Hide Ya Wife: London Man Lists His “Used” Girlfriend On Ebay, Bid Reaches $119,000

Photo by Igor Golovniov/SOPA Images/LightRocket via Getty Images Man Pranks Wife By Listing Her On Ebay, Bids Go Over $100,000 A man in London was caught by surprise over the number of bidders that were interested in “buying” his girlfriend off of eBay. According to  CTV , Dale Leeks wanted to play a prank on his girlfriend, Kelly Greaves. During their night out, Leeks created an account on the website and started his first listing. He listed his partner of one year as a “miniature collectible” and described her a used car, stating that she made a “whining noise” plus that the “rear end leaks a but nothing that can’t be plugged.” Leeks decided to show his girlfriend the ad and all she did was laugh it off. But things didn’t end there; The couple noticed that people were interested as Leeks’ cell phone continued to go off with notifications from the app. “I thought, ‘Oh no, what have I done?” said Leeks. The advertisement ended up reaching the highest bid at a whopping $119,000 before eBay took the listing down. According to the eCommerce website’s policies, selling a human on the app is not only unethical, but completely illegal. The ad was viewed over 81,000 times and bidders who hoped for the prize hailed from from the United States, Europe, and Australia. Leeks said he was most definitely surprised by the number of interested bidders, but he continued to clarify that he would not sell his girlfriend when Greaves asked him if he thought about going through with it. He told his girlfriend, “But when it was going up to ($170,000) in a day, I said, ‘I’m not going to lie, I would have been quite sad to see you go, but it wouldn’t have been so sad ‘cause I would have been crying in my Ferrari or my Lamborghini.”

Vic Mensa…Apologizes? For Dissing The Late XXXtentacion Right In Front Of His Mother At The BET Hip Hop Awards [Video]

Splash News/Getty Vic Mensa Adresses BET Cypher Freestyle About XXXtentacion Vic Mensa apparently had some choice words for recently deceased rapper XXXtentacion during his BET Hip Hop cypher over the weekend. While his exact words remain unclear until the segment airs on BET on October 16, whatever he said about the slain rapper definitely offended some of his friends and associates…not to mention the fact that X’s own mother was seated in the audience to hear his critique of her son’s actions in life. Granted, Vic holds some deep convictions about violence against women and the intense domestic abuse charges that were brought against X by a former girlfriend while he was alive. As such, Vic chose to speak his mind during his alotted bars. To explain himself, he basically gave all of X’s rabid teen fans a “sorry, not sorry” response on what he had to say…but offered sincere condolences to the rapper’s mother for her loss, and emphasized that he was not aware that she would be in attendance. Protect women. Domestic & sexual abuse are not excusable because you have talent or you are troubled. With that said I was not aware his mother would be in attendance & I offer her my deepest condolences. However, to further prove his original point, he included a few of the…colorful retaliatory comments X’s die hard fans have been leaving for one of his associates ever since news broke that he “dared” speak ill of the rapper. this is the culture that promoting violence against women in music creates. these are messages to the director of my CHARITY IN CHICAGO. these kids are taught that this mentality is ok by their abusive heroes and normalize this shit. I CALL BS! People, particularly the young, have a tendency to idolize and blindly defend their faves regardless of WHAT information comes out about them or their actions. It’s not surprising that Vic is getting these sorts of responses to his comments, despite the fact that 98% of those clapping back have no clue what he actually said. It will be interesting to hear exactly what specifically he had to say when the show airs next week. Do you think Vic is in the right here? Splash/Getty

Tina Turner Reveals That Her Husband Was The Donor For A Life-Saving Kidney Transplant

David M. Benett/Dave Benett/Getty Images Tina Turner’s New Memoir Reveals Details Of Kidney Transplant Tina Turner‘s relationship with husband and musical partner Ike was very public, but after theirs ended in divorce, her story continued onto a different path.  In her upcoming memoir  My Love Story , the diva details what happened with her second chance at love, and how it literally saved her life in more ways than just romantically. In 1985, nearly a decade after she left Ike for the long haul, she met her current husband, Erwin Bach. By the early ’90s, the couple shared a home in Cologne, Germany, before his job required a move to Switzerland — where they reside today. Even though she turned down his first marriage proposal, they ended up tying the knot in 2013 after more than 26 years as a couple. Unfortunately for the newlyweds, Turner suffered a stroke only three short weeks after they got married. Shortly after healing from that, only a few years later in 2016, Tina Turner was diagnosed with intestinal cancer. Unpleasant side effects led Turner to choose homeopathic remedies for her illness, but unfortunately, this only caused her condition to get worse–and before long, she faced total kidney failure. In her memoir, Turner then reveals that Bach made the ultimate offering to his wife: he volunteered to donate a kidney. The operation took place in April 2017, and though it was largely a success, she still goes through her fair share of complications as her body tries to reject the new organ. “I lived through a hellish marriage that almost destroyed me, but I went on. I know that my medical adventure is far from over. But I’m still here — we’re still here, closer than we ever imagined.” She says in her memoir, according to PEOPLE . “I can look back and understand why my karma was the way it was. Good came out of bad. Joy came out of pain. And I have never been so completely happy as I am today.”

R.I.P.: Rapper Hollywood Play Shot And Killed Outside Of Club In Queens, New York

Photo by Christopher Furlong/Getty Images Rapper Hollywood Play Shot Dead In Front Of Queens Lounge A rapper was gunned down in front of a lounge in Queens, New York where he was hosting a birthday party early on Sunday morning, according to authorities. 35-year-old Frank Snyder, known by the stage name “Hollywood Play,” reportedly stepped out of Tavern Lounge on Jamaica Avenue at about 3:15 a.m. According to police, a black sedan then pulled up in front of the club, and a gunman got out and began firing toward the lounge. Snyder was shot once in the leg and once in his neck, authorities said. He was immeadiately rushed to Jamaica Hospital and there he was pronounced dead. It was not immediately clear if Hollywood Play was the intended target of the shooting, according to police, but a bartender at the lounge said that the shooter did appear to be aiming for the rapper. “They targeted him,” Tiesajah Reynolds said Sunday morning. “There was a couple other people outside. I feel like they had to wait for the right moment to get him. I don’t understand, why him? Why come after him? They had to be waiting for him.” The bartender later added that she heard a car speed away from the scene after the shots, and believed it may have been a drive-by shooting. A friend and fellow rapper who goes by the name Chedda Boss said he was absolutely stunned by the news. “When I woke up and saw [on social media] ‘RIP,’ I’m like, no, not my man Frankie. And my first thought was, damn, I hope he didn’t pass away in a car accident,” he said. “I would never have thought he’d gotten shot, because that’s not the kind of life that he lived.” Snyder was hosting a birthday party at the lounge on Saturday night before the fatal shooting, according to social media posts. “HollywoodPlay & #straightMovin presents #BringYaFriendsSaturdays,” read a post on Snyder’s Instagram prior to the celebration. Any more information on the motive or identity of the shooter is still unknown.

Elsewhere In The World: Earthquake Strikes Haiti’s Coast Leaving At Least 11 Dead

Getty Images More Than 100 Injured Following Earthquake On Haiti’s Northern Coast An earthquake struck off of the northern coast of Haiti late on Saturday. It is being reported that the quake killed at least 11 people and injured more than a hundred when several buildings collapsed in the impoverished Caribbean country, according to officials. The earthquake had a magnitude of 5.9 quake and was centered about 12 miles west-northwest of the coastal town of Port-de-Paix, the U.S. Geological Survey said. Jackson Hilaire, the police chief for the northwest region, announced earlier that at least seven people were killed and more than 100 injured in Port-de-Paix. Another four people were reported dead in and around the town of Gros-Morne further south, which includes a boy who was struck by a falling building, said mayor Jean Renel Tide. This earthquake was one of the strongest to hit Haiti since 2010, when a 7.0 magnitude quake struck near the capital, Port-au-Prince and killed tens of thousands of people. In a post on Twitter, President Jovenel Moise urged the people of Haiti to remain calm after the civil protection agency reported the latest quake had caused outbreaks of panic in northern towns following the commotion. The agency said that Port-de-Paix, Gros-Morne, the town of Chansolme and the island of Tortuga were the cities to suffer some of the worst damage across the coast. They also reported that some houses were destroyed. Le Nouvelliste newspaper said that one person in particular was killed when an auditorium collapsed in Gros-Morne and that detainees were released from a police holding cell that was damaged.The tremor also damaged the facade of a church in the town of Plaisance and a house next door collapsed, the paper said. Saturday’s quake was felt in Port-au-Prince, but initial reports via Twitter said that it had not caused major damage there.
