She decided it was the perfect time to reveal she learned about Janelle Monáe ‘s sexuality from the Internet. The “Pynk” singer, who Erykah calls her 20 (her twin), came out as pansexual this year and Erykah teased that she must have not been Janelle’s type — or else Erykah would have found out sooner. Peep Erykah’s funny clip below! Janelle then took this time to reveal that Erykah was in fact one of her first crushes… Well okay then! So Erykah should have no hard feelings, right? The two have continued to remain friends and bomb collaborators ever since their track together “Q.U.E.E.N.” in 2013. The real question Erykah should have asked is when that next collab is going to happen… …we’ll wait.

Source: Handout / Getty It was nearly two years ago that a lot of people turned on Jimmy Fallon after an episode of The Tonight Show that many viewed as the normalization of a monster. Last week, Fallon revealed in an episode of The Hollywood Reporter’s podcast “Awards Season” that the 2016 gag where he rubbed Donald Trump ‘s hair and the following media backlash changed his life. Jimmy Fallon opens up about how “devastated” he was from the fallout of his 2016 Trump interview https://t.co/YkEmf23NVh — Vulture (@vulture) June 23, 2018 It looks like Trump caught wind of the news that Fallon wasn’t happy about his disowning of the incident, and of course, he had to tweet about it. He went off on the late night host demanding he, “be a man” about the situation, even though he took so much heat. . @jimmyfallon is now whimpering to all that he did the famous “hair show” with me (where he seriously messed up my hair), & that he would have now done it differently because it is said to have “humanized” me-he is taking heat. He called & said “monster ratings.” Be a man Jimmy! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 25, 2018 Jimmy Fallon is known to be non-confrontational to a fault–which is what got him in the “humanizing” incident in the first place–so many didn’t even expect him to reply, but he did so perfectly. In response to being told to be a man, Fallon announced that he would be making a donation to RAICES in Donald Trump’s name. The Refugee and Immigrant Center For Education and Legal Services is an advocacy group that has been at forefront of the fight to reunite detained undocumented immigrant families in the wake of Trump’s zero tolerance policy at the U.S.-Mexico border. In honor of the President’s tweet I’ll be making a donation to RAICES in his name. — jimmy fallon (@jimmyfallon) June 25, 2018 Jimmy might not have won back all of the viewers he upset back in 2016, but this is definitely a step in the right direction.

Source: Kevin Winter / Getty Via | HipHopDX TORONTO, CANADA – Days after Drake previewed the release of Scorpion on Instagram with a bloody photo of hockey player Tie Domi , billboards for the project started popping up in Toronto hinting at a double album. One of the billboards showcased in Yonge-Dundas Square features an owl flying down on a scorpion while the one below it says, “Changing from boy to a man.” But the ones really grasping folks’ attention have some cryptic messages to them. One billboard reads, “Don’t hit me when you hear this.” And the two hinting at a double album read, “A Side B Side” and “Is there more.” This wouldn’t be the first time Drake produced a lengthy project; More Life clocked in at 81 minutes across 22 songs and VIEWS ‘ 20 songs totaled 81 minutes.

Source: Godong / Getty A French priest straight up lost it when he was confronted with a crying baby during a baptism. In a video that was posted to YouTube on Wednesday, the priest first seems to comfort the infant to no effect. Then the priest grabs the baby’s face right before slapping him. And I’m not talking a cutesy slap. It was a slap big enough to cause shock. “Calm down,” the priest can be heard saying in the video, according to WTHR . The family was NOT here for it. Check out the video below, which has already gotten over 2 million views. Whatever spirit took over that priest, we don’t want none of that.

When an 8-year-old girl was selling water bottles outside of her mother’s home in San Francisco, this strange woman decided to call the cops. Why? Because the little girl didn’t have a permit. Even worse, when she realized she could become the next Twitter meme, she attempts to hide from the cameras. So my little cousin was selling water and didn't have a permit so this lady decided to call the cops on an 8 year old. #PermitPatty pic.twitter.com/SiL61pnAgl — Raj (@_ethiopiangold) June 23, 2018 So of course, Twitter is having a field day with her anyway. She’s been given the nickname #PermitPatty and the online roasts have been hilarious. Hit the flip for more.
