#RHoA: Sheree Whitfield Weighs In On “Ups & Downs” Of RHOA Cast Throughout Season 9!
Sheree Whitfield has been through a lot on RHOA throughout the years, but somehow she has found peace with most of her Bravo frenemies. She’s a seasoned housewife with tons of insight, and recently she shared some of her knowledge with The Daily Dish!
The bond between Kandi Burruss Tucker, Phaedra Parks, and Porsha Williams has been broken, and she teased that even Phaedra and Porsha, “don’t always see eye-to-eye.” She shared some advice on how to deal with fractured friendships in the spotlight, and I’ll admit it, she has some wise words on this subject!
“You have to be able to know how to be a good friend to have a good friend,” Shereé asserted. Elaborating further, “So I definitely know that you have to be able to trust somebody, so if you don’t completely trust somebody then you guys can’t really move forward in that capacity because you don’t really think this person has your back 100 percent. Phaedra and Porsha, probably, I think friendships go through things — they’ll be OK.”
Sheree reiterated that her time away from RHOA really opened her eyes to the bigger picture, and I’m thinking all housewives could benefit from a Bravo break every now and then!
“Being away and coming back, you realize what’s important and what’s not important. You’re not always going to agree with everybody or some of the things that they do, but I’ve learned how to pick my battles. And backstabbing is just something I’ve never been a part of and I don’t want to be a part of it,” Sheree explained.
Sheree has already been through her fair share of drama during season 9, but she’s hoping that her comeback can shine light on the more important things; while many disagree, I do think Sheree has intended to be the “peace maker” several times. That being said, sometimes her delivery is way off!
“I want to say that I’m kind of facilitating something for these girls — like a conversation that needs to be had. They’re talking about each other behind each others’ backs and I’m kind of the voice of truth. So instead of being messy — some people say it’s messy — I think it’s just holding them accountable for their words. ‘You guys, get together, talk about it. We don’t all need to be there, but you guys need to have this conversation,’” she wrapped!

Taraji P. Henson and Jackie Chan Had the Sweetest Reunion on the Oscars Red Carpet
While you were ogling all of the gorgeous dresses on the Oscars red carpet on Sunday, you might have missed this adorably sweet moment between the gorgeous Taraji P. Henson and her former costar Jackie Chan. The actors starred together in the 2010 martial arts film The Karate Kid, a remake of the 1984 original. Jackie spotted Taraji, who was there with her Hidden Figures costars, as she strutted her way on the red carpet and immediately swooped in for a hug. Taraji, who was visibly shocked and excited, shouted, "Oh my God, it's so good to see you!"
New Music Video from Keyshia Cole feat. Remy Ma & French Montana – 'You'
You should know this by now, but don’t mess with Keyshia Cole!
The R&B vixen premieres the Benny Boom-directed music video for her comeback single “You” featuring Remy Ma and French Montana. The visuals for the breakup anthem open with Keyshia talking to detectives (one played by producer Harmony Samuels), about the disappearance of her boyfriend, but it’s all in her plan, as KC has him tied up in her closet.
After smearing cake on his face and writing liar on his forehead with lipstick, she calls in Remy, who spits her slick verse while picking out tools to torture him with. Bound and tied to an office chair, Keyshia pushes him off the second story of her house into the pool. (Yikes!). French shows up later to take the now ex-boyfriend, and the woman he cheated with, away in the trunk of his car, leaving them on a dark mountain road at night.
Keyshia is currently prepping for the release of her new album 1111 Reset, which is her first on Epic Records.

Hip Hop News: Lil’ Kim Teases ‘Ladies Night’ Remake with Remy Ma & Cardi B
Twenty years after the original dropped, Lil’ Kim has revealed plans for a remake of her “Ladies Night” classic.
Over the weekend, the Queen Bee performed at the “Hip-Hop & Soul” concert in Reading, Pa. During her set, she spoke about possibly uniting with Remy Ma and Cardi for a reboot of her female rap anthem “Not Tonight (Ladies Night Remix)” from 1997’s Nothing to Lose soundtrack.
“Let me give a shout out to my beautiful sisters that were on this stage earlier,” Kim said at the concert, which also featured Remy and Cardi B. “Cardi B, that’s baby! Remy, bitch, I fucking love your ass. That’s my baby. Maybe y’all might see something in the future. How ’bout that? Another ‘Ladies Night.’ We might be due for that.”
The original “Not Tonight (Ladies Night Remix),” which samples Kool & the Gang’s 1979 hit, featured Da Brat, Angie Martinez, Missy Elliott, Lil’ Kim, and the late Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes.
The remake could potentially include Trina, who voiced her support for the all-female collaboration last month.
“There’s so many girls but the platform is not there for this one to do a record with this one and for this to be a big collaboration,” she told Shade 45. “There’s nobody doing that. When there was ‘Ladies Night,’ there was Kim, Missy, Left Eye, Angie Martinez. That’s still one of the most amazing and best records, classic, of all times, but all females. I’m afraid to think we may never have another record like that.”

Remy reposted an excerpt from that interview on her now-private Instagram account last month, saying she was down for a “Ladies Night” revamp, adding hashtags like #ImWithIt and #2017LadiesNight.
Despite the talk of unity, there’s some division in hip-hop as Remy Ma delivered her vicious “shETHER” diss track over the weekend. Fans believe a Nicki Minaj response is set to follow. Meanwhile, Lil’ Kim has yet to settle her long-running feud with Nicki.
Remy Ma recently released her Plata O Plomo joint project with Fat Joe. Meanwhile, Kim is plotting her fifth studio album with a new single and fashion line due to arrive soon.
Halle Berry On Her Oscars Hair-Do: ‘I Celebrate My Natural Hair by Letting It Be Wild and Free’
During The 89th Academy Awards, Halle Berry turned heads as she debuted a new hair-do! She rocked a loose curl ‘do which she felt perfectly accented her Atelier Versace gown.
“I have always marched to the beat of my own drum, and I think this red-carpet look encapsulates that,” Berry told Vogue.
The actress went on to explain that her gown made her feel “feminine and fresh” and that she wanted to “celebrate [her] natural hair by allowing it to be wild and free.” However, the internet had mixed emotions about her hair and expressed it through memes all night long.
So about Halle’s hair, is it, a hair-do, or a hair-don’t?
The ‘All Def Movie Awards’ Ice Cube, Amber Rose, Mike Epps all snag one.
Russell Simmons’ second annual All Def Movie Awards returned Sunday night, showcasing the diversity in the movie industry. The unconventional ceremony was created in 2016, following the #OscarsSoWhite controversy. Hosted by Mike Epps, the ceremony aired on Fusion, in direct competition with the Oscar telecast over on ABC. During the ceremony, Simmons explained,
"It’s not that people are bad or racist or anything like that, but it’s that people aren’t sensing it. I don’t have anything against the Academy Awards, not at all. My judgment of them is not a dislike of the individuals, but it’s the infrastructure that they’re working on that needs change. They are aware of the change that needs to be done and they have to be insightful. We need everybody together making these choices because then we reflect America."

Ravens Safety Matt Elam Busted for Allegedly Selling Drugs on the Side
*Baltimore Ravens safety Matt Elam was arrested on multiple drug charges in Miami stemming from a traffic stop on Saturday night (Feb. 24).
The 2013 first-round pick was charged with one count of cannabis possession, one count of possession of cannabis with intent to sell or deliver, one count of possession of a controlled substance and one count of reckless driving, police said.
According to ESPN.com, Elam was arrested at 7:16 p.m. Saturday after his blue Range Rover passed an unmarked police car “at a high rate of speed” and swerved into the lane in front of the police car, causing its driver to pump the brakes in order to avoid a collision, according to charging documents. He then almost struck vehicles in front of him by following too closely, according to police.
After police attempted to conduct a traffic stop, Elam sped up and failed to yield immediately “in attempt to evade detectives,” police said. Once Elam pulled over, police detected a strong odor of freshly burning marijuana and a big cloud of smoke emitting from inside the vehicle.
A search revealed a Gucci book bag on the floor of the driver’s side that included 126.2 grams of marijuana, six oxycodone pills weighing 3.1 grams, $947, a Rolex, a men’s necklace with white stones and a men’s bracelet with white stones.
One of Elam’s passengers, Calvin Stewart, possessed a loaded semi-automatic pistol in his waistband, and told the cops he did not have a permit to carry a concealed weapon.
Police said they were patrolling that neighborhood because of recent robberies and burglaries in the area.
The 32nd overall pick in the draft four years ago, Elam is scheduled to become a free agent next month. The Ravens declined to pick up his fifth-year option a year ago.
“We are aware of the arrest of Matt Elam,” the Ravens said in a statement. “Matt is not in our plans for the 2017 Ravens.”
NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy said the league was looking into the incident.
This arrests marks Elam’s second for substance-related incidents. In October 2015, he was suspended for one game for violating the NFL’s substance abuse policy. He had self-reported the violation, team officials said at the time.
According to ESPN.com, Elam has been one of the most disappointing first-round picks in Ravens history. He was benched from the starting lineup in the middle of the 2014 season after struggling to cover receivers deep and missing tackles. Elam played on special teams last season after being designated to return off injured reserve.
