The Flockas On Headline Heat Tammy Rivera and Waka Flocka Flame have had lots of ups and downs in their relationship over the years but the superstar couple has still managed to put their love and friendship first. Waka and Tammy stopped to respond to some of the wildest headlines BOSSIP has written about them and their marriage — and of course, the “Marriage Boot Camp” stars kept it all the way 100. The couple also gushed on their recent vow renewal ceremony in Mexico which we’ll all get to see when “Waka & Tammy Tie the Knot” airs Thursday, March 28 at 8pm ET/PT on WE tv. Check out the video above.
Source: Nuccio DiNuzzo / Getty Jussie’s Innocence Makes MAGAs Mad As you’ve probably heard, the charges against Jussie Smollett have been officially dropped by the city of Chicago. The details of the case have been sealed as part of the agreement, too. This has infuriated people who feel like Jussie lied and is benefitting from some sort of celebrity privilege. Look, whether you believe Jussie actually lied or not, you have to admit that these folks’ being so upset over his charges being dropped it is quite the comedic twist. Look at how they suddenly have so much doubt over the criminal justice system. To paraphrase one Michael Scott: “look at how the turn tables.” If Jussie Smollett was white and fabricated a hate crime against fake black people in Chicago he would be in prison. This is black privilege in Chicago. — Carmine Sabia (@CarmineSabia) March 26, 2019

When I decided to take on this challenge I didn’t know much about this sport at all but what I did know is that it would take pure dedication and hard work. These past 12 weeks of prep were not easy at all and could not have done it without my support system. First I want to thank my husband @philgood50 for believing in me the min I told him I wanted to compete and to show just how much he believed in me, he did every single workout with me in the gym 6 days a week and stuck to my diet plan. His support is unmatched and I’m thankful he enables me to shine bright in any and everything I choose to do. To the absolute best trainers ever, @workoutkingspro thank you for pushing me through those rough days and and never allowing me to give anything less than 100%. @mignoncyrelle I want to thank you for lighting a fire in me to go after something I thought I could never do and introducing me to the , my coach @ryanhinton . Thanks coach for taking on a “newby” (don’t call me that ever again ). When this guy says “Trust the process”… just do it and shut up! And to my posing coach @jazzyfresh.ifbbpro thanks for working the awkwardness out of me lol! Shout out to my bff @charliemonroeg for the food prep and for keeping my life together in so many ways.

Comedian Gary Owen has a bone to pick with Delta airlines after his wife, who was flying first class, was questioned about her ticket. Gary explains that hos lady was waiting with a handful of passengers to border the plane when she was approached by an embicilic Delta employee who asked to confirm her seat. His wife confirmed she was flying in first, then noticed he didn’t ask anyone else… Next, Gary’s wife asked the Delta member if he was going to question anyone else in first class and he said “no.” Really??? Gary sends a message to Delta and that moron in this IG vid. Hit play. View this post on Instagram Hey @delta this morning my wife & daughter flew from Cincinnati to San Francisco on the 7:20am direct flight gate B21. Your gate agent asked my wife as she was standing in the priority line if she was in first class. She said yes. My wife is a black woman. So she asks your agent are you not going to ask the man behind me if he is in first? Your agent said NO. My wife asked why? Your agent said “because I don’t want to.” Your ticket agent was a white man the man standing behind my wife was a white man. I have well over 2 million miles on Delta. I know you have a lot of amazing employees that treat ppl with respect & dignity. But what happened this morning was not ok. A post shared by Gary Owen (@garyowencomedy) on Mar 24, 2019 at 2:32pm PDT

The sassy sisters seem to be in a space of healing, BUT their emotional level-up is not without its DRAMA. In a first look, Tamar is all up under her new flame but hasn’t quite divorced Vince yet . Toni and fiancé Birdman are going through their ups and downs, with the singer’s family trying to figure out if they’ve called off their engagement . Birdman cluelessly tells the Braxton sisters “I’m not dating the whole family” and obviously, that didn’t go over well. Toni and Tamar also sit down to chat—about a month after their viral family therapy session with Iyanla Vanzant —and Tamar talks touring with Snoop. Tamar also reveals she hasn’t spoken to, or seen, any of the family since the Iyanla session. Elsewhere, mom Evelyn Braxton talks not appreciating Iyanla’s criticisms . “I don’t wanna hear criticism,” she said during a confessional. “I don’t wanna hear it. We can talk, but every time you open your mouth there’s something negative about me? Are you CRAZY?” Tune into a sneak peek below, which also includes a look at Traci and Trina appearing on Sister Circle Live together. Braxton Family Values returns Thursday, April 4 at 9 p.m. ET on WE TV.

Source: Juanmonino / Getty Dyma Loving Arrest Goes Viral Another day, another act of police aggression. A Florida police officer was suspended for his actions during the arrest of 26-year-old Dyma Loving. Loving and her friend called the police to report that a neighbor pointed a shotgun at them after an exchange. The Miami Herald reports that Officer Alejandro Giraldo claimed that Loving threated him before he and two other officers aggressively arrested her, but body cam footage showed that Loving never threatened him, spoke clearly and became agitated only after repeated questioning and threats from Officer Giraldo. Prior to the body cam footage being released, cell phone video taken by Loving’s friend showed three officers roughly taking her down against a chain-link fence. “I just said I wanted to call my kid… What do you not understand? I had a gun pointed in front of me… I need to go call my children. I don’t understand,” said Loving in the video as she’s escorted away in a squad car. Loving and her friend Adrianna Green, 22, said they called police on March 5 after a man named Frank Tumm pointed a shotgun at them during an exchange where he called them “hookers” and one responded by calling him a “fa***t.” Tumm was initially not arrested and told police he didn’t own a weapon. The Herald adds that police revisited Frank Tumm’s home late Thursday night and took him into custody without incident. He was charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and booked into the Turner Guilford Knight correctional center. His bond was set at $5,000. Loving has since said she’ll think twice about calling cops for help in the future. “I feel distraught and overwhelmed,” she told The Daily Beast on Wednesday. “Now, I don’t think I will ever call the police again.” SMH, we’re sending best wishes to this brutalized black woman.
