Source: Hadas / Interscope Mereba Releases “Sandstorm Video” We love “Sandstorm” by Mereba and are excited to post the powerful visual for her latest single “Sandstorm.” The piece paints a cohesive picture of love and love lost as Mereba and Dreamville artist, J.I.D, conjure up an understated chemistry. Directed by Dawit N.M. and produced by COUSCOUS, the visual for “Sandstorm” pairs breathtaking shots with Mereba’s poetry and lyrics making for an intense experience worthy of multiple viewings. Mereba has worked with Dawit N.M. on a number of videos, including “Planet U” and the visual EP for her stellar debut album, The Jungle is the Only Way Out. The 13-track project was released earlier this year and each song produced/co-produced by Mereba, with the exception of the 9th Wonder produced, “Black Truck.” Source: Hadas / Interscope “In this video we wanted to play with the idea of reflection. Both literally with the use of glass/mirrors to tell the story of time passing, and metaphorically too as me and J.I.D “reflect” on relationships that ended,” says Mereba. Mereba’s duet with J.I.D marks yet another Dreamville collaboration, as Mereba recently joined J.I.D during the North American leg of his Catch Me if You Can tour. She was then tapped for Dreamville’s highly anticipated Revenge of the Dreamers III album and can be heard on the track “PTSD” alongside Omen, Deante Hitchock & St. Beauty. Mereba has continued to impress fans and critics, proving herself as a multifaceted artist whose talents include singing, rapping, songwriting, production and instrumentation. HYPEBEAST notably described the rising star as “a powerful R&B artist with songwriting ability beyond her years.” Mereba’s ‘The Jungle Is The Only Way Out’ Album is available HERE

The champion tennis player penned an essay for the August issue, going into detail about her 2018 Grand Slam loss against Naomi Osaka. She was fined three times and ultimately, the referee had given the game to Osaka, who Serena admits played a better game. She admitted she couldn’t find peace after the match and felt betrayed by the sport she loved so much. “I felt defeated and disrespected by a sport that I love—one that I had dedicated my life to and that my family truly changed, not because we were welcomed, but because we wouldn’t stop winning.” “Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve felt a need to voice my opinion and be heard…And I won’t ever stop raising my voice against injustice.” —For our August 2019 issue, @serenawilliams talks about never being afraid to use your voice: https://t.co/1bnucoZT7H pic.twitter.com/JsfHpMmCAI — Harper's Bazaar (@harpersbazaarus) July 9, 2019 Serena was convinced it was because she was a woman standing up for herself. “If I were a man, would I be in this situation? What makes me so different? Is it because I’m a woman? I stop myself to avoid getting worked up. I tell myself, ‘You’ve been through so much, you’ve endured so much, time will allow me to heal, and soon this will be just another memory that made me the strong woman, athlete, and mother I am today.’” She eventually questioned she had done the wrong thing standing up for herself because Osaka’s win was overshadowed by her behavior. “This debacle ruined something that should have been amazing and historic. Not only was a game taken from me but a defining, triumphant moment was taken from another player, something she should remember as one of the happiest memories in her long and successful career. My heart broke. I started to think again, “What could I have done better? Was I wrong to stand up? Why is it that when women get passionate, they’re labeled emotional, crazy, and irrational, but when men do they’re seen as passionate and strong?’” She sent Osaka an apology letter. “I thought I was doing the right thing in sticking up for myself. But I had no idea the media would pit us against each other. I would love the chance to live that moment over again. I am, was, and will always be happy for you and supportive of you. I would never, ever want the light to shine away from another female, specifically another black female athlete,” she wrote. But Osaka’s response gave her the clarity she had been seeking. “People can misunderstand anger for strength because they can’t differentiate between the two,” she said. “No one has stood up for themselves the way you have and you need to continue trailblazing.” The whole incident left Serena guarded. She didn’t pick up a racket until much later. “Ultimately, my daughter is the reason I use my voice, the reason I picked up a racket again. Love breathes life and newfound perspective into people. It’s not about quitting when someone presents a challenge; it’s about getting up when you are down, dusting yourself off and asking, “Is that the best you got?” Because I have God with me, and I can take whatever comes my way.” Read the full essay, here .

Jed Wyatt, the subject of Bachelorette spoilers galore, finally decided to come forward and address his past month of scrutiny. Did he really just think all of it would just blow over? Did he think we’d forget how he went on The Bachelorette to win Hannah Brown’s heart while he had A GF BACK HOME ?! No, Jed. We didn’t forget. But we appreciate your overdue statement. Monday’s Bachelorette episode was hometowns , which is a really big deal because Hannah gets to meet the family of her final four men, which yes, includes Jed. But before all of Bachelor Nation continues to tear Jed apart following the episode, because let’s be real it pains us all to see his relationship further with Hannah at this point, he decided to ask for “kindness” from his followers on social media. Wyatt made a statement via Instagram on Monday where he basically asked for sympathy, though he said he is not able to directly address the claims at this time. “Hi ya’ll. Several of you have reached out with messages and questions,” his post began. “Please know I’m not able to answer right now, but as soon as I’m able to, I will.” “Until then, I ask that you please understand how much the actions being taken towards myself, my family, the men on the show, and above all, Hannah, are affecting all of our mental and physical health,” he shared. “It goes beyond what is said online,” he continues. “Threatening letters and phone calls have been sent to our homes. My parents and sister and being verbally attacked in public.” He then asks a simple favor of his followers. “I beg you to remember what seems like a harmless action is damaging to real people.” “I want to thank all of you who have reached out or reserved judgment until I am able to speak openly and I can only ask for your patience and kindness until then,” he concluded. While no one should ever be attacking anyone via phone or online (obviously!) Jed also should have realized early on what group of fans he signed up to deal with here! You never want to upset a room full of women (and yes, men too) under the influence of lots of red wine. In case you somehow missed the initial reports, they pretty much proved that Jed was dating Haley Stevens right before he left for the show. She even said in her statement, “He called me when he landed in L.A. He said, ‘I love you, and I’ll call you when I get back.” Stevens also mentioned how Jed only went on the show for his music career and that his plan only involved getting to the final four so he could get a good following. Well, Jed made it to the final four and while we pray it ends here, it looks like he has a very good chance of being the final suitor that gets down on one knee at the end of this thing. The songwriter has stayed extremely silent about the whole situation, maybe he is contractually obliged or maybe ABC has some live taping planned where Chris Harrison sits him down like he’s Oprah, who knows… But either way, it’s not fair to bring Jed’s family into this and we hope they will find peace following their son’s lousy move. And hopefully, we will be hearing from him soon so we can finally get his side of the argument! At this point, we really don’t know which story we are more interested in… Jed’s cheating scandal or the fact that he remains a major suspect to the windmill affair ?!

Source: AFP Contributor / Getty I have a feeling that Disney and Nike are doing everything in their power to piss off racist people and I’m all for it. If you don’t know Disney announced that Halle Bailey will be playing Ariel in the live-action remake of The Little Mermaid and that announcement sparked outrage online from some people who felt like Ariel shouldn’t be black. Those folks quickly started posting under the hashtag #NotMyAriel to voice their disdain on the decision. A lot of other great people on Twitter took to stick up for Halle against people who can’t see progress. One user named Lea Toft tweeted, “As a danish person, I have some bad news for all the people who’s angry, that a black woman is playing Ariel. Danish people don’t have fins either, nor do we live underwater – we can, and do, however have different ethnicities” As a danish person, I have some bad news for all the people who’s angry, that a black woman is playing Ariel. Danish people don’t have fins either, nor do we live underwater – we can, and do, however have different ethnicities #notmyariel — Lea Toft (@MuffinFanatic) July 5, 2019 Oh, burn. Now Disney has made a statement in the matter in a witty post about their pick of Halle, dedicated to the poor unfortunate souls who don’t like Halle. “Yes. The original author of The Little Mermaid was Danish. Ariel … is a mermaid. She lives in an underwater kingdom in international waters and can legit swim wherever she wants (even though that often upsets King Triton, absolute zaddy),” Freeform’s post read. “But for the sake of argument, let’s say that Ariel, too, is Danish.” “Danish mermaids can be black because Danish *people* can be black. Ariel can sneak up to the surface at any time with her pals Scuttle and the *ahem* Jamaican crab Sebastian (sorry, Flounder!) and keep that bronze base tight,” the text post continued. “Black Danish people, and this mer-folk, can also *genetically* (!!!) have red hair.” View this post on Instagram An open letter to the Poor, Unfortunate Souls: ______ #TheLittleMermaid #Ariel #MyAriel A post shared by Freeform (@freeform) on Jul 6, 2019 at 6:16pm PDT This has been a bad July for racist people as Nike also pulled a sneaker with America’s first flag because it has been used to promote white supremacy in the past after Colin Kaepernick brought that to their attention. That decision caused people to burn their Nikes once again but we think Nike and Disney will both be fine in the future. Nike becoming a brand that routinely upsets racists makes me think they’ll be just fine — Kazeem Famuyide (@RealLifeKaz) July 2, 2019 As for The Little Mermaid, this movie is shaping up to look just like modern-day America with Rob Marshall directing, and Melissa McCarthy and Awkafina in talks for roles in this movie.
As you may have heard, some extremely heartbreaking news came from the Duggar family last week. Joy-Anna had a miscarriage at 20 weeks pregnant. The majority of miscarriages happen in the first trimester, but a couple of weeks ago, Joy and Austin went in for an anatomy scan. As they explained it on their Instagram page, that’s where their doctor told them that the baby’s heart was no longer beating . “Although we don’t understand why,” they wrote, “God has given us unexplainable peace and comfort during this very difficult time.” “Yes, it still hurts and we have cried countless tears, but we know that we can trust the Lord.” They said that “We don’t grieve as those who have no hope because we trust that we will see this little one again.” The ultrasound that showed the loss of the baby also showed that the baby was a girl, and Joy and Austin named her Annabell Elise. “Annabell means ‘God has favored me,’ and Elise means ‘God satisfies,'” they said. “What a precious thing to know that when our daughter opened her eyes, the first thing she saw was the face of Jesus.” They also asked their followers to “Please pray for continued healing, not only physically but for our hearts as well.” It’s just an unimaginably tragic situation, right? Because the miscarriage happened so late in the pregnancy, Joy had to deliver the baby stillborn, which had to have been just devastating. In the pictures she shared after that delivery , the pain is evident on her face. Luckily, she has such a large family to support her through this as best they can. Her mother, Michelle, and sister Jill were there with her in those photos, and other family members have been very vocal about paying their respects. On Joy and Austin’s Instagram post, Jessa wrote “We love y’all so much and we grieve with you over this loss. I love the name you chose and the meaning behind it.” “Annabell Elise will forever be in our hearts.” Anna told them that she was “heartbroken” about what had happened, and that “We are so thankful for the joy her life brought and we look forward to seeing Annabell when we see Jesus in heaven.” Jeremy, Jinger’s husband, said “We love you and are praying for you. Your trust in the Lord throughout these days has inspired me to know God more intimately.” He expressed a very similar sentiment to Anna’s with “I look forward to meeting Annabell Elise with you in heaven.” But family members weren’t the only ones offering their condolences. Tori Roloff took some time to reach out to Joy and Austin, too. On Instagram, Tori wrote “Austin and Joy my heart just absolutely breaks for you two. I am so sorry. You are in my prayers.” She added “How blessed she is that she gets to be with Jesus and she gets to call you two mom and dad.” It’s so kind of Tori to leave a message like this, especially when many people in her position may prefer to not even think about such heartbreak — remember, she’s pregnant right now . Hopefully Joy and Austin saw her comment, and all of the other sweet comments about this tragedy.

Back in April, Shannon Beador reached a divorce settlement with David after what felt like an eternity of vicious, bitter court fights. Since her split, Shannon has been dipping her toes into the world of dating again. Actually, she’s taken a real plunge. Her castmates tease her for being a “heartbreaker” because, after her latest breakup, she’s now dating multiple men. RadarOnline reports that the The Real Housewives of Orange County star has been “cooling off” her romance with Comcast exec Rick Stanley. These days, Shannon Beador is dating “several men.” And apparently she’s loving every minute of it. “She’s been called a heartbreaker by her cast mates,” the insider reveals. “But,” the source emphasizes. “She is not hurting anyone.” Shannon is rich, famous, and she’s finally getting to enjoy that. “She is having fun being frisky,” the insider shares. Good for her for living her best life! “And,” the source adds, Shannon “is just enjoying her new life.” It’s great that she gets to date and have fun without David’s attorneys breathing down her neck. As the report points out, Shannon hasn’t really been single for a long, long time. She’s 55 years old and a mother of three, but she’s spent so much of her adult life tied down in a deteriorating marriage. “She was with her ex [David Beador] for her whole life,” the insider points out. Which explains why she’s taking time to explore her options instead of diving directly in to another long-term relationship. “And,” the source adds, Shannon “is not wanting to settle down like that anytime soon.” Though things have simmered down with Rick Stanley, the report emphasizes that this wasn’t some dramatic split. “Shannon really enjoyed Rick’s company,” the insider affirms. The source adds that “They got along great,” “But,” the insider explains. “Rick lives in Colorado and she lives in California.” Long-distance relationships can be difficult, even for wealthy people who can afford to travel whenever work allows. “Long distance is one thing,” the insider notes. “But,” the source continues. “That is a completely different ballgame.” Some people form international relationships for years without meeting up in person. In Shannon’s case, she’s trying to get out and about and actually date, so she wants someone a little closer to home. “If Shannon is going to get serious with someone,” the insider reveals. “He is going to have to at least live in the same state as she does.” Shannon has been through so much. Remember, even before she and David divorced, she was already living a stressful, emotionally painful nightmare. She was body-shamed. She was cheated on. And then the divorce got so dirty that she found her home’s water cut off. Not to mention incidents in which David was allegedly seen and heard yelling and swearing at Shannon in the courthouse. Now, she gets to reap the well-earned rewards of her status as a rich, single reality star. We hope that she lives it up on these dates. We also hope that at least some of Shannon’s plural dating shenanigans are caught on camera for us all to enjoy. View Slideshow: Shannon Beador Slammed by David’s Girlfriend in Scathing Callout
