As the duo rocked out on stage, a parade of Hennessy VS bottles were carried around the room. With Nas being the spirit brand’s spokesperson, it was only right that was the drink of choice for the evening. Diddy had bottles of Ciroc and his new DeLeón Tequila in heavy rotation as well.

Nicki Minaj Gets DRAGGED -- By Her Own Fans -- For Mocking Mentally Ill Woman In Miami

 photo nickimental.png

Nicki Minaj is receiving backlash on social media for posting a video on her Instagram of a mentally ill woman in Miami. More inside…

Nicki Minaj must have forgotten the golden rule: Treat Others The Way You Want To Be Treated.

The “ONLY” rapper is getting dragged on social media for posting a video of a mentally ill woman on the streets of Miami. Nicki has been in Miami for the Art Basel festivities that wrapped up this weekend. 

In the clip, you hear the woman yell,“I don’t need your social help” then Nicki asks the woman to “Come here.” As the woman walks away, Nicki starts laughing then she asks the woman what did she do. The woman yells “Go away!” as Nicki continues to laugh.

Check it:

 

 

A video posted by Nicki Minaj (@nickiminaj) on

 

Once Nicki uploaded the video to her Instagram, fans that live in Miami begin to inform her that the woman is mentally ill. Apparently, she’s well known in the area due to her mental issues.
 

Below are a few comments: 

royal_rosey: Y make fun of sum1 like that.. u could have given her something nice.. instead of clowning her like that awwwwwwww so sad... jus a concerned fan of yours @nickiminaj

daydreamingfornow: The fact that you are laughing at her period is sad....either she's homeless , mentally ill or has an drug or alcohol problem. Your not stupid you can tell its one of the few and none are laughing matters!! Shame on you!

sourpatchxxbreezy: Being mentally ill is funny now? Kinda ironic for someone who claimed to have multiple personalities.

they_call_me_shonda: why laugh at the homeless and mentally ill. what goes around comes around. God gave you a talent and he can take it away. instead of you videoing why didn't you go help the woman out. you could've bought her something to eat and some new clothes. but that's what mfs do when they become famous. talk down on ppl. I pray god take everything from you and let you drag. and bless this woman with all what you have. God don't like ugly

The Young Money rapper’s fans aren’t the only ones coming for her. The National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI-Miami) is also checking her over the video. The organization tells TMZ, "Nobody would make fun of a cancer patient, and mental illness is an illness like any other.”

While it's likely Nicki didn’t know the woman suffers from mental illness, she could probably think twice before posting random videos for her 69.7 million Instagram followers to see.

In recent news, Nick’s baby mama Keonna Green will reportedly join the upcoming season of “Basketball Wives: L.A.” Keonna just had Nick’s 2nd baby, a little girl named Navi Young. The L.A. Lakers baller got Keonna pregnant while he was engaged to rapper Iggy Azalea and they eventually broke up.

Nick hasn’t said anything about Keonna appearing on the show yet. But, we’re sure he’ll have plenty to say if she goes on the show airing out all of their dirty laundry.

In other news, a man named Luis Solis is suing Nick. Luis claims the Lakers guard lost his sh*t during a church league basketball game and ended up beating him up. Apparently, Nick got mad that Luis fouled him and the red missed the call. Nick allegedly started beating him up and his teammates supposedly jumped in, resulting in the man suffering from a concussion and other serious injuries. He’s suing for unspecified damages.

GRAMMY NOMS ARE IN -- Beyoncé Nabs 9 (Even A ROCK Nod), Solange Nabs FIRST Nomination, Chance The Rapper Gets 7, Rihanna, Kanye & Drake Rack Up

Beyoncé, Chance The Rapper, Drake, Rihanna and more racked up the Grammy nominations.  Even Solange cashed in on one.  Get it all inside...

 

Beyoncé is set to be the queen of the night when Grammy night rolls around.  She's been nominated for 6 Awards, including Best Rock performance for "Don't Hurt Yourself."  She also nabbed nods for pop solo performance ("Hold Up"), rap/sung performance ("Freedom" with Kendrick Lamar) and urban contemporary album ("Lemonade").

Yonce will battle it out with one of her biggest fans Adele, who nabbed 5 nominations, for the top 3 awards -- Album of the Year, Record of the Year and Song of the Year. 

By the way, she's still making history.  Beyonce's already the most nominated woman in Grammy history with 62 total.  Now, she is the first artist to earn nominations in the pop, rock, R&B and rap categories in the same year.  Get it!

Chance the Rapper is having the best year ever!  After playing hype man to POTUS at the National Christmas Tree lighting and nabbing the last musical guest of the year slot on "SNL," the independent artist copped 7 nominations.

Three nods alone are for best rap song: His track "No Problem," plus writing credit on the Kanye West songs "Famous" and "Ultralight Beam." 

Kanye got nods of best rap album and song, plus writing credits on several nominated tracks for a total of 8 nods. But he likely won't be happy that he was snubbed in the major categories like Album of the Year. Rick Ross also nabbed a nomination for writing credit on the Suicide Squad soundtrack.

We're sure he made Auntie 'Yonce proud.

 

 photo Drake-and-Rihanna_zpsasy85gpx.jpg

Rihanna and Drake are about to strut into the awards on a high as well, since their song "Work" is battling against Bey, Adele, and Tweny One Pilots for Record of the Year.

Ri and Drizzy, whose Views album just went 4x platinum, both nabbed 8 nods each.  Meanwhile, newbie Anderson .Paak will battle it out against a few country and pop stars for Best New Artist.

 

 photo Screen Shot 2016-12-06 at 12.31.02 PM_zpshe2vwtyu.png

Solange Knowles nabbed her first Grammy nomination ever for "Cranes In The Sky."  She's set to battle it out in the Best R&B Performance category.  Remy Ma & Fat Joe nabbed a Best Rap Performance nod for "All The Way Up."

SOULJA BOY VS. EVERYBODY – Shia LaBeouf & Migos’ Quavo Fire SHOTS At Soulja, Then Soulja Grabs His GUNS

 photo souljaeverybody.jpg

Chile, Soulja Boy is beefing with everybody right now. First, actor Shia LeBouf came after Soulja in a few freestyles and Soulja BANNED him from stepping foot in Atlanta.

 

In a separate beef, Soulja just released a new diss track aimed at Migos’ rapper Quavo. Honestly, it all gave us a headache.  Get the foolywang material inside….

Sometimes you gotta to point out foolishness when it happens.

Soulja Boy is causing all type of drama after news broke that he will no longer be starring on “Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood.” The details on his departure are still sketchy (Did he quit? Was he fired?), but he’s back in the headlines with some new rap beef.

A few days ago, Power 105’s “The Breakfast Club” premiered a new freestyle by Shia where he called out Soulja Boy, Drake, Lil Yachty and HOT 97’s Peter Rosenberg.

Here’s what he said about Soulja:

“Not a Nautica boy, I own myself/This whole thing’s a bit absurd but on my word/Is Boat about to get this work/You spit that dirt/Him and Soulja on that shout out shit/This is not, this a murder, this is tragedy man/He’s like Lil Romeo meets Raggedy Ann.”
 

Take a listen below:

Soulja got wind of his diss and he’s not happy about it. He hopped on his Instagram page to warn Shia to stay in his acting lane and that he doesn’t want these problems. In the clip, Soulja threatened Shia telling him he can never step foot in Atlanta ever again…or else.

He said, “You a b*tch a** n*gga, you can’t never come to Atlanta, you can’t never come to the streets in the hood. You can never live my life, you need to stick to acting, real shit nigga.”

He continued, “This rap sh*t ain’t for you nigga, for real, have some nigga pull up on you Fuck Shia Labeouf! N*gga, f*ck you talking about keep my name out your mouth, you don’t want no beef, on my mama, you better stick to acting n*gga cause this shit get real.”

Check it below:

 

 

Fuck Shia LaBeouf!!!

A video posted by Big Soulja (@souljaboy) on

 

Shia didn’t waste any time to respond to Soulja “banning” him from Atlanta. He released a new freestyle titled “Hat Trick Freestyle” (which premiered on Big Boy Neighborhood) where he says he’ll be in the “A” when his schedule permits. He raps:

“I’m an accessible spectacle/I’ll be in Atlanta when my schedule is flexible”

Take a listen below: 
 

Damn. Soulja getting bodied by an actor? Hmph. Ever since Shia slayed his "5 Fingers of Death" freestyle on Sway in the Morning” he’s been killing it with the freestyles.

In another new rap battle...

 photo soul1.png

Soulja Boy is coming after Migos leading hook man Quavo. And it seems to be quite intense.

The rapper hopped on Instagram to preview his new Quavo diss track making a video of himself holding an assault riffle with his new track playing in the background:

 

 

Fuck Quavo!!!!! @migos @quavohuncho

A video posted by Big Soulja (@souljaboy) on

 

Then, he shared screenshots from a text conversation he had with Quavo. From what we make of it, it appears Quavo stopped associating with Soulja due to his beef with his label mate Lil Yachty. Soulja and Yachty were beefin’ a few months ago.

In the texts, Soulja told Quavo to pull up and supposedly gave him his address. Later, he posted a caption that said Quavo never showed up. "B*tch a** n*gga never pulled up ... don't make me leak the phone convo p*ssy," Soulja said on Instagram.

Sighs...

If you care, take a listen to Soulja's diss track "Beef" below:

 

So far, no response from Quavo.

Oprah Scores FINAL White House Interview With First Lady Michelle Obama…And It’s Coming To TV Sooner Than You Think

Oprah just scored the final sitdown with First Lady Michelle Obama at the White House before President Barack Obama’s presidency wraps up. *insert Fantasia's crying face* Find out when it airs and more inside…

We certainly aren’t ready for the First Family to leave the White House. But, every good thing must come to an end. So, what better way to say goodbye than an interview with media mogul Oprah and our First Lady Michelle Obama?!

Lady O will sit down with FLOTUS for her final one-on-one interview inside the White House. And the interview will be here in less than two weeks.

“First Lady Michelle Obama Says Farewell to the White House — An Oprah Winfrey Special,” (produced by OWN Studios) will broadcast on CBS on Dec. 19th at 8/7c. A second airing will premiere on OWN on Dec. 21st at 9/8c.

Mrs. Obama will dish on what it has been like being the First Lady for the last eight years, the legacy she’ll leave behind and what she planned for the future. It has been widely speculated about what FLOTUS will do after President Barack Obama’s presidency ends.

We doubt she'll be involved in politics too much as she has been staunchly against running for any office. And POTUS confirmed she would never run for President.

“Let me tell you, there are three things that are certain in life: death, taxes and Michelle is not running for president. That, I can tell you,” he said.

One thing we do know about what she’ll be doing—she's going to Target! In a previous interview, Mrs. Obama talked about how she missed going shopping in stores like Target without a bevy of secret service men following her around.

You better grab that Targer sales circulator.  We’re here for it!

"Animals have feelings, they have souls, they have emotions, and the way that they are killed for fur is very inhumane," says Jhene in an exclusive video interview. "They're electrocuted, they're beaten, they're drowned, they're skinned alive. And once you know that, it's, like, how could you think wearing fur is cool? … It's not."

After work, it was time for some fun...

BACK AT IT AGAIN: Stevie J Claims Pregnant Joseline Hernandez Assaulted Him…And Now Fears For His Life

It was all good a few days ago. Literally...a few damn days ago. But ish allegedly has already turned violent between Stevie J and a pregnant Joseline Hernandez. Stevie claims Joseline attacked him and now he fears for his life. More inside…

On Sunday, Stevie J and a pregnant Joseline Hernandez seemed to have put their issues aside for the sake of their unborn baby Bonnie Bella. But, there’s still drama brewing between these two.

You’ll recall, Stevie posted up a video of Joseline cooking him breakfastSunday morning with a sweet caption sharing he was ready to take on his responsibility as a dad and was “all in” on helping Joseline with their new bundle of joy. But, something went down shortly after, which we figured since Stevie ended up deleting the post not long after he posted it.

According to Stevie, his pregnant ex-girlfriend showed up to his house…uninvited. He claims a fight broke up shortly after he posted the video of Joseline cooking breakfast. She apparently bruised up his face and eyes during a physical altercation.

So, the “Love & Hip Hop” star, who will be starring on his own spin-off “Leave It To Stevie,” headed down to the courthouse to file legal papers. In the court documents, he reportedly details ANOTHER encounter that happened between them at a DNA lab where he was having a paternity test done at her request.

TMZ got ahold of the court docs that say Joseline threatened Stevie, lunged at him, cursed him out and threw papers all around the room..and the cameras were rolling. Now, Stevie wants the courts to demand Joseline undergo a psychological evaluation as well as anger management. He reportedly fears for his life and the baby’s. He’s also requesting to have a guardian appointed for the baby who should be making her arrival in a few weeks.

With cameras with them at the DNA lab, we could possibly see the showdown on “LAHH” or Joseline’s upcoming delivery special she has been hinting at on social media. Either way, these two need to get it together before that baby is born.

With just a week before the new drama “Star” premieres, Lee Daniels, the show’s co-creator, is opening up about the new series.

The television producer stopped by “The Real” to explain why he decided to cast a white woman as a lead character. Lee told the ladies he chose a white girl, played by Jude Demorest (below, middle), because he feels the “country needed to heal.”

“I thought that it was important to address race relations in America,” he explained.“We are truly, I believe, in a civil war. And I think that when we understand that we’re all one that [we will] then understand America. And America is still to be understood by us.”

 

He continued,“I think this white girl is so fabulous that black people will embrace her, and white people will embrace her.”

Set in Atlanta, "Star" is a drama that centers around three girls who are coming together to form a band and all the drama and conflict they encounter on their rise to the top.

Queen Latifah is set to play the owner of a beauty salon who will become like a “den mother” of some sort for the group. Naomi Campbell, Lenny Kravitz and Quincy Brown will also star in the series.

Switching gears a bit, Lee also revealed how he overcame racism to reach success.“If I embraced it, then it became real. And it is became real, then I would be an angry black man,” he shared.

Peep the clips below:
 

"Star" premieres December 14th at 9/8c on FOX.

“Empire” actress Gabourey Sidibe has finished writing her new memoir. She hopped on Twitter to express how excited she is now that she has finally finished writing it, when the cover will be released a few titles she tossed:

The Precious star will tell stories from her life that will delve into how she overcame depression, family issues and her rise to fame. It will be published through Houghton Mifflin Harcourt and it’s expected to be released in 2017. We have a feeling it's going to make us crack up AND cry.

“I’ve been writing since I was a child, and have always had so many stories to tell that are too long, shady and impolite to share in interviews,” she said in a press release. “It brings me much joy to add Published Writer to my resume of Actor and part-time Foot Model.”
 

Congrats Gabby!

You better claim your prince bae girl!  Things are heating up between Meghan Markle and her royal boyfriend Prince Harry. The British Royal made a detour during his Caribbean tour to visit her and photogs spotted Meghan rocking some personalized jewelry. Deets inside…

 

One thing is for sure, things are getting serious between actress Meghan Markle and her boyfriend Prince Harry.

After joining forces with Rihanna in Barbados, Prince Harry was scheduled to make his return to London after wrapping up his Caribbean tour. BUT, he made a very special detour to spend time with the woman he’s madly in love with.

The 32-year-old British royal was spotted leaving the “Suits” actress’ apartment in Toronto on Sunday after spending the day together. According to the Daily Mail, Prince Harry was scheduled to fly directly to London from Barbados. Well, he changed up his schedule and made a detour in Toronto to visit the 35-year-old actress. She’s in the city filming a new season of the legal drama “Suits.”

On Saturday, photogs spotted Meghan out and about in Toronto carrying a bouquet of flowers. And guess what? She was rocking a necklace with their initials. The YBF actress styled in a Maya Brenner asymmetrical letter necklace with the letters “M” and “H.” Mmhmm…

Peep the pic here. 

One of Meghan’s friends recently told PEOPLE she’s “head over heels” for Prince Harry. And that seems to be true. Despite all of the negative backlash Meghan and Harry have received since news broke that they are a couple, they don’t seem fazed by it all. And we’re happy for them. Do you boo.

21 Savage is still coming after Tyga on social media with the Kylie Jenner pettiness. Check out his latest antic and peep pics of Bow Wow and his daughter’s mom Joie Chavis all hugged up inside….

 

 photo sav1.png

The feud between rapper 21 Savage and Tyga is still going strong.

21 Savage has added more fuel to the fire with his latest social media antic. The Atlanta rapper changed his Instagram avatar picture to a photoshopped picture of Tyga’s girlfriend Kylie Jenner where she is seen sporting the rapper’s signature tattoo on her forehead. He ended up taking it down.

 photo sav2.png

Dude has a thing for Kylie and is trolling her boyfriend as he tries to “take” her from him.

Tyga and Savage have been exchanging shots on wax and on scoail media recently. Days ago, Savage posted up a sexy picture of Kylie with the caption, “shoutout to my boss b*tches wifing n*ggas.” Nicki Minaj caught wind of the post and posted a fire emoji in the comments.

Meanwhile, Kylie joined in a bit on the clapblack session. She posted up a video playing a diss track Tyga aimed at Savage that references him sucking d*ck for a Ferrari. That’s a reference to Drake gifting Savage a Ferrari. She also called him a “b*tch” in the comments on one of her fan pages.

This ish is so childish….

In coupledom news…
 

 photo boj2.png

Well look who’s all coupled up. It’s Bow Wow and his daughter’s mom Joie Chavis.

After a failed engagement and a fling with Keyshia Cole, it appears Bow wants that old thing back. The “CSI” actor and Joie were all hugged up together during the Thanksgiving holidays. Bow Wow posted a picture of them lounging around and captioned, “How we doing it on thanksgiving eve! We off that Deleon. Good looking @iamdiddy #happyprethanksgiving @joiechavis.”

 photo boj1.png

 

Yesterday, Joie shared a similar picture except this one included their daughter Shai Moss with family emojis in the caption. It almost looks like Shai could be getting a little brother or sister soon. So much for Bow going off about Joie being a gold digger...

Remember when he BLASTED her while she was dating Akon's brother Bu Thiam? Hmph.

Blac Chyna Releases Hot & UNbothered Pics After Kardashian Sisters TRIED IT. They Want To Stop Her Angela Kardashian Trademark.

 photo Screen Shot 2016-12-07 at 4.57.27 PM_zpsw4bwnstt.png

Listen, the future Mrs. Kardashian doesn't have time for her future sisters-in-law reindeer games.  Blac Chyna just released a bunch of gorgeous pics....just hours after news hit that the Kardashians are filing to stop her Angela Kardashian trademark.

Like many women, if not most, Blac Chyna plans to change her legal name to Angela Kardashian once she and fiance Rob walk down the aisle.  So, why is this a problem?

Well according to Khloe, Kim and Kourtney, Chyna associating with their name and brand could be problematic. So they filed paperwork to block her trademark.

Oh?!  Something tells us if the brand was born out of porn stardom and survived the drug emergencies and sexcapades its survived amongst the three sisters, Chyna should be the least of their worries.  She's not bringing anywhere near that type of baggage to the table.  Hmph.

But we digress.  The site states:

According to docs obtained by TMZ ... Kim, Khloe, and Kourtney's companies are opposing Chyna's request to trademark "Angela Renee Kardashian" -- which she was trying to lock down for use while working in entertainment, and also on social media.

The mean girls sisters throw down the gauntlet in docs, saying if Chyna gets the trademark they'll "suffer damage including irreparable injury to their reputation and goodwill."

....

Make no mistake ... this is nasty. In the docs, they say Chyna is "deliberately seeking to profit from the goodwill and popularity" of the Kardashian name.

 

"Irreparable injury to your reputation?"  Laughable at best.  (And we did laugh.  Loudly.)

 photo Screen Shot 2016-12-07 at 4.57.15 PM_zpsbllhhhvs.png

Meanwhile, Chyna just released theses gorgeous hot shots.  And the self-made true started-from-the-bottom fiance is putting folks on notice she's coming to secure the bag. 

 

 

This new MAC Ambassador campaign included.  Work!

Mom Of “Honey Bun Baby” SPEAKS Out – Says She Had No Idea How People Got Pics Of Her Son, But She’s Embracing His Social Media Fame

 photo honeybun.jpg

An adorable little boy dubbed Honey Bun Baby has gone viral. And now, his mother is speaking out about his social media fame. More inside…

If you’ve been active on social media lately, you may have come across a few memes that feature Honey Bun Baby.

Ashton Howell, a 22-month old boy from Alabama, has been stealing our hearts and giving us laughs as the newest viral meme baby.

But get this…

His mother, Ariel Griggs, had NO idea how people were even getting pictures of her son because the pictures that were floating around she didn’t even have in her possession.

"My first thought was, 'How did they get my baby's pictures? I mean, I don't have these pictures,'" Ariel tells AL.com.

"I'm thinking, 'Let's report it,'” says the tax agency owner and mother-of-two. “You know, pictures are very intimate to me, very private. But it got to the point where it was like wildfire. You couldn't stop it. I was very anxious and worried about his safety."

After racking her brain on who could have taken the photos, she finally realized it was her 18-year-old brother Steven Small, who is a freshman at UC Berkeley. He babysat little Ashton frequently before heading off to college and had tons of pics of the tot.

"He thought it was funny to dress Ashton up, putting his 'little' big head in caps and stuff and taking pictures of him. I found out he has tons of pictures of Ashton on Instagram. I guess people just thought his pictures were cute and went from there," she says.

She continues,"I'm kind of leery of social media. I kinda think that my brother set this up as a ploy to get more followers on Instagram, but he hasn't admitted, yet."

 

However, Ariel is concerned about some of the more vulgar memes that feature her son. "After Thanksgiving, I'm starting to see more that are the crazy ones. The last couple memes I've seen, they've been a little X-rated. I don't want people looking at my baby's picture and thinking of stuff like that!"

Ariel says she plans to keep raising him like she always has and hasn’t let his viral fame go to her head…or his. He doesn’t even know what’s going on.

"I see that they call him 'Honey Bun Baby,'" Ariel says. "I thought that was so funny. People have been asking if I can have another child and name him 'Cinnamon Roll.'"

Peep a few of the funny Honey Bun Baby memes below:

Charlamagne Tha God Gives Himself “Donkey Of The Day” For Tomi Lahren Tweets, BUT Seemingly Blames Everyone Else For Not Understanding

 photo cdonkey.jpg

Charlamagne tha God became a trending topic on Twitter last night after he fired off a few controversial tweets following his meet up with conservative pundit Tomi Lahren. Find out what he said inside…

Power 105 personality Charlamagne tha God had Twitter on FIRE last night after firing off a few controversial tweets.

To bring you up to speed, last week Charlamagne met up with conservative pundit Tomi Lahren after her interview with Trevor Noah on “The Daily Show.” Tomi was originally scheduled to appear on “The Breakfast Club,” but Charlamagne tweeted that her team decided against it, so she never made it. BUT, he did meet up with her to chat.

 photo cdonkey2.png

Yesterday, Charlamagne hopped on Twitter and tweeted a series of tweets that suggested that black women should follow the same blueprint that made Tomi famous.

“Would be dope if a young black or Hispanic liberal used social media to create a platform to be a voice like Tomi Lahren did,” he wrote.

Minutes later, he came back and tweeted,“Would be dope if a young black or Hispanic ‘WOKE’ woman used social media to create a Platform to be a voice like Tomi Lahren did.”

Black Twitter didn’t waste any time to light into his a**. So, he gave himself “Donkey of the Day” during the morning radio show this morning.

Clarifying what he was tweeting last night, he said people misunderstood what he was trying to say in his tweets.

“I wasn’t saying anyone should be like Tomi Lahren,” he said. “I’m simply saying we should build an online news platform. I feel we need a young, liberal, minority voice for the left.”

The radio personality said someone should USE social media to create the platform. The platform would be the online news network and use social media to push it…like Tomi did.

He said he would take the “L” after acknowledging that there are several African-American women with credible voices on platforms such as Twitter and Tumblr.

Charlamagne said folks hit him up on Twitter to inform him of the plethora of online news networks, including The Advise Show in Houston, Franchesca Ramsey with “MTV Decoded,” and The Last Name Basis podcast.

Also, Charlamagne said he’s willing to assist any woman of color to help push their online news platform.

Take a listen below:

Peep his tweets below:

 

 

 

 

 

Thoughts?

Since we're an online platform that's been around for over 10 years, we have plenty to say about this, but not even sure we have the energy to address this because our thoughts exceed the Twitter character count. So, check back with us and we may respond.

‘Loving’ Actress Ruth Negga Flosses In Florals For First VOGUE Cover + Vanessa Williams & Jillian Hervey Serve #MotherDaughterGoals For ESSENCE

Actress Ruth Negga nabs her very first VOGUE cover and the first one of 2017. Go inside to peep her gorgeous spread a few highlights from her cover story, plus the Vanessa Williams and Jillian Hervey’s fabulous mother-daughter ESSENCE cover inside…

 photo lessence10.png

Ruth Negga stars as Mildred Loving in the newly released romantic drama Loving. It tells the story of Richard and Mildred Loving, an interracial couple, whose challenge of their anti-miscegenation arrest for their marriage in Virginia led to a legal battle that would end at the US Supreme Court.

The Irish-Ethiopian actress graces the cover of VOGUE for the very first time for the magazine’s January 2017 issue. Yep, she landed the first VOGUE cover of the new year.

Inside, the YBF actress opens up about being biracial and she fiercely defends her identity.

“People have always made assumptions about me,” she says. “I become very territorial about my identity because it’s been hijacked by so many people, with their own projections.” Understandably, she doesn’t want to be pinned down, reserving the right to change her mind, about herself or anything else. “I don’t trust anyone who doesn’t change their mind,” she says.

Ruth was born in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, to a white Irish nurse and a black Ethiopian doctor who’d met at Black Lion Hospital. By the age of 4, Ruth and her mother moved to Ireland due to political violence broke and waited for her father to join them. Unfortunately, that never happened.

“We were going to go to America,” Ruth share, “but my dad didn’t get out in time.” Three years later, her father died in a car accident. “We found out in a letter and a phone call. This was 1988. There wasn’t any grief counseling for kids.”

Ruth shares her mother never encountered any prejudice from being in an interracial marriage.“My mum never experienced that—I mean, never,” she shares.

While growing up in County Limerick, Ruth says she never felt different from any of her Irish family members, but began to experience racism is some form as she got older. 

“I remember thinking, I’m just me. When you’re a kid, you’re just you, aren’t you? It was when I moved to England that I felt it, because I was Irish and black.” She was eleven. She was eventually drawn to Toni Morrison, Maya Angelou, James Baldwin—none of them obvious influences for a girl from rural Ireland. “I didn’t have that many black people in my life, so I had to sort of search them out,” she says. “And I didn’t grow up in America, but I identified as much with their writing about the black experience as I did with their writing about the human experience.”

 

So, that's one way she was able to learn about black culture in America. 

You can read the rest of Ruth’s interview over at VOGUE. In the meantime, take a peek at her gorgeous spread below:

Mother-daughter goals!

Singer/actress Vanessa Willimas and her daughter Jillian Harvey, ½ of Lionbabe, grace the cover of ESSENCE magazine’s January 2017 issue.

 photo lessence1.jpeg

27-year-old Jillian (who nabbed a solo cover) is following in the footsteps of her famous (and equally beautiful) 53-year-old mother as she makes her own mark in the music industry.

Inside, the mother-daughter duo dish on advice Jillian has received from her mother, having a strong work ethic and their hair and beauty goals for the new year.

ESSENCE caught up with Vanessa in Atlanta while shooting scenes for Star Jones’ upcoming series Daytime Divas series. Vanessa dropped a few gems on how to survive a setback and finding love again.

On surviving a setback: “You have to go through the fire. Avoiding the pain is why most people never resolve it. You have to dig deep, sit in it and ugly-cry. Pretending it’s not there and keeping busy are a way of avoiding it.”

On finding love again: “[Marrying Jim Skrip] it was one of those easy, easy things. It was fantastic.” But being a nurturing mother has been one of Williams’ top priorities too.

 

You can check out Vanessa and Jillian’s full interviews when the issue drops this Friday, December 9th.

 photo Lessence23.jpg

She rocked a Namilia motocross tracksuit jacket, distressed Balmain jeans topped with a VETEMENTS shearling leather jacket, Timberland boots and a Louis Vuitton Twisted Box handbag.

 photo RihFur1.jpg

The night before, the “Work” singer got all dressed up for dinner at the Spotted Pig in the West Village to munch on some British & Italian eats. The 28-year-old singer, who’s up for 8 GRAMMY Awards this year, was dressed for the cold weather in a Burberry shearling jacket, wide leg Céline pants, gold Haider Ackerman booties and her favorite Louis Vuitton Twisted Box handbag.

Meanwhile on social media....

 

 

After the Grammy Award nominations were announced, fans got busy to stir up some drama between Rihanna and Beyonce. A Rihanna fan page posted up a picture of Rihanna in her Kadooment Day attire with a caption that insinuated Beyonce was favored over Rih.

The caption reads, "Congrats and all to @badgalriri and all for her 8 Grammy nods but tbh fuck them because they snubbed her for Song of the Year and Album of the Year. Like how my nigga!? I think they didn't want her tied or passing someone else *cough cough* [lemon emoji]. Cause if they wouldn't have played her she would have been in the lead with most Grammy nods. Fuck u Grammys, ANTI did amazing things this year and y'all played her. I think y'all shook!

Rih liked the post and that caused a frenzy in the comments section between the NAVY and the Beyhive. After Rih caught wind of the drama, she hopped in the comments section to clear up the misunderstanding. She wrote:
 

 photo rihcomment.jpg

I never actually read your caption, thought the pic was funny and moved right along! Til I seen it pop up over and over! I'm petty af, yes. But this is just unnecessary! I wish y'all would drop this topic and see things from the bigger picture! We don't need to be putting black women against each other! We deserve to be celebrated, and the Grammy Academy agrees!

No beef there.

Rapper Waka Flocka and his wife “Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta” star Tammy Rivera are keeping the relationship hot after briefly breaking up over the summer.

The couple went out to dinner at Catch restaurant and then hit up the Staples Center to check out the Lakers vs. Rockets game at the Staples Center. 

 photo lessence21.jpg

The swimsuit designer, who’s featured in the newest Bleu Bombshell magazine, came under fire recently when she tried to justify her husband’s alleged cheating ways. In the interview, she said she decided to stay and work on their marriage because it’s hard to find REAL love. She said she thinks its weak of a woman to up and leave her man who has decided to change his ways for the sake of his family. She spilled,

"So, my mom always told me– you can find a man who can financially take care of you, you can find a man who might not be a cheater, might have it all together, might of grew up with a father in their household, but it’s hard to find real love and a person who genuinely loves you and who is willing to change, my husband was willing to change for his family. So why would I give up on my husband. I’m not that type, I think that’s weak of a woman to do that. It’s easier to walk away as opposed to than to speaking up! No we’re going to fight for this we got married. My family is worth fighting for.”

Folks went IN on Tammy on social media, so she decided to respond. After the backlash, she said the magazine “switched up her words.." Either way, she's not leaving Waka anytime soon. 

By the way, Tammy announced she's getting a breast reduction in the year.

Kobe and Vanessa Bryant are the proud parents of their third baby girl. More inside…

Baby Mamba is here!

Retired NBA legend Kobe Bryant and his wife Vanessa Bryant have welcomed their third bundle of joy. And it’s another girl for the Bryants.

We learned the Bryants (above at their baby shower in September) were expecting over the summer shortly after Kobe announced he was retiring from the NBA and now she’s here. It’s unclear exactly what day she was born, but TMZ reports she was born this week in Orange County.

The little one will join her big sisters Natalia and Gianna to round out the trio. Black Mamba will be in super daddy-mode as he has more extra time on his hands since retiring from the NBA after an incredible 20 years in the game.

Whew! Kobe is going to have his hands full. 

Congrats to the couple!
