‘LHHMIAS2’ Recap: Pretty Ricky Still Can’t Get Right

Read the original here:

Source: Apega/WENN / WENN Veronica Vega is back on tonight’s episode of Love and Hip-Hop Miami . She’s determined to take control of her career after chatting with Polow Da Don. She’s tired of people having the wrong idea about her and wants to move past the controversy of “Pay Me,” the drama with Amara La Negra, etc. Luckily for her, Trick Daddy has taken a liking to her (not like that)  and wants to help. He set her up with an interview with Nore’s podcast, Drink Champs . Later on in the episode, she goes on the show and actually does well despite the fact that they pulled no punches with their line of questioning. Good for her. Bobby Lytes meets with his mom for advice. He wants to know if he should sign with Trina or go with Clear Vision Group. There are pros and cons for both. Trina said she wants to wait on having him sign paperwork and first sees how he does with putting out a single. Clear Vision group is ready to go full speed ahead. His mother says to go with Trina since she’s family and has more experience. Bobby Lytes has some thinking to do. Later on, he decides to sign with Clear Vision. We already knew he’d make the more controversial decision. Trina didn’t even know that deal was on the table. She definitely won’t be happy. Miami Tip had a meeting with Jullian and Amara La Negra and decided to be messy and bring Jessie Woo along. You already know Jessie didn’t hold back about how she thinks Jullian was feeding her ideas to Amara La Negra. Eventually, this ends in drama (of course). Jessie said she heard Amara was going around saying she was going to beat her arse then says that Amara’s mother, cousins and everyone can get it. We all know Amara doesn’t play about her mother so she pretends she’s actually going to pop off on Jessie but that tight Love and Hip-Hop Miami security swoops in and handles that. Then Amara acts all disappointed in herself, talking about how she doesn’t want to stoop to Jessie’s level, but she’s tired of people coming for her. Jullian talks her off the ledge and reminds her of her success and all the good things coming up. Baby Blue reached out to his father, Big Blue, to come back into the mix and whip Pretty Ricky back into shape. That sounds good in theory, but in practice, Big Blue isn’t even on good terms with the rest of Pretty Ricky, including his other son, Spectacular. As a matter of fact, Spectacular didn’t even invite him to his wedding. It’s also important to note that Spectacular didn’t even ask Baby Blue to be his best man. Basically, the rest of the group feels like Big Blue did not manage their money well. So let’s fast forward to the end of the episode. It’s the big chat with Big Blue and the rest of Pretty Ricky. Slick ‘Em start going in on Big Blue about finances first. Slick ‘Em said he’s still financially messed up from the group and doesn’t even have a bank account. Big Blue refuses to take responsibility for that. Then Spectacular chimes in and says that Pretty Ricky never got paid for all the touring they did. Then Big Blue tries to flip it on him and says that Spectacular has been making money off Pretty Ricky’s social media and shouldn’t talk. This is a mess. Spectacular starts yelling at his pops because he wishes he would just take responsibility for their financial ruin but Big Blue doesn’t like the way Spectacular is talking so now he and Spec go at it. These brothers legit threaten to beat each other up and that’s where the episode ends. We know security won’t let this go down but it’s high time for them to get a therapist. Where’s Dr. Jeff Gardere when we need him. RELATED POSTS ‘LHHMIAS2’ Recap: Shay Pops Off On Jojo For Breaking Girl Code ‘LHHMIAS2’ Recap: Trina Mediates A Peace Talk Between Joy And Shay

5 Reasons Why You Have To See One Of The Fyre Festival Documentaries

Go here to read the rest:

Over the weekend, social media exploded with the Fyre Festival. Not because there was a new one planned but because of the two documentaries, on Hulu and Netflix respectively released on January 14 and January 18th. Fyre Fraud on Netflix and Fyre Festival: The Greatest Party That Never Was show different sides of the fallout from the 2017 festival created by rapper Jah Rule and serial entrepreneur William “Billy” McFarland. Here are five reasons you should watch. (A picture is painted of the shenanigans that took place in each documentary but for the purposes of this story we are referencing the Netflix doc. 1.THE AUDACITY OF CAUCASITY:  William ‘Billy” McFarland is a scammer and a criminal mastermind. He is also now a convicted felon though six years seems too little for a man who ran multiple scams of which the Frye Festival was the largest.And all by 25 years old, mind you. The New Jersey native,  raised by parents that are real estate developers,  first ran a company called Magnesis that produced and provided access to luxury events. Through the connections he made there, McFarland creates an artist booking app and hooks up with rapper Jah Rule to conceive a luxury music festival on a private island in the Bahamas. Without ruining it for you, McFarland uses a shoot with top models and social media influencers to advertise the festival which sells out. With $27 M in hand, McFarland soon either finds himself in over his head, or he knows from the beginning he can’t pull it off, because one of the doc’s unanswered questions is if the money wasn’t used for booking acts for festival infrastructure, where did it go? 2. FOLLOW THE RULE  Rapper Jah Rule was the festival’s hype man and McFarland’s partner, who seems largely to have been used as celebrity bait. Somehow, even though the festival was geared to millennials, Rule had just enough star power to make it legit. But by the time the festival came to its inevitable downfall, you’re not sure how much he knew or didn’t know, especially as it seems he never actually makes it to the island on the day of the festival. After the docs aired, Rule born, Jeffrey Atkins says that he, too was hoodwinked, but there’s a scene in the doc that suggests once he knew the extent of the Fyre Festival deception, he was more interested in spinning it than making the situation right.   Haha nice try homie you ain’t getting the goods over Twitter… but I will tell my truth real soon… AND I HAVE RECEIPTS!!! https://t.co/O03JD3VQOl — Ja Rule (@Ruleyork) January 20, 2019   3. THE MODELS Had McFarland chosen to use his powers for good, The Fyre Festival could have been a huge success. Like many scammers, McFarland’s greatest talent was to convince a lot of people that nothing was something. A marketing video shot on the private island where the festival was initially supposed to take place on with top models/influencers Chanel Iman, Emily Ratajkowski, Hailey Baldwin Bieber, Kendall Jenner, Bella Hadid went viral. Those models have now been  subpoenaed about their participation for the bankruptcy case arising from the failed festival. McFarland also reportedly paid influencer Jenner $250K for the orange square post that when simultaneously posted by an army of influencers also went viral and created demand for tickets, despite the fact that the advertised acts would have barely sold out a day at Made In America or any other U.S. festival. 4.FOMO IS REAL  FOMO,  the condition known as “Fear Of Missing Out”  was apparently the impetus for thousands to sell out the festival days after it was advertised. That was one of the things that may have made McFarland decide that the stress of actually putting on a festival and the work and money it required would have been too hard, when just keeping the money would be easier. Once the marketing effort was over with, the doc is a descent into chaos that seems very clearly was never going to be pulled off. Aside from the questions of funding, organization and infrastructure, there was also just plain bad juju that hovered over the festival in its planning stages. Despite the young talent McFarland amassed to build the artist booking app that was to become and integral part of Fyre Media pre-and post festival, they were mostly wasted as the festival, the app and the company were all casualties of the mess he created. 5. WHAT PEOPLE DO FOR WATER Event producer Andy King will go down in documentary history as the individual most willing to take one for the team. His testimony about what happened when the Bahamian government denied festival organizer access to four trucks filled with Evian water became meme and social media gold after the doc aired. We won’t spoil it for you here but let’s just say, if you had to pull off a near impossible event with little resources and an egomaniacal con man at the helm, he’s the guy you want. Here are the trailers for both docs:     Which one are you checking out? PHOTO: Netflix     HEAD BACK TO THE BLACKAMERICAWEB.COM HOMEPAGE

‘LHHNYS9’ Recap: MariahLynn Says To Take Yandy With A ‘Salt of Grain’

Read more:

Source: Albert L. Ortega / Getty Tonight’s episode of Love and Hip-Hop New York is all drama and heartbreak. The drama is all the typical stuff we’re used to. But the heartbreak is all about Miracle’s case. It’s looking like she might be going to jail but hold that thought. First, we start the episode with Jonathan waiting to get some botox done. He introduces Sidney Starr to MariahLynn as they wait with him in the lobby. Two seconds after introducing Sidney, Jonathan starts with the mess. He prompts Sidney to explain her situation with Nya Lee to MariahLynn. Basically, Sidney Starr said she felt like Nya Lee was attacking her womanhood. Jonathan says he understands but doesn’t think Nya Lee meant to come off that way (it does seem like Sidney is being sensitive). Jonathan has a bright idea for all of them to get out of the city on the weekend. The plan is to visit a wine vineyard upstate and have a good time. Suuuuuure. This is going to go well. Let’s fast forward to the vineyard. Sidney Starr rides up with Kimbella and Cyn Santana, who are just meeting her. You know Sidney Starr can be intense, however, Kimbella and Cyn actually listen to her as she tells her side of the story and reserve their judgment. Jonathan didn’t tell Nya Lee that he invited Sydney, but luckily Nya Lee manages to not have a meltdown at the sight of Sidney. Nya Lee’s plan is to just ignore, ignore, ignore. However, things take a left turn swiftly when Sidney pulls Nya Lee aside to ask for another chance, but Nya doesn’t think she’s sincere and that she’s just trying to use her…since she’s soooo connected in the industry. Nya also isn’t ready to talk to Sidney so she gets annoyed by Sidney’s repeated attempts to get back into her good graces. It really just seems like Sidney is trying too hard to fit in but these low emotional IQ people can’t really see that. Let’s fast forward some more. At this point, the group is stomping grapes and Sidney just won’t leave Nya Lee alone. She says she misses Nya Lee’s friendship. Cyn messy arse chimes in, asking why Sidney bucked at her that time. Sidney said she bucked at Nya to make her shut up. That triggers Nya, and she starts yelling at Sidney and really coming off like a bully. She gets in Sidney’s face and says she wants to check her but Sidney clearly doesn’t want to fight. They’re finally separated and we try to move on. Jonathan, Nya Lee, MariahLynn and Kimbella are left sitting together now (Cyn went to check on Sidney) and MariahLynn and Kimbella randomly start talking about the Yandy adoption situation. Both women are bothered by it because they think Yandy is fake and doing this for attention. MariahLynn even tells Jonathan to take Yandy’s moves with this adoption situation with a “salt of grain.” A salt of grain. Um, what? And you know what? She paused long enough for someone to correct her. No one did. Jonathan is still cool with Yandy, feels no type of way about her, and really wishes they’d shut up about her. Kimbella gets irritated with Jonathan defending Yandy so she walks away from the conversation. Jonathan says if he has to choose a side he’s always going to choose Yandy. Mariah feels some type of way about that. Basically, Jonathan is speaking hypothetically, but MariahLynn feels like he actually just told her to go somewhere (which he really didn’t). Then Nya Lee says jokingly that he’s only going to be in a tough situation if he has to choose between her and Yandy. Again, this is all hypothetical but it triggers MariahLynn so she storms away in a huff talking about how she doesn’t need friends because she has herself. Nya Lee, taken aback by MariahLynn’s tantrum, replies, “Oooh child” and that sets MariahLynn off (to be fair, MariahLynn was already annoyed with Nya Lee from how she treated Sidney Starr earlier). They get to arguing. Mariah Lynn is irritated that Nya was so quick to try to fight. Nya is annoyed because MariahLynn was, “Trying to test her gangsta.” Yeah, they’re both goofy. Anyway, Jonathan says MariahLynn is at fault for this situation for taking something personal that wasn’t about her. It’s all good though because you know that bomb Love and Hip-Hop security got the situation handled. Meanwhile, Nya Lee starts crying because “She let MariahLynn get her out of character and that he’s embarrassed because she’s trying to be better. Self-control is free. Anyway, now we get to the heartbreak. Rich Dollaz flew down to Mississippi to be present for Miracle’s hearing. It looks like things aren’t going to go well. She doesn’t have to go in front of the judge at the moment because the judge said she’s not comfortable offering a plea deal right now. In other words, there is no plea deal so Miracle has to go to trial. If she loses, and she might, because you know how these things go, she faces 2-20 years. It’s the State versus Miracle, not even the man she shot most likely in self-defense. The lawyer says Miracle has a strong case, but Rich brings up a good point—the State is not about to waste all this money on trial and not get something back from Miracle.

SMH: CBS Rejects Super Bowl Ad Calling For The Legalization of Medical Marijuana

Source: MediaNews Group/Boulder Daily Camera via Getty Images / Getty Super Bowl Commercial For Medical Marijuana Shut Down Though The NFL and the Super Bowl in particular are known for running huge ads about alcohol, it looks like they’re not quite ready to put their money behind medical marijuana . According to reports from  Bloomberg , Acreage Holdings claims that  CBS  cut a medical marijuana ad from the televised portion of the Super Bowl after viewing a rough outline of the commercial. The multi-state marijuana company tells the publication that the goal of the advertisement was to “create an advocacy campaign for constituents who are being lost in the dialogue” and thought that the most-watched event of the year could help push this same narrative. Although medical marijuana is legal in over 30 states as of now, federal restrictions hinder many from actually obtaining their cannabis. Let’s look at Oklahoma, for example. Even though medical marijuana is legal in the state, the  Tulsa World  reports that it is against the law for a doctor to actually prescribe the substance. This is due to the fact that marijuana is still classified by the federal government as a schedule one controlled substance–which means doctors are prohibited from discussing strains and dosages with their patients as that would be considered aiding and abetting, which is punishable by law. These nuanced–and quite frankly, confusing–difficulties that occur around the country are the reason that many feel the commercial would have been informative and beneficial airing during the Super Bowl. Now, fans are calling out the league’s hypocrisy for choosing not to air the ad because, like we mentioned before, the big game is known for giving tons of air time to beer. And we all know network television has no problem airing commercials for prescription drugs. So the game sponsored by the alcohol industry that consists of people beating the crap out of each other and which turns a blind eye to domestic violence now has the moral high ground to decide that a little green plant used for medicine is too much for viewers to handle.

Larissa Dos Santos Lima: Charged with Domestic Violence for Alleged Attack Against Husband

It’s official: Larissa Dos Santos Lima is facing a domestic violence charge for allegedly attacking husband Colt Johnson last week. The criminal complaint – which comes on the heels of an ugly and well-publicized fight between the 90 Day Fiance stars – states that Larissa “did willfully and unlawfully use force or violence against or upon the person of her spouse.” TMZ has obtained the complaint and was the first website to publish this excerpt from it. The charge is a misdemeanor and was filed Wednesday in Vegas. As we’ve documented in detail, Larissa was taken into custody very early last Friday morning after some sort of confrontation with Johnson that resulted in his bloody lip. Larissa also shared a number of photos online that allegedly depicted what Johnson had done to her face — but police on the scene determined these wounds (such as the one below) were self-inflicted. Just hours after his wife was arrested, Johnson filed for divorce. We’ve seen reported on how Colt is trying to expediate this process, telling a judge he doesn’t want spousal support and that the couple owned no joint property… … and that he basically wants to be done with Larissa as quickly as legally possible . The TLC personalities had made plenty of headlines together long before this unfortunate incident. Late last year, Johnson admitted to having cheated on his wife; while Larissa was also arrested on a domestic battery charge in November, although it was eventually dropped. In this latest instance, Johnson told cops Larissa became enraged after learning he subscribed to an adult entertainment website. She accused him of cheating again.  According to the police report, Colt said Larissa had downed half a bottle of antidepressants and was suicidal . View Slideshow: Larissa Lima Shares Shocking Photos of Bloody Fight With Colt Johnson; 90 Day Fiance Star Arrested [BREAKING] For her part, Larissa alleged that Colt was the aggressor, scratching her in the face and on her torso. However, cops investigated both sides and believed that Johnson was telling the truth; hence the arrest last Friday around 5 a.m. In the days since this violent back-and-forth, both Colt and Larissa have posted messages on Instagram. The former explained to followers how he simply doesn’t understand Dos Santos Lima and said he has paid for absolutely everything on her behalf since she moved to America. Here is a snippet of what he wrote online after filing for divorce: Larissa, meanwhile, tried to start a GoFundMe account so that fans could help pay for her split and her “new life.” But those behind this fundraising service took down her page for some reason. “Thank you all who donated on my go fund me campaign. I raised the money I need! When I feel better I will make a video to thank you and I will mention every single donor,” she wrote on Instagram on Saturday, sharing that she had a court date for Febriary 12. This is what she had previously written about the situation on her social media account: Johnson and Dos Santos Lima married last June after meeting on an online dating website. He proposed after a mere 11 days together, after which she moved (from Brazil) to Las Vegas to be with him. Their relationship was documented on season six of 90 Day Fiance, the reality program that follows couples who have applied for or received a K-1 visa available to foreign fiances of US citizens. They then have 90 days to decide to marry before the visa expires and the foreign half must leave the nation. View Slideshow: 90 Day Fiance: Most Shocking Scandals Exposed!

Jameela Jamil Blasts Khloe Kardashian: Stop Fat-Shaming Women!

Jameela Jamil’s one-woman crusade against the weight loss industry continues. The The Good Place star’s latest target is a social media influencer who needs no introduction: Khloe Kardashian. Is Jameela’s criticism a rare miss, or is she right on the money? Khloe Kardashian took to Instagram on Thursday to share one of those goofy text posts that are designed to be relatable to people of every age. “2 things a girl wants,” the post begins with white text on a soft pink background. The text reads: “1) lose weight 2) eat.” Those two activities are often seen as contradictory. Losing weight is often a social pressure or personal desire, often to meet certain beauty standards. Eating, of course, is required for people to live. It is also intensely enjoyable. Those who eat less in order to lose weight or wish that they could bring themselves to do so could relate to Khloe’s post. On Twitter, Jameela Jamil was not amused by Khloe’s Instagram Story. “This makes me sad,” Jameela expressed. “I hope,” she wrote, that “my daughter grows up wanting more than this.” Jameela added: “I want more than this.” Alongside her tweet, she included a screenshot of Khloe’s post. Jameela made it clear that she does not harbor any ill will towards Khloe. “Sending love to this poor woman,” she emphasized. “This industry did this to her,” Jameela accused. “The media did it to her.” She wrote: “They fat shamed her into a prison of self critique.” “Dear girls,” Jameela concluded. “WANT MORE THAN THIS.” She finished her tweet with a large red heart emoji. Jameela Jamil has been taking aim at a number of celebrities on social media. In particular, she has excoriated those who promote weight-loss products. From “fit tea” to appetite suppressing lollipops, she sees social media influencers push these products upon young and impressionable followers. In real life, of course, these products often do little more than cause diarrhea. These are not the tools that wealthy influencers use to keep their bodies slender. For that, they have nutritionists, personal trainers, and sometimes even surgery. There is no “weight-loss secret.” it’s money. Just like with everything else. And Jameela doesn’t want to see young people damage their health because they think that they’re simply not trying hard enough. One might ask what Jameela, one of the most beautiful human beings on the planet, could possibly know about body image issues. The answer is: quite a lot. She has been open about her own experience with eating disorders, and revealed that even her reproductive organs were damaged by it. Even now, she says that makeup technicians have offered to hide stretch marks on her boobs. She is a model and actress, so she knows that she is in the spotlight. Fortunately, she can now handle it. Her concern is for countless impressionable young women (and men and those who are neither) who are so desperate to be thin that they’ll try anything. Jameela points out that widespread bullying is what pushed Khloe to transform her look. Khloe is fitness-obsessed these days. That was not always the case. In that accusation, we’d say that perhaps Jameela went a little too far. (I love Jameela, but she sounded a little patronizing — it’s not her or anyone’s place to speak for Khloe and her weight-loss motives) But given the scope of Khloe’s influence, being constructively critical of her post was extremely fair.
