Get This Work: Iggy Azalea Claps Black At Haters And Nicki Minaj’s “Shady” BET Hip Hop Acceptance Speech

Does she who “runs hip hop” really want it with the Barbz? Iggy Azalea Responds To Nicki’s “No Shade” Speech Even though Miss Minaj came out and (kind-of) said that her BET statement was not meant to tear down anyone in particular but inspire better in female emcees , streets are still talking and looking at Iggy for an official statement. Fans thought they may have caught just a teensy bit of response shade from her IG account earlier today when she celebrated her record-breaking success as a female hip-hop artist: Barbz and Iggy Fans (and the occasional residual Lil’ Kim fan) alike automatically called this some form of clapback at Nicki and debated in her comment section. Iggy always has something to say to her anonymous detractors , so in true form, she took to IG again to clear the air and let everyone know she’s scared not feeding into negativity from any source for any reason. Clearly she don’t want it. Not that we think she wouldn’t have gotten absolutely murdered by Nicki, but we think it may have been at least a little fun to watch the I-G-G-Y try to clap back on a track or make a no-shade commentary of her own. But positivity is the high road, or whatever. Iggy is one of those people who looks perpetually shaken in her efforts to prove how “unbothered” she is by the attacks from her peers in the industry . What do you think, Bossip fam? Was this just a quick cop-out to move on from a battle she knows she could never win?

Vin Diesel Speaks at Paul Walker Memorial, Thanks Fans For Loving "Angel in Heaven"

Vin Diesel gave an emotional speech at the Paul Walker crash site and makeshift memorial Monday night, addressing the throng of fans who have gathered there. Paul’s co-star in the Fast and the Furious films addressed his fellow mourners, thanking them for “showing that angel in heaven how much you appreciate him.” Diesel and Walker considered each other close friends off camera, and it showed as Vin spoke to the star’s fans with a heavy heart. Check out the clip: Vin Diesel Speaks to Crowd at Paul Walker Memorial When Vin arrived at the site, an officer allowed him to use the loudspeaker from a police car to address the crowd with his short but heartfelt speech. “To show the love that you have shown Paul,” an emotional Diesel told Walker’s fans, speaking for so many of them, “it’s gonna stay with me forever.” No doubt Paul Walker’s father would approve, and agree. After the speech, TMZ asked Vin about the future of the movie franchise, and he replied, “I can’t even think about anything but the loss of a loved one.” Check out their version of Diesel’s appearance below … Vin Diesel Gets Emotional About Paul Walker Like Tyrese before him, the loss of Paul is clearly hitting Vin and the rest of the Fast family especially hard. Just imagine the actor’s actual family. All of this goes to show what a beloved person he was by all who knew him and even those who didn’t. Paul Walker just exuded a certain goodness. Fast and Furious 7 is understandably on hold following the actor’s death , but he just finished his latest film Hours , which hits theaters next weekend. He talks about it in one of his last interviews (below), telling Movie Fanatic that the experience ranks among the best in not only his career, but his life: R.I.P.

Miley Cyrus made one fashion statement and honored two hip hop legends at the MTV European Music Awards tonight.

And, no, it’s not like we didn’t already know Cyrus loves to get high . But still, Miles. Was this really necessary? On the red carpet of the ceremony, meanwhile, Miley donned an unusual dress that featured close-ups of Tupac Shakur and Biggie Smalls.
