.”

Halle Bailey Discusses DDG Relationship

The “Do It” hitmaker’s approach to life is to follow her heart, and “cherish what makes [her] happy.” One way that she’s able to do that and keep her mindset in a positive space is by taking breaks from being online. “It’s hard when you’re in the public eye because social media is also a part of your work, it’s a big part of what I do! I have to set healthy boundaries for myself, ‘cuz just like anyone, if you see all these people saying whatever they want about you, your life, what you choose to decide… That could take a toll on anyone, so I just have to choose to step aside and not look at any of that.”

“Just live in the real world,” the Disney starlet added. “That’s what makes me happy.” Do you ship Halle Bailey and DDG as a couple? Let us know in the comments, and tap back in with HNHH later for more music/pop culture news updates.

Shy Glizzy Allegedly Threatened To Kill His Ex-Girlfriend

by

Model Amaya Colon, ex-girlfriend of D.C. rapper Shy Glizzy, has made some serious claims about his behavior in her request for a restraining order. Colon alleges that Glizzy has been making threats against her and her family ever since their breakup. She told the judge Glizzy threatened to kill her, sending her a text saying, “Ima f*** ya life up.” According to Colon, the two of them started dating at the end of last year. She cites Glizzy’s “anger issues” as the reason for their April split. In court documents, Colon alleges that Glizzy followed her while she was driving in Los Angeles. She claims that after stopping at a red light, Glizzy approached her and began to bang on her car with a gun. After driving away, she says Glizzy continued following her, trying to run her off the road, and causing a collision.

He was arrested only weeks after their breakup for allegedly threatening the model. The arrest took place on May 13, when Colon claims Glizzy pulled a gun and made threats towards her on a public street in West Hollywood. The rapper reportedly “took off” after the incident, and police were able to track him down later that day. He was arrested on a felony charge of making criminal threats, and released after four hours on a bond of $50,000. Glizzy denied the charges, and police did not find a gun on him during the arrest. A video of the rapper’s detainment appeared online shortly after the incident. The video shows police surrounding Glizzy and his manager at gunpoint.

Shy Glizzy’s Arrest

Shy Glizzy claimed that he’s innocent of all accusations made against him earlier this week on Instagram. He shared an Instagram Story where he says, “The accusations made against me are completely false.” He went on to claim, “I would never in my life pull a weapon or harm a female in any way so stop with the BS allegations!” The rapper then asked, “What is wrong with ppl?”

Earlier this year, OnlyFans creator Sky Bri appeared in an interview with No Jumper, where she accused Shy Glizzy of sexual misconduct. She claimed that during a music video shoot, Glizzy made her take an unknown pill. She also accused him of trying to force her to perform oral sex on him. His associate, Ant Glizzy, later responded to Bri’s claims in an Instagram Live. He said, “I told y’all he spikes [women’s drinks].” Adding, “He been doing this shit for 15 years on GQ. Like, any girl that ever drunk with the Glizzy Gang at a club or at a table, you was extra drunk. All you gotta do is ask him.”

Kevin Gates Talks Splitting Finances, Calls Wealth “Of The Heart” His Priority

by

Rapper Kevin Gates recently took to Instagram to share his thoughts surrounding splitting finances in relationships. In the Instagram Live hosted by Gates, a viewer asked to hear his thoughts on her “going 50/50 with [her] man.” Gates responded by sharing his personal experience, saying that he has been with a woman who was able to provide him with something money can’t buy.

The rapper begins, “I have been in a relationship where the woman provided me intangible wealth.” He elaborated, saying there “was no amount of money that could pay for” what she gave him. “[The woman] did everything to make [his life] peaceful and it motivated [him] and allowed [him] to focus and make more money,” Gates explained. About the relationship, he says “50/50 wasn’t half of the rent, but she provided a place of peace to me in order to reach my highest potential.” He cites, “different types of wealth,” saying he doesn’t “look at wealth as something that’s of the pocket.” The rapper claims he looks at it instead as “of the heart and of the mind.”

Following Gates’ story, a viewer commented, “Especially if she’s the mother of your kid.” He responded, “I’m gonna be honest with you, all my children’s mothers is good.” The rapper additionally discussed “hearing dudes talk about baby mama drama.” He says that it’s not something he personally deals with. “I dont have that problem,” the rapper shares. “I don’t have no bad relationships with none of my children’s mothers,” he revealed. Gates went on to say that, “They all love me and support me,” calling himself “very very blessed and fortunate.”

In April, Gates also shared in an interview that he prefers hunting for his own meat over buying it at the grocery store. He added that his love for hunting is also good for his mental health. “It takes pure focus. It’s almost like meditation,” the rapper shared. He added, “You got to be in sync with it.” Gates then went on to explain his appreciation and respect for the animals he hunts. “I know I’m not going to get instant results,” he shares. “I know I got to put work in… to cultivate it and develop it.”

Finesse2tymes And His 3 Girlfriends Post Up Together: Photos

by

Modern dating is messier than it ever has been in decades past, with more and more people leaning towards options like non-monogamy and polyamory. After his failed relationship with Erica Banks, that seems to be the move for Finesse2tymes, who revealed in a recent interview that he’s in a relationship with three different women. “I gotta have more than one woman,” he told Angela Yee on Lip Service a few weeks back. “I know that one of ’em, or two of ’em, they get along, I kinda just threw it at them. Like this is what it is,” the southern star further added of how his situation came to be.

While many social media users have made it clear that they don’t approve, Finesse continues to do him regardless. On Sunday (May 14), his Instagram feed lit up with a photo dump showing off the women in his life, along with some words of wisdom. “Chocolate, Caramel, or Red, long as she ’bout that bread,” the “How to Act” hitmaker wrote in his caption, making it clear that his type is a lady who knows a thing or two about making money moves.

The first image shows Finesse posing by himself in a grey and beige outfit, a white styrofoam cup in his hand. Immediately afterward he introduces us to his collection of curvaceous lovers, all three happily standing by their shared man for a series of snapshots. To end his post, the 30-year-old gave his followers a lesson on mastering “the art of timing.” “Never seem to be in a hurry,” the screenshot he shared begins.

“Hurrying betrays a lack of control over yourself, and over time. Always seem patient, as if you know that everything will come to you eventually. Become a detective of the right moment; sniff out the spirit of the times, the trends that will carry you to power. Learn to stand back when the time is not yet ripe, and to strike fiercely when it has reached fruition.” What are your thoughts on Finesse2tymes’ polyamorous relationship?

ILOVEMAKONNEN Reflects On Drake Relationship Turning Sour

by

“Tuesday” is one of hip-hop’s most beloved “one-hit wonder” tracks of the 2010s, brought to us by ILOVEMAKONNEN and Drake. Despite the song’s massive success, though, the Los Angeles native recently remarked to NPR Music during an interview how their relationship took a nasty turn. Of course, this isn’t the first time that he’s spoken on this issue, and he actually took some different turns back then compared to his current stance. Still, it’s quite unfortunate if true, considering he left OVO less than two years after signing a record deal. Apparently nothing was the same after the 2015 Wireless Festival.

“That’s when I knew something was weird,” ILOVEMAKONNEN told the outlet. “Just ’cause when I came out on set- and I started losing weight too, right- Drake had made a little joke like, ‘He a little Eric Benét-a** looking n***a.’ You know, like, ha-ha. And then I just started to feel this vibe. As I was supposed to go into my verse [on stage], they just cut it.” Also, he shared that their issues didn’t stem from Makonnen’s sexuality, which many thought had rubbed the Canadian superstar the wrong way.

ILOVEMAKONNEN Pinpoints Where Drake Relationship Soured In NPR Music Convo

In fact, the “SCUSE ME” artist claimed that past tweets of his dissing Drake was what threw a wrench into their camaraderie. “‘Y’all need to drop him because he said your song ‘Practice’ was lame back in 2011,’” ILOVEMAKONNEN remembered one fan writing on social media. “[It’s] our little outlet,” he shared while explaining that he meant no ill will. “That’s our only way of attention. It ain’t nothing personal.” Later on during his NPR Music interview, he theorized that things really solidified themselves into a falling out when he referenced the rumored beef during a Tim Westwood freestyle.

To make matters worse, the 34-year-old spit those bars over Drake instrumentals, putting things further into context. However, back in 2019, he stated that things were “all good” between him and OVO, so maybe this is just him reflecting on water under the bridge. Regardless, it’s a shame that this resulted from misinterpretation, Internet egging, and most importantly making jokes at another’s expense. For the latest news on Drake and ILOVEMAKONNEN, log back into HNHH.

Bhad Bhabie Rants About Chief Keef On Twitter

by

Bhad Bhabie has taken to Twitter to rant about something once again. This time, it’s about her relationship with her former beau Chief Keef. Back in February, Bhabie took to Twitter to express her love for Chief Keef. Some of her tweets about him remain on her page. She asked fans to tell Keef that she is sorry and loves him, adding a teary-eyed emoji. She also said that he hates her, but it’s okay because she will be back, and added a kissing emoji. However, some outlets reported that she had also tweeted that Chief Keef is the only person she will ever love.

Just last week, Bhad Bhabie spoke further about the relationship. In an interview with Emily Ratajkowski, she confessed that she has five or six tattoos dedicated to Keef. “I have one guy that managed to make it six times, five or six,” she said. The guy she is referring to is, of course, Chief Keef. “So, I have Chief Keef’s birthday, his last name, his name, his nickname, and I have ‘CK’ on my ankle, then I have his last name right here,” Bhabie revealed. “Actually, I just covered his birthday, and then I have ‘So’ on my ear, and then I have ‘Keef’ on my wrist.”

Bhad Bhabie Has Had Enough

Bhad Bhabie and Chief Keef may not be together anymore, but that doesn’t mean she’s going to let people slander his name. In response to many pointing out that they thought that Keef “groomed” her and was a pedophile, she took to Twitter to dispel the rumors. “Calling someone a pedophile isn’t something you just say to troll or talk sh*t. It’s disrespectful [as f*ck],” she said in his defense. “I can’t stand the [motherf*cker] but I’m not the type of person to let someone’s name [be] ruined with lies. Dead that sh*t.”

In an Instagram post about the rant by The Shade Room, many people seemed to disagree with Bhabie’s assessment of the situation. “20 is the new 16 baby,” said one commenter. “You was fresh outta high school he could have had his master’s in 2 different fields.” Others chimed in to agree. “Girl you was definitely under 18 [f*cking with] sosa like bye,” said another comment. Many of those who commented pointed out that Bhad Bhabie was about 15 when she met Chief Keef. What do you think about the situation? Is Bhabie in the right here? Sound off in the comments!

Bhad Bhabie Has Six Chief Keef Tattoos

by

Bhad Bhabie and Chief Keef apparently had an unofficial fling going on, and she just dished some interesting info about it. Moreover, she recently appeared on the High Low with EmRata podcast with Emily Ratajkowski on Tuesday (April 25). Not only did Bhabie go into her experience a bit, but she also revealed that she has six Sosa-inspired tattoos at the moment. Of course, this isn’t the first time that the teen star-turned-rapper spoke on their relationship, even if she didn’t explicitly label it back then. Still, it seems things changed a lot since then, because she mentioned wanting to remove the ink one day.

“I have one guy that managed to make it six times, five or six,” Bhad Bhabie told Ratajkowski when asked about having all her exes as body art. “So, I have Chief Keef’s birthday, his last name, his name, his nickname, and I have ‘CK’ on my ankle, then I have his last name right here. Actually, I just covered his birthday, and then I have ‘So’ on my ear, and then I have ‘Keef’ on my wrist.” However, the Florida native said that she’s “sick of his s**t,” which is why she covered his birthday.

Bhad Bhabie Wants To Remove Her Six Chief Keef Tattoos

“I’m getting them removed, I’m just tired of being delusional. I’m so over it,” she continued. Later, the 20-year-old reflected on a conversation with a friend, who told her things will be better one day. “It’s been a long run,” she said before confirming that they were done. “But I would say we were pretty close. But it was like, I don’t know, I’ve known him for a minute.” Elsewhere in the conversation, she expressed regret and revealed that she was 18 when they started seeing each other.

Despite the bad blood, the “Hi Bich” rapper maintained that felt very close with Sosa. Unfortunately, it seems like their fling was unfruitful at the end of the day. Regardless of any issues they might have had, at least Bhabie looks ready to move on at this point. On that note, if you want more updates on Chief Keef and Bhad Bhabie, stay logged into HNHH.

Chris Brown Posts Up With His Three Kids

by

Chris Brown just warmed fans’ hearts with a picture of him and his three children: daughter Royalty, 8, son Aeko Catori, 3, and daughter Lovely Symphani, 1. Moreover, the children laid in Brown’s arms as he put on a goofy smile for the snap, and people gushed over their cuteness. Of course, this pic came amid the R&B star’s continued presence in the headlines for many more reasons. For example, many fans took note of his lewd and provocative choreography at Rolling Loud Thailand, which got fans either feeling sweaty or slightly uncomfortable.

However, a lot of discussion around Brown these days centered around his controversial collaborations, as well. One of these was “Freaky Friday” with Lil Dicky, who remarked on the race-swapping concept of the track and reckoning with Brown’s history of abuse. As a big fan of the “Yeah 3x” singer, Dave said that he felt touched by Brown giving him props, and said that song opened many doors for him. Also, he said that he “knows his heart is good” at the end of the day, referring to people criticizing him for working with a past abuser.

Chris Brown With His Kids

In addition, Chlöe addressed her fans’ backlash to her collab with Chris Brown for similar reasons. She remarked in a podcast interview that she “always just [wants to] let the music speak for itself. And to be honest, no matter what I do, people always find things to say about it, so I’m used to it. I just choose to ignore it. People have every right to their opinions, freedom of speech, and it’s up to me to choose what I give my attention and energy to. Everything I’m doing is ordained by God, and I’m walking in my purpose, and anybody who has a problem with that can kiss my booty.”

Meanwhile, the 33-year-old just let fans know that another collaboration is on the way, this time with Ciara. “ME AND @ciara got some [fire] coming,” he shared to Instagram. Time will tell whether reception to it differs from those recent examples. No matter what side of that debate you fall on, at least it seems like his children are by his side. Regardless, stick around on HNHH for the latest news and updates on Chris Brown.
