‘LHHATLS7’ Recap: Erica Mena’s Thirst For Tommie Is At Peak Levels

View original post here:

Source: FayesVision/WENN.com / WENN Tonight’s episode of Love and Hip-Hop Atlanta picks up from where we left off last week. If you recall, Jasmine rolled up in Pressed looking for Rasheeda. Jasmine just wants to make sure her son with Kirk knows his siblings, but Rasheeda wasn’t there. Instead, she got Shirleen and Rasheeda’s stepdaughter, and they let her have it about her trifling behavior. Jasmine and Kirk messed up, but Jasmine seems to be the only one who is owning up to her part in the situation. She also seems to be taking most of the heat. And Rasheeda is way too calm about this anyway. via GIPHY Estelita went running to Mimi to tell her what happened with the Erica Mena ambush orchestrated by Stevie J. She’s still pissed off by the situation and needs to vent to someone who understands. She also admitted that she did have sex with Stevie. She lied about it to Erica about it because it was none of her business, and she also wasn’t here for Stevie blowing it up like some immature schoolboy. Mimi already knew what was up because Estelita is Stevie’s type and, of course, she’s very familiar with Stevie’s scandalous behavior. Eventually, Estelita goes into a tear-filled story about all the stuff she has been through—you know, the usual—rape, stripping, etc and how she refuses to allow Stevie to play her. Mimi suggests that she call Stevie and have a talk because heart to hearts always goes well with these people. via GIPHY Shirleen tells Rasheeda about Jasmine’s visit and of course, Rasheeda is just like… via GIPHY Rasheeda is pissed off that Jasmine told her mother the DNA test results before she got a chance to. Rasheeda also doesn’t want to talk to Jasmine, and feels like that’s for Kirk to do. However, she is aware that the child is innocent and seems to be flexible in terms of allowing him to meet his other siblings and be a part of the family. She delivers the message to Kirk that he needs to “keep Jasmine to in check.” Meanwhile, according to Jasmine, Kirk hasn’t even made any efforts to see their son. via GIPHY AND RASHEEDA IS WAY TOO CALM WITH KIRK! via GIPHY Next, we find Erica Mena hanging out with Yung Joc and Melissa celebrating her move to Atlanta. The latter two invite Tommie (at Erica’s request), who is meeting Erica for the first time. It gets quite interesting when Erica tries to bag her. According to Erica, she has long had a crush on Tommie, but Tommie ain’t with it. Tommie says that Erica is giving her crazy Joseline vibes, and when Erica asks to take Tommie on a date, Tommie is just looking like… via GIPHY And she bolts out of there because Erica is quite parched and intense. via GIPHY In Erica’s defense, her game was decent. Mimi and Estelita show up and this gives Erica the opportunity to apologize to Estelita for the ambush. She then tells her that she went through the same thing with men in the industry toying with their dreams (you know, Rich Dollaz) and taking advantage of her. They both get all teary-eyed about their struggles and how they’re going to lift each other up and not let Stevie put them asunder Tommie bolted out of there so fast that she accidentally took a bracelet that was given to Erica as a gift (she was looking at it). Tommie is was admittedly freaked out by Erica, but she decided to meet up with her at a fake photoshoot to give the bracelet back and to have a less thirst-filled discussion where they get to know each other a little better. This conversation goes much better as they politick about music and Stevie J’s trifling ways. Tommie, who says she just dates men, still isn’t interested in dating Mena, but she’s down to network when it comes to music and business moves. Finally, the episode wraps with an intro to Tokyo Vanity, because what would any Love and Hip-Hop be without a viral superstar? Anyway, Toyko Vanity is new to Atlanta so Sierra has taken her under her wing. The aforementioned two women, plus Karlie Redd are having girl talk at Sierra’s salon. Sierra mentions that she’s now dating BK Brasco and spills all the tea about how she has moved on from Shooter. Then Karlie Redd says she’s dating Sean Garrett (her new producer flavor of the month), who is best friends with BK Brasco. Of course! There was a stylist named Shan eavesdropping on their conversation the entire time so she takes this moment to inform Sierra that Shooter has a 2-year-old son by someone else. It comes out that Shan has been working at Sierra’s shop for a long time so why she’s just now revealing this information is um… via GIPHY Shan says that the mother of this child in question is also a patron of the shop. She knows this because she has been doing the woman’s hair all along. Now Sierra, Tokyo Vanity and Karlie Redd are mad at Shan for “putting Sierra’s business out in the street.” Mmmkay. We’ll be back next week, same dramaful time, same dramaful place. Yes, dramaful.

Kelly Ripa: Body-Shamed (Hard!) for This Bikini Pic

Call us crazy. Say we’re going out on a major limb here, but we still feel a need to say it: The Internet can be a very cruel place. No, really. It’s true! Just take the case of Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos, for example. The long-time couple were out and about on the beach over the weekend, having a swell time in the sun, snapping pictures and sharing them on social media. At one point, Consuelos took a photo of his 47-year old wife in a two-piece bathing suit and wrote as a caption: “Sultry Sundays with the sexy one are my fave,” he wrote. Pretty sweet, right? And, based on the snapshot itself right here, pretty accurate, right? Looking damn fine, Kelly Ripa! The pair’s Instagram affection continued from there, with Ripa and Consuelos posting beach shots together in their Instagram stories, simply adding “#daddy” and “Yep” as captions. Considering the stars have been married since 1996 and have three kids, it’s refreshing to see that they remain so in love and so attracted to each other. It’s refreshing to us, at least. To others, apparently, it’s the basis for some serious body-shaming. What follows is a sampling of actual comments left by actual social media users who really may need to get a life or find a hobby — or both! She has the body of a 12-year-old boy. Guess ‘sexy’ is a matter of opinion. She is adorable, but … Kelly’s gorgeous, but isn’t there a cutoff age where age appropriateness comes into play? Just because you can rock a bikini, doesn’t mean you should. When you have teenagers whose friends can ogle pictures, then it’s creepy. She has a guy’s figure. Her body is nothing to be proud of. We really wish we were making these critiques up. But this is sort of stuff some people really take the time to think of and write online. Nobody is immune to this sort of shaming, either, not even buff men such as Stephen Amell . It makes us very sad to consider, but then we get all happy again when we remember how these strong women (and men!) often fight back against the loser trolls. Take the following cases, for instance, and then go from being angry to being inspired. Simply put: yo go, stars! View Slideshow: 29 Stars Who Shamed Their Body-Shamers

Derick Dillard: What?! I Was Not Fired by TLC!

Jill Duggar’s husband Derick Dillard lives in a world where transgender people literally do not exist. Based on this view, the former reality star has earned significant backlash online. But it actually may not be the best example of how Dillard lives in his own, manufactured universe. Not after the ex-Counting On regular responded a few days ago to statement about his status on this popular TLC program. “Missing you and Jill on Counting On. Do not know why you are gone from the show,” wrote a fan of Derick’s this month, adding: “Loved watching your journey. God Bless you, Jill and the kids.” Dillard appreciated the message and wrote back: “We were going in a different direction as a family and decided to stop doing filming.” “Thank you; we hope you are encouraged in some way by our journey, especially our reliance upon our savior, Jesus Christ.” To anyone who has actually followed Dillard’s journey, this response is rich… … and flat out inaccurate. Last November, TLC issued a statement that said it had “no plans” to work with Dillard in the future after he made controversial statements about the LGBT community. Specifically, Dillard insulted and mocked fellow reality star Jazz Jennings on multiple occasions, lashing out at her transgender lifestyle. For example, just three weeks ago, Dillard labeled Jennings as a male , despite the teenager insisting in many occasions that she identities as female. Long before this latest jab, Dillard took it upon himself to slam the entire concept of anyone identifying as a gender that he or she was not born as, Tweeting: “What an oxymoron… a ‘reality’ show which follows a non-reality. ‘Transgender’ is a myth. Gender is not fluid; it’s ordained by God.” At the time, Derick tried to defend himself. Terribly. He stated that he had nothing against Jennings; that he “only [has an] issue with the words and definitions being propagated here.” So, you know, Dillard only has an issue with everything Jennings is, and stands for. That’s all. Nothing more! Several weeks after Derick first attacked Jennings and people like her, TLC confirmed it would never work with the bigot again. We want to let our viewers know that Derick Dillard has not participated in Counting On for months , wrote the network late last year, adding: The network has no plans to feature him in the future. We want to reiterate that Derick’s personal statements do not reflect the views of the network. TLC is proud to share the story of Jazz Jennings and her family and will continue to do so. Could one interpret this as saying that Dillard CHOSE not participate in filming, as he claims above, and the network then simply let viewers know that it didn’t plan on including him going forward? Yes. But does anyone really doubt that Dillard would embrace the opportunity to enter the spotlight again via a role on the show if asked by producers? View Slideshow: Derick Dillard Labels Transgender Movement as Form of Child Abuse After TLC Tweeted its quasi firing of the D-Lister, Dillard Tweeted the following : “Thank you to all those who have supported us and given us so many words of encouragement recently. God bless you all!” He also added a bible verse: “A joyful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones. (Proverbs 17:22).” Thankfully (or the exact opposite of thankfully), those who still want to hear from Dillard do not need to watch him each week on TLC in order to do so.

Watch: Schoolboy Q, Future, and DJ Esco Attend A House Party In The Hills For New “Code of Honor” Video

Read the original here:

Source: Kevin Winter/BET / Getty DJ Esco taps both his longtime collaborator and friend Future , along with Los Angeles legend Schoolboy Q for his new track, “Code of Honor.” They just released a visual for the track, in which the trio attends a lavish house party somewhere in the Hollywood hills. This video is a really fun one. The crew pops some wheelies on their bikes, show off some fancy cars, and just have an all around good time rapping with one another. The video is really simple, but it works perfectly to showcase the quirky track. Hopefully we get to see this trio make some more music together sometime soon.
