On the friendship he developed with Oprah during The Color Purple: “…Oprah and I have become dear friends. She’s a love. We were actually on the phone last night, talking about clothes… And then I made her laugh. Her laugh is a laugh that I think nobody knows about—it’s the Oprah-just-talking-to-a- friend laugh and not thinking that she’s Oprah.”
Discussing the importance of his costumes on the roles he plays: “I’m very clear about collaborating with my costume designers. I remember one scene with Rustin: He’s having dinner at his house, and he’s cooking Indian food. I asked for an outfit with a print, something from his travels. I’m like, ‘Can we find that?’ They found this really beautiful print shirt and even a necklace. I was like, ‘That feels like Bayard.”
Love him!

#HipHopNews: Lil Nas X Announces New Single And Video Dropping Next Week: "Y'all Ready For A Show?"
Lil Nas X announced the release of his next song and its accompanying video. It’s set to debut next week.
While details about the track remain sparse, the artist shared an illustration featuring four images of himself. Each of them corresponded to a line in a prayer, which fueled speculation about the forthcoming record’s theme. The text read, “In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, amen.”
It’s been nearly three years since Nas X’s MONTERO. It contained hit records like “MONTERO (Call Me By Your Name),” “INDUSTRY BABY” with Jack Harlow, and “THATS WHAT I WANT.” Doja Cat, Megan Thee Stallion, Miley Cyrus, and Elton John were also featured on the 15-track project.
Last week, the musician revealed that he was stepping into new roles. On Twitter, he revealed, “Wrote AND directed my own music video for the first time. Excited for y’all to see. It’s the best one yet!”
Further teasing his upcoming work, Nas X posted an Instagram photo where he was seen in a white gown while holding a machine gun. One fan commented, “Kicking, crying, and screaming ‘til it drops.” Coach, who the rapper recently partnered with, also wrote, “Let’s go.”
Nas X’s next project will mark his sophomore release. Since his debut album, the artist put out a slew of singles like 2022’s “STAR WALKIN’” and “Late To Da Party (F**K BET)” with YoungBoy Never Broke Again.
In November 2023, he also teased a song on Twitter. The caption read, “Y’all mind if I enter my Christian era?” In the accompanying snippet, Nas X crooned, “Free me from worry and wanting pity/ Free me from all this envy in me/ I don’t want these feelings/ I don’t want these feelings/ I call on angels.”
Katt Williams Says Harvey Weinstein ‘Offered to Suck My Penis in Front of All My People at My
Katt Williams has revealed Harvey Weinstein offered to perform oral sex on him during a meeting at the legendary comedian's agency.
Williams made the allegations during his appearance on the latest episode of Shannon Sharpe's Club Shay Shay. He made several eye-opening comments, but this may have been the most startling, given the now-imprisoned Weinstein's history with sexual assault.
The 52-year-old spoke about how a number of people have taken the shortcut to success by giving in to unsavory demands from those in power. Katt says he never did so, and gave an example where Weinstein allegedly tried to make an advance.
"They canceled me for talking about Harvey Weinstein before the thing came out,” Williams said. “But he offered to suck my penis in front of all my people at my agency. What am I supposed to do? He did all of that, I'm thinking I'm the only Black person on the script—I get there, it's three other Black guys on there. Whew—huh? I told him no, what y'all do?”
He added, “And this is why when I walk in a room, heads go down. Behind my back, I'm nothing, I'm just a regular old comedian that's bitter and jealous. But in my face? No, no, no—the king has walked in and they have to respect it, only because I've not taken the shortcuts, I've not been funded. They pay you to not talk about things they don't want you to talk about."
Harvey Weinstein was arrested and charged with rape in 2018 and was found guilty of three out of seven felonies in 2020. He received a 23-year prison sentence, which he is currently serving at the Mohawk Correctional Facility in New York. He is scheduled to be released in 2043 but will be taken back into custody and transferred to a California prison to serve a separate 16-year prison sentence.
Lizzo Garners Mixed Responses After Flaunting Slimmed-Down Look In Revealing Dress
Lizzo appeared to have lost her body weight. The "About Damn Time" hitmaker garnered mixed responses from social media users after flaunting her slimmed-down look in a revealing dress.
The 35-year-old songstress received various online responses via Instagram on Wednesday, January 3. In the comments section, one user showed their support for her and gushed, "So proud of you…let's keep everything because this make me so happy…the journey is long but never give up."
Similarly, a number of other users showered Lizzo with praise for her new appearance. While one of them told the "Good as Hell" singer that she is "absolutely stunning," another exclaimed that her body has always looked "amazing" before and after the weight loss.
Despite the heartwarming supportive messages, Lizzo was still bombarded with unpleasant comments from some critics. One in particular accused her of going under the knife to alter her body. Meanwhile, several others alleged that she has been consuming Ozempic. While one wrote, "That ozempic out here changing lives," another asked, "Is this where Ozempic comes in? Showing off weight loss and being proud of that? It's hard to understand."
The mixed responses came shortly after the "Truth Hurts" singer showcased her curves in a sizzling outfit. On Tuesday, January 2, she uploaded a series of photos featuring her look in a skin-tight long green dress that came with huge cut-outs as well as silver embellishments on both of its sides. The gown also had two black straps and a very low-cut design.
In one of the pictures, Lizzo was striking a pose in front of a huge mirror. She could be seen keeping her body warm by putting on an unzipped black insulated crop jacket with very long sleeves. She enhanced the look with a necklace, a pair of big hoop earrings, black sunglasses and matching leather shoes.
In addition, the "Rumors" songstress' tresses were styled into braids. She looked fresh in her makeup, including lip gloss, long lashes and black eyeliner. Along with the snaps, she wrote in the caption of the post, "Keep yo foot on they necks all year," adding a blue gem stone emoji.
Jeffrey Epstein list to be unsealed on rolling basis
The release of some of the more than 150 names mentioned in court documents from a civil case filed by one of Jeffrey Epstein’s victims was postponed.
A judge has delayed the unsealing of two of the Jane Does until the 22nd, but the rest of the names will be unsealed on a rolling basis starting Wednesday, an executive with the Southern District of New York confirmed to News Nation
The delay for some of the names comes after a judge granted a 30-day extension to a Jane Doe to consider her appeal to remain confidential.
Epstein’s former lawyer Alan Dershowitz: ‘I want everything out’
A judge ruled the names could be unsealed beginning Jan. 1. However, court was closed on that date because of the New Year’s holiday.
These documents come from a settled civil lawsuit Virginia Giuffre filed against British socialite Ghislaine Maxwell in 2015.
The Miami Herald has been fighting to unseal documents filed as part of the lawsuit since 2018. The legal battle escalated in December when U.S. District Judge Loretta Preska ordered the names could be unsealed beginning Jan. 1.
Preska ordered some names be redacted to protect the anonymity of minors who were victims of sex crimes.
Giuffre claimed Epstein and Maxwell pressured her as a teenager to engage in sexual relationships with powerful men, including Prince Andrew. Those men denied the allegations and Giuffre later settled a lawsuit against Prince Andrew out of court.
Jeffrey Epstein timeline: Sex trafficking, scandals, Ghislaine Maxwell
People named in the documents are unlikely to face prosecution if they haven’t already, criminal defense attorney Janet Johnson told NewsNation on Monday.
“These names were actually kept secret because the judge found that because they did not do anything wrong, there wasn’t any reason at that point to release them and embarrass them,” Johnson said.
Several “prominent” names are expected to be mentioned in court documents, according to an ABC News report. One of these names in the redacted filings is that of former President Bill Clinton. Clinton, identified as “Doe 36,” is mentioned in at least 50 filings, the news outlet said.
Allegations against Epstein first surfaced publicly in 2005.
He pleaded guilty to sex charges in Florida and served 13 months in jail. He spent much of that time in a work-release program as part of a deal critics called lenient. He ultimately was required to register as a sex offender.
Who has Jeffrey Epstein been linked to over the years?
Federal prosecutors in New York went on to revive the case against Epstein after a series of stories by the Miami Herald in 2018 brought renewed attention to the matter.
In 2019, New York prosecutors said they weren’t bound by the previous non-prosecution deal, and Epstein was again arrested. He killed himself in prison a month later.
Maxwell was arrested at a New Hampshire estate less than one year after Epstein’s death.
A jury convicted her in December 2021 of multiple charges including sex trafficking, conspiracy and transportation of a minor for illegal sexual activity. She is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence.
Las Vegas judge attacked in court during sentencing
A man attacked a Las Vegas judge in her courtroom Wednesday, forcing her to take cover and injuring a marshal in the process, video the 8 News Now Investigators obtained reveals.
Deobra Redden, 30, a three-time felon, was in Clark County District Court Judge Mary Kay Holthus’ courtroom for sentencing on a charge of attempted battery with substantial bodily harm, records said.
Around 11 a.m., Holthus was sitting behind the bench when Redden ran up to her, jumped over the bench and attacked her, video shared with the 8 News Now Investigators showed. Several other people then fought with Redden before throwing him to the ground. An alarm also sounded for several minutes alerting others to the incident.
The 8 News Now Investigators first published the video on 8newsnow.com.
Before the attack, Redden’s attorney asked Holthus to sentence his client to probation. Holthus then said, “I think it’s time he get a taste of something else.”
On April 23, Redden “[threatened] to bust the kneecaps” of another man, “resulting in substantial bodily harm,” documents said.
In May, a different judge ordered Redden to undergo a competency determination, records said. Redden was then committed to a state behavioral facility. A judge then found Redden competent in October.
Redden pleaded guilty in November. Judge Holthus issued a bench warrant for his arrest in December after he missed a court appearance.
Redden was booked into the Clark County jail on new charges of battery and battery on a protected person. One count of the battery-on-a-protected-person charge indicated the victim was “substantially harmed.” He was due in court on the new charges at 9 a.m. Thursday.
Attorney’s Office. She often hears domestic violence and sex assault cases.
Holthus hit her head, but was OK, sources said. A court spokesperson said Holthus’ injuries were “being monitored.” A marshal was taken to a hospital with a large gash to his forehead. He was listed in stable condition as of Wednesday afternoon, a spokesperson said.
“We commend the heroic acts of her staff, law enforcement, and all others who subdued the defendant,” the court spokesperson added. “The court remains committed to a safe and secure courthouse and courtrooms. We are reviewing all our protocols and will do whatever is necessary to protect the judiciary, the public and our employees.”
Redden was previously in front of Holthus on charges of malicious destruction of property. Records show he served prison time on a domestic battery charge for a year, starting in 2021. In that case, a different judge sentenced Redden to prison for a term of 12-30 months. A board granted Redden parole in 2022.
“Thank God the judge is okay,” Clark County District Attorney Steve Wolfson said in a statement. “Thank God for the heroic efforts of those who came to her aid, especially her marshal and her law clerk. Without them, the situation would have been much worse as this defendant exhibited extremely violent behavior and I’m confident there will be consequences.”
“Sending our sincerest well wishes to District Court Judge Mary Kay Holthus and the marshal injured in her courtroom today,” Democratic Nevada Attorney General Aaron Ford said in a statement. “Your dedication to justice and the court are truly commendable. We wish you both a swift recovery.”
Judge Mary Kay Holthus presides over the arraignment of Republican electors, accused in a fake elector scheme, as they appear remotely at the Regional Justice Center, on Monday, Dec. 18,
Redden’s attorney did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Social media reacts to Destiny’s Child reunion in newly surfaced photo
Destiny’s Child shook the internet with a recently unveiled photo featuring all five of its long-standing members.
LeToya Luckett posted the picture on her Instagram today (Jan. 3), bringing together LaTavia Roberson, Kelly Rowland, Michelle Williams and Beyoncé. Each of them wore outfits with silver accents, leading fans to speculate that the photo might have been taken during one of the “RENAISSANCE WORLD TOUR” concerts.
However, they were also spotted at the Los Angeles premiere of RENAISSANCE: A Film by Beyoncé on Nov. 25, 2023. While the five were never together in one photo, each graced the event throughout the night.
The concert documentary also captured a momentous backstage reunion in Washington, D.C., where the members hugged and embraced, marking their first group interaction in years. Beyoncé described it as “like a new birth for us, and a lot of healing.”
In the comment section of Luckett’s post, Bun B wrote, “To see y’all together that night was the biggest ever.” Another fan shared, “Can we get a song? Or that’s asking for too much?”
Formed in Houston, Texas in 1990 as Girls Tyme, the group rose to fame as Destiny’s Child in 1997. That following year, they put out their self-titled debut album. By 1999, songs like “Say My Name” and “Jumpin’, Jumpin’” had already risen to mainstream success.
Roberson and Luckett left in the early 2000s, and Destiny’s Child transitioned into a trio including Beyoncé, Rowland and Williams. Despite no confirmation of future reunions, Mathew Knowles previously hinted at “one last album.”
In an October 2023 interview with The Messenger, Rowland indicated that the possibility of a group project hasn’t been ruled out but remains uncertain. “Bey wrapping up RENAISSANCE and getting ready for her movie, Michelle in the thick of her solo projects that she’s doing, and me in my solo space and all the things that I’m doing, that’s where my head is.”
She continued, “That’s where my heart is. That’s what I’m most excited about, with all due respect to Destiny’s Child. And should there be a space for that, we’ll see what happens. But as for right now, I’m so excited as to what I’m doing.”

The company also informed fans who had purchased a VIP subscription that they’d need to manually cancel it.
Rihanna & A$AP Rocky Catch a Flight Out of Aspen After Ringing In 2024 on Family Vacation
Rihanna and A$AP Rocky are heading home after ringing in 2024 in Aspen, Colorado.
On Wednesday (January 3), the musical couple was spotted catching a flight after their family vacation, which also featured a meet-up with Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Kyle Richards and her family.
The “Diamonds” diva was dressed for comfort in a gray sweatsuit and a green beanie, but she added a chic touch with a long coat featuring a cheetah print. She finished off her outfit with white boots.
A$AP opted for a gray puffer jacket, which he wore with a pair of black pants.
Rihanna and A$AP were spotted on a shopping trip in Aspen last week with their sons RZA, 19 months, and Riot, 3 months, in tow. It was during that shopping trip that Rihanna, a die-hard Bravo fan, met Kyle and posed for pics with her and her daughters.
We later learned that Rihanna left the store with a very generous gift from Kyle.
We hope that she, A$AP and their sons had a wonderful vacation!
If you missed it, Rihanna recently revealed how her relationship with A$AP has changed since they’ve become parents.
T.I. and Tiny Sued For Allegations of Sexual Assault in Graphic Lawsuit.
T.I. and his wife Tiny are being accused of drugging and sexually assaulting a woman they allegedly lured into a Los Angeles hotel room in 2005.
In the complaint filed Jan. 2 in Los Angeles, and first reported by Rolling Stone, a Jane Doe accuser claims she met the reality TV stars, T.I. (Clifford Harris) and Tiny (Tameka Harris), at a nightclub where Tiny fed her a spiked drink. She alleges they then brought her back to their hotel where they sexually assaulted her.
The suit describes the plaintiff as being in her early twenties when the assault happened and asserts she was serving in the U.S. Air Force at the time. After allegedly being introduced to the couple by an associate named “Caviar,” whom she had met at the house of the rapper Coolio the night before the assault, the plaintiff says she was separated from her group and ended up alone with T.I., Tiny and two other women who were ultimately asked to leave.
While the alleged incident occurred almost 18 years ago, the timeframe to refile the lawsuit was recently reopened thanks to California’s Sexual Abuse and Cover Up Accountability Act. The couple has denied these claims in a statement issued to the press though representatives for the Harrises did not immediately return Variety‘s requests for comment.
The lawsuit includes a graphic and detailed account of the abuse that purportedly occurred that night. As the plaintiff’s attorney recalls, T.I. allegedly forced Jane Doe to watch pornographic movies and then “demanded she begin rubbing oil on his back and naked body,” while Tiny “proceeded to get on plaintiff’s back, while she was still naked, and grind back and forth” on her back. Drugged and pinned down to the bed by Tiny, the accuser claims that T.I. “proceeded to slide his toes into plaintiff’s vagina.”
“Plaintiff grew increasingly sicker and felt extremely ill by the assault and battery she was experiencing,” the attorneys write. She claims T.I. approached her and asked, “Are you alright? Looks like you in last place,” after she went to the bathroom to vomit. The altercation ended with the accuser being escorted by a security guard out of the hotel room the next morning while in “serious pain.”
This is just one of the many sexual assault and abuse lawsuits that have been flooding the music industry. Most recently, Latin singer Gloria Trevi accused her former producer and manager of physical and sexual abuse (other women have even accused Trevi of grooming them to experience similar abuse), and Sean “Diddy” Combs was accused of similar crimes by his former artist Cassie.
Pat McAfee Apologizes After Aaron Rodgers Accused Jimmy Kimmel of Having Epstein.ESPN sports analyst Pat McAfee apologized Wednesday for quarterback Aaron Rodgers’ prior comments on his show suggesting that comedian Jimmy Kimmel had ties to Jeffrey Epstein.
On Tuesday’s episode of “The Pat McAfee Show,” Rodgers discussed the list of Epstein’s associates that is set to be publicly unsealed by a federal judge later this month. He said that, “There’s a lot of people, including Jimmy Kimmel, really hoping that doesn’t come out” and that, “If that lists comes out, I definitely will be popping some sort of bottle.”
After the episode aired on Tuesday, Kimmel called out Rodgers on X/Twitter and threatened legal action: “Dear Asshole: for the record, I’ve not met, flown with, visited, or had any contact whatsoever with Epstein, nor will you find my name on any ‘list’ other than the clearly-phony nonsense that soft-brained wackos like yourself can’t seem to distinguish from reality. Your reckless words put my family in danger. Keep it up and we will debate the facts further in court.”
Host McAfee addressed the Rodgers-Kimmel feud Tuesday with an apology, saying that Rodgers was “just trying to talk shit.”
“I can see exactly why Jimmy Kimmel felt the way he felt, especially with his position. But I think Aaron was just trying to talk shit. But did it go too far? Jimmy Kimmel certainly said that was the case,” McAfee said. “We obviously don’t like the fact that we’re associated with anything negative ever. We like our show to be an uplifting one, a happy one, a fun one. But it’s because we talk shit and try to make light of everything. Some things obviously people get very pissed off about, especially when they’re that serious allegations, so we apologize for being a part of it.”
McAfee added, “Can’t wait to hear what Aaron has to say about it. Hopefully those two will just be able to settle this. Not court-wise, but be able to chitchat, move along.”
Rodgers and Kimmel have traded jabs at each other previously. After Rodgers discussed Epstein and UFOs on an appearance on McAfee’s show last year, Kimmel mocked the New York Jets quarterback on his late-night show, saying “it might be time to revisit the concussion protocol, Aaron.” He has called Rodgers a “tin-foil hatter” and joked about his skepticism to the COVID vaccine.
“The only thing worse than not getting vaccinated when you’re in close proximity with other people is letting them think you’re vaccinated when you’re not,” Kimmel said in 2021 after Rodgers tested positive for COVID despite saying he was “immunized.” “It’s basically the COVID equivalent of ‘The condom fell off.’”
Funky Dineva Announces ‘Tea-G-I-F’ Exit Due to Financial Conflicts.
*YouTube personality Funky Dineva is speaking out about his future with Fox Soul’s “Tea-G-I-F.”
The influencer revealed recently that he’s exciting the pop culture talk show due to financial conflicts. His replacement has not yet been named, and co-hosts Claudia Jordan and Al Reynolds will remain on the show.
As Distractify reports, a day after Funky Dineva, Al, and Claudia shared their New Year resolutions last month, Funky announced he was exiting the show.
“When Tea-Gif resumes, I, Funky Dineva Ross, will not be there,” he said on his popular YouTube channel.

According to Funky, he was under a six-month contract with the network, and his pay dropped once the show went from airing two nights to five days a week. He was essentially getting paid the same amount to do more work. So rather than be exploited, he walked away from “Tea-G-I-F.”
In his YouTube post, Funky said there is no “love lost” between Fox Soul and his former co-hosts.
“I want you guys to continue, soulmates, supporting the show,” Funky said. “I don’t know who will be appearing in my place. I don’t know anything.”
“I definitely wish the show the best,” he added. “Y’all continue to support whomever it is they choose to fill the seat with, and hopefully, those guys go on to make some magic.”
The Instagram account @TGIFANS shared the video of Funky’s shocking departure announcement. In the comments, Al Reynolds wrote, “I am devastated. Funky will be greatly missed. He taught me sooo much!”
Another IG user added, “The show won’t be the same 😞. But I’ll still watch because I do still enjoy Claudia and Al.”
A third commented, “Smh Fox Soul really fumbled this one.”
