#RHOA: Nene Leakes’ Son’s Baby Mama Allegedly Contacted Bravo To Expose NeNe and her Son!
Bryan Bryant and his Real Housewives of Atlanta star mother have been called out multiple occasions by Symone Davis for refusing to acknowledge his son. The interior designer wants to be featured on the show to expose the two.
Recently, Nene Leakes bought a house for her oldest son’s 30th birthday. The 4 bedroom 3 bathroom home put a wide smile on Bryson’s face who has allegedly cleaned up his life but sent Davis on an Instagram rant.

She told followers hat the RHOA personality only bought the house because it’s good for her image but her son is still up to no good.
A new report by Radar Online revealed that Symone wants to be on the reality show.
 ‘She wants to be on the show. She has tried to contact Bravo over and over. NeNe is not going to respond to her. Symone is telling the truth but the way she’s going about it is crazy.’

This comes after a few months ago when she told her followers that the 30-year-old didn’t show up to his son’s birthday party. She added that people regularly contact her to tell her that they’ve seen him doing drugs.
Before that, Symone blasted Leakes for threatening to take out a restraining order on her and sending a nasty email.
The message from the Glee alum allegedly read: ‘If I was Symone, I would run like h***. I suggest if Symone is pregnant, she think long and hard about this because Bryson is definitely not what she wants if she claims to want a career and a future My next step is to have a restraining order on Symone…and anyone else I feel that is entering my home, taking pics and posting them on social media.’

The threat continued: ‘DO NOT ever reach out to my manage[r] and use my name again! For your information NO he would NEVER rep you! Who the f*** are you!’

Do you think Bravo will bring Symone to the show?

#HipHopNews: Drake And The Weeknd Squash Their Beef!
Drake and The Weeknd appear to be on good terms once again. The 6 God opened up about repairing their estranged relationship on his new “War” freestyle, which dropped on Monday night as part of Oliver El-Khatib’s mixtape, El-Kuumba Tape Vol. 1.

“OVO XO link up,” raps Drizzy before addressing their renewed bond. “And the boy that sound like he sang on Thriller / You know that’s been my ni**a / We just had to fix things, family, 6 things, we can’t split up.”
The reunion follows reports of a fallout between the “Crew Love” collaborators. Back in January, it was rumored that The Weeknd was taking shots at his fellow Canadian on Gesaffelstein’s “Lost in the Fire,” where he sang about hiding a child, a possible reference to Drake’s son Adonis. “And I just want a baby with the right one / ‘Cause I could never be the one to hide one,” he sings.

He also addressed an unresolved beef on Nav’s “Price on My Head.” “You beefin’ with yourself, tell the truth,” sings The Weeknd. “Ni**as on your side, they would ride for me too / Still wasting they time, tryna come for me too / I’m too busy, faded in Japan with the crew / With the crew, with the crew, with the crew.”

The Toronto natives last shared the stage at 2017’s OVO Fest, where Drake announced a potential OVO and XO collaborative project.

Princess Love and Ray J Welcome Baby Boy Amid Marriage Drama!
Princess Love and Ray J have welcomed their second child together, a baby boy. A rep for Princess Love confirms to E! News that the star has given birth. The Prella Cosmetics founder and the rapper are already parents to 17-month-old daughter Melody Love Norwood.

Ray J took to social media to share the news with his fans, posting a YouTube video of him and Princess Love in the hospital.

"I love you princess love! And my babygirl melody! I don't ever wanna lose our time together. I'm sorry for everything," Ray J captioned the video, referencing the couple's marriage troubles. "2020 will be somthing very special."

Shortly before their little bundle of joy arrived, Princess Love showed her Instagram followers how she was prepping for her son's arrival. She posted a picture of an adorable newborn onesie that had the words "Little Brother" written across the front, which she got to match Melody's "Big Sister" t-shirt.
Back in October, the Love and Hip Hop stars shared that they were expecting a baby boy with an epic gender reveal. While riding in a helicopter, Ray J dropped blue smoke from the sky to unveil the baby's gender while Princess Love and Melody watched from below. "We're having a boy!" the "Sexy Can I" rapper shouted from the helicopter.

Their wonderful addition comes amid the couple's marriage drama, which began unfolding in November when Princess Love claimed that Ray J abandoned her and Melody in Las Vegas.
She blasted the "One Wish" rapper by recalling the moment in a comment she left on his Instagram, writing, "Left me and Melody stranded in Las Vegas and blocked me from calling... now you wanna post family photos. #ByeUgly."

After deleting the post and blocking his wife on social media, Ray J pleaded with Princess Love to put an end to the "crazy" drama days later. "To insinuate I've done anything to harm my daughter is sad, man," he said in a video. "I just don't understand how somebody can get stranded when we never left, we've been right here.

"People are going to get into little arguments here and there," he continued. "It's small stuff that you could work out, but to take this to social media and create this crazy story about me leaving my baby in harm's way is not cool. I apologize for everything that's happened."
Ending the video with a shout-out to Melody and saying that he missed her "so much it hurts," Princess Love was quick to point out the holes in his story. She wrote, "If we've 'so called' been there the whole time, why would you miss your baby?"
After hearing her husband's plea, it was reported that Princess Love was allegedly filing for divorce. Then, she fired back at the "Hit It First" rapper with another fiery claim on her social media.

"He basically admitted he had been entertaining, you know, some women," she said, alleging that she discovered Ray J's "extra phone" for contacting women. In another post, she wrote, "A man will have a whole wife, kid and baby on the way and start an argument with you... just to go to his other hotel room to party with escorts and strippers."

Weeks later, Ray J addressed the entire situation on The Wendy Williams Show and once again tried to reconcile with his wife. "Hey, Princess! I love you, baby if you're watching," he said into the camera. "Hey, Melody. I love you. I love y'all. I'll be home soon."
After confirming that he and Princess Love are still married, Ray J insisted that he'd "die first before I leave them on the side of the road." Still, he admitted that he's not totally in the right.

"She's right. I'm not going to even defend it," he added. "Baby, I was wrong. You are right. I have to do better, and I have to understand my wife is pregnant…I have to think a little more wiser when I'm making decisions."

He then denied Princess Love's claims that he cheated on her thought out their marriage. "Oh no. It would never be like that," Ray J said. "I would never get married if it wasn't super locked between us. I think what we gotta work on is keeping your circle tight. Me, her and our baby."
 
 
Jazz Jennings ''Is Proud'' to Share Photos of Her Gender Confirmation Surgery Scars!
A year and a half after the 19-year-old activist and reality TV personality underwent gender confirmation surgery, Jazz is practicing self-love in honor of the end of 2019. The I Am Jazz star took to Instagram on Tuesday with an empowering message to go along with the first public photos of her surgery scars.

"These are my scars on full display in #2019," she captioned the bathing suit pic. "I'm proud of my scars and love my body just the way it is. I call them my battle wounds because they signify the strength and perseverance it took to finally complete my transition."
In a separate Instagram post, Jazz recalled the unexpected and "major" post-surgery complication she endured in 2018. At the time, Jazz was forced to undergo a second procedure to correct the issue.  As she described, "It was a tough journey, but experiences like that one only make us stronger in the end. Though it can be hard at times, a positive mindset and the support of those around you can help you conquer any challenge. Thank you to all my fans who have supported me throughout the years!"

It's been quite a transformative year for Jazz, who graduated from high school in June (as the valedictorian, no less!) and continued her advocacy efforts on behalf of the LGBTQ+ community. She was also accepted into Harvard University, but ultimately deferred her entrance to prioritize her health.
"It wasn't an easy decision but it is the right one for me. These past few years have been so full and busy that I realized I could use some time to refocus and recenter to be the strongest version of myself," she wrote at the time. "I am so grateful to have the support of my parents and Harvard in making this decision and look forward to focusing on some self-care and getting prepared to start this exciting next chapter in my life."

Season 6 of I Am Jazz is expected to air on TLC in 2020.
 
 
Lupita Nyong’o says Being on a movie sets can be ‘isolating’!
Lupita Nyong’o says movie sets can be lonely places. The 36-year-old actress refuses to be drawn on her personal life, explaining that “privacy is a commodity that is hard to come by” but admitted that she can sometimes find herself quite lonely on set when separated from her loved ones.
She told British Vogue: “Filming is so time-consuming. And intense. With Black Panther, a lot of us were single. On Little Monsters, nobody was single. Everyone, when they’re done with their day’s work, wants to go home to their families, which makes a whole lot of sense. When you don’t have that it’s very isolating.”

Nyong’o also revealed that she is deeply passionate about her work and tries to choose roles that will make a difference in the world.
She explained: “It’s passion. I definitely want to claim ambition, but I get very compulsive about the things I am passionate about, to the point of not sleeping. It’s very impractical. I fight the barriers that I form for myself because they’re often ridiculous.
“I don’t get fulfillment from the number of zeros attached to a project. What I’m seduced by is the potential to shift a narrative. That is very seductive to me, having social and cultural impact.”
And Nyong’o also explained that she is happy to speak out about her political beliefs, but it has to be for a cause she believes in.

She said: “I speak up for the things I can personally vouch for. There’s a lot going on in this world, a lot of causes that are noble. But I feel most useful when I have a personal connection. And the conviction to say something.”

 “I’m in the hospital so sick of n—-s, that’s a 2010 Veyron man, you shoulda just got the Uber app on ya phone … it’s 2020 Chiron Man hahaha Put that bull—- back on that truck.”
French Montana swung back at Curtis Jackson’s insult with some stinging words of his own, starting with a meme of Fifty looking like famous snitch Tekashi 6ix9ine. Montana also called Fifty a “rat” in the caption.

French added this caption: “MAURY “POSITIVE “DONT LET GO OVER YOUR HEAD πŸ˜‚ ( casavnova voice ) !! WOKE UP MAD AT ME FACE A–πŸ˜‚. HEY DINOSAUR …A GUY PULLED UP ON ME IN A CAR THAT COST TWO MILLION DOLLARS …..THAT I LIKED AND I PAYED FOR IT UNDER 10k MILES TRUE STORY… IM PETTY TWO DINOSAUR LOL….

French also came back at 50 by telling him that he tried to “bully” the wrong person.
 
 
Usher Talks Ringing in a Rockin’ New Year and His 2020 Album!
*R&B superstar Usher rang in the new year performing at the Allstate Fan Fest in New Orleans, as part of Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve With Ryan Seacrest.
“What better place to bring in the new year?” Usher says in a new interview with Billboard. “They’ve been doing it for a very, very long time, and I’m really happy to now, after 40 years, be able to ring it in on my 41st year,” he laughs. “Couldn’t come at a better time.”

The soulful singer has dropped his final single of the decade: a collaboration with Ella Mai titled “Don’t Waste My Time” the award-winning singer dished about how that collaboration came together, as well as what fans can expect from him in 2020.

Peep excerpts from the conversation below.
Billboard caught up with Usher - to hear about how that collaboration came...

You just put out “Don’t Waste My Time” a couple of weeks ago. Will fans be hearing that during your New Year’s Eve set?

Actually, none of the new records that I’ve created am I going to be able to perform [on television]. However, I may splash something in there for the full set to kind of keep people motivated. Some of the new songs I put out on [2018’s] A project might be in the set. There’s two portions of the actual show: There’s one that’s going to be live broadcasted, which should be anywhere from 8-10 minutes, and then there’s an entire show that I put together. So between the two broadcasts, you’ll hear some newer things, but not as new as the two recent duets that I’ve done. [He also collaborated with Summer Walker earlier this year.]

We talked to Ella Mai recently and she said she was shocked by how excited you were to work with her on “Don’t Waste My Time.” What made you want to recruit her for the song?

I genuinely am a fan of her voice, and also felt like the song was perfect for both of us. I was working with Bryan Michael Cox and Jermaine Dupri in Atlanta, and we worked on a song with VEDO — I worked with him as one of my mentees on The Voice, the first season that I coached. The more I listened to “Don’t Waste My Time,” I felt like it was missing a female’s perspective. So we flipped it up, changed the second verse to a female’s story, and I felt like she was great for it. I reached out to her, and it took a minute, but we finally managed to get in the room with each other, and the rest is becoming history.

It’s pretty undeniable how perfectly you two work for the song.

It’s got that classic R&B feel. Between everything she’s done, the audience she’s growing, and the audience I’ve been able to accumulate over years and years, it’s a happy moment.

When I listen to it, I hear a lot of tones of Michael Jackson in it. When we put it together, I was like, “Man, this feels like the first single off his Thriller album” — it was a duet [with Paul McCartney, “The Girl Is Mine”], it sounds similar to this song. If this forthcoming album has any expectations of being as big as that, I mean, that’s a good start, right? But I do think it’s just a really great record that has great positive energy, and brings both of our audiences together.

Looking back on this past decade, how do you feel like you’ve grown and evolved as an artist?

This decade has represented growth for me. For the most part, the design of [the past two] decades have continued to really work for me to expand my reach through music. Also, too, just as a human being that wants to make music that connects the world, and expand R&B, and all of the rhythm and blues that has come through my own personal experiences that I chose to write about. Or the places that I’ve gone that kind of introduced other genres — and even though they were other genres of music, I still had the soul in it. Just really happy to continue to knock down these decades and start a new one.

Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve With Ryan Seacrest will begin at 8 p.m. tonight (12-31-19) on ABC.

Get the rest of this interview with Usher at Billboard.
 
 
#SERIOUSLY? Barack Obama and Donald Trump Tie in 2019 Gallup Poll for ‘Most Admired Man’!
*President Donald Trump and his predecessor Barack Obama have tied for the title of America’s most admired man, according to Gallup’s annual poll.
This marks the first time Trump has earned the distinction, and the 12th time for Obama.
According to the Daily Mail, eighteen percent of Americans quizzed in that Gallop poll nominated Trump as the man that they admired most, while another 18 percent of voters named former president Obama as  the man “living today in any part of the world” that they admired most.

No other man on the ballot – which included Tesla CEO Elon Musk and Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders – was named by more than two percent of voters, the report states.
The poll, which was carried out in the first two weeks of December, also named Michelle Obama as the most influential woman in America, doubling the vote received by Melania Trump.

Via abc.com: Finishing out in the top 10 are former President Jimmy Carter, businessman Elon Musk, Microsoft founder and philanthropist Bill Gates, Pope Francis, Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., California Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., the Dalai Lama, and investor Warren Buffett.
Since 1948, Gallup has asked U.S. adults to identify which man and woman living anywhere in the world they admire most in an open-ended poll. Throughout the years, Americans often choose the incumbent president as the most admired man.

The top 10 most admired women also include: Oprah Winfrey, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, teen climate activist Greta Thunberg, England’s Queen Elizabeth II, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley.
