Source: Prince Williams / Getty Cliff Dixon And Erica Mena Fight Over “Lost” Property Erica Mena’s ex-bf Cliff Dixon says he’s owed property left behind in the house they shared last year, alleging that Mena stole it. But Erica Mena says…not so fast. And she has proof. You may recall, Erica and Cliff stayed together in with a roommate in an Atlanta estate around October 2018 when they reportedly got into an explosive fight. Cops were called and both parties were charged over the incident. In a matter of months, Erica has moved out and on with life. Cliff, however, says Mena was holding on to his property, specifically a TV and rims. In an IG story, Cliff wrote : Since you got the police involved I tried to do sh*t the right way & pick up my TV & rims & you say they ain’t there. How ya’ll sposed to have so much money but ya’ll stealing from me. I’m the broke one tho. You sposed to be happy & moving on but steady reaching out to anybody who ain’t block your weak a**. But is this a stretch??? Erica says Cliff is just being a scammer like he’s known for. Hit the flip for her response.
Source: CBS Photo Archive/Contributor / Getty Tamar Braxton Says Her Boyfriend Used To Only Date White Women Tamar Braxton’s boo apparently had a preference for women who looked strikingly different than her. While continuing to be the highlight of “Celebrity Big Brother”, Tay Tay told her former almost fight partner Lo Lo Jones that her boo a.k.a. “T’Challa” had a preference for white women before they dated. Mind you, Tamar said something similar about her ex-husband and noted he “went for blondes” before her. “I met T’Challa and now it’s a wrap again. But he didn’t date Black women, which is crazy,” said Tamar in a clip seen on MadameNoire . “He did not date Black women. It’s like, I’m attracted to men who don’t like Black women. Vince neither, remember that? Vince either. […] “All white girls or others.” Tay also added that her bae, who hails from Nigeria, changed her mind about marriage. “When me and Vince split up I thought I would never get married again. I didn’t want to go through that again. It was a lot. I just never thought…I’m really grateful about it.” While we still haven’t seen Tamar’s Wakandan King, she recently talked about her King with Wendy Williams who noted that he has dreads and a “really nice body.” Tay also said her man’s more than a snack he’s a “lunchable” and a Harvard businessman who she wants to have babies with. If you haven’t been watching Tamar on “Celebrity Big Brother” you’re seriously missing out, she was recently named fan favorite for her antics. See more Tamar on CBB on the flip.
Source: Wojtek Zagorski / Getty The polar vortex has been quite offensive these past couple of days. As of Thursday, it’s already taken over a number of states in the U.S. with the Midwest being hit the hardest. According to ABC 6 , some states in this area are experiencing temperatures in the negative 30s, and if you add wind chills to the mix, states like Illinois have experienced weather that feels like negative 57 degrees . According to The New York Times , eight weather-related deaths have already been recorded in the Midwest while the east coast isn’t that much safer with cities like New York experiencing single digit temperatures. But despite all this, folks will still find a way to capture the madness on camera. You can blame it on snowed-in boredom or you can blame it on plain curiosity. But whatever the reasoning, people are playing in the snow in the most bizarre and hilarious ways. First, a few people are putting their dogs on the line to test the weather. Some pet owners have been letting their canines out into the cold just to find out if they’d be thrilled for a walk. For many, the answer was a hard no. Just let Twitter user @IamNPaterson and her dog tell it… My dog when the #polarvortex arrives in #newjersey “No. Absolutely not.” @njdotcom pic.twitter.com/uUFKWu2BzV — Natalie Paterson (@IamNPaterson) January 30, 2019 Then, there were people who put their scientist hat on to discover the shocking effects of freezing temperatures. One Twitter user posted a video of herself soaking a T-shirt then sticking it outside in the cold. The results were a clothing item that could stand on its own after just a little over an hour outside. It’s no joke out here. One of the most viral videos, however, is a challenge that carried over from previous years. People have been boiling water and throwing it into the freezing air, creating a snow-making affect. Peep the slow motion spectacle below. According to Wired , because the water is so hot, it has enough energy to transition from liquid to gas quickly. When the hot water is projected into the cold air, a few things happen. First, the hot water is making water vapor thanks to evaporation. Second, the water is breaking into smaller blobs of water as it moves through the air. Both the evaporation and smaller blobs cause the water to cool off quickly. In addition to this, the cold air can’t hold a lot of water vapor (which is why the air is much drier in the winter), so the water vapor doesn’t stay in the air, but it condenses out. Viola. Instant snow. People across social media have been trying their luck at the phenomenon whether it be -10 degrees temperatures or -20 degrees outside. Whatever the case might be, make sure to stay warm and stay safe. The polar vortex will still disrespect you and your entire video.

With this information in mind, it’s pretty safe to assume Bey feels her best when she’s vegan–so why wouldn’t she want all of her fans to feel their best, too? That along with the obvious fact that going vegan is best for all our little animal friends and the planet makes for a pretty good case, but a lot of people still don’t have the discipline or the desire to completely give up meat and all other animal products. Well, Beyoncé has a solution for that: because if anything can make us all go vegan, it’s the promise of some free Jay Z and Beyoncé tickets. Mrs. Knowles-Carter took to Instagram and posted a picture of her “Greenprint,” which is basically what she does in order to reduce her carbon emissions. For Bey, this means eating a plant-based breakfast and also doing “meatless Mondays”. Other options on the Greenprint website include eating plant-based meals at work, eating two plant-based meals a day, and eating plant-based meals only throughout the week. Like I mentioned before–Beyoncé promoting her healthy lifestyle is great…but what fans are most intrigued by is the caption for this instagram post. The star wrote, “Click the link in my bio for a chance to win tickets to any JAY and/or my shows for life.” You read that right. Free tickets to any Beyoncé and/or Jay-Z concert FOR. LIFE. Just for eating your fruits and veggies. Yeah, we can manage that. As you might imagine, just like any time something happens with Bey, fans were absolutely freaking out over this opportunity. Yes, they’re willing to go vegan for Beyonc é and yes, the reactions were absolutely hilarious. holdon….

The Real Housewives of New Jersey is not the best series in the franchise. There, we said it. However, the show does pack a punch when it comes to the fights between the ladies, and Wednesday’s installment gave us a fight that even Teresa Giudice was probably proud of. Hell, it found Jennifer Aydin breaking a win glass and threatening to stab Melissa Gorga. Oh yes, it was one for the books, and it’s time to unpack what went down. All of the ladies were engaged in yet another brutal argument, and insults were being hurled as patrons of the restaurant looked on in horror. “If I throw a f***ing glass you’re gonna know it,” Jennifer screamed, as she smashed a wine glass and held it up at Melissa. “You’ve got the wrong f***ing girl, I’m telling you that,” said Melissa who was ready for a fight with her new enemy. Teresa then screamed “No, no, no” as the screen faded. Oh yes, we were left on a cliffhanger of epic proportions. But how did we get to this point? Let’s run down what came before it. The two women who were friends before the incident only started arguing when Melissa thought Jennifer threw wine at her when their castmates were fighting earlier. Danielle and Margaret were the ones to start fighting. They’ve been at it for weeks, and while it’s draining, it’s providing the show with some much-needed drama. Always the one to cross lines as though they are going out of fashion, Danielle started to bash Margaret’s relationship with her kids. “If you spent a little time with your kids maybe they’d still be here – maybe you’d see your grandkids and maybe, just maybe, you’d have a relationship with them,” Danielle yelled across the table, but Melissa butted in: “Kids are off limits, Danielle!” Margaret did not let that one lie, and called Danielle “an old dog with no new tricks,” but Danielle continued to stick the knife in, yelling: “They are not around you – get over it!” What happened next was Margaret losing her cool, so she doused Danielle with her glass of wine as though she would explode like a demon. “You f***ing c***,” retorted Danielle as her makeup ran down her face, and she had to be restrained by a security guard. Poor Danielle was only trying to emerge from the “friend of a housewife” status, and we think she made a good attempt. “She is vile. She’s dead to me. I’m done with this,” Margaret muttered as she walked off. “There’s an unwritten law in this group: You do not talk about people’s children,” Dolores Catania quipped of the whole scenario. “Had Danielle talked about my children she would have no teeth left. When kids come into the picture, it’s no holds barred,” Dolores continued. Then there was Jennifer and Margaret, who brought their New Jersey beef on vacation. The fight was apparently about the necklace the housewives bought for Teresa. “You know what Margaret, you’re used to an environment of cheating. Your mother f***ed someone for 15 years – I get it!” Jen screamed as the ladies locked horns again. “That’s why your husband sleeps in the f***ing poolhouse,” Margaret clapped back. Jen maintained that her relationship was fine and that her husband could sleep wherever he wanted. “I know, whether it’s in his girlfriend’s bed or not,” said Margaret with an evil grin, adding: “Word on the street.” Jen had enough and exited the table, but not before screeching: “Shut the f*** up with that!” “I know nothing about your marriage. I said that to hurt you,” Margaret admitted when Jen returned. “I said things to hurt you too,” Jen revealed in a somewhat sincere moment. “We’re just both p***ed off.” Elsewhere on this eventful installment, Teresa aired her thoughts on Joe’s return from prison. “I’ll be excited when he’s home. He said, ”I’m gonna be so far up your a** – I’m gonna do everything with you,’; and I’m like, ‘Oh no!'”,’ she laughed. “It’s also nerve-wracking because I am more independent now. And If I don’t like something – even my dad says, ‘If they don’t do what you say, tell them to go f*** themselves.’ When he comes home, then we’ll see how it is. “Obviously, I know I’m a different person. I think he’s definitely gonna be a different person,” Teresa added. Melissa had her own two cents to share on the whole mess that is Teresa’s marriage. “Obviously, we’re all waiting and hopeful that they’ll all be together as a family again very soon. But the elephant in the room is that that might not happen,” she said in a confessional. What are your thoughts on all the action? Hit the comments below.

Jenni Farley has gone off on Roger Mathews. The Jersey Shore star has shared a lengthy, emotional, candid and disturbing letter in which she claims her estranged husband abused her in a variety of verbal and physical ways. This letter comes about six weeks after Farley and Mathews got into such a confrontation that police were called and a restraining order was granted against the latter. Now, the situation has actually turned uglier. Scroll down to find out why, to read Farley's full letter and to wonder what will happen next between the reality stars… 1. A Brief History: Mathews and Farley got married in October of 2015. Their relationship has been chronicled on MTV’s Jersey Shore and its spinoff, Jersey Shore: Family Vacation. 2. They Share Two Kids 3-year-old named Meilani and a 2-year-old Greyson, the latter of whom has been diagnosed with Austism. 3. Roger Mathews, JWOWW Farley filed for divorce in September of 2018, citing “irreconcilable differences” on the papers that were entered into court in Ocean County, New Jersey. 4. Three Months Later… … Farley was granted a order of protection against Mathews after some sort of major fight that ended with the cops talking to both parties. 5. Mathews Then Laid Into Farley He recorded multiple Instagram videos in the wake of their split, blasting Farley while telling his side of the story. “My wife, earlier tonight, we had a disagreement because she’s leaving again tomorrow for work and promised my daughter that she would be hanging out with her all day, whereas my daughter has the flu,” he explained in one of them. 6. The TRUTH Will Come Out Roger made this claim over and over, ranting as follows: “This is my liberty and my justice. Jenni has more fans than me and more influence than me but what she does not have and has never had is the truth on her side. There is no “my truth” there is only THE TRUTH” and the public is about to see that in its rawest form. No narration needed. Just stay tuned. Justice will prevail in the end. I have nothing to hide.” View Slideshow
Chicago police believe they have found the two men who assaulted Empire star Jussie Smollett early Tuesday morning. The 35-year old was targeted in a clear hate crime this week by two black-clad, masked men in Chicago’s Streeterville section near his home; they broke his rib, tied a rope around his neck and poured bleach all over him. Smollett was treated at Northwestern Hospital and remains in stable condition. He told authorities that the men screamed something about “MAGA country” during the assault, a reference to Donald Trump’s Make America Great Again slogan. Now, the cops have released a statement to accompany a couple photos they took off surveillance videos in the area. The photos depict two men walking on New Street near the intersection with E. Illinois Street between 1:30 AM and 1:45 AM on Tuesday. They’re approximately a block from the Subway restaurant Smollet had gone to Tuesday morning, roughly halfway between the restaurant and Jussie’s home. “Photos of people of interest who were in area of the alleged assault & battery of Empire cast member,” Chicago Police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi tweeted on Wednesday night. “While video does not capture an encounter, detectives are taking this development seriously & wish to question individuals as more cameras are being reviewed.” The images here are not very clear, of course. They were snapped from a distance and the suspects are not looking at the camera. Still, however, it’s a break in the case and technology can be used to enhance the images. “Given the severity of the allegations, we are taking this investigation very seriously and treating it as a possible hate crime,” the Chicago police said in a statement after the alleged attack. “Detectives are currently working to gather video, identify potential witnesses and establish an investigative timeline.” Smollet’s manager, Brandon Z. Moore, told police he was on the phone with Jussie during the alleged attack. He told cops that he clearly heard the MAGA remark, as well as other racial and homophobic slurs. (Smollett gave out as gay in an interview with Ellen DeGeneres in 2015.) Smollett himself has not yet commented in public about the incident. However, we know he received a death threat in the mail eight days before the attack. Guglielmi previously said police had widened their search of surveillance cameras in the area surrounding the site of the alleged attack. He has described what authorities believe transpired as follows: The victim goes to Subway just after midnight and on his way back, he was attacked by two men. They were masked and wearing black clothing. They called him an Empire … and they used a homophobic slur. They also used the N-word. They proceed to assault him, and they throw a chemical on him that may have been bleach, and put a rope around neck. Guglielmi added that the actor returned to his apartment afterward and called his manager, who quickly made his way to Smollett’s home before taking him to the hospital. “The manager goes to the apartment, and they agree to call police. The manager called us at 2:40 a.m.,” Guglielmi added. View Slideshow: Jussie Smollett Receives Outpouring of Love After Hate Crime Assault In the wake of this tragic event, many people in Hollywood have sent their best wishes to Smollett, while condemning racism and homophobia in the country. Kevin Hart got slammed for doing so . Two co-stars have now spoken out as well. “Jussie’s anger will dissipate, and he will forgive these people for what they did,” Terrence Howard says. “But he won’t, and we cannot, forget their actions. They have to be forgiven because it was done out of ignorance.” He added: “Jussie’s the one that starts singing when everybody’s in a bad mood. He’s the one that cheers everybody up. He’s the one that does all the Instagrams if he catches you sleeping…. “Today, no one was caught sleeping. No one even took time to close their eyes and nap. “They were all in shock that our family—you know, the Fox family, the Empire family, the Lyon family—you know, were attacked by a bunch of hyenas today.” And then there’s this from Taraji P. Henson, who plays Smollet’s mother on Empire: I wish what happened to my baby was just one big bad joke but it wasn’t and we all feel his pain right now. @jussiesmollett is pure love to the bone AND THAT IS WHY SO MANY ARE FEELING HIS PAIN BECAUSE IT IS OUR PAIN!!! I tell you one thing HATE WILL NOT WIN!!!! My baby is resilient and love still lives in him. The devil and his minions are very busy right now but one thing is for sure and two things are for certain #GODIS and that is all I know. The love so many have him just goes to show HE IS LOVE!!!! I LOVE YOU MY BABY MY BABY!!! We’ll keep readers updated as more news breaks. View Slideshow: Jussie Smollett Receives Outpouring of Love After Hate Crime Assault
Jessa Duggar Seewald is giving her fans a peek at the newest tiny addition to the family of 4. The Counting On star shared the ‘first look’ picture with us via Instagram Wednesday, January 30, so we could all enjoy the cuteness. Jessa and Ben Seewald are obviously excited for their third child because they shared the picture only three weeks after announcing their pregnancy to People ! The first picture was from her latest sonogram appointment. While the following was a combo of all three of the little ones. The TLC personality captioned, “we were so happy to finally get to see #BabySeewald3! Looks like this little one will have the same nose as the others.” And it’s true. All the dainty noses are twin-like. Of course, some of Jessa’s siblings chimed in on the Instagram post: “Can’t wait to meet him/her!” said Jill Duggar and Anne Duggar added “Aw! So adorable already.” The young couple shared to People how “overjoyed” they are that “God has blessed them with a baby, due late this spring!” Ben and Jessa believe their third child will be another boy. They say, “if our predictions are right then we already have a ton of clothing and accessories ready to pass down!” But at the same time, the couple would be thrilled to welcome a baby girl into their family. Though they joke that they “would be starting from square one and might have to learn a few things.” Ben and Jessa got married in November 2015 , in front of 1,000 guests! And a year later gave birth to their first child, Spurgeon Elliot, now 3. When often asked about the baby’s name, Ben says Spurgeon and Elliot are both based on influential people in their lives. Not going to pretend I wasn’t relieved when finding that out. In 2017 the Seewalds gave birth to another son, Henry Wilberforce, now 23 months. And now in 2019, we are awaiting their third baby. I think we all notice a pattern here, one Jessa clearly learned from her parents who raised 19 kids. Ben claims that “Henry doesn’t have a clue what’s coming, but Spurgeon understands and he talks about the baby quite a bit.” “Seeing our boys meet their new sibling is something we are really looking forward to,” he laughs in an interview with the outlet. Personally speaking, I think they would make great big brothers to a sweet little girl and it would be fun to see their family take on the adventure of a new gender. But for now, we will wait for some more insta pics to keep us on our toes. Luckily, the Seewald’s are including all of us in their new milestone!
