SPOILER ALERT! Here’s Sanaa Lathan's Line In 'Shots Fired' That FOX Said Was Too Risqué For TV

0

 photo sanaalike.jpg

So, we’ve got the scoop on the line in the upcoming “Shots Fired” series that had FOX (and everybody) clutching their pearls. Find out inside…

The cast and crew of “Shots Fired” are still busy on the promo trail as the show’s stars and creators brought a screening of their new FOX series to the Paley Center for Media in NYC last night.

The fab folks answered questions during a Q&A moderated by Associated Press editor Nekesa Moody.

 photo sf7.jpg

TheYBF.com was in the mix and believe us, this show is GOODT.

We were wondering how they got away with what they got away with, but we learned Fox put the kibosh on at least one line in the 10-hour movie (Director Reggie says we can't call them episodes!).

SPOILER ALERT!

Without giving away too much, Sanaa Lathan’s character Ash, who is a Dept. of Justice investigator, gets into a HEATED argument (we damn near stood up and clapped for the way Sanaa's character DRAGGED her) with her ex and her ex’s new boo over the child Ash and her ex share.

When Ash and her ex made it outside, she tells dude the ultimate line every woman wants to tell their ex.

“Does she know that when you’re inside of her, I’m inside your head?!”

Bloop!

 photo sf8.jpg

Same, Tristan.

Apparently, the line was a bit too much for FOX execs because the show’s co-creator Gina Prince-Bythewood revealed they wanted it taken out of the episode. It’s unclear if the line will stay in by the time premiere night rolls around.

By the way, you'll see Sanaa like we’ve never seen her before. She’s a bad a**, super edgy investigator who gives zero f*cks. And we like it.

The YBF actress -- who starred in Gina's breakout movie Love & Basketball -- was definitely the muse behind Gina’s character she created, and she talked about it a little during the Q&A panel after the screening:

These are “The Breaks!” Sinqua Walls, Mack Wilds and Antoine Harris dish to us about who their fantasy music collaboration would consist of and they serve up the throwback feels name dropping a few musical icons. Find out who they are and more inside…

This one is for the Hip Hop heads.

VH1 just premiered its new Hip Hop series “The Breaks,” starring sexy a** Sinqua Wells (fans self), Mack Wilds and Antoine Harris. And TheYBF.com got the chance to chop it up with the hotties about their musical icons.

YBF correspondent James Terrell sat down with the fellas and asked them if they had the opportunity to work with any artist (dead or alive) who would it be? It’s only right since they're starring in the hit Hip Hop-based show.

The YBF stars’ answers definitely took us back, reminding us of some of our throwback faves. Also, Sinqua says why shooting this was way better than shooting "Power."

Samuel L. Jackson was in rare form on “Watch What Happens Live” last night. Check it inside…

To say Samuel L. Jackson was funny on “Watch What Happens Live” last night would be an understatement. He was in rare form, alongside actress Allison Williams, and had us cracking up the entire episode.

The Oscar nominated actor, who stars in the newly released KONG: Skull Island, talked about everything from how he handles an erection during a sex scene, Donald Trump and that time he got caught eyeing one of Beyonce’s dancers’ booties during the 2016 BET Awards.

Oh, he also dished on the least sexiest thing about Halle Berry and working with Jamie Foxx in Django. He also clapped back at Donald Trump after he tweeted that Sam was a boring actor who only does commercials.

Get it all below:

Karlie Redd & Ceasar are in full on bae-mode.  Pics from their night out with K.Michelle & Trina inside....

After constant flirting on IG, these two are pretty much on couple-status.  Apparently.

Star of "Black Ink" Ceasar Emmanuel seems to have hopped on the Karlie Redd train.  This chick keeps a warm VH1 body next to her right?  Well, so does Ceasar truth be told.

He told TheYBF.com he was open to dating again after the big Dutchess break up, and clearly he wasn't lying.  Last night, Ceasar and "LAHH: ATL" star Karlie were all boo'd up at K.Michelle's birthday party at Gold Room in Atlanta.  Hmph.  And he's made it clear she's his woman of the moment:

 

Happy international women's day

We all know J.Lo never stays single for long.  And neither does former MLB playboy Alex Rodriguez, apparently.  Just days after news broke about their new romance, the two are already on baecay.  Pics and deets inside...

They're both 40-something, both have reached the peak of their careers, are both super rich, and both have kids.  So it seems J-Rod would be magic in the making, right?  We'll see...

Just days after their brand new spring fling was confirmed (Drake who?), Jennifer and A-Rod were spotted kicking back on a yacht in the Bahamas late last night.

 

She's been seen leaving heart emojis underneath his Instagram pics....so they're damn near IG official.

The twosome are currently heating up Great Guana Cay in the Abaco islands right off the Florida coast.  Both have home sin Miami so it's just a hop, skip and a jump to paradise.

Page Six reports:

The couple flew by private jet from Miami to Marsh Harbour on Friday night. At 9:30 p.m., they arrived at Harbour View Marina, where they were caught getting cozy on a power boat en route to their sequestered love nest.

J-Rod are spending the weekend alone at a friend’s home, according to a source familiar with their tropical canoodling.

“It’s early days, but Jennifer and Alex are really into each other,” the source said.

The super luxe location is where Michael Jordan, Tom Brady and wife Gisele Bündchen and more often vacay. Must be nice.

46-year-old Jennifer, who's currently starring on NBC's "Shades of Blue," and 41-year-old Alex have reportedly been dating for a few months, but A-Rod was dating his now-ex girlfriend Anne Wojcicki at least until this past December.  They were just walking the red carpet together at a NASA event three months ago:

Hmph. 

Fun fact, Jenny met A-Rod back in 2004 at a Yankees game...when she was with ex husband Marc Anthony:

How sweet! Beyoncé, her mom Tina and Blue Ivy (not pictured) visited the Alvin Ailey Dance Company when it rolled into L.A. last night.  And the Knowles ladies gave them a surprise of a lifetime.

The Alvin Ailey Dance Company tour rolled into Dorothy Chandler Pavillion at the LA Music Center last night.  Beyoncé was front and center to support her fellow professional dancers.  Her mom Tina Knowles had her Tina's Angels teen mentees with them, so they all surprised the dancers backstage after the show:

Hmmm. Tyra Banks Speaks On Being The New 'AGT' Host

Tyra Banks is officially the new host of "America's Got Talent" Season 12.  But are we here for that?  Deets inside...

Listen, we're always here for YBF folks getting new gigs.  But we can't even front and say we think this is the move.

After much buzz about who would replace Nick Cannon as the host of "America's Got Talent," NBC announced Tyra Banks landed the gig.

Yep, TyTy.

She wasn't even in the running according to previous reports from certain sources like TMZ who said the shortlist was three black comedians.  They even said Brandon Mychal Smith was about to sign on the dotted line.

Not so much.  Enter Tyra.

Veteran judge Howie Mandel made the announcement last night on social media saying:

 

And then they went on with this:

Chile...

Tyra said in a statement:

“Since I was a little girl, I’ve been obsessed with grandiose acts and performers who make the seemingly impossible possible,” Banks said. “I love how AGT brings that feeling into everyone’s home, capturing the best of people who come out and give it their all to make those big, fierce and outrageous dreams come true.”

 

AMERICA'S GOT TALENT'S cray new host right here! @nbcagt

A post shared by Tyra Banks (@tyrabanks) on

Hmm. While she's gorgeous and the ultimate businesswoman, we just don't see it for Tyra as an actually funny, light hearted variety show host. Loved her as the HBIC of "ANTM" and even liked her on both of her talk shows. But this...

WE’LL ALWAYS LOVE BIG POPPA! Diddy, Faith Evans, Lil Kim & More Celebrate Notorious B.I.G. With Jersey Retirement At Barclays

On the 20th anniversary of Notorious B.I.G.’s death, his family and friends celebrated his legacy at the Barclays Center. Salute the musical icon inside…

"Brooklyn We Did It!"

It’s hard to believe it’s been 20 years since rap icon Notorious B.I.G. passed away. On the anniversary of his death, his closest friends and family members honored the late rapper in his hometown at the Barclays Center.

 photo bigd2.png

During halftime of the Nets vs. Knicks, Diddy, Faith Evans, Lil Kim, Biggie’s mom Voletta Wallace, his children T’yanna and CJ Wallace, Big’s right hand man Damion “D-Roc” Butler, and Biggie's managers Wayne Barrow and Mark Pitts took center court for the touching ceremony during “Biggie Night.”

The Nets unveiled a Biggie jersey that was lifted in the rafters with the No. 72, commemorating the year he was born. Diddy did the honor saying,

"We are humbled and honored to be here. This week was the 20th anniversary of the greatest rapper of all-time, Notorious B.I.G. From Brooklyn, New York. From Brooklyn, New York! We celebrate and his passing...Tonight is 'Biggie Night.' Usually we do a moment of silence. But in honor of Biggie being from Brooklyn-- He always said 'spread love the Brooklyn way'--I would like to get 10 seconds of Brooklyn noise."

So, Someone Thought It Would Be A Good Idea To Give O.J. Simpson A Post-Prison Reality Show

0

 photo ojshow.jpg

Are you ready for an O.J. Simpson reality show? Whether you’re ready or not, it could be coming to a TV near you soon. Details inside…

Just when you thought you’ve heard it all, THIS happens.

There’s news that O.J. Simpson could land his own reality show if he’s released from jail this year. No, we’re not making this ish up. The former NFL star could be released from prison as early as October and supposedly producers are gearing up for his release to nab him for a new reality show.

TMZ said they have reached out to several reality TV producers, TV agents and platforms about the possibility of the show and they received mixed reactions. Some people found it “disgusting” that he would be featured on a new reality show, while others are jumping at the opportunity.

Of course, no one wanted their name to be used as it’s obviously a touchy subject.

With the new found interest in O.J. since the award winning miniseries“The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story” and the Oscar-winning documentary “O.J.: Made In America,” it comes at no surprise that folks are still trying to capitalize off of his infamy.

By the way, O.J. is currently serving a 33-year prison sentence after he was found guilty of armed robbery and kidnapping in 2008. So far, he has served 9 years of his sentence, and if a pivotal parole hearing goes his way, he’ll likely be out this fall.

Are you here for a post-prison O.J. Simpson reality show?

Sister-brother takeover! Tamera Mowry’s younger brother Tahj Mowry joined her to guest co-host on “The Real.” Get into their sibling love, plus the latest on Azealia Banks’ legal woes inside….

He will forever be “Smart Guy” in our eyes. And he’ll always be Tia & Tamera Mowry’s little brother. We’re not saying that’s all he is. You get the point. Tahj Mowry is the kid we grew up watching on several of our favorite TV shows as kids.

 photo tahj2.jpg

Today, Tahj joined his big sister Tamera Mowry at work!

The “Baby Daddy” star guest “bro-hosted” on “The Real” with his sister and it certainly brought back old TV memories. Remember when he starred in Seventeen Again alongside his sisters? He also had a recurring role on his sisters’ hit series “Sister, Sister” as well. We know y'all remember. "Sister, Sister" was the shizit back in the day.

 photo tahj4.jpg

Now, he's all grown up.

On the show, the YBF actor and his sister gushed about Tamera’s daughter Ariah and how perfect of an uncle Tahj really is. He’s the only one in the family that Ariah doesn’t give the side eye to. Ha!

Peep the clip below:

Too cute.

Tahj's episode airs today. Check your local listings for the time.

In legal woes...

 photo ABA1.jpg

Azealia Banks is currently fighting a criminal case after she was accused of biting a female bouncer’s boob outside of a club in NYC after she was thrown out back in December 2015. She’s facing assault and harassment charges for the incident.

 photo Abanks3.jpg

Before her day in court for those charges, prosecutors are airing out some of her previous arrests. And, it’s shocking. According to the NY Daily News, the Harlem native sliced her sister with a box cutter in the “neck, the arm and the hand.” Sheesh!

“This is a case where she slashed her sister in the neck, the arm and the hand with a box cutter,” Assistant DA Shae Donato told the NY Daily News.

According to reports, the “212” rapper pleaded guilty to attempted assault, but avoided harsh punishment due to her age. (FYI—She would have been about 17-18 years-old at the time of the incident.) Prosecutors are hoping to use the April 2009 incident with her sister against her when she takes the witness stand (possibly) next week.

Of course, prosecutors brought up her run in with a bouncer in L.A., although those charges were later dismissed. And they didn’t forget to bring up that situation with Russell Crowe back in October where she claimed she was verbally attacked. Witnesses on the scene said otherwise.

Assistant DA Shae Donato is hoping to use her alleged violent past to impeach her on credibility. A. Banks’ Jess Berkowitz said she will be testifying in her own defense at her trial.

Damn homie. Maybe Trump can help her get out of this one...

Kordell Stewart Wins Multi-Million Dollar Lawsuit Against Andrew ‘Delivert’ Caldwell + Arrest Made In Toya Wright's Brothers' Murder Case

Welp! Kordell Stewart won that multi-million lawsuit he fired against YouTube sensation Andrew “Delivert” Caldwell. Will he ever see that money though? Plus, there's been a major break in the case of Toya Wright's brothers' murders. More inside….

Former NFL star Kordell Stewart is celebrating a legal victory. He won $3 million in a judgment brought against YouTube star Andrew “Delivert” Caldwell after Andrew publicly admitted to hopping in bed with Kordell. He told anyone who would listen that he and Kordell experienced a fling together. Now, he has to pay up.

According to The Grio, Kordell was awarded a default judgement since Andrew failed to appear in court. On Friday, a judge awarded Kordell $3 million-- $1.5 million in general damages and $1.5 million in punitive damages. Kordell was initially gunning for $4.5 million for loss of earnings, emotional distress and damage to his reputation. Kordell has remained adamant that he and Andrew NEVER dated or had sex.

Although Andrew issued an apology and publicly retracted his statements about Kordell, he still defended his allegations at other times. In one statement, Andrew said “should he be properly served by a court with jurisdiction, he welcomes the opportunity to detail, under oath, his sexual encounter with Mr. Stewart.”

Hmm…we wonder why he was a no show in court.

Either way, the judge has made his decision. The real question now is… will Andrew ever come up with the large sum of money to settle the matter? Time will tell.

Meanwhile, Andrew has been posting subliminals via his Facebook page:

Thoughts?

Toya Wright has definitely had a tough several months. Now, she's finally getting justice for the murders of her two brothers (left and top, above), Joshua and Ryan "Rudy" Johnson, that occured last July in New Orleans.

31-year-old Antoine Edwards was booked on March 9 with two counts of second-degree murder in connection with the deaths of the two young men in the 7th ward of New Orleans.

According to Nola.com, the arrest was made thanks to witnesses who spoke up:

The warrant said Edwards was identified as the suspect with those nicknames and that "several witnesses" picked his photo from lineups.

The warrant says Edwards was identified as being "in the area during the time the incident occurred and as the subject who produced a firearm and shot the victims in this incident."

No word yet on the alleged killer's motive, but apparently he admitted to others that he was the shooter.  Edwards' bond is set at $500,000 and he is due back in court May 7.

Toya told media,"All we want is justice for my brothers .. We thank everyone for their prayers and support."

Tristan Thompson brought in his 26th birthday with his girlfriend Khloe Kardashian amid rumors that he’s cheating on her with his child’s mother Jordan Craig. More inside…

Y’all know how Khloe Kardashian likes to throw parties for her men. So, it comes as no surprise she went all out for her current boo Tristan Thompson.

The reality star threw the Cleveland Cavaliers baller a lavish gold themed birthday bash complete with gold decorations, gold Kit Kat bars, personalized gold napkins and gold icing donuts.

Check out the SnapChat clips Khloe shared below:

On Sunday, Tristan made his first appearance on the family’s reality show “Keeping Up With The Kardashians.” Tristan tagged along with Khloe on a family trip to Mexico to meet the Kardashian Klan. The twosome have been dating since August 2016.

While things appear to be peachy keen between the two, there are rumors that Tristan is cheating on Khloe with his ex-girlfriend/son’s mother Jordan Craig (above). A source tells OK! Magazine, “Tristan has been juggling both women this whole time. Whenever he goes to Jordan’s he says it’s only to see the baby, but he’s still sleeping with her. It’s the perfect cover up.”

Can't say it would be that hard to believe.  He DID meet and get with Khloe while he was with Jordan (literally while he was with her, and she was pregnant, at Kevin Hart & Eniko's wedding).  Hmph.

Khloe has reportedly been telling people that things are quite serious between her and Tristan, so if these rumors are true…Bloop!

Tyler Perry’s Dad Almost DIED In House Fire + Steve Harvey Now Has 24/7 Security After Miss Universe Debacle

In unfortunate news, Tyler Perry’s dad’s house was destroyed by a house fire leaving him homeless. Get those details, plus why Steve Harvey had to hire around-the-clock security inside…

The man Tyler Perry calls dad almost died in a house fire after his Louisiana home went up in flames on Monday night. Emmitt Perry, who isn’t Tyler’s biological father but raised him, said he could have died in the massive blaze had he been asleep.

He told WBRZ, "I heard something popping in the attic. I went upstairs and let the [attic] stairs down. I couldn't smell any smoke. I didn't see anything burning. I then went to call the fire department, and my daughter was coming in the gate. And she said, 'I already called them.'"

Glad they made it out safely.

It took about 50 firefighters to end the blaze, leaving Emmitt homeless. Tyler had the home built for his late mother and after she died, his father still lived in the home. The house is a total loss. We're sure Tyler will make sure he's well taken care of.

Peep footage of the flames (that could be seen from 20 miles away) below:

Steve Harvey is opening up about the after math of the huge 2015 Miss Universe debacle when he mistakenly named the wrong winner for the beauty pageant.

In an interview with Cigar Aficionado inside the April issue, the “Family Feud” host explained how people were sending death threats and why he had to get around-the-click security.

“I live on a dead-end street — and it got real when things started coming over the gate. Empty boxes with bows and pictures of bombs,” he recalled. "And these with death threats on social media that would pop up from fake IP addresses. I wound up with 24-hour armed security at my house. I have two armed guards there full-time to this day.”

The 60-year-old entertainer said he’s welcomed with open arms in the Philippines, but he wouldn’t dare go to Colombia anytime soon.

“In the Philippines, they love me — but I can’t go to Colombia,” he said. "The next morning, there was this massive crowd, all around my car outside the hotel—all these Colombians giving me hell. My Twitter and Instagram blew up and I got called every name in the book. I got cussed out in Spanish so bad that I know profanity in Spanish now.”

Funny, but not funny.

Birthday Girl Tamar Braxton Adresses That ‘Love Child’ Rant on 'Wendy', Shades The Hell Out Of ‘The Real’

Tamar Braxton and her now slim and trim husband Vince Herbert made a stop on the “Wendy Williams Show” today where Tamar explains why she went on that social media rant about Vince’s alleged love child. She also threw tons of shade at her former “The Real” co-hosts.” Get it all inside….

Tamar Braxton, who turns 40 this week, pulled down the leaves on a huge palm tree casting extra shade during her appearance on the “Wendy Williams Show” this morning alongside her husband Vince Herbert.

First, we want to point out that Vince revealed he has lost almost 90lbs. He started out weighing 315lbs and has dropped to 230lbs. And he looks amazing! Congrats Vince on the weight loss.

Now, on to Tae Tae.

The “Braxton Family Values” star explained why she went on a full out rant on social media over Vince’s alleged love child. Tamar claims a woman came out publicly claiming she slept with Vince on the night before their wedding and ended up giving birth to his daughter. You’ll recall, Tamar fired off a lengthy Instagram post to address the alleged “love child,” basically saying if Vince had a child, she would accept that child into their family fold.

The mother of the child who's picture Tamar posted hopped on social media accusing her of FAKING the entire story. Hmph.

So, why was she acting a fool on social media? “Girl! I felt like my character was tried,” she said.

While Wendy steered clear of asking her “friend” about the domestic violence incident that resulted in a 911 call, Tamar did speak on the ups and downs she and Vince have gown through over the last year.

“We’ve been through a lot in this past year and it did nothing but bring our relationship closer. I’m not going to sit here and act like we don’t argue, we don’t fight. We work together, it’s a lot of things to disagree about. But, I think that we have come to the point where we know this is where we’re supposed to be.”

Hmph.

The R&B singer also threw some shade at her former “The Real” co-hosts. Tamar admitted she hasn’t spoke to any of them, but she did see Tamera Mowry Housley’s twin sister Tia Mowry. She said she saw Tia at the airport. Wendy asked her what did she say, Tamar responded, “I said HI” then rolled her neck. Wendy then asked What do you say when you see Adrienne [Bailon]?”

Tamar explained,“I don’t see Adrienne. God is good, Hallelujah.”

She then said she doesn’t have beef with any of the ladies. “The only person I’m beefing with is the devil,” she added.

Girl...

Blac Chyna just released her new commercial for her Lashed Cosmetics line, but folks are claiming she jacked the concept from her nemesis Kylie Jenner. Go figure. More inside…

Blac Chyna just unveiled an advertisement to promote her Lashed Cosmetics line. Now, the internets are dissecting the commercial making claims that Chyna’s storyline is very similar to an ad for Chyna's ex-fiance's girlfriend Kylie Jenner’s new lip glosses (that she released last year).

In both clips, there’s some type of heist going on over their cosmetic lines and they both appear in the ads as the “HBIC.” There are fight scenes in both ads and they both have an all-girl squad to handle the dirty work. Hmm…

Check out both of their ads below and see if you see the similarities:
