During a recent live interview with journalist Elliot Wilson, the “Flower Bomb” rapper paid homage to his baby mama. “I got a daughter. Her name Oluwakemi Zyla Moon. I got one of the most beautiful, powerful, inspirational, dedicated baby mothers of all time. I do! Somewhere along the line, we lost our way – as far as us connecting as lovers – but I will always hold that woman down for the rest of my life until I have no motherf*ckin’ breath left in my lungs.” SEE ALSO:  Wale Gives Fans Glimpse Into What It’s Like To Live With Social Anxiety He then paused and had choice words for anyone who is out here slandering his current love, India. “Now, you say ‘that model chick.’ By the grace of God, I don’t ever want those words to leave your lips again like that, ’cause that ain’t no model chick. That’s a special human being that came in my life, taught me about affirmations, taught me how to love better, taught me how to be positive…so when we talk about model chick, you’re severely underplaying…” SEE ALSO:  Wale Calls Out Writers After ‘GQ’ Article Disrespects Him, Twitter Debate Ensues He continued by saying that the fact she takes pictures for checks does not diminish her intellect and value. “So whether that’s my girlfriend or not- that model chick, that woman’s beautiful inside and out. That woman taught me so much about myself. And model chick’s disgustingly underplaying what she really is. She is a smart, beautiful, motivating Black woman. She just happens to be good and makes six figures for taking pictures.” Way to stand for the women in your life. You can watch the riveting moment below.

Source: Kevin Rawls / Radio One Digital In 2019 rapper Megan Thee Stallion has had nothing but monumental wins from top hits to a successful tour to the campaign of women empowerment through “Hot Girl Summer.” But the Houston based rapper suffered the biggest loss earlier this year when her momager Holly Thomas died from a cancerous brain tumor in March. Want Exclusives First? Click Here To Sign Up For Our Newsletter! On Tuesday the rapper posted a loving tribute to her mom, a woman whom many of her successes would not have been possible. “Damn I miss my mama, all we did was crack jokes all day she is the only person that could make me cry laughing,” she wrote. “I be feeling so lost without her but I try my best to keep my s–t on track how she would.” View this post on Instagram Damn I miss my mama, all we did was crack jokes all day she is the only person that could make me cry laughing. I be feeling so lost with out her but I try my best to keep my shit on track how she would A post shared by Hot Girl Meg (@theestallion) on Oct 15, 2019 at 5:32pm PDT   In the video Megan teases her mom while she stands in a parking lot. From their interaction you can tell their relationship was loving and playful, even in the midst of conducting business.

In an interview with ESSENCE , Meg told the outlet that she credits her mother for her love of music and hip-hop. “I knew I wanted to be a rapper when I was, like, 5,” Megan said. “My mom was a rapper. I would go to the studio with her, and that definitely showed me I can do this. I wanna do this. I remember my first time ever listening to rappers like Pimp C and Biggie, and being like, ‘All this would sound super cool if a girl was saying it,’ so I gotta go do this.” In a separate interview with Durtty Daily  a month after her mother’s death, she called her mom her Number 1 supporter. And while we all grieve differently, it seems that Meg has used her work ethic to elevate her success and in turn, it’s undeniable that her mom is proud and smiling down on her.

Source: Kevin Winter / Getty Since the passing of rapper Nipsey Hussl e, his family and the mother of his eldest child, Tanisha Foster , have been embroiled in a custody battle. Want Exclusives First? Click Here To Sign Up For Our Newsletter! While the family petitioned the court for guardianship, Foster wrote that she was opposed to the idea of her daughter living with her aunt, Nipsey’s sister. “I strongly oppose both of the petitions filed by Samantha Alexandria Smith, Samiel Asghedom and Angelique Smith,” Foster says. “I am the mother of Emani Asghedom and there is no good reason my rights as her mother should be taken away from me, or otherwise reduced as her mother.” Apparently, a judge didn’t agree. SEE ALSO:  Lauren London Granted Guardianship Over The Estate of Her & Nipsey Hussle’s Son According to TMZ , Nipsey’s family was granted guardianship of 10-year-old Emani Asghedom. The family has called Foster unfit while she maintained that after Nipsey’s death, things became very difficult for her. She claimed that the family kicked her out of the apartment Nipsey paid for. She claimed the family tarnished the co-parenting relationship she and Nipsey had built over the years. The court found that Nipsey’s family provided enough evidence to prove that Nipsey’s siblings Samantha Smith, Sam Asghedom and his mother Angelique Smith have been named Emani’s guardians. Emani is expected to inherit half of Nipsey’s 2 million estate. The son he shares with Lauren London, 3-year-old Kross, will inherit the other half. SEE ALSO:  Nipsey Hussle’s Daughter Honors Him At Her Graduation Lauren was recently granted guardianship of the estate, meaning she will manage the money left to Kross. Tanisha hasn’t spoken explicitly about the custody ruling, but she did share this image on her Instagram page.

Zoë Kravitz Gets Candid About Her Beauty Evolution And Discusses Preferring Her Hair Natural

Posted on October 17, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Source: Bertrand Rindoff Petroff / Getty Zoë Kravitz  has been serving up cool girl slayage for years now, but you would be surprised to know that the “ Big Little Lies ” star has struggled with defining her look. While it can be hard to believe that the YSL ambassador is just coming into her own on the beauty front , this once again proves that celebs are just like us! In a recent interview with Refinery29 , the actress revealed that just like many young Black woman , she has had her reservations about her natural hair. “The struggle’s always been real for me and my hair,” she tells the publication.” The options can seem limited when you have a kinkier texture. I really prefer my hair being natural. While natural hair can be a huge deal for many young Black women who has experienced push back from society about their coily texture, Zoe shares that beauty lane as a whole has been a bit of a personal transformation. “The same goes for makeup, too,” she’s continues. “It shouldn’t be something you use to cover up. And I feel like YSL Beauty isn’t asking me to cover myself up or be something I’m not. Makeup should highlight your individuality.” We have to admit, this is refreshing to hear. In the current Instagram-era where many people believe in Facetune and heavy makeup, perfection can be an unrealistic goal in beauty. It’s nice to see a celeb get real and honest about the constructs of the beauty world. As the star goes through a timeline of her looks through her interview, we see how she gradually experimented with her look to find her niche and transformed into a beauty icon before our eyes. From little to no makeup to edgy looks and ultimately graduating to safe and classy beauty moments, Zoe is truly unpredictable and we can’t get enough.

Gabrielle Union Says Casting Director Once Chose Bianca Lawson For A Role Over Her Because She Was “Prettier”

Source: Mike Pont / Getty Although  Gabrielle Union  is now known as one of the most beautiful women in entertainment and film, she wasn’t always treated this way. In a recent interview with AOL’s “Build Series,” the actress explained that she was once passed over for a role because she wasn’t considered pretty enough. Want Exclusives First? Click Here To Sign Up For Our Newsletter! While auditioning for a role in “Goode Behavior” in 1996, Union was rejected from the role of the daughter. Instead, actress Bianca Lawson was casted and went on to star in the UPN series. Union said when her manager asked the casting directors how she could improve her craft for future auditions, she was told it wasn’t talent, it was looks. “I was testing for a pilot of UPN, Google the network, it no longer exists. Coincidence, I think not,” she started with fun shade. “It was between me, and another girl–she’s known, Bianca Lawson, from “Queen Sugar” fame, who’s lovely. And she ended up getting the job. My manager said, ‘Why? is there anything we can give her to work on for the next gig?’ And they were like, ‘No, Bianca’s just prettier.’” Text “RICKEY” to 71007 to join the Rickey Smiley Morning Show mobile club for exclusive news.  ( Terms and conditions ). Thankfully, the budding actress didn’t let early rejection deter her from her dreams. “I live for an F you moment.
