Source: Miami Herald / Getty DJ Khaled has had a career based on positivity and building up other people trying to better their careers. He keeps talking about “they” and those who would hold us back, all in an attempt to boost up those who need it. That has taken him far as others have collaborated with him with no problem. That all came crashing down this weekend when he threw a fit over Tyler The Creator’s album topping his for number one on the Billboard 100. This has confused everyone who thought Khaled would be gracious in his second-place finish. Yet when he released a now-deleted video sending subs at Tyler’s album and then going so far as to sue Billboard over it, he turned into the “they” he has always hated. Now, things have been rectified and his album is actually number one, but that has only made the slander worse. Take a look… Criticizing your fellow artists out of jealousy is never a good look, especially if you live in a glass house.

Teen Mom OG is back, folks! And you know what that means — more legal trouble for Ryan Edwards! Monday night's episode depicted Edwards' arrest back in January — the one that landed him behind bars for almost three months. Obviously, we knew from the start that it was a sad situation, but we don't know just how sad it was until last night. The show put the focus on the many people who were let down by Ryan's latest relapse and the ways in which their lives were affected. Here's a quick look at how it all went down: 1. The Family Man After 90 days in rehab, it looked as though Ryan would be content to return to the life of a husband and father. But it wasn’t long before his old restlessness returned. 2. Making Up For Lost Time Ryan’s wife, Mackenzie Standifer, laughed about Ryan forcing her into therapy, but she was clearly happy to have him back — and not just to “change some diapers,” as she jokingly claimed. 3. Mackenzie Making Moves For obvious reasons, Mackenzie was intent on ensuring that Ryan remained sober, and it seems she believed that maintaining a strong connection to both of his sons would be crucial to his efforts to keep clean. 4. Maci In the Middle So even though Ryan is not supposed to have any contact with Maci according to the terms of his restraining order, Mackenzie reached out to his ex to try and re-open the lines of communication. 5. Strict Terms After issuing death threats to Maci’s husband, Ryan was not even supposed to contact her through a third party, but clearly, Bookout shares Standifer’s opinion that it’s crucial he continue to have a relationship with his eldest son. 6. Understandably Frustrated “Technically, he’s not supposed to and I was like, ‘Okay, yeah, sure.’ He said he would like to meet with me,” she explained at one point. View Slideshow
Tristan Thompson is a dedicated rebounder on the basketball court. The Cleveland Cavaliers power forward has made a living by hustling all over the place for loose balls and errant field goal attempts. According to newly-released court documents, however, Thompson is nearly the exact opposite as a father. His first baby mama, Jordan Craig, claims Tristan isn’t anything close to a dedicated parent. Back in November of 2018, Craig filed legal papers as part of her declaration against Thompson in her battle for child support. These documents have been obtained by Radar Online and Craig states in them that Thompson saw the couple’s son, Prince, one time in 2016. And four times in 2017. And four more times in 2018. That’s a total of just nine times in two years, and Craig adds that Tristan was only alone with his child during one of these visits. “I have given Tristan almost two years to step up and assume the fatherly role for our son. As set forth below in detail, he has failed to do so,” Craig wrote in her declaration to the court. She added at the time: “I cannot force Tristan to be a father. I have been and will continue to be the sole caretaker of our son. It is my pleasure to care for him daily and tend to his needs. “I only ask that the court order Tristan to pay child support in the amount he is legally required to under the guidelines.” Tristan categorized Craig’s calculations as “inaccurate.” In the end, however, he agreed to pay her $40,000 per month in child support – and also was ordered to pay Craig $200,000 for retroactive child support within 10 days of signing the May 14, 2019 settlement. Craig and Thompson dated back in 2016. But he then left her for Khloe Kardashian, someone with whom Thompson had been sleeping during his romance with Craig. She also made this accusation in other court documents. Craig has even alleged the very public tryst gave her “s erious pregnancy complications ,” and she was forced by a doctor to go on bed rest. For her part, Khloe has often trashed Thompson as a boyfriend because, come on… the guy cheated on her left and right! But she’s always made a point of defending Tristan as a father to their daughter, True. Could this be because Thompson has learned his lesson and is truly interested in being a part of their kid’s life? Or could Khloe just be covering for her ex because she doesn’t want True to grow up and read horrible headlines about one of her parents?

Though reports have said that Kylie Jenner and Jordyn Woods are repairing their friendship behind Khloe’s back , Kylie’s recent post tells another story. She honored her bestie, Stassie Karanikolaou, on her birthday. But Kylie took things one step further — and threw some cruel shade in the direction of her former friend, Jordyn. Ouch . “Happy birthday to the baddest @stassiebaby,” Kylie Jenner gushed on Instagram. Stassie Karanikolaou turned 22 years old on Sunday, June 9. Kylie followed her opening line with a string of emojis, including birthday horns and red hearts. “9 years Iater,” Kylie remarked. “And you’re still a real one.” Kylie’s affectionate message concluded: “I love you forever and always.” The black and white photo that Kylie selected to accompany her kind words featured Stassie’s butt fairly prominently. But not even that booty pic could distract Kylie’s fans and followers from Kylie’s words. The line about “9 years later” is a clear reference to their enduring friendship, which began when they were just tweens. But “and you’re still a real one” is hard to view as neutral praise in this context. Why? Because everyone has to be thinking about Jordyn’s absence, which means that Kylie may be implying that Jordyn was just a fake friend. Interestingly, Kylie and Stassie happened to be at the same place as their ex-friend over the weekend. Kylie announced to her fans that she was spending a “Bestie birthday weekend” with Stassie. The pair went to West Hollywood’s Bootsy Bellows nightclub, sharing snaps the entire night. Jordyn Woods was also spotted there, though Jordyn for some reason elected to now share any pics, and didn’t show up in any of their photos. Coincidence? A little light stalking of your ex besties? Or does this lend credence to reports that Kylie and Jordyn and mending their shattered friendship, but keeping it hidden from Khloe? As we previously reported, there are whispers that Kylie and Jordyn are very quietly patching things up. “Their relationship is on the road to recovery,” an insider reported just days ago. That said, she’s apparently not rushing things. According to the source: “Kylie knows the separation from Jordyn will help both of them — and Kylie’s family — to heal.” That makes sense — and would explain why they’d avoid any photos together. In the mean time, Jordyn may be in no great hurry to to once again be glued at the hip to Kylie. “Jordyn has been trying to show the world that she isn’t riding on the Jenner-Kardashian coattails any longer,” the insider explained. She wasn’t just besties with Kylie — they were like sisters. She lived in Kylie’s guest house. “And,” the source added. “That she’s doing her own thing and living her life comfortably.” She wants to prove that she can do things on her own, without the aid of her billionaire ex-bestie. We would like to believe that the fractured friendship can be repaired, but we don’t know if ti’s really happening. What we do know is that we hope that Stassie was paying close attention when Kylie suddenly severed all ties with Jordyn. She did it because of Khloe’s temper tantrum. Because Khloe wanted someone safe to blame after she chose to have a baby with a known cheater. Stassie and Kylie may be like sisters, but when the Kardashians talk about “the power of family,” they’re talking about blood relations. One day, Stassie might find herself discarded, blacklisted, and humiliated just like Jordyn was. Enjoy this friendship while it lasts, girl.

Source: Miami Herald / Getty DJ Khaled is supposed to be all about positivity, unless his album doesn’t do no. 1, allegedly. The Miami rapper/DJ/producer/self-promoter is reportedly prepping to sue Billboard because he really was big mad his Father of Asahd album came in seconds to Tyler, the Creator’s IGOR . Apparently, Khaled feels Billboard didn’t count 100K in sales. Reports Page Six : DJ Khaled is poised to hit the Billboard Chart with a monster lawsuit alleging the organization unfairly disqualified more than 100,000 sales of “Father of Asahd,” robbing him of the No. 1 spot. Khaled was furious when his album came in at No. 2 to Tyler, the Creator’s “IGOR,” after Billboard allegedly discounted downloads sold by the DJ and producer as part of a “bundle deal” with an energy drink. Bundle deals, which offer album downloads alongside merchandise, are a standard but controversial industry practice to boost sales. We’re told Billboard had agreed it would count downloads from Khaled’s energy drink package, which sources in the artist’s camp say amounted to more than 100,000. Billboard later backtracked, disqualifying Khaled’s entire sales from the promotion, arguing there were “anomalies” in his figures. Page Six has exclusively learned that lawyers for Khaled have fired off a letter to Silvio Pietroluongo, SVP of charts and data development at Billboard. Reportedly, Khaled’s team also feels a ways before Tyler, the Creator’s bundles sales were included in his figures. The things is, at this point, it doesn’t matter. If people were/are rocking with Khaled’s new album, they’d be bumping it no matter what, but it seems like that just isn’t the case—no shots.
Source: Justin Sullivan / Getty Uber Driver Receives Multiple Charges For Raping Baltimore Woman With every story that breaks about these ride sharing apps, it becomes more and more difficult to trust these drivers, and here’s another incident that drives home the exact sentiment. An Uber driver in Baltimore has been charged with raping one of his passengers in the back seat of his car. Police charged 31-year-old Joshua Robinson with rape and assault on Friday after he reportedly raped and assaulted a 25-year-old woman on the night of June 1. According to investigators on the case, someone ordered an Uber to pick the woman up to be taken home at around 10:30 p.m. When she didn’t make it home on time, her father panicked and used a phone app to find her location. That is when, officials said, she was found in the area of Jenifer Road and W. Timonium Road. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ When the woman’s worried father arrived at the location, he saw a car parked and ended up walking right up to it. When the father opened the door, he found his daughter lying in the back seat of the vehicle appearing “visibly upset.” Robinson was also in the back seat. After that, the father and Robinson got into an argument, in which Robinson punched the man in his face and got into his driver’s seat after throwing the victim’s purse out of the car. Finally, Robinson then fled the scene. Joshua Jamaal Robinson was arrested on Thursday and charged with second-degree rape, third-degree sex offense, fourth-degree sex offense and two counts of second-degree assault. He is currently being held without bond at the Baltimore County Department of Corrections. Officials from Uber ended up releasing a statement, saying the following: “What’s been reported is appalling beyond words. We removed the driver from the app as soon as this was reported to us. We will work with police on their investigation.” And there you have it. Do you still trust these ride-sharing apps to get you to your destination safely?

Drake dapping the fans like he gave it everything he had https://t.co/vIeoUXnEtH — 73-9 and they LIED (@CuffsTheLegend) June 11, 2019 Drake is a Toronto Raptors superfan. This isn’t a question. He’s been all over the NBA Finals looking like a madman cheering, posting petty social media taunts and screaming until his voice went hoarse. He was on his full a$$ cheerleader display, but when the Raptors lost he looked like he gave it his all on the court.

It was yet another display of Drake being the most hilarious celebrity in the game. Take a look…
Source: SPEX PHOTOGRAPHY, INC / SPEX PHOTOGRAPHY, INC Spice is wrapping up her time in the Gambia and preparing to head to Trinidad at the beginning of tonight’s episode of Love and Hip-Hop Atlanta . The rest of the group is on a swamp tour and all the fun touristy tings. It’s all good until Rasheeda confronts Kirk about not telling her that he has been texting with Jasmine (Rasheeda found out by just so happening to see the texts in his phone). Initially, his daughter was the go-between, between Kirk and Jasmine but she got tired of that, because it’s obviously exhausting and sometimes inconvenient, so Kirk ended up communicating with Jasmine directly without telling Rasheeda. Rasheeda is pissed because, obvious trust issues, but Kirk actually gives her a sensical explanation, which is that it just makes sense to deal with Jasmine directly and not ad middle man when it comes to their son. That doesn’t excuse him not being honest, but he has long been not honest at times, so… Later on, Rasheeda decides not to deal with it on the trip and wait until they get home, but this has become a thing. She complains about it to the Bam, Mimi, and Shekinah. They support their girl and tell her to open a line of communication with Jasmine. We’ll see what happens with that when they get back to Atlanta. Let’s fast forward a bit. Spice links with socca legends, Machel Montano and Destra, in preparation of Machel Mondays. This is the non-drama portion of the program where Machel tells Spice how much he loves her natural beauty. This is all because Spice is conflicted about whether she should sing “Black Hypocrisy” or not. We don’t know whether she’s going to sing the song or not but Machel’s pep seems to be motivation for a good show. The other ladies have a beach day, and the whole, “Did Karlie have a threesome with Hiriam and Pooh or not” situation comes up…again. Mimi fans the flames by mentioning that the story has mysteriously leaked to #TheBlogs, but no one knows who leaked it. Then, Karlie suggests taking a lie detector test. We’ll have to wait until another episode for that drama, but at least they didn’t attempt to brawl this time. Back in the A, Che Mack is back talking to made Man. She has been nursing him back to health since he got shot but she still hasn’t forgiven him for cheating (even though he denies it). She moved out and got her own place but Made Man wants her to come back home. She loves him and all, but she can’t trust him so that’s not going to help him. Back in Trinidad, the group turns up at Machel Monday. Spice, who is dubbed the Queen of Dancehall, does her thing in a spirited opening number with backing from Destra, the Queen of Bacchanal. A good time was had by all. But it’s back to reality next week!
