I was recently talking to a Sports Reporter, who was more of a dude in a dive bar, but for someone like me, who doesn’t like sports, but sometimes ends up in bars when sports are on TV, he seemed like an expert. Not to mention, we live in an era where no one is an expert, even the experts. Everything is fake news, people reporting hate crimes that aren’t even hate crimes but actual viral stunts, because trolling the media is just that easy and always hilarious…so I’ll take this weird drunk’s word for it, even though he smelled like piss.. Well, he went on to tell me that hometown hottie, who isn’t that hot….is not that great at Tennis, she’s just a lot of hype, especially locally, and more excited by her social media fame than actually delivering a solid serve. Apparently, not one element of her game is exceptional…she’s a decent all round player…good to teach tennis at a resort…but never going to make it anywhere in tennis…despite the sponsorships…because she’s more into being a social media slut…as all girls are…why work hard, when you can get paid to be useless and half naked…it’s an ego thing I guess and it can be lucrative…I also know french Canadians and how much they love being strippers…so I get it…but it’s unfortunate that she’s not hotter…even when fit and half naked…it’s like “whatever”…but it’s happening the move from athlete to influencer before our vary eyes…we are so lucky to be a part of this!! Aren’t we. TO SEE THE REST OF THE PICS CLICK HERE The post Eugenie Bouchard Bikini Sunscreen Rub Down in Miami of the Day appeared first on DrunkenStepFather.com .
Like many TV aficionados, you may have tried to wash away the bad taste of a Green Book victory at the Oscars by checking in with another project that had Mahershala Ali partnering up with an ornery white guy. We’re talking, of course, about True Detective , which wrapped it’s predictably dour, curiously overstuffed third season on Sunday night. But before a bunch of mustachioed guys could grumble about the real killer and what it all means, man , HBO presented one of its “here’s why you continue to pay 15 bucks a month” trailer montages. The segment filled viewers in on what’s to come in the months ahead — the long-awaited Deadwood movie, the return of Big Little Lies , new seasons of Barry, Veep , and Succession … Oh, and the final episodes of that show with the Wall and the crumbling society intent on ignoring growing threats to its very existence. Game of Thrones Season 8 Preview Teaser No, CNN’s not canceling Anderson Cooper. We’re talking about Game of Thrones , the final episodes of which are set to begin airing on April 14. Now, at this point, pretty much everyone’s got their theories about the ending of Game of Thrones , but that’s not stopping HBO and the show’s producers from playing it close to the vest. The new teaser gives away next to nothing — but that’s not stopping fans from dissecting this latest morsel in search of hidden meaning. We’re given little more than a shot of some soaring dragons, followed by a close-up of Arya smiling at … something. The way the trailer is cut, it appears that she’s smiling up at the dragons, but that could be misleading. Of course, it would make sense that Arya would be pleased by a fire-breathing symbol of the Khaleesi-Jon Snow alliance, and it’s opposition to Cersei and the rest of the baddies from King’s Landing. And it’s worth noting that Arya’s journey has been more abstract than those of the other main characters. In other words, homegirl has seen some sh-t, and she’s closely acquainted with the dark side of Westeros. So maybe her optimistic reaction is a sign that the dragons are being deployed to address the growing White Walker issue. Or maybe we’re just reading way too much into three seconds of footage and a semi-smile. Whatever the case, you can be sure we’ll be front and center when our questions finally start getting answered on April 14! View Slideshow: Game of Thrones: ALL the Season 7 Photos!

Alfonso Cuarón won Best Director for Roma and Rami Malek won Best Actor for his portrayal as Freddie Mercury in Bohemian Rhapsody . But, there was a LOT of black history made at the ceremony, including SEVEN Oscar winners. Here’s a full list of everyone who made a little black history. Spike Lee Lee, after 30+ years in filmmaking won his first Oscar for best adapted screenplay for BlackKklansmen . “Do not start that motherf*cking clock!” Spike said before he began his speech. A flex, because he deserved it. More black winners after the jump.
A n African-American STEM pioneer was finally honored for breaking barriers in the realm of science. Saint Elmo Brady —the first Black man to receive a doctorate degree in chemistry—had a National Historical Chemical Landmark dedicated to him by the American Chemical Society, the Journal for Blacks in Higher Education reported. Dr. Saint Elmo Brady, 1st African American to Earn Ph.D. in Chemistry, Honored With a National Historic Chemical Landmark https://t.co/qTCa7791ik pic.twitter.com/F3rlOvPAsk — Good Black News (@goodblacknews) February 18, 2019 The landmark was added to the University of Illinois campus where Brady received his degree 103 years ago, the news outlet writes. Leaders at the American Chemical Society believe it’s crucial that Brady’s journey and contributions to STEM don’t go unsung. The organization’s 2018 President Peter K. Dorhout believes that Brady’s story will serve as inspiration for the next generation of Black STEM leaders. “This landmark designation recognizes the outstanding accomplishments and leadership impact that Dr. Brady has had on the chemical profession,” said Dorhout in a statement, according to the news outlet. “I am proud to be an alumnus of the university that was part of his legacy — dreaming, designing and executing the creation of four outstanding and impactful chemistry programs that have each worked to ensure access to higher education and the chemical professions for so many young African-American men and women over the last century.” There was a designation ceremony that was held on February 5. A Louisville native, Dr. Brady received his bachelor’s degree in 1908 from Fisk University. Four years after graduating, he went on to pursue his Ph.D. from the University of Illinois. Throughout his career, he held teaching roles at Tuskegee University, Tougaloo College, Howard University, and Fisk University. He chaired the chemistry departments at his alma mater Fisk and at Howard University as well. The University of Illinois isn’t the only institution that will receive a plaque dedicated to Dr. Brady. Other universities and colleges that he left a mark on will as well; including Fisk University, Tuskegee University, Howard University, and Tougaloo College.

Tyga flew into a violent rage Saturday night outside Floyd Mayweather’s birthday party. But, thankfully cooler heads prevailed before anything truly popped off. According to TMZ , T-Raw started the night inside of the Sunset Room in Hollywood, celebrating Floyd’s 42nd birthday, when someone in the crowd go into it with the rapper.

Guards grabbed the rapper by his neck–yanking him out of the club onto the street. That’s when it escalated, resulting in Tyga reaching for his security guard’s gun. Thankfully, the gun never left the guard’s holster. Tyga and his crew eventually left the club. [ione_media_gallery src=”https://92q.com” id=”3903492″ overlay=”true”]
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry made one of their final international stops before settling down for parenthood in the very near future. On Sunday, the Royal Couple traveled to the Atlas Mountains in Morocco to visit a boarding school for girls. And, during the trip, the polarizing Duchess of Sussex received a special henna tattoo to mark her seven months of pregnancy. (Yes, seven months! Can you believe it? The baby really is coming soon, folks!) The expecting couple kept very close to each other during their visit, holding hands and sharing a multitude of sweet moments during their busy engagement. At one point, Meghan gently rested her head on Harry’s shoulder and he flashed a big smile. At another point, she proudly showed off her temporary new ink, as you can see here: The tattoo has been making headlines across the Internet today, as it extends from Meghan’s wrist all the way up her pointer finger. From our brief research, it doesn’t appear that the tattoo design is of anything in particular, but simply having it penned on to her skin was a welcoming gesture on Markle’ss part. It showed how accepting she is of other cultures. Neither Markle – who was recently celebrated by her close famous friends in New York – nor Harry spoke to the press during this outing, but details have been made public nonetheless. In addition to taking part in the aforementioned Henna ceremony, the superstars visited the Education for All Boarding House in the Atlas Mountains. This boarding house allows girls from rural areas to reside closer to their school, thereby helping to further and accelerate their education. According to the organization’s website, up to 83 percent of women in Morocco are illiterate. It’s a very serious issue. Moreover, many have limited access to secondary schools and/or can’t afford transport to school. Markle and Harry made a point to visit with the students here and to impart as much wisdom as they could. But that wasn’t all. In addition, the gorgeous Highnesses went to the Lycée Collegial Le Grand Atlas, where they observed students practicing English. The duo also spoke to a few of the teachers and watched students partake in a soccer game. Pretty great all around, huh? Perhaps we ought to focus more on these sort of humanitarian efforts… instead of one Markle’s awful and very selfish family .

S erena Williams’ influence spans past the sports world. She’s making a name for herself in the fashion industry as well. Last year Williams launched her own clothing line and this year she’s continuing to make power moves in fashion. According to CNBC , Williams has been appointed to join Poshmark’s board of directors. . @serenawilliams Joins @Poshmarkapp 's Board of Directors https://t.co/oC2DD3dE23 — Black Enterprise (@blackenterprise) February 22, 2019 Poshmark is an online platform created for people across the country to sell their new and used clothing, the news outlet writes. It was founded by Manish Chandra , Tracy Sun , Gautam Golwala , and Chetan Pungaliya in 2011. The marketplace sellers collectively garnered $1 billion since the company was founded. The company is valued at nearly $600 million. Chandra—who serves as the company’s CEO—says that he believes Williams can take the brand to the next level. “What triggered my initial interest [in Williams], is there are very few people who have that focus on excellence. What we are trying to build is a very diverse, independent board, people who can guide us to the next level of growth,” said Chandra in a statement. “Seeing she had the right experience, and the passion for fashion, that’s the way we looked at it.” He also added that the platform was developed by a team of strong women like Williams. The tennis star is beyond excited to join the Poshmark team. She said she’s been shopping on the platform for years. “I’m really excited to join Poshmark because it really speaks to my core values,” said Williams in a statement, according to Ad Week . “They really believe in so many different aspects of my life that I am not only living but I’m also preaching.” Williams is using Poshmark as an avenue for social good. She recently built her own closet on the platform and the proceeds from purchased items will go to the Yetunde Price Resource Center; an organization that she founded in memory of her sister who was fatally shot in Compton in 2003. The organization provides resources and programs for victims of direct or indirect senseless violence.

Source: Adene Sanchez / Getty Black History Month has been a lot. We need a do over…but in the meantime, these were some of the craziest moments and pettiest reactions of the month so far. To kick things off, 21 Savage was arrested by ICE after he spoke out against some of their practices in his song “A Lot.” Obviously, we all wanted to see 21 safe and free to stay in the United States with his family—but when the nation found out that the most ATL person we’ve ever known was actually born in London, pettiness about him possibly having a British accent and more ensued. Click here to see who folks say “snitched.” Liam Neeson randomly admitted to wanting to kill a Black man…any Black man…in order to get revenge for a friend who claimed she was rape by a Black guy. He admitted to actively looking for Black men, hoping for some sort of an altercation…and while some folks, gave him props for admitting to his “past” racism, most didn’t let him off that easily and/or had petty jokes for days. Since we not fucking with Liam Neeson anymore put me in the next Taken ima find Jay Z 92 bricks. — Vince Staples (@vincestaples) February 11, 2019 I'm a bit late. All the good Liam Neeson jokes are…Taken. — Aatif Nawaz (@AatifNawaz) February 6, 2019 On another note, is it just us or has it been feeling more like blackface month? Gucci, Moncler, AND Prada were all blasted for obviously racist designs that were all blatantly offensive. Then, to top it off, Burberry had a model wear a “noose hoodie” while walking the runway for London Fashion Week. While many of us instantly decided these designers were #canceled, Floyd Mayweather—in all his ignorance and pettiness—decided to throw on head-to-toe Gucci , and hit Instagram to say “People boycott for trend but turn around and still shop at H&M and watch the NFL.” 50 Cent made fun of his reading ability once more and Twitter had a blast with it all. 50 Cent has responded to Floyd Mayweather’s comments pic.twitter.com/PBjUQeJGTw — Quake (@QuakeGW) February 15, 2019 People also thought it was pretty interesting that Nicki Minaj dropped her own remix to Blueface’s viral hit “Thotiana,” even though the West Coast rapper’s remix with Cardi B was on its way . Now that Cardi’s version has arrived, the debate on who’s is better has been never-ending. But overall it seems like the internet is fed up with Nicki’s…creative choices. I love this Thotiana Remix, Cardi B verse is heat on it, Blueface got bodied lmao. Nicki Minaj take notes, you could freestyle without having to rhyme IANA with IANA. — Hip-hop bigger than any artist (@TopHipHopPolls) February 17, 2019 On February 10, Will Smith was the butt of some hilarious jokes after unveiling his genie look in the upcoming live-action adaptation of Disney’s Aladdin . Reassuring petty fans that he would, in fact, be blue he posted a sneak peek from the movie—but people were highly dissatisfied with the end result. “Should he look like the genie or like Will Smith?” “Yes.” pic.twitter.com/54sRUKXiRB — American Antony Santos (@TheMikeTre) February 11, 2019 The Grammys also went down on February 10. Due to being locked up by ICE, 21 Savage wasn’t able to hit the stage for his scheduled performance with Post Malone…so fans were eager to see if Post would at least shout 21 out—but nope. In fact, Childish Gambino producer Ludwig Goransson was the only person to shout 21 out the entire night. This ain’t a petty tweet, it’s simply facts. Ludwig Goransson gives the night's only real 21 Savage shoutout 3 and a half hours into the show. — Craig Bro Dude (@CraigSJ) February 11, 2019 But there was more…Cardi B and Offset confirmed their obvious reunion… but folks are kind of tired of Offset , Kylie Jenner didn’t look her best and people pointed it out all night, Anita Baker didn’t seem pleased with the Aretha Franklin tribute, and for some reason Jennifer Lopez did the Motown tribute…which literally confused everyone. Also Cardi winning a Grammy had everyone on their pettiest behavior (including, BET unfortunately). …..

After suggesting that Mo’Nique’s integrity was not as important as getting a check and more, Harvey was accused of being a sellout and dragged to Black Twitter hell by the internet. mo'nique: i have integri– steve harvey: if i crumble, my children crumble, my grandchildren crumble, blueberry crumble, rumble in the jungle, bitch be humble, i am a CLOWN — .

When reports surfaced, Khloe and the crew pettily confirmed them on social media and fans went in on the ever so trifling Jordyn and dirty dog Tristan. *source* from Tristan Thompson's party: pic.twitter.com/bMag6zKqMt — Jenn Wick (@Jennykay5real) February 20, 2019 While sitting down for a town hall symposium for the My Brother’s Keeper program, Barack Obama and Stephen Curry gave out some great advice to the young men in attendance. Specifically, Obama talked about having confidence and not using twerking women and gold chains to front. “If you are very confident about your sexuality, you don’t have to have eight women around you twerkin’,” he hilariously said. “You seem stressed that you’ve gotta be acting that way. I’ve got one woman that I’m very happy with.” Shout out to Mrs. O. and to be clear, there is no tweet to see here people…”You seem stressed” is Obama at his pettiest and we love it. To close thing out, we’ve also gathered your usual, everyday pettiness happening on social media…like folks making fun of single people, Soulja Boy correcting TMZ titles that claimed he was “dating” Blac Chyna, people laughing at Kim K.’s cluelessness , and more.

Before she got booted out of the house earlier this month, Dina Lohan was one of the stars of the current season of Celebrity Big Brother . And in her relatively short time on the show, Lindsay’s mom made quite an impression. This was largely a result of Dina making some pretty bonkers comments about her relationship — which at the time appeared to be completely imaginary. In conversation with her housemates, Dina revealed that she was planning to get married to a man she had never met. Not only that, in the five years that the couple had been “dating” at the time, Dina said she had never once Skyped of FaceTimed with the guy. So it’s not hard to see why many jumped to the conclusion that Dina is either lying, out of her mind, or being played for a fool. On Twitter, even Lindsay begged her mom to stop with the “crazy catfish” talk . The master angler himself, Nev Schulman, took to Instagram to suggest that Dina allow him to help her hunt this guy down. All-in-all the whole situation seemed about as believable as your eighth-grade buddy whose model girlfriend went to a private school in Canada. But today, the story took a surprising turn. Radar Online has tracked down Dina’s beau , Jesse Nadler, and not only does he exist — he totally wants to marry her. “I am going to marry the girl,” says the shockingly extant Nadler. “I know it’s crazy because we haven’t met. But we have amazing chemistry,” he adds. “We get on the phone and talk about everything under the moon. She’s talked to my mother, my niece.” In a way, we guess it makes sense that Nadler proposed without ever having met Dina. Marrying into the Lohan clan is like joining ISIS — it’s something you need to commit to online before you witness the savagery of the situation and lose your nerve. “Even though we haven’t been physically in the same room, it’s like we are two kids,” Nadler tells Radar. “We talk about big things, little things, what we had for dinner, breakfast, we just talk. There’s no way that’s going to change. “You know when you talk to someone on the phone, like you feel like you know them?” Nadler concludes by being all like, no really, I exist: “I’m not a catfish and fake guy who steals photos,” he says. “I didn’t like the term ‘catfish.’ Anyone who cons people, who creates false personas and photos rubs me the wrong way and really upsets me. “I’m a real guy. And Dina is happy that people don’t think she got catfished. That’s embarrassing.” Sadly, Nadler and Dina still haven’t met — but they recently took a major step forward in their romance: “We have been FaceTiming three to five times a day,” Jesse says. “We’ve been talking like crazy!” Jeez, get a room, you two!
