Fredo Santana, a popular rapper who originally made a name for himself as part of the Chicago music scene, was found dead on Friday night. He was 27 years old. According to TMZ, per close family members of the late musician, Santana was discovered by his girlfriend around 11:30 p.m. in Los Angeles. He has recently been hospitalized for kidney and liver problems, allegedly due to an addiction to the substance known as “lean.” (Lean is a mixture of prescription-strength cough syrup and codeine. It is typically mixed with other ingredients, such as lemon-lime soda and/or pieces of hard candy, like Jolly Ranchers.) Santana had talked openly about this addiction. Lean is also believed to cause seizures, which is likely what led to the rapper’s death. In response to this sad piece of news, a number of artists have taken to social media in tribute of Fredo Santana. “Rest In Peace Santana,” wrote Drake as a caption to the following image, for example. “RIP Fredo Santana f–kkkk man, @ChiefKeef is going to need a lot of love and support, Fredo was his number 1,” Milonakis added. After going to the hospital in October for his lean problem, Santana posted the following message on Instagram: “Been in here since Friday doctor say a nigga had kidney failure an liver failure. Thanks for everyone who prayed for a nigga I wouldn’t wish this on my worse enemy.” He later admitted that he was thinking of checking into rehab. “Hopefully I can be the face to sho niggas to slow down an we got our whole life ahead of us fuck being rock stars gettin high I got ptsd,” he Tweeted, adding: “I was running from my old life tryna get high didn’t want to face them demons…I’m getting help I might just go to rehab.” Alas, Santana never followed through on this consideration. Fredo Santana announced the birth of his son via this cute Instagram photo in 2017. Fredo Santana was the cousin of Chief Keef. He burst on to the scene via collaborations with his famous relative, but eventually carved his own niche via such mixtapes as “Fredo Kruger,” “It’s a Scary Site and his “Trappin Ain’t Dead” album. Santana was working on the second installment in his Walking Legend mixtape series before he passed. The rapper also became a father for the first time eight months ago. He is survived by his young son, Legend. Strangely enough, Santana is the latest big name to pass away at the age of 27, as noted below: View Slideshow: 14 Celebrities Who Died at Age 27 May Fredo Santana rest in peace.

The ladies were still not amused with the way Kenya Moore kept the details of her wedding a secret on The Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 10 Episode 7 . More importantly, Sheree and Porsha found it odd that Cynthia was also left in the dark and only found out about the marriage after reading about it online. Watch The Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 10 Episode 7 Online Could you imagine your best friend getting married behind your back? That’s precisely what Kenya did, and it’s clear it’s going to continue to cause drama for the ladies. Sheree and Porsha may have been shopping for some fancy doors, but they were dragging Kenya as much as they possibly could. Then there was poor Cynthia who felt deflated by the fact she had yet to meet Marc, but Kenya was all about keeping the peace, saying that she hadn’t met him because he was rarely in Atlanta. There have been conflicting reports that Kenya’s man is not amused by the way the show represents males, and that could be why he’s keeping well away from the Bravo cameras. Cynthia seemed done questioning Kenya’s motives and decided to chat about Sheree instead. Yes, Sheree was getting up close and personal with Tyrone Gilliams, and the dude is incarcerated. All the talk about love got Porsha interested in finding a man for herself, so she joined a matchmaking service. “I want to focus on someone who is supportive, confident and successful,” she said before saying that she wanted to have kids. She proceeded to show off two kid’s rooms in her house. The matchmaking service seemed confused because Porsha does not yet have children, so it was clear she was getting a bit ahead of herself. Meanwhile, Sheree decided it was the right time to open up to her kids about the domestic violence. “You need to know that nobody deserves to be mistreated,” she said with a tear in her eye. Her kids were shocked by all of, but they closed out the scene with a hug which confirmed Sheree was in a happy place because the past was eating away at her. Elsewhere, Cynthia geared up for another date with Will Jones, and Kandi and Todd seemed scared that something was going to go horribly. Kandi felt like he was using it as another platform to show to gain recognition and did not want her pal to be subjected to that. “If he stands the test of time, we will know that he’s the real deal,” Kandi said to the camera with a smile. Porsha’s first blind date was with some guy named Patrick. She was not impressed and seemed to be looking for an opportunity to make a swift getaway. She stayed for a little while, and the tension could be cut with a knife, so she made her getaway and used her mother staying as an excuse. The big closing segment focused on Sheree getting a phone call from her boyfriend from prison. Her life coach was floored by revelation that she was with an incarcerated man, “Tyrone fulfils me more than any man has,” Sheree said to the camera. “I know what we share,” she said the life coach. “He is my soul mate.” Okay then, Sheree! What do you think of all the crazy developments? Sound off below. View Slideshow: 14 Shadiest Real Housewives Hook-Ups of All-Time

Just because you are rich and famous, this does not mean you do not suffer. Tragically, the following stars all proved this point to be accurate when they took their own lives. We mourn their passing and we hope they have found the peace in death that they could not find in life… 1. Robin Williams Suffering from depression, Robin Williams hanged himself at the age of 63. 2. Mindy McCready The country artist killed herself with a self-inflicted gunshot wound in 2013, having twice attempted suicide in the past. Her children were already in foster care at the time of her death. 3. Kurt Cobain Kurt Cobain stunned the music world when the Nirvana lead singer killed himself via gunshot at the age of 27. 4. Tony Scott The director of Top Gun and True Romance, among other hits, died from multiple blunt force injuries after leaping off a bridge into the Los Angeles Harbor. He left notes for his friends and family. 5. Jovan Belcher Jovan Belcher, a linebacker on the Kansas City Chiefs at the time, shot his girlfriend dead and then drove to team headquarters where he shot and killed himself in front of his coach and general manager. Horrible stuff. 6. Lucy Gordon The British actress appeared in Spiderman 3 and Serendipity and was sadly found dead in her Paris apartment. She hanged herself. View Slideshow
Float Like A Butterfly, Sting Like A Bee Born Cassius Clay, Muhammed Ali, is said to be the most written about public figure in his lifetime. As the only Heavyweight champion to be crowned three times, Ali made a name for himself in and outside of the boxing ring. He was known for talking smack about his opponents and his strong opposition for the Vietnam War. He died a year ago today, after battling Parkinson’s Disease for over thirty years. “I think maybe Parkinson’s is God’s way of reminding me what is important. It slowed me down and caused me to listen rather than talk,” Ali explained. Gone, but certainly never forgotten, here are a couple of other famed quotes from The Greatest himself: “It isn’t the mountains ahead to climb that wear you out; it’s the pebble in your shoe.” “Don’t count the days, make the days count.” “I am the greatest, I said that even before I knew I was.” Rest In Peace Oh Great One!
Just a few weeks ago, Kim Zolciak suffered a horrible family tragedy. Her four-year old son was bitten by a dog and forced to undergo emergency surgery. Thankfully, little Kash is okay. And now his parents have given him and his siblings something to celebrate for a much-needed change: the renewal of their vows! Over the weekend, Kim Zolciak and Kroy Biermann grabbed their kids and headed to the beach in order to once again tell the world how much they love each other. And how they’ll keep loving each other for all of eternity. In a series of Instagram photos (above and below), we see that the entire Biermann clan was all attendance for this special occasion: Daughters Brielle, Ariana and Kaia all rocked gorgeous white gowns, while sons Kroy Jr., Kash and Kane — looked went with matching suspenders and bow ties. How adorable, right?!? “I am the LUCKIEST wife/mother on this planet! I never will ever take my family for granted! God is so good,” wrote Zolciak as a caption to the very first image shared above. Earlier in the day, the reality star posted a picture of herself riding a horse in the ocean, wearing another white wedding dress by designer Leanne Marshall. For what reason? We’re not sure. But, hey, there’s a “first for everything,” Kim penned as a caption to this unique snapshot: Zolciak, of course, is known for posing numerous photos every week to her social media page. Most of them, however, feature the Real Housewives of Atlanta cast member in various states of undress. Really, there’s never been a cleavage-centric selfie that Kim Zolciak failed to take. But this set really did focus entirely on her husband, her kids and the fantasy that she considers to be her daily existence. “Life is but a dream,” she wrote along with the following picture. “Love, Happiness, Peace, And Joy,” Zolciak also captioned another shot of her in the dress with a shirtless Biermann. Back in March, the couple (who has been married since November 2011) revealed how they were planning to renew their vows in a video for The Daily Dish. The stars joked at the time about how Zolciak basically just told Biermann this was happening and that she had made all the arrangements. Sounds about right to those who have followed Zolciak’s career, doesn’t it? But whatever. Say what you will about this occasionally-scandalous reality star. At the end of the day, she and Kroy really do seem to be in love. And their children really do seem to be happy. What more can you ask for? Photos of Zolciak in a bikini and Biermann without a shirt on? Good point. You can definitely ask for those, too. And here they are! Enjoy!

Erin Moran, the actress best known for having portrayed Joanie Cunningham on Happy Days, was found dead on Saturday from causes unknown. She was 56 years old. According to TMZ sources, authorities in Indiana received a call just after 4 p.m. this afternoon from someone reporting he or she had come across an “unresponsive female.” When emergency medical technicians arrived on the scene, they found Moran ‘s corpse. Moran sky-rocketed to fame in the early 1970s when she was cast as the younger sister of Ron Howard’s beloved character on Happy Days. In 1982, she went on to star opposite Scott Baio on the short-lived spinoff Joanie Loves Chachi. It was canceled after just one season. Following her quick rise to fame, however, Moran struggled in life. She appeared to have a drinking problem and, after a series of bizarre incidents, eventually landed her in a trailer park in Indiana. She had reportedly gone broke and was kicked out of the mobile home she shared with husband, Steve Fleischmann. Along with her aforementioned legendary role, Moran appeared on episodes of Murder, She Wrote, Desperation Boulevard and VH1’s Celebrity Fit Club. An autopsy has been scheduled to determined cause of death. In 2011, Moran and three of her Happy Days costars (Don Most, Anson Williams and Marion Ross), along with the estate of Tom Bosley, who died in 2010, sued CBS for breach of contract. Alleging that they had not been paid for merchandising relating to the series, they sought millions in damages. In 2012, CBS and the actors settled their lawsuit, with the group receiving and undisclosed amount of money. A Burbank, California native, Moran started acting in television shows and movies before she was 10 years old. She was just 14 when she caught her major break on Happy Days. In response to this sad news, former co-stars of Moran’s took to social media and expressed their sadness. To wit: Ron Howard : Such sad sad news. RIP Erin. I’ll always choose to remember you on our show making scenes better, getting laughs and lighting up tv screens. Henry Winkler : OH Erin… now you will finally have the peace you wanted so badly here on earth …Rest In It serenely now.. too soon. Added Moran’s good friend, Erin Murphy, who played Tabitha on Bewitched: “So sad to share that my friend Erin Moran has passed away. Rest In Peace, sweet girl. Other stars also chimed in on Moran’s passing, such as Yvette Nicole Brown, who Tweeted: “Such sad news. #RIP #ErinMoran #HappyDays Star Dead At 56. We all loved #JoanieCunningham.” And Troy Hughes: “THIS JUST IN … Erin Moran who starred in “Happy Days” and “Joanie Loves Chachi” has died according to @TMZ … She was 56.” We send along our condolences to the family, friends and loved ones of Erin Moran.
