The biggest boss went on and on during a recent interview with Maxim, gushing over Lira and detailing how he popped the big question — or in this case, the executive decision. Via Maxim : So how did you propose to your girlfriend? You know, I just told her she’s mine. She ain’t going nowhere. That’s the way a boss does it. Yeah, yeah! That’s the way a boss does it. You’re right. Like, “Check this out. This is what it is. I forgot to tell you. Oh yeah, you’re locked in for life. Let’s go to dinner.” How romantical… Rick also says that he’s happy with Lira and her “loyalty” to the boss deserves to be rewarded… I’m happy! And I think that’s what it’s all about — happiness, being happy. Did I see this? I may not have seen this, but it came to fruition. That’s one thing that’s one of the biggest characteristics of being a boss, which is knowing what you want. And when you know what you want, you go get that. …hopefully that will be a good example for a lot of youngsters to realize that when you’re dealing with that special woman, loyalty has to be rewarded.

Blac Chyna Still Claims Future Blac Chyna isn’t going to let a little thing like getting publicly curved by the man she’s dating block her happiness! After she revealed some fresh ink marking her as Future’s main lil one the other day, Future made a point to publicly announce that he wasn’t claiming anyone at the moment — and the social media roast of Blac Chyna began right on schedule. But apparently Chyna’s just rolling with the punches on this one. A source close to the action says that regardless of the fact that Future chose the dirty over her…Chyna’s still claiming Freebands because she knows where he lays his head at night — at least on Saturdays and Sundays… Via TMZ : Blac Chyna doesn’t care if Future’s telling the world — and chicks everywhere — he’s single … ’cause she’s just happy to be ONE of the women he’s tapping. Sources close to Chyna tell TMZ Future’s actions speak louder than his “I’m single” tweet, since she’s with him every weekend. Yes, she thinks Future’s announcement was a low-blow, but she still considers him “her man.” That attitude might explain why she went ahead and got Future’s name tattooed on her hand … even though she’s just one of many in his stable. Apparently being one of many is fine with Chyna, as long as she knows she’s in the top spot. The chatterbox source ALSO shared some info with HollywoodLife on the matter: “Chyna’s just trying to get in where she fits in when it comes to Future. She loves him and knows exactly what type of relationship she’s got herself into, and she’s cool with it. She knows that he’s out there doing what he does. But the fact of the matter is as long as he treats her well, gives her money and spoils King rotten, she’s fine with that. Say what you want about Chyna but she’s in this relationship for the long run. At the end of the day, she knows where Future is, what he’s doing and who he’s screwing. She doesn’t think he’s a cheater at all. When it’s all said and done, he’s coming home to her. He’s paying her bills and as long as momma is a kept woman, the relationship with Future will be golden.” We guess being the most famous chick Future is messing with counts for something in her mind?? Hey, if she likes it we love it. Besides, that tattoo is still healing…she kind of has to stick to her guns right now. Instagram
Employees Tell Cops They Were Uncomfortable Letting Henson Into Rolex Store John Henson detailed his experience getting racially profiled last week after employees at a Milwaukee Rolex wouldn’t let him in the store because he is Black. However, the store claims it was all a big unfortunate misunderstanding, stemming from an unrelated situation that occurred a few days before Henson arrived to buy his first Rolex watch. Apparently the car that Henson arrived in looked similar to one that had “cased” the store over the weekend. And John made the “mistake” of calling the store before arrival to double check what their hours were before he made his purchase. Via Deadspin : The audio starts with a call from Friday, Oct. 16, with a woman saying the store had gotten “a couple suspicious phone calls” and would like an officer to come and sit in front of the store until it closes. The dispatcher asked the woman to describe the calls and she said ,“They’re just asking about what time we’re gonna close and they just didn’t sound like they were legitimate customers.” The audio picks up again on Monday, Oct. 19, the day that Henson said he was profiled. In this call, the woman tells dispatch, “We had some suspects Friday. They had stolen plates on their cars. The officer told us if they came back we were supposed to call again. They’re at our front door now, and we’re not letting them in.” Take a listen to the call. Do you hear racism…or reasonable caution? Hmmm…it sounds like the shop worker would have been nervous about just about any Black man showing up to her place of employment after whatever happened Friday. SMH. Instagram
August Alsina Has Family Drama On Instagram August Alsina tends to have just a bit more drama than the average artist. Now the R&B crooner is revealing that members of his own family may be against him. August posted a screen-cap of a very one-sided conversation he had with a cousin of his…where he was called everything but a child of God, threatened with violence, and even accused of having his brother killed years ago: Naturally, this made August’s pissed-off alleged cousin even more upset, because now not only had August somehow insulted their aunt, but aired out their family turmoil for the whole world on social media. Our friends over at Baller Alert caught this snap from his private IG: Wow. Things can REALLY get nasty between family members…but this seems next level. Now we’re really wondering what words were exchanged between August and this aunt. And WHERE are these accusations of him having his brother murdered coming from??? Instagram
Harry Belafonte and Jay Z Settle Differences Harry Belafonte famously criticized The Carters for failing to acknowledge and speak out against social injustices. Jay Z snapped back saying that his mere presence was his activism, and even called Belafonte a “fail” in one of his tracks after the incident. Well it seems all fences have been mended, as Hov was spotted attending a chat about social justice that Belafonte hosted alongside Usher, even after suffering a minor stroke. Via PageSix : Legend Harry Belafonte, 88, participated in a Q&A on “music and social injustice” with Usher on Friday, despite having suffered a seizure a night earlier. Spies said Jay Z secretly turned up and “was backstage and spoke with Belafonte and Usher for a long time . . . Then he sat in the audience for the event.” Belafonte and Jay Z had a beef beginning in 2012 when the older entertainer said, “I think one of the great abuses of this modern time is that we should have had such high-profile artists, powerful celebrities. But they have turned their back on social responsibility. That goes for Jay Z and Beyoncé, for example.” Jay Z fired back in 2013, “This is going to sound arrogant, but my presence is charity. Just who I am. Just like Obama’s is.” He even dissed Belafonte in a song, saying, “Mr. Day-O, major fail.” But it seems the two have finally buried the hatchet. Nice to see them squashing the issues they had! Looks like Jay finally saw his side of the argument… SplashNews
Glen Rice, Jr. Shot In Gunfight At Scales 925 A shootout broke out after a heated argument on the patio of TI’s Scales 925 restaurant on Sunday night…and a former ball-player got caught in the fray in possession of a large amount of weed and cash. Via TMZ : The man who was shot in the leg at T.I.’s Atlanta restaurant is former NBA player Glen Rice Jr. — son of Glen Rice. The shooting went down outside Scales 925 on Sunday night. According to cops, the incident started inside the restaurant on an upper deck patio … where a group of 5 or 6 men started arguing. Staffers threw the men out, but police say the fight continued in the parking lot … and that’s where one man in a red shirt whipped out a handgun and shot the victim once in the leg. Cops say they have footage showing Rice running from the scene of the crime and ditching a gun by throwing it on a stairwell. Rice was shown on footage getting into a Porsche and leaving the scene. Police responded and pulled over the Porsche and found Rice Jr. bleeding from the leg — while in possession of 240 grams of marijuana and $6,000 in cash. He’s been charged with reckless conduct and possession of weed. Yikes…was he selling the weed or buying all that? SMH. Sounds like someone will be spending time in jail once he leaves the hospital…
