Source: @JustInMyView / R1 Digital Just two years ago, everybody and their mama had something negative to say about Meek Mill. He was dating Nicki Minaj (who was America’s Hip Hop Sweetheart at the time) and sparked an infamous beef with Drake , who also happened to be a beloved jewel to the masses — which made folks want to cancel the Philly bul altogether. But after being arrested last year and spending 8 months away in prison, people’s hearts grew fonder for Meek and what he brings to the game. With folks like Jay-Z supporting him, it was easy for former haters to jump on the “free Meek” bandwagon. Now the Dreamchasers CEO is free, with a whole new lease on life — and his new album Championships is a direct reflection of that. Without being too preachy, Meek still manages to spit some truths about the state of his city, the country and surviving as a Black man in this world in general. There are few songs here and there when he talks about his money, h**s and watches — but not in his usual braggadocios way. This is Meek Mill all grown up. Hit the flip to check out all the lines on Championships that will have you saying “I felt that.”
Source: Global Grind / Global Grind Another episode of The Rewind is here and we are more than happy to give you your much-needed dose of recap reality. Every week we revisit some of the pop culture trends, movies, viral moments and music from the week before and give our hot takes. Our experts Landon Lavarius and DJ Franchise share their opinions, sprinkle in some facts and then when it’s all over and done with, provide a rating of 1 to 10. We listen to the songs, watch the movies, scour the internet, and do the hard work so you don’t have to. On today’s episode, we’re getting into the new Robin Hood film. Unless you’ve lived under a rock your entire life, you probably know the story of Robin Hood pretty well. He was a well-meaning thief that robbed the rich to give to the poor. There have been a ton of movies based on the story of Robin Hood but this particular one came out on November 21, 2018 and stars Taron Egerton, Jamie Foxx, Ben Mendelsohn and others. It was produced by Leonardo DiCaprio, Jennifer Davisson Killoran, and Basil Iwanyk. The story is a classic and other Robin Hood movies (and cartoons) have seemingly been received well. However, this one? Not so much. Rotten Tomatoes gave it a 16% on the Tomatometer and with a production budget of $100 million, the film only brought in a total gross of $25.9 million worldwide. To say it flopped would be an understatement. The new Robin Hood was a box office bomb. But was it really bad or was it overshadowed by the release of Creed II, which did amazing in the box office? DJ Franchise and Landon Levarius give their take. We also break down last week’s rap battle between Joyner Lucas and Tory Lanez. The two exchanged some friendly fire after Tory Lanez got a little cocky on Instagram Live and said that Joyner Lucas couldn’t see him lyrically. Joyner challenged him to a bar for bar battle that resulted in several diss tracks between the two. It’s cool though, they are both still fans of one another and did it all for the love of hip hop. Did you get to listen for yourself? DJ Franchise and Landon Levarius give us a break down, and of course a rating, of the freestyles on today’s episode of The Rewind .

Just last month, Snooki proved she’s a very protective mother . Now, the Jersey Shore veteran has offered up proof that she’s about to become a mother once again. On Thanksgiving Day morning, the long-time reality star informed Instagram followers that she has a very special reason to be thankful this holiday season… … because she and husband Jionni LaValle are expecting their third child together! She confirmed the exciting news via a photo of six-year old son Lorenzo and four-year old daughter Giovanna holding a sonogram, writing as a caption to the very sweet image: “What I’m thankful for this Thanksgiving.” And here is that image: The revelation shouldn’t come as a major surprise to anyone that has been following Snooki on social media or simply following her life in general. Back in August, the MTV personality told Entertainment Tonight that she and LaValle were “trying,” adding at the time: “I’m practicing now. It’s going good. I’m not pregnant yet but, I mean, we’ve been practicing for a month now so…” Snooki included a second snapshot of her current kids and their impending sibling along with this message: It’s unclear exactly how long Snooki and her man have been trying to add to their brood — but it sounds like the procreation took awhile. But wasn’t altogether terrible, either. “We get our wine, we order pizza and then we go into our spare room,” Snooki previously told Us Weekly of the couple’s monthly date nights, explaining even further: “We stay up till 3 o’clock in the morning just watching Netflix and getting drunk and trying to have a baby.” Snooki and LaValle for married in November of 2014. This past April, the often-drunk Jersey Shore cast member had to tell the same tabloid mentioned above that she’s not getting divorced. “I’m still proudly wearing my ring,” she told Us at the time, adding of her husband: “I love him to death. I think people worry because we never take pictures together and post on Instagram. He hates pictures, he hates this fame life. He likes to be quiet and reserved, which humbles me. “So, I think if I don’t take pictures with him or I don’t share my life with him, people are like, ‘Are you still with your husband?’ I don’t need to share with the world what me and my husband are going through. “We are totally fine. “We don’t post our life on social media, but I love him to death and he’s my best friend and he’s just a little shy so leave him alone.” Well… that’s great for their marriage and family, but less than ideal for a celebrity gossip site such as ours. But whatever. Way to go, guys! We’re so very happy for you!
It’s Thanksgiving, so look at some American Colonialist named Olga de Mar making her way in the world…the American way and thanks to the internet she doesn’t even need to be in America to do it….but because of the American influence and the American need to follow nude pics of nude girls getting nude from all over the world….on American owned social media platforms…she is in a lot of ways living the American Dream….a Thanksgiving Miracle featuring someone who may not even know what Thanksgiving is, but doesn’t need to to contribute to the bottom line of American publicly traded companies through hr hotness…and willingness to do whatever it takes to get noticed. I give thanks to sluts. Her bio “do not offer me instagram brand deal,escorting,image,hostess,hairdone,friendship,love” What… The post Olga de Mar in a Hot Nude Shoot of the Day appeared first on DrunkenStepFather.com .
Miley Cyrus is a Thanksgiving Miracle, not because she survived her home burning in one of the Woolsey Camp Fires that didn’t kill enough garbage celebrities, but rather just gave them opportunities for sympathy from idiots who think Celebs are human, and the insurance companies they plan to rip off… But a Thanksgiving miracle thanks to living that American Dream you all fought for in all the wars building up to American Freedom….because she was just a rich kid with a dream, a connected rich kid with a dream, who thanks to her dad being a One Hit Wonder Hick, was able to be sold off to the execs at Disney. Sexualized in their office as they do, and presented to the world as this character, totally accessible, safe for work, white girl with a barely clever premise, but it was designed for kids, not the perverts who decided Miley was hot and watched the show too… Well…she was able to rebrand herself by getting naked at her own will, thanks to her marketing team team, taking ownership of her pussy by showing us all her pussy, totally unnecessary, but she did it anyway…and inspired so many other people to get naked…changing the whole course of the content girls produced…taking nude on the internet to the mainstream. If that’s not a Thanksgiving Miracle Worth Giving Thanks To…I don’t know what is. These pics of her recently surfaced, so I figure I’ll post them as a THROWBACK thursday.

90 Day Fiance viewers have already watched Leida react with disgust to Eric's apartment . At the time, Eric laid most of the blame for the state of his home at the feet of his 19-year-old daughter. In this sneak peek, Leida finally confronts Eric's daughter — and tries to force her out of the apartment. Take a look: Be warned: this sneak peek is intensely awkward. Leida Margaretha is in the awkward position of being a 29-year-old talking to her fiance's teenage daughter. Tasha is a 19-year-old appearing on reality television while getting confronted by her dad's girlfriend and also meeting said girlfriend. Meanwhile, Eric Rosenbrook is there, caught in the middle of his daughter and his girlfriend. Of course, since Eric's the one who threw his daughter under the bus over the state of the home, he's a little less sympathetic in this situation. Leida is pretty frank and direct with Tasha, but she takes a conversational tone as she scolds the 19-year-old. “I wasn't comfortable when I got here,” Leida shares. “What you've done,” Leida continues. “it was like, it was such a mess and I was pissed.” Leida has shared that she feels that Eric let her down and lied to her, but for this scene, she's directing her ire at Tasha. “I mean, like, I was very upset,” Leida emphasizes as Tasha takes a seat on the inflatable couch. Leida adds: “I didn't expect that the place was gonna be such a mess.” Leida even spins a theory that Tasha deliberately left the apartment in such a state. “Did you do that on purpose?” Leida asks. “To make me, like, explode?” “No,” Tasha replies. “I didn't do that on purpose.” “I felt like that,” Leida replies. Tasha does apologize, but reiterates that she was not trying to ruin Leida's day or sabotage her father's engagement. Outside, and speaking to the camera, Tasha admits that her father warned her via text that Leida was pissed about the state of the apartment. (As viewers saw, it wasn't tidy … but it certainly wasn't filthy, either. It just needed a little tidying) She also says that she was irritated that Leida seemed unwilling to look at her during the confrontation. The awkwardness of sitting on an inflatable couch was compounded by what Tasha perceived as rudeness. This may be a cultural difference. Indonesian culture tends to discourse aggressive confrontation. Leida may have been hoping to avoid seeming aggressive or overly hostile by looking away. That's just a guess, however. Perhaps she was distracted by cameras or producers. Eric and Leida then seem to focus on trying to make Tasha feel guilty. “It's not that hard, you either do feel bad for what happened, or you don't,” Eric says. if you've ever been a 19-year-old, you know that this kind of conversation got super old years ago. Finally, Leida decides to try to eject Tasha from her home. “I want you to move out,” Leida announces. “I don't think that we can work it out.” “I don't plan on being here forever…but as far as I know you're not yet on the lease,” Tasha says. Tasha concludes: “You can't kick me out. I'm sorry, but you're going to have to deal with that” There is so much here that we are not seeing, so let's not be too harsh with Eric and Leida over this. For one thing, it sounds like it's always been the plan for Tasha to leave. There is a glaring space issue in the apartment, which (along with his bed) was the one thing for which he could not blame his daughter. Additionally, between editing and prompting by producers, we know that 90 Day Fiance will push things to be more conflicted. We've heard from a few people who appeared on the show but did not sign NDAs that producers will allegedly feed people lines to stir up drama. So let's take what we see here with a grain of salt … and we'll see the conclusion on the actual episode.
