A California woman has come forward to claim at $522 million jackpot from a winning Mega Millions ticket that she bought back in June of this year according to San Diego Union-Tribune . Laarni Bibal purchased ONE $2 Mega Millions quick-pick ticket from Sorrento Deli-Mart in San Diego and hid the ticket until she was ready to claim the cash. This woman sat on half a billion dollars for months before coming forward to claim her life-changing bag. She say she consulted the “Lottery Winner’s Handbook” on how to deal with her soon-to-be newfound wealth. We can’t IMAGINE living regular life for all that time knowing that them M’s are sitting in a “secret hiding place”. Bibal chose the cash option and was paid $340 million after taxes. She plans to buy a house and pay off her bills, but with that kind of money, we’re sure she’s gonna do a lot more than that.

According to reports from USA Today , the announcement was made on Wednesday following a lengthy investigation into the incident that went down on December 19. During a Buena-Oakcrest meet, Maloney forced Johnson to either wear a hair cover, cut his hair, or forfeit his match. According to The Undefeated , the referee told Johnson that his hair was “unnatural,” and the ref only gave him 90 seconds to trim his locs down. A video showing Drew’s hair being cut went viral, and obviously, people were incredibly angry to see what the young man had to go through. Epitome of a team player A referee wouldn't allow Andrew Johnson of Buena @brhschiefs to wrestle with a cover over his dreadlocks. It was either an impromptu haircut, or a forfeit. Johnson chose the haircut, then won by sudden victory in OT to help spark Buena to a win. pic.twitter.com/f6JidKNKoI — Mike Frankel (@MikeFrankelJSZ) December 20, 2018 The Division on Civil Rights worked with the New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association to come up with a suitable punishment for Maloney, and has now implemented a revised “Guidance on Race Discrimination Based on Hairstyle.” The new policy indicates that guidelines which previously banned, limitedm or restricted hairstyles closely associated with those of African-American descent are now in violation of New Jersey law. “Student athletes should be able to compete with each other on a level playing field,” New Jersey Attorney General Gurbir S. Grewal said in a statement. “Racial discrimination in the enforcement of the rules of any sport is inconsistent with the spirit of fair play.” On top of punishment for the referee who so ignorantly asked the student to cut his dreadlocks, Maloney’s suspension created a tidal wave across the NJSIAA with all referees, coaches, and athletic administrators required to undergo implicit bias training. Wrestling officials will also need to undergo hair discrimination training with a focus specifically on Rule 4.2.1, which addresses concerns over hair length, and not on hairstyle. It’s about time this racist ref gets served with a proper punishment for what he made Andrew Johnson go through.

Source: GETTY / Getty Iggy Azalea Vs. Wendy Williams Wendy Williams is not one to mince words. So when she went on her show to talk about Nicki Minaj, she mentioned Iggy Azalea , but referred to her as “the Australian girl with the fake body.” Yiiikes. This prompted Iggy to clap back on Twitter with this zinger: “Who’s the crack head in the halfway house with the gossip show thing?” Now, we get the intention here, to clap back. However, a white woman talking about crackheads? We don’t know about that one, chief. See how Twitter is reacting and whose side you’re on: a white Australian female rapper just tried to insult a black woman by comparing her to 1. A crackhead & 2. A man — on Beyoncé’s Internet.. where’s her management? That’s not how you manage that situation. at all. pic.twitter.com/H64EclkMju — Majesty Ria (@ToriNicksWho) September 18, 2019

Source: Nicky Nelson/WENN.com / WENN Tamar Vs. Loni Love It’s been three years since Tamar Braxton ‘s unceremonious exile from hit daytime TV show “The Real.” Since then, she’s been on quite a monster reality TV run, seemingly having moved on. The same could be said for The Real, as they’ve won daytime Emmy Awards and seem to be perfectly fine with their situation, too. Leave it up to Wendy Williams, though, to stir the pot. On Wednesday’s show, she asked Tamar about her time on the show and she responded with this: “Here’s the thing. I don’t want to be anybody’s marketing tool this season, no shade. I just wish everybody well and I feel like sometimes God has to move you out of situations before you become more toxic to yourself….What if I was in a situation where I’m doing ‘Braxton Family Values’ and very stressed and then I’m doing this other show where people are being catty behind my back. What kind of person would I be right now sitting on this couch? I wouldn’t be focused, I wouldn’t be ready for my transformation, I wouldn’t be ready for my elevation and that’s where I’ve gotta go. I’ve got to go up and up and up.” This prompted a live response from Loni Love : Tamar, then, took things to the next level by posting some hearsay about Loni being shady: View this post on Instagram *allegedly* in my @therealtsmadison voice… When the guilt settles …. Lonnie cut the BS!!! Thanks @wendyshow my sister, for having me!!! U may not have an Emmy YET, but the girls are SURELY watching … anyway, back to my transformation!! A post shared by Tamar Braxton (@tamarbraxton) on Sep 18, 2019 at 3:02pm PDT Loni chimed in with this comment: “Who writes letters? Who sent this? …let’s talk it out…stop going on every other show. You know you want to…and bring ya man!” This all seems pretty, pretty nasty and only getting worse by the day. Sometimes I feel like Tamar is still mad at Loni for laughing when she said someone called her a muppet pic.twitter.com/PY9seQ8cBt —
