Cher & AE Edwards Share A Passionate Kiss During Red Carpet Debut

by

Sparks flew between music icon Cher, 76, and her latest beau, music executive Alexander “AE” Edwards, 36, during their red carpet debut at Versace’s Fall/Winter 2023 fashion show. The “Believe” signer was stylishly clad in a flashy skintight royal blue jumpsuit with a corseted bodice that was decorated with studs and crystals. She completed the look with a metallic blue jacket that also sparkled with studs and crystals, plus a pair of electric blue platform boots.

The UMG producer was not to be outdone. He came clad in a full black ensemble that featured a dress shirt and pants, as well as a chunky pair of square-toed black shoes. He brought the outfit together with a Versace jacket, embellished with gold Medusa buttons and accessorized with sunglasses and earrings. His stud and hoop combo matched the jewelry encrusted in his teeth.

Cher and AE Go Bold For Versace’s Show

Cher recently revealed that she had two new albums planned with her new fiancé.  The singer was all smiles when talking about Alexander’s talent. “I’m going to England to make two albums,” she gushed. “Some of the songs Alexander gave me, so I’m pretty excited about that. He’s a producer and a writer, and he does everything, so I’m happy about that.” The pop legend also spoke about the age difference between her and Edwards in December on The Kelly Clarkson Show.

The star said, “On paper, it’s kind of ridiculous. But in real life, we get along great. He’s fabulous. And I don’t give men qualities that they don’t deserve.” This isn’t the first time the star has spoken out in defense of her relationship. In a now-deleted tweet, Cher responded to the back by saying, “LOVE DOESN’T KNOW MATH, IT SEES ❤ ❤.”

Cher Defends Her Age-Gap Relationship

She also defended Alexander from fans who doubted his sincerity. The pop icon tweeted, “As we All Know… I WASNT BORN YESTERDAY, & What I Know For Sure… There Are No Guarantees. Anytime you make a Choice You Take a Chance. I’ve Always Taken Chances… It’s WHO I Am” in response to a fan who said she wanted to see the star happy and not taken advantage of.

Alexander similarly had good things to say about his new girlfriend. He confirmed that Cher was an amazing stepmother to Slash, his three-year-old son whom he co-parents with Amber Rose. What are your thoughts about this couple? Tell us in the comments below.

Mo’Nique’s Open Marriage: Actress Explains Decision To Stop Being Non-Monogamous

by

Mo’Nique, the Oscar-winning comedian and actress, reveals that she and her husband have ceased their open marriage. In a recent interview, the Maryland native goes into detail about her thoughts on the arrangement now compared to years ago. The couple once agreed that sleeping with others would not impact their marriage. This was the case for some time, but as they both grew older, Mo’Nique began to change her mind. Still, her reasons do not appear to be out of jealousy, or regret.

It is not uncommon for long-term couples to explore the possibility of an open relationship. However, it’s also not uncommon for people to change their minds after opening their love lives. In the case of Mo’Nique and her husband Sidney Hicks, their age was one of the biggest factors. The actress states in her interview that “Life began to happen.” As the two grew older, their relationship grew stronger. As a result, they now have a bond that neither wants to risk by adding someone else to the mix.

Mo’Nique Grew Out Of Her Open Marriage

Open marriages are still a controversial subject. However, Mo’Nique is not a stranger to controversy in the entertainment world, as well as being honest about her life. The couple has been married since 2006, making their marriage over 15 years old. A lot can happen and change within that time. “He loved me at my worst,” she shared in her recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter. “I didn’t want to sacrifice that for just a lay. So I grew out of that.” Now, the couple is stronger than ever despite who else may have been involved.

While a lot of couples are growing apart from each other, it’s good to see a couple grow closer together. Not every open marriage ends poorly, and their relationship has been a testament to that. Sidney Hicks has stated in the past that their open arrangement would never phase his love for her. The two are incredibly close and have known each other for a long time. The idea to open their relationship was Mo’Nique’s at the time, but so was the decision to close it off. Check back later for more pop culture news updates.

Tiger Woods’ Lawyers Speak Out Amid Legal Battle With Ex Erica Herman

by

PGA Tour star Tiger Woods is making headlines after allegedly tricking his ex-girlfriend, Erica Herman, into leaving his Jupiter, Florida mansion where they lived together for six years. According to reports, Herman, 38, is suing the 47-year-old professional golfer following their breakup in October for $30 million amid claims she had an oral agreement with Woods’ “Jupiter Island Irrevocable Homestead Trust,” which is the legal owner of his mansion. The alleged agreement Herman stated allowed her to live at the property for 11 years and claims there is a “breach of duty” that has left her suffering “severe” emotional damages.

Herman’s lawsuit, handled by the 19th Judicial Circuit Court in Martin County, Florida, claims she should have been allowed to live in the property for five more years and that Woods is “terrified” over claims of “another scandal.” In the alleged oral agreement, Herman claims she provided “valuable services” at Woods’ request as part of the “oral tenancy agreement” to reside at the Florida mansion for the specified duration. However, the athlete’s lawyers told officials that the two never had a written or oral tenancy agreement and that his ex lived at the Florida residence as a “guest.”

In addition, they claim the trust owns “only a limited remainder interest” in his Florida mansion. The report adds that Herman’s specified grievances are against Woods and not the Jupiter Island Irrevocable Homestead Trust that owns the home. Attorneys for the 15-time major golf champion reportedly filed a motion to intervene amid claims that Herman sued the trust to avoid an agreement she had made with Woods to arbitrate all disputes.

According to ESPN, Herman, who worked as a general manager of Woods’ restaurant before entering into a personal relationship with him, is requesting a judge to remove her from an NDA she signed back in August 2017. Herman states the nondisclosure agreement, reportedly signed by both Woods and the plaintiff, was wrongfully forced upon her and cited the “Speak Out Act.” In her court filings, she alleged that the 82-time PGA Tour winner sexually abused her. Reports say that there were no provided details as to what the alleged abuse entailed.

According to the latest court filing notes, Woods started arbitration proceedings on Dec. 22 to establish that Herman has no right to live in his residence and is not entitled to monetary damages from him. However, ESPN reports those proceedings stopped on Jan. 26 after Herman stated her claims alleging breach of an oral tenancy agreement involve a “sexual harassment dispute” and cannot be compelled to arbitrate. Check back in with HNHH later for any updates on the tense situation.

Keke Palmer & Darius Jackson Match With Baby Leo In Heartwarming New Photos

by

Keke Palmer has spent most of her life in the public eye, from starring in 2006’s Akeelah and the Bee to, more recently, killing her performance in Jordan Peele’s Nope. In late 2022, she announced the exciting news of her pregnancy while hosting Saturday Night Live, and has since gone on to welcome her baby boy with boyfriend Darius Jackson. While some famous faces opt to stay offline in the months after going through such a major life change, the actress has continued to let her personality shine through on her various profiles while chronicling her journey into parenthood.

Earlier this month, the 29-year-old posted an emotional video on Instagram, during which she took a moment to praise any single people raising children by themselves. Even with the help of her partner and other loved ones, Palmer says that she’s been getting “cooked” in the time since she gave birth to Leodis Andrellton. Thankfully, she seems to have a strong support system keeping her sane amidst all the chaos.

Welcome to Motherhood, Keke Palmer

“I just want anybody out there that’s a single parent that’s been doing this – friends of mine, people that I don’t know, family members of mine – it brings tears to my eyes. I am just truly, profoundly impressed,” the former Disney star vented to viewers. “It truly does take a village… Sometimes that’s a privilege,” she additionally acknowledged. Many fans praised Palmer in the comments, thanking her for being so honest through the ups and downs of rearing her child.

In the time since then, the Illinois native appears to be comfortably settling into her life at home with Darius and baby Leo. On Thursday (March 9), she updated fans on her family via Twitter with some heartwarming selfies of them sporting matching pyjamas. While Palmer perfectly twins with her son in what appears to be a moon-print onesie, her boyfriend wears pyjama pants in the same pattern with a light blue t-shirt.

Jackson Family Dons Matching PJs

“Thank you @zennioptical for the lewks,” the new mother wrote along with her photo dump. In one of the snapshots, Jackson plants a kiss on Palmer’s head as their son peacefully sleeps on his chest. Though some first expressed their disappointment in Leodis’ unique name, they seem to be warming up to the young boy, who got plenty of compliments on social media.

One person wrote, “Good looks run in the family,” while another added, “Omg, Akeelah now has a little bee.” Elsewhere, trolls poked fun at Darius’ proud dad energy, asking, “Lol… Why is he carrying the child like he’s the one who gave birth?” See Keke Palmer’s cute photos for yourself above, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.

Lil Durk Warns Any Man In India Royale’s Comments: “Ima Break Them Jaws”

by

Lil Durk is trying to win his India Royale back. The couple became inseparable over the years as Royale became Durk’s muse in his music. Though the two looked perfectly happy on social media and the public eye at large, it seems as though things weren’t necessarily going well behind the scenes. The couple called it quits in 2022 following allegations that Durk was cheating on her. While she seems happy about being single, Durk has made numerous attempts publicly to try and get back in her good graces.

Back in February, Durk pleaded with India Royale to take him back in an Instagram tribute soundtracked by Future and Ye’s “I Won.” The Chicago rapper wished her a happy Valentine’s day and praised her for all that she’s done for him. “Happy Valentine’s day to the wonderful woman that made me a man I love you @indiaroyale,” he wrote on Instagram, along with a photo of her. However, she didn’t reciprocate those feelings.

Lil Durk Makes His Love For India Royale Known

India Royale swiftly rejected Durk’s Valentine’s day homage. On Twitter, she commented that “People really do not respect boundaries at all.” She added, “I try my best to be respectful and not put on a show but people don’t respect my choices.” She told him to “Let it go,” which seemingly triggered Durk. “I post ‘cause I wanted to[.] The internet don’t run durk,” he wrote. “Try the troll with another mfr leave certain people alone.” Regardless, he’s still making it clear that he wants India Royale back.

This week, he returned to Instagram where he, once again, professed his love for his ex. The rapper shared a video from Instagram page @upnextdailyslaps” that showed one man punching another man in the face, who then backs down from fighting any further. “Catch y’all in her comments ima break them jaws,” he captioned on his Instagram post. Not everyone found it funny as people believed that Durk has been incredibly unsuccessful in his attempts. Should he move on? Check his post above and sound off with your thoughts in the comments. 

Finesse2tymes & Erica Banks Trade Shots Over Their Short-Lived Relationship

by

Dating is hard enough for the average person, but the love lives of celebrities are particularly volatile due to the nature of their work. Constantly being in the public eye would take a toll on anyone, but having your looks, career moves, and relationships constantly scrutinized by both the press and social media causes many stars to keep their personal life private. While some famous couples do manage to make it to the endgame together, others – such as Finesse2tymes and Erica Banks – cut ties after just a few weeks.

The pair spent a few weeks together last September, though it wasn’t long before the 90 Days hitmaker posted up with another woman online. Since then, he and Banks have been known to trade shots back and forth online, though their beef reached new heights on Friday (March 10). At the time, Finesse sat down on The Breakfast Club to explain why he and the “Buss It” artist ultimately went their separate ways after such a short time.

Finesse2tymes Tells His Side of the Story

“The age thing, that’s what I didn’t understand,” he began, referencing the six-year age gap between them. “You know, I’m a man! When I wake up in the morning, my woman get up, ‘cuz it’s time to cook, it’s time to have some sex, it’s time to clean up,” Finesse further explained. “When you get up and get on your phone, I don’t like that. Don’t get straight on your phone when you around a man.” According to the southern rapper, a woman’s job is to take care of her partner first, then she can scroll through social media.

Seeing as she’s allegedly chronically online, it wasn’t long before Banks clapped back at her former lover. “This man crazy,” she wrote on her Story while reposting Finesse’s interview with TBC. Shortly after she went Live on IG, breaking down what happened from her point of view for curious followers.

Erica Banks Claps Back

“There’s a difference between a good woman and a maid,” the 24-year-old’s rant began. “There’s a difference between a good woman, and a ‘do girl.’ You get where I’m going? With Finesse, he wants a servant.” Banks then addressed Finesse’s comments about her using her phone immediately after opening her eyes, pointing out that she conducts most of her business through her cell. “I’m about to get up, make sure everything’s straight, check on my people, check on my account, and then we can get up and talk about what you wanna eat for breakfast.”

The rap diva told listeners, “This n*gga want a servant who can get on they knees and kiss his toes. I’m just not that girl! It’s somebody out there for him to do that, it just ain’t me.” Banks also made it known that she still thinks the Memphis native is a “good person” and “funny,” but knows that they’re not meant to be together. Hear everything the 1501 artist revealed about Finesse2tymes in the videos below, and check back later for more pop culture news.

Everyone Drake Has Dated

by

Drake, one of this generation’s most popular hip-hop artists, has had his fair share of romantic relationships in the public eye. Drake is linked to famous women worldwide, from fellow musicians to athletes. Here’s a look at everyone Drake has been in a relationship with:

Rihanna

Drake’s first high-profile relationship was with Rihanna, the Barbadian singer and actress. Early on in 2009, the two reportedly began dating in 2009, and their relationship was highly publicized in the media. Although the couple had an on-and-off relationship for several years, they finally called it quits in 2016. Despite the ups and downs in their relationship, they remained friends and even collaborated on songs, including “Take Care” and “Work.”

J-Lo

After his breakup with Rihanna, Drake began dating Jennifer Lopez, the American singer and actress. Later on, in late 2016, they would often be seen together in public. However, their relationship was short-lived, and the couple called it quits in early 2017.

Bella Hadid And Hailey Bieber

Drake’s next highly publicized relationship was with American model and actress Bella Hadid. The two were first spotted together in 2017, and rumors of their relationship began circulating. However, neither he nor Bella ever confirmed their relationship, and whether they were dating remains unclear.

Later on, in 2018, Drake was linked to another famous model, Hailey Bieber, the American model and wife of Justin Bieber. The two were seen together several times, and rumors of their relationship began circulating. Nevertheless, like his relationship with Bella Hadid, he never confirmed whether he was dating Hailey.

Johanna Leia

Drake’s most recent fling was with Johanna Leia, the mother of Amari Bailey, a highly-touted basketball prospect. The two were first spotted together in 2021, and their relationship was highly publicized in the media. However, their relationship was short-lived, and the couple reportedly split up a few months later.

Have His Relationships Affected His Music Career?

To conclude, the impact of women in Drake’s life and career has been a topic of much discussion. Some argue that his highly publicized relationships have helped to increase his popularity and public profile. Others say that his relationships have been a distraction from his music and have caused him to lose focus on his career.

Despite his relationships’ impact on his career, the rapper remains one of the most successful musicians in the industry. Overall, he has won numerous awards, including four Grammy Awards, and has sold over 170 million records worldwide. Incidentally, his music significantly impacts popular culture, with many of his songs becoming viral hits and inspiring countless memes and TikTok videos.

Despite the ups and downs, Drake remains one of the most successful musicians in the industry. Meanwhile, the impact of his connections on his life and career is a topic of much discussion. Yet, it is still clear that Drake’s music has significantly impacted popular culture and helped solidify his place as one of the most.

Kanye West & Bianca Censori Spend The Day With North West At Universal Studios

by

North West has two of the most famous parents in the world, meaning she’s been given plenty of exciting opportunities throughout her life. For example, she performed with “Chandelier” singer Sia this past Christmas at her family’s holiday party. More recently, her mom, Kim Kardashian, arranged for her to meet one of her idols – Ice Spice. The 23-year-old and her new friend posted several TikTok videos together last weekend, causing a serious stir online.

In the various videos, North and a few of her young friends groove along with the Like..? hitmaker’s “In Ha Mood” and “Boy’s a liar Pt. 2” tracks. The eldest Kardashian-West child also revealed another portrait she drew of Spice, along with a message for followers dishing that she’s as sweet in person as she seems in the media. In the hours after the TikToks went up, the 9-year-old returned with more content, this time lip-syncing along to the same songs while dressed as the redheaded lyricist, curly wig and all.

North’s Ice Spice Obsession

Though Kardashian and her daughter’s joint account has the comment section turned off, the videos continued to recirculate on social media and generate plenty of discourse. Specifically, some pointed out that North’s dad, Kanye West, may have had a point in wanting his daughter to stay off TikTok. Others, however, argued that the father of four got what was coming to him as karma for his own previous troubling actions.

Regardless of North West’s Ice Spice imitations shedding some negative light on the family, she and Ye are still stepping out in public to enjoy their time together. On Thursday (March 9), the “Ghost Town” artist was seen at Universal Studios Hollywood with his firstborn, as well as his new wife, Bianca Censori. They spent their time at the theme park checking out carnival games and shooting some hoops, Ye keeping a low profile with a ski mask covering his face.

Ye’s Family Fun Day

The newlyweds have been keeping to themselves lately, though this isn’t the first time we’ve seen them take North out. In late January, the Wests headed to NOBU for a luxurious dinner date, and we’ve since seen Censori and her man do some shopping at Balenciaga. At this time, little still remains known about their relationship and the legal technicalities of their marriage.

Still, seeing the Yeezy founder bring his partner around one of his children is certainly a good sign for their relationship. It’s unclear if the Australian architect has met his three other little ones – Saint, Chicago, and Psalm – just yet. Check back in with HNHH later for any updates on the couple and your other favourite celebrities.
