Police Once Investigated Anonymous Call That Kevin Hunter Poisoned Wendy Williams

Source: Pacific Press / Getty We all had a feeling that when Wendy Williams filed for divorce , some old dirt messy was going to be dug up…but not this damn messy. According to Page Six , back in January, two officers from the Livingston Police Department in New Jersey conducted a welfare check on the iconic talk show host after an anonymous caller told authorities that her husband Kevin Hunter had been poisoning her. A police report said that Hunter answered the door, but was very hesitant to let them into house, telling the officers that Williams was sick. However after explaining that they needed to check on the talk show host, he let them in, TMZ reported . Police claimed that they found Williams in her bed, “with the blanket covering from neck to toe.” The report went on to say that when Hunter was asked to leave the room so that they could speak to Williams alone, he refused. Williams later told them that she was healing from a broken shoulder and when asked if she was being poisoned, the 54-year-old tearfully replied, “Well, I’m very popular.” When asked a second time was she being hurt, she denied the accusations. Eventually the police left. It’s believed that the caller was someone who worked for Williams’ production company, the gossip website noted. As we previously reported , a few weeks ago Williams filed for divorce from her husband of nearly 23 years, having those papers delivered at 6:30am. Hunter has also been fired as the executive producer of talk show . While last month Williams said on her show that she was “very much in love with my husband” and that her ring “ain’t going anywhere,” she is definitely singing a different tune. As we know, there are plenty of reasons for Williams to walk away from her marriage, which includes Hunter allegedly having  a decade long affair with Hudson , perhaps even having a baby with her. That, and Williams has been  battling with addiction issues , which Hunter’s alleged cheating may have caused her to spiral. Also, it was reported that  Williams was allegedly rushed to the hospita l last month after hearing of Hudson and Hunter’s bundle of joy. That, and the 54-year-old’s popular talk show is on  another hiatus . Then there were the allegations of physical abuse. Here’s what we are clear of:  Thank goodness Wendy has finally gotten away from this man! RELATED NEWS: Boy Bye: Kevin Hunter Officially Out As Executive Producer Of ‘The Wendy Williams Show’ Praise!

Wo Oo Ohhh Ho: Beyoncè’s #BeforeILetGo Challenge Has Us Hype To Two-Step Into Cookout SZN

Go here to read the rest:

Source: Splash News / Splash News Beyoncè , Beyoncè, Beyoncè —  is there anything this woman doesn’t get right? Just one week after stopping the world once again with a surprise Netflix film and a brand new track, the Queen Bey proved once again that she has her ears to skreets. On Monday, she posted her first ever Instagram story, and of course, her 127 million followers were hype that Bey is getting more active on social media. To our surprise, she’s more active than we thought. The Beychella phenom posted over 40 minutes of footage with people dancing to her remake of Frankie Beverly & Maze’s “Before I Let Go”, declaring it an official dance trend. “Are my eyes broken or is bey actually promoting and posting about the before i let go challenge….??……?……i’m scared what you got planned ms carter.”- @BecauseOfJoon “Okay this Beyonce’s Before I Let Go dance might be the one challenge I actually commit to! Time to work my middle till it hurts a little” – @Mimionalaja For so many years, we’ve danced and partied to the same classic tunes during cookout season — but leave it to the Queen of Entertainment to bless us with a new bop that millenials can ask their parents “What you know about this?” View this post on Instagram #beforeiletgochallenge #beyonce #story #challenge #dance #homecoming #beyhive A post shared by Beyhive (@beyoncefrance_fanbase) on Apr 23, 2019 at 7:27am PDT   Dance challenges have been known to catapult a simple song into something world renowned. For example, Drake’s “In My Feelings” was a dope record, but once Instagram comedian Shiggy added his dance moves to it, it became a thing in pop culture.  But for millenials, we can smell when things are forced upon us and don’t occur naturally. For example, there was a whole debate last year about Lil Wayne’s “Uproar” challenge and Ciara’s “Level Up” challenge feeling kind of forced. Do you agree? “Does the uproar challenge come off kinda forced to you? Idk maybe I’m trippin”- @GetemKeith However, when it comes to Bey’s #BeforeILetGo challenge, everything from the timing of the film, to her personal homecoming at Grambling State, to weather change aligned so flawlessly. “Give me two days [to learn the steps] . imma be the talk of the cookout!” @therealldezz Of course, the 1981 version of the classic song by Frankie Beverly & Maze will still get some shine at the Barbeques and Homecomings, but we all want parts of anything new and fresh — especially if Beyonce made it a thing.  Hit the flip to check out some of the best moves from Bey’s #BeforeILetGo challenge. And get your dance moves ready, because it’s gonna be a wild Summer.

Photo: @stretchd_34 Cleveland rapper Qamar Akee Williams, known as Q Money, turned himself into authorities last Thursday following accusations of shooting and killing fellow musician and Ohio native 24-year-old Calvin Alexander Chappell April 15 at Chappell’s cousin’s home in Dacatur, GA. SEE ALSO:  Watch Q Money Take The Stage At Z1079’s White Out Concert [VIDEO] SEE ALSO:  Q Money Ft. YFN Lucci – “Whole Ticket” [VIDEO] Q Money’s family released a statement offering their condolences to the Chappell family and went on to say Q was simply acting in self-defense and therefore not guilty of first-degree murder. “As the facts and evidence continue to become available, we are sure that they will show that Qamar acted in self-defense from feeling as though his life was at risk and being threatened.” Read the full statement below. First, we would like to send out our deepest condolences to the Chappell Family at this unfortunate time of loss. We were very familiar with Calvin Alexander Chappell in his younger years with our son. He was a kind young man with a bright future as a singing recording artist. Our son Qamar was focused on bringing positive energy through his music. He started his career from the ground up and does not promote violence or portray the use of guns in any of his visuals that he releases. His rapid rise to stardom fueled his ambitions to continue to work hard to get his career to the next level until he had reached the goals that he had set for himself. Qamar loves his son, his family and his craft. He has shown perseverance to eventually have become the next biggest artists ever. At the recent tragic loss of Nipsey Hustle, all artist are finding themselves thinking about what would they do if placed in a predicament that they would have to protect their lives if it were being threatened due to being a celebrity. We feel Qamar was a victim in this situation as well due to his life being completely being altered behind this event. Qamar is an energetic, enthusiastic young man and has no malice in his heart for anyone. As the facts and evidence continue to become available, we are sure that they will show that Qamar acted in self-defense from feeling as though his life was at risk and being threatened. We are deeply saddened by the way the information that has been released portrays the night in question. We are here 100% to support our Son Qamar. On April 18th, 2019 Qamar turned himself into the Atlanta Dekaulb County Police for further review of this case. We are praying for the Chappell family and we ask that you keep our family in your prayers as well. We look forward to a positive outcome for our son Qamar “QMoneyyyyy” Williams. Thank You From the Family of Qamar Akee Williams Williams is currently being held on a felony murder charge.

Osundairo Brothers’ Lawsuit: Jussie Smollett Faked Attack For Clout

See the article here:

Source: Allen Berezovsky / Getty The Jussie Smollett saga continues as new lawsuit emerges. The Osundairo brothers are behind this latest litigation. They’re suing two of Smollett’s defense attorneys, Mark Geragos and Tina Glandian, for defamation and false light. Join Our Text Club To Get The Latest Music, Entertainment, Contests And Breaking News On Your Phone. Text BALTIMORE to 24042 to join! They were initially arrested as suspects in the alleged attack, only to be released later. According to court documents obtained by the Chicago Sun Times, the brothers say Smollett paid them to stage the attack and directed every aspect of the scheme. “Mr. Smollett used his clout as a wealthy actor to influence Plaintiffs, who were in a subordinate relationship to him and were aspiring to ‘make it’ in Hollywood,” the lawsuit said. “Mr. Smollett’s motivation was simple. He wanted his employer and the public to notice and appreciate him as a successful black, openly gay actor. So, Mr. Smollett directed every aspect of the attack, including the location and the noose.” Cook County state’s attorney’s office dropped all criminal charges against Smollett last month after he paid $10,000 and performed community service. After those charges were dropped, the Osundairo brothers claim both lawyers continued to blame them for the attack in multiple media appearances. Glandian is accused of going as far as suggesting Smollett and Bola Osundairo had a sexual relationship during an interview on a podcast. That claim allegedly caused Bola severe distress as he is heterosexual, in a relationship and often visits family in Nigeria. Same-sex activity is illegal in Nigeria and can result in 14 years in prison or death. This federal lawsuit comes on the heels of another lawsuit from the City of Chicago demanding Smollett pay them back for money spent on the investigation. Smollett has continued to maintain his innocence. [ione_media_gallery src=”https://92q.com” id=”4072131″ overlay=”true”]

Jussie Smollett’s Brother Comes To His Defense In Op-Ed For BET

View original post here:

Source: Joseph Marzullo/WENN.com / WENN Jussie Smollett’s brother is coming to his defense after the actor was accused of staging his own attack back in January. According to Jojo, who penned What If Jussie Smollett Is Telling The Truth? for BET, Jussie “didn’t even want to contact police” to begin with. “He was weary and didn’t care for the unnecessary attention it might garner. His choreographer insisted, and the choreographer contacted the police himself,” Jojo wrote in the op-ed, also claiming Jussie is now suffering mentally. The Empire actor has since been acquitted but faces a civil lawsuit from the city of Chicago who claims he intentionally misled police . “I WAS SHOCKED AT HOW EASILY easily everyone accepted the ridiculous motive about Jussie’s career that was promulgated. Jussie had actually begun directing episodes of  Empire , which brought additional compensation. He worked out a deal with Fox to own 100% of his music masters, released an album, which lead to a sold out world tour and he donated every cent of ticket sales to charity,” he wrote. “He even signed the group, June’s Diary, to his label. My brother was developing two films with one of the biggest producers in Hollywood, had the lead to a Broadway show on the table and owns the option rights to the authorized autobiography of his idol, Alvin Ailey. All pointing to not only an advancing career but a business savvy mind. To suggest that he staged his own attack to boost a sagging career is ludicrous. Jussie has a team of extremely effective agents, managers, publicists, and attorneys who helped him acquire career advancement. He wouldn’t need to roll around on the icy ground of a Chicago street, staging an attack on himself to make this happen.” Read the piece in full here and let us know where you stand. — Photo: WENN

The gentleman who was also hit in the shooting has been given his freedom back. As reported by  Page Six Kerry Lathan has been released from a detention center in California on Saturday, April 20. The Los Angle native witnessed the assassination of the “Racks In The Middle” rapper on March 31 where he too took a bullet to his back. Upon his release from the hospital, he was promptly put into police custody. As a felon who served 25 years for murder being with a known gang member was in direct violation of his parole terms. Luckily the legal system was able to apply common sense to his situation. His lawyer Lauren Noriega claimed that the 56-year-old was at the scene by chance. “He wasn’t there to propose any business to Nipsey . He had no idea that Nipsey would be there” Noriega explained. Previous reports alleged Nipsey was meeting him to give him free clothes. Lathan suffered a stroke while in custody and still has the bullet lodged in his back. His representative said he started crying when was told he would be let go. — Photo: Getty

Elizabeth Warren Details Proposal To Eliminate Student Debt

The news comes ahead of a CNN town hall geared towards interests of young voters.   Sign Up For Our Newsletter! Close Thank you for subscribing! Please be sure to open and click your first newsletter so we can confirm your subscription. Email Submit “Long before I ever came within a hundred miles of politics, I was a teacher. I just wanted every kid to get a chance to build something,” Warren wrote on Twitter. “That’s why I’ve fought so hard to end the student debt crisis & invest in opportunities for America’s young people.”   The 2020 presidential candidate’s proposal would cancel up to $50,000 in debt for people with an annual household income of under $100,000 (your average American). According to the Los Angeles Times, anything beyond that income threshold, “smaller amounts of debt would be canceled but no one with more than $250,000 in household income would be eligible.”   In her plan to make educational debt more manageable, Warren also proposed free tuition for 2-4 year public colleges.   LA Times reports:   At issue is the top economic challenge for a key Democratic constituency — millennial voters, many of whom have gone to college and left school during a decade that has seen an explosion of student borrowing. Student loan debt has more than doubled, to about $1.5 trillion, over the last decade, according to a Federal Reserve report that found the trend has contributed to declining rates of homeownership among young adults. “The time for half measures is over,” Warren says. “My broad cancellation plan is a real solution to our student debt crisis. It helps millions of families and removes a weight that’s holding back our economy.” Long before I ever came within a hundred miles of politics, I was a teacher.
