The reality star and his new wife Faith Evans are reportedly eyeing a yacht for their wedding. According to TMZ The Jordans want to host their family and friends to an elaborate ceremony in Miami to celebrate their recent nuptials. The new couple is considering a luxury boat that is valued at over 40 million dollars as the venue. Yes you read that correctly. The vessel is more like a cruise ship as it is 222 feet long and can accommodate over 600 guests. Apparently they had very specific questions when doing a tour of the craft which included if they could film onsite. Considering the former Bad Boy producer makes his living through reality television, their inquiry leaves many to believe the event will be a major point of their story line on an upcoming season of Love & Hip Hop or Leave It To Stevie . Faye’s new husband has a long history of owing people. Last year he avoided jail time when he agreed to a payment plan for his back child support that totaled a cool 1.3 million dollars. Even more recently the reformed creep was hit with 110K tax bill from the state of Georgia . The lovebirds tied the knot in a rush wedding as a surprise to their inner circle and fans alike in July.

Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta star Stevie J managed to avoid jail time for his hefty child support debt, but his life is still about to change forever. On Tuesday, he and on-again girlfriend Faith Evans were tweeting their love for each other. The two of them got married in a private ceremony. But there may be a little hitch in their marriage … courtesy of Joseline Hernandez. TMZ reports that Stevie J and Faith Evans applied for a marriage license in Las Vegas. The license would be good for one year, so the two could have planned their nuptials for any time before or including the beginning of summer in 2019. On Tuesday, Stevie tweeted: “I love you Faith Renee Jordan.” Faith tweeted back: “I love you back Steven Aaron Jordan.” We’re not sure if wedding vows count if they’re on Twitter, but that’s okay … There’s no mystery of when the wedding ceremony will be. TMZ quickly followed up with an update: Stevie J and Faith went through with it and got married. Apparently, Stevie and Faith held their wedding ceremony in their hotel room on Tuesday night, around 10:30 in the eventing. That was the very same day on which they filed for their marriage license in Clark County (in which Las Vegas resides). We know that it’s a little sudden — especially since it’s Stevie’s first marriage. But … it’s Vegas. (But, hey, it’s not like they just met — just over a year ago, Faith Evans and Stevie J were on the outs ) As we mentioned, this is Stevie’s first marriage. This is Faith’s third. She had been married to Todd Russaw until 2011 … and, of course, to Notorious B.I.G. Over the past year, Stevie and Faith have gone from being split to openly flirting on Leave It To Stevie . And now … they’re married. Though, to be clear, those “I love you” tweets are the closest that these two have come to making an announcement. But we mentioned that there was a twist. This marriage is off to a rough start. Why? Because Stevie’s ex, Joseline Hernandez, decided to expose some alleged texts that Stevie appears to have sent her just a month earlier. In texts from June 17, someone saved to Joseline’s phone as “A–hole,” who is implied to be Stevie J, wrote to Joseline. The text asks: “Will you marry me?” Joseline replies: “I’m actually trying to marry someone else I really like. I’m sorry. I tried it with you. I’m liking someone else a lot.” In a series of replies, Stevie is shown to have written: “Coo. Damn. I love you Joseline. You stupid little b–ch.” Joseline, clearly feeling petty, shared a screencap of this conversation on Instagram, adding: “Happy honey moon!” As they say, Joseline had time . Now, anyone with a few minutes to spare can fabricate text messages, but most people would say that it’s not worth the backlash to fabricate something personal like this. Did Stevie J really ask Joseline to marry him just a month before he and Faith tied the knot? If so, that … might not bode well for this union. View Slideshow: 15 AMAZING Moments from Love & Hip Hop

Over the past two seasons of Vanderpump Rules viewers witnessed two very perplexing inverse trends: For some reason, as James Kennedy’s behavior became even more deplorable, he somehow came to enjoy greater popularity with his castmates. For the third season in a row, Kennedy behaved abusively toward women, disrespected his relationship with his long-suffering girlfriend, forced unwanted advances on a female friend who’s made it very clear that she has no interest in him romantically, and of course, stabbed his “friends” in the back as part of his never-ending quest for more screentime. The situation was so bad that by midseason, fans were calling for Kennedy to be fired from the show. And yet, not only is he still an employee of both Bravo and Lisa Vanderpump, he’s been rewarded for his behavior with increased popularity among his older co-stars, who should really know better. All season, viewers have been warning the rest of the cast that James is sure to eventually remind them of why he was kept at arms’ length for so long, but for whatever reason, they ignored the pleas for sanity. As a result, on the Vanderpump reunion finale that aired last night, James was on good terms with the entire cast – except for Lala Kent, whom he sent running from the stage in tears. Of course, the reunion was taped several weeks ago, and change is the only constant in the lives of WeHo’s drunkest posse of ex-models. So it should come as no surprise that Jax Taylor has since seen the light and once again considers James his mortal enemy. As you may recall, the show’s latest season began with the revelation that Jax cheated on Brittany Cartwright with Faith Stowers. In the months that followed, Jax and Brittany worked hard to save their relationship, and recently, their reborn love was tested and strengthened by the death of Taylor’s father . So you can see why Jax’s infidelity might not be the couple’s favorite topic of conversation. And yet knowing all that, James decided to sing a song about it the incident in front of a packed club. “I had many one too many of the Pumptinis last night and I brought up the whole Faith thing again… over the mic,” Kennedy said during a recent podcast interview. “I was just like, ‘Oh hey, you banged Faith, remember?’ I just reminded everyone and I didn’t know Brittany was in the room at the time.” At that point, Tom Sandoval interjected and pointed out that that version of events is a bit too charitable to James: “I heard that you were like, ‘Jax and Faith! Jax and Faith!’” Sandoval said. “If Scheana said that, then maybe I did that… maybe. But I apologized this morning. I said, ‘I’m sorry’ to Jax. He’s still very angry with me,” James said, adding: “I made a little mistake last night. Perfect timing since filming starts in two weeks. I must say. You gotta keep it spicy somehow!” Of course, what James calls “spicy” others might call “the further victimization of a woman who’s already endured a tremendously difficult year.” We bet you can guess which category Jax falls into: “Brittany went in to go see him and say hi Tuesday night at SUR. He literally gave her a hug, she walked maybe four feet away, and he started rapping a song called Jax and Faith. And Brittany started bawling her eyes out,” Jax revealed on a different podcast. “Crying, embarrassed in front of everybody at SUR and she had to be escorted out. She was literally mortified.” He added: “How could you do that to somebody and literally look her in the face and start rapping about this? It’s on, and sh*t’s going to come out about you, and I’m not going to hold back.” As you can see, Jax has been tweeting about the incident in such a way that’s led fans to the conclusion that he’s planning to finally unleash the ass-whupping that James so richly deserves. When one Twitter user implored Jax to relax and reminded him that James isn’t worth going to jail for, Taylor replied, simply: “Yes, he is.” So it’s bad news for James, who may not have much time left on this earth. But it’s great news for fans of Vanderpump drama, as well as haters of generic, repetitive EDM. Watch Vanderpump Rules online to relive one seriously bonkers season.

Selena Gomez seems to be just fine with the current breakup situation. But it sounds like Justin Bieber still holding out hope … because he believes that their relationship is God’s plan . In the mean time, a report gives the scoop on how he’s coping with their split. As it turns out, there’s more to how Justin is dealing with Selena’s absence than just sleepovers with Baskin Champion . HollywoodLife reports that the Justin Bieber is taking this time to better himself, perhaps to make himself a worthier partner. “Justin has been working on himself during his time away from Selena.” And clearly, there’s more to this self-improvement plan than showing off his excessive body tattoos . “He has been going to bed early, waking up early, exercising daily, hiking, spending time with family, and writing a ton of new music.” Wow! How many of us can say that? How many of us can say all of that? Basically, it sounds like he’s trying to not totally screw things up with Selena this time around. Well, not more than things are already screwed up. “His goal has been to stay out of trouble and be patient while Selena figures things out.” That sounds smart. Maybe he really is growing up and maturing.. “It’s hard, ’cause he really loves her a lot.” Well, Selena is talented, beautiful, and well-spoken. There are plenty of reasons to love her. “But as long as he is staying busy and productive, he is really happy.” It almost sounds like all of this work that he’s reportedly doing to improve himself is also functioning as a distraction from the loneliness of once again living a Selena-less life. Hmmm. Overall, though, the report says that Justin believes that things will work out for him and Selena. That it’s inevitable and their destiny. “He has his faith.” Remember, Justin Bieber canceled his tour last year because he believed that God wanted him to. He’s super serious when it comes to his religious beliefs. “And Justin believes strongly that love conquers all.” Selena’s the one who grew to fame as a Disney star, but it sounds like the Biebs sees life as a Disney movie. In which he is the prince . But as confident as Justin reportedly is that Selena will take him back, this source says that he’s prepared to accept it if God decides on a different course for his life. “And, with or without Selena, everything will work out the way it is supposed to.” That sounds healthy. But … is Selena actually going to go back to Justin? Honestly, most people didn’t expect her to take him back in 2017. But that happened … much to her mother’s chagrin. Sure, Selena and The Weeknd had split. And yes, Selena had survived a life-threatening ordeal thanks to a kidney transplant. Sometimes, when people have near-death experiences, they start rethinking their choices. But was that behind Selena’s decision to date Bieber again? Or, as some believe, was it that she wanted to give him a chance, now that he was sober and seemed to be in a better place than he had been during their relationship. But given that Selena and Justin broke up again , reportedly after a huge fight, it sounds like the Biebs hadn’t changed as much as Selena had hoped. Which means that Justin might need to accept that his life is going to go in a different direction. In the mean time … this report says that he’s writing new music. Does this mean that he believes that God has decided that it’s okay for him to one day go back on tour? Only time will tell.

I know I like to talk a lot of trash about the state of the modeling industry, and how it’s practically 90% rich kid wannabes and professional Insta-hotties these days, but then I see something like this new lingerie photoshoot from a genuine supermodel like Emily Ratajkowski and it totally restores my faith in this business. And the fire in my pants region. Yow.
D uring the Alabama U.S. Senate race, Roy Moore ‘s most solid base was evangelicals, who voted for Moore at an astounding 80 percent. This is despite being an accused pedophile. However, when people discuss the Christian vote, they often leave out an important factor — race. According to The Washington Post , Black Christians voted for Doug Jones at 95 percent, which is on par with the overall Black vote in Alabama (96 percent). Black evangelicals not voting for Moore proves these Christians do not have blind faith and a shift from what we saw in the early 2000s. In 2004, President Bush got a surprising 11 percent of the Black vote, partly because he appealed to Black Christians. Republicans often reached out to Black Christians to block the advancements of LGBT people. Thankfully, times have changed. For example, The New York Times featured 24-year-old divinity student Devon Crawford , who said Moore “sanctifies the truth-making power of White men” and was “really just a masquerade for White supremacy.” He advocated for Doug Jones to win. The Washington Post also reports that Black Christians do not fall for hot button topics like LGBT rights and abortion, “Race generally trumps religion in Alabama overall as a dividing line among voters — and that is certainly true among African American voters.” Clearly, evangelicals standing by Moore is not about their faith, otherwise Black Christians would be on his side as well. White evangelicals supporting Moore was pure, racist tribalism. SOURCE: The Washington Post SEE ALSO: Will Alabama’s Black Voters Turnout For Crucial Senate Race?
