Poor Thang: Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms’ Christmas Macaroni Caused Chaos On Twitter

Source: Riccardo Savi / Getty Keisha Lance Bottoms’ Mac And Cheese Criticized On Twitter We Atlantans love our Mayor named Keisha—but her cooking might be a whole ‘nother story, especially after she caught holiday hell on social media. Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms often shares pics of her cooking creations and this year’s Christmas holiday was no different. KLB started off strong with pics of Brussel sprouts… Lol…my sister said my Brussel sprouts are crispy like potato chips. pic.twitter.com/HUQefaF2YT — Keisha Lance Bottoms (@KeishaBottoms) December 25, 2018 and mouthwatering monkey bread. Perfect monkey bread! pic.twitter.com/B0SnqTH8t4 — Keisha Lance Bottoms (@KeishaBottoms) December 25, 2018 Things went waaaaaay left however when she posted a pic of her holiday macaroni that looked like it lacked cheese and was desperately dry. Mac and cheese…. pic.twitter.com/E0bA5eZgZU — Keisha Lance Bottoms (@KeishaBottoms) December 25, 2018 Twitter then went CRAZY on Keisha for her criminal concoction and the results were hilarious. This picture dried out my contact lens — Me (@BaddieLambily) December 25, 2018 pic.twitter.com/vbZktS6FYI — Lilian Uziward Verticus (@MonaKinkCurlz) December 25, 2018 She’s since fired back and claimed that the mac and cheese wasn’t finished and was FAR from dry. Lol…For the shady none cooking crew, add more cheese a few minutes at the end & then mix it up to make it juicy. Trust, nothing dry here. https://t.co/vSN0tTJ1qK — Keisha Lance Bottoms (@KeishaBottoms) December 25, 2018 This isn’t the first time Mayor Bottom’s cooking has caused scrutiny. Last Christmas her followers were distraught to see her using Zatarain’s gumbo base to make gumbo for her buddies Roland Martin and Don Cheadle. According to ATL’s 60th mayor, however, it was absolutely delicious. For those who questioned my gumbo, @rolandsmartin @DonCheadle #GumboWars , but a mere bowl left. May not be perfect, but it sure was good. pic.twitter.com/pTmJ80HxAk — Keisha Lance Bottoms (@KeishaBottoms) December 25, 2017 You tell ’em, Madam Mayor. Was KLB’s mac and cheese that bad or is Twitter exaggerating—again???

Habitual Liar? Jesse Williams Denies Sister-Smashing Woman His Kids Call “Auntie”

Jesse Williams Says He’s Not In A Relationship With Cierra Pardo Jesse Williams is setting the record straight for his ex and the courts about who he’s “not dating”. Rumors are swirling that Jesse is “seeing” a woman who his family has parlayed with for years, Ciarra Pardo. Tricky thing is, there’s a court order stating that the children are NOT to  meet any new romantic interests  before the six-month mark of dating. No Jesse is fessing up to just being friends with this woman his kids call “Momma C”. TMZ reports: Aryn Drake-Lee has claimed Jesse is romantically involved with a woman the kids call Mama C. She claims it’s in violation of their custody arrangement which requires them not to introduce a significant other until the relationship has lasted 6 months. He says she’s a  longtime mutual friend  of theirs and that’s it. Jesse just filed legal docs saying Aryn has been interrogating their 2 children, trying to find fault with things he does. Jesse and Ciarra have been kicking it hard since September. Remember when Jesse was all “I’m not hitting that cute chick at work”…and he WAS? Do you think he’s telling the truth?

Who You Finna Try? Roland Martin Decided To Let The Clap-Back Choppa Sing Mo’Nique A Sweet Lullaby

Image via Fortunata/Splash Roland Martin Tastefully Thrashed Mo’Nique Via Twitter Mo’Nique has been on a crusade the past couple of weeks in an attempt to garner support for the fight against gender and wage equality. Unfortunately, media personality Roland Martin caught a stray shot from Mo and instead of turning the other cheek he decided to clap back  with a fully loaded clip. Originally responding to Mo’Nique’s original tweet questioning his track record for aiding women: Brother Roland please listen we getting ready to do press. I appreciate your fight, however where is your fight for EQUALITY when it comes to your sisters. Let's talk brother. — Mo'Nique Worldwide (@moworldwide) January 26, 2018   He decided that he had time to pull receipts : Mo’Nique, the fact that you are even asking the question about what I have done to fight for equality and sisters shows you don’t know. I don’t talk about it. I DO IT. Have done it my whole career. I don’t need to talk. I put in the work https://t.co/6Gv3PHa03C — rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) January 26, 2018 ANYONE who watched my @tvonetv shows #WashingtonWatch and #NewsOneNow know that. They know who I put on as guests; panelists; even guest hosts. You don’t want to go there with me. https://t.co/6Gv3PHa03C — rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) January 26, 2018 But again, Mo’Nique, you really need to address the email @JawnMurray read that he said was from @willpowerpacker to your husband. That is damning. It spoke of how you mistreated the crew, men and women. Either you did or you didn’t. Speak to that. https://t.co/6Gv3PHa03C — rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) January 26, 2018 I don’t waste my time in silly tit for tats. But Mo’Nique, you gonna have to own up to your stuff too if you want others to. That @EBONYMag cover you were on with @chrisrock and @IAmSteveHarvey ? I conceived that issue. I was told the photo shoot was a horror because of you. https://t.co/6Gv3PHa03C — rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) January 26, 2018   See him read her for filth on the next page:
