Source: Apple Music/Beats 1 Radio / Apple Music/Beats 1 Radio Nicki Minaj And Barbz Destroy BET BET really stepped in it this time. On Sunday night they sent out a tweet about Cardi B’s Grammy win and put a caption that Nicki was getting dragged by her lacefront . This caused a ton of backlash over the idea they were pitting women against one another. Nicki Minaj responded by pulling out of her performance in the BET Experience and dragging the hell out of the network. She also singled out the writer and put her picture on blast, which is a terrible thing to do. But, you know, that’s what Nicki Minaj does. BET’s social media team is really bad. The tweets be stale, the jokes be late and that Nicki Minaj tweet that went out is just classless. I’d expect that from a Black Twitter regular, not a media outlet. — JESUS CROYST! (@MrMarinKnows) February 11, 2019 Anyway, back to BET. The Barbz are waging war and it’s uglyyyyyyy. Take a look.

Their source says Legend wanted for West to be an advisor for Team John but returning judges Kelly Clarkson, Blake Shelton and Adam Levine weren’t happy when they heard his plans and let higher ups knows how they felt. “Kanye has just caused too many problems in his personal life and endeavors lately and they just feel that it would be best if him and Kim stayed away from the show for John’s first season,” the insider revealed. “John has been bringing Chrissy to set and everyone gets along with the both of them just fine. He has a big head and he is definitely trying to win, but they are all in it to win it,” the source told Radar. Do you believe it? We’re not so sure. Kardashians were all over the place when Larsa and Scottie Pippen’s daughters did Dancing With The Stars kid competition — but we could see things being a little different if the Wests were set to go on camera.
Kevin Hart Dragged For Message The world was stunned to hear news reports of Jussie Smollett being attacked in Chicago. The attack featured homophobic and racist slurs directed at him from two unknown assailants who also yelled “MAGA country” at him. Th entertainment world has come out in support of Jussie. One such celebrity was Kevin Hart who put the above message out in support of him. However, his message didn’t go over well because he’s spent the better part of 2019 going back and forth on apologizing for his jokes and tweets that are definitely anti-gay. Twitter has not forgotten and have lashed out at Hart’s message. Meanwhile, let your own son be gay tho…gtfoh pic.twitter.com/WDmSnWfoeE — Kellee Terrell (@kelleent) January 30, 2019 Some are defending him and saying he’s trying to do better but there are far more people who say that’s not enough. What do you think? Take a look at the massive dragging taking place. Damn, it’s almost as if him just apologizing at first would have made all this go away…

Recently, the former midwest rap sensation posted videos of himself rehearsing for the upcoming “Millenium Tour”. This was both exciting for fans, and concerning after they spotted the atrocity on top of his head. “Gimme what you got for a porkchop” must’ve been the words Chingy uttered to his barber right before he recently cut his hair. What is this hairstyle??? Look at this! Is this the haircut YOU want to see on Chingy on the tour???? Hit the flip to see how Twitter has been unapologetically dragging Chingy by his dusty follicles and how he responded. It’s pure comedy.

Source: Tibrina Hobson / Getty Earlier this week, Beyonce’s Internet was buzzing with news that Tiffany Haddish wasn’t up to par when performing on New Year’s Eve in Miami. Let some tell it, she kind of bombed, so much so that she was booed, prompting some folks at her sold-out show to walk out. Apparently, “The Last O.G.” star had been “partying all night,” still had some “Ciroc in her system” and had trouble remembering her lines. She ended up cutting her set short, but to make sure the audience still had a good time, she invited some folks up on stage to enjoy some of her vodka and see if they could do stand-up better than her. “F–k it,” she declared. “I really wanted to talk about some stuff and can’t remember none of it.” Was her behavior disappointing? Most definitely. Should everyone get a refund? Absolutely. However, unlike most of your male comedian faves, the 39-year-old took complete accountability for her actions, tweeting on Tuesday, “Yes this happened. I wish it was better Miami. I prayed on it and I have a strong feeling this will never happened again.” Yes this happened. I wish it was better Miami. I prayed on it and I have a strong feeling this will never happened again. Tiffany Haddish Bombs, Drinks with Fans Instead https://t.co/4QxPn0j0xc via @TheRoot — Tiffany Haddish (@TiffanyHaddish) January 1, 2019 Like many human beings, myself included, Tiffany went to work hungover AF and had a pretty shi**y day, not living up to her impressive resume. But she said she was sorry, it will never happen again. The end. But not surprisingly, it wasn’t the end. It was actually just the beginning. See, her faux pas opened up the floodgates for her detractors to spread all kinds of slander about her on Twitter. And no, these detractors weren’t the (mostly white) deranged Peta folks foaming at the mouth because she said she’ll stop wearing fur when the police stop killing Black folks. Sadly, the majority of those detractors were us. Well, correction…They were actually a group of salty Black men I like to refer to as Chapped Lip Black Twitter . You know, the same dehydrated ashy dudes that blame Black women for everything from climate change to high rates of incarceration to why Cardi B won’t take Offset back . See, they came out in full-force to prove that “all the hype” around Tiffany is underserved because she “isn’t really funny” and how she “isn’t ready,” using this one stand-up failure as their smoking gun. Tiffany Haddish forgot her jokes Live on stage ! Damn , Katt Williams tried to tell y’all pic.twitter.com/Z7uPByQjzm — LIL CHIRP CHIRP (@Geeyavel1iii) January 1, 2019 *Tiffany Haddish gets boo’d” Katt Williams : pic.twitter.com/VtEHSJJQgh — yall won (@IssaBlackMan) January 1, 2019 Katt Williams was right about Tiffany Haddish . Tiffany isn't funny at all. She says the dummies shit and thinks it's cute. Need to go find another career because this isn't it. #tiffanyhaddish — Shamiyah (@MizzShamiyah) January 1, 2019 I went to go see if @TiffanyHaddish was actually funny. I ended up doing this. Conclusion: She is not funny. Horrible show. In her defense, she said she was having a rough night. She didn’t have to be up there. She ended up inviting me up on stage to tell jokes. pic.twitter.com/Ze1BPzeY9S — Andrew Chestnutt (@AndrewChestnut1) January 1, 2019 Let’s be clear: If an Emmy, a Showtime special, being one of the best SNL hosts of 2018, four movies under her belt last year and a hit TBS sitcom, wasn’t enough for you to see that Tiffany is talented, then you’re just a hater. And if one bad night means you should “find a new career,” this means your geniuses— Dave Chappelle , Chris Rock , Kevin Hart & company —would all be out of jobs because every one of those comic has bombed, at every stage of their careers. Yet, funny how these same folks don’t have this same kind of energy for men. But what’s really depressing is that these critiques aren’t just coming from dudes with 200 or less Twitter followers, we’ve seen this from Tiffany’s colleagues. As some of the tweets above pointed out, Katt Williams of all people with his own personal struggles, fixed his lips to say that Tiffany didn’t deserve her success . “She’s been doing comedy since she was 16. You can’t tell me your favorite Tiffany Haddish joke. Why? Because she ain’t done a tour yet. She ain’t done a special. She has not proven the ability to tell jokes back to back for an hour to nobody,” Williams said. And then in classic hotep fashion, Katt basically called her a negro bedwench. “They like her because she wanna sleep with a white man. That’s why the only thing she said was I wanna give it to Brad Pitt. She said she’s got a diseased vajayjay ain’t nobody checking for that.” Even her own “Last O.G.” co-star Tracey Morgan showed his ass during a 2018 interview, literally acting like someone stole his bike when asked what it was like to work with the “Girls Trip” comedienne . This is one hating ass dude right here that show would be nothing if @TiffanyHaddish wasn’t on it… Don’t bite the hand that keeps you relevant!!! pic.twitter.com/BlpDu9Sxjw — Lil Rel Howery (@LilRel4) May 31, 2018 Now, no one is above critique, Tiffany included. And it’s completely OK for her and her humor to not be your cup of tea. I’ll be the first one to admit that I’m still figuring out how I feel about her, her love for Taylor Swift’s collard greens and that whole #WhoBitBeyonce mess , but this hatred for her just doesn’t make any sense. Or maybe it does. Too often, when Black women have the audacity to excel at their craft, especially in areas that are male dominated, there will always be insecure men who will do and say anything to undermine that success. Hence, all these new rules that Black women have to follow and double standards we must adhere to that men never have to abide by. See, our greatness isn’t always looked at something to celebrate, it can be seen as a threat and a roadblock to other’s accomplishments. ‘Cause be crystal clear: We’re all Black queens, until our stars begin to shine brighter than theirs. Tiffany Haddish just happens to be the one currently in the crosshairs of that misogynist nonsense and her bombing in Miami continues to show us that as Black women we aren’t allowed to make mistakes. There is no room for error. We have to work harder, be smarter and be flawless in order for our talent to get a sliver of the recognition our mediocre male counterparts garner. But whether you love or hate her, Ms. Haddish isn’t going anywhere, but up. And if her name in bright lights unnerves you so damn much and invokes such a visceral reaction, you really need to ask yourself, “Is she the problem, or is it me and my frail ego?” RELATED NEWS: Cardi B Drops ‘Money’ Video, Black Twitter Makes It Rain It’s About Time!

Source: Johnny Louis / Getty Tiffany Haddish Bombs New Year Show It happens to every comedian: a bomb. All of the greats have gone on stage and totally screwed up his or her performance, causing people to boo or ever walk out. It happened to Dave Chappelle just a few years ago. The same just happened to Tiffany Haddish, who put together a New Year comedy show in Miami that ended in disaster. She seemed to forget all of her jokes while fans walked out and heckled her. Again, this happens to everyone. However, Tiffany Haddish has been receiving a ton of hate ever since she hopped on the scene for a bevy of reasons and a lot of naysayers want to see her fail. Thus, internet fights. It's a contingent of niggas that HATE Tiffany Haddish. I don't get it. But like whatever… she stays booked and busy and hating comes along with the bag. Good luck to her I'm still rooting for her. — M’BlockU (@rodimusprime) January 1, 2019 Take a look at some of the reactions to the bad night and how things went left super quickly. Its not that we want “Tiffany Haddish” to fail, in my opinion she is not funny. She is just loud and ghetto and the only reason he gets any scripts is because she feeds into the stereotype. It's sad and sickening. pic.twitter.com/KIR8RfH1zq — Tiffany Marie (@TiffyMarieLoves) January 1, 2019
