The comedian/”In Living Color” legend recently chatted with Bossip at Roxbury Park after some Beverly Hills lawn club bowling, dinner and bingo for his new show “The Cool Kids.” David plays a “rusty, dusty” man named Hank who leads a crew of rambunctious retirement community living geezers who can’t help but get into wild adventures. Hank is joined by his buddies Sid, Charlie, and the very sassy Margaret, who bullies herself into the group and shows the boys she’s a boss. According to David, Hank is “very petty, very petty” and super hilarious. Not only that, “The Cool Kids” differs greatly from his previous role on “The Carmichael Show” because of the humor, and because this time around he’s the only black person on the cast. The Carmichaels was so political and so cultural and that was really fun to do. This is not that, I’m the only black cool kid up in there, I’m an island, I’m holding down the whole race!” said Grier.

It feels pretty safe to say that Kim Zolciak cares about her appearance. And that’s fine, if that’s what you’re into. She’s typically in a full face of makeup with her hair done, and we all know she’s very, very serious about her lip injections . She also had a breast reduction recently — but remember, she’s always insisted she’s never gotten any plastic surgery on her face. (Sure, Kim Zolciak of 2018 barely resembles Kim Zolciak of 2008, but that’s her story and she’s sticking to it.) There have even been some more controversial moments that have highlighted the importance she places on appearances — for example, she’s publicly encouraged her oldest daughter, Brielle Biermann, to get lip injections . And a boob job, too, because why not? All of her talk about Brielle’s body has been a little uncomfortable, but honestly, it doesn’t even touch this new thing. Because if you can even believe it, a lot of people think that Kim edited a photo of her four-year-old daughter, Kaia. Here’s the picture of Kaia with her twin, Kane: “Have you ever seen a cuter duo?” Kim asked in her caption. And it’s true, they are pretty cute, but that’s not the only thing people are noticing about the photo. If you look at Kaia specifically here, you may be able to see some telltale signs of poor Photoshopping. Or you could just check out another version of the photo that Brielle shared in her Instagram story: If you look back and forth between the two images, you can see that in Kim’s photo, Kaia’s nose is smaller. But — and this is honestly, truly wild — her butt is bigger. It just is, guys. You can even see the background all altered in Kim’s photo where she enlarged her kid’s backside. And, as you may have guessed, Kim’s Instagram followers were not having this, not one bit. “You’re genuinely sick to edit your daughter’s body,” one person told her. “You obviously have issues with body image, don’t perpetuate them on your baby girl.” Someone else pointed out “You can see the bend in the wall from where you were EDITING a photo of your children who are perfect on their own. Your daughter is going to be so messed up in the head because of you.” So, so many people said that Kim is “disgusting” for this, and many thought the editing was very clear. One of her followers wrote that she has “serious, deep seated issues,” and another advised that she shouldn’t “edit your insecurities onto children.” A particularly disturbed Instagram user told Kim that her daughter “is a beautiful little girl just the way she is,” and that “it’s disturbing to see what you altered in this photo vs. the original.” “What kind of message are you trying to send? It’s very concerning behavior.” And honestly, it really is. Because whatever you want to say about Kim, whether you love her or hate her or are perhaps just indifferent to her, it’s obvious that her photo of her children is edited. Maybe it was some kind of mistake, maybe she was trying to do some different kind of editing and this just happened. But that’s the thing — this happened. Whether it was intentional or not, Kim’s four-year-old daughter’s butt got edited to look bigger in this photo. View Slideshow: 16 Celebrity Photoshop Fails: The Worst of the Worst!

Bill Cosby is a convicted rapist and a ward of Pennsylvania. The disgraced comedian was found guilty in April 2018 of drugging and assaulting a woman named Andrea Constand and then sentenced to three to 10 years behind bars in September of 2018. “Nobody is above the law because of where they live, who they are, wealth, fame, celebrity or even philanthropy,” said the judge said during Cosby's hearing while delivering Cosby's sentence. “Any lesser sentence would take away from the seriousness of the crime,” he added. Overall, Cosby has been accused of rape by over 60 women. He deserves to be behind bars — and we have a look below for you at exactly what life is like for him there. Will the former sitcom star ever live freely again? 1. Good Riddance, Bill Bill Cosby is officially an inmate. The convicted rapist poses here for his final mug/booking shot prior to entering prison. 2. His Other Booking Photo This snapshot was taken very shortly after Cosby learned of his sentencing and was escorted out of the courtroom in handcuffs. 3. A History of Predatory Behavior “Your time has come,” said Judge Steven T. O’Neill in court after labeling him a “violent sexual predator” and requiring Cosby’s name to be on a permanent sex-offender registry, which is sent to neighbors and schools. 4. Take Him Away! Cosby is in handcuffs in this photo. He’s being hauled off to Pennsylvania’s State Correctional Institute at Phoenix, which is located about 30 miles northwest of Philadelphia. 5. What Kind of Institution is This? It is a maximum security state prison. Cosby is officially inmate NN7687 and has been sentenced to “total confinement.” He will need to take a sex offenders program inside the facility. 6. About the Facility… The prison was put into operation just this July and it houses 3,830 beds as well as classrooms, a barber shop and gym. The jail offers various vocational classes and rehabilitation programs. It includes inmates who have been sentenced to death. View Slideshow
Nicki Minaj Coupled Up With Lewis Hamilton Nicki Minaj and Lewis Hamilton are fanning the flames on the rumor that they’re a new couple out here in these streets. The rapper and the Formula 1 racer have already been spotted getting extra friendly during New York Fashion Week, and Nicki wasn’t too shy about showing off her coziness with her possible boo while Versace’d down in Dubai. Now, Lewis is returning Chun-Li’s enthusiasm about their budding…friendship by showcasing her on his own social media page. Lewis posted a photo of him and Ms. Minaj perched up on a four-wheeler on a sand dune at sunset in Dubai. This one has to be a throwback photo, as Nicki just touched down in Brazil within the last few days. Hmm…is it just us or does that make it look like he’s missing spending that one-on-one time with his new lady? Either way it goes, it seems that this potential couple doesn’t care too much about the public speculation since they each tossed up middle fingers in the photo. Looks like we may be seeing more of these two together in the near future! It is cuffin’ season after all… PMPhoto/PapCulture / SplashNews.com

He goes by the handle @ColdGameKelv, but his mama calls him Kelvin Peña. She probably doesn’t say his last name when she calls him, but that’s besides the point. Kelvin has a special kind of love for wildlife and he interacts with animals in a way that we’ve never seen represented before. Take, for example, his latest Instagram post. Yesterday, Kelvin held a sloth for the very first time and far as we can tell, it was love at first sight. If you think this is good, you don’t know the half.

Source: MARK MAKELA / Getty T ake a minute to absorb that truth for a minute: Bill Cosby doesn’t deserve your sadness. It’s a bit jarring, admittedly, to see that Bill Cosby is actually going to spend time behind bars. There are a few reasons for the surrealism of it all. First, the obvious: Bill Cosby was one of America’s most beloved figures for decades. We grew up with him and seeing him go to jail is something we never thought we’d see when we were kids. Second, there’s the fact that these allegations of sexual assault have followed Cosby for so long that it seemed like he’d never actually go to jail. It’s that second point that you need to remember. Because no matter your affinity for Cosby and his cultural contributions over the decades, he is still a man who has been accused of dozens of instances of sexual assault and, as of today, is a convicted sex offender headed to prison. So, as disorienting as it is to see Cosby in handcuffs, just remember that his confirmed and alleged victims say they have experienced worse. Save your compassion for those women. From Bill Cosby to Harvey Weinstein. https://t.co/KIfMdREA8V — NewsOne (@newsone) September 24, 2018 Don’t get me wrong: this whole situation is a tragedy. It’s a tragedy for sexual assault survivors who had to wear their pain in secret, sure that no matter what they said, the man who assaulted them would never face any punishment. It’s a tragedy for the women whose lives and careers were ruined because of the damage — physical, emotional, professional and otherwise — Cosby caused them. It’s a tragedy for a society that allows a culture in which someone like Cosby is able to thrive while having committed the crimes he’s been convicted of today. Yes, this is a tragedy. But not for Cosby. There’s another reason not to feel any sadness for Cosby: He wouldn’t feel any for you if you were on the wrong end of handcuffs like he was today, no matter the reason you were in cuffs in the first place. Bill Cosby has spent most of the 21st century chastising the most vulnerable Black Americans among us. His infamous 2004 “ Pound Cake speech ” for the NAACP — full of false information and fake news about things like unemployment, dropout rates, incarceration rates and single parenthood — was the rallying cry for respectability politics. Cosby loved picking on poor Black people for the way they made him look in front of white people. His chiding of Black Americans, demanding that they pull their pants up, became inextricably linked to his legacy. And now, the same man who wagged his finger at incarcerated people will now spend his next few years surrounded by them. Meet the Black prosecutor who made sure time was up on #BillCosby : https://t.co/pgaIHd4ES7 pic.twitter.com/GifaPWOR9k — NewsOne (@newsone) April 30, 2018 It’s important to remember that Cosby never sagged his pants. He never said the “N” word. He came from a two-parent household. He’s well-educated. And he’s a jailed sexual assaulter. I’d like to think that we can learn lessons from all of this. That this is the final nail in the coffin for respectability politics. That those cell doors closing in front of Cosby also signal the closure of ideas that involve Black people needing to dress a certain way to avoid jail or that “Black on Black” crime is a reflection of anything more than proximity. That the era of “pull your pants up” pseudo-activism is replaced by a culture of compassion where we try to empathize for those in jail or unfortunate life situations because we understand the larger factors that put those people in those positions. The ideas that Cosby have championed should go away with him. I also hope that we learn that this wasn’t a victory for victims of sexual assault; that needing dozens of accusations of sexual assault and two trials before sending a man in his 80s to jail decades after he’s allegedly committed the acts isn’t a blueprint for true justice. Victory isn’t eventual jail for sexual assault. Victory is a society that doesn’t allow people to feel like they can commit acts of sexual violence without recourse in the first place. Victory isn’t jail. Victory is sexual assault not happening in the first place. So pardon me if I don’t feel any sadness for Bill Cosby. Excuse me if I don’t have any remorse for the perpetrator of heinous crimes. Bill Cosby doesn’t deserve your tears. He never will.

Source: pixelfit / Getty Don’t ever try to steal from a Black woman! This is a lesson that a white AT&T worker had to learn the hard way when a customer accused him of using her phone and stealing $50 bucks from her via a cash app. According to the Shaderoom , the woman was having internet installed in her home when the AT&T worker asked could he use her phone to test to see if the WIFI was working. Well, let the woman tell it, he did more than just that: She claims he stole her coins! When she realized that her money was missing, she confronted the worker, recorded the confrontation and posted it online for the world to see. Looking at the video, the unnamed cable and phone worker initially denied stealing from her and said that the transfer may have happened by mistake. But soon after he changed his tune, asking multiple times, “How can we make this right.” The woman’s response: You better make it right since that money was her fiancé’s and not hers. Welp! The Shaderoom wrote that they later spoke to the woman who claimed that she complained to his supervisors and for the man fired. If this story is true, what a damn idiot. Fifty-dollars is not worth losing your job over.

Source: John Shearer / Getty Today is rapper, actor and IG extraordinaire Will Smith ‘s birthday. Initially, the day was all about him as fans and friends alike wished him a happy birthday on social media. Some people got nostalgic… It doesn’t matter where you’re going, no car ride is complete without at least one Will Smith song — Zach Robbins (@zrobbins4444) September 25, 2018 While others listed their favorite movies by the talented actor… My Top 5 Will Smith movies 1. Indepence Day 2. Men In Black 3. Hancock 4. I Am Legend 5. I, Robot Also, I know it's kind of indefensible but I ride for THE LEGEND OF BAGGER VANCE… DON'T @ ME — Matt Brickman (@Matt_Brickman) September 25, 2018 Even Will himself was hype for his birthday. On Instagram he pledged that he would bungee jump out of a helicopter on his birthday. The filmed stunt will be hosted by his Fresh Prince of Bel-Air co-star Alfonso Ribeiro , and the whole event will be streamed at 3 p.m. PST/ 6 p.m. EST on YouTube. Possibly one of the most special moments on Will’s birthday came when his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith , sent him love and support for his upcoming stunt on Instagram. “Here is what I love most about you turning 50 @willsmith, ” she wrote. “You are soaring high in your freedom and have more authentic happiness then I’ve ever seen you have before. You deserve every bit of it! Keep flying and keep doing you! Happy Birthday Willard!!! You make 50 look good!!!” Now you’d think that would be the only lady showing such public affection to Big Willie. But it seems another woman of the 90s had other plans. The Jamie Foxx Show star Garcelle Beauvais posted a tweet wishing Will a happy birthday, but instead of leaving it at that, she added a picture from the 1999 movie Wild Wild West where she’s kissing Will smack dab on the lips. She captioned the pic, “A birthday kiss for the birthday boy.” The post has since been deleted, but you can check it out here . Despite Garcelle’s intentions, her post immediately went viral on Twitter. Some folks were scared for Garcelle’s life, considering Jada and her family of women basically look like action stars. Is this Garcelle woman on CRACK?!?? Sis, Jada does not play… — Qai Qai (@herroyalcourtt) September 25, 2018 Whew, chile. You do know Jada can bench press you, right? https://t.co/dqsTsm9KcO — G O L D I E. (@goldietaylor) September 25, 2018 Then, there were some that thought Garcelle’s post wasn’t a big deal. Why do people think that Jada is about to trip over a still shot of Will and Garcelle kissing from 'Wild Wild West'? She's known Will over 25 years and Jada has seen that movie. Also, I'm sure she knows both of their senses of humor. — Project Pat-agonia (@TheCourtJASter) September 25, 2018 Jada Pickett Smith seems like she has no desire to be controlling or even a bit of territorial folks have a different kind of understanding and connection in that marriage — yungsquat (@Nissafitt) September 25, 2018 Finally, there were those who brought up Will and Jada’s “unconventional” marriage and they took their minds to the steamiest places. Will and Jada have an unconventional (read: open) marriage. I know they y’all goals but pls relax. I doubt Jada was losing sleep over that. — Lil Conch Snack (@abbracadabra_) September 25, 2018 Jada prolly fucked Garcelle with William. it’s no beef I’m sure. — DJ Vote Democrat in Houston ‘18 (@DJAudiTory) September 25, 2018 Eventually, Garcelle took her original post down and tweeted a response to all the hoopla…. Ok guys it was supposed to be a funny post My bad if I offended anyone ! If you are my followers you know I’m all about lifting up people and being positive being human I made a mistake … Have beautiful blessed day — Garcelle Beauvais (@GarcelleB) September 25, 2018 But of course, this still didn’t stop the commentary. Hit the next pages to peep the most hilarious reactions to Garcelle’s “mistake.”
