Source: Bettmann / Getty Ever since Quincy Jones ‘ Vulture interview set the Internet ablaze, folks have been fact checking the music legend’s surprising statements. One particular story caused major discussion when Quincy suggested actor Marlon Brando had sex with Richard Pryor. Richard’s widow, Jennifer Lee , even confirmed the statement as true. However, now Richard’s daughter — fellow comedian Rain Pryor — is stepping into the picture. In a Facebook post, she said Quincy’s statements were false. “Daddy did NOT have relations with Brando,” she said. “There were no trips to his South Pacific Oasis, no flowers or love notes between. Not even a film role.” Rain did however detail Richard’s relationship with a trans woman. “My dad was very open with his life, so much so that news of his relationship with a trans woman in the early 70s and 80s wasn’t really newsworthy nor notable,” she said. “As a child I knew her, not as the trans person in our home, but the lady whom everyone accepted. So much acceptance I did not know she was Trans until recently.” In a previous post, Rain went on to condemn Quincy Jones, calling him “once a brilliant music producer who is losing his mind, and decided to garner publicity for himself with a sensationalized interview.” You can check out both posts by Rain below as this story continues to be hotly debated.

Is Rick Grimes the luckiest person alive? It certainly seemed that way on The Walking Dead Season 7 Episode 10 when he continued to round up people to fight for his cause against the brutes known as The Saviors. Rick’s storyline kicked off pretty much where we left off last week. Rick and his people were surrounded by a new group. The powers that be were not lying when they claimed they were expanding the world. Watch The Walking Dead Season 7 Episode 10 Online There have been so many new groups throughout The Walking Dead Season 7 that it’s getting pretty difficult to keep track of it. If you watch The Walking Dead online, you’re probably enjoying it. The series has suffered over past few seasons with a lack of consistent pacing and storytelling, so it’s surprising that Season 7B is off to such a strong start. Rick tried to reason with these new people, who laughed off the idea of going to war. However, the leader — known as Jadis, pulled Rick aside and asked for some more details. It was evident she did not want to agree to war straight off the bat, or her people would have questioned her leadership. Yes, Rick would know a lot about that and could probably take some leadership training from his new best friend. Jadis was eager to find out whether Rick was worthy of her time, so she threw him into a pit of garbage with a walker who had a little too much protection. Rick struggled to get his bearings because he was so shocked by all of it, but thanks to Michonne shouting through a pipe at him, he managed to eke out a victory. Who would have guessed you could use garbage to take down one of the most protected walkers in the history of walkers? Not us. Unfortunately for Rick, the scuffle resulted in him getting a huge hole in his hand. But, he did manage to prove himself to this new community, and they agreed to go to war if Rick was kind enough to get them some weapons. Considering the way Rick said they could win the war, Jadis probably knew he was talking crap. It would not be surprising if Jadis double-crossed them at the last second. Yes, she needs guns, but is she prepared to throw her group into a war that will signal the loss of most of her people? I think not. Jadis is one of the more intriguing characters this time around. She built a strong rapport with Rick and did not seem to care that Gabriel almost killed one of her people. Maybe she’s smarter than she looks. Elsewhere, The Saviors appeared at The Kingdom to pick up their latest shipment, but Richard was still having issues with one of them and the pair fought it out. However, they were told to quit it, but this just fueled Richard’s appetite for murdering some Saviors. He reeled Daryl in on a plan to to kill some and send the villains Carol’s way. But Daryl had no idea Carol was living in such close quarters and battled with Richard to stop his crazy plan before it went too far. The pair fought, with Daryl eking out a victory. Ezekiel and his men then dropped off some cobbler to Carol, who did not want anyone near her. Just as she sat down to enjoy her book (at a window!) her door was knocked again. This time, however, it was her old pal, Daryl. It made for a heartbreaking reunion. Daryl felt the need to lie about Glenn, Spencer, Olivia and Abraham being murdered by Negan. This was down to the fact that Carol was already hurting because of the way she had acted in the past. They shared dinner and Daryl returned to the Kingdom.

Does Daryl have an untold story of working in a zoo, or something? Either way, Daryl made his getaway from the Kingdom with the intention of returning to the hilltop. Would he really steal the lion for the war? That’s not out of the question. What did you think of the episode? Hit the comments below! View Slideshow: The Walking Dead Cast: Before They Were Stars…

By now you’ve probably heard more than a few wacky rumors regarding Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner’s divorce . There’s been the run-of-the-mill Ben drinks and gambles too much stuff, but there are also some more out-there theories for the tin foil hat crowd. For example, have you heard the one about how Matt Damon drove Jen and Ben apart ? Yup, that’s something people are actually saying. There’s been so much absurd chatter surrounding the end of this marriage that we can’t even pass it all along. (Trust us, most of it isn’t worth your time.) But every once in a while, a gem comes along that’s simply too good to ignore, such as the ridiculous claim made today by the (n)ever-reliable UK tabloid the Sun. Apparently, an insider tells the Sun that Ben has remained friends with Jennifer Lopez in the years since they dated, and Jen 2 (Garner) was initially cool with it. But after Affleck was spotted getting flirty with Lopez at the Oscars , Garner did some digging and discovered that the exes had been spending more time together than she realized. Needless to say, Garner was pissed, and the ensuing argument led to the silent treatment, which was followed by divorce. The Sun even goes so far as to claim that the Bennifer 2.0 breakup is just the first step in Affleck and Lopez getting back together. “Everyone is talking about J-Lo and Ben and saying it’s inevitable they will get together again at some point,” says the insider. “We call them the Richard Burton and Liz Taylor of Hollywood.” Wouldn’t Richard Burton and Liz Taylor be the Richard Burton and Liz Taylor of Hollywood? Anyway, we highly doubt a Lopez-Affleck reunion is in the cards (if for not other reason than J-Lo is already in a serious relationship). So we guess you’ll just have to get your early-2000s nostalgia fix somewhere else. Maybe Hot Topic is having a sale on trucker hats or something.
