Link:

Source: Christopher Polk / Getty The first-week sales projections for  Travis Scott ‘s freshly released album  Astroworld  have officially arrived, and it looks like La Flame is about to have an absolutely insane opening. According to reports from  Hits Daily Double , the songs on the Houston rapper’s third studio album have been streamed over 100 million times. In terms of actual sales, the album is expected to move somewhere between 450-500,000 equivalent album units in its first week. That is an undeniably massive opening, especially when compared to the numbers Travis has pulled in the past. If these sales projections come to fruition, Scott will have more than quadrupled the first-week sales total of his last project,  Birds in the Trap Sing McKnight– which moved 89,000 units in its opening week. The album is loaded with features from big stars including Drake , Frank Ocean , and  Stevie Wonder. This album and it’s release has been teased for more than 2 years at this point, which could be why it’s doing such huge numbers. In any case, it seems like Astroworld ‘s long-awaited release has not disappointed, at least as far as number go. We’ll find out for sure once the final numbers come in. Congrats to La Flame on the huge release.

Viral Clip Of Black Woman Being Beat With Broom At Nail Salon Sparks Protest

Continue reading here:

Source: Andrew Lichtenstein / Getty A nail salon in Brooklyn is catching major heat after a video online has gone viral. At New Red Apple Nail in East Flatbush, a Black woman is caught on camera being hit with a broom by another woman in a black shirt. The Black woman being hit eventually walks out of the salon, while employees in smocks surround two other Black women in the corner. The groups yell at each other, and one employee even throws liquid at the Black women. You can watch the video for yourself here . According to Pix 11 , the whole incident occurred because a grandmother was dissatisfied with her eyebrow work and refused to pay the salon. The recording of the incident went up on Friday on Facebook and eventually gained over 700,000 views. Protesters started gathering around the nail salon on Monday demanding the business be closed and locals take their money elsewhere. Chants of “black dollars matter” were shouted amongst gatherers. Activist Jasmine Johnson says the liquid thrown in the video was acetone, the primary ingredient in nail polish remover. “So because she did not want to pay the $5 for her messed-up eyebrows, they attacked this grandmother and her two granddaughters with sticks, threw acetone on them and then called the police on them,” Johnson said. You can peep her commentary on the event and the protest below.   Police said Monday that two arrests have been made. Huiyue Zhing, an employee, faces charges of misdemeanor menacing, misdemeanor criminal possession of a weapon and harassment. She allegedly was the one who beat customer Christina Thomas with a broom, resulting in a laceration to Thomas’ neck and an injury to her back. Thomas also faces charges including misdemeanor assault, misdemeanor menacing and harassment. She allegedly punched and slapped someone, dragging them over the floor. Zhing was hospitalized with injuries to her face and body, while Thomas refused medical treatment, according to the police. Since the fight, hundreds of negative reviews have hit the salon’s Yelp page. We’ll continue to keep you updated if any major updates should surface.

Arrest Warrant Out For Orlando Brown After Skipped Court Date

Source: TMZ / TMZ There are some people in life who have not only aligned themselves with the struggle but seem comfortable there as is the case for Orlando Brown . The former Disney actor, who was just bagged by bounty hunters in saggy underwear on a warrant this past April, skilled a court date for drug possession last week that sparked the new warrant. TMZ reports : A clerk with the Las Vegas Justice Court tells TMZ … Orlando was supposed to appear in court Thursday for his drug possession case, but never showed up, so a judge issued an arrest warrant. TMZ broke the story … Orlando was arrested and booked for felony narcotics possession along with misdemeanor charges of drug paraphernalia and resisting arrest. Seems Orlando hasn’t learned his lesson. The last time there was a warrant out for his arrest — just 4 months ago — bounty hunters stormed into a Vegas house and dragged him out at gunpoint … in his underwear. Hopefully, the bounty hunters won’t drag Brown out in his underpants again, or at the very least he has the decency to get dressed first. — Photo: screen cap

Deportations & Orgy Allegations: Drake’s Baby Mama Sophie Brussaux Is Having The Worst Summer Ever

Source: Sophie Brussaux / Instagram Sophie Brussaux lived a relatively chill life until that fateful May 29th day when Pusha T dropped the “Story Of Adidon” diss track, exposing Drake for having a secret son.   Rumors had been swirling for months that Drizzy fathered a child with Sophie, but Push blew the lid off for the world to see. Ever since then, Sophie has had some trouble adjusting with the whole world watching. Back in May, her former agent revealed that she had recently been deported and banned from returning to the U.S. for at least five years. Is that what Pusha meant by Drake “playing border patrol”?   Now folks are saying that Drake is fighting for custody of his baby.  If that isn’t stressful enough, there’s a video making it’s rounds on the Internet of a woman (allegedly Sophie) having sex with four guys in a hotel. Look at Adonis mother. Drake and Sophie better prepare this little boy for this shameful type of stuff. this will be a long 18 years. pic.twitter.com/rAq2TryH6l — Drakeeyewitness (@drakesangelbaby) August 2, 2018   Sophie has yet to deny or confirm whether or not it’s her in the video. But Pornhub did see a spike in searches of her name this week.   Good luck for the next 18 years, Drizzy. via GIPHY

According to BuzzFeed , the VCA Oso Creek Animal Hospital and Emergency Center confirmed that Rita had ingested THC — the chemical found in marijuana — and they kept her overnight. Though the dog made it out their high spell okay, medical officials say marijuana can still be harmful to pets. According to Pet Poison Hotline , the substance is poisonous and can cause seizures, low heart rate, low blood pressure and respiratory depression. If your dog takes a dip in the herbal essence, you should call a veterinarian or Pet Poison Helpline immediately. But in the meantime, that doesn’t mean we can’t be entertained by the done dogs.
