Although I’m blessed to have the resources to fight this unjust situation, I understand that many people of color across the country don’t have that luxury and I plan to use my platform to shine a light on those issues. In the meantime, I plan to work closely with my legal team to overturn this unwarranted conviction and look forward to reuniting with my family and resuming my music career.” The Philadelphia 76ers owner Michael Rubin went to pick up Meek personally Wonder if we’ll see him at the game tonight?

Wakanda Business: Marvel Definitely Wants Ryan Coogler To Direct The Black Panther Sequel

Image via Jesse Grant/Getty Images for Disney Marvel Wants Ryan Coogler For Black Panther 2 Yadadamean?!? The folks at Marvel Studios know where their bread is buttered, and who’s doin’ the buttering. Black Panther is the superhero silo’s biggest domestic moneymaker of all time ($681 million) and only $70 million from being number two overall after the OG Avengers. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. According to Collider , the studio’s president, Kevin Feige, stopped just short of making a 100% guarantee that Ryan Coogler will be the HNIC (he didn’t use that term, but still) on Black Panther part two. When will that be? Well… “We definitely want Ryan to come back and that’s actively being worked out right now. When will it be? A lot of it will be when Ryan wants to and not rushing anything, but I think we have an idea of when it will be. But, again, [we’re] not going to announce any post-Avengers 4 movies until hopefully after Avengers 4, which is another reason we’re not going to Comic-Con.” Feige also had this to say about Black Panther’s enormous success and how it affected the future of the MCU: “The success of Panther is so amazing and makes us happy for so many reasons, and it certainly exceeded our lofty expectations. But our expectations were always lofty, so we had built a plan, not the least of which was centering so much of Infinity War in those locations and with some of those characters, that [its success] just says, ‘Let’s stick to this plan.’ It would have bee much more disruptive if it had not worked. Then we would have had to change a lot of what we were thinking about, but it really just solidifies and excites us to continue to move forward in the directions we’re heading in.” Wakanda forever!

Fouie Luitton Don: Tiffany Haddish Explains Why She Will Happily Rock A Knockoff Handbag

Getty Images Tiffany Haddish Talks Being Content Wearing Knockoff Bags Tiffany Haddish has never been shy about sharing stories of her celeb run-ins , and her latest fable is no different. Tiffany recently told the story of how Jada Pinkett Smith called her out on her faux designer handbag. Many people would have found this encounter embarrassing, however, as Haddish shared with W Magazine in a recent interview, clothes, bags, and shoes are nowhere near as important to her as life’s essentials, since she’s had to do without at many points in her life: “When I was shooting Girls Trip, I had a knockoff Michael Kors bag that said MLK instead of MK. Jada told me that I shouldn’t have knockoff stuff. I told her that my philosophy is, Whatever the bag costs, I should be able to keep that amount of cash in the bag. If it’s a $300 purse, I have to put $300 in cash in that purse. I do not want a bag that is more expensive than the cash I have to put in it. Things are going good for me now, so I am graduating to your Fendis and your Guccis. But I better have the cash equivalent, or I’m not buying the purse. And if things start to go wrong, I’m going right back to my knockoffs. When you’re somebody like me, who’s been homeless, clothes are not that important. Clothes are not a roof over my head, food in my ­stomach, my family’s health—that’s what money is for. But fashion helps get more money. So, we ride.” Bags definitely don’t keep the lights on or pay medical bills, so we 100% feel her on that. What do you think of Tiffany’s philosophy on not rocking what you can’t afford for real?
