SMH: The University Of Kansas Issues An Apology Following Snoop Dogg’s Risqué Stripper-Filled Performance

Source: MediaNews Group/Torrance Daily Breeze via Getty Images / Getty Snoop Dogg’s Performance At The University Of Kansas Didn’t Go Over Well A performance from the one-and-only Snoop Dogg brought some controversy to the University of Kansas . The college ended up issuing an apology on Friday night after the rapper performed as part of the “Late Night in the Phog” preseason celebration, which follows scrimmages by both the men’s and women’s basketball teams. The 35-minute set Snoop brought to Allen Fieldhouse featured women on stripper poles doing what women do on stripper poles, along with shooting fake money into the crowd, and performing the unedited versions of his hit songs, like “Drop It Like It’s Hot” and “Gin and Juice.” View this post on Instagram A post shared by snoopdogg (@snoopdogg) on Oct 4, 2019 at 10:07pm PDT The vulgarity of the show reportedly raised some eyebrows, which led to Kansas’ athletic director Jeff Long issuing a statement to the Kansas City Star . In the apology, he explains that the school expected a “clean version” of the performance from the legendary rapper. “We apologize to anyone who was offended by the Snoop Dogg performance at Late Night. We made it clear to the entertainers’ managers that we expected a clean version of the show and took additional steps to communicate to our fans, including moving the artist to the final act of the evening, to ensure that no basketball activities would be missed if anyone did not want to stay for his show,” the statement said. “I take full responsibility for not thoroughly vetting all the details of the performance and offer my personal apology to those who were offended. We strive to create a family atmosphere at Kansas and fell short of that this evening.” There’s no word on how the university and Snoop Dogg had such a different understanding of what the performance was supposed to be, but in Snoop’s defense, it’s easy to see why he might have thought a “Late Night” event was meant to push the envelope a little bit. In the video posted by the Long Beach native following his show, the crowd at Allen Fieldhouse seemed to be loving the performance as they lowdly cheered him on. After word of the controversy got out, Snoop brushed it off by sharing a short statement on Instagram which seems to be in response to those saying he did too much. “Thank. U for letting me be me. This is America,” he captioned the post. View this post on Instagram Thank. U for letting me be me . This is America A post shared by snoopdogg (@snoopdogg) on Oct 5, 2019 at 2:29pm PDT

Farrah Abraham: Jenelle Evans Is My BFF! I’m Gonna Save Her Career!

Teen Mom is different from other reality franchises, in that the central cast members all live in different parts of the country. But despite the geographical distance between them, the ladies are forever united by the experience of starring on such a long-running series. And the two stars who got their asses fired after years of batsh-t behavior share an even more special bond. We're talking, of course, about Farrah Abraham and Jenelle Evans, both of whom were kicked to the curb after years of tormenting the poor producers who were assigned to work with them. Farrah and Jenelle have talked MAJOR trash about each over the years, but perhaps we shouldn't be surprised by the fact that they've now formed a friendship. Buckle up, because things are about to get weird: 1. Best Frenemies Over the course of their decade in the spotlight, Jenelle and Farrah have lashed out at just about everyone with the misfortune to cross their paths, including one another. 2. Brought Together By Unemployment These days, Jenelle and Farrah are finally seeing eye-to-eye, and it seems it’s the experience of being fired by MTV that brought them together. 3. Trailblazer Farrah was the first to go. She got the ax in 2017, purportedly over her refusal to stop performing in live internet sex shows. 4. The Cam Girl Of course, as many have pointed out, Farrah had been appearing in adult films for years, and the more likely explanation is that she was fired for being shockingly rude to her production staff. 5. Kicked to the Curb Similarly, Jenelle spent several years making life hell for the people forced to work with her, but in Evans’ case, there’s no mystery about what finally led execs to kick her to the curb. 6. The Nugget Incident Back in March, Jenelle’s husband, David Eason, beat, shot, and killed the family dog — an 11-pound French bulldog puppy named Nugget. View Slideshow

Hannah Brown and Alan Bersten: Are They Dating?

After this week's new episode of Dancing With The Stars , Hannah Brown continues to dazzle on the dancefloor. If only she were that lucky at love. But sometimes, the things we most want to find show up when we finally stop looking for them. Has Hannah found the man of her dreams, not on a televised date, but in her dance partner Alan Bersten? Hannah Brown went from hopping around the globe looking for her man to lighting up the dancefloor and looking for victory. Her dance partner is the young and handsome Alan Bersten, and the two are definitely one of the most talented and graceful teams this season. Naturally, some fans had to wonder if their chemistry on the dance floor translated to chemistry off camera. When Hannah held an Instagram Q&A, one of her fans straight-up asked her if she and Bersten are “a thing.” Hannah could have ignored the question — but instead, she answered. “Um, yeah, we’re a thing,” Hannah's reply begins in the video that we have included. She then delivers her punchline: “Team  Alanbama  Hannah.” That's right,  Alanbama . Very cute that she found a way to include his name without mashing it directly with hers. (Also, trying to mash up Hannah and Alan runs the very strong risk of the word  anal  appearing) In other words, if she and Alan are enjoying any windmills together, she's certainly not ready to reveal it. Another clip that Hannah shared to her Instagram involves her, still wtih Alan, discussing how much she enjoys training and improving. “OK, so we obviously have to look at each other when we dance,” Hannah shares. It's part of most dancers, naturally. “And when I had not been doing a step right and then I finally get it right,” she continues. “I can always tell by his face.” Hannah exclaims: “and I’m like, ‘Yes!’ That’s my favorite thing!”  Alan, in the same video, makes it clear that he's not giving her super subtle facial cues. “I smile when she gets it right,” Alan explains while flashing a dazzling smile of his own at Hannah's phone. “And,” he raves. “I just love dancing with her.” Alan expresses that “it’s a lot of fun.” We're sure that it is! The two of them move so beautifully across the dance floor and have been doing very well. Bobby Bones spoke to Life & Style about the all-too-familiar speculation that Hannah and Alan have faced. “They’re not dating,” Bobby says. “I mean they tried to rumor me with Sharna because we were both single,” he recalls. “Look, I know Alan,” Bobby notes. “I don’t feel like they’re dating and if you get two single people, you’re just going to assume that they’re together.” “I don’t think they’re dating, but it’s a very intimate thing,” he says of dancing. Bobby explains: “You’re so close with that person the whole time, so it’ll be interesting to see what happens.” Unfortunately, even if Hannah and Alan were boning, Hannah might have good reason to keep that knowledge to herself. She has faced a tremendous amount of slut-shaming from some truly reprehensible “fans” of The Bachelorette . Sex is a normal, though not universal, part of dating, yet some viewers acted scandalized that Hannah took the whole “dating” thing seriously. Some of them were just horny for Luke Parker and so they sided with him when he got extra weird, but others seem to just … have a problem with women. Sadly, whoever Hannah next dates, she's likely to face further shaming. It's hugely unfair. But at least she's a stellar dancer!

Jenelle Evans: Teen Mom 2 Ratings PLUMMET Without the Carolina Hurricane!

It's been five months since Jenelle Evans was fired  by MTV. But since Teen Mom 2 was on hiatus at the time, we're only now finding out how the show will fare without its primary source of drama. So far, it seems the answer is – not well. Not well at all. According to The Ashley's Reality Roundup, ratings have been on the decline for years, but have taken a particularly sharp dive of late. In fact, they've suffered their most significant drop yet in the first episodes of Season 9B … a.k.a. the first episodes without Jenelle. Can the show survive without its most infamous star? Will the numbers drop so low that MTV will be forced to try and win her back? Even if that happened, does Jenelle have any interest in returning to the reality TV franchise that made her famous … and infamous? Here's what we know about the situation thus far: 1. The End of an Era Yes, after nearly a decade on camera, three children and more ups and downs than we can even count, Jenelle Evans is no longer a Teen Mom 2 cast member. And it seems the show is already suffering without its most marketable star. 2. A Controversial Star Jenelle was liked by many viewers, and even those who hated her loved to watch her. In fact, based on social media comments, it often felt as though the only thing preventing some viewers from fast-forwarding through Jenelle’s scenes was the joy of “hate-watching.” 3. The Nugget Incident Over the years, producers put up with a LOT of unseemly behavior from the Carolina Hurricane over the years, but they finally drew the line when she defended her husband after he beat, shot, and killed her French bulldog puppy, Nugget. 4. Put Out to Pasture Following that horrifying incident (and the ensuing CPS investigation that briefly cost Evans’ custody of her kids), MTV executives basically did to Jenelle’s career what David did to Nugget. 5. Good Riddance? To the immense satisfaction of many viewers fed up with her nonsense, Jenelle was fired from the show that made her famous. And since David had already been canned by producers, the Evans-Eason era was officially at an end. 6. The Last Laugh? Now, however, it seems that Teen Mom 2 and MTV might miss all those viewers who tuned in just to jeer at Jenelle – whether they loved her or loved to hate her. View Slideshow

Grand Closing: Forever 21 Files For Bankruptcy

Source: NurPhoto / Getty It seems that the popularity of online shopping has claimed another brick and mortar based business as victim. Forever 21 is in deep financial trouble. High Snobiety   is reporting that the fashion retailer has officially filed for bankruptcy . According to The Financial Times the brand plans to restructure their organization in an effort to minimize loss. This includes shutting down up to 300 of their stores across the world. According to the documents filed the Los Angeles, California based company is listing assets and liabilities between $1 billion to $10 billion. In a formal statement listed on their site Forever 21 claims they are not shutting down their operations. “Essentially this allows Forever 21 to continue to operate its stores as usual, while the Company takes positive steps to reorganize the business so we can return to profitability and refocus on delivering incredible styles and fashion you love for many years to come.  This does NOT mean that we are going out of business – on the contrary, filing for bankruptcy protection is a deliberate and decisive step to put us on a successful track for the future.” This new filing is just another name in the bucket of retailers who are hemorrhaging money.

Eddie Murphy Says His Kid’s Friends Thought He Stole Busta Rhymes Ideas For His Movies

Eddie Murphy is ready to drop his latest film, Dolemite Is My Name based on the life of the legendary Rudy Ray Moore around the creation of the iconic Dolemite character. The cult classic is bad in fantastic ways. Missed karate kicks, boom mics in the shot, ropes, and wires from rigged sets all in the view of the eye of the camera. It’s fantastic. Dolemite Is My Name stars Eddie Murphy, Wesley Snipes, Mike Epps, Snoop Dogg and more. It’s directed by Craig Brewer who will also direct the Coming To America sequel which is being filmed now. Eddie discovered the Dolemite movie at a young age after his brother Charlie Murphy told him he needed to go to the theater to see the raunchy film, “You gotta go see Dolemite, this shit is crazy.” Eddie goes on to explain how this theater works, “There was a movie theater in Rosevelt, Long Island where they just let you in. That’s the first place I’ve seen a grown person’s titties. It was Pam Grier in Coffey. I might have been 13 or 14. They didn’t even say are your parents here. They just say ‘One for Coffey?’ That’s where I saw Coffey and Dolemite.” During this week’s episode of Extra Butter with Xilla Valentine you can see Eddie Murphy share his thoughts on Jay Z, Master P and Shaggy using his comedy to create songs. The full interview can be seen above, and be sure to check out Dolemite is my name streaming on Netflix this fall.

Source: VH1 / VH1 K. Michelle Under Fire We all thought that this week would be all about the cat fight between Apryl and Moniece . However, that feud ended without much fireworks as the two, ahem, singers seemed to bury the hatchet so they could tour together in a not-at-all convoluted storyline. No, the story coming out of Monday’s episode was K. Michelle . K. Michelle did an interview on the show and went all the way in on Moniece and Apryl’s singing voices and their struggling careers. The problem is that Moniece has been K. Michelle’s best friend and supporter on the show since day one. For K. Michelle to throw her under the bus is quite the stab in the back and Twitter has definitely noticed… If people don't realize K. Michelle is nobody's friend and is toxic & miserable af, I don't know when they'll get it. She's a trash ass friend, period. Elle Varner, Jonathan, and now Moniece. There's a common denominator and pattern, her BS. #LHHHollywood #LHHH — LastKnightnParis (@lastknightnpari) October 1, 2019 Peep the backlash…

Jenelle Evans: Did David Eason Really Knock Her Teeth Out?!

Jenelle Evans doesn’t have the greatest track record when it comes to telling the truth. In fact, it’s a pretty safe bet that if Jenelle’s mouth is moving, she’s lying — especially if she’s talking about her mouth. Allow us to explain: For years now, Teen Mom 2 fans have been scrutinizing Jenelle’s dental situation. In photos and videos — even the ones she posts herself — it often appears that Jenelle is missing teeth. And we’re not talking about an absent molar or two that might have been knocked out in some sort of accident. No, some fans are convinced that Jenelle is missing most of her teeth and has been forced to invest in a set of dentures. Needless to say, that’s an unusual set of circumstances for young women who are still in their twenties. But in Evans’ case, there are two possible theories with regard to the cause of her jaw trauma. We know that her husband,  David Eason, is abusive because … well, there’s a mountain of evidence to that effect. Most recently, Eason beat, shot and killed the family dog during one of his signature fits of rage. And that certainly wasn’t the first instance of David exhibiting violent behavior. Remember when Jenelle called 911 on David after he allegedly attacked her during a “drunk and dramatic” altercation at the couple’s home? Those who have heard the recording are unlikely to ever forget it. “My husband, he assaulted me. He pinned me down on the ground in the yard,” a sobbing Jenelle told the dispatcher. Jenelle Evans 911 Call “I think I heard my f—ing collarbone crack. I can’t move my arm.” So we suppose it comes as no surprise that some fans believe David knocked Jenelle’s teeth out. But that’s just one theory. As you probably know Jenelle has a long history of drug use , and some fans think that’s the cause of her tooth loss. Whatever the case, the rumors are persistent enough that Evans felt the need to address them un her Instagram Story on Wednesday: “Let’s put this rumor to rest everyone,” she said when a fan asked about the theory. “I have got a retainer that’s like fake teeth, and that’s what I had to straighten out my jaw,” Evans added. “I have my teeth — these are all my teeth,” Jenelle said, pointing to her mouth “And why did I need to straighten out my jaw?” she asked. “Because I have an overbite really bad, and it almost touches the bottom of my teeth.” Of course, as many have pointed out on Twitter, at no point in the video does Jenelle show her teeth without the “retainer” in her mouth. But regardless of whether or not she’s telling the truth, the saddest part of this story might be that Jenelle felt the need to make the video at all. “Isn’t it sad that you have to prove you have teeth because nobody would be surprised if you lost them because of drugs or because your husband knocked them out?” wrote one Twitter user. That just about sums this mess up. View Slideshow: Jenelle Evans Hints at Separation From David Eason, Seems to Be Missing Teeth [UPDATED]
