JoJo Is Upset About “Once Again Not Being Invited” To “Award Show Season”

by

She is a singer whose career has spanned decades, so it comes as a surprise that JoJo struggles to receive invites to major events. It has been a busy few weeks for celebrities as they’ve taken to New York Fashion Week, the Met Gala, and the MTV Video Music Awards, and we’ve seen our timelines flooding with photos and updates from various events.

From current hitmakers to veterans to icons, red carpets were being taken over by entertainers from all sides of the industry, however, JoJo lamented on TikTok about not being asked to attend.

“Me watching yet another award show season go by and once again not being invited,” she wrote over a video of herself. “Whatever – I’m [about] to get my period – let me be in my feels.” She added a few more thoughts in the caption to the clip.

“I never talk about s*** like this nor do I think I deserve anything over anyone else – but I think I’ve lost any tiny bit of chill I have remaining,” she added. Her fans have rallied around her and hope that the next award season will be more lucrative.

Meanwhile, JoJo is gearing up for the release of her next project, Trying Not to Think About It, which arrives on October 1.

Nike Dunk Low “Ice” To Deliver Velvet Vibes For The Winter: Photos

by

One of the greatest shoes of all time is the Nike Dunk Low and thankfully for sneakerheads, the shoe is seeing a massive resurgence in 2021. After being dormant for a few years, the Nike Dunk Low is back and we could not be happier about it. All throughout the summer, this shoe has seen a massive amount of colorways and this hype will continue into the Winter with the “Ice” model that is pictured below.

As you can see in the photos unveiled by Nike, the sneaker has a silver base while all of the overlays are white velvet. The velvet fits the winter theme to perfection and to make things even better, there are some sleds near the back heel to really give off that Christmas look. This is one of the more unique Nike Dunk Lows we have seen so far and we’re sure it will be a big hit throughout the colder months.

So far, there is no release date for these, so keep it locked to HNHH as we will be sure to bring you all of the latest updates over the coming months. In the meantime, let us know what you think of these new kicks, in the comments below.

Kanye West Ascends To Heaven In His Gospel-Inflected ’24’ Video

by

Kanye West’s fascination with the afterlife forms the basis of his latest Donda video, “24.” The video appears to be an excerpt from Kanye’s third listening event for the album at Chicago’s Soldier Field, during which he simulated his ascension to heaven as his late mom (for whom the album is titled) watches on beatifically.

It’s only the second video to emerge from the album’s lengthy, chaotic rollout, after “Come To Life” also made use of a part of the Chicago listening in which Kanye was literally set on fire. And while the spectacle of his listening events and the hype for the album was enough to lift the project to the top of the Billboard albums chart, it certainly had its shortcomings, detractors, and downfalls, as collaborators like Soulja Boy and Todd Rundgren criticized the recording process (as well as its final result), Drake allegedly trolled Kanye by leaking his Andre 3000 collaboration (disappointing both Andre and Tyler The Creator in the process), and Drake’s Certified Lover Boy out-streamed Donda on its way to replacing it atop the Billboard 200. With all the drama swirling around the album, perhaps releasing more videos will return focus back to the music.

Watch Kanye West’s “24” video above.

Donda is out now on Def Jam. Get it here.

T.I. And Tiny’s Los Angeles Sexual Assault Case Was Dismissed As They Continue To Deny The Accusations

Atlanta trap rap pioneer T.I. and his R&B singer wife Tiny Harris have avoided sexual assault charges in Los Angeles after prosecutors decided not to move forward with the case, according to TMZ. A police report was initially filed earlier this year by a woman who claimed that the couple drugged and assaulted her after she met them in a club in 2005. However, according to court documents obtained by TMZ, the incident would be outside the statute of limitations, so they have decided not to pursue charges.

Meanwhile, T.I. and Tiny maintain that the multiple accusations against them — which have come from several women in the past year — are false, attributing the allegations to a cash grab led by a woman they “have had difficulty with” for “well over a decade.” In April, they demanded that the women accusing them of these incidents reveal their identities. T.I. addressed the accusations in his May track “What It’s Come To,” reiterating his demand for the alleged victims to come forward.

The cases against T.I. and Tiny were spearheaded by lawyer Tyrone A. Blackburn, who alleged to represent eleven women who brought forth similar accusations of drugging and assault. Since then, the couple’s VH1 show was canceled, and it was revealed T.I. won’t appear in the upcoming Ant-Man sequel.

Lakers Sign One More Player Ahead Of Regular Season

by

One of the busiest teams in NBA free agency this year was the Los Angeles Lakers. The team came into the offseason needing an overhaul and that’s exactly what they did as they traded for Russell Westbrook and signed various skilled free agents that will serve as solid role players for the entire season. With that being said, the Lakers have been looking for their 15th roster spot as they still need to fill out the team.

Finding the player to take on this role is always a challenge, especially if you are dealing with cap issues. The Lakers are already teetering at the edge and they needed someone who could come at a small cost.

According to Jovan Buha of The Athletic, the Lakers have found that guy as they have signed Cam Oliver to an exhibit 10 contract. The undrafted 25-year-old got to play four games with the Houston Rockets last season and he has been looking for NBA work ever since. While he might not be guaranteed a spot on the Lakers, there is no doubt that he’s a player who could find himself a bench role if he impresses in training camp and preseason.

The Lakers and the rest of the league will be engaging in preseason matchups in just a couple of weeks, which is great news for basketball fans who have been yearning for some competition.

Stay tuned to HNHH for more updates from the world of sneakers.

Tyga Shuts Down Nikita Dragun’s Attempt To Out Him

by

Nikita Dragun, a YouTuber and rapper who identifies as a trans woman, has been causing a lot of uproar on social media over the past 24 hours with her teaser video for her new song, titled “D.I.C.K.” Her use of other celebrities’ likenesses — like Asian Doll’s, for example — has led to heated back-and-forths online and scrutiny on Twitter.

One of the most sensational and heavily criticized moments in Nikita Dragun’s video, however, was when the rising artist appeared to out Tyga, who Blac Chyna recently claimed, “loves trans.” Hours later, Tyga has decided to publicly address the situation.

In response to the clip from Nikita Dragun’s video, Tyga calmly and respectfully addressed her allegations, revealing that they have previously worked together.

“My company shot and directed a music video for her a while back that never dropped .Not sure why she added my likeness to this,” Tyga explained before offering a token of wisdom to his followers. “Ladies and gentlemen clout kills.”

In response to Tyga’s tweets and Nikita Dragun’s decision to include those screenshots in her promotional video, many fans have been extremely critical of her actions. One fan argued that she should have made a better song instead of stooping down to this level, and Jacen Bowman, a makeup artist on HBO Max’s Legendary, also called her out for insinuating Tyga’s sexual preferences.

Check out some of the fan reactions to Nikita Dragun’s questionable promotion of her new song and video “D.I.C.K.”

Pascal Siakam Comments On Recent Raptors Trade Rumors

by

Pascal Siakam had himself an incredible campaign with the Toronto Raptors back in 2019 as he helped the team win its first-ever NBA title. The following season, Siakam became a bonafide star although his postseason production took a very obvious dive. After another disappointing season in 2021, there have been various rumors surrounding Siakam’s standing with the Raptors and whether or not the team is going to move forward and trade him.

In a new interview with The New York Times, Siakam got to speak at length about his time with the Raptors and how he feels about the rumors. As you will see, Siakam is keeping a cool head throughout all of it as the Raptors have yet to give him any indication that they want to get rid of him.

“It didn’t bother me really, because I never really heard anything from the Raptors,” Siakam said. “Even all the news I was seeing it was never like: ‘Oh. The Raptors wanted to give up Siakam for this.’ It was always like, ‘The Warriors like Pascal,’ or it was always, ‘The Kings like Pascal,’ or this. There was never nothing where it was like, ‘The Raptors wanted to give away Pascal.’”

After a season in Tampa Bay, the Raptors will finally be going back to Toronto and the team couldn’t be happier about it. Perhaps with the newfound motivation of being back home, Siakam and the Raptors can get back to their winning ways this season.

Kanye West Floats Through The Clouds In Visual For “24”

by

Kanye West’s DONDA has been a massive success from both a commercial and musical standpoint. Fans are confident that Kanye is back in his groove and it has led to some big sales numbers. As far as visuals are concerned, fans have the recent listening parties etched in their minds, especially the event in Chicago where Kanye performed in front of a replica of his childhood home. Perhaps one of the most moving parts of the event was when he played the track “24” which features his Sunday Service Choir.

The song came with a special video that depicts Kanye floating through the clouds and it was one of the more memorable sights throughout the listening party era in the DONDA rollout. Now, Kanye has officially released this video as a full-on music video, and it can be seen above. The key visuals are all still here as Kanye floats while the phrases “we’re gonna be okay” and “god’s not finished” ring throughout. The heavenly vibe matches the music to perfection and it is yet another example of the godly themes that are now found in Ye’s music.

Let us know what you think of this video, in the comments below.

Lil Nas X Threatens To Sue Himself With Parody Firm Billboards Promoting His Album

by
YouTube

Lil Nas X continues to be a master promoter in the week leading up to the release of his debut album. In addition to dropping a contractions video paying off the maternity photoshoot he shared a week ago, he’s now playing on the court-themed trailer for his “Industry Baby” video by sharing billboards threatening to sue… himself. The billboards, which popped up in Hollywood, are clear spoofs of similar cheesy billboard ads for real law firms. However, Nas’ billboards inform viewers they may be entitled to financial compensation for such silly reasons as being gay, being single, missing “the real America,” and crucially, hating Lil Nas X.

I’ve called Lil Nas X a masterful troll in the past but it bears repeating: The kid knows exactly how to turn any and all complaints against him into comedy gold, then use that gold to buy the adoration and attention of even more fans — and more complaints, ensuring a never-ending supply of promo fodder. Knowing that his Blackness, gayness, youth, and flamboyance will be used against him, he’s kind of like Eminem’s B. Rabbit in the 8 Mile finale, stocked up with lighthearted, self-deprecating gags that turn the light of scrutiny on his detractors and ensure that the crowd is firmly on his side.

Industry Baby, meanwhile, drops at midnight tonight via Columbia Records. It features appearances from Doja Cat, Elton John, Jack Harlow, Megan Thee Stallion, and Miley Cyrus — but no Black male artists, unfortunately. While some viewed that as intentional on Nas’ part, Kid Cudi called it part of hip-hop’s “homophobic cloud” — one that Nas’s new album hopes to help erase.
