I knew a lot of people were looking at me. You know, you never know how someone is going to react, of course. She could always say no, and that’s the first time that I’ve been on the carpet pitching somebody! So, a little nerve-racking, of course.” The entrepreneur adds that his love “choked up” a little bit, “but she said yes pretty quickly!” “My daughter was sitting in her lap, so I was looking at my beautiful daughter at the same time,” he adds of the big moment, which was caught on tape for them to revisit. He also tells Us that he explained to Heather in his speech that God had given him everything he needs and that he is “rich with love.” As for his favorite thing about his new fiancée? “Her calm demeanor,” he gushes to Us.

Whoopi Goldberg Is Officially Exiting “The View” After 10 Years

Whoopi Confirms She’s Leaving ‘The View’ After all the rumors and speculation , it looks like it really is a wrap for Whoopi Goldberg on The View . The show moderator confirmed to Wendy Williams that she’s over it at this point…and while she thinks the show is great, it’s time for her to move on and achieve some of her other goals. (Whoopi talks about the show at the 1:17 mark) “Because I have to go and grow,” Whoopi told the audience and Wendy. “I’ve got stuff to do! I’ve got movies I need to direct, I’ve got books I gotta need to finish. This was great and I love doing it. It’s been a while. They’re in their 20th season. They’ve been here for a while. They did this without me. I’ve been here for half of it but not all of it.” We wonder which way the show will head without Whoopi there to help reign Raven in. Will you be watching??? ABC/WENN

SMH: Lawyer Demands Eric Garner’s Children Take DNA Tests Before Dividing $7 Million Settlement

Lawyer Demands Eric Garner’s Children Take DNA Tests Before Settlement The lawyer for Eric Garner’s illegitimate child has demanded that the kids of Garner undergo DNA tests to prove that they are his before dividing the $7 million settlement reports The Grio : Lorraine Coyle, who represents 2-year-old Legacy Miller, made the shocking demand on Wednesday. During a hearing behind closed doors at the Staten Island Surrogate Court, Coyle demanded the tests because Garner’s name does not appear on the birth certificates for the other children. Jonathan Moore, the Garner family’s lawyer, seemed shocked by what he called an “offensive” demand. “Why do that when there’s no reason to do that?” Moore asked the New York Daily News. “Everyone knows they are his children.” “I don’t think she (Coyle) would have said this if the Garner family had a different complexion,” Moore said. Coyle has argued that she is only doing her “due diligence” because she does not believe Esaw Garner’s reasoning for leaving her husband’s name off the birth certificates. Esaw Garner said that she had kicked Eric Garner out of the hospital because he was “getting on my nerves” when she was going into labor and added that as for the birth certificates, “It didn’t make any difference to him, he knew they were his kids.”

R.I.P.: Justin Carr, Charlotte Demonstrator Shot In Head During Protest Chaos, Dies In Hospital

Charlotte Protester Justin Carr Dies From Gunshot Wound The protester that was shot in the head during last night’s Charlotte protest has died in the hospital. 26-year-old Justin Carr passed away late Thursday evening, after being shot by an unknown assailant. Many witnesses on the ground claim that Carr was gunned down by a Charlotte PD officer during a police ambush on the peaceful protest…a claim which the city still denies. Via MailOnline : The demonstrator who was shot in the head during Wednesday night’s riots in Charlotte has died. Justin Carr, 26, died on Thursday after being critically wounded during the unrest over the shooting of Keith Lamont Scott by a police officer. Carr was shot as protesters clashed with police in riot gear lined arm-in-arm protecting the Omni Hotel at about 8.30pm. City officials say Carr was not shot by an officer, but some protesters have claimed that he was wounded by a cop. No arrests have been made in Carr’s death, but a homicide investigation has been launched. Police Chief Kerr Putney says the detectives are determined to find who fired the fatal shots. Among those who question the city’s account of Carr’s shooting is the Charlotte Clergy Coalition for Justice. Several coalition members were just 10 feet from the victim when he was shot, according to the Charlotte Observer. ‘I saw the man go down on the pavement,’ Minister Steve Knight of Mission gathering Christian Church in Charlotte said. ‘It was an ambush. The victim was shot while he stood between two ministers, and we believe he was shot by police.’ SMH. We pray that everyone in the city of Charlotte can stay safe as protests roll into their third night tonight. Rest in peace, Justin. We hope that the TRUTH behind his death can be discovered and made public very soon… Twitter/Facebook

Did Safaree Just Confirm The Game’s Claim That Meek Mill Ratted Out His Cheating To Nicki Minaj?

Safaree Responds To The Game’s Meek Mill Diss By now you already know The Game and Meek Mill are beefing over some confusion around snitching and Sean Kingston’s snatched chains . But up to this point it’s mainly been meme banter, fun with photoshop, and Twitter shots. The Game finally took the battle off Instagram and onto a track — the same “Ooouuu” track Meek first dissed Game with — called “Pest Control.” Get it? Because Meek is a “rat?” Anyway, take a listen: Out of the multiple shots Game rook at meek…one in particular stood out among he rest — his claim that Meek Mill wiggled into Nicki’s heart by exposing Safarree’s infidelity the D’Angelo Russell way …. “Now tell the world how you got yo b*tch/ You Facetimed Nicki While Safaree was f**kin a chick.” Now, that could have just been made up for dramatic effect. But The Game brought his receipts. He made sure to highlight that line in particular on his account today, with a throwback pic pointing out that Safaree and Meek were definitely chummy at some point… And to drive the point home…Safaree responded with what basically reads as CONFIRMATION that this is precisely how it went down: INTERESTING. Well it looks like his snitch plan worked, because Nicki loves her some Meek an clearly doesn’t care what anyone has to say about it. But we’re still curious…under what circumstance was Meek was close enough to Safaree getting it in with a chick to be able to show it to Nicki on FT? To make matters EVEN worse…check out how Game tagged the pic: Just petty. WELP the Ball is back in Meeky’s court… Instagram
