Cardi F Minus: Gentrif-Iggy Azalea Getting Clowned For A Gluten Free Version Of “Money” That Literally Zero Human Beings Asked For Or Want

Source: Alberto E. Rodriguez / Getty Is Iggy Azalea’s Video A Cardi Knockoff? Iggy Azalea is back, y’all! Miss Milk Of Rapnesia is re-entering the rap fray to remind the game not to forget her in the midst of the women in rap resurgence we’re seeing in 2019. Her new single “Sally Walker” is heating up Youtube and is poised to be a big hit but there’s a big problem…internet fans think it sounds strikingly similar to Cardi B’s “Money” single from 2018. Azalea’s song has the same producer and co-writer and the songs are nearly identical. But that’s not it, the video features Iggy again surrounded by black people. This time at a funeral. It’s another example of Iggy black-facing it up without the actual makeup. Twitter is damn near beside itself over all of this and wondering why, in the age of Megan Thee Stallions and prominent, talented black MCs is Iggy Azalea thinking she can find space to insert her cultural appropriation. Black people: *Spice up our funerals so our dead can meet the ancestors in joy* Iggy Azalea: pic.twitter.com/QMX3zkeUG8 — Andray (@andraydomise) March 17, 2019 The flaming going on in the Twitter world is epic…take a look…

Dirty Dog AND Deadbeat Dad?!?! Khloé Kardashian Seeking Sole Kustody After “Infant Allergic” Tristan Thompson Abandons All Daddy Duties

Posted on March 17, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Source: SPW / Splash News Khloé Kardashian Disappointed Tristan Hasn’t Spent Time With Daughter Remember when Jordy Craig was complaining about Tristan Thompson never spending time with his son Prince? Well now it seems that 11-month-old True is getting similar treatment and Khloé Kardashian has been left deeply disappointed over his behavior. According to PEOPLE reports , Tristan celebrated his 34th birthday Wednesday but spent zero time with his daughter on his special day: “Just in general, he isn’t spending much time with his daughter. It’s very upsetting to Khloé. To her, True is the most important person ever. It’s very difficult for her to understand how Tristan isn’t willing to make more of an effort to spend time with True,” says the source. “It saddens her that True doesn’t have a very close relationship with Tristan. Khloé has always done everything she can to encourage Tristan to spend time with his daughter,” the source adds. “She just doesn’t understand it. It’s very disappointing to her.” But Thompson’s behavior could have dire consequences. Hollywood Life reports that Khloé is working to gain sole custody of her daughter with the basketball star: “Khloe worries about her daughter’s future and is prepared to fight to maintain custody of her only child,” a source close to the Kardashian family EXCLUSIVELY told HollywoodLife. “Khloe is in close contact with her family attorney to insure that she will never lose custody of True to Tristan, should he decide to take her to court. While Khloe is financially secure, she has also discussed child support with her attorney, she is making sure all her bases are covered and that everything dealing with True and Tristan is fair and equitable.” Although Khloe still wants Tristan to father True through regular visits, she feels sole custody would ensure she’s always the primary person in True’s everyday life, which she already thoroughly enjoys. “The best part of Khloe’s day is singing her daughter to sleep every night and she would be heartbroken if that was ever taken away from her,” the source continued. “So Khloe is working closely with her attorneys to make sure that Tristan has fair visitation rights but that sole custody remains firmly with her.” Do you think Tristan will even care? Hit the flip for adorable shots of True

No Take Backs: Louisiana Is Attempting To Recoup Nearly $26 Million In Accidentally Overpaid Tax Returns

Posted on March 17, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Source: Vichai Phububphapan / EyeEm / Getty Louisiana Accidentally Overpaid $26 Million In Tax Returns; Now They Want It Back According to ABC News , the state of Louisiana recently announced that a computer error earlier this week accidentally gave some people double the refund they expected. Louisiana officials have already begun the process of recouping the $26 million in duplicate refunds. Most of the accidental refunds will be recovered electronically, with banks withdrawing the direct deposits directly from the bank accounts. “There is no need for the taxpayers to take any action as the department works to recover the overpayment of funds directly from their bank accounts,” Commissioner of Administration Jay Dardenne said in a statement Friday. “With the cooperation of several financial institutions, the process is working.” According to the state, refunds that were processed correctly in early March were accidentally redeposited the following day. The mistake reportedly affected both direct deposit refunds and debit card refunds. SMFH.

So Sad: Government Withholds 84-Year-Old Woman’s Social Security Over Claims She Owes $220K For College She Never Attended

Posted on March 16, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Source: ATU Images / Getty Government Withholds 84-Year-Old Woman’s Social Security 84-year-old Mamie Walker depends on her monthly social security check of $1,498 to survive. But for the past two months, the government has sent Mamie nothing but a letter claiming she owes them $224,414.50 in unpaid college debt–but Mamie never even attended college! A letter from the Treasury Department claims she has been referred to them for “collection action.” The letter explains up to 15 percent of each of her checks will be withheld to pay the debt, which was shocking enough, but absolutely no check came at all in February or March. Walker then received another letter stating that she won’t receive another check until September of 2031. “I’ll probably be dead by then,” the 84-year-old said. “I’m so scared. I don’t sleep at night because I’m so scared next week … my lights are going to be off.” Mamie explains that beside not ever going to college, she never learned to read or write at all because she had to go to work as a child to help support her family as a “field hand.” Her son, Morrison Walker, stepped in to help his mother and says she hasn’t been able to pay rent or utilities and is at risk for losing her home.  “I work and I try my best to help her with her bills, but now this done happened and I have my own bills, and she don’t have no income and now they’re trying to put eviction on her house, her water bill skyrocketed, her lights are going to get cut off,” Morrison said. He says that he has tried calling social security about the incident multiple times and listened to “hold music” for hours, only to have no one pick up. He went to a local Social Security office and was told by an employee that it sounds like fraud, but no one offered them any help. Now that her story is out for the world to hear, hopefully Mamie Walker will finally get the help she deserves from her social security checks once again

YBN Almighty Jay’s Attackers Have Been Karma Handcuffed By The Feds For Attempted Murder Of NYPD Cop

Posted on March 14, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Source: Scott Dudelson / Getty YBN Almighty Jay’s Attackers Arrested For Another Crime The gentlemen who relieved YBN Almighty Jay of his luxury goods, cash, wallet, and dignity have been arrested, but not for attacking the young rapper. According to TMZ , the feds arrested a street gang called the “Jack Boyz” which is comprised of Zae Numbafive and three other men. The crew was popped in the Bronx on Wednesday and were charged with attempted murder in the aid of racketeering in addition to firearm charges in connection with the shooting of an off-duty NYPD officer. Yeah. Dat way. If convicted of the crime each man is facing life in prison. Feds asked the men about the attack on Jay and two of them allegedly admitted to being on the scene but claim they didn’t touch the rapper. Sources say that Jay will cooperate with investigators but likely won’t be any help because he doesn’t think he can identify anyone as he was basically running for his life and injured. We’ll bring you guys more as soon as we know more.
