People have been complaining for years about how Wendy is trash because of her opinionated persona. But the gag is, she has the highest rated morning talk show, which means folks are tuning in just to see the madness unfold. Most recently, Nicki Minaj called out the talk show host for being “demonic” and critical about the rapper’s recent nuptials. Wendy wasn’t always on TV and safe from getting hands put on her by pissed off celebs. Once upon a time, it was just her, her guest and a mic. But that still didn’t stop the media queen from coming at peoples’ necks. Hit the flip to check out some of the many time Ms. Williams almost got her behind handed to her on a platter. via GIPHY
Have you ever heard of a “pre-honeymoon?” Apparently it's a honeymoon that comes before a wedding. Most people would just call that a vacation. One bride took to her closed Facebook group to announce to all of her guests that the wedding would be postponed. Family and friends had donated a total of $30,000 to help her wedding, and the bride assured them that the money would not be going to waste. She and her husband-to-be would be embarking upon a pre-honeymoon using those funds, because they'd been so darn stressed . To her astonishment, her would-be guests were annoyed by the postponement and furious that she was using donated wedding funds to fund her life. Her meltdown is a sight to behold. Take a look: 1. Here’s how it starts We haven’t gotten a direct look at what is probably a closed Facebook group, but thankfully this person on Twitter was amazing enough to share this series of screenshots of a bride-to-be who is already horrifying her loved ones. 2. The bride(zilla) had an announcement She’s postponing her December 1 wedding with less than a month’s notice. On, they’re still getting married, but at a new TBD date months in the future. Thanks for the $30,000 that people donated towards the ceremony. She’s keeping it for a pre-wedding honeymoon because she’s feeling SO stressed lately. Don’t worry — when she sets a new date, she’ll ask for MORE money. 3. It didn’t go over well After initial displays of shock, the bride — Pam — asks her friends and family to chill out, because their responses are making her feel attacked. As far as she’s concerned, they have no right to complain about what she does with the money that they donated “to her.” 4. She’s not taking any calls about it As an unidentified family member pleads with her to reconsider this absolute nonsense, her reply is essentially just “nah.” She’s not even going to take the calls of people who donated hundreds or even thousands to her wedding ceremony. 5. Here comes the rich uncle A lot of donations were in the form of a few hundred dollars (which is still a lot to give in today’s hellscape of an economy). But more than a third of the 30k came from Rich Uncle, who sent $12,000. He promptly tells this hellclown of a bride that if he doesn’t get his money refunded, he’ll take her to court. 6. He’s mostly nice about it Bridezilla says that there was no need for threats, but she just wants to use the money for unintended purposes for the next few weeks or months and then ask for more to throw the wedding that he was largely paying for anyone.

Lil Kim has laid her father to rest. The hip hop legend’s father passed after a long fought battle with Alzeimer’s. Kim said goodbye to her father surrounded by family and friends. Fellow Junior Mafia member, Lil Cease , took to social media to show love to his “sis Lil Kim” and “the entire jones family.” View this post on Instagram My Sis Lil Kim Father Passed Away Last Week!!

Love Y’all Forever!! #MafiaFamily A post shared by LilCease (@lilcease) on Nov 1, 2019 at 1:15pm PDT Back in 2012, Lil Kim told OK Magazine that she was stepping up to take care of her father, even though their relationship was strained. “We have to feed him, because he can’t make his own food. He can’t really pour juice. He can get dressed, but we have to help him sometimes. Basically we have to help him do almost everything. He can walk around and stuff like that. And again, it’s early stages,” she said of his Alzheimer’s diagnosis. Text “RICKEY” to 71007 to join the Rickey Smiley Morning Show mobile club for exclusive news. ( Terms and conditions ). “He remembers to do some things, but sometimes he forgets some things. Like one time, he forgot to turn off the stove, and the coffee pot caught on fire. We had to run and put it out. It was really crazy.” Continuing, “Here’s the thing – we feel and know that he has an early case of Alzheimer’s. The doctors won’t really diagnose him with it, but we know that he does. They say that it seems to be an early case of it – this is what they’re saying. But he has this shaking-jitter condition that is almost the same thing as – don’t get this wrong, because then people will be like ‘oh, her dad has M.S.’ – no, he almost has the same symptoms as a person who has Multiple Sclerosis where they shake – they shake really bad. Yes. So it’s those type of symptoms. It stems from the situation.” Even though Lil Kim is grieving the loss of her dad, she took to social media to explain that the tragedy led her to heal her relationship with Trina, who also lost a parent recently. “She comforted me and it was exactly what I needed in that moment,” she said.

Legendary actress Nia Long is also in the film. Text “RICKEY” to 71007 to join the Rickey Smiley Morning Show mobile club for exclusive news. ( Terms and conditions ). Here’s a short synopsis courtesy of Mashable : “In The Banker, a based-on-truth story and Apple Original Film, the duo plays Bernard Garrett and Joe Morris, respectively. During the 1960s, the two hatched a plan to build a real estate and banking empire around the idea of helping African Americans forge their own path to finding the American Dream. To do it, they sought help from a working class white guy by the name of Matt Steiner (Nicholas Hoult, of X-Men fame). Garrett and Morris taught Steiner how to socialize in rich guy circles, and used him as the face of their operation at a time in history when the color of one’s skin was an open and in lots of cases legally mandated barrier (rather than the systemic barrier it still is today).” READ ALSO: Sign Us Up!: Amazon Announces Samuel L.

A Florida woman is suing a popular massage parlor chain for refusing to provide her with services because of her HIV positive status. Alecia Tramel was visiting a Massage Envy in Aventura for her monthly massage and when she was asked about her medical history things went left. Text “RICKEY” to 71007 to join the Rickey Smiley Morning Show mobile club for exclusive news. ( Terms and conditions ). She asked me, ‘Do you have any medical conditions?’ I say, ‘I’m HIV positive.’ She said, ‘Get undressed to your underwear, get on the table and cover up,’ and she leaves out of the room,” Tramel told Florida’s Local 10 News. Tramel said an employee returned and told her, “We will not be able to provide you with a service because you need a doctor’s consent.” “(The) first time in 19 years I feel devastated, but instead of it making me want to crawl under a rock, it fueled me,” Tramel said about the experience. SEE ALSO: Over A Hundred Women Come Forward Stating They Were Allegedly Sexually Assaulted At Massage Envy Tramel is now filling a lawsuit against the owners of the franchise. “You can’t discriminate in the provision of services, public accommodations, which Massage Envy is,” Tramel’s lawyer Courtney Cunningham said. “You can’t discriminate in providing services to people who are HIV positive just because they are HIV positive.” Tramel, who was diagnosed in 2000, said she was shocked that she was discriminated against. “I went to the car, sat in the car, and I said, ‘This is what it feels like.’ I think I was numb. I felt pain, isolation and fear from a place I went to get a service.” Tramel added that she is also symptom-free, so there were no grounds to be concerned about her physical health or getting a doctor’s note.

Source: Nicky Nelson/WENN.com / WENN Irv Gotti has never been one to bite his tongue but he has stayed forever evasive concerning a celebrity indiscretion. Now he has no chill. As spotted on HipHopDX the record executive has long been romantically tied to Ashanti . While the rumors have persisted both he and the “Baby” songstress have denied any physical interactions—until now. On a recent visit to The Wendy Williams Show, Lorenzo admitted that the two were intimate after he separated from his wife. Naturally, Wendy couldn’t contain her inner joy as he spilled this never before brew of tea. “When me and Deb separated, she caught me cheating — this is why I’m here. Ashanti is not a home wrecker, guys! Ashanti had nothing to do with me and Deb — Deb caught me when I was directing ‘I Cry’ in Baltimore” he explained. Gotti went into detail that he too fell victim to the classic girlfriend swoop down. “Deb being the vicious person she is, she came down unannounced. She said, ‘I’m Mrs. Lorenzo. Give me the room key.’ The door was latched, but she knows I’m in there. That’s what broke me and Deb up.” But to hear the Tales producer tell it he did nothing wrong as he and his wife’s relationship was already a thing of the past. “I can’t mess with another girl until I sign the divorce papers?” he asked rhetorically.

Source: Splash / Splash News Kim Kardashian is once again utilizing her celebrity status to lobby to help get a wrongfully convicted man set free. According to TMZ , Kim Kardashian-West spoke with Rodney Reed from death row just last week to discuss his scheduled execution. According to West there are new witnesses and evidence to exonerate Reed, and implicate the real killer, which according to West is more than enough evidence to request a stay. Reed was convicted for the murder of Stacey Stites in Bastrop, Texas; where cops claimed he raped, assaulted and strangled her to death. Despite lacking evidence and recently surfaced confessions, Reed was sentenced to death, although he has maintained his innocence for over 20 years. In an effort to help garner publicity, Kim Kardashian took her to her Twitter to call out the state governor, encouraging him to “do the right thing.” “PLEASE @ GovAbbott How can you execute a man when since his trial, substantial evidence that would exonerate Rodney Reed has come forward and even implicates the other person of interest,” Kim wrote. “I URGE YOU TO DO THE RIGHT THING.” PLEASE @GovAbbott How can you execute a man when since his trial, substantial evidence that would exonerate Rodney Reed has come forward and even implicates the other person of interest. I URGE YOU TO DO THE RIGHT THING. — Kim Kardashian West (@KimKardashian) October 19, 2019 Reed’s brother, Rodrick, thanked Kardashian for using her platform to try and free Reed. “I want you to know you are a major God-send to my family — more than you may ever fully realize in this lifetime,” he posted in a message obtained by TMZ . “You are a blessing to all the families you advocate for. We’re so glad you have publicly voiced that you also believe he is innocent.” Supports of Reed have been rallying for his release after a man named Arthur Snow reportedly filed a statement alleging that Stites’ fiancé confessed to him that he killed her for cheating on him when they served time together, the site states. Stites’ fiancé, however, has denied the claim. Snow says they were both in the Aryan Brotherhood in prison. Kardashian is reportedly working hard to provide legal help to Reed, who is scheduled to be executed on Nov. 20.
Source: Bernard Smalls / @PhotosByBeanz When Love & Hip Hop: New York returns for its 10th season, fans will see some familiar faces from previous seasons. Page Six is reporting that OG cast members, Jim Jones and his forever fiancée, Chriss Lampkin will be back on VH1’s hit reality show. Mona Scott-Young is hoping Jones and Lampkin who haven’t been on the famed franchise since season 1 and 2 can restore the feeling fans claim is missing since the show first premiered. They are not the only ones returning, Tahiry Jose, who is the ex-girlfriend of returning cast member, Joe Budden will also be on board and contributing to the drama the gossip column reports. Joe is currently single after proposing to Cyn Santana last season. So we expect some sort of storyline involving all three of them. Along with those names, fans can look forward to the return of Safaree Samuels, his very pregnant wife Erica Mena-Samuels, Remy Ma, and her husband, Papoose. Kimbella, who famously got hands and feet put on her literally by Chrissy Lampkin in the reality show franchise’s inaugural season, will be back. It will be interesting to see how that dynamic plays out between the both of them in the 10th season. Kimbella is also dealing with the fallout of her husband, Juelz Satana, being locked up plus news broke recently about the foreclosure of the couples New Jersey $650K condo . Ironically Jim Jones and Lampkin also saw their NJ home seized by the bank as well. Rich Dollaz, who also has been in the news for missing child support payments , will be back as well as Cam’ron’s ex JuJu, Yandy Smith, and makeup artist Jonathon Fernandez. After years of being labeled the lackluster show of the Love & Hip Hop franchise, it looks like season 10 of LHHNY could bring it back to its glory. We are patiently awaiting that super trailer to give us a preview of the mess, and we know it’s not too far from dropping. — Photo: Bernard Smalls / @PhotosByBeanz
