#RHOA: Claudia Jordan Calls NeNe Leakes “Miserable With A Rotten Spirit” For Laughing At Domestic Abuse!
Looks like NeNe and Claudia are at it again. Apparently NeNe mocked Claudia’s experience with domestic abuse. And Miss Claudia just broke out the encyclopedia.
Claudia’s Bravo life was short, but at Cynthia Bailey’s wedding. According to UpNewsInfo, it got nasty. Claudia attended blessed event, but NeNe wouldn’t RSVP unless her gift bag came with a $125k check. When NeNe commented about her reason for skipping the party on social media, Claudia responded. She wrote, “Just say you couldn’t make it or felt uncomfortable going. Too many people making this wedding about THEM.”
A fan of NeNe’s was not pleased and wrote an inappropriate reply to Claudia, “I see why that n***a whipped your a**, go get your corns off your toes fixed.” NeNe must have heard a bell ring because she went in to fight. She replied to this person’s with a slew of crying-laughing emojis.
So Claudia unleashed the WRATH. The Jasmine Brand shared screenshots. To NeNe, she said, “OK I guess since you wanna laugh at MY abuse I now have the green light to laugh at the abuse your surgeon been doing to that face.” Claudia proceeded to detail her thoughts regarding NeNe’s personality. “Your attitude sucks, you’re a talentless, illiterate, narcissistic bully who thinks you’re far more important than you really are. Your brand is being rude, abrasive & arrogant. You’re a joke, a punchline at best
Claudia also touched on NeNe insulting Wendy Williams’ medical condition, Claudia said, “If u weren’t so busy sh*tting on ur one talk show friend host & looking down your 5X’s reconstructed monstrosity of a nose- she coulda gave you some tips!” Claudia was NOT lacking content, “You deserve all this karma for all the people you have hurt along the way but now we supposed to feel bad for YOU cause you tricked off YOUR OPPORTUNITY?” she concluded. “This fall from grace will not be pretty & you deserve every bit of your destiny. I hope you saved those ‘coins’ you used to brag about. Doubt it.” But Claudia, what about NeNe’s career???
“The real gag is YOU once told me Hollywood wasn’t checking for ME- well now look who the whole world ain’t checking for- YOU!”, Claudia included. Note to self, don’t make Claudia mad. “Who fumbles a $2 million easy bag?” Then Claudia goes full boss level. “Then films in an empty warehouse & calls it a talk show while looking every bit of a non-union public access tv project?” YIKES!
NeNe hasn’t responded, but she could be preparing a YouTube video at this very moment

#HipHopNews: Eminem Allows ‘Lose Yourself’ To Be Used In Joe Biden Campaign Ad!
Eminem is showing his support for Joe Biden. Just ahead of Election Day, the Detroit rapper has seemingly endorsed the Democratic presidential nominee by allowing his hit “Lose Yourself” to soundtrack a new spot from Biden’s campaign
The 45-second commercial, titled “One Opportunity,” was released Monday and features black-and-white footage of Biden and vice presidential nominee Kamala Harris at the Michigan State Fairgrounds in Em’s hometown of Detroit.
The get-out-the-vote ad features Eminem’s familiar lyrics: “You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow / This opportunity comes once in a lifetime.”
Eminem shared the spot with his millions of followers across social media. “One opportunity… #Vote,” Em captioned it.
According to the Detroit Free Press, this is the first time Em, who’s long been guarded about his music, has licensed his song to a political candidate.
He has been outspoken against Donald Trump in the past. He slammed the president in his music, including on his Revival album and his cypher at the 2017 BET Hip-Hop Awards.
Em is the latest celebrity to endorse the Biden-Harris campaign. Taylor Swift previously gave permission for her song “Only the Young” to be used in a campaign ad to promote the Democratic ticket.
Beyoncé Reveals She's Ready To Take a Break from Music!
Beyoncé is one of the busiest women in the industry. In addition to being a singer, director, and fashion designer, she's also a mother to three children and a wife to Jay-Z. Her schedule is never-ending, but with the global pandemic, she finally took a moment to breathe.
In a new interview with British Vogue, Bey opened up about having more quality time to spend with her family during quarantine, and how the extra days at home made her realize she's officially ready for a break. "I truly cherish this time with my family, and my new goal is to slow down and shed stressful things from my life,” she told the publication. “I came into the music industry at 15 years old and grew up with the world watching, and I have put out projects nonstop.”
“I released Lemonade during the Formation World Tour, gave birth to twins, performed at Coachella, directed Homecoming, went on another world tour with Jay, then Black Is King, all back-to-back,” the singer continued. “It’s been heavy and hectic. I’ve spent a lot of time focusing on building my legacy and representing my culture the best way I know how."
She added, "Now, I’ve decided to give myself permission to focus on my joy.”
Recently, Beyoncé has focused on advocating for racial justice and giving a voice to minorities — which she says she was inspired to do after becoming a mom. "Something cracked open inside of me right after giving birth to my first daughter," she explained. "From that point on, I truly understood my power. It became my mission to make sure she lived in a world where she feels truly seen and valued."
Earlier this month, Bey called to end the police unit known as the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) in Nigeria. The army has been accused of kidnapping, extortion, harassment, and even the unprovoked killing of a man. “I am heartbroken to see the senseless brutality taking place in Nigeria," the singer wrote on Instagram.
“We have been working on partnerships with youth organizations to support those protesting for change. We are collaborating with coalitions to provide emergency healthcare, food and shelter. To our Nigerian sisters and brothers, we stand with you.”
Ice Cube Slams ‘SNL’ For Mocking Him!
Ice Cube is firing back after he was spoofed on “Saturday Night Live.”
In the cold open for this weekend’s Halloween episode, Cube and Lil Wayne were mocked for associating with Donald Trump. Kenan Thompson played Cube, wearing a MAGA hat alongside Chris Reed, who took on the role of Weezy. Jim Carrey, as Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden, asked them why they were supporting the president in the upcoming election.
“Why in the name of all that is holy would you be voting for Trump?” asked Carrey (Biden).
“Taxes!” they responded in unison.×
“Plus, Trump’s got a new Platinum Plan,” added Reed (Wayne), while Thompson (Cube) said, “That’s right! If you got a platinum record, you can plan on him doing a photo op with you.”
The skit earned laughs from the audience, but Cube was not amused. He retweeted the “SNL” clip along with a scathing response. “f**k you SNL…trying to reduce me to greed,” he wrote.
The N.W.A rapper received criticism after revealing that he met with the Trump administration to discuss incorporating his Contract With Black America (CWBA) into Trump’s Platinum Plan, which promises to increase access to capital in Black communities by almost $500 billion over the next four years.
Later in the show, Michael Che brought up Cube again during “Weekend Update,” or as Che joked, “Trump’s FUBU Platinum Plan for the Black community.”
“I love Ice Cube but you know how many jobs he had on top of negotiating for Black people?” asked Cube. “You know why Malcolm and Martin were such great leaders? Because they weren’t also working on Barbershop 4.”
Eve Leaving CBS ‘The Talk’ After Four Seasons!
Eve said today she is leaving The Talk as co-host at the end of December after four seasons on the popular CBS daytime talk show.
The news was not completely unexpected since she’d been co-hosting the show from her home in London. She told viewers that she is unable to travel due to the most recent COVID-19 related lockdown in the UK, and she is focused on “expanding her family.” CBS confirmed her exit. There’s no word on a replacement.
“It’s been a crazy year, obviously for all of us,” she said. “And I’m so grateful that I’m able to stay here in London and do the show, but I can’t see for me, the foreseeable future of traveling back at the moment, and have decided that at the end of December, this will probably be my last time on the show, in this capacity as a host.”
“We’re on another lockdown from Thursday, and that’s another reason, obviously staying home has been such a blessing because my husband and I got to know each other in a different way, a beautiful way,” she added. “So I want to be closer to him. I want to concentrate on expanding our family, being with my family.”
“I have had the most beautiful experience. I’ve grown as a woman, as a person. I’ve said it once, I’ll say it again, I never thought that being on a talk show would be this much of an opening of my spirit, soul, personality, everything. Sitting on stage with all you women has been the best thing ever. I truly love you,” she said.
Eve thanked her co-hosts Sharon Osbournce, Sheryl Underwood and Carrie Ann Inaba for their support.
“Real friends support each other. We all support you,” said Inaba.
“Eve, I love and respect you, always, always. And there is a big place here for you always in my heart. I love you…I just want you to be happy,” said Osbourne. And Underwood added, “Hurry up so I can be an Auntie.”
Eve has been with The Talk as co-host since November 2017 following Aisha Tyler’s departure. Eve’s exit follows that of Marie Osmond, who announced in September she was leaving the show after one season.

Jeannie Mai Shares Photo from the Hospital Following Emergency Surgery!
Jeannie Mai has made it out of emergency surgery after being diagnosed with epiglottitis.
Mai, 41, was forced to withdraw from Dancing with the Stars after being diagnosed with the potentially life-threatening condition.
"I would never imagine ever having to write this, but I made it safely out of my emergency surgery," Mai wrote on Instagram, sharing a photo of herself from her hospital bed.
"I will be forever grateful to Dr. Nasseri who identified my potentially life-threatening condition," she continued. "What simply started as a sore throat had unbeknownst to me become a dangerous infection that already closed at least 60% of my airway and resulted in a throat abscess that spread in a matter of 3 days."
While thankful that the condition was caught in time, Mai admitted that she is "devastated" she had to end her time on DWTS early.
"Although I am grateful to be recovering safely, I can't lie... I am devastated by the fact that my journey with #DWTS will end this way 🥺😞," she wrote. "Dancing on this show has been the most exhilarating adventure. I've gained both beautiful friendships and loving supporters."
During Monday night's episode of the ABC reality dance competition series, host Tyra Banks announced that Mai, 41, had recorded a video for DWTS audiences.
"I have some sad news. Jeannie Mai had emergency surgery last night and she's in recovery. She's doing well. However, she's had to withdraw from this competition. And she shared her emotional story from her hospital room. She did that for you. She really wants you to see that, and you're going to be able to see that a bit later. Now, due to Jeannie dropping out, we will not have a double elimination tonight. But one couple will go home," said Banks, 46.
Later in the evening, Mai opened up about the procedure in footage that was recorded in her hospital room, saying, "I found out that I have a throat abscess, where my tonsils and my throat had gotten so infected that it started permeating to the rest of the areas behind my neck and my ears that I had to get emergency surgery, which is why I'm here now."
After the surgery, Mai was told that "everything went great" while a medical professional also admitted that if she had "waited one more day, your throat would have closed up."
Though Mai wasn't able to say goodbye to the show live in the ballroom, the series aired a heartfelt and empowering video package in her honor.
"I'm just so thankful I had the experience on Dancing with the Stars. It was hands down one of the best journeys of my life, so thank you so much and I love you guys," said Mai.
In a shoutout to her DWTS partner Brandon Armstrong, Mai wrote in her Instagram caption, "I’m sorry you don't get to make fun of my moves anymore while I share my life gems on how to be a grown up🤭🤪 Love u so much lil bro, and will ALWAYS cherish the memories we made!!!"
Finally, Mai encouraged her fans to vote for the remaining teams still competing for the Mirrorball trophy.
"And more good news? My thumbs still work hunnay, so I can spread my 20 votes across these final 8 superstar teams!!! Please everyone, TONIGHT watch for your fave #DWTS couple killen it in the ballroom cuz #TeamDreamofJeannie, we gotta share our love and VOTE!!!"

Cardi B Calls Off Divorce From Offset!
Cardi B is no longer divorcing Offset, TMZ reports and Pitchfork can confirm via Fulton County, Georgia court documents. Cardi’s lawyers filed to dismiss the rapper’s complaint for divorce and other relief (November 2) in Fulton County Superior Court.
Cardi B opened a contested divorce case against Offset in September. The next month, however, she said on Instagram Live that she and Offset were back together.

Ex-Detroit Mayor's Sister Says Kwame Kilpatrick Granted "COVID-19 Compassionate Release" From Prison!
Could this be the week that ex-Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick finally leaves prison?
The rumor mill which first started spinning earlier in the summer returned over the weekend when State Rep. Karen Whitsett (D-Detroit) told FOX 2 on Sunday that the former mayor would be released from prison on Monday.
Family of Kilpatrick confirmed what Whitsett said late Sunday night when his sister tweeted out he would be released later this week.
Family of Kilpatrick says former mayor to be released over health concerns
A late-night tweet from the ex-mayor's sister says Kwame Kilpatrick was suffering health challenges and was expected to receive a grant for a COVID-19 compassionate release this week.
"Due to suffering severe health challenges we expect Kwame Kilpatrick to receive a grant for COVID-19 compassionate release from the FBOP this week. We are extremely grateful to God and we thank each and every one who has kept him and his family lifted in prayer," tweeted Ayanna Kilpatrick at 9:43 p.m.
She attributed the statement to The Family.
OX 2's legal analyst Charlie Langton said Kilpatrick's release could be contingent on one of two reasons, including a health-related release due to COVID-19. The other being a pardon from President Donald Trump.
Kilpatrick has served seven of his 28-year sentence following a high-profile conviction in 2013 on corruption and racketeering charges.
He served as mayor of Detroit from 2001 to 2008.
Despite his incarceration, Kilpatrick has maintained his innocence and has appealed his case multiple times.
Kilpatrick remains a popular figure among some crowds in Detroit and has inspired the FreeKwameProject.
Kilpatrick's status on the FBOC website says he's located in Oakdale, in Western Louisiana.
Danny Masterson's Rape Case Arraignment Delayed to 2021!
Former The Ranch actor Danny Masterson will not be arraigned on rape charges until after the new year, a Los Angeles judge ruled Monday. Masterson was charged with three counts of rape by force or fear, as prosecutors allege he raped three women between 2001 and 2003. His attorney, Tom Mesereau, has called the charges "politically motivated," a claim he made again in the latest hearing in the case.
The new arraignment was scheduled for Jan. 6, reports the New York Daily News. The 44-year-old former That '70s Show actor did not attend the hearing himself, and Mesereau said his client permitted him to make decisions on his behalf. Monday's hearing was initially supposed to be Masterson's arraignment. Still, the judge agreed to delay it for two months because of new evidence prosecutors have not shared with the defense yet.
At the beginning of the hearing, Mesereau asked the media to be removed. “We think this case has already had enough publicity sufficient to prejudice any jury pool that might have to be picked at some point," the attorney, who previously represented Bill Cosby and Michael Jackson, said. "There's been politics behind the case, in our opinion. We think it's a politically motivated case." Mesereau did not explain why he believed the case is political, but Los Angeles County District Attorney Jackie Lacey is running for re-election on Tuesday.
Masterson last appeared in court in September and did not enter a plea at that time. He only answered questions from the judge, who agreed to allow cameras into the courtroom. At that time, Mesereau said he was concerned this would sway potential jurors. In another hearing last month, a judge ruled that the case could continue after rejecting Masterson's attorneys' argument that the allegations were too old to be prosecuted. Masterson is not in custody, having posted a $3.3 million bail after his arrest in June. Masteron is "absolutely not guilty," Mesereau said when the charges were announced.
According to prosecutors, Masterson allegedly raped a 23-year-old woman in 2001, a 28-year-old woman in April 2003,and a 23-year-old woman in late 2003. The rapes allegedly happened at Masterson's house. If he is convicted, Masterson could face up to 45 years in prison.
The actor is best known for playing Steven Hyde on That '70s Show and Jameson "Rooster" Bennett on Netflix's The Ranch, with Ashton Kutcher co-starring in both shows. In March 2017, four women filed sexual assault allegations against him, which led to a police investigation. In December 2017, Netflix fired him from The Ranch, and the series continued without him.
