In an age where it seems as if everyone is looking for their Andy Warhol-predicted 15-minutes of fame, Lauren London remains fiercely private about her personal life. The actress has been in the industry since 2003 when she made her debut appearance in the music video for Pharrell Williams and Jay-Z’s “Frontin’,” but she’s probably most famously remembered as Nu-Nu from the movie ATL alongside T.I.
However, London’s relationships with the father of her children—Lil Wayne and Nipsey Hussle—have often made headlines, and following Nipsey’s callous murder back in the Spring of 2019, London has dedicated herself to continuing his legacy. The Southern California native recently sat down with the Los Angeles Times to speak at length about her career, loss, and rebuilding after a tragedy.
“I think when really hard things happen to people it’s just hard to think that life will ever be sweet again. So that’s something that I’m learning again, is how to do that,” said London. “I lost what I would say is the love of my life. … So I had to go so deep within myself. I was so in a dark space and it was just like, ‘What is this? Who am I? God, please show me.’ … When you’re facing God face-on, you’re asking real questions and you want real answers. It wasn’t for play. I really wanted to know what was going on. So, I think it just has expanded because of my quest for peace.”
The actress spoke about meeting Nipsey back in 2013 after a few casual interactions. He reportedly slid into her DMs and their friendship grew into a romance. “Nipsey made the biggest joke that L.A. was my gang, that I bang L.A.,” she said. Since his passing, London has spent time focused on her family and her spiritual practices, but she eased back into the industry by starring in Without Remorse with Michael B. Jordan.
“I always say I’m a seeker of truth. I always say that. Because I want to know the truth,” said London. “I want to know what it really is, and I think that also has been what has helped me in my spiritual practice too. It’s a tenacity for God.”

The NBA, like many other leagues and businesses across the United States, has been easing its way back into normalcy. Sports fans are once again finding themselves watching games from stadium seats, but not everyone has been acting appropriately. Washington Wizards star Russell Westbrook suffered a slight setback on Wednesday (May 26) when, during a game against the Philadelphia 76ers, he endured an ankle injury. As if that wasn’t bad enough, as Westbrook was being ushered off of the court, a 76ers fan disrespected the NBA icon.
In a video that has gone viral, Westbrook is seen being carried out by officials when someone dumps popcorn onto his head from the seats above. Naturally, Westbrook got fired up and can be seen yelling at officials.
After the game, Westbook sat down for a press conference where he addressed the incident. “To be completely honest, this sh*t is getting out of hand, especially for me,” he said. “The amount of disrespect, the amount of fans just doing whatever the f*ck they want to do. It’s just out of pocket. There are certain things that cross the line. Any other setting… [If] a guy were to come up on the street and pour popcorn on my head, you know what happens.”
“In these arenas, you got to start protecting the players. We’ll see what the NBA does,” he added. According to ESPN, Wizards head coach Scott Brooks called for that 76ers fan to be banned from the league. Check out videos of the incident and Westbrook’s response below.

She used Instagram’s Q&A feature to address a few rumors that have floating about lately. Kim Kardashian is used to having her name entangled in headlines, whether it’s about her divorce from Kanye West, rumors that she’s hooking up with Drake, news regarding a current lawsuit from disgruntled employees, or gossip about her previously dating Travis Barker, boyfriend of her sister Kourtney Kardashian.
Kim hasn’t taken to social media to speak about all of those topics, but she did briefly address the latter two while on Instagram. The reality star mogul wrote that she was getting her nails done so she had a few moments to answer questions from her fans. One person wanted to know if she pays her employees.
“Absolutely, I respect people for their time and their hard work and unfortunately these workers are suing the wrong person,” said Kim. “I paid the vendor and it’s their job to pay their staff. I hope that they are able to get this issue resolved soon.” She also touched on the rumors regarding her relationship with her sister’s boyfriend after news surfaced that she and Barker were once an item and Barker’s ex-wife, Shanna Moakler, said that her marriage to the rocker ended because of his affair with Kim. Danity Kane singer Aubrey O’Day even wrote about the Kim and Barker last summer as she reflected on hanging out with Kim years prior.
A fan flatly asked if Kim and Barker ever hooked up, and Kim answered, “NO! False narrative! We’ve been friends for years and I’m so happy for him and Kourt.” Check it out below.
Today, Welch producer Lewis Roberts, who goes by the moniker of Koreless, shared some great news with fans. In just a little over a month, he will share his debut album with the world, one Koreless announced today on social media. Entitled Agor, the project is an effort five years in the making and it’s one that comes with deep meaning for the producer. “Agor” is Welch for “open” and it’s also a suitable name for the upcoming project that exists at “sensory thresholds,” as a press release states.

In recent months, Bow Wow has given the world a sneak peek into his home life as a single dad. The award-winning rapper is a father of two: a 10-year-old daughter named Shai with Joie Chavis and Stone, and a son born back in September 2020 that he shares with model Olivia Sky. Bow has spoken about the great co-parenting relationship he has with Chavis, but there isn’t much known about the rapper and Sky.

I get my own money,” said Sky in a clip that surfaced on Instagram. “I focus on myself. I be the best mom for my baby, and it still don’t be enough for ****.”
“N*ggas try and find a way to make you think you doin’ something wrong,” she continued. “Why you trying to f*ck with me so hard, dude? Why are you trying to make this single mom sh*t so f*cking hard. This co-parenting sh*t can be so easy, but *** would rather make it hard, bro. And that’s crazy! So, let me be the b*tch that you want me to be. Right now.”
“Go to the internet and let them in on the tea and sh*t ’cause I wanna be famous, right? But how come I didn’t do Love & Hip Hop when they offered me to? What? Huh?” Olivia Sky wasn’t finished as she shared a few more thoughts over on her Instagram Story.
“@shadmoss Think I wanna be FAMOUS. Maybe I should start letting you guys in on some tea then. I’m Pretty quiet for a clout chaser?” wrote Sky. “N*ggas Don’t know how to react when encountering a real b*tch and it SHOWS hunny.”

For the past few years, Big Sean has increased his activism for mental health awareness. The Detroit native has experienced his own issues, which he opened up about shortly after the 2020 release of his album Detroit 2. Now, more than eight months later, Sean once again spoke about the topic during a recent sit-down with Apple Music’s Ebro Darden.
The interview is a part of the Apple Music host’s series The Message, and when the subject of mental health awareness came up, Sean explained why it is important to teach the youth about it. “It really needs to be just like how they teach us about STDs and sex in health class,” Sean said. “They need to make sure they teach us about how to deal with anxiety or how to breathe properly and all of that. It all should be together, because it’s all connected. It’s not like the head is separate from anything, it’s all together.”
As for the music side of things, Sean recently joined Sada Baby and Hit-Boy to throw a mansion party in the video for their new track, “Little While.”
You can watch Sean and Darden’s full interview on Apple Music here.
Sada Baby is a Warner Music artist. Uproxx is an independent subsidiary of Warner Music Group.
