Momager Charli Baltimore Talks New Reality Show On BOSSIP—But What About A Murder Inc. Reunion Tour?

Charlie Baltimore’s New Reality Show “Charli Knows Best” Will Premiere On BOSSIP Charli Baltimore is back from her break out of the spotlight with a new show, a new tour – and is bringing her adult daughters along for the ride. Femme fatale Baltimore, who was born Tiffany Lane, just wrapped her new show, “Charli Knows Best” which shows a side of her that viewers may have never seen before – a momager. “Charli Knows Best” will follow Charli and her daughters India and Siaani as she helps them launch careers in fashion and entertainment. The “Down A** Chick” rapper sat down with us to talk about her projects and what she thinks about the new crop of rappers out today. You can check out a clip of her new show above. BOSSIP: What have you been up to since we last heard from you? Charlie Baltimore: “After I left Murder Ink I was with a couple of other labels…I did a lot of behind the scenes writing for other artists and I realized I actually preferred that instead of being front and center all the time, and I kind of just fell back and focused on my daughters and their careers, and that’s what got us to this point.” BOSSIP: Tell us about “Charli Knows Best.” What will we get to see? CB: “It’s really funny, showing you the dynamics between me and my daughters. And I guess with me being such a young mom when I had them, we kind of grew up together. Our relationship can vary from mom and daughter to friends at times. We argue we fight, we make up – whatever! There’s such a bad stigma attached to mothers who had their kids young, like ‘You’re not gonna grow up to be s**t, you’re gonna be on welfare,’ and that’a not true. If you put your mind to something…you can definitely make a way.”

Barbarians: Nicki Minaj Fans Are Celebrating Cardi B Turning Herself In To Police Like Straight Up Savages

Jackson Lee / SplashNews.com /Nancy Rivera/Bauer-Griffin/GC Images Barbz Celebrate Cardi’s Legal Troubles In case you missed it, Cardi B turned herself in to the NYPD for allegedly sending goons to beat up a bartender at a strip club. This story broke a few weeks ago. Since that moment, Cardi also got into a huge kerfuffle with Nicki Minaj at New York Fashion Week, officially jumpstarting their full-fledged feud. The war is on. Fast forward a couple of weeks later and Nicki Minaj was on her radio show putting Cardi’s strip club fight on blast. Some Cardi fans are under the belief that Nicki putting the fight on those airwaves made it hot for Cardi, thus solidifying Nicki’s supposed status as a snitch. That’s quite the far-fetched premise, but this feud knows no rationality. Nicki told no lies about Cardi B. pic.twitter.com/ED0Frwn7dd — Nicki Minaj News (@NickiReignsCom) October 1, 2018 Which means that the Barbz have their line in the sand: they’re going to happily clown Cardi’s problems. The feud is on and this is getting spicyyyyyyy. Take a look:

Damon Wayans Jr. & ‘Basketball Wives’ Aja Metoyer In Custody Battle

Source: Tony Forte/WENN / WENN Damon Wayans Jr. is currently in the middle of a custody battle with the daughter of his mother, Aja Metoyer, and she’s preparing to fight back. Wayans has requested primary custody of the pair’s two teen daughters, which Metoyer, who stars on Basketball Wives , says is a ploy for the actor to pay less in child support. The Blast reports : Sources close to Metoyer tell The Blast she’s lawyered up and is prepared to square off against Wayans, who is requesting primary physical custody of their teenage daughters. He claims Metoyer isn’t taking the kid’s education seriously, and believes she’s doing them harm. However, Metoyer’s legal team tells us they find it “curious” Wayans is making a request for more custody right as he’s also launching a new “lucrative” primetime network show, “Happy Together.” We’re told Metoyer and her legal team believe Wayans only wants more custody to avoid paying more in child support, because in California child support is commonly established based on the income of the highest earning parent and the percentage of custody they have. Some might know that Metoyer is the mother of a son she gave birth to in 2013 with Dwyane Wade. — Photo: WENN

Noah Cyrus and Lil Xan: It’s Over… and It’s Very Ugly!

It’s all over for Noah Cyrus and Lil Xan. The romance between these stars, that is. But the accusations of infidelity being hurled back and forth? Those are just beginning. The artists had only been together for a month or so, with Cyrus quick to correct some rumors about the now-failed romance upon alerting her 4.4 million Instagram followers that it has come to an end. “first and foremost: this relationship was not set up by Columbia Records. to say that is [a] joke,” the 18-year old wrote late Monday, adding: “it started when I got a DM from Diego [Lil Xan’s real name is Diego Leanos] and he asked me to hang out. the truth is I haven’t seen him in almost a week. every time we tried to hang out something always got in the way.” So it sounds like the relationship didn’t work because of timing and scheduling issues, right? WRONG! Lil Xan, who sources claim is some kind of rapper, wrote yesterday that he was “probably cheated on,” while Cyrus even broke down in tears on her Story. Noah later explained that she “noticed a hickey” on her boyfriend’s neck during a recent FaceTime call. AWKWARD! “he told me it was just a bruise,” she wrote. “i decided to give him the benefit of the doubt and ignored it.” The actress continued: “cheaters like to accuse their partners of cheating to make themselves feel less guilt. “this isn’t the first time this has happened to me and now im being forced to deal with crazy accusations when im not even sure where all this came from.” Cyrus went on explain that, in her view, she was there for Lil Xan “dark times.” She added: “when you felt alone and like no one was there for you, I was. if this was your way of breaking up with me and breaking my heart along with it, then you’ve succeeded.” Damn. Poor Noah. Where does Lil Xan fall on the issue of cheating? On the opposite side of Cyrus, that’s for sure. He shared a photo of Cyrus with her arms wrapped around another man and captioned the post: “call me whatever but if you my girl you ain’t touching no dude like that sorry haha.” In a video posted on his story, Lil Xan concluded: “It just hurts, like, so f-cking bad. You think you know somebody, and then you just get used.” The stars have since unfollowed each other on Instagram. It really does appear to be over, folks.

90 Day Fiance Spoilers: Is One Couple Already Married?!

Last month, we reported that 90 Day Fiance stars Jon and Rachel got married . Not every couple is ready for the altar after 90 days, but documents showed that they had tied the knot. Now, Jon seems to be hinting to followers that he and Rachel did get married. Take a look: “On the 20th December 2017,” Jon’s Instagram post begins. The fact that he thought that the date was significant really piqued the interest of a lot of fans. On that date, Jon writes: “Rachel and I walked down the aisle in a small 12th church.” Obviously, walking down the aisle is a significant phrase. It’s a euphemism for marriage. He says that this took place “in a small undisclosed location.” Jon’s next words show that he may have been simply teasing their fans. “The church was open to the public,” Jon continues. Well, if it was open to the public, then it sounds like the two of them may have simply walked in, walked around, and left. “After a short walk around the church,” he says. Jon concludes the anecdote: “We went and had a nice hot cuppa.” Getting married in December would have been sort of sudden. It is believed that 90 Day Fiance began filming for this season during the 2017 holiday season. Of course, there are those who believe that Jon and Rachel secretly met before filming for the show. If so, the marriage in December would not have been that sudden, right? Fortunately, we know the truth, thanks to some cyber sleuths on the internet and some court documents. Johnathan James Walters and Rachel Ann Bear have been in an online relationship for ages. The show teased that they would have hurdles and conflicts to overcome. But considering that Rachel learned that she was pregnant with another man’s child very early during her long-distance relationship without it breaking them up shows how much they like each other. Legal documents show that the two of them applied for a marriage license in Arizona, where Rachel is from, back in June. And British records show that the two of them solemnized their marriage while still in the UK — back in May. Jon and Rachel have fewer obstacles than some 90 Day Fiance couples. They don’t have a language barrier — well, except for a few goofy British phrases that your friend who gets way too into watching BBC America used and then dropped back in 2012. They don’t have to deal with racist backlast like some of the biracial couples face from their own families. They are also almost exactly the same age. It wouldn’t have been the biggest surprise in the world if they’d gotten married in December, but that they appear to have waited until the beginning of summer shows that they were serious about getting to know each other in person. That sounds like a very healthy sign to us. We’re sure that Jon is only teasing his fans because he is so eager to announce that they married.

The men had “willfully caused bodily injury” to an African-American man in a 7-Eleven convenience store parking lot in Biddeford on April 15 because of the man’s race, according to the indictment. The defendants allegedly drove a truck at a fast speed into the lot while the victim was walking outside the store. Diggins exited the vehicle and repeatedly referred to the victim as a racial slur; he also blocked the victim from entering the store. Leo then walked behind the man and struck him forcefully in the head. The two then allegedly followed and shouted racial slurs at the victim as he ran away, the indictment said. Both the FBI and Biddeford Police Department investigated the incident. Diggins “adamantly denied” any wrongdoing, his attorney told  The Associated Press.

South Carolina Woman Drives Drunk, Says She’s Too "White" to Get Arrested

A resident of Bluffton, South Carolina was pulled over for reckless driving last Saturday morning and arrested on a number of charges. This, despite the fact that she was white. That statement may seem like a ridiculous non-sequitor, but it was actually the argument used by Lauren Elizabeth Cutshaw at the time over her run-in with the law. As documented by The New York Post, the 32-year old was caught by police officers blowing through a four-way stop sign at 60 miles per hour around 1:45 a.m. on August 4. With eyes described in the official report as bloodshot and glossy, Cutshaw told the cops that she had only two glasses of wine. But she was allegedly slurring her words and there was a strong scent of alcohol emanating from the vehicle. “I mean, I was celebrating my birthday,” Cutshaw told the cops when they asked her how big the glasses were for her pair of drinks, according to the report. This is a rather aburd excuse for two reasons: Her birthday is on August 9.  One’s birthday is not an excuse for breaking the law. But this seemingly typical arrest has gone viral for a different reason. Cutshaw gave the officers what she believes were perfectly reasonable explanations for why they shouldn’t place her under arrest. To wit: She maintained perfect grades during all of her school years… she was a cheerleader … she was a member of a sorority. Oh, and also: “I’m a white, clean girl,” Cutshaw said, according to the report. For some reason, however, this defense did not mean anything to the arresting officers. When the officers asked what, exactly, Lauren meant by this announcement, she replied: “You’re a cop, you should know what that means.” (Translation: You guys only shoot and harass black people. So come on! Give me a break! ) What did mean something to these authority figures? The fact that Cutshaw failed sobriety tests; and that a breathalyzer showed that her blood alcohol at the time was .18 percent (the legal limit in South Carolina is 0.08 percent). The report actually cited Cutshaw’s “white” remark, noting:  “Making statements such as these as a means to justify not being arrested are unusual in my experience as a law enforcement officer and I believe further demonstrate the suspect’s level of intoxication.” And also of her white privilege. In the end, Lauren was booked on charges of speeding, disregarding a stop sign, simple possession of marijuana, driving under the influence and possession of drug paraphernalia.

Jimmy Fallon Donates To RAICES Following Donald Trump’s Tweet Telling Him To “Be A Man”

Read the original post:

Source: Handout / Getty It was nearly two years ago that a lot of people turned on Jimmy Fallon after an episode of The Tonight Show that many viewed as the normalization of a monster. Last week, Fallon revealed in an  episode  of The Hollywood Reporter’s podcast “Awards Season” that the 2016 gag where he rubbed Donald Trump ‘s hair and the following media backlash changed his life. Jimmy Fallon opens up about how “devastated” he was from the fallout of his 2016 Trump interview https://t.co/YkEmf23NVh — Vulture (@vulture) June 23, 2018 It looks like Trump caught wind of the news that Fallon wasn’t happy about his disowning of the incident, and of course, he had to tweet about it. He went off on the late night host demanding he, “be a man” about the situation, even though he took so much heat. . @jimmyfallon is now whimpering to all that he did the famous “hair show” with me (where he seriously messed up my hair), & that he would have now done it differently because it is said to have “humanized” me-he is taking heat. He called & said “monster ratings.” Be a man Jimmy! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 25, 2018 Jimmy Fallon is known to be non-confrontational to a fault–which is what got him in the “humanizing” incident in the first place–so many didn’t even expect him to reply, but he did so perfectly. In response to being told to be a man, Fallon announced that he would be making a donation to RAICES in Donald Trump’s name. The Refugee and Immigrant Center For Education and Legal Services is an advocacy group that has been at forefront of the fight to reunite  detained undocumented immigrant families  in the wake of Trump’s zero tolerance policy at the U.S.-Mexico border. In honor of the President’s tweet I’ll be making a donation to RAICES in his name. — jimmy fallon (@jimmyfallon) June 25, 2018 Jimmy might not have won back all of the viewers he upset back in 2016, but this is definitely a step in the right direction.
