David Beckham for Love Magazine Beckham Wearing Turquoise Eyeliner - January 2019

David Beckham showed off his neck tattoos and a whole new look to adorn the cover of Love magazine.

Posing in front of a hot-pink and red backdrop, the soccer star, 43, sported a white blazer and a beige, pin-striped button-down for the photo shoot and jazzed up an otherwise understated ensemble with turquoise eyeliner. In the shot, he looked off camera so the birds, flowers and script inked on his neck are clearly visible.

The magazine revealed that its upcoming issue, out Tuesday, tells the story of how the father of four balanced his confidence on the field with his struggle to feel at ease when he wasn’t kicking a ball around.

“From the very first time he set foot on the field, @davidbeckham knew he wanted to be a football player. ‘That’s how my career started and that is where I felt most at ease, most confident and happiest. I turned into a totally different person. Once I was on the field I knew that was what I could do best,’ ” explains the caption of an Instagram of the cover shared to Love‘s account.

“While his confidence came easily on the pitch, off the pitch was a different story,” it continues. “David Beckham is our #LOVE20.5 cover star, a catalogue of pictures from our first moving image issue – #movingLOVE.”

Beckham may be the epitome of an A-list celeb, but his family has stayed very important to him. Last week, he celebrated the start of 2019 with his wife, Victoria Beckham, 44, their sons, Brooklyn Beckham, 19, Romeo Beckham, 16, and Cruz Beckham, 13, and daughter Harper, 7.

#RHoA: Oh? Why is Peter Thomas’ throwing SHADE at Cynthia Bailey’s Boyfriend?

Peter Thomas caught up with old pals Nene and Gregg Leakes on Sunday’s episode of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta,” and he let his shade flag fly when it came to addressing his ex-wife’s new man.

As Nene began filling Thomas in on what’s going on in Cynthia Bailey’s love life with Fox Sports 1 analyst Mike Hill, the Bar One founder initially downplayed the relationship.

“I didn’t know it was real,” Thomas says when the Swagg Boutique owner mentions Bailey has a boyfriend.

Thomas went on to say he wasn’t sure if he knew who Hill was despite his status as a sportscaster.

“Well, you know what? Nene, I am so busy,” he continues when asked if he’d be willing to meet Hill.

He also doubted that he may share some similarities with his ex’s new man. “I don’t watch Fox Sports, I watch ESPN. Stephen A. Smith, that’s my guy.”

Yet Hill has not always been with FS1. He spent nine years with ESPN before joining his current network in 2013.

Regardless, fans ate up the diss online.

“Peter said he doesn’t watch FOX SPORTS he watches ESPN. 🤣😂🌴🌴🌴#RHOA.”

“The shade is real Peter #RHOA.”

“Lol. Peter throwing shade at @FOXSports and he still want that Georgia peach though #RHOA.”

Despite Leakes crowning him The Shade King for his remark, Thomas said he was happy for Bailey’s newfound love.

Bailey and Thomas were married from 2010 to 2017, and their union played out in front of “RHOA” cameras. As such, their marital woes also became an issue that was prominently featured on the show. Those issues included alleged meddling from Bailey’s sister, Malorie, which emerged from the get-go, and allegations that Thomas had cheated on his model wife.

Once the marriage imploded, Thomas indicated that he had no issues in the union, but Bailey did. Thomas also said he was “blindsided” when she filed for divorce in 2016.

“We were separated for about five or six months. I think I’ve only seen Cynthia once — because I’m in Charlotte and she’s in Atlanta,” he said on “The Wendy Williams Show” at the time. “Our whole marriage was on the show, and it’s not easy to live that life … I don’t think she was built for that.”

Since the split, both Thomas and Bailey have moved on. Since at least 2018, the Charlotte, N.C.-based businessman is romancing a younger woman named Toni, whom Gregg teased his pal about on the Jan. 6 episode of “RHOA.”

Even before Steve Harvey hooked up Bailey and Hill five months ago, Thomas had indicated he wasn’t necessarily the coolest with seeing his ex moving on when she was dating entrepreneur Will Jones last season.

“I was with you for 10 years,” Thomas said when Bailey admitted she didn’t know if she wanted to introduce the two when they were at the same event. “I’ve never seen you with another man, so I didn’t want to come over there and say ‘hello’ to you.”

#Empire: Taraji P. Henson nearly loses diamond ring at Golden Globes but finds it with help of Terry Crews

Taraji P. Henson nearly lost a diamond ring on Sunday at the Golden Globe Awards, but found it with the help of Terry Crews.

The 48-year-old actress attended the awards ceremony at The Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, California in a custom Vera Wang green velvet gown and accessorized with sparkling rings, necklace and bracelet.

Taraji while waving her hands lost one of the rings as the ceremony ended, according to an article by People.

'Oh my god, oh my god! No one move! No one move! My ring! My ring!,' Taraji screamed while searching the ground.

Terry, 50, was in the vicinity and helped with crowd control as he got on his knees to look for it.

The actor later told People that he didn't find the ring himself, but helped keep the crowd from moving.

'You know Taraji, she is the best! I'd do anything for her,' Terry said later.

Taraji won the Golden Globes Award in January 2016 for Best Actress - Television Series Drama for her portrayal of Cookie Lyon on the Fox series Empire.

She was at the awards ceremony along with the cast of Ralph Breaks The Internet, which was nominated for Best Animated Feature Film.

Taraji also presented during the ceremony as she teamed up with past Golden Globes Award winner Gina Rodriguez, 34, to present the award for Best Supporting Actor in a TV Series, Limited Series or TV Movie.

#NewMusic from Musiq Soulchild “My Girl” a Collaboration With South Korean Producer Jung Key

Singer Musiq Soulchild links up with South Korean producer Jung Key for the creation of their new single “My Girl”. The song is a timeless ballad featuring a beautiful backdrop that allows Musiq’s stunning vocals to shine..

Although hearing amazing ballads like this are a rarity these days, the high quality of “My Girl” does not deviate far from what Musiq has been creating in recent years.

LISTEN HERE

Jung Key released his debut album “Emotion” back in 2014, and also featured Sisqo on his single “Without You” in 2015. He also just released his latest album “Retro” in late 2018.

#NewHipHop: NaS “Cops Shot The Kid” Video with Slick Rick

Last June, Nas Released Nasir, his Kanye West-produced 11th studio album. One of the most talked-about tracks from the LP was a song called “Cops Shot the Kid," a poignant, Slick Rick-sampling song about police brutality.

In November, a video for the song was featured in the Queens legend’s 16-minute visual album Nasir. Now that particular section of the video gets its standalone music video for viewers to see.

The clip, which was directed by Rohan Blair-Mangat, finds Nas addressing the issues of police brutality in the inner city. The video starts off with the rap veteran walking on the beach with images of riots and a police officer throwing throwing a teen on top of his cruiser.

In another scene, we see Nas spitting his ultra-vivid lyrics in front of his Lamborghini as police helicopters fly above him. We also watch as a young Black man is being chased by the police before he's fatally shot.

WATCH HERE

The video also features a cameo from Slick Rick, whose 1988 cautionary song “Children's Story” is prominently sampled throughout. We'll let you see where he pops up for yourself.

This video comes a couple weeks after Escobar donned an all-white fur coat in Swizz Beatz's frosty video for "Echo," a Nas-featured track from the legendary producer's Poison album. He followed that up with a salute to the golden era of hip-hop in Black Eyed Peas' visually stunning video for "Back 2 HipHop."

#Alabama vs. #Clemson Tigers Mauled Tide to reclaim throne and win The 2019 National Championship

SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- You simply don't get blowouts against Nick Saban's Alabama like that very often -- or ever, in fact. And yet, that's exactly what Clemson did by beating the Crimson Tide 44-16 to win the 2019 College Football Playoff National Championship and capture its second national title in three years.

In doing so, the Tigers became the first team in modern college football history to finish a season 15-0 and the first overall to do so since Penn in 1897. No. 1 seeds, meanwhile, fell to 3-5 in CFP games and a resounding 0-for in the national championship.

Alabama-Clemson IV was polarizing in a number of ways. There was no doubt that these were the two best teams in college football, as they had been the top two wire-to-wire from preseason until now. However, with "fatigue" apparently setting in among casual fans, this game didn't quite have the build-up as previous editions did. That view looked to be silly early on, though, with a 27-point first quarter that had plenty of momentum swings -- from pick-sixes to long touchdowns.

In the end, Clemson pulled away in stunning fashion as it accounted for 482 yards of offense on just 63 plays. Quarterback Trevor Lawrence threw for 347 yards for his second straight postseason game and nearly became the 10th college quarterback to throw for 350 yards against a Saban-led defense. Lawrence became the first true freshman starting quarterback to win a national championship since Oklahoma's Jamelle Holieway in 1985.

Don Lemon Responds To Kevin Hart’s Apology & Reluctance To Become Ally Of LGBTQ Community

On Friday’s CNN Tonight, Don Lemon did an emotional segment about Kevin Hart’s Ellen interview. In it, he criticized the comedian for not apologizing and for portraying himself as a victim and urged him to become an ally of the LGBTQ community. Tonight, Lemon revisited the topic with another Kevin Hart-themed segment.

The CNN anchor revealed that Hart had reached out to him over the weekend, and the two had a lengthy off-the-record phone conversation in which Hart declined Lemon’s repeated requests to come on his show. While Lemon would bot disclose details about the discussion beyond the general topics, he dissected some comments Hart made earlier today on his Sirius XM radio show, which included an apology to the LGBT community.

Lemon was generally pleased with the apology — while questioning Hart’s repeated use of expletives — but took issue with Hart’s direct response to his on-air appeal from Friday, which he played.

“I don ‘t like the forcing,”  Hart said in it. “I don’t like, like Don Lemon goes on CNN, and he’s like, You can fix this, become an ally’. It’s not my dream.””

“He doesn’t want to be an ally of the LGBT community, that’s his right — whether I like it not not, whether you like it or not,” Lemon said. “There has been a lot of blowback, Kevin backed out from hosting the Oscars, and on some level you can understand for him that it feels like he is under attack. But I can tell you for me, as I relate to him, he’s not a victim.”

In all fairness, while Hart did say that being an ally of the LGBTQ community was not his lifetime dream, he made another statement on his radio show that painted him in a similar position; it was not used by Lemon. “If the fight from the LGBTQ community is equality, that’s the fight,” Hart said. “I’m riding with you guys. I understand you.”

Second Man Found Dead In West Hollywood Home Of Major Democratic Donor Ed Buck

A black man in his 50s was found dead early Monday at the West Hollywood apartment of Ed Buck, a prominent Democratic donor associated with a different death in his home last year.

The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department has not yet disclosed the deceased person’s name.

An attorney for Buck told the Los Angeles Times that he believes the individual “was an old friend who died of an accidental overdose” of drugs he had used before coming to Buck’s home.

The incident will sound eerily familiar to anyone who followed the investigation into the death of Gemmel Moore, a 26-year-old black escort who died of an accidental methamphetamine overdose in Buck’s home just 18 months ago. The prominent donor, 65, was present then as well.

The similarities between the two deaths are not lost on law enforcement.

“It is suspicious that this has happened twice now,” Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Lt. Derrick Alfred told reporters outside Buck’s apartment building.

In July, prosecutors declined to charge Buck in connection with Moore’s death ― much to the chagrin of Moore’s family, who said Moore’s journal entries indicated that Buck had a fetish for seeking out gay black men and getting them hooked on dangerous drugs.

Concern that a similar incident could occur grew after other escorts came forward corroborating those claims.

Buck grew to prominence as the founder of the Mecham Watchdog Committee, a campaign he launched in 1987 to impeach former Arizona Gov. Evan Mecham (R). In the first half of 2017, Buck raised nearly $30,000 in state races for California Democratic Reps. Ted Lieu and Pete Aguilar, Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-Ill.) and the Getting Things Done PAC.

Will Smith & Martin Lawrence Begin Day 1 Shooting ‘Bad Boys For Life’ Movie

It has officially begun! Martin Lawrence and Will Smith have begun to shoot their new movie, Bad Boys For Lif3. The film’s co-star, Will Smith, revealed that it was their first day shooting.

Last November, Martin confirmed that he would be in the third installment of the “Bad Boys” franchise.

Speculation and suspicions about whether Lawrence would be joining the cast the third time around were pretty heavy. Production was set to begin in August 2018, but Lawrence still had not confirmed or denied his participation, and in October, Smith, who plays Mike Lowrey, wished his partner a happy birthday on Instagram, asking if he wanted to give it a go

Lawrence would be returning as his original character Marcus Burnett for a slated premiere  of January 17th, 2020. The third installment will be titled “Bad Boys for Life,” and will follow up to the 2003 film “Bad Boys II” and their debut film “Bad Boys” which was released in 1995 and grossed $141.4 million. Romeo Miller has also been cast in the film.

Pastor John Gray Allegedly Cheating On His Wife Before and to smooth things out he brought her that LAMBORGHINI Truck!

Pastor John Gray is coming clean inside and out. During a recent church sermon, Pastor Gray - senior pastor at Relentless Church in Greenville, South Carolina - seemingly confessed to stepping out on his marriage. And he did so in the pulpit with his wife, Aventar Gray, by his side. He talked about how over the last two years he and his wife were headed towards divorce. He said they kept a happy family front even though they were not on one accord.

"We had to keep smiling because even though we were struggling. Even though I was failing as a husband, I was already in front of the people and the people can't really receive my brokeness becasue where do leaders go when they bleed?" he said to the congregation.

"So I had to bleed alone. And what's strange is I traveled the whole world and the Holy Ghost showed up and people got saved and me and wife just kept smiling and nobody knew we were getting ready to get a divorce. Because as long as I kept producing, nobody cared what was happening at home," he continued.

"I started listening to the wrong voices and let some people get too close. She found out and she set it off, just like a good wife should."

Then, his wife grabbed the mic to defend her husband and marriage while dropping a few more deets about his infidelity.

"And then I prayed for them and him and then the devil loses," she said. "Because what's not going to happen is you tell me that I'm going to lose my purpose because someone whispered to a '16-year-old John'. The devil is a lie. I'm standing with my husband and you can go on back to the pits of hell where you came from. Was I upset? Yes. Was I heartbroken? Yes. But, you better learn how to get in there for the - what's the vows? - better and worst so when the worst shows up you don't run way."

"I am the RIB that God took from him. I'm his Rest In Brokenness until he wakes up and understands who he is. You pray wife while the devils run away. I'm not saying sit there in perpetual foolishness, I'm saying to pray the devils away. If you give up too soon, he wins. He couldn't have this purpose. He knew what this was. He was coming for y'all, that's why he came for us. We know better! I see you devil, but you don't want it with me! You can't have this here devil!"

I guess sis...

Three of the indictments the reality TV star faces are felonies, while the other four are misdemeanors, per TMZ.

Lee was arrested twice in a 48 hours period, one for the assault, and the other for violating a no-contact where she was supposed to stay away from her daughter, per 11Alive.com.

Facebook Removes Page The“Surviving Lies” That Aimed to Expose R. Kelly Accusers

Facebook has taken down a page linked to R. Kelly that sought to discredit a woman who accused the singer of sexual assault and also appeared in the Lifetime documentary series Surviving R. Kelly.

Following the finale of Surviving R. Kelly, which aired on Saturday night and highlighted a myriad of sexual assault and abuse allegations against the singer from multiple women over decades, a page titled “Surviving Lies” surfaced on Facebook which ran ads discrediting Kelly’s accusers.

According to a report in TMZ,  the“Surviving Lies” page was created by Kelly’s people. The page reportedly attacked R. Kelly accuser Asante McGee, who appeared in Surviving R. Kelly. The Facebook page made claims that McGee was working with the family of another girl, Joycelyn Savage, to extort the singer. TMZ reports that the page also posted details of McGee’s arrest record.

On Monday, Facebook took the page down.

“The Page violated our Community Standards and has been removed. We do not tolerate bullying or sharing someone’s private contact information and take action on content that violates our policies as soon as we’re aware,” a Facebook spokesperson said in a statement.

Judge Orders Chris Brown To Pay Up After Refusing To Turn Over Drug Tests Results

A California judge has ruled against Chris Brown in the ongoing legal battle with his former manager, Mike Guirguis.

In court documents obtained by The Blast, the L.A. judge hit Brown with sanctions over his refusal to turn over drug test results, as part of the pair’s legal battle over an alleged assault that occurred in 2016.

While Guirguis demanded $3,825 in the motion, the judge only ordered the singer to pay $1,760. In addition, the judge instructed Brown to turn over all documents requested in the case, including any related to Brown’s theft claim, which came after Guirguis sued for the alleged attack, all documents related to Brown’s drug history in 2016 and any documents about his deleted Instagram posts.

Guirguis is also asking for documents in regards to Brown’s criminal history over the last 10 years, restraining orders and documents related to his anger management treatment and courses, the publication reports.

In the meantime, the case, in which Guirguis claimed Brown attacked him without provocation, is still ongoing.

GQ Australia has celebrated its 20th anniversary and the 12th annual GQ Men of the Year Awards. Twenty awards were presented at a black tie gala at The Star in Sydney, with winners appearing in the special GQ Men of the Year issue, now on sale.

#RHoA: Nene Leakes Felt Eva Marcille Looked 'Stupid' During the Pass the Peach Game!

Eva has lots to say about her co-stars behind their backs, but is she able to own the shade in person?

Eva Marcille was caught up in the middle of all the drama on Sunday's "Real Housewives of Atlanta" -- and according to NeNe Leakes, was "looking a little stupid."

The shadefest went down when Cynthia Bailey hosted a "Bailey-cue" at her home, Lake Bailey. She urged the ladies to bring a plus one, and Porsha Williams showed up with two people: Shamea Morton and her sister, Lauren. Naturally, Eva wasn't happy to see Shamea after last week's episode, when she complained to Porsha that her friend was "messy," "shady" and basically untrustworthy. Their beef stems from last season but was allegedly put to bed at Cynthia's Love and Light Ceremony.

"Cynthia's directive was to bring a plus one," Eva told the camera. "But no, [Porsha] brings Lauren and...and..." Refusing to say Shamea's name, Eva took a sip from her drink. Shade!

What Eva didn't know was that Porsha had filled Shamea in on all the smack Eva talked about her the last time everyone hung out. Shamea was genuinely confused by it all because she thought -- like the rest of us -- that everything had been squashed last season. But Shamea was determined to focus on eating (she's pregnant) and avoid any pettiness. And honestly, that's a pretty solid way to go through life.

At the Bailey-cue, Cynthia insisted the ladies play a game of Pass the Peach, which was 100 percent intended to spark up drama. "The person with the peach either answers the question or passes the peach to the person that they think the question is about." We see you, Ms. Bailey!

NeNe pulled the first question: "Who do you think in this group needs a makeover?" NeNe passed the peach to Porsha, who passed it to Eva, who proudly announced that she could "help everybody out with a little bit of glam."

"No shade, I'm gonna pass the peach," she continued, handing the fruit to Shamari DeVoe, the newest Housewife.

Marlo Hampton -- NeNe's forever plus one -- pulled the next question: "Who's a big liar?" She happily answered: "From the past, I would say Porsha. For the future, I would say Eva."

"Pause! Pause, pause, pause, pause, pause," Eva shouted as she stood up. "Why exactly are we a liar?"

Marlo said she didn't feel she really knew Eva. Eva countered by saying she's known Marlo for years. Marlo corrected her, saying she hasn't known her for years -- she's seen her "be fabulous for years."

"But you're definitely extra, and sometimes, you're extra when it's not appropriate," Eva replied. Marlo shot back, "Well, it's not appropriate to be basic. You're basic, darling."

During her confessional, Eva threw shade Marlo's way. "I know of Marlo, and I've seen Marlo multiple times at different events. How I lie? I have no idea, but what I do lie is on my bed, comfortably, next to my man. I'm sorry, where do you lie, Marlo? Next to who? Silence? Okay."

Kandi Burruss interrupted the scream fest between Eva and Marlo to say, "I love you, Eva, but I'm about to give you that peach. The other day, you shaded the hell out of Shamea, and now you fixin' bean dip today." (Cue footage of 15 minutes prior, when Eva was catering to Shamea and asking if she wanted some of her seven-layer bean dip.)

"Cynthia invited us to the lake and asked us to bring a friend," Eva shouted in defense. "So my first question to Porsha was, 'What friend are you bringing?'"

"I'm sorry, but you were fired up about her," Porsha interrupted. "You were going in, girl."

"I'm sorry, but what's wrong with that?" Eva maintained. "The point is, after Love and Light, there was still shade. The interviewer asked a question about you, and I responded."

Shamea -- who had been quiet up to this point -- responded, "It doesn't matter! People ask me questions about you after Love and Light, and I'm cool on that."

"Where?! When?! How?! And it publishes on what?!" Eva fired back.

In comes Cynthia with her grievances: "I heard from someone that you were telling people that I paid Will to date me."

Taken aback, Eva replied, "What I told you was what I knew to be facts." When Cynthia pressed her, Eva admitted, "I don't know that to be true."

"I don't know if Eva is a liar, but it seems that she's getting a little caught up now," NeNe later told Bravo cams. "It's looking a little stupid."

"The Real Housewives of Atlanta" airs Sundays at 8 p.m. on Bravo.

#NewMusic from Tamar Braxton ‘The Makings of You’ Video

Tamar Braxton has been relatively quiet as it relates to her music. However, the R&B songstress surprised her fans with a video for “The Makings of You,” which appears on her Bluebird of Happiness album.

Filmed in Washington, D.C, the ’70s-inspired visual (which is reminiscent of the film Claudine) finds Braxton sitting on a porch daydreaming about her man. Although the video is minimal, it ties in perfectly with the rawness of the song.

WATCH HERE

Braxton released Bluebird of Happiness in September 2017. She made it clear that it is her final album. With the release of “The Makings of You” video, I’m sure Braxton will come\ out of retirement from music very soon.

#HipHopNews: Tekashi 6ix9ine Pleads Not Guilty In Federal Racketeering, Firearms And Drugs Case

Just a little over a week ago, at 7 p.m. EST on Nov. 18, U.S. federal agents arrested Brooklyn's 6ix9ine and a few of his associates on various federal racketeering, weapons and drugs charges. During an arraignment hearing at Manhattan's Thurgood Marshall United States Courthouse Monday afternoon (Nov. 26), the rainbow-haired rapper pleaded not guilty to the charges.

Walking into the courtroom in a navy blue, federal detention-center-issued jumpsuit, the embattled rapper was joined by three other reputed members of the Brooklyn-based Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods. Toward the beginning of the hearing, which lasted just a bit over an hour, 6ix9ine and all three other men pled not guilty to the charges. The trial date for the case is all set to begin on Sept. 4, 2019.

During the course of today's hearing, prosecutors for the U.S. government began presenting the nature of their investigation and the methods they used to obtain information they will use against 6ix9ine and the rest of the indicted Nine Trey members, which include Jamel Jones (Mel Murda), Kifano Jordan (Shottie), Jensel Butler (Ish), Fuguan Lovick (Fu Banga) and Faheem Walter (Crippy).

According to the prosecutors, 6ix9ine's cell phone information was accessed when he crossed the border in March 2018. The government also secured evidence from an extensive search through his social media and Cloud accounts after they got the warrants to conduct the search. They obtained similar information from other members of the set.

At another point of the hearing, which was noted in part for the absence of Faheem Walter, who is still recovering from injuries he sustained in an Oct. 26 shooting, it was said that a July 16 shooting was intended for a Nine Trey member who had reportedly fallen out with the gang. Police allege that Tekashi was one of the Nine Trey members who ordered his shooting, and they learned of the Nine Trey member's location because he was on Instagram Live.

Authorities also cite Tekashi as being responsible for an armed robbery on April 3 while also being a part of the Barclays Center shooting on April 21. They say the shooting unfolded after Tekashi met a rival rapper (reportedly Casanova) who was set to perform for another boxer as said boxer entered the arena that day. 6ix9ine was supposed to perform for that boxer's opponent.

6ix9ine, who the NYPD has confirmed was transferred from Brooklyn Metropolitan Detention Center to another federal detention center, has been hit with six charges, including counts of racketeering conspiracy and using and carrying firearms he discharged in connection to the Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods. 6ix9ine hasn't been granted bail, but his attorney Lance Lazzaro will apply for it directly to the trial judge. Because the trial date isn't for nearly one year, there is a good chance 6ix9ine will remain behind bars for the duration of the time until then.

6ix9ine faces 32 years to life in prison.

#CONDOLENCES: Oprah Winfrey’s Mom, Vernita Lee, DEAD at 83!

Oprah Winfrey’s mom Vernita Lee died on Thanksgiving at her home in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, TMZ reports. She was 83 years old. A private funeral service has already been held.

According to US Weekly, Vernita Lee was born in deeply segregated Mississippi on May 2, 1935 and worked for many years as a housekeeper. Oprah was raised by Lee’s mother, her maternal grandmother, until the age of 6, when she went to live with Vernita in Milwaukee.

Vernita is survived by Oprah and Oprah’s her half-sister Patricia Amanda Faye Lee, grandchildren Alisha Hayes, Chrishaunda Lee Perez, Aquarius Lofton, Andre Brown and great-grandchildren Jaxon Praise Perez, Chai Theresa Perez, Donovan Hayes and Trinity Hayes.

Kim Kardashian Says She Was On Ecstasy During Famous Ray J Sex Tape

Kim Kardashian West says she was under the influence when she made some decisions in her past, including her first marriage – to music producer Damon Thomas when she was just 19 – and a sex tape with her ex, singer Ray J.

“I did ecstasy once and I got married. I did it again, I made a sex tape. Like, everything bad would happen,” Kardashian, 38, told Scott Disick and sister Kendall Jenner.

Kardashian wed music producer Damon Thomas in 2000 when she was 19 years old. He filed for divorce in 2003.

“Like, my jaw was shaking the whole time,” Kardashian said of the experience.

She also recounted the time when she and pal Paris Hilton slept on rafts in the ocean after departing a party in Ibiza at 7 a.m.

“I definitely went through a wild phase, I would say in my late teens. I’m not like that anymore. But I still have fun — don’t get it twisted, I’m always the life of the party,” she said

#BUSINESSNEWS: GM Announces Cuts At Car Assembly Plants In Michigan, Ohio, Canada

‘Making America Great Again'?

General Motors says it plans to cease production of some models at three vehicle assembly plants in the U.S. and Canada in 2019. It also plans to cut production at two plants in the U.S. that make transmissions. The company said the moves are part of an effort to cut 15 percent of its workforce.

It's part of a major restructuring that will prioritize the company's electric and autonomous vehicle programs.

The decision, announced Monday, will impact Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly in Detroit, Lordstown Assembly in Warren, Ohio, and Oshawa Assembly in Oshawa, Ontario. Two transmission plants — one in White Marsh, Md., and another in Warren, Mich. — are also set to stop production.

GM says it is maintaining its profitable lineup of SUVs and trucks but will shift away from some of its smaller vehicles that haven't seen strong sales.

The company said it plans to halt production of the Chevrolet Cruze at the Lordstown plant in March. In Detroit, it plans to halt production of the Buick LaCrosse and Chevrolet Volt in March and the Cadillac CT6 and Chevrolet Impala in June. In Ontario, it plans to halt production of the Chevrolet Impala and Cadillac XTS by the final quarter of 2019.

"These tend to be the lower-margin vehicles," GM's Chief Financial Officer Dhivya Suryadevara told reporters.

The company says 5,901 hourly employees and 804 salaried employees work at these plants.

"We are announcing the cessation of certain products resulting in a number of plants being without allocated volume to produce," GM spokesperson Julie Huston-Rough told NPR. She added that shutting down or closing a plant is an issue that must be discussed in negotiations with the United Auto Workers.

GM Chairman and CEO Mary Barra said the company is aiming to cut executive positions by 25 percent, as part of its overall push to cut it workforce. "We will achieve this through a combination of voluntary and involuntary programs," she said.

GM added that it expects to save some $6 billion by the end of 2020.

"The UAW and our members will confront this decision by GM through every legal, contractual and collective bargaining avenue open to our membership," the union said in a statement.

President Trump told reporters, "We don't like it, I believe they'll be opening up something else." He added that he's "not happy" about the announcement.

The communities impacted by the decision are digesting the news.

"They told me straight up there's nothing we can do," Ontario Premier Doug Ford told lawmakers, according to CBC. He called the decision "absolutely devastating," and the broadcaster reported that thousands of workers at the Ontario plant stopped working Monday.

As Michigan Radio reported, Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan called the news "troubling" and said that the union and local officials are "working together to come up with a solution that works for GM and the employees."

Ohio politicians are also responding to the announcement. Arno Hill, the mayor of Lordstown, told NPR that he received a call from GM to inform him about five minutes before the news was released to the public. The Lordstown plant makes the Chevy Cruze.

"Everybody's very downhearted," he said. "They know they're making a great product. ... but they also realize that the car is not selling, and, you know, the key is to get another product for this plant."

"GM owes the community answers on how the rest of the supply chain will be impacted and what consequences its disastrous decision will have on the Mahoning Valley and our state," Ohio Sen. Sherrod Brown said in a statement. Ohio Gov. John Kasich called it "painful to see this happen to the plant's workers," noting the plant had been working with GM for more than 50 years.

Barra explained that GM is restructuring now, "while the company and the economy are strong, to stay in front of a fast-changing market."

That sentiment, as NPR's Jim Zarroli reported, is paired with a widespread expectation that the economy will slow down next year. He adds that there are also big questions about trade and rising interest rates.

"So there are just a lot of questions about where the market is going, whether sales have peaked," Jim reported. "I think GM is just trying to sort of get ahead of what it sees as an inevitable downturn."

Family of Emantic "EJ" Bradford Jr. Demands Video Release After Alabama Mall Shooting Death

The family of Emantic "EJ" Bradford Jr., who died Thanksgiving night after he was shot by a police officer working security at an Alabama mall, is calling on the Hoover Police Department to release the mall video, witness videos and body camera footage of Bradford's death.

Initially, officials said Bradford was engaged in a fight with an 18-year-old at the Riverchase Galleria Mall in Hoover, Ala. when he pulled out a gun and shot the teen. A 12-year-old bystander also was wounded that night. That night, police and city officials hailed the quick response as "heroic."

But officials later retracted the statement, saying it was "highly unlikely" Bradford had fired the shots that injured two people.

In a statement early Monday, city and police officials said they can "say with certainty Mr. Bradford brandished a gun during the seconds following the gunshots, which instantly heightened the sense of threat to approaching police officers responding to the chaotic scene." Body camera and other available video was turned over to the Jefferson County Sheriff's Department as part of the investigation, and the evidence is now with the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency.

"We extend sympathy to the family of Emantic J. Bradford of Hueytown, who was shot and killed during Hoover Police efforts to secure the scene in the seconds following the original altercation and shooting. The loss of human life is a tragedy under any circumstances," the statement continued.

Crump says several witnesses have come forward since the shooting to say the police officer who killed Bradford didn't give any verbal commands to Bradford before shooting him in the face.

Officials also say the shooter could still be at large. Crump says police offered Bradford no medical assistance after the shooting. Family members were tearful at the news conference at Birmingham's Kelly Ingram Park. Several clutched photos of Bradford. At one point, Bradford's grandmother Althea Pipkin collapsed and was escorted away as she sobbed over her grandson's killing.

Crump and the family say it's just another instance of a black man dying at the hands of police. Crump has represented other black men who were killed by police or others, including Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown.

The officer who shot Bradford has since been placed on administrative leave. His name has not been released.

Neither the State Bureau of Investigations, which is handling the investigation, nor Hoover police officials have responded to requests for further comment.

Crump says the family's communication with the police department has been minimal. He says as of Sunday, the family still had not been contacted by Hoover police about Bradford's death. Instead, he says the Bradford family found out about his death through social media.

On Saturday, protesters walked through the mall chanting "Say his name — EJ" and carrying signs that read "Justice for E.J." and "Hoover PD Lied."

E.J. Bradford Sr., who is a retired Birmingham jail employee, says he considers others in the law enforcement community as family. But he is angered by Hoover's quick conclusion to label his son the killer. Bradford Sr. says he called Hoover police at 12:30 a.m. Friday but was told they would call him back. He says they did not call him before they gave a media briefing and that he has yet to receive a call.

"My son is gone. I can't get him back. ... You vilified my son," Bradford Sr. said Sunday.

April Pipkins, Bradford's mother, says Thanksgiving will never be the same again. Other family members joined Pipkins at the news conference. One of them was Clemon Brown, who is Bradford's younger brother. Brown says he blames the media for going with early police accounts.

"EJ was not that kind of guy at all," Brown says. "He was very respectful to his mother [and] his father."

The family says Bradford had been taking care of his father, who has cancer. Crump says the family is unsure as to whether it can have an open casket funeral because the police officer shot Bradford in the face. Law enforcement has not yet released any details about the fatal shooting. Crump says in the meantime, they are going to explore every possible legal avenue available on the state and federal level.

"What the family wants most is justice," Crump says.

Rihanna Posts Cryptic Message After Chris Brown Flirts With Her On Social Media

It was reported that just recently Rihanna posted a very sensual picture of herself while wearing a piece of lingerie from her Savage X Fenty line. She was topless. Tons of fans let her know that she’s gorgeous and one of those fans was her ex, Chris Brown.

As a response to Rihanna’s pic, Chris posted, ‘😳.’Meek Mill replied as well, commenting, ‘🏆🏆🏆🏆’

After that Rihanna posted a Bible quote, which was also accompanied by an inspiring message. This was posted on her Instagram Story, yesterday, November 25 and people claim that the message might be targeted at her ex, Chris Bworn. Here it is:

‘There may be times when it seems that you cannot go forward, but at least you do not have to go backward,’ the message read.

It continued and said ‘You may not know how to forge ahead, but you can stand firmly on what you know of God.’

Rihanna’s post did not stop there, and it continued with the following words:

‘Instead of passively yielding to the enemy, you can say ‘This is the ground I have gained, and I’m not giving it up, devil. You are not driving me back into the hole that God pulled me out of. I am going to stand strong in the power of God until He delivers me.”

Rihanna did not mention Chris there, but her fans seem to believes that it’s definitely about him.

Even if these two broke up a long time ago, sources claimed that she’s still the love of his life and he would do anything to get her back.

Shawn Mendes Opens Up About Rumors Surrounding His Sexuality – Again

Ever since Shawn Mendes became famous as a pop singer and performer, fans have wondered if he was secretly gay. Even though he has denied the rumors repeatedly, he opened up about it once again, because the speculation just won’t end.

On social media, fans of his love to point out the way in which he appears feminine, in both mannerisms and gestures, suggesting that his way of speaking is the tell-tale sign of his secret sexuality.

During a chat with reporters from Rolling Stone, the singer opened up about his relationships, denying, once again, that he’s a gay man. According to Mendes, the way people speculate about him makes it tough for others who are struggling with their sexuality.

The singer said, “I thought, ‘You f*cking guys are so lucky I’m not actually gay and terrified of coming out,” before going on to point out several of the comments online. He has to admit, however, the comments on Instagram and Twitter get to him sometimes.

He added that if his fans really liked him and his music, it wouldn’t matter if he were gay or not. Back in 2016, Mendes addressed the rumors, stating that his sexuality shouldn’t be a topic of discussion, period.

Moreover, Shawn said he didn’t feel proud of the fact that he needs to be seen out in public with women to prove to everyone he’s not gay. Mendes joked that he felt terrified after Taylor Swift posted a video showing her putting eye makeup on him, even though he agreed to it.

Shawn is just “feminine,” as he put it, and that’s alright, that’s the person who he is and it’s what makes him special as an individual. Previously, fans believed he was dating Hailey Baldwin after appearing on the red carpet with her.

However, just a month later, she got engaged to Justin Bieber, effectively ending those rumors. Shawn explained that he reached out to her after the news of their coupling, even though she unfollowed him. To his fans, it seemed like Shawn was really interested in Hailey, but it was unreciprocated.

Michelle Obama's Memoir Sold Over 1.4 Million Copies in Its First Week

Former Forever First Lady. Style Icon. Mother. Barack Obama's Wife. Author. Michelle Obama is a lot of things, and with the release of her new memoir Becoming, the multi-hyphenate will soon add "New York Times Bestseller" to her lengthy resume. Becoming sold 750,000 copies on its first day and, according to The Associated Press, raked in more than 1.4 million copies in its first week.

Released on November 13, Michelle Obama's Becoming has become one of the fastest-selling memoirs of 2018, outselling memoirs like Hillary Clinton's latest What Happened (300,000 first-week sales) and Bob Woodward's White House tell-all Fear: Trump in the White House, which sold 1.1 million copies during its first week in September. Becoming is also rumored to have outsold Donald Trump's 1987 memoir The Art of the Deal.

Crown Publishing revealed to The Associated Press that Becoming currently holds the No. 1 spot for adult non-fiction in Germany, France, Denmark, Holland, Spain, and more. Just days after its release, Barnes and Noble announced that Becoming had the best debut of any book released in 2018 since Harper Lee's 2015 novel Go Set a Watchman.

“We knew Becoming was going to be one of the biggest books of the year, but it has now officially had the best first week of sales of any book in 2018, and is among the fastest sellers in Barnes & Noble history,” said Liz Harwell, senior director of merchandising, trade books at Barnes & Noble. “This is definitely the must-have book of the holiday season.”

Obama is currently bringing her book on tour, hitting major cities across the states from her hometown Chicago to Brooklyn, NY, Washington, D.C, Philadelphia, PA, and more. At her latest stop in Washington, D.C, Barack Obama surprised his wife onstage and opened up about the summer he finally met her.

"The thing that I remember during that summer as we became friends, before she finally relented to a date, was she was one of a kind," he said. "I hadn't met somebody who was that strong and that honest—somebody who I just felt was a rock, [she] was somebody who I knew at that point I would always be able to count on, and someone who that if she was the mother of my children I knew my children would turn out extraordinary."

NASA Probe Lands Safely On Martian Surface

NASA's InSight probe landed successfully on Mars Monday shortly before 3 p.m. ET.

Two tiny spacecraft that flew with the lander to Mars were able to relay telemetry from the probe as it descended to the surface. As a result, mission managers knew immediately that the landing had worked. Unsurprisingly, the control room at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., erupted in cheers.

In the coming days, mission managers will be assessing the health of the probe after its 300 million-mile trip. It will be some weeks before all of InSight's scientific instruments are deployed, and six months or more before the first scientific results are in.

Landing on Mars is no simple task. InSight had to slow down from 12,300 mph as it entered the top of the Martian atmosphere. It reached a complete stop on the ground 6 1/2 minutes later.

"The landing is all completely automatic and autonomous," says Rob Grover, leader of the Entry, Descent and Landing team at JPL. "We have no ability to actually, kind of, fly the lander to the surface."

The reason real-time control isn't possible is that it takes a radio signal approximately eight minutes to travel from Earth to Mars. Because the entire landing sequence takes only 6 1/2 minutes, the lander would already be on the ground by the time a signal from Earth arrived.

Here's how it happened: About 90 minutes before atmosphere entry, mission managers sent the latest tracking information to the probe, so it knew where it was and how fast it was traveling.

Then, the probe got rid of what's called the cruise stage. That's a part of the spacecraft needed only while InSight is traveling from Earth to Mars.

"We eject that from the vehicle seven minutes before we're going to hit the top of the atmosphere," Grover says.

After that, the spacecraft turned, so its heat shield was pointing in the right direction.

As the probe descended, the air molecules that make up the Martian atmosphere struck the heat shield, causing the shield to heat up and the craft to slow down.

"Believe it or not, 99 percent of the energy that we have coming in from space is actually bled off by the atmosphere," Grover says.

The heat shield did its thing for about 3 1/2 minutes, then the parachute deployed. At that point, the probe was still traveling faster than the speed of sound, so InSight had a special parachute designed for supersonic speeds.

Finally, the probe cut loose the parachute and landed using rockets.

"The whole descent under rocket power takes about 40 seconds or so," Grover says. "We have 12 small descent engines grouped around the bottom of the lander that are providing the thrust to slow us down the final kilometer."

Even though they couldn't do anything to help InSight as it descended, mission managers were able to watch it land, thanks to a pair of small spacecraft known as MarCO.

The MarCO spacecraft hitched a ride with InSight.

"It's about the size of a cereal box," says Anne Marinan, a systems engineer on the team that's in charge of MarCO. It is one of a new generation of really small satellites called cubesats.

"Cubesats were originally developed as a way to easily give students, essentially, access to space," Marinan says.

Cubesats are now being used at NASA to test new technologies. In MarCO's case, the new technology is communications equipment that will relay telemetry data from InSight to Earth.

InSight landed on what seems to be a very boring part of Mars, known as Elysium Planitia. Mission managers wanted a boring spot — they want the probe to sit quietly. Its two primary instruments, a sensitive seismometer and an underground temperature probe, will be measuring tiny fluctuations in the planet's interior.

To make accurate measurements, those instruments shouldn't be disturbed. If they work properly, scientists should get a better sense of the interior structure of the Red Planet.

The mission is expected to last about two Earth years.

Meek Mill Concert Shooting Victims’ Families Demand $6 Million to Settle Wrongful Death Lawsuits

The families of the two men killed during a shooting outside Meek Mill’s concert are now demanding $6,000,000 to settle the lawsuits against the rapper.

On November 21, court documents were filed by the estates for Jaquan Graves and Travis Ward in which they explained they are willing to settle their separate cases against Meek.

Both claim to be willing to accept $3 million each to bring an end to the cases they brought against Meek, for a grand total of $6 million both families are seeking.

Meek has yet to file a response to their offer of compromise.

Last year, the rapper was sued by the estate of Jaquan Graves for wrongful death after Graves was shot and killed outside Meek’s 2016 concert in Connecticut while he was leaving the show.

Meek was also hit with a separate lawsuit by the estate of Travis Ward, who was killed during the shooting outside the venue.

Both lawsuits accused Meek, along with the Oakdale Musical Theatre Company and Live Nation, of being negligent in handing security of the concert. The suit also pointed to Meek’s lyrics claiming they incite violence and described how Meek’s concert have had shootings in the past.

Meek has denied all allegations that he had any role in contributing to the shooting, saying it was out of his control and he could not have known the shooting was going to happen.

Cardi B's Private Jet Forced to Make Emergency Landing in Chicago After WGCI Big Jam Performance

Days after Cardi B headlined a superstar bill of artists at Chicago's United Center for WGCI's Big Jam on Saturday night, the rapper was forced to return to the Windy City early Monday (Nov. 26) when her private jet en route from Los Angeles to New York made an emergency landing in Chicago due to a sick passenger onboard.

According to TMZ, a private flight Bardi was on from LA had to make an emergency landing when one of the passengers -- reportedly not a member of Cardi B's crew -- required medical attention. "I'm stuck in Chicago," Cardi said on her Instagram stories (watch below). "We had to do an emergency landing in Chicago. Let me tell you something ... I'm not taking no more fucking jets. I don't give a fuck, bro. These type of shits don't happen on Delta."

On Saturday, however, the "Bodak Yellow" artist was happy to be in Chi-Town, making her grand entrance to the roar of the crowd wearing a glitzy Peter Pan-inspired lime-green dress. She also rocked freshly dyed green hair to complete the outfit. The 26-year-old powered through some trouble mid-performance, as she kicked off her bothersome heels during "Ring" and finished off her lively set barefoot.
