Source: Al Messerschmidt / Getty Charles Rogers, a former player for the Detroit Lions , has died at the age of 38 according to a number of still-developing reports. Circumstances surrounding the passing of the former Michigan State University standout are still yet unknown. TMZ Sports reports : One of the people conforming his death is former Michigan State teammate Chris Baker. “Devastated to learn of the passing of my spartan brother Charles Rodgers,” Baker said. “Spoke with his mom this morning. Please pray for her and his children. Please also be respectful of their privacy at this difficult time. Rip Chuck.” Rogers was selected by the Detroit Lions and flashed huge potential — catching 22 passes for 243 yards and 2 touchdowns during his first 5 games of the ’03 season. But, he suffered a broken clavicle, which ended his rookie campaign. The outlet adds that Rogers reportedly struggled with an addiction to pain medication after he suffered another broken clavicle in the 2004 season and was cut by the Lions for good in 2006.

Atlanta hosted a Story Time session with Disney’s “Lion King” Broadway actress, Nia Holloway and HOT’s 107.9’s own, Mz Shyneka. In 2013, Nia was cast as in the principle role of “Nala” in the North American Tour of Disney’s the Lion King Broadway. At 17 years old, she became the youngest actress ever to nab the role. Nia and Mz Shyneka inspired the importance of reading and literacy, at the Barack and Michelle Obama Academy for over 100 Kindergarten and First Grade boys & girls. The amazing morning started with both Nia and Mz Shyneka reading the children’s picture book, Disney’s The Lion King as the students followed along with their own personal copy. WOW!! “This was such a meaningful experience for the students. Being able to connect the Lion King movie with the Lion King book and speaking with an actress from the Lion King Broadway show is exactly how we bring books to life for young readers and spark their interest in reading and loving books.” Tiffany Tolbert, Executive Director of Everybody Wins Atlanta. “This meaningful partnership is just be the beginning and we will continue the work to ensure these students are reading at grade level”.

Source: Aaron J. Thornton / Getty Tamar Braxton’s Homophobic Rant Tamar Braxton just can’t help herself, can she? She has been relatively quiet after her spat with the folks at The Real a few weeks ago, but now she is in a whole heap of s*** over an IG post she sent out Sunday night: “The truth is ladies that these dudes out here really be gay!! It ain’t enough money, beauty, hair, babies in the world to keep them!! They want D**K!! Periodt!! It’s nothing wrong with you, but they will find EVERY reason in the world to make u not good enough!! If he lays with you for 3, 4, 10 days and he don’t touch u, it’s NOT YOU!! HE WANT A MAN!! And that’s on my momma.” So a man not wanting to touch one specific woman means he’s gay? Ma’am, maybe he’s just not that into YOU. Tamar sent this out a little after RHOA so fans speculated that this was in reference to the Dennis/Porsha fiasco , but even then, Dennis was with a woman. Regardless, bisexual and pansexual men exist and wanting to be with a man does not mean that person doesn’t also want to be with women. Also, again, and we can’t stress this enough: MAYBE HE DOESN’T WANT YOU, LADY. Stop blaming and demonizing the LGBT community because of cobwebs in your drywall.

Per XXL , Black will learn his fate Wednesday, Nov. 13. Back in May, Kodak got pinched when he was on the way to the 2019 Rolling Loud Miami Festival. The Feds accused Kodak of falsifying info on the federal forms he had to fill out to purchase four guns in a Miami-area gun shop on a pair of occasions. Per the Associated Press , Black was able to cop three weapons—a 9 mm handgun, a .380-caliber handgun and a semi-automatic Mini Draco weapon—but one was found at the scene of a March shooting in Pompano Beach. Initially, he pleaded not guilty, but he changed it to guilty when he surely realized the Feds had him dead to rights . Kodak Black is reportedly facing 4 – 20 years per the sentencing guidelines but part of his deal includes prosecutors recommending he get the lower end of the spectrum. This is where we mention that this case has nothing to do with the sexual assault case the rapper is facing in South Carolina .
Source: ERIC BARADAT / Getty A white woman at a Tennessee Popeyes was bodyslammed by an employee after getting into an argument with staff and allegedly using the n-word. The bodyslam was caught on video and a 29-year-old man was arrested. KABC reports that the incident took place inside a Popeyes in the town of Columbia last week. According to witnesses, the 55-year-old woman was angry over a charge on her bill and got into with staff when she let the slur go. While one of the employees reportedly warned her that her language could have consequences, Deriance Hughes apparently followed the woman out of the store and proceeded to body slam her to the concrete. The woman’s attorney says that the woman suffered broken ribs and a broken knee. Hughes was slapped with aggravated assault charges. This comes after a white man caught the universal beatdow n inside a Popeyes for vigorously yelling the n-word five times in the restaurant that was full of Black people not having it. Check out footage of the WWE-styled body slam outside the Tennessee Popeyes. We do warn that the image might be disturbing to some so proceed with caution. — Photo: Getty

Source: FayesVision/WENN.com / WENN NASA’s “Hidden Figures Receiving Congressional Gold Medals The exceptional history-making black women who were highlighted in the film “Hidden Figures” are getting their just due. Katherine Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan and Mary Jackson will be honored with Congressional Gold medals. Vaughan and Jackson will receive their honor posthumously while Johnson, 101, could possibly accept in person. The news comes from ABC who reports that Trump signed into law H.R. 1396, the “Hidden Figures Congressional Gold Medal Act” for the women who made history at NASA and were vital in preparing astronaut John Glenn’s orbital mission. Johnson, a mathematician, was previously awarded The Presidential Medal of Freedom and NASA honored her with The Katherine Jonson Computational Research Facility in Hampton, Virginia. A limited-edition Barbie Doll was also recently created in Katherine Johnson’s honor. Congratulations to these forever trailblazers!
It is official. It is exciting. And it is potentially the end of the line for Kody Brown and company. Indeed, TLC has not only confirmed the return date for Sister Wives… it has also released an official synopsis for an upcoming season that does not look like it will lack for drama. This shouldn’t come as a huge surprise to those who have been following the constant rumors and tidbits surrounding this polarizing family. For example, Meri Brown continues to share cryptic messages on her Instagram account, prompting many to wonder whether she’s finally ready to leave the show . Then there are relatives of certain cast members who are urging them to walk away from Kody and his cult as soon and as quickly as possible. Will this topics be addressed on Season 14? Perhaps. But the description released late last week by TLC focuses far more on the Brown’s move from Las Vegas to Arizona and all the fallout that has come along with it. “The Sister Wives have just moved to Flagstaff, Arizona, where they find that the ups and downs of their family’s polygamist lifestyle are as dramatic as they’ve ever been,” opens this synopsis. It then delves into the reception of those around the Browns in their new home state. Continued this synopsis: “Angry neighbors drive one wife out of her rental house and the cost of the many properties the family needs for Kody’s four wives and many kids are threatening a financial disaster. “In hopes of reducing this burden, Kody makes plans for the whole family to build one giant house, but the wives are not so sure.” It’s worth stopping here to examine such a preview, isn’t it? Kody moved his four wives — Christine, Meri, Robyn and Janelle — to Flagstaff at the conclusion of Season 13. We know that Christine purchased a home because she was unable to find a rental that would accommodate pets. We also know that Kody and Robyn have reportedly bought a giant home together . This means that either Janelle or Meri is the wife who was driven out of her rental home, although neither has made a reference to this awkward situation on social media or anything. Shall we continue with the spoiler-filled teaser? Okay. Here goes: An argument erupts when the Browns try to divide up their new property. Tensions with first wife, Meri, are still unresolved and she goes back into therapy with Kody to try to fix their relationship. Following last season, Kody did float the idea of having all of his four wives living together… before they ultimately found their separate places. Christine was probably as vocal as any of the women upon saying via Twitter that living under the same roof together was “not happening.” But it’s clear this will continue to be a sticking point on upcoming episodes of the long-running series. In conclusion, this is how producers preview what’s on tap: Of course, there’s much to celebrate as well. Meri’s daughter Mariah and her girlfriend Audrey get engaged and Janelle’s daughter Madison has a second baby! Sister Wives premieres on Sunday, January 5 at 10pm ET/PT. Will you be tuning in?
