Source: FayesVision/WENN.com / WENN Kenashia Douglas Has Beef With The Designs Of Cardi B’s Fashion Nova Kenashia Douglas feels wronged, slighted, and obviously butthurt over one of the designs in Cardi B’s sold out Fashion Nova line. The fashion designer took to Instagram to air out her feelings about having her work allegedly copied and essentially stolen. What do you think? Does Shi $hi have a point? The designs DO look VERY similar.
Cops arrested 22-year old Christopher Precopia while he was working at a lumberyard in Williamson County, TX, and accused him of burglary with intent to commit other crimes. Christopher had no idea what he was being taken to jail for, then later found out that his ex-girlfriend from high school had fabricated a story to the cops. The KVUE reports: The accuser said Precopia broke into her home in Temple and sliced an X into her chest with a box cutter. Her identity is not being made public because she is not being charged with a crime. She would later admit to Temple police that she reported Precopia because she had a rocky relationship with him several years earlier. On the night of the alleged attack, Precopia was actually 65 miles away at a hotel in Austin with his mom, Erin Precopia. Luckily, he decided to take a selfie of himself with his family that evening, which he posted on social media. Police have finally dropped the charges against Precopia nine months after his arrest. Thank God for selfies.

Source: David Becker / Getty Desiigner Is Sending A Message to Charlamagne and DJ Envy Desiigner is not happy with Charlamagne Tha God and DJ Envy after the two Breakfast Club hosts mocked his voice. In a video shared to his Instagram Story on Friday, Desiigner responded to the opening moments of a clip from the Breakfast Club in which the two hosts traded impressions of Desiigner’s voice. Angela Yee repeatedly told her co-hosts that they were being rude, but that definitely didn’t stop them from getting their jokes off. The clip has since been removed from Youtube. “I’m cool, I was laughing on the phone, but I’m a grown-ass man, bro,” Desiigner explained on Friday. “You and Envy, I would slap the shit outta y’all. Deadass. I’m a grown man, I work, I do this hard by myself. Don’t play with me.” Following that message, Desiigner later mentioned their families and urged them to go straight to work when in New York. “I’m doing something good for change,” the rapper continued. “I’m changing the world. I’m doing this shit…I will beat the shit out both of y’all…Don’t play yourself. Go to work. Go to Power 105. Go to work, bro. You got kids that go to school, n***a.” Luckily for Angela Yee, Desiigner said “it’s love” toward her. Check out what he had to say about the situation below: The subject of the since-deleted Breakfast Club segment was the Change 4 Change Radiothon, which will this year be raising funds for the youth mental health-centered Project 375 non-profit. Hopefully we get to hear the Breakfast Club hosts talk about this exchange on the show tomorrow.

(Photo by Gabe Ginsberg/Getty Images) Rob Kardashian Getting Help From Kris Jenner, Blame Blac Chyna For Financial Struggles Robert Kardashian is seeing his share of financial struggles right now and he blames it all on Blac Chyna. But no worries, mommy Kris is here to help him out! According to court documents quoting Rob obtained by The Blast , Rob says he lost thousands of dollars because of his baby mama and is now forced to sell half of his sock line Arthur George to his mother to recoup. Rob said, “When the business was struggling, my mother infused it with capital to keep it afloat and from her infusion gained a 50% share in the company. Previously, the line’s success was in large part due to my regular posting and general promotion on social media. Angela’s [Blac Chyna] request for a restraining order against me includes various prohibitions on what I could post online. In order to avoid any potential future issues, I nearly eliminated my social media presence.” Yikes! So Blac Chyna’s shenanigans last year stopped him from getting those IG coins? Will a judge see it this way? Rob is also reportedly moved in with his mother after losing his house earlier this year. “My income now is insufficient to pay for my expenses. As of Jan. 17, 2018, I am short nearly $300,000 which my accountant projects I will need to pay for my 2107 tax liabilities. I no longer own a home. I now live in my mother’s home.” Who do YOU think is to blame for Rob’s financial crisis?
Image via AAron Ontiveroz/The Denver Post via Getty Images Draymond Green Suspended For 1 Game For Cursing Out Kevin Durant “We supposed to be brothas!” goes the famous line in Menace II Society as a young man is being robbed at gunpoint for his Mustang and some fast food. Apparently, Draymond Green either didn’t see this film or didn’t take in the message, because Monday night in a game against the Clippers a mercurial Draymond was NOT treating Kevin Durant like his closest kin. He was treating him like a bi**h, or at least that what he was calling KD on the bench. A bi**h. A lot of ’em. And that was what happened ON the court. According to ESPN , here’s how it all started. Near the end of regulation, Draymond grabbed a rebound completely ignored a wide-open and hysterically clapping Kevin Durant who was calling for the ball in an attempt to win the game, and lost control of the ball before a shot could be taken. Both men were frustrated on the bench and Draymond unleashed one of his typical bratty tirades on KD. According to ESPN, things got even uglier back in the locker room after teammates chided Draymond for his poor decision. In defending himself, Draymond got loud and wrong. So loud and so wrong that people outside hear the commotion. Coach Steve Kerr did his best to tamp down the extent of the incident. “Draymond is always going to be who he is,” Kerr said. “Draymond is a powerful force. You guys know that. He’s a huge reason why we’ve had so much success here, and Draymond is going to continue playing the way he plays, and I don’t see him operating any other way.” Draymond is going to be who he is, abrasive, and KD is going to be who he is, sensitive and petty. These two might kiss and make up, but KD will not forget when it comes down to free agency this summer…
Brett D. Cove / SplashNews.com Zoe Kravitz Denies Kissing Lily Allen Zoe Kravitz and Eddie Redmayne appeared on “Watch What Happens Live” this week to promote their amazing new movie “Fantastic Beasts 2: The Crimes Of Grindelwald” (we saw it two weeks ago — it’s INCREDIBLE). During the taping a woman called in to ask Zoe whether Lily Allen warned her that she would be writing about them kissing in her book and Zoe responded with “Who Is Lily Allen?” before adding “If by kissing she means like attacking, then yes, she kissed me….attacked me.” Wow… Sounds like Lily didn’t get consent. Watch the footage below: What do you think about the way Zoe handled it? We love that she stood up for herself. And she’s probably right, a lot of people seem to have forgotten Lily Allen… Hit the flip for photos of Zoe and the rest of her “Fantastic Beasts 2: The Crimes Of Grindelwald” castmates.
FBI Reports Increase In Hate Crimes Since Trump Took Office In news that probably won’t surprise anyone, prejudice-based crimes have gone up ever since a certain someone took the reigns on the nation. A new FBI report detailing hate crime statistics has found that local law enforcement offices reported 7,175 hate crimes to the Buereau’s Uniform Crime Reporting Program in 2017. That figure was up from 6,121 crimes in 2016, a 17% increase. Now, it’s worth noting that more precincts participated in the reporting program in 2017 than in 2016, so that potentially impacted the increase. To further break it down, the FBI also documented precisely which biases the attacks were based on . 59.6% of crimes were perpetrated on the basis of race/ethnicity/ancestry 20.6% were over religion , and 15.8% were on the grounds of sexual orientation. That doesn’t even include the 69 crimes that took place on the grounds of multiple prejudices at once (such as an African American transperson, for instance). You can view the full report broken down by location, crimes, offenders, and discriminated against groups HERE . What do you think of the report?? WENN
Image via Raymond Boyd/Getty Images Chick-fil-A Shoots Down Viral Social Media Meme Sorry ladies and gentlemen, the internet has led you astray . According to the folks at TMZ , the viral meme that was blowing up on Twitter and Instagram this weekend is false, Chick-fil-A did not create their box of nuggets to fit perfectly on top of their cup of lemonade. People were losing their golden crispy minds this weekend when the meme began making its way around the net. Thing is the folks at Chick-fil-a say the only reason the boxes have those holes are for employees to designate nuggets, strips or “other”. Sorry to anyone who thought they had discovered the greatest life hack of all time. Put your nuggets atop your lemonade at your own risk.
