Actor Kofi Siriboe Talks Being One Of Black Twitter’s Baes, His Success On Screen & “Girls Trip”

Actor Kofi Siriboe posed on the red carpet during the Girls Trip movie screen at the Theaters At Canal Place in New Orleans on Friday, June 30th, 2017. “Girls Trip” Is Available On Demand, Blu-ray & DVD Kofi Siriboe said even he’s surprised by what seems like his overnight success in Hollywood. He’s become of Black Twitter’s all time favorite panty-melters, enjoyed a love scene with Jada Pinkett-Smith in “Girls Trip” and gained a cult following as Ralph Angel Bordelon on “Queen Sugar.” “I’m still processing it all,” Siriboe told BOSSIP, adding that since he’s been shooting back to back – first “Girls Trip,” then season two of “Queen Sugar” – he hasn’t had time to take it all in. “I’m one of those people who really likes to take their time,” he said. “I’m still computing it all.” Nevertheless, Siriboe said he appreciates the love from the ladies, and hopes he can use his eye candy status to spread positivity. “It’s an honor,” Siriboe said. “Anytime people show you love you have to appreciate that…I genuinely believe my purpose is to make people’s minds flutter and hearts flutter, but to also let people pay attention to the messages that are bigger than me.” The 23-year-old stars in this summer’s smash hit “Girls Trip” which lands on digital and is available on Blu-ray, DVD and On Demand. He said he couldn’t believe his luck when he got to make out Pinkett-Smith, his childhood crush, for the film. “That was crazy because I’ve been crushing on Jada since I was a kid,” he said. “Jada is just THE figure. She and Will represent so much.”

Kailyn Lowry: Briana DeJesus is Hurting Teen Mom 2 Ratings!

Folks, it’s looking more and more like Kailyn Lowry and Briana DeJesus are in the midst of a full-blown feud. And the situation just keeps getting more and more entertaining. As you probably already know, Briana just joined the cast of Teen Mom 2 this season. All of the original cast members were said to be skeptical of the new addition, fearing that adding a fifth mom would cut into their screen time or otherwise throw off the chemistry of a show that’s been going strong for eight seasons. But it seems no one had quite as much cause for concern as Kailyn Lowry. Even though TM2 is different from just about every reality show on TV, in that the cast spends very little time together, Briana still found an opportunity to hit it off with Kailyn’s ex-husband. Rumors that Javi and Briana are dating have been circulating for months now, and Javi even confirmed the news in a recent interview with People magazine. But things got complicated just one day later, when Briana stated that she is not dating Javi during an interview with E! News. So did the relationship fizzle in record time, or did Javi misread the situation entirely? Or is something else going on here? Was Briana just messing with Kailyn’s mind by pretending to be romantically involved with Javi? Whatever the case, Briana and Kailyn are not exactly besties these days, and they’re no longer hiding their ill will toward another. Briana fired the first shot on social media, basically reporting from the reunion show that all of the Teen Moms suck except for Jenelle . Now, Kailyn is firing back, and hitting Briana where it really hurts–right in the ratings! The shade-throwing began when a fan tweeted his theory about why Briana may have been added to the cast: “They should be thanking Briana because if they had to get a 5th mom for the show ratings must have been down!” Lowry was quick to pounce, firing back: “Actually now that she’s on they went down lol. If it isn’t broken, don’t fix it.”  Damn, Kail. Looks like the ball’s in Briana’s court now. We’re sure she’s composing a quality trash-talk tweet at this moment. Watch Teen Mom 2 online to relive Briana’s tumultuous first season. View Slideshow: 13 Craziest Kailyn Lowry Rumors: Fact vs. Fiction

Kim Kardashian: Surrogate Due MUCH Sooner Than Expected!

As you’ve likely heard by now, Kim Kardashian is expecting her third child via surrogate. We know quite a bit about Kim’s surrogate, but all parties involved have done an impressive job of keeping certain important pieces of information out of the headlines. For instance, we don’t even know the name of the woman who’s carrying Kim’s baby. (However, we do know that Kylie is not the surrogate , which was a fun little rumor for a while.) Just as importantly, we don’t really know when Kim’s surrogate is due. There have been countless rumors about when exactly North and Saint will have a new little brother or sister, but no official word from the Kardashian kamp. To be clear–there’s still no official word from the Kard clan, but Us Weekly has spoken with a source who’s confident that Kim and Kanye are expecting yet another December baby. “Kim’s surrogate is due before Christmas,” an insider tells the tabloid. Yes, it seems we’re less than two months away from another new addition for the Kardashian-West clan. (Rumors that Kim is having twins are still circulating on social media, but insiders are convinced the surrogate is only carrying one baby.) Of course, little Saint West will be celebrating his second birthday on December 5. We can’t help but wonder if Kim and Kanye will keep the “Away In a Manger” vibe going with another religious name. Jesus West would be too obvious, and Kanye won’t want to give that one away, as he’s probably still expecting to find out that he’s the second coming. We suppose they could go the metal route with Judas West, but that’s really setting up a lifetime of sibling rivalry with Saint. Maybe Bethlehem West? Nazareth?  How about Mythical Transubstantiation West? Who are we kidding? This is Kanye we’re talking about. View Slideshow: Saint West Photos: See Kimye’s Kute Son! Straight-up naming his son or daughter God West is pretty much the only ego move that would surprise us at this point. Do it, Yeezy. You know you want to.

Is The Weeknd BIG Mad At Drizzy For Homebody Humping Ex-Bae Bella Hadid’s Model Cakes To Smithereens?

SplashNews Bella Hadid Is Rumored To Have Come Between Canadian Artists Drake And The Weeknd The Weeknd is with Selena Gomez now, so you would think he wouldn’t mind if his good friend Drake hooked up with his ex Bella Hadid riiiiight? WRONG! According to Page Six reports , the pairing has upset the harmony between the close-knit XO and OVO crews: “They both hang in the same Toronto crew and now they’re having to pick sides. The Weeknd performed and people on Drake’s side were like, ‘I can’t show up to that . . . Got to have allegiance,’” an insider said. “They aren’t getting along right now . . . The groups are beefing because [Drake] broke the bro code. They 100 percent hooked up.” Page Six sources also claim Drake bought out Socialista lounge this month for Hadid’s 21st birthday. Meanwhile The Weeknd and Bella both skipped Drizzy’s bar mitzvah-themed 31st birthday party this Monday. What do you think? Did Drake break bro code? Or should the Weeknd have known that Bella would be free to do who she wanted once they split and that Drake would want a piece too?

Winning: Rihanna’s Fenty Beauty Line Earns $72 Million in Earned Media Value In Just 30 Days

Rihanna’s Fenty Beauty Earns $72 Million In Just One Month It’s no secret that Rihanna’s Fenty Beauty had the ladies (and a few fellas) going crazy in these streets when it launched, particularly due to the quality and inclusivity of her product. And now the numbers show that Rih is set to far surpass that lipstick line and those K KW kits from THAT family , as well as several other established beauty brands. As WWD reports, Rih’s brand racked up invaluable Earned Media Value — a marketing metric that evaluates the worth of a product in social terms — in a short period of time, mainly thanks to her inclusion of so many skin tones in her foundation line and the excitement it garnered from social media makeup gurus . The company recorded $72.0 million in earned media value, beating out long-established labels like NYX ($51.5 million), Benefit ($48.1 million) and Urban Decay ($37.0 million). The brand, which has been praised by influencers and customers for its inclusive foundation shade range and holographic highlighter sticks, celebrated the launch with a party in New York hosted by the singer herself. Fenty Beauty’s earned media value primarily came from Instagram, where the brand recorded $45.2 million, and YouTube, where the brand recorded $10.6 million. Welp, when you win you win! Go Rih… Splash/WENN/Getty

Duggar Fans to TLC: Put Josh Back On TV!

You might feel that just about every time you read something about the Duggar family, it’s news of a new scandal or controversy. Especially common are stories that point out the family’s apparent hypocrisy and inability or unwillingness to live in accordance with the values they espouse publicly. It’s not hard to see why critics and former fans would revel in evidence that the Duggars aren’t quite practicing what they preach. After all, it’s hard to think of another famous family that suffered a fall from grace as swift and brutal as the one that befell the Counting On clan in the wake of the Josh Duggar sex scandals . Frankly, Josh’s crimes were horrific, and the efforts to help him evade prosecution were almost as appalling. As a result, nearly 18 months later, many still see the family’s misfortunes as grounds for celebration. Perhaps that’s unfair, as most of the family was not complicit in Josh’s crimes, but it’s certainly an understandable reaction, as many seem to hope that each Duggar scandal will be the last, and the family will finally be forced to leave the public eye. And, of course, it’s not just the Josh scandals that have earned the Duggars such a vocal contingent of critics. The family’s extremely conservative beliefs basically set them up for failure, and as a result, instances of Duggar hypocrisy are remarkably common.  And because the family purports to hold a position of moral authority, those instances are gleefully pointed out by the same people who have been condemned to hell by the Duggars’ belief system. We certainly understand it’s appeal, but sometimes, all that anti-Duggar news leaves us with the feeling that we’re living in a bubble. Surely, someone must still be pulling for these people, right? Yes, as it turns out, a quick trip through some popular Duggar fan pages reveals that there are quite a few folks out there who still support Jim Bob and company. Not only that, but judging by the comments on a recent photo of Josh and Anna’s daughter, many of these people are pushing a truly bizarre agenda: “I’m still so upset that they can’t feature Josh,” one fan commented. “How do they get to be a testimony of God’s redemptive power if they can’t show the healing?” “Put Josh back with his family please,” wrote another. “TLC won’t allow them to feature Josh but I’m surprised in the Duggar family page they don’t show the kid’s with their parents,” Yes, there are humans on the internet–the same internet you’re using right now!–who not only support the Duggars, but also want more Josh in their lives. Finding comments like the ones above is like stumbling into a bizarro world full of Trump supporters who wish the Access Hollywood tape was even longer. We suppose we can understand turning a blind eye to the Duggars’ indiscretions so that you can continue to support them relatively guilt-free. Denial is a powerful force, after all. But begging TLC to put a known child molester back on television? That’s something we’ll simply never be able to make sense of.
