Porsha Williams’ Fiancé Denies Rumors He’s Been Cheating

Source: Marcus Ingram / Getty It’s not a secret that Dennis McKinley and  Porsha Williams‘ relationship is on the rocks, but McKinley is denying that any of their problems are a result of infidelity. See, it all started when YouTuber Tasha K accused the 38-year-old of having an affair with “WAGS Atlanta” star Sincerely Ward . According to Page Six , the RHOA reality star and his rep claim he’s never met Ward and they plan to take legal action. “These false and slanderous allegations against me are made solely to damage my reputation, jeopardize my ongoing businesses, and negatively impact my family,” McKinley said. “My attempts to ignore this slander have only empowered Latasha Kebe (aka Tasha K.) to create more false accusations. I am currently taking legal action — and am currently being represented by Michael T. Sterling of Dreyer Sterling, LLC.” McKinley’s lawyer added, “I handle legal matters in the court of law, not the court of public opinion and I will take whatever appropriate measures I can to defend Dennis’ good name.” Ward also swears this rumor is a bold-faced lie and that she wouldn’t get involved with type of “trash.” “I literally have absolutely no clue [how this rumor started]. I just noticed maybe a couple days ago, like weird ghost accounts started coming after me or saying, ‘I’m happy for you and Dennis’ and some weird stuff,’” she told Page Six. “Number one, I know Porsha and I respect Porsha and I would never be involved in this kind of trash. Number two, I’ve never met this guy a day in my life … I don’t know how my name got thrown into it.” Here are some pics of Ward: View this post on Instagram #FBF to #atlantacarnival2019 last week with my little cousin Millie and Mz Shyneka!

The influencer claims she received the information about the alleged affair from a well-trusted source. In a different video, Tasha K. accused McKinley “is allegedly a get-rich-quick scheme artist,” allegedly a coke head” and “allegedly a woman beater.” So messy!!! As we know, in March Porsha welcomed Pilar Jhena . The RHOA star has yet to confirm if she is still with the father of her child.

Source: Michael Kovac / Getty JAY-Z continues to put past beefs behind him with the help of others. Apparently Jim Jones was the plug so the Brooklyn MC could patch up his differences with Cam’ron. As spotted on  Complex Elliott Wilson and B-Dot hosted Jones for a second time on their Rap Radar podcast. While the two journalists have yet to release the episode in full, a teaser already has the internets buzzing about this appearance. The clip in question shows the hosts expressing their individual gratitude for the multiple magical moments Hov provided the crowd at his recent B-Sides concert at Webster Hall . Naturally, the topic of Cam’ron hitting the stage came up and come to find out Jim played a big hand in bringing the two former rivals together. “I got a call saying JAY about to do a special B-side concert,” Jones explained. “And I’m like ‘Cool, can I get some tickets? What’s up?’ I thought that was the call that he was pulling up. They like ‘Yo, he wants to perform Welcome to New York City.’” As the conversation progressed it dawned on Jim that he had to step up for the culture. “They asked me and now I’m like ‘Come on, don’t do this to me,’” he said. “Like, why y’all putting me under this one? Like I’m just listening and in my mind I’m like f*ck it. I’m just asking a question [to Cam]. He’s going to say ‘yeah’ or he’s going to say ‘no’. But in my mind I’m like…if you know Cam this could…cause some sh*t…or…might not even sweat it. Might just say some slick sh*t and leave it alone and all that sh*t. So…yeah, hopefully he like ‘yup.’” According to Capo the call was an easy one to make as Killa clearly has evolved. “Right after I got the call I called him, I said ‘Yo, JAY is doing the B-Side concert, right?’ [Cam] like ‘Yeah.’ [And I say] ‘He trying to perform Welcome to New York City’ and they wanted me to know if maybe you might just want to perform. You know, I don’t know, you know I’m just trying to do what I do.’ He like, ‘Yeah run it. Let’s do it.’ No word on when this episode will drop but in the meantime check out Jim’s hilariously comical appearance on Full Size Run . — Photo: Prince Williams/WireImage

Jet Life Creative Director CJ Wallis Told To Hold Off From Producing Mac Miller Doc

See original here:

Source: Jessica Alexander/Future Image/WENN.com / WENN The Hip-Hop world lost one of its most talented acts in Mac Miller last year, and the void left by the Pittsburgh artist has been massive. Jet Life Creative Director CJ Wallis announced he was putting together footage for an upcoming documentary to honor the life of the late rapper. Deadline reports : Filmmaker and Jetlife Creative Director CJ Wallis announced today via Twitter that Margrette Bird Pictures, a film company he found with Mallory Kennedy, is working on a documentary about the late rapper Mac Miller. “So, over the next year I’m going to start collecting interviews & content to make the definitive @MacMiller documentary for his family, friends & fans,” he tweeted Monday morning. Wallis then encouraged everyone to share the post and tag anyone who would be good to interview for the docu. The outlet adds that Wallis, who has worked alongside Curren$y and Jet Life affiliates Wiz Khalifa among others, wanted to put out the film via New Orleans-based Margrette Bird Pictures at an upcoming later date. However, the family has asked Wallias and Margrette Bird Pictures to hold off on the project. UPDATE: We tweeted our intentions to begin developing a doc on Mac over the next year. At the same time, we reached out to all those closest to him to begin the process of making it official. 1/4 — FORTYFPS FILMS (@fortyfps) June 4, 2019 We heard back from @christianclancy & The Estate who said the family has requested we hold off on the project at this time. We immediately compiled as the last thing we'd want is to negatively impact anyone involved, quite the opposite. 2/4 — FORTYFPS FILMS (@fortyfps) June 4, 2019 We felt comfortable announcing our intentions in advance of receiving permission because they were just that – intentions. The concept was peers telling their one favorite Mac story & cutting them together as a motivational & positive picture. Not a life story. 3/4 — FORTYFPS FILMS (@fortyfps) June 4, 2019   The outpouring of support for the doc and that it was us trying to make one was humbling, and in time perhaps we will get to see it through. For now, we have hours of incredible music and thats always been more than enough. Respect/Love…. #ripmac — FORTYFPS FILMS (@fortyfps) June 4, 2019 — Photo: WENN

18 & Gone: Apple Getting Rid of iTunes, To Replace It With Separate Apps

Source: Thomas Trutschel / Getty After 18 long years of existence, Apple is finally getting rid of iTunes. Bloomberg reports the company is phasing out the tool that Mac users have utilized to help manage their music, watch movies, and TV shows. The decision to trash iTunes is on par with Apple’s new vision for its future when it comes to its gadgets. Now there will be separate apps for users to listen to music, watch movies and TV and listen to podcasts. You will still be able to manage your Apple gadget through the music app. The announcement of the move came on the heels of Apple’s upcoming WWDC where the company is expected to confirm the decision and announce how it plans to move going forward. Per Bloomberg : iTunes has been the way Apple users listen to music, watch movies and TV shows, hear podcasts, and manage their devices for almost two decades. This year, Apple is finally ready to move into a new era. The company is launching a trio of new apps for the Mac – Music, TV, and Podcasts – to replace iTunes. That matches Apple’s media app strategy on iPhones and iPads. Without iTunes, customers can manage their Apple gadgets through the Music app.  Well if you were looking to blow the dust off your iTunes to help manage your new iPod Touch , then you won’t receive this news too well. 18 years is a long time for an app, so the app is rare air when it comes to outlasting the competition. iTunes had a hell of a run though, never forget. — Photo: Thomas Trutschel / Getty

The Shooter: 8th Defendant In Tekashi 6ix9ine Case Pleads Guilty

Excerpt from:

Source: Michael Campanella / Getty The Feds have Tekashi69 and his affiliates in their sights , and they continue to drop. Another defendant in the conspiracy case against the Brooklyn rapper has pleaded guilty. By the reports, this guy was “The Shooter.” Reports Complex : On Monday, Kintea “Kooda B” McKenzie, became the eighth defendant in the 6ix9ine racketeering case to plead guilty, according to court documents. The defendant appeared in Manhattan District Court for his alleged connection to the shooting of Chief Keef outside the W Hotel in Times Square. McKenzie pleaded guilty to assault with a dangerous weapon in aid of racketeering, which carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison. Kooda allegedly accepted a $10,000 payment from 6ix9ine for carrying out the shooting in June 2018. In his guilty plea in January, 6ix9ine admitted to his role in the attack and named McKenzie as the shooter. However, in February, Kooda was granted bail despite the mounting evidence against him. Unlike many of the other defendants in the case, McKenzie is not suspected of being a member of the Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods. Interestingly, despite being named the shooter, McKenzie was granted bail earlier this year. “Today, Kintea McKenzie admitted his responsibility for a brazen shooting in bustling Times Square,” U.S. Attorney Geoffrey S. Berman said in a statement. “In coordination with Tekashi 6ix9ine and other Nine Trey gang members, McKenzie arranged to have another individual shoot at a rival gang member. We continue our daily work with our law enforcement partners to keep our communities safe and to vigorously investigate acts of violence committed by gang members.” Reportedly, the Feds pegged McKenzie to the scene via DNA evidence found on a discarded water bottle. Yeah, if the Feds want you, and you actually did dirt, you may want to take that plea deal. — Photo: Getty

Tell The Truth And Shame The Devil: Malika Asks Khloe If She’s Still In Love With Tristan [VIDEO]

Source: SPW / SplashNews / Splash News Khloe Admits She’s Having Issues With Tristan If you missed last night’s KUWTK have no fear, the juiciest parts are on YouTube already. People transcribed the entire exchange where Khloe admits that Tristan “demolished” their love affair: “I’m someone where the energy I have towards True, that’s all that matters to me,” she explained. “If that starts to be affected by me wondering, ‘What’s Tristan doing? Where is he?’ — I will be out in two f—ing seconds. Nothing is worth that for me.” “Are you still in love?” Haqq asked. “I am in love,” Kardashian said. “I know I love him. But still, I’m not going to act like nothing’s wrong.” “Don’t you want that change?” said Haqq. “Totally. But I’m not going to force that,” Kardashian said. “He counts — ‘It’s been seven months.’ I’m like, ‘So it’s been seven months.’ I’m allowed to do things when I want to do it. But he also needs to know: ‘Your one stupid weekend or whatever you did, look what it did to three years of a relationship. It just demolished it. So was that worth it for you?’ “ “I appreciate the efforts he has put in and he does self-help and therapy and whatever he does for himself, I really am grateful for that,” she continued. “And he knows I’m still trying. I don’t have to come here. That’s a huge responsibility and a weight on my shoulders to come back and forth. If I didn’t feel anything, I wouldn’t be here. But I still have to get to the next phase and then we’ll get there.’ “ “I’ve always been someone who’s like, ‘Don’t sit in your sorrow,” she added. “It is what it is, so let’s just face the facts and move on.” At the end of the day, the relationship was still “a work in progress.” “We’re working through things,” Kardashian said. “But I’ve also dealt with situations where I’ve ignored it. Like, ‘I forgave, so I’m moving on.’ I acted like nothing happened and that did nothing for my partner.” “You have to face that uncomfortable music and you don’t get to decide when it’s played or not,” Haqq said. “And you know what? You can face certain things and get through certain things that other people couldn’t even fathom.” “I know,” Kardashian said. “Cheers to being strong girls.” STRONG — or dumb? Sorry but we have to ask. Do you think Khloe made a mistake ever trusting Tristan in the first place? Also do you think she was forcing things too much by trying to give Tristan a second chance?

Hayden Panettiere: Violating Court Order By Staying With Abusive Boyfriend?

Hayden Panettiere has been having a rough go of it in recent months. The actress — best known for her work on Heroes and Nashville — has become a tabloid staple thanks to her tumultuous love life and very public struggles with substance abuse. And now, it seems she’s ready to tell the world her story. According to a new report from Radar Online Hayden has become concerned with the manner in which she’s portrayed in the media, and she’s considering writing a memoir in order to set the record straight: “She talked about writing her own story. And she should,” an insider told Radar. “It would be her own journey.” Family and friends are reportedly encouraging the actress to share her story, not so that she can clear the air, but so that other young women might learn from her struggles: “Once Hayden comes to grips with the fact that she has a perfect situation to present to other young women and to say that certain things are not to be tolerated. But it doesn’t sound like she’s in that place yet,” the source continued.  “If she acknowledges his behavior is not acceptable, it’ll do wonders for other women and men.” At the center of Hayden’s recent troubles is her allegedly abusive boyfriend Brian Hickerson . Last week, a judge issued an order of protection requiring Hickerson to remain 100 feet away from Panettiere . Despite that development, Hayden has remained with Brian, and the couple has been spotted strolling hand-in-hand in Los Angeles. “It’s disturbing to family and friends that Hayden and Brian may not be following the court order,” a source tells Us Weekly . “There is not one single person out there who isn’t concerned about Hayden. What Brian did to Hayden is unacceptable behavior, and it’s not to be tolerated.” In addition to the concerns that Hayden is unsafe with Hickerson, the actress’ loved ones are worried that she’s violating the law by spending time in his presence: “Violating the court order puts both of them in jeopardy. They could both get in serious trouble,” the insider says. Panettiere’s loved ones have reportedly encouraged her to part ways with Hickerson, but they fear that if they push too hard, she may cut off contact entirely. “Hayden’s friends and family are giving her space because she is going through a lot,” says the source. “They are being supportive as much as they can and as much as Hayden is willing to take it all in.” Here’s hoping that Hayden is safe and that the situation is being closely monitored by concerned parties. We’ll have further updates on this developing story as more information becomes available. View Slideshow: 21 Celebrities Accused of Domestic Violence
