Jenner sat down with The Kyle & Jackie O Show and shared that the family is leaning on one another during this time. “I think it’s always going to be hard anytime…you know, there’s a lot of kids,” Kris reportedly stated. “The good thing about our family is that we are there for each other and supportive and we love each other very, very much so all I want is for those two kids to be happy. And I want the kids to be happy. That’s the goal.”

“I think we all want that for our families, just to be able to have the love and appreciation of one another, and that everyone’s okay. That’s what you want as a mom,” said Kris. Elsewhere she added, “I think it’s just a private time for them. Kim wanted to deal with this with her own family in her own time…When she feels like it, I’m sure she’ll say what she needs to say.”

Previously, Kanye publicly condemned Jenner and called her “Kris Jong Un.” Check out Kris Jenner’s interview with The Kyle & Jackie O Show below.

Deshaun Watson is currently in the midst of some heavy allegations as three women have come forward with lawsuits accusing Watson of sexual misconduct. According to lawyer Tony Buzbee, the women are masseuses who Watson had allegedly hired for regular massage services. However, Watson allegedly acted inappropriately with the women, and now, many of them are seeking some sort of justice. Buzbee even claims that there are six more women who have yet to come forward.

The NFL has officially launched an investigation into the matter, and now, Watson’s team is issuing a statement. Today, the Houston Texans claimed that they are well-aware of what is happening and that effective immediately, they will be cooperating with whatever the league wants and needs from them.

A woman who claims to be a former partner of actor Armie Hammer has come forward with shocking allegations. Hammer has been under heavy scrutiny in recent months as he’s faced multiple accusations of abuse and sexual deviancy—and even cannabilism—and now, a woman who first anonymously shared the alleged story of her experience with the actor is showing face. On Thursday (March 18), a woman named Effie held a press conference with her attorney, Gloria Allred, where she detailed what she reportedly endured.

“On April 24, 2017, Armie Hammer violently raped me for over four hours in Los Angeles, during which he repeatedly slapped my head against a wall, bruising my face. He also committed other acts of violence against me to which I did not consent,” said Effie, according to Variety. The 24-year-old claims she met him back in 2016 and was instantly attracted to him, but according to her, things changed.

“He would often test my devotion to him,” Effie said. “He abused me mentally, emotionally, and sexually.” The investigation into the rape charge was reportedly launched at the top of February, and Hammer’s attorney, Andrew Brettler, fiercely denies the accusations against his client. The lawyer claims Effie asked Hammer to engage her in “kinks” but after time passed, the actor grew less interested. 

According to Brettler, he has hundreds of screenshots of correspondences between Effie and Hammer where the actor allegedly rejects her, including one text from Hammer that reportedly reads: “I am not going to be able to engage in you in that specific way right now. It never ends well. We can talk and be friends, but I can’t do that.”

“From day one, Mr. Hammer has maintained that all of his interactions with [Effie] — and every other sexual partner of his for that matter — have been completely consensual, discussed and agreed upon in advance, and mutually participatory,” Brettler stated. “[Effie’s] attention-seeking and ill-advised legal bid will only make it more difficult for real victims of sexual violence to get the justice they deserve.”

Effie’s attorney, Allred, however, disagrees. She states that famous men purposefully pick vulnerable people, especially fans, to abuse. “Celebrities often make that choice because they may feel that they can more easily use the power of their celebrity to seduce and manipulate fans who admire or idolize them,” said Allred. “They may also count on the fear that many women have of speaking out against a celebrity.”

Deshaun Watson has been accused by three separate women of sexual assault. According to reports, all three of these women were masseuses who Watson hired for a massage. That’s when Watson allegedly got inappropriate with them. In fact, the third woman to file a lawsuit against Watson claims that he forced her to engage in oral sex with him. All of these lawsuits are being handled by a man named Tony Buzbee, and in a recent Instagram post, he claimed that there are nine women who have claims against Watson.

Now, the NFL has sent a letter saying they will officially investigate the claims. Lisa Friel is the NFL’s chief investigator and she will be handling this case. Friel has made it clear that she knows what is happening in regards to the Watson lawsuits and that she will be looking to interview the women, as well as Buzbee who has put himself at the center of the case.

These investigations have happened for the likes of Ezekiel Elliott and Antonio Brown, in the past. Both of those players were punished following an investigation although it remains to be seen what will happen with Watson, who is in the midst of a falling out with his own team.

This situation continues to develop so stay tuned as we will be sure to bring you all of the latest updates.

Virgil Abloh’s Off-White brand is one of the biggest entities in all of streetwear and he continues to make huge strides thanks to his role at Louis Vuitton. Over the last few years, Abloh has been primarily known for his work with Nike, including the impressive “Ten” collection which was released all the way back in 2017. Since that time, Virgil has continued to work with Nike and he has dropped some dope colorways of the Nike Dunk Low.

Now, it appears as though Virgil could be coming through with upwards of 50 new Dunk Low colorways. He recently denied the existence of a 20-piece collection, but now, Instagram sneaker insider @zsneakerheadz has reported the existence of a 50-piece collection. As you can see, the colorways are pretty well all the same, but with little variations depending on some factors mostly out of your control.

Via @zsneakerheadz:

“Off White x Nike Dunk Low will be releasing in 50 different colorways. The main differences will be the colors of the insoles, tongue, overlay laces, swoosh tab & number plate — but the upper will remain the same (Sail/Grey). Number “50 of 50” will be an all black colorway (pictured last slide). The colorway will vary depending on the number (and possibly size) you get.”

This seems like a pretty interesting collaboration and over the coming months, we will certainly find out more, so be sure to keep it locked to HNHH.

Earlier today, it was reported that Quavo and Saweetie recently unfollowed each other on Instagram, leading several people to believe that the young Hip-Hop couple has secretly broken up. Despite them being touted as “relationship goals” for quite a while now, many think that there may be trouble in paradise, especially considering the recent comments that Saweetie made about having a threesome during her guest appearance on Respectfully Justin with her ex-boyfriend Justin Combs and Instagram star Justin Laboy.

Do you think that Quavo and Saweetie have really called it quits or are they probably just working through a rough patch?
