Jeffree Star Reveals His “NFL Star Boo” As Tennessee Titans Player Taylor Lewan

by

Throughout his many years in the spotlight, Jeffree Star has undeniably been at the centre of several controversies. Most recently, the beauty content creator sparked major discourse online as he teased the potential “NFL boo” in his life. Last month, Star shared a photo taken on a private jet that shows his claw-manicure-clad hand wrapped around another white man’s.

Immediately after the post hit socials, internet sleuths chiefly began guessing who the entertainer could possibly be romancing. The anonymous athlete’s shoes and pants were used as clues, as well as minuscule details about his hands. As Daily Mail notes, fans became so obsessed with unravelling the mystery that an NFL WAGs host has been forced to come forward and insist that her man isn’t seeing Jeffree on the side.

For his part, Star has been doing little to shut down the gossip. In fact, this week, he finally unmasked the identity of his footballer beau – Tennessee Titans player, Taylor Lewan. In a post earlier this month, the 37-year-old began dropping hints to help curious users out. “His team didn’t make it to the #SuperBowl but he’s 6’6″ and plays perfect in the bedroom,” he wrote in the caption of a mirror selfie that finds his beau facing backwards while they hold hands.

Of course, there are those skeptical about the validity of the apparent relationship. Some have pointed out that Lewan is married and a father, while others note that the same circumstances haven’t stopped athletes from cheating in the past. It’s also been pointed out that Jeffree recently filmed an episode of Bussin’ With The Boys, a podcast hosted by his rumoured man and former NFL player Will Compton.

Of course, Jeffree Star is no stranger to controversy. As 2022 was coming to an end, he subsequently went viral on Twitter after posting about the Illuminati. In a series of tweets, the controversial YouTuber claimed that the organization of elites is targeting famous figures like Kanye West and Britney Spears.

“It’s 10 times worse than you can ever imagine,” Star said of his experience previously evading the organization. “Just be thankful you are on the other side.” Read social media’s reaction to the creative’s concerning posts here, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.

Reginae Carter Claps Back At People Tearing Down Her Relationship

by

Reginae Carter recently aired out her frustrations with critics of her relationship and how openly loving the two are. While her and her partner Armon Warren always show affection, some people ridiculed how young and naïve they seem. As such, many pointed out how much they seemed to rush into their status and into their affection. For example, one user prodded Carter to think more realistically “He literally didn’t have a passport before he met you but was buying hallow jewelry, be fr reginae.”

Still, Lil Wayne’s daughter was having none of it. “It’s really super weird to me when people get mad at you for loving your significant other out loud…” she tweeted. “Like I’m sorry you’ve played the side for so many years you don’t know different … but me ? Imma post wtf I want . Never have to hide s**tttttt.” Even with critics still making their points, she had a lot of people supporting her in the comments. “They want you to keep that s**t a secret so bad,” a Twitter user wrote in response. “But they couldn’t wait to blast you when you were going through it…keep loving and being loved out loud.”

Meanwhile, the 24-year-old recently clapped back at haters who trolled her boyfriend Armon gifting her a promise ring. “Y’all old asses mad at my promise ring but been in 10 year relationships with a bunch of broken promises,” she exploded on Twitter. “Get you somebody to take care of your time not waste it aunties. But anyways .. back to my amazing morning … Happy Holidays!” While people thought it was a bit too much, Warren’s message was still pretty sweet.

“So this is my promise ring to you baby, okay?” he said in a video clip. “This is my loyalty, this is my love. This is everything, this is me investing my time, everything into you. I only want to be with you. This is my promise.” Regardless of what you think of their relationship, come back to HNHH for the latest on Reginae Carter.

JT Boasts About Romance With Lil Uzi Vert: “He’s So Inspiring”

by

They’ve been hit with rumors that their relationship was struggling, but all is well between Lil Uzi Vert and JT. The pair has been going strong for some time, and although there have been moments when people suspected their romance ended, the couple always returns stronger than ever. In an interview with Angie Martinez, JT opened up about her relationship and boasted about her boyfriend.

“He’s a great man,” said the City Girls star. “No matter how the internet tries to paint Uzi. Uzi is a great man!” Martinez jumped in to pay the Philadelphia rapper praises, and JT couldn’t stop bragging about how good of a person he was. “He’s so inspiring. He go to work every night, he at work right now!”

JT joked that she would be asleep while Uzi’s grinding out in the studio. “I’m sleep all the time! But, I’m so fortunate and lucky to have somebody like him because he’s so inspiring,” she said. “No matter what he’s going through, he’s going to work. And when I see him in his bag, I be like, ‘I gotta get my bag because this n*gga is in his bag, and he’s not giving up. He’s coming back swinging every time.”

When they’re not paying one another compliments in interviews, you can find Uzi and JT showing their love online. Celebratory moments like anniversaries, birthdays, and holidays often come with luxury gifts. The couple has given one another cars, cash, and clothes—proving that the price tag doesn’t matter in true love. Martinez noted that it must be “so nice” for Uzi to hear JT share such kind words about him.

Jt quipped, “He don’t hear that every day.” The ladies laughed as JT added, “He hears it, majority.” When Angie said Uzi also showed his affections publicly, JT replied that “he’s actually kinda shy.” The Florida rapper also shared that Uzi’s “straight-faced” demeanor can be seen as “mean,” but in reality, he feels like he’s being put on the spot.

“We’re just two young artists in a house, trying to figure each other out,” JT said elsewhere. Uzi reassures her that his love for her is genuine and goes beyond industry accomplishments. Check out the clip of the interview above.

Nia Long On Ime Udoka: “I Don’t Cry As Much As I Used To”

by

When it was revealed that Ime Udoka cheated on Nia Long, he came as a shock. The Boston Celtics coach was said to have carried on an affair with a team staffer, and as the scandal unraveled, everyone seemed to hound Long for a statement. The public wanted to know how she was coping with the controversy, if she would stay with her partner of 13 years, and what information she had about the other woman. The actress kept her cards close to her chest, but now, she is getting candid with The Cut about her journey.

“For the last 22 years, I’ve been pouring out. But at a certain point, you’re like, ‘Woo, I’m looking a little tired,’” said Long. “Even if I can’t see it, I can feel it. So I try to pour into myself and let everyone know this is a ‘do not disturb’ period.” In the end, Long decided to end her longstanding romance with Udoka and focus on raising her children. The mother of two shares a son with Udoka, an 11-year-old who has had to face his father’s indiscretions with the rest of the world.

“My only focus right now is my youngest son ’cause he’s having a really tough time,” Long stated. “I’m sure I have some things that I’m suppressing, but I have to do that to take care of him first. That’s the giving. It’s natural. I’m sure I’ll have to circle back with myself several times to reconcile things. But the one thing I’m trying not to harbor is anger.” In that reflection on her relationship, Long admitted she has tried to piece together what went so wrong after 13 years.

“The Celtics made a choice to make my family business public, and I don’t understand why,” the You People star also said. “It could’ve all been handled internally. I do understand why, but I can’t talk about it. Maybe one day I will. You know, fear drives stupidity, and I’ll leave that right there. I’ve learned that I’m stronger than I ever thought I was.”

Immediately following the reveal, Long was bombarded with supportive messages from industry peers and fans alike. It was something she says helped her through dark days. “It saved my mental well-being because I felt uplifted by the community in a way that felt like my family was checking in and making sure I was okay. And that, I appreciated. I have that for people like Beyoncé. I look at her, and I’m so proud of her because I know how difficult it is to sustain and manage everything she has in her life. My life is probably a smaller version of that.”

“I don’t cry as much as I used to,” Long said of mourning her breakup. “I don’t know if that’s a good or bad thing, but I do check in with myself and let people know how I feel, for better or worse. ’Cause I’m not holding on to nonsense, and I’m also not passive-aggressive. I say it and sometimes it’s received, sometimes it’s not, but in any case, it’s my truth.”

“Black women that are dynamic and famous and there to inspire are also required to be exceptional, and sometimes I just get tired of being strong. That’s my biggest thing: I don’t want to have to be strong. I would like to just have an experience that’s pleasant. But the difference comes down to race. Race matters and makes a difference in your experiences and the way people treat you, respect you, and regard you — and the way people protect you. Malcolm X said the least protected person in America is the Black woman. That quote resonates big time in my life right now.”

Larsa Pippen Teased After Ex Malik Beasley Traded To Lakers With Scotty Pippen Jr.

by

As her romance with Marcus Jordan heats up, Larsa Pippen’s past relationship comes back to haunt her. The ex-wife of Scottie Pippen has made a name for herself as a socialite and reality television star; however, her romances seem to take over social media timelines. She’s been linked to the likes of Future and later NBA star Malik Beasley. During her relationship with the latter, Beasley was separated from his wife, Montana Yao. A social media war of sorts unfolded, and after four months of canoodling, Beasley and Pippen called it quits.

Yet, things are about to get a tad awkward after huge announcements were made during Thursday’s (February 9) NBA trade deadline. It was learned that Beasley was given a new home with the Los Angeles Lakers—the team that also houses Larsa’s son, Scotty Pippen Jr. The 22-year-old basketball star has already faced trolls who teased him about his mother’s famous boyfriends. Now, he’ll be teammates with her ex.

For now, Larsa looks more than happy with Marcus Jordan, son of NBA giant Michael Jordan. This means the 48-year-old is dating the 32-year-old son of her ex-husband’s teammate, which has made the internet light up with jokes. In this latest Lakers update, the Jordans, Pippens, nor Beasleys have reacted, but Montana Yao seems to know about the trade. On her Instagram Story, she simply wrote: “LOL.”

Yao previously took to social media to call out Larsa. She suggested her fellow NBA wife was dating Beasley before their separation. This was a point that was argued back and forth, but in the end, it didn’t seem to matter much. Immediately after calling off the relationship with Pippen, Beasley publicly apologized to Yao for what she endured.

These days, things seem to be much better between Beasley and Yao. After a legal hiccup that landed him in jail, Beasley is back to business. Additionally, he and his wife welcomed a second child last year, a daughter they named Mia.

Moneybagg Yo & Ari Fletcher Grill Each Other With Questions During Cooking Video

by

Ari Fletcher and Moneybagg Yo recently asked each other some tough questions during a cooking video the two recorded together. While the couple went through their fair share of hiccups in their history, it was a fun and charming clip. In fact, it seems they’re more committed than ever, as these questions were pretty in-depth. Here are Ari’s inquiries: “Did you really snatch my wig off when we was outside the club in Miami? Do your kids like me? In your new song, you was like ‘F**k on my h*e, f**k on my b***h.’ Who were you talking about? Do your baby mamas like me?”

Moreover, the Memphis rapper had his own set of questions as they cooked what seemed to be some sort of chicken recipe. “Do you remember the first time you said you loved me, and when I told you? You ain’t let me hit until, like Thanksgiving. You made me wait.” Much to be thankful for, indeed. Unfortunately, though, the clip omits each partner’s answers, but Fletcher said the full video will come out soon. After all, Ari has a channel where she posts cooking vids often. In fact, we already knew this video was coming thanks to her blasting an Airbnb owner for promoting it.

Furthermore, Fletcher and Moneybagg filmed the cooking video in an Airbnb, whose owner posted pictures of the couple as they filmed. In fact, it was all to promote the property. “If I payed for a air bnb like a regular normal customer, why would you post pictures of me inside your air bnb telling people we was there,” Ari wrote on Twitter. “That’s so unprofessional and I was working on something private. I haven’t been at a air bnb in years and this why cause that s**t ghetto!!!”

In another tweet, she wrote, “People saying I posted a picture in the house SO!!! I never posted what I was doing or who I was doing it with! That’s s**t they say and watched on the cameras. That’s weird AF!” Whether the Airbnb owner’s gotten more sales or not, they definitely felt the wrath of Ari. Regardless, come back to HNHH for the latest on Moneybagg Yo and Ari Fletcher, and stay tuned for that cooking video.

Bill Gates & Paula Hurd Quietly Dating For “Over A Year”: Report

by

The demise of his 27-year marriage to Melinda Gates couldn’t have been easy for Bill Gates. A year and a half after their separation was complete, however, the 67-year-old seems to be in a new romantic relationship. According to PEOPLE, the billionaire is dating a long-time friend of his named Paula Hurd, though she hasn’t yet met his three children.

Sources say the two “are inseparable.” She’s known as a “mystery woman,” though their inner circle says their romance is “no mystery.” They made headlines earlier this year while sitting next to each other at the Australian Open Men’s Singles. Tennis is a game they both love, and they’ve previously been chatty at other matches.

Before getting together with Gates, Hurd was with Oracle CEO Mark Hurd. In 2019, the 60-year-old tragically lost her husband, leaving her a widow. Before, she also worked in the tech industry, though she’s since moved on to become an event planner.

As for the philanthropist, this marks his first relationship since ending things with Melinda in August 2021. His 58-year-old ex was apparently seeing former reporter Jon Du Pre a few months ago. Ultimately, no confirmation came from the pair. At this time, the Gates matriarch seems determined on her path toward healing while continuing to parent her and Bill’s three children.

“I had some reasons I just couldn’t,” she said of her marriage’s dissolution in an interview with Fortune last year. “But the odd thing about COVID is that it gave me the privacy to do what I needed to do. It’s unbelievably painful, in innumerable ways, but I had the privacy to get through it.”

While Bill doesn’t seem to be hiding his new relationship from the world, there’s still much to be learned about Hurd. A report from PEOPLE reveals that she studied at the University of Texas and obtained a bachelor’s degree in business administration in 1984. Additionally, she has two daughters, Kathryn and Kelly, from her late husband.

Apart from their love of tennis and experience working in tech, Gates and his new girl are both avid philanthropists. Specifically, Paul has given large sums of money to Baylor University’s Give Light Campaign. Read more about that here, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.

Kevin Gates & Wife Dreka Share BTS Of “Breakfast” Music Video Shoot

by

Kevin Gates recently shared some behind the scenes clips with his wife Dreka from a shoot for an upcoming music video. While they teased it previously with some clips of the video itself, these clips are much more wholesome. For example, they show both their excitement over the video shoot and displayed how much fun they had. Moreover, the first video they shared portrayed them reviewing some footage. Following a particular moment (a shot? A transition? We don’t know), the Louisiana rapper exclaimed excitedly. “Oh my God!” he screamed at the unknown footage.

Furthermore, other clips included a conversation in what looks like a trailer and waiting in between takes out in the snow. Also, as they cycle through the clips, a short snippet of the song plays in the background. However, previous teases of the song gave a glimpse as to the shoot’s results. Moreover, both posted a teaser on Instagram showing a snowy estate and Kevin cooking Dreka… well, breakfast. “Who..I mean..what do you like for #Breakfast,” she captioned her post.

Meanwhile, the “2 Phones” MC recently spoke on Kobe Bryant’s death and how he felt something was wrong the day he passed. Also, he spit a mini-freestyle in the middle of his tale, which some people raised an eyebrow at. “The crash site [was] seven minutes from my house,” he remarked. “Rest In Peace the Black Mamba. This here going to Virginia, got a hundred keys in a black Honda. All of this was going on at the time. My nana came in. I told my tattoo artist- remember I told you? I said, ‘Man, I don’t feel like we should leave the house today. We just need to stay in today.’ She came right to the house. I hate to even say this, but that’s what happened. She came in the house and was like, ‘They say Kobe just had a helicopter crash.’”

“So you said ‘We shouldn’t leave the house before?” Big Boy asked Gates during the interview. “Before that s**t happened,” Gates replied. “That s**t happened seven minutes from my house. Like, weird s**t like that always be happening to me.” Regardless, stay logged into HNHH for the release of the “Breakfast” music video, check out the BTS clips below, and come back for the latest on Kevin and Dreka Gates.

Beyoncé Shares Grammys BTS Video, Dances With Jay-Z & Poses With Trophies

by

The Grammy Awards have come and gone for another year, though our favourite celebrities continue to reflect on their wins (and losses) all across social media. The latest to do so is one of the night’s biggest champions – Beyoncé. Throughout the prestigious ceremony, she markedly took home the trophies for R&B Song, Dance Recording, Traditional R&B Performance, and finally, Dance/Electronic Album.

Following Sunday (February 5) night’s televised presentation, the Houston-born vocalist shared a commemorative post on her Instagram. “To my Hive, thank y’all so much for all of your love and loyalty,” she began. “Big thank you for the ‘BREAK MY SOUL’ and ‘CUFF IT’ wins!!! To The Dream, Tricky, HOV, and Big Freedia. I love y’all!”

Beyoncé went on to name-drop Syd, Nova Wav, Ristorp, Raphael Saadiq, and Nile Rodgers for their help in the winning efforts. Additionally, she praised Sabrina Claudio, Nick Green, and Patrick Paige II for helping out with “PLASTIC OFF THE SOFA.” Of the track, she says, “[It’s] my favourite song on ‘RENAISSANCE’ most days. It’s hard to pick though. Haaa.”

In the days since the 41-year-old has kept the Grammy content coming our way. A closer look at her glamourous outfit came earlier this week. Later, on Wednesday (February 8), the “Baby Boy” hitmaker gave us a behind-the-scenes video that includes plenty of big smiles. Soundtracked to the newly released “CUFF IT (WETTER REMIX),” we see footage of Queen B dancing with her husband, posing while cameras snap, and getting emotional while accepting an award on stage.

Other famous faces who appear alongside Beyoncé in the new video include former Destiny’s Child member Kelly Rowland and her mom, Tina Lawson. Seeing as the performer is now tied for the title of most-decorated Grammy artist of all time, she’s got no shortage of bragging rights and prestige within the music industry.

Her RENAISSANCE album continues to be celebrated by friends and fans near and far. Unfortunately, Beyoncé’s Adidas x Ivy Park collection hasn’t been getting the same love as of late. Earlier this week, reports revealed that the streetwear brand underperformed by 86% last year.
