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: Bernard Smalls / @PhotosByBeanz Things got real testy in Miami. Tory Lanez was caught on video allegedly trying to issue a fade to someone at Club Liv Friday (Nov.8). According to TMZ , the “Jerry Sprunger” crafter took a swing at Love & Hip Hop: Miami cast member Prince after exchanging some words with the reality tv star. The video clearly shows Lanez throwing a haymaker at Prince, but it’s unclear if he connected with the punch. Per TMZ : The Canadian rapper-singer was LIV Miami Friday night, where he was booked to do a show. Prior to taking the stage, however, he got into a little dust-up with someone who must’ve said something truly out of pocket … ’cause Tory tried punching him near the VIP area. TMZ got a hold of this video in the moments Tory swung — it’s unclear if he connected with the guy cleanly, but the dude fell back, and Tory charged after him. Eyewitnesses tell us that the rest of Tory’s security team and entourage allegedly joined in on the beat down too. As for who the alleged victim is, a rep for LIV Miami tells TMZ it’s Prince Michael Harty … a rapper/promoter on ‘L&HH: Miami.’ The club tells us, “Last night our security broke up an altercation between Love and Hip Hop’s Prince and Tory Lanez. We have a zero-tolerance policy towards violence, and both parties were immediately asked to leave the venue.” Police were reportedly called about the situation but did not go to the club to investigate. Neither Lanez or Prince have publicly acknowledged that incident happened. According to the celebrity gossip site, Lanez didn’t let the fight get to him and continued partying while his team handled the situation. Tory Lanez’s next project, Chixtape 5 , is due out November 15, you can watch Tory swinging at Prince, allegedly, in the video below. — Photo: Bernard Smalls / @PhotosByBeanz

At this weekend’s Camp Flog Gnaw Festival, YG invited Stormy Daniels onstage to perform the track and she even threw in a little slander and shade towards the president. My name is Stormy f*cking Daniels, and I am the reason Donald Trump is f*cked,” Daniels said to the crowd. The adult film actress then engaged in some banter with YG, who asked Daniels if she actually had sex with the president to which she replied, “No, I just laid there.” Twitter user @sammcastillo__ captured the moment in the clip below.

Source: Sheri Determan/WENN.com / WENN Alicia Keys Speaks On Her Son’s Fear Of Being Different Alicia Keys took to Instagram recently to vent to her fans about how labels are getting in the way of people embracing who they really are. She opened up about these frustrations on Instagram after an incident with her four-year-old son, Genesis, who she took to the nail salon recently. While they were there, the toddler struggled with whether or not to go through with getting the rainbow colored nail polish he wanted. “He’s in the chair and he’s like, ‘I want [a] rainbow.’ So he tells the lady that he wants rainbow colors on his nails. And she brings all of these colors and she paints each nail a different color. And after she painted his nails, he looked at me and he said, ‘Mommy, I don’t want this on my nails,’” Keys said. When the songstress asked her son why, Genesis went on to explain that could have problems with the colors on his nails. “Can you believe this? 4 years old. He’s 4!” she said. “And he already understands the concept that someone is gonna judge him because he chose rainbow colors on his nails.” View this post on Instagram Been thinking about how over labeled and over judged we all are… can u feel me?? A post shared by Alicia Keys (@aliciakeys) on Nov 9, 2019 at 5:43pm PST Alicia encouraged her son to wear his nails proudly, telling her Genesis that people would love his nails because it showed off his creativity. She also assured the 4-year-old that a lot of men enjoy painting their nails. Ultimately, this incident left the singer thinking about how judgemental the world has become. “The way I see it, there is masculine and there are feminine energies inside of us all, period. It gets concerning to me that we can’t just explore these different sides of ourselves. These different energies that are within us.” She continued, “Even for me, myself, I oftentimes express the masculine energy that’s inside of me. And, all the time, if that happens, there are the judgments, and there’s the stereotypes, and there are all the energies that come towards that. And for my boys, [it’s] similar, if they want to express the feminine energy that’s inside of them. There’s all of these judgments, and all these rules, and stereotypes, and vibes.” Alicia wrapped up her venting session, saying, “We should be able to explore and express [our masculine and feminine energies] however we want to.”
