#RHOA: Porsha Williams is playing Peek a Boo with her Daughter’s Face!
Since giving birth just a couple weeks ago, Porsha Williams has been giving fans little sneak peeks at her daughter, Pilar Jhena — and the latest snapshot shows off Baby PJ in her element.

"Had to repost 'my baby' pudding pop! She is being a big girl playing with her toys," The Real Housewives of Atlanta mama shared about the newborn. And while she didn't show off her full face, we did catch a glimpse at her cute, little cheeks.

While Porsha hasn't revealed just when we will see more of Baby PJ, she may have dropped a major hint about her baby girl during the Season 11 reunion: "I have one other name picked out. If the baby comes out and she looks exactly like me, then I will name her Porsha Jr. But if she looks like her dad [Dennis McKinley], which I think she will 'cause I saw her head, I'm gonna name her the other P name."
Well, considering her name is Pilar and not Porsha, we have a sneaking suspicion of which of her parents she looks more like...
And if you're wondering all about Porsha's journey to motherhood, it'll be featured in the upcoming three-part special The Real Housewives of Atlanta Porsha's Having a Baby, premiering Sunday, April 28 at 8/7c.


#Empire: According to Taraji, Jussie will return to Empire next season!
Jussie Smollett isn’t  jobless in Hollywood yet... at least according to Taraji P. Henson who says the embattled actor is slated to return to "Empire" ... assuming it officially gets greenlit for season 6.

Taraji dropped the news after being questioned in several interviews if Jussie's gonna be on the show -- currently in hiatus -- next season. Taraji didn't beat around the bush saying, "Yes. I haven't heard anything else." There is, of course, wiggle room here -- she may not be looped in.

The fifth season of "Empire" wrapped up last week but there's been no official word on whether season 6 is a go ... but Taraji made it sound as if it's all but official. So that’s that!

LOS ANGELES, CA – Los Angeles City Councilman Marqueece Harris-Dawson announced the intersection of Crenshaw Boulevard and West Slauson Avenue in South Los Angeles – where Nipsey Hussle was killed — will officially be named “Nipsey Hussle Square.”

“As a father, brother, and son, Nipsey was a rock helping to build an empire that will continue through generations. Nipsey will always be remembered for delivering a pure, authentic Los Angeles sound, his numerous philanthropic efforts, his innovative, community-focused business mindset, and his humble heart.”


Jennifer Lopez Responds to Jose Canseco’s Alex Rodriguez Cheating Claims: ‘I Know What the Truth Is’
“He is cheating on her with my ex-wife Jessica poor girl she has no idea who he really is,” the former Oakland Athletics player wrote. “I was there a few months back with her when he called her on her phone. Alex Rodriguez stop being a piece of s–t stop cheating on Jennifer Lopez.”
Jessica Canseco, 46, who was married to Jose from 1996 to 1999, was shocked by her ex’s tweets. “Those false accusations Jose is making are not true,” she tweeted on March 12. “I have known Alex for many years and haven’t even seen him for over 5.”

However, the Cuba native would not back down and challenged A-Rod to a lie detector test. Jose asserted, “Alex show me now how much of a man you really are face the truth face a polygraph. Alex since you are a man’s man why don’t you contact me and we’ll talk about it face-to-face you know how to reach me.”
A source previously said that Lopez does not let cheating rumors “bother her” because “she’s heard [them] in the past.” The insider noted, “She trusts [Rodriguez] and his love. They are inseparable and together almost all of the time. Jose Canseco has an ax to grind, but she doesn’t hear the noise.”
As for what the couple, who began dating in in February 2017, has planned for their upcoming wedding? Not much!

“We’ve vaguely talked about, like, ‘Oh, when do you think?’ and things like that, but nothing is set in stone,” the Second Act star told Elvis Duran on his radio show on Tuesday, April 9. “We’re not there yet.”

FBI Joins Investigation Of Suspicious Fires At Three Historically Black Churches In Louisiana
The FBI has joined the investigation of “suspicious” fire that hit three historically Black churches in Lousiana all within a week of one another.
According to People, the St. Mary Baptist Church in Port Barre caught fire first on March 26. A week later, on April 2 and then on April 4, the Greater Union Baptist Church and Mt. Pleasant Baptist Church respectively caught fire.

“We’re very cognizant that there’s a problem, and there’s no coincidence that there are three fires,” State Fire Marshal H. “Butch” Browning said at a press conference last week. “We believe these three fires are suspicious.”
According to CBS News all three churches are just a few miles away from each other in St. Landry Parish near Baton Rouge.
The fires hearken back to the civil rights era when violence – including the burning of churches – was used to intimidate the Black community.

“We can’t let this setback stop us from doing what God initially called us to do,” Kyle Sylvester, the pastor of St. Mary’s Baptist Church said.
Still, the fires have instilled a great sense of loss. The fire at Greater Union Baptist burned from the roof to the pews, according to CBS. Pastor Harry Richard’s grandfather was one of the people who helped start the church, making the damage personal.

“He left a legacy for me and I was trying to fulfill that to the best of my ability,” he said.
Even as the FBI and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms get involved in the investigation, officials are still shying away from categorizing the fires as a hate crime, saying it is too early to make that determination.

Still, Browning vowed that the incident will be dealt with.

“We’re gonna solve this. For the people responsible, the right thing to do would be to come ask for redemption and come forward and let us help you through this process, don’t make us hunt you down, because we will,” he said.


Lil Nas X Apologizes for Trolling About BeyoncΓ© Being on “Old Town Road” Remix
"Old Town Road" rapper and overnight sensation Lil Nas X has been teasing a Young Thug remix of his breakthrough single, the original of which just landed at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. Despite only having one commercially available song to his name, he's on top of the world. However, the rapper might be letting the sudden success go to his head, after he decided to tease his 320k+ Twitter followers by dropping BeyoncΓ©'s name.

"Ready to tell them @beyonce," he tweeted with no further explanation. Understandably, Twitter was very excited about whatever it was he was teasing, but it all came crashing down the moment a website decided to publish a story on his tease.
The huge viral success of "Old Town Road," which was only further assisted by the fantastic Billy Ray Cyrus remix, might have given him the chance to collaborate with Thugger, but Bey isn't quite on the cards just yet.

Meanwhile Lil Nas X has also been teasing his debut album, posting snippets and also joking that it'll just be numerous versions of "Old Town Road."


Here's a First Look at James Gandolfini's Son as Young Tony Soprano
We are all well aware that the son of the late James Gandolfini will portray a young Tony Soprano in the upcoming Sopranos prequel film The Many Saints of Newark. Now, we get an early glimpse at what that will look like by way of some on-set shots of Michael Gandolfini taking on the truly iconic role.

The 19-year-old actor is seen below in images shared by The Daily Mail Wednesday shooting in New York. As the attire makes clear, Saints is set in the late 1960s, possibly during the Newark riots in '67.
Sopranos creator David Chase co-penned the prequel's script with Lawrence Konner, whose previous writing credits include Roots and the aforementioned HBO game-changer that started it all. Jon Bernthal, Alessandro Nivola, Vera Farmiga, Leslie Odom Jr., and undisputed GOAT Ray Liotta are also aboard the project to portray characters that will in some way inspire the events that lead to the world of Sopranos we know so well. Expect the movie in theaters on Sept. 25 of next year.
Michael Gandolfini recently stepped into the legacy with a visit to the notorious Holsten's booth in Bloomfield where a certain Sopranos scene took place.


Magic Johnson Steps Down As President of Basketball Operations For The Lakers
On Thursday, as the NBA celebrated the legendary careers of Dwyane Wade in Miami and Dirk Nowitzki in Dallas, Earvin ‘Magic’ Johnson made headlines with an impromptu news conference, in which announced he was stepping down as the Los Angeles’ Lakers president.

“Today, I’m gonna step down as the president,” Johnson said, as he opened up about his relationship with team owner, Jeanie Buss. “Her and I have such an amazing relationship and I think that she gave me full power to do what I wanted to do. But I think that with her and I, I want to always preserve our relationship. I think that I had more fun when I was able to be the big brother and ambassador to everybody.”

The announcement came more than two years after Johnson stepped into the position in an attempt to restore the franchise’s winning history. However, amid rumors of tensions with Coach Luke Walton, the botched Anthony Davis trade and the drama surrounding LeBron James, Johnson decided to throw in the towel. Although Johnson never directly linked his decision to Walton, he alluded to the fact that the third year coach was expected to be fired, and considering Walton’s relationship with Buss, Johnson refused to let the job get in-between their relationship.

“(On Wednesday) I would have to affect somebody’s livelihood and their life,” Johnson said. “And I thought about it and I said, ‘That’s not fun for me. That’s not who I am.’ And then I don’t want to put her in the middle of us, even though she said, ‘Hey, you can do what you want to do.’ I know she has a great love for him and great love for me.”

But ultimately, Johnson said he’s ready to get back to his carefree life.

“I like to be free,” he said. “I’ve got a great life…what am I doing? I’ve got a beautiful life. I’m gonna go back to that beautiful life. I’m looking forward to it. Somebody is going to have to tell my boss, because I know she’s going to be sick. But I knew I couldn’t face her face-to-face and tell her.”
After learning the news, Buss was more than appreciative of Johnson’s work with the legendary franchise.

“Earvin, I loved working side by side with you. You’ve brought us a long way. We will continue the journey. We love you,” Buss said.


Rihanna regrets missing out on a possible collab with Nipsey Hussle, commiserates with late rapper's girlfriend
Rihanna regrets missing out on a possible collab with Nipsey Hussle, commiserates with late rapper's girlfriend
A collab with Rihanna is a big deal for any contemporary musician, but the reigning queen of R&B and pop is mournful right now for missing a chance to collaborate with recently murdered rapper, Nipsey Hussle.

In a Twitter post, Rihanna shared a screenshot from a conversation between Hussle, and Yung Berg aka 'hitmaka', where the two are discussing a possible collaboration between Hussle and Rihanna. The screenshot shows Berg, real name Christian Ward, sharing the rough version of a track titled 'On My Mind,' which as per Hussle's response, the late rapper really wanted to work on.
Berg can be seen telling Hussle that if this track was his and Rihanna's, it would have reached the number one position on the Hot 100 charts. An enthusiastic Hussle seems to agree to that and replied "We gotta get Rihanna then," and in follow up texts he adds "ima work on this one This is a Go!"

The original screenshot was shared by Berg himself on April 1, shortly after news of Hussle being shot to death came out on March 31. But Rihanna shared it a week after the rapper's brutal murder, captioning the post with the word 'repost' followed by the crying emoji and a heart.
That Rihanna would have adored the opportunity to collab with the talented rapper is no secret, but what's even more touching is that her tribute on the departed soul didn't stop there.

Taking to Twitter again, 'badgal Riri' followed up the screenshot with a short video clip of Hussle, and his girlfriend Lauren London, where photos of the couple appear as a slideshow. The 31-year-old singer captioned the photo "I’m so sorry @LaurenLondon" followed by a couple of blue hearts and the prayer emoji to share her condolences with her.


Would you spend $5,000 for these Sneakers By Kanye West?
Kanye has topped headlines for a little bit of everything from politics to fashion within the past few years, but there hasn’t been much discussion of his once highly anticipated fashion streetwear line, Pastelle, since the early 2000s.  Although the line was never released, model, Gio Mitchell is selling the only pair of sample sneakers from the Fall 2010 collection for $5,000.

Sneakerheads may notice the resemblance to Nike’s “Vandal Low” sneaker design. The shoe features grey suede and white piping with a Velcro strap. There are some noticeable differences and discoloration in each shoe due to aging and the fact that they’re samples, but they would still be considered a great purchase for anyone wanting to own a piece of Kanye’s fashion history.

Would you rock a pair of these?


Prince Harry is partnering with Oprah Winfrey on Apple TV+ series about mental health
Prince Harry is the latest big name attached to Apple’s upcoming streaming service, Apple TV+, which was formally introduced last month. According to an announcement published to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s official Instagram account, Prince Harry and Oprah Winfrey are co-creators and executive producers on an Apple TV+ docuseries focused on mental health.

“I truly believe that good mental health – mental fitness – is the key to powerful leadership, productive communities and a purpose-driven self,” said Prince Harry, in a statement.

“It is a huge responsibility to get this right as we bring you the facts, the science and the awareness of a subject that is so relevant during these times. Our hope is that this series will be positive, enlightening and inclusive – sharing global stories of unparalleled human spirit fighting back from the darkest places, and the opportunity for us to understand ourselves and those around us better. I am incredibly proud to be working alongside Oprah on this vital series,” he shared.

Oprah’s involvement with Apple TV+ was first announced in June 2018, with news that she signed a multi-year deal to produce original content for Apple’s then still unnamed streaming service.

At Apple’s press event in March, the company brought Winfrey on stage to offer more details about what she had planned. That includes “Toxic Labor,” a documentary that examines the effects of sexual harassment in the workplace, and another untitled multi-part series about mental health.
Prince Harry’s involvement was not mentioned at the time. However, he has been involved for several months, today’s announcement states.

The series, according to Winfrey, will look at how “the scourge of depression, and anxiety, post-traumatic stress, addiction, trauma, and loss, is just devastating lives daily across the globe.” The show, if it does its job right, aims to replace shame and stigma around mental health issues with “compassion and honesty,” she had said.
The topic of mental health is one Prince Harry has been focused on himself, before agreeing to co-produce the series.

As the announcement explains: “The dynamic multi-part documentary series will focus on both mental illness and mental wellness, inspiring viewers to have an honest conversation about the challenges each of us faces, and how to equip ourselves with the tools to not simply survive, but to thrive.

This commitment builds on The Duke of Sussex’s long-standing work on issues and initiatives regarding mental health, where he has candidly shared personal experience and advocated for those who silently suffer, empowering them to get the help and support they deserve.”
Winfrey also went on “CBS This Morning” to talk more about mental health, the series, and how she came to partner with Prince Harry on the project.

She had asked him what he thought were the most important issues facing the world, and he had replied with two: climate change and mental health.
“As you know, he’s spoken about his own issues and what he went through after his mother died and how being able to talk about it has benefitted him,” Winfrey told CBS. “It’s a passion of his and at the end of the conversation, I said, ‘Oh, I’m going to be doing this thing with Apple. I said it’s a big concern of mine, too … And I was telling him about this Apple platform and he said at the end of the conversation, ‘If there’s anything I can do to help.’ And I go ‘as a matter of fact…”

The multi-part docuseries still doesn’t have a name, but will arrive in 2020 following the public debut of Apple TV+, scheduled for later this fall.
