Source: Pacific Press / Getty Just when we thought Kevin Hunter couldn’t get any more triffling, he went and proved us all wrong. See, Wendy Williams’ soon-to-be ex husband now wants to be paid spousal support and child support despite the fact that their son is going to be 19. According to Page Six , Hunter is also requesting the famed talk show host pay for their son’s college tuition, as well as “equitable distribution of all personal assets.” Apparently, Wendy has said that she will work to establish an “appropriate amount of child support” as well as “other further relief as the Court deems fair and equitable.” Listen…she’s better than us. As we previously reported , in April Williams filed for divorce from her husband of nearly 23 years, having those papers delivered at 6:30am. Hunter has also been fired as the executive producer of talk show . As we know, there are plenty of reasons for Williams to walk away from her marriage, which includes Hunter allegedly having a decade long affair with Hudson , perhaps even having a baby with her. That, and Williams has been battling with addiction issues , which Hunter’s alleged cheating may have caused her to spiral. Not to mention, there have been accusations of physical abuse, including a report that the police came to their home earlier this year because someone had accused Kevin of poisoning the talk show host . We’ve said it before, and we’ll say it again: We are glad that Wendy is getting as far away from Kevin as possible. Hopefully, she won’t have to pay half of her hard earned money to get him to go away for good.

A teenager was reaching for yet another greasy fry from a shared basket at the mall’s food court when she was spotted by the agent that would change her life. It’s a popular couture themed spin on the traditional Cinderella story and it’s oft repeated in cover stories and documentaries . But it’s rarer than it seems. And for models like Christina Mendez waiting to be discovered was never an option. In an exclusive interview with HelloBeautifu l the former Full-Figured Fashion Week Model Of The Year and mother of two explained how her path to the runway differed from the storybook version.

I had a son and he was diagnosed with autism, so I was more engulfed with that situation than I was with fashion or even caring about how I looked,” explained Mendez. Though her son’s journey presented her family with significant difficulties his challenges also inspired her to live her dreams. Watching her child navigate through situations that were tougher than him than most kids filled with faith that anything was possible with the right amount of fortitude.

Modeling just meant to me like achieving a goal that I thought I would never be able to achieve and doing something that people assumed that I was never it was never gonna happen,” she said. Once her son was set into a regular routine Mendez sought out castings where she could start getting her face known around the industry. She had limited experiences before that she drew on. “I used to do fashion shows in high school like little high school things nothing major,” she revealed.

She acted as if it was besides the point in the moment showing up like she had as much of a chance as anyone else to be the one who ended up ripping the runway .

I met one designer that designer booked me for a job that job became a campaign and then it just triggered down into amazing stuff,” she shared. “I think it’s very important for me to speak up about that experience because coming into the industry you’re set up to think like around 16, 17 they’re gonna pick you up while you’re eating at McDonalds casually and some agent is gonna say ‘You look amazing! Your look is amazing you should fly to Paris! And that’s not really the reality. Not all journeys start that way.” View this post on Instagram Taking all kinds of risk in 2018 …who is with me? A post shared by Christina Mendez (@modelchristinamendez) on Jan 16, 2018 at 6:24pm PST She wants to combat the narrative that there is only way to make it as a model because she wants to prevent people from getting in their own way due to fear of failure. “You could kind of get discouraged and not continue with your dreams ,” she warns. “I feel like my faith and journey helps other ladies and women say there’s no limit to it. Like Christina she started super late, her son was seven years old, not the typical model situation, look what happened with her.” View this post on Instagram Big Hips Red Lips #plussize #plussizemen #plussizemodel #plussizefashion #lingerie #confidence #curves #curvesrock #curvesarein #curvesaresexy #bodypositive #curvesarebeautiful #red #hips : @lucaspicturesnyc @littlelimedress @redcarpetfaces #body4me A post shared by Christina Mendez (@modelchristinamendez) on Apr 8, 2017 at 7:52pm PDT Shortly after she secured that first gig, she became booked and busy. “For me the story was fast, shocking, and like I felt groundbreaking,” said Mendez. She broke ground in more ways than one. “There was a lot of stuff I had to bring to the table that I had experienced like having a child with a disability and being vocal about that, so I was more vocal about that than I was about fashion for a long time,” she said. She found ways to slip vital information into the content she was pushing on social media and conversations that took place during the panels she was invited to speak on as her career shifted to higher levels.

Culturally we’re like ‘nothing is wrong with our kid’ ‘don’t talk to him’ it’s like we get really defensive and that really affects the outcome of our children. Even with mental health , we just try to sweep it under the rug and if we don’t talk about it, we can’t help our kids. So I feel super obligated to talk about it and fashion just gave me that platform.” She is also diligent about creating transparency around the images in the modeling industry. She uses her work with QVC to emphasize the importance of age and size diversity to her seven year old daughter. “I like to discuss you know, ‘This is an older model, This is a young model.’ No matter how different we look we are all models and beauty means something different to everyone.” But while the rise to creating change through her success was swift and strong there were definite roadblocks.

There were a couple of agents that dropped me because I couldn’t attend every casting. I wasn’t that type of model that could fly to Paris for one day and come back for three days my life had to be planned because of him.” Never for a second did she doubt the decision to commit to those plans fully. “I always choose my kids first!

I will never forget this. It was Rocawear and they were sending models to Africa for this amazing shoot, one plus size girl one skinny girl. It was gonna be an amazing opportunity and I couldn’t make it because my son had a therapy appointment and I couldn’t find a sitter and I cried for days.” She did not let the misfortune stop her and soon she was seeing it as a blessing.

So, it wasn’t meant to be at that time, but everything comes around full circle and if you could just kind of express yourself to these agents and clients some of them will understand and others wont and that was just not your time and not your opportunity.” Today as she works with brands like BET, Ashley Stewart , Kmart, Kohl’s, Qristyl Fraizer Designs, and Rue107 she is an example of what can happen when you refuse to set limits on your potential. “My motto is you’re never too old.

Source: Nuccio DiNuzzo / Getty R. Kelly has been hit left and right with legal haymakers, most especially those related to his infamous dealings with young women and reports of sexual abuse. Now, federal authorities are on the hunt for more visual evidence of the troubled singer’s allegedly foul ways. TMZ reports : Law enforcement sources tell TMZ … the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Illinois is interviewing parties closely associated with Kelly. We’re told prosecutors have been asking about the possible existence of VHS tapes purportedly showing Kelly having sex with minors. Rumors about an alleged stash of R. Kelly sex tapes have been floating around since Kelly went to trial on child porn charges back in 2008, but it’s never been found … not by law enforcement, anyway. As we’ve reported … the feds are building another case against Kelly in Illinois, which we’re told is entirely separate from the 2 probes currently underway in New York — one by the Eastern District and another by the Southern District. We’re told feds in Illinois are investigating Kelly on 3 different fronts: sex trafficking, tax evasion and obstruction of justice. Authorities are also looking into the possibility of obstruction of justice in Kelly’s 2008 sexual assault case where he was found not guilty. — Photo: Getty
Source: James Devaney / Getty Remy Ma may be in a world of trouble after she was arrested and charged with assault for allegedly blackening the eye of an old Love & Hip Hop castmate . However, the Bronx rapper believes the charges will be dropped once prosecutors see the evidence. Reports TMZ : The rapper’s attorney, Dawn Florio, tells TMZ … Remy has security cameras installed in her house that show she was there at 9:30 PM on April 16 — the same time “Love & Hip Hop: New York” star Brittney Taylor claims Remy punched her backstage during a concert at NYC’s Irving Plaza. We already knew this, but according to Florio … prosecutors were “dumbfounded” in court this week when Remy’s side claimed to have evidence to support she was nowhere near the spot of the alleged assault. Remy’s lawyer’s confident once they review the home security footage, Taylor’s case will be destroyed and Remy will be cleared. Also, Remy’s lawyer claims he has more evidence that Brittney Taylor is trying to pull the jig. There’s more — Florio insists there’s NO surveillance footage from Irving Plaza that backs Taylor’s claim she was assaulted in the green room area … AND Florio says she’s obtained a photo from the night of the alleged assault timestamped hours afterward that shows Brittney with no visible marks on her face. Florio also claims after Remy left her house that night, she stopped at Target to pick up some items for her baby and didn’t arrive at Irving Plaza until around 10:45 PM … 15 minutes before she was scheduled to perform at 11. The potential vindication for Remy is essential since there is word she would have committed a parole violation if convicted of misdemeanor assault. We gotta hear all the sides. — Photo: Getty

Today (May 5) the Wu-Tang Clan were bestowed the honor of having the intersection of Targee St. and Vanderbilt Av. in Staten Island named after them and have it officially being dubbed The Wu-Tang Clan District. With Ghost Face Killah, Raekwon the Chef and Inspectah Deck amongst other Wu members as the guests of honor, the ceremony was attended by a gang of Killer Bee fans who chanted “Wu-Tang!” as the street sign was being unveiled for the first time. “It’s like a dream right now,” Ghost said at the ceremony. “Twenty-five years later to come back and to have district, a block named after your crew, it’s like, yo, it’s unbelievable. First of all, people don’t get to make it 25 years later. But coming from Staten Island, I wanna tell y’all anything is possible. I never saw this day coming. I knew that we were some ill MCs, but I didn’t know it would take it this far.” But y’all did, Ghost. Y’all did.

So it only makes sense that the B2K singer is joining the cast of Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood . Reports TMZ : Sources close to production on the VH1 reality show tell us … Raz B has already joined ‘L&HH’ and for the past few weeks a film crew’s been following him around, capturing all his ups and downs on the B2K reunion tour. We’re told Raz B inked his deal last month with the show’s Hollywood branch … and he’ll be featured in the upcoming season. Raz B is already giving ‘L&HH’ plenty of content. As we first reported … he got arrested in Minneapolis this week after cops said he strangled his girlfriend during an argument outside a Macy’s. Ultimately, the County Attorney’s Office decided not to prosecute the singer based on a lack of evidence. Reportedly, all the aforementioned incidents just happened to be caught on camera.
