Lil Dicky Was Humiliated By Chris Brown, John Wall, And Deontay Wilder At A Celebrity Basketball Game, And The Story Is Hilarious

April 10, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Lil Dicky joined Jason Kelce and Travis Kelce for this week’s episode of New Heights, and the episode was packed with Lil Dicky’s signature self-deprecating charm. Around the 40-minute mark, Jason asked Lil Dicky whether he’d had a “welcome to the industry” moment.

“Another story I’ve never told that just came into my head that’s perfect for this moment,” Lil Dicky said. The Dave mastermind then took the audience back to the 2015 BET Experience Sprite Celebrity Basketball Game. Back then, Lil Dicky still had imposter syndrome and did not feel like he belonged on the same roster as Floyd Mayweather, Snoop Dogg, Chris Brown, and John Wall.

“I don’t know how I got in the game to the point where I actually put a lot of stock and import in this game,” he explained. “I got there an hour early to warm up because I literally thought a way that I could get ahead in this industry faster will be, like, scoring 30 points in this game.”

Instead, Lil Dicky was on the bench, and while Chris Brown called Lil Dicky “a dope rapper” pre-game, he also rained on Lil Dicky’s parade. John Wall was the team’s coach and eventually told Dicky he could go in as a substitute for Brown.

“I walk up to Chris, and I’m like, ‘Yo, I’m in for you,’” Lil Dicky said. “And he goes, ‘I’m not coming out.’ Then, there’s 11 guys on the court. Everyone is matched up. I’m clearly the odd man. I look to John Wall, like, ‘Coach!’ And John Wall brings me back over. [The] first thing I say is, like, ‘John, get a grip and have some authority on your team.’ It’s humiliating to send me out there and then pull me back in. It’s so emasculating.”

Once Lil Dicky finally got in the game, he was rewarded by getting “fouled so hard by Deontay Wilder — at the time, heavyweight champion of the world.” He concluded, “I get up. I missed two free throws, and then I played one more meaningless minute. I moved to the end of the bench and just chose not to even make myself available for the rest of the game.”

Travis Kelce Unveils What Taylor Swift Has Taught Him About Music

April 3, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift were the talk of the NFL world this past year. Overall, they got together very early on in the season, and they did not look back. It was a very interesting time for the NFL, as they plastered the couple everywhere. At the end of the day, it was a huge marketing ploy for the NFL. They made millions of dollars from this, and so did the Kansas City Chiefs. Moreover, it helped that the Chiefs won the Super Bowl, thus making this the perfect end to a Cinderella season for the league.

Now, the offseason has arrived, and the two are still together. Some thought the relationship was just for publicity and that after the season, they would be done. However, that has not been the case at all. Instead, the two have defied expectations, and remain together. It is a true demonstration of love, and you cannot help but be happy for them both. That said, as per Billboard, Taylor is teaching Travis a lot about music.

Travis Kelce Praised For Film Investment

March 17, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Travis Kelce has been praised for his investment in, and executive producer role on, an upcoming dark comedy called My Dead Friend Zoe. “He wanted to support veterans. That’s what I heard — he wanted to support veterans and someone pointed him to our film. It’s all about the ‘why’ and I feel like if anybody has the right ‘why,’ they’ll succeed,” gushed the film’s lead, Sonequa Martin-Green. The film follows an army vet who struggles to reacclimatize to civilian life due to the lingering ghost of her deceased squadmate.

However, it’s not the only business venture Kelce is working on. This week, it was announced that Kelce and Patrick Mahomes are teaming up off the field to open a steakhouse. 1587 Prime will be located in the downtown Loews Hotel in Kansas City and is expected to open next year. “Travis and I have become frequent visitors of Noble 33 restaurants in other cities so it only made sense to bring something special to our own community in Kansas City,” Mahomes said of the venture. Mahomes and Kelce have been a formidable on-field pair for nearly a decade now.

Furthermore, the couple is “scheduling their various projects” going forward in order to “see as much of each other as possible.” Kelce, who has attended shows in both Sydney and Singapore, is expected to do some traveling with Swift in Europe.

However, the couple deserves a break after a hectic start to the year. Swift started the second leg of her Eras Tour, performing in Japan, Australia, and Singapore. She’s due back on the road in May to tour Europe alongside Paramore. Meanwhile, Kelce picked up his third Super Bowl ring in one of the most entertaining modern Super Bowls. However, with some downtime, the couple now has a chance for some quality time away from the spotlight.

However, it wasn’t all bad. “Saw a tiger sitting up in a tree house — that sh-t was f-cking sweet. Saw a lion close up. When you hear [them roar], cause Taylor took the picture … you’re just like, ‘Oh my gosh.’ Let alone one, you see three of them run down from their rock, their perch, knowing they’re about to get fed. You see how fast and agile that thing is — dude it’s over,” Kelce continued.

Travis Kelce & Taylor Swift Face Backlash For Sydney Zoo Date

However, not everyone thought that Kelce and Swift’s trip was “f-cking sweet”. The couple is continuing to face a wave of backlash from PETA and other animal rights activists for their trip. However, the couple has been given a “pass” by noted PETA supporter Jennifer Coolidge. While Coolidge said she “understood” why PETA was mad, she didn’t think that Kelce and Swift’s date was malicious. Instead, she saw it as just a public couple going on what they considered a romantic date.

The couple were spotted enjoying the popular tourist attraction last week between shows on Swift’s ongoing Eras Tour. Earlier in the week, Swifties had been gushing over Swift’s reactions to the various exhibits during a solo trip to the zoo. Kelce, who was spotted in Las Vegas earlier in the week, reportedly flew from LA to Hawaii. He then stayed the night in the island state earlier in the week. He then reportedly transferred to a private jet that departed for Sydney the day before he was spotted at the zoo.
