Hollywood appears to finally be taking diversity and representation seriously, as news surfaces that yet another white actor has stepped down from voicing a Black animated character. Harry Shearer, a famed comedian and voice actor who has appeared in projects like The Simpsons and The Truman Show, will no longer be voicing one of The Simpsons‘ most well-known Black characters.
According to the New York Post, Shearer has voiced the Black character Dr. Hibbert, Springfield’s most skilled doctor, since 1990 in addition to other Simpsons characters like Ned Flanders and Principal Skinner. Ahead of its February 28 episode, The Simpsons has announced that the role of Dr. Hibbert has been recast, removing Shearer from the role in favor of The Cleveland Show alumnus Kevin Michael Richardson. The upcoming episode this Sunday will officially mark the show’s recasting
The Simpsons‘ decision to recast Shearer follows several other moves by white voice actors following the Black Lives Matter protests of last summer. Most notably, Jenny Slate resigned from playing Missy for Netflix’s Big Mouth, and Mike Henry stepped down from the iconic role of Cleveland Brown on Family Guy.
What do you think about the Dr. Hibbert recast and Hollywood’s shift towards proper representation in animation?

Yaya Mayweather has been living her best life after giving birth to her first child. The socialite has been partying during Floyd Mayweather’s birthday week, posting videos of herself on a yacht, which were picked apart by fans who called her “irresponsible” for bringing her newborn son on the party boat. She’s also been getting some flack for a viral video that’s been circulating, showing her reaction to Pooh Shiesty and Lil Durk’s hit record “Back In Blood” coming on at a party.
Yaya was seemingly gathered with her friends as they enjoyed some music but, when Pooh Shiesty’s song with Lil Durk started blaring over the speakers, she ordered the DJ to turn it off. The entire thing was captured on Instagram Live, with Yaya yelling at the DJ to turn off the “weak ass song”. Yaya has been linked to Youngboy Never Broke Again, who has ties to Quando Rondo. Thus, she may have an aversion to Durk over what happened between his affiliate King Von and Quando last year.
The new mother has been getting roasted across social media for whining about the song, getting the meme treatment after the video went viral.
Despite all the drama that seeps onto the internet, Yaya Mayweather has been raving about motherhood, saying that she’s the “happiest [she’s] ever been.”
Safe to say that Pooh Shiesty isn’t Yaya Mayweather’s dawg…
Dr. Dre and his estranged wife’s divorce case has taken many twists and turns. The pair have been duking it out in court but the main issue at the center of their separation is the prenuptial agreement. Nicole Young claims that Dre ripped it up after feeling bad for pressuring her into signing it. Meanwhile, Dr. Dre said that anything altered in their agreement must happen in writing.
According to TMZ, Dr. Dre is now trying to move forward with determining their prenuptial agreement as soon as possible. Documents were filed in court by his attorney Laura Disso requesting a 5-day trial to confirm whether or not the prenup is valid.
Dre also requested that their divorce case be moved out of the public eye and handled by a private judge, which Nicole has pushed back against. Nicole reportedly rather have a traditional case.
Though Dr. Dre has remained quiet about the whole ordeal, we did get to hear his first commentary on the matter during a recent song snippet. DJ Silk recently previewed an upcoming collaboration with Dr. Dre and Kxng Crooked where the legendary producer divulges on his marital woes. “Trying to kill me with them lies and that perjury,” he raps on the record. “I see you tryna f**k me while I’m in surgery / And ICU, deathbed on some money shit / Greedy bitch, take a pic / Girl, you know how money get.”
Two months after being sued by his former manager, Chance The Rapper has filed his own countersuit for $3 million, according to The Chicago Tribune. Chance filed the lawsuit in Cook County court, accusing Pat Corcoran of incurring millions of dollars in unreimbursed expenses while promoting Chance’s third mixtape Coloring Book.
Chance’s suit also seeks the dismissal of Corcoran’s complaint about breaching their contract, requesting $3 million in damages for breach of fiduciary duty; interference that led to the loss of business opportunities and profit; and breach of contract — $1 million for each charge.
In a statement, Chance’s rappers told the Tribune, ““Mr. Corcoran has been paid in full under his management services contract with Mr. Bennett. Yet he chose to file a groundless and insulting lawsuit that ignores his own improper self-dealing and incompetence. Mr. Bennett has moved to dismiss the majority of that meritless lawsuit, and filed his own lawsuit to remedy the harm that Mr. Corcoran caused through his breaches of duty. Mr. Bennett trusts the legal system to reveal the truth of the parties’ relationship in due course.”
While Pat’s lawsuit focuses on the explosive success of Chance’s third mixtape, Chance’s countersuit calls the Coloring Book success a direct result of his popularity from Acid Rap, which he recorded and promoted without Pat’s help. The two made an oral agreement after the mixtape’s success, but Chance says that Pat used his position to “convert Mr. Bennett’s opportunities for himself and to advance his own separate business interests” — among them, requesting Live Nation to invest in his wine business and adding himself as co-producer on a movie Chance was to write and produce.
Corcoran allegedly also requested various kickbacks while negotiating Chance’s business opportunities, such as demanding stock from Lyft in exchange for Chance’s participation in its philanthropic campaign in 2018. And while Corcoran’s suit claimed that The Big Day was a rush job, resulting in its disappointing reception among fans, Chance says Pat failed to live up to his role as “The Manager,” delegating responsibilities, skipping media appearances, and refusing to return inquiries from media. The idea to release Chance’s mixtapes to streaming ahead of The Big Day in lieu of a larger marketing plan allegedly came from Pat, who Chance says didn’t get the proper sample clearances, exposing him to more potential lawsuits. Finally, Chance claims it was Pat’s responsibility to have the debut album pressed on vinyl — but he never did, resulting in a wave of refunds that hurt Chance’s brand.
Every year, there are some players that don’t make the cut in the annual NBA All-Star Game, and fans are always sure to let the world know who they think was snubbed. With the All-Star reserves being announced on Tuesday evening, a few notable omissions were pointed out almost instantly as people were rightfully upset with a number of players that were not selected to play in the exhibition game.
For starters, Devin Booker and Trae Young are two names that people were livid not to see on the list. Booker is averaging 24.7 points on 50.1 percent shooting, taking the back seat to Chris Paul who got the nod over him. Many NBA analysts point out that, should there be an injury replacement, Booker will be the first to get the call. “Devin Booker is the most disrespected player in our league!!! Simple as that,” tweeted LeBron James about the snub.
Trae Young is averaging over 25 points and 9 assists and, with his snub, he becomes the first player to have these kinds of numbers in thirty years and not be selected for the All-Star team.
Similarly, Domantas Sabonis is the first player in NBA history to average 20 points, 10 rebounds, and 5 assists without being chosen.
Other notable snubs were Jimmy Butler, who has been lighting up the court this month, DeMar Derozan, Mike Conley Jr. (who has still never been selected for the All-Star game), Fred VanVleet, and more.
Who do you think deserved a spot on the reserves?
The Marvel Cinematic Universe is currently on a roll with its sensational television foray WandaVision, but the Disney-powered franchise has much more in store for faithful fans over the course of the year. From other Disney Plus shows like Loki and The Falcon and the Winter Soldier to major theatrical outings like Black Widow and The Eternals, the MCU’s 2021 line-up is incredibly stacked. The follow-up to Spider-Man: Far From Home, however, is one of the most highly-anticipated films that the franchise is slated to drop this year.
Just two weeks ago, Tom Holland debunked the longtime rumor that Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield would be appearing in the upcoming Spider-Man film, but due to his iffy past as an MCU spokesperson ahead of film releases, many fans didn’t even know if they could trust Holland’s statement. Now, the Cherry star has proven once again why MCU fanatics have come to not trust his pre-release antics.
Yesterday, Holland, along with co-stars Zendaya and Jacob Batalon, took to Instagram to give fans three never-before-seen stills from the upcoming film, but in each of their posts, they also trolled fans by “revealing” the new title to the Far From Home sequel. The gag is that each of them shared a completely different title.
Of course, fans reacted to the core cast’s prank with fervor, confusion, and new theories. Check them out below.
The untitled film is set to wrap filming in Atlanta this spring, so stay tuned for more Spider-Man news. Perhaps we’ll learn the real title soon.

YNW Melly has passed the two-year mark since he was arrested on double murder charges for allegedly killing his two partners YNW Juvy and YNW Sakchaser. The Florida rapper remains in police custody as he awaits his trial. His co-defendant, YNW Bortlen, was released on bail but authorities are keeping close tabs on Melly, who continues to be relevant in the hip-hop world.
Despite his incarceration, YNW Melly has released a constant stream of new music, which was seemingly prepared before his arrest. Fans are divided on if they actually want him out. On the one hand, they miss the rising rapper and would love some of his signature melody-based music. On the other, Melly reportedly admitted to killing his two friends, and people are conflicted on whether he should be a free man. The conversation got so loud that his name began trending on Twitter following the release of Bobby Shmurda and Kodak Black in recent weeks.
“YNW Melly watching Bobby Shmurda and Kodak Black getting free,” captioned one Twitter user on a picture of Squidward watching SpongeBob and Patrick frolicking outside of his house. Memes, jokes, and commentary about Melly’s likely reaction to Bobby’s release are making the rounds, but we have yet to hear from the artist himself.
There doesn’t seem to be a consensus on what should happen to Melly. His supporters are still screaming “Free Melly” from the rooftops but his base does seem to be shrinking as more and more people reluctantly admit that he might not be the safest person to be around.
YNW Melly is facing the death penalty in his case. He has yet to go on trial. We will keep you posted as updates occur.
Ever since his release from prison, Drakeo The Ruler has been absolutely relentless, to the point where he recently delivered his new album Truth Hurts yesterday. And while many are instantly gravitating toward the radio-friendly Drake-collaboration “Talk To Me,” the project is absolutely lined with signature Drakeo bangers, including the highlight cut “RIP Deebo.”
Off the bat, the essence of Drakeo’s character is revealed — menacing, cool, collected, and hilarious. The way he utters threats is second to none, never raising his voice above a borderline whisper. “Keep your mouth closed, heater on me don’t you know my stick bipolar?” he asks, in his opening lines. “I ain’t with the side-joking, lift the suicide doors.” As the drums hit, Drakeo keeps his pace steady, unfazed by anyone who might be side-eying him. “Lying-ass n***a I don’t do songs with you pedos, n***as act like strippers we should put em’ in stilettos,” he spits. “Your friend’s gone, you need to let go / before I hit his block playing instrumentals.”
If you like what you hear, be sure to check out Drakeo’s new album Truth Hurts, and show the rapper some love in the comments below.
Lying-ass n***a I don’t do songs with you pedos,
N***as act like strippers we should put em’ in stilettos
Your friend’s gone, you need to let go
Before I hit his block playing instrumentals.
50 Cent has had a storied career in several industries. He’s known as one of the greatest rappers of all time but he’s also taken over recently as a television producer, establishing himself as a strong force with Power and the numerous spin-off series surrounding it. He had to struggle to get to this point though as evidenced by the photos that continue to circulate from his 2011 acting role in All Things Fall Apart.
Whenever somebody has a personal issue with Fif, they always bring back the viral photos of the rapper from All Things Fall Apart, where he portrays a football player who is suffering from a deteriorating illness. Fiddy dropped over fifty pounds for the role, hitting 160 pounds and losing a lot of his muscle. While he gained it back, Freddie Gibbs argues that it might not have been worth the battle because nobody actually even watched the film.
During his conversation with Joe Rogan on the latest episode of the Joe Rogan Experience, Gibbs brings up 50’s movie look after Matthew McConaughey’s weight loss was mentioned. “50 Cent did that sh*t, it was trash though,” said Gibbs. “You remember when 50 Cent got skinny for that movie? Nobody watched that sh*t.”
The conversation shifts to Christian Bale before jumping back to 50 Cent when Gibbs suggests he can use some donation money. “Damn, 50. He got skinny as f*ck for this sh*t,” he said. “He looks like a Nigerian Olympic runner. But we didn’t watch that movie.”
Joe Rogan was visibly surprised with 50’s transformation when he was looking at pictures, saying, “Look how skinny he got! But still, he looks kind of jacked. But still, he’s kind of ripped. He’s got chest muscles. He looks like a runner. His face looks like sh*t but his body looks like he’s a runner. He didn’t get as bad as Christian Bale.”
Do you remember when Fif lost all that weight? Listen to Freddie Gibbs discuss with Joe Rogan and Brian Moses at the 54:30 mark.
