‘LHHHS5’ Recap: Teairra Mari’s Sex Tape Scandal Flip Flop Makes No Sense

Source: Jason LaVeris / Getty Tonight’s episode of Love and Hip-Hop Hollywood revolves around people realizing that Marcus and Brooke are carrier pigeons, meaning, they have loose lips. It’s also about Teairra Mari looking super crazy for still keeping in contact with Akbar after all that he (allegedly) did to her. Hold that thought, though. Tonight’s episode picks up with Marcus kicking it with A1. Of course, he tells A1 about what RoccStar said at Ray J’s Father Figure Fridays situation. You remember, right? RoccStar alleges to have slept with Lyrica. A1 says he has decided to move forward so it is what it his. In other news, A1 and Lyrica are having a gender reveal. Marcus is invited, but Brooke is not, as per Lyrica (later on, Lyrica invites Princess Love to her gender reveal but not Ray J). No messies allowed. Then, A1’s mother crashes their lunch and she’s not happy (and water is wet). Marcus senses her attitude and leaves them alone. Mama A1 is there to tell him about the reboot of the beef that she has with Lyrica’s mom and she wants A1 to get a DNA test. A1 doesn’t trip though. He’s trying to live his best life, reconciled with his wife. Then we get to Teairra Mari’s crazy situation. Basically. Nikki gathers her girls together to kick it post London and Moniece fills her in on the tension with Teairra. Teairra shows up just as Moniece is chatting about her. TT gets tight, but Moniece explains how she saw video of Teairra Akbar dropping TT off at the airport in Texas. Someone was sitting behind their car recording this entire thing. This is nuts. Teairra says she did still love him and that she went for closure only to find out that he was just trying to finesse her so that she would drop the lawsuit. Then she says this is none of their business anyway. Moniece, Nikki and La’Britney are just looking at her like… Because if you recall, TT dragged them into it and some of them were even at the press conference. Nikki confronts Solo Lucci at the studio to confront him about the rumors he has been spreading about sleeping with her. La’Britney is there to support her and RoccStar was already there kicking it with Solo Lucci. You know the supporting friends are sitting there like: Because…nosey. Anyway, Nikki immediately starts going in on him calling him a poser while Solo Lucci is firm in his stance that he did have sex with her and it’s a game of he said she said. Nikki just gets frustrated and dumps a bag of money before sashaying out. Solo Lucci and RoccStar discuss how Nikki got this info from Brooke and that Brooke feeds Marcus tea and they’re both just some gossip spreading fools. They confront him later on and he starts copping pleas. Yeah, this isn’t going anywhere yet, but Brooke and Marcus are about to be messy exiles if they keep playing. TT also gets a chance to confront Brooke and the general consensus is that TT is ridiculous no matter how you swing it, especially since Akbar claims that they’ve had sex again and that it’s also on camera…again. TT denies this but again, her word is not her bond from what we can tell. Now we’re at Lyrica and A1’s gender reveal. Family and friends show up to support the couple and even their moms manage to get along as Lyrica and A1 squirt blue water at each other via water guns. Yup, it’s a boy! Tonight’s episode ends with Teairra Mari sitting on a bench all dramatic-like. She texts Akbar saying she wants to talk, and he replies, telling her to name a time and place. Lordt. But we’ll have to wait and see what happens next week.

Brian Kemp Launches Crazy Accusation At Stacey Abrams After Getting Caught Trying To Steal Election

Continue reading here:

G eorgia Secretary of State Brian Kemp fired off a ludicrous accusation against Stacey Abrams on Thursday, as he also announced under pressure that his office would allow scores of mostly Black voters to cast a ballot on Election Day. See Also: Georgia Removed Scores Of Voter From Its Rolls As Stacey Abrams Tries To Make History, Lawsuit Says Kemp, a Republican, oversees voter registration and elections as secretary of state. He’s also the GOP’s nominee for governor and is running against Abrams. She’s attempting to make history as the nation’s first African-American female governor. They are locked in a very tight race. His office had placed more than 53,000 voter registration applications on hold—about 70 percent of them from African-Americans, the Associated Press reported on Tuesday. The AP report created a firestorm of criticism against Kemp, who’s backed by President Donald Trump . Kemp denied any wrongdoing. Nevertheless, in a tweet on Thursday morning, Kemp said the 53,000 registrants would be allowed to vote. He also accused Abrams of manufacturing “outrage off a problem she created” and using fear to raise campaign funds. The 53,000 Georgians on our pending list can vote this fall. Abrams is afraid to run on her extreme record so she manufactures outrage off a “problem” she created. She uses fear to fundraise and liberal billionaires continue to bankroll her corrupt enterprise. #gapol #gagop pic.twitter.com/UQpdurabG5 — Brian Kemp (@BrianKempGA) October 11, 2018 At issue was Georgia’s “exact match” law, which requires information on voter registration forms to exactly match the registrant’s ID information. Applications are put on hold, for example, if a registrant’s name appears on a driver’s license with a hyphen but the hyphen is missing on the registration application. Making matters worse, registrants are usually clueless about the reason election officials rejected their application. A new poll shows that Kemp has a nominal two-point lead over Abrams. The Black voters among the 53,000 registrants at issue could easily push her over the top. Meanwhile, voter rights advocates are keeping a close eye on Kemp. “We sued Brian Kemp in #Georgia over his discriminatory exact match scheme in 2016 and won. We will not stand by idly while GA lawmakers resurrect this discriminatory policy again,” The Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law tweeted on Thursday .

Rack, Rack City Bih: Birdman Allegedly Working On A $10 Million Settlement With Tyga For Unpaid Royalties

KIKA/WENN.com Tyga Slaps Birdman & Cash Money With $10 Million Lawsuit For Withholding Royalties According to The Blast Birdman is trying to work out a settlement with Tyga for the $10 million lawsuit he filed after leaving Cash Money Records. He is claiming the record label screwed him out of millions of dollars in royalties. Tyga sued Cash Money and Young Money Records earlier the year accusing them of refusing to pay him royalties for his albums “Careless World” and “Hotel California”. The “Taste” rapper sued Birdman for breach of contract and is seeking a total of $10 million in damages. Court documents were filed earlier this month on Birdman’s behalf where Cash Money is asking for an extension to respond to the lawsuit. Birdman acknowledges that his answer was due this week but is requesting until the end of the month to work the issue out. He stated that Tyga has already agreed to the “extension of time to facilitate ongoing settlement discussions.”

Georgia School Superintendent Uses The N-Word And Says He Will ‘Kill’ Black People

J ust another day in America. Audio recordings of Buford City Schools superintendent Geye Hamby talking about killing “n***ers” and more violent behavior has leaked. He is now on leave. See Also: President Donald Trump’s Voter Fraud Claims Could Lead To More Voter Suppression In June, a federal lawsuit was filed against Hamby in U.S. District Court in Atlanta for using racial slurs against Black workers at a construction site. Mary Ingram, 66, filed the lawsuit when she was fired in 2017 after working for the school district for nearly 20 years. AJC.com reports, “Ingram and Hamby clashed after she questioned why the color gold — representing the city’s Black school district before the system was integrated in 1969 — wasn’t included in the district’s green and white emblem. Ingram said an agreement had been reached decades ago to have gold incorporated into Buford schools’ colors.” In addition, “Ingram continued to receive write-ups over the next two years until June 14, 2017, when she was told she was fired. Her termination letter said she was ‘perceived as being disrespectful, argumentative and unfriendly and not a good fit in a school environment.’” Now it looks like Hamby will be jobless. In the audio, he says, “(Expletive) that (n-word). I’ll kill these (expletive) — shoot that (expletive) if they let me,” and “Don’t send us a deadbeat n—- from a temp service.” Listen below: LISTEN. A recording has recently been released from what is said to be from an Atlanta area school superintendent – Geye Hamby. In it, he repeatedly and casually refers to African Americans as niggers and even casually speaks about wanting to shoot some niggers. Via @AJC pic.twitter.com/qn9skkOYUz — Shaun King (@shaunking) August 24, 2018 It is not clear when Hamby made these comments. However, even with this clear audio, an attorney representing the school board said the board has “been unable to determine its veracity and authenticity and whether the recording was altered and was at the consent of at least one party or the product of illegal surveillance. Our investigation continues into this matter, but we are hamstrung in that the plaintiff has failed or refused to produce the original recording for testing or provide any information concerning the background or foundation of the recording,” according to AJC.com. Again, Hamby is on administrative leave. Hopefully, he never returns to the school district.

This Police Department Allows Officers To Use Tasers On 7-Year-Olds

Read the original:

D on’t be surprised if a Cincinnati police officer is not punished for firing a Taser at a child— because his department’s policy permits cops to taser kids. See Also: Mayor Investigating Police Tasing Of Unarmed Black Man Who Was Sitting On A Curb Local lawmakers demanded answers from the Cincinnati Police Department about why an officer tasered an 11-year-old girl at a Kroger supermarket on Monday (Aug. 6) for allegedly shoplifting, the Cincinnati Enquirer reported. “We’re still waiting on bits and pieces of information, but I could see no reason … why an 11-year-old child was tasered, given the circumstances, for shoplifting,” Cincinnati City Councilmember Jeff Pastor told WLWT-TV . Astonishingly, the department’s policy permits officers to use stun guns on individuals aged 7 to 70, according to the Enquirer. After reviewing Taser policies of several police departments around the country, Cincinnati’s rules appear unusual. #outraged ! I can't believe the Cincinnati Police used a taser on an 11 year old girl for stealing food from a Kroger store. pic.twitter.com/94sSfDDVn7 — Kym Tooson Poellnitz (@KymPoellnitz) August 8, 2018 An off-duty officer working security at the supermarket fired his Taser at the girl while investigating several girls accused of stealing from the store, the police reported. The cop fired at the child’s back after she continued to walk away, ignoring his orders. She was arrested and charged with theft and obstructing official business. Under the department’s policy, officers are permitted to use their stun guns “for self-defense or to temporarily immobilize a subject who is actively resisting arrest.” In addition to the age restrictions, Taser use is also banned on “obviously pregnant females.” All restrictions disappear if the officer is in a “deadly force situation.” Tasering the girl in the back would get the officer in trouble if he was working for the Chicago Police Department, which discouraged officers from shocking people who are fleeing or vulnerable to injury, according to a policy change announced in 2017 . But in Cincinnati, things are obviously different, as Police Chief Eliot Isaac  continues to deliberate over the matter. In the meantime, the girl, whose identity was not released, was evaluated at the Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center and released to her parents. She’s awaiting a courtroom appearance.

Johnny Depp: Amber Heard Punched Me In the Face Because I Was Late to Her Party

Johnny Depp has been in the news a lot lately and — spoiler alert! — it’s not because of his incredible career comeback. Quite the opposite in fact, as Depp’s torturously slow meltdown has made him a major tabloid staple in recent months. The Summer of Johnny Drama began when photos of Depp looking frail and gaunt made their way around social media. From there, we were treated to Depp’s bizarre Rolling Stone interview, in which it was revealed that he spends most of his time padding around a massive London mansion smoking hash and blaring Marilyn Manson, which is the ideal existence if you’re a 15-year-old goth, but is more than a little sad if you’re a 55-year-old dad getting stoned with people who are paid to hang out with you. Of course, the beginning of Depp’s very public downfall was his ugly divorce from Amber Heard . During the split, it was revealed that Depp was often abusive toward Heard, even going so far as to physically attack her in such brutal fashion that she was left bruised and bloody. After the split, Depp and Heard both signed non-disclosure agreements which prohibit them from speaking to the press about their marriage or divorce. Sounds like a net positive for Depp, but for some reason, the actor has decided to open the dark sarcophagus of his past and spill the foul red fluid of his sh-tty behavior all over an unsuspecting populace. Apparently, Johnny was extremely pissed off by a UK tabloid’s account of his marriage, and he’s decided to sue for libel. In doing so, he’s offered his version of events, which leans very heavily on the old “actually, she was the abuser!” narrative. According to court documents obtained by The Daily Mail , Depp claims Heard once humiliated him by drunkenly socking him in the face at her own birthday party. “Ms. Heard, who had been drinking, became aggressive and violent… punching him twice in the face,” Depp’s attorneys write. They go on to claim that Depp “defended himself by grabbing Ms. Heard’s arms to stop her punching again and told her to stop,” adding: “He pushed her away on to the bed and told her he was leaving and that she should not follow him.” Yes, Johnny’s playing the “real victim” card these days, and to the surprise of no one who’s not named Johnny Depp, it’s triggering bullsh-t detectors all over the world. In fact, the response from Amber’s lawyers basically consists of them going, “Look at this guy. You really gonna believe him?”  “These allegations are totally false,” their reply reads. “One needs only read the recent Rolling Stone article about Mr. Depp and the lawsuit filed against him by a location manager, among many other recent news stories and lawsuits, to understand his state of mind.” If Depp’s lawyers are smart they’ll just shrug and say touché . We’d almost feel bad for them … if they weren’t defending Johnny Depp. View Slideshow: Johnny Depp Opens Up About Drugs, Debt, Divorce In Bonkers Interview

Paul Walker Documentary Includes Previously Unseen Footage

Late last year, Meadow Walker settled her lawsuit with Porsche over the death of her father, the late, great Paul Walker. Now, his family and loved ones are honoring him with a documentary about him, titled I Am Paul Walker . In the trailer for it below, you can see previously unreleased footage of him. Take a look: After a glimpse of footage at a young teenage Paul getting nervous in front of a camera, his brother Cody Walker speaks. “He was a big kid,” Cody says of his dearly departed brother. “He was a big kid.” Director Wayne Kramer also speaks about Paul. “That guy made the best of every single minute,” Wayne says. Wayne continues, saying: “He lived five lifetimes.” Paul was also survived by his sister, who speaks about how she remembers him “He liked to go fast,” Ashe Walker says. “As soon as I was old enough to hold on tight, I was on the back of his bigwheel with him going for the ride of my life.” Oakley Lehman, a childhood friend and a stunt performer, speaks of Paul's complexity and apparent contradictions. “The gun-toting hippie,” Oakley says of his late friend, praising Paul as the “balance of opposites.” “You know?” Oakley continues. “A lover and a fighter.” Another childhood friend, Andy Muxlow, refers to Paul's perpetual free spirit. “He's definitely not a puppet,” Andy says. “You know?” Andy asks. “He's definitely not somebody that's gonna just be told to do something and then do it.” Director Rob Cohen says that, as much as fans grew to love Paul Walker through the camera, that barely scratched the surface on the man he knew. “Cinema didn't capture it all,” Rob laments. “Couldn't capture it all.” Rob summarizes Paul's priorities in life: “'My daughter, my surfing. That's the life. And that's what I care about.'” Matt Luber, Paul's manager, speaks about how Paul was not obsessed with is status as a celebrity or even as an actor. “Paul was always an actor who had one foot in and one foot out. He could just disappear,” Matt says. Caleb Walker, Paul's other brother, speaks of Paul's occassional impulses and fantasies of solitary anonymity. “He'd always say, like, 'I want to be a park ranger.' You know?” Caleb says. “Make 28 grand a year, live in the wilderness. That's really what he wanted to do.” Rhett Walker, Paul's uncle, gushes about the impact that his late nephew had on countless individuals. “I can actually say he did a lot of things that made a lot of difference in a lot of people's lives,” Rhett says. Not everyone can say the same. Tyrese Gibson is an actor and was one of Paul's costars in the Fast and Furious franchise. “He was a giver,” Tyrese says. “If you loved him the way we did, you would say 'Well, why him and not us?'” That is a normal way to grieve a lost friend. I Am Paul Walker premieres on August 11 at 9pm on the Paramount Network.

Eesh: Ed Sheeran Is Hit With Another Lawsuit For Allegedly Copying Marvin Gaye Song

Read this article:

Source: C Flanigan / Getty The folks behind Marvin Gaye ‘s “Let’s Get It On” are not playing with Ed Sheeran. In 2016, it was reported that the family of  Ed Townsend , the co-writer of the 1973 hit, were suing Ed. They claimed that his song  “Thinking Out Loud” sounded too similar to “Let’s Get It On.” Now, another party is trying to get into Ed’s wallet. According to TMZ , a company called Structured Asset Sales has filed a $100 million lawsuit against Ed, also claiming he ripped off Gaye’s famous song. Structured Asset Sales purchased one-third of “Let’s Get It On” so apparently, there was no way they were letting Ed Townsend’s camp get all the coins. According to their lawsuit, Ed’s song has the same rhythms, harmonies, melodies, bassline, drums, backing chorus, tempo, syncopation and looping as “Let’s Get It On.”   Well damn. Peep the two songs for yourself below if you need a refresher.   This isn’t the first time a Marvin Gaye song has been coming for someone’s coins. Let’s not forget the $7.5 million Pharrell and Robin Thicke were fined with for copyright infringement on Gaye’s “Got To Give It Up.” It seems when music artists go into the studio they should always ask themselves one question. Does this sound like a Marvin Gaye song???

Floyd Mayweather Wants Nelly And His Throwback GF Ashanti To Testify In Lawsuit Against Shantel Jackson For Swiping Thousands From Him

Floyd Mayweather To Question Nelly And Ashanti In Lawsuit As you’re likely well aware, Floyd Mayweather has been at odds with Nelly since the rapper began living with his ex Shantel “Miss Jackson” almost immediately after she left him. And now he’s using the legal system to exact revenge on the rapper. If you’ll recall, back in 2014, Shantel Jackson filed her own lawsuit against Floyd, alleging frequent assault and battery in their abusive relationship. She also sued for defamation and invasion of privacy, as he publicly aired out her medical records complete with photos to expose her plastic surgeries and an alleged abortion. Floyd then countersued Shantel late last year , claiming that she had fraudulently used his credit cards for high-priced purchases and straight-up stole money from him — preying on the fact that he only had an 8th grade education and also not enough sense to check his bank statements. Now, according to The Blast , Mayweather is taking things two petty steps forward in his case. As of April 20th, he filed documents intending to depose Nelly…AND his ex-girlfriend Ashanti in the case for proof of Miss Jackson’s supposed scammer antics. It’s not clear what information he would feel Ashanti had for the case, since she’s been done with Nelly since 2010 . But most likely, he wants to open up Nelly and his ex to embarrassing questions whose answers would be public record. The deposition is currently set for January of next year. SMH. Getty
