(Photo by Kevin Mazur/Getty Images for Anheuser-Busch) The internet is still hype about Pusha T’s “Maybach Music VI” verse and for good reason. In a recent interview he gave more context about the viscous sixteen bars he laid for Ross. As spotted on Complex the Virginia native spoke to Joe Budden during the latest edition of The Joe Budden Podcast . Jumpoff wasted no time in getting him to discuss the memorable feature. While the “Drug Dealers Anonymous” rapper didn’t confirm he was taking shots at Drake or Lil Wayne, his answers let us know that he is still about the “if the shoe fits” life. When asked “why did you do that to this verse that’s not out?” he responded “that’s what we in it for man, we here to rap, bro”. “We all have to do what we do best, the next guy got to do what he does best,” he added. “At this stage of my career, you know, I mean… hey man, hey,” he chuckled. On the track Push had several lines that could be interpreted as bait for Drizzy or TuneChi including “What a hell of a year, true colors expose/Crowns on these clowns, it’s like you colored they nose.” Ultimately Rick Ross decided to pull his appearance from the final version of Port Of Miami 2 citing that he would like to bring Pusha and Wayne together in a more genuine manner.

Sebastian Telfair, once a star prep basketball player and eventually an NBA talent (he was drafted right out of high school), just got sentenced to three-and-a-half years in prison for gun charges. However, if you’ve been paying attention, this destiny was inevitable. Telfair was initially arrested in 2017 after police discovered guns in the car and another man were parked in illegally. According to Bleacher Report , Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez announced today (August 12) that Telfair caught the three-and-a-half year bid for gun possession. Back in April, it was reported that Telfair’s trial was nothing short of a circus. His estranged wife, and mistress, took the stand to drop dime on him while his sister basically threatened the former with the fade. In fact, Telfair’s sister was arrested by the FBI due to said threats a month later. Telfair would be eventually convicted of felony criminal possession of a weapon , and now he has learned his fate. Cold world. But at least it wasn’t the 15 years he could have been hit with.

It's been maybe a week since notorious 90 Day Fiance cheater Jay Smith went Instagram official with his girlfriend . But fans don't really know much about Kayla O'Brien, except that she was Jay's mistress for months before Ashley found out and dumped Jay. Rumors — some of them pretty outlandish — have circulated, and some aren't sure what to believe. Here's everything that we know about Kayla. 1. Kayla is Jay’s girlfriend It was obvious for a while, but finally confirmed when they went “Instagram official,” uploading photos of themselves together for the first time early this month. 2. How long have they been dating? Since January. On January 11, Ashley filed to divorce Jay over his barbershop bang. On January 22, she took him back after he rushed to her side when she was hospitalized with kidney failure. They vowed to make it work … but clearly, Jay’s words were hollow. 3. When did the public learn her name? When Jay turned himself in on July 3 and went into ICE custody for violating a Protection From Abuse order, it was Kayla who took the reigns of his social media — and who started a GoFundMe account. She used her own name … but only referred to herself as “Jay’s friend.” 4. And she greeted him when he got out Ultimately, it wasn’t her GoFundMe but Jay’s boss who bailed him out, but clearly, they were happy to see each other. 5. Is she pregnant? Ashley Martson started a rumor in a recent interview, saying: “From what I saw at court she could’ve been expecting. So if I sign [for him] I would be responsible for paying his child support. No way in hell am I going to put my name on that line. There’s no way.” 6. No That rumor has been debunked — in part by recent photos of Kayla looking not pregnant and also drinking. View Slideshow
Some TV shows manage to keep fans happy for the entire time they are on the air. Others, not so much. These 13 TV shows rubbed the fans the wrong way on more than one occasion. It probably explains why most of them are no longer on the air. 1. The Walking Dead The Negan storyline was a big deal. The moment it was teased that this comic book character was making his entrance into the TV iteration, everyone seemed excited … until he started killing off series regulars. Killing off Glen and Abraham on the Season 7 premiere in brutal fashion resulted in several complaints about the series. It never recovered in the ratings. 2. Arrow Oliver and Felicity broke up at least twice per season. The reasons for why got more ludicrous as the years went on, but still, many fans stopped watching the show in protest at just how many times this couple’s relationship was used to advance a series that was supposed to be about a superhero. 3. Empire When Empire arrived on the scene, it was bursting with the soapy goodness that TV viewers had been craving since Desperate Housewives went off the air. The show was an immediate hit for Fox, but the producers thought it would be a good idea to bring in several celebrities for guest appearances, and it took away from the escapism that the show was offering viewers. The ratings took a huge hit as viewers complained about the stunt casting. 4. The 100 The 100 was going from strength to strength until about halfway through its third season. The powers that be thought it would be rad to kill Lexa off … just as she and Clarke solidified their relationship. It did not go down well. 5. The Vampire Diaries Elena will always be remembered as one of the most crucial characters on The Vampire Diaries — even if Nina Dobrev quit two years ahead of the final season. The show was not the same without her, and the ratings circled the drain. It would have been better to just end the show in a strong way after the sixth season. 6. Game of Thrones For a show that will be remembered for decades after its finale, you would think the creative forces would have been able to craft a coherent final season. Instead, it was drivel, prompting fans to launch a petition to get the final season remade. It has clocked almost 1.8 million signatures. Wowza. View Slideshow

Now, Gloria can rest easy. Her boys are back at home. According to The Blast , Gloria and Matt finally settled their case and will split legal and physical custody of the twins equally. The boys are set to spend alternate weeks with each parent and the former couple has agreed that attending events for the children would not constitute a violation of Matt’s restraining order against Gloria. Additionally, Gloria will receive $9,983 a month in child support, a $2,500 increase, and Matt will pay Gloria’s $15,000 legal bill. That’s some positive news, right? In related news, Matt has been enjoying summer with his boo-thang Anansa Sims. View this post on Instagram We had an amazing weekend!!

Dog The Bounty Hunter viewers know that Duane ‘Dog’ Chapman was his wife’s biggest fan. His devotion was always on display as he stood by Beth through her final months, and mourned her tragic passing . So fans were understandably stunned Saturday night, when photos surfaced of Duane out to dinner with a mystery woman just weeks after Beth’s death! According to a report from The Daily Mail , Duane was spotted with the woman at an Italian Restaurant in Los Angeles Saturday night. Eyewitnesses describe the woman as a brunette bombshell, with the kind of ample curves we know Duane appreciates. The couple appeared to be on some kind of date, with both Duane and the mystery woman wearing snazzy evening attire. Duane chose a black blazer over his blue button-up shirt. The gal, meanwhile, wore a form-fitting cocktail dress with black and white chevron pattern that perfectly showed off her assets. She complimented the dress with a pair of strappy silver heels. The two reportedly laughed while enjoying a meal together, and were later picked up by the same driver. The vehicle took the couple to a gas station, where the woman and the driver picked up some supplies while Duane waited in the car. Finally, the car took the pair back to Duane’s hotel, reports The Daily Mail . Of course, Duane has yet to comment about the evening himself. But even without confirmation from Dog, fans are going nuts about this apparently romantic outing. Reports left many fans speculating that Duane had his sights set on this new beauty. Could this be real? How could Duane have moved on so very, very quickly after Beth’s death? Not even a month ago, Duane was so distraught he could barely make it through the speech he prepared for Beth’s memorial service . The loss of his wife brought Duane so low that some fans were worried for him. “If there’s a god, He won’t let me live that long without her,” Duane said during the service. If this is the hot date that The Daily Mail describes, it would be a head-spinning, Wilt Chamberlain-level rebound for the bounty hunter. However, a follow-up report from The Blast is defusing much of the drama. According to their updated take on the story, the apparently intimate evening was in fact a work event. The Blast claims that the woman spotted with Duane is a crew member on Dog’s Most Wanted , part of the hair department for the show. She has reportedly been a friend of Duane and Beth for years! Furthermore, they report that at least eight other members of the cast and crew were present. That’s quite a huge detail for The Daily Mail to omit. Did Duane and this supposed crew member leave separately from the rest of the cast? And if so, why the privacy? We know the cast and crew of Dog’s Most Wanted are around L.A. to promote the upcoming premier, which is set to air in September. So, it makes sense for the team to get dressed up and celebrate over a nice dinner. But, even knowing all this, would it be so crazy to think a few sparks are flying? Having a long, friendly history and a working relationship doesn’t rule out the possibility of a romance. In fact, it often brings people together, especially in the wake of a tragedy. Just saying.
