Since news broke that she was calling it quits with Kevin after she filed for divorce in April, Wendy sort of danced around details about her pending divorce. She hadn’t fully addressed the situation, until now. Over the weekend, pics and videos of Wendy and a mystery guy attending the Fierce Ball on Saturday night in NYC were floating around on social media. The man looked a lot like her “type,” i.e. her soon-to-be ex. People questioned if she was out and about with Kevin. Turns out, she was with her security detail – a bodyguard named Web.
Source: Paras Griffin / Getty The Zeta Phi Beta, Inc. sorority found itself in the middle of some heated criticism after a report went out that the organization banned transgender women from its ranks. The sorority has reversed course on the reported ban and will now allow transgender women to join its ranks. Around two weeks ago, the Washington Blade publication reported on Zeta Phi Beta’s diversity statement, which included a line that all potential members must be “cisgender” or born as the sex they identify as. The backlash was strong enough that the organization issued a statment exclusively to ESSENCE, which can be viewed below. From ESSENCE : Early Sunday morning, the sorority, which will be celebrating its 100th year of existence next January, released an exclusive statement to ESSENCE, apologizing for the previous diversity statement, and emphasizing that there is no “ban.” “Since our founding on January 16, 1920, Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc. has sought to create a sorority that embraces and values all of our members,” the statement read. “Sadly, a previous diversity statement made by our organization fell short of that goal and for that, we offer our deepest apologies.” Zeta acknowledged that their current membership “already includes transgender women,” noting that “they have always been entitled to the same rights, privileges and responsibilities as any other member and shall retain the rights, privileges and responsibilities they were endowed with once they took the oath and became a member.” — Photo: Getty

Source: Josiah Kamau / Getty As the OG Kardashian-West child, North West has been in the spotlight for her entire life–and luckily for her, it looks like she’s really growing into it. Even though North has always been an absolutely adorable little one, she hasn’t always taken to the superstar life bestowed upon her by her famous parents. During the earlier years of her life, North was known to snarl at cameras just like her daddy, running from the paparazzi every chance she got. But now, her views have changed a little bit, and it seems like the almost 6-year-old North we know today is more into the spotlight than ever. Just today, North and her mom decided to put Kim Kardashian’s maternity leave to good use by making a music video for the hottest song out right now, Lil Nas X’s “Old Town Road.” Even though there’s a good chance that Saint and Chicago (and the new baby) are also at home during the production of this video, it says a lot that North wanted to star in this one by herself. Kim is always mentioning that North isn’t the biggest fan of her little brother, so it’s really no surprise that she wanted her debut music video to be a solo effort–well, beside the intro Kim assisted with. In honor of this brand new display of North’s adorable creativity, let’s take a look at some of her other shining moments throughout the past few years: North’s love of fashion is everything, and this sequence of photos that ends with her crying is absolute gold. We all played in our mom’s closet as a kid, but her selection is definitely a lot more extensive than most of ours.

Source: NBC / NBC Days after news hit that Steve Harvey was dropped from not one, but two shows, the talk show host and iconic comedian had some optimistic words about his future. (Remember: NBC canceled his show “Steve” to give Grammy winning singer Kelly Clarkson his time slot and they replaced his hosting gig for “ Little Big Shots” with Oscar-nominee Melissa McCarthy .) In a clip shared by his wife Majorie Harvey on social media, Steve told his audience that he has many more chapters in his life write. “I happen to be 62-years old. I’m in the middle of my 62 nd chapter of the book that I’m writing. There’s been some good books in there, there’s been some good chapters and some bad chapters and some chapters that lasted longer than I wanted them to. That homeless chapter lasted way too long than I wanted it to.” After the crowd laughed, Steve added, “But in this 62 nd chapter, I’ve got my finger on the corner of the page. All I’m doing is about to turn it. I can’t wait to see what God got for me on that other page.” Take a look: View this post on Instagram So proud of you baby! Let’s go do this #harveys #nextlevel #staytuned A post shared by Marjorie Harvey (@marjorie_harvey) on May 10, 2019 at 3:47pm PDT As the Root noted , Steve and NBC’s relationship may have soured when the network lost it ownership stake of the show when Steve struck a deal with IMG Original Content, the company that produces Harvey’s talk show. It’s believed that the series finale was taped last week. No doubt: It’s been a rough couple of years for the 62-year-old. From receiving backlash for meeting with President Trump to his verbal scuffle with Mo’Nique to recently getting dragged for telling folks that rich people don’t sleep eight hours, his public persona and reputation has been raked through the coals. Hopefully, he can get come out on top again. Good luck Mr. Harvey! RELATED NEWS: Welp!

Source: Thomas Concordia / Getty via MadameNoire.com : After filing for divorce it seems that Wendy Williams has found her way back into the arms of a few formerly estranged friends. In March Williams and radio host Howard Stern were enthralled in a nasty exchange after Williams labeled Stern “Hollywood,” citing that his notoriety had watered down his shock jock appeal. Stern hit back at Wendy hard, calling her a “jealous b—,” all in the midst of Williams’ recent bout with addiction, along with rumors of a reported affair between her ex Kevin Hunter and his alleged mistress Sharina Hudson. But as the cover star for the latest issue of The Hollywood Reporter, Stern opens up about the heated back and forth and expressed remorse over their disagreement. “That was me at my worst. I thought she was saying that I was a piece of s–t and I sucked. But as [I hear it] now, I don’t see it as an offense at all,” he said. “If ‘Hollywood’ means that I’ve evolved in some way and the show has changed, then yeah, she hit the nail on the head.” Text “RICKEY” to 71007 to join the Rickey Smiley Morning Show mobile club for exclusive news.

On Monday, Williams said she was relieved to end the feud with her former mentor on the most recent episode of her hit talk show. “By the way, Howard, I read the article with you on the cover and I saw that you mentioned me and that you apologized. Howard, you know what, if you never apologized to me ever in your life, you would still be one of the most influential people in shaping my career.

You’ll never hear that on repeat…I love him!
