Reaching For The Stars: See The Video That Got Morgan Freeman Caught Up In Assault Allegations

Source: Getty Images / Morgan Freeman Just when you thought you had to cancel Morgan Freeman along with the rest of the creeps in Hollywood, video footage surfaced that’ll have you thinking twice about throwing away Mr. Clark.   Along with the eight women accusing the Academy Award winning actor, entertainment reporters have also come out saying they’ve felt Freeman was inappropriate with them. One being 31-year old Chloe Melas , who was “shocked” at Morgan for making a comment about her pregnancy.   Is she reaching to the moon and back? Or Nah? I just can’t believe that not a single person at @CNN or @NewDay watched that @Chloe_Melas video and didn’t think to tell her that Morgan Freeman was talking about Michael Caine and not her. Way to play the victim, @Chloe_Melas — kD (@korenthians) May 25, 2018 Melas even tried to pull WGN-TV reporter Tyra Martin into the mix by showing footage of the time Freeman told her, “I get to look at you and drool” and reminded her that he’s single. But despite Chloe’s super reach, Martin insisted she was always “in on the joke” and never felt uncomfortable except for once.   Now, we’re not saying that Morgan Freeman is innocent by any means. But Chloe Mela’s statement doesn’t seem to equate to the pain, ridicule and embarrassment that other women who’ve been assaulted had suffered. For those saying what does any lady gain from tarnishing a man's image, well Chloe Melas who is spear-heading the sexual accusations against Morgan Freeman has serious ulterior motive for slandering Morgan Freeman name. pic.twitter.com/naXzrkm5PQ — Eph_em (@pharmow) May 25, 2018 But what do we know?   Catch Morgan Freeman’s full apology here .   CNN,  via GIPHY

Source: Christopher Polk / Getty Via | HotNewHipHop Khaled and J-Lo set it off with “Dinero.” As some of the industry’s top acts took to the stage to deliver on performances at this year’s 2018 Billboard Music Awards, the ceremony presented plenty of opportunities for fans to hear new favorites in a live setting for the first time.

Khloe Kardashian: DITCHED By Tristan Thompson on Mother’s Day?!

Khloe Kardashian celebrated her first Mother’s Day as a mom over the weekend, but the occasion was less joyous than she might have anticipated. For starters, of course, Khloe learned in the final days of her pregnancy that Tristan Thompson had cheated on her with various women while she was carrying his child. On top of that, Khloe was forced to spend the holiday in Cleveland. Now, hold on there, angry C-town residents who are already cracking your knuckles in anticipation of flaming us into oblivion in the comments. Cleveland is a fine city with a basketball team that continues to defy expectations, and as believers in a just and benevolent universe, we have no doubt that you’ll emerge victorious in your current series and prove once again that God hates Boston. But Khloe probably didn’t imagine herself spending her first significant Mother’s Day in Cleveland without even her baby’s father to keep her company. Yes, despite reports that Khloe would return to Los Angeles for the holiday, she stayed put in Tristan’s mansion. Thompson has reportedly taken up residence in a nearby hotel, but he wasn’t in Cleveland at all for Mother’s Day. Instead, he was spotted out in and about in Boston in the presence of teammate Jordan Clarkson. Now, in the Khloe-centric corners of social media, you’re liable to hear talk about how Tristan ditched Khloe on what should have been the most memorable days of her life. But he’s in Boston to do the thing that he does for money, and surely even the Kardashians understand such plebeian concepts as “jobs” and “obligations.” So no, Tristan is not to be blamed for leaving Khloe alone on Mother’s Day. But that doesn’t change the fact that her situation is sort of a bummer. By all accounts, Khloe still sees a future with her baby daddy, and she’s still talking about her desire to marry Tristan some day. So just two months ago, if you’d told her she would be stranded in Cleveland wondering if her man will be able to keep it in his pants for the few days he’ll be out of town, she probably wouldn’t have believed you.  Those closest to Khloe are said to be hoping that she’ll come to her senses and kicks Tristan to the curb. But no one knows a relationship like the people who are in it, and we’re sure she’s savvy enough to know what’s best for her and her daughter. Of course, if Khloe does decide to stay with Tristan, she might want to invest in a good private investigator in time for the start of next year’s NBA season.

New Levels: This Family Portrait Raised The ‘Black Excellence’ Bar To An All Time High

Continued here:

While scrolling through my IG feed on Monday evening, I came across a beautiful Black family with photos so pristine I initially thought they had to be actors or models working on a project of some sort. It turns out Writer and Speaker of Words   Ezekiel Azonwu took professional photos with his real life wife  Kiyanna Azonwu —and those are their real life kids posing and serving with all that poise. If I had to guess, I’d say the theme was Black excellence, Black opulence, Black decadence…because damn it, they shut it TF down. Meanwhile, your bebe kids crying at the mere mention of “say cheese”…lmao, I digress. Introducing their fifth child through these beautiful photos (swipe left), Mr. Azonwu also took the opportunity to share a message with his followers and it’s a word many of us could stand to apply to various areas of our lives. He wrote, “Yes it’s true! We are welcoming another child into this world soon! . To be honest, when my wife and I first discovered the news, we both fell into a depression like slump. WE WERE DONE! Four children was more than enough for us. Due to schedule one of us weren’t able to “seal the deal” on time, and weeks before the potential appointment, BOOM! I had to come to my senses after about a week. I reminded my wife there are things to mourn over, but a life is not one of them, so we ceased all negative talk surrounding this pregnancy and began to see how God had his hand on it all. We planned to keep it a secret until about 5 months, then it really just started feeling great to be able to limit when and what we allow the public to consume about us. So she’s due in a month! Granted this won’t be easy, but God will make it possible! ALL of our children are a blessing from God, and this final one will be no different! @thisisglory I love you, you’re a superhero. P.S. it’s a boy. And yes this is it we’ve ‘sealed the deal.’” What a beautiful family. More photos below. [ione_media_gallery src=”https://globalgrind.cassiuslife.com” id=”4252864″ overlay=”true”]

Cardi B Stuns With Makeup-Free Selfie and Natural Hair

Cardi B is talented and beautiful. So beautiful, in fact, that fans don’t mind learning the position in which she got knocked up . But though she’s known for her carefully manicured looks, she’s showing fans another side of her that few have seen. Take at look below at her make-up free, natural haired selfie. She’s gorgeous. Though she had appeared in the past on Love & Hip-Hop: New York , Cardi B was catapulted to becoming a household name with her hit single, “Bodak Yellow.” After being entranced by her music — the lyrics, the hook, everything — a lot of people were drawn in by her looks. Cardi B is hot. She just is. You can tell from the photos. When someone’s looks are tied to their brand, as is so often the case, they seldom let people see them with their guard down. Like a growing number of celebrities, Cardi B plays by a different set of rules. Take a look at her makeup-free look and her big, natural hair. She looks great! She looks different, but certainly not unrecognizable, which means that she’s doing right by herself when she does her makeup. Cardi B captioned this photo: “Knock me down 9 times but i get up 10 bitch!” From the flow, that actually sounds like it would be a perfect lyric for “Bodak Yellow.” But the line is actually from another song of hers, “Get Up 10.” (Logistically, one assumes that Cardi B got up once before any of the nine knockdowns occurred, which would explain in the discrepency between how many times she is knocked down and how many times she arises) Showing herself with her natural hair — well, straightened to some degree, but mostly natural — is actually a big deal, in a way that sharing a makeup-free snap is not. Because women of color living in the Western world have had their appearances critiqued and controlled for centuries, forced by white supremacy to conform to European beauty standards. Cardi B may play that game with her public appearance, but this photo is a powerful and important reminder that she has a lot of hair, and that she has to put in a great deal of work to make it appear as it does in public. (When she isn’t wearing a wig, that is) Recently, Cardi B announced her pregnancy . She is pregnant by her fiance, Offset. Initially, many of her fans grew concerned when she became engaged so quickly after skyrocketing to fame. They wondered if Offset was hitching himself to her before it really hit home for her what an incredible future her career has in store. (Doubts were magnified when a woman came forward claiming to be Offset’s baby mama … and Offset’s refusal to take a paternity test ) Many of those concerns have vanished as fans are enthusiastic for Cardi B to become a mom. Cardi B’s selfie is inspirational and we’re so glad that she elected to share it. That does not mean that we don’t like any of her other looks. Like all women, and also all other folks, she is entitled to be the author of her own appearance. That means that she can wear as much or as little makeup as she likes. So long as she keeps churning out excellent music, we’ll keep listening. Speaking of which, if you’ll excuse us, we need to listen to “Bodak Yellow” one or ten times.

Ryan Edwards: Did the Teen Mom OG Reunion Prove He’s Back on Heroin?

You know how Mackenzie Standifer is pretty much the most hated person on Teen Mom right now? Yeah, that reunion special didn't really help things much. In both the first and second parts of the reunion, Mackenzie came on with Ryan Edwards to talk about his drug addiction and his coparenting relationship with Maci Bookout. If you watched, then you know Mackenzie did most of the talking while Ryan sat beside her with those wild eyes of his. They claimed a bunch of different things in their segments, but when you compile all the stories together, one thing becomes clear. There seems to be a very, very small chance that Ryan is actually clean these days. 1. Lots and Lots of Drugs As you’ve probably heard, Ryan was dealing with a pretty severe heroin problem last year. He was shooting up, Mackenzie claimed he was spending around $10,000 a week on his habit, and at one point last spring he was even arrested. 2. Turning Things Around But after nodding off while driving himself and his bride to their first wedding, he went off to rehab for a few weeks. Yep, just a few weeks — he checked out early, and after he did, he was seen knocking back beers and badmouthing Maci. Not a great look for someone in his position. 3. It’s All Maci’s Fault But as soon as Ryan came home from rehab, he and Mackenzie both felt comfortable putting so much blame for everything on Maci. She triggered him into doing heroin, she knew he was doing heroin and didn’t directly discuss it with the people who lived with him and saw him regularly, so basically Ryan’s entire drug problem was her fault. Because that makes sense. 4. … Come On They slammed Maci for refusing to let Ryan spend time with their son until he was able to pass a drug test, and they even made fun of her for admitting that she’d cried many times over Ryan — because to them, that meant she was still in love with him, not that she was afraid her son’s father could die. 5. Hmmm Then, leading up to the season finale, Ryan began acting strangely — he seemed depressed about Mackenzie’s pregnancy news, telling her to call him when the kid turned three and even suggesting at one point that they separate for the duration of her pregnancy. He also complained of feeling sick, being very cold, and needing to lie down throughout her ultrasound. 6. Oh, Ryan … Considering all these things together, many Teen Mom fans became convinced than Ryan had relapsed. He may have been irritable because he’d rather be getting high, he was feeling sick because it had been too long since he’d doone drugs, that kind of thing. View Slideshow

Pippa Middleton: Pregnant with First Child! Almost Definitely!

We’ve asked the question multiple times over the past few months. Is  Pippa Middleton pregnant , read a headline on this website in August. Wait… is Pippa Middleton pregnant already , read a different headline in October. Now, however, we’re ready to ditch the question mark and make it an exclamation instead: Pippa Middleton is pregnant, folks!!!!! For real this time! We think! Rumors of Kate’s sister expecting her first child with husband James Matthews are stronger than ever today, following a report in The Sun that stated exactly this. A mostly reliable source, this British publication reports that Pippa recently started sharing the exciting news with her close friends, now that her 12-week scan has taken place and everything seems healthy. “When Pippa found out she was pregnant , she was obviously thrilled and utterly overjoyed,” an insider tells The Sun, adding: “Naturally, big sister Kate and parents, Carole and Michael, were the first people she told – James aside – and they could not have been more delighted.” It’s been a difficult few weeks for Middleton and Matthews, considering the latter’s father was just arrested for the alleged rape of a minor . Yikes, right?!? As any Royal Family follower knows well, of course, Pippa’s very famous sister is also pregnant. Kate and Prince Williams are expecting their third kid any day now. Heck, any hour now, really. Pippa’s announcement also comes weeks after James’ younger brother, former Made In Chelsea star Spencer Matthews, and his fiancee, confirmed they were expecting their first child. Talk about a lot of small children about to enter this family! Writes The Sun: “Pippa and James have always known they wanted children. They have made the most of their first few months of marriage and felt the time was right to expand their family.” Middleton and Matthews got married in May of 2017. Pippa was sort of well known before Kate got married six years before that, but she sky-rocketed to fame on the day of her sibling’s wedding, as millions of people around the world gawked over Pippa’s rear end. We’re not being crude. It’s true: the world was very impressed by Pippa Middleton’s butt at the time. This is one of the photos that went viral back in 2011 and which explains why: Now, however, the world will be focused on Pippa’s front. She’s expected to give birth some time in October. The Sun says that Kate “could not have been more delighted” upon learning this news from her sister… and we feel the same way! We send our very best wishes to Pippa, James, Kate, William and ALL parents-to-be in the near future. May your children be born as healthy and as happy as humanly possible.

Mackenzie Standifer: Is She FINALLY Divorcing Ryan Edwards?!

Just last summer,  Ryan Edwards and Mackenzie Standifer got married in one of the most depressng ceremonies ever captured on video. It seemed like the couple was starting at rock bottom, but remarkably, it's been all downhill ever since. In the past month, Ryan has been arrested ; he's been accused of making violent threats, and he's been caught cheating on Mackenzie. Through it all, he and Standifer have kept up appearances, but it now looks as though they're on the verge of self-destruction. 1. The Troubled Couple Ryan and Mackenzie were never exactly a match made in heaven. In fact, their marriage seemed doomed from the start. 2. A Terrifying Ride On the ride to their wedding, Ryan was so high on heroin and Xanax that he lost consciousness while driving. He checked into rehab shortly after he and Mackenzie exchanged vows. 3. The Downward Spiral After he left treatment, their relationship seemed to slightly improve. In the months that followed, however, their situation has only gotten much, much worse. 4. A Growing Family Last month, Mackenzie revealed that she’s pregnant with Ryan’s baby. Unfortunately, the news came at a very dark time for Edwards. 5. A Major Rough Patch News of the pregnancy came on the heels of reports that Ryan had been arrested and had been caught using Tinder to try and cheat on Mackenzie. 6. One Loyal Wife Remarkably, it originally looked as though Mackenzie intended to stick by Ryan’s side despite some seriously troubling behavior. But now, it seems she’s come to her senses… View Slideshow
