Cardi B Explains Why She Won’t Go On A Headlining Tour

Source: Thaddaeus McAdams / Getty Sorry Bardi Gang, but Cardi B is refusing to do a headlining tour. The “Press” rapper broke down why she won’t be embarking on her first headlining tour despite her success. In a now deleted Instagram post, Cardi said it is more lucrative for her to do festivals rather than concerts of her own. The costs of going on tour and funding her stage production would come out of her pocket, which she isn’t ready to do.

Welp because here you go, let me break it down for you,” she captioned on the deleted post . “Let’s say if I go on tour and I do 600K a night right… sounds good but let’s get in the touring business shall we? Stage production gotta be massive since the fans pay massive so just on stage and production I will have to put about 450K maybe more a night since you know Bardigang deserve everything. Don’t forget, outfit, makeup, hair, I’ll be left with like 150k a night.” Sign Up For Our Newsletter! Close Thank you for subscribing!

I just could not right myself or stand on my own. Lying down felt like I was being submerged in water. It was this weird sensation of almost dry drowning, which is an awful feeling.” Ford also suffered a fractured skull and bleeding on her brain. While recovering mentally and physically, Ford found her way back into the gym. She has thankfully had support from her loved ones as well as a psychologist. “For me, recovery is just getting back into the gym, developing overall strength, improving upon flexibility,” she said. “I also have to do cognitive therapy and memory exercises because my memory is just terrible.” [ione_media_gallery src=”https://rickeysmileymorningshow.com” id=”1912962″ overlay=”true”] This story was originally published on MadameNoire.com .  ALSO TRENDING ON RICKEYSMILEYMORNINGSHOW.COM : After A Horrific Car Accident, Melyssa Ford Is Back In The Gym Melyssa Ford Badly Injured In Car Accident With 18-Wheeler Melyssa Ford Survives Deadly Accident With 18-Wheeler: “I’m Lucky To Be Alive” Follow @TheRSMS

Mother Of Nipsey’s Daughter Says Family Has Stopped Taking Care Of Her Since His Passing

Read the original post:

Source: Adriana M. Barraza/WENN.com / WENN The custody battle for Nipsey Hussle ’s 10-year-old daughter Emani Asghedom seems to be far from over. While Hussle’s family hasn’t publicly spoken against Emani’s mother, Tanisha Foster, it’s pretty clear that they don’t deem her fit to raise Emani. While Foster has filed a petition for guardianship, Hussle’s sister and other members of the family have asked the court to grant them guardianship. According to The Blast , Foster recently spoke out against the request. “I strongly oppose both of the petitions filed by Samantha Alexandria Smith, Samiel Asghedom and Angelique Smith,” Foster says. “I am the mother of Emani Asghedom and there is no good reason my rights as her mother should be taken away from me, or otherwise reduced as her mother.” Text “RICKEY” to 71007 to join the Rickey Smiley Morning Show mobile club for exclusive news.  ( Terms and conditions ).

She said that since the rapper’s death,  she’s “had to depend on the goodwill of family and friends for my food, clothing, shelter and transportation. Ermias had always provided for these needs up until his date of death.” She said that Nipsey also consistently gave her large sums of cash which she used to take care of Emani.

Mountain Climbing Caucasity: Bhad Bhabie Thinks People Don’t Like Her Music Because She’s White

See the original post here:

Source: Gary Miller / Getty Bhad Bhabie aka The Cash Me Ousside girl hit a lick, became a rapper and now has the never to think she’s actually talented. The successful struggle rapper thinks “people” don’t like her music because she’s white, basically. The alleged MC born Danielle Bregoli took to Instagram to air her privileged grievances. “Ya’ll will promote half these female rappers that dead ass suck ya’ll only f*ck with most of them cuz they pretty or you like they ‘style,’” she wrote on her IG story. “I promise you these bitches anit [sic] on that but when it comes to me a bitch that can really rap ya’ll don’t wanna f*ck with me cuz how I came up and bc I’m white.” Oh that’s why? Not because she’s a privileged white girl who came to fame for acting a fool on Dr. Phil . Or that there are plenty of talented alternatives to listen to whose entire musical existence wasn’t pieced together by a record label. Nah, it’s solely because she’s white. #SARCACM, in case you’re slow. Also, she’s 16, so there’s that. Regardless, Bhad Bhabie just reportedly inked a $1 million publishing deal . So why is she mad?

U.S. State Department Weighs In On A$AP Rocky’s Sweden Ordeal

More here:

Source: David Wolff – Patrick / Getty A$AP Rocky is still awaiting trial in a Swedish prison with several reports stating the conditions were less than satisfactory, and contact with the rapper has been minimal. The U.S. State Department has weighed in on the ordeal of the A$AP Mob star in a new statement. POLITICO reports : A State Department spokesperson said that the department is aware of the case and that Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has been briefed. Top officials at the department, including Robert O’Brien, the special presidential envoy for hostage affairs, are also closely monitoring the situation and working to make sure the rapper is treated fairly. “There are certainly some facts about the arrest and detention that raise concerns,” the spokesperson said. “We expect all governments, including Sweden, to treat American citizens fairly and with respect. … We hope to see ASAP Rocky and his colleagues back on tour and reunited with friends and family soon.” Swedish prosecutors must decide by Friday whether to charge Rocky, who is being held in solitary confinement, or ask a court to let them hold him longer. Despite video evidence that shows Rocky and his crew did not initiate the altercation, Swedish officials are still struggling with how to approach the case under the legal system. — Photo: Getty

13 TV Characters Who Are a Waste of Air

Some characters make watching TV shows worthwhile.  Others… not so much. Some make you wonder why you're even watching said TV show. Know what we mean? Below, we've listed characters who are a waste of air. It's sad, but true. They suck. And this is why: 1. Rick Grimes – The Walking Dead Look, we really loved Rick during the earlier seasons of The Walking Dead. He took the leadership role very seriously, but somewhere along the way, he started to make mistakes. He didn’t take ownership of them and continued to be in power. He may be gone from the main series, but fans still have to endure this character sulking his way through a trilogy of movies. 2. Jon Snow – Game of Thrones At one point, people cared about Jon Snow, but by the time the final season arrived, he might as well have been a guest star. He did very little for five episodes, before plucking up the courage to murder his aunt/lover. His reward? Going beyond the wall … after the Night King’s army had been obliterated. 3. Owen Hunt – Grey’s Anatomy Remember when April and Arizona were written out of Grey’s Anatomy because the creative forces behind the show were struggling to serve all of the characters? Well, Owen should have been the one to go before either of those two. His storyline has been tedious for several seasons. He sucks the air out of every scene he’s in. It’s time for him to go. 4. Alaric Saltzman – Legacies Alaric has appeared on The Vampire Diaries, The Originals, and more recently, Legacies. The character continues to make the same mistakes he has since the character first appeared on screens in 2009. More recently, his ridiculous decision to not teach his students defensive magic almost resulted in a lot of them dying. 5. Laurel Castillo – How to Get Away with Murder It’s Laurel’s world and everyone is just living in it … at least, according to her. Every single plot twist over the last few seasons have most revolved around Laurel and her crazy family and it needs to stop. 6. Octavia Blake – The 100 At one point, Octavia was the best part of The 100, but her descent into madness during the show’s fifth season solidified her as a villain, and completely irredeemable.

Jenelle Evans and David Eason: Surprise, We’ve Got New Dogs!

OK, so this is some really terrible news. Like, just sincerely awful. Because you know how Jenelle Evans is the world's worst pet owner? There are so many examples of this, like there's the old Teen Mom 2 scene where she kept her dog and Nathan Griffith's dog in cages that were way too small for them. She yelled and screamed at them and even let them loose outside and told them to leave — they could have easily been hit by a car. Then there was the time that she tried to get that same dog of hers to fetch a lit firework. That very same dog — her pitbull, Jax … he's been through a lot — seems to have a broken tail in the photos and videos she's shared of him in the last couple of years, lots of people are mad about that. And then, of course, there's the case of Nugget, her little French bulldog . You know what happened, but real quick, let's recap. See, Nugget was never trained properly, and it seems like Jenelle and David never taught the kids how to interact with animals in a respectful way. We saw that in that video David shared on Instagram of Ensley climbing all over Nugget and getting close to her face, even though the dog was very clearly uncomfortable. Nugget gave her a warning nip, as dogs tend to do — a little “back up” communication. She didn't even break the skin, but David grabbed her, threw her outside, and shot her . We know that because both David and Jenelle said that's what happened, as did countless reports about what went down at the Eason home in the following days. Now, Jenelle is saying that she's not sure what happened to her dog , but she never heard a gunshot and she never saw David do anything. Ridiculous, right? You know what else is ridiculous? They just got two new puppies. In a new video David shared on his YouTube channel, he introduces the puppies — two Anatolian Shepherds named Buddy and Junior. In his caption, he explained that “Recently we had to find a better way of protecting our chickens and livestock.” “We have hawks and crows always eating the heads off our chickens and plastic owls are not doing the trick.” He said that poor Jax, Jenelle's old pitbull, killed one of their bigs, so “we decided to give him to a friend.” “After lots of research we came across this breed of dog called the Anatolian Shepherd,” David continued. “They are one of the most unique types of dog I have ever seen and have the best temperament and disposition of any dog I have ever owned.” He finished up his explanation with “They are a livestock guardian breed and do not mind eating and sleeping with all our animals on The Land!” Right, so this is horrible for several reasons. One, they have absolutely no business owning any animals after what happened to Nugget, and it's insane that they're flaunting two new puppies like this. Two, David keeps talking about how sweet and calm the puppies are in the video — does he really think tiny little Nugget was more dangerous than these two? Three, a quick bit of research on this breed shows that they're working dogs, and without rigorous training, they can become destructive and aggressive. They can also grow to be well over 100 pounds, with males reaching up to 150 pounds. If they couldn't handle training Nugget, who was maybe ten pounds, then what are they going to do with two 100+ pound dogs? They obviously didn't learn anything with the CPS case and the animal cruelty investigation, and we know all the kids go out and help with tending to the animals. What's going to end up happening to these sweet little puppies? Watch David's video in full here:
