Another disturbing chapter in the saga of pop star Chris Brown is unfolding in Paris today. According to Huffington Post, Brown is currently in custody after being detained by French authorities on rape charges. Two unidentified individuals were detained along with Brown. They are believed to be members of his entourage. Brown’s label, Sony Music, has declined a request for comment and has not yet revealed why Brown traveled to Paris in the first place. The woman who filed the complaint says that she met Brown and his entourage on the night of January 15 at the club Le Crystal in the 8th arrondissement near the Champs-Elysees. Early on the morning of January 16, the group proceeded to Mandarin Oriental Hotel near the Concorde Plaza in central Paris, which is presumably where the alleged assault occurred. Brown, of course, is no stranger to scandals and legal entanglements. After a promising start in the music industry that began with his first single going platinum in 2004, Brown’s success as a musician became overshadowed by his increasingly tumultuous personal life. In 2009 Brown assaulted then-girlfriend Rihanna just prior to that year’s Grammy Awards ceremony. Though he avoided jail time in connection with that incident, the singer’s troubles with the law were only beginning. In 2014, Brown was imprisoned after being arrested and for assault and getting kicked out of court-ordered rehab. Though sentenced to 131 days, Brown wound up spending less than a month behind bars. Brown’s legal troubles have continued in the years since. Most recently, he was arrested after a concert in July on a felony battery charge stemming from an April 2017 incident in which he was accused of punching a man who photographed him without permission. Moments ago, CNN reported that in addition to the rape complaint, Brown is currently being held on undisclosed drug charges. The outlet reached out to Brown’s attorney, who declined to comment. We’ll have further updates on this developing story as more information becomes available. View Slideshow: 29 Pics of Chris Brown Thuggin’ It So Hard: What a Goon!
Well, it's official. Despite a ratings free fall that really became worrisome after Farrah Abraham got fired from the show, Teen Mom OG will be returning to MTV for an eighth season. The Ashley's Reality Roundup confirms that the network reached a deal with the show's stars after an unusually lengthy round of negotiations. Perhaps Amber Portwood and company are unaware of the desperate ratings situation. Someone may want to inform them that if the opportunity to re-sign again next year should arise, they probably don't want to push their luck. Check out all the details on the surprise renewal and the tense negotiations below: 1. The OGs Are Back! While the addition of Bristol Palin and Cheyenne Floyd didn’t prove to be the ratings boon producers had hoped (and served to make the “OG” title wildly inappropriate) the controversial series will be returning to MTV later this year. 2. Finally! “Everyone has finally signed their contracts, and things are up and running,” a source close to the situation tells The Ashley. 3. Tense Negotiations Yes, the entire cast is returning, which is surprising for a number of reasons. 4. Cutting Costs For one thing, as we mentioned, Bristol and Cheyenne failed to boost ratings, so many assumed they would be cut from the cast if the show returned for another season. 5. Expensive Talent Bristol, in particular, was rumored to be on the chopping block, as she got paid more than any of the other moms in her first season. 6. Another Go But both she and Cheyenne will get at least one more season on the once-wildly popular series. And they’re not the only ones whose returns were in doubt. View Slideshow
A number of people were surprised to learn that Alexis Skyy and Rob Kardashian are dating or at least appear to be dating. Blac Chyna, Rob’s ex and baby mama, wasn’t surprised — but she was furious. We have now learned that Chyna’s big fight with Alexis over the weekend was all about Rob. TMZ reports that Alexis Skyy and Blac Chyna’s physical confrontation was all about Rob Kardashian. Apparently, the “scolding” was something that Chyna had wanted to do for a long time. Sources in both women’s camps say that Chyna invited Alexis to speak at the party in order to confront her. Chyna reportedly felt and still feels that Alexis’ interactions with Rob, Chyna’s baby daddy, are inappropriate. It is sad that Alexis and Rob have known each other since 2016, when Rob was still with Chyna. Even then, sources say, Chyna thought that Alexis was entirely too chummy with her man. Chyna’s camp tells TMZ that Alexis didn’t tell the whole truth when she went on Instagram live. Yes, Chyna reportedly threw her drink, but she was apparently not the one who started it. When she brought up the past, this is when Alexis reportedly “went wild.” Only then, the tabloid reports, did Chyna throw her drink. All of Alexis’ talk about a “smackdown,” it is said, only started up after Alexis’ male friend showed up, after she had been booted from the party. TMZ notes that Chyna’s ire and even the confrontation don’t seem to have harshed anybody’s mood — or thirst. Whatever is going on between Alexis and Rob appears to be heating up. Rob has been singing Alexis’ praises as his “WCW.” (If you’re not big on social media, WCW means Women Crush Wednesday, so you’d tweet a pic of Rihanna or whomever on Wednesday to express your thirst) Maybe Alexis was flirty with Rob in 2016, but these days, it looks like it’s intensified and, significantly, it’s mutual. As you may recall, the incident between Alexis and Chyna went down on Saturday. At first, we had only Alexis’ description of what happened. The two were at a party when Chyna invited Alexis over to join her at a table. Alexis then said that Chyna threw her drink at her and demanded that she leave the party. On Instagram Live, Alexis told her fans and followers this, and announced that she planned to retaliate with a “smackdown.” So, what is the deal with Alexis and Rob? There are those who might cynically suggest that Alexis saw how Chyna was living in 2016 and decided then and there that she wanted to upgrade. If you believe that Alexis is just after a better lifestyle or a piece of that Kardashian fame, then you see her as using him. We would say that it’s always possible, but that Alexis may just be genuinely charmed with Rob. Rob’s perspective is easy to see if you’ve ever seen a photo of Alexis. She’s drop-dead gorgeous. Wherever this is headed, we just hope that things don’t end up for them like they did between Rob and Chyna. At first, when Rob got with Chyna, it seemed like a good thing. He started appearing in public more and even on camera, and shared that he was working on his health. Unfortunately and very famously, his relationship with Chyna blew up. It ended with lawsuits, revenge porn, and allegations of assault. The only truly good thing to come from that debacle was their baby, Dream Kardashian. She is precious and adorable and the world is a better place with her in it. View Slideshow: Blac Chyna and Rob Kardashian: A Turbulent Timeline of Doom

Rihanna is suing her dad Ronald Fenty for the trademark “Fenty.” According to The Umbrella singer her father is trying to use the likeness that her career created to profit off of their last name. In the lawsuit documents Rih claims that her father started an entertainment company and was conducting business improperly which looked bad on the “Fenty” brand. He also tried to create hotel resorts under the name “Fenty.” Rihanna claims in the lawsuit that he even tried to get Fenty trademarked but obviously Rihanna owns alll of that! She’s suing her dad saying that although she received his last name, her career created the world known brand of “Fenty.” We’ll see how that pans out.

Source: Derrick Salters/WENN.com / WENN Rihanna has never had the closest relationship with her father, and it looks like things are just heading more downhill for the Fenty family. News broke today that the makeup and music mogul is suing her dad, Ronald Fenty, along with his company called Fenty Entertainment, for exploiting her name for his own gains. According to court docs , Rih claims that her father created the entertainment company and has been soliciting business acting as agents of the singer. Rihanna claims that her father booked a $15 million tour in Latin America and two concerts at the Staples Center in LA and the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas for $400,000, for which she says she has no involvement in. Rihanna, who has multiple business endeavors under the Fenty name including Fenty Beauty, Savage X Fenty, and Fenty PUMA, says she sent several cease and desist letters to her father and his partner, but is now suing him as a last resort. Even though suing your father seems harsh, Rihanna isn’t the only celebrity that’s had to handle some tough situations against family members. Here’s a list of some more celebrities that got an unfortunately close look at how money–and a lot of other things–can make family turn into foes. 1. Kanye West VS. His Cousin Kanye West hasn’t been quiet about having to pay his cousin $250,000 for a laptop–in songs alone, he mentions the situation more than once. He first addresses the scenario in “Real Friends,” basically admitting that his cousin extorted him with some adult videos on his laptop. “ I had a cousin that stole my laptop that I was f***in’ bi***es on Paid that n***a 250 thousand just to get it from him” On the same album, on “No More Parties In LA,” West makes it known that he has no hard feelings toward his cousin even after having to give him a quarter million. “And as far as real friends, tell all my cousins I love ’em Even the one that stole the laptop, you dirty motherf***er” Well, not exactly no hard feelings. But the love is still there, because they’re family. 2. Jay-Z VS. Solange Not exactly a fight over money, but like Beyonce says, “of course sometimes s**t go down. When it’s a billion dollars on an elevator.” Legend says that Solange was being protective of her sister and came at Jay-Z after his cheating allegations came to light–but of course, that information isn’t going to make it out of the Knowles-Carter household. One thing’s for sure: Bey wasn’t doing anything to stop her sister from throwing some punches, so it’s a pretty good assumption that Solange was stepping up on her sister’s behalf. Hov actually spoke on the infamous elevator fight on the Rap Radar podcast back in 2017, but he didn’t elaborate on the cause. He explained: “We had one disagreement ever. Before and after, we’ve been cool. She’s like my sister. I will protect her. That’s my sister, not my sister-in-law. My sister. Period.” Nobody wins when the family feuds. 3. Kobe Bryant VS. His Parents It’s not surprising that multiple celebs have had to deal with family members trying to capitalize off their success–and Kobe Bryant knows exactly what that is like. The former Lakers star had such a big problem with his parents auctioning off valuable memorabilia they kept at his house that he decided to take them to court. They finally reached a settlement which allowed his parents to auction only six of the items, which was 10% of the original listing–which would still sell for more than $500,000. The items included items such as Kobe’s old school uniforms and replicas of NBA championship rings he had made for his parents as gifts. They were given $450,000 up front for the sale lot from Goldin Auctions, which they then used to buy a house in Las Vegas. After the settlement, both his parents made a public statement as an apology to fans and their son. 4. Frank Ocean VS. His Dad Frank Ocean’s situation with family lawsuits is a little bit different than the rest on the list–because the star is actually the one being sued. The singer’s father, Calvin Cooksey, sued Ocean for libel and is currently seeking $14 million. The whole thing started when the singer told a not-so-flattering story about his father in a Tumblr post . “I was six years old when I heard my dad call our transgender waitress a f****t as he dragged me out a neighborhood diner saying we wouldn’t be served because she was dirty. That was the last afternoon I saw my father and the first time I heard that word, I think, although it wouldn’t shock me if it wasn’t.” Frank’s father denies that this exchange ever happened. “I have never discriminated against anyone transgender or heterosexual or homosexual,” he wrote to Rolling Stone . “The events that defendant describes on June 21st 2016, that I called a transgender waitress F****T NEVER HAPPENED … The defendant is a scam artist, a fraud and a hypocrite who deceive[d] the LGBT community.” This lawsuit between Frank and his dad is still ongoing. 5. The Kardashians VS. Their Stepmom Even though family feuds are pretty tough to imagine, it’s a lot easier to see how a family would have a poor relationship with one of their step-parents. Ellen Kardashian was married to Robert Kardashian Sr. before his untimely death, so she had personal items belonging to the Kardashian children–which included their personal journals and private photos. The family ended up later suing her for copyright over these items and wanted $500,000 in damages because they claimed she hid them. The family ended up settling in 2014 while the diaries and photos were returned to the Kardashians.
Source: Caroline McCredie / Getty Rihanna Is Suing Her Father For Trying To Jack The Fenty Name It looks like Rihanna’s relationship with her father isn’t getting better any time soon. According to reports from The Blast , the makeup mogul is suing her dad, Ronald Fenty–along with his company called Fenty Entertainment–for exploiting her name for his own gains. According to court docs, Ms. Robyn Fenty claims that her father along with another man, Moses Perkins, created the entertainment company and have been soliciting business acting as agents of the singer, the site reports. The singer says she is not involved with Fenty Entertainment what-so-ever, and that “Although Mr. Fenty is Rihanna’s father, he does not have, and never has had, authority to act on Rihanna’s behalf.” Rihanna claims that her father booked a $15 million tour in Latin America and two concerts at the Staples Center in LA and the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas for $400,000, for which she says she has no involvement in. Rihanna also says that her father claims he got approval from her label, Roc Nation, before booking, but the singer argues that no one from Roc Nation knew about the endeavors. Rihanna, who has multiple business endeavors under the Fenty name including Fenty Beauty, Savage X Fenty, and Fenty PUMA, says she sent several cease and desist letters to her father and his partner, but to no avail. Rih is asking the judge to place an injunction on Fenty Entertainment, and for the damages, according to reports from TMZ . As we mentioned before, Rihanna’s relationship with her father hasn’t been too positive in the past either, and she has spoken previously about him being physically abusive to her mother.

My favorite Rihanna story, which is probably the only Rihanna story I’ve got, is that I met a dude from Barbados a bunch of years ago, right when the country was hating on her because the government had just given her a bunch of Crown land for her contribution to the marketing of the island…back when she was at the peak of her celebrity, when celebrity mattered and was more than just running a MEME account….and bitch would snob out the locals who she knew her entire life…lik she would intentionally be a diva cunt cuz she knew she was better than them…treating them like the hired help she probably was when she was growing up….anyway…you get what I am saying, diva from small island, goes back to small island after becoming rich and famous and is a cunt to the locals…typical story you’d expect…… Dude made it very clear to me that she was poor as shit when she was growing up, like real life shantytown shit, and that when she was 14 she become a sex worker, where she found the British dude who brought her to America and sold her off to Jay Z….because if you’ve hear Rihanna sing, you’ll know she’s not nearly talented enough to end up being imported into America and cultivated into a popstar…. There’s the whole immigration thing, the navigating importing sluts from a small island, getting her a place to live…a lot went into her career…all while there are perfectly equally if not more talented people in Brooklyn next to Jay Z’s fucking investment properties….there is no logical reason why Rihanna happened, there was no youtube channel or viral video at the time…it was straight up teen girl abducted and brought to America….and for that I will always find her compelling….what do you want from me, I like whores.
