#RHOA: Porsha Williams Serves Emergency Order to Film 'RHOA' In Marital Home
Porsha Williams facing drama with estranged husband Simon Guobadia pre-filming RHOA
Simon preventing filming at his house, sending cease and desist letter, causing conflict.
Porsha fights back with emergency order to film at the house, seeking compromise amidst marriage turmoil.
Fans of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, and of Porsha Williams in particular, have been eagerly anticipating her return to the show. Porsha, always known for her quick humor, witty one-liners, and, at times, outrageous shade, is guaranteed to bring the entertainment on the reality series' 16th season. However, a lot of the drama for Porsha seems to be happening before she has even started filming.

Followers of the RHOA star are keen to know what’s been happening within her marriage and current estrangement from her husband. But it seems that Simon is not as keen on bringing his personal life into the spotlight. Quite a contrast from when Porsha was last on the show and she and Simon appeared together a lot. And before that, of course, he appeared on screen with his ex-wife Falynn Pina. So why the change?

As the fallout from Porsha and Simon’s marriage becomes more toxic, especially on social media, many think that Simon is doing everything he can to make things difficult for Porsha now that she is returning to the limelight. One way he would appear to be doing this is by sending a cease and desist letter to production advising them that they could not film the show at his house and threatening legal action if they failed to comply.


#MusicNews: Carl Thomas & Dave Hollister Recruit Syleena Johnson To Join R&B Supergroup The Chi

The Chi lives! No, we’re not referring to Lena Waithe’s hit drama The Chi currently in its sixth season on Showtime. We’re talking about the R&B supergroup announced in 2021 by Chicago-bred singers Carl Thomas, Dave Hollister and Donell Jones. We expected big things from The Chi over the past three years, but we feared that they might have gone the way of mask mandates once the pandemic ended. However, the group just had to regroup and make some adjustments. Now they’ve resurfaced, and Donell is out and Chi-town soul sista Syleena Johnson is in as the newest member of The Chi.

Thomas, Hollister and Johnson made headlines over the weekend when they made their official debut as the remixed supergroup at the taping of this year’s Black Music Honors in Atlanta. The trio performed and even wore coordinating outfits to let folks know that they’re standing on R&B business.

Syleena broke the news to the general public on social media. “Welp, the cat is out the bag in a good way,” she captioned a photo of her standing in between Carl and Dave on Instagram and Facebook. “I am officially a part of an R&B trio that is SURE to shake the table in R&B music‼️ It’s an honor to be able to share the stage with these two vocal Giants‼️ So THIS is our next Chapter and we couldn’t be more ready.”

We couldn’t be more ready for this updated version of The Chi either. We’re excited to hear what Syleena, Dave and Carl sound like together, and we’ll soon get the chance when the 2024 Black Music Honors airs during Black Music Month. The special will premiere on Saturday, June 1st on the Stellar Network before airing on Bounce TV on Juneteenth, Wednesday, June 19th and going into national broadcast syndication throughout the month of June.

The Chi hasn’t indicated why Donell Jones departed or when they’ll be dropping any music, but we hope that it’s all love between the artists and have our fingers crossed that with this announcement and performance, some new tunes will follow.


#HipHopNews: Common Salutes Kanye West & J Dilla On Anniversary Of 'Life-Changing' Album 'Be'
Common has given props to Kanye West and J Dilla on the anniversary of his “life-changing” album Be. The Chicago rapper took to Instagram on Sunday (May 26) to reflect on his sixth LP, which arrived to critical acclaim on May 24, 2005.
In his post, Common saluted both Ye and Jay Dee who between them produced almost the entirety of the album. The former also featured on several songs including “They Say,” “Go!” and “The Corner.”

“I was reminded that yesterday was the 19th anniversary for Be. How grateful I am to YE and J Dilla and all the artists and musicians who created on that album,” he wrote.
“Be changed my life and it’s amazing how many people come to me young and old (well older ha) who tell me they were inspired by that album. Give Thanks To The MOST HIGH.”

This isn’t the first time that Common has reflected on his relationship with Kanye West and J Dilla in recent months.
Earlier this year, the veteran MC reminisced about the pair “bonding” at his house before Dilla’s tragic death in 2006.
“I remember Kanye coming over to the crib where Dilla and I stayed,” Common told Hot 97, referencing the Los Angeles home he shared with the Slum Village member. “Kanye would sample Dilla’s drums off his beat tapes.

“Ye came over, it was Mother’s Day. We were going to a Mother’s Day brunch with Ye and his mother and my mother and then Dilla was at the crib. Ye was talking to him and they was just bonding, and then Dilla gave Ye these drums on a record.”
Common then remembered Kanye’s reaction to Dilla gifting him a beat tape: “I promise you, Ye was like, it was the golden chalice. We went to the studio later that day and Ye was telling Gee [Roberson], ‘Yo, Dilla gave me these drums!’ I forgot what song it ended up being but as soon as we got there, he was working on those songs.”

He added: “Dilla had a lot of love for Ye. And Ye had love for Dilla. It was great to see somebody who was as great as Ye just be like, ‘Dilla gave me these joints!’”

Gayle King shoots her shot with Lenny Kravitz: 'Asking for a friend — Is there love in your life?'

Everyone's wondering if Lenny Kravitz is single, and Gayle King is no exception. The CBS Mornings cohost dug into the singer's love life in an interview on Thursday.
"Asking for a friend: Is there love in your life now?" King queried. "Do you have a significant other in your life, and can I beat her ass if she is? Oops, did I say that out loud? And I'm non-violent, Lenny Kravitz! But do you have a partner, do you have a love in your [life]?"

Kravitz, 59, had a diplomatic response: "Right now, I'm just open.
"Are you even looking?" King continued.

"It's hard not to look," Kravitz responded. "You know, when you desire something, you're looking for it, right? But I find that when you don't look is when you find it. And I'm at a place where, I've said this for several years, 'I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready' — I wasn't ready. I thought I was ready. But I can say that I've never felt how I feel now."

King, 69, gave the singer another nice compliment before the conclusion of the segment: "I'll just say this about you: You seem very comfortable in your own skin at all times."

Lenny Kravitz explains why he works out in leather pants: 'I don't do it for effect'
Clearly, King, 69, thinks highly of the "Fly Away" musician.
"When Lenny Kravitz walks in a room, you are the epitome of cool, you are the epitome of sexiness," she said at the beginning of the interview. "And I'm wondering if you are aware of the effect you have on people, or is this something you have to work at?"

Kravitz answered while maintaining a sense of mystique and humility.
"I don't work on it at all, and I don't think about it," he said. "But I am aware of people's reactions."
The rocker sent some positive energy in King's direction as well. After she told him, "I feel so happy to be on the planet," Kravitz warmly added, "Healthy and gorgeous."

Wanda Sykes says people who mistook her for Lenny Kravitz in New Orleans 'drank everything on Bourbon Street'
Elsewhere in the segment, the singer explained how his daughter Zoë Kravitz has helped him combat his people-pleasing tendencies.
"That's something that I've been exercising, and growing in, where 'No' is necessary at times," he said. “And this is something that I actually learned from my daughter. She's so good at creating her boundaries. And boundaries are healthy, but that generation, they don't have time to play."

Kravitz's 12th studio album Blue Electric Light came out on Friday.


Madonna Sparks New Romance With British Boxer Richard Riakporhe
Madonna, 65, has reportedly grown close to British boxer Richard Riakporhe in recent weeks after they met through mutual friends in the fashion industry. The 34-year-old, nicknamed The Midnight Train, is said to get on "very well" with Madonna following her break-up with her former boxer boyfriend Josh Popper, 30.

A source told The Sun, "Richard met Madonna through the fashion world. They have mutual friends. They get on really well and have a lot of fun in each other's company."
The pair were reportedly introduced in 2023 when Richard modeled for Burberry. In October, Madonna shared a photo on social media of herself straddling Richard with the caption: "I had to sit somewhere."

Richard has teased that Madonna might attend his upcoming fight with Chris Billam-Smith at Crystal Palace's Selhurst Park stadium next month. He said, "Madonna says she's going to come down if she's in London. She said she wants to come to the fight."
Richard, who is 6ft 5in and undefeated in all 17 of his fights, grew up in South London and survived a stabbing at age 15.

Madonna's split from Popper came after they struggled to find time together due to her lengthy Celebration Tour, which concluded in May. The pair met through Madonna's son, David Banda, who was taking boxing lessons from Popper.
Sources close to the couple said there was "genuinely no bad blood" between them and that they remain friends.

Madonna's love life has been marked by a series of high-profile relationships, including her marriages to Sean Penn and Guy Ritchie. She has also been romantically linked to younger partners such as Brahim Zaibat and Kevin Sampaio.


Rihanna Shows Off Apparent Weight Loss In Skin Tight Dress After Third Pregnancy Rumors

Rihanna doesn't need word to silence persistent pregnancy rumors. The singer-turned-businesswoman has shown off her slim figure after apparent weight loss during a recent event in China following speculation that she's pregnant with her third baby.
On Sunday, May 26, the mother of two took to her Instagram page to post a video showcasing her moments at the Fenty Beauty pop-up shop in Shanghai. In one of the snaps, the 36-year-old rocked a dress dress which perfectly clung to the skin.

The figure-hugging dress featured a thigh-high slit, long sleeves and a turtleneck. Looking thinner than ever, the Grammy winner wore her blonde hair down and straight with blunt bangs and accessorized with elbow-length red leather gloves. She completed her sultry look with red pointy-toed heels with a strap around her slender ankles.

In the caption, Rihanna gushed over her time in the city. "Shanghai!! you have my heart," she wrote. "To all of my incredible Chinese fans, it was such an honor to meet some of you and connect with all of you through our love for makeup! I was so inspired by the vibrant culture and the welcoming people at the @fentybeauty pop up & party. I can't wait to come back."

The "Umbrella" hitmaker, who just launched her wildly popular cosmetics line in China, has been rumored having a bun in the oven again. The speculation ran rampant on the Internet after she was accused of pretending to take a sip of champagne at a Fenty Beauty event in Los Angeles.
Further fueling the rumors, Rih canceled her appearance at the Met Gala at the last minute. While a source told PEOPLE that she decided to skip the event as she was sick with the flu, many claimed that it's not the actual reason of her absence from the event.

However, a recent video showed the Barbadian beauty taking shot at a club. In the clip that circulated online last week, she could be seen enjoying what seems to be alcoholic drink while engrossed in conversation with a person who was sitting next to her.


Doja Cat Brazenly Responds After Warned For Dissing Her Dad
Doja Cat shows no remorse after being accused of disrespecting her dad. The singer/rapper has brazenly responded via social media after people slammed her for dissing her father Dumisani Dlamini, whom she labeled a "deadbeat."
The Grammy winner launched her seemingly unprovoked verbal attack at her father via her social media accounts. In an updated X bio, the 28-year-old wrote, "My dad's a deadbeat but I did well."

On Monday, May 27, she also posted on her Instagram page a close-up image of her face and her behind clad in white pants. In the original caption, she wrote, "Dad, lemme know when/if you need me to re-up your makeup cabinet cuz you a b***h."
The "Kiss Me More" femcee later edited the caption to read, "I'm gonna turn you into my next project and you're gonna have to listen to it for the rest of your god forsaken life."

Seeing Doja's remarks, one of her followers warned her about dissing her father, "You are messing with a wrong one zulus don't play...your ancestors will humble you." Unfazed by the warning, she wrote back, "Go give the deadbeat a kiss on the lips for me."
Another person commented on Doja's post, "That's so disrespectful..... do it again.." She replied, "gave me a lazy eye and dipped."

Doja, whose real name is Amala Ratna Zandile Dlamini, was born to Dumisani, a South African performer of Zulu descent, and Deborah Sawyer, an American graphic designer of Jewish heritage. She has a brother, Raman Dalithando Dlamini, who was recently accused of being abusive toward his mother and famous sister.
While performing on Broadway, Dumisani was too busy on tour to spend time with Doja and her brother. The actor/dancer then left his family in the U.S. for South Africa out of homesickness. Doja has suggested on multiple occasions that she is estranged from her father despite his claims that he has a "healthy" relationship with his daughter.


Nicki Minaj furious over DJ Boof signing fan's boobs

Nicki Minaj, the queen of rap, has found herself in the midst of yet another drama, this time involving her touring DJ, DJ Boof. The scandal erupted after Boof was spotted signing a fan's breast with a Sharpie at one of Nicki's concerts, and it has the internet buzzing.
DJ Boof took to his Instagram story to share a photo of himself proudly signing the chest of an elated fan dressed in a bright pink dress. The fan's smile was as wide as it could get, but Nicki Minaj was far from pleased. Boof's caption read, "I'm really famous. They asked me to sign their

Nicki, never one to hold back, fired back swiftly on X (formerly known as Twitter). "I promise I'll fire him if I EVAHHHHH see this again. Df," she posted, making it clear she wasn't amused by Boof's antics.
Fans were quick to join the fray. One fan wrote, "He over here trynna ride the sign my ------- wave like," to which Nicki responded, "Like??!! It's clear to SEE boof wanna be ME."


Angel Reese Responds to Charles Barkley Saying WNBA Players Should Stop Giving Caitlin Clark a Hard Time

Angel Reese had some words for Caitlin Clark and Charles Barkley after the latter claimed other WNBA players should stop being "petty" and thank Clark for getting the league private charter flights, visibility, and more.
Earlier this week, Sir Charles called out various WNBA players for allegedly giving Clark a hard time on the court. According to Barkley, the women in the league should thank Clark for all the changes that have been implemented instead of giving her a hard time.

Barkley's statement and all the press regarding Clark may have rubbed Reese the wrong way. She hopped on her X page and shared a since-deleted response after her Chicago Sky team handed the New York Liberty their first loss of the season. Reese poured in 13 points, nine rebounds, and one assist.

According to Reese, teams need more than just one player on a "charter flight" to be successful. "And that's on getting a win in a packed out [arena], not just cause of one player on our charter flight," she tweeted.
There are several layers under Reese's message. The 22-year-old mentioned her team added a tally to their win column, a possible shot at Clark and the Indiana Fever, who are currently 0-5 on the season. The mention of a "packed crowd" could refer to teams selling out arenas without the help of Clark, while the "charter flight" reference is an obvious nod to the WNBA ruling that teams can now take advantage of such perks.

The friction between Reese and Clark can be traced back to the 2023 college basketball National Championship game when the Iowa Hawkeyes took on the Louisiana State University Tigers. During the game, Reese taunted Clark with WWE wrestler John Cena's "You Can't See Me" gesture.


Diddy's Sean John Eyewear Removed From America’s Best Contacts and Eyeglasses Following 

Diddy's wallet continues to be impacted as the Bad Boy Records founder faces multiple lawsuits over alleged sexual assault and sex trafficking.
TMZ reports America's Best Contacts & Eyeglasses has halted sales of Diddy's Sean John eyewear following the recently released video of the entertainment mogul assaulting Cassie at a Los Angeles hotel back in March 2016.

"Stores received a message Tuesday to remove all Sean Johns from the frame boards and replace them with frames at an appropriate price point from understock," the outlet notes. "They put a hold on selling the frames and told the stores to wait for further instruction."
It isn't the first company that's dropped Diddy in recent days.

Last week, Peloton announced it was removing his music on its workout class platform in response to the lawsuits facing the 54-year-old. In addition, back in March, TMZ revealed Diddy had sold all his shares of Revolt, a multimedia network he co-founded in 2013, after his homes were raided by federal agents.

“We take this issue very seriously and can confirm Peloton has paused the use of Sean Combs’ music, as well as removed the Bad Boy Entertainment Artist Series, on our platform,” the comment read, per a screenshot obtained by People. “This means our Instructors are no longer using his music in any newly produced classes. Again, thank you for sharing your concerns and for being a member of our Peloton community.”

Last Sunday, days after CNN released surveillance footage of Diddy brutally assaulting his then-girlfriend Cassie, in a hotel hallway eight years ago, the Bad Boy Records boss took to Instagram to issue an apology for his "behavior" in the leaked video.
“It's so difficult to reflect on the darkest times in your life. Sometimes you gotta do that. I was fucked up,” Diddy said. “I mean, I hit rock bottom but I make no excuses. My behavior on that video is inexcusable. I take full responsibility for my actions in that video. I’m disgusted. I was disgusted then when I did it, I'm disgusted now.”


Boston Celtics Sweep of Indiana Pacers to Advance to NBA Finals

The Boston Celtics prevailed in a closely contested matchup with the Indiana Pacers to win 105-102 and complete a four-game sweep to advance to the 2024 NBA Finals Monday night in Indianapolis, Indiana.
Celtics star Jaylen Brown scored 29 points and six rebounds in the victory. He was named Eastern Conference Finals MVP. Meanwhile, Jayson Tatum added 26 points, 13 rebounds, and eight assists to lift the Celtics to a second NBA Finals appearance in the past three years.

“It’s special, right? Even though we’ve been there before, most of us have. We don’t take it for granted, we were excited,” Tatum said after the game. “It was a hell of a team we just played. They made us earn every single game and we’re extremely grateful to move on to the Finals.”

The Pacers, who were playing without All-Star Tyrese Haliburton for a second consecutive game due to a hamstring strain, held a 98-90 lead over the Celtics with just under six minutes remaining in the fourth quarter. However, Boston outscored Indiana 15-4 to close the game out, finishing with a Derrick White 3-pointer from the corner with 43.9 seconds left to give the Celtics a 105-102 lead.

Pacers guard Andrew Nembhard, who scored a team-high 24 points, had a chance to tie the game with 33.6 seconds remaining but missed his 3-point attempt. Indiana did not get possession of the ball for the remainder of the game.
The Celtics came from behind for the second straight game, after they overcame an eight-point deficit to take Game 3.

“We thanked our players a few moments ago for an amazing season, a magical season,” Pacers head coach Rick Carlisle said after the game. “The level of fight was just tremendous all the way through this. Circumstance never phased them, one way or the other, they were in this to win every possession that they could and any game that they could, and so a lot of respect to our players and just how they conducted themselves in the series.”

Boston will play the winner of the Western Conference Finals series between the Dallas Mavericks and Minnesota Timberwolves. The Mavericks hold a 3-0 series lead over the Timberwolves.
