Fetty Wap Chats With Billboard Magazine, Says He Doesn’t Care If No One Buys His Album

Fetty Wap Billboard Magazine Interview Fetty Wap has blown up exponentially over the last year, and just sat for his first major interview with Billboard Magazine. When talking about his breakout hit, Fetty revealed that “Trap Queen” — the oh-so-popular ode to the main chick that helps cook up the dope — was actually a love song that the intended person caught the gist of: “If everybody was to catch on to the [references in the] song, it wouldn’t have been that big. At the end of the day, it’s my personal love story. Can’t nobody tell me how to be in love.” And although Fetty isn’t with his Trap Queen anymore, he says they are still great friends. He also says he had no desire to put any guest features from well-known singers or rappers on his debut album: “Having people on the album, that’s not going to do nothing for me. That’s going to help them. Instead, I’ll help the people that been with me.” If that hurts his album sales …welp, he’s fine with that. “I don’t give a g*ddamn if the album don’t make it nowhere. I don’t care if I don’t sell 100 copies if all my family bought it. None of that extra sh*t matter to me, bro, as long as I get a chance to live a dream a lot of people didn’t.” Billboard

What The Hell??? British Reporter Describes Obama As “Smiling Like A Split Watermelon”

I apologise to those upset by my description of President Obama’s smile on tonight’s programme. 1/2 — Matt Frei (@mattfrei) September 23, 2015 British Reporter Apologizes After Comparing Obama’s Smile To A Split Watermelon Barack Obama slander is nothing new but one British reporter is apologetic for using what can definitely be considered a racial slur to describe the U.S. president this week. It was intended as an entirely innocent phrase that apparently has a history I simply wasn’t aware of. Honestly no offence intended. 2/2 — Matt Frei (@mattfrei) September 23, 2015 Via NY Daily News reports : A British news anchor is in the hot seat after telling viewers Wednesday that President Obama was ‘smiling like a split watermelon’ during a meeting with the Pope. Matt Frei, an editor at Britain’s Channel 4 News, made the shocking racial slur while reporting about Pope Francis’ historic trip to the U.S., where he was feted by a visibly ecstatic Obama. Frei immediately apologized, telling his Twitter followers that he was unaware of the racial undertones associated with his expression. “I apologize to those upset by my description of President Obama’s smile on tonight’s program. “It was intended as an entirely innocent phrase that apparently has a history I simply wasn’t aware of. Honestly no offense intended.” In his defense, he did make the same comment months ago about British Prime Minister David Cameron: Cameron smiling like a split water melon pic.twitter.com/KfDM5WoE9r — Matt Frei (@mattfrei) May 8, 2015 So does that excuse him at all?

Yeezy Season: ‘Ye Explains His Collection Of High-End Hobo Attire – “Sweatshirts Are F*cking Important!”

Kanye Talks Vision For Adidas Yeezy Season 2 Yeezy Season is upon us , and so is the onslaught of internet slander that sprang forth after Kanye unveiled his second fashion collection for Adidas — which mainly looked like sweatshirts and tattered tees and tights in varying shades of brown. But what exactly was ‘Ye going for with his looks? As Yeezus shared with Vogue Magazine , he just wanted to make a high quality version of what people wear on a day-to-day basis: I think people just wear yoga pants and sweatshirts, and I wanted to make the most beautiful version of that possible. Vanity Fair: It’s the ideal of the Gap, it’s the Gap 15 or 20 years ago. When it had the Peter Lindbergh photos. . . . I was so happy to just show so many sweatshirts. It’s as simple as that. I think sweatshirts are the way of the future. And we worked so hard on our development of our actual sweatshirts to make them fall a certain way, the dyeing that we do, the type of washing where we take a thicker Japanese stretch French terry and wash it down to where it keeps its original qualities but then feels so thin. . . . Sweatshirts are f*cking important. That might sound like the funniest quote ever. How can you say all this stuff about running for president in 2020 and then say sweatshirts are important? But they are. Just mark my words. Mark my words like Mark Twain. Well, we all love a good sweatshirt when it’s cold…but how many of us are truly willing to pay $560 for one??

The Game Tells Wendy Williams That He Never Smashed Khloe — But When It Comes To Kim…. [Video]

The Game Shoots Down Khloe Kardashian Dating Rumors, Confirms Kim The Game hit Wendy Williams’ couch earlier today to talk about his new dating show, but ended up taking a momnent to clear the air on exactly which members of the Kardashian clan he’s smashed in the past. When Khloe was caught bouncing her cakes on The Game in the club shortly after her divorce drama with Lamar kicked off last year, many speculated if she was tossing the box his way on a rebound . But Game says that simply wasn’t the case: “Khloé’s just a really good friend. Before you guys knew her as ‘Khloé Kardashian,’ she was just like the tomboy Kardashian,” he explained. “She was cool. She would come hangout with us and chill. It was never about that.” But what about the rumors that Kim had Game long before Yeezy season ? The rapper got a little stuttery and all but reconfirmed what we pretty much already knew… “Kanye West’s great. Kim’s great. They’re great for each other, you know. Kanye’s a really good friend of mine, he’s got a really good family structure, that baby is just to die for, I don’t want to disrespect their family infrastructure.” Well at least he was respectful enough not to get into TOO deep of detail about his ride on the Kardashian express…

Chrissy Tiegen Opens Up To Tyra Banks On Struggling To Make A Baby With John Legend [Video]

Chrissy Tiegen And Tyra Banks Talk Fertility Issues Chrissy Tiegen has been married to John Legend for two years and has been dating him for many more, so understandably she’s constantly asked when the two plan to procreate and complete their family with little mini-Legends. Though she typically gives a vague answer and dances around the question, Tiegen opened up to Tyra Banks and the rest of the ladies of FABLife earlier today and let them know that she’s actually having issues in that department — to the point of visiting fertility specialists — and it can prove to be an uncomfortable question: “I will say, honestly, John and I are having trouble… We would have kids five, six years ago if it’d happened. But my gosh, it’s been a process! So, anytime somebody asks me if I’m going to have kids, I’m like, ‘One day, you’re going to ask that to the wrong girl who’s really struggling, and it’s going to be really hurtful to them.’ And I hate that. So, I hate it. Stop asking me!” Tyra Banks revealed that she’s facing a few of the same problems and got very emotional during the segment. Poor ladies! Hopefully they can find the solution to having the families they want so badly… FABLife / YouTube

So Sad: UK Soul Singer Sam Smith Admits That He Wanted To Kill Himself Over His Obesity

Sam Smith Admits That He Wanted To Kill Himself Over Weight Singer Sam Smith recently revealed that he contemplated suicide after a photo of him looking a little chunky on NYE spread all over the net. Via RadarOnline : “I saw a picture of me on New Year’s Eve topless on a beach in Sydney and it made me want to kill myself,” he admitted. “I just thought I was huge. I’ve had issues with my weight since I was a kid… My dad became a fitness trainer when I was 12 and he tried to help me, but I’ve always had issues.” After the New Year’s Eve photo circulated, he found a renewed determination to slim down. “I was put in contact with Amelia Freer, the dietician who got Boy George to lose all his weight,” he said. Since changing his eating habits, Smith has lost 73 pounds, telling GQ magazine, “The reality is I can do it now because I have a little bit more money, and that’s the sad thing… It’s impossible to eat healthily if you don’t have any money.” We hope that Sam can keep the weight off so he can keep making great music!

BOSSIP Exclusive: PJ Morton Talks New “Live Show Killer” Live Album & Solo Tour

PJ Morton Talks “Live Show Killer” R&B/Soul singer and Maroon 5 keyboardist PJ Morton just released a new live album/concert film, Live Show Killer , which hit stores and iTunes on July 17. Recorded in front of an intimate audience at the historic Henson Recording Studios in Los Angeles in May 2015 (the same studio where “Where Are The World” was recorded), Live Show Killer includes favorites from his Grammy-nominated 2013 album New Orleans , as well as a few surprise covers, PJ’s personal faves, and even special guest appearances from Tweet and Mali Music. He’s also taking this show across country, hitting 15 cities with special guest Dee-1 . We caught up with PJ in NYC and chatted about the new album, got his take on Drake Vs. Meek, and talked his other hustle with Maroon 5. What made you record a live album as opposed to a traditional studio recording this time around? I kept trying to work on a studio album, but every time I’d get to it I thought ‘we really need to show people who we are live.’ I’ve found that people really become fans of mine when they come to the show and see what we do. The albums are — well, I like to think that they’re good — but there’s an energy that happens live with me and my band that maybe doesn’t always translate on the records. Especially having been in Maroon 5 for five years now, and having gone through my Young Money situation, a new fan base came from all of those things, and they don’t know that identity from me. So I thought it was important that before we move on to another studio record, to show all the new fans that this is what we do for real. For your newer fans, how does your independent sound differ from what you do with Maroon 5? It’s much more soulful. I feel like Maroon 5 is soulful pop music too, but I feel like I err on the soul side a little more than the pop side. I think Adam [Levine] is a soulful dude, he has a very soulful voice which is why I think we work well, but Maroon 5 is definitely more on the pop side. If you aren’t familiar, take a listen to PJ Morton and the Crusade’s live sound from a track of his recently new album: Nice, right? Hit the flip for more…
