Deyjah Harris Unfollows ‘Hymen Checking’ Father T.I. On Instagam After Outrage

Original post:

Source: Paras Griffin / Getty Deyjah Harris hasn’t said anything publically about her father, Clifford T.I. Harris and his ‘hymen checking’ ways, but she did send a signal socially. E! News is reporting she unfollowed her dad on Instagram following the outrage. The 18-year-old has been quiet while the internet and celebs have been dragging the rapper up and down their timelines for revealing on the Ladies Like Us   podcast that he attends annual gynecologist appointments to “check her hymen.” However, reportedly, she is letting her dad know that she doesn’t agree with having her “virginity checked” in the most gen-z way possible by unfollowing him on the gram according to E! News . According to Hollywood Unlocked , Harris also is not following Tip’s wife, Tameka “Tiny” Cottle, or her stepsister, Zonnique Pullins.

A post shared by HOLLYWOOD UNLOCKED (@hollywoodunlocked) on Nov 11, 2019 at 6:07am PST Harris has also liked a series of Tweets that immediately followed him revealing the trips to the gynecologist, calling him his actions “controlling,” “possessive,” and “disgusting.” She even acknowledged all of the support she had received from fans telling them, “I loveeeeeee yalllllll” in a Tweet. It’s unclear as to when Dejah unfollowed her dad, Tiny, and stepsister or if she was following them in the first place. Maybe T.I. will take this is a strong signal that his daughter is upset with him and that his actions were indeed reprehensible. — Photo: Paras Griffin / Getty

After getting booed over the weekend at Camp Flog Gnaw, Drizzy hit back at the crowd via Instagram. Taking to Instagram, Drake let it be known that getting booed off the stage at one of the biggest music festivals of the year didn’t really harm him as much as some of his detractors may have hoped. From Drake’s IG: Plot twist…just signed a 10 year residency at Camp Flog Gnaw sorry kids see you EVERY SINGLE YEAR till you are 30 While this appears to be nothing but a joke from Drake, Tyler, The Creator was angered at fans for booing the Scorpion star.

Various Angles Of Tyler, The Creator Dancing To Drake Prove He’s A True Fan

Source: Tim Mosenfelder / Getty Drake did not have the best start to the week after he got booed on stage at the Camp Flog Gnaw music festival in L.A. The music festival, which was started by Tyler, The Creator , featured such artists like Solange , Brockhampton , DaBaby and YG. It was revealed that a surprise guest would take the stage towards the end of the festival and many fans believed it would be Frank Ocean . However, they were in for a surprise when they got everyone other than Mr. Ocean. According to witnesses talking to Complex , the surprises began at 10 p.m. on Sunday starting with A$AP Rocky coming out to perform two songs. Then, Lil Uzi Vert followed with two of his own songs. “Everyone was into it, but people were definitely talking about getting Frank out there,” one fan, Alejandro Cruz, said. Finally, Drake came out and according to witnesses, people were excited at first. But this is when they thought he was only going to do two songs like the rest of the guests. “People were hyped when he first came out, and shocked, too,” Cruz said. “Because no one was really expecting Drake to be there.” However, when Drake kept playing one more song after one more song, people started getting impatient. “I would say the reaction got worse the longer he stayed on,” said one attendee named Breeana Gonzalez. This is win the boos heightened because again, some people thought there was still time for Frank Ocean to make an appearance. Despite the disappointment, some people were still hype for Drake. According to a tweet from Tyler the Creator, “MOSTLY EVERYONE WAS HAVING A GREAT TIME, THOSE SH**S IN THE FRONT AREA WERE THE ONES BEING MAD RUDE, WHICH, I CAN SEE WHY, BUT, NAH, FU** THAT, YALL REPRESENTED ME AND FLOG TO MY GUEST AND MADE US LOOK SOOO ENTITLED AND TRASH.” Tyler seemed to still have a good time, however. Looking over my vids and tyler was so happy. Drake didn’t deserve to go out the way he did. pic.twitter.com/KdRuipl4er — Juicy Jay (@Jayzuesss) November 11, 2019   Like a REALLY good time.

Chicago Fire Creator Explains Stunning Season Premiere Death

WARNING! CHICAGO FIRE SPOILERS AHEAD! Stop reading right now if you have not yet watched Chicago Fire Season 8 Episode 1 — and if you have plans to do so.  Over the past 7 seasons, Chicago Fire has certainly included its fair share of heartbreaking storylines and near-death experiences. However, this intense and shocking season premiere took things to an entirely new level, basically eliminating the whole near -death part of the experience. The episode picked up mere seconds after season 7 cut to black, with the basement fire threatening everyone’s lives. While everyone seemed to be accounted for, Joe Cruz heard the distress signal alarm going off, which informed the group that a firefighter was not breathing. GULP .  It was at this point that he found Otis… badly burnt and unconscious. But no way would the series kill him off, right? Sorry, folks: Wrong. Once everyone arrived to the hospital, while Otis was still breathing, the group was informed he wouldn’t make it. Otis is dead, you guys. Before taking his final breath, Otis turned to Cruz in the hospital and said a Russian phrase. It translated to: “Brother, I will be with you, always.” Cue ALL the tears. Watch Chicago Fire Season 8 Episode 1 Online Following the episode, co-creator Derek Haas spoke to Us Weekly and answered spoke about the details and the basis behind this stunning passing. WHY DID THE SHOW DECIDE TO KILL OFF OTIS? We’ve had characters injured and characters leave the show, but if you keep pulling that football then the audience just stops believing that the dangerous situations are actually dangerous. So we decided we should do it. We should make this one really have consequences that set up the new season and have characters having to now deal with the death of a colleague in their own ways. HOW WILL CRUZ MOVE FORWARD FROM HERE? It’s gonna be a rough road. He’s gonna deal with it, honestly, in a cycle of emotions, in a cycle of different ways and it’s gonna last a while. I do think there are good days and there are bad days for everyone. I know when my father-in-law died, who I was really close with, I called it “Catching a wave.” Every now and then you just get this wave that would hit you in the least expected moment. So I think we’re gonna see those kind of things and not just with Cruz, with other characters too. ON A SEPARATE NOTE, WHERE ARE THINGS GOING BETWEEN SEVERIDE AND KIDD? I think he’s gonna try to live up to the words that he said to her in the finale, just to be the boyfriend, the man that she deserves. There’s gonna be pressures on them, but it’s not pressures on their relationship as much as external pressures on them as people. What’s interesting about it is the way that they support each other. Chicago Fire airs NBC Wednesdays at 9/8c. What did YOU think of this death? Did you see it coming?!?

Black Women Entrepreneurs Pay Off Debt For 30 Students At Clark Atlanta University

Follow this link:

T wo Black women entrepreneurs paid it forward by giving back to students in need at their alma mater. Pinky Cole , the creator of the plant-based burger restaurant Slutty Vegan, and Harlem Hops owner Stacey Lee —both alums of Clark Atlanta University—helped 30 seniors who attend the historically Black college pay off their debt, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported. These two women went back to their alma mater and asked for a list of seniors who wouldn’t be able to graduate due to outstanding balances. Then they partnered to clear them. https://t.co/UmdvX9MfAp — #becauseofthemwecan (@Becauseofthem) September 12, 2019 Lee, who founded Harlem’s first-ever Black-owned beer bar, was determined to find a way to assist students who are struggling with the cost of tuition. She contacted Cole to explore ways they could join forces and eliminate financial burdens for students so they’d be able to walk across the graduation stage. Cognizant of how the student debt crisis has hit HBCUs the hardest, the women were motivated to utilize their resources to make a difference in the lives of students of color. Cole and Lee—who are members of the Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Incorporated—connected with the school and asked for a list of seniors who needed to pay off debt so they would be able to graduate. They randomly chose 30 students to help and surprised them on campus to let them know that their outstanding balances have been handled. “God has been so good to us both. It just felt right,” Cold told Because of Them We Can . “Growing up in a single-family household, and being the first to go to college, I know what it feels like to not know where the money is coming from. But there were people who believed in me despite my circumstances and I wanted to be that person for someone else.” Since the inception of her fast-growing business, which has evolved into a staple in Atlanta, she has donated over $100,000 towards the education of college students in need. Entrepreneurs are stepping up to help students of different ages tackle their debt. In June, a Black-owned barbershop in North Carolina raised money to help high school seniors pay off their debt so they would be able to graduate.

Legendary Black Beauty Brand ‘Fashion Fair’ Is For Sale And We’re Pondering Who Is Going To Buy

View post:

Source: Westend61 / Getty The Fashion Fair Beauty Brand is historic and influential in the Black beauty world. Founded in 1969 by Eunice W. Johnson, the creator of the Ebony Fashion Fair Show, the beauty brand traveled internationally with Black models who were modeling high end designs. Johnson founded the company when she noticed models in the show were mixing their own foundations to create the right blend to match their skin tone. Now in a time when almost every brand is offering multiple shades, pushed heavily by Rihanna’s Fenty Beauty line, Fashion Fair is going up for sale. Hilco Streambank has been retained by Miriam R. Stein to run the sale of the brand. Gabre Fried, CEO of Hilco Streambank stated, “Fashion Fair was developed at a time when the leading beauty brands did not make products which met the needs of African American women. Mrs. Johnson, ever the entrepreneur, developed and cultivated the Fashion Fair brand to a highly devoted audience.” A visionary indeed. The issues with models having foundation to match their skin tone was an issue up until recently; illustrating the impact of Johnson’s beauty creation. Fried shared, “Eventually, the brand expanded its product lines to address the needs of many other women of color, vaulting the brand to the global stage.” At the height of its success, the brand was generating over $56 million in wholesale sales, according to their press release. Personally, I would love to see this brand remain Black owned, especially with it’s iconic history. Could Rihanna potentially scoop up this beauty brand and add to her arsenal? It’s founded on the very principles she strives to uphold by offering women the right to have their own foundation shade. Will Beautypreneur extraodinairé Richelieu Dennis add this brand to his growing portfolio? After all, he did recently purchase Madam C.J. Walker’s mansion in upstate New York to turn into an incubator for Black women. Will the brand be bought by a big company and absorbed into their portfolio of brands? We’ll find out soon enough. Offers to buy the brand are due by October 24, 2019 and an auction will be held on October 28, 2019. Are you balling and interested in buying Fashion Fair? You can find more information here .

See the article here:

The action star took to Twitter to highlight the film’s encouraging box office numbers Hobbs & Shaw — which also stars Jason Statham — pulled in and we can pretty much guess who he was sending the message to. On August 11, The Rock sent out the first jab by sharing a Deadline article with the updated box office numbers with the movie raking in $333 million worldwide. “Not too bad of WEEK 1 box office business. Thanks everyone around the world for having a great time and supporting our little spin-off,” Not too bad of WEEK 1 box office business.

Instead of sharing another article, he posted a commercial boasting the film being number one in the world… AGAIN. “Thank you everyone for makin’ this an exciting first week of box office for our lil’ spin-off @ hobbsandshaw . #1 movie and $333M worldwide, ain’t too shabby.

Last weekend he took the stage at the Real Street Festival in Anaheim, California. During the middle of his set he took time out to address his experience of being locked down for almost a month. He made it clear it changed his perspective on the opportunities he has been afforded as a star. “Y’all know how happy I am to be here right now,” he said. “I want to say this, though: When I was away — hold the mosh please, this a sentimental moment! — what I experienced was crazy. It was a scary, humbling experience, but I’m here right now.” The “Pesos” rapper also added that the amount of support her received from his fans was priceless. “God is good. People who ain’t even fuck with me felt sympathy. People was praying for me. That uplifted me when my spirits was low. That was crazy. Hip-hop never looked so strong together.” You can see footage from the show below which included surprise appearances from frequent collaborators Tyler The Creator, YG and A$AP Ferg. Photo: WENN.com

R apper and actor Jaden Smith is no stranger to activism. Just months after he announced that he would be bringing a water filtration system to Flint, the “Icon” rapper is now using his platform and resources to help the homeless. According to People , Smith brought a vegan food truck to Los Angeles and fed the homeless for free. Jaden Smith Opens 'Healthy, Vegan' Food Truck for the Homeless in Los Angeles https://t.co/YzA3DmckKQ — People (@people) July 9, 2019 The food truck was a part of Smith’s new venture I Love You Restaurant. Through the company, Smith wants to help individuals who are dealing with food insecurity by making healthy options free and accessible. I Love You Restaurant will have several pop-up food trucks that will serve the homeless population. The first pop-up took place on his 21st birthday on Skid Row. For Smith, celebrating his milestone birthday was less about partying and more about furthering his philanthropic efforts. “The @ILoveYouRestaurant Is A Movement That Is All About Giving People What They Deserve, Healthy, Vegan Food For Free,” he posted on Instagram . “Today We Launched Our First One Day Food Truck Pop-Up in Downtown LA. Keep A Look Out Because This Is The First Of Many #JADENinc.” As Smith grows his influence in the realm of activism, he’s also continuing to make waves in music. He released a new album titled ERYS on July 4 and will soon be hitting the road with Tyler the Creator for a tour. Initiatives like Smith’s are needed and will be instrumental in evoking change. According to the National Alliance to End Homelessness , there are over 500,000 people in the United States experiencing homelessness on a given night. Feeding America reported that in 2017 nearly 40 million Americans—including over 12 million youngsters—lacked access to food. Smith isn’t the only celebrity who is focused on fighting hunger. In May, NBA star LeBron James teamed up with Walmart for the Fight Hunger Spark Change campaign to address the hunger gap experienced by communities of color, children, senior citizens, and those living in poverty.
