Celebs hit the stage for the fourth annual TIDAL X Brooklyn benefit concert, including performances by Lil Wayne, Lauryn Hill, Teyana Taylor, Meek Mill and several more inside...

Last night, some of Hip Hop's biggest acts pulled up at the Barclays Center for the fourth annual TIDAL X Brooklyn benefit concert. Each year, the music streaming platform rounds up artists for a star-studded line-up of performances to help raise funds for a good cause.

This year, fans were able to donate to several criminal justice nonprofits, such as #Cut50, Equal Justice Initiative, the Innocence Project, and REFORM.

Kicking off the show, Teyana Taylor opened the show with a red hot performance of "Rose In Harlem," backed with a bevy of dancers to bring the dramatics. It's no wonder TIDAL tapped Teyana to open the show because chick never disappoints when she hits a stage.

Peep clips from her performance below:

After being awarded with the I Am Hip Hop Award during the 2018 BET Hip Hop Awards, Lil Wayne made his way on stage to perform his track "Uproar," a cut from his recently released Carter V album, for the first time. He also performed "Mona Lisa" and "Dedicate."

Well look who made it.

Lauryn Hill was tapped as a headliner for the benefit concert and she actually showed up and seemingly on time.

No need to come for us in the comments. We still love her.  And it's well documented how L. Boogie will show up extremely late or not at all for concerts. We're happy she made it to this one. 

Check out her performance below:

Hip Hop's criminal justice reform leader Meek Mill was in the building to get the crowd hype.

He kicked off his performance with his hit "Dreams and Nightmares," and closed his performance by inviting fans on stage to do their best Milly Rock. Not too long ago on social media, Meek made a video asking people to teach him how to do it because basically, he sucks at it. On a more serious note, the Philly native held a moment of silence for anyone in the crowd who had lost someone close to them to gun violence or wrongful imprisonment.

Peep a clip of Meek turning up below:

Nostalgic feels!

Lil Kim and The LOX reunited on stage to perform their 1997 classic hit, "It's All About the Benjamins" and everyone old enough to remember lost it, of course.

The LOX also celebrated the 20th anniversary of their hit album Money, Power & Respect.

Power 105 radio personality Angie Martinez and CNN's Angela Rye talked about prison reform and shared some stories from young, black men who had suffered at the hands of the justice system.

“These stories have a common theme. They remind us that the need for cj reform can touch us in many different ways. And that’s why we need #reform.” @angela_rye and @angiemartinez share stories of three young men with us tonight impacted by our broken system.#TIDALXBROOKLYNpic.twitter.com/TqGfmj9GkY

QUEEN directress Ava DuVernay took center stage to honor an icon of the global equality movement/olympian Tommie Smith. He's one of the black men who raised a fist (alongside John Carlos) to protest racial injustice and inequality during the 1968 Summer Olympics.

On the carpet...

Several folks who performed also hit the carpet, including Normani, Meek Mill, Too Short, Fat Joe, The LOX, Angie Martinez, Angela Rye and Anderson.Paak.

Rapper Kodak Black (ummm...) and pregnat singer/YouTuber Queen Naija also hit the carpet before they hit the stage to perform.

Other red carpet folks included CNN's Van Jones (co-founder of #cut50), Mint Swim honcho Draya, Shiggy, singer Elle Varner (where's she been hiding?!), iced out rapper Moneybagg Yo and Rap Radar's/TIDAL podcasters Brian "B.Dot" Miller and Elliott Wilson also made their way down the carpet:

There are rumors that Queen Latifah and her rumored longtime girlfriend Eboni Nichols are engaged and are expecting a baby! Deets inside...

Well this is exciting, if true.

Word on the curb is that Queen Latifah and her rumored longtime girlfriend/choreographer Eboni Nichols are starting a family together. RadarOnline is reporting that Queen's girlfriend is pregnant and she was spotted with a full baby bump earlier this month.

"This will be the first child for Latfiah," a source told the site.

While speaking on a panel at the Television Critics Association crowd in August 2017, she said she's ready to settle down and start a family. "I had to get a lot of partying out of my system early in life for about 40 years, you know what I'm saying," she said. "I'm good now. I think I'm ready."

Sources tell the site that not only are they expecting a baby, they're also gearing up to trek down the aisle. Eboni was spotted rocking a ring on THAT finger.

"Friends are saying Latifah and Eboni are finally engaged," said an insider.

While all of this is good news, RadarOnline has also alleged that Queen the Oscar nominated actress has been seen sneaking in and out of a cancer treatment center for almost a year. This report comes after the death of her mother, Rita Owens, who passed away in March after a decade-long battle.

Congrats to the couple!

Megyn Kelly's TV life is seemingly crumbling right before our eyes amid the blackface controversy. Too bad so sad. Deets inside...

UPDATE:

It's being reported, Megyn Kelly is OUT at NBC! 

The Daily Mail reports:

This move comes just 48 hours after the embattled host made remarks in which she defended blackface on Today.

Kelly tried to deal with the scandal by delivering a tearful apology on-air and welcoming two black panelists to discuss the fraught and horrifying history of the practice, but it did no good.

"Megyn Kelly is done. She is not ever coming back," said an NBC executive with knowledge of the situation. "We are just working out timing of the announcement but mark my word – she is gone and will never be seen on NBC live again."

A spokesperson for NBC declined to comment at this time.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#Blackfacegate continues!

Megyn Kelly is feeling the heat after she defended the use of blackface for Halloween costumes during a recent episode NBC’s "Megyn Kelly Today." The former FOX talking head tried to backtrack, bringing Roland Martin on her show to school folks on the origins of blackface. She also offered up an apology to her NBC colleagues and apologized at the top of her show yesterday (with Roland Martin), but that isn't enough.

She wasn't on the "TODAY" show this morning, she has parted ways with CAA, and the "House of Cards" guests backed out on an appearance.

Megyn was MIA for her 9AM show this morning and she won't be on there tomorrow either. Deadline reports she's looking to make a return to her "harder news roots," after the blackface debacle. The network aired a rerun of one of her show's that focused on sleep deprivation.

“Given the circumstances, Megyn Kelly Today will be on tape the rest of the week,” a spokesperson told Deadline.

It's reported Megyn met with NBC executives to discuss the future of her NBC show.

The former Fox News primetime star is no longer a client of CAA and had planned to move to UTA, but that all went down the drain by her blackface comments. She left CAA and was looking to sign with UTA, but the agency doesn't want to proceed with bringing her on as a client. Bloop.

Since she's no longer going to UTA, she has instead retained leading Hollywood attorney Bryan Freedman as she is likely entering settlement talks with NBC, according to Deadline. This signals her show might (finally) be a wrap.

Adding fuel to the fire...

Netflix has confirmed some of the cast and EPs from "House of Cards" backed out for an appearance on her morning show amid the blackface backlash. "House of Cards" actor Michael Kelly and show-runners Frank Pugliese and Melissa James Gibson decided to skip out on promoting the show.

We're just going to leave this here: 

The Wall Street Journal previously reported that “the combined salaries of previous hosts Al Roker and Tamron Hall were less than half of Ms. Kelly’s $23 million-a-year payday,” for worse ratings. https://t.co/gJT7TrwD8k

Cardi B. revealed what would happen if she's in the same room with Nicki Minaj again, how her baby's already getting 7-figure deal offers and why she won't be going on tour anytime soon.  Oh, and that Beyoncé collab we've been waiting for.  Get it all inside...

New mom Cardi B. Facetimed Ebro Darden for an interview with Beats 1 Music last night.  And she had more words for Nicki, her fans and more.  And yes, fresh off that "Money" banger, she talked more new music too.

On her next release being a collection of bonus tracks
“The plan was always to drop a, like, bonus. But I just didn’t [think] I was going to be so busy doing back-and-forth, back-and-forth things after I gave birth. It’s like, oh my God, like, my schedule is so flooded. Maybe in December or just maybe January. I don’t know. It’s just songs that I felt were really good songs that didn’t make the album.”

On the the “Money” leak, reiterating that Nicki Minaj fans kept spreading the track after it surfaced.

“I can show you screenshots of comments. Who are these people threatening my child? It’s just really disgusting, disturbing things. We just don’t want to show our baby right now. I got offered seven figures [to show Kulture], but I’m just not ready yet.

Cardi on not having collaborated with Beyonce despite rumors that she has, but she is definitely open to the idea
“Let’s put that into the universe.” [laughs]

To celebrate his 32nd birthday, Drake threw a 2000's themed birthday bash and several of his celeb friends came out to turn up and reminisce on the good ol days. Go inside Drizzy's party inside...

We're getting all the 2000's nostaglia feels (and feeling OLD AF) from Drake's 32nd birthday bash. It was everything!

The VIEWS rapper brought all of his celeb friends back to his childhood with a soiree that included a Blockbuster Video wall, a 7-Eleven filled with slurpees and food, and cars from MTV's "Pimp My Ride." We know y'all remember all of these 2000-era gems. He took it back with BET's Rap City Booth and the “106 & Park” set and photo booth. (Where is Terrence J, by the way?!)

The Young Money rapper also had a room set up, dubbed "Sandra's Room" (named after his mother Sandy Graham), filled with roses with pictures from his childhood with his mother plastered everywhere. And airbrushed shirts of Drake and his dad Dennis Graham’s durags available at JayDees Connection store for guests.

Drizzy served up two looks from his favorite era. He rocked a dark blue sweatsuit complete with a white Nike headband, white Air Force Ones, and a flip phone. He also paid tribute to Fabolous’ 2002 “Trade It All” music video, rocking a blue LA Dodgers jersey, Los Angeles fitted hat and hella gold chains. Nailed it!

Some of his celeb guests included Chris Brown, Swizz Beatz, French Montana, Tory Lanez and more. Peep the flicks below:

Come on, one leg!

Apparently, Christina Milian's gonna want smoke if you try to block her from her nightcap.  Deets inside on the brawl she was reportedly involved in with a bouncer...

After living it up at the Bruno Mars concert at the Staples Center Tuesday night, Christina Milian and her girl, model Nicole Williams (far right, below at the concert), hit up the Figueroa Hotel in downtown L.A.  The bouncer gave them a NOPE on getting in, reportedly because it was after last call.  Then, all hell broke loose when the bouncer allegedly grabbed Christina when she allegedly threw a drink at him. 

The "Dip It Low" singer's camp denies anything was thrown, but alleges the bouncer did hit one of her friends.

TMZ reports:

What's odd is, we're told he let in Nicole and few others before fully blocking the singer/actress and one other friend. One witness claims one of the friends who was inside reached to open a gate, Christina threw a drink at the bouncer, and then things got outta hand. We're told he tried to grab Christina, but 2 guys stepped in and the fight started.

Christina's camp tells us a different story -- that the hotel manager told the group they could enter the bar, and when the bouncer started getting aggressive ... Nicole left to go find that manager. They deny Christina threw anything, and claim the bouncer actually struck one of her friends during the standoff.

When it was clear he wasn't budging they called an Uber and left. Christina's people say the bouncer actually followed them down the street as they walked to meet their ride.

Chistina's camp says the singer herself wasn't involved in the brawl and the guys who were are not part of her group.  LAPD was called, but no charges have been pressed as of yet.  The hotel says the hoopla was "unfortunate".

Former NFL player Rae Carruth will be settling in Pennsylvania after serving almost two decades in a North Carolina prison for plotting to kill his then pregnant girlfriend. In other news, Gucci Mane is trying his damnedest not to have his child support payments increased. Everything inside...

Days after former NFL player Rae Curruth, 44, was released from prison for plotting the death of his then-pregnant girlfriend, Cherica Adams, it's revealed where he'll now lay his head after serving almost two decades behind bars.

The former North Carolina Panthers wide receiver is reportedly moving to Pennsylvania days after he was released from a prison in Clinton, North Carolina. It's reported he is officially under the supervision of the Pennsylvania Board of Probation and Parole.

WBTV reports:

Since he is now under PBPP supervision he is expected to soon be living in the state full time.

According to their website, Interstate Commission for Adult Offender Supervision is charged with overseeing the day-to-day operations of the Interstate Compact for Adult Offender Supervision, a formal agreement between member states that seeks to promote public safety by systematically controlling the interstate movement of certain adult offenders.

The agreement was formally made between North Carolina and Pennsylvania.

Tiffany Trice, a family friend who said she was with Carruth, said that he did not want to speak to the media or say where he planned to live.

Last year, it was reported the fallen NFL star wanted to seek custody of his son, Chancellor Lee, whom he shared with Cherica Adams before her untimely death. Chancellor was born with cerebral palsy and suffered brain damage because of the lack oxygen caused by the shooting that killed his mother. At the time, he wrote a letter to Cherica's mother, Saundra Adams, sharing how he wanted a relationship with his son and in a TV interview he said,"I should be raising my son." Oh?

Saundra, who has cared for Chancellor since he was born and lives in Charlotte, responded in an interview, saying Rae would never have custody of his son.

Rae eventually changed his mind. By the way, Rae has an older son he welcomed during his sophmore year in college.

Rae was convicted in 2001 for paying a hit man to murder Cherica Adams, who was eight months pregnant with Chancellor. He was released from prison earlier this week.

In child support news...

A few months ago, we told you Gucci Mane's son's mother, Sheena Evans, was looking to have her monthly child support payments increased. Now, Guwop is responding. 

Since the Atlanta rapper and his wife Keyshia Ka'oir stay floosing on the 'Gram, spends an excessive amount of money on jewelry, and can afford a $1 million wedding, she feels she should be receiving at least $20,000/month, a huge jump from the $2,000/month he's currently paying.

However, the 1017 Brick Squad rapper says his finaces aren't as great as they seem.

The Blast reports:

On October 17, Big Guwop filed documents responding to a lawsuit from his baby mama, Sheena Evans. Evans is seeking to increase the child support she receives over their 11-year-old son, Keitheon.

In his response, Gucci denies that he lives lavishly, and also denies that his wedding cost a million bucks. The rapper says his income hasn’t changed since 2011, and claims that he’s already paying the health insurance and medical expenses for their son. He doesn’t believe an increase is due to Evans, and wants the entire case tossed out.

How ironic he filed the paperwork on his wedding anniversary.

We aren't judges, but Gucci may have a hard time proving he's as "broke" as he claims he is. And now that he's married, Keyshia Ka'oir may want to re-work her finances to keep from having to help pay his child support.

*trigger alert for anyone who's dealt with a f**boi*

T.I. is delusional and he's letting his toxicity show out on the new season of "Friends & Family Hustle." Watch him try to manipulate his wife Tiny Harris over his cheating scandals...

T.I. makes it SO hard to like him.

On one hand, he's seemingly down for the cause, speaking out against racial injustice, and doing his part to bring awareness to the issues we all run into in the black community.

But in true hotep form, he goes turns into a total jacka** when it comes to being a good husband to his wife, Tiny Harris.

It's no secret Tip has cheated, embarrassing his wife and mother of his children on a larger scale now that his antics can be blasted all over the Internet. Yet, he continues to do it.

At one point, Tiny got fed up and filed for divorce from the Atlanta rapper in December 2016. The divorce has since been called off (shocker!) and the two have been "working on things."

On the premiere episode of "Friends & Family Hustle," Tiny confronts Tip about an incriminating video that made its way to social media. It shows him grabbing/smacking "Greenleaf" actress Asia’h Epperson's cakes backstage at one of his concerts a few months ago.

Instead of taking ownership of his transgression, he flipped the script.   He TOLD Tiny (not suggested or asked or alluded to) the REAL issue she's mad about is that the video was posted to social media, not what he was doing in the video. Wait...what? He said had the video been sent to Tiny directly, it wouldn't have even been a problem. Oh?

He went on to say that he hates how everyone else's opinions get in their house and in her head.  We bet he doesn't hate those reality show checks where he invites the world INTO his home.

He tried to make her believe she was only mad because people were hitting her up about the video. Umm, no sir. If you weren't out here THOTTING then no one would be hitting her up in the first place.

The Dime Trap rapper wasn't finished there.

He fixed his mouth to tell Tiny that their chemistry can't be duplicated and she'll never find any man as good as him.

The narcissism is nauseating.  Tiny very likely believing this ish is even more gross.

Peep the clip - if you can stand it - below:

Later in the show...

Tip linked up with his homies Lil Duval and K Dub to chat about the situation over drinks.

"What kind of man records another man through the crack of the door, who ain't even really doing sh*t?," Tip asked. "Like, ain't no man code no more. I was NOT caught cheating. The point we speak of, I was caught flirting."

"How you keep getting caught up man?," Lil Duval asked.

"You can do something and it will not make it. If I go somewhere and do half of what you do...," T.I. explained before he was interuppted by Duval.

"Well, you should know not to do half of what I do!," Duval said, basing up on Tip.

Maybe TI & Tiny have an arrangement.  Maybe they've agreed slapping cakes and outright flirtations aren't cheating.  Something tells us neither is the case though.

Who would have thought comedian Lil Duval would be the one to offer up sound advice? We're happy he does have some people around him who can give him the REAL because Tip is wildin' out in these streets.

We also noticed the "Greenleaf" actress in the video getting groped by T.I. was seemingly firing off subliminals after the premiere episode of the show. Asia'h hopped on Twitter insinuating that this is all just another "storyline" for the couple.

Peep her tweets:

Damn...anyone else need a story line?!

— Asia'h Epperson (@AsiahEpperson) October 23, 2018

Thank God I’m whole.

— Asia'h Epperson (@AsiahEpperson) October 23, 2018

We guess, girl.

The next episode of "Friends & Family Hustle" premieres next Monday at 9/8c on VH1.

"Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta" will be welcoming a new couple for the upcoming season. Meet the first gay male couple to grace the ATL franchise inside...

Back in 2015, Miles Brock and Milan Christopher were introduced as the first gay couple to star on the "Love & Hip Hop" franchise. They joined the Hollywood cast. Now, a new couple is about to take over Atlanta.

"Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta" will be featuring its first gay couple, as the twosome call themselves, on the series. Meet Prince Carter and Zachary Jones.

The new reality couple's reps confirmed that they have officially signed on as regular castmates and that production for the show kicked off last week

The Blast has details about the men - both DMV natives - and what they do:

Carter is deeply involved in the ATL scene and is considered one of the top socialites in town. He’s also interviewed a bunch of the current “LHH” stars, including Mimi Faust, Karlie Redd, Momma Dee, Bambi and Erica Dixon. We’re told Jones is a fashion model who regularly works with Fashion Nova. We’re told Carter has also become extremely close friends with Karlie Redd, and will more than likely be involved with her storyline on the show.

The guys tell The Blast, “As an African American gay male couple it’s tough as hell in today’s society and there are sooooooooooo many stigmas we’re up against. We are two big personalities who just happen to love each other dearly,” adding that, “With this platform, we want to show that love has no face or color. But love is all about treating others with respect. Allowing people to just live their best lives.”

If you watched "LAHH: Hollywood," Milan and Christopher had TONS of drama, especially since Christopher was still in a relationship with his child's mother. However, Prince and Zach said they want to show a "gay relationship in more of a positive light.”

We're here for it.

We're curious to know what their story line will be. Since Prince has interviewed Karlie before (and likely started some form of a relationship), we wouldn't be surprised if he got involved in her messy ways.

Stay tuned...

A black teenage girl went on the "Dr. Phil Show" to explain why she identifies as a white person, all while dragging her own race. More inside...

A 16-year-old black girl named Treasure has some serious issues....or she's trolling.

The young teen went on the "Dr. Phil Show" to explain why she identifies as a white person. Oh? Treasure said she's a white person because her hair is straight and NOT nappy, her nose isn't "giant" like African-Americans, and she doesn't speak "ghetto" like black people do. Whew, chile. The sterotypes.

Throughout the episode she kept repeating, "I'm Caucasian," much to Dr. Phil's surprise. Treasure's mom revealed she used to mutilate her black dolls as a child and would make them "slaves" to her white dolls.

"Well, I know I'm a Caucasian because when I wake up in the morning I just have such a great life," she shared with Dr. Phil. "My hair is so perfect, my skin isn't ugly, and I'm not fat also, which is also an African-American thing. I'm nowhere near like them. They're so thug and criminal, I can't relate."

She said she can feel her "Caucasian-ness" in her blood and she KNOWS she's white. Chile...

Peep the clip below:

Chick insists she's white and calls black people "loud," "rude," "obnoxious," "fat," "ugly," "hood rats."

"They all act like monkeys," Treasure said.

Treasure's mother shared she's "mortified" by her daughter's comments. When she was younger, they had to move from a mostly white affluent neighborhood to the city, which was mostly African-American. Her mother said:

"It made me feel good to put down an African-American person because it helps them stay in their place. All the African-American kids that I was around were all ugly looking and losers. They're all gorillas."

"My daughter is racist to her own race," her mother said.

Oh, and it gets worse. Treasure's mom revealed her daughter is consumed with the Ku Klux Klan. Treasure said she has the KKK's number on speed dial and that they keep her current on events.

"I identify with the Ku Klux Klan because the way they believe is just so smart. White is right. White power," she said.

Watch her mother explain how her daughter's self hate began and her brother call her a "racist" below:

Treasure's mom and brother are fearful that someone will hurt her over her hatred comments:

Treasure's mother also shared that she let her kids believe her late husband, who was white, was their biological father. After he passed, Treasure's mom explained that her husband wasn't their biological father and that crushed Treasure.

If you can stand anymore of this delusional child, peep a few more clips below:

It's clear this child is battling some inner demons about who she is. It's clear she's suffering an indentity crisis, especially after her mother told her the truth about her biological father. She needs help. BAD.

A Clueless remake is in the works and we've chosen who we would like to see on the big screen to recreate the cult classic. See our picks, and add a few of your own inside...

As if!

Yep, a Clueless remake is in the works (23 years after the original was released) and we're not even mad about it. The reason? Girls Trip co-writer Tracy Oliver revealed she's involved in the remake with Paramount Pictures. She'll be producing and Marquita Robinson, a story editor and writer on the Netflix comedy series “GLOW,” has been hired to write the script.

Crazy excited to be producing a *new* take on one of my favorite movies of all time, #Clueless, with the hilarious and super talented @MarqRobinson writing it!!! As. If. https://t.co/wNH2OIdopQ

— Tracy Y. Oliver (@TracyYOliver) October 25, 2018

A melanin-filled Clueless?"We're totally buggin'"

So, who's going to recreate the 90s classic film? That has yet to be determined as the remake is in its early stages. If we could choose the cast, we'd pick Zendaya to play Cher Horowitz (originally played by Alicia Silverstone), and we would name her Shae Horowitz.

As for Dionne Davenport (played by Stacey Dash), we would like to see either Normani, Justine Skye or Skai Jackson to fill the role.

The 1995 original was based on the Jane Austen novel titled, "Emma." It became a cultural phenomenon that spawned a TV series on ABC and an Off-Broadway musical. According to Deadline, the musical goes into previews on Nov. 20th and opens on Dec. 11th at The Alice Griffin Jewel Box Theatre at The Pershing Square Signature Center.

So, who would you choose to play Cher, Dionne, or any of your other faves from the movie? Let us know in the comments!

It's official! NBC has canceled Megyn Kelly's morning show and FOX News doesn't want her back. Details inside...

More white woman tears are falling today.

NBC just announced that the "Megyn Kelly Today" show has been axed from the lineup and will be filled by other TODAY co-anchors during her 9AM slot, following the blackface backlash.

"Megyn Kelly Today is not returning," an NBC News spokesperson said. "Next week, the 9 a.m. hour will be hosted by other TODAY co-anchors.” The writing was on the wall already.

It was previously announced she would be out for the rest of the week, with rumors swirling that she would be out indefinitely. She recently parted ways with CAA and was looking to sign up on UTA, but they were like, "We're good luv, enjoy." Also, the "House of Cards" guests backed out on an appearance at the last minute.

The former FOX News primetime star caught heat after she defended the use of blackface for Halloween costumes during an episode of her show. She then offered up an apology and brought TV One commentator Roland Martin on the show to school her and her audience on the origins of blackface. However, that wasn't enough to keep her job.

It's being reported she may still stay with the network, but it's unlikely. While she may shedding white tears over losing her show, she's STILL going to get those coins. NBC will buy out her $69 million contract, so there's that.

As for what's next for Megyn? It's unclear. What we do know is she will NOT be making a return to FOX News even though she was once one of their top primetime stars on the network. FOX News told USA Today "there isn’t room for Kelly right now in the conservative news channel’s primetime lineup."

Welp. Sorry, not sorry.

We wonder what Tamron Hall is doing....

Congresswoman Maxine Waters warned folks a while ago do NOT come for her because she's never scared. The FBI was able to arrest the #MAGABomber after tracing a fingerprint off the bomb he sent to Auntie Maxine. Get those deets and everything else we've learned thus far inside...

Congresswoman Maxine Waters, D-Calif., warned her haters and potential shooters that they better come correct if they're trying to get rid of her. And she made it known she isn't scared one bit. Well, the #MAGABomber thought he had a chance at taking her (and other high-profile Democrats) out, but apparently, he isn't as smart as he thinks he is.

The FBI was able to track down the suspected #MAGABomber - 56-year-old Cesar Sayoc - by using a fingerprint found on the envelope sent to Rep. Maxine Waters, according to FBI Director Christopher Wray.

"Based on their initial analysis, they uncovered a latent fingerprint from one of the envelopes containing an I.E.D. That had been sent to Congresswoman Maxine Waters. We have confirmed this fingerprint is that of Cesar Sayoc," he said.

Sure Cesar Sayoc attended Trump rallies, wore MAGA hats, drove round in a van featuring Trump opponents with targets on their faces and sent bombs to individuals Trump had publicly criticised, but it’s too early to speculate on his motivation #MAGABomberpic.twitter.com/9vM0gW5mQJ

— Rod Kelly (@rodkelly50) October 26, 2018

The FBI was able to track down the pro-Trump mail bomber -a Florida man with a long criminal history - since his fingerprints were already in the system for earlier arrests in Florida where he previously tried/threatened to bomb people. The privilege.

He has arrests that date back to the early 1990s, including a 2002 offense that was described as a “threat to bomb” and “threaten to discharge destructive device," according to Florida Department of Law Enforcement records. In addition to the DNA found, the FBI also used Cesar Sayoc's cell phone to track him down. He's currently being held at a federal detention facility in downtown Miami.

FBI Director Christopher Wray confirmed that there were 13 improvised explosive devices sent to individuals across the country, who are Democratic politicians and prominent anti-Trump critics. Some of them include, former president Barack Obama, former president and first lady Bill and Hillary Clinton, former attorney general Eric Holder, US Rep. Maxine Waters, Senator Cory Booker, Senator Kamala Harris, former VP Joe Biden, actor Robert De Niro, and more.

The #MAGABomber has been arrested and hit with 5 federal charges, which include, interstate transportation of an explosive, illegal mailing of explosives, threats against former presidents and other persons, threatening interstate communications, and assaulting current and former federal officers, according to attorney general Jeff Sessions.

He faces up to 48 years in prison. Wait, that's it? Def should be more.

Conservative commentator Candace Owens hopped on Twitter when news first hit about the bombs to share her ridiculous conspiracy theories. She made claims that the Democrats were behind the bombs to try and make Trump look bad days before the midterm elections:

Needless to say, she has since deleted the tweet. Bloop.

FBI Director Christopher Wray said in a press conference today that the bombs were NOT a hoax in any way, shape or form.

"Though we're still analyzing the devices in our laboratory, these are not hoax devices," he said.

The devices consisted of "roughly six inches of PVC pipe, a small clock, a battery, some wiring and what is known as energetic material, which is essentially potential explosives and material that give off heat and energy through a reaction to heat, shock or friction," Wray said

While the suspected bomber has been arrested, it's not certain if there are more bombs making their way to potential targets.

“Today’s arrest does not mean we are all out of the woods. There may be more packages in transit now," Wray said.

Former Press Secretary for Congress Rochelle Ritchie previously recevied death threats from the #MAGABomber and reported him to Twitter. They didn't do anything about it, and, here we are.

Hey @Twitter remember when I reported the guy who was making threats towards me after my appearance on @FoxNews and you guys sent back a bs response about how you didn’t find it that serious. Well guess what it’s the guy who has been sending #bombs to high profile politicians!!!! pic.twitter.com/xBY8FMbqnq

— R O C H E L L E (@RochelleRitchie) October 26, 2018

The #MAGABomber also threated Eric Holder on Twitter a few weeks ago before mailing a bomb to him:

“See u soon Tick Tock” — Cesar Sayoc to Eric Holder a few weeks ago pic.twitter.com/C5oPIm8sSk

— Ryan J. Reilly (@ryanjreilly) October 26, 2018

It's no secret Cesar Sayoc is an alt-right supporter, however, conservatives are trying to downplay his affiliation with the political party. They say the stickers on his van that showed support for Trump and put targets over the faces of prominent Trump critics were just placed on there and that it was just part of the left-wing conspiracy. Bruh. They have to stop this ish.

Look at him below:

This notion that the #MAGABomber was not influenced by Donald Trump is outrageous. He is the living, breathing personification of Trump-ism.

Everything about him shows he was directly and almost exclusively influenced by Trump & @BreitbartNews. pic.twitter.com/MKF9lvIQ4z

— Shaun King (@shaunking) October 26, 2018

He's clearly a TRUMP supporter.

#MAGABomber arrested for assassination attempts of Trump critics and here’s a picture of his van. It’s covered in stickers of @realDonaldTrump. This was not a false-flag operation. It was a Trump supporter targeting Democrats and Trump’s 100% to blame for inciting this extremism. pic.twitter.com/7tWUzYhpJv

— Ryan Knight (@ProudResister) October 26, 2018

By the way, the #MAGABomber lived in his white sticker-covered van after his parents kicked him out of the house. It's unclear how long he has been living in the van.

Then the fact that Trump does a press conference about the mail bomber in front of a young, black conservatives group during the Young Black Leadership Summit ....just UGH!

Watch Trump react to the arrest of the mail bomber below:

A senior White House official confirmed Trump has no intention of calling Obama or anyone else that was targeted with the mail bombs. No surprise there.

During an interview with reporters on the South Lawn of the White House, Trump responded to the suspected bomber having his image on his van.

“I did not see my face on the van,” he said. “I heard he was a person who prefers me over others, but I did not see that. There’s no blame, there’s no anything,” he added.

But you see everything else? OK.

And then there's this:

I just asked @realDonaldTrump if he would pledge to tone down his rhetoric over the next few days ahead of the midterms. His answer: no.

— Cecilia Vega (@CeciliaVega) October 26, 2018

WATCH: When asked if his rhetoric and encouragement to violence could be toned down, Trump says "I could tone it up" implicitly threatening the assembled reporters. pic.twitter.com/GnWoniL8uk

— John Iadarola (@johniadarola) October 26, 2018

BIG sigh.

Maxine Waters, Kamala Harris and Cory Booker have responded to bombs being addressed to them.

In an interview with Blavity, Congresswoman Waters said:

"We have to keep to doing what we’re doing in order to make this country right. That's what I intend to do, and as the young people say, 'I ain’t scared. We must not be intimidated to the point that we stop advocating and protesting for justice." Peep the video here.

Tell 'em!

Kamala Harris' office released this statement today:

“Earlier today, Senator Harris’ office was informed that a suspicious package, similar to those that have been sent to other elected officials, was sent to our Sacramento district office. Our understanding is that a trained postal employee identified the package at a Sacramento mail facility and reported it to the authorities. Fortunately, nobody was injured. Senator Harris is enormously grateful to law enforcement officials across the country who have worked so hard over the past week to keep our fellow citizens safe.

And Cory Booker took to Twitter:

Grateful for law enforcement's work to bring those responsible to justice & for their vigilance to keep Americans safe. Cowardly acts of terror will never silence or intimidate Americans—they will only strengthen our resolve to stand against fear & hatred. https://t.co/Xd2CYgXIHC

— Cory Booker (@CoryBooker) October 26, 2018

Thankfully, no one has been harmed and we're keeping our fingers crossed it stays that way.

The future is woman. Get the deets on Ethiopia's FIRST female president inside...

The world is changing and the future is seemingly pushing towards women being held in higher positions. And we're here for it, especially when it comes to black women sitting in powerful positions.

Ethiopia just elected the country's FIRST female president, days after creating one of the world's very few "gender-balanced" cabinets.

Ethiopian lawmakers unanimously chose Sahle-Work Zewde, an experienced diplomat, as their new leader, which makes her the first female head of state in Ethiopia's modern history. She previously served as a special representative to the African Union. She also served as the head of the U.N. Office to the African Union, and she was the first woman in that role as well! Yasssss!

Not only did they choose a female president, they also changed up the cabinet to make it 50% female!

NPR reports:

Sahle-Work's appointment comes just a week after Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed overhauled the Cabinet. Abiy, who was appointed in April, reduced the size of the Cabinet to 20 from 28 — and then named women to half of the ministerial roles. Women now fill the two most prominent Cabinet positions: minister of defense and the newly created minister of peace, who oversees the intelligence and security forces.

.@SahleWorkZewde's been officially sworn in as the President of the Federal Democratic Republic of #Ethiopia. Since June 2018, she served as Head of @UNOAU_& Special Representative of the Secretary-General to the #AfricanUnion. #UNOAU staff expressed gratitude & congratulations pic.twitter.com/hqQnew7it7

— UN Office to the AU (@UNOAU_) October 25, 2018

"A career diplomat & senior official at the UN, she brings the right competence & experience to the office," Fitsum Arega, chief of staff to the prime minister's office, tweeted. "In a patriarchal society such as ours, the appointment of a female head of state not only sets the standard for the future but also normalises women as decision-makers in public life."

— Fitsum Arega (@fitsumaregaa) October 25, 2018

Yes, women are capable of being decision-makers just as good, if not BETTER, than men. That whole notion that woman are too "emotional" to lead is total BS and we're ecstatic to see Ethiopia is realizing the strength and power in a woman to let her lead them.

"Congratulations to Sahle-Work Zewde & to Ethiopians, on your first woman president & new cabinet in which women ministers head key departments," U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres tweeted."The African continent is leading the way in showcasing that women's engagement and leadership are crucial to lasting peace. #SCR1325"

Congratulations to Sahle-Work Zewde & to Ethiopians, on your first woman president & new cabinet in which women ministers head key departments. The African continent is leading the way in showcasing that women's engagement and leadership are crucial to lasting peace. #SCR1325

— António Guterres (@antonioguterres) October 25, 2018

Women are changing that old narrative that women can't hold political leadership positions. With a woman in charge, it will only inspire young girls to believe that they can also aspire to hold the highest office in the land. Women do make a difference and we're excited for Ethiopia. Now, we just need the U.S. to take notice and follow suit.

Congrats Madam President!

Your FICO score is about to be reevaluated with a new system that will give Americans a chance to prove themselves to lenders, but is it more harmful than helpful? Get the details and decide inside...

Starting in 2019, your credit score may get a boost. The reason? Cash is now part of the equation.

A new pilot program called UltraFICO may enhance your credit score by incorporating data from your savings and checking accounts. The new program will allow Americans who "have very little credit" prove themselves to lenders, despite not having a history of making on-time payments on a car loan, mortgage or credit card.

NBC News reports:

FICO parent company Fair Isaac Corporation announced Monday a new model called the UltraFICO Score, which will augment traditional metrics of credit risk with voluntarily offered information from bank statements, like evidence of saving and on-time payment transactions. When it debuts in a pilot program next year, credit experts say the UltraFICO score will improve access to credit for people with so-called “thin files” who have little, if any, traditional credit history.

The new system will allow lenders to make more informed lending decisions when evaluating the credit risk of a prospective customer, which would allow the lender to do a better job at matching the right credit offer to a potential customer.

FICO plans a big shift in credit-score calculations, potentially boosting millions of borrowers pic.twitter.com/YejozGpvui

— The Wall Street Journal (@WSJ) October 27, 2018

Sounds good right? Some of y'all are already making purchases in your head with this new information. However, it may not be as good as it sounds.

While boosting credit scores to make it easier to qualify for loans may seem like a good idea, it's actually horrible for the economy. This is how recessions happened in the past. People were getting approved for home loans they shouldn't have been, then they defaulted and were then thrust into a mortgage crisis which sparked/added to a recession.

So, think about it. This new FICO evaluation could only benefit lending companies and corporations, likely friends of Trump. Just sayin'. You have to weigh all your options here.

So, do you think UltraFICO is the new financial wave or will it end up causing more unnecessary issues when it comes to borrowing money? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.

Diddy has a special message for his ex-girlfriend Cassie that he wants you all to relay to her. Find out what he said and more inside...

Looks like Diddy is pulling a "Carmelo Anthony."

The Hip Hop mogul seemingly wants that old thing back and he's going the social media route to try and win his ex-girlfriend Cassie over. Remember how desperate Melo was acting on social mediawhen he and his wife LaLa Anthony separated?

Well, Diddy is following his blueprint.

Last night, the Bad Boy honcho got dressed up in a Captain costume, Ciroc bottle in hand, to party it up at the Casamigos Halloween bash in Beverly Hills. Before heading out to the party, the 48-year-old mogul hopped on Instagram to send a message out to Cassie. Maybe she blocked his number and social media is the only way for him to communicate with her. Or, he just wants us all to see the "hard work" he's putting in to get her back.

He wants Cassie to know she'll always be his girl, no matter what.

“If anyone sees Cassie this weekend please tell her to listen to this song 100 times,” Diddy captioned a picture of Michael Jackson's “The Lady in My Life,” a cut from his chart-topping Thriller album.

MJ sings about getting his woman back. Having achieved fame and fortune, nothing compares to sharing his life with his special lady.

"The Four" judge also hopped in Cassie's Instagram comments section a few days ago, letting her know his love never stopped. She posted a black-and-white video of her in sitting in the bed with the caption #Hungover as a song she recorded played in the background.

"Love you forever," he captioned with a black heart emoji.

A rep for Cassie did say she was working on new music, so it's likely a teaser for one of her new tracks. Take a listen below:

#Hungover

A post shared by Casandra (@cassie) on Oct 25, 2018 at 6:54am PDT

We learned last week Diddy and Cassie had called it quits after a decade-long relationship. It's rumored that Diddy is now "dating" 26-year-old IG model Jocelyn Chew, who looks vaguely similar to his ex. A rep for Cassie confirmed the breakup, however, she hasn't directly addressed the split. Earlier this week, she post up a cryptic message on IG Stories this week that simply read, "F*ck These H*es," which may or may not have been directed at her ex.

Back on the party scene....

Diddy's homie/rapper French Montana, "Big Little Lies" actress Zoe Kravitz, and model Cindy Crawford got all dressed up for some Halloween fun.

Loves it.

Are you all ready for the Halloween festivities this weekend?

Whew, chile. The drama! "Growing Up Hip Hop: Atlanta" stars Masika Kalysha and Kiyomi aired out their frustrations with one another on Twitter and it got ugly. Meanwhile, 50 Cent has responded to Ashanti calling him a "bully." Get it all inside...

Although Bow Bow and Kiyomi have already broken up, she's still arguing with his "friend" Masika Kalysha.

On this week's episode of "Growing Up Hip: Atlanta," Masika was throwing hella shade at Bow Wow's then-girlfriend Kiyomi. During a confessional, the former "Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood" star called Kiyomi "the thot bot of the week."

As they watched with the rest of us, Kiyomi hopped on Twitter and retweeted a tweet that said, "When you don't do a scene yet with @masikakalysha and she talks about you every scene sus she doesn't know you exist yet."

In true Masika fashion, she responded and went lethal.

"When u mindin yo business & u never heard of a B*tch but she so insecure & jealous of u that she talks about u 25/8 bts & tells @smoss goofy ass he can’t film with u & she too scared to film w u too, but ur in Atlanta the whole summer & production asks u to talk about it #fixedit," Masika tweeted. Yeah, Masika seemingly wants some smoke and Kiyomi gave it to her.

"You better keep it cute for Shad Moss tell you the REAL REASON he entertains you," Kiyomi tweeted. "You go on a whole show talkin bout me nobody 'insecure' you have nothing I want / or need in life. Act your age is what I’m saying."

Oop. Peep their exchange, plus tweets from Bow Wow (who executive produces the show) himself, below:

Masika said she's tired of "b*tches" trying to make a come up off her name:

Bloop! Did Kiyomi call Bow's man parts small....?

Today, Kiyomi continued her Twitter posts: 

The same reason why niggas talk cash shit. After the fact...

— Lil Mexico (@Thee_Kiyomi) October 27, 2018

I can play but I’d rather mind my business, because we all know I know some shit... Ion see why niggas get mad when you leave & wanna run the usual script of “trashing” the female damn how many years was it the “female” & not you? Hoe my god get HELP already.

— Lil Mexico (@Thee_Kiyomi) October 27, 2018

Then, she issued a warning that she has RECEIPTS, so tread lightly:

For EVERYTHING I SAY... I have a receipt to back that statement up! (Mental Note) I ain’t never said shit that wasn’t true... I like talking bout REAL SHIT... no need to fabricate , the truth is so much more entertaining!

— Lil Mexico (@Thee_Kiyomi) October 27, 2018

Go ahead and spill the tea, sis.

In other drama...

Earlier this week, 50 Cent was on his trolling steez and Ashanti was his target.

We told you Ashanti only sold 24 tickets to perform at Stony Brook University's "Back to the Brook" concert for students. Shanti wasn't originally supposed to perform (Teyana Taylor was), the concert wasn't promoted correctly, the concert was only for students, AND the students may not be Ashanti's demo.

However, that didn't stop 50 Cent from clowning her. In a now deleted Instagram post, the "Power" producer/star suggested Ashanti should "do basement parties then it can still feel lit it's lit."

Sighs...THIS guy.

TMZ caught up with the birhtday girl (she has been celebrating her 38th birthday all month) when she pulled up at LAX to ask her how she felt about Fif talking ish.

The Braveheart singer threw a some shots of her own, replying, "Officer Curtis better cut it out," she said with a laugh. Fif despises that nickname as it implies he's a snitch. Got 'em!

“I mean it’s obvious that it was a lack of promotion, the school put out a statement to clarify that it was a lack of promotion and that they should’ve never did it, but you know, no hard feelings," she explained.

When asked if he was a bully, she responded, "Curtis is definitely a bully."

Peep the clip above.

Since Fif never lets up when it comes to trolling, he hopped back on Instagram to respond to Ashanti's video. "don’t let them tell you what to say Ashanti fuck," he captioned. "smh your not suppose to say I’m a bully. Your suppose to say fuck 50,he don’t want no smoke. LOLget the strap #bellator #lecheminduroi"

Fif posted up a screenshot of some Ja Rule concert tickets that were posted on Groupon going for $15/ticket. He deleted the post, but in the comments he claims he bought the first 200 tickets so the front seats would be left empty.

And he didn't stop there. He went on to post Photoshopped images of what the crowd at Ja's Nov. 9th show will look like since he allegedly bought those tickets.

Then, he said he's not going to stop trolling until he wants to:

This man - with two children of his own - has too much time on his hands.

Four Jacksonville Jaguars players ended up in lock up ahead today's game against the Eagles. It's being reported there was a misunderstanding on a $64,000 (50,000 British pounds) bar tab. Deets inside...

Well, we're sure this isn't the way the Jacksonville Jaguars wanted to kick off their weekend in London ahead of their game against the Philadelphia Eagles this morning.

It's being reported players on the Jaguars team were detained early Saturday morning after an incident in a London nightclub. Four players were detained after a misunderstanding over a bar tab that totaled 50,000 British pounds ($64,000 U.S.) at London Reign Showclub that “features burlesque and circus performers.”

A source told the UK’s Sun newspaper a fight with the bouncers broke out when the players tried to leave without paying the tab.

“The total bill was in the region of £50,000 and some of the lads tried to leave the club but were prevented from doing so by security," the source explained. “Things got pretty heated and there was a lot of swearing and shouting and things became physical. In terms of preparation for their match, you couldn’t think of anything worse.”

Here's where the misunderstanding came in (via NFL.com):

The players went to a club on Friday night, were sent bottles of champagne and other high-end liquors and ran up a huge bill, sources told Rapoport. The players believed that the bottles were comped, but instead, they were on their bill. When the bill arrived, the players refused to pay it, believing that it was not what they owed. An argument ensued and local police made several arrests.

Following the altercation, four players were arrested "for fraud" by the Met Police. They were released nine hours later and it's reported the club dropped the complaint after the bill was paid.

ESPN identified the Jag players as safety Barry Church, cornerback D.J. Hayden, safety Ronnie Harrison, and safety Jarrod Wilson.

The Jags issued a statement addressing the situation, saying, "The matter is being resolved, and the players are with the team. Any discipline will be handled internally."

Church, Harrison and Wilson are active for Sunday's game. Hayden is inactive after being listed as doubtful with a toe injury leading up to the game.

Glad they were able to get this situated before today's game. What were they doing out partying before a game anyway?
