#RHOA: NeNe Denies Body-Shaming Porsha After Pregnancy She said: 'You Were Fat Before'!
NeNe Leakes isn’t apologizing for comments she made about her Real Housewives of Atlanta costar Porsha Williams‘ body.
On Sunday’s episode of the Bravo show, Leakes insisted that her insults had nothing to do with the fact that Williams had just given birth.
“[Porsha] went into all this fat-shaming and all this stuff. I’m like, no it wasn’t,” Leakes recalled of Williams. “You were fat before you got pregnant. I’m saying … “
Leakes, 52, made headlines in March with her remarks, which she texted to Williams just six days after the reality star gave birth to her first child, daughter Pilar Jhena.
In the conversation, Leakes was upset over Williams’ claim that Leakes had put her hands on her during the infamous closet incident, calling Williams a “lying ass big fat hungry bitch” and a “big piggy with the busted shape.”
“Try dieting,” Leakes said, referencing Williams’ “giant body” and smaller ankles. “That’s something you have never been good at.”
Williams, 38, immediately shared screengrabs of the texts to Instagram. “This is what my so called ‘Big sis’ sent me 6 days after giving birth,” Williams wrote. “NeNe is so miserable and ain’t happy for nobody. #FatShamingANewMomShameOnYou.”
Though Williams later deleted her post, Leakes likened her publishing their private messages to revenge porn.
“I take stuff personally,” Leakes said on Sunday’s episode. “She took the text and put it on social media. It’s sorta like you shared some nude pictures with your husband, he gets mad at you and puts them on social media. Those pictures are for his eyes only. Me and her texting was a personal thing.”
The RHOA O.G. was apparently so angry, that she allegedly sent Williams a cease and desist — something that fractured their friendship even more.
“After that whole Instagram back and forth that she started with me, she ended up sending me a cease and desist,” Williams claimed to PEOPLE in April. “So once she sent me a cease and desist, at that point, I was like, ‘You know what? This is just a sure sign that I should be done with the relationship.’ So I’m over it. I’m concentrating on my baby girl. And people who love and support me at this moment.”
“I think for anyone who just gave birth and is trying to get used to her brand new body, it’s difficult, right? And you wouldn’t want anybody to add to how stressful and how you mentally think about yourself,” Williams added. “You don’t want them to add to the stress of that. So that was hard.”
While Williams may not have been talking to Leakes, Leakes said she hoping the two could reconcile.
“I’m open to having some sort of conversation with Porsha,” Leakes said on Sunday. “I’ve always liked Porsha.”
That’s not the same way she felt about longtime rival Kenya.
“If I wanted to talk about Kenya I could be we’ve never been friends,” Leakes explained.
“Kenya and I really aren’t cool like that. We’re not friends like that. I don’t owe her anything and honestly, she doesn’t owe me anything,” Leakes added. “And I’m fine with that.”

#NewMusicVideo from Skip Marley and H.E.R. “Slow Down”!
If you thought the vibe between Skip Marley and H.E.R. was magical on their collaborative effort, “Slow Down,” then the visual will only heighten those feelings.
Shot in New York City and directed by Lacey Duke, the visual is an ode to black love, opening in a retro diner when an intrigued Skip catches the eyes of H.E.R. Things heat up when the two take over the dance floor at a feel-good party in an uptown brownstone. In today’s social media-driven culture, it’s delightful to see a spontaneous love connection not triggered by the click of a finger.
“Slow Down” recently peaked at #1 on the Billboard Reggae Digital Sales chart and is Skip’s fastest streaming song to date.

As Jamaican music legend Bob Marley’s 75th birthday celebrations kick-off, Skip carries on as the newest rising star in the family tradition of his grandfather — a foundational icon in the reggae, roots, rock, soul, and hip-hop saga of Island Records.
Skip’s music is a reggae-hybrid that effortlessly blends eras, genres, and styles, while showing off his musicianship and poetic lyricism. His natural talent comes as no surprise – music is quite literally in his blood. Skip’s songs pay homage to the deep and widespread legacy of the Marley family, which includes his uncles, reggae greats Ziggy, Damian and Stephen; and his aunt, singer Marcia Griffiths of the renowned I Three female vocal trio, with Skip’s grandmother Rita Marley.
#HipHopNews: Kanye West Reportedly Almost Named 'Yeezus' Album 'Thank God For Drugs'!
Former DONDA art director Joe Perez has revealed the original name for Kanye West’s 2013 album Yeezus was initially Thank God For Drugs. The revelation came as Perez was posting old concept designs from his tenure at the Kanye-led design firm to Instagram.
“3.2.2013 – Pre-Yeezus gif concepts – Round 2,” he captioned the post. “Before naming the album Yeezus, the title was ‘Thank God For Drugs.'”
Perez also included GIFs of the design work. The front cover design was similar to the final Yeezus cover, with the exception of the title written across the top in child-like handwriting. He displayed the back case with an image of a pipe-cleaner figure laying under a pile of prescription pills as well.
Perez noted the art featured in the design was by My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy collaborator George Condo with creative input from DONDA creative director Virgil Abloh.
Along with the casing design, Perez revealed the actual name for the album’s accompanying Yeezus Tour was originally called the Till Death Do Us Part Tour.
While Perez gave Ye fans a trip down memory lane, Ye has been grabbing headlines with Jesus Is King as well as the non-secular rant he went on following Drake’s Rap Radar interview.

#BoxOfficeNews: 'Star Wars' won With $34M, 'The Grudge' Opens at $11M!
Disney's Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker stayed atop the chart in its third weekend with $33.7 million for a domestic total of $450.8 million to date. The tentpole also held at No. 1 with another $50.5 million for a foreign tally of $468 million and $918.8 million worldwide. The movie continues to trail the previous installment, Star Wars: The Last Jedi, in North America after almost catching up at one point.
While The Grudge didn't break any January records, Sony still enjoyed a stellar weekend overall. Jumanji: The Next Level wasn't too far behind Rise of Skywalker with $26.5 million in its fourth weekend for a domestic cume of $236.2 million — almost on par with Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle at the same point in its run — while Little Women moved up to No. 3 with $13.6 million after declining just 19 percent in its second weekend.
Directed by Greta Gerwig, Little Women finished Sunday with a domestic total of $60 million. The news is also bright overseas, where the film grossed $9.6 million from six markets for an early offshore total of $20.4 million and $80.4 million globally.
Walt Disney Animation's Frozen 2, which grossed another $11.3 million domestically and $42.4 million overseas, celebrated a major milestone over the weekend as it became the top-grossing animated film of all time with $1.325 billion globally after surpassing Pixar/Disney's The Incredibles 2 ($1.243 billion) and the first Frozen ($1.281 billion), not adjusted for inflation.
Faith Evans Upset About Lifetime Documentary About Her Relationship With Notorious B.I.G!
R&B Queen Faith Evans is reportedly upset over the new Lifetime documentary “Biggie and Faith Evans,” about her life with her late rap legend husband, Notorious B.I.G.
The singer told Page Six she was pretty much bamboozled into participating in the project.
“I feel upset that I’m attached to it. I was told that it would be a positive piece with a little more of my personal background. It wasn’t pitched to me as a story rehashing the sensationalized events that took place,” Faith said.
She continued, “I am beyond that and have no need to open old wounds, damage repaired relationships and, above all, soil the legacy of Christopher Wallace a k a the Notorious B.I.G.”
A trailer for the doc airs January 10 as an episode of the network’s “Hopelessly in Love” series. In series, Faith opens up about their relationship, and it’s being described as “the most controversial love story in hip-hop history, told by those who lived it.”
According to Page Six, the doc claims that “Faith Evans is ready to confront her pain and revisit the most intimate moments of their relationship . . . from their whirlwind engagement to Biggie’s ongoing affairs with Lil’ Kim and Charli Baltimore, to the East Coast-West Coast rivalry that led to Tupac and Big’s deaths.”
“The Tupac stuff, the different women — how many times are people going to talk about that? It was supposed to be a love story, and it turns into cheating and [Lil’] Kim. We’ve come so far past that. [Lifetime’s] all about drama,” Evans said.
Faith, who is a co-administrator of the late rapper’s estate, said the doc mostly uses old edited footage to amp up drama and apparently, she’s not the only one with an issue. She said regarding Biggie’s mother, Voletta Wallace, “Ms. Wallace is pissed. Everyone was blindsided. She has worked very hard for his legacy to be acknowledged in a more positive light. He’s nominated for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. This [doc] is taking steps backward.”
She also stated she will not be promoting the series either. “It’s about my morals. I would never do business I’m not proud of at this point in my career. I’m not happy,” she said.
Da Baby Released From Jail Following Battery Charge!
#DaBaby has been released from jail in South Florida after being arrested on a battery charge.
The rapper, whose real name is Jonathan Kirk, was released Saturday evening from Turner Guilford Knight Correction Center in West Miami-Dade after an arrest warrant from Texas was withdrawn.
We previously reported that Da Baby was involved in an alleged assault and robbery after a Miami promoter was supposed to pay the rapper $30K but only showed up with $20K.
Police say that Da Baby punched the promoter while his entourage attacked the other.
After being arrested for the alleged assault, police discovered that the rapper had an arrest warrant in Texas for his involvement in an alleged criminal activity, according to WSVN. Charges were later dropped.
Da Baby is expected to return to court on Tuesday.
Adele accused of looking ‘too skinny’ in photos with Harry Styles!
The British songstress debuted her new svelte figure during Drake’s 2019 Halloween party, and continued to impress during a recent Christmas get-together. New photos of the pop star, however, have many concerned for her health.
The “Rolling in the Deep” artist was pictured with friends Harry Styles and James Corden enjoying some time in Anguilla this week, and while some focused on a potential collaboration — or a romance — between Styles and the singer, others believe she may have lost too much weight.
“IS THIS ADELE ?!?! someone feed her pls she looks so skinny and not really that healthy …. we should be worrying about her omg,” wrote one tweeter while another added, “Wait, Adele looks way too skinny here should we get worried?”
Others noted that Adele was subject to body shaming before losing the weight and now has to deal with the same issue on the other end of the spectrum.
“Adele isn’t defined by her weight,” wrote one fan. “She can be fat, medium, skinny, or athletic, and still be herself. Stop trying to define people by their weight.”
Another supporter added, “People made fun of Adele for being overweight and now when she’s skinny, people are still making fun or her and commenting on her body. Dammed if you do and dammed I’d you don’t. Just live your life how you want it.”

The four-part limited series also stars Blair Underwood as her husband C.J. Walker, Tiffany Haddish as her daughter Lelia, Carmen Ejogo as Walker’s business rival Addie Munroe, Garrett Morris as Walker’s father-in-law, Kevin Carroll as her longtime lawyer Freeman Ransom and Bill Bellamy as Ransom’s cousin Sweetness.

Trey Songz Facing $10 Million Lawsuit for Alleged Sexual Assault!
Trey Songz is looking at a multi-million dollar lawsuit for allegedly sexually assaulting a woman.
Per documents obtained by The Blast, Songz (birth name Tremaine Neverson) is being sued by an unnamed Georgia woman. According to the lawsuit, the incident took place on Jan. 1, 2018. The singer reportedly invited her to Miami's E11even night club after celebrating New Year’s Eve at Diddy's house. It was in his VIP section at E11even where the assault is said to have taken place.
"[Songz] sexually assaulted and battered Jane Doe by proceeding to forcefully place his hand under her dress, without her consent, and attempting to insert his fingers into Jane Doe’s vagina without her consent or permission," the lawsuit reads.
The victim went on to claim she was not the only woman subjected to assault. Per the documents, another woman confided in her that Songz put his hands down her pants as well. The second victim told the unnamed woman that Songz forcefully touched her butt without consent.
"Neverson intentionally created an offer of bodily injury to Plaintiff by force under circumstances that created a well-founded fear of imminent peril in Plaintiff and Neverson had the present ability to effectuate his attempts to produce bodily injury towards Plaintiff when he reached under her skirt and attempted to insert his fingers into her vagina," the lawsuit claims.
Songz alleged attack has led the Jane Doe to seek more than $10 million from the artist. These damages are the result of the assault and battery as well as intentional infliction of emotional distress and negligent infliction of emotional distress.
This is not the first time Trey Songz has been tangled up in a legal battle regarding a woman. In September, the alleged victim of a domestic assault at the hands of Songz dropped her lawsuit. Andrea Buera claimed that the assault took place during All-Star Weekend in 2018. The singer's legal team claimed that he acted in self-defense and Buera eventually ended her lawsuit.
