Ex-Friend Files: Yandy Says She Can’t Forgive Kimbella For Making THESE Cruel Comments About Her Foster Daughter

Source: Kevin Mazur/WireImage/Paul Zimmerman/Getty / Getty Yandy Smith Speaks On Kimbella’s “Clout” Adoption Comments Yandy Smith is an activist/reality star/podcast co-host and a foster mom. The LHHNY star recently chatted with BOSSIP about the many hats she wears and spoke on her daughter Infinity who she met through her “Everything Girls Love P.U.D” foundation and mentored for three years. According to Yandy, Infinity, who she foster mothers, is special to her and a welcome addition to her family alongside her children Skylar and Omere. “I have been incredibly blessed to have her in my household,” said Yandy. With that in mind, it’s no wonder that Yandy’s none too pleased with Kimbella whom she says unforgivably made nasty comments she made about Infinity. Source: Naom Galai/Getty Images For Global Citizen / Getty On a recent episode of “Love & Hip Hop”, Maggie told Yandy that Kimbella spoke ill of her kids and said she adopted Infinity “for clout.” According to Kimbella however, she didn’t speak about Yandy’s kids—just solely about Infinity, and she shadily confirmed that she thought Yandy might’ve adopted the teen “to look good.” “I didn’t talk about the kids with an s, I’ve only spoke about…,” said Kimbella while in Costa Rica with JuJu. “[I said] that she was probably just doing it to just make herself look good and I HOPE it’s not the reason, and that’s how I feel about it.” She then added that she thinks Yandy’s playing victim about it. Really? Yandy spoke with BOSSIP this week and told us that Kimbella’s comments put the nail in their friendship coffin and she’s refuting claims that she adopted Infinity “for clout.” According to Yandy, she was hurt to hear Kimbella say her adopting Infinity was “fake as f**k.” “Where I draw the line is, you don’t talk about my children,” said Yandy. “That is something that is unforgivable to me. Not only are you insulting my charcter as a mother to her. You’re insulting my character as a mother to the two that you held, the two you’ve held since they were born. Yes, I was in the wedding, yes I stood by her side and I was happy to be there. I definitely felt proud to be there but that was a week and a half before that episode aired.  […] To use a child as a pawn to insult my character is wrong.” Wowwww. If YOU were Yandy could you forgive Kimbella????

Hi Haters: J. Lo Defends THAT Tribute, But What Did Motown Think?

Source: Robyn Beck/AFP/Getty Images / Getty Jennifer Lopez Defends Motown Tribute J. Lo knows you had strong opinions about her shaking her Sazon seasoned cakes during a tribute to Motown Records and she issued a response. Right after (like seriously, as soon as) she performed during last night’s Grammys, Entertainment Tonight’s Kevin Frazier stopped her to ask how she felt. He also asked her to respond to critics who think she wasn’t qualified to hit the stage to pay homage to Berry Gordy’s Detroit record label. According to Jenny from the Block, she was “humbled and honored” to sing alongside Smokey Robinson. She also shut down critics with this; “Any type of music can inspire any type of artist… You can’t tell people what to love. You can’t tell people what they can and can’t do — what they should sing or not sing.” “Any type of music can inspire any type of artist… You can't tell people what to love.

Ariana Grande Blasts Grammys Producer, Claims THIS Is The Real Reason She’s Not Performing

Source: Mike Coppola / Getty Ariana Grande Blasts Grammy Producer Ken Ehrlich Ariana Grande hit Twitter to check Grammys producer Ken Ehrlich after he claimed she isn’t performing because she felt it was too late to “pull something together.” According to the pop star, producers aren’t allowing her enough artistic freedom, so she decided to pull out. From TMZ : “The deal she wanted was to perform her massive, #1 hit, ‘7 rings.’ We’re told the show’s producer, Ken Ehrlich , told Ariana that song wouldn’t connect with the audience, so he asked her to choose a different song. Ariana felt strongly ‘7 Rings’ was what people wanted to hear, and when Ehrlich wouldn’t budge, she said she’d take a pass.” In case you missed it, “7 Rings” is the song both Princess Nokia and Soulja Boy accused Grande of jacking . 2 Chainz also came for that azz over the visual, which basically takes place in his Pink Trap House. Anyway, just before dropping her album Thank   U , Next  last night, which features a tribute to late ex-boyfriend Mac Miller, the singer hit social media to set the record straight as far as the Grammys. See her tweets below: mhmmm here it is ! “too late for her to pull something together……” pic.twitter.com/YwuBOUkZjr — Ariana Grande (@ArianaGrande) February 7, 2019 i’ve kept my mouth shut but now you’re lying about me. i can pull together a performance over night and you know that, Ken. it was when my creativity & self expression was stifled by you, that i decided not to attend. i hope the show is exactly what you want it to be and more. — Ariana Grande (@ArianaGrande) February 7, 2019 i offered 3 different songs. it’s about collaboration. it’s about feeling supported. it’s about art and honesty. not politics. not doing favors or playing games. it’s just a game y’all.. and i’m sorry but that’s not what music is to me. — Ariana Grande (@ArianaGrande) February 7, 2019 passed a Grammy’s bus with my face on it typing those. — Ariana Grande (@ArianaGrande) February 7, 2019 hope that helps everyone understand my decision. i am still grateful for the acknowledgement this year. — Ariana Grande (@ArianaGrande) February 7, 2019 anyfuckingway — Ariana Grande (@ArianaGrande) February 7, 2019 TMZ adds… “We’re told Ariana is enraged, because she actually continued to talk to the Grammys and offered to perform a song Ehrlich wanted, as long as she could sing ‘7 Rings,’ but he still wouldn’t budge. She then said sayonara and, days later, Ehrlich came back and said fine, do a medley that includes ‘7 Rings’ … but by then, Ariana was done with him.” All those tuning in this Sunday, will you miss the pop princess, or nah?

Nicki Minaj Speaks On Daily Smash Sessions With Her Man—But Is She Ready For Lil Barbie Babies?

Source: Apple Music/Beats 1 Radio / Apple Music/Beats 1 Radio Nicki Minaj Talks Kenneth Petty On Queen Radio Nicki Minaj had another episode of Queen Radio on Beats 1 on Apple Music this weekend and she spoke on a number of topics. The rapper dropped two new freestyles for her Barbz; “Barbie Drip”, a freestyle over Lil Baby/Gunna’s “Drip Too Hard” and “Barbie Goin Bad”, a remix of Meek Mill’s “Going Bad” track featuring Drake. She also spoke with blogger Kyle Anfernee about her personal life and confessed that she’s in the “best place” partially because of her man Kenneth Petty. Onika admitted that while yes, they really do have sex four times a day , their relationship is much deeper than that. According to her, he “empowers her.” “If I’m being honest, spiritually, I’m at the best place I’ve been in a long time. I think who you have in your life determines how you feel spiritually. I’m happy now with or without a man, but it just so happens the n*gga in my life, he’s known me since I was 14. He knows the real me, I don’t have to pretend. We can be around each other all day and not get bored. I know I say we f*ckin’ 4 times a day, but that’s not all we do. There’s a different level of friendship and passion I’ve never had before. So nurturing and knows just what to say to make me feel empowered.”   She also added that God has a strong presence in her life—and joked about being pregnant. She also acknowledged that she might be ready to have Kenneth children despite not being ready for motherhood in the past. Outside of that, God is always the head of my life. With or without a man, God is the head of my life. If didn’t believe in God, I wouldn’t be here still. I would be Amy Winehouse, or Marilyn Monroe. Both those women remind me of myself. You just never know. I’ve been in the healthiest place I’ve been in years. Mind, body, spirit. (*Nicki then jokes that she’s pregnant*). Anytime a guy asks me to have his baby, something just never felt right. But I definitely know that … you know? You know. Ohhhhh really??? Looks like Onika’s in it for the long run with this one.

Put On Blast: Rev. William Barber Masterfully Marinates Unseasoned Governor Bill Lee For Invoking MLK Jr. [Video]

Source: Earl Gibson III / Getty Rev. William Barber Puts Gov. Bill Lee On The Spot Over MLK Jr. Quote Each year on MLK day dusty buckets of expired imitation crab meat open their lie holes to spew quotes by Martin Luther King Jr. as if they actually know anything about the man outside of “non-violent”. This year, one such pachydermal politician, Tennessee Governor Bill Lee, got chin checked from the pulpit for quoting Dr. King while voting issues that are completely counter to what the civil rights leader believed in. The good folks who work for MSNBC’s All In with Chris Hayes put together this lil’ montage of the epic dragging. The ancestors would be proud. At :49 the good Reverend starts to shake his head because he knows where this is going and he knows what he’ll have to do in response. Glory be to God. That was beautiful.

WTF?! The Most Figgity Figgity F’d Up Things We Found Out From Both FYRE Festival Docs

Source: Craig Barritt / Getty Here’s What Went Down At The Fyre Festival The more we learn about Fyre Festival , the more we all realize this thing was doomed from the beginning. From to a lack of funding to a lack of planning, all of the problems that went down during this disastrous event stem from simply not being prepared and, from the looks of it, not really caring how unprepared they were (we’re looking at you, Billy McFarland ). Both Netflix and Hulu released documentaries on the infamous Fyre Festival this past week and it’s got the entire world talking about how insane this whole failed experiment was. Ja Rule , who founded Fyre Media with Billy McFarland, got fed up with all the slander on Sunday and ended up responding with some colorful tweets. The rapper pushes all the blame toward his former business partner and implies that neither documentary can be too trustworthy since they paid the people involved in the festival to make them. I love how ppl watch a doc and think they have all the answers… — Ja Rule (@Ruleyork) January 20, 2019 I had an amazing vision to create a festival like NO OTHER!!! I would NEVER SCAM or FRAUD anyone what sense does that make??? — Ja Rule (@Ruleyork) January 20, 2019 @Hulu PAID BILLY!!! That money should have went to the ppl in the Bahamas… @netflix PAID fuck Jerry who also did all the promo for the festival… the docs clearly have Billy at fault but let’s blame the rapper lmao ok… — Ja Rule (@Ruleyork) January 20, 2019 Ja is standing by his vision to create a one-of-a-kind festival and insists he would never scam anyone–but a scammed is exactly what all the Fyre Festival attendees got. From the soaking wet mattresses to the cheese sandwiches, here’s the craziest things we learned about Fyre Festival from the recently released documentaries. Everyone Told Billy McFarland This Thing Wouldn’t Work The deadline for the employees of Fyre Media to finish everything was unrealistic from the start, but as the festival approached, several employees expressed serious doubt and desperation about the possible outcomes. According to those former employees, Billy didn’t take any of them seriously and kept on truckin’. It’s crazy how they toasted to selling the pipe dream to losers/average Joes but #Fyre employees we’re buying the dream too — April N. Watson (@MsBIGPoV) January 19, 2019 Billy Claims He Lost All The Keys To The Luxury Villas He Paid For Fyre Festival had attendees paying tens of thousands of dollars for tickets that included stays in supposed luxury villas while on the island, but when they showed up, they were actually staying in FEMA tents. According to Billy in the Hulu doc, he most definitely had villas that he purchased and everything was going smoothly…until he lost the box with all the keys. Makes sense. There's a moment in the Hulu Fyre doc where Billy McFarland says they paid millions to rent hundreds of luxury villas on the island, but then kind of hangs his head and says they lost the box containing all the keys, and I've been thinking about it for 12 hours — Tom Gara (@tomgara) January 15, 2019   Festival Attendees Were Forced To Add Money To Their Wristbands Two weeks before the festival was set to take place, Fyre Media was reportedly in need of some serious cash. That’s when attendees were contacted and told to load up newly invented Fyre Festival wristbands with at least $3,000 to buy food and other items while onsite in the Bahamas. Had to load up the money to spend at the event on the wrist band. And told them they’d need $300 a day https://t.co/5mdKg66wL0 — a Woody Harrelson stan (@screwyoumegn) January 20, 2019 Billy was doing ANYTHING he could for a quick buck to hold over investors, but not as much as his mentor Andy was about to do…
