#RHOA: Kenya Moore Speaks about Joining a Dating App & If She’d Marry Again
Kenya Moore is back for Season 15 of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta.”
“Extra’s” Melvin Robert spoke to Moore, who spilled all the tea!
Moore is “11 seasons in” and praying a lot to deal with all the drama. When asked what she says when she prays, she answered, “Please protect me, please give me patience, please don't let me snatch a b*tch.”
The now-single Kenya is ready to dip her toes back in the dating pool, so what’s she looking for in a man?
She answered, “Someone who is handsome. Kind is number one. Funny, easygoing… I just want a good person.”
Moore has even joined a dating app. Her dating profile highlights her love of laughter, fun, and not taking herself too seriously. She added, “I’m at a point where I’m losing my inhibitions. I’m becoming more free.”
Kenya said she is “absolutely” open to getting married again, saying, “I love the institution of marriage.”
While she wants a partner who is there for her, Kenya isn’t taking any advice from her “RHOA” castmates. She pointed out, “Most of their relationships are in shambles so I think I’m gonna stick it out on my own.”
Moore was previously married to Marc Daly for two years, but they split in 2019.
“The Real Housewives of Atlanta” documented their divorce, which she admitted was “really painful.” She commented, “I think the audience walked with me during my journey where they saw that I really wanted a family. Holding out for Mr. Right, taking well into my 40s to find the love of my life, and then to have it fall apart before everyone’s eyes.”
Despite the divorce, Moore is “thriving.” She noted, “I have a child from that relationship, and I feel like that is where God wanted me to be.”
Kenya and Marc share daughter Brooklyn, 4, who is “doing amazing.”
Kenya explained, “She doesn’t know any different… She’s 4, and that’s all she knows is we have not been together since she’s been, you know, a person who can speak. She loves her dad, and she loves her mommy, and that’s all she knows.”
Brooklyn has even been featured in a confessional interview that Kenya’s done on the show.
Of working with Brooklyn, Kenya said, “It’s fun! She was all smiles. She loves being with Mommy at any capacity. I take her with me, no matter where I go, most of the time. She loves just being with her mom and emulating the things that I do, and hopefully one of the things she picks up is being a boss baby. Hopefully, I can show her what it’s like to be a CEO and a single mom working and that experience rubs off on her.”
While Kenya and Marc are keeping it amicable for their daughter, she regrets not getting a prenup!
Kenya commented, “I fight girls all day long on TV, but in my romantic life, I don’t like to fight… I think communication is key, but when you have a breakdown in communication, you can lean on the legal documents. That’s something that I always recommend, and I didn’t take my own advice.”
On this season of “RHOA,” Kenya’s friend Drew is also going through a divorce. As for how Drew is doing, Kenya dished, “She’s gonna be okay. She’s got me as a friend, and I can tell her all about what’s to come and I can be that shoulder she can cry on, and she can really just be honest with me. And part of that is the healing process, being able to just let everything go out and go through the steps of those feelings that you’re gonna feel.”
Kenya admitted that the transition will be “very hard,” but it’s necessary to get through all the emotions to “get to the other side.”

It took The Super Mario Bros. Movie only 26 days to cross $1 billion, and it will once again win the weekend box office with ease. Alongside being the 10th animated film to cross $1 billion, it's also the 10th biggest animated film of all time as it has now passed Despicable Me 2 and Minions: The Rise of Gru.
At the domestic weekend box office, The Super Mario Bros. Movie brought in another $40 million on its way to a North American total of $490 million. Internationally, the film brought in $68.31 million and sits at $532.45 million overseas.

Taye Diggs Starring In BET+ Series ‘Love & Murder: Atlanta Playboy’
Taye Diggs has scored his first show after All American. Next, he’ll be linking up with Mona Scott-Young for a new BET+ show, Love & Murder: Atlanta Playboy.
Eric Tomosunas of Swirl Films is co-producing with Scott-Young. Courtney Miller will direct, and Gregory Anderson is writing the script based on the Rod Stodghill crime novel, Redbone: Money, Malice and Murder in Atlanta.
Diggs is playing Lance, an Atlanta businessman credited with modernizing the city’s 9-1-1 system. But he’s also a womanizer and that may be the reason why he ends up murdered in his own home. The series will look at Lance’s life from the varying perspectives of his friends, competitors, detractors and admirers.
“I am so excited to collaborate with Swirl Films on our first project, Love & Murder: Atlanta Playboy,” Scott-Young said in a press release. “The film series is a captivating true-life crime story that captures the unique culture of Atlanta. BET has always provided a platform for stories that are authentic and relatable and we are proud to be partnered with them on this project.”
Diggs spent five seasons playing a high school football coach on All American. His character [SPOILER ALERT!] Billy Baker, was killed off in February. Diggs not only supported the move, he believed that the character’s arc had come to an end. He’s grateful for his time on the series, which began on the CW but drew a wider audience when past seasons were made available on Netflix.
“This show changed my life in so many ways,” Diggs told Entertainment Weekly earlier this year. “Career-wise, I feel like I’ve done some good work. I’ve never felt as exposed; I would be at the airport and have young Asian kids, older white men, and housewives recognize me. The cross-section of the demographic that this show plays to just blew my mind. I love the fact that we started out as the little show that could, and thanks to the fans and everything Netflix did, people found it. It’s been a great experience.”
Chloe Bailey And Quavo Fuel Romance Rumors With Lunch Date
Chloe Bailey and Quavo continue to add fuels to their dating rumors with their latest sighting. They two musicians, who co-star in new film "Praise This", have been spotted grabbing lunch together amid persistent romance rumors.
A photo circulated over the weekend showing the 24-year-old singer/actress and the 32-year-old rapper sitting across from each other while enjoying a meal. The picture was reportedly taken on Friday, April 28, but it's not clear where it was.
While the pair did not show any PDA in the image, many fans took it as a sign that they are more than friends. "They can do each other's retwist," one fan commented on the photo. Another weighed in, "The movie Praise This must've brought some type of chemistry idk chile lawd have mercy."
Chloe and Quavo were first rumored to be romantically linked to each other in August 2022 after they posted separate images enjoying a beachside vacation. Internet sleuths quickly put the pieces together and speculated that they were vacationing together.
In March, Chloe coyly addressed the dating rumors during an interview with Latto (formerly Mulatto). "The tea was that you was talking to Quavo," the raptress started the discussion about the dating rumors. "Uh oh, well, we doin' a movie together," the "Have Mercy" songstress said, noting that they worked on a film titled "Praise This".
"I don't know where that came from," Chloe tried to dodge it, before Latto reminded her, "Y'all working." Chloe acknowledged this, saying, "Yes. Working."
Chloe then sang praise for Quavo. "He's a really nice guy," she said, before she and Latto gushed over the "Congratulations" emcee's hair. "I mean, he got dreads," Latto noted, and Chloe agreed, "Yeah, I like his locs. I like his locs."
Prior to the lunch date, Chloe and Quavo were also seen partying together. In a clip which surfaced online on Sunday, April 23, the one half of the musical duo Chloe x Halle was seen dancing to the music with the former Migos star standing by her side. The outing reportedly took place after Chloe's concert in Atlanta.
Keke Palmer Posed With Newborn Son Leodis At Her First Red Carpet Since Becoming A Mother
Keke Palmer is back at work after becoming a mother, and she’s bringing her baby boy and her man along for the ride.
Over the weekend, Palmer attended a screening of her new short film, Big Boss, in Atlanta, walking the red carpet with her son, Leodis, whom she shares with fitness instructor Darius Jackson. Keke was rocking her post-baby bawwwdy in a form-fitting cheetah print body suit and black mules, wearing her hair slicked into a long ponytail. Her son wore an absolutely adorable black jumpsuit personalized with his name along with a pair of white sneakers.
For her first red carpet appearance since becoming a mother back in February, the actress posed for some solo shots before taking a few pictures with her baby boy and her boyfriend.
In the shots, you can see just how much Palmer wants to keep holding Leo, but Jackson seems to reassure her that he’s taking good care of him while she does her thing in front of the cameras.
Ahead of making her red carpet return, the new mother opened up to PEOPLE about post-baby bodies, sharing some words of wisdom for new moms who are coping with the pressure to “bounce back” after giving birth.
“There’s always this thing of, ‘How’d they do it?’ And I think for me, the main thing I would say to any new mom is do what you can when you can, whatever it is that makes you feel good,” Palmer told the publication.”If it’s important to you, then hell yeah put in the work miss girl. Get you whatever diet you want to do or whatever workout regimen that works for you. And if that’s not what you’re worried about, then don’t worry about it.”
Keke went on to add that the most important thing is that each individual does what they deem necessary to “feel good.”
Palmer explained that, in her experience, in the first couple of weeks of motherhood, “I didn’t want to do nothing. I didn’t want to talk to nobody. Then I was like, ‘I need to talk to somebody. I need to do something.’ Then I was like, ‘Now I want to get active.’ It changes, so go at your own pace.”
She’s also urging new moms to “keep it real” and not “get caught in the hype of it all.”
“Anytime you see a celebrity doing a snap back or whatever like that, it’s part of the damn gig,” she explains. “A part of our jobs is to look good and to look the part. So don’t think it’s this thing where it’s like, ‘We doing it because we got it like that.’ No, the job is on the line. If we want the checks to get signed, we got to be what we got to be.”
Speaking of post-baby baaaaawdies, Darius recently gave Keke a shoutout and noted that their baby boy “transformed” Keke’s petite frame for the better.
Social media slam Brian McKnight for not acknowledging his kids from previous marriage
American singer Brian McKnight was slammed online after he did not acknowledge his kids from his previous marriage to Julie McKnight. On April 30, 2023, Instagram page The Shade Room shared a series of screenshots where several Internet users slammed the 53-year-old artist for only addressing and celebrating his stepchildren on his social media handles.
In his Instagram bio, McKnight called himself a father of "Julia, Jack, Kekoa Matteo, and Brian Kainoa Makoa," and not his other three kids - Brian Jr., Niko, and Brianna McKnight. Moreover, in the past few years, most of McKnight's posts have been about celebrating the milestones of his stepkids, whom he shares with his now-wife, Leilani Malia Mendoza.
All this prompted the singer to trend on social media, with users slamming him. One of them mockingly wondered whether or not the thought of his other three kids from McKnight's previous marriages even crosses his mind.
After Brian McKnight's social media posts and Instagram bio went viral, Twitteratis were furious and disappointed. Several users slammed the singer for abandoning his "black kids" for his stepchildren and called him out for neglecting his paternal duties.
Others questioned his internet captions, with one of them suggesting that his social media posts were purposely throwing shade at his ex-wife and kids.

Snoop Dogg, Chris Stapleton roll up for Willie Nelson's 90th birthday concert celebration
LOS ANGELES – Willie Nelson's Hollywood Bowl 90th birthday celebration is headed for the concert history books.
"Long Story Short: Willie Nelson 90," the power-packed two-night event, kicked off Saturday (Nelson's birthday) after blowing up to epic proportions with late-breaking additions to the bill.
"This is one of those weekends that people are going to be talking about forever," musician Lyle Lovett told USA TODAY from the backstage red carpet. "I just said 'yes' immediately. I was honored to be asked."
The lineup of performers – from Snoop Dogg to Chris Stapleton, The Chicks to Tom Jones – just "shows the power of Willie Nelson," Lovett said. "There's nobody like him. Everyone here has Willie Nelson in common, we're all automatically friends because of him. The world needs that and the world needs Willie."
Nelson let his music superstars carry the concert's first three hours. Kris Kristofferson joined Rosanne Cash to sing his song "Loving Her Was Easier (Than Anything I'll Ever Do Again)." Cash poignantly allowed the 86-year-old Kristofferson to sing the final words solo. As he walked off the stage with Cash, an emotional Kristofferson saluted the audience, who gave a standing ovation.
Helen Mirren introduced Jones, a fellow Brit, who marveled at Nelson's vitality. "I'm 83, I have something to look forward to," said Jones, who hits that age in June, before breaking into "Opportunity to Cry."
Bob Weir sang "Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain" and The Chicks performed a rowdy version of "Bloody Mary Morning." Jennifer Garner introduced Miranda Lambert, who wore a red-and-black jumpsuit with audacious red fringe to perform "Mamas Don’t Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys."
Stapleton performed soulful versions of "Last Thing I Needed First Thing This Morning" and "Always on My Mind."
Before singing his song "Willie Got Me Stoned," Jack Johnson alluded to a backstage party that might have been keeping Nelson off the concert stage.
"It's a party. We're having a good time back there," Johnson said.
A beaming Nelson finally strode onstage more than three hours into the concert, taking a seat to join Neil Young for "Are There Any More Real Cowboys?"
"I want to thank all the artists for helping to celebrate whatever we're celebrating," Nelson joked after the song ended.
He sang two songs with country music legend George Strait – "Sing One With Willie" and "Pancho and Lefty" – before bringing his friend Snoop Dogg to the stage.
"Hey, Snoop, come on out here and help me roll one up," Nelson said as the rapper, wielding a gold microphone, took a seat beside him to sing, "Roll Me Up and Smoke Me When I Die." Snoop Dogg suggested the song be performed "in the key of smoke."
After playing a joyful version of his classic "On the Road Again," Nelson started serenading himself with "Happy Birthday to Me" from the stage.
The celebrant continued the humor with his final song, Mac Davis’ classic, "It's Hard to Be Humble" with the lyrics, "I can't wait to look in the mirror, 'cause I get better looking each day."
Nelson still had the energy to forcefully throw his cowboy hat into the crowd during the final standing ovation. "We’ll see you tomorrow night," he said.
Other performers at the weekend birthday concerts include Beck, Billy Strings, Booker T. Jones, Buddy Cannon, Charley Crockett, Daniel Lanois, Dave Matthews, Dwight Yoakam, Edie Brickell, Emmylou Harris, Gary Clark Jr., Leon Bridges, Lily Meola, Lukas Nelson, Margo Price, Norah Jones, Orville Peck, Particle Kid, Rodney Crowell, Sheryl Crow, Stephen Stills, Sturgill Simpson, The Avett Brothers, The Lumineers, Tyler Childers and Ziggy Marley.
"We put a thoughtful list together of Willie's close friends and the family of musicians that Willie has either recorded or toured with," executive producer Keith Wortman said. "And that just happens to be a very large list."
Adele Enjoys a Date Night with Rich Paul at Los Angeles Lakers Playoff Game
Adele and Rich Paul had another courtside date night with one of their favorite basketball teams!
The couple was photographed having a great time as they sat side by side in the front row of the Los Angeles Lakers 2023 NBA Playoffs game against the Memphis Grizzlies on Friday night.
The "Easy on Me" singer, 34, looked comfortable in a matching gray sweatshirt and sweatpants by Klutch Athletics, a brand co-created by Paul, while her beau, 41, wore a full-body white and green tracksuit with patterns on it.
The two are known to be avid NBA fans, having been on multiple dates courtside of several games since they began dating in 2021. The duo made their first public appearance together during an NBA Finals game between the Milwaukee Bucks and Phoenix Suns, and have been more recently spotted at L.A. Lakers games.
The Grammy-award winner admitted in a live stream event for the premiere of her "I Drink Wine" music video in October that there were several things that made her happy, including online shopping and her dogs, as well as her boyfriend and basketball.
"And then making special time for Rich," Adele said. "The [NBA] season just started, and I'm actually a really big basketball fan, thank God."
The pair recently made a rare public appearance together at the 2023 Grammy Awards, where the singer won best pop solo performance for "Easy on Me." Though they didn't walk the red carpet together, they did pose for a handful of photos inside the event.
Adele briefly opened up about her relationship with Paul in her cover story for ELLE's September issue, saying, "I've never been in love like this. I'm obsessed with him."
When asked by ELLE if she would ever want to remarry, after divorcing ex Simon Konecki in 2019 — with whom she shares son Angelo — the star replied, "Yes, absolutely."
"I definitely want more kids," Adele explained. "I'm a homemaker and I'm a matriarch, and a stable life helps me with my music."
Cher calls off wedding plan amid family concerns over Edwards
Cher has decided to call off her wedding plans with Alexander 'AE' Edwards amid concerns from her family that the producer has set sights on her fortune.
Her family has warned the famous singer that Edwards has been using her in order advance his career and enjoy financial gains.
"For a while, Cher followed this guy around like a lovesick puppy, but the blinders seem to be coming off," an insider told RadarOnline.com.
Meanwhile, another source told the aforementioned publication that "Cher's starting to see Alexander in a different light."
RadarOnline.com has also reported that Cher has not broken up with Edwards despite being caught on camera without the ring she was given by the producer.
"Cher has always been so careful about her money, but she was throwing it at this guy and funding his over-the-top lifestyle!" another source added.
Cher has reportedly been frustrated by Edwards' behaviour, with an insider stressing that "AE's always inviting his friends over for parties - and he goes missing and doesn't answer his phone".
Back in February, Cher discussed, on The Kelly Clarkson Show, her relationship with a man 40 years younger than her.
"Well, on paper it's kind of ridiculous," Cher admitted
"But in real life we get along great. He's fabulous and I don't give men qualities that they don't deserve.
"He's very smart, he's very talented and he's really funny so - and I think he's quite handsome.
"If I hadn't met younger men in my life, I would have never had a date, because older men just didn't like me all that much, do you know what I mean?'
#OOOPS! NFL Draft Day Reporter Says Jalen Carter Has A “Big D**k”
The NFL draft came and went, and all the requisite attention on the best college players in the country followed. For one reporter, the defensive prowess of former Georgia Bulldog and newly drafted Philadelphia Eagles player Jalen Carter wasn’t the only thing capturing her attention.
Apparently, he was giving her sweatpants print energy.
While describing Carter’s athletic attributes on air for “NFL Now,” reporter Bridget Condon went below the belt and quickly perused what she may have been thinking.
“One of the names we are hearing is Jalen Carter, the D-tackle from Georgia who has just won a national championship with the [University of Georgia] Bulldogs.”
Then it got weird.
“Big d**k, big guy; 6-3, 315 pounds, he can make an immediate impact, a day one starter because of his ability to create pressure.”
Can you say awkward?
Tampa Bay Buccaneer’s Linebacker Shaquil Barrett’s 2YO Daughter Drowns In Family Pool
The two-year-old daughter of NFL player Shaquil Barrett has passed away after drowning in the family pool.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers confirmed the news of the toddler’s death on Sunday in a statement expressing their condolences: “Today’s tragic news is heartbreaking for all members of the Buccaneers family.”
“Our thoughts and prayers are with Shaq, Jordanna, and the entire Barrett family during this unimaginably difficult time. While no words can provide true comfort at a time such as this, we offer our support and love as they begin to process this very profound loss of their beloved Arrayah.”
Shaq’s daughter, Arrayah, was transported to a hospital Sunday morning after EMS responded to the location for a child who had fallen into the water. Despite life-saving measures, she was pronounced dead a short time later, TMZ reported.
Authorities don’t believe foul play was involved but are investigating the incident.
Arrayah had just celebrated her second birthday on April 19. “Happy 2nd bday to my cutie girl. So sweet and cute. You made our family complete. I love you, baby girl,” Shaq wrote.
He and his wife, Jordanna, are raising three other children, ages 11, 9, and 8.
Investors Sue adidas Over Broken Partnership With Ye Kanye West Footwear
It appears that adidas (XETRA:ADS.DE +0.83%) is not yet out of the dark over its partnership with the artist formerly known as Ye. According to multiple news outlets, investors are suing the German footwear company, claiming that the firm knew of Ye’s problematic behavior for years before it finally decided to end the partnership.
The BBC reported that investors are alleging that adidas failed to take precautionary measures to limit their financial losses, knowing of Ye’s behaviors. The sportswear giant recently ended its partnership late last year following antisemitic comments. In the most recent lawsuit, investors are claimed that the lawsuit filed in federal court last week in Oregon alleges that adidas senior executives have known as early as 2018 that taking on Ye would be ar isk.
BOF reports that in 2018, adidas ignored serious issues regarding partnering with Ye, putting shareholders at risk. The annual report was only “generally alluding” to the risks “rather than stating that the company had actually considered ending the partnership as a result of West’s personal behavior.” In the subsequent years after, the company chose not to disclose the anit-Semetic comments he made to the adidas staff. The Wall Street Journal recently published details regarding an alleged meeting in 2018 when adidas met to discuss Ye. They spoke about how to mitigate risks of staff interacting with Ye and even possibly cutting ties with the multihyphenate artist. Adidas has not yet responded to these claims.
