Jaden Smith Rocks The Cover Of British ‘GQ Style’
Jaden Smith poses in Dior Homme, as he rocks the cover of GQ Style’s latest issue. Inside, the 17-year-old son of Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith talks his connection with his younger sister, Willow, his partnership with Louis Vuitton for its womenswear line, and also says he’s “working towards just fixing the whole planet earth.”
Catch a few highlights here:
On his connection with his sister, Willow:
I’d say it’s like full-on sibling brain connection. I’d say that she’s definitely the female version of me, one hundred per cent, in every single way. And I’d say I’m the male version of her.
On his partnership with Louis Vuitton:
I feel like people are kind of confused about gender norms. I feel like people don’t really get it. I’m not saying that I get it, I’m just saying that I’ve never seen any distinction. I don’t see man clothes and woman clothes, I just see scared people and comfortable people.
On his plans to change the world:
I’m really working towards just fixing the whole planet Earth. I really just want to create a utopia on this planet. I really want to make it so that people don’t have to die to pay bills and just work to survive. So that they can work to actually live and do the things that they love to do.

“If this community doesn’t vote in historic numbers, I don’t know if I will be able to win,” he said.
Despite primary contests in multiple states Tuesday, Rubio had not campaigned anywhere except Florida in the last week. On Sunday, he held his last campaign rally in Miami, his hometown. At that point, he had still not yet beaten Donald Trump in any poll. Most showed him in second place, except the CBS Battleground tracker, which put him in third.
Rubio reflected on his candidacy in an interview with the Miami Herald published on Sunday.
“I don’t think this year’s anything like the past — or anything like the future,” Rubio said, speaking of Trump, the blustery billionaire whose campaign has brought bigotry and violence to the center of the 2016 election.
BREAKING: Marco Rubio: I’m Out of this Presidential Race!
(via Think Progress) Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) suspended his campaign for the presidency on Tuesday, following a crushing primary loss in his home state of Florida.
Just as his mentor former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush was before him, Rubio was outdone by Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump, who won Florida and seems poised to become the Republican presidential nominee.
Rubio’s loss was not totally unexpected. After disappointing losses in the March 8 primaries, his big-dollar contributors began publicly expressing doubts about his campaign. Rubio finished dead last in both Mississippi and Michigan, winning no delegates. On the same day, a national NBC/Wall Street Journal poll also placed him last, Trump, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-FL) and even Ohio governor and perpetual underdog John Kasich.
Still, most donors and Rubio himself said he would hold strong until Florida. But if he didn’t win Florida, Rubio acknowledged it would be tough for him to move forward.

“My whole life, I’ve been told, ‘Being humble is a virtue.’ And now being humble is a weakness, being vain, self-absorbed is a virtue,” Rubio said. “Leadership is not inciting people to get angrier. That’s not leadership. You know what it is? That’s called demagoguery.”
Over the course of his campaign, Rubio had mostly tried to ignore Trump. But he decided to switch gears and go on the attack in late February. His campaign even started selling merchandise with the logo #NeverTrump, urging people to never vote for Trump in the primary.
But many opined that Rubio’s change of tone was too little, too late. Indeed, despite Rubio’s #NeverTrump campaign, he never fully disavowed the billionaire. On Saturday, he said he still intended to support Trump if he becomes the Republican nominee.
“I continue to intend to support the Republican nominee,” he said, “but it’s getting harder every day.”

#RHOA: Kenya Moore Says Footage Of Porsha Williams’ ‘Very Violent’ Fight To Air On ‘RHOA’ Reunion
Viewers of The Real Housewives of Atlanta will apparently see Porsha Williams attack another woman a second time. As the season 8 finale episode aired on Sunday night, Porsha’s co-star, Kenya Moore, tweeted that footage of Porsha getting into a fight during the party that was shown on the finale episode will be shown on the upcoming reunion show.
The season finale episode, which showed Phaedra Parks throwing a Christmas party, did not show Porsha getting into any kind of negative drama. A viewer tweeted that it looks as if Bravo is ignoring that Porsha got into another fight during filming.
Kenya told the viewer to stay tuned as the footage of the fight will be shown on the reunion show. Kenya added that the footage is “very violent.”
Stay tuned that footage will be seen during the reunion and it's very violent https://t.co/PwFgpKw7zD
— KENYA MOORE (@KenyaMoore) March 14, 2016
What is this fight that the viewer and Kenya are talking about? In December, 2015, Radar Online reported that during filming for the last cast event, Porsha got into a fight with a friend. The friend brought a date, who did not get along with Porsha.
“Something about him set Porsha off. Porsha and Jami exchanged words, and then came a push.”
According to the source, the fight escalated to the point where Porsha pulled out some of her friend’s weave and tossed it to the ground. Eventually, things settled down and police were not called to the scene to help.
TMZ reported that Porsha, who had some kind “bad blood” with the date, first tried to get the friend kicked out of the party. When the friend left the venue, Porsha followed her out, shoved her to the ground, punched her, and pulled her hair. TMZ also reported that Bravo’s cameras missed the fight.
Perhaps the fact that Bravo’s cameras missed the fight is the reason why it wasn’t shown on the season 8 finale episode? Yet according to Kenya, footage of the fight was shown during the reunion filming. Perhaps the show’s producers later got a hold of some footage filmed by a witness?
In what may have been a reference to Porsha’s fight, NeNe Leakes tweeted last Thursday that there will be “shocking footage” revealed at the reunion.
A preview of the reunion shows Porsha Williams and Kenya Moore having a very tense moment with one another. Kenya tells Porsha to be quiet, since she doesn’t know what she’s saying unless she’s using her mouth to pleasure a man.
“You need to shut your mouth Porsha. If there’s not a d**k in it, you don’t know what you’re saying.”
In response to a viewer who expressed shock at what Kenya told Porsha at the reunion, Porsha replied that Kenya is “trash.”
The preview shows that even NeNe gets into a little tiff with Porsha. NeNe, perhaps in reference to the Christmas party fight, tells Porsha that she can not put her hands on another person, to which Porsha quickly replies, “Didn’t you choke somebody?”
Porsha’s reply to NeNe was in reference to NeNe’s drama years ago with former co-star Kim Zolciak. In July, 2009, E! News reported that Kim filed a police report against NeNe, claiming that NeNe grabbed her neck and “tried to choke her out” during an argument that took place in April of that year.
It seems that Porsha Williams tried hard to not have a repeat of what happened on the season 6 reunion show happen on the season 8 reunion show. After Bravo released the preview for the upcoming The Real Housewives of Atlanta season 8 reunion show, Porsha shared a photo of herself with Phaedra Parks having fun on the reunion set. Porsha shared that she was “unbothered” at the reunion.
#TEAMEMPIRE: Empire cast and crew want Beyoncé, Adele, and more to guest star
Despite a joke from Terrence Howard, O.J. probably won’t be on Empire’s mid-season premiere on March 30. But, speaking during a Friday night’s PaleyFest panel, the cast and crew revealed the celebs they’d like to see join the show’s impressive guest star roster.
Howard’s wish list includes Adele and Kendrick Lamar, while the name Prince was uttered, and Gabourey Sidibe kept whispering, “Beyoncé, Beyoncé, Beyoncé” into the mic.
Previously, there have been rumblings from team Empire about a guest appearance by Mariah Carey. Actor Jussie Smollett teased a Carey cameo last August but backpedaled in September. And series creator Lee Daniels told EW in September that “Mariah is coming on.”
Director Sanaa Hamri told EW outside of the panel, “Well, from my point of view, I’d like to bring more artists on to perform. I have a wishlist of having D’Angelo on the show, Kendrick Lamar, and French Montana … not too many guest stars, but just about integrating those artists. My passion is music.”
Actress Kaitlin Doubleday also remarked, “The guest stars are amazing, but I think they loved the family in the first season and learning who they were and the drama just between these seven people.”

Chicago police called Blacks N-word in response to Trump’s rally
The ugliness within the Chicago Police Department has made headlines again due to racist comments by an officer. According to a recording obtained by DNAinfo, the incident allegedly occurred on the morning following the Donald Trump rally in Chicago that turned violent.
Several officers were communicating over a Chicago police radio when it occurred. The conversation began in a jovial tone as a few officers cracked jokes over the radio system while communicating with dispatchers. But the conversation was eventually interrupted by another officer who appeared to be commenting on the Donald Trump rally which was eventually canceled.
“Typical f—k–g n—–s,” the man said over the radio. He continued by saying, “Black Lives Matter, my a–. F–k–g n—–s.” One of the officers responded to the dispatcher by telling her to find out which police radio it came from. The dispatcher responded by telling the officer that they can’t get radio numbers, but she would notify her supervisor. The audio stopped shortly after her statement.
The CPD’s corruption has gone unchecked for decades. The issues reached a boiling point when a video was released in November that showed unarmed teenager LaQuan McDonald being executed by a police officer. Mayor Rahm Emanuel and other city officials kept the video from the public for years until they were finally forced to release it at the request of a judge. Other police killings and police brutality incidents have cost the city $500 million due to settlements and court expenses. However, Emanuel remains in office and the Justice Department has yet to issue the city of Chicago and its police department punishment for years of functioning improperly.
An audio of a police officer using the N-word and speaking negatively about Black Lives Matter serves as a vivid reminder of the racism that continues to exist within the CPD.
Police spokesperson Anthony Guglielmi said an investigation by Internal Affairs has started with the hopes of revealing the officer who used the derogatory terms.

The bikini photo was taken just weeks ago in advance of her birthday.
WOMP! Judge Orders Foreclosure of Chad ‘Ochocinco’ Johnson Mansion
OOOPS!, the former NFL football star’s no-show at a recent court hearing has resulted in a judge ordering his mansion to be sold off at public auction.
Court records reveal that the Florida-based mansion will be sold to the highest bidder at the event, which scheduled for April 15th.
The foreclosure stems from a lawsuit from the Long Lake Ranches West Homeowners Association in Broward County, Florida Court. The association accused Johnson of owing them more than $3,500 in fees and costs related to his Davie, Florida home. As a result, the association demanded the court to allow them to evict Johnson out of the mansion and foreclose on the property as well as sell it off at public auction to get the money owed from the sale off the home.
The mansion, which Johnson bought in 2005 for $1,365,000, is notable for being where Johnson was arrested for domestic violence arrest with his ex-wife Evelyn Lozada.
In December (2015), the homeowners association filed a motion for default judgment in light of Johnson’s constant disregard of the case for several months despite being served with legal papers. In addition, the motion included a request to allow the association to kick Johnson out of his home and sell the residence off at auction as soon as possible.
From there, the judge set a hearing for March 2 (2016) in Broward County Court.
If Johnson had appeared for the hearing, the judge would have heard his argument to counter the association’s claims. Nevertheless, the former “Dancing with the Stars” competitor and NFL wide receiver was nowhere to found, prompting the judge to grant the association’s motion for default judgment and closed the case.
Michael Jackson's slice of The Beatles Catalog goes to Sony in $750 million deal
Sony is taking control of one of music's crown jewels: a vast publishing catalog that includes many Beatles songs.
Michael Jackson's estate has agreed to sell its 50% stake in Sony/ATV to its joint venture partner for $750 million.
The deal should help erase debt carried by the Jackson estate, while strengthening Sony (SNE)'s position as a music publisher. Sony/ATV's catalog includes works from artists such as Wyclef Jean, Taylor Swift and the Fab Four.
Sony (SNE) and Jackson formed Sony/ATV in 1995, a decade after the King of Pop paid $41.5 million to acquire the ATV catalog, which included many Beatles songs. Jackson outbid Paul McCartney to clinch the deal.
Publishing rights give the owner control over how music and lyrics are used in radio, TV and film. AMC's Mad Men, for example, reportedly paid $250,000 to use the Beatles song "Tomorrow Never Knows" in a 2012 episode.
During his lifetime, Jackson was among the first to recognize the value in controlling the rights to popular works.
John Branca and John McClain, co-executors of Jackson's estate, said the singer's original purchase of the ATV catalog was "one of the smartest investments in music history."
"This transaction further allows us to continue our efforts of maximizing the value of Michael's estate for the benefit of his children," Branca and McClain said in a statement. "It also further validates Michael's foresight and genius in investing in music publishing."
At the time of his death, Jackson was heavily in debt.
Jackon's master recordings will remain under the estate's control and are not included in the deal. Mijac Music, which owns all songs written by Jackson and select works by other artists, will also remain part of the star's estate.
WOW!!!!

Mo’Nique Discusses, The Secrets of An Open Marriage! It’s not about Orgies!
In 2006 singer Jill Scott interviewed Oscar winning actress and comedian Mo’Nique for Essence Magazine. In the interview Mo’Nique revealed that she and her husband Sydney Hicks had an open marriage. The Precious actress didn’t discuss the ins and outs of the relationship at that time, but she did say ‘Love me enough to be honest with me,’ which lead most to believe that her husband was the one who wanted the open marriage. Ten years later, the still married polyamorous couple is transparent about their open marriage on their podcast “Mo’Nique and Sidney’s Open Relationship,” where they share how they have made their relationship work 10 years later. In a recent interview with The New York Times Mo’Nique and Sidney open up about how they have made their open marriage work. See a few excerpts.
On how she explains her open marriage:
"Mo’Nique: People didn’t understand. They thought it was about swinging and orgies, and then there were individuals who are vehement about God, and they were bringing God into their opinions."
How Mo’Nique handles criticism:
"Mo’Nique: People lost their minds and the criticism has never let up."
Mo’Nique on why she proposed an open marriage:
"Mo’Nique: I wanted to continue to see the gentlemen that I was seeing, and I felt comfortable telling my best friend. I’m grateful he taught me I had to play fair."
On what she learned about being in an open relationship
"Mo’Nique: Sidney had this one thing he had to teach me, and that was reciprocity. He said, ‘If you can have that, it’s only fair that I can have that, too.’"
On their relationship:
"Sidney: Before she was my wife, she was my sister. And there have been moments when she was like my little girl. When you go through all these dynamics with someone, you understand them. We got into this knowing that we both wanted to be with someone who’s going to allow you to be who you are. I think one of the most romantic things you can do as a couple is be honest with each other. And we are."
Why on open marriage works for them
"Sidney: Defining what makes a marriage work is like asking one’s interpretation of success. It’s defined a different way by every person you ask.
Mo’Nique: For us, it’s defined by openness and not fear. If one of us feels jealous, we talk our way through it. What we have is real and honest. It’s changed my life and saved my life."
