Kimmy Cakes…Esq? Kim Kardashian Vows To Become An Attorney, Plans To Take Bar Exam In 2022

Source: Mathew Imaging / Getty Kim Kardashian Plans To Take The Bar Exam And Become Lawyer Kim Kardashian has mastered reality TV, fashion, make-up, and attention-sloring, but now she says she’s ready to master the law. According to TMZ , the mother of four revealed to VOGUE that she’s made the decision to become a full-blown attorney just like her daddy, Robert Kardashian. We’re not talking about a purchased law degree here, Kim says that she will work as an intern at a San Francisco law firm for the next four years and take the bar exam in 2022. “I had to think long and hard about this,” she says, gleefully devouring chile con queso with chips now that her Vogue shoot is over. What inspired her to embark on something so overwhelmingly difficult and time-consuming—even as she also runs a multimillion-dollar beauty enterprise—was the combination of “seeing a really good result” with Alice Marie Johnson and feeling out of her depth. “The White House called me to advise to help change the system of clemency,” she says, “and I’m sitting in the Roosevelt Room with, like, a judge who had sentenced criminals and a lot of really powerful people and I just sat there, like, Oh, shit. I need to know more. I would say what I had to say, about the human side and why this is so unfair. But I had attorneys with me who could back that up with all the facts of the case. It’s never one person who gets things done; it’s always a collective of people, and I’ve always known my role, but I just felt like I wanted to be able to fight for people who have paid their dues to society. I just felt like the system could be so different, and I wanted to fight to fix it, and if I knew more, I could do more.” Van Jones was quoted in the cover story and professed that he’s seen Kim do things that would lead her to be a legit attorney… And then the unexpected happened. “Kim Kardashian,” says Jones, “wound up playing this indispensable role, and a lot of people have gotten furious with me, saying I’m stealing the credit from African American activists who have been working on this issue for decades. And first of all, I’m one of them. But I was in the Oval Office with Kim and Ivanka and Jared and the president, and I watched with my own eyes Trump confess to having tremendous fears of letting somebody out of prison and that person going and doing something terrible, and the impact that that would have on his political prospects. He was visibly nervous about it. And I watched Kim Kardashian unleash the most effective, emotionally intelligent intervention that I’ve ever seen in American politics.” What do you think? Would you hire Kim Kardashian to get you or a loved one out of a jam?

Brittany Cartwright: ALREADY Pregnant With Jax Taylor’s Baby?!

At times, the current season of Vanderpump Rules has felt like the final episodes of a long-running high school drama. The characters we’ve watched party, cheat, fight, and generate endless drama for the past several years now appear much too old for such shenanigans, and the realization that it’s time for a change is bittersweet. Sure, it’s nice to see the cast finally grow up, especially since some of them are beginning to show physical signs of age, and dancing on a bar while guzzling tequila straight from the bottle is becoming a rather sad sight. (On high school dramas, this is a result of Hollywood’s tendency to cast 25-year-olds as freshmen. On Vanderpump , it’s a consequence of the fact that most of the cast was already in their thirties when the show premiered back in 2013.) But at the same time, we’re more than a little bummed that we’ll no longer be able to bear witness to all that debauchery. As they approach their middle years, the most enlightened grownups realize that if you cling to youth, the consolations of aging — wisdom, stability, a greater sense of self — are lost to you. And astonishingly, it seems no one in the Vanderpump cast is more aware of this fact than Mr. Jax Taylor. One of the recurring themes of this season is the notion that Taylor has changed his ways . And while we counted ourselves among the skeptics at first, it now looks as though Taylor may have been speaking the truth when he stated that his father’s death had caused him to see the light. For one thing, Jax is soon to marry Brittany Cartwright . The wedding will take place in June, and will be featured on the eighth season of Vanderpump . So fans have quite a wait ahead of them — and it seems many are convinced that Jax and Brittany were themselves unable to wait for their wedding night. There’s a widespread rumor on social media that Cartwright is already knocked up with Taylor’s baby. And ironically, comments the couple recently made to the contrary have only added fuel to the fire. “I’m definitely eager to have kids and Jax is eager to have kids. He’ll be 40 two weeks after [the wedding]. I’m 30, we’re ready. We’re buying a house,” Brittany recently told Us Weekly . “When it happens it happens. We’re not going to be very careful. We’re gonna let it come with God’s grace, and he’ll give us a baby when [it’s] ready.”  Jax echoed the sentiment saying he can’t wait to become a father. “We’ve been together for four years and my whole life has been a party, so I’ve done everything I wanted to do. I’m ready for the next step,” Taylor told the magazine. “I’m ready to have kids. I’m ready to be part of the PTA, soccer dad, soccer mom, gymnastics coach, whatever. That’s my next job.” Many fans believe these remarks are Jax and Brittany’s way of bracing the public for a pregnancy announcement — but we feel they’re reading too much into it. Besides, Jax swears he’s stopped lying , and we all believe him when he says that — don’t we?

NeNe Leakes and Cynthia Bailey: BOTH Fired by Bravo?!?

Can you believe that Season 11 of The Real Housewives of Atlanta is already winding down to a close? What changes will Season 12 bring? Given the way that  NeNe Leakes and Cynthia Bailey have clashed , viewers know that things between them have become untenable. Is Bravo going to clear the air by firing both NeNe  and  Cynthia? Who could possibly replace them? RadarOnline   reports that everyone involved is very conscious of this fierce new feud. Ultimately, it will just be in the hands of Bravo execs — but producers already know what they’re not going to do. “NeNe is coming back,” an insider assures. “She’s had a rough season,” the source acknowledges. “But,” the insider affirms. “She is the one that Bravo wants.” NeNe has had a lot to deal with, including Gregg Leakes’ cancer and her own meltdown that was captured on film. “Unless NeNe decides on her own not to do the show,” the source begins. The insider continues: “they will have her back.” “And,” the source teases, Bravo will even “give her a raise.” She already raked in $2.75  million  actual dollars for Season 11. But while NeNe’s place remains secure, the report cannot say the same for her former friend. “Execs are still considering firing Cynthia,” the insider reveals. That would be a significant shake-up to the cast. If they do go that route, they already know who will fill the void created by Cynthia’s departure. The source announces that execs would follow by  “bringing Marlo [Hampton] on full time.” “She could get married and have a baby,” the insider suggests. Speaking of execs, the source notes: “and they would like that.” But storyline potential — and it really is just  potential  at this point — isn’t all that Marlo has going for her as a potential Full Housewife. “She stirs the pot,” the insider observes. “She’s fun,” the source characterizes. “And makes for great TV.” There’s one person who definitely won’t return to the show’s roster, no matter how many fans she has. “The executives hate Kenya still,” the insider reveals. Hate ?! Hate is a strong word. “And they know that she was trying to capitalize on her free appearance for publicity when she showed up at Cynthia’s party,” the source says. Well … yeah. The insider concludes: “Kenya is definitely never, ever, ever coming back.” This report contains what may be some extremely good news for NeNe Leakes. A continued role on the show and a raise? That’s the dream. But we must stress that the contents of this report have yet to be confirmed. This could be the opinion of someone who works on the show’s production. That’s a far cry from an official announcement. And even if this report is true, it’s no guarantee that Cynthia Bailey is losing her peach. If she stays on the show, you can be sure that she’ll stir up added drama in Season 12 to keep her place secure. It’s the smart move to make.

Justin Bieber Pens Super Romantic Poem To Hailey Baldwin

Justin Bieber is shouting his love for wife Hailey Baldwin from the rooftops.  And we all hear it… loud and clear.  On Monday, the 25-year-old got pretty cheesy  romantic and captioned an Instagram photo of Baldwin, 22, from a past Maxim photo shoot with a poem he wrote for her.  Writing directly to Hailey, the singer explained that he wanted to “publicly honor” her and wish her good luck on her shoot for the day.  “Sunlight falls into the Abyss Just like i fall into your lips,” the Biebs began his love letter.  “Waves crash onto the shore My love for you grows more and more Sound of the crickets a true meditation I think about you, Gods greatest creation.” The poem continues and at this point, we are not sure if he is trying to convince us or Hailey or both that he is actually over ex Selena Gomez .  “As i fall into this blissful state I ponder on how you’re my one true SOULMATE,” he proceeded.  “It’s getting dark too dark to see A chilling breeze embraces me The smell of chamomile fresh from the garden My life is a movie that both of us star in.” “Speaking of stars I’m starting to see some They light up the sky, reminds me of my freedom How big and how vast our world is around us So grateful for god we were lost but he found us,” Justin wrote, shocking us with the lack of capitalization on the word god, yet reminding us that he is still a poet even though his music is on hiatus.  “So i write the poem with him always in mind Things all around us Just get better with time.” It’s almost over I promise.  The “What Do U Mean” singer went on to tell Hailey that he falls more in love with her each day, adding, “You have walked hand and hand with me as I continue to get my emotions, mind, body and soul in tact!” “You have given me so much strength, support, encouragement and joy.” “I just wanted to publicly honor you, and remind you that the best is yet to come! Have a great shoot today my love!” he concluded.  In just a few short days, the couple will be celebrating seven months of marriage.  Justin and Hailey got engaged in July 2018 while vacationing in the Bahamas and secretly tied the knot in a surprise courthouse ceremony in September.  And while the couple has yet to walk down the aisle and share their vows (which Justin appears to have already completed, as seen above) in front of their close friends and family in a public ceremony, they have apparently jumped the gun and already moved into a new house together last week located in Beverly Hills.  “This is their first house together as a married couple, so it’s a big deal,” a source told People .  “They worked with a designer to furnish the house. It’s a fun project for them.” While milestones are being reached, the couple is taking their marriage one day at a time so Justin can focus on his mental health. Before he can release another album, go on tour, or reasonably plan a wedding, Bieber notes that he is putting his health first so that he can “sustain” his marriage to Baldwin, his career, and his role as a future father one day.  “Hailey is able to support Justin in a way that no one else has been able to,” the Biebs insider shared.  “She only comes from a place of love.” (O kay, they truly are adorable. )  And Justin you’re doing amazing, sweetie!  View Slideshow: Justin Bieber Spills on Sex with Hailey Baldwin: It’s a Blessing from God!

Source: Daniel Bailey / Radio One South Los Angeles Intersection Named After Nipsey Hussle It’s been a rough couple of weeks for family, friends and fans of Nipsey Hussle since his untimely passing last month, but the love hasn’t stopped pouring in. On Tuesday, Los Angeles City Councilman Marqueece Harris-Dawson announced that the intersection of Crenshaw Boulevard and West Slauson Avenue in South L.A. will now be named “Nipsey Hussle Square”. Harris-Dawson said in a statement: “Ermias Asghedom known as “Nipsey Hussle” was an icon and West Coast hero. Nipsey’s genuine nature allowed him to be a light to everyone he interacted with from family, friends, fans, and his larger community. As a father, brother, and son, Nipsey was a rock helping to build an empire that will continue through generations. Nipsey will always be remembered for delivering a pure, authentic Los Angeles sound, his numerous philanthropic efforts, his innovative, community-focused business mindset, and his humble heart.” A petition to have he intersection named in his honor started circulating just hours after Nipsey’s passing, and gained over 500,000 signatures to date. Fortunately, fans no longer have to wait for their wish to be granted. The councilman will make a motion on Friday to rename the intersection. Nipsey would be proud.

Bussin’ Out The Banjo: Lil Nas X And His Trap Cracker Barrel Banger Giddy Up To #1 On The Bigoty Billboard Charts

Source: JohnnyGreig / Getty His “Old Town Road” Hit Tops The Hot 100 Chart Yeehaaw!! The boot-sliding, knee-slapping tune that’s bumping in parlors and low-riders everywhere has finally taken over the charts. According to Billboard , Lil Nas X ‘s “Old Town Road” hit No. 1 on the Hot 100 chart, giddying on up from its previous No. 15 spot. The viral hit’s success comes just in time for Lil Nas’ 20th birthday, which is August 9. The young gunner joins people like Cardi B for having his initial Hot 100 entry top the charts with no featured guests. Cardi once did this with her smash “Bodak Yellow (Money Moves)” in October 2017. “Road” also hit the No. 1 spot on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart and the Hot Rap Songs chart, jumping from No. 7 on each list. There’s nowhere to go but up for the country trap treasure since the “Old Town Road” remix was released last week and is also expected to do numbers. Both the remix and original version will count towards the song’s singular placement on the charts. So fasten your saddles and giddy up pardners! The yeehaw agenda is just getting started! Hopefully, the backwards Billboard will take notice and change accordingly.

Coachella Cancelled: Solange Pulls Out Of Performance Due To Rampant Sickness In Her Band

Source: PYMCA / Getty Solange Cancels Coachella Performance Solange really tried to make Coachella happen, but life just isn’t cooperating. According to TMZ , the “production issues” that she was experiencing was really more of an issue for her band. Word is that several people have come down with an illness that has taken them completely out of rehearsals etc. Solange and co. tried their damnedest to get new band members but she felt like she just couldn’t give the performance that she wanted to give and decided it was better to pull the plug than to half-a$$ it. Maybe Solo will come back next year stronger like her big sister did.

Get Your Life Together: New York Man Charged With Threatening To Kill Muslim Congresswoman Ilhan Omar

Source: Mark Wilson / Getty A Man Has Been Charged With Threatening To Kill Ilhan Omar A New York man has been charged with threatening to kill one of the first Muslim women to serve in the US Congress, Ilhan Omar . Patrick Carlineo Jr was arrested after placing a call to Omar’s office, in which he allegedly called the congresswoman a “terrorist” before threatening to shoot her, federal prosecutors said. According to the  FBI , the 55-year-old sounded angry during the call to the Washington DC office of the Minnesota representative, but he “spelled his name correctly and provided contact information” to a staffer. Mr Carlineo later told bureau investigators that he “loves the president and that he hates radical Muslims in our government,” according to the criminal complaint filed by US Attorney’s Office in the Western District of New York. During the call the 55-year-old allegedly said: “Do you work for the Muslim Brotherhood? Why are you working for her, she’s a (expletive) terrorist? I’ll put a bullet in her (expletive) skull.” The 21 March call was initially reported to the US Capitol Police, who began an investigation in coordination with the FBI. The prosecutor’s office said Mr Carlineo had been arrested and charged by criminal complaint with threatening to assault and murder a US official and he is being held pending a detention hearing on April 10. The charge carries a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison, a $250,000 fine, or both. Ilhan Omar became one of the first two Muslim women elected to Congress at last year’s midterms, joining the House of Representatives in January.
