#RHOA: Nene Leakes Steps Out In LaQuan Smith
One thing about Leakes, she doesn’t shy away from showing skin. In her recent posts this week, she wore a black full-body cutout dress designed by LaQuan Smith. The long-sleeved, full-length dress was paired with a clear pair of Jessica Rich heels. When we saw this look as her caption read we simply had to channel our inner Beyonce as she did.
Other looks that she’s been serving throughout the month have built up to this LaQuan Smith moment. From her all-black corset and cargo outfit earlier this month to dipping her toes into more summery hues such as her form-fitting lavender dress or orange feather-detailed tank top and trousers from LaPointe, which subsequently sold out, Leakes is a fashion connoisseur in her own right.
We’ll be keeping an eye out for more of her “bow down” fashion moments that she keeps delivering. From the looks of this week, there seems to be plenty more on the way.
#MusicNews: Ryan Leslie Pops Up On NPR Music’s ‘Tiny Desk Concert’ Series
Ever since assuming the role of producer and host of NPR Music’s Tiny Desk Concert series, Bobby Carter has shaken the table. He’s brought some notable R&B artists to the office recently, including Chaka Khan and SWV. For his next selection (see what we did there?), he invited acclaimed producer and artist Ryan Leslie to NPR’s Washington, D.C. headquarters to make his Tiny Desk debut.
R. Les has largely been out of the mainstream spotlight since he decided to go independent and forge his own path while embracing new technologies. The musical maestro was high on Carter’s Tiny Desk performer wishlist, and Leslie proved to be a solid choice.
Despite releasing the brand-new album You Know My Speed earlier this year, Ryan decided to perform all classic material during his energetic and exciting set. His performance was heavy on songs from his 2008 self-titled debut album. He began with the Ryan Leslie album cut “Just Right” before transitioning into “Something That I Like” from his 2009 sophomore album Transition.
Accompanied by his band abackground vocalists Charity Davis, Corey Latif Williams and Samara Brown, Ryan multitasked by playing synths, singing, rapping and charming the audience with songs like his hit single “Diamond Girl,” Cassie’s “Long Way 2 Go” and Red Cafe’s “Fly Together.” He took it back to his first album to wrap his performance with “How It Was Supposed To Be” and the still-intoxicating track “Addiction.”

Sinead O'Connor's Cause Of Death Revealed
Sinead O'Connor's official cause of death has been unveiled a year after her passing. The "Nothing Compares 2 U" singer's death certificate, obtained by the Irish Independent, reveals that she succumbed to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma. The certificate notes she was also suffering from a low-grade lower respiratory tract infection.
O'Connor's husband, John Reynolds, registered her death in London on July 24, 2024. The singer had passed away in her London home the day before after being found "unresponsive" by authorities.
The South London coroner's office had ruled in January that O'Connor's death was due to natural causes. Police had initially treated her passing as suspicious but later determined there was no foul play.
O'Connor had struggled with mental health issues for much of her life, including PTSD and depression. In 2022, her 17-year-old son Shane O'Connor took his own life.
The Irish singer's passing at age 56 prompted an outpouring of grief and tributes. She is survived by three children, including daughter Roisin Waters.
Known for her powerful vocals, close-cropped haircut, and outspoken political views, O'Connor made her mark with her debut album "The Lion and the Cobra" in 1987. Her 1990 masterpiece "I Do Not Want What I Haven't Got" featured the global hit "Nothing Compares 2 U" and other enduring favorites.
Taylor Swift-Themed Event Ends w/ 2 Children Dead & Several Others Hospitalized In UK Mass Stabbing
According to reports, the incident occurred earlier today (July 29) at a property located in Southport, England. Merseyside Police were able to track down and arrest a 17-year-old male in connection to the brutal attack. The stabbing took place at a Taylor Swift kids’ dance and yoga workshop, which was attended by at least 25 young girls between the ages of 6 and 11.
At the time of this report, two children have died and nine other individuals were injured, including six who are in critical condition.
Authorities said in a statement that the suspect “remains in police custody and will be questioned about the incident.”
UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer condemned the shocking news on X (formerly Twitter). He wrote,
“Horrendous and deeply shocking news emerging from Southport. My thoughts are with all those affected.
I would like to thank the police and emergency services for their swift response.
I am being kept updated as the situation develops.”
The motive behind the stabbing has not yet been revealed.
Three Foolio Murder Suspects Have Been Arrested By Tampa Police, With Two More Remaining At Large
Tampa police have arrested three of five of the people suspected of involvement in the murder of Florida rapper Foolio, who was gunned down in June at the age of 26. According to TMZ, Tampa police announced they arrested Alicia Andrews, Isaiah Chance, and Sean Gathright in Jacksonville; all three have been charged with first-degree murder. The two remaining suspects are brothers, Davion and Rashad Murphy. Per the Tampa Police Chief Lee Bercaw, all five have connections to a gang supposedly tied to another rapper, Yungeen Ace, with whom Foolio was known to be feuding over the past few years as both gained popularity.
Foolio was killed in the early hours of June 23, as multiple gunmen surrounded and shot at his vehicle in the parking lot of a Holiday Inn, where he was celebrating his 26th birthday after getting booted from an Airbnb for violating occupancy rules. TMZ shared security video released by police that showed the shooters approaching the hotel parking lot and firing at the rapper’s car with automatic rifles. Three other victims were apparently shot and hospitalized, but there were no other reported fatalities.
Yungeen Ace’s feud with Foolio went viral as a result of Ace’s 2021 song “Who I Smoke,” which drew attention for its interpolation of Vanessa Carlton’s fan-favorite 2002 hit “A Thousand Miles.” After Foolio’s death, he released another diss track, “Do It.”
Ciara gets her own day in Atlanta
“The Atlanta City Council is pleased to honor Ciara Princess Harris,” Atlanta City Council member Michael Julian Bond said. “Born in College Park, Georgia, just outside of here. She grew up in Decatur and has over 30 million records sold, 40 million singles sold and three platinum albums worldwide.
“She’s a philanthropist,” the city official continued. “She speaks out on behalf of women’s rights and young girls. She’s a mentor and educator. She puts her money back in the community. So it is our privilege, our pleasure to honor you today with this proclamation. Now, therefore, on behalf of the city council and the City of Atlanta, hereby proclaim this day, July 28, 2024, as Ciara Day.”
Ciara, on stage, shocked to get honored a second-straight night, smiled and laughed as the compliments rained down. A crown was placed on her head, as a proud Jazze Pha applauded along with the rest of the crowd. On the tour’s first night in Atlanta, Ciara received plaques for the 20th anniversary of her album, Goodies.
Due to being the final act before the headlining Missy Elliott, Ciara kept her remarks brief.
“I’m so grateful,” she said. “I’m kind of speechless because I was not expecting this. What I wanted to say to you guys is that all it takes is one person to believe in yourself. I didn’t have much but I had a big dream. That was all it took.”
“To all my single moms out there, you can figure it out. I want you to know that. To all my ladies in the house tonight? If you have a dream, hold on to it because you have the power with everything within you. Your gender or your color will stop you from where you want to go in life. Live every moment to the fullest, and look up to the fullest. Keep dreaming. I love you guys. Thank you, Atlanta!” the “Level Up” hitmaker said.
R. Kelly Takes His Case to the Supreme Court
Two years ago Grammy Award winning singer / songwriter R. Kelly was sentenced to 30 years in prison for human trafficking and violating the Mann Act. Now Kellz is trying to have his conviction overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court...
R. Kelly is asking the United States Supreme Court to throw out his convictions for possession of child corn and inducing minors to have six – claiming his alleged acts occurred decades ago and the charges were therefore barred by the statute of limitations.
Here's the deal ... when R. Kelly was accused in 2020 of possessing child cornography and engaging in sixual acts with underage girls way back in the mid to late-1990s, he argued the statute of limitations had already run its course.
But, prosecutors argued a 2003 law – called the PROTECT Act – made the statute of limitations indefinite for child six crimes.
Basically, Kelly's attorney, Jennifer Bonjean, argues that because the conduct for which Kelly's now serving time occurred in the '90s but the PROTECT Act wasn't passed until 2003, the Act's expanded statute of limitations doesn't apply to the charges against him.
You'll recall, Kelly was convicted of six of 13 counts back in 2020 -- three for child cornography and three for inducement counts.
He received a 20-year sentence and was ordered to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars in damages to his alleged victims.
The Supreme Court will decide in the next few months whether to hear Kelly's appeal.Olympic schedule for July 30: Simone Biles,
Tom Daley Wins Silver Medal at 2024 Olympics While Husband Dustin Lance Black Cheers Him On with Their Two Kids!
Tom Daley had a very special moment at the 2024 Paris Olympics… his kids got to watch him win a medal!
The 30-year-old British diver and diving partner Noah Williams won the silver medal in the men’s synchronized 10-meter platform final on Monday (July 29) at the Paris Aquatics Center in Paris, France.
Tom‘s husband Dustin Lance Black was in the crowd with their six-year-old son Robbie and one-year-old son Phoenix.
Dustin commented on the win after the amazing moment.
“I’ve seen the amount of work and love that he put into it this time. It was at a different level. And I know it’s cause of these guys and them getting to see him dive today was so special already, just arriving here,” Dustin told BBC Sport. “And the fact that he just won the one medal he’s never won before. My God, what a day. What a day. It’s very moving for family because we see the hard work and dedication that goes into making it look effortless and it’s what he and Noah did today. So we’re so proud.”
Last week, Tom made a video showing what the cardboard beds in the Olympic Village look like.

Kamala Harris Quotes an Episode of “The Simpsons ”During Surprise Appearance at Show's Comic-Con Panel
Harris, 59, addressed fans of Fox's animated series in a video clip played at the end of a panel celebrating the show, according to multiple reports.
"We must move forward, not backward; upward, not forward; and always twirling, twirling, twirling towards freedom,” Harris said, quoting the 1996 "Treehouse of Horror VII" episode in a pre-recorded clip, per The Hollywood Reporter.
To introduce the clip, The Simpsons creator Matt Groening told the audience that they were about to hear from a "superfan." No context was given about when the clip was recorded.
“Treehouse of Horror VII" originally aired in October 1996 ahead of the election between former President Bill Clinton and his challenger at the time, the late Bob Dole. The two candidates were being impersonated by aliens Kang and Kodos in the Halloween episode.
Harris' appearance at the panel comes after fans on social media have been pointing out the similarities between the politician and the animated character Lisa Simpson in a 2000 episode of the series, titled "Bart to the Future," where Lisa became the first female president.
Lisa wore a purple blazer accessorized with a pearl necklace in the episode. The Simpsons writer Al Jean pointed out in a post on X (formerly Twitter) featuring side-by-side photos of Harris and Lisa that the character's outfit was similar to the one that Harris wore on Inauguration Day in 2021 when she was sworn in as vice president.
"@TheSimpsons 'prediction' I’m proud to be a part of," Jean wrote in the post on July 21, the day that President Joe Biden dropped out of the 2024 presidential race and announced his endorsement of Harris.
Chipotle CEO Announces Increased Portions Following Social Media Complaints
*Your next Chipotle order might feel a bit heavier. CEO Brian Niccol announced during a recent earnings call that all 3,500 U.S. locations will serve larger portions, according to NBC News. This addresses social media complaints that the chain has been short-changing customers.
“Getting the feedback caused us to relook at our execution across our entire system,” Niccol said, per NBC News. “We have focused in on those outlier portion scores based on consumer surveys.”
Niccol noted that only 10% of restaurants required retraining to meet the “right standards.”
“We are re-emphasizing training and coaching to ensure we are consistently making bowls and burritos correctly. We have also leaned in and re-emphasized generous portions across all of our restaurants,” Niccol added.
Popular TikTok food critic Keith Lee criticized Chipotle in a viral video over his small portions, which prompted customers to check if they were being shorted.
In May, customers began filming their orders being prepared and many left if the portions were too small. This led to rumors that employees provided larger portions only to those recording. Chipotle denied giving any instructions to employees about filming.
Coco Gauff loses at Paris Olympics, still has 2 chances to medal
Coco Gauff lost today at the Paris Olympics in singles competition to Croatian Donna Vekić, who is ranked #13 in the world, 7-6 (7). 6-2 and has been eliminated from singles medal contention.
Perhaps it was her grueling schedule that got to her, but 20-year-old tennis superstar Coco Gauff lost today at the Paris Olympics in singles competition, losing to Croatian Donna Vekić, who is ranked #13 in the world.
After her win yesterday, Gauff discussed the heat in Paris.
“I came from Florida, where it is hotter, but obviously, I mean, it is hot out there,” she said. “You feel it, but I feel like I know how to survive in that type of weather, maybe better than some other players. I did use the ice towel, which I rarely do in matches, but it was more of a preventative thing because I’m in three events. Even today. I usually wouldn’t take an ice bath after a match like this, but I’m just trying my best to be preventative before maybe I feel fatigue and everything. Obviously, my last two matches have went quick, so I’m just trying to think for the future towards the end of the tournament.”
Though she lost in singles competition, Gauff plays later today in mixed doubles, teaming with top American male player Taylor Fritz. The duo will play Nadia Podoroska and Maximo Gonzalez of Argentina. Gauff is also playing women’s doubles, where she is playing with Jessica Pegula and will play Linda Noskova and Karolina Muchova of Czechia tomorrow morning.
Pegula, who lost yesterday in women’s singles, discussed playing with Gauff.
“I definitely still obviously want to do well in doubles with Coco,” she proclaimed. “That’s our goal, to at least to keep going to get to some medal rounds. That’s been our goal, I think, since we knew we were going to play.”
Although Gauff will not accomplish her goal of winning singles gold at the Paris Olympics, she still has two chances to win in women’s doubles and mixed doubles.

Bill Maher Calls Taylor Swift 'Very Tacky', Thinks She'll Be Dumped By Travis Kelce
Comedian and TV host Bill Maher recently shared his thoughts on Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's relationship, predicting that the couple will inevitably break up. During a conversation with Haliey Welch, known as "Hawk Tuah Girl," on his "Club Random" podcast, Maher questioned the sustainability of Swift and Kelce's romance.
"I'm sure she's a lovely person, but the whole thing with the football player," Maher began, referring to Swift, 34. He continued, "I just felt like 35 was a little old to be like, 'My boyfriend's a football player and I wear his jersey to the game with his number on it!' I mean, come on."
Swift has been a regular presence at Kansas City Chiefs games, proudly sporting Kelce's number. Despite showing unwavering support for her boyfriend, Maher remains unconvinced about their future together. "He's gonna dump her, though. You know that," Maher bluntly stated, likening Swift's fate to being doused with Gatorade at the Super Bowl: inevitable but unpredictable.
Haliey Welch defended Swift, suggesting that the singer should do "whatever makes her happy." However, she also acknowledged the potential for Swift to turn any breakup into another hit album, referencing Swift's past heartbreak-inspired songs. "It won't be 'f**k John Mayer' no more, it will be 'f**k Travis,' " Welch said, alluding to Swift's breakup tracks from her relationship with John Mayer.
Maher didn't stop at predicting the breakup. He criticized Swift for continuously writing songs about her exes, calling it "very tacky." He went on to suggest that she should perhaps consider penning a song titled "Maybe It's Me."
Despite his harsh critique, Maher admitted he admires Swift's success, comparing her impact on music to that of The Beatles, Frank Sinatra, and Elvis Presley.
Though Maher has his doubts, the couple appears to be going strong. Swift and Kelce's relationship has been in the spotlight since they were first linked in September 2023. Swift has been candid about not keeping their relationship private, unlike her previous romance with Joe Alwyn. Kelce, too, has expressed his comfort with the public attention that comes with dating the global superstar.

LeToya Luckett Allegedly Quietly Married To Mystery Husband
LeToya Luckett may believe that third time's a charm. The former Destiny's Child member has reportedly quietly married her mystery man, three years after the end of her marriage to Tommicus Walker.
Sources tell Media Take Out that the wedding took place at the elegant Le Tesserae in Houston this past weekend. Tons of celebrities were said to be in attendance, including her former groupmate Kelly Rowland and Beyonce Knowles' mother Tina Knowles. The "Lemonade" singer herself wasn't said to be present at the nuptials.
Very little is known about the alleged wedding celebration and there's no image or video from the event as the site notes that all guests were required to surrender their phones at the door to make sure no one leaked about the wedding.
As for identity of LeToya's alleged new husband, it remains unknown. Sources say he is "not in the music or entertainment industry," but the R&B artist and her man are very much in love.
Should the news be true, it's the third marriage for LeToya, who was previously married to motivational speaker Rob Hill Sr and Tommicus Walker. Her first marriage lasted just two months in 2016. She went on marry Tommicus in 2017. The former pair share two children together. In January 2021, LeToya made public her decision to go separate ways with Tommicus.
"After very prayerful consideration, Tommicus and I have decided to get a divorce. It is my deepest desire for us to be loving co-parents and keep a peaceful environment out of respect for our children," she wrote in a note along with a family portrait.
Asking public to give them privacy, she thanked fans "in advance for your prayers, support, & space to heal as we tread through this challenging time." In the caption of the post, she simply wrote, "Love always."
Their split came following allegation that Tommicus had a secret "family." He later denied that he ever cheated on LeToya, claiming on social media, "For the record, I NEVER STEPPED OUT ON MY WIFE.

Excerpts From Kim Porter's Alleged Memoir Has surfaced online!
Since her death six years ago there have been rumors that Kim Porter had been working on a memoir.
Now an alleged excerpt from the secret memoir has surfaced online...
From Radar Online
Diddy's late ex-girlfriend Kim Porter detailed the alleged abuse she suffered at the hands of the disgraced producer, who fathered three of her children, in a never-before-seen memoir.
A source, whom wished to remain anonymous, provided the document to RadarOnline.com and said it was found on Porter's long-lost flash drive.
It was given to the informant by someone "very close to Kim and Diddy" and was written in the months leading up to her sudden death, the individual claimed.
While we have unable to independently verify those claims, the 40-page manuscript — which we have reviewed — is filled with explosive anecdotes about the actress and model's time with the rapper, born Sean John Combs.
In one chapter, Porter wrote about how the "jealous" rapper's short fuse made her "walk on eggshells", and recalled one instance where he allegedly sent her to the hospital after brutally beating her with a chair.
Porter described the exchange that led to her hospital visit in the purported memoir obtained by RadarOnline.com, writing: "We were supposed to go out for dinner, but he was in a foul mood. Sean yelled, 'What the f---!' I would have to walk on eggshells as I came out of the bathroom, but I found him holding flowers, so I smiled, 'You brought me flowers!' Sean yelled, 'No! So who the f--- are they from?' I was bewildered, and told him honestly, 'I don't know. Probably just a fan.'"
"He threw the attached card at me. I picked it up to read it. 'Sean i...' He slapped me so hard I hit the ground. Sean yelled, 'Who the f--- were you with the other night?' I looked down at the card that was lying next to me, and it read, 'The other night was amazing, we must do it again.'"
According to the document, when she tried to explain Combs "threw the flowers" at her and said: "That's not how this works! You have my child! you don't touch anyone, unless I allow it!"
She wrote: "[Diddy] picked up my coffee mug and slammed it against the wall. Coffee flew everywhere as he yelled, 'Who the f--- this n---- think he is?'"
While "desperately trying to calm him down", Porter insisted: "It was just coffee with the producer, it was nothing!" She explained they met up to discuss "maybe me starring in another movie that he wants to produce".
"Sean exploded even more, 'He wants to put the move on my f---ing family?' At the top of his lungs 'My f---ing family!' He flipped the table over, breaking it. It was a heavy table, but Sean is stronger than he looks."
"I pleaded with him, 'Sean please!' He yelled at me, 'What?!' I tried my best to calm him down, 'He probably didn't know. It didn't come up. You're publicly dating someone else. So...' He screamed at me, and it somehow seemed even more intense, 'So, you didn't tell him back off?!'"
"And then out of nowhere, he hit me with a chair. I don't remember anything after that, until I woke up in a hospital room."
According to the document, Porter said when she woke up in the hospital, "My arm was in a cast, hanging from a sling. My face hurt. My eyebrow was in immense pain, as was my lip. As I came to, the first face I saw, was of the man that put me here."
"Sean asked with concern in his voice, 'How are you feeling?' I responded, 'Stay away from me.'"
Writing in the supposed manuscript, she said Diddy apologized and told her: "I don't know what came over me", but she was afraid for her safety because they were in a "private hospital room, and no one would hear me. I could scream like my life depended on it, but it wouldn't matter."
As she lay in the hospital bed, the musician allegedly said: "I was just so jealous. You know how I am...I'm sorry. Baby, I promise, I'll never put my hands on you again, I swear."
She recalled thinking: "I've heard this song one too many times."
Porter then wrote she was concerned Diddy might lie and say she "had a car accident", claiming he told her: "They'll pity you, that you hit your head."
"He was going to make me look crazy. They were going to believe him. He was a Kingpin."
Yet she said Combs spent "the next six months helping me heal, and working his way back into my life. And into my bed."
"I was so d---ed stupid. And of course, I wasn't cast for either movie. From what I understand, the producer died of pneumonia."
It was unclear when the alleged incident occurred, but Porter noted that Combs was "publicly dating someone else" at the time.
The source who gave RadarOnline.com access to the document plans to publish the entire thing under the title, Kim's Lost Words: A Journey for Justice, From the Other Side.
