Sharon Stone for Harper's Bazaar EspaΓ±a!
She looks GREAT!


#RHOA: Sincerely Ward, Accused Mistress Of Porsha Williams’ Fiance Dennis McKinley, To Appear On RHOA!
Porsha Williams seemingly found her happily ever after with Dennis McKinley last year. Unfortunately, this spring found the two single again after rumors of an affair plagued their engagement.
Now, the woman accused of sleeping with Dennis will make her Bravo debut on Real Housewives of Atlanta.

Sincerely Ward is a model and WAGS alum. She was said to be hooking up with the Hot Dog Factory owner in an explosive video by vlogger Tasha K.
Not long after, Porsha stopped wearing her wedding ring and unfollowed Dennis which made it clear that there was trouble in paradise.
Since then, McKinley has reproposed to Williams and the little family is back together again.
However, fans will get to see the drama play out on camera and Sincerely Ward was on the latest preview for the upcoming season.

She appears to tell Kandi Burruss that she’s ‘the mistress.’ The context of the conversation is unknown.
Ward could be proudly claiming that she came between the happy couple or she could be saying it sarcastically.
Either way, both Dennis and Sincerely claimed that they don’t know each other.
The model told US Weekly: ‘I really have no clue where this came from. It’s bizarre, I’ve never met Dennis. In Atlanta, it’s easy to have 6-degrees of separation [but] to my knowledge, I don’t even know if we’ve even been in the same room together.’

Meanwhile, the father of one told the same publication: ‘These false and slanderous allegations against me are made solely to damage my reputation, jeopardize my ongoing businesses, and negatively impact my family. My attempts to ignore this slander have only empowered Latasha Kebe (aka Tasha K.) to create more false accusations. I am currently taking legal action — and am currently being represented by Michael T. Sterling of Dreyer Sterling, LLC.’


#Empire: Terrence Howard Says Jussie Smollett's 'Empire' Exit Changed The Show In The Worst Way!
Terrence Howard is currently on the promo trail for the final season of Empire, and recently, the actor shared how Jussie Smollett's sudden exit from the show has affected its flow.

As previously reported, Smollett, who played one of Howard's sons on the show, was fired earlier this year after allegedly staging an assault in Chicago, in which he claimed two men physically attacked him and hurled racial and homophobic slurs at him while tying a rope around his neck. The disgraced actor was later indicted for filing a false police report, and while he faced up to three years in prison, all charged against him were eventually dropped. Despite this controversial decision, Empire's co-creator Lee Daniels announced in April that Smollett would be written out of the show for its final season.

"I was so proud of that young man that played my son, because he still loved me at the end of it, and all he wanted to do was get closer to me," Howard said of Smollett's time on the drama. "And then out of nowhere, he's snatched away from us... He was the heart of our show, and now it's like our show is on a blood, a heart and lung bypass machine because the heart is gone, but we're still hoping that there's going to be a transplant, and hoping somehow it will come back together."

Howard, who recently revealed that he will be quitting acting once the show is over, added that the cast is still trying to understand what the truth is in the widespread scandal.
"I don't know what it was like, because we are still trying to figure it out," he said. "We are all still trying to put the pieces together because my son is gone. That was my little boy, and he's gone now, and they don't mention him as if it's OK. And it's like, no, that's not cool."

The final season of Empire is currently airing on FOX.


 #NewMusic from Ne-Yo He Releases First Holiday Album ‘Another Kind of Christmas’!
Ne-Yo is helping spread joy this holiday with his first-ever Christmas album titled Another Kind of Christmas.
The 11-track LP includes five original songs penned by Ne-Yo himself, including “Just Ain’t Christmas” and “Open Mine Tonight.”

“Just Ain’t Christmas” is a relatable track for those who have experienced heartbreak during the holidays.
Ne-Yo doesn’t dwell too much on pain, though. “Open Mine Tonight” is a steamy tune that finds two lovers unwrapping each other’s ‘gifts’ in the bedroom.
The other half of the album features reimagined versions of Christmas classics such as “Someday At Christmas” and Marvin Gaye’s “I Want To Come Home For Christmas.”
The Grammy-winning singer/songwriter also enlisted help from Candice Boy, RaVaughn, Satori and Dre Island for the festive set.

Another Kind of Christmas is Ne-Yo’s first project to release since his 2018 album, Good Man. The album featured guest appearances from PartyNextDoor, Eric Bellinger, Candice Boyd, Sam Hook, Bebe Rexha, Stefflon Don and Romeo Santos. The title track, produced by DJ Camper, peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard Adult R&B Songs chart.


#HipHopNews: Nicki Minaj Regrets Retirement Announcement!
While promoting her Fendi Prints On collection, the rap queen reflected on her tweet from Sept. 5 that sent hip-hop and her fans into a frenzy.
 “I didn’t know my fans were going to act like that with the tweet, and it hurt my feelings,” she told The Shade Room. “I felt like the way I did it was like insensitive to my fans, I didn’t know it was going to be that big of a deal. So that’s why I deleted it because it had like 600,000 likes and it was up for like less than an hour, and it took on a life of its own.”

She realizes in hindsight that it was not the best decision. “But you know what, I’m a human being and sometimes in the middle of all this chaos, you’re a woman, you’re a human being, you have feelings, you may speak out of term,” she added. “You may do things or say things where you’re like ‘what the hell was I talking about or thinking about,’ but I’m human.”

While she didn’t confirm whether a fifth album was actually coming, she revealed some potential collaborators. “I just recently collaborated with DaBaby, so you know he got to return that favor, and Gunna, I love Gunna,” she said. “So, if there is an album there’s going to be way more than that if there is an album, but those are two new people that I haven’t had on an album yet who I would love to work with them.”
She and Kanye West also collaborated on “New Body” for his upcoming album Jesus Is King, but the track may not make the final cut due to creative differences.

“What’s funny is that I did a song with Kanye, that he now wants to transform into a gospel song,” she said. “I done wrote three different verses chile, and I don’t know. We ain’t seeing eye to eye on it. I don’t know, but of course, I love and respect Kanye, and Kim, we’ll see what happens with that.”


Rolling Stone’s Top ‘100 Greatest Singers of All Time’ List Sparks Twitter Uproar!
A Rolling Stone Magazine’s top ‘100 Singers of All Time’ list has resurfaced and subsequently sent Twitter into a frenzy!

The list, which was originally published back in 2010, lists Aretha Franklin at number 1, Marvin Gaye at 6, Bob Dylan at 7, Bob Marley at 19, Michael Jackson at 25, Bono at 32, Whitney Houston at 34, Luther Vandross at 54, Christina Aguilera at 58, Mariah Carey at 79, and Mary J. Blige at 100.
Twitter users were quick to point out that Whitney Houston should at least be in the top 10, and the list is trash due to Luther Vandross being too low in the Top 100.
Others were puzzled that Bob Dylan made it in the top 10, and BeyoncΓ© fans wanted to know where in the world was Queen Bey on that list! However, BeyoncΓ© wasn’t the only artist left off of the list, Twitter users also called for Frank Sinatra, Adele, Ella Fitzgerald, and Louis Armstrong, amongst others.

Well JUST MARRIED! Nicki Minaj and Kenneth Petty Got Married!
It looks like Nicki Minaj and Kenneth Petty have got married, according to the Queen rapper's latest IG post.
Nicki captioned said post with a series of emojis along with a date that is seemingly the day they tied the knot, October 21, 2019. Though there isn't much in the way of details, the IG video features wedding swag that includes a pair of mugs and caps. Check it out HERE.
"You know when you’re a little girl and you want this big beautiful wedding, and I used to think I was one of those girls, I always wanted the fairytale," Nicki previously said in an interview with the Shade Room. "But then the things that used to matter to you don’t matter as much... I’m madly in love with this man, he’s also my best friend, the things that used to matter to me before, don’t matter as much now. So yes, we’re going to have a big wedding eventually."

It was previously reported that Minaj and Petty got their marriage license from a Beverly Hills courthouse back in July. Minaj announced that she was dating Petty in Dec. of 2018 and was met with a wave of backlash due to his criminal background. According to TMZ, Petty served time in prison for manslaughter and is a registered sex offender. News of the marriage comes on the heels of the rapper taking to Twitter to say that she's retiring from music. "I’ve decided to retire & have my family. I know you guys are happy now," Minaj wrote in a tweet that's since been deleted. "To my fans, keep reppin me, do it til da death of me, in the box- cuz ain’t nobody checkin me. Love you for LIFE."

Minaj has since said that the tweet was "insensitive to my fans..."


TMZ’s Van Lathan fired after newsroom spat with Michael Babcock!
According to Page Six veteran TMZ personality Van Lathan has been fired after getting into a nasty confrontation with fellow star, Michael Babcock
Story is the pair appeared on the site’s online show “TMZ Live” together about a week and a half ago and had some kind of disagreement. The on-air face-off has been edited out, we’re told, but sources say they were sparring over politics, which has increasingly come between them. Lathan famously went head-to-head with Kanye West last year over the rapper’s claims that slavery was “a choice.” Meanwhile, we’re told Babcock leans to the right.

Sources say that Lathan confronted Babcock in the newsroom after the segment and told him there would be trouble if he “ever embarrassed [Lathan] like that again.” Insiders say Lathan met with the site’s attorneys and he was suspended. He was dismissed a few days later.
An insider defended Lathan — who also hosts the “Red Pill” podcast — saying that in the site’s high-pressure newsroom, staffers are often pitted against each other for the sake of making good TV. “Van’s not mean-spirited. Anything that happened is a product of that environment,” said an insider.
Sources also said that Lathan had been “a huge part” of the success of TMZ over the past few years and they were stunned he had been fired over the incident.

When reached for comment, Lathan declined to comment without speaking to an attorney, Babcock hung up on us, and TMZ didn’t respond.


Michael Jordan Opens Novant Health Clinic For Low-Income Residents!
NBA legend Michael Jordan has opened the first of two clinics in North Carolina that will serve low-income residents with little or no health insurance.
At the grand opening of the Novant Health Michael Jordan Family Medical Clinic in Charlotte on Thursday, Michael shed tears as he said:

As you can see, it’s a very emotional thing for me to be able to give back to a community that’s supported me over the years.
Via CNN:The clinic will offer typical primary and preventative care, but will also provide patients with behavioral health and social support services.
The 6,800-square-foot facility is equipped with 12 exam rooms, an X-ray room, and a physical therapy space. In addition, a full-time social worker is on staff to provide social support services to patients.
Michael Jordan spoke with the “TODAY” show about the new clinic.
This is absolutely wonderful. It’s so great to see Michael giving back in such a huge way. No shade ABOUT TIME!


Rihanna Shared A Chris Brown Song On Instagram & Fans Are Pissed!
Rihanna may be on good terms with her ex-boyfriend Chris Brown, but many of her fans can't say the same.

The 31-year-old singer turned business mogul broke the Internet for all the wrong reasons on Saturday night (October 19) after she shared a promotional video for her Fenty Beauty line that featured Chris' song "Come Together."
"Gang Gang. just me and my #GlossyPosse !!! @fentybeauty," RiRi captioned the clip that showed a collection of her lip glosses arranged at the edge of a pool. While Chris' song, which also features H.E.R., merely played in the background of the video, the post upset many of Rihanna's die-hard Navy members given her past with Chris.

As fans know, back in 2009, the R&B singer pled guilty to physically abusing his then-girlfriend Rihanna. The incident, which occurred hours before the 2009 Grammys, left a stain on Chris' career, and to this day many artists have refused to work with him because of it, which is why Rihanna's post shocked many of her fans.

However, not all fans were as quick to condemn Chris. "This Chris Brown and Rihanna situation happened like 10 years ago. Why the f**k are people talking about it?" another wrote. "Da*n, move the F**K ON!"


Meghan Markle And Prince Harry Will Reportedly Spend Thanksgiving Holiday In America!
The Royal Family, Dutchess Meghan Markle, Prince Harry, and baby Archie are planning ahead for a much needed holiday vacation, splitting time with family between Thanksgiving and Christmas in both the U.S. and the U.K. The family will take six weeks off from their royal duties to relax and recoup.

A royal source said the duke and duchess would like all of the family to enjoy their 5-month old son Archie’s first Thanksgiving and Christmas. Prince Harry and Meghan plan to spend Thanksgiving in Los Angeles with Meghan’s family, before returning to England for Christmas with the Queen.
The source said, “The duke and duchess have a full schedule of engagements and commitments until mid-November, after which they will be taking some much-needed family time.” The news comes just one day after a clip from the forthcoming documentary Harry & Meghan: An African Journey showed the duchess opening up about how difficult new motherhood has been under such intense media scrutiny.

Meghan said, “Look any woman especially when they’re pregnant, you’re really vulnerable, and so that was made really challenging, and then when you have a newborn … And especially as a woman, it’s really, it’s a lot. So, you add this on top of just trying to be a new mom or trying to be a newlywed. And also thank you for asking because not many people have asked if I’m okay, but it’s a very real thing to be going through behind the scenes.”

They definitely deserve the break!


 Sesame Street Theme Park Coming To San Diego In 2021!
SeaWorld Entertainment and Sesame Workshop are teaming for Sesame Place, a new theme park in San Diego that is scheduled to open in spring 2021. It will be the second Sesame Street-themed park in the U.S. from the companies; the other is in Philadelphia which has been operating since 1980.
The new site will sit on 17 acres located south of SeaWorld San Diego, a space now used by the Aquatica San Diego water park in Chula Vista, CA; that facility will close after its summer season ends next year.

Sesame Place will feature 11 water attractions and a 500,000-gallon wave pool, along with seven rides — all kid friendly. It also will offer an interactive Sesame Street neighborhood complete with the iconic 123 Sesame Street stoop, live character shows and a daily parade.
The companies also said Monday it will open as a Certified Autism Center, like its Philadelphia sister park, the first in the world to win the designation.
SeaWorld San Diego previously opened Sesame Street Bay of Play in 2008, and SeaWorld Orlando recently opened Sesame Street Land featuring six themed rides, a parade and more. There is also a Sesame Street land inside the SeaWorld theme park in San Antonio.

Sesame Street parent Sesame Workshop recently inked a five-year deal with HBO Max which will see the venerable kids brand move from its current home HBO and its on-demand platforms HBO Now/Go. The deal calls for five new 35-episode seasons of Sesame Street, four new live-action and animated series including an Elmo-hosted talk show and an animated Sesame Street spinoff, annual specials, as well as the show’s 50-year library which includes more than 4,500 episodes.


Dennis Quaid, 65, confirms engagement to Laura Savoie, 26!
The 65-year-old actor confirmed he’s engaged to 26-year-old Laura Savoie after proposing to her in Hawaii.

“It happened on the very northernmost point of Oahu, at Turtle Bay. It was kind of spontaneous,” he told Extra. “It was very much a surprise.”
While the timing was a “surprise,” the “Parent Trap” star admitted he had purchased the ring well in advance of popping the question.
“I had the ring in my pocket … It has been kind of a month-and-a-half plan,” he shared. “I wanted it to be private.”
Typically millennial, Savoie was in the middle of snapping a selfie with Quaid when he pulled out the ring.

“She was actually taking a selfie of us, and I put the ring in front and said, ‘Will you marry me?’ — and then she fell down,” Quaid revealed.
Page Six confirmed Quaid was dating the University of Texas Ph.D. student in June after they were spotted out together.
Quaid previously dated model Santa Auzins after his 16-year marriage to Kimberly Buffington ended in 2018. He was also married to Meg Ryan from 1991 to 2001 and P.J. Soles from 1978 to 1983.

Savoie previously dated Jeremy Piven.

The model receives a misdemeanor citation for hit-and-run and delaying a police investigation after leaving the scene of a traffic accident. Get the details!
Lori Harvey was arrested last weekend.According to the Beverly Hills Police Department, the celebrity was arrested for a hit-and-run and delaying a police investigation. She received a misdemeanor citation instead of being booked.

The driver, determined to be Lori Harvey, was ultimately contacted by police in the area," Beverly Hills police said in a statement.

The call for the accident came in on Sunday, Oct. 20 at 9:48 p.m.


Suge Knight Reportedly Signs Life Rights Over To Ray J!
Suge Knight wants Ray J to "cash in" on his name. According to TMZ, the former Death Row Records boss, who's currently incarcerated, "signed over his life rights to Ray, with the expectation he'll make the right decisions with Suge's story and make some money for him and his family while he's behind bars."
Sources told the outlet that Suge and Ray have been friends for decades and Suge trusts the Love & Hip Hop star's business knowledge "and ability to choose the right projects for film, TV, book publications and more."

The insider added that a documentary about Suge, who was sentenced to 28 years in prison after pleading no contest to voluntary manslaughter last year, and the development of his famous record label is already in the works along with a project about Tupac Shakur. There are also reported discussions about bringing Death Row back. While the resurgence of the record label is reportedly a "longshot" that would require additional investors, Suge is said to be letting Ray take the reins on exploring the venture.
Even though the revival of Death Row Records may or may not come to fruition, 50 Cent has already made it known that he wants in on the rights to Suge's life story. After TMZ reported that Suge gave Ray the deal, 50 took to Twitter to ask Ray J to call him for some advice. "Hey @RayJ call me I know what to do with this," he wrote. "🀨don’t nothing move but the money."

As fans know, business has been booming for Ray in 2019. Not only did he recently sign a $1 million deal to get people to invest in the marijuana business, but he's also had success with two of his other businesses — Scoot-E-Bikes, which he sold to LOOPShare in January for 7-figures, and his headphone company, Raycon.
