Jay Z Rips Into The Mayor Of Philadelphia For Moving ‘Made In America’ And He Responds

Continue reading here:

J ay Z ‘s Made In America is one of the most popular music festivals in the country. However, this year will be its last at the Benjamin Franklin Parkway in Philadelphia, because the mayor pulled the plug on the location, claiming it was too expensive, even though Roc Nation covered approximately half the costs. However, Jay Z is not happy and wrote a biting piece in The Philadelphia Inquirer , ripping into Mayor Jim Kenney , who quickly responded. See Also: Papa John’s CEO Resigns After Condemning NFL Anthem Protests Jay accused the mayor of evicting the event “through a media outlet, without a sit-down meeting, notice, dialogue, or proper communication.” He said, “It signifies zero appreciation for what Made In America has built alongside the phenomenal citizens of this city. In fact, this administration immediately greeted us with a legal letter trying to stop the 2018 event.” The festival was also a huge boost to Philadelphia’s economy, according to Jay, “Since 2012, Made in America, one of the only minority-owned festivals, has had a positive $102.8 million economic impact to Philadelphia, and the festival has paid $3.4 million in rent to the city. Made in America employs more than 1,000 Philadelphians each day and 85 percent of our partners are Philadelphia-based companies.” Jay also insinuated that race was a factor, “We consider this stance a failure on the mayor’s part. Is this an accurate representation of how he and his administration treat partners that economically benefit his city? Do they regularly reject minority-owned businesses that want to continue to thrive and grow alongside his city’s people?” Mayor Kenney responded via a statement , “The City of Philadelphia supports the  Made in America  festival and is greatly appreciative of all that it has done for Philadelphia. We are committed to its continued success and thank them for their partnership. We hope to be able to resolve what has been an unfortunate misunderstanding.  We are working with Roc Nation and Live Nation to resolve this issue and we are committed to continuing our partnership with the Made in America festival.” No word on where else Made in America will take place but judging from the passive statement above from the mayor, it might just stay at the Benjamin Franklin Parkway in Philadelphia.

Kourtney Kardashian to Younes Bendjima: Forget Your Career! Focus on ME!

Younes Bendjima may enjoy hot cougar sex with Kourtney Kardashian , but the boy-toy turned boyfriend is apparently growing a little restless under the famous MILF. Under her shadow , we mean. A report says that Younes is trying to make a name for himself on his own terms — without Kourtney. A source tells RadarOnline that Younes Bendjima is eager to prove himself as a model without just riding her coattails. “Younes was modeling before he met Kourtney,” the insider mentions. That is absolutely true. Like her ex, Scott Disick, Kourtney seems to have a thing for young, hot models. In her case, just one in particular. The source absolutely acknowledges: “and being her boyfriend has definitely given him a bigger star status.” Younes is well aware of that. But it sounds like it’s not quite enough for him. “He’s had a lot of offers rolling in because of that,” the insider states. That’s no surprise. He’s practically a household name — at least, in homes where people are familiar with the intricate workings of the Kardashian clan. Younes sees these offers, the source says, “and wants to use this time to turn his dream of becoming a male supermodel into reality.” This time, we take it, refers to his youth. Modeling is not one of those careers that gets easier over time. He’s not going to be a hot young thing forever, unfortunately. He wants to have his romance while also getting serious about his career. Sadly, it sounds like Kourtney is less than enthusiastic about this. “Kourtney would rather he focused on being with her,” the insider reports. On the one hand, that sounds selfish. No one should be asked to choose between love and their career. On the other hand, you can imagine how Kourtney might feel. She gave years to Scott, only for him to move on to younger pastures. She can’t want history to repeat itself. Besides, Kourtney is said to feel like Younes already has enough of a boost. The source says: “She thinks he should be grateful to her for all the attention and Instagram followers he’s getting.” But it sounds like the boy-toy game, even though their romance is real, has gotten old. “Younes has made it clear that he’s tired of being Kourtney’s glorified escort,” the insider reveals. He must feel like a prized show dog at times, with Kourtney flaunting him and his hot body on social media. Younes is ready for change, the source says, “and he wants to focus on turning himself into a huge star.” She’s a Kardashian. She — and especially a few of her sisters and definitely her mom — could make Younes’ career dreams happen. Younes doesn’t sound like he’ll be easily deterred in his pursuit of his supermodeling dreams. The insider says that he’s going to try to launch his career to the next level — and he’ll do it “no matter what she thinks.” But hopefully he’ll do it with her blessing — and the full support of her, her brand, and her very influential family. As for Kourtney’s worries … well, she has no need to be insecure. Maxim may think that Sofia Richie is hotter than Kourtney , but Younes has to know her value — and hotness — better than just about anyone.

Justin Bieber to Hailey Baldwin: I Never Want to Hear the Name Shawn Mendes Again!

As you’ve likely heard by now, Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin got engaged  last week after just over a month of dating. At first, it seemed impossible, but Bieber and Baldwin have confirmed the news  by posting a series of loving tributes to one another on social media. Of course, it’s not all sunshine and unicorns in Jusley’s world these days. When a high-profile couple gets engaged after short a brief courtship, things can get messy. One of the biggest problems, of course, is the fact that both parties are likely to have very recent exes. And the more recent an ex, the more likely they are to be a source of drama. Which may be why Justin is taking no chances.  According to Life & Style , Bieber has asked Baldwin to delete all traces of her ex-boyfriend Shawn Mendes from her social media accounts. “Shawn is happy for Hailey and Justin and has said that he loves them both, but Justin isn’t taking any chances,” a source tells the tabloid. “Justin wants to take his relationship with Hailey to the next level, but he can’t do that until he feels confident she isn’t pining for someone else.” Seems like he already took care of getting to the next level by popping the question, but we guess the Biebs likes to be extremely thorough. “Erasing every trace of Shawn on her social media was a way for Hailey to prove her loyalty,” the insider added. “And she had no problem pressing delete.” Rumors about Bieber “forcing” Baldwin to delete Mendes  from her life have been circulating for weeks. In a twist that no one saw coming, it seems that those reports are accurate, and Justin has absolutely no shame about issuing the demand. As for that other famous in this scenario, sources say Selena Gomez is glad to be rid of Justin for good. She apparently harbors no ill will toward Baldwin, but instead feels sympathy for the 21-year-old model. If the Jelena relationship is any indication, Gomez is right to feel bad for Hailey. The girl may be in for quite a wild ride. View Slideshow: Justin Bieber: All His Sexual Conquests, RANKED!

Fries & Worship: Chick-Fil-A Turns Into Church Thanks To This Flash Mob

See original here:

Source: Jeff Greenberg / Getty Some 60 professional a cappella gospel singers ushered in the spirit at a Chick-fil-A recently and went viral in the process. According to AJC , the occasion went down in Nashville, Tennessee where singers were gathering for a weeklong Worship Leader Institute. Gospel singers from around the world gradually joined in a flash mob at Chick-fil-A where they sung Hezekiah Walker s “Every Praise.” A clip of the performance was posted on Facebook by Chris Armstead and now it has over 8 million views. “I mean, I was shocked in the first couple of hours when it started to get hundreds of thousands,” Armstead said. It seems something like this could only go down at a Chick-fil-A. In any other restaurant — say Wendy’s — folks might’ve just wanted to finish their Frosty in peace. But Chick-fil-A is known for their pro-Christian beliefs . So if anyone had a problem, they would’ve had to take it up with the big one upstairs…and I’m not talking about the manager.   This isn’t the first time Armstead has recorded a flash mob at the restaurant either, but this is the first one that has gotten views in the millions. Check out the show for yourself below!

Jenelle Evans: My Son Would NEVER Call Me a Piece of S–t If He Actually Knew Me!

If you watched Teen Mom 2 this week, then you know what a roller coaster ride of an episode it was. We got to see Chelsea Houska do a sweet little gender reveal for her husband, Cole DeBoer, which was adorable and wonderful and precious. But then we saw Leah Messer discuss her daughter’s increasing health problems , which, as always, was positively heartbreaking. Briana DeJesus was dealing with her breakup with Javi Marroquin , which was pretty whatever, but the best part of her segments was her sister, Brittany, comforting her while on painkillers after a wisdom tooth removal. Kailyn Lowry’s segments dealt with Javi too, but we also got to see Isaac’s birthday — so cute! And then there’s Jenelle Evans. In the previous episode we’d learned that David Eason had just been fired , so of course in this week’s show, Jenelle explained that he’d just been refusing to film for his own personal reasons. In another scene, she gave us a good example of her lack of parenting skills when she explained to her mother Barbara that she hadn’t given Jace his medication because he was “fine,” because that’s how medicine works. She also didn’t return the medication she didn’t give him to Barb. Barbara asked Jenelle out to lunch, but Jenelle shut her down because she was too busy, and then we saw Jace and Barb back at home. He told her that Jenelle didn’t allow him to call her, which is awful, and then he told her that the whole family had gone out on the boat for a big, fun day. Well, the whole family minus Kaiser, who they stuck in daycare. Barbara was upset at that news, because it doesn’t sound fair to exclude poor Kaiser when they actually do something fun. She said that it broke her heart. And then Jace actually said “Mommy and David are pieces of sh-t.” Barbara looked shocked and asked him what he’d said, so he repeated himself, and he spit on the ground for good measure. She didn’t say anything, because what can you say after something like that? Then the episode ended. A lot of Teen Mom 2 fans had a lot of feelings about the moment — most were as shocked as Barb was. Some thought that he was repeating something he’d heard from her, but others thought that the phrasing sounded something more like David would say, particularly with the spitting on the ground for emphasis. Regardless, most people agreed that it really did seem like he was fully aware of what he was saying, and that he meant it. Since it was the last scene of the episode, and since the next episode obviously hasn’t aired yet, we don’t know how Barbara ended up dealing with what Jace said, or if Jenelle heard about it before watching the episode. But since Jenelle is Jenelle, she’s discussing the issue on Twitter in the dumbest manner possible. Early this morning, she tweeted “If Jace lived with me he wouldn’t have ever spoke those words about ANYONE.” “Thought me and my mom were actually building our relationship lately and now it’s two steps back.” There are approximately a million things wrong with this one short tweet, but let’s try to break it down anyway, all right? For one, why is she blaming her mother for this? Sure, Jace may have heard the sentiment from her originally, but it’s not like she forced the kid to say it. And since this was filmed several months ago, it shouldn’t have an impact on any progress their relationship is making now. Also, why on earth does she think that anyone would actually believe that Jace wouldn’t talk like this if he lived with her? We’ve seen Jenelle and David both be absolutely horrible to all kinds of people — David’s called Kaiser a “screaming little bitch,” he’s called Dr. Drew a “f-g,” and it’s impossible to keep up with all the names he’s called Nathan Griffith. Throughout the years we’ve seen Jenelle say awful things about Barbara in front of Jace, too. If Jace lived with Jenelle and David, he’d almost certainly being saying worse about several people. And let’s be real, it’s not like Jace was wrong in his original statement, anyway. Does she forget that she’s been on a reality show for the better part of a decade and that lots of people are familiar with her life and her personality? Because anyone who’s ever seen like ten minutes of her footage would be able to tell you that her statement on this subject is absolute nonsense, and it’s a little embarrassing that she’s trying to act like she could raise Jace better than Barbara is. Jenelle, just … stop, girl. Just stop for a little bit. View Slideshow: Jenelle Evans’ Son Says What We’re All Thinking: Mom, You’re a Real Piece of S–t!
