Tristan Thompson: Planning a Tell-All Interview to Dunk on Khloe?!?

Khloe Kardashian dumped Tristan Thompson after his secret affair with Jordyn Woods stopped being a secret. Now that he’s no longer “tied down,” he apparently feels free to tell all about Khloe and their relationship. After everything that he’s done, is Tristan really going to slam Khloe like this? Tristan Thompson’s first response to claims that he was caught hooking up with Jordyn Woods was to tweet that it was “fake news.” Obviously, that didn’t work — and he’s been pretty quiet since then. RadarOnline reports that Tristan doesn’t plan to stay silent. In fact, he apparently wants to get a lot off of his chest about his now-broken relationship. “He’s kept a dignified silence this whole time,” the insider characterizes. “But,” the source continues, Tristan “doesn’t see a reason to do that any longer.” “If Khloe wants to trash-talk him,” the insider says. “Then he’ll hit right back.” One wonders what negative things Tristan could possibly say about her. Especially since he was apparently cheating on her at each and every opportunity. “But,” the source notes. “If she keeps things civil he’ll play nice.” “And,” the insider adds, Tristan will “talk about the positive aspects of their relationship.” Again, we wonder what possible moral high ground Tristan could believe that he has. Regardless, though, he’s not under a gag order and he’s not planning to act like it. “But he’s damned if he’s staying quiet, that’s for sure,” the source concludes. Whether Tristan praises Khloe or tries to drag her name through the mud, we’ll say this much: It could make for some very interesting reading. The Kardashians tend to cultivate relationships with people whom they trust. It’s a rare treat to hear someone willing to tell all about their encounters with the famous family. That said, we won’t hold our breath for Tristan to actually throw anyone under the bus. First of all, this report — enthralling though it may be — is unconfirmed. Second of all, Khloe is True’s mom. Tristan probably doesn’t want to pick any battles with her (or worse, with Kris). As we have mentioned before, Tristan Thompson is a young, attractive athlete. He could absolutely find a girlfriend or wife who is happy to look the other way when he has hookups and threeways. Plenty of people have open relationships or open marriages. Some even have one-sidedly open romances. But that is not Khloe. She wanted a loyal, monogamous boyfriend. And that’s not what she got. We hope that Tristan would consider the damage that he has already done before he considers lashing out in an interview. Tristan didn’t just screw things up with Khloe. True is nearly a year old. That is old enough to notice when things change between adults. Tristan also played homewrecker because his (latest) affair was with Kylie’s BFF, Jordyn Woods. Now Jordyn is cut off from people she’s considered family for years. She had to move out of Kylie’s guest house. Tristan could have at least had the courtesy to not bang Khloe’s sister’s bestie. We’re not saying that Jordyn is blameless in this — but we will say that some would argue that Jordyn did Khloe a favor. Who knows how long Khloe would have stuck with Tristan if this hadn’t gone down, you know? View Slideshow: Khloe Kardashian Shades Jordyn Woods, Puts on Brave Face for the Press

Queen Latifah To Create Affordable Housing Complex In Newark

See original here:

Q ueen Latifah has broken barriers in both the music and entertainment industries and now she plans on doing the same in real estate. In an effort to level the playing field when it comes to housing equity in her hometown of Newark, the Star actress is creating an affordable housing complex in the city, NJ.com reported. Queen Latifah is coming home to Newark and building $14M worth of new housing https://t.co/GhP6SbZqLf pic.twitter.com/OxI5mwPVBp — NJ.com (@njdotcom) February 21, 2019 The project—which is reportedly going to cost $14 million—will be a community of multi-family townhouses, the news outlet writes. The homes—which will be located on Springfield Ave. and South 17th Street—will include 20 three-family townhomes and an additional mix-use building that will have 16 units. The mix-use building will feature a fitness center and commercial space that will be used by nonprofit organizations. 60 of the units will be market rate starting with a price of $1,800 and 16 of the units will be affordable and based on an individual’s income. The project is being led by BlueSugar Corporation—where Latifah serves as co-president—and GonSosa Development. BlueSugar Corporation has been on a mission to revitalize struggling neighborhoods across the country and GonSosa Development has reconstructed and developed over 1,000 units. There is a need for affordable housing in Newark and those who are involved in the project are excited about making change. “They understand how difficult it is to make ends meet for many residents and want to be part of the solution. They remain dedicated to making life better in communities like Newark,” said Cristina Pinzon who serves as a spokeswoman for the developers. Like other cities across the country, Newark is experiencing an affordability crisis where many longtime residents are at risk of being displaced due to gentrification. News about Queen Latifah’s plans comes nearly a month after NFL star Marshawn Lynch shared that he was going to purchase real estate in his hometown of Oakland so that people who have lived in the community for decades wouldn’t be pushed out.

Khloe Kardashian: People Are So "F-cked Up," You Guys

Khloe Kardashian has posted three new messages on Instagram. And she clearly doesn’t care at all at this point about being subtle. Each quote is very obviously directed at Tristan Thompson, Jordyn Woods and the disgusting way they hooked up last week while Tristan was still in a relationship with Khloe. You must know the story by now, right? Kardashian and Thompson were maybe on the outs, but still very much an item this past Sunday night… … when the ever-horny basketball player invited Kylie Jenner’s best friend over to his house, where the two proceeded to flirt and make out (at the minimum), according to multiple sources. Khloe confronted both Thompson and Woods about the alleged spit swap and then finally wised up, kicking Thompson to the curb once and for all. Kardashian then made a public appearance on Wednesday and seemingly hurled some shade at Woods online. But she has left no doubt now that this is exactly what she has done. FIRST, via a passage that seems to be taken from an inspirational calendar of some kind, Khloe has written on her Instagram Story: Don’t let shame keep you from asking for the support you want. Suffering is done in silence, end it with speaking up. Everyone has a dark chapter. Make your shadows go away by shining light on yours. Find the encouragement and the strength needed to face the sun. Remember clouds are always temporary. Believe it gets better. NEXT, she kept things short, simple and pointed by writing: We have to accept that some people are really fucked up and it’s not our job to heal them. Because Khloe stuck with Tristan after his first cheating scandal (which took place while she was pregnant!), it’s safe to assume she’s mostly talking about Thompson here. But the description fits Woods just as well, wouldn’t you say? THIRD, Khloe got all deep and concluded: The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss and have found their way out of the depths. These people have an appreciation, a sensitivity and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen. This seems like a terrific attitude for Khloe to take in the face of heartbreak and humiliation. She will hopefully use this to evolve as a person and not to grow ugly or bitter. Thompson, for his part, Tweeted “FAKE NEWS” after this story first went viral. But he then deleted that lame message and has not commented since. Woods, meanwhile, attended the launch party for her fake eyelash brand on Thursday night (yes, this is a thing that exists) and made a reference to the scandal by simply telling those in attendance : “Through everything that’s been going on, you know it’s been real, and Eylure has been super real.” We can understand why Jordyn felt a need to promote this accessory line, however, instead of just hiding out and praying the storm somehow soon passes: Kylie is about to cut her the heck off, if she hasn’t already — and Woods will soon need the money.

Absolutely No One Is Safe: The Pettiest Tweets From Black History Month So Far

Source: Adene Sanchez / Getty Black History Month has been a lot. We need a do over…but in the meantime, these were some of the craziest moments and pettiest reactions of the month so far. To kick things off, 21 Savage was arrested by ICE after he spoke out against some of their practices in his song “A Lot.” Obviously, we all wanted to see 21 safe and free to stay in the United States with his family—but when the nation found out that the most ATL person we’ve ever known was actually born in London, pettiness about him possibly having a British accent and more ensued. Click here to see who folks say “snitched.” Liam Neeson randomly admitted to wanting to kill a Black man…any Black man…in order to get revenge for a friend who claimed she was rape by a Black guy. He admitted to actively looking for Black men, hoping for some sort of an altercation…and while some folks, gave him props for admitting to his “past” racism, most didn’t let him off that easily and/or had petty jokes for days. Since we not fucking with Liam Neeson anymore put me in the next Taken ima find Jay Z 92 bricks. — Vince Staples (@vincestaples) February 11, 2019 I'm a bit late. All the good Liam Neeson jokes are…Taken. — Aatif Nawaz (@AatifNawaz) February 6, 2019 On another note, is it just us or has it been feeling more like blackface month? Gucci, Moncler, AND Prada were all blasted for obviously racist designs that were all blatantly offensive. Then, to top it off, Burberry had a model wear a “noose hoodie” while walking the runway for London Fashion Week. While many of us instantly decided these designers were #canceled, Floyd Mayweather—in all his ignorance and pettiness—decided to throw on head-to-toe Gucci , and hit Instagram to say “People boycott for trend but turn around and still shop at H&M and watch the NFL.” 50 Cent made fun of his reading ability once more and Twitter had a blast with it all. 50 Cent has responded to Floyd Mayweather’s comments pic.twitter.com/PBjUQeJGTw — Quake (@QuakeGW) February 15, 2019 People also thought it was pretty interesting that Nicki Minaj dropped her own remix to Blueface’s viral hit “Thotiana,” even though the West Coast rapper’s remix with Cardi B was on its way . Now that Cardi’s version has arrived, the debate on who’s is better has been never-ending. But overall it seems like the internet is fed up with Nicki’s…creative choices. I love this Thotiana Remix, Cardi B verse is heat on it, Blueface got bodied lmao. Nicki Minaj take notes, you could freestyle without having to rhyme IANA with IANA. — Hip-hop bigger than any artist (@TopHipHopPolls) February 17, 2019 On February 10, Will Smith was the butt of some hilarious jokes after unveiling his genie look in the upcoming live-action adaptation of Disney’s Aladdin . Reassuring petty fans that he would, in fact, be blue he posted a sneak peek from the movie—but people were highly dissatisfied with the end result. “Should he look like the genie or like Will Smith?” “Yes.” pic.twitter.com/54sRUKXiRB — American Antony Santos (@TheMikeTre) February 11, 2019 The Grammys also went down on February 10. Due to being locked up by ICE, 21 Savage wasn’t able to hit the stage for his scheduled performance with Post Malone…so fans were eager to see if Post would at least shout 21 out—but nope. In fact, Childish Gambino producer Ludwig Goransson was the only person to shout 21 out the entire night. This ain’t a petty tweet, it’s simply facts. Ludwig Goransson gives the night's only real 21 Savage shoutout 3 and a half hours into the show. — Craig Bro Dude (@CraigSJ) February 11, 2019 But there was more…Cardi B and Offset confirmed their obvious reunion… but folks are kind of tired of Offset , Kylie Jenner didn’t look her best and people pointed it out all night, Anita Baker didn’t seem pleased with the Aretha Franklin tribute, and for some reason Jennifer Lopez did the Motown tribute…which literally confused everyone. Also Cardi winning a Grammy had everyone on their pettiest behavior (including, BET unfortunately). ….. Shaking my head. https://t.co/u06PUk6Tsq — Anita Baker (@IAMANITABAKER) February 11, 2019 I will never recover from that Jennifer Lopez Motown tribute at the Grammys or this Mariah Carey quote. pic.twitter.com/TC4boZHCB3 — GirlTyler (@sheistyler) February 13, 2019 Cardi B isn't better than Nicki Minaj!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! — Omo Iya Eleja (@motivatedgeorge) February 11, 2019 When Steve Harvey and Mo’Nique sat down to discuss their differences of opinion regarding the actress being blackballed, fans came to Mo’s defense. After suggesting that Mo’Nique’s integrity was not as important as getting a check and more, Harvey was accused of being a sellout and dragged to Black Twitter hell by the internet. mo'nique: i have integri– steve harvey: if i crumble, my children crumble, my grandchildren crumble, blueberry crumble, rumble in the jungle, bitch be humble, i am a CLOWN — . (@hoodqueer) February 14, 2019 For some reason, people are obsessed with Malia Obama pretty much being a normal 20-year-old. Our Forever First Kid was caught sipping on some wine after a writer posted a photo that showed her holding a bottle of Rosé. The legal drinking age is 21, but everyone seemed more amused than they were upset. All of Twitter coming together to defend Malia Obama pic.twitter.com/9wgS2WHvj3 — philip lewis (@Phil_Lewis_) February 19, 2019 In what was probably the most confusing moment of them all, Jussie Smollett has been accused of staging the homophobic and racist attack that hospitalized him in January. His mugshot has since been released and reports say he is being charged with felony disorderly conduct and faces up to three years in jail. Lmfao. I don’t want him in jail. I think he should be on 3 months probation with the terms being him having to eat Subway everyday https://t.co/WmsRxargHR — Yac House P | Taahir (@PhillyTheBoss) February 21, 2019 On a lighter note, persistent cheater Tristan Thompson got caught stepping out on Khloe Kardashian yet again—this time with Kylie Jenner’s best friend Jordyn Woods at a party. When reports surfaced, Khloe and the crew pettily confirmed them on social media and fans went in on the ever so trifling Jordyn and dirty dog Tristan. *source* from Tristan Thompson's party: pic.twitter.com/bMag6zKqMt — Jenn Wick (@Jennykay5real) February 20, 2019 While sitting down for a town hall symposium for the My Brother’s Keeper program, Barack Obama and Stephen Curry gave out some great advice to the young men in attendance. Specifically, Obama talked about having confidence and not using twerking women and gold chains to front. “If you are very confident about your sexuality, you don’t have to have eight women around you twerkin’,” he hilariously said. “You seem stressed that you’ve gotta be acting that way. I’ve got one woman that I’m very happy with.” Shout out to Mrs. O.  and to be clear, there is no tweet to see here people…”You seem stressed” is Obama at his pettiest and we love it. To close thing out, we’ve also gathered your usual, everyday pettiness happening on social media…like folks making fun of single people, Soulja Boy correcting TMZ titles that claimed he was “dating” Blac Chyna, people laughing at Kim K.’s cluelessness , and more.

What We Know About The Death And Alleged Murder Of Tamla Horsford

Was it an accident or was it foul play? Join Our Text Club To Get The Latest Music, Entertainment, Contests And Breaking News On Your Phone. Text VIP to 71007 to join! In November 2018, Tamla Horsford was found dead at a friend’s home after an adult sleepover. The mother of five’s death was ruled an accident by alcohol poisoning but there have been skeptics who suggest that Horsford died at the hands of foul play. Major Joe Perkins with the Forsyth County Sheriff’s Office in Georgia told reporters that none of Horsford’s injuries leaned towards foul play. “It was a party. They were drinking,”  11 Alive  reports. “She was drinking. Most of the partygoers had gone to bed at that time, and she was on the deck alone.” It was alleged that Horsford fell off a balcony where she was attending a “Football Moms” sleepover with seven other moms and three men. The early death certificate released by the coroner suggested that Horsford’s death was an accident but the fall from the balcony caused “multiple blunt force injuries” and “acute ethanol intoxication” also known as alcohol poisoning. But friends, internet theorists and more suggest that there’s more to the story. Her best friend  Michelle Graves , who was not at the party suggests that foul play happened to claim her friend’s life.  “It’s impossible to get the injuries that she had from one fall,” Graves told Atlanta’s WSB-TV . Here’s what we know. Horsford Died At A “Football Moms” Sleepover, Although Men Were Present There is video evidence of Horsford singing “Happy Birthday” at the party that was for the football mom’s. But why were men present if witnesses claim it was a sleepover just for the women? Multiple Abrasions Were Reportedly Found On Horsford’s Body Horsford’s family hired another medical examiner who found the other marks on Horsford’s body. The man who called 911,  Jose Barrera pointed out a cut on Horsford’s wrist. “She’s lying in the yard, basically on the patio downstairs. She’s not moving one bit. She’s not breathing,” he told dispatchers. “I’m noticing a small cut on her right wrist. She’s not breathing whatsoever. I don’t know if this cut was self-inflicted.” “We’re glad we’re not the only ones who feel there’s something awry with the story and with how she lost her life,” Graves told  WSB-TV  reporter Mike Petchenik. Barrera himself was placed on leave by his job at the Forsyth County Court system for using his position to “access confidential files on a current investigation surrounding a death in which you were a witness.” He was later terminated . Horsford’s case was officially closed on February 20 . “The State of Georgia has ruled the death accidental and consistent with an accidental fall,” s aid Major Joe Perkins with the Forsyth County Sheriff’s Office . “None of the injury patterns noted were consistent with foul play.” After speaking to the attendees’ police said Horsford’s death happened when she accidentally fell from a deck at the house. None of the attendees of the party saw the fall. “While the injuries sustained appeared to have been likely received in a fall, detectives awaited toxicology and medical examiner reports to verify the findings,” Perkins said.

Update: Tamla Horsford Investigation Closed, Death Ruled Accidental

Source: Tetra Images/Getty Images / Getty Tamla Horsford Investigation Closed The investigation into the mysterious death of a Georgia woman is over—for now. Investigators announced during a news conference Wednesday that they’ve concluded that Tamla Horsford’s death was accidental after she allegedly fell off a deck during a “football moms” slumber party. During the news conference, the Forsyth County Sheriff’s Office announced they were closing the case because investigators said there was no evidence of foul play, reports WSBTV. The Sheriff’s Office added that they interviewed 30 people including people at the party before they reached their conclusion. They add that the medical examiner ruled that Tamla’s injuries were consistent with a fall from the home’s deck and added that acute ethanol intoxication (alcohol) was a factor. According to several people including Tamla’s best friend Michelle Graves, that just can’t be true. Michelle told WSBTV that an independent medical examiner found multiple injuries all over Tamla’s body and she and the family are fighting to have their voices heard. They’re totally lying,” Graves said on a phone call with reporter Mike Petchenik. “They’re not out of the woods, because this was not an accident.” Another person speaking out is Tamla’s father Kurtland St. Du Jour who spoke to Majic 107.5’s Ryan Cameron and is adamant that his daughter’s death was no accident. He cited a previous Facebook post from the owner of the house where Tamla died as proof. “Her injuries were not consistent with what they’re saying,” St. Du Jour said. “This is only was brought to light until we started pressuring them and they started getting pressure from everywhere else. […] The only thing we got was a death certificate with a lot of inconsistencies. […] The homeowner at one time went on Facebook and said “Nobody fell off a deck.” St. Du Jour believes that some of Tamla’s injuries were post-mortem and thinks she was “taken out” before her body was thrown from the deck. “Her wrist was cut, the bone was broken, where they said the body was, there was no blood pool. She was already dead.”
