Nicki And Cardi Kick It At The Met Gala Have hip-hop’s biggest divas just buried the hatchet? It’s no secret that there’s some sour grapes between Cardi B and Nicki Minaj — though neither one will outwardly say anything directly to or about the other. But with fans stepping in with sick slick talk and third parties constantly jumping in to stir the pot further, it seemed their beef was at a fever pitch. That’s why some fans were shocked to see the two seemingly exchanging niceties at the Met Gala earlier this evening. They even posed for flicks together with other partygoers. Welp, motorsport turned out to be quite a big point of drama for these two…but now that they’re seemingly on DECENT terms, maybe we can look forward to a future collab?? Here’s hoping… Getty/Instagram

The traditional thinkers are only using thoughts and words but they are in a mental prison. You are free. You've already won. Feel energized. Move in love not fear. Be afraid of nothing. — KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) April 25, 2018 I love when people have their own ideas. You don't have to be allowed anymore. Just be. Love who you want to love. That's free thought. I'm not even political. I'm not a democrat or a republican — KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) April 25, 2018 However, Kanye’s “free thought” hasn’t been going too well, considering it involved backlash for loving Trump and believing slavery was a choice. Yeezy might do well to listen to the ancestors when it comes to the pros and cons of “free thought.” The late great Prince had some thoughts on the subject that might make Kanye reconsider his philosophy.

According to the Los Angeles District Attorney’s Office, it was his friend of 15 years Jonathan Todd Jackson.

Prosecutors are recommending that Todd’s bail be set at $100,000, CNN noted . “Jackson allegedly had a videotape of the actor with a woman in Las Vegas and then is accused of trying to sell the recording to numerous celebrity news websites, prosecutors said. The Los Angeles District Attorney’s Office announced Wednesday that Jonathan Todd Jackson, who is also known as Action Jackson, was arrested and charged with one count each of felony attempted extortion and extortion by threatening letter.

Image via Mike Pont/Getty Images Two More Women Come Forward With R. Kelly Sex Abuse Stories The heat isn’t even CLOSE to being off R. Kelly for his historically *alleged* predatory behavior toward young girls. According to Buzzfeed , Two more women have come forth to share their traumatizing story about the time they spent with R. Kelly when they were only teenagers. Both Lizzette Martinez and a woman who is only being identified as “N” say they were approached by R. Kelly when they were just 17-years-old. Martinez says she met Kelly at a Miami mall in 1995, he was fully aware of her being underage (age of consent in Florida is 18), yet still took her virginity. This sexually-pressured relationship went on until 1999 with no less than five times that Kelly allegedly abused Martinez. The second woman, “N”, is represented by her mother, Michelle. N is 27-years-old now, but her harrowing trysts with R. Kelly began a decade ago in Chicago. Although 17 is the age of consent in Illinois, N was still a young and pliable teenager. “Being silent is not the answer, so I said, ‘It’s time,’” Michelle says of her decision to speak out now about her daughter. “I want my child home.” Michelle goes on to say: “I don’t know what hold he has on her, but her last words to me was, ‘Don’t ever give up on me.’” The details of both womens’ stories are as sick and twisted as every single other story you’ve heard about the man who sociopathically calls himself “The Pied Piper”.
