Sasha Lane is Stunning on the May 2018 Cover of Allure Magazine
Sasha Lane came on my radar in 2016 during the Cannes festival and she continues to make moves. She is the May 2018 cover star of Allure magazine title the '2018 Disruptors Issue'. On the cover which was shot by Scott Trindle, Sasha is wearing a ATTICO SPRING 2018 dress & a FOUNDRAE ring. In the issue, she talks everything from her new film, not wanting to be famous and more. Continue below to read some excerpts from her interview. For more on Sasha's feature, visit Allure.com and pick up a copy on newsstand.
On her fame:
Yeah, I’m terrified. I’m so happy, and I thank God every single day, but I damn near cry every single day, too, because this is so much. I was never the person who was like, I want to be famous. I pray for people to leave me the fuck alone for five seconds, and I keep my hair in my face because I don’t like to be open.
On filming:
When I’m filming, I’m either learning or I’m healing. My work gets to be therapy. My work gets to be fun. It gets to be something I can put all of my thoughts and pain into. And when it stops doing that for me, I’ll be done. And I’ll go write poetry on an island and say ‘Deuces’ to everyone.

#RHoA: Marlo Hampton says Kenya's Lying About Me Being A Call Girl
'Real Housewives of Atlanta' star Marlo Hampton says Kenya Moore is spreading lies and rumors by insinuating she's a call girl and prostitute when the real sham is Kenya's own marriage.
TMZ spoke to Marlo after this week's 'RHOA' reunion show where the two went at it. For those who missed it ... Kenya accused Marlo of being a "trick" and taking $20k from a man named John to blackmail NeNe Leakes.
Marlo says Kenya's attack totally blindsided her because she wasn't prepared to defend herself against Kenya's BS, but it sure seemed like Marlo was prepared when she spoke to us ... she even challenges Kenya to take a pregnancy test.
As for Marlo's relationship status, she says Kenya and the other cast members know she was in a serious 5-year relationship, but the real relationship that is over for Marlo is the one with Kenya.
Well what do you think?

#HipHopNews: Will Kanye West Use Jan Adams’ Photo the Dr who killed his Mom For his Album Cover?
Kanye West hasn’t back down from his Twitter rampage. After dropping two new singles — the troll-fastic “Lift Yourself” and “Ye Vs. The People” with T.I. — Kanye has returned with ideas for his solo album’s cover art.
On Saturday (April 28), Ye shared a text exchange with someone named Wes — presumed to be artist and longtime collaborator Wes Lang — that included a photo of plastic surgeon Jan Adams. Adams performed an elective cosmetic surgery on Ye’s mother Donda West that led to her 2007 death.
“This is my album cover,” he wrote. “This is plastic surgeon Jan Adams. The person who performed my moms final surgery. Do you have any title ideas? I want to forgive and stop hating.”
The conversation led to a revelation about love and forgiveness.
“I think it’s exactly what you should use,” Wes continued. “Love love love love. I’m so tired of saying and thinking the word hate. It’s wild man. After the night I came by your house and talked I’ve been forgetting and forgiving and only thinking about loving people. That was an important talk for me.”
Kanye replied, “I love you bro. I love Gabe … I love the world. I’m gonna cross out my Fuck The World tattoo and put Love The World.” In fact, a few hours later, he did.
Whether Yeezy is serious about using Adams’ photo for the cover art remains to be seen but the follow-up to 2016’s The Life Of Pablo is expected to arrive on June 1.
Ye’s return to Twitter hasn’t been all weird, esoteric and pro-Trump tweets. Ye also announced several impending release dates for upcoming projects, including Pusha T’s King Pusha on May 25, Ye’s collaborative project with Kid Cudi, Kids See Ghost, on June 8 and Nas’ album on June 15.
#BoxOfficeNews:'Avengers: Infinity War' Obliterates the Box Office with $250M Domestically & $630M Worldwide Opening!
Audiences assembled worldwide as Disney and Marvel's Avengers: Infinity War broke both the domestic opening weekend box office record and worldwide opening record with a massive $250 million domestically and $630 million worldwide. In its wake, the majority of films on the weekend box office chart fell dramatically, though fellow Marvel Cinematic Universe release Black Panther improved its position from eighth place last weekend to a spot in this weekend's top five, truly making this a Marvel-ous weekend.
Infinity War's opening weekend bests the previous record of $247.9 million set by Star Wars: The Force Awakens back in December 2015 by just over $2 million, but it's also worth mentioning Disney under-estimated Black Panther's $202 million opening by nearly $10 million on Sunday. The studio also under-estimated The Avengers's performance by $7 million and under-estimated Avengers: Age of Ultron by $3.6 million. As such, don't be surprised to see Infinity War's debut blossom come actuals on Monday afternoon. At this moment, the film accounts for 84.4% of the domestic top twelve, second only to Ultron's 84.5% market share.
Additional domestic records of note include the largest single Saturday gross, largest single Sunday gross, largest April opening, largest Spring opening, widest PG-13 release and fastest film to $150, $200 and $250 million.
Internationally, Infinity War delivered a monstrous $380 million from approximately 72% of the international marketplace. The debut is the second largest to Fate of the Furious though its important to note that film had the benefit of China grosses over its opening weekend, which represented $185 million (41.7%) of its $443 million international debut. Altogether, Infinity War's global debut reached $630 million, shattering the previous record of $541.9 million set by Fate of the Furious and doing so without China, where the film will open on May 11.
Comedian Michelle Wolf is not here for your Criticism of her White House Correspondents' Dinner 2018 Jokes!
Comedian Michelle Wolf, who hosted the 2018 White House Correspondents’ Dinner, is responding to criticism over her jokes made at the expense of Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders.
“I have to say I’m a little star-struck. I love you as Aunt Lydia in ‘The Handmaid’s Tale,’” Michelle said about the Press Secretary at the roast. “Every time Sarah steps up to the podium, I get excited. I’m not really sure what we’re going to get, you know? A press briefing, a bunch of lies or divided into softball teams. It’s shirts and skins, and this time don’t be such a little b*tch, Jim Acosta.”
“I actually really like Sarah. I think she’s very resourceful. But she burns facts and then she uses that ash to create a perfect smokey eye. Like maybe she’s born with it, maybe it’s lies. It’s probably lies,” Michelle added.
She also commented on the Press Secretary’s name. “Is it Sarah Sanders? Is it Sarah Huckabee Sanders? Is it Cousin Huckabee? Is it Auntie Huckabee Sanders? Like, what’s Uncle Tom but for white women who disappoint other white women?” Michelle said.
Michelle‘s comedy routine drew criticism from……Well look below.

Legendary Actress Michelle Pfeiffer Joins Angelina Jolie in Maleficent 2
Disney began its current run of live-action adaptations of the studio's animated classics with Maleficent and talks of the sequel have been ongoing since 2015. Now, Maleficent 2 is getting off of the ground and Michelle Pfeiffer is reportedly in talks to play the Queen, joining Angelina Jolie and Elle Fanning. Production is expected to begin this year, so it makes sense that the casting process would be taking place currently.
While Michelle Pfeiffer is in talks to join the Maleficent 2 cast, Deadpool star Ed Skrein has officially signed on and will be playing the villain in the sequel. Angelina Jolie and Elle Fanning will both be reprising their roles from the first movie, while Pfeiffer will play the Queen, if she ends up signing on to the project. Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales director Joachim Ronning will direct Maleficent 2 from a script by Jez Butterworth and Linda Woolverton. As previously noted, it is not clear what the story for the sequel will be at this time.
While reviews for Maleficent were mixed, the movie took in over $750 million worldwide, so the idea of the sequel were planted very early on. Angelina Jolie and her performance was heavily praised at the time of release of the first movie, and her name being attached is a big deal for Maleficent 2. The addition of Michelle Pfeiffer is also exciting and makes sense, since she just wrapped production on another Disney role for Marvel's Ant-Man and the Wasp, which is all set to come out later this summer.
