Source: McDonald’s / McDonald’s McDonald’s Hosted The “Black & Positively Golden” Fan Experience At BETX In LA BJ The Chicago Kid and Lil Yachty were among the big names at McDonald’s imprint at the BET Experience Fan Fest. Thousands of people attended McDonald’s “Black & Positively Golden” experience at BETX at LA’s Staples Center over the weekend. BJ The Chicago Kid performed an intimate set Saturday afternoon. The R&B artist performed songs like “Turnin Me Up,” and songs from his new album, “1123,” out July 26. Before the set, BJ told BOSSIP he’s been “golden” since day one: “I used to sing background for Jill Scott. She made me golden!” Fans were treated to a dance-off, chicken McNuggets and fries and a mobile studio where they could produce their own songs. And fresh off of his set at the Staples Center the night before, we spotted Lil Yachty visiting the mobile studio. Yachty told us that he was “chilling,” but would be back in the studio soon.

Ch1ll, Ch1ÊF: Cunéifôrm K1ng Cam Newton Tr1és UnsuccÊssFuLlY Tô ßuy Wh1té Màn’s Séàt Ön Plàné For $1500

Source: Charlotte Observer / Getty Cam Newton Tries To Buy Passenger’s Seat For $1500 There are some things in life that neither cash nor celebrity charm can buy. Cam Newton learned this lesson this weekend. The Carolina Panthers’ whimsically-dressed quarterback was aboard a flight this past weekend and was dissatisfied with the amount of leg room he had in his seat (damn, Cam, no first class?). The Supermannin’ signal caller offered another passenger, a white gentleman, $1500 to switch seats with him. Here’s what happened next… So this happened… @CameronNewton offered a man $1500 cash for extra leg room on a 10hr flight and the man said “No??” #GiveFranceTheNFL pic.twitter.com/xQohV9Ngef — Eli Edwards (@ElisaraEdwards) June 22, 2019 *Neptunes sound*

During a sit-down interview with Rupaul, the ‘Beauty Marks’ singer says she’s never spoken openly about it before, but after 33 years together her parents divorced. Their split came, she says, right after Russell Wilson came into her and Baby Future’s lives. She was 29-years-old at the time. Ciara, 33, tells Rupaul it was difficult to accept the reality that her parents broke up after such a long time, but eventually, she adjusted to their new lives. Currently, both her mom and dad are remarried.

Got No Stress: Here’s Why Billy Ray Cyrus’ BET Award Performance Is Getting His Daughter Miley Dragged Down An Old Town Road

Posted on June 24, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Source: KYLE GRILLOT / Getty If you watched the BET Awards then you saw that Billy Ray Cyrus was somewhat of a guest of honor. He was part of an early joke about going to Howard University and then went on stage to perform his massive feature on Lil Nas X’s “Old Town Road.” As a result of the way he accepted X into country music with open arms, the culture has accepted him. Now he’s front and center at a black a$$ award show and having the time of his life. This all lead to some hilarious observations, namely the fact that, for the past decade or so his daughter Miley Cyrus has been trying her hardest to get accepted by black folks and failing miserably. That’s mostly because she’s been culture vulture-ing her way to the hearts and minds of exactly zero black people. She has been a pretty big nuisance for black folks thanks to her imitation art and God-awful twerking. Needless to say, she has never and probably will never be invited to a black awards show. Which is why it is absolute comedy that her father showed up at the BET Awards before her.

All of them were pure comedy. Take a look.

Posted on June 23, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Source: Mihajlo Maricic / EyeEm / Getty Tyrese West Killed By Wisconsin Police We can’t even ride our bikes in peace SMH. 18-year old Tyrese West has been pronounced dead after being shot by a Mount Pleasant on June 15th. According to Racine Police , officers attempted to make contact with West who was on a bike but he fled. Following a short foot pursuit, the officer observed West was armed. 18-year-old #TyreseWest was the man shot and killed early Saturday morning by Mt. Pleasant police. Today, I went with West’s family back to the shooting scene — they have one burning question. Full story at 5:30 on @WISN12News pic.twitter.com/oWRAAGHmVF — Chernéy Amhara (@CherneyAmharaTV) June 16, 2019 The teen reportedly ignored the officer’s commands and the officer “was forced to shoot him.” The officer has been identified as Sgt. Eric Giese, a 12-year veteran of the village’s Police Department. Giese has been a sergeant for a year and a half. He was placed on administrative leave immediately following the incident. On Thursday night, hundreds of people gathered at the corner of Racine and 20th streets to remember Tyrese . Community advocate Tory Lowe gave an emotional speech to the crowd, saying: “We want justice for Tyrese. We want answers, and the only way we’re going to get the answers is if we demand the answers. Tyrese was stopped for riding a bike,” Lowe said. “And he ended up with two shots in his head. How do we know that he got two shots in his head? Because the body was released to the family. This wasn’t told to us. We saw it.” Racine Police is still investigating the case. SMH

Ball In A Day’s Work: LaVar Ball Responds To Being Banned From ESPN & Takes Some Shots At Molly Qerim

Posted on June 23, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Source: WENN.com / WENN LaVar Ball Speaks On His ESPN Ban & Molly Qerim Situation LaVar Ball was banned from appearing on all ESPN platforms following a controversial response to Molly Qerim when he was a guest at First Take last week. But, unsurprisingly, the famous basketball father doesn’t seem to be affected by the network’s decision. Ball was discussing the recent trade between the Los Angeles Lakers and the New Orleans Pelicans that ended up sending his son Lonzo to the latter team (along with a few other players) in exchange for Anthony Davis. LaVar was in the middle of a debate with Stephen A. Smith when Molly Qerim asked, “Can we switch gears?” To which the Ball family patriarch responded, “You can switch gears with me anytime.” That response really didn’t sit well with Qerim and after the show, ESPN told LaVar that his comments were inappropriate. Ball later responded through his representative saying that he didn’t mean for it to sound like a sexual remark at all. Now, LaVar is speaking on the situation publicly, and he stands by his statement up to this point. He also has words for Molly. LaVar says the only he’ll hit on Molly is if she ever breaks in his house #lavarball #lonzoball #mollyqerim pic.twitter.com/ogHHb1zFKQ — SLEEPERSALLDAY (@sleepersallday) June 22, 2019 As you can see in the video above, LaVar insists that he doesn’t need ESPN, because he has his own show. He also clarifies that switching gears simply means changing subjects, and the only way he would hit on Qerim is if she broke into his house. Following the segment airing initially, viewers had mixed reactions about the segment and what was said. While some fans insist that what LaVar said was indeed inappropriate, others are saying that there was absolutely nothing wrong with what he said. But regardless of his response and clarification, ESPN still hasn’t wavered on its decision to ban Ball and it doesn’t look like they are planning to lift it anytime soon.

People Ain’t Isht: Mother Arrested For Abandoning Her 9-Year-Old Son At McDonald’s To Gamble

Posted on June 23, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Source: S3studio / Getty Mother Arrested For Abandoning Her Boy In McDonald’s A mother in Phoenix, Arizona left her 9-year-old child alone at McDonald’s to gamble at a casino because, “he drives [her] crazy.” According to reports from Yahoo Lifestyle , 34-year-old Stacy Rupp dropped off her 9-year-old son at McDonald’s on Wednesday evening at around 8:30 p.m. before hitting Desert Diamond Casino, located about a mile away. An employee observed the unsupervised boy looking “dirty and disheveled” and ended up calling the police. While he was there, the staff gifted the young boy with a coloring book, ice cream, and cookies, read a police report. Officer Brandon Sheffert of the  Peoria Police Department told Yahoo that the child was not upset. He said his mother dropped him off in order to gamble but noted, “She always comes back.” Her son had been left unattended for two hours. Rupp ended up arriving only minutes after law enforcement — and she came with excuses. According to the police report, Rupp first told officers she was grocery shopping at a nearby Fry’s Marketplace, but couldn’t provide any proof. She then proceeded to admit that she “messed up,” and went to the casino. “He drives me crazy and steals my money,” she said in the police report. According to AZ Family , court documents state that Rupp “did not provide a cell phone or any type of means of communication to the victim for him to get in contact with her in case of an emergency.” Stacy Rupp was arrested and charged with child abuse and endangerment. A future court date has been set for July.
