Source: Jeff Kravitz/FilmMagic / Getty Insta-Girl Accuses Travis Scott Of Cheating With Her Has Kylie Jenner fallen to the same f*ckboy fate as her older sister Khloe ? If you believe the reports of a social media random…it may appear that way. Right in the midst of Travis celebrating his number one album, an Instagram user by the name of Ja`Lyn Me`shell, @melaninnbarbiee, is claiming — indirectly — that Travis Scott is taking her to Astroworld when Kylie Jenner’s head is turned. The young woman posted a photo to IG, showing Travis leaning over seemingly whispering in an unseen young lady’s ear. Nobody likes me, but yo baby daddy keeps me icy The thing is…the photo appears to be covered with an old TMZ watermark — possibly from a photoshoot or video set — but has no attachment to any story regarding Travis and another woman. We can’t even seem to find the photo on TMZ’s site, despite the fact that it’s clearly from within the last two months with Travis’ blonde-tipped hair as an indicator. Either way, Travis was QUICK to shut this one down, taking to his Insta Story to post the following: Trolls always wanna create some fake sh*t to destroy real love. GOING OVER BOARD TO MAKE SH*T LOOK LIKE IS NOT IS EVIL. I hate acknowledging sh*t. But quit try to take joy from sh*t that’s good. I pray god blocks out all evil. BACK TO CELEBRATING !!!! Meanwhile, Kylie has said…nothing regarding the manner at all. And as for the Melanin Barbiee in question… If we had to bet, we’re guessing that probably isn’t even her in the photo. But, stranger things have happened in the Kardashian-Jenner family… Jeff Kravitz/FilmMagic

Frankly: Michelle Obama Pushes Back On “Lean In” Movement, “That S#!t Doesn’t Work”

Posted on December 3, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Source: Jack Taylor / Getty Michelle Obama Pushes Back Against “Lean In” Michelle Obama let her guard drop to the floor Saturday night at the Barclays Center while speaking on the New York stop of her Becoming book tour. According to the Vanity Fair account of the event, the (forever) First Lady didn’t come to Brooklyn to offer up pie-in-the-sky platitudes or rose-tinted rhetoric to women who were looking to navigate the balance between personal and professional paths. She came armed with a bucket of the coldest water that ever ran down your back… Marriage still ain’t equal, y’all,” Michelle Obama told the capacity crowd at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center on Saturday night. “It ain’t equal. I tell women that whole ‘you can have it all’—mmm, nope, not at the same time, that’s a lie. It’s not always enough to lean in because that s**t doesn’t work.” The crowd burst into laughter. “I thought we were at home, y’all. I was gettin’ real comfortable up in here. Alright, I’m back now. Sometimes that stuff doesn’t work.” Curse words aside, Chelly O wasn’t done being blunt and unfiltered about her family and her marriage. “People are like, “Oh, why’d she talk about marriage counseling?” I’m like, ‘Duh.”Marriage is hard, you know. It is hard . . . I love my husband, and we have a great marriage, and we’ve had a great marriage, but marriage is hard work.” She added that she’s seen too many couples rush into marriage. “Marriage is a lot of work, and it should be. It’s too independent individuals who are trying to come together to build a life forever.” She said, too, that despite the great efforts the Obamas undertook to have children, “kids are an interrupter; they mess it all up. Barack and I say that’s why they make ’em cute, ’cause if they weren’t cute, you’d just leave ’em in a basket.” Michelle Obama is an intelligent and beautiful woman who clearly isn’t here for the games. We Stan.

Springing Into Action: Nelly Allegedly Comes To The Rescue During A Dust-Up On A Dubai Yacht

Posted on December 2, 2018 by admin2| Leave a comment

Source: Tim Mosenfelder / Getty Nelly Broke Up A Fight During A Dubai Yacht Party There was reportedly an incident in the desert last week when a fight broke out on a yacht full of rappers while they were sailing near Dubai–it was the result of a number of party go-ers eventually being questioned by the police about the situation. According to an exclusive report from Page Six , a brawl is said to have broken out on a party yacht. Guests in attendance at this shindig included rappers Future and Akon, with one unfortunate guest getting a bottle thrown right in their face. A “spy” told Page Six that Nelly  is the one who ended up springing into action once the violence started. “When Nelly heard the commotion, he went running in to help the person who was hit in the nose,” their source told the publication. The “Country Grammar” star along with others were said to be questioned by local police about the fight, but Nelly was in the clear following his heroism in the situation. The region was filled with so many big stars because of the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix on November 25. Post Malone, The Weeknd, French Montana, Tyga, Craig David, Guns N’ Roses and Sam Smith all performed concerts in the days surrounding the race, which ended up being won by Lewis Hamilton. The Weeknd’s show actually ended up being cut short when rowdy fans stormed the gates at a local arena. “The show had to stop early because it was so dangerous,” a source for Page Six recalled. It’s lucky for everyone involved that none of the stars in attendance got arrested following the alleged fight. Back in 2015, Future’s DJ, Esco, was arrested during the Grand Prix after being caught with marijuana at the airport. He ended up spending a whopping 56 days in jail in a harrowing experience that inspired Future’s album 56 Nights . “When they arrest you, they don’t have to say, ‘You have a right to this’ . . . There’s no judge, no jury. They assign you to a prosecutor, and the prosecutor can just do what he wants with you. They don’t have to tell you anything. They don’t even have to explain what the charge is.” At the airport after he was freed, he said, he bought headphones, ice cream and cookies, “and I was like, ‘I can’t believe this. Like, what just happened?’” Good on Nelly for breaking up a brawl that could have gone downhill quickly.

‘Your Race Will Be Wiped Out’ Deplorable Dust Mite Berates Arizona Woman In Restaurant

Posted on December 2, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Source: Tetra Images / Getty Racist Woman Caught On Camera In Arizona An Arizona woman’s deplorable actions are going viral. A Puerto Rican woman named Lennys Bermudez Molina says she was trying to find a seat at a Phoenix restaurant last week when she was berated and told her race would be “wiped out.” “I hate to say the political climate is to blame for someone’s outrageous behavior, but I was visibly shaken today with this exchange. I simply asked the woman if I could sit down next to her while I waited for the car to charge,” Molina captioned a Facebook video of the incident. The video shows the spoiled mayo rudely telling Molina she wished the “whole freaking nation” was white. “You will be wiped out … trust me,” added the woman. SMH, the boldness of this beyotch is crazy. Are you even surprised to see yet another racist video ???

What’s Free: Jay-Z Jukes Janky Lawsuit Arguing That Lack Of Black Arbitrators Could Create Bias Against Him

Posted on December 1, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Source: Kevin Mazur / Getty Jay-Z Wins Court Battle Over Lack Of Black Arbitrators In Legal System Jay-Z is currently riding a wave of public adulation after the release of Meek Mill’s new album Championships on which the soon-to-be 49-year-old (his birth is in three days on December 4) spit some of his most poignant lyrics ever in a prolific list of on-the-nose verses over the years. One with a penchant for puns might call Jay’s verse — a victory. We say that to say, that the win that Shawn Corey Carter got in rap is nothing compared to the “historic” win that he got in court this week. According to Rolling Stone , on Wednesday Jay-Z won a battle in court that is seemingly unheard of. He argued that a lack of African-American arbitrators left him potentially exposed to unconscious racial bias. Jay is being sued by Iconix, the company that he sold is clothing brand Rocawear to back in 2007 and in that agreement, there must have been a clause about future clothing brands. Iconix argues that Roc Nations paper plane hats violate those terms. Jay countersued Iconix arguing that clause applied to Rocawear, not Roc Nation. Arbitration ensues. All parties involved are to eliminate names from a list of 12 in order to choose one. Problem is, when looking at the list Jay couldn’t readily identify a single African-American name. When he brought his concern to the American Arbitration Association who chose the original list of 12, they went through a list of 200 eligible arbitrators and guess how many African-Americans they found… Three, and one of those three had a conflict of interest and was thus rendered ineligible. Here’s what Jay’s lawyer, Alex Spiro, argued to the court: “…deprives litigants of color of a meaningful opportunity to have their claims heard by a panel of arbitrators reflecting their backgrounds and life experience,” putting Jay-Z at risk of unconscious bias by white arbitrators toward black defendants. If unresolved, the issue would “deprive black litigants like Mr. Carter and his companies of the equal protection of the laws,” he said.” Apparently, this is a thing that doesn’t happen very often where the legal system is forced to look at the disparities in the process it claims to uphold. We love this song.
