For BET’s Love and Happiness event at the White House, President Barack Obama put politics on hold to get his “Hotline Bling” dance moves on with Usher on October 21.
Justin Bieber may be a long way from settling down in his own love life, but it certainly seems that he’s looking forward to seeing some of his popstar buddies take the plunge. As you may know One Direction’s Liam Payne is dating Cheryl Cole , the singer who may or may not have left her husband her for Liam. Whatever the case Cheryl married Jean-Bernard Fernandez-Versini in 2014, and they’re not even legally divorced yet. She’s had two marriages bite the dust in just five years, and she’s reached the point where she’s changed her last name so many times that she’s now attempting to do the mega-star mononym thing and just go by “Cheryl.” (Maybe she’s a big enough deal to pull that off in the UK, but not on this side of the pond!) Anyway, you’d think Just Cheryl would be in no big hurry to walk down the aisle again, but apparently you would be wrong. In a recent interview, Bieber was asked about Liam and Cheryl’s relationship, and apparently the couple has Justin’s seal of approval. In fact, not only do they have the all-important Bieber Blessing, Liam and Cheryl are apparently getting very serious very quickly: “She looks the happiest I have ever seen her,” Justin said when asked about Cheryl. “She is beautiful inside and out, so she deserves all the happiness in the world. Liam is a great guy, all the One Direction guys are.” Then he dropped the bombshell that has One Direction fans the world over shrieking in either glee or horror (It’s tough to tell sometimes.): “They just better make sure I am invited to the wedding.” Obviously, Justin could’ve been joking around (That’s the sort of comment people make about couples who are getting serious.), but – and this make shock you – One Direction fans aren’t known for being the most stoic, unemotional lot. Let the wedding freakout commence!
Olympic gymnast living the Olympic gymnast dream…who is no longer a Gymnast but is still an Olympic winner who is actually living her gymnast stage mom dreams…stage mom that probably saw that glimmer of talent in and that she in turned into a reality thanks to hard work, hormone therapy and teaching your kid a lessing in whoring their happiness for bigger dreams..

And I guess some of those concessions were that once she got a gold, she could quit and become an instagram whore for her fans…which is what she’s been doing since she won… I know you don’t really care about her and her fit ass now that she’s not 14 anymore…but thanks to all she’s been through – she still looks 14…and in a tight dress…so go go go … The post McKayla Maroney’s Olympic Gold Ass of the Day appeared first on DrunkenStepfather .
Yesterday, the world lost a legendary athlete. “The Greatest,” in fact. Muhammad Ali died after a 32-year battle with Parkinson’s Disease. As the world mourns this devastating loss, his daughter Hana Ali has shared the details of his death in a social media post. In the photo above of her with her dad, she calls him a “humble mountain” and asks fans to “pray for the peace of his beautiful soul and for the happiness of his further journey.” In a second post, she reveals that at the time of his passing, the boxer was surrounded by loved ones expressing their love and support. “Our hearts are literally hurting. But we are so happy daddy is free now. “We all tried to stay strong and whispered in his ear, ‘You can go now. We will be okay. We love love. Thank you. You can go back to God now.’ All of us were around him hugging and kissing him and holding his hands, chanting the Islamic prayer.” Then, Hana recounts, something truly remarkable happened. “All of his organs failed but his HEART wouldn’t stop beating. “For 30 minutes… his heart just kept beating. “No one had ever seen anything like it. A true testament to the strength of his spirit and will! “Thank you all for your love and support!” Incredible. Even in his dying moments, Muhammad Ali floats like a butterfly, and in our hearts, it stings like a bee. RIP Muhammad Ali. View Slideshow: Muhammad Ali: Mourned, Remembered by Stars Everywhere
After Rob Kardashian and Blac Chyna announced their engagement to the world earlier this week, Tyga was one of the first to respond with well wishes to the couple. “Everybody deserves 2 be happy,” he wrote on Twitter. “What some1 does for their happiness is not my concern, as long as it’s not interfering wit my happiness.” “It makes me happy to see the mother of my son happy,” added Tyga, who shares a four-year-old son, King Cairo, with Blac. This simple note of congratulations royally ticked off his girlfriend Kylie Jenner, who has disapproved of her brother’s relationship with her nemesis since it began in January. Tyga and Kylie reportedly got into a huge blowout and broke up just before he left on his world tour Friday. “All this drama really started when Tyga spoke out on social media about Blac and Rob’s engagement while she was away,” a source tells Radar Online . “Kylie had specifically told him to NOT say anything about it until she did.” “Tyga talked so much sh*t about Blac being with Rob to Kylie behind Blac’s back and to everyone else and then he goes and sends them well-wishes. It just really p*ssed her off!” the source added. However, while Kylie is busy fuming over Tyga’s tweet, the “Rack City” rapper may have had an ulterior motive behind sending the message. Blac believes her baby daddy is simply pretending to be civil so as to gain the favor of the courts in their custody battle over King. In reality, says Blac, Tyga treats her like crap and has called her a “drunk whore” and a “deadbeat mama.” None of this matters to Kylie, however, who simply feels betrayed. So far, Kylie has remained tight-lipped about her brother’s engagement. View Slideshow: Kylie Jenner vs. Blac Chyna Feud: A Complete Anthology of Shade!
Dear Bossip , For the past 3 ½ years I’ve been in an off and on relationship. When I first met him he had a son. A few months later after getting to know him a girl stated that she was pregnant with his child. That caused a big damp in the relationship, so I left him alone. When she delivered he took a DNA test and come to find out the child wasn’t his. He reached out to me for months, but I never budged. One day, he found me and insisted I hear him out. I heard him out and he told me how sorry he was and that the child wasn’t his. A few weeks later, we ended up trying to work this out and decided we wanted to make it official. Year two, we’re official and now the same girl comes back again and says she’s pregnant with his child and this time she said it’s his. Another stressful situation we had to go through. This time I stuck it out. I stuck it out because I felt like this girl is really trying to ruin us and is a whore that just sleeps with everybody. This time my boyfriend’s reaction towards this situation was different. This time he wasn’t so sure. He said it was a 50/50 chance that the child could possibly be his. He and I ended up breaking up towards the end of her giving birth. He cheated on me with another female and I ended up blowing up and rushed him (meaning I fought him). After that he decided to be with his baby momma for the sake of the child. This time the child is his. He reached out to me for 10 months without any response from me. I was crushed (I never wanted to speak to him again, let alone be with him because of his bad decisions). Ten months later we met at a party. He found out I was going to be there by a source. That night we ended up talking a few things out. He wanted to prove his love for me and of course to tell me how sorry he was. About a month later we were official again, but taking things really slow. It was very difficult for me to accept his child. But, it was easy to accept his first child due to the fact I knew about that child and he was already there in the beginning. My boyfriend and I decided to move in together. We spoke about marriage and all. Living together didn’t last too long. He ended up cheating again, talking to me any kind of way, coming home late (three times), etc. When he cheated he and I had a huge fight. At the point I felt like again!?! Still, with all the lies and cheating? I was in shock because this time around I wanted to trust him and he gave me every reason to trust him again based on his actions. But, I guess obviously not. I just wanted us to be happy and on one accord. He felt like I didn’t love his 2nd child and I neglected him. I can say that isn’t true at all. I just needed help in acceptance, but it was never the child. My thing was after he cheated I couldn’t help but to bring back what happened in the past. All the things he had done to me, and to us who were supposed to be a family. From there our relationship declined. Everybody was involved. Family and friends. Some tried to help the situation and some tried to break us apart (my side of family and friends). I ended up packing my bags and left and went back to my dad’s home. I never wanted to leave because I wanted it to work. Three months after moving out, we got in touch. I changed my number as soon as I left. And, now we are on talking terms. But, since I’ve left he’s slept with his baby mama again. That’s the part I don’t like, whether we’re together or not. If she is supposed to be a mistake then why are they sleeping together? I know I skipped so much of my story, but I hope I can get some advice as to why all of this keeps happening. To include more details, he ended up taking her to court for shared custody of the child because she was keeping the child away because of me. She felt if they weren’t together, then the child won’t see his father either. I supported him along the way and I still get a slap in the face. What should I do? Right now I feel like the cycle will continue on. He claims he loves me. And, he probably does, but his way of going about things just won’t change. His first child’s mother passed away after giving birth to him. I wonder if that could have been an affect towards his cycle. I’m not trying to find an excuse because it’s been 8 years. And his 2 nd baby mama is a whore. He said it isn’t in him to hate her and he can’t. I don’t want him to hate her, I want him to be straightforward and stop playing games. He says one thing and does the next. I don’t know if he really wants be with her or not, but if he does then that’s where he should be. And, no, I have no children of my own. I desire some, but he and can’t conceive for some reason. I’ve been pregnant before by my last boyfriend but never with this one. So, no, I don’t know what to do because that’s also important to me. I’m 28 years old and he’s 30 years old. Please help the best way you can from what I gave you. It’s not the full story because it’s so much to say but this sums it all. – Where To Turn Dear Ms. Where To Turn , Well, this keeps happening to you because you keep taking him back. You keep allowing him to mistreat you and take advantage of you. As long as you continue to lay down and let him wipe his feet on you, then he will keep doing it. His baby momma is not going anywhere. She will forever and always be in the picture. And, the fact that he chose to be with his baby momma after you learned he cheated with another woman, that should have been the end of him, FOREVER! You are a glutton for punishment. You like all this drama and stress in your life. So, you have to ask yourself what is it about you that need this and him in your life? He is not positively adding to your life. He is not bringing anything to the table. He doesn’t lift you up, or inspire you or empower you. He is not going above and beyond to make sure you know that you are the number one woman in his life. No, he is lying to you. He doesn’t love you. He loves no one but himself. He’s made his choice in which woman he wants to be with, and that is why he keeps sleeping with his baby momma. That is where he wants to be. So, why can’t you get that inside your thick ass skull? You’re making excuses for him and his behavior, and trying to figure out what is it about him, or his baby momma that he keeps going back to her. You are justifying his behavior instead of holding him accountable for what he is doing. STOP IT! Stop trying to rationalize and justify what he is doing. He is doing it because he can, and you allow him to. Lawd, you are truly emotionally and mentally unstable. I don’t know any woman who would remain with a man after learning that the woman he supposedly got pregnant the first time comes back again a second time and says she’s pregnant, and he tells you that it’s a 50/50 chance it may be his. That was when the relationship should have ended for good. There was no coming back, talking things through, or reconciling. NO! That should have been the end of it. Obviously you’re thirsty and desperate for a man. Obviously you are the one who can’t seem to let him go. There is some soul searching and some deep interrogations you need to do with yourself of why you keep letting him back into your life. He lies to you. You take him back. He cheats on you with multiple women. You take him back. He has babies with other women. You take him back. He tells you that he wants to be with his baby momma, but after they take a break, you take him back. You see the pattern, and the common denominator in all of this – it’s you! You keep letting him back into your life. He can’t keep coming and going unless you allow him. And, for the life of me, I don’t understand why you are clamoring to be baby momma number three. Are you serious? Girl, you are that desperate to keep and have a man that you are willing to bring a child into this horrid drama and life with this low life piece of scum of man? He has two children by two different women, and you said the other child lost his mother right after the child was born. So, ask yourself, where is that child? He is not taking care of that child. If he isn’t involved in that child’s life, and he is recklessly active in his second child’s life, then only imagine what type of father/parent he will be with your child. Please save yourself and don’t consider procreating with this man. It’s a reason you can’t get pregnant by him, and be thankful you can’t. Besides, if he’s running up in his baby momma raw, then why are you letting him have unprotected sex with you? GIRL! I CAN’T! All I can tell you is that at some point you are going to have to start loving yourself. You are going to have to start choosing you, and your happiness. Until you can authentically look at yourself, and learn to love yourself and choose you, then you will keep choosing him and his happiness and trying to make him happy when you are miserable and dying inside. He is killing you spiritually, mentally, and emotionally and you don’t even recognize that you are dying. I hope you will read your letter again, see the pattern, and recognize that you keep this going with him. This could all end if you simply decide to choose you, end it for good, and completely delete him out of your life. Notice that he doesn’t build you, or add to your life. He doesn’t contribute anything positive or good. He is a detriment to your happiness, your joy, and your love. Eliminate him and a whole new world will open up for you. And, please stop calling his baby momma a whore. You’re angry and upset with her when your man is the problem. You’re pointing fingers at her, yet, your man keeps going to her bed.

“Sometimes we cry over the things we’ve lost when we should be celebrating instead.” – M.T.Collins Happiness isn’t always about fixing something that’s broken, sometimes…
Dear Bossip , I’m in a relationship right now that is completely struggling. I lived with my partner’s mother over a few years now. Recently, my mom got hurt and she had to go through a surgery. I packed all my things and went home. Me and my partner were having a lot of issues, probably more so because of the stress – I lost my job, my mom got hurt, and etc. I packed all my things and moved to live with my mom, however, he wants me to move back with him, but I’m considering staying at home. I love living with my family. All those years we were together I saw my mother less times than I can count on one hand, let alone my brother with whom I was extremely close to. Now that I am close to them all again I feel at home. At his mother’s house his brothers, sisters and even his mother would disrespect me and make me feel like I was worthless. He never demanded respect. I always had to defend myself even from him sometimes. Now that I have moved he cries and begs me to come back. This is the first time I actually left him. I’m debating on whether or not if I should go back. I need to be happy and I want to think he will change. He seems to understand where I’m coming from now, I would help. I can’t help that I really love this man, but I need to chase my happiness. I want the freedom and I want to be with him. If I return how should I set my boundaries? Should I believe him? Should I even consider returning? I’m at a loss right now. – To Return Or Not To Return Dear Ms. To Return Or Not To Return , Change? Really, he’s changed? Well, change is moving forward, out of, away from, or doing something different. Change is not doing the same thing again. Therefore, please explain how he has changed, yet, he is still living at home with his momma, and he wants you to come back to the same situation. How is that change? Change would have been him growing up, getting out of his momma’s house, getting a place for you and him, and being a man instead of a boy. Now, sweetie, that is change. Therefore, nope. You shouldn’t return. There is no need to set boundaries because you should not return. And, no, you should not believe anything he is telling you. Does he miss you? Sure, but, just know that he doesn’t respect you, and neither does his mother, brother and sisters. Oh, and by the way, why are you living with his momma in his momma’s house? You sound like a damn fool. You’re a grown ass woman living in another grown woman’s house with your grown ass man. The hell!?!?! Girl, stop. Look at your life. Look at his life. You’re two grown ass people living in his momma’s house, and none of his family members respects you or your relationship. And, he didn’t stand up for you or even come to your defense when his family was attacking you, yet, you’re considering moving back to the same ole bull-ish! Do you even hear you damn self? Though your mother got sick and needed surgery, and I’m sorry to hear about it and wish her well, but you should consider this a blessing in disguise. It is truly a blessing your mother’s surgery had to get you out of that situation, and back into an environment where people who genuinely love you, support you, and make you feel worthy, and they were at home waiting on you. They say the Lord works in mysterious ways, and when the Lord moves you and makes things happen in your life, especially to relieve you from a bad situation, baby, you should count it as a blessing. Since you’ve moved on from your boyfriend you state that you’re happy. You enjoy being with your family and you have rekindled your relationships with your mother and brother. You even stated that you need to continue to chase your freedom and happiness. So, were you happy living with your man and his momma, and his siblings? Did they make you feel wanted? Did they make you feel needed? Were you loved, nurtured, and supported? Did you have peace and joy? Look, you can hope, and wish all you want that he has changed, and that the situation at his momma’s house has changed, but it hasn’t. Things are still the same, and you will return to the same. Don’t go backward, move forward. Go after your happiness and freedom and leave them in their misery. Leave them in their hatred, and sadness. You don’t need that, and it will be very foolish of you to go back and relive that life once again. If you decide to stay with him, then, I do recommend that you don’t move back to his momma’s house. You and he need your own place, your own residence, and your own privacy. Just you and him. His mom and siblings should not have keys to your place. They cannot just show up and come over when they want. And, when they come into your home they have to show you respect and respect your relationship. Finally, don’t move with him unless he has half of the security deposit, and can afford to pay half the rent. If he can’t, then there is no need to live together or even consider moving in with one another. If you’re paying all the rent, and holding him down, and allowing him to stay with you, then you haven’t learned anything. He is still the same young, immature, little boy who wants a woman to take care of him like his momma. If he can’t handle his responsibilities, or live within these boundaries you set, then it’s time to move on and let him go. Love yourself. Love your life. And, continue to enjoy the happiness, love, and respect you are getting from those who have no problem showering you with the affection you deserve. – Terrance Dean Hey Bossip Fam, what do you think?
