Alexis Skyy: I’m In Love With Rob Kardashian! I’m NOT Using Him For Fame!

Earlier this week, the celebrity gossip world was stunned by news that Rob Kardashian is dating Alexis Skyy . There are numerous reasons why so many were floored by this revelation: Being unemployed, living with his mom, and subjecting his exes to stalking and revenge porn campaigns haven’t exactly made Rob the most eligible bachelor in Hollywood. Despite that, Rob is apparently quite in demand in the world of semi-well-known Instagram models. In fact, it was recently rumored that Rob was banging Alexis and Summer Bunni (best known as the woman with whom Offset cheated on Cardi B) at the same time. But it seems Alexis has now emerged victorious in the battle for Rob’s dong. Many skeptics have suggested that Rob’s sudden popularity with fame-seeking young women might have to less to do with his charm and more to do with his famous last name. We’re 100 percent inclined to agree with those skeptics, but it seems Alexis finds such theorizing offensive. These days, Rob’s baby mama, Blac Chyna, is dating a rapper named Kid Buu. And it seems Buu is among the many who think there’s something fishy about Rob and Alexis’ unexpected romance. “You really wit Rob’s fat ass for love or is it just for clout,” he recently commented on Alexis’ Instagram page. “To answer ur question… I love Rob,” she replied back directly. Wow. Yeah, that just happened. Alexis is already declaring her love for Rob. To be fair, no one really knows how long these two have been going out. They just went public when Rob declared Alexis his “WCW” this past Wednesday, but it’s possible they’ve been involved for much longer than that. Or maybe they’re just moving extremely fast, as Rob tends to do. Hey, what’s the worst that could happen? Other than, ya know, Rob and Alexis end up filing numerous lawsuits against each other following an ugly breakup involving multiple allegations of domestic violence. But what are the odds that that’s gonna happen to Rob two relationships in a row? View Slideshow: Blac Chyna and Rob Kardashian: A Turbulent Timeline of Doom

Joe Budden Ready To Provide CyHi The Prynce With Copious Amounts Of The Smoke

Source: Johnny Nunez / Getty Joe Budden has long since been retired from torching microphones as a rapper, and now presides over one of the most popular podcasts online today. On that said podcast, Budden once again said that he’d welcome a challenge from CyHi the Pyrnce and said he would end the G.O.O.D. Music artist’s career in the process. The beef between CyHi the Prynce and Joe Budden began when the podcast host took shots at the Atlanta rapper over his allegiance to Kanye West’s Summer 2018 album rollout that he was curiously missing from. Budden then egged on the beef in saying that a line CyHi spit in a promotional video that suggested that he should have been in Budden’s former Slaughterhouse crew and putting up $500,000 to challenge his rival was out of the No Dope On Sundays rapper’s budget. In last Saturday’s episode of The Joe Budden Podcast , Jumpoff Joey took off the Media Joe hat and got into his rapper bag for a bit, stating quite explicitly that CyHi doesn’t want the smoke, the beef, or the fixings with him on any level. In his response to co-host Mal suggesting that Budden might be ducking CyHi, Budden said he would shut down the podcast and get back in the booth to end the beef once and for all. Check out The Joe Budden Podcast in where Budden gets into why CyHi the Prynce isn’t ready for the smoke with him. Hit the 53:00-minute mark and let it rock. — Photo: Getty

Sammi Giancola: Getting Engaged To Christian Biscardi?

We may hear wedding bells sooner than we think from Jersey Shore’s  Sammi Giancola and her boyfriend Christian Biscardi !  The two have been dating for a year and a half, and a close friend of the star shares that Sammi is going to be getting engaged in the very near future!    For all of you Sammi and Ronnie fans (if there are any), it’s now time to grab the tissues.  Ronnie Magro, who recently split with his ex , Jen Harley, following an alleged bloody fight in early January, is not taking the idea of an ‘engagement’ too well.  Do we expect him? I mean Sammi and Ronnie were together (on-off) for EIGHT years and the poor guy just went through hell with his ex.  The insider says, “Ronnie knows it’s coming” and he isn’t ready.  “He still feels like Sammi was the love of his life and the one that got away. It’s very hard for Ronnie to see Sammi so happy with Christian and some friends think that is why he stayed with Jen for so long.”  Ronnie’s close friends worry that when it does come he will have a very hard time dealing with the news and “that there’s a huge part of Ron that still loves Sammi and it hurts to know his chances with her are over,” the source added.  While Sammi and Biscardi plan for the next steps in their relationship, a source confirmed that the couple already moved in together over the summer.  They are both “fully committed and ready” to spend the rest of their lives together. “She’s really excited to begin the next chapter of her life with Christian,” says Hollywood Life source.  So much so that she even turned down the MTV spin off, Jersey Shore Family Vacation , back in April!  Jersey Shore Family Vacation: New Trailer Released! She later explained her absence was to “avoid potentially toxic situations.”  Anyone who has seen the show can probably agree that she was referring to her ex, Ronnie. (and multiple nights of bar fights)  Her statement continued: “I am at a completely different place in my life right now focusing on my business and my relationship. I am not the same as I was when I was 22. At 31, I am extremely happy in every aspect of my life and want to avoid potentially awkward situations.”   And avoiding the situation is exactly what she did… She even skipped out on  Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino’s wedding on Nov. 1. However, we learn from Sorrentino that she did send a “very heartfelt, sweet gift.” So, it’s not like she skipped the event altogether and just didn’t care. Instead, Sorrentino says it was likely because “the cameras were there, she opted not to come.”  It sounds like Sammi is enjoying and focusing on her new life out of the spotlight and come on, she has way better things to do anyway!  Like plan a wedding, perhaps?

Source: John Lamparski / Getty An arrest warrant has been issued for R. Kelly’s former manager, James Mason. Mason is accused of threatening to kill the father of Joycelyn Savage, one of the women featured in “Surviving R. Kelly.” According to CNN , the warrant was issued over the summer. When CNN called Mason Wednesday, he said he had “no comment” and referred additional questions to his attorney. In an incident report obtained by the network, Timothy Savage stated that Mason said, “I’m gonna do harm to you and your family, when I see you I’m gonna get you, I’m going to f***ing kill you.” The case was presented to a Magistrate Judge who issued a warrant in July, citing “terroristic threats and acts.” The warrant is assigned to the sheriff’s office. Joycelyn Savage’s family has claimed she is having a sexual relationship with Kelly, and that she is being manipulated by him into cutting off contact with the outside world. Her father says they haven’t heard from her in about two years. She responded to this claim in a video released in 2017 on TMZ, in which she denied she’s being held and that she had been brainwashed by the Grammy-award winning singer. “I just want everybody to know — my parents and everybody in the world — that I’m totally fine. I’m happy where I’m at and everything is OK with me,” she said in the video. Related: Father of Azriel Clary Talks “Surviving R.Kelly” & Shuts Down Critics on The QuickSilva Show R.

G eorgia-bred author Nicholas Buamah hasn’t even reached the age of 10 yet, but he’s gone further in his literary career than most authors. According to Face2Face Africa , the 7-year-old’s book was accepted into the Library of Congress. ICYMI: This 7-year-old’s book has been accepted into the Library of Congress. > https://t.co/jUBmXOij7k #F2FA #africa #panafrican #diaspora pic.twitter.com/HaydVrlOEK — Face2face Africa (@Face2faceAFRICA) December 29, 2018 Buamah’s book—titled Kayla & Kyle The Walking Dictionaries: Election Day —was created in an effort to help youngsters build their vocabulary, the news outlet writes. The book—which is being sold by retailers like Amazon and Barnes & Noble—was so effective that it was selected to be added to the Library of Congress’ collection of over 39 million books. The story is centered on siblings who are vying to become their school’s next leader and they square off in a debate before their classmates. “I developed the character of Kayla when Nicholas was younger to help teach him expanded vocabulary. After being praised by his first-grade teacher for using the word ‘collaborate’ during his first week of school, I asked Nicholas what he thought about writing a book to help his friends expand their vocabularies,” said Buamah’s mother Danielle in a statement, according to the news outlet. “He thought it was a great idea, as long as one of the main characters could be a male figure, and that’s when he created Kyle.” Buamah wants his book included in school libraries throughout the country. The next installment of his Walking Dictionary series is slated to be released in Summer 2019. He wants to use the series as an avenue to help students develop literacy skills. Buamah has other goals that span outside of the literary world. He hopes to become a mechanical engineer one day. There are many young Black authors on the rise. 8-year old author Jamarion Rainey released a book entitled ADHD and Me: The Key to help other youngsters dealing with ADHD.

Mo Money: 20 States Are Set To Raise Their Minimum Wage In 2019

Source: Mark Wilson / Getty Minimum Wage Increases Are Coming To 20 States In January Minimum wage workers have something to look forward to once 2019 rolls around. On January 1, many low-income workers in the US will be getting a raise. Minimum wage increases go into effect on or around New Year’s Day in 21 states and 19 cities, according to data collected by the nonprofit  National Employment Law Project . Approximately half of these places will see an increase due to a one-time bill passed  by voters or legislators that requires a wage hike. For example, Arkansas voters  approved an initiative last year  to increase the minimum wage to $11.00 an hour by 2021, which begins with an increase to $9.25 on Jan. 1, from what stands at $8.50 now. Other states will increase wages due to laws that require the minimum to increase with the cost of living like in Florida, where the minimum will go up from $8.25 to$8.46 to match inflation. Other states raising the minimum wage include New York, Rhode Island, Delaware, Colorado, and Arizona. It’s not only states that are making this change, though. Of the 13 cities that will increase the minimum wage on January 1, 10 are in California. Cities across CA, particularly those near Silicon Valley, are raising the minimum wage in the hopes that it will help lower-income workers get by in the growingly expensive area. As Quartz points out, economists continue to disagree about the impact of minimum-wage increases. In some cases, they have found that higher wages decrease the number of jobs available, as certain employers would rather not have another staff member than pay the minimum salary. Other studies have found that it has little effect on the number of jobs available, with few employers unable to pay the minimum.

DUI: Pleasure P Popped For Sitting Behind Steering Wheel While Slizzard On 34th Birthday

Source: Allen Berezovsky / Getty Pleasure P Arrested For DUI In Miami On Birthday Pleasure P was having a bit too much fun for his 34th birthday and ending up behind bars according to TMZ . P was in Miami ready to celebrate his born day and took to Instagram to thank his over 325,000 followers for wishing him well. He also noted that: “My birthday started off a little slow which is why I haven’t been posting the devil was trying to work, but I told his ass to go back to hell because I got some celebrating to do.” Just a few hours later Miami police spotted P weaving in and out of traffic in an SUV going over 100 MPH. Once officers pulled him over they say he reeked of alcohol and blew twice the legal limit once back at the station. Cops say that during booking P strangely asked them if he could call Shaq and Flo Rida. Not sure why exactly. Sounds like P will spend his birthday in the bing. Happy 34th, sir.

Josiah Duggar and Lauren Swanson: Look at Our Beautiful Home!

Since  Josiah Duggar and Lauren Swanson married in early summer, even hardcore Duggar fans have only gotten glimpses into their life together. Now, just in time for Christmas, the couple is showing off their beautiful home. Take a look: Right before the holidays, Josiah Duggar and Lauren Swanson finally gave fans a real look at their home. (No, their RV adventure does not count) On the couple’s shared Instagram account, they decided to give their fans a sneak peek at their home. “I can’t believe it’s almost Christmas,” Josiah and Lauren wrote on their Instagram Stories. With it, they featured a brief glimpse at their very tidy and extremely festive living room. They definitely worked hard to strike a balance between humble and celebratory, and the results are remarkably tasteful. Take a look: The carpet looks simple but comfy and easy enough to vacuum. The room’s furniture is a simple, understated gray. Throw pillows decorate the couches, softening the visual impact of the furniture while providing some very practical comfort. The neutral tones that permeate the room really allow the lights and colors of the Christmas tree to captivate your attention. With the window blinds open, their house shares its festive light with the outside as well as those within. Some Christmas trees get upstaged by a room’s decor, but there is no risk of that happening here. Notably, the Christmas tree is not the only splash of green in the room. Of particular notice — once you’re done staring at the Christmas tree, that is — is the wall’s centerpiece. “Welcome to our happily ever after,” the sign proclaims. To show how personal the sign is, and that it’s not just something that they picked up at Target, the sign continues. “Josiah and Lauren,” the sign notes. “June 30, 2018.” June 30, just barely over a week into the summer, was the couple’s wedding date. For some married couples, a “happily ever after” declaration would be seen as very optimistic. But the Duggar clan are not permitted to divorce. They really are bound to each other, for better or for worse. Hopefully, they’ll always be as happy as they are now. Josiah and Lauren are keeping quiet about pregnancy rumors that have followed them for months. Though some say that Lauren all but confirmed the rumor, others remain deeply skeptical. In fact, some fans are actively hoping that pregnancy rumors are nothing but hot air. Several fans have commented on the couple’s posts, suggesting that Lauren is young, and that they hope that they’ll follow Jinger’s example. If Lauren waits a couple of years before having a baby, she and Josiah can get to know each other. It’s worth noting that their marriage is the first time that either of them have been truly free in their adult lives. They should enjoy that time before they become parents. There may be hope for the couple — because Josiah is known for being a bit of a rebel. Some even believe that Josiah Duggar will be the first to break free from his fertility cult family . He was previously seen as more rebellious than his siblings, and though Jim Bob controls the purse strings, that can only last for so long. He and Lauren may decide to wait before having a child. But Lauren may very well be pregnant right now. Only time will tell which fans will be excited and which will be disappointed. In the mean time, we’d settle for seeing the rest of their house!
