NeNe Leakes Locks Horns With Kenya Moore and Porsha Williams

The Real Housewive of Atlanta fans will recall that season 11 did not exactly end peacefully . There’s been a schism between the girls ever since the Bye Wig party erupted into a huge fight. And after a tense reunion on Wednesday, drama addicts can rejoice in the knowledge that the bad blood will carry over to season 12 as well. The occasion was housewife Marlo Hampton’s “I am Her” hair event.  As is often the case on the  Housewives shows, one of the girls holds a promotional event of some kind, and the other cast members show up to give their support. Or at least that’s how it looks on paper. Usually, the event only exists in service of the drama — an upscale backdrop for the girls to trash talk each other while wearing cocktail dresses. That certainly seems to be the case here, as star NeNe Leakes finally reunited with on-screen nemeses Kenya Moore and Porsha Williams. NeNe has been avoiding some of her castmates ever since her epic freakout at the Bye Wig party. As fans will remember, that altercation became fightentingly heated and culminated with NeNe attacking a camera man, who lost part of a tooth. NeNe still has a grudge against Porsha, who instigated that whole fracas by trying to sneak into NeNe’s very off-limits walk-in closet with Kandi Burruss. Nene was also reportedly enraged to learn that Kenya was brought back for another season, after producers fired her for keeping her marriage a secret. Ironically, Kenya might have been kept off the show if NeNe didn’t hate her so much.  Apparently, the beef the two women was too much for Bravo to pass up. Since rejoining the group, Kenya has been going out of her way to find a story line for herself. To that end, she made sure to stir up some trouble at the “I am Her” event on Wednesday too. An inside source tells  RadarOnline that Kenya attempted to crash the party, bringing her own rival line of hair care products. “Kenya was trying to wage a war with Marlo to cause drama,” the source claims. A tacky move to be sure, but it’s sure to make great TV if the cameras were rolling for this event, and we expect that they were. But despite this perfect receipe for another NeNe vs everyone blowout, sources say NeNe was on her best behavior. “There were no confrontations,” the source told  Radar.  “And [NeNe] even said hello to Kenya.” That’s some true progress for NeNe, who recently refused to be filmed in any scenes featuring Kenya or Porsha. With that said, it’s best to keep in mind that we all say hello to people we dislike on a regular basis. Sometimes you have to play nice or not play at all. At some point NeNe will have to swallow her pride and interract with her enemies, or she’ll miss out on a ton of screen time. But sources say she’s not quite there yet with Porsha. “Porsha is the only RHOA who said she is not interested in rekindling a friendship with NeNe at all,” the insider claims. This was plainly evident at the “I am Her” event, where NeNe froze Porsha out and the two girls didn’t acknowledge each other at all. So at the end of the night, an olive branch was offered, but plenty of bad blood lives on. We can’t wait to see how it all goes down on the next season of  Real Housewives of Atlanta .

That was until Future took it upon himself to take on the title as Head Coach of the Hot Boys.  Now, judging by by folks on social media, it’s officially a competition to see who will come out on top at the end of the Summer. Sigh Megan Thee Stallion pushed the concept of a Hot Girl/ Hot Boy summer to encourage women and men to live their best lives.

‘Basketball Wives’ Recap: Shaunie Trolls Evelyn By Inviting Jennifer On The Girls Trip

Read the original:

Source: David Livingston / Getty Tonight’s episode of Basketball Wives starts with Tami and her business partner, and shoe designer, Jessica Rich going over prototypes for Tami’s shoe line. And then OG walks in. Tami invited her because she wants to make sure she’s okay after that brunch. That’s the real reason they’re there. Tami said she’s disappointed in how the brunch went. Obviously, OG is happy to have at least one person in her corner. I other news, Jennifer meets up with Kristen to deliver a letter for her to give to Shaunie. We don’t know what’s in the letter, but basically, Jenn says she’s ready to take some accountability for her messed up actions. Now we’re at Byron and CeCe’s engagement party. Everything looks nice. Malaysia and Jackie come through, and CeCe is happy to see them. However, Malaysia is bummed that Kristen and her husband aren’t there because she feels like their feud with CeCe is killing her family. And guess what, OG ends up showing up later. Malaysia decides to take this time, because it’s the most appropriate moment, to confront OG. Basically, Malaysia tells her that Byron said he never told her to tell that secret. In Malaysia’s mind, OG said that Byron told her to tell everyone. In reality, Byron told OG that it’s okay to talk about it because people already know. There is a difference. Malaysia says it’s the same thing. OG says it’s not. They go in circles for a second, but Malaysia surprisingly decides to shut this conversation down so they can talk another time. Now we’re at Shaunie’s house for her son’s 16th birthday party. The house looks kind of like the house from The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air , so that’s the party theme. But the meat of this moment is that Kristen pulls Shaunie aside to give her Jenn’s letter. Shaunie decides to read it in front of Evelyn and Jackie. Basically, Jenn wrote some fluff about how it was nice to see her at her other son’s party, but it’s still a non-apology. Despite that, it’s enough for Shaunie to consider inviting Jenn on their upcoming girls trip to San Diego. Evelyn is definitely not feeling that, but we all know Shaunie is going to invite Jenn. Tami finally reveals that she and Reggie are married. She had a cute little party at her house to make the announcement. Everyone seemed happy for her, even Jackie, who was mad at her but also happy at the same time. You know how Jackie does. Let’s fast forward to San Diego. We find the group headed there in two separate cars. Jenn is present with her friend, Dominique, because she needs at least one person on her side. Feby, Shaunie, and Evelyn ride in one car and the rest, minus Tami, are in the other car. When it comes up that Jenn brought Dominique, it turns out that Evelyn and Dominique don’t like each other either (so, Jenn knew what she was doing). Ev’s group arrives first. The second group of women arrives shortly after and Evelyn gets annoyed at the sight of Jenn from jump. They manage to pick rooms without a hitch and tonight’s episode ends on a low-key note, but next week, the turnup cometh. Evelyn and Jenn are going to get into it for the 1,422,343,415,251 time.

Colombian Dude Hides $34,000 Worth of Coke Under His Wig, Immediately Gets Busted

Move over, Scarface. Step aside, Escobar. There’s a new kingpin in town, and he’s … well, actually, he’s pretty terrible at his job, so you guys can probably just stay put. According to The New York Post , the man in the mugshots above was arrested at Barcelona’s international airport after police discovered half-kilo (1.1 pounds) under his wig. The Post article opens with “He had hell toupee,” and yes, we’re very angry they beat us to that joke. Police say it was easy to spot the “considerably nervous” man — who arrived on a flight from Bogotá at the end of June — due to the“disproportionate size” of his hairpiece. As part of “Operation Toupee,” the officers found a “perfectly sealed package taped to his head.” We’re not sure you need to give your operation a name when it basically consisted of spotting a guy with a bag-of-cocaine-shaped lump on his head and lifting up his wig to find — drumroll — a bag of cocaine. Although for all we know, this whole thing might have been a long time in the making. Some ambitious customs agent with a hunch might have been poking at people’s hairlines for months, just waiting for his theory to pan out. Spain is apparently one of the top spots for smuggling drugs into Europe, which may or may not have something to do with the fact that Ibiza is basically the party capital of the universe, and their cars run on pure MDMA there. “There is no limit to the inventiveness of drug traffickers trying to mock controls,” said a police spokesperson. Apparently, international police forces have gotten better at coordinating their efforts to put an end to transcontinental drug muling. Which may help explain why Lindsay Lohan’s Beach House  closed down. Just kidding, LiLo! Anyway, the 65-year-old (!!!) smuggler has not yet been identified and there’s no word yet on what sort of  Frankly, we’re hoping he gets off just so we can invite him to a party. He’s got a hell of an interesting story to tell, and there’s a chance he’ll show up with a pound of booger sugar for a hat.

Taylor Swift Explains Katy Perry Feud: It Was All the Media’s Fault!

Last week, Taylor Swift and Katy Perry ended their feud , officially bringing an end to one of the lengthiest and most entertaining popstar beefs of all time. The truce was announced by Katy’s cameo in the video for Taylor’s new single “You Need to Calm Down.” In case Katy’s presence in the clip didn’t send the message clearly enough, Perry literally dressed as the hamburger to Katy’s french fries, and the two of them hugged it out on camera. Katy tweeted a pic of the historic cease-fire along with a caption reading, “This meal is BEEF-free.” In other words, the singers are bludgeoning fans with their friendship the same way they used to beat us over the head with their feud. But even though Taylor, in particular, seemed to glory in the gossip repeatedly throwing shade at her rival and even went so far as to write a song about Katy , she now says the media is to blame for the whole mess. Addressing the rekindled friendship in a new interview with Buzzfeed , Taylor recalls the exact moment at which she and Katy buried the hatchet: “We have been on really good terms for a while. But the first time we saw each other was at this party, and it was just very clear to both of us that everything was different. That we had grown up,” Swift says. “That we had grown past allowing ourselves to be pitted against each other,” Taylor continues. “It just was really, really clear that we remembered how much we had in common. “Both of us have been in a really good place for a while, but I don’t know if either of us knew if we were gonna talk about it publicly.” Okay, obviously we’re a bit biased on this one, but Taylor pretending like her beef with Katy is an invention of the media and that the two of them were “pitted against each other” is some straight-up horse pucky, even by the standards of the post-truth #FakeNews era. For yeeeears, Taylor took shots at Katy every chance she got as an audience numbering in the tens of millions hung on every word. Katy was no shrinking violet throughout the whole thing, but she never teed off quite like Taylor did. The lyrics to “Bad Blood” stop just short of Tupac-Biggie diss track territory, and Tay basically spent all of 2015 rolling with a massive posse of lanky friends in case sh-t got real at a red carpet event. This was not a case of the media deciding it would be cool if two pop stars didn’t get along. No, this was a case of two pop stars (but Taylor in particular) taking every opportunity to remind the public that they don’t get along. It’s great that these two have decided to let bygones be bygones — but attempting to rewrite the past is a surefire way to wind up repeating your previous mistakes.
