Brody Jenner: Hell Yeah, I’ll Watch Miley Cyrus Hook Up with My Ex-Wife!

So much has happened this weekend in the world of celebrity gossip. Like, first of all, true love died when it was announced that Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth are divorcing after less than a year of marriage. Or, OK, it’s not that dramatic. It’s not like Miley and Liam were the perfect example of Hollywood romance, but their love story did go on for a very long time , and we just hoped they’d make it, all right? Sadly, it appears they simply were not meant to be. In a shocking statement a rep for the couple made to People yesterday, we learned that “Liam and Miley have agreed to separate at this time.” “Ever-evolving, changing as partners and individuals, they have decided this is what’s best while they both focus on themselves and careers,” the statement continued. “They still remain dedicated parents to all of their animals they share while lovingly taking this time apart.” The rep wrapped things up by asking everyone to “Please respect their process and privacy.” And we would love to do that, we really would, but we just can’t do that right now. Not with everything else that’s been happening. As we said, the divorce announcement came out yesterday, and you know what else came out yesterday? Some photos of Miley kissing someone else. And not just anyone else, either, but Kaitlynn Carter — a woman who, just a couple of weeks ago, was known as Brody Jenner’s wife. This is shaping up to be one wild ride, right? But hold on, it gets better. So we heard about Brody and Kaitlynn’s split just earlier this month, and of course the news about Miley and Liam just came out this weekend — both splits are pretty darn fresh. That makes the photos of Miley and Kaitlynn together questionable, because could their relationship be the reason for the broken marriages? There’s always the chance that they’ve been finding solace in each other’s arms, of course, but the timing is definitely a little suspect. Don’t worry though — Brody doesn’t seem too broken up about it! In one of the photos that Kaitlynn posted of herself with Miley, he actually commented with “Hot girl summer,” along with a flame emoji. That doesn’t sound like the comment from a man with a broken heart, does it? Lots of Kaitlynn’s followers replied to Brody’s comment, and it looks like there are a lot of theories on why he’d leave a comment like this. The most popular theory is that he’s trying to be nice to Kaitlynn so she’ll take him back — which, sorry, she seems a little busy at the moment. Another possibility is that he’s being a supportive ex, which would be nice of him And there’s always the chance that his comment is as simples as “Girls pretty me like.” View Slideshow: 19 Most Stunning Splits in Celebrity History Whatever’s going on, all of this sure is interesting, right?

Celebrity Seed Stress: Kimora Lee Simmons’ Ex Djimon Hounsou Files For Joint Custody Of Their 10-Year-Old Son, Kenzo

Source: Patrick McMullan / Getty Kimora Lee Simmons Served With Papers In New Custody Battle Fans have always praised Kimora Lee Simmons for keeping good relationships with all of her exes, but apparently, something took a left turn in her post-relationship relationship with Djimon Hounsou . Back in June on Father’s Day, Djimon complained to paparazzi that he hasn’t been able to see his 10-year-old son in a long time, and now, he’s taking legal action to try and change that. Kimora was served with papers while walking down the street in Beverly Hills on Friday, notifying her that her ex was filing for joint custody of their child, Kenzo. Kimora maintains that Hounsou is just an absent father who rarely wanted to see his son, and that’s the only reason he hasn’t. Hansu’s filings took place on August 1, and indicate that he’s petitioning to establish a parental relationship–a step taken to officially establish who Kenzo’s parents are in the eyes of the law. That might be necessary, since he and Kimora were never legally married. Included in the docs is the fact that Djimon is seeking child support, a custody arrangement with Kimora, along with visitation rights. He is requesting joint joint legal and physical custody between both parents and asks for both parties to have equal time with the child. If the Baby Phat founder is keeping her son from his father, it could be for fear that he might take Kenzo back to Africa with him and never return. Russell Simmons told TMZ that he offered Hounsou a visit with Kenzo just a few days ago, saying that he would take his son to him as long as he signs a document promising not to take the kid to Africa. According to Russell, Djimon refused. View this post on Instagram #Thinkingofyou #KLH A post shared by Djimon Hounsou (@djimon_hounsou) on Jul 20, 2019 at 4:43pm PDT

Chicago Nonprofit Aims To Combat Diabetes Within The Black Community

Link:

A frican Americans are disproportionately affected by the growing diabetes epidemic. According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services , Black adults are 80 percent more likely than whites to be diagnosed with diabetes. A new Chicago-based nonprofit is striving to reverse the alarming trend. According to Black News , The Suga Project is creating a space to foster conversations surrounding ways to combat Type 2 diabetes and the overall importance of Black health. The organization—which was founded by Natalie Pauls —was established to provide resources for African Americans who are battling diabetes and for others who want to get involved in addressing the epidemic. Cognizant of the rising numbers of Black folks who are affected by the disease, Pauls wanted to create a platform where they could feel empowered and supported. The Suga Project provides informative courses that teach individuals how to lead healthier lifestyles. “The numbers are startling,” Pauls said in a statement, according to the news outlet. “African Americans are four times more likely to have an amputation due to diabetes complications. African American women are dying at rates greater than any other group of women in history.” The organization’s overarching goal is to see a decrease in the number of diabetes cases within the Black community. Several individuals and organizations are working to spread awareness about diabetes amongst African Americans. Earlier this year actress Viola Davis teamed up with the pharmaceutical company Merck to narrate a documentary titled A Touch of Sugar that captures how the disease is impacting communities across the country. “I’m one of the 84 million American adults living with prediabetes and I’m sharing my story for the first time in an effort to inspire others to take action against the type 2 diabetes epidemic,” she said in a statement about the film. “When you look at the facts, there’s nothing harmless about diabetes – it’s a chronic disease that needs to be taken seriously if we’re going to get it under control.” SEE ALSO: Viola Davis Spreads Awareness About Diabetes Through New Documentary GirlTrek Movement Inspires Black Women To Take Charge Of Their Health [ione_media_gallery src=”https://newsone.com” id=”3459090″ overlay=”true”]

Jay-Z, Will Smith To Produce TV Series About The Civil Rights Movement’s Women Trailblazers

B rooklyn-bred mogul Jay-Z has been dedicated to bringing narratives about the Black experience in America to the forefront. He co-produced the poignant documentary Time: The Kalief Browder Story , helped develop a miniseries about Trayvon Martin and was involved in the creation of the Free Meek docuseries which delves into the Philadelphia rapper’s journey against America’s unjust criminal justice system. For his next project, he’s teaming up with Will Smith to produce a television series that is centered on the civil rights movement, CNN reported. Jay-Z & Will Smith-produced ABC series will tell Emmett Till's story from his mother's perspective https://t.co/bvRwyrK8Fn — billboard (@billboard) August 6, 2019 The ABC television show—dubbed Women of the Movement —will capture stories from the Jim Crow era through the lens of Black women. The first installment of the series will focus on Emmett Till and his mother Mamie Till ’s fight for justice after he was horrifically murdered following false accusations that he flirted with a white woman. The show’s first season was inspired by a novel penned by Devery S. Anderson titled Emmett Till: The Murder That Shocked the World and Propelled the Civil Rights Movement . Other executive producers include Roc Nation’s Tyran “Ty Ty” Smith , Overbrook Entertainment’s James Lassiter and individuals from Kapital Entertainment, The Middleton Media Group, Serendipity Film Group, and Mazo Partners. Jay-Z strives to utilize his platform to spread awareness about injustice and evoke change by inspiring individuals to take action. “If we had a power base together, it would be a much different conversation than me having a conversation by myself and trying to change America by myself,” he told the New York Times in an interview. “If I come with 40 million people, there’s a different conversation, right?” There is no word on when Women of the Movement is slated to air.

Man With A Plan: Jason Momoa Reveals Why He’s Refusing To Shoot ‘Aquaman 2’

Source: Edward Berthelot / Getty Jason Momoa Is Protesting Construction On A Hawaiian Mountain Jason Momoa isn’t backing down over his disapproval of a construction project on Hawaii’s tallest mountain, Mauna Kea. Not only that, to make matters even more serious, the actor is letting fans know that he’s refusing to start work on Aquaman 2 until something is done. Right now, the project–known as Thirty Meter Telescope–is being built there, while Indigenous Hawaiians believe that shouldn’t happen because it’s the most sacred site on Earth. Momoa had already posted on Instagram from the site, but now, he’s making himself all the way clear that he’s had enough. “F**K THIS. And TMT is 4x bigger. Sorry Warner Bros we can’t shoot Aquaman 2. Because Jason got run over by a bulldozer trying to stop the desecration of his native land,” he wrote in the caption of his Instagram post. “THIS iS NOT HAPPENING. WE ARE NOT LETTING YOU DO THIS ANYMORE. Enough is enough. Go somewhere else. Repost. This is what telescope construction looks like (Subaru Telescope, 1992). The TMT will be four times larger on unscathed land. We must protect our scared mountain from further desecration.” View this post on Instagram FUCK THIS. And TMT is 4x bigger.

Protestors were recently joined by Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, who also objected to the construction taking place on such a sacred location. “It’s not about stopping science. It’s about respecting a culture and respecting a people, and doing things the right way,” The Rock explained. “When things escalate to that emotional apex, that is a sign that something has to be done. And to full-charge-ahead isn’t the way to do it.” As for Momoa refusing to film Aquaman 2 , Warner Bros. hasn’t released a statement on the matter–but the film is still set for a December 2022 release.

Jesus Take The Wheel: More Than 800 Men Sue “Boy Scouts of America” Over Claims Of Sexual Misconduct

Source: Augustas Cetkauskas / EyeEm / Getty Group Of 800 Accuse ‘Boy Scouts Of America’ Of Sexual Misconduct According to NBC , a group calling themselves “Abused in Scouting” announced the filing of a new sexual abuse lawsuit against the Boy Scouts of America . The lawsuit was filed in Philadelphia’s Court of Common Pleas and alleges that a former scout was abused hundreds of times starting at age 12 for a period of about five years in the 70’s by a former scout leader. The lawsuit also states that the Boy Scouts of America organization knew about the abuse and intentionally covered it up. The victim is seeking $50,000 in damages from both the Boy Scouts and the individual scoutmaster. The organization also claims to have gathered testimony from more than 800 sexual abuse victims identifying more than 300 predators protected by the Boy Scouts across the United States. The organization chose to file this suit now amid worries that victims may not be entitled to recovery if the Boy Scouts file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, a move the Boy Scouts of America has reportedly been considering. .

BREAKING: Financier Jeffrey Epstein Commits Suicide In Jail While Awaiting Sex Trafficking Trial 

Source: Rick Friedman / Getty Jeffrey Epstein Commits Suicide 66-year old multimillionaire Jeffrey Epstein was found dead in his Manhattan jail cell early Saturday morning following a successful suicide attempt. The famous financier, who was facing federal sex trafficking charges, was found hanging in his cell inside the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Lower Manhattan by Federal Bureau of Prisons. Epstein was set to stand trial next year for allegedly sexually abusing dozens of minor girls in New York and Florida. He had been on suicide watch since a July 23rd incident in which he tried was found unresponsive in his cell with marks on his neck that appeared to be self-inflicted. The famous businessman pleaded not guilty to the charges, which date back to the early 2000s, but faced up to 45 years in prison if convicted.

Even while in custody, Mr. Epstein was allowed to leave the jail for 12 hours a day, six days a week, to work at his office in Florida. New documents were released on Friday, giving disturbings details about what was really going on in Epstein’s home when he’d recruit young women and girls in Florida.
