HOT or NOT? Gabrielle Union in Dundas!

We’ve been singing the praises of Miss Gabrielle’s home-bound fashion choices all through this hellyear, but this look is cute – which is ironic, because she’s doing something we almost always think needs to be approached with severe caution: head-to-toe leather.


It’s tough to pull off for just about anyone, but somehow…she’s making it look effortless and breezy. And it’s a leather jumpsuit, to boot.

Thoughts?



Former Miss America winner Leanza Cornett dies at 49!

Leanza Cornett, who was crowned Miss America in 1993, has died at the age of 49.

The Miss America Organization confirmed the beauty queen's passing on Wednesday, writing, "Leanza had a bright and beautiful spirit and her laugh was infectious. We know she meant so much to so many, including all of you."

The industry has been "devastated by this sudden loss," and "are deeply sorry for her family and close friends for their loss."


The organization declined to reveal her cause of death, writing, "At the moment, we do not have any further information regarding a service for Leanza and we ask that you please respect her family during this difficult time."

Cornett's ex-husband Mark Steines, who shared sons Kai, 18, and Avery, 16, with her, took to Instagram to honor his late wife, vowing, "We will always remember the wonderful times shared during her short time here on earth. I find comfort knowing Kai and Avery will forever have the best guardian angel watching over them as they navigate life's path."


Cornett went on to play the first live-action Ariel in "The Little Mermaid" stage production at Walt Disney World, and had cameos in shows such as "Weeds" and "Saved by the Bell: The New Class."



#RHOA: NeNe Leakes Responds to Tyra Banks About Not Having Women From The Housewives Franchise On ‘Dancing With The Stars’!

Recently Tyra Banks made headlines for an alleged comment about her not wanting women from the Real Housewives franchise appearing on “Dancing With The Stars.” A rep for Tyra later spoke out and denied that Tyra made the comment. However, that did not stop Nene Leakes from commenting on the matter despite her being unsure if Tyra said it or not.


Last week Tyra’s publicist Elana Rose spoke with Page Six and denied that Tyra made the comment and said, “This is 100 percent untrue. She’s a huge fan of the ‘Housewives’ and everyone knows Tyra is a businesswoman first. As a businesswoman, why would she say anything against the ‘Housewives’? She has nothing to do with casting.”

Now that it has been established that Nene won’t be back for the upcoming season of “Real Housewives of Atlanta,” she introduced her new show “The Read Session,” and gave her fans a taste of what they can expect from the show as she had four friends join her to talk about different topics.


One of the topics discussed was the rumored comment from Tyra.

Nene said, “Tyra I thought you and I were cool girl. I was on ‘Dancing with the Stars,’ before you was.”

Nene’s co-hosts/ friends all chimed in on the situation and mentioned that Tyra spoke out and said that she never said the comment. However, one friend did say that he believes that Tyra said it within her team, and once her team got a hold of the comment they put it out.


They continued to discuss the benefits of having the ladies from the housewives franchise appearing on the show because people are always talking about them.

“I don’t know if she said it or not for sure, for sure, for sure, but just in case you did, we just wanted to touch on that,” said Nene.


As previously reported, Tyra was named the first black woman to actually host “DWTS.”



#NewMusic from DJ Camper Featuring Brandy ‘Sleep’!

Camper is untouchable right now. Although the Grammy-winning hitmaker has yet to put a date on his mysterious debut album, in between that time working under the radar, he has continued to gain name visibility for his recent work with John Legend, Mary J. Blige, Lonr., and above all, Brandy. Camper recruits the vocal virtuoso for his new single “Sleep.”


Arriving just in time for cuffing season, Camper sings about how he should be cuddled up with his love interest. On the soothing track, Camper holds down the lead vocals, while Brandy contributes her airy background vocals and ad-libs.

The two worked closely together on Brandy’s latest album, B7, including the fan-favorite and critically-acclaimed song “Borderline.”

Back in May, Camper shared satisfying jam “Grip” as the lead single from his forthcoming LP. The following month, he made a guest appearance on Legend’s song “I’m Ready” from his Bigger Love. The album was among Rated R&B’s 16 Best R&B Albums of 2020 (So Far) list.



#HipHopNews: 2 Chainz Confirms Another Release Date Delay For 'So Help Me God' Album!

2 Chainz’s So Help Me God album won’t be dropping on Friday (October 30), and he’s not sure when it will. While hyping up his performance at the 2020 BET Hip Hop Awards on Tuesday night (October 27), the Def Jam artist confirmed another delay of his sixth studio LP.


“My album will be coming out — actually, I’ll let y’all know the exact date,” he said. “I don’t wanna keep saying dates and they keep pushing it back. But I’m about to drop my album. My next single comes out next week.”

So Help Me God has been delayed twice so far. 2 Chainz’s next album was originally scheduled to drop on September 25 but got pushed back to October 30.

2 Chainz previously suggested his upcoming project will be his last album for Def Jam Recordings. In an October interview with Complex, he claimed his LP was experiencing delays due to sample clearances.


“Fans probably can’t relate, but artists can relate all the time,” he said. “What’s happening is a lot of the artists who can’t afford it, a lot of them got taken advantage of in a few different ways. When we go back and dig in the crate and use the samples from artists that are still living, they try to cash out on the replays or re-dos of their project. So we have to come up to an amicable split to where they’re happy with somebody using it.”


2 Chainz hasn’t dropped a solo album since 2019’s Rap Or Go To The League. Earlier this year, he teamed up with his T.R.U. roster to share a compilation titled No Face No Case.



Tiffany Haddish ‘Allegedly’ Dumps Common unfollows in Social Media!

This arrives after the 40-year-old ‘Girls Trip’ star calls out her ex-boyfriends in an Instagram Story post for being too clingy, writing, ‘I am so sick of my ex F**k Boys and yes YOU still a F**k boy even if we was in a relationship.’


Fans are rooting for Tiffany Haddish and rapper Common‘s romantic relationship, but it seems like they are now over. If a new report is to be believed, the “Girls Trip” star dumped the rapper/actor because he was not masculine enough for her.

reported that the actress/comedienne told her friend that the “Just Wright” star was too much of a “b***h a** n***a” which made her grow tired of him. According to the so-called friend, Common is “too soft,” while the actress “needs someone that’s a little harder.”


To back up the claims, the site noted that Common isn’t with Tiffany who is currently in Budapest, Hungary to film a new movie. Additionally, the two have apparently unfollowed each other on Instagram.

Neither Tiffany nor Common has responded to the breakup reports.


This arrives after Tiffany blasted her ex-boyfriends for being too clingy. Writing on Instagram Story on Monday, October 26, Tiffany ranted, “THIS IS FOR MOST OF MY EXS. BITS AND PIECES ARE FOR DIFFERENT ONES. I am so sick of my ex F**k Boys and yes YOU still a F**k boy even if we was in a relationship because you still was trying to f**k when it was over, Boy.”

The 40-year-old later told her exes to “stop reaching out to me trying to be my friend, I don’t want to be your friend.” She added, “Plus you got a whole women and Babies on they way and we been done for years.”


“But you want a windfall of money, and want me to make that wind go? Huh hahaha if I thought that would remove you from my entire life I would,” so she claimed. Advising them to move on, she said, “Just act like I never said I love you. When the real you showed up I was disappointed and disgusted, so please go away forever. PEACE AND HAPPINESS BE UPON YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.”


Tiffany and Common first met on the set of 2019 movie “The Kitchen“, but their friendship turned romantic only at the beginning of the coronavirus lockdown when they went on a virtual date. They were then spotted at a Black Lives Matter protest in June.

Letoya Luckett Shares 1st Look At Infant Son Tysun!

Letoya Luckett and husband Tommicus Walker are showing off the first photos of their month-old infant, Tysun.

The singer and businessman welcomed the newest addition to their family on Sept. 14, 2020. Then, Luckett recited the particulars of his birth, which included a 4:03 a.m. arrival and weight of 9 pounds and 7 ounces. “Overjoyed! Thank you Heavenly Father,” Luckett said at the time on Instagram.


The couple waited nearly 60 days to share photos of their miracle with their followers, captioning their Instagram photos simply “Tysun Wolf Walker.”


In the first photo that Luckett showed off for her 2 million IG followers, the tyke is looking up at his 39-year-old mother. He is outfitted with a white cap, and his lips are slightly parted.


Walker, also 39, then showed the tiny tot looking directly at the camera as if he’s aware of what’s going on.

Luckett and Walker were married in 2017 and brought their daughter, Gianna, into the world in January 2019.


Walker also has a daughter, Madison, from a previous relationship.



Barack Obama to Appear on LeBron James's 'The Shop'!

Former President Barack Obama will be featured on the latest episode of LeBron James's HBO show The Shop: Uninterrupted on Friday.

The special edition show, which was produced under COVID-19 guidelines, will feature a conversation with Obama, James and his business partner Maverick Carter. They will discuss the NBA bubble, the racial justice movement, voting and the presidential election.


"Two years ago, LeBron and Maverick created a unique forum with 'The Shop,'" said Nina Rosenstein, executive vice president of HBO Programming in a release. "Their conversation with President Obama is candid, compelling and urgently relevant."

Before leading the Lakers to their latest NBA title, James was part of a small group of NBA players that received advice from Obama in August as they decided on how to proceed with the season amid on-going social justice protests.

Their conversation came shortly after the Bucks elected to sit out Game 5 of the Eastern Conference quarterfinals against the Magic on Oct. 26 to protest the police shooting of 29-year-old Jacob Blake in Kenosha, Wis.


"I commend the players on the Bucks for standing up for what they believe in, coaches like Doc Rivers, and the NBA and WNBA for setting an example. It’s going to take all our institutions to stand up for our values," Obama said in an Oct. 26 tweet.

The players later voted to resume the 2020 playoffs, and ESPN reported Obama was in favor of the players returning to the court once they were able to work with the owners to implement actionable change items.


Friday's episode of The Shop: Uninterrupted will air at 9 p.m. ET on Friday on HBO and will be available to stream on HBO Max.



The Masked Dancer: Craig Robinson to Host Fox's Masked Singer Spinoff!

Welcome to the Masked-verse, Craig Robinson: The Office alum has been tapped to host The Masked Dancer, Fox’s upcoming Masked Singer spinoff, TVLine has learned.

The offshoot, which was partially inspired by a segment on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, will feature incognito celebrities shaking their tail feathers (and googly eyes and sequins, we assume) as the audience and judges attempt to guess their identities.


And speaking of judges, Fox has announced the following panelists for The Masked Dancer: music industry vet Paula Abdul, High School Musical‘s Ashley Tisdale, Beverly Hills, 90210 alum Brian Austin Green (who competed as the Giraffe on the current season of The Masked Singer) and Ken Jeong (who’s also a Masked Singer judge and hosts the Fox game show I Can See Your Voice).


“We’ve begun filming The Masked Dancer with incredible new talent on both sides of the mask, and can’t wait to share the series with viewers,” said Rob Wade, president of alternative entertainment and specials at Fox. “Craig Robinson is hilarious as always in his role as host, and Ken, Brian, Ashley and Paula are the perfect blend of personalities to lead our awesomely weird world of masks into a whole new genre!”


Robinson is perhaps best known for his nine seasons on The Office, where he played Dunder Mifflin warehouse employee Darryl Philbin. Since then, he has appeared on Mr. Robot, Ghosted, What We Do in the Shadows and recurs on Brooklyn Nine-Nine as Doug Judy aka the Pontiac Bandit.


The Masked Dancer will premiere sometime in December, though an exact date is still TBD.

Chelsea Handler Claims 50 Cent Wasn’t Serious About Supporting Trump!

Chelsea Handler claims her ex 50 Cent was just kidding when he posted his apparent support for Trump in the upcoming election.

According to ABC News, the comedian who appeared on “The View” earlier today, detailed a phone conversation she had with the rapper after a social media post he made showing support for Trump made headlines.

50 posted a picture of a CNBC graphic showing the impact of Biden’s proposed tax cuts on October 19th, with the rapper humorously claiming he didn’t want to become “20 Cent”.


The infamous post was marked by Instagram for “missing context.” Biden has already clarified that his his plan wouldn’t raise federal income taxes for Americans earning less than $400,000 a year. Once 50’s posts went viral, Handler stepped in, even offering to pay his taxes.

Handler who is promoting her new HBO Max comedy special “Evolution” has claimed in several interviews that she has spoken with 50 and that he’s admitted to her that he was just kidding.


“I had to remind him that he was a Black person, so he can’t vote for Donald Trump, and that he shouldn’t be influencing an entire swath of people who may listen to him because he’s worried about his own personal pocketbook,” she told the show’s host, Jimmy Fallon on October 23rd.

On “The View”, she reiterated by explaining that she spoke on the phone with 50 Cent on Monday and that he further clarified who he’s supporting for president during their call.


“He wasn’t serious. He was just screwing around on his Twitter. He is supporting Joe Biden. He made that very clear to me,” Handler said



ABC News taps Galen Gordon to replace ousted Barbara Fedida!

ABC News has named the replacement for ousted exec Barbara Fedida.

Fedida was dramatically booted from her role as senior vice president for talent and development in July after an investigation showed that she made racially insensitive comments on the job, including some about “Good Morning America’s” Robin Roberts.


On Wednesday, ABC News president James Goldston said in a memo, seen by Page Six, that Galen Gordon will take the job starting in November. He said Gordon would help to “build a truly representative and inclusive culture” at the network.



NC Pastor Accused Of Urinating On Delta Flight Passenger ID’d By Police!

On Tuesday, police identified the North Carolina pastor accused of urinating on a woman during a Delta flight from Las Vegas to Detroit earlier this month.

The Winston-Salem Journal obtained a copy of the police report naming Daniel Chalmers as the suspect. When the flight landed at Wayne Metro Airport in Detroit on October 12, the police arrested him.

A passenger named Alicia Beverly told police she woke up around 2:45 a.m. to a man standing over. She didn’t initially realize what was happening until she felt her clothes were wet. Beverly alerted the flight crew, and when asked what happened, she screamed, “He peed on me!” The crew moved her to another seat.


When questioned by police, Chalmers initially denied any wrongdoing had occurred.

“Whatever it is she is accusing me of, I didn’t do it,” he said to police. “I’m a pastor, that is out of my character, and I didn’t do it.”


The police report states that the officer questioning him noticed a wet spot on his shorts. The victim’s clothes were covered in urine, as well as the seat she was sitting in on the plane.

Initially, Chalmers denied drinking any alcohol, even though it was evident to authorities that he reeked of alcohol and had bloodshot eyes. He eventually admitted to the police officer that he had taken medication and later admitted to having a few drinks.


An FBI agent issued Chalmers a ticket and released him.

According to the Journal, Chalmers leads the Love Wins Ministries in Raleigh and is a staff member of at Catch the Fire Raleigh-Durham church.



AND FINALLY FROM “THE CRAZY PEOPLE SHOPPING AT WALMART” FILES

‘HELL ON HEELS’

High heels and a bikini can mean only 2 things: (1) She is a stripper and/or (2) She twists her ankles a lot walking on a sandy beaches….On a side note I wonder if she does shopping cart dances or motorized cart dances.



HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND ALL!!!
