Shaq Diesel and Dame Dolla out here trying to bring attention to the battle rap scene… and they actually got some real bars! It all started when Damian Lillard was a guest on The Joe Budden Podcast, where he adamantly claimed to be a better emcee than Shaquille O’Neal. For what it’s worth, Dame is right, however in the rap world you can’t allow anyone to one up you… So, Shaq dropped a dis record aimed right at Lillard. It didn’t take long for Dame to fire back with this… So, what do you think? Is there a clear winner here? Let us know!
Source: Pool / Getty R. Kelly will at least be in jail until his 2020 trial after an attempt to go free on bail was shot down by a Brooklyn federal judge on Wednesday (October 2). The troubled R&B star’s legal team filed a motion on Monda y (September 30) stating that Kelly was in poor financial shape and not a flight risk but the judge in the case detected a bit of b.s. in the air. As reported by the New York Daily News , Federal Justice Ann M. Donnelly sided with the prosecution’s assessment that Kelly was indeed a flight risk and that home detention was too lenient a move considering the mountain of charges he faces and an alleged history of obstructing justice in his favor. Kelly’s defense attorney Steven Greenberg has said several times in court that his client is cash-strapped and suffering from alleged health woes. Adding to that, Kelly is only allowed one visitor at a time which has caused a bottleneck of visitation between his two girlfriends, Azriel Clary and Joycelyn Savage. The prosecution presented bail hearing charges that Kelly has been hiding massive royalty checks numbering to an amount near to $1 million and funneling the funds through the bank account of a childhood friend. Kelly was not present in court on Wednesday as he’s currently housed in a Chicago jail. Kelly’s sex crime case is set to take place on May 2020. — Photo: Getty
Source: Monica Schipper / Getty Kylie Jenner Hung Out With Tyga Well well well what do we have here? It appears as though the Travis and Kylie breakup has quickly gone from cordial split and a need for space to some real vindictive ish going on. That’s because E! News is reporting that Kylie quickly turned her new single hood into a late-night rendezvous with ex-overaged lover Tyga: A source tells E! News that the former couple met up late Tuesday night, after Kylie and her friends, Stassie and Kelsey, enjoyed a late night bite at the Hollywood hot spot Delilah. “Kylie wanted to have a girls’ night out last night and Stassie thought it would be best to get her out of the house and her mind off the news,” a source explains. “He was with a few of their mutual friends at Sunset Marquis and invited Kylie and her girlfriends to come hangout, since they were already out.” The insider does add that Kylie and Tyga “have been in touch” since their split in 2017, but says they “don’t talk often.” This is getting quite petty and Twitter had ALL the comedy. Take a look… Kylie couldn't wait 2 seconnds to go back to tyga lmfao. Travis scott needs to learn, you'll lose her the same way you found her — Alina (@alinathequeenx) October 3, 2019
Mackenzie McKee has made it official. No, she will not be getting back together with her husband of six years. Because, yes , she has filed for divorce from Josh, the father of her three children. The reality TV star announced the news herself on Monday, jumping on Instagram with a photo of her dogs — and telling one fan in the Comments section that her weight loss was due to “divorce stress.” As far as we know, this is the first time Mackenzie has dropped the “D” word in regard to her and Josh. When the Teen Mom star confirmed that her marriage was in trouble about two months ago, she simply said she and Josh were separating . “I would like to say, that due to stress, me needing to stay focused, the media, etc. I am deciding my marriage needs a break,” Mackenzie Tweeted on Friday, August 16, adding in this message: “My heart breaks for my kids. But as of right now, this is what’s best. Thank you.” The couple got married in August of 2013 and share three kids — Gannon, 7, Jamie, 5, and Broncs, 3. But they’ve been experiencing some difficult times for awhile, as highlighted this summer on the season premiere of Teen Mom OG. The episode focused on rumors that Josh had cheated on Mackenzie while out on the road for a rodeo. He denied this allegation, but Mackenzie later watched the development play out on air and referred to Josh as a horrible person after actually watching his actions on MTV. “Turns out, Josh is not a good man whatsoever,” the Teen Mom OG told Us Weekly in late August. “Watching the show and catching him in lies, seeing how independent he is, I realize I deserve better.” Mackenzie went on to slam Josh to this tabloid as follows: “I have fought for this marriage for many years, and lately, I’ve really opened my eyes to what a horrible person he is.” It doesn’t get much more straightforward than that — except that McKee has sort of backed off these comments in the days since. She has told fans that she and Josh actually still live together, adding: “Me and Josh do love one another, that will never change. God will guide me where I belong and I’m trusting in him right now and focusing on being there for my mom.” Are they actually getting along these days? It does sound that way. “Me and Josh are friends and are on good terms,” she said in an interview The Ashley’s Reality Roundup. “I’m still taking this time for myself. I’m doing counseling, just so an outside eye looking in can give me guidance. I just had so much piling up all at once, I just need time and structure.” The MTV personality has since confessed that she and Josh are both cheaters — so, hey, at least they have that in common! In all seriousness, though, we do wish Mackenzie and Josh the best moving forward. View Slideshow: Mackenzie McKee: I’m SOOO Done with My Husband … Probably!

Tekashi’s alleged kidnapper has issued a statement in which the man claims the entire act was staged. In an exclusive statement given to Complex , Anthony “Harv” Ellison and his legal team presented their side of what took place. This comes in the wake of testimony from Tekashi, born Daniel Hernandez, the rapper’s driver Jorge Rivera, and others who were involved or adjacent to the incident. From Complex : “Danny didn’t care if the stunt could be taken as embarrassing, he thought it was believable. He said it would even make some people feel bad for him, which was good after all the trolling he had done. It worked, even Shotti bought it.” – Anthony Ellison Complex posted the full statement from Ellison’s representative Camille Cushman, which can be viewed here . — Photo: Getty
Source: Nike / NIke While Nike and adidas continue to rule the sneaker culture with the kind of dominance you’d see in the NBA when super-teams form. Other brands have been forced to do everything they can to keep up such as signing celebrity endorsers to…stealing designs and silhouettes? According to Hypebeast , Nike is accusing Skechers of all companies of stealing their Air Max 270 and VaporMax designs, and truth be told it kinda looks like they might be on to something. In the lawsuit Nike claims that Skechers created “Skecherized versions” of its Air Max 270 and VaporMax’s specifically pointing to Skechers’ Skech-Air Atlas, Skech-Air 92, Skech-Air Stratus and Skech-Air Blast models as “infringers” of its popular silhouettes which features patented Air bag soles that helped take Nike to the next level since the 80’s.

This isn’t the first time Nike has sued Skechers after claiming the brand also bit their Free and Flyknit designs. Those lawsuits are still pending in court. Just by the eye test it looks like an open and shut case but who knows what evidence or opinions will be introduced into the case that can help or hurt Skechers’ latest designs.
Source: Home Picture Isis King / Isis King For this year’s Emmys, “When They See Us” actress Isis King found herself in a bit of a predicament. While she knew she would be attending the after-parties , she hadn’t planned on attending the actual event, until she got a call days before the awards show. “Sarah Kate Ellis, President and CEO of GLAAD asked me to attend the Emmys with her. I was excited, but I didn’t have anything to wear for it!” King told HelloBeautiful. So what was she do? First, she was out of town in Iowa for the 2019 LGBTQ Presidential Forum , her stylist was out of commission and her schedule was packed, so spending time shopping for a new dress and getting it fitted just wasn’t going to work. Looking at pictures of her gorgeous gown, she did something to look so good. What was her secret? Well, last week on social media, the transgender actress shared she did what she does best: Made it work. “People have asked about my #Emmys dress. My stylist couldn’t pull threw in time so I altered the gown on the left that I already had. Cut the top off, added straps, added pleats to create a stiff ruffle-esque foundation at knee, and added tulle. Most was hand work btw!” she captioned on Instagram. Adding, “Haven’t had time to be in a designing mood lately, but sometimes you have to pull out your skills. I would never usually alter something already made because I’m pretty cocky about my designing craft, but sometimes you have to work magic! You can take the girl from designing, but you can’t take designing from the girl. Can’t believe I’ve been a Fashion Designer for 20 years WOWWWW.” View this post on Instagram Ppl have asked about my #Emmys dress. My stylist couldn't pull threw in time so I altered the gown on the left that I already had. Cut the top off, added straps, added pleats to create a stiff ruffle-esque foundation at knee, and added tulle. Most was hand work btw! Haven't had time to be in a designing mood lately, but sometimes you have to pull out your skills.

You can take the girl from designing, but you can't take designing from the girl. Can't believe I've been a Fashion Designer for 20 years WOWWWW. Do you like it better before or after my alteration? A post shared by Isis King (@msisisking) on Sep 25, 2019 at 7:43pm PDT Just amazing! We sat down with Isis, the first trans model to compete on America’s Next Top Model , to talk about how she pulled this dress together last minute, her acting debut on Ava DuVernay’s limited series When They See Us and shining at the Emmys with her trans sisters. HelloBeautiful: Girl, your dress was stunning. How did you pull this off? Isis King: It was all last minute! I wanted to have something with sequins and pulled some fabric to make a new dress, but realized I didn’t have the time to make something from scratch. So I looked in my closet, pulled this dress out and I was like OK I can work with this. HB: Walk us through the process. IK: [Long story short], I knew the chiffon straps had to come off, so I added a strap to give me some support. Then I looked at the bottom of the dress and started folding and pleating it to picture what it would look like. And it looked really cool, couture-like, but I had to add some comfortable fabric underneath because with all the parties afterward, it didn’t want to be itchy all night. [Laughs] So I added some tulle, sewing each layer, which I did by hand. And there we go! HB: Wow! How long did it take? IK: Well, with the strap breaking the needles a few times and me working with fabrics I hadn’t worked with before, it took me maybe four hours altogether. HB: The response to your post was huge. Did you expect that? IK: I was really shocked because I have way before Top Model, I was a designer and over the years I have posted plenty of my designs and it didn’t get the same attention. But when I posted this dress, people were loving it! And I am like, this is great, but also, I can do way more than just altering! HB: Honestly, when I saw a picture of you and Niecy Nash [who played your mother in When They See Us ], I knew she was wearing Christian Siriano. So looking at you side-by-side, I thought you were wearing him as well! IK: It’s funny because when Niecy saw me she said, “Like mother, like daughter!” View this post on Instagram I would like to thank God, my mother, and……oh wait, it isn't mines?…… SO PROUD TO LIVE IN THIS MOMENT WITH MY LITTLE BRO @jharreljerome BROOOOOOOO!!!!…SO WELL DESERVED! So happy @koreykingwise and the #exonerated5 got to be here to see this moment! Best Lead Actor in a Limited Series!!!!!!!!! @whentheyseeus #whentheyseeus A post shared by Isis King (@msisisking) on Sep 22, 2019 at 11:20pm PDT HB: What an amazing night for “When They See Us,” especially Jharrel Jerome who played your brother. My heart almost stopped when Angela Bassett opened the envelope and then I saw the look of relief on her face, I just knew he had won. What was the atmosphere in the auditorium like when his name was called ? IK: It was electric! I stood up for both Jharrel and Billy Porter [who won Lead Actor In A Drama Series for Pose ]. The night before, I saw both of them at a party and told them to get their speeches ready. They both laughed, but here we are! It was so amazing to be there and see their wins in person. Also, to be on set with Jharrel, watching him and acting with him, especially our scenes together of him playing a teen and adult Korey Wise and me as Marci Wise , his trans sister, it was amazing to witness. He’s such a brilliant actor. HB: Well, you’re pretty good too Isis. You held your own in those scenes with Niecy and Jharrel. IK: Why thank you! I’ve been acting for 10 years before this and this was my big first role! I have been craving a role that was more than just being the pretty trans woman. I wanted to be a real character and have an opportunity to show what I’m capable of. I was clear [when I read the script] that I am ready for this. Once I got cast and got on set, I just wanted to make Ava proud. HB: There were scenes when you played Norman, Marci before her transition. Being a trans woman was that at all triggering? IK: You know what? No. When I was in the make-up, I was OK. I even asked Ava if I could have sideburns because I have never had that before. They even added hair to my lip and I bound my chest, (which gave me so much respect for those who do bind.) I was able to walk the streets of Harlem as Norman and no one knew who I was! I was in disguise, really acting. And for the first time, I was doing something different as an actress. I t wasn’t triggering, more like exhilarating. HB: I also saw pics of you with Pose actresses Mj Rodriquez and Indya Moore . What did it mean for you to be able to share that Emmys space with them like that? IK: Amazing. It was a great night to be with them and Dominique Jackson (Elektra from Pose ), we go way back to the ballroom scene. And Janet [Mock] , we’ve been girlfriends since 2011, and Angelica Ross , who’ve I known since 2009. So to be there, hug one another and celebrate us was very special. There was something very powerful to be trans women in our really cool garb and our sunkissed skin and to know that we BELONGED there. And I look forward to more of these moments when we can hold those statues, and have more stories [with trans leads] outside of Pose. That time is coming.

Did I miss anything? @mjrodriguez7 x @indyamoore A post shared by Isis King (@msisisking) on Sep 24, 2019 at 9:50am PDT HB: Finally, what’s next for you? IK: So much. Last month, I walked the Savage x Fenty at New York Fashion Week, which was a dream come true. Rihanna told me my walk was fine and I literally froze up. [Laughs]. I am also going to be doing some more ads for Gabrielle Union’s “I’m Perfect” New York & Company Collection too. That, and auditioning for roles, taking those meetings and working on some influencer projects. Sometimes it feels like I’m playing catch up. it’s been 11 years since Top Model and I see that now they do want to hear my voice. So the takeover continues. It’s slow, but I am planting my seeds and being positive about my journey. It’s not a sprint, it’s a marathon. This interview had been edited for length and clarity.

Source: Prince Williams / Getty B.o.B a name we haven’t heard around these parts at least musically was the latest victim on an internet hoax, and he was not too pleased about it. The “Beautiful Girls” crafter went on an expletive-laced rant on Instagram after he “died” in an internet death hoax. The rapper, born Bobby Ray Simmons called out anyone who showed some concern and was upset by his “passing.” The rumor of his death began over the weekend when a “R.I.P B.o.B.” Facebook page came out of nowhere. The hoax page garnered plenty of attention quickly receiving nearly one million likes. The page falsely stated: “At about 11 a.m. ET on Sunday (September 29, 2019), our beloved rapper B.o.B passed away,” the post read. “B.o.B was born on November 15, 1988, in Winston-Salem. He will be missed but not forgotten. Please show your sympathy and condolences by commenting on and liking this page.” Reps for the flat-earther reportedly quickly put out a statement denying the rumors of his death. “He joins the long list of celebrities who have been victimized by this hoax,” the statement read. “He’s still alive and well, stop believing what you see on the internet.” B.o.B took thinks a bit further. “You fuckin’ niggas, I fuckin’ hate you fuckin’ niggas!” he begins. “You niggas ain’t support me worth a shit while I was fuckin’ livin. And now that I’m fuckin’ dead, you wanna talk about, ‘Oh, I love B.o.B. I love his music. I love all his shit?’ Fuck you! Fuck you, you fuckin’ bitch! You ain’t support shit! And you don’t give a fuck about me, and you don’t fuckin’ know me. “Muthafucka. Suck my fuckin’ dick you fuckin’ bitch. You don’t care about none of this shit I fuckin’ said, none of the shit I fuckin’ did and put my fuckin’ neck on the line for you ungrateful ass fuckin’ coons. Ungrateful coons! You don’t give a fuck about nothing. Fuck you! Don’t act like I was your friend.” We definitely understand being upset about killed even though you’re still alive, but why lash out at those who genuinely cared that you “died.” You can watch B.o.B lose his sh*t below.

A 46-year-old Italian tennis umpire has been “suspended” for making highly inappropriate sexual comments toward a 16-year-old girl during a match according to a CNN report. Gianluca Moscarella can be seen harassing the teen girl last week at a match between Pedro Sousa and Enrico Dalla Valle in Florence. “You are fantastic,” he could be overheard saying, according to a video circulating online. “Very sexy.” After the next set, he continues: “Are you OK? It’s hot. Are you feeling hot? Physically or emotionally? Both? You can’t handle it anymore.” Don’t take our word for it, if you speak Italian you can watch the video below and see it for yourself. R. Kelly’s come in all cultures and creeds. The Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) said Moscarella was “immediately dismissed from the tournament when the matter was brought to light, and a full investigation has been initiated.” Under. The. Jail.
