Josiah Duggar and Lauren Swanson Stun Fans, Almost Get to First Base on Instagram

For Josiah Duggar and Lauren Swanson, first came love. And then came marriage. And, pretty soon, will come a baby in a baby carriage. This classic nursery rhyme is appropriate in this case because, first, it very much applies to the famous couple and, second, they were totally just caught (although not in a tree) K-I-S-S-I-N-G. Duggar and Swanson shared a handful of new photos on their joint Instagram account this week, displaying an unusual amount of public affection for members of this polarizing family. You can check out the romantic snapshots above and below. “Love doing life with you” wrote the twosome as a sweet caption, adding: “Btw I’m ready for fall, Siah is still in summer. #date #blessed.” As you can see here, Josiah and Lauren are engaged in a lengthy peck on each other’s lips, nearly getting to first base in the process — yet narrowly missing the accomplishment by keeping their tongues in their respective mouths. The couple did not swap spit of any kind, of course, until they got married in June of 2018 . Shortly thereafter, Josiah and Lauren swapped some bodily fluids, resulting in the latter getting pregnant… only for Lauren to suffer a tragic miscarriage several months ago . “I just want to thank each and everyone of you for your prayers, support, and for all you Mama’s out there for sharing your angel baby stories,” the Counting On star captioned an Instagram photo back in March, adding at the time: “It’s easy to share those happy times in our lives, but sharing something hard, like losing a baby can be like putting salt to a wound. “I know by y’all sharing your stories it has not only helped me, but many other women who have gone through the same trials.” Just a short while later, by the grace of God some might say, Lauren and Josiah announced they were expecting for a second time. “We are so excited to announce that baby No. 2 is on the way!!!!” they wrote on May 20, adding in excitement  and gratitude: “It’s hard to fully express just how grateful we are for God blessing us again with another precious gift! “So, as we rejoice of the life of our second sweet baby, we also remember (balloon as symbolism) our other sweet baby, Asa, in heaven. God is so incredibly good! “#MiraclesDoHappen, #babynumber2, #rainbowbaby and #DaddyandMamaof2blessings.” In June, we then learned the stars are having a girl. Lauren, for her part, has been keeping fans well apprised of her status and her baby bump via a number of social media posts and pictures. On August 10, she posted some photos of herself showing off her stomach and wrote: “Life is such a gift and something I cherish more now, with all that we have gone through this past year. “This pregnancy hasn’t been easy. I treasure every moment and I am reminded daily that life is truly a miracle from God. “#blessed #lifeisagift #donttakelifeforgranted.” We don’t know for certain when Lauren is due, but we wish her nothing but good health and happiness.

Peter Weber Rushed to Hospital For "Serious Injury" During Bachelor Filming

From the moment that Peter Weber was announced as the new Bachelor , the decision was mired in controversy. Now, strange reports from the set have led some fans to the conclusion that we may be in for the franchise’s weirdest season yet. First, we learned that Hannah Brown is involved in Peter’s season for reasons that still aren’t entirely clear. Now, Radar Online is reporting that Weber was hospitalized after suffering “a serious injury” during filming on Monday. Apparently, the 28-year-old was participating in a group golfing date when a freak accident occurred: “He went to step on the cart but fell and split his face open on two cocktail glasses he was carrying,” a production source tells Radar. Peter required 22 stitches but was released from the hospital later the same day. “He is pulling through,” the insider says, adding that the injury may force a delay in taping. “Everyone is worried about production,” the insider claims, as “all the women were flying in for a filming today” for several days of consecutive filming. Between The Bachelor , The Bachelorette , and The Bachelor In Paradise , there’s almost always one Bachelor Nation show on the air and another one in production. It’s a tight schedule that keeps Chris Harrison’s pockets pleasantly plump … but doesn’t allow for much in the way of unforeseen delays. A source from the set claims Peter was not drunk at the time of the accident, but simply suffered an unfortunate misstep. Hey, when you think about it, it’s sort of amazing that “cocktail glass to the face while golfing” isn’t a more common injury. If you’ve been keeping up with our Bachelor spoilers , you know that Peter is down to his final 12 after cutting four contestants during a rose ceremony held on Saturday. As for whether or not Hannah’s still on set, that remains unclear — but it looks like producers might be planning to keep her around as a sort of wild card pseudo-contestant for the remainder of the season. “They’re weaving Hannah into as many storylines as possible,” says spoiler master Reality Steve, who notes that Hannah has already “hosted” at least one group date. We appreciate that producers are trying to keep things fresh and beef up the dramatic tension, but Hannah already chose Tyler Cameron and Jed freakin’ Wyatt over Peter. We doubt dude is feeling tempted to give her yet another chance. View Slideshow: The Bachelor Spoilers: Peter Weber’s Final 12; Hannah Brown Still Trying to Win Pilot’s Heart?!

FREE AT LAST—PERIOOOODT: City Girls’ JT Finally Gets Released From Prison, Announces “First Day Out” Freestyle

Source: (Photo by Jeff Hahne/Getty Images)  City Girls’ JT Released From Prison Quality Control’s female duo City Girls just got the blessing they’ve been waiting on. JT, one half of the City Girls, was just released from prison after numerous fake promises of release. The Miami native was sentenced over a year go due to fraud-related charges. She ended up being sentenced shortly after the City Girls wave took off and that removed her from all of the celebrity and fame her counterpart has been soaking up. While she was away, the City Girls have snatched up multiple hits including “Act Up” and “Twerk” featuring Cardi B. Before she went in to serve her time, the girl group released a documentary showcasing the days leading up to her surrender. Hopefully, we get a part 2 showcasing Yung Miami’s pregnancy and her passing the torch to JT while she takes time off for her bundle of joy . But for now, we can look forward to JT’s impending “First Day Out” Freestyle. If you aren’t familiar with why she’s releasing a freestyle first thing after getting out of jail, it’s been a trend for Southern rappers for quite some time to release a song within the first 24 hours of release. Most famous for this is the one and only Gucci Mane’s “First Day Out,” which is now a Southern hip-hop classic! Congrats to JT on finally being released and coming home to what’s sure to be a whole lot of love from fans. Everyone has been waiting on this moment since JT and Yung Miami got huge, and with Quality Control on their team, there’s no telling how much more popular they’ll get now that the City Girls are back together. Update: Listen to “First Day Out Freestyle” here.

Almost Home: 6ix9ine Gets Sentencing Pushed Up Via Request & Is Likely To Receive Time Served

Source: Revolt/iHeartMedia / Revolt/iHeartMedia 6ix9ine Gets Sentencing Pushed Up Former Treyway member Tekashi 6ix9ine is almost back home with his family. After being arrested immediately following his November 2018 Breakfast Club interview , the rapper was hit some serious RICO charges–charges which a lot of people were assuming would be his demise. Tekashi took the stand and told on everyone under the sun in a case that had more plot twists than a SAW movie. Kidnapping , shootings, paid hits: it all seems like the perfect biopic for prime time TV. An now, it looks like 6ix9ine may be free to play himself it that ever actually happens. After his testimony helped put away most of the Nine Trey Bloods (which is a prison gang mostly anyway), prosecutors asked for his sentencing to be moved up from its initially scheduled date in January/February of 2020. To absolutely no one’s surprise, the judge approved this request and the new date is now set for December 28, 2019 . This approval almost guarantees a time served sentencing and immediate release back into the free world. This latest news comes after a weird press release where the has apparently declined witness protection. If Tekashi does end up being held or doing any of the time in front of him, it would be surprising to a lot of people–but after the performance he put on while on the stand it looks like the state of New York is ready to let him free. In this scenario, we really don’t know which one would be safer for the rapper, but it looks like we’ll find out sooner than later. Whether or not you’re a fan of Tekashi 6ix9ine, it’s safe to say this is going to be an interesting saga to watch to say the least.

#JoshuaBrown: Botham Jean’s Neighbor, A Key Witness In The Amber Guyger Murder Trial, Shot To Death

Source: Stewart F. House / Getty Joshua Brown, Key Witness In The Botham Jean Trial, Killed According to Dallas News , Botham Jean’s neighbor, Joshua Brown, was killed Friday. He was a key witness in the Amber Guyger murder trial that ended last week. The news came from social media posts by Lee Merritt, the lawyer who represented the Jean family:  “Joshua Brown, the next door neighbor of #BothamJean was killed last night after being shot several times by an unknown assailant. Local media have began reporting on the shooting but have not confirmed Brown’s identity,” Merritt wrote on Facebook. “[…] An ADA has confirmed that it was in fact Brown who was killed although they have yet to identify a suspect or motive for the shooting. The case is now in the hands of the Dallas Police Department.”   View this post on Instagram Joshua Brown, the next door neighbor of #BothamJean was killed last night after being shot several times by an unknown assailant. Local media has reported on the shooting but have not confirmed Brown’s identity. Because, Brown worked closely with prosecutors just a week ago to ensure Amber Guyger was properly convicted in the murder trial, the DA’s office has fairly direct contact with Brown and his family. An ADA has confirmed that it was in fact Brown who was killed although they have yet to identify a suspect or motive for the shooting. The case is now in the hands of the Dallas Police Department. Brown’s testimony stood out as a fact witness who was approaching his apartment directly across from Botham Jean’s apartment when shots rang out. Brown was still visibly shaken up from the incident when he took the stand to testify on behalf of the prosecution. His murder underscores the reality of the black experience in America. A former athlete turned entrepreneur— Brown lived in constant fear that he could be the next victim of gun violence, either state sanctioned or otherwise. We have more work to do deal with the constant threats to our community both from within and without. Brown deserves the same justice he sought to ensure the Jean family. The Dallas County criminal justice system must mobilized to identify his killer and see that he is held accountable for this murder. A post shared by S. Lee Merritt, Esquire (@leemerrittesq) on Oct 5, 2019 at 1:25pm PDT Joshua Brown,28, lived across the hall from Jean at the time of Jean’s September 2018 murder. Brown took the stand during Guyger’s trial, delivering an emotional testimony on the events of that tragic day. Authorities say the investigation is ongoing and no one is in custody. Unconfirmed rumors spread that Brown was shot in the mouth, but the Dallas News has since confirmed that he was shot in the back and thigh. This story is still developing…

Travis Scott Breaks Silence on Kylie Jenner Split: Did He Cheat?!?

Travis Scott has been here before. Observers doubted his feelings for Kylie Jenner back when the rapper and reality star began dating. Then, just this past February, rumors of Scott cheating on Kylie grew so strong that the artist canceled a show simply to return home and deny the allegations to his girlfriend in person. So, yes, here we are again. This time, however, Scott is not sitting out and letting the public ruin his reputation. Three days after Travis and Kylie decided to take a break from their relationship, the former has come out and denied all talk of his disloyalty. “It’s really affecting when u see false things said about u once again these false stories about me cheating are just simply not true,” Scott wrote on his Instagram Story Friday, adding: “Focusing on life, music, and family at this moment is what’s real.” Scott isn’t the only person involved in this situation to have spoken out strongly about it. After news of Jenner and Scott’s break-up went viral earlier this week, an allegation started circulating online that Scott had been involved with a woman named Rojean Kar , who goes by YungSweetRo on Instagram. This heretofore unheard of person said the following in response on her own Instagram Story yesterday: “None of these rumors are true, it’s just the internet creating a false narrative. Please stop spreading lies & leave him, her & I alone because it’s affecting real lives. Thank you.” Kylie, meanwhile, has also made two things clear , as you can see in the Tweet down below: 1. She still loves Scott. 2. She absolutely did not go on a date this week with ex-boyfriend Tyga. “Travis and I are on great terms,” Jenner Tweeted this week. “Our main focus right now is Stormi. Our friendship and our daughter is priority.” As for what led to the split? A source previously explained to People Magazine that Kylie would actually love to have a second child in the near future, but Scott is too focused on his career at the moment. That’s actually a pretty normal and understandable reason for a split, if true. Travis Scott has the above to say about all those pesky cheating rumors. Is this really the end, though? Most outlets seem to say otherwise. “They are taking some time but not done,” said a different People source. “They still have some trust issues but their problems have stemmed more from the stress of their lifestyles.” And this is how an E! News insider sums things up for now: “Kylie is young, but she really wants the traditional family life. She has seen her older sisters with big families and multiple kids and she wants the same. “She loved being at home with Travis and their daughter Stormi Webster more than anything. But right now, their priorities are different.” View Slideshow: Kylie Jenner Playboy Cover: Revealed, Very Busty!

Atlanta Raises $50 Million To Provide Housing For The City’s Homeless Population

Read more:

Keisha Lance Bottoms , the mayor of Atlanta, just announced that the city reached its goal of raising a whopping $50 million to provide housing for the homeless. Text “RICKEY” to 71007 to join the Rickey Smiley Morning Show mobile club for exclusive news. ( Terms and conditions ). According to reports from  Blavity , Atlanta partnered with the United Way of Greater Atlanta to raise the funds. About half of the money came from donations from private organizations, which includes Ameris Bank, who donated the last $114,000 that allowed the city to reach its goal. The other half is from the Homeless Opportunity Bond sale that began under former Mayor Kasim Reed. At the moment, there are over 3,000 homeless people in the city of Atlanta and the money raised will provide 550 homes for the city’s homeless population. “It is a misperception that many people have — that homelessness is represented entirely by the people they see on the streets,” said Jack Hardin, co-chair of the Atlanta Regional Commission on Homelessness. “A far larger proportion of people experiencing homelessness have incomes and function at very high levels, but live on the margins of the economics of our society and any hardship can derail.” This very funding to help curb homelessness in Atlanta was a major priority for former Mayor Kasim Reed’s last year in office. The initiative was initially announced about two years ago, when the city’s largest homeless shelter, Peachtree-Pine, revealed that it was closing its doors. SEE ALSO:   How Atlanta Has Changed Since Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms Was Elected [EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW] The building housed as many as 500 people, but ended up closing after a  10-year battle with various city establishments  and accusations the shelter was  behind a tuberculosis outbreak  in the city. It was unanimously approved by the city council Bottoms was apart of before becoming mayor. “We now have the opportunity to end chronic homelessness in our city, and ensure that all women, men and children – regardless of circumstance – have the chance to live stable, meaningful lives and participate fully in their communities,” Reed said in a written statement at the time the plan was approved. Congrats to Mayor Keisha and everyone else involved on such a major accomplishment for the city of Atlanta.   [ione_media_gallery src=”https://rickeysmileymorningshow.com” id=”1958596″ overlay=”true”]   Follow @TheRSMS This story was originally posted on Bossip.com

Cross Colours: Black Fashion In The 20th Century Exhibition Comes To The CAAM Museum

Visit link:

Source: Kevin Mazur / Getty The 90’s produced an era of African American brands that revolutionized fashion and left a long lasting affect on Black culture . From Baby Phat to Karl Kani, creative expression through fashion was widely practiced and supported. Among the many brands to leave a dent in Black culture was Cross Colours. Not only was their bright color-blocking aesthetic fueled with political messaging, it was also everything we didn’t know we needed at the time. Carl Jones and TJ Walker founded Cross Colours back in 1989. Their clothing line was a testament to the carefree feeling of the 90’s. Back then, women wore baggy clothes like the men so in some ways, they presented as gender neutral brand. It was a rebellious, fun, colorful way to express yourself and represent the culture, hence their tag line “Clothing without Prejudice”. Cross Colours aimed to have an open dialog on police brutality, drugs, and the educational gap by projecting the positive attributes of black and urban culture. https://www.instagram.com/p/B29oJ_ngIS7/?igshid=15ve8ud4gynva https://www.instagram.com/p/B2otX9ego8S/?igshid=w726t7jcv9ap With such a rich history contributed to the urban community, it is great to see that Cross Colours now has an exhibition at The California African American Museum called, “Cross Colours: Black Fashion in the 20th Century.” The exhibit shows the history of brand from it’s birth in 1989 to current day trends. In an interview with Vogue , Co-curator Tyree Boyd-Pates says the exhibition, “is organized as a visual roadmap of the African America social movements that inspired the brand, both thematically and historically.” He adds, “in particular, it shows how Cross Colours modeled Black pride, community responsibility, and solidarity in the early 1990s.” The messaging of the brand is something that rings very true today. “I can’t believe that the slogan we printed on our T-shirts, ‘Clothing Without Prejudice,’ is something that still needs to be said today,” Jones says. “That was in the ’90s, and I think it’s as relevant today as it was then, maybe even more so.” This exhibition couldn’t have come at a better time. It is a great way of showcasing how fashion can make a statement beyond the clothes you wear. There is a lack of Black designers producing affordable, urban street wear like there was in the 90’s. This exhibition in some ways pays homage to the innovators who used fabric as a way to unite an entire community of people. Personally speaking, I’m jealous of the L.A. residents who get to witness the history of Cross Colors at the California African American Museum. From now until March 1, 2020, you can experience the Black Fashion in the 20th Century exhibit.

Charli XCX Ass Shrine of the Day

I saw Charli XCX perform accidentally when I used to leave the house many years ago…and no one cared…. It was at the time she first moved to America from the UK, and was making moves on social media to be the next Rita Ora…a dream no one actually has, because Rita Ora has accomplished very little except maybe fucking a Kardashian….and record producers…to get an illusion of a career…so that she could get invited to the it-parties and fake it til she made it a career.. So at the time I saw her and she was working her tits in leotards hard…no one cared….and I assume still don’t care…but it’s 5-6 years later…and she’s been consistent at the trying to get people to care…using ass, tits, whatever…and according to her IG story, her concert with Brooke Candy, another winner who paved the way for hipster sluts to make bad music, is sold out… So there’s that…while you look at her white panties wishing their was more of a stain on it, but the filters are too strong, we’ll never know if she’s been ovulating in these panties, or better yet, having her period – free bleeding like all the cool kids are doing in these panties…and that’s unfortunate.
