Some sleuths online seemingly managed to figure out that Nicki Minaj will appear on the track, and the week-long delay of its release seems to confirm that. The Minaj Society Twitter account posted a tweet Sunday (August 4) that showed a Shazam result for “Hot Girl Summer” with Minaj and Ty Dolla $ign as the featured guests on the track. The pair sparked rumors last month after appearing on each other’s Instagram Live feeds, and Megan herself told her adoring fans that the song would be delayed a week for a rather special reason. It’s safe to assume that the Hotties and Barbz are going to be blasting this track for the rest of the summer should the Nicki Minaj cameo come to fruition. “Hot Girl Summer” drops on Friday, August 9. According to @Shazam , Nicki Minaj is featured on “Hot Girl Summer” by Megan Thee Stallion. pic.twitter.com/w2x8ABUR8A — Minaj Society (@MinajSociety) August 4, 2019 Oh, here’s a video of Megan Thee Stallion running in a bikini because, why not?

One thing about me is, I’m gonna respect him to the death, ’cause he didn’t do anything, per se. I don’t hate him.” Hear Monica addressing her divorce at the 9:36 mark.

It’s been four months since the college admissions bribery scandal shocked the world and left numerous high-status families in disarray. Deservedly or not, actress Lori Loughlin became the face of the scandal, and no matter the outcome of her upcoming trial, her role as a tabloid staple will likely continue to eclipse her acting career. Unlike many of her famous co-conspirators, Loughlin did not accept a plea deal and is reportedly confident that she’ll be cleared of all charges. Legal experts say that’s a longshot, and many have predicted that Loughlin will serve some time in prison . And of course, Lori has already paid the price for her involvement with the damage done to her relationship with her daughters. For months now, insiders have claimed that Loughlin is no longer on speaking terms with her youngest daughter, Olivia Jade Gianulli. Both of Loughlin’s daughters dropped out of school following their mother’s arrest, but Olivia was hit hardest. A successful Instagram influencer with a following in the millions, Olivia claimed that she never even wanted to go to college, and attended USC solely to make her parents happy. When the admissions scandal broke, Olivia’s public image suffered immensely, and both she and older sister Isabella went dark on social media. Over the weekend, the sisters both broke their silence with posts honoring their mother on her birthday. “Happy birthday mama. I love you,” Olivia captioned the photo above. The post came as a surprise to many, not only because it was Olivia’s first in months, but also because she and Lori were still rumored to be on the outs. The situation was so bad at one point that after dropping out of school, Olivia moved in with her boyfriend in order to avoid living with her parents. “Olivia is furious with her parents and it’s going to take a lot to repair their relationship,” a source told Entertainment Tonight at the time. “She blames them entirely and feels they have ruined her career.” The insider added: “Everything that’s going on with her parents is very stressful for her and she needs some space. “She’s doesn’t feel that it’s healthy for her to live with her parents right now.” So it sounds as though Lori has officially repaired her relationship with her daughter. Unfortunately, that’s just the first of many hurdles she’ll need to clear in the months to come.
Convinced that Khloe Kardashian is out to trash his reputation , Tristan Thompson is desperate for everyone to think he’s a good guy. That’s probably why he keeps posting cute pics of his kids , though most Kardashian fans aren’t buying it. Tristan was at it again this weekend, with a fresh shot of his two-year-old son Prince living it up on a yacht. Prince is a seriousy precious kid, and the cute factor is on full display in Tristan’s new Instagram post. The shot shows Prince grinning excitedly as he lounges on the deck of the yacht, with his hands behind his head. He’s sporting a plaid bathing suit, and his very own personalized bling, a gold necklace with a pendant shaped like the letter P, for Prince. All in all it looks like Prince is having a beautiful sunny day out on the water and frankly it’s hard not to be a little envious. “My little Prince is living life,” said Tristan in the photo’s caption, adding a heart-eyed smiley emoji. And living it well, it seems! We love that Tristan is so obviously overcome by his own kid’s cuteness. And judging from the huge flood of comments that quickly followed the post, fans were feeling the love too. “Awww he’s so cute!!” wrote one commentor. “Omg he’s soooo beautiful,” agreed another, adding a kissy face emoji. “Living the best life!” another comment said. “This so playa haha,” wrote fellow NBA player Jordan Clarkson. He’s not wrong! Despite only being two, Prince does have an indefinable swagger about him in this shot. Maybe it’s just the chain? Although many users popped in to praise the photo and compliement Prince, there was not a lot of love for Tristan in the comments. Indeed, many of the comments made it plain that fans have not forgiven Tristan for his cheating playboy antics. “We’re still salty about Khloe,” one comment said. “Exactly!” another poster agreed, adding ‘Imagine when his kids grow up and find out how he treated their mums.” Other comments focused on his reputation as a deadbeat dad. “The one time he gets his kid, he posts,” said one comment. You can almost hear the eye roll coming from this user. Another commentor chimed in, “I’m glad to see this photo people commenting you don’t spend time with your son.” Fans also noticed the absence of Tristan’s daughter and Prince’s half-sister True, with several comments wondering why she wasn’t in the pic. It turns out True was exactly where she belongs, spending the weekend at home with her mom, Khloe Kardashian. Khloe’s Instagram story showed an equally adorable video of True splashing around in her blow-up pool over the weekend. It may not be a yacht, but hey maybe next time. We’re pretty sure Khloe could make that happen. Even if Tristan wanted to hang out with Prince and True at the same time, we aren’t sure about the logistics of making it happen. Given their past entanglements, we can’t imagine Khloe collaborating with Jordan Craig to organize that particular play date very often. But we know Prince and True have met before, and we hope that Prince gets plenty more chances to hang out with his sister at some point. In the mean time, we’re loving the father-son bonding on display during this boys’ weekend excursion. View Slideshow: Tristan Thompson: CAUGHT with Two New Women!
Source: AlexSava / Getty 1 Dead, 5 Injured On Set Of Music Video In Philadelphia A 21-year-old man was reportedly shot dead, and five others injured, while filming a music video in Southwest Philly last night. According to reports, no arrests have been made and none of the victims has been identified at this time. From 6ABC : Police said one person is dead and five others are wounded after shots rang out moments before a rap video production was about to get underway on Sunday night in Southwest Philadelphia. It happened around 8 p.m. along the 2600 block of Carroll Street. Officers arrived at the scene to find six shooting victims. Police confirm a 21-year-old man was shot in the head and pronounced dead at the scene. Another 23-year-old man was also found with a gunshot wound to the head. He was taken to the hospital in critical condition. “They were about to shoot a rap video when someone, a couple of people, came and shot one or more or persons,” said Philadelphia Police Commissioner Richard Ross. “These all very young men. Sadly this is what we see over and over again, but you know hopefully we’ll get someone to step forward because these are the type of incidents where we do worry about retaliation.” Police said the group of about 10 men, all in their early 20s, were about to start filming when someone got out of a black car and began firing approximately 10 shots. Four other victims (two of which are also in critical condition) were reportedly shot in the finger, right leg and chest, leg, and neck and back. We are keeping these young men in our prayers.
