Bhad Bhabie Denies Report Of Being Involved In Fiery Car Crash

December 16, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Bhad Bhabie has denied a recent report going around that she was the owner of a Lamborghini SUV that burst into flames after a crash in the San Fernando Valley, over the weekend. A representative for the viral rapper clarified the situation in a statement provided to TMZ on Monday morning. The outlet also published video footage from the crash site.

“This report is inaccurate. Bhad Bhabie was not involved in any car incident in Los Angeles this weekend. Furthermore, she does not own a Lamborghini.” Bhabie’s mom, Barbara Bregoli, also confirmed to the outlet that her daughter is safe and sound and was at home at the time of the incident. She also clarified that Bhabie doesn’t have a brother, contrary to the initial report.

The false reports of a car accident come after Bhabie revealed she is battling cancer. “I’m sorry my cancer medicine made me loose [sic] weight,” she said in a recent Instagram story, caught by the Los Angeles Times, before confirming that she is “slowly gaining it back.” Afterward, some users on social media began theorizing that she may have been faking the news, which prompted a firm response from Barbara Bregoli. She wrote on social media: “I pray to God one of your children never get cancer. I’ve had it twice. How dare you say my daughter’s faking this.”

Bhabie first came into the public eye after an appearance on Dr. Phil, went viral in 2016. During the show, she famously remarked, “Catch me outside, how ’bout that?” A year later, she launched her music career with the debut single, “These Heaux.” She’s since released several more popular singles including “Hi Bich” and “Gucci Flip Flops,” which features Lil Yachty.

Bhad Bhabie Provides First Update Amid Her Frightening Cancer Battle

November 25, 2024 by newhiphopnews

There’s some breaking news regarding Bhad Bhabie and her harrowing cancer diagnosis. According to TMZ, they ran into the rapper and viral sensation at LAX over the weekend on Sunday. As she was entering the airport, the reporter asked how she’s been feeling since the news broke back at the start of November. They cite that Bhabie was sort of caught off guard and wasn’t really able to provide much of a detailed description of her status. However, she did mention that she’s doing “okay” as of now.

It clearly sounds like she’s still processing dealing with this and who wouldn’t be. Something like this can turn someone’s entire life around and in the wrong direction for years potentially. We are continuing to send our condolences to and deepest prayers to Bhad Bhabie and her loved ones during this time. The diagnosis has been weighing heavily on her mind, which was evident after dropping the bombshell. Fans were wondering why she was visibly losing weight and she didn’t respond back in a friendly matter in the slightest.

Bhad Bhabie Seems To Be Taking Things Day By Day

“I’m sorry my cancer medicine made me lose weight. “I’m slowly gaining it back. So, stop running with the worst narratives.” This life-altering moment has also taken a toll on Bhabie’s mother, Barbara Ann Bregoli, who also lashed out at others constantly pestering and questioning the situation. “How dare you – you little vile piece of s*** – say my daughter would lie about something like that.” You’re a dad… How many children did you have through a surrogate?” Bregoli said to Perez Hilton who claimed that Bhabie was doing this for attention.

“I’m not even sure. You need to focus on them and not mine. Go find another way to make some money instead of talking s*** about other people.” At this moment, the type of cancer Bhabie is dealing with has not yet been revealed. Given how fresh this all is still, it could be some time before we get to learn that sensitive information.

Offset Dodges Question About Paris Brawl After Return To America

November 18, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Offset dodged questions about his recent brawl in Paris while signing autographs for fans in Los Angeles following his return to the United States, this week. In a video published by TMZ, he signs several pieces of memorabilia for fans but departs once being asked about his fight with members of the French rapper Gazo’s entourage.

As for the Paris brawl, TMZ reports that it took place outside of Hôtel du Collectionneur. Gazo was reportedly unhappy with Offset’s “lazy” cooperation with the production of a music video he had agreed to appear in. Gazo allegedly wanted a refund of the $150,000 he paid for the collaboration, which Offset refused to cough up. The two eventually made amends, with Gazo sharing a photo of himself sitting down with the Migos rapper on Instagram. Fans couldn’t believe they patched things up that abruptly. “Noway offset and Gazo went from chilling too fighting under 24hrs,” one user commented on the post. “A few moments later…,” another wrote with a laughing emoji.

Gazo isn’t the only person Offset has been feuding with in recent months. Following his split with Cardi B, his ex has been calling out him on social media on several occasions. “Bro, I wish the worst on this man,” she wrote in one rant online. “I never hated somebody soooo much and these b***hes be so thirsty to have him. Please take this man off my hands. This garbage bag is too heavy!”

Offset’s collaboration with Gazo, “Wemby,” is set to drop along with the rest of the French rapper’s Apocalypse album on November 29. Check out his run-in with TMZ following the Gazo fight below.

Ray J Accuses Diddy’s Celebrity Friends Of Begging For His Silence

November 14, 2024 by newhiphopnews

It’s no secret that Diddy is in for a long and difficult legal battle. Earlier this year, the Bad Boy founder was arrested and hit with sex trafficking and racketeering charges. He remains behind bars at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn awaiting trial, which is expected to begin in May 2025. He’s also facing several lawsuits from women and men accusing him of sexual assault, abuse, and more.

Amid all of this, there’s been a great deal of speculation about what other celebrities could have been involved in his allegedly nefarious activities. In TMZ‘s new documentary streaming on Tubi, The Downfall of Diddy: Inside the Freak-Offs, Ray J even alleges that he’s been contacted by some of these high-profile individuals asking him to keep quiet about what he knows. “They wanna tell me about certain things that happened with them and Diddy,” he alleges. “I don’t even know why I just said it. But I said it so, so what.”

This is far from the only shocking claim Ray J makes in the documentary, however. He also alleges that he’s heard of Diddy’s celebrity friends paying alleged victims for their silence. “I’m hearing about artists paying victims to keep their name out of it,” he explains. He also added that these celebs allegedly “had some affiliation with Diddy that they don’t want to come out, and they think [Ray J] might be the vessel for it coming out.” Ray J’s remarks arrive just weeks after he was confronted by Diddy’s sons at a Los Angeles Halloween party.

Quincy Brown, Christian Combs, and Justin Combs were reportedly unhappy with some comments Ray J made about their father and tried to fight him as a result. Following the incident, Ray J’s longtime manager David Weintraub shared his take on it, arguing that all they did was ruin the party. “That was an unfortunate incident,” he told TMZ at the time. “It was a great party. It got ruined by little kids. Trying to fight a big boy.

November 13, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Ray J is alleging that Diddy’s celebrity friends are paying alleged victims to keep their names out of any claims they’ve made against the Bad Boy mogul. Ray J made the allegations during an interview with TMZ for The Downfall of Diddy: Inside the Freak-Offs.

“I’m hearing about artists paying victims to keep their name out of it,” Ray alleged to the outlet. When presented with the inverse situation, victims asking for money in exchange for their silence, Ray added: “Here’s the other way around that: I’ll give you money. Please don’t talk.” He also claimed that people keep calling him up because they “wanna tell me about certain things that happened with them and Diddy. They wanna talk to me about what happened to them. They call me, they feel like they can trust me.” He also said these alleged celebrities “had some affiliation with Diddy that they don’t want to come out, and they think [Ray J] might be the vessel for it coming out.”

The interview release comes after Ray claimed people tried to shoot him, earlier this week. Taking to his Instagram Story on Tuesday, he said: ” “N****s just tried to shoot me and tried to kill me and you want me to apologize n***a? F*ck you!” He never revealed who allegedly shot at him.

Ray J Speaks About Diddy’s Allegations

The Combs family has allegedly taken issue with Ray’s persistent discussions of Diddy with the media. He reportedly nearly came to blows with Diddy’s children, Christian, Quincy, and Justin, after a run-in in Los Angeles following a Halloween party. Luckily, Chris Brown stepped in before the argument turned physical. Diddy has consistently denied all of the allegations he’s faced over the last year. Check out Ray J’s interview with TMZ below.

Diddy’s Alleged Victims Reportedly Continue To Come Forward After Arrest

October 2, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Diddy’s legal battle continues, and according to TMZ, even more alleged victims of his have come forward in recent days. This is because of the mogul’s recent arrest in New York City, a source tells the outlet. Reportedly, the fact that Diddy is behind bars has made his alleged victims feel more comfortable speaking up.

The outlet reports that these alleged victims and witnesses are working with federal prosecutors, and providing them with any info they might have on his alleged wrongdoings. The source also revealed that the feds are fielding numerous calls from people alleging that they know something or have been a victim of Diddy. The news arrives shortly after attorney Tony Buzbee announced that he’ll be representing 120 individuals who plan to take legal action against the Bad Boy founder.

Source Claims Alleged Diddy Victims Feel More Comfortable Speaking Up While Mogul Is Behind Bars, TMZ Reports

During a press conference earlier this week, Buzbee explained that these individuals accuse Diddy of sexual assault and abuse. 25 of the individuals claim to have been minors when they were allegedly victimized by Diddy. Erica Wolff, an attorney representing Diddy, denied these allegations on his behalf earlier this week.

“As Mr. Combs’ legal team has emphasized, he cannot address every meritless allegation in what has become a reckless media circus,” Wolff told Rolling Stone. “That said, Mr. Combs emphatically and categorically denies as false and defamatory any claim that he sexually abused anyone, including minors. He looks forward to proving his innocence and vindicating himself in court if and when claims are filed and served, where the truth will be established based on evidence, not speculation.” What do you think of sources telling TMZ that more alleged Diddy victims have come forward since his arrest?

Diddy’s Lawyer Tries To Explain Why He’d Have 1,000 Bottles Of Baby Oil

September 25, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Diddy’s lawyer, Marc Agnifilo, sat down with TMZ for a new interview in the wake of the Bad Mogul’s arrest in New York City, last week. In doing so, he discussed the federal indictment against his client mentioning 1,000 bottles of baby oil being found on his property.

“I can’t imagine it’s thousands,” he said. “I’m not exactly sure what the baby oil has to do with anything… I don’t know what you need 1,000 for. One bottle of baby oil goes a long way. I don’t know what you need 1,000 for. He has a big house. He buys in bulk. I think they have Costcos in every place where he has a home. Have you sat in the parking lot of a Costco and seen what people walk out of there with?”

Agnifilo previously defended Diddy storing baby oil in his home while speaking with The New York Post. He told that outlet: “These are consensual adults doing what consensual adults do, you know, we can’t get so puritanical in this country to think that somehow sex is a bad thing because if it was there would be no more people.”

Marc Agnifilo Discusses Diddy’s Indictment

In the federal indictment, the U.S. Attorney’s Office goes into detail about Diddy’s alleged “Freak Offs.” The document alleges: “Combs’ sexual abuse of women included causing them to engage in frequent, days-long sexual activity with male commercial sex workers, some of whom were transported over state lines. These events, which Combs’ referred to as ‘Freak Offs,’ were elaborate sex performances that Combs arranged, directed, and often electronically recorded. To ensure participation in Freak Offs, Combs used violence and intimidation, and leveraged his power over victims.” Diddy has pleaded not guilty to the charges. Check out Agnifilo’s comments on the indictment with TMZ below. Be on the lookout for further updates on Diddy on HotNewHipHop.

Amber Rose Backs Donald Trump’s Baseless Claim That Haitian Immigrants Are Eating Pets

September 20, 2024 by newhiphopnews

After beginning her career as an outspoken feminist and previously stating that she would “never” support Donald Trump when he ran for president in 2016 and 2020, Amber Rose has made a full 180. She spoke at the Republican National Convention after becoming a vocal supporter of the party’s presidential nominee earlier this year. That decision was met with heavy criticism. Fans pointed to her “SlutWalk” initiative and previous support for sexual assault survivors, while pointing to Trump’s lengthy list of sexual assault allegations.

Trump came under fire after his debate with Kamala Harris for several reasons. The biggest reason being the assertion that Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, are entering the town and eating residents’ pets. Moderators David Muir and Linsey Davis of ABC News immediately refuted the quote, citing a lack of credible evidence. But, the damage was done. Trump’s quote quickly went viral, spawning memes and, evidently, leading to new believers in a wholly unfounded theory. In a brief interview with TMZ on Thursday, Rose backed Trump’s claim.

Amber Rose Backs Donald Trump’s Latest Big Lie

“Haitian immigrants are absolutely eating people’s cats and dogs in Springfield,” Rose stated. When questioned by the interviewer, who cited local officials saying the claims were false, Rose doubled down. She added that she’d seen social media videos corroborating the allegations. “I’ve seen videos online where people claim their pets were taken by Haitian immigrants,” Amber Rose said. Trump said something similar when challenged at the debate, claiming he saw this happening on television. Rose also claimed that Haitian people eating cats and dogs is part of Haitian culture, which is, again, false.

Wyclef Jean, a Haitian immigrant himself, previously denounced Trump’s claims. “On behalf of Haitian Americans, I ask that we stop these racist messages and accusations. Put our hands out in peace and say thanks for being my neighbor,” he said in a statement sent to TMZ on September 12. Amber Rose is not going to be the last to subscribe to this unfounded theory, nor will she be the last rap-adjacent personality to become such a public Trump supporter. As for Trump himself, he’s stated that he has no interest in debating Vice President Kamala Harris again. However, the vice presidential debate between Ohio senator JD Vance and Minnesota governor Tim Walz is on October 1.

Mariah Carey Getting Ready To Perform Again After “Couple Of Rough Weeks”

September 9, 2024 by newhiphopnews

According to TMZ, Mariah Carey is getting ready to tour once again. In a recent Instagram post, the R&B icon shared a short clip of her powerfully singing and prepping for said upcoming performances. She will be heading across the globe to China and then eventually Brazil (or vice versa) very soon. However, at the time of writing, nothing is officially set in stone just yet. But despite all that’s happened, she seems to be excited to get back onstage and perform in front of thousands. “Back at work. It’s been a couple of rough weeks, but I appreciate everyone’s love and support so much”, she said. “I can’t wait to see my fans in China & Brazil. Love you! ”.

Of course, those “couple of rough weeks” are a reference to the passing of her mother and sister. Both Patricia (87) and Alison (63) died on the same day during the weekend of August 23. Still, no one knows the causes of their deaths. There’s also the off chance that Mariah is talking about catching some flak from a friend of Alison’s in regard to not reaching out and that the singer knew about her sibling’s condition.

Mariah Carey Has A Message For Her Fans

Carey never addressed the matter publicly, but there’s probably a chance she talked to David Baker behind closed doors. He accused her of being aware about her dwindling life expectancy for about a month. Alison was reportedly heartbroken about never getting a “phone call or, better still, a video call”. There continues to still be a lot of questions about all of this, so stay with us for anything else regarding this ongoing storyline.

What are your thoughts on Mariah Carey heading back on the road to perform weeks after her mother’s and sister’s deaths? Are you surprised she’s already looking to back onstage? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding Mariah Carey.

Kanye West Takes North Toy Shopping In South Korea

August 24, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Kanye West brought his daughter, North, out toy shopping in South Korea after he traveled to the country for his Vultures 2 album listening party on Friday night. In pictures obtained by TMZ, Ye rocked a white hoodie while picking out different toys with his “Talking / Once Again” collaborator. It’s unclear whether it was happening simultaneously, but paparazzi also snapped Bianca Censori out with West’s other children as well.

As for the Vultures 2 listening party, West performed dozens of his most popular hits from throughout his career. In addition to his new collaborations with Ty Dolla Sign, he performed “All Falls Down,” “Diamonds From Sierra Leone,” “Jesus Walks, “Through the Wire,” “Hey Mama, “Heard ‘Em Say,” “Touch the Sky,” “Gold Digger,” “Runaway,” “Blood on the Leaves,” “Father Stretch My Hands, Pt. 1,” and many more songs.

Additionally, while performing “24,” West strangely gave Joe Budden a shout-out. “Jooeeee Budden! God’s not finished,” he sang. Budden responded to the moment while mimicking his singing on social media afterward. “Them Korean n***as was like, ‘what the f**k are you talking about,” he remarked. Budden wasn’t the only celebrity Ye dedicated a song to. For his Graduation classic, “I Wonder,” he brought up Drake and Ian Connor. “This one for Drake. This one for Ian Connor,” he said. Ye dropped Vultures 2 back on August 3. It peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 chart. He and Ty plan on releasing the third album in the trilogy later this year.
