The Very Best Of The #TyreseChallenge

If you follow Tyrese Gibson on social media, you know that he does the absolute most and rarely says much of anything. He’s team extra and team too much all at the same time. And in honor of that comedian Deon Cole, known most recently for his role as Charlie on “black-ish”, decided to create a challenge to poke fun at Tyrese on social media. Check out the best videos from the #TyreseChallenge. [ madamenoire ] Jamie Foxx’s Dating Advice To His Daughters? “Don’t Take No Back Seat To Nobody” It’s pretty common these days for people to say that when it comes to relationships, modern-day women don’t “let a man be a man.” They like to say that independent women are shooting themselves in the foot in terms of their dating prospects with high standards, and that letting a man lead in a relationship, especially in a marriage, is the best thing for both parties. But as a father of two daughters who are vastly different ages (Corinne was born in 1994, Annalise in 2009), Jamie Foxx doesn’t want either one of his children to dim their light to let a man shine. [ madamenoire ] Scott Storch Files For Annulment, Says He Was Drunk Scott Storch is supposed to be on the comeback trail, but he’s been experiencing some hiccups. The enigmatic producer recently filed for an annulment, citing that he was too drunk for it to count. Oh yeah, he got married back in 2011. Reports TMZ: The famed producer just filed the docs, attempting to get out of marriage … which went down in 2011. Scott says he and Christina Gray said, “I do” on June 7, 2011 — but separated the next day. He says they haven’t been together since then. In the docs, Scott admits he and Christina were hammered when they tied the knot, and were “not of sound mind.” It is weird he’s just now getting around to filing annulment docs … 5 and half years later.

[ madamenoire ] From Marvin & Tammy To Big Sean & Jhene Aiko: 9 Modern Day Musical Duos There’s something to be said about the collaboration of two talented artists. And while many of the following dynamic duos might not achieve, legendary iconic status for their work together, they certainly had their moment or two. And for that, we have to give props. When I first heard that Big Sean and Jhene Aiko were coming together to work on an album, I was hesitant, to say the least. But after listening, I actually ended up buying a few of their songs. Something about the sound of their voices together just works. And they’re pretty adorable as a couple as well.

11 Stars Twitter Wants To Protect From 2016

This has been a pretty rough year in terms of losing our icons, and losing them at ages that are far from what one would consider “old.” After losing George Michael, Ricky Harris and Carrie Fisher in a span of days at the tail end of the year, Twitter users are more than disappointed — they are pretty frightened. People started saying that precautions need to be taken to look out for the icons we have left, whose work we’ve grown up with and followed. Here is a list of stars Twitter users said we need to keep a 24/7 eye on as this disappointing year comes to a close. [ madamenoire ] LaTavia Roberson: I Was Dismissed From Destiny’s Child “And It Wasn’t Pretty” It’s been 19 years since four teen girls from Houston, Texas, came together to form Destiny’s Child, and 16 years since original members LeToya Luckett and LaTavia Roberson were replaced by Michelle Williams, and, briefly, Farrah Franklin, but the pain lives on for Roberson. The 35-year-old has spoken about the hurt of being kicked out of one of the highest-selling girl groups of all time on more than one occasion, but this time Roberson is putting all of her thoughts all in one place: A memoir to be released in the spring of 2017.

Of course, we laughed. Kodak Black‘s attention whore radar went off the meters Tuesday when he decided to take a shower on Instagram Live. Apparently, the attention got so overwhelming that he dropped his phone by mistake, we think. The phone conveniently dropped screen-side up, giving his followers a floor up view of Black’s “Lil Kodak.” If you’re into that kind of thing, you can look for yourself here. The people who got assaulted by the image responded immediately while the rest of us were blindsided by the screenshot on our timelines.

Fantasia And Kendall Taylor Get Married — Again

In July 2015, singer Fantasia Barrino tied the knot to Kendall Taylor in North Carolina. After having her love life play out in a tumultuous way in public, to say that Barrino was happy to have found her Mr. Right would be an understatement. As she put it, she was “on cloud 9” on that special day. She had this to say about finding her perfect match last year: “How Happy I am.. This Man.. God made him just for Me and me Just For Him,” she wrote. “This Man.. Covers and prays for me and my children EVERY morning.. This Man.. Loves My Father in Heaven and his name is God.. This Man allows me to just be a woman.. No more Hurt because King Kendall will never let that happen.. I’m off to just kiss, Hug and play in some water with This Man..” [ madamenoire ] Christmas At Disney Isn’t Just For Kids When I was invited to Orlando to “unwrap the magic” of Walt Disney World at Christmas time I didn’t know what to expect.

I didn’t want to test my luck again. But as soon as I stepped foot in the Magic Kingdom it was like I was a kid again. Everywhere I looked there were Christmas lights, trees, ornaments, and families of people who were indeed having the happiest time of their lives. Within minutes I was in line buying a pair of Minnie Mouse ears, which I proudly wore all weekend.

He is heard yelling “thanks” and many thought it was followed by “Kyrie.” After that people assumed that he was taking a dig at his former teammate Kevin Durant who now plays for the Warriors. Of course, this makes no sense, so when Westbrook was asked by a reporter if he wanted to explain or clear up what he meant, he responded accordingly.

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.”

Religious Respect Or Rape Culture: Indian Government Advises Visitors To Not Wear Skirts

If you’re planning a trip to India, you might want to limit your vacation attire to skinny jeans and yoga pants, at least that’s what the Indian Minister of Tourism advises. HelloBeautiful.com reports Mahesh Sharma, India’s minister for tourism and culture, created a travel list of cultural do’s and don’t’s as part of the welcome kit provided to tourists upon arrival at the airport. But some prospective tourists are taking issue with Sharma’s “fashion don’t” recommendations. While addressing the media in Agra, the home of the Taj Majal, Sharma addressed a recommendation that advises women to not wear skirts at night in small cities. “(The list) has instructions like if they are in small cities, they should not roam around alone at night or wear skirts.” Sharma says the advisory has more to do with religious customs than rape culture and women should be mindful when visiting places of religious importance… [ MadameNoire ] Meet The Women Who Perform Female Genital Mutilation Female genital mutilation (FGM) is a common practice in 29 countries located in Africa, Asia, and the Middle East. Although it’s cited as a rite of passage for women, FGM is a sexually violent practice that can lead to disease and even death. According to Broadly, FGM varies from “country to country and cutter to cutter,” but the World Health Organization has classified the practice into three different types: clitoridectomy (partial or total removal of clitoris), excision (removing the inner labia along with the clitoris) and infibulation (sealing the vaginal opening shut). These rituals are usually performed in unsanitary conditions with unhygienic tools. “Aftercare usually consists of solitary confinement in a lightless room, with the occasional pail of salted water to bathe the resulting wounds,” reports Broadly. Despite the excruciating pain many pubescent pre-teens face because of FGM, there are women who chose to become cutters, even at a young age… [ MadameNoire ] Desiigner: No Methadone, Methamphetamine Or OxyContin In SUV Desiigner caught a raw deal and NYPD has some explaining to do.
