Nia Long Speaks On Dating After Split From Ime Udoka

by

Nia Long shared her thoughts on dating weeks after she broke up with NBA coach Ime Udoka. While dating rumors continued to hit her left and right since, the actress set the record straight. Overall, from what she said on The Drew Barrymore Show, she’s not in any rush.

Moreover, this news comes after Udoka’s public cheating scandal, which exploded in September of 2022. The coach had a consensual but inappropriate relationship with a staffer for the Boston Celtics, and Long split with him months later. However, when she spoke to Barrymore, she shared that she’s got her “eye on one person.

“I’m not saying,” she joked. “I’m never telling.” Afterwards, the host shared that she enjoys the dating process. Then Nia admitted that she’s a bit anxious about the prospect. “You do? I’m so nervous,” she stated. “Are you on the dating apps? We gotta talk about this.”

Also, the 52-year-old said confirmed that she’s “so single” at the moment. Still, rumors recently spread of a potential romance between her and R&B singer Omarion. Moreover, The Shade Room shared a video of them on a red carpet where they took pictures together and Long grabbed his hand. “The smile on Omarion’s face says it all!” TSR captioned the post.

However, Nia Long even went to the lengths of commenting on that post to get her say in all the gossip. “Everybody simmer down…” she wrote. “I’m single AF.” With all these people breathing down her neck, she might relate to what she said about Will Smith carrying a burden.

“I will always love him,” she said to Yahoo. “He’s had an incredible career, and he’s carried a burden for many years to try — to represent what perfection looks like. Or what achievement looks like… I don’t think that — at least when we were growing up — there was room to be human. I think he’s now able to be human.

“We all have our moments in life where we need to reconcile things that we suppress,” she continued. “And I think — it’s hard growing up in this business and being front and center every day, all day. I’ve had some pretty devastating moments in my life over the last couple of months, and I’ve had to just say ‘It’s alright. You’ll pick yourself back up’ — oh, my God I’m about to cry. You pick yourself back up, and you keep it moving.”

Still, what do you think of Nia Long’s thoughts on dating after her split from Ime Udoka? Whatever the case, let us know in the comments down below. Also, as always, check back in with HNHH for the latest pop culture gossip and relationship rumors.

DJ Mustard Paying For Chanel Thierry’s Living Expenses & Credit Card Bills Amid Divorce

by

Mid-way through 2022, news of DJ Mustard and Chanel Thierry’s divorce shocked many in the music industry. The long-time lovers were together for years prior to the producer’s rise to fame (12 in total). She previously described their separation as “more than heartbreaking.”

Before they were married in 2020, they had three children together. “Finally after three years we decided to take a step out on fate, and date. When I got pregnant with Kiy I was so scared, you told me ‘I got you, I got us.’ I dropped out of college, moved out my mom’s, stayed in YG’s garage for a while (yup, that’s what love will do). Then to your moms, until we got enough money to get our apt,” she recalled of how their family came to be.

Fast forward to 2023, and Mustard and Thierry are feuding like never before. According to documents obtained by Radar Online, his co-parent claims that he’s failing to meet the terms of their financial agreement. However, the California native shut down these allegations, coming back with a court filing of his own.

The DJ says that his ex is making the process difficult for them both. At the same time, he’s been paying for several of her living expenses as well as supporting their offspring.

The new documents reveal that Mustard is seeking joint legal and physical custody of their kids. As for child support, he’s willing to pay the previously agreed-upon amount of $18,342 a month. While it sounds high, Thierry originally requested upwards of $80k for the same payment.

“Chanel’s claim that I have starved her out financially since separation is a flat-out lie,” the 32-year-old writes in his filing. “From the time Chanel and I separated in May 2022, I continued to uphold my obligation to support her and the children. I continued to pay all of Chanel’s living expenses, including all of her credit card bills. I also continued paying Chanel’s housing costs and the children’s expenses including private school tuition.”

The father of three also believes his ex is disregarding their joint parenting plan. Consequently, he says the public is holding him in a “false and defamatory light.”

In response to his, Thierry disputed every saying she was being financially starved. “I cannot control what the media outlets pull from my social media page and what they infer from my writings,” she wrote. On the advice of her attorney, she’s also been “more cautious” about her social media interactions amid the divorce.

The exes began mediation early this month. The family matriarch allegedly said that the music star hasn’t been agreeing to anything “that would benefit the children and not himself.”

Before things became increasingly heated between the former couple, Mustard took a moment last spring to address some of the circulating rumours. At the time, rumour had it that Chanel cheated on him, resulting in their union’s demise.

La La Anthony Reflects On Love Life, Marrying Carmelo Anthony At A Young Age

by

Following La La Anthony’s separation from her ex-husband, Carmelo, her love life has been a hot topic in the media. The actress has a wide-spanning circle of female friends throughout Hollywood. This puts her in contact with some of the industry’s most eligible bachelors.

However, the BMF actress has maintained her single status for some time now. Much to fans’ pleasure, she often talks about her dating struggles in interviews. While on Call Her Daddy, she vented about the abundance of young men sliding into her DMs. More recently, she told TMZ that she felt as though no one wants to date her.

In that same conversation with the gossip site, Anthony made it clear that the 22-year-olds attempting to hit on her don’t have much of a chance. Still, she did quote Aaliyah, flirtatiously saying, “age ain’t nothing but a number.”

With Valentine’s Day rapidly approaching, it looks as though the mother of one may have to turn this year into a Galentine’s affair. She sat down with The Shade Room for an interview earlier this week. At the time, she candidly discussed some of her relationship regrets.

“I started off really young in my relationship. [I] maybe would have tried to [take] my time a little bit more and learn more about love and partnership and marriage,” Anthony began. “And kind of not just jump right into such a heavy, heavy relationship so quickly.”

When asked about her “type” in the same conversation, the 40-year-old shared that she’s not interested in keeping herself in a box. “I want to be open. Like I don’t want to just have a type,” she shared. “I want to be open to maybe a type that I wouldn’t think was my type or something. That’s not the norm that people would expect from me. I think when you are dating, you do have to be open. Because if you have this super checklist, right, then I don’t think you’re gonna find anybody.”

For Anthony, romantic highlights in a man are a great personality, strong communication, and honesty.

In other news, Anthony revealed in another recent interview that she once had aspirations of pursuing a rap career. They obviously never transpired, though she did reveal that her entire top five favourites list is covered by just one artist.

Blueface & Chrisean Rock Married In LA, Music Video Filmed During Ceremony: Report

by

Despite all their recent drama, it seems as though Chrisean Rock was right about her marriage prediction. The Crazy In Love star has obviously made it known that she would love for Blueface to put a ring on her finger.

On top of this, the Baltimore native has also revealed that she’s pregnant, and plans to keep the child. Initially, her co-star denied paternity, accusing her of getting intimate with multiple other men in recent months.

On his birthday last weekend, Blueface told the world that he and Chrisean and done for good. Since then, though, she fought two other women at his birthday party, bought him a celebratory cake, and released a collaborative single with him.

They also appeared on Jason Lee’s new Revolt podcast to dish on various topics. In that interview, the “Thotiana” artist told the host he doesn’t “believe in marriage,” but he still loves his partner. In response to this, Rock joked, “Can you be quiet and just go along? If I give him 3 billion dollars, he gon’ marry me.”

After Blueface screwed up his face, Lee asked, “Why do you think the money has to be involved for you to get married?” The reality starlet responded, “‘Cause nobody got his back,” leading to a playful fight between her and the father of two.

According to Media Take Out, Rock may have put her money where her mouth is. She and the 26-year-old were allegedly married in Los Angeles on Friday (January 27). The outlet states that everything was captured on camera, and footage is expected to appear in the California native’s upcoming visual.

Photos circulating online show the expecting mother in a gorgeous white gown. Instead of the standard black tux, Blueface opted for a cream suit. DDG was just one of the couple’s famous friends who attended the ceremony.

While some think this is all for show, a member of BF’s team apparently told the outlet that the marriage was legal. “The wedding was for [Blueface] video but it’s legal. They signed paperwork and everything. It’s legal.”

The controversial couple has been seriously in their bag lately. Aside from using their alleged wedding to shoot a music video for Blueface, they were also filming the visual for Chrisean’s “Lit” music video during their appearance on No Jumper last week.

At the time, the 22-year-old dramatically left the studio due to an emotional outburst. Surprisingly, they made the creative decision to use footage from the fight in their upload. See it for yourself here, and tell us your thoughts on the rumoured newlyweds in the comments below.

Kanye West Under Investigation For Alleged Battery, Kim Kardashian Refuses To Comment

by

The end of 2022 saw the previously rampant Kanye West headlines take a brief intermission. Less than a month into the new year, though, the father of four is back in the media once again and is also now an alleged suspect in a battery investigation after kicking his weekend off on a tense note.

On Friday (January 27), The Life of Pablo artist was leaving his daughter, North West’s basketball game. At the time, he noticed the paparazzi hot on his trail. In a viral video, Ye exits his car to confront one of those filming him yesterday afternoon. As Page Six notes, it remains unclear if she was a member of the media, or simply a fan. Regardless, she refused to stop recording him throughout their exchange.

“You didn’t have to run up on me like that,” the 45-year-old told the woman filming from inside her car. “If I say stop, stop with your cameras!” Apparently, her argument was that his celebrity status gives her the right to capture content as she pleases.

In response to this, West reached into the vehicle, grabbed her phone, and subsequently tossed it out before walking away. Afterward, he got confrontational with a paparazzi, though it’s unclear what words those two were exchanging.

Police sources have been in contact with TMZ regarding the incident. They say that the Ventura County Sheriff’s Department came around 4:30 PM. Upon arrival, they watched video evidence of the altercation. Later that day, the lady whose phone was thrown by Ye left the station after chatting with officers.

As we wait for further details to emerge, social media users have been passing the video around. In the same clip, West confronts another group of paps who were recording the situation. “You want me to be running up on your kids’ games like that?” the recording artist asked.

In defence, one of the cameramen said, “There’s a hundred of us.” The Yeezy founder still wasn’t having it. “Everybody needs to stop when I see my kids. If I need to see my kids, you can’t photograph me. It’s called human rights,” he clapped back.

After this, Ye went back to his own vehicle. His new bride was waiting in the passenger seat, watching the drama unfold.

Interestingly, ex-wife Kim Kardashian also got questions about the ongoing situation. However, she made it clear it’s not something that she’s willing to speak on. “Don’t talk to me about that!” she yelled at the paparazzi as she was leaving her kids’ basketball game with Tristan Thompson last night.

Besides yesterday’s headlines regarding his alleged battery, Kanye has also been in the news lately for his new marriage to Bianca Censori. The couple has been stepping out together more frequently than ever, though their latest evening out on the town certainly raised some eyebrows thanks to the rapper’s attire.

Amber Rose Says She Wants To Be Single Forever

by

Amber Rose recently expressed that she wants to be single forever, and fans can’t blame her. While the star model dated a few recognizable stars back in the day, it seems she’s looking forward to an easier life. Moreover, she opened up on the Sofia with an F podcast to share her thoughts on men.

“It’s worse than ever,” she expressed. “They’re pretty disgusting out here. They’re f***ing gross. Like, I wanna be single for the rest of my life.” Furthermore, she stated that she’s not down to share her home or life with anyone. Also, she doesn’t feel comfortable introducing a new man to her children. However, she particularly emphasized the physical aspect of it. “I don’t want to have sex … It’s so gross. I don’t want it.”

From Rose’s words, it seems dating dissuaded her from relationships with men, which she sees as out of the question. Still, the 39-year-old’s past probably led her to this conclusion. For example, she dated Kanye West, Wiz Khalifa, 21 Savage, and Alexander “AE” Edwards. Moreover, she claimed that AE cheated on her with at least 12 different women. Later, they split over the summer in 2021, and she’s been (publicly) single ever since.

Meanwhile, Amber will probably have more time to focus on other endeavors. Recently, she said that she could beat her friend Blac Chyna in a rap battle. Moreover, she entertained the idea on Drink Champs with N.O.R.E and renowned battle rapper Murda Mook. After the host suggested that she face Black Chyna on the stage, Amber confidently stated that “she’ll lose.”

Also, she got into a heated discussion with Mook over women with “no talent” in the industry. Moreover, she called out his dismissal of “untalented” women who make a lot of money from what they do. To retort, Rose asked whether that was their fault, or rather consumers who want the same thing or can’t understand those expressions of self.

Still, what do you think of Amber Rose wanting to be single forever? Whatever the case, let us know in the comments down below. Also, as always, stay tuned to HNHH for more pop culture gossip, curious statements, and relationship-bashing.

Common & Jennifer Hudson Reportedly Dating

by

Common and Jennifer Hudson are reportedly dating each other after rumors of a romance swirled since last year. Furthermore, RadarOnline on Thursday (January 26) that an insider close to the alleged couple confirmed their fling. While fans speculated on their status, rumors of a fling came after the rapper’s split from Tiffany Haddish.

Moreover, the Empire star knew the 50-year-old MC for quite some time before this report. However, RadarOnline‘s insider said that they got closer on the set of their upcoming thriller flick, Breathe.

“Things took a romantic turn while they were filming in Philadelphia over the summer,” they stated. “When the day’s shoot wrapped, they’d always find their way to each other’s side.

“They’ve kept up their communication since shooting the movie,” they went on. “They get together whenever their schedules allow. Of course, he’s known as a total flirt, but Jennifer feels there’s no harm in that, and she’s having fun.”

Furthermore, things spiced up for the two last year when fans spotted them at a romantic Philadelphia dinner. According to eyewitness reports, the Chicago rapper acted “cozy and flirty” with Hudson and there was “lots of cuddling and giggling.”

In fact, the 41-year-old actress opened up about that dinner on Entertainment Tonight back in September.

“People create their narratives of it, and it’s like, OK, you know, how you feel,” she expressed. “We shot a film together, and he played my husband. We gotta eat in between those moments.”

Afterwards, onlookers spotted the two again when Common picked Hudson up from her talk show in Burbank, California. Still, the two faced some high-profile breakups recently that contextualize this fling. Jennifer split from pro wrestler David Otunga in 2017 and Common broke up with Tiffany Haddish in 2021.

“I was disappointed,” Haddish told Jason Lee of the breakup on FOX SOUL’s Hollywood Unlocked Uncensored. “I was very disappointed, I was like, ‘Oh, OK. ‘Cause that’s not what you told me, but OK.’”

However, Common stated that they were just too busy to nurture their bond.

“I don’t think the love really dispersed,” he explained. “I just think it was like we weren’t feeding the relationship. Neither one of us is gonna stop. We both care about our crafts and what we do.

“We care about love too and partnership, but I think the energy that has been put into our careers and continuing to want to do the things that we do for ourselves and for the people,” he continued. “It was hard for me to balance all of that and keep the relationship fed.”

Still, what do you think of Jennifer Hudson and Common reportedly dating and forming a new romance? Whatever the case, let us know in the comments down below. Also, as always, come back to HNHH for the latest in celebrity gossip, freshly-brewed rumors, and hip-hop romances.

Xzibit Selling His Home Amid Divorce Battle

by

Xzibit just put his California home up for sale at $4 million amid a divorce battle with his partner of over twenty years, Krista Joiner. Moreover, the six-bathroom and five-bedroom-boasting crib in Porter Ranch went on Architectural Digest on Thursday (January 26). While their debacle resolved to mixed results, it seems this move is part of that mitigation.

Furthermore, this 5,710 square foot home has two kitchens, a pool with a Baja shelf, a swim-up bar, a built-in fire pit, and a beautiful L.A. view. Still, the amenities seem relatively tame when talking about the Pimp My Ride host. However, it is just a house, and what sounds like a pretty sick one at that.

Regardless, Joiner filed for divorce in 2021 following six years or marriage and twenty years spent dating. First, the rapper asked the judge to not force him to pay his ex any spousal support. Moreover, he claimed financial struggle given the pandemic shutting his performances and other endeavors down. Although he made those claims, Joiner retorted that his brother boasted about Xzibit’s cannabis business making over a million dollars a month.

Additionally, his brother Jason said that he had a stash of $20 million that he helped Xzibit with when needed. In a since-deleted Instagram post, he called his ex’s claims “bulls**t” and warned that “there will be blood” on her hands. Also, he said that she and his brother really “outdid” themselves this time.

In August, the court ordered the L.A. rapper to pay Joiner $6,000 a month in support. Moreover, $2,239 is reportedly towards child support for their 10-year-old son Gatlyn until he’s 18. On the other hand, authorities designated $3,702 a month towards temporary spousal support. Also, he paid $50,000 for Joiner to hire a forensic accountant to revise his finances and $125,000 for legal fees.

Later, Joiner filed a lawsuit last November to be financially compensated for the rest of her life. In court documents, her legal team claimed that Xzibit agreed to comply if she remained a homemaker. While her team alleges that she’s done her part, they say that the MC hasn’t.

“In the event the parties’ relationship ended, all of the property acquired, or entities or businesses established, or which property or entities/businesses increased in value, during their relationship as a result of [Xzibit’s] skills, efforts, labor, and earnings, regardless of how the title was formally held, would be divided equally between them,” her attorney said in a statement.

Also, the suit alleges that Xzibit promised to cater to Joiner’s financial stability when she looked for external employment. Moreover, she seeks compensation for being a “confidant, companion, social and business partner, homemaker, housekeeper and consultant to Defendant in connection with financial and family matters.”

Still, what do you think of Xzibit selling his home amid his divorce with Krista Joiner? Whatever the case, let us know in the comments down below. Also, as always, log back into HNHH for the latest financial news and curious happening in the hip-hop game.

Amy Robach & T.J. Holmes’ “GMA3” Affair Leads To Exit From Network After “Witch Hunt” Mediation

by

Late last year, one of the most unexpected scandals to rock the internet was the revelation of Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes’ secret affair. The Good Morning America hosts previously worked together on-air for years. After the public found out about their private romantic relationship, though, they were quickly taken off television screens all across the nation.

Since then, the world has been curious to find out what the TV personality’s fate would be. Some said early on that they would both obviously be let go from ABC. After rumours came out accusing the Black anchor of sleeping with multiple other coworkers, gossip only began circulating faster.

According to TMZ, a marathon mediation session took place on Thursday (January 26), apparently ending with the GMA stars and the network severing ties. Both parties will likely receive payouts as per their contracts.

Sources tell the outlet that the meeting was “extremely contentious” and compared to “a witch hunt.” ABC reps are accusing both Holmes and Robach of various misconduct, including calling the latter out for having liquor in her dressing room.

Of course, this is usually a violation of policy. However, the accusation is being called “ridiculous.” Insiders state that ABC News executives themselves sent the alcohol to plenty of on-air talent. Additionally, the 49-year-old is facing accusations of coming to work drunk after attending the College Football National Championship game.

A source calls these allegations “insane,” noting that Robach was feeling sleepy the following day. Of course, the romance was also addressed, with ABC stating that they waited too long to disclose it to executives. According to the network, the couple’s “behaviour on set” made other staff “uncomfortable.”

It’s been said that mediation will continue until the fine points of the star’s exit are laid out. Interestingly, when they initially booted Holmes and his partner off the air, they made it clear that no rules were broken by the affair, seeing as they were essentially equal in their roles.

The last time fans saw the charismatic duo on ABC was December 2. It remains unclear what their career plans are moving forward, but the internet certainly has plenty of opinions about the messy situation.
