The City Girls star and expecting mother has publicly spoken about the heinous attack, stating that the incident has left her shaken. While sitting in her G-Wagon, the rapper born Caresha Brownlee was shot at a reported 14 times on August 5 after leaving Circle House Studios in Miami. On Wednesday, Yung Miami took to her Instagram story and shared with her fans the state of mind she’s in since surviving the shooting. “Keep looking at my pictures & all my mentions like it really could’ve been R.I.P.,” Yung Miami wrote. “I’m really not okay!” The “Act Up” rapper also side-stepped a verbal attack from jailed rapper Kodak Black, who stated in a freestyle that he’d punch the mother to be in the stomach. As of now, there does not seem to be a connection. Check out Yung Miami’s IG story post, courtesy of The Shade Room.

Source: Alex Wong / Getty If you have been using Instagram or Twitter for years, you are well aware of the fake followers. A new report is now detailing just how bad it really is, and there are big celebrities who have a lot of them. The report from ICMP highlighted the ridiculous amount of fake followers celebrities have on the social media platform. The investigation was broken down into categories about what each star does. Ellen DeGeneres topped the showbiz category with most fake followers listed at 58%. Following her is the mega-popular K-pop band BTS with 48%, Kourtney Kardashian and Taylor Swift both at 49% and Ariana Grande’s 46%. Other notable names on the list include both Kim and Khloe Kardashian who also have a lot of fake Instagram followers listed at 44%. Seasonless twerker and habitual culture vulture Miley Cyrus clocks in at 45%. Mr. “I like my chips with the dip,” Drake appeared in the report with 38%. As far as sports stars are concerned, Soccer’s most prominent names in the game top the list. Toni Kroos of Real Madrid topped the report overall with a whopping 57% of fake followers following him. His teammates Isco Alarcon Suarez (54%) and Luka Modric (50%) are right behind him. Going through the full report, it shows in great detail no celebrity is safe from picking up fake followers. Even Beyoncé is on the list with 31%, but as long as she is not in the top right? Anyway, we just hope no one this list is actually purchasing these fake followers, that would be the ultimate sin.

Nowadays not only are rappers doing their thing on the silver screen and on the tube, but they’re also getting in on the animation game. Just a few months after Vince Staples’ Adult Swim project Lazor Wulf was announced, the Migos’ Quavo broke the news that he and Imagine Entertainment’s co-founder Brian Grazer are working together on an animation project inspired by Atlanta’s Hip-Hop scene. According to Complex the ATLien and Grazer are set to executive-produce a “transformative franchise” but unlike the mature content found in Staples’ Lazor Wulf , Quavo’s vision is being crafted to accommodate the children of the culture. “I have long seen how hip-hop as well as our music (Migos) really impacts kids,” Quavo said in a press release Thursday announcing the new animated franchise series aimed at kids ages 8-12. “I’ve loved animation my whole life whether on TV or in movies and I wanted my first jump into this premium content world to be a show just for kids. It will definitely reflect the creativity, love, and families in and around the NAWF side of Atlanta where we grew up.” The series will draw from the Atlanta hip-hop scene and marks a partnership between Imagine’s Marginal Mediaworks, Imagine Kids+Family, Quality Control Music, and Motown. Quality Control’s Pierre “Pee” Thomas and Kevin “Coach K” Lee will produce alongside Dan Altmann and Capitol Music Group’s Brian Nolan and Ryan Allingham. Sounds like Quavo and company are about to fill a space needed for the kids who don’t have many cartoons to choose from that they can relate to. Coach K said as much when sharing his thoughts on the upcoming project. “When I was growing up there was very little media that had brown and black skinned kids feeling heard or seen and the ones that did stood out and served as a crucial roadmap through our childhoods,” he said. “I’m about inclusive stories that address all kinds of situations that kids of ALL ethnic and financial backgrounds experience and to give them a common tool to learn and grow.” No word yet on when the series will premier but expect some original music and merchandise to accompany it’s release when the time comes.

Taylor Swift recently concluded her feud with Katy Perry in very memorable fashion: The latter dressed as a hamburger and appeared in the former's latest music video. And yet while this long-lasting hatchet was buried over the summer, we somehow doubt Kim Kardashian will be donning any food-themed attire for any Taylor Swift project int he near future. Why not? Because these two are STILL going at it! Three years after their rivalry kicked off, Swift spoke to Vogue magazine and once again rehashed what happened and how it made her feel, trying to once again come out on top of Kim as though she were Ray J or something. Take a deep breath and scroll down for the latest… 1. Can You Recap the Basis for This Feud Again? Yes: Way back in July of 2016, Kardashian posted Snapchat videos of Swift talking with Kanye West about his song “Famous,” which featured the lyrics: “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex / Why? I made that bitch famous.” 2. So What? Well, Swift had previously slammed Kanye for this song, making it sound as if she had no idea she would be referenced in such a negative manner. 3. She Was Therefore Exposed? Yes, exactly. The conversation between Kanye and Swift that Kim made public featured Taylor being told about West’s lyrics and giving her approval. 4. Take THIS! Swift fired back at Kimye on Instagram three years back, saying memorably on her page: “I would very much like to be excluded from this narrative, one that I have never asked to be a part of, since 2009.” (That’s a reference to when Kanye interruped her speech at the MTV VMAs.) 5. She’s a Cold-Hearted Snake Kim proceeded to trash Swift as a snake on multiple occasions. 6. Did This Have an Effect on Swift’s Career? We’re pretty sure it did. Taylor mostly disappeared from the spotlight for around a year and her latest album has not sold nearly as well as her past albums. View Slideshow
We probably don’t need to tell you that Scientology is bizarrely popular in Hollywood — or that it doesn’t have the greatest reputation in the rest of the world. The reasons for this are as plentiful and insane as the Church’s millions of followers: We suppose it’s not surprising that a religion cooked up by a sci-fi writer and centered around space aliens and extreme narcissism would sell like hotcakes in Tinsel Town but wouldn’t necessarily play in Peoria. Still, as much as a cult that encourages its members to achieve success by battling the Martians in their soul seems tailor-made for actors and other film industry insiders, we’re always amazed by just how many celebs have fallen victim to Scientology’s bonkers claims. Take Brad Pitt, for example. These days, despite some rough patches in his personal life , Pitt remains so inarguably the epitome of cool that his dialogue in the Once Upon a Time In … Hollywood script probably consisted of nothing but the words “Brad says some cool Brad Pitt stuff.” But that wasn’t always the case. There was a time when Brad was just a young Missouran trying to make it in Hollywood and running into the same stumbling blocks as any young thespian. And it was during those early days of failed auditions and thwarted ambitions that the opportunistic bottomfeeders who operate the CoS almost got their hooks in young Mr. Pitt. Former Scientologist Sam Domingo — who was once daughter-in-law to famed opera singer Placido Domingo — recently spoke with Radar Online for a series of interviews in which she shares her most shocking memories from her 22 years as a member of the CoS. Domingo claims that in the early ’90s, Pitt and then-girlfriend Juliette Lewis were recruited for by the Church, but had the good sense to flee in the midst of a grueling “detoxification” program. “Brad was recruited in the 1990s during the time he and Juliette Lewis did a movie together,” Domingo says. “That’s when he was put on the purification rundown.” She described the “rundown” as “a program where they basically load you up with vitamins and you sit in the sauna and sweat for five hours a day.” “At least four kids have died on these programs,” Domingo claims. “Brad was doing the same one. He was in the sweat box.” But unlike Tom Cruise, who remains 100 percent in bed with these loonies , Brad apparently knows a fishy scene when he sees one. “He left! They weren’t able to keep Brad,” Domingo says. Thankfully, Pitt escaped and was able to portray one half of 2019’s most unforgettable onscreen duo (We’re talking, of course, about Cliff Boote and his attack dog, Brandy.), but Brad’s isn’t the only happy ending here. Juliette Lewis has enjoyed quite the memorable career herself, and it’s all because she too was able to break free from the Xenuites. “Juliette got in trouble because she got back into drugs,” Domingo claims. “She was in my course group refusing to study. She put her feet on the table and refused.” A stoned cult member with a penchant for showing the world the soles of feet? The fact that Juliette’s somehow not in the new Tarantino might be more baffling than any aspect of Scientology. View Slideshow: 13 Reasons to Be Glad You Never Slept With Brad Pitt
