Source: Larry French / Getty With news that Wendy Williams got a new boo who is old enough to be her son, it’s been revealed that her man is a 27-year-old ex convict. According to Page Six , the 57-year-old’s mystery man has been identified as Marc Tomblin, who was convicted of robbery with a dangerous weapon in 2013 in North Carolina. In addition, Tomblin, who works in “finance,” has a conviction of felony breaking and entering in May 2013 AND two robbery charges from August 2012. When TMZ caught wind of Tomblin’s past, they asked Wendy about it. Her response? She ain’t going nowhere. “I am a 54-year-old grown-ass woman,” she said. “I know what I’m doing.” Adding, “Look, my husband had a full baby with a woman he was involved with for 15 years … where I was cooped up only to be a show pony. Now, I’m living my life.” Welp!!! See the tea for yourself: As we previously reported , last weekend during a recent trip to Los Angeles, the iconic talk show host posted up a pic of the two, holding hands by the water. “Last night was the most beautiful sunset in Sherman Oaks with special people. Thank you, California! You’ve won me over! I’ll be back for the Hip Hop Festival in August! #92 .3 #oldenoughtobeyourmother #verysexyman #mynewlife,” she wrote on Instagram.

Wendy then looked to her alleged Bae and apologized. Turning back to the paps, she was clear: “I didn’t plan on this, but it is what it is…I have a very full life. Thank you for watching. Adding, “I would ask you to respect our privacy, but please, I don’t respect people’s privacy. That’s why I do the hot topics,” she quipped. When asked if we would ever see the three of them together , Wendy screamed, “Yes,” reminding them that their son is going to graduate from college and get married one day and both his parents will be there for him.

Source: Rodin Eckenroth / Getty June month presents a special time to appreciate Black music. President Jimmy Carter declared Black Music Month in 1979. While the sixth month of the year usually sheds a light on the artist, we went a little deeper and looked at the melanin queens that made history though musical visuals. We’re kicking it off with none other than Ola Ray from Michael Jackson’s Thriller . The mini-movie is a cultural classic and the first of its kind to be directed by a Hollywood movie director, John Landis (National Lampoon’s Animal House). Not to mention it also cost half a million dollars to make, an unspeakable number in 80s. The 13-minute project is known for more than Jackson’s signature red jacket, dancing zombies, and his gorgeous but scared arm candy. Her name is Ola Ray. View this post on Instagram Happy Halloween A post shared by The Official Ola Ray (@olamarieray) on Oct 31, 2016 at 5:24pm PDT Ray’s curly mane, red lips, and denim on denim set with a striking red top and heels are iconic in its own right. The now 58-year old actress was a former Playmate in the 1980 June issue and while she had the looks to be Jackson’s front-woman, her risqué past almost cost her the gig. “I auditioned a lot of girls and this girl Ola Ray — first of all, she was crazy for Michael,”such a great smile. I didn’t know she was a Playmate,” reported Vanity Fair in 2010. However, Jackson reportedly took a real liking to her. “He seemed taken by the fact that I was a Playboy model,” Ray told the Sunday Mirror in 2012. Landis said Jackson was fine with her: “I said, ‘Michael, she’s a Playmate, but so what? She’s not a Playmate in this.’ He went, ‘O.K., whatever you want.’ I have to tell you, I got along great with Michael. View this post on Instagram I'm here! A post shared by The Official Ola Ray (@olamarieray) on Oct 24, 2017 at 7:59pm PDT We’re so glad he did. Ray and Jackson truly light up the screen in the 13-minute long video. Between her sweet smile, stylish threads, and her famous shriek, Ray’s was and always will be an integral part of what is one of the most iconic music videos — if not the most — of all time. For that alone, we honor you Ola Ray as the first Black Music Month Video Vixen Spotlight.

If you needed a good laugh, no worries, we got you! In a viral video that made us crack up, a Houston boy gets really upset that a person sitting behind him on his flight has the audacity to put their feet on his armrest! See, the little boy was heading back home from a glorious vacation with his father in Orlando and wanted to enjoy his trip back in peace. According to KTRK , in the footage shot by little Rodney’s dad, Darryl Small, the four-year-old is clearly irate about what’s happening and does not care if the woman hears him either. “There’s some stinky feet behind me,” Rodney said, looking really serious about it too. Rodney then show us that these “stinky feet” is referring to is right on his arm rest. Soon after, he demands that the “lady” explain, “Why do you have you feet behind me?” All of a sudden her toes disappeared. LOL View this post on Instagram A post shared by Rodney Small (@justrodneyoneal) on Jun 3, 2019 at 11:30pm PDT Darryl told KTRK TV that after he stopped recording, the woman apologized. He also said that he’s sure she didn’t mean anything by it, she was probably just on her iPad and didn’t notice what was going on. “We weren’t offended or anything, it was just his reaction,” Darryl explained. Adding, “Knowing his spontaneous attitude, there’s no telling what we’re going to get from him so for me, like Snapchat and everything, I always have the camera rolling.” Speaking of which, Rodney now has is own Instagram page now!

Source: Prince Williams / Getty Cardi B has cancelled a few of her concerts last month due to needing more time to heal from her recent plastic surgeries . Last week, she took to social media to give fans a glimpse of the toll that the recovery process has taken on her body. In a now deleted post, the “Press” rapper showed her severely swollen feet and revealed that when she flies her feet and stomach become swollen. Text “RICKEY” to 71007 to join the Rickey Smiley Morning Show mobile club for exclusive news. ( Terms and conditions ). “Look at how swollen my feet get every time I take a plane,” she said. “Imagine my body. Reasons why my doctors told me to chill on shows.” She added that not only is there swelling but she feels a burning sensation in her stomach and feet as well. https://twitter.com/PopSirens/status/1137494708115116034 After giving birth to her daughter, Kulture , Cardi said she underwent plastic surgery again, getting her breast redone by getting breast augmentation and liposuction. On Instagram, the former Love & Hip-Hop star said she misunderstood how long the recovery process would actually take and didn’t follow the doctors orders when he told her not to fly for a few months. SEE ALSO: Here’s A First Look At Cardi B And Offset’s Baby Girl, Kulture [PHOTOS] “One thing my doctor was saying was that you cannot take planes,” Bardi explained. “You cannot take planes for like 3 months. So every time that I keep traveling, like, my feet and my legs, they swell up. Like, I had really bad ‘cankles.’ Then after my shows, I wasn’t really feeling it when I performing, but I would really feel a lot of back pains. And then on top of that, my stitches around my boobs, on the outside, are completely healed, but the inside, you know, you still got stitches in the inside, in my breasts, so they’ve slowly got to heal.” The Bronx native is scheduled to perform on June 16th at the Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival in Manchester, Tennessee. There is no word of her cancelling that performance so hopefully she will be healthy enough to take the stage. This story was originally published on MadameNoire.com . Sign Up For Our Newsletter!

Source: Tawni Bannister / Courtesy of Quan Michelle Name: Quan Michelle IG: quanmichelle_ Agency: Dorthoy Combs Models Claim to Fame: Michelle was one of the faces in Universal Standard’s groundbreaking athletic attire campaign. As a young girl growing up in Baltimore, Maryland Quan Michelle thought a model was someone who “exuded confidence.” Sadly, despite having a longstanding desire to join the industry, that description did not apply to her. “I wasn’t confident growing up at all. I got teased a lot for my height, my weight, I was a bigger girl, taller,” explained Michelle in an exclusive interview with Hello Beautiful. View this post on Instagram Thankful for all that transpired during the past two months. Learned more about this industry, myself, elevated my career and my inspiration is VIVID. The lord holds my hand through tribulations and protects my energy from negativity. I held on to people who wouldn’t blink for me for a long time because I thought I had to. I asked God to remove my enemies and a lot of folks started disappearing. I’m thankful for my mentality, it’s been the hidden gem. Watch company you keep and trust your gut instincts. Some want to use you for selfish reasons that aren’t genuine. Be thankful for those you can trust, confide in and appreciate what you do! Thankful for my home, health, family, tight circle, experiences, contracts and lessons. Blessed to have my blended family who genuinely supports me. Gracious for my team, you all work so hard! To EVERYONE I’ve worked with in 2018 and past. Thank you ALL, you’re all part of my growth! I love you guys and can’t wait to reveal my HUGE SECRET! Xo #Anyways BLESSED X THANKFUL. Periodt . . . . @zacmakeupartist @john___ellis A post shared by @ quanmichelle_ on Nov 22, 2018 at 8:07am PST “As my journey progressed, I gained that confidence. It’s something I had to teach myself, something I had to learn,” she added. One of the methods she used to accomplish that was seeking out role models she could connect with. One of them was industry veteran Tyra Banks . “I am a huge huge Tyra Banks fan. I used to rush home from school and watch her show,” she said. Not only was it comforting for Michelle to see Banks in the spotlight as a statuesque woman with a shapely figure it was healing to hear someone else give voice to the insecurities she was dealing with.

She’s obviously given me such good advice. I really appreciate her support.

She is not only contributing financially to the purchasing of raised plant beds but donating time as well. Her modeling career might be moving in the right direction, but she is still seeking inspiration to take her career to the next level. These days she finds it in in the books she totes with her to castings including Susan Moses’ The Art of Dressing Curves and Crosse’s The World Is My Runway. She doesn’t own a television preferring to spend her time learning.

She is currently working on opening a cost-regulated studio to provide Baltimore residents with a fraction of the creative infrastructure of their New York counterparts. “There are so many talented people in Baltimore, and I feel like they don’t have the resources all the time to do what they love. I would love to be the person to help them and provide those things.” She believes her status as a Baltimore native will helps her understand the needs of those grinding in the city in a way that way that Crosse understood hers when she was starting out. “It’s very nice to have that support from someone that understands where I come from,” she stated.
