Meghan Markle vs. Camilla Parker Bowles: Royal Feud Alert!

When Meghan Markle reached out to British sex workers last month, the gesture was likened to past philanthropic campaigns spearheaded by her mother-in-law Camilla Parker Bowles. Like Meghan, Camilla prides herself on championing causes that other public figures prefer to look away from. So when Meghan made it clear that she intends to focus on less photo-op-friendly causes like addiction, mental health, and the dangers faced by sex workers, it was widely assumed that she and Camilla enjoy a close relationship with a foundation of shared values. But according to a new report from Radar Online, that’s very much not the case . As you’re likely aware, Meghan is feuding with just about everyone these days. The reports of the Duchess of Sussex locking horns with Kate Middleton have gained the most tabloid traction, but there have also been reports of Meghan feuding with Prince William , Prince Charles, and just about everyone else in the Royal Family, with the possible exception of the Queen. Now, it seems Camilla can be added to Meg’s ever-growing enemies list. And according to Radar, this feud is getting uglier by the day. “The drama with Meghan and Kate is nothing compared to what’s going on with Camilla,” an insider tells the site. “Camilla doesn’t really talk to Meghan,” the source adds. “She is snobbiest and least friendly.” Apparently, Camilla’s complaints are the same as the other royal traditionalists who think Meg’s not deserving of her title. Bowles reportedly doesn’t like that Meghan is American, a former actress, and famously headstrong. (There have been widespread reports that Meg is being treated unfairly by so many Brits due to her race, but we’ll leave that speculation for another time.) “Camilla even told her ‘this is real life and you’re not an actress playing a role,’” says one tipster. “Meghan has tried everything to get Camilla to warm up to her and nothing has worked. “She wants to be close to her, but Camilla isn’t allowing it.” As Charles’ second wife after Princess Di, Camilla is certainly accustomed to being treated unfairly by the British press. One would think that she and Meg would be able to bond over that shared experience. But apparently, Camilla’s the type of bully who likes to pay it forward.

Ariana Grande Calls "Literal Bullsh-t" on Mac Miller Grammy Loss

Ariana Grande did not attend the 2019 Grammy Awards . As previously detailed, the popular pop star got into a beef with producers over her planned performance, eventually canceling it altogether and skipping the ceremony completely. But while Grande wasn’t in attendance on Sunday night, she clearly tuned in to the event at home. And, boy, was she angry about it! Grande live-Tweeted a significant portion of the telecast. After winning Best Pop Vocal Album for “Sweetener,” for example, Ariana wrote: “I know I’m not there tonight (trust, I tried and still truly wished it had worked out tbh) and I know I said I try not to put too much weight into these things, but f-ck. “This is wild and beautiful. Thank you so much.” She also thanked her collaborators and professional partners, as you can see below: However, Grande’s good mood didn’t last. When it came to the Best Rap Album category, Grande expressed her extreme frustration at Cardi B taking home the top prize over her late ex-boyfriend, Mac Miller. Especially because the Recording Academy had invited Miller’s grieving parents to attend the show. “Trash. F-ck. Bullsh-t. Literal bullsh-t,” Grande Tweeted in response to this result, quickly clarifying that she did not mean to throw any shade at Cardi B: “Nothing to do w her. good for her. i promise. i’m sorry,” she wrote. The singer went on to explain that she was upset on behalf of Miller’s family, who flew out to Los Angeles specifically for the Grammys. “Y’all invited Mac’s parents out and you didn’t give him an award are y’all DUMB? @RecordingAcademy,” a fan tweeted, to which Grande replied: “This. this is what i meant. karen was gonna have a green suit made.” Grande eventually deleted all Tweets related to Miller’s loss. Miller tragically passed away from a drug overdose in September of 2018. He and Grande dated for about two years and only broke up a few months before he died. For whatever it’s worth, Miller  was  honored during the In Memoriam segment of the show.  Last Thursday, meanwhile, Grande blased Grammys producer Ken Ehrlich for saying that Ariana couldn’t perform at the event because she didn’t have time to “pull together” a set. Sources have said Ariana was actually pissed that producers told her NOT to sing the track “7 Rings” due to some plagirism rumors surrounding the hit. “I’ve kept my mouth shut but now you’re lying about me,” Grande fired back on Twitter, adding: “I can pull together a performance over night and you know that, Ken. “it was when my creativity & self expression was stifled by you, that i decided not to attend. i hope the show is exactly what you want it to be and more.” She added: “I offered 3 different songs. it’s about collaboration. it’s about feeling supported. it’s about art and honesty. not politics. not doing favors or playing games. “it’s just a game y’all.. and i’m sorry but that’s not what music is to me.”

The Walking Dead Recap: Who’s Pregnant?

The Walking Dead returned to the air Sunday night, and it was an hour that was filled with twists and a whole lot of zombie goodness.  A lot was left up in the air after the shock death of Jesus at the hands of The Whisperers, but one of the more pressing questions surrounded what became of Negan.  The supervillain managed to escape from his jail cell in Alexandria thanks to someone leaving it unlocked.  Judith was shocked to see him scaling the wall to escape but realized that she was best to leave him to his own devices.  She thought he would return in the end, but did that ring true? This is the man who murdered a bunch of our heroes, so it’s difficult to imagine redemption being on the cards for him.  Stranger things have happened on this show.  Negan did return to the Sanctuary, but there was little to see. The place he once yelled orders from afar was a ghost town.  His world as he knew it was over. In a shocking turn of events, he returned to Alexandria.  Everyone needs to keep an eye on him at this stage because he’s probably looking for the time to strike.  When he does, it will spell doom for a bunch of characters. Hell, maybe he’ll be able to help out with The Whisperers.  The Hilltop, meanwhile, started off the hour wondering what happened to the search party.  Yeah, the same search party that was ambushed by The Whisperers. Jist as Luke and Alden launched another search party to investigate, the OG team returned … with a body.  Jesus was definitely dead, so there’s no chance of him popping back up down the line. The only good news here is that they brought one of The Whisperers back with them.  The woman did not want to reveal too much, and that was too be expected from someone who is part of the new band of villains.  As such, bringing her back was a big waste of time because it’s only going to make the rest of her crew want to find her before she dies.  With The Whisperers hiding in plain sight as zombies, it’s certainly difficult to find them.  Away from the Hilltop, Alden and Luke found themselves in a bit of a pickle.  They walk straight into a group of the new villains before a woman appears in her full zombie get up.  “Trail ends here,” she says.  Yikes.  In another big twist, Rosita revealed she was carrying Siddiq’s child, and Eugene is going to be super pissed.  What are your thoughts on the episode? Hit the comments below.  The Walking Dead airs Sundays on AMC. View Slideshow: The Walking Dead Season 9: What’s About to Go Down?

‘RHOAS11’ Recap: Kandi Makes A Surprising Gesture Toward Porsha

See the article here:

Source: Tasia Wells / Getty The Real Housewives of Atlanta crew is still in Tokyo! Now it’s time for Eva’s second official bachelorette party. Tanya is hosting the party and planned a mix of culture with the typical bachelorette stuff so this is going to be interesting. NeNe comes through and acts weird the entire time. She’s basically taking her drama with Gregg out on everyone. But things get really amusing when the Japanese stripper comes through. He doesn’t speak English but it’s an interesting experience as he dances in a g-string and socks, and is generally very ironically reserved. He even bows after finishing his dance. This type of stripper culture is obviously super far off from what these ATLiens are used to, but they made due, and definitely cracked jokes.   Once the stripper leaves, Tanya introduces some games. The first game was where they’re supposed to dress in the most outlandish Harajuku-inspired looks they can, but they don’t like Tanya’s game so they shift to more traditionally raunchy bachelorette stuff. Then they take the party out on the town and have a blast. The next day, NeNe gets a chance to speak to Gregg on the phone and tells him she didn’t have a good time on the trip because of what’s going on between them. She’s exhausted nurturing him all the time and not having anyone to lift her up. Plus she doesn’t like who Gregg has become with cancer. Cynthia comes to check on her so she cuts the conversation with Gregg short, but this is the moment she finally gets to break down. She comes to tears as she explains to Cynthia that she’s tired of being strong all the time and that she sometimes needs to be vulnerable. Cynthia is all ears and very supportive like a good girlfriend should be. The next day, they hit the town for a samurai lesson. That turns out to be a clumsy, but fun experience. Then we find Eva and NeNe kicking it later on and the next thing you know NeNe gets flowers and a card. It’s from Gregg and he’s offering a deep apology. He apologizes for the pain he inflicted on her, tells her he loves her and asks her to let him back into her heart. NeNe is crying so hard she can barely stand it but it seems like it’s happy tears. Finally, Eva brings the group together for a final dinner in Tokyo. They discuss their highs, lows, hopes, dreams, and plans. They’re actually supportive of each other and there’s actually no drama or cattiness.  Then comes the moment where Kandi surprises everyone by telling Porsha that she feels crappy about some of the things she said about Dennis because she experienced that behavior from people with Todd, and Todd turned out to be amazing. So she understands how Porsha feels and apologizes for her behavior with regard to that. Porsha accepts her apology and is committed to moving forward and having better communication between them with hopes that they can once be cool again like they were. They hug it out just in time to head back to Atlanta!

Tamar Braxton’s Ex Vincent Herbert May Have Royalties Seized To Pay Debt

Source: Michael Bezjian / Getty Vincent Herbert , the ex-husband of Celebrity Big Brother star Tamar Braxton, might have to let go some of his royalties to settle a $65,000 debt. Herbert has worked behind the scenes with the likes of Toni Braxton , Destiny’s Child, and others. The Blast reports : According to court documents obtained by The Blast, a company named Manhattan Leasing Enterprises is taking steps to collect the money owed to them from Herbert. They sued him for allegedly breaching a 2016 Rolls Royce lease and were awarded a $65,138.02 judgment in the case. Since being awarded the judgment, they claim to have not been paid a dime from Herbert on the debt. Manhattan Leasing recently subpoenaed American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP) to find answers about Herbert’s royalties and music income. Manhattan specifically wants to know about royalties that Herbert is collecting for his work on the Toni Braxton songs “How Many Ways” and “Please,” multiple tracks by JoJo, Destiny’s Child, Mindless Behavior, Montell Jordan, Bryson Tiller and even music from Gloria Gaynor. A hearing in the matter will be held next month. — Photo: Getty

Floyd Mayweather Sr. Caught The Fade In Boxing Training Session [Video]

Source: Ethan Miller / Getty The father of Floyd Mayweather Jr. made his mark in boxing as both a professional fighter and most notably as a trainer. However, a training session didn’t go Floyd Sr.’s way recently and he caught a fade but appeared to be fine shortly after. TMZ Sports reports : Floyd Mayweather Sr. — a former pro boxer who became one of the top trainers in the world — was at his son’s TMT boxing gym in Vegas this week, where he decided to spar with one of the younger guys. It started off great … with Floyd Sr. stickin’ and movin’ and throwing some pretty quick shots — but, when the other guy started to fight back, it didn’t go well for the old man. Floyd took a few clean shots to the head — sending him flying backward … and ended with the elder Mayweather lying flat on his back with his feet up in the air. Before the jokes fly, Floyd Sr. is 66 years old and probably in better shape than men half his age. Anyone can catch the hands and it was just his time. — Photo: Getty

Black History Month Almost Takes An L While Black Women Continue To Shine: This Week’s Winners & Losers

Continue reading here:

Source: NurPhoto / Getty Black History Month was sooo close to losing this first full week of February. The racist ridiculousness was something serious.  But as the ancestors said before us, still we rise. Check out the losers for the week below, then hit the next page to find out who helped save what was left of Black History month! Losers People who don’t know what racism is Clearly, racism needs to get more airtime in school classrooms because it seems people still don’t understand the full weight of the phenomenon. The topic received a lot of attention this week starting with Liam Neeson who revealed that he once went looking to kill a “Black bastard” after his friend said she was raped by a Black man. Neeson explained himself on Good Morning America   and how he regretted his feelings at the time. However, he never once said that his actions and sentiments were racist. As a matter of fact, he went on to say “I’m not racist, this was nearly 40 years ago.”   Sorry Liam, that was racist. Find out why here. The non-acknowledgement of racism didn’t stop here, however. The next day, Neeson’s co-star in the movie Widows Michelle Rodriguez had the audacity to defend Neeson by saying: “Dude, have you watched  Widows ? His tongue was so far down  Viola Davis’  throat. You can’t call him a racist ever. Racists don’t make out with the race that they hate, especially in the way he does with his tongue—so deep down her throat. I don’t care how good of an actor you are. It’s all bullsh**. Ignore it. He’s not a racist.”   Father help us. I guess Michelle missed that unit on Black fetishization in her 5th grade history class. And guess what Michelle? It’s all tied to the one big family of… R A C I S M.   And finally, you’d think after think pieces, Twitter rants and Facebook arguments, people would understand that blackface is bad and also has ties to racism , right? Naw. According to a recent YouGov poll , only 58 percent of Americans believe blackface is bad. Meanwhile, Gucci is making blackface sweaters and current Democrat leaders, like Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam , are being pinned for their blackface past. *Sigh* Either  A LOT of teaching needs to be done or people just don’t care. Either way, racism is clearly still alive.

Keeping Up with the Kardashians Season 16: First Dramatic Look!

Ka… BOOM! Kim Kardashian is about to drop a bombshell on her family. E! has unveiled the first trailer for Keeping Up with the Kardashians Season 16 and our initial look at all the craziness to come centers on Kim and Kanye West's big news. That is, the fourth child that is set to join their family. As previously detailed, Kim and Kanye are once again using a surrogate to add another baby to their precious immediate family. It's unknown exactly when he will arrive — but it will be a he . They're welcoming a boy! “We have an announcement to make,” Kim tells her loved ones in this footage, including Kris Jenner and Scott Disick, over dinner. “We're having a baby!” This actually marks the first time Kim has acknowledged the major development in a public forum. While a new addition is on the way, Kim also talks here about an old issue. Namely, how many feuds Kanye continues to get himself into, from Drake to Ariana Grande to probably someone new by the time you read this. “Kanye's friends always publicly talk sh-t about him,” the beauty mogul says, adding in this teaser: “I don't got love.” Elsewhere, Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick continue to co-parent their three kids… despite no longer being together romantically. “I don't want you to think I'm giving a mixed message,” Kourt tells Scott in the clip. “You barely give a regular message,” Scott responds, which actually made us laugh. Disick, of course, is seriously dating Sofia Richie and has been for well over a year now. Kourtney, as of this writing at least, remains single. However: “Kourtney's obsessed with Kanye,” Scott says at one point, to which Kim awkwardly replies: “The family that swaps together, stays together!” Look for the family to travel to Bali this season, for for Khloe to blow up at her relatives. “I could be selfish and spend all the time with me and my daughter. I don't even have to be here!” she screams in the preview. Keeping Up With the Kardashians Sunday, March31 at 9/8c only on E!. Check out this fun video now!

FBI Reportedly Working Closely With The Cast And Crew Of ‘Empire’ After Attack On Jussie Smollett

Read the rest here:

T he investigation is still ongoing concerning the homophobic and racist attack on Jussie Smollett   on Jan. 29. The FBI is reportedly working closely with cast and crew on the set of “Empire,” specifically to track down who sent Smollett a death threat before the attack, according to TMZ. See Also: Mike Pence Has The Unchristian Nerve To Compare Trump To Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. “Sources on set tell us a private security company was hired by the show and met with FBI agents to establish a protocol for inspecting all incoming mail,”  TMZ reported. “We’re told the team wears gloves so the evidence in question is not contaminated.” The security team is there “to flag threatening, incoming mail and alert the FBI, and to possibly link new items to the letter Jussie already received, containing homophobic and racists epithets along with an image of a noose.” “Empire” has consistently received racist and homophobic hate mail, but now everyone is on high alert and the FBI is screening all incoming mail. On Jan. 29, while walking to a Subway in Chicago, two men reportedly yelled racial and homophobic slurs at the actor after he exited a restaurant, investigators told The Hollywood Reporter . They allegedly punched and poured bleach on him while one of the suspects put a rope around his neck. As they fled the scene, Smollett told police they said, “This is MAGA country.” Nine days before, threatening letters were directed at Smollett, reportedly sent to Fox Studios in Chicago. The cutout letters said, “You will die black f**.” See below: “Jussie Smollett You will die black fag” Okay, I'm ready to fight. pic.twitter.com/h42Px47lvW — ℝ
