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.

Andrew Tate Disses Women Who Go To Festivals

by

Andrew Tate just came through with one of his most bizarre and unnecessary takes in recent memory, and that’s saying a lot. Of course, it’s not uncommon for the controversial influencer to dish out takes about women, society, masculinity, and more from his bigoted perspective. However, in the wake of many recent events like Coachella, this was one of his weirder, albeit less outwardly hateful observations. Recently, the alleged human trafficker urged his followers on Twitter to steer clear of women who go to music festivals. He went on to explain his viewpoint and, unsurprisingly, gas himself up in the process.

“Avoid women who go to festivals,” Andrew Tate wrote. “Theyre either on some losers table whos feeding them cocaine or in a crowd of sweaty peasants because theyre a sweaty peasant. Endless instagram stories screaming and having ‘fun’ to prove to the world theyre worthless. Hard pass festih*es. Imagine being 24 and gorgeous and sweet and nice and finally getting a date with the Top G and he finds out you went to a festival when you were 19 and you get left on read and NEVER RECOVER. AND ARGUE WITH YOUR NEW MEN FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE BECAUSE THEYRE JUST NOT ME.”

Andrew Tate Strangely Disses Female Festival-Goers

However, that wasn’t all that Andrew Tate recently popped off about. In a separate tweet, he waved his usual flags of being the hero against the “establishment,” who he believes want to silence him. While that’s not entirely untrue, it’s clearly not for the reasons he thinks. “LGBT want me to disappear,” he tweeted. “Liberals want me to disappear. Big Pharma want me to disappear. War Mongers want me to disappear. Feminists want me to disappear. They have billions of dollars. Endless influence. But I am still the most influential man on the planet. Will they succeed? Gather Chi for the final breaths.”

Meanwhile, in since-deleted tweets, the 36-year-old alleged that he was poisoned. Given that he deleted them, he probably realized he was just being paranoid. As the world awaits the results of the investigation into his alleged crimes, he seems content to keep flaunting his views and inflammatory rhetoric online. Regardless, check back in with HNHH for the latest news and updates on Andrew Tate and check out his other tweet below.

“The Most Influential Man In The World” Keeps His Act Up

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.

Sukihana Disses Charlamagne Tha God On The Breakfast Club

by

The Breakfast Club recently had Sukihana on the show, who was very excited promote her upcoming single “Casamigo.” However, she found herself in a tough situation after host Charlamagne Tha God, well-known for his unfiltered takes, suggested that her song wouldn’t be a hit. Moreover, the “Love & Hip Hop: Miami” star said that many DJs, particularly DJ Clue, showed her a lot of love. When she said that they told her she had a hit on her hands, Charlamgne said that DJ Clue will tell that to anybody. Obviously, Sukihana wasn’t too happy about that, and she proceeded to blast the media personality on air.

“What, s**t, you’s a motherf***in’ liar,” Sukihana retorted against Charlamagne Tha God. “Under that two piece that you got on, you got a thong up your a** and your booty hole shaved. So I’ma let you be great, but we gon’ get back to this motherf***in’ hit. It’s shaved, it’s shaved. You like that a** licked. And there’s nothing wrong with that. You gon’ motherf***in’ respect a queen when you see one. I don’t give a f**k if DJ Clue lie. B**h, God tell the truth, and ‘Casamigo’ is a hit!”

Charlamagne Tha God Shouldn’t Have Doubted Sukihana

Of course, this seems a bit more confrontational out of context than what really went down. The rest of The Breakfast Club‘s hosts were laughing along, teasing Charlamagne Tha God and reacting with hilarity to Sukihana’s rant. All in all, it still made for a pretty hilarious clip that Charlamagne himself took in stride. He joked that he does have a thong on, and didn’t really try to stop the Delaware native or clap back at her. Considering how viciously she trashed DaniLeigh’s new song, he doesn’t want that smoke.

Regardless, pop culture actually got a surprising retrospective look at the 31-year-old artist after Jerry Springer’s passing. A clip of her on his show back in 2017 resurfaced, in which she performs and joins a couple on stage. No matter the context, her antics usually get a lot of eyes and ears on her on social media and beyond. If this Breakfast Club episode is anything to go by, it’ll almost always make for some quality entertainment. For more news and the latest updates on Sukihana and Charlamagne Tha God, log back into HNHH.

Coachella is obviously one of the biggest festivals to take place in the spring and summer months, but after it ends there’s still plenty more excitement and live entertainment to be seen. This weekend, Pharrell Williams’ Something in the Water is taking place in his home state of Virginia, and the lineup is seriously stacked, to say the least.

Method Man Dances Along With ASL Interpreter

by

Wu-Tang Clan just graced New Orleans, Louisiana with a stellar performance at the New Orleans Jazz And Heritage Festival. Moreover, all members (including Raekwon, RZA, GZA, U-God, and more) seemed to have a great time on stage as some of their best hits played. In particular, the crowd and the crew were really feeling their rendition of the classic “Can It All Be So Simple.” In fact, Method Man was very impressed with the American Sign Language (ASL) interpreter that helped them throughout the show. He had such a great time watching her do her thing that he danced along, imitating her hand motions and observing her with a big smile on his face.

Given his incredible catalog and wide range of experience in many industries, it’s always an event when Method Man is on stage. However, many fans were disappointed when he said he wouldn’t join the rest of the Wu for their “N.Y. State Of Mind” tour last year. While many thought that they wouldn’t get to hear his iconic verses live, fans in Newark, New Jersey got a special treat. Both Meth and Redman popped out to perform “Da Rockwilder,” “Wu-Tang Clan Ain’t Nuthing ta F**k Wit,” and “M.E.T.H.O.D. Man.”

Method Man Vibes Out With Sign Language Interpreter

On that note of extracurriculars, the 52-year-old got a lot of praise for his acting work on 50 Cent’s “Power Book II: Ghost.” That praise actually prepared him to deal with criticism as well, advice that he wanted to share with his peers. For example, Yung Miami recently got flamed for her performance on another G-Unit show, “BMF.” After she responded to some haters and the discussion went viral, Method Man chimed in with some blunt advice.

“F**k people,” he told a reported from TMZ who caught up with him and asked about the phenomenon. “People are mean. White noise, white noise. I love the City Girls, they’re dope.” Overall, it’s great to see the rapper lend a hand to the next generation. Clearly, he’s all about enjoying the moment and being proud of your work, and he shares that pride to and with others quite often, as this viral clip shows.

Curren$y Gets Paid In Weed To Perform Specific Song

by

Curren$y has been making headlines lately. Wiz Khalifa claimed that Curren$y got him into Air Jordans. Meanwhile, he dropped his new album, a collaboration with Jermaine Dupri called For Motivation Use Only Vol. 1. The artist, also known as Spitta, is also a major advocate for the use and legalization of marijuana.

Currently, 22 states have legalized weed, while a further nine have decriminalized it. This includes Curren$y’s home state of Louisiana, where it was decriminalized in 2021. However, Louisiana does not allow the home growth of weed for personal use. Furthermore, Curren$y’s love of that sticky green has led to a hilarious moment at a local show.

Curren$y Claims Fan Gave Him A Pound Of Weed

Curren$y shared a the reel of an attendee at a recent concert. The man can be shown throwing bags of weed onto the stage, which Curren$y accepts gratefully. In the caption of the post, the rapper reveals that “The homie threw a zip errrtime a dropped one of the records he really wanted to hear haha almost left with a pound haha”. More recently, he has posted an image of him enjoying a joint backstage. It’s unknown that photo features him lighting up his concert gift.

Apparently, it quickly became a trend among the audience, with a number of audience members also showering the performer in that good good. As Curren$y notes, he left the concert with almost a pound of weed to his name. For a man who had fought for marijuana as long and hard as he has, that’s a big payday. Curren$y is due to begin a small tour in early May. According to a post on his Instagram, he will hit up Sacramento, San Francisco, Seattle, Los Angeles, and Chicago. Maybe leaving Curren$y a leafy gift will become a custom at his concerts going forwards. The clip also comes days after 4/20, the annual celebration of all things weed. What do you think about Curren$y’s concert gift? Would you give up your weed for your favorite rapper? Be sure to check back at HotNewHipHop for all things hip hop related.

Cardi B Calls Out Online Haters

by

Cardi B has never been quiet on her opinions, or her beefs. She is currently collecting checks from YouTuber Tasha K while she awaits the verdict of a defamation lawsuit. She’s beefed with Akbar V in the past. And then there was the recent video where she took fans behind the scenes of her life.

However, Cardi’s outspokenness has garnered her a lot of haters. Not just in her beefs and in the music scene, but just out in the wider world. Obviously, there is the general misogyny aimed at a successful woman of color in the rap scene. But some people are just rubbed the wrong way by Cardi. However, the musician is now clapping back at hater culture and in classic Cardi fashion, she is not holding back.

Cardi B Says Haters Are “Nerds”

On April 28, Cardi tweeted out a message to the haters of the world. “That mean girl persona y’all put on for the internet don’t fool me. I can tell y’all were NERDS in high school.” The tweet comes a day after Cardi tweeted about a viral TikTok. In the video, a woman recounts her experience at a Houston Astros game where a group of women made fun of her. Cardi retweeted the TikTok saying “I would of put that ring to use”. Cardi also changed her profile picture on Twitter to an image of Penn Badgley from You. Badgley’s character is a serial killer who typically targets entitled assholes.

Additionally, Cardi’s comments about “mean girls” comes during her legal battle with blogger Tasha K. Cardi is currently awaiting a decision in a $4M lawsuit against the YouTuber, who is accused of making slanderous comments about Cardi. However, Cardi also elaborated on her tweet in a second retweet. “LmAOooo naaa it just be so cringe watching kids ,grown woman/Men be on some nasty stank ish on the internet when you was getting your face smushed In the hallway …MIRRORING the exact same people you use to HATE !” Safe to say that Cardi’s coming for your ass if you choose to be an ass on the internet.

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.
