Lil Scrappy On Headline Heat Lil Scrappy has been in our lives for over 15 years now, repping his beloved city of Atlanta as a rapper and reality tv star. But oddly enough, we don’t usually get to hear his side of the story when it comes to some of the drama he encounters in on a daily basis, that tends to go public. The self-proclaimed Prince Of The South stopped by to clear up some of the wildest headlines BOSSIP has written about him — and it’s safe to say he had some things to get off his chest. Scrapp dished on everything from beef with baby mama Erica Dixon , to his tragic car accident that almost took his life. The Love & Hip Hop star also shared news about his upcoming show with wife Bambi, coming soon to a TV near you. Check out the video above to see what else Scrappy had to say.

Seemingly frightened, he scampered to Twitter to announce the threats that were immediately shut down by Nicki’s fiercely loyal stan army. At one point, he posts receipts of her DMs that appear legit while making an already sketchy situation even sketchier. Seriously, why would he lie? But, then again, are we 100% sure he wouldn’t lie? “Let me show you who Nicki really is. I just want to show who these motherf*ckers are ’cause this is who they are,” whined Akademiks on his live stream (see for yourself at the 4:58 mark) . “This is Nicki, ‘You been mad since I made a joke about you with Joe [Budden] on my show. The people you rep won’t be able to stop your jaw from getting broken. I know too much about your family for you to be playing with me, you hoe azz rat.’” Hmm, that definitely isn’t as serious as Akademiks made it seem but it’s still a threat that, when dropped on Twitter, sparked a hilariously petty explosion of tweets across the never-boring app. Akademiks posting the dms like we care pic.twitter.com/xieHYVKzID — Queen Lay (@__iamlay) September 10, 2019 Peep the hilarious Twitter chaos over Akademiks’s wild claims on the flip.
Last month, Amy Duggar posted photos from her baby shower , and fans were quick to point out that something seemed seriously amiss. Though it appeared to be a well-attended affair, it looked as though none of Amy’s famous cousins were in attendance. As you can see, the first pic posted by Amt featured several close friends, but no Counting On cast members. Because everything the Duggars do is dissected within an inch of its life these days, Amy’s comments section quickly exploded with inquiries as to her cousins’ whereabouts. She didn’t employ the usual Duggar strategy of simply ignoring the comments entirely. But she also didn’t provide an in-depth explanation of why Jill, Jessa, and company were missing from her first pics. Instead, Amy simply posted a pair of new photos, including the one above, proof positive that a wide array of Jim Bob’s daughters were in attendance. It seems it was a joyous afternoon for all in attendance, especially Amy, who — while she’s admittedly terrified of giving birth — is said to be absolutely thrilled with the prospect of welcoming her first child. But as Amy’s second pic reminds us, the afternoon was bittersweet for one attendee. Joy-Anna Duggar suffered a miscarriage back in July, and thus, was not included in a photo that featured all of the Duggar women who are currently pregnant. When one fan inquired as to Joy’s absence, Anna explained that her cousin was forced to “leave early.” She did not provide a reason for the premature departure, but did praise Joy-Anna’s strength. “She is a beautiful person and is so strong,” Anna replied. “We all love her so much!” Many concluded that Joy-Anna decided to take off early as attending a baby shower so soon after her miscarriage proved to be more than she could handle emotionally. We may never know for sure, but it’s not hard to see how the afternoon might have been a profoundly difficult one for the 21-year-old. While insiders say Joy-Anna is handling her grief well with the help of her faith, we’re sure this remains an intensely painful time in her young life. We wish Joy and her husband, Austin Forsyth, all the best. View Slideshow: The Duggars: Who’s Courting? Pregnant? Next In Line? [THE UPDATES KEEP COMING!]
Meghan Markle has found herself in the hot seat once again. And this time it is all because she is too dang good of a friend! (seriously) After the Duchess made a secret getaway to New York City to watch her bestie Serena Williams play in the US Open, sources have now confirmed that the royals are royally pissed . According to Radar Online, the weekend of the Tennis Championship also happened to fall on the royal family’s Highland Games event at Balmoral Castle. Which Meghan was apparently “too busy” for, even though it was earlier reported by the Mail On Sunday that she and Prince Harry were set to attend the event. Hmm.. *sips tea.* Markle tried her best to keep her recent American travels on the DL as she quietly flew solo to NYC on Friday, successfully leaving on Sunday with little to no street paparazzi interferences, according to Page Six . A royal insider also shared that after Meghan’s talk-of-the-town baby shower , she learned her lesson. “After all the big fanfare of her [last NYC] trip for her two-day baby shower, where paparazzi followerd her every move and staked out The Mark Hotel to catch Meghan, her famous friends, and the array of gifts arriving, it seems Meghan has learned her lesson.” The poor girl just wanted to cheer on her bestie without being scrutinized! “She was in New York to support Serena, and catch up with a few other old friends, but was determined to keep everything low-key and as under-the-radar as possible,” shared the source. Unfortunately, it’s really not that possible. Instead, the whole world now knows that Meghan left baby Archie at home, boarded a (yep, commercial!) plane , took to the big apple, and in the royal’s minds she chose, once again, her famous friends over them. Dun, dun, dun… Scotland’s Braemar Gathering for the Highland Games — which includes a hammer throw and tug of war — has taken place for almost nine hundred years and it’s the royal family’s job to make an annual appearance to show their support to the competitors. They also take the time to enjoy a nice family vacay in Scotland while at the games. This event is an old-fashioned royal protocol and, once again, Meghan would rather not . And we do NOT blame her. While the Queen, her son Prince Charles and his wife Camilla, and other royals attended the event, Meghan and Harry’s spokesperson said they were “too busy” and Archie, at four months, was still “too young” to make the trip. Which only lasts 1 hour in flight duration… we’re seriously wondering what this couple will use to get out of wretched family events when Archie is too old to use as an excuse . The new mom, however, took the 3,500-mile flight to NY to sit in the stands to support her pal… which she did, in a very cute denim dress. Serena ended up losing the match to Bianca Andreescu of Canada, who walked away with the $3.85 million prize, but we’re sure it was still more entertaining than the ancient games taking place back in Europe. According to a source from The Mail on Sunday, the Queen felt “hurt” by Meghan’s absence as she intended to bring together her friends and family. And on top of her disappointment, the publication shared that the Queen is also “baffled” by Meghan and Harry’s lack of protocol. Yikes . To have the Queen of England “hurt” and/or “baffled” by you sounds like easily one of the most horrifying things, but on behalf of the Duchess, we’re proud of her for supporting her friend and for holding on to her life. Markle has been blasted too many times to count, from the British press dubbing her a diva to claims that she appears to be more comfortable hanging out with her celebrity friends than doing her royal duties. We wouldn’t blame her if she decided to move to another kingdom far, far away … Manhattan perhaps? View Slideshow: Meghan Markle: 19 Cruelest Things Her Own Family Has Said About the Duchess
Grey's Anatomy Season 16 will kick off on September 26 on ABC — and, based on the official trailer featured here, the premiere will aim to answer two key questions: What is Meredith doing picking up garage? Is Jackson alive?!? Viewers do basically know the reasoning behind that first query, of course. Meredith, Alex and Richard were all fired to close out Season 15 and Meredith will be performing her court-mandated community service when we see her again this fall. Hence the tagline orange is the new grey that flashes across the screen of this preview. Later in this sneak peek, Bailey (Chandra Wilson) is seen telling other employees that Meredith, Alex Karev (Justin Chambers), and Richard Weber (James Pickens Jr.) no longer work at the hospital due to “criminal activity.” The reactions are priceless. Will Meredith end up working as a doctor once again in the near future? We'd have to imagine. But we're very curious just how she gets her old job back. Elsewhere, the intense promo also portends an ominous outcome to the Disappearance of Jackson Avery. Where is he? Could he actually be dead and gone? It's conceivable, considering the history of this show and how it's unafraid to kill off a series regular. But, SPOILER ALERT, Jesse Williams recently re-upped with the series for two more years. So we think everything is gonna end up being okay for Jackson. He'll survive, at the very least. Showrunner Krista Vernoff previously told TV Line that this wildly anticipated premiere will pick “moments from where we left off” in the Season 15 finale, with “all of the lingering” cliffhangers being addressed “pretty immediately.” That is, Meredith, Richard and Alex receiving pink slips… DeLuca wearing a prison jumpsuit … and Jackson vanishing into thin air/thick fog. Shortly thereafter, however, the episode “will span a little bit of time over the course of the hour.” Color us intrigued. Check out the slideshow above if you're in the mood for a few Grey's Anatomy spoilers and remember: The beloved drama returns on Thursday, September 26 at 8/7c on ABC. Check out this fun teaser now!
Things just keep getting worse for Todd Chrisley and family. In August, it was revealed that Chrisley has been indicted for tax evasion and faces up to 30 years in prison. Chrisley pled not guilty and is currently gearing up for the legal battle of his lifetime. Meanwhile, all around him, his personal life is crumbling as fans learn that the wholesome domestic life Chrisley presented on his reality show was nothing but a facade. In addition to the shocking revelation that Lindsie Chrisley was extorted by her father over a sex tape she made years prior, there’s been a great deal of concern for Kyle Chrisley, who, until recently was estranged from his father. Last week, Kyle was hospitalized , and his father took to Instagram to assure fans that all was well. “NOT TODAY SATAN, NOT TODAY… God shows up and shows out, now won’t he do it?” Chrisley captioned the above photo. “Kyle is great and we are back to the grind ..” he added. Todd didn’t offer any specifics as to the cause of Kyle’s hospitalization, but a family spokesperson claimed he experienced a bad reaction to prescribed medications. “He had an adverse reaction to his medication, but as you can see from the photo his father posted on Instagram, he is doing great,” read the official statement. As it turns out, the situation was a bit more complicated than that. Kyle appeared on his family’s podcast this week and revealed that he had been hospitalized after attempting to take his own life. To be fair, the spokesperson wasn’t lying, exactly, as Kyle says the suicide attempt was a result of a bad reaction to his psych meds: “I take medication and I had a bad side effect to it and I tried to take my own life” Kyle said. “With the meds, I got all kinds of crazy thinking going on.” It’s been a hard road for Kyle, who was arrested for possession of methamphetamine back in May. After years of estrangement, however, Kyle now says he has reconciled with his father and believes Todd is innocent of the charges against him. “I’m telling you now, with a clear mind, my mom and dad have done nothing wrong! Today, I am sober. I am working, and I am at a good place in my life,” Kyle recently wrote on Facebook. The comment stands in sharp contrast to a 2018 Good Morning America interview, in which Kyle stated that his father boasts about not paying taxes. As for Todd’s view of his legal future, insiders tell Radar Online that the reality star believes he will be cleared of all charges. “Todd truly believes that he is going to get out of all these charges and walk away with a slap on the wrist” a source tells the site. “He has convinced his children that this is the case, and his wife too.” We’ll have further updates on this developing story as more information becomes available.

Back on January 15, Mike Sorrentino turned himself over to authorities to begin serving an eight-month sentence for tax evasion. At the time of his conviction, Mike’s loved ones were vocal in their belief felt that the judge in his case had decided to “make an example” of the Jersey Shore star by doling out an unusually harsh punishment. Now, many feel prison authorities are doing the same by holding Sorrentino for the entirety of his sentence, which is unusual for well-behaved, first-time offenders, particularly in cases of non-violent crimes. (While it’s true that federal convicts generally serve a greater portion of their sentence than those convicted of state offenses, legal experts expected the 37-year-old to be released in early August.) Whatever the reason, Mike has served the vast majority of his sentence. But now, the darkest chapter of his life is soon to come to an end, and insiders say he’s gearing to be released as early as this weekend. And naturally, his family, friends, and Shore housemates will be on hand for a party in the Sitch’s honor. “Everyone’s planning on seeing him right away and there’s a big celebration being planned for when he gets out with all of his family and friends,” one insider tells Hollywood Life. Of course, no one has missed Mike more than his wife, Lauren Pesce. Sorrentino and Pesce were married in November but only got to enjoy a few weeks of married life before he was forced to begin his sentence. “Lauren is so excited to have Mike back with her full-time,” says the source. “She’s missed him terribly, but has been doing great. They’ve both been doing the best they can while Mike is away,” the insider adds. “The couple plans to spend a lot of time together and just be with one another since they had to be apart right after getting married.” Though he was locked up while the episode was filming, Mike made a phone cameo on Thursday night’s episode of Jersey Shore . He promised Lauren that they would get down to the business of making “a million babies” when he gets released, and it seems that’s still the plan. “They absolutely want to have a baby sooner rather than later,” says the source. Insiders say Mike will be released during the day, and after a 24-hour period of “supervised release,” he’ll take up residence in a halfway house. While Sorrentino has never denied committing the crimes of which he was accused, he’s paid his debt to society, and his transformation over the past two years has been truly remarkable to witness. We wish him all the best in his new life as a free man. View Slideshow: Mike Sorrentino in Prison: Star’s Sad Farewell to Freedom, New Life Behind Bars, Conjugal Visit “Situation” Revealed [UPDATED]
Very sad news today out of the reality television universe: Chris March, a popular contestant who competed on Season 4 of Project Runway, died on Thursday of a heart attack. He was 56 years old. Bravo personality and producer Andy Cohen mourned the loss of March in a heartfelt Instagram post, which read a follows: “This is how I’m going to remember Chris March, dressed as Lisa Vanderpump as I wear a Giggy costume he made for one of our first Halloween specials. Chris was a finalist on Season 4 of Project Runway. He designed for everyone from Beyoncé, Gaga, Madonna, Meryl, Prince and many legendary downtown drag queens (And Sonja Morgan!). He had a big booming laugh; he was a joy and delight. #RIP. According to TMZ, which broke this tragic news, March had been in and out of the hospital for the past year or so. He had been battling some pretty serious health problems — and yet the fatal heart attack came as a surprise to his doctors and loved ones. He was even designing dresses all the way up until the end. Along with making it to the finals on Season 4, March also appeared on Project Runway All Stars and had his own show on Bravo called “Mad Fashion.” Moreover, he made cameos on The Real Housewives of New York City, helping find elaborate costumes for Sonja Morgan. In 2017, March suffered an almost-fatal fall in his apartment that left him in a coma for the subsequent two months. A GoFundMe was launched on the reality star’s behalf to help offset the monetary challenges of his ongoing medical treatments. After this hospitalization, March entered a nursing facility. “I came close to death many times — they called my family and they were told if they wanted to say goodbye to come right away,” he said of the major mishap. Throughout his impressive career, March designed for Madonna, Lady Gaga, Jennifer Coolidge, Beyonce and Meryl Streep. He was responsible for the latter’s 2010 Golden Globe and Oscars ensembles. Just a few months ago, March shared an update on his health, revealing he had “run into several setbacks in my recovery.” As he described on the GoFundMe: “I am also in need of leg braces, specialized physical therapy, a hearing aid, and a new living arrangement. “Where I am now is unbearable and makes me anxious and depressed every day. I have considered suicide many times. I have tried my best to make strides.” March’s supporters raised nearly $60,000 of his $100,000 goal after his accident. We send our condolences to Chris March’s friends, family members and loved ones. May he rest in peace. View Slideshow: The Most Shocking Reality Star Deaths: Gone, But Not Forgotten
