Ye & Bianca Censori Attend North West’s Basketball Game, Kim Kardashian Also There

by

The co-parenting life certainly isn’t easy. Still, it’s the route many end up taking when their relationships crumble after having children. Kim Kardashian and Kanye West, who share four young kids, have learned a lesson or two in this department since their divorce. Thankfully, they seem to be doing much better now than they were this time last year. The exes obviously aren’t besties. Nevertheless, they’re civil enough to respect one another’s boundaries – and sit in the same gym during their eldest daughter, North West’s basketball game.

As TMZ reports, the celebs were both in attendance at the TikTok star’s face-off earlier this weekend. The Life of Pablo rapper brought along his new wife, Bianca Censori. They apparently only stayed for a brief moment before making their exit in Ye’s SUV. Kardashian, on the other hand, showed up in some cool athleisure and stuck around for the entire game. Photographers captured plenty of photos and videos of the mother of four as she left the building. Kim mostly stayed quiet as the cameras flashed at her and her daughter. Ever the jokester, the 9-year-old made a quip about the obnoxious lights as she and her friends hopped into a car waiting for them.

Ye & Kim Kardashian Continue to Co-Parent

His oldest child’s basketball game isn’t the only event West and Censori have been spotted at as of late. On Wednesday (April 19), Fear Of God hosted a runway show. The couple attended in lowkey (but still provocative) outfits. Ye was also seen turning up to a Pusha T track at the function shortly after deleting his embattled Instagram account.

While her ex-husband clearly wants to keep things lowkey lately, Kim Kardashian has been in the spotlight consistently. Last week she caught our eye with her Uma Thurman in Kill Bill-inspired outfit. Of course, there was also the news that she’s ready to begin dating again. It’s previously been said that the 42-year-old is hoping to find a partner outside of the Hollywood circle, preferably a man who works in finance. Who do you think would be a perfect fit for the socialite? Let us know below, and check back later for more pop culture news.

A$AP Rocky & Rihanna Are In “Fashion Killa” Mode During Date Night In France

by

Rihanna and A$AP Rocky are frequently known for turning heads with their street style in New York City. Now, however, the rapper and singer are giving the citizens of Paris some fashion inspiration with their latest looks. For the latter half of April, they’ve been spending plenty of time exploring the French capital, whether together, individually, or in the company of their firstborn son, who’s unsurprisingly something of a “Fashion Killa” in his own right.

Last week the “Changes” hitmaker kept busy filming what appears to be a music video with some friends. The Barbadian also met up with some of her pals, posing for stunning photos with her bump on display while meeting them at some of the city’s finest restaurants. On Sunday (April 23), paparazzi cameras caught the lovers heading out to grab a bite together, both obviously dressed in their best. Rocky kept it cool in a stud-covered mid-wash denim jacket and sunglasses, while Rihanna certainly brightened the mood with her ensemble.

Rihanna and Rocky Dine in the City of Love

Not only did she catch our eye with her adorable bright yellow cropped polo sweater and flashy silver jewelry, but we can’t get enough of her bottoms either. Rather than tone down the vibrant, fuzzy top, Rih opted to bring the same energy to her pants, wearing deep purple velvet trousers with ruching running up the legs. As has become tradition lately, the 35-year-old had her budding baby bump out and about while she and Rocky eagerly await the arrival of their second child together.

The little one’s gender and even the ANTI artist’s due date remain unclear, though we do know her son will be celebrating his first birthday in May. The Bad Gal shocked the world when she revealed her second pregnancy during her iconic Super Bowl Halftime performance, which also marked her first time on stage in several years. While many expected her to return with news of an album, fans have been just as happy to see their favourite singer venturing into her new journey of motherhood. Which of Rihanna’s recent outfits has been your favourite? See more of ours here, and let us know in the comments below.

Ne-Yo’s Baby Mama Sade Showers Him In Love On IG

by

Sade, an influencer who was rumored to be Ne-Yo’s baby mama, is confirming that rumor with a lot of pride. Moreover, she recently uploaded various videos of the R&B icon to her social media, sharing some Instagram clips of him performing at what seems to be a club. “Mmmmmm sexy a** baby daddy,” she captioned a video of Ne-Yo, real name Shaffer Chimere Smith, during his concert. “F**k what you talking about,” she added with some sweaty emojis. Also, she posted a clip of Smith dancing during a party, and they seem to be having a ball.

Unfortunately, this relationship came to light in a pretty sour way. Ne-Yo’s wife Crystal Renay filed for divorce back in August of 2022, alleging that he had a child with another woman out of wedlock. In fact, he had another child with Sade just last month (if the first one is true), so it seems that he’s moving on quite rapidly from his previous relationship. While the drama isn’t seeming to faze him, it’s bolstered by Sade offering her own thoughts on the pregnancy. Overall, her message was quite sweet considering the circumstances.

Ne-Yo’s Baby Mama Shows Him Some IG Love

“Angel of mine,” Ne-Yo’s new flame’s message began on Instagram. “Coming to terms with the delicate circumstances, when I felt like I just couldn’t take on another load, especially at the expense of another persons happiness.. sometimes even my own.. wasn’t the easiest decision. However, I have to choose me. Therefore, I have to choose you. The JOY Braiden gives me every day strengthened me & let me know I can do this gracefully.. with love, compassion, and penitence . Patiently awaiting you. Ready for this journey. Ready 4 the lessons & the blessings. I can’t wait to meet you my buttercup!! xoxo MOMMY.”

Meanwhile, all these developments probably informed Ne-Yo when he gave Taylor Swift some relationship advice. For those who didn’t catch it, a TMZ reporter caught up with the Arkansas native and asked if he had any tips for the recently broken-up superstar. “Some of my best songs are about heartache and breakups and stuff like that,” he explained. “That’s the beauty of being a songwriter. You don’t have to suffer through it as much because you can take that energy and turn it into something positive.” Regardless of your take on all this, stay posted on HNHH for the latest on Ne-Yo.

Nelly And Ashanti Link Up At Davis-Garcia Fight

by

Nelly and Ashanti were once a musical power couple. They first met in 2003 during a press conference for the Grammys and quickly entered into a relationship. The couple stayed together for 11 years before breaking up in 2014. Nelly then entered into a long-term relationship with Shantel Jackson while Ashanti was linked to the likes of Ja Rule and Flo Rida. While not often seen together, Nelly and Ashanti appeared to stay on good terms.

However, the end of 2022 brought with it rumors that Nelly and Ashanti were reuniting. First, there was an intimate dance the two shared at the December 5 “Under the Mistletoe” concert. A week later, Ashanti openly spoke about the rumors they were getting back together and said she would collab with Nelly again. Most recently, Ashanti was caught sporting Nelly’s chain in February, further fuelling the rumors.

On April 22, a veritable who’s who of star power descended on Las Vegas for the highly-anticipated boxing match between Gervonta Davis and Ryan Garcia. As opposed to the all-out knockout brawl promised by the fighters, fans were treated to a paced and calculated fight. Davis eventually prevailed, delivering a crippling body blow knockout in the seventh round. However, keen-eyed gossip sleuths weren’t paying attention to the fight. How could they, given the wealth of famous faces in the audience? Despite the plethora of celebrities, one group of attendees, in particular, has got the internet buzzing.

Nelly and Ashanti were spotted attending the fight together, with seats a few rows back from the ring. While the footage is brief, Nelly and Ashanti can clearly be seen amongst their sprawling entourage. So what does this mean? On the one hand, it could simply be a friendly outing by exes clearly on good terms. Davis v Garcia was the event to be at on Saturday night so it makes sense that they were there. However, fans have run wild with speculation. “He couldn’t take seeing those vacation pics anymore,” wrote one fan on Instagram. However, neither side has publicly confirmed that they have officially rekindled their romance. If they do, you know you’ll find all the details here on HotNewHipHop.

Rihanna & A$AP Rocky House Hunting In Paris During Vacation: Report

by

As their family expands, so too does their property. As DailyMail reports, Rihanna and A$AP Rocky were photographed checking out houses in Paris earlier this week. The couple is reportedly hoping to purchase a place in the city. It remains unclear if anything they viewed on this trip caught their eye. Among current considerations are a second-floor apartment, as well as a three-story house, located in the 16th arrondissement. Their son, whose first birthday is quickly approaching, didn’t appear to be with them at the time. They went to tour their potential new homes between 3 and 5 AM on April 18.

It’s likely the expecting parents stepped out in the early hours of the morning to avoid being caught on camera. Unfortunately, their mission was unsuccessful. Photos of them entering a van and exploring behind a gated property are now making rounds on social media. “Kind of sad they can’t even go out at 3 AM without getting followed,” one Twitter user pointed out upon seeing the paparazzi images.

Rihanna and Rocky Check Out Paris Property

Rocky and Rihanna have been keeping undeniably busy during their time overseas. Of course, the New Yorker has been busy filming what appears to be an upcoming music video or promotional material with friends in Paris’ cobbled streets. For her part, the 35-year-old has been entertaining her son with shopping trips to Louis Vuitton and other designer stores, all while showing off her growing bump – and wearing heels. She’s also been seen grabbing dinner at restaurants like Cesar. Elsewhere, the Bad Gal and her beau happily supported Jay-Z at his surprise concert.

It remains unclear how far along she is in her second pregnancy. Nevertheless, the Ocean’s 8 actress looks to be enjoying her life as a new mother. When she’s not carrying Baby Fenty around Europe, she’s been posting adorable snapshots and videos of him all over her Instagram page. Most recently, she adorned him in sweet bunny ears while celebrating Easter, also icing the young boy out with some serious jewelry. Check out more of Rihanna’s iconic Paris maternity fashion moments here, and tap back in later for more hip-hop news updates.

Wiz Khalifa Talks Amber Rose Co-Parenting On Drink Champs

by

On the special 4/20 episode of the Drink Champs podcast, N.O.R.E. and DJ EFN had none other than Wiz Khalifa join the table. Throughout the interview, they discussed the Pittsburgh icon’s vast connections, career moves, classic hits, and perspective in life. However, one very important and heartening topic of conversation was his co-parenting with ex Amber Rose. While that situation can be tough for many to navigate, Wiz expressed how important and fulfilling it is to make sure their son Sebastian, born in 2013, has a healthy and happy relationship with his parents.

“We’re like the ideal couple, even though we’re not together,” “We share the most beautiful thing in life, we have a kid. We got great memories, we were married. So everything we did was out of pure love, you know what I’m saying? We planned on being with each other forever. But, you know, that s**t gets difficult. And I think with marriage, with legal marriage, it kind of sucks because that has to be the end of something when that’s over. But I think we’re proving that it’s not the end of everything, even when that legal s**t is over.

Wiz Khalifa Shouts Out Amber Rose On Drink Champs

“I got her back, she knows it, she got my back, I know it,” Wiz continued. “We do a great job, you know, being there for our kid. We do so many things for Sebastian- not even just for him, but we’re such a good unit for him that I didn’t see growing up. My parents, they weren’t able to function, her parents as well. I think just that generation of dysfunction, there was no come-together. There was no holidays, there was no birthdays together. It was just real dysfunctional. That’s what we grew up seeing, and we do things together.

“He gets to enjoy both of us together,” the rapper concluded. “He doesn’t see us separately. That’s really important. My parents were divorced since I was 2, and I had both of them in my life. Love my mother, love my dad, but they can’t be in the same room together, and that’s not good for a kid. And it’s not their fault because they probably didn’t grow up seeing the best functioning anything. But we gotta break that and we gotta be better for our f***ing kids.” Check out the full interview above, particularly around the 2 hour and 10 minute mark for the co-parenting conversation.

Kanye West Spotted Out & About With Bianca Censori

by

After the couple appeared in skin-tight latex suits masking their faces at the Fear Of God runway show on Wednesday (April 19), some new pictures emerged of Kanye West and Bianca Censori ahead of the weekend. Moreover, Ye shaved his head and kept a bushy beard, which he displayed driving around town with Censori. A different look could mean anything for Kanye, but his controversies and desire for privacy doesn’t indicate he’ll be firmly back in the public eye anytime soon. Regardless, any peek at the Chicago artist will turn heads.

However, those peeks are now harder to come by than ever considering he deactivated his Instagram account. While many want him to make some sort of statement so he can return to business as usual, it’s probably best for him to lay low. Not only do people antagonized and legitimately affected by his comments deserve space away from him on the media, but it also might give him the time and energy to heal and reflect on his actions on his own. Even though the media will still cover and give updates on him, the 45-year-old probably benefits from not having presence of his own.

Kanye West Driving Around With Bianca Censori

In a twisted turn of events, past and future long-term coverage of Kanye West did and will do a lot of that for him, albeit without his input. When it comes to past explorations of his character, the documentary jeen-yuhs from Coodie and Chike is facing a lawsuit from a woman who disapproved of their use of footage of her. According to her suit, she was in an “altered state and not capable of providing consent” when filmed. Amid claims of emotional distress and damage to her reputation, she expresses disappointment in the carelessness of the footage.

Meanwhile, the upcoming We Need To Talk About Kanye documentary from BBC will reportedly focus on his blasted behavior more closely. Also, its producer stated that the film develops “revelations” about Ye’s recent actions and his long history in the public eye. Perhaps this will be a meaningful exploration of his arc and character- or just a puff/hit piece based on what we already know. Regardless, come back to HNHH for the latest news and updates on Kanye West.

Finesse2tymes & His Girl Diss JT & Lil Uzi Vert: “Who Man You Calling Ugly? Have You Seen Yours?”

by

JT is best known for the bars she’s created as one-half of City Girls, but the Florida native certainly knows how to run her mouth outside of the studio too. Earlier this week, she found herself in the midst of some nasty internet drama after comparing a baby to Memphis rapper Finesse2tymes, calling both of them “ugly” in response to an internet troll hating on her partner, Lil Uzi Vert. “Ugly baby and dead father 😿,” she wrote. “That baby looks like Finesse 2 x’s. Please leave me alone. I’m not bothering no one 🙂 ❤.”

Following that, the “Twerkulator” hitmaker headed over to Twitter to share some thoughts. “I’m the most unproblematic person ever,” her rant began. “Idgaf ’bout nothing, but if I find time to throw a shot back I will. Nothing personal all love.” In another post, JT went on to say, “[People] will constantly pick on you and call you upset when you respond. I’m not mad, have no reason to be mad! But you mad ’cause I’m not giving you the clarification you want? So you gone constantly bully me for what you wanna hear? Nah, Ima talk about you bad without clearin’ up nothin’. I’m innocent.”

JT Throws Shade While Defending Lil Uzi Vert

The 30-year-old may think that she’s innocent, but Finesse2tymes and his new girl definitely don’t agree. “JT, WHO MAN YOU CALLING UGLY?” FNG Shugga wrote on her Instagram Story after reading the rap diva’s comments. “HAVE YOU SEEN YOURS😕?” she also asked, seemingly poking fun at LUV’s unique new Leslie Chow alter ego they’ve been sporting since Rolling Loud Thailand. The “How to Act” hitmaker also defended himself, threatening to “break” JT in a post on his own profile. “Guess she mad ’cause I said can’t do nun [with] no skinny ho 🤷🏽‍♂️😂,” he typed over a black screen.

As if that weren’t enough, the southern lyricist also addressed the situation during an IG Live session a few hours ago. “Ain’t gone let no hoe get a pass… I’ll stand on a n*gga in the same way,” he told viewers tuning in. Scroll on to see what FNG Shugga and Finesse2tymes had to say for yourself, and check back later for more hip-hop news updates.

Lil Baby Allegedly Fathered IG Model Daliesha Keys’ Infant Son, She Exposes DNA Test

by

On his Instagram page, Lil Baby is frequently seen spending time with and spoiling his two sons – Jason and Loyal. While the Atlanta native lives a busy life as one of the most recognizable rappers out right now, he’s sure to include his young boys in his celebrity lifestyle by bringing them along to red-carpet events or icing them out with luxurious jewelry. He’s obviously established a strong co-parenting relationship with both of his baby mamas, but now, it seems a third woman is trying to enter the picture with claims that Baby fathered her infant child.

Earlier this week, an Instagram model, Daliesha Keys, unveiled a DNA test for her son, which claims that Dominique Jones – the My Turn artist’s real name – is a 99.99% match for paternity. The document is in Spanish, but regardless of the language, numbers simply don’t lie. Of course, there are still a lot of pieces missing from the puzzle, but the social media starlet celebrated her apparent win by posting photos of the little one on her Instagram feed. “For all the haters and everyone who was trying to silence me, the truth out now🧬,” she wrote in the caption.

Is Lil Baby a Father of Three?

In the comment section, internet trolls pointed out that Keys previously pulled a similar stunt with another rapper, making her allegations slightly harder to believe this time around. “First Durk, now Baby😂😂,” they wrote. “Tryna come for the voice of the [heroes] 😂.” Someone else pointed out another potential issue with the DNA test’s legitimacy, noting that, “Lmaoooo ma’am it [says] North Carolina but it’s in Spanish. BFFR!!!!!!”

Elsewhere in the comments, others speculated how Baby’s second son’s mother, Jayda Cheaves will react to the drama. The former couple has been spending plenty of time together again as of late, though it remains unclear if they’ve rekindled their romance just yet. “Jayda ’bout to post her whole Chanel collection with this one,” one user quipped. “One thing we know post-COVID is ANYBODY can create a form😂😂😂,” another funny comment reads. Do you think Daliesha Keys’ allegations about Lil Baby are legit? Let us know in the comments, and check back later for more pop culture news.
