Nelly & Ashanti Give Usher A Run For His Money In Adorable New Singing Video

by

Every time we see footage of Nelly and Ashanti together, the reconciled couple looks more happy than the last. After parting ways a decade ago, the recording artists found their way back into each other’s lives earlier this year, and have virtually been inseparable ever since. Both fans and fellow celebrities have been urging Nelly to put a ring on Ashanti’s finger to prevent them from splitting up again, but it seems both lovers are down to take things “Nice & Slow” this time around.

On Monday (August 7), an adorable video of them singing along to Usher’s 1997 hit began making rounds online. “I just wanna take it nice and slow,” they belt out in unison between giggles, the happiness radiating from both Nelly and Ashanti’s smiles. “@Usher we on my bro s**t,” the 48-year-old wrote on the clip before sharing it on his Instagram Story for the world to see.

Nelly and Ashanti Have Taken Their Love “Nice & Slow”

So far this summer, we’ve seen plenty of the “Always On Time” collaborator and her beau outside together. On practically every stage they’ve taken over, there have been several moments of PDA that have left audiences blushing, and their matching outfits at the annual QC Music Black Ball definitely got the internet talking. While they haven’t expressed any plans to clear the knot, it’s clear that Ashanti and Nelly are one couple that we’re not mad at for spinning the block.

Elsewhere in the world of music, Nelly is getting his flowers from Memphis rapper NLE Choppa, who reimagined the former’s “Hot in Herre” hit single earlier this summer. The song has received mixed reviews from listeners on social media, but still, it’s nice to see the R&B crooner being recognized for his past efforts. Tap into “It’s Getting Hot” at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Rita Ora Proposed To Taika Waititi

by

In a recent interview with Vogue, Taika Waititi and Rita Ora shared some new details of their low-key wedding, as well as their nontraditional engagement. According to the filmmaker, his songstress wife turned the tables on her now-husband, proposing to him instead of the other way around. As one does when Rita Ora proposes to them, he claims that he agreed right away.

“She proposed to me, and I said ‘yes’ instantly,” the New Zealander explained. He also shared that Ora popped the question only a couple of weeks before they officially tied the knot. It all went down in the summer of 2022, during their vacation together in Palm Springs. They then went on to hold a very small ceremony at their LA home in August of that year. “There were about eight people there — just close friends and family, and parents on Zoom,” Waititi recalled.

The pair also shared some never-before-seen photos from their wedding day with the outlet. “I wore my mum’s pearls that she got married in,” Ora explained. “My sister walked me down the aisle, and it was just really simple and blissful and calm and private and fun.” She went on to reveal that her and her husband have had a blast with fans’ speculation. “It’s actually been quite entertaining for us to see the different stories people made up and all the while getting to keep it to ourselves,” she says. “And, I love that we now get to share what really happened—and to do it on our one-year anniversary, no less.” The couple seemed to appreciate the perks of their understated ceremony, as weddings are known to be pretty stressful.

“Yeah, it was beautiful,” Taika says. “Just having close friends and not having it too big. We didn’t have table settings or any of the stressful things that go along with weddings, and it was nice to just have it super-simple. My daughters were there, and they made everything really fun and easy: I think just because we didn’t have the pressure of having caterers and all of these things, you know, people turning up late, and all of the different moving parts.”

Kourtney Kardashian Embraces Her Baby Bump, Is All About PDA With Travis Barker

by

Kourtney Kardashian recently took to social media to show off her baby bump. The 44-year-old is expecting a child with her husband, blink-182 drummer Travis Barker. She poses in a bright blue two-piece outfit in her latest Instagram post, pairing the look with some silver heels. Kourtney also has three other kids with her ex, Scott Disick. The pair announced their pregnancy back in June at a blink-182 show in LA, and Kourtney has since been showing off her bump every chance she gets.

Kourtney and Travis are known to be an overtly affectionate couple, and being in public has never stopped them. This has been showcased on various episodes of The Kardashians, and recently confirmed by Pardyalone. The artist, who collaborated with Travis earlier this year, told Page Six that their lovey-dovey relationship isn’t just an act. “They’re PDA as f*ck,” he told the outlet. “They will not stop kissing, for real. I’m like, ‘Yo, chill.’” Pardyalone continued, “It’s so real. It’s probably more real [than what fans see on TV].” In real life, they really are, like, sucking face all the time.”

Kourtney Kardashian Shows Off Her Baby Bump

It appears that the happy couple is just as ravenous in real life as how they portray in the show. It doesn’t come as too much of a surprise that they’re embracing their relationship, however, considering Kourtney’s rocky former relationship with Disick. In the interview, Pardyalone also gave his congratulations to the pair, claiming that he hasn’t spoken to Travis since first hearing the news. “I haven’t really had a chance to talk to Travis but congrats, bro!” he told the drummer. “If you f*cking see this, congrats!”

It was confirmed earlier in the summer that the newest addition to the Kardashian family will be a boy. The couple teased his name in June, with Travis telling followers that they’ve already picked out a name. Fans will have to keep guessing for now though, as it’s yet to be revealed.

Benny The Butcher Reveals He’s Married To Longtime Girlfriend India

by

Benny the Butcher recently took to Twitter/X, revealing that he and his longtime girlfriend India have finally tied the knot. He kept the announcement of the big news short and sweet. “Real east side dope boy…I married a project princess,” the New York native wrote yesterday (August 5). “Me and India officially MARRIED.” Obviously, fans are happy for the lovebirds, who’ve apparently been a thing for years. Benny’s comments quickly became flooded with congratulations, as well as quotes from his 2018 A Friend of Ours track, “India.”

“Most importantly Indy / For the risks she took with me / Put a job on the line / Now helped turn 5 to 50 / And when dough was the object / I went broke in the process / I even got evicted / She kept me low in the projects,” Benny the Butcher raps in the track, which also features El Camino.

Benny The Butcher Announces His Marriage

“Congrats. You have done well. Happy blissful life!” one fan comments under the announcement. “Congratulations my man! That’s awesome to hear,” another writes. “Happy for you boss,” someone else tells Benny. It’s unclear when exactly it was that the two of them wed, but nonetheless, supporters are thrilled for them.

Benny the Butcher’s marriage isn’t the only thing he has to be excited about lately. Earlier this year, he announced that his new album, Everybody Can’t Go, would be released this month. Unfortunately, it looks like fans will have to wait a bit longer to hear it. Hit-Boy, who’s been working on the project shared the news on the Elliott Wilson Experience. “It was supposed to come in August but I think it’s getting pushed back,” he explained. With that being said, fans are as pumped as ever to hear his latest offering, which is believed to feature Lil Wayne. Benny shared a snippet last month featuring the rapper. There’s no release date set in stone yet, but stay tuned to HNHH for more updates.

Jaidyn Alexis Refuses To Fight Pregnant Chrisean Rock Despite Blueface’s Pleas

by

If we had a dollar for every time that either Jaidyn Alexis or Chrisean Rock has taken Blueface back over the years, we could buy a gift for the Crazy In Love stars’ unborn baby, at the very least. In recent weeks, the 26-year-old is spending most of his time with his first baby mama. At the same time, Rock is weeks away from giving birth to their child. Try as hard as she might to leave, the Baltimore native continues to be pulled back to Blue. This is disappointing for fans, given the nasty comments he’s made about her online. Last week, he and Alexis found themselves feuding, at which time he apparently called Rock to come pick him up.

Against her better judgment, the 23-year-old obliged, though she was met by a very angry Jaidyn upon arrival. At the time, the “Stewie” artist allegedly threatened Rock. Rather than feud, the Baddies cast member refused to get out of the car she was in with a friend. We’ve since seen her and Blueface trading shots on Twitter early on Sunday (August 6), and later in the afternoon, he hopped on Instagram Live to discuss the drama with fans.

As viewers watched on, Blue and Alexis reflected on how things went down, with the MILF Music founder notably pleading with his partner to beat up his ex. A parent herself, the rising rap diva was obviously disgusted by the idea. Still, that didn’t stop her and her baby daddy from laughing at Rock’s apparently terrified reaction to her competition’s truck side threats.

Read everything that Blueface and Chrisean Rock had to say to each other on Twitter this morning at the link below. Do you think the “Thotiana” rapper will come back around after his Zeus co-star delivers their baby? Let us know in the comments, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Kanye West Goes Barefoot While Bianca Censori Goes NSFW In New Italy Pics

by

It’s been a busy few days for Kanye West and his wife Bianca Censori, though that might be because of all the paparazzi snaps we’ve gotten. Moreover, they’ve been traveling a lot all over the globe. Their latest stop was in Italy, where they dressed scantily for the heat and, most recently, posed for some cute pictures together. Much like their last public outing (it might even be the same one), the Yeezy head honcho wore a black jacket with no shirt and matching pants- and with no shoes on either. On the other hand, the former Yeezy architect wore a see-through sheer blue jumpsuit with high heels and a beige cap.

Furthermore, it’s yet another instance of their eye-catching and often revealing style choices over the past few months. It’s unclear what they’re up to around the world, though; is this just vacation time or are they hitting meetings left and right? Either way, Kanye and Bianca seem to be having a great time together, smiling and showing each other some PDA in these new pics. In fact, it’s one of the few times we’ve seen them explicitly pose for public pictures rather than just catching them mid-walk or conversation.

Bianca Censori & Kanye West’s New Italy Pics

Throughout their travels, they’ve sometimes matched the energy of their outfits to their activities. As a contrary example, Kanye West and Bianca Censori went on a Hollywood bus tour around Rodeo Drive, which isn’t all too enticing. However, when they were around Tokyo, they went to an adult toy store as the Chicago MC donned a face mask. They might not be up to much on the surface, but with all the buzz around them, any sighting is an event.

Meanwhile, that buzz is made even more potent amid rumors of new music from the Donda artist. Unfortunately, that hype could come at the cost of his most recent public controversies falling to the wayside. At least the couple has each other, and hopefully they’ve reflected on the situation and focused their efforts inwardly. For more news and the latest updates on Kanye West and Bianca Censori, come back to HNHH.

Pharrell Williams Says He Feels Like He’s Known Beyonce For “Many Lives”

by

Pharrell Williams has opened up about his deep relationship with Beyoncé. His comments came while discussing the jumpsuit he helped create for her Renaissance World Tour. Pharrell currently serves as the Men’s Creative Director for Louis Vuitton. Furthermore, he helped create a bejeweled jumpsuit that Beyoncé wore during her current tour. While doing that, he also spoke about the connection he feels with the music superstar. Beyoncé and Jay-Z showed out in Paris earlier this year to support Pharrell’s first Paris Fashion Week show as the LV Creative Director.

“Beyoncé is a rare spirit,” Pharrell began. “The idea that I know her as a human being and have known her for all this time and our connection, I feel like I’ve known this person for many lives.” Of the jumpsuit, Pharrell said he wanted to create something totally unique and totally Beyoncé. “The idea here was to give her something that allows her body to set the template,” he stated. “Not only its shape and its form, which is basically informed by her spirit. Your body is literally a spiritual encasement. Continue to celebrate her shape and her form, but also make her feel free at the same time.”

Pharrell also revealed that he had created outfits for Blue Ivy as well. Blue has accompanied her mother for much of the tour’s North American leg. Furthermore, the 11-year-old has earned widespread praise for her dancing and other on-stage antics. However, it’s not been exclusively positive news from the tour.

A stagehand has been called out after a video from Beyoncé’s show in Boston appeared to show the man grope the singer’s ass during her performance. As she was being lowered into a large vehicle that served as part of the set design, the production assistant is very clearly seen his hand resting on the royal backside. This sent the internet into a frenzy, with many people joking that the man was getting fired. These reactions were exacerbated by additional video of Julius, Beyoncé’s longtime security guard, chasing after the singer after the incident.

Blueface Disses Chrisean Rock’s Teeth In Hateful Twitter Rant, She Claps Back

by

Sunday is upon us once again, meaning that for reality TV lovers, it’s time to sit back and enjoy (or hate-watch) another episode of Crazy In Love on Zeus. The previews we’ve seen for the latest release so far show Blueface preparing Chrisean Rock to take a lie detector test. Amid a series of other questions, he asks her if she’s slept with anyone other than him in 2023, and he calls her a “lying a** b**ch” after she denies his allegations. Clearly, the 26-year-old still has his doubts as to whether his co-star’s baby is his, and as her due date nears closer, he hasn’t been any kinder to her with his social media rants.

“Jaidyn the reason [Chrisean’s] teeth missing till this day,” Blue wrote early this morning. “Trust me, I’m with the right one. Jaidyn [chased] Rock the other day and had her running, she wasn’t lying. True story 😂,” the soon-to-be father of three’s string of tweets continued. “Jaidyn is the truth. I promise, she with all the bulls**t. Rock been running from that issue for a long time now.”

The Social Media Drama Continues

After a few more taunting messages, Rock finally chimed in on her own profile with some laughing emojis. That prompted the “Thotiana” artist to further mock her missing teeth before calling his ex out for allegedly spending $15K on the pendant Blue specifically had made for someone else.

“[Blah, you] don’t [know] shit. [You] only know what I want you to know. Dats why [when you] found out I was leaving Cali for a couple months [you] panicked,” the socialite clapped back at her future co-parent. “I [want to] be on da east coast for the healing process [and] I don’t want [you] there to sign the birth certificate. I’m going to have my child n heal in peace.”

Finesse2tymes’ Girlfriend, FNG Shugga, Gets His Face Tattooed: Video

by

Despite the rocky nature of their relationship, Chrisean Rock has dedicated a total of seven tattoos to Blueface over the years. Many of them are in highly sensitive places, namely her neck/throat area, and because of the 23-year-old’s ability to let her “Lit” collaborator go, some social media users have suggested that Rock’s decision to ink her man put a spell on the pair, keeping them bound by some sort of magic force. Regardless of the warnings we’ve heeded from that, it seems that one of Finesse2tymes’ girlfriends, FNG Shugga, now has a massive tattoo of her man’s face to flaunt to the world.

The Southern lyricist’s portrait is located on the front of his partner’s thigh. “[You] did that 😍,” he wrote along with a video of the artwork on his Instagram Story. It’s hard to deny the resemblance between Finesse’s picture and the ink on Shugga’s leg (portraits don’t always turn out so candidly), but the sheer size of the tattoo proves that it won’t be easy to remove should the polyamorous couple decide to go their separate ways down the road.

Social media users, many of them no stranger to chiming in on Finesse’s eccentric relationship, have plenty to say about FNG’s tribute this weekend. “Dang, you couldn’t just put a picture of him on your refrigerator?” one person asked in @theshaderoom’s comments. “She gon need an elephant 🐘 tattoo to cover that up,” another viewer speculated.

While one of Finesse2tymes’ lovers started her August by going under the needle, another, BBJay, made headlines earlier this summer with some antics of her own. At the time, she and rap diva Gloss Up got into a physical altercation, with the latter leaking DMs from the “How To Act” hitmaker after fighting with his girlfriend. Read more about that at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Phor’s Baby Mama Speaks Out About Viral Dog Cage Photo

by

Phor’s been making headlines this week for a viral photo of him in a dog cage. It was a promotional photo for his OnlyFans page, and it definitely managed to get social media users talking. The photo was posted on his Twitter account with the caption, “Got put in ‘time out’… i been a bad boy… find out what happens next subscribe while it’s free >>>.” The Blank Ink Crew: Chicago star was then instantly met with subsequent clowning online for the post.

Now, the mother of his child, Nina Austin, has spoken out about the situation. She’s not pleased with the post, sharing her thoughts in a recent clip. “I don’t condone it,” she explained, “I’m dealing with it first hand before anybody.” Austin continued, “I’m not gonna say that I haven’t entertained certain actions or participated in certain actions, cuz I have, but y’all didn’t see it.” She then went on to describe how she was just as “shocked” as everyone else upon seeing the post, revealing that it was “gut-wrenching.”

Amid the drama surrounding the photo, Phor shared a response. In his statement, he asks people to stop discussing it, and to just leave him alone. “Imma say this one time only. I don’t bother nobody. Anybody who knows me know that I don’t bother nobody. I’ve been a laid back n***a most of my life, most of this whole TV sh*t. I been chilling,” he writes. “Now that I’m at a place where I’m good and I’m getting my mind right and I’m doing what I wanna do outside of tattooing and music and TV shows n***a, I’m just doing me, I’m just living my life. You should live yours too. Just leave me alone.“

His statement continues, “Y’all are bothering me but attaching yourself to my name about something in the past. If if was me on the other end, and I got everyone calling me about X, Y, Z, I’d be like, sh*t it don’t concern me. I don’t go troll or be under everything. I’m just asking y’all one thing. Just leave me the f*ck alone.”
