Source: E! Entertainment / Getty Van Jones Credits Kim Kardashian For Getting First Step Act Passed Van Jones’ enthusiasm for Kim Kardashian’s efforts at prison reform is somewhat understandable, but he’s taking it a bit far. TMZ caught up with CNN’s resident political analyst and he gushed about the Senate passing the First Step Act in an overwhelming 87-12 vote. The act aims to free 50,000 people from prison and end the inhumane treatment of women inmates. Make no mistake, this is very good thing. That said, you’re hard-pressed to convince us that Kim Kardashian’s meeting with Donald Trump is the sole reason this legislation passed. We’re sure she made her case while speaking to Donnie, but nah, we need receipts before we just jump out the window and give her ALL the credit. Peep what Van had to say in the video below.

Source: ANGELA WEISS / Getty Pete Davidson Alarms Fans After Posting Concerning Messages To IG Some cryptic messages had fans and celebrities alike worried about SNL ‘s Pete Davidson on Saturday, which he posted before quickly deleting his Instagram page completely. Following Kanye West’s tweetstorm the previous day, where he addressed mental illness and his desire to desire to destigmatize it, Davidson–who is diagnosed with borderline personality disorder–posted a note saying that he doesn’t “want to be on this Earth anymore” before another note praising Kanye for his bravery in speaking out against mental health. In the first, now-deleted note, Pete wrote, “i really don’t wanna be on this earth anymore. i’m doing my best to stay here for you but i actually don’t know how much longer i can last. all i’ve ever tried to do was help people. just remember i told you so.” No matter what we think of celebrities or public figures, Pete Davidson is a human being who deserves to live. The thousands of hurtful comments to him are shameful and inhumane. Please know Pete, that you are loved by millions. Most of all, your family loves you unconditionally. pic.twitter.com/t5EFwCboEd — Eugene Gu, MD (@eugenegu) December 15, 2018 This was followed by Davidson’s post praising Mr. West for his bravery in which he wrote, “Bravo Kanye West for standing up for yourself and speaking out against mental health. I can’t explain to you enough how difficult and scary it is to be honest about stuff like this. We need people like Kanye. No one should ever point fingers at you for your bravery in speaking about mental health. I’m seriously disgusted.” The first sentiment is what really got people worried, and though some people posted negative comments on Pete’s actual post before deletion, the rest of the internet seemed to rally behind Davidson with celebrities like Nicki Minaj, Kid Cudi, and Jada Pinkett-Smith all reaching out to the comedian. Machine Gun Kelly even hopped right on a plane to fly to New York and make sure his friend was okay, since many who reached out were reporting that his phone was turned off. Pete Davidson … hang in there. There is a lot of help out here. Surrender to some love some where around you … today! Right now! And then … let in the help that will become available. I’m praying for you Pete. I’ve been there. It gets better. — Jada Pinkett Smith (@jadapsmith) December 15, 2018 im in the plane now on the way to see Pete. gonna make sure he’s good, i promise. can’t have my boy in the darkness like that. — colson (@machinegunkelly) December 15, 2018 As it turns out, it looks like Pete was at Saturday Night Live rehearsal while this all went down, and he actually ended up appearing on the show last night for a brief moment to introduce the show’s musical guest. Along with other celebrities, Davidson’s ex Ariana Grande also seemed concerned about his Instagram posts, releasing tweets apologizing for joking about Kanye and then seemingly showing up at 30 Rock in case Pete needed anything. Grande’s now-deleted tweets read, “”i’m so sorry i told a dumb joke,” she said. “i really didn’t mean any harm. all i want everyone to be healthy and happy. so desperately. please. my god,” she posted regarding her tweets about listening to her new single instead of watching grown men argue online. Her next tweet read, “I’m downstairs and I’m not going anywhere if you need anyone or anything,” said the following tweet. “I know u have everyone u need and that’s not me, but i’m here too.” TMZ confirmed that Grande was at 30 Rock, where Saturday Night Live is taped, to see Davidson if she got a chance. After so many calls from fans, the police did end up pulling up at SNL to do a welfare check on Pete, confirming that he was OK following the scare before he appeared briefly on the show last night.

The Migos rapper posted a video begging for Cardi B to forgive him for how he previously treated her and pleads to have his family back. Offset is determined to spend the holidays as a family with Cardi and their beautiful daughter Kulture. He mentions that in the apology video below. He also appeared to come clean about the alleged affair & attempted threesome with Cuban Doll and Summer Bunny, but wanted it to be clear that “I didn’t f*** that girl I was entertaining.” Its been a full week since Cardi took to Instagram to declare that the couple was finished, but it still remains to be seen if she grants him his birthday wish.
Source: Johnny Nunez / Getty Chief Keef Reveals More Kids With More Women In Court Before today, Chief Keef was known to be the father of 5 children–but now, it looks like he’s actually got some more on the low….a lot more. According to court documents obtained by the people over at TMZ , Keef has 4 more children under the age of 5, and they all have different mothers who are all seeking child support. The reveal of these family additions happened while the rapper was in court, making his official kid count a whopping 9. A judge is now ordering that Chief Keef pay each woman $564 in child support per month, starting in January. As TMZ points out, the “I Don’t Like” rapper could practically fill his own daycare at this point following the reveal of these new children, because all 4 of the recently revealed kids are under the age of 5. Keef’s clan now includes 3-year-old Kamiah, 1-year-old Khalo, and 4-year-olds Khalil and Kirsten. Once again, all different mothers. Though $564 a month doesn’t seem like a whole lot for a rapper’s child support–even when multiplied by 4–this might mean that the Chicago native will have to cut back on some of his expenses. Chief claims he’s a self-employed musician making roughly $9k a month with $9k in expenses, but he’ll have to fit that child support in there somewhere.
Source: Paras Griffin/Prince Williams/ATLPics.Net / Getty Doppelganger drama… Lil Mama Says She Wants To Slap Bow Wow Lil Mama recently told her doppelganger exactly how she felt about him. The “Growing Up Hip Hop Atlanta” sent a stern warning to Bow Wow this weekend after he alleged that she was “pushing up on him” and hinted to his friend BT that she was “easy.” According to Mama, that’s one of several things that Bow’s got completely wrong on the most recent episode of #GUHHATL. Mama uploaded several videos to her Instagram shunning her former friend for spreading rumors about her. “I want to start this off just by saying you played yourself, kid,” Mama said. “Bow Wow, you know, that in all the years that I’ve ever known you, you have never known a n****r to f**k me in a week. So to even give BT advice like ‘Oh y’all gonna be f**king in a week.’ you’re being a clown.” She also added that when she invited him to go with her to New York, it was for business purposes only. “I was trying to bring you around some real n****s. You want to commit suicide one day. You’re going crazy here. You’re going crazy there. I come from a grounded environment that I was trying to bring you to. We’re doing a TV show. We’re creating content. You are far from the type of man that I could see myself being with, sleeping with or anything of that nature.” Here’s the clip where Mama invited Bow to New York after he asked her to go on a blind date with a friend. Ooop! She also added in another video that she would flat out “slap the s***” outta Bow Wow “PERIOD.” Bow’s since responded and he’s joking that his lookalike is “beefing with her own self.” Source: Paras Griffin / Getty See more of Lil Mama shutting down Bow Wow on the flip.
Source: FayesVision/WENN.com / WENN.com Cardi B Raps About Divorcing Offset During A Live Performance Just last week, Cardi B announced that she and Offset were calling it quits on their marriage after a little over one year. Now, it looks like the rapper is not planning on keeping quiet about the situation; Cardi commented on the topic during a performance at Chicago’s B96 Jingle Bash concert on Saturday night. The show took place at AllState Arena with Cardi B performing along with other big names like Mike Posner, Shawn Mendez, and Camila Cabello. Cardi had an exciting set, as always, where she performed her own hits, but also gave the crowd a taste of her verse from her Migos collab, “MotorSport.” During her brand new rendition of the song, she switched some lines up to reflect the recent nature of the relationship with her husband. Instead of rapping the original lyrics of, “I get up set off/I turn Offset on/I told him the other day/Man, we should sell that porn,” Cardi rhymes, “I get up set off/I turn Offset on/I told him the other day/Yeah, we gon’ get a divorce.” PLEASE. BELCALIS. pic.twitter.com/Py9QlYrgNM — (@fentybardi) December 9, 2018 Cardi shocked fans when she announced on Instagram that the couple was on their way to splitsville. “I been trying to work things out with my baby father for a hot minute now,” she said in her now-deleted video. “And it’s nobody’s fault. It’s just like I guess we grew out of love. But we’re not together anymore. I don’t know it might take time to get a divorce. And I’m going to always have a lot of love for him because he is my daughter’s father and yeah.” Many people online have been hoping that the Bronx native and her ATL counterpart patch things up before their divorce becomes a reality–but it looks like Cardi is doubling down on her plans to become a single lady once again.
