Getty Image OJ Simpson “Hypothetically” Is A Murderer An old archived Fox interview from the early 2000’s will be aired next week where OJ Simpson is seen “hypothetically” explaining in the third person how he would have murdered his ex-wife Nicole Murphy in 1994. The interview was done on a promo tour for his book “If I Did It:Confessions of a Killer.”” but due to the controversy and negative media backlash it was shelved. O.J. is speaking about an unnamed man that was with him on the night of the murder. Simpson reportedly said that he went to Nicole’s house to “scare the sh*t out of her,” and he wore a hat and gloves to amp up the scare factor. He then saw Ron Goldman, a waiter from the restaurant Nicole had just eaten at, return a pair of sunglasses that her mother left at the eatery. The site of Ron and Nicole together sent O.J. into a rage, and he blacked out only to come to with blood all over himself.

Everyone from Tyler the Creator to Chance the Rapper has performed there so that their audience can see them in a different light. Common ‘s Tiny Desk performance with his new group August Greene definitely turned heads with guest performance from Brandy and Andra Day . However, the featured performer who’s been getting the most buzz across the Internet is Washington D.C. native Maimouna Youssef aka Mumu Fresh. The singer and rapper dropped some monstrous bars in just a few minutes, so much so that it got the attention of The Roots drummer Questlove . Now folks across social media are celebrating this conscious spitter.

Though the newly single Justin Theroux broke his Instagram silence to message Selena, Selena’s giving a shout-out to a very different Justin. Justin Bieber, of course. Thursday was his birthday. Selena is using her legendary Instagram clout to wish her on-again boyfriend a happy birthday … somewhat cryptically. Yes, Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber are really back together , despite the hopes of many fans and, apparently, all of Selena’s family that she not repeat past mistakes. But the world is meant to believe that Justin Bieber has totally transformed. That he no longer suffers from alleged substance abuse and addiction that his own management worried would claim his life. That he’ll no longer partake in the terrible, juvenile, and often illegal behavior for which he was so infamous just a few years ago. Apparently, Justin Bieber is way more into his religion these days. Which reportedly has led Selena to feel that God has blessed their reunion . And now, Selena has posted this. That polaroid which is affixed to Selena’s beautiful forehead in this photo is a picture of the Biebs. In case fans somehow missed it, though, Selena Gomez posted this caption. “March 1, 1994 someone I know that happens to be super cool was born. Boom.” Justin Bieber was, of course, born on that date. He is now 24 years old and getting yet another chance at happiness with one of the most talented and exceptional human beings on the planet. We hope that he counted his blessings. And we can’t imagine what he wished for when he blew out his candles — what more could he ask for? Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber recently celebrated Justin’s once-deadbeat father’s wedding with him in Jamaica. Not only were the two practically joined at the hip for this happy occasion, they also spent time joined at the lips. “They were kissing and hugging throughout the morning,” E ! reports about Jelena’s tropical makeout . The details make it all sound very romantic. “He rubbed sunscreen all over her back, and they enjoyed the pool and being outside…” What matters isn’t what fans think of Justin or their reunion, but how Selena feels about all of this. “They looked extremely happy.” Awww, good for them! As for those who accuse Selena of repeating past mistakes, well, E! ‘s insider claims that this is something else. “Everything is so different this time around.” Well, they’ve both lived their lives and grown as individuals since they last broke up. “This time around, Justin is behaving like a gentlemen and showing how much he cares about her.” That’s certainly very nice to hear. We hope that it lasts. “He’s is a lot more open about his feelings towards Selena, which has been a big sign of him maturing.” Awwww! Very different from the guy who couldn’t express his affections unless he was drunk whom Selena describes in her song, “Sober.” Obviously, the renewed closeness of this couple has led to rumors. Some have claimed that Selena Gomez is pregnant with Justin Bieber’s baby — she is not. In the light of Selena’s ongoing struggle with Lupus, a devastating autoimmune disorder that caused her to get a kidney transplant last June and which continues to threaten her life, those rumors are almost cruel. But, bittersweetness aside, this was a wholesome post by Selena. We hope that she and the Biebs enjoyed his 24th birthday.

It is about to be on between Khloe Kardashian and Kourtney Kardashian. In the following sneak peek from Sunday's season finale of Keeping Up with the Kardashian, Khloe, Kourtney and Kim Kardashian are on a boat, on their way to Alcatraz. But the soon-to-be mother of one isn't exactly enjoying herself because Kourtney is on the phone, clearly distracted by someone (or some one ) from this cool family experience. “What the f-ck are you here for?” Khloe asks her sister as soon as she hangs up, adding: “Don’t chime in if you’re not going to get off your f-cking phone call all the time. You’re like, a waste of space in my meter right now.” Yikes. A bit harsh of a reaction to someone who was simply chatting on the phone? Try telling that to a pregnant woman's hormones. “You’re annoying as f-ck now when we’re together,” Khloe continues, on a rather intense roll. “This is what you do. You’re on your phone the whole time. You’re just not present!” Taken aback by this reply, Kourtney stammers that she was only on the call for 10 minutes and that her sister needs to take a chill pill. But this reasoning does nothing to calm Khloe down. “We’re only here once,” she snaps, continuing: “When are we ever going to go back to Alcatraz? You know what? Actually, I’m not doing this today. I’m not doing this today, because last time in Costa Rica, I looked crazy because I’m always the one complaining to get you guys to have fun. “I’m not going to be crazy, okay? You’ll be the f-cking bitch that you need to be.” Whoa there! This just turned very ugly very fast. “Good,” Kourtney says in response. That isn't all she says, however. “F-ck you, you f-cking whore,” she retorts, adding: “Pregnant whore!” It's true: Khloe is pregnant and we're about to learn the gender of her baby . But a whore?!? Did Kourtney just cross a line? Click PLAY to see how this argument comes to a surprising end:

Migos & Lil Yachty- “Solitaire” E arlier this month, Quavo revealed that Migos, Gucci Mane, and Lil Yachty would be working on a joint project as The Glacier Boyz. While details on the effort remain to be seen, a collaboration has finally been released in the form of “Solitaire.” The track, which doesn’t feature Offset, includes verses from Guwop, Quavo, Takeoff, and Boat, the latter going against the title in his verse. “Bitch I don’t play no solitaire,” he raps. “I’m a fuckin’ millionaire.” Huncho brings the group name up in his verse. “Glacier Boy, it’s a global warmin’,” he raps. “Everybody wanna come join in.” Later, East Atlanta Santa does the same: “Glacier Boy, amazin’ shit, your jeweler ain’t up on this / Crazy diamond bracelet, I’m jealous of my own wrist.” “Solitaire” is likely a single off Gucci Mane’s forthcoming album The Evil Genius , which follows last year’s El Gato: The Human Glacier . No word yet on when The Glacier Boyz will release their highly-anticipated group project. DJ Khaled feat. Beyoncé, JAY-Z, & Future — “Top Off” D J Khaled is shining with the keys, once again. The multi-media mogul has unleashed “Top Off,” the lead single from his newly-announced album , Father of Asahd . The high-powered track is backed by Khaled and Joe Zarillo on the boards, as well as Pluto on the hook. “I took the top off the Maybach,” he raps, before Hov adds: “I chopped the top off.” Following reported threats from George Zimmerman, Jigga delivers a strong response. “Georgie Porgie sinnin’ and sendin’ me threats / Save your breath, you couldn’t beat a flight of steps,” he rhymes. “Try that shit with a grown man I’ll kill that fuckboy with my own hand and hop back in the coupe.” Queen Bey and Hovito are both screaming out “Free Meek” on the track, which finds another “world, stop” moment from Yoncé. “I break the internet,” she brags. “Top two and I ain’t number two.” This star-studded grouping isn’t new for Khaled. The just-released heater follows JAY-Z and Beyoncé’s “Shining” off last year’s Grateful and Hov and Future’s “I Got the Keys” from 2016’s Major Key . Prior to releasing the track, Khaled had the game abuzz with a trailer for the single. He also announced his 11th album Father of Asahd , inspired by his one-year-old son. Take the “Top Off” below. Tory Lanez — Memories Don’t Die T ory Lanez goes down Memory Lane. Following up on his 2016 debut I Told You , the Toronto-based rapper unleashes his sophomore LP, Memories Don’t Die . Several stars join in on the fun to help Swavey relive his memories over the course of 18 tracks, including Future (“Real Thing”), Mansa (“48 Floors”), NAV (“Dance for Me”), 50 Cent (“Pieces”), Wiz Khalifa (“Hillside”), Fabolous, Paloma Ford, and Davo (“Connection”). The album was reportedly inspired by a life-changing summer that took place when Tory was a teenager. It was also influenced by a range of emotions. “I want to talk about what’s deep. I want to talk about what means something to me,” he told Revolt . “I want to talk about the stuff that made me cry. I want to talk about the stuff that made me angry.” Take a stroll down Memory Lane with Tory Lanez below. Royce da 5’9” feat. J. Cole — “Boblo Boat” R oyce da 5’9” and J. Cole set sail on “Boblo Boat,” a reflective anthem about simpler times filled with intricate lyrics. Over soulful instrumentation, Nickle Nine raps about “family trips” to Boblo Island Amusement Park near Detroit, Mich. He recalls vivid details, like wooden roller coasters, crack deals, and glass in the swimming pool. “I came across my identity on the Boblo boat,” he raps. “That’s where I lost my virginity, no condom though.” Cole, who grew up in North Carolina, acknowledges that he didn’t have a Boblo Island, but manages to think back to his own youthful days while possibly revealing that he has a son. “I made it out unscathed and now I sunbathe with my son in Tanzanian sun rays thinkin’ ’bout them days.” Where this song will land remains to be seen. Many speculate that this could be the lead single off Royce’s forthcoming solo album The Book of Ryan . Meanwhile, PRhyme 2 , his second collab project with DJ Premier, is due March 16. Tech N9ne — Planet T ech N9ne blasts off into space for his latest album, Planet . The independent hip-hop titan adds to his storied discography with another action-packed LP, delivering 19 tracks of tongue twisting dexterity and introspective storytelling. The project features an array of artists ranging from Machine Gun Kelly and Snow Tha Product to Krizz Kaliko and Mackenzie Nicole. It’s based on a trip from Earth to Planet Pyune (Peaceful Youth Unit Neutralizing Earth). “Your journey from Earth to Planet Pyune has been successful,” he says to kick start the project. Recently, the Kansas City spitter spoke with Billboard about why he wanted to create his own world. “People are coming out the woodworks because they feel like the leader is behind bullshit,” he said. “No girl deserves to be ran over by somebody who thinks they shouldn’t be marching in the street. No unarmed man should be gunned down…This planet needs neutralizing.”

Dame Dash And Kanye West Link Up Dame and ‘Ye are back like the Roc-A-Fella days …sort of. As you may recall, Dame recently released a years-old gangster flick he co-produced with Kanye West. The two hadn’t really been seen linking up much in recent years, even with the film’s release on the horizon. But all that changed on Tuesday when Dame cornered met with ‘Ye and captured the moment for the ‘Gram. He seemed to have a lot of thoughts about it…while ‘Ye kept his own musings on their linkup to himself. As a matter of fact, he didn’t part his lips one time, or manage to look particularly interested in being on camera. When honorable people stick together history will always get made @honorupmovie #staytuned #honorup Being honorable is the new wave! In all fairness, this is kind of the face and silent vibes Kanye frequently gives anytime we see him filmed via camera phone — even with his wife. So, maybe social media just isn’t his thing? Getty
Source: MARK RALSTON / Getty Despite the Oscar drama last year surrounding the Best Picture flub , host Jimmy Kimmel still managed to put on an entertaining show. One of the highlights of the 2017 Academy Awards was when a bus full of tourists entered the arena only to be greeting by some of the biggest stars in the world. Gary Coe (a.k.a. Gary from Chicago) stole the show in that moment: The highest moment in Gary’s life was soon followed by one of the lowest. According to the former convict,”[Life after the Oscars] was horrible I didn’t ask to be put on the Oscars. I was minding my own business, walking down the street.” It pisses me off that they really dug into that tourist from the Oscar's Gary Coe like what does his criminal past have to do with anything — bri bri. (@_bNichelleeeeee) March 1, 2017 The 60-year old had just been released from prison only three days prior to the Oscars after 20 years behind bars. He was sentenced as part of the three-strikes law in California, with one of his arrests for an alleged attempted rape. Coe told the Hollywood Reporter that his engagement to his then fiancee fell apart right after the show. Although he’s newly engaged to a different woman, Gary added, “And how about the way it’s come down? Look what happened to Harvey Weinstein! Come to find out that the people up in really high places are the ones we should’ve been watching, and not some poor little black guy that’s been locked away in prison for the last 20 years!” Yikes! We can’t wait to see who steals the show at this year’s Academy Awards. Catch the big show on Sunday at 8pm EST.
