Posted on July 11, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Source: Tony Forte/WENN / WENN Drake Drops The Lineup For His 9th Annual OVO Fest After months of anticipation, Drake finally revealed who is going to be performing at the 2019 edition of OVO Fest. B2K, Chingy, Ying Yang Twins, Lloyd, Mario, Pretty Ricky, and Bobby V will all be in the building on August 4 ready to hit Toronto’s Budweiser Stage. Drake himself is currently the only act scheduled for August 5, but given the 8 year history of OVO Fest, it would be pretty surprising if the rapper didn’t bring out a few special guests for his set. In addition to the music festival, OVO Summit will take place August 1-2, while OVO Bounce goes down July 29 to August 2.

Fedora’d Failure: Joe Budden Tried To Defend A$AP Rocky From Old Comments And Is Getting DESTROYED By Everyone

Posted on July 11, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Source: VH1 / VH1 Joe Budden loves drama almost as much as he loves (at the very least) cursing at and about any woman who he disagrees with. A couple of nights ago, Crissles of the popular podcast The Read, posted this quote from A$AP Rocky a few years ago in which he basically disregarded the Black Lives Matter movement. I thought of this when I heard about ASAP Rocky's situation in Sweden. pic.twitter.com/Ji8dIdUZKh — jeremy bearimy (@crissles) July 9, 2019 Of course all of that is quite the irony because he is now being detained unjustly in Sweden. While the world is trying to fight for his freedom that old quote only comes off as more toxic and ignorant than ever. That’s where Joe Budden comes in. The failed rapper turned reality star turned podcast host took Crissles tweet to heart and had this to say. so this why Crissle dragging Joe Budden btw. pic.twitter.com/N5g4lYnicR — Denzel. (@fauxdenzel) July 10, 2019 Twitter was NOT playing with that man and saw this as yet another opportunity to drag his a$$ all the way across the internet. It got ugly for Joe very quickly. Take a look… Joe Budden beat up his ex-girlfriend until she miscarried. Is this a good day to bring that up again or nah? — Zerlina Maxwell (@ZerlinaMaxwell) July 10, 2019

Rihanna’s Latest Photoshoot Has Sparked A Cultural Appropriation Debate…And HOW Is Kim Kardashian Involved?!

Posted on July 10, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

View this post on Instagram August Issue @HarpersBazaarCN on stands July 15th! @kimmiekyees @priscillaono @yusefhairnyc Stylist: Xiaomu Fan @chenman Chief Editors: @shasimona @weitian25 Visual Direction: @mumoodsight #harpersbazaarCHINA A post shared by badgalriri (@badgalriri) on Jul 9, 2019 at 3:19am PDT Rihanna is the latest cover girl for Harpers Bazaar China and the cover has caused a bit of controversy. The images depict Rihanna in traditional Chinese garb and while she looks absolutely stunning the imagery has raised the question of if she is participating in a bit of cultural appropriation. See, Rih Rih is wearing clothes and participating in a tradition that is not her own, which is usually a red flag for people looking for examples of appropriation. Is it fair or foul? https://twitter.com/georgieecw/status/1148673311343296520 The issues are even deeper because just a couple of weeks ago Kim Kardashian came under fire for trying to name a brand Kimono . The backlash was so intense that Kim had to change the name. Which all begs the question: what’s the difference between Rihanna’s look and Kim’s brand name? Well, for one, Rihanna was styled and photographed by a whole crew of Chinese people. Kim’s ideas came straight from her own culture vulture brain. But is that still fair? Take a look at the debate raging across the internet.

Posted on July 10, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

View this post on Instagram I know I'm a little late for National Bikini Day but I was working y'all… Finally enjoying a day off. #grateful #thisis47 #nofilter #noretouch A post shared by Essence Atkins (@essence_says) on Jul 7, 2019 at 2:12pm PDT Essence Atkins is one of those actresses who has been in the game for a while and has been in some classic flick and shows. She’s also been fine as all hell this whole time. She was down in Essence Fest this weekend looking as fine as ever. The Bossip crew definitely noticed and wanted to salute her un-aging excellence. At 47, she looks just like she did 20 years ago. So you know what time it is: take a look at the newest addition to our Hello Summer series. So let’s salute a baddie legend and another reminder that black don’t crack. View this post on Instagram Y'all know what day it is… On location in Atlanta working on my new film “Open”. I'm both starring in and a producer on this one alongside @ninaholidayent (@cassigers & @terrijvaughn). It's a new hat and a lot of responsibility but I'm excited about the challenge. Great things come when you listen to God's promptings instead of your own deficit rhetoric. I am grateful to all who support me and are enjoying the evolution too. #myfriendaredope #blackgirlmagic #lovemyjob #thisis47 . . . And thank you for watching @ambitionsown where the summer is about to get even hotter A post shared by Essence Atkins (@essence_says) on Jun 26, 2019 at 4:46pm PDT
