Jada Pinkett Smith will officially be bringing her series, Red Table Talk, back in 2024. The actress confirmed the news during a live stream on TalkShopLive. The news comes following the release of her new memoir, Worthy, which has brought with it several headline-grabbing stories about her relationship with Will Smith.

“The Red Table is coming back. We are in the works of a situation right now. So next year,” Jada Pinkett Smith said. “We could not do the red table while I was writing this book and while Willow was on her music journey.”

Jada previously expressed confidence in the return of Red Table Talk while speaking with PEOPLE back in June. At the time, she confirmed several platforms had reached out about publishing the series. “We’ve had a couple platforms reach out to us,” Smith revealed. “And we have some interesting avenues that we’re looking at now. You know me, I’m always looking for the next innovative thing. Actually, there’s one idea that we have in mind that I’m kind of excited about that will probably be happening, maybe, close to the release of the book. We’ve got some really interesting stuff happening with [Red Table Talk]. I’m excited about that journey as well.”

Red Table Talk previously aired on Facebook Watch, beginning in May 2018. It ran there for five seasons. Jada has hosted numerous celebrities on the show over those years. In addition to members of her own family, she’s also spoken with Gabrielle Union, Tiffany Haddish, Kid Cudi, Wale, Jordyn Woods, Common, T.I., Snoop Dogg, Lauren London, Ice Cube, Bobby Brown, Kevin Hart, Queen Latifah, Fat Joe, and many more.

Diddy Nearly Fought Will & Jada Pinkett Smith For Flirting With Jennifer Lopez, Body Guard Claims

Diddy’s former bodyguard, Gene Deal, says that the Bad Boy founder once nearly came to blows with Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith. Speaking with The Art of Dialogue, Deal explained that the couple had “made advances” on Diddy’s then-girlfriend, Jennifer Lopez. He also joked that Will would mostly likely “beat the shit” out of Diddy, although he did admit the music industry mogul can “scrap.”

“We were at a birthday party that I think Matt Damon was giving for Ben Affleck. It was just a little gathering at the Four Seasons,” Deal began. “Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, Jennifer Lopez, Puff, Will Smith and Jada were sitting on [one] side of the room.”

“[Puff] stood up. And when he stood up, he walked and did his arms a certain kind of way like [crossing them]. I go over towards him and he said to me, ‘Yo, I think Will and Jada are trying to scoop up Jennifer. I want you to stay close ’cause I’ma snuff him.’” Deal added that he found the entire situation funny and even hoped Will would get a few good shots in on Diddy: “I could move slow enough that Will could probably get two or three punches back in,” he remembered thinking, “That shit was funny. He thought that Jada and Will were coming on too strong to Jennifer, making advances.” Check out Deal’s full comments on working with Diddy below.

Dr Umar Takes Aim At Jada Pinkett Smith In New Rant

Starting last week, there’s been a LOT of discussion around Jada Pinkett Smith and Will Smith. It all started when she confessed that they had been essentially separated since 2016. She described them as living “completely separate lives” across the last few years and it erupted from there. During the same interview, she claimed that Chris Rock, victim of the legendary Oscar’s slap, asked her out during a period of time where divorce rumors were swirling.

That’s the context for a viral new rant that Dr. Umar went on. In the video, he has a number of critiques of Jada’s body that he sees as reasons why her stories aren’t true. Fortunately, plenty of fans flocked to the comments to stand up for her. “Lmaaaao now Dr. Umar, you shaped like Dora’s backpack, be quiet!” one of the top comments reads. “We not gon sit here n act like this woman didn’t have these men groveling at her feet back in the day. If anything we gon be fr now,” another agrees. Check out the full video of the rant and the various fan reactions below.

Part of the reason so much has emerged recently is Jada promoting her new book. She also shared plenty of details about her relationship with Tupac. She described him as her soulmate and claimed that he once proposed to her while he was in prison but she turned him down.

For his part, Will Smith doesn’t seem to be bothered by any of the revelations. He took to Instagram to share a video of himself taking a nap on a boat while ignoring the notifications from his phone.

Halle Bailey’s Oversized Outfit During Walk With DDG Has Fans Insisting She’s Expecting

Cuffing season has a habit of bringing about new romance, but in 2023, it appears pregnancy is running rampant in the air too. Ari Fletcher recently suggested that baby fever has her in a chokehold, and Sexyy Red shocked us by confirming that she’s expecting her second child. For months now, another young starlet has had maternal rumours swirling around her, though her failure to confirm the speculation has maintained some doubt. After the newest photos of Halle Bailey and DDG hit the internet today (October 16), however, it’s becoming less believable that the Disney actress isn’t pregnant.

Newly captured paparazzi photos show Bailey and her other half in Santa Monica this week. Despite the warm weather overtaking the city well into fall, Bailey was notably dressed in multiple layers. She put a red t-shirt under an oversized, dark hoodie, completing her casual fit with light grey sweatpants. The Atlanta native has always had a slim frame, but it’s hard to deny the appearance of a growing bump on her midsection. Bailey was all smiles as the camera clicked away, looking as radiant as ever while reportedly heading into a meeting.

“It doesn’t get much more pregnant than this 🤣,” one IG user wrote under @theshaderoom’s post this afternoon. “I can hear them YT folk now 🙄. ‘This is the example we’re showing our kids?’ ‘Disney princess pregnant out of wedlock?’ ‘This is the Ariel y’all promoting to young girls?’ And guess what????🗣WE DON’T CARE!!! At least DDG ain’t her cousin 😑,” another frustrated person chimed in.

Blueface & Jaidyn Alexis On “The Jason Lee Show”: Rapper Says Being Gay Is A Choice

Since Jason Lee first confirmed that the guests joining him for the debut episode of his Revolt podcast’s second season are Blueface and Jaidyn Alexis, we’ve been eager to hear what the controversial couple will have to tell the host. On Monday (October 16), Lee unveiled a preview of just some of the drama viewers will see unfold later this week, including a hot take from the “Thotiana” rapper about the LGBTQ+ community.

Earlier this year, Blue found himself under fire for asking his 5-year-old son, Javaughn, if he’s gay for choosing to avoid the grown strippers who were hanging out in his family home. The situation was public on Instagram and left many feeling discomfort, so naturally, Lee had to inquire about it. “Being gay is a choice,” the California-based recording artist declared. “Not for some people,” the Hollywood Unlocked CEO shot back.

Elsewhere in the brief teaser of what’s to come, Alexis seemingly tells the story of her catching Blue in bed with another woman. Elsewhere, we hear piping hot confessions about other socialites and stars that the father of three may have hooked up with over the years. The audio version of The Jason Lee Show will hit streamers on Tuesday. However, what we’re really waiting for is the YouTube video cut, which lands on Wednesday (October 18).

Jason Lee’s fans are happy to see that his internet show is returning for its second season this week. Still, that doesn’t mean they’re not concerned about the blogger’s beef with Nicki Minaj. This time last month the pair was trading shots online amid Kenneth Petty’s beef with Offset, at which time Lee made it clear that he welcomes a lawsuit from the Queen of Rap should she choose to come after him. Read more about that at the link below, and check back in tomorrow to hear Blueface and Jaidyn Alexis’ full interview.

Jada Pinkett Smith Wants Will Smith & Her To Heal & Get Closer After Revelations

Despite all the drama and discussion around her upcoming memoir Worthy, Jada Pinkett Smith seems like she’s already looking to the future. Moreover, she recently joined The Today Show on Monday morning (October 16) and spoke to Hoda Kotb about her relationship with Will Smith. What’s more is that the actor even posted a hilarious and cheeky response to all this on Instagram. His latest post is captioned “Notifications off :),” and shows him taking a nap on a boat amid a flurry of notifications. The message is clear: the 55-year-old is not letting any of this gossip and heated debate get to his head, and his wife even commented on it with some laughing emojis.

Jokes aside, we actually did get his first public response to all this thanks to an email sent to The New York Times. During their interview with Jada Pinkett Smith, they said that her memoir “kind of woke [Will Smith] up,” or rather, that said feeling is how he would describe it. “She had lived a life more on the edge than he’d realized. She is more resilient, clever and compassionate than he’d understood,” they paraphrased his thoughts on the matter, and later directly quoted him. “When you’ve been with someone for more than half of your life, a sort of emotional blindness sets in. You can all too easily lose your sensitivity to their hidden nuances and subtle beauties,” the Philly native expressed. As such, it seems like she has his full support, and that the couple is sticking together amid all this.

With this in mind, for this new Today interview, Jada Pinkett Smith spoke on what she wants her future with Will Smith to be like. “There’s no finding another great love, and I think that’s the point,” the Baltimore native shared “It’s like we are in a place now that we are in a deep, healing space. And we are really concentrating on healing the relationship between us. There’s no divorce on paper. We really have been working hard. That’s the whole thing. We are working very hard at bringing our relationship together. Back to a life partnership.

“Here’s the thing about husband-wife marriage for me, for my healing process,” she continued. “I came into that with very specific ideas that were blocks to me seeing Will as who he is. He can’t be this perfect, ideal guy husband. I have to be able to accept him for the human that he is, he accepts me for the human that I am. And we want to love each other there.” She thinks that this memoir experience has brought them even closer together, and only brought things publicly now because they needed time to figure out who they were and what they wanted to be. For more news and updates on Jada Pinkett and Will Smith, stay posted on HNHH.

Erica Dixon & Lil Scrappy Are “Cool” Following Hawaii Visit, She Reveals

Love & Hip Hop alumni Erica Dixon and Lil Scrappy have a pretty contentious and complicated relationship history. They share a child together, Emani, and have often scrapped on social media and on air, letting the world know of their partnership struggles. However, it’s been a long time since the two were involved romantically in any way, and that time and space has apparently led to some healing. Many started to doubt their status, though, when they were spotted in Hawaii together with friends, seemingly for Dixon’s birthday. Moreover, she took to Instagram Live to provide viewers with an update on their status and how they are handling the co-parenting and general coexistence life.

“Me and Emani’s father are cool,” Erica Dixon’s Instagram Live remarks about Lil Scrappy began. “We are family, we’re in a good space. Some of y’all be some weirdos. Like, I’m big on accountability moving forward. I ultimately have to have a relationship and deal with him forever because we do share a child. Emani’s gonna get married one day, have kids, and then we gon’ share a grandchild.

“Like, we just gon’ forever be family,” Erica Dixon continued. “I mean, some people get it, some people don’t. I think we’re just both in a place where we just want peace. But he single, you know, if y’all wanna holler at him, show up in his DM! I’m learning as I continue to travel and just experience different cultures. Our culture, we hate each other and hold on to just anger and resentment the most, and that’s why we don’t prosper at all.” Given that she was seemingly sitting poolside waiting on drinks with her friends, it seems like she’s taking this peace to heart on vacation.

Meanwhile, the messiest parts of the couple’s relationship are more about the people they dated after they split. For example Erica Dixon and Bambi had a pretty nasty feud at one point, for which the latter apologized. As such, hopefully these reconciliations and peaceful resolutions become a trend moving forward. For the latest news and updates on Erica Dixon and Lil Scrappy, stay logged into HNHH.

Jaidyn Alexis & Blueface Channel “The Proud Family” With Their Little Ones For Halloween

Blueface and Jaidyn Alexis haven’t always seen eye to eye, but now more than ever, the MILF Music creatives are working together to secure their family’s legacy. They’ve been steadily releasing singles to help grow the mother of two’s fanbase. At the same time, their romantic connection looks to be getting stronger too. After Chrisean Rock gave birth to her first child with Blue last month, we saw a brief reconciliation between those two. However, more dramatic antics proved that the co-parents couldn’t work through their issues, sending the Californian back to torment Alexis.

As we move closer to Halloween, she and Blue are sharing their joint costume with the world earlier than anticipated. While the 26-year-old solidified his status as head of the household by dressing as Oscar Proud, the patriarch of Disney’s The Proud Family, his other half raised some eyebrows by going as his wife, Trudy, who’s a Black woman. Seeing as Alexis’ background doesn’t align with the character she’s cosplaying, it’s no surprise that people were stepping on her neck over the decision.

Their two young children, Javaugn and Journey, got in on the fun too. While the youngest wore a cute red dress and her hair in pigtails like Penny Proud, Blue’s son went as Sticky Webb. The moody character famously wore monochrome outfits and sunglasses in the animated series, which his parents managed to help him recreate flawlessly.

Despite his attempts at trying to keep the peace, Blueface always seems to be caught up in some sort of drama thanks to the numerous women in his life. Most recently, it’s been his mother, Karlissa Saffold, who’s causing a stir online due to her leaked booty picture. Read what the “Thotiana” rapper had to say about that uncomfortable situation at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Travis Kelce Cheers On His Brother Jason Solo, Goes On Date With Taylor Swift Before Game

The superstar couple of Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift is back being seen in public. Boy oh boy did they have a fun weekend together. HNHH reported yesterday about their surprise appearances on SNL after the massive writer’s strike. It was the season 49 premiere, in fact, according to PageSix. Both stars were feeling a little extra lovey touching and smooching after their cameos. On top of Travis showing off his comedic chops during a skit with the NFL trying to not talk about Taylor, both of them went on a dinner date.

It was at the famous Nobu restaurant and Travis and Taylor were dressed semi-casual but killed their outfits. You can see in the picture above that the Chiefs tight-end is rocking a more monochromatic look. He rocked all tan and a sprinkling of white in the shirt and shoes. On the other hand, Swift opted for a black leather skirt and a floral top. However, you would think the blissful night would end with the two at the Eagles versus Jets game. But, according to TMZ Sports, it did not.

Travis made sure to pull up though. For casual fans, it is just another game in the regular season. But, Travis knew the meaning this game had for his brother, Jason. The longtime All-Pro Eagles center made history for the franchise. He now holds the record for the most consecutive starts in the team’s existence. Travis remained fairly low-key sitting near the sidelines to cheer on his brother. However, the most asked question will be, “Where was Taylor?”

What are your initial thoughts on Travis Kelce attending the Philadelphia Eagles game solo to support his brother Jason? Why do you think Taylor Swift did not show up to it? From the outside looking in, do you believe their relationship is going well? We would like to hear what you have to say about all of this. With that in mind, be sure to leave all of your thoughts and opinions in the comments section below.

Jada Pinkett Smith Recalls Jaden Smith Introducing Her To Ayahuasca

Jada Pinkett Smith says that her son, Jaden Smith, put her on to ayahuasca which “opened up a whole new world of healing.” Speaking with PEOPLE for a new interview amid the release of her memoir, Worthy, Jada explained that she overheard Jaden and his friends discussing the positive benefits of ayahuasca.

“When Jaden came to me that day and he’s like, ‘Mom, you got to hear this. My friend’s dad, he had this experience. I need you to come in here and listen.’ I’m like, ‘I’m there. What is it?’” she recalled. From there, she revealed that the ayahuasca experience “opened up a whole new world of healing,” which she is “so grateful for.”

Prior to using ayahuasca, Jada says she was struggling with her mental health. “While I was really living the dream, I hit a huge wall — a massive amount of depression,” she explained. “I think that I looked at having outside sources to supplement for the voids that I was feeling inside.” At points, she even battled with thoughts of suicide. “I started looking for places, cliffs where I could have an accident, because I didn’t want my kids to think that their mother had committed suicide,” she said.
