2 Chainz & Halo Show Why They Are The Best Podcast Duo

by

2 Chainz is no stranger to being different. The punchline master has had quite an illustrious career in music and other ventures. Not only that, 2 Chainz is a dedicated father on top of being a savvy businessman, rapper, and most expensive tastemaker. The Pretty Girls Love Trap Music artist has an amazing relationship with his family and children. Specifically, the close relationship with his 7-year-old son Halo is seen all over the internet melting all hearts in its path.

The two have a podcast together called Me and Halo where 2 Chainz and his son talk about a variety of topics. From sports to school, to girls, the two have a candid conversation just as any other father and son would. If you’ve seen any clips from their podcast that 2 Chainz posts on his Instagram, you’ll see the cuteness factor is off the charts. Normally when you hear 2 Chainz, he’s giving game on staying ten toes down, puffin’ the best weed (gotta love that), and enjoying the finest luxuries. However, when he’s on his podcast with Halo, it’s a completely different vibe.

2 Chainz & Halo Go Viral (Again)

Instead of talking about the trap and all his hardships. You can see 2 Chainz the father on his podcast with his son. The low tone and nurturing words in the conversations between him and Halo show how close and solid their relationship is. Recently, the latest episode of the podcast, Halo revealed a little secret with his celebrity parent. In the video, Halo tells 2 Chainz that when he’s getting ready for school, he’ll sneak some of his dad’s (highly expensive) cologne.

Additionally, the 7-year-old detailed that he moves in on the cologne while his dad’s asleep. Chainz could only laugh and respond with “My cologne is very expensive Halo.” However, that didn’t stop his son from nabbing more his pop’s smell good. Halo shared that he receives tons of compliments from teachers and classmates on his expensive scent. The episode has garnered tons of views with many commenting that they want a son like Halo (can you say baby fever). The Atlanta native is showing everyone that you can have the busiest schedule in the world yet still make time for your kids. Does 2 Chainz’s podcast with his son make you wish you had a son to do a podcast with? Are they the best father-son duo on the internet right now? Let us know in the comments below!

Fake Video Of Coi Leray And Latto Fighting Goes Viral

by

On April 30, Twitter account @PoeBase shared a video two women fighting entertainment and gossip Twitter account Pop Base shared a video of two women fighting. The video, which contained a large TMZ watermark, was shared with the tweet “TMZ share muted video of Latto and Coi Leray fighting at Something In The Water Festival.” The account has been designed to parody the popular gossip account Pop Base.

The footage was not from TMZ or Something In The Water. Instead, the user behind @PoeBase had taken footage from wrestling promotion TNA Impact Wrestling, muted it, and added the TMZ watermark. The clip has quickly gone viral since being posted at 3:30am EDT. At the time of writing, it has garnered over 1 million views, nearly 6,000 likes, nearly 600 retweets, and over 700 quote tweets.

Fake Latto-Leray Fight Fools Fans, Irks Others

Part of the reason the footage has gone viral is that a number of people genuinely believe, or believed, that is real. The account is designed to mimic Pop Base as closely as Twitter allows. This air of credibility has helped fuel the tweet’s spread. The responses fall into three main categories – people who believe it’s real, people who get the joke, and people legitimately annoyed at what they think is the real Pop Base account. Furthermore, it’s just believable enough to be true, given the recent beef between Leray and Latto.

“Blocked because why are you spreading misinformation? It’s giving desperate” reads one reply. “This misinformation is strong with this one. Might have to block” reads another, who follows up with a link to their Spotify song “Go To Bed”. However, as mentioned, there are plenty of people who believe this is genuine footage. “I knew something was going to pop up off…..” reads one quote tweet. “Why is my coi fighting” reads another before tagging the actual Coi Leray. With Twitter moderation a mess, it’s easier than ever to pass off fake bullshit as the real deal on the internet. The tweet quickly received a pending Community Note to help fight the misinformation.

NFL Reporter Accidentally Says Jalen Carter Has A Big Dick

by

The NFL draft is always a weird time of year. Without fail, there is always something that goes viral. The 2023 NFL Draft was no different, tough tamer when compared to previous years. There was the video of a player’s dad slapping his son’s girlfriend on the ass. Meanwhile, Twitter had a lot of fun watching Will Levis not get drafted in the first round. Away from the draft, but still in Kansas City, Travis Kelce was luging beers off one of his Super Bowl trophies.

However, it’s not just the draftees who go viral. Sometimes it’s journalists who are the ones grabbing the internet’s attention. That’s exactly what happened this year. In particular, one overlooked moment from this year’s draft came before the picks even started to be announced, courtesy of the NFL Network’s Briget Condon.

Condon Accidentally Says Carter Has A Big Dick

The moment happened during The NFL Network’s pre-draft coverage on Thursday morning. Condon, who is a veteran reporter and has worked for The NFL Network since 2021, was covering the Seattle Seahawks per her assigned beat. At the moment of the unfortunate slip of the tongue, Condon was discussing Georgia defensive tackle Jalen Carter as a potential option for the Seahawks at #5. However, she, unfortunately, concluded her spiel by saying “big dick, big guy” about the 6″3, 314lbs player. Carter’s draft stock appeared to tank somewhat after he was linked to the death of a teammate in January.

Thankfully for Condon, the Seahawks did not choose to draft Carter at #5. Instead, the Seahawks drafted Illinois cornerback Devon Witherspoon. However, Carter was still a top-ten pick, going four picks later at #9 to the Philadelphia Eagles. Carter was one of three Georgia defensive players the Eagles took in the draft, adding to the two Bulldogs defenders they took in the 2022 draft. Of course, Condon’s error is one that hundreds of journalists have made over the years. There’s nothing especially scandalous about the comment, it’s just funny that it happened live on TV.

Dad Of New NFL Player Grabs Son’s GF’s Ass Live On TV

by

The pro football dreams of Iowa defensive end Lukas Van Ness came true on Thursday night. The 22-year-old was taken 13th overall in the 2023 NFL Draft by the Green Bay Packers. He is the highest-drafted Hawkeye since Tristan Wirfs went 13th overall in the 2023 Draft. He was seen as one of the top defensive ends in the draft.

Van Ness is a pure physical pass rusher. While his game is going to need some work to give him more versatility at the NFL level, he is going to be an absolute beast of a player in Green Bay. However, his dad has managed to overshadow van Ness’ moment in the spotlight thanks to a viral moment right after his son was drafted.

Dad van Ness Seen Grabbing Son’s GF’s Ass

Van Ness was not present in Kansas City for the draft, instead watching with family in Illinois. The large group of hardy corn-fed Illinoians went wild as van Ness receives the fateful phone call. His girlfriend, Frankie Kmet (white romper, brown hair) kisses her boyfriend on the cheek before getting up to hug Lukas’ dad, Jason. Kmet is the sister of NFL tight end Cole Kmet, who currently plays for the Chicago Bears. Their other brother, Casey, plays baseball at Notre Dame. Frankie is well known for her gorgeous appearance and Instagram presence. She and van Ness have reportedly been an item since last year.

Jason hugs his son’s girlfriend and then sends her back to the couch where Lukas is sat with a little double-tap on the ass. A completely forgettable and innocuous moment…if it hadn’t happened on live television. Social media went absolutely crazy over the moment as the draft continued. This had been preceded by confusion about all the women surrounding van Ness because apparently, people on Twitter don’t know what a family is. None of the parties involved have spoken out about the incident, because why would they? However, it is an evergreen reminder that the NFL Draft is the best place to be for weird moments. Congratulations to Lukas on being drafted and we wish him all the best in Green Bay.

Cam’ron Explains Viral “You Mad” Interview

by

Cam’ron has never been the type to stray away from the truth. He’s also not afraid to get down and dirty when it comes to beef. Whether it’s with his Dipset mates, former NBA players, or his It Is What It Is co-host Ma$e, Cam has no problem speaking his mind. Recently, Cam’ron appeared on the KFC Radio podcast. Moreover, during the interview, Killa explained some of his most notable moments that happened in the early 2000s. Not only that, Cam goes into detail about his infamous Bill O’Reilly interview in ’03.

“At the time, I was at Roc-A-Fella and they had a great publicist at the time,” Cam began. “A lot of these opportunities were presented but people were scared to take the opportunity,” he continued. “So particularly with the Bill O’Reilly ‘You Mad’ situation, they was like, ‘You want to go on Bill O’Reilly?’ I’m like, ‘I don’t know who Bill O’Reilly is. Who is that? Not really,’” Cam explained. Furthermore, Cam’ron revealed he didn’t know what channel he was going to be on, but it didn’t matter he was ready for the challenge.

Cam’ron Gives The Details

He later explained, “They like yo, ‘Cam he’s an asshole I’m telling you this!’” Secondly, Cam’ron noted that due to the internet, he wasn’t able to do proper research and look up his debate opponent. “So I’m like, ‘I don’t give a fuck.’ I’m me so I don’t care when I go up there but the whole staff at Roc-A-Fella is tryna warn me like, ‘Okay Cam’, and I really wasn’t giving a fuck.” Later the Dipset rapper explained how it was Bill O’Reilly who got disrespectful first. “So basically, we get up there and the first thing he says is, ‘Cam’ron who’s known for rhyming about pimpin’ bitches.’ And I’m like ‘Bet it’s on!’ From the jump! And that’s how it all came about.”

Cam’ron further elaborated how the former Fox host, who had his own show The O’Reilly Factor in 2003, blamed the rapper for his kids being influenced by the music he and his contemporaries were putting out. You can check out the full interview above. However, Cam noted that he knew of O’Reilly’s sexual assault allegations, and was prepared to use it against the host.

Lil Meech Confronts Fan In Leaked Video

by

Lil Meech is still a fairly new face to the rap and acting worlds. The son of Black Mafia Family member Demetrius Flenory Sr. (Big Meech), Lil Meech broke out in 50 Cent’s Black Mafia Family dramatization, BMF. In that, Lil Meech portrays his father, whom he also self-released his first single in honor of. Black Mafia Family was a drug smuggling operation that would later launch a promotion agency and record label as a front. Lil Meech’s father was arrested in 2005 and eventually jailed on a 30-year sentence. He is eligible for parole in 2028.

Since breakout in BMF, Lil Meech has earned a guest spot on Euphoria as well as a small role in the Machine Gun Kelly film Taurus. Furthermore, he has received praise for his small body of work. BMF currently holds an 80% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Meanwhile, Taurus holds a 62% rating. However, Meech is now going viral for demanding someone respect his personal space.

Lil Meech Tells Fan “Don’t Touch Me”

In the brief video, which has been uploaded across most social media networks, Lil Meech is seen at an event. An offscreen woman can be heard asking to see Meech’s drip and repeatedly tapping the actor on the arm. Eventually, Meech turns around and can be heard saying “Don’t touch me”. Meech then turns his back to the woman and ignores her. The camera then pans over to the woman, who gestures to Meech’s large BMF necklace and makes a comment about just wanting to see his drip. That is the extent of the footage that has currently been released, but it is more than enough to send the internet wild.

Response to the video has been mixed. Meech’s defenders argue that he has every right to personal space and the woman was out of line. However, there is a vocal set of detractors accusing Meech of acting like his father. Despite these, detractors, most people are either defending Meech or expressing confusion over why people are making such a big deal over the video. Regardless, people are talking about Lil Meech, and not because of his acting.

Dalai Lama Apologizes After Asking Child To “Suck” His Tongue

by

The Dalai Lama is the spiritual leader of Tibetan Buddhism’s Gelug school. The title is passed down from leader to leader. Each subsequent individual chosen as the Dalai Lama is believed to be the reincarnation of the last. Reincarnation is a core tenant of Buddhism and the search for the Dalai Lama is done incredibly rigorously.

The currently serving Dalai Lama is the 14th individual to hold the name. He was born in 1935, took the title in the same year, and was officially enthroned in 1950. He currently lives in India as a religious refugee, after fleeing Tibet due to the increasing threat to Tibetan sovereignty from the Chinese government. The 14th Dalai Lama is widely considered one of the more popular world leaders. However, he has been forced to issue an apology after a viral incident raised more than a few eyebrows.

Dalai Lama Apologizes For Tongue-Sucking Comment

In a now-viral Indian media clip, the Dalai Lama is seen greeting a young Indian boy. They stick their tongues out at each other and touch foreheads before the religious leader appears to try and suck on the tongue of the child. As the child recoils, the Dalai Lama can be heard asking if he can suck on the boy’s tongue. The presentation of the tongue is a common greeting in Tibet. It stems from a folkloric tradition to check that someone is not the reincarnation of a cruel, black-tongue Tibetan king. However, the attempt to suck on the boy’s tongue went too far for some people.

A brief statement released on social media channels said that the Dalai Lama “apologizes to the boy and his family, as well as his many friends across the world, for the hurt that his words may have caused.” The statement goes on to say that the leader “regrets the incident”. However, it also notes that “His Holiness often teases people he meets in an innocent and playful manner”. The incident is likely a traditional greeting taken too far in the wrong context. Despite this, it does not take away from the shock that millions felt as the footage made its way across social media.

Travis Barker’s Daughter Alabama Goes Viral For New Video

by

Alabama Barker, daughter of pop-punk star Travis Barker, is going viral on social media for a new video shared to TikTok. While this might be the first time some hear of her, others remember when she was much younger. Still, her clip did cause some discussion online.

Moreover, a lot of the meat of the Twitter threads came down to the fact that she’s 17 years old. Though the video clip is just her dancing with her friends, a lot of people found it too suggestive. Regardless, one user tweeted “No one ever said Alabama Barker was ‘ugly.’” Furthermore, they added, “We said she’s only 17 and too young to dress & behave the way she does. Cause she is.”

Furthermore, some were struck by how people were misidentifying her race or debating about it on social media. Still, some people had the record straight. Overall, there were tweets like “You telling me alabama barker looks biracial and expect me to take you seriously.”

“I want black women to stop being a halfway house for yt teenage girls when they can’t figure themselves out yet,” another added. “Alabama Barker is a prime example. Her family whiter than ranch dressing. Stop it lol.”

However, this isn’t the only time that Alabama Barker’s been somewhat called out online (because this is just a video, after all). Moreover, Iggy Azalea said that she and other TikTokers were “weird” for participating in a viral trend of her experiences. Furthermore, audio of the rapper airing out her frustrations with her ex Playboi Carti made rounds on TikTok.

“This man didn’t even come to see his son be born, he went to Philly to play the Playstation with Lil Uzi,” she said. “He felt that was more important than seeing his son be born, and I had a scheduled C-section.”

Meanwhile, Alabama’s father Travis is most well-known these days for his drum renditions of popular tracks and his relationship with Kourtney Kardashian. While some people cringe at seeing fans write “Kravis” online, they said they actually like the nickname.

Still, what do you think of Travis Barker’s daughter Alabama going viral for her recent TikTok video? However you may feel, let us know in the comments and peep some more reactions below. Also, as always, check back in with HNHH for the latest viral moments and celebrity debates in pop culture.

Kevin Durant Reacts To Viral Youth Basketball Clip

by

Kevin Durant is one of the best players to ever step on an NBA court. Having said that, he knows what it takes to be a high-level player. Furthermore, he understands what good sportsmanship looks like. After all, he has played in hundreds of NBA games.

Interestingly enough, everyone has a different view of what sportsmanship should be. However, one should probably stick to the opinions of those who have actually played the game at a high level. At the end of the day, they are the ones who have the best perspectives.

We bring up the topic of sportsmanship because of a video that is currently going viral on Twitter. Below, you can find some third-grade players doing some unique celebrations after every basket. Overall, it feels as though they are already participating in hoop mixtape culture, which has rubbed some people the wrong way.

Kevin Durant Speaks

Kevin Durant was paying attention to the discourse on social media, and he decided to weigh in. As you will see, he doesn’t seem to think any of this is a problem. In fact, he believes the kids are just doing what they’ve been seeing on TV all their lives.

“As a kid, I remember, we did what we saw the pros do…good shit lil homies,” Durant wrote. Needless to say, these kids have earned the KD stamp of approval.

While they may not be getting praise from anyone, some props from an actual NBA superstar are all that matter. Hopefully, KD’s words find their way back to these kids.

Let us know what you think of the clip above, in the comments section below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the sports world.
