#RHOP: Crystal Kung Minkoff Says Wendy Osefo ‘Doubled Down’ on Claims Despite Arrest
The Season 10 Real Housewives of Potomac reunion ended with Wendy Osefo addressing her extensive list of felony charges, and Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum Crystal Kung Minkoff had some thoughts about it.
At the reunion, Wendy retold the entire story of the burglary that prosecutors claim never happened in great detail, all in an attempt to prove a point to her castmates that she felt blindsided by the arrest.
RHOP fans were squirming in their seats watching that moment play out, and so was Crystal. She doesn’t think it was a wise legal move for Wendy to keep talking about the burglary on television.
Karen Huger made a valid point at the RHOP reunion, according to Crystal
Crystal spoke about Wendy’s legal crisis during the March 9 episode of the Humble Brag podcast, which she hosts with Cynthia Bailey. The two of them reacted to Part 3 of the RHOP Season 10 reunion and Wendy’s verbose comments about her arrest.
At the reunion, immediately after Wendy finished telling her highly detailed recollection of the burglary,” Karen Huger jumped in with some tough love. She told Wendy that she should stop talking so much. According to Crystal, Karen’s tough love was just what Wendy needed.
“Karen is just like, — which I agree — ‘I can’t believe you’re here. I can’t believe your lawyers allowed you to come to this reunion and talk about it like you did nothing wrong.’ There’s so much evidence against them, but she doubled down,” Crystal said.
Crystal continued, “She tells this story so cleanly. I guess in her mind, this is the story, and that’s it, and I will be unwavering in this story. I’m not an attorney, but I don’t know. I just think you lay low. Skip the reunion, send your love. We’ll get through this as a family, wrap it up.”
Although Andy Cohen grilled Wendy on the arrest both at the beginning and end of the reunion, Crystal felt like Wendy showed up “fighting the other girls.” She said it seemed like Wendy went to the reunion “as if nothing happened.”
“Her charges could put her in prison over 20 years,” Crystal added.
She continued, “I would not be wasting my time on that couch. I would be with my kids. I don’t know. That’s my thing. It’s just really, really sad to me.”
The week after the RHOP reunion aired, Wendy and Eddie appeared in court. The two will now be tried separately, and Eddie allegedly waived his right to a speedy trial. Wendy, on the other hand, did not. It’s expected that her side of the case will be tried sooner rather than later.

#MusicNews: GoGo Morrow Releases New EP “SET” (Stream)
Rising R&B powerhouse GoGo Morrow has officially entered a new chapter of her career with the release of her latest EP, SET, via MNRK Music Group. Executive produced by Grammy Award-winning hitmaker Harmony “H-Money” Samuels, the project marks a significant evolution for the Philadelphia native as she moves from high-profile backing vocals to center stage.
Morrow, previously recognized for her vocal contributions to Lady Gaga and performances with Kanye West, describes the new body of work as a manifesto of self-preservation. “‘SET’ is my anthem of emotional independence—the soundtrack to my liberation from heartbreak,” Morrow stated. “It’s me rejecting love’s illusions: unapologetic, untouchable, and fully in control of my own story.”
Sonically, SET serves as a bridge between 90s-inspired R&B and contemporary textured production. The EP features a diverse range of tracks that showcase Morrow’s vocal versatility:
“Touch Me”: A soulful, funk-driven exploration of desire.
“Shoulda Coulda”: A high-energy track rooted in bold, rhythmic R&B.
“La La Lies”: A club-ready, horn-heavy anthem that reinforces the project’s confident tone.
“Emotionally Unavailable”: A deeply personal reflection on defensive boundaries and the complexities of modern romance.
The release is accompanied by a new visualizer for “La La Lies,” directed by Keaton Brownlow. The visual emphasizes Morrow’s intentional aesthetic, featuring cinematic framing and her signature blue hair, which has become a focal point of her brand identity.
The rollout for SET has already garnered significant momentum following a recent performance on On The Radar. The appearance provided an intimate preview of the EP’s high-energy choreography and storytelling, solidifying Morrow’s reputation as a formidable live performer.
Industry analysts note that SET represents a shift toward total creative control for Morrow. By exploring themes of being “hard to love” and choosing personal peace over romantic instability, the EP positions Morrow as a relatable yet aspirational figure in the current R&B landscape.

#HipHopNews: Dr. Dre Finally Reaches Billionaire Status
Dr. Dre has reportedly reached billionaire status. On Tuesday (March 10), Forbes released its updated The Richest People in the World list. The legendary producer made the cut for the first time, with a net worth of $1 billion, which has mostly been obtained from music and his headphone empire. Dre now ranks as the 3,332 richest person on the planet, tied with Beyoncé. The new ranking makes Dr. Dre the second-richest hip-hop artist (behind Jay-Z) and only the sixth musician on the list.
Jay-Z, who officially became hip-hop's first billionaire in 2019, Hov has pushed his net worth to $2.8 billion with investments in D’Ussé Cognac, Armand de Brignac (Ace of Spades Champagne), Tidal, Roc Nation and more.
Dre's official entry into the Forbes list comes 12 years after he announced he was hip-hop's first billionaire during the sale of his company, Beats Electronics, to Apple Music for $3 billion in 2014. When everything was finalized, Dre reportedly took home about $500 million from the sale, which made him the richest hip-hop artist at the time but short of billionaire status.
In 2022, Dre's net worth had dipped to $400 million. The following year, he reportedly sold a portion of his music assets to Shamrock Holdings and Universal Music Group for the asking price of $250 million, including "two of his solo albums and his share of N.W.A. artist royalties; his producer royalties; and the writer’s share of his song catalog where he doesn’t own publishing, which may include the writer’s share of songs on his The Chronic album," according to Billboard.
Dre has continued to stack wealth through investments and real estate. Most recently, he sold his Malibu, Calif., home for $16.5 million.

Michael Jackson estate scores legal win amid extortion battle
A Los Angeles judge ordered the Michael Jackson estate’s dispute with former family friend Frank Cascio to proceed in arbitration, while the estate alleges a $213 million extortion scheme and Cascio’s siblings pursue separate federal lawsuits claiming childhood abuse by Jackson.
Michael Jackson's estate has scored a win in court as representatives take legal action against a former Jackson family friend whom they've accused of extortion.
In a March 4 ruling filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court, obtained by USA TODAY March 10, Judge Michael E. Whitaker granted the Jackson estate's petition to compel arbitration, meaning the parties can take their legal battle out of court. The decision found that the estate had "a valid and binding arbitration provision" within its legal agreement with Frank Cascio, who'd signed the paperwork in 2020.
The estate must file a proposed order by March 18, with any objections due by April 1, the judge ruled.
In their July 9 petition, the Michael Jackson Company and its officers John G. Branca and John McClain – who are also co-executors of the Jackson estate – accused Cascio of attempting to carry out a "$213 million civil extortion scheme." The petition alleged that he and his family "demanded substantial amounts of money, otherwise they threatened to concoct false allegations against Michael which were the opposite of their prior glowing statements."
Cascio, who wrote the 2011 memoir "My Friend Michael," and his family "held themselves out as Michael Jackson’s 'second family'" for three decades and have been among the pop icon's "most passionate defenders," the petition stated.
Michael Jackson estate's extortion claim is 'groundless,' Cascio lawyer says
In a statement shared with USA TODAY on March 10, Cascio's attorney, Howard King, said, "The only matter moving to arbitration is the Estate’s groundless claims against Frank Cascio that he attempted to extort the Estate.
"Given that Frank was already participating in an arbitration, the decision was not noteworthy. The decision does not affect the Federal Court action brought against the Jackson companies by the other four Cascio children."
Hollywood power attorney Mark Geragos, a former supporter of Jackson's who represented Cascio until February, argued in previous filings that the so-called acquisition and consulting agreement was "unconscionable" and should be voided. Cascio alleged he'd signed "under duress" as he did not fully understand the legalese in the agreement, which nine of his family members had already signed, and did not have his own legal representation.
"This petition is not a good-faith effort to compel arbitration pursuant to a valid contract, but rather an attempt by Petitioners [the Michael Jackson Company and estate] to shield themselves and the Estate of Michael Jackson from accountability and public scrutiny," Cascio's Oct. 6 opposition read.
It continued, "In doing so, Petitioners seek to weaponize an unlawful agreement to silence victims of childhood sexual abuse, smear and discredit Respondents, and preserve Michael Jackson’s carefully protected legacy and the Estate’s reputational and financial interests."
On Feb. 27, four of Cascio's siblings sued the Michael Jackson Company and estate, alleging they were sex trafficked as children in the 1990s, with Jackson's employees facilitating and concealing his alleged abuse.
Jackson, who died in 2009 at age 50, was "a serial child predator who, over the course of more than a decade, drugged, raped, and sexually assaulted each of the Plaintiffs, beginning when some of them were as young as seven or eight," their lawsuit stated.
The release of the bombshell HBO documentary "Leaving Neverland" in 2019 "deprogrammed" the siblings and "forced them, for the first time, to become conscious of the reality: Jackson’s abuse was wrong and had severely damaged them," their lawsuit stated.
In the complaint, which was filed in California federal court, they claimed they were compelled under pretenses to sign the same agreement as their brother, Frank Cascio, in 2019.
The document they were induced to sign was described to them as a "life rights" agreement, but rather it released the Jackson estate "from liability for Jackson's crimes," per the lawsuit. Had the family "understood the full meaning of the Document, they would not have signed it."
The Cascios alleged representatives of Jackson's estate reached out to them around April 2024 "to increase the estate's compensation," and this time, the siblings retained their own legal counsel. After this, they "demanded compensation proportional to Jackson's crimes and the harm they caused," which, per their lawsuit, prompted the estate to release "false and defamatory statements" about them to the press.
Marty Singer, an attorney for Jackson's company, said in a March 2 statement to USA TODAY that the estate "reluctantly paid the Cascios $2.8 million each over five years to protect Michael's family as well as future projects important to Michael's legacy and fans, which were worth hundreds of millions of dollars to the Estate for Michael's beneficiaries."

Gwen Stefani credits spiritual epiphany for getting pregnant with her third child at 44
Gwen Stefani shared that she had a spiritual epiphany before conceiving her and her ex-husband, Gavin Rossdale’s youngest son, Apollo, at the age of 44.
The No Doubt songstress, who is a practicing Catholic, recalled working with a former “atheist Jew” who converted to Judaism during a recent interview with Hallow: Prayer & Meditation.
“He was studying the Torah, and he had this big epiphany awakening, and he start[ed] talking to me about the Torah.”
Gwen Stefani, seen here in March, revealed that she had a spiritual epiphany before getting pregnant with her youngest son at the age of 44.
During an interview with Hallow: Prayer & Meditation, the hitmaker recalled working with a former “atheist Jew” who later practiced Judaism.
“I was desperate at this point during all this,” Stefani, now 56, said. “I really wanted to have another baby. I really did. I couldn’t, and I was old.”
The “Hollaback Girl” singer shared she started having deep conversations with the unnamed man, which were “waking [her] up.”
She explained her now 19-year-old son, Kingston, once approached her, begging for another sibling.
“He was studying the Torah, and he had this big epiphany awakening, and he start[ed] talking to me about the Torah,” she explained.
“I’m sorry, your mommy is too old to have a baby,” Stefani recalled telling her son when he was around 8 years old in 2013.
The “Just a Girl” singer shared she would hear Kingston praying every night for her to conceive.
“It was like, four weeks later, and I was pregnant with Apollo,” she stated. “I had him at 44 years old, naturally,” she said, describing it as a “full-on gift. And that was the first miracle.”
At one point, the hitmaker’s eldest son, Kingston, started praying for her to get pregnant. Pictured: Gavin Rossdale and his three sons. gavinrossdale/Instagram
Four weeks later, Stefani got pregnant with her son Apollo, seen here.
Stefani shares sons Kingston, Zuma, 17, and Apollo, 12, with Rossdale, with whom she was married from 2002 to 2016.
The “Rich Girl” singer, who tied the knot to Rossdale in the Catholic Church, got divorced in 2016 and their marriage annulled by the church in 2021, per Us Weekly.
“It was a huge relief for Gwen because she wanted to get married [to Blake Shelton] by her priest and have the marriage recognized by the Catholic church,” a source told the outlet.
The “Hollaback” girl, seen here with her son, and Rossdale are parents to three kids. gwenstefani/Instagram
Stefani has since moved on with Blake Shelton, seen here in 2024. gwenstefani/Instagram
She and Shelton married that same year.
Stefani and the country singer, 49, who started dating in 2015, got married at the latter’s Oklahoma ranch, which has a chapel on site.
Magic Johnson's Child EJ Is Proud of Dwayne Wade's Daughter Zaya: 'I'm Happy That She's Happy'
EJ Johnson, the child of NBA legend Magic Johnson, can relate to Zaya Wade, the transgender daughter of former professional basketball player Dwyane Wade.
Johnson, 33, was a guest on the Tuesday (March 10) episode of Reality With the King and spoke to host Carlos King about their childhood and relating to Zaya, 18. While EJ is queer and gender-fluid and prefers they/them pronouns (though, they say in the interview, “‘she’ is cool”), Zaya identifies as a woman and came out as transgender in 2020 when she was 12 years old. EJ, who Johnson shares with his wife, Cookie Johnson, publicly came out in 2013, three years after coming out to their family.
Around the 45-minute mark of the video below, EJ said that they’ve met Zaya twice, and has encouraged the teenager to reach out if she needed guidance.
“She went to my high school as well, so we have some similarities,” EJ said.
“It's one of those things where it's like, there's nothing really I can say or do, because that's your journey,” EJ continued. “And they also said some horrible and stupid things about her, and the same thing they [said] were the horrible stupid things they were saying about me. So it's like, here we are again.”
EJ added that those negative comments stem not from anything wrong with them or Wade, but instead from the critics’ own internal anxieties.
“I'm not going up against anything that I actually really need to be concerned about, because these are all everybody else's fears and everybody else's concerns and everybody else's viewpoints of the world that are being challenged by somebody living their truth or living their life the way they want to live it,” they said. “It's just absurd. But I'm happy that she's happy.”
To deter homophobic and queerphobic remarks, in 2024, Zaya and her father launched the LGBTQIA+ friendly platform Translatable to keep queer, non-binary and trans youth safe online.

Magic Johnson's Child EJ Is Proud of Dwayne Wade's Daughter Zaya: 'I'm Happy That She's Happy'
Johnson, 33, was a guest on the Tuesday (March 10) episode of Reality With the King and spoke to host Carlos King about their childhood and relating to Zaya, 18. While EJ is queer and gender-fluid and prefers they/them pronouns (though, they say in the interview, “‘she’ is cool”), Zaya identifies as a woman and came out as transgender in 2020 when she was 12 years old. EJ, who Johnson shares with his wife, Cookie Johnson, publicly came out in 2013, three years after coming out to their family.
Around the 45-minute mark of the video below, EJ said that they’ve met Zaya twice, and has encouraged the teenager to reach out if she needed guidance.
“She went to my high school as well, so we have some similarities,” EJ said.
“It's one of those things where it's like, there's nothing really I can say or do, because that's your journey,” EJ continued. “And they also said some horrible and stupid things about her, and the same thing they [said] were the horrible stupid things they were saying about me. So it's like, here we are again.”
EJ added that those negative comments stem not from anything wrong with them or Wade, but instead from the critics’ own internal anxieties.
“I'm not going up against anything that I actually really need to be concerned about, because these are all everybody else's fears and everybody else's concerns and everybody else's viewpoints of the world that are being challenged by somebody living their truth or living their life the way they want to live it,” they said. “It's just absurd. But I'm happy that she's happy.”
To deter homophobic and queerphobic remarks, in 2024, Zaya and her father launched the LGBTQIA+ friendly platform Translatable to keep queer, non-binary and trans youth safe online.
‘Love & Hip Hop’ Star Alexis Skyy Faces Lawsuit Over Alleged Lobby Attack in Atlanta
Love & Hip Hop star Alexis Skyy is accused of assault. According to a complaint reviewed by Complex, the 31-year-old reality star is facing a lawsuit from former associate Anthony Gaskin, who claims Skyy and two others attacked him in the lobby of his upscale Atlanta apartment complex in October 2024.
Gaskin says he was “violently attacked” by Skyy, Robmira Taylor, and Robert Thorne after they were allegedly "lying in wait" for him in the building.
The lawsuit, filed on February 3 and first reported by TMZ on Tuesday (March 10), also names the apartment complex as a defendant, alleging the property had inadequate security and failed to protect him during the confrontation.
Gaskin says the incident left him with injuries that “required subsequent medical, dental, psychological and chiropractic treatment.” He claims the alleged assault led to public panic attacks and lost wages because he could not work while recovering.
He is seeking punitive damages, with the final amount to be determined at trial.
TMZ reported that Skyy previously claimed Gaskin attacked her in front of her child three weeks before the lobby confrontation, though Gaskin denies that accusation and says he only shared his opinions about her parenting.
Skyy's manager TC Copper addressed the situation in a statement to TMZ reading, “Thank you for reaching out with this alleged incident. At this time, we are focusing on resolving this situation privately and legally.
“Also, in the video footage Alexis was exiting the building when he called her a bitch and the person that was with the victim stopped anything from happening with him and Alexis."

Ballet Star Misty Copeland Reacts to Timothee Chalamet's Ballet Comments After Taking Part In 'Marty Supreme' Promo
Misty Copeland is speaking out about Timothee Chalamet‘s recent, controversial viral comments about opera and ballet.
The 43-year-old star ballet dancer, who retired from the American Ballet Theatre last fall, shared her own remarks on the 30-year-old actor saying no one cares about ballet or opera anymore.
In a new TikTok video of her speaking at an event, Misty expressed her thoughts, after being one of the many celebs Timothee tapped for Marty Supreme promo.
“First I have to say that it’s very interesting that he invited me to be a part of promoting Marty Supreme with respect to my art form,” she said. “But I think that it’s important that we acknowledge that, yes, this is an art form that is not ‘popular’ and a part of pop culture as movies are. But that doesn’t mean it doesn’t have enduring relevance in culture.”
“I think it’s often mistaken when something is popular that it’s meaningful or more impactful. There’s a reason that the opera and ballet have been around for over 400 years,” Misty continued. “I think when you have access and you have opportunity to be a art of something that can change your life, and that’s the work that I’ve done been doing with the Misty Copeland Foundation.”
“That’s the work I’ve done my whole career, is to bring more people into it so that people do understand the importance and the relevance of it in our communities and our culture, and you see it reflected everywhere,” she added. “I mean, he wouldn’t be an actor and have the opportunities he has as a movie star if it weren’t for opera and ballet, and their relevance in that medium. All of these mediums have a space and we shouldn’t be comparing them.”
Misty is just one of many celebs who spoken out against Timothee‘s comments, including the ladies of The View and many more.

Colman Domingo Reacts to Paris Jackson's Criticism of 'Michael' Biopic: 'I Hope She Loves The Tribute We Made'
Colman Domingo is speaking out in response to some criticism of his upcoming movie Michael.
The 56-year-old two-time Oscar nominated actor will star as Jackson family patriarch Joe Jackson in the forthcoming biopic about the late Michael Jackson.
Last fall, Michael‘s daughter Paris Jackson called out the biopic and Colman‘s previous comments that Paris and her brother Prince were “very much in support of” the film.
Now, he’s reacting to what she said, and says he hopes she comes around to liking the Antoine Fuqua-directed movies.
“I hope that she eventually loves the tribute that we made about her father,” he told WSJ Magazine.
He added that his original comments were “conflated” and “taken out of context,” saying the original article was amended to “more fully” capture what was said.
Colman told the mag he did reach out to Paris through Instagram DM after, and she responded with a heart emoji.
The Michael biopic, which stars Paris‘ cousin Jaafar Jackson as her late father, is set to hit theaters and IMAX on April 24thth

Mickey Rourke Defaults in Eviction Case, Lease on Los Angeles Home Canceled
Judgment was entered in Mickey Rourke's eviction case in Los Angeles
The judgement canceled the actor's lease and awarded possession of the property to the landlord, according to docs filed March 9
The landlord previously demanded $59,100 in back rent
A California court entered a judgment in Mickey Rourke's eviction case.
According to court documents obtained by PEOPLE, a judgment was entered in favor of landlord Eric T. Goldie in an unlawful detainer case against the 73-year-old actor and former wrestler.
The judgment, which was filed March 9 in Los Angeles County Superior Court, was entered "by default" which likely means the Oscar nominee did not respond to the complaint or appear to defend himself within the required time under California law.
As a result, Goldie was granted possession of the property located on Drexel Avenue in Los Angeles.
The judgment also states that the rental agreement has been canceled and the lease forfeited, meaning the Sin City actor no longer has a legal right to occupy the home.
The order indicates the judgment was for "possession only," meaning it was focused on returning control of the property to the landlord rather than awarding financial damages in the case.
The development comes after Rourke was previously served with a notice demanding he pay $59,100 in back rent or vacate the home within three days, according to court filings from December.
In January, he was photographed moving his belongings out of the home. Around the same time, a woman named Liya-Joelle Jones, who described herself as the assistant to Rourke's manager Kimberly Hines, launched a GoFundMe launched to support the actor.
In a video shared to his Instagram on Jan. 5, Rourke addressed the campaign and claimed he had no knowledge of it.
He said he was "frustrated," "confused" and didn't understand why someone created a GoFundMe campaign on his behalf.
"That's not me, okay?" he continued. "I'd rather, if I needed money, I wouldn't ask for no f--king charity. I'd rather stick a gun up my ass and pull the trigger."
Referencing "whoever did this," Rourke added, "I wouldn't know what a GoFundMe foundation is in a million years. My life is very simple, I wouldn't go to outside sources like that."
After Rourke balked, Hines told The Hollywood Reporter, "We said, 'Mickey, there’s some people that want to help you out.' He’s like, 'OK, great.' I don’t think he understood, and now it’s taken on this media frenzy, and he flipped out."
Rourke, who had been living in a West Hollywood hotel after moving out of the home, has since urged donors to reclaim their money.
The Breakfast Club Moves to Netflix, Sees Sharp Drop in YouTube Viewership
*Several major podcasts and radio shows have recently migrated to Netflix, with The Breakfast Club among the most notable. While the program continues to air on radio, full interviews are no longer available on YouTube — meaning fans must now subscribe to Netflix to watch Charlamagne Tha God, DJ Envy, and Jess Hilarious in action.
The Breakfast Club is not alone in making the move. Hip-hop program Rory & Mal has also shifted its content to the platform, and both shows have experienced a measurable drop in online engagement and viral clip activity since the transition, Hot New Hip Hop reports.
For The Breakfast Club, the numbers tell a stark story. The Power 105 YouTube page drew 27 million viewers in February 2025. One year later, that figure had fallen to 13 million — a decline directly tied to the Netflix deal.
Financially, the arrangement is attractive in the short term. Netflix pays upfront for a full year of content, a sum that likely outpaces what the show would earn through YouTube ad revenue alone. But industry observers caution that the long-term trade-off could be costly. If The Breakfast Club eventually returns to YouTube, there is no guarantee its former audience will follow — and a diminished reach could have lasting consequences for the show’s cultural influence.
Netflix is moving aggressively to expand its podcast footprint. Beyond The Breakfast Club, the streamer recently struck a deal with iHeartMedia — similar to its earlier Spotify partnership in October — bringing shows such as “My Favorite Murder,” “Bobby Bones Presents: The Bobbycast,” “Behind the Bastards,” “Dear Chelsea,” “This Is Important,” “Joe and Jada,” and “The Psychology of Your 20s” to the platform. The push signals Netflix’s ambition to compete more directly with YouTube for dominance in the podcast space.
“With this partnership, we are incredibly excited to offer our members such unmatched variety, and to deliver highly entertaining podcasts featuring some of the world’s most dynamic personalities,” Lauren Smith, Netflix vice president of content licensing and programming strategy said, per The Hollywood Reporter.
