#RHOA: Nene Leakes Goes Makeup-Free to Explain Why She's Too Busy for Glam!
Nene Leakes may be a well-documented lover of all things glam, but The Real Housewives of Atlanta mogul has never shied away from showing fans how she balances her high-fashion life with the realities of being a businesswoman. Whether she's putting her own unique spin on laid-back looks or throwing "Bye Wig"-themed parties, Nene is not afraid to flaunt her naturally fabulous self. Which is why it came as no surprise when Nene took to Instagram to talk about her latest venture minus any makeup.
On October 27, Nene shared a candid video in which she talked about all the amazing developments with her new project Ladies of Success — Beauty, Brains and Business. And though the fresh concept sounds really intriguing (there may be a Wendy Williams connection with the event), we love how open Nene is about balancing it all without giving up her glow.

"Coming to you live once again at my house. [I have] no makeup because I'm having to work my butt off, so I'm just not able to put any makeup on these last couple of days. Ladies of Success has me moving and moving."


#Empire: Did Any Cast Members Ever Date in Real Life?
Empire quickly rose to become one of Fox’s most talked-about shows when it premiered back in 2015. Since then, there have been various romances on the show, some of which have panned out and some that have not. But behind all of the characters are cast members who play these roles — have any of them ever dated in real life?

Andre Lyon and Anika are engaged in real life
Andre Lyon, who is played by actor Trai Byers, had romantic flings with several women throughout Empire’s run (the show is currently in its sixth and final season). However, none of them were the woman he actually fell in love with. Andre is married in the first three seasons of the show, but after losing his wife, he becomes involved with Nessa, Charlotte, Pamela, and Terri, all at different points over seasons 3, 4, and 5. However, in real life, Byers starts dating Grace Gealey, who played Anika on the show. Gealey and Byers hit it off while shooting season 1 and became engaged quickly. They wed back in 2016.

Luscious and Cookie Lyon have never had an off-screen romance
Luscious and Cookie Lyon have always had an interesting relationship on the show; Cookie, played by Taraji P. Henson, always felt she had a stake in her ex-husband’s record label after taking the fall for his drug deals, which earned her a 17-year prison sentence. Luscious is played by Terrence Howard, and though the two co-stars have always been friends (they’ve worked together in the past), they have never dated in real life. Henson was with her high school sweetheart up until his tragic death in 2003; she dated around but has been with former NFL player Kevin Hayden since 2016. Howard is currently engaged to his ex-wife Mira Pak. The two were married from 2013 to 2015, then divorced but announced their re-engagement in December 2018.

Hakeem Lyon never dated any of his on-screen love interests
On the show, Hakeem Lyon, who is played by Bryshere Y. Gray, has been romantically involved with several women. Tiana, Camilla, Anika, Valentina, and Laura have all been love interests of his. He was rumored to have been in a relationship several years back, though he kept it quiet and the woman he was dating wasn’t well known to the public. However, there were also rumors that he was dating Serayah McNeill, who plays Tiana on the show. But in an interview in 2016, Gray said he wouldn’t date a co-star.

The cast has remained very close friends in real life
Though most of the relationships on the show haven’t transitioned to real life, the cast members have been close friends since they started filming. The show has now been on for six seasons, and it’s given the cast members plenty of time to get close. When everything happened with Jussie Smollett earlier this year (Smollett was accused of staging a racist and homophobic attack on himself) his co-star Terrence Howard stood by his side, but here were mixed rumors that other co-stars wanted him off the show. Overall, though, the cast has become like a family over the last five years.

#HipHopNews: Diddy Claims He’s In Semi-Retirement!
In a new digital cover story Rolling Stone published on Monday (Oct. 28), Diddy appears with DJ Khaled as they discuss their working history together over the past two decades. Towards the end of the interview, Diddy, who says he's bringing back his iconic reality TV series Making the Band on MTV in 2020, confirms that music has not been a priority on his stacked-up schedule.

"To be honest, I’ve been in semi-retirement," Diddy admitted. "If you don’t see my name on all the top 10 records, that means I’m not making music. I’m bringing Making the Band back in 2020. I’m contemplating, 'Is there a role for me in music now?' I just know that for me, I would only be able to sign legends. To be honest, my decisions will be made through God. I’m at another frequency and level of music. It would have to be something that God fully put in my heart, like when I heard Biggie or I heard Mary [J. Blige]."

The music mogul hasn't dropped a project since his 2015 project Money Making Mitch. Since then, Diddy had planned to put out his final album No Way Out 2 however he's been a lot more invested in his other ventures with television and his previous TV series The Four on FOX. Hopefully, the revival of Making the Band will give him the spark he needs to actively pursue music in the future.


John ‘POPS’ Witherspoon Dies: Comedian & ‘Friday’ Star Was 77!
John Witherspoon, an actor-comedian who for decades made audiences laugh in TV shows and films, including the hit Friday feature franchise, died suddenly at his home today. He was 77.

“It is with deepest sorrow that we can confirm our beloved husband and father, John Witherspoon, one of the hardest working men in show business, died today at his home in Sherman Oaks at the age of 77,” Witherspoon’s family said in a statement to Deadline. “He is survived by his wife Angela, and his sons JD, Alexander, and a large family. We are all in shock, please give us a minute for a moment in privacy and we will celebrate his life and his work together. John used to say ‘I’m no big deal’, but he was huge deal to us.”
Comedy great Witherspoon was born in Detroit in 1942 as John Weatherspoon. He launched a stand-up comedy career and began acting in the late 1970s with guest-starring TV roles, making his feature debut in the 1980 The Jazz Singer. Witherspoon appeared in numerous films, including Hollywood Shuffle, Boomerang, Vampire in Brooklyn, The Ladies Man and Fakin’ Da Funk.

Witherspoon was perhaps best known for his role as Ice Cube’s grumpy dad in the 1995 breakout hit Friday. He also appeared in the sequels Next Friday and Friday After Next, and was expected to reprise his role in the long-gestating final installment of the franchise titled Last Friday.
Witherspoon also voiced Gramps on the cult animated series The Boondocks. He likely would’ve returned for the series’ upcoming revival on HBO Max. Also known for his role as Pops on The Wayans Bros., Witherspoon did stints on such comedy series as The Tracy Morgan Show, The First Family and Black Jesus. He also was a frequent guest on Late Show with David Letterman.

Even with his busy film and TV career, standup comedy remained an important part of Witherspoon’s life. At age 77, he continued to perform regularly and had several dates coming up at the time of his death.


Kevin Hart Shares Video Documenting His Recovery After Car Accident!
Kevin Hart is not taking life for granted anymore. Nearly two months after he was involved in a very serious car accident, the 40-year-old actor has released a new video on Instagram to open up about life after the crash.
“Basically what you realize is that you’re not in control,” Kevin says at the beginning of the video. “No matter how much you think you’re in control, you’re not in control. At the end of the day, it can all be over man.”

The video you can watch it Below documents Kevin‘s road to recovery after the crash, showing him in the hospital after undergoing back surgery then showing him at home during intense physical therapy sessions while wearing a back brace.

“When God talks, you gotta listen. I swear life is funny because some of the craziest things that happen to you end up being the things that you needed most,” Kevin continues. “In this case, I honestly feel like God basically told me to sit down. When you moving too fast and doing too much, you can’t see the things that you’re meant to see. But after my accident, I see things differently. I see life from a whole new perspective. My appreciation for life is through the roof.”

It was recently reported that Kevin will not fully return to work until early next year.


Ricky Martin and Husband Jwan Yosef Reveal Arrival of Fourth Child!
Ricky Martin and Jwan Yosef are now parents of 4. The singer and his husband revealed Tuesday they have welcomed their fourth child together, a boy named Renn Martin-Yosef. The announcement comes less than a month since the couple revealed they were expecting the newest addition to their family.

"Our son Renn Martin-Yosef was born," Martin captioned the photo which featured Martin holding the little bundle of joy in his arms. The star also added the hashtag: "#TheBabyIsBorn"
Many celebrities and fans took to the comments section of the joyful announcement to wish Martin and Yosef the best.
"Blessings and more blessing to the whole fam," Joy Huerta wrote.
"Congratulations friend," Mario Lopez also wrote.
"Whooooaaaaahhhh!!! Congratulations brother!!!! So happy for you!!" Another user commented.
"Oh my gosh! So precious! Congratulations to the whole fam. Xx," another user wrote.

Martin also shared the happy news on his Instagram Stories, writing the same caption underneath the photo and adding "#4" with a baby emoji and a party emoji.
Renn joins big brothers Matteo and Valentino, 11, and big sister 10-month-old daughter Lucia.
Back in September, Martin broke the news of baby No. 4 while he and his family attended the Human Rights Campaign National Dinner in Washington D.C., PEOPLE first wrote.

"My family's here," the American Crime Story star said while accepting an award for his advocacy of LGBTQ rights, as he praised his husband and his twin sons.
"My husband Jwan, I love you, my beautiful twins, Valentino and Matteo, they're also here, I love you with all my heart, you're my strength, you inspire me every day, you motivate me to keep doing what I'm doing and you guys are amazing kids," he said. "You guys are amazing. I love you."
The actor and singer also called his daughter Lucia, who did not join the rest of her family, the "light of my life."

"And by the way, I have to announce that we are pregnant. We are waiting," he said, inspiring a round of applause from the crowd. "I love big families."
Martin and Yosef met on Instagram and started dating in 2016. Renn's arrival comes almost two years since Martin announced he and the painter had secretly married. He has previously talked about how he always wanted a big family.

"I want four more pairs of twins. I would love to have a big family, but there's a lot going on at this moment, a lot of work," he said on the red carpet of the 2019 Golden Globes. "It's a lot going on so we're going to put things in order first and then we are going to get ready for many more kids."


Monica’s ex-husband Shannon Brown keeps house in divorce settlement!
Monica is single again after finalizing her divorce last week, but she reportedly had to pay a heavy price.
Her ex-husband, former NBA star Shannon Brown, will keep their home in Georgia, according to The Jasmine Brand. Monica will have custody of her three children, and they now have six months to relocate.

She has one child with Shannon, six-year-old daughter Lailyah, as well as two sons from previous relationships: 14-year-old Rodney and 11-year old Romelo.
The Grammy-winner will keep their vehicles, including a 2018 Maybach Mercedes and 2016 Range Rover. No alimony or child support was awarded.

38-year-old Monica and Shannon, 33, married in November 2010, and she filed for divorce in March of this year.  Over his NBA career, which lasted from 2006-2014, Brown played for eight teams, and won two championships with the Los Angeles Lakers.


Kanye West claims Democrats ‘BRAINWASH’ Black Americans And ‘Make Them Abort Their Children’!
Kanye West has appeared in yet another controversial interview, this time claiming that Democrats have “brainwashed” black Americans and make them “abort their children”.
The rapper and producer, who recently released his long-delayed album Jesus is King, spoke with radio host Big Boy over the weekend as part of promotion for the new record.

Asked about his infamous support for US president Donald Trump, West took a swipe at Democrats, commenting: “We’re [black Americans] brainwashed out here, bro. Come on, man. This is a free man talking. Democrats had us voting [for] Democrats with food stamps for years. What are you talking about? Guns in the Eighties, taking the fathers out the home, Plan B, lowering our votes, making us abort our children... Thou shall not kill.”

Watch the full interview HERE
While it was not entirely clear, it appeared that West was conflating Plan B (the morning-after pill) with abortions, when in fact the pill prevents a person from becoming pregnant. The conflation of the two procedures is something medical groups have made consistent attempts to debunk.
"I walk through the hotel and I walk down the street and people look at me... like I'm Hitler"
When Big Boy asked whether West had considered that his support could be construed as a tacit endorsement of racism, he flipped the question by responding: “The most racist thing a person can tell me is that I’m supposed to choose something based on my race.

“I’m not telling nobody not to vote Democrat,” he added, adding somewhat incomprehensibly: “I love Obama, I love lemonade, I love Wingstop, I love Polos, I love Jordans.”
Kanye West says endorsing Trump was ‘God’s practical joke to liberals’
West made a number of outlandish claims in an earlier interview with Zane Lowe, including that he told people working in his studio not to have sex before marriage, and that his support for Trump was “God’s practical joke to all liberals”.

Jesus is King has received mixed reviews from critics. In a two-star review from The Independent, it was observed that West’s meddling with mixes right before its release had likely affected the album’s lack of cohesion.


'Game Of Thrones' Prequel Starring Naomi Watts Is Not Moving Forward At HBO!
HBO has passed on the highly-anticipated Game of Thrones prequel series, as per Variety.
On Tuesday (October 29), the outlet published a report, which revealed that the cast and crew of the pilot were recently informed about the network's big decision. The pilot episode was reportedly already shot and in post-production. The series, which nabbed stars like Naomi Watts, Miranda Richardson, Denise Gough, Josh Whitehouse and more, was set to take place thousands of years before the events of the award-winning original. Sources over at TVLine revealed that the network executives "weren't happy with the finished product and sent showrunner Jane Goldman back to fix some issues." Additionally, sources reportedly revealed that the pilot was "troubled" by budget overruns, personnel problems, and creative differences.

Unfortunately, this was one of the many Game of Thrones projects put in development towards the end of the original series and none of the other projects are believed to be moving forward at this time. HBO has yet to comment on the announcement.

After GoT concluded its final season in May, the actors and creators of the show addressed the backlash over its conclusion. In an interview with The New York Times, Sophie Turner, who played Sansa Stark, addressed a Change.org petition to remake the Season 8 season "with competent writers." "All of these petitions and things like that — I think it’s disrespectful to the crew, and the writers, and the filmmakers who have worked tirelessly over 10 years, and for 11 months shooting the last season," Turner said during the interview. "Like 50-something night shoots. So many people worked so, so hard on it, and for people to just rubbish it because it’s not what they want to see is just disrespectful."


Chelsea Clinton Not Happy With How Jay-Z Responded To Beyonce’s Weight Loss!
Chelsea Clinton was not pleased with Jay-Z's lack of enthusiasm about his wife Beyonce's post-pregnancy weight loss.
The former First Daughter, like the rest of us, watched Bey's Netflix documentary and was shocked when Queen Bey was shown FaceTiming Jay about fitting into a super body-hugging costume after giving birth to twins and his response was underwhelming at best.

"I said, ‘Marc, if that’s ever me, you better have more enthusiasm,’” Chelsea told her chief of staff, Bari Lurie, while being interviewed by The Cut just after Homecoming's April release. “It wasn’t the ‘I’m so proud of you. That’s amazing’ that I arguably think any woman deserves, particularly someone who has clearly worked herself body, mind, heart, soul, and spirit to get to that place."
She added, "Marc was like, ‘Duly noted.’ And I was like, ‘I bet every woman watching this has this sense of She deserves more enthusiasm. Marc was like, ‘I got it. Can we go back to watching it, please? We’ve talked about it three times in the last 90 seconds.’”

“The struggle is real,” Bari replied. “Men just don’t get it. Your body made this thing …”
"Two humans!” Chelsea shouted. “Anyway, I loved Homecoming.”
As fans know, shortly after welcoming her twins — Rumi and Sir Carter — via an emergency c-section in June 2017, Beyonce began her journey to Coachella. And when she was just 33 days out from her big show, she tried on one of her old costumes to see if all her hard work was paying off, and boy was she over the moon when she saw how her body fit in the glittery brown sequin bodysuit.

"Okay this is seriously a huge accomplishment because I didn't think I would ever get into my old costume and I'm in it and I can still move," she said before Facetiming her husband. "I still have a way to go this makes me feel good. I've sacrificed a lot, I've been working hard. Yay. I want to show Jay."
"I'm back in my costume!" she told Jay over FaceTime. "Big deal! It's zipped! Alright, just had to share."

His response, a casual "All rightttt."


Iggy Azalea Fires Back at T.I.'s Criticism: 'Please Stop Lying'!
The spiteful back-and-forth between Iggy Azalea and T.I., who inked Iggy to Hustle Gang back in 2012, continued on Monday as the "Fancy" rapper set the record straight on their past and blasted Tip for what she claimed to be continuous lies.
"Please move on and speak about artist you are (hopefully) actually helping, and stop trying to bring me up for relevance. I don’t bring your ass up, NO ONE is asking about you. I’m tryna be nice because I genuinely have better and more interesting things happening," she wrote in a series of since-deleted tweets. "But seeing a man speaking out of his asshole and blurting [out] one thing in public and another in private for years is really infuriating. Keep it pushing sweetie & worry about what your next story line is for family hustle."

The response was prompted by quotes from T.I. taking credit for Iggy's early career success and also calling the "blunder" of signing her the "tarnish of his legacy" as a music exectutive. "As far as I'm concerned, I feel like when she found out white people liked her and she didn't really need black people to like her anymore, she switched up, started acting different, made moves that I wasn't proud of, that kind of placed my reputation in the line of fire," T.I. told The Breakfast Club.  "And she was very arrogant about it."
Azalea also claimed that T.I. only helped her write one song, "100," and said that he tried to re-sign her to Hustle Gang back in 2017. "I don’t understand how you could think you were responsible for something you never even heard until it was mixed and mastered," she continued. "I think about it but honestly what do I get out of that?"


Jordyn Woods Nearly Explodes Out of Her $500 Top As Cleopatra!
Jordyn Woods is giving Elizabeth Taylor a run for her money as Cleopatra! The 22-year-old social media sensation made fans drool by teasing her Halloween costume and nearly spilling out of her pricey crystal top.Wearing a shiny gold bralette that costs a whopping $500, Woods flaunted her ample cleavage in the tiny top that could hardly keep her girls contained.
Posting a sultry bathroom video while showing off her costume on Monday night, the fitness queen was clearly feeling herself.
Pairing the luxury bikini top with a satin white skirt and a high slit, Woods made sure to show fans the fruit of her labor.
Lacing a gold band up her exposed leg, she also wore matching cuffs with her hair down but away from her face in braids.
Going dramatic with the makeup, Woods sported heavy eye shadow and eyeliner while turning her bathroom floor into a catwalk.

She attached gold crystals to her face incorporating the rich, Cleopatra look.


Whoopi Goldberg snartches Meghan McCain edges and tells her: ‘Let me tell you something about “The View”’!
Whoopi Goldberg stopped the presses to offer a little bit of clarity on "The View" Tuesday.
In the middle of the usual chorus of arguments on “The View” Tuesday, Whoopi Goldberg took a beat to diffuse chaos and break things down for one of her fellow hosts.

“OK, everybody, just take a breath,” Goldberg said, cutting in.
Meghan McCain, 35, then attempted to talk over Goldberg.

The discussion began that day on the subject of Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, the top Ukraine expert on the National Security Council, who testified about President Donald Trump’s phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy, and spiraled from there. As in episodes past, McCain sparred with co-host Joy Behar.
“Hold on, let me just finish what I’m saying so that I can just say everybody has something to say at the table. We really do want to hear from everybody but we’re starting to do that thing,” Goldberg said, interlocking her hands to represent the problem at hand.
“I don’t know what that means — ‘this thing,'" McCain said.
“It means you’re talking over each other,” Goldberg said.

“Well, it’s ‘The View,’” McCain said.
 “You know what, let me tell you something about ‘The View,'" Goldberg said. “This show has always had the ability to have different points of view, which we respect around the table. And when we talk to each other, we also exhibit respect, so when I’m saying to you ‘hold up’ because we’re not hearing each other, I’m not trying to cut you off, I’m trying to get you heard.”

Cue McCain to interject once again.
"No, but that’s what you’re doing right ... " Goldberg said, trailing off, before cutting to a commercial break.

Goldberg, 63, lives in the Llewellyn Park section of West Orange. On Sunday, she was in Asbury Park to help induct her friend, celebrity photographer Timothy White, into the New Jersey Hall of Fame (she hosted the ceremony in 2018, and was nominated for the hall last year).
Goldberg, an EGOT winner — having won an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony — is set to reprise the role of Deloris Van Cartier in the musical adaptation of “Sister Act” for a month of shows in London, starting in July of 2020.
The “View” host’s moment of clarity — which succeeded in temporarily holding off McCain — earned raves on social media.
Goldberg started as a host on the show in 2007. McCain has been a host since 2017.

Of course, this is not the first time Goldberg has acted as the voice of reason to dispel tension on “The View.” In April, Goldberg brokered a fragile peace (or cease fire) between McCain and Joy Behar.


Man Arrested For Fatal Texas A&M Homecoming Party Shooting Denies Involvement!
A Greenville, Texas man was arrested  Monday for a shooting at an off-campus Texas A&M college party, which ended fatally for two and left at least a dozen injured.
Brandon Ray Gonzales, 23, was taken into custody Monday morning upon arrival to a Greenville auto dealership, where he washes cars.
Upon arraignment, Gonzales was charged with Capital Murder, and his bond was set at $1 million.

However, since then, the 23-year-old, father of 3, has maintained his innocence. During an exclusive interview with WFAA-TV from the Hunt County Jail, Brandon stated he was dressed as a Security guard for the Halloween themed Homecoming party, but was not inside the Party Venue when the shooter opened fire. Brandon said he was in his car and has witnesses who can corroborate his story.
However, authorities say they were able to identify Gonzales as the alleged shooter after “pushing and pushing until people finally started coming forward.” Authorities also state they believe Gonzales went to the venue to target one specific person and then opened random fire into the crowd.

As the investigation continues, this story is still developing. However, a motive remains unknown. Our deepest condolences to the families of Kevin Berry Jr. and Byron Craven Jr., both 23, who were killed.


NCAA Officially Allows Student-Athletes To Get Paid For Their Name, Image And Likeness!
This Tuesday, NCAA officials announced that college athletes will be able to benefit financially for any use of their name, image, and likeness, which is already true for one of the largest states in the US.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As reported by CBS News, the decision will add rules that will allow student-athletes to acquire agents, get endorsements, and much more. This monumental moment was advocated by former college athletes who turned pro for months before the decision.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

An NCAA official stated the decision will also “help further support collegiate athletics.” ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
“We must embrace change to provide the best possible experience for college athletes,” Michael Drake, the President of Ohio State University, who reportedly chaired a task force that investigated the idea of the new law, shared in a statement. “Additional flexibility in this area can and must continue to support college sports as a part of higher education. This modernization for the future is a natural extension of the numerous steps NCAA members have taken in recent years to improve support for student-athletes, including full cost of attendance and guaranteed scholarships.”⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

This announcement comes one month after California allowed their student-athletes to be compensated for their likeness. The new California law will take effect in 2023. This will make it possible for private and public school college athletes to obtain sneaker endorsements, sports drink deals, and more.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
“As a national governing body, the NCAA is uniquely positioned to modify its rules to ensure fairness and a level playing field for student-athletes,” President of the NCAA Mark Emmert explained. “The board’s action today creates a path to enhance opportunities for student-athletes while ensuring they compete against students and not professionals.”
