Source: Bob Levey / Getty “ Black Panther ” just came out in theaters and there is already trouble being caused by internet trolls. A number of people on social media are pretending that they were beaten up or harassed by “black thugs” during the movie. Ebony reports that some are posting pictures on social media with fake injuries.

Several of the accounts of the trolls have been suspended. Many people that support this movie believe that they are just trying to take away the great moment of the film. Try again internet trolls!

Just a few weeks ago, Demi Lovato teased that she had big news coming up. Now, her announcement is here — she's embarking on a new tour! As you can see in the video (and photos) below, she's grabbing the attention of her fans by rolling around in lingerie. Hey, it works. Demi Lovato looks absolutely stunning — as always — in this short video. The former Disney star has opened up about her eating disorder struggles in the past. She's opened about her personal mental health battle, sharing her story with the world in the hopes that she can reach some fans and show them that they're not alone. She's also been candid enough to share before and after photos from her eating disorder . But the incredibly courageous Demi Lovato's new Instagram upload is less about sharing her pain and her journey and more about making an announcement. The 25-year-old singer is announcing the South American leg of her “Tell Me You Love Me” tour. Every time that she shares a tidbit about her international tour, it becomes more and more all-encompassing. And that's great. Fans all around the world deserve to have the full Demi Lovato experience. We said that this teaser is more about making an announcement, but she's also flaunting her incredibly sexy look in white lingerie in the process. Demi Lovato's journey to love and embrace her body has really paid off. This is a woman who flaunts her curves but also exercises regularly and maintains healthy habits to keep her body just the way that she wants it. This entire video, as you're about to see, is an unending thirst trap. Which sort of makes its “Go tell your mother” text, a lyric from her “Cool for the Summer” hit from a couple of years back, a little awkward. If you're not a frequenter of social media — particularly Twitter — you may not be aware that South America is easily the most vocal continent when it comes to appealing to singers and imploring them to tour. Okay, we say South America, and that's true, but mostly we just mean the nation of Brazil. We've seen #ComeToBrazil hashtags driven by eager fans since Twitter was in its nascency, directed at every celebrity under the sun. It's probably safe to say that Demi Lovato can likely expect packed shows and excited fans. And warm weather. Demi's fans responded well to the announcement. Aside from one-word responses like “wow” and “babe” and emoji-laden responses of hearts and heart eyes alike, she received comments like: “She's just. So. Perfect.” “Damn you are fine wife material.” “Holy moley . I love you and your incredible voice.” Another fan commented: “Don't forget Asia!” We're sure that she won't. And, after seeing this video, we absolutely can't wait to see how Demi will announce that leg of the tour.
Amber Portwood may have moved on in real life, but on reality TV time, she's still on Marriage Boot Camp Reality Stars: Family Edition . In fact, she's still having to shoot down claims that her baby is Matt Baier's . But she's accused of more than that. As you'll see in the Marriage Boot Camp teaser video below, Amber Portwood is accused of being high — and she freaks right out . This season of Marriage Boot Camp Reality Stars: Family Edition , a show that continues to have one heck of a title, got a little unplanned publicity. Why? Because of Amber Portwood. Everyone on the show has some degree of name recognition — I mean, Brandi Glanville's there wearing stars over her nipples (also in the video). But Amber Portwood wasn't what you'd call a “happy camper” … in that the marriage (it was actually an engagement) that she was supposed to be boot camping ended. It wasn't just that the relationship ended at camp. Amber also found someone new … while she was there. Andrew Glennon may have seemed like he just popped into existence out of nowhere. To many fans, anyway. In reality, Andrew actually worked on the show — on Marriage Boot Camp — and he gave Amber Portwood a shoulder to cry on behind the scenes. He apparently gave her some other body parts on which to do other things, however. Because Amber Portwood is pregnant with her second child . And, though the rumor mill continues to suggest that the baby might be Matt Baier's (and we get it — the timing is really close), Andrew Glennon is the father and they're both excited about this new chapter in their lives. But we're getting ahead of ourselves. Right now, in reality television time, Amber is still struggling through her relationship with Matt. We all know that it's doomed to fail now and, quite frankly, most people have known that since they started dating. But it isn't her various issus with Matt that's giving Amber pauses in this video below. Instead, she gets accused of being high — as in, you know, high on drugs. And though it's an accusation that she herself has also made (within the same teaser video), Amber Portwood absolutely freaks out. Various reality stars on the show are arranged in a deeply demeaning “classroom” set-up. (We're not saying that a show like this can't possibly help anyone, but the theatrics for the sake of entertainment value can be deeply insulting, and may even be designed to push them to their limits while the cameras are rolling) Upon hearing the suggestion that she is “still high from two shows ago,” Amber Portwood stands up, furious. “Do I look f–kin' high?!” she exclaims, furious. The tension is palpable. It's no secret that Amber Portwood has struggled with drugs in the past. She has a scary history with addiction. That may be the cause of her ire — for an addict to be accused of being on drugs is a much bigger deal than it would be for someone else, who might merely shrug off the intended insult. Of course, we see Amber respond to multiple things this way — again, just within this very short teaser video. So part of that is just … Amber being Amber. But clearly there are parts of Amber that we're not seeing, because this is the same show where Andrew Glennon fell in love with her.

While 2017 saw him emerge as the “Fur God”, Saf recently teamed up with Club Foreign to release a limited run of “Stunt Gang” apparel. Featuring two red, white, and black bomber jackets, and a “Jamaica Flag” bomber jacket, the line was inspired by Gatorade’s refusal to cut him a cheque for rocking their Air Jordan x Gatorade Jacket in a recent video that went viral . “ Gatorade didn’t cut the check…so imma make my own! ” was the statement made in one of his recent Instagram posts. Check that out below and more from Safaree on page 2.
Warren Ballentine explains why the violence that occurred this week in Parkland, Florida, is a part of the very terrorism that America was founded on. White America has terrorized just about every group in America from the beginning, starting with the Native Americans. So it’s no wonder that we have major difficulty cultivating an honest, productive narrative around home-grown terrorism. Warren explains what we can do about gun control, knowing this about United States history.Click on the audio player to hear more in this exclusive interview from “ The Rickey Smiley Morning Show .” Listen to “The Rickey Smiley Morning Show” LIVE every weekday from 6/5am C.
