'The Real’ Canceled After Firing Tamar Braxton? Has Tamar Gotten REVENGE?


Oh? ‘The Real’ Canceled After Firing Tamar Braxton? Has Tamar Gotten REVENGE?
Is The Real really facing cancellation after firing Tamar Braxton from the daytime talk show earlier this year?
Rumors began to swirl that The Real could be on the verge of being pulled from Fox’s daytime line-up after The Wrap claimed that the Season 3 premiere, the first in the show’s history not to feature Braxton on the hosting panel, debuted to less than stellar ratings and now Tamera Mowry-Housley is hitting back.
The site recently claimed that the Season 3 premiere debuted to a 0.9 rating/3 share, which the site described as being “disheartening,” while Broadcasting Cable revealed that the show suffered a 22 percent decrease in viewers when compared to the Season 2 premiere last year.

“[The Real] showed the largest declines of any talkers that haven’t already been canceled,” Broadcasting Cable confirmed of the first batch of shows to air in the wake of Tamar’s departure, which got fans speculating that the series could be in danger of cancelation.
But as rumors swirl suggesting that The Real could potentially be canceled, Tamera is now shutting down the cancellation accusations and hitting back at fans on social media.
The Shade Room reported that Mowry-Housley, who’s reportedly not exactly been seeing eye-to-eye with Braxton since the left the show back in May, hit back at Instagram users who claimed that The Real was about to be canceled in the wake of Tamar’s departure.
 Seems that [Tamar Braxton] is missed more than they expected on the real with ratings at a 22% decline.While there’s no way to prove that Tamar’s firing is behind the alleged ratings decline, the supposed fall in viewership was reported by TV sites just days after Braxton’s legions of fans threatened to boycott Season 3 because of the recent drama that surrounded Tamar’s shocking firing back in May.
A number of social media users and Tamar fans took to Twitter to make it pretty clear that they wouldn’t be tuning in ahead of The Real’s September 13 premiere, slamming the show alongside the hashtag #BoycottTheReal amid reports suggesting Tamar was locked in a pretty nasty feud with her former co-stars.

As reported by BET, Tamar appeared to make it pretty clear that she’s no longer on friendly terms with Tamera and fellow The Real co-hosts Adrienne Bailon, Loni Love and Jeannie Mai, slamming her seemingly now former friends on Twitter and alluding to a feud.
After Tamera claimed in an August Periscope chat with fans that things were still good between herself and Braxton following Tamar’s firing, the Braxton Family Values star then made it pretty clear that that’s not exactly the case, seemingly confirming a feud.
“I wish that I would stop being brought up since I was so BAD,” Tamar hit back after Mowry-Housley dispelled the feud rumors via Periscope. “I’ve never said anything bad nor will I,” continued Braxton in a slew of deleted tweets, before Tamar then made it clear that she hasn’t spoken to any of her former co-stars in recent months.
“No shade… but don’t believe the hype!” Braxton continued amid the alleged feud. “I haven’t spoken to [anyone]… real friends don’t need press.”
After Tamar went off on her former friends on social media, a fan then quizzed Braxton on why Mowry-Housley and Bailon attended her son Logan’s third birthday party earlier this year, to which Tamar replied by suggesting that the Adrienne and Tamera only showed their faces to dispel feud rumors.

“They came, took [pics] and left,” Braxton claimed of her former The Real co-hosts, adding that Adrienne and Tamera came to “save their a***s” as rumors of a feud swirled between the former friends.

What do you think of Tamera Mowry-Housley hitting back at fans claiming The Real could be facing cancellation following Tamar Braxton’s firing?

Tamar SPEAKS on her Relationship with her former co-hosts from 'The Real'



Tamar Braxton tells TRUTH Teas About Her Relationship With “The Real” Co-Hosts
Tamar Braxton and the drama from “The Real.” continues. With Tamar’s departure, fans are anxious to find out who will replace her and they also are still eager to find out if Tay Tay is friends with any of the ladies on the show.

Well, Tamar hit her Twitter last night to give an update on who she’s still cool with. And apparently, Tamar is NOT cool with Tamera Mowry-Housely, although it seemed Tamera was the only one she was still cool with when everything started to go down.

So here’s what set the “Braxton Family Values” star off.
Tamera hopped on Periscope recently for a Q&A with fans when one fan asked Tamera if she and Tamar are still cool. Tamera responded saying “Absolutely,” but apparently Tamar feels differently. It's unclear when the actual Periscope footage was filmed.

Tay Tay hopped on Twitter to clear things up and to express her displeasure with co-host Loni Love speaking about her in a recent interview with Tom Joyner.

Peep her tweets (read from the bottom up):
As for the press she’s referring to, it seems she’s talking about Loni’s radio interview with Tom Joyner. In the interview, Loni said:
“Let me say this about season three of ‘The Real’… We wanna thank the fans for supporting us. Season three is going to be phenomenal. I know there are a lot of changes that are happening. Warner Brothers is making the decision of what they want to do as far as a co-host. I believe it’ll be guest co-hosts.”
She then asked fans to send some love to Tamera, Adrienne Bailon and Jeannie Mai because it has been a rough summer for them as Tamar’s Tamartian friends have been going in on them on social media. She continued,

“It’s been a hard summer for them. Send some love because it’s been hard. It’s totally different for all of us because we were such a good unit. Nobody knew about it [Tamar getting fired]. It was nobody’s fault. I want the fans to understand that. I think a lot of people are confused about what happened. We don’t know. I do know there has been a lot of abuse towards my co-hosts. We need to stop.”

Kyrie Irving and Andrea Wilson of Texas, have a 6 month old daughter. Roughly three months ago, while Kyrie was still dating Kehlani, Andrea and Kehlani got into a social media back-and-forth over Kyrie allegedly not seeing his daughter in months.  However, things seemed to have changed because over Father’s Day Weekend, the same weekend Kyrie became an NBA Champ, Andrea took to social media to wish her ex a Happy Father’s Day and express her appreciation.

THIS JUST IN! Chicago Bulls Trade Derrick Rose To The New York Knicks
Derrick Rose is set to join the New York Knicks after being traded from the Chicago Bulls, sources tell ESPN.
A source close to Derrick says the Chicago native was very emotional about leaving his hometown team, which drafted him No. 1 overall in 2008, due to all his great memories there, but he’s looking forward to the big stage of New York.

More from  ESPN:The Knicks are trading center Robin Lopez, guard Jose Calderon and guard Jerian Grant to Chicago, which is shipping guard Justin Holiday, Rose and a 2017 second-round pick back to New York, sources said. ESPN reported last week that the Knicks had internal discussions recently about trading for Rose, the NBA MVP for the 2010-11 season.

Both Knicks coach Jeff Hornacek and general manager Steve Mills had said that the team was interested in upgrading their point guard position in the offseason.


Over the past four years, the six-year veteran has appeared in just 50 percent of the Bulls’ regular-season games, because of various injuries – including two major knee surgeries. He is owed $21.3 million in the final year of his contract, and will be a free agent after the 2016-17 season.

Rep. Chaka Fattah Convicted On Racketeering Charges In Philadelphia
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — A veteran Pennsylvania congressman was convicted Tuesday in a racketeering case that largely centered on various efforts to repay an illegal $1 million campaign loan related to his unsuccessful 2007 mayoral bid.
U.S. Rep. Chaka Fattah was found guilty of all counts against him, including racketeering, fraud and money laundering. His lawyers had argued that the schemes were engineered without Fattah’s knowledge by two political consultants who pleaded guilty in the case.
The 59-year-old Democrat had been in Congress since 1995 and served on the powerful House Appropriations Committee. But he lost the April primary and his bid for his 12th term. His current term ends Jan. 2.
Fattah had little reaction to the verdict, but he kept a smile on his face as he conferred with his lawyers afterward.
He will remain free on bail. A judge set sentencing for Oct. 4.
Fattah told reporters as he was leaving the courtroom: “Well, it’s a tough day, but I do want to thank the jurors for their service.” He said he will confer with his lawyers on the next step.
Prosecutors said Fattah routed federal grant money and nonprofit funds through his consultants to pay back the illegal loan.

His wife, Philadelphia TV news anchor Renee Chenault-Fattah, took a leave after her husband’s indictment and then quit in February. She was cited in the case over the sham sale of her Porsche, which prosecutors said was a bribe. But she was never charged with any wrongdoing, and she said the sale was legitimate.
In a related case, his son, Chaka “Chip” Fattah Jr., was convicted on charges of bank and tax fraud and sentenced in February to five years in prison. A jury found he took part in a scheme as a subcontractor to defraud the Philadelphia school district.
Justice Department lawyer Jonathan Kravis said in his closing argument that Chaka Fattah Sr. used federal grants and nonprofit funds to enrich his family and friends.

Defense lawyers acknowledged Fattah might have gotten himself in financial trouble after a costly mayoral bid, but they said any help from friends amounted to gifts, not bribes.
Many of them came from co-defendant Herbert Vederman, a wealthy friend who had dreams of scoring an ambassadorship. U.S. Sen. Bob Casey, a Democrat, testified that he never took the pitch from Fattah too seriously, even though Fattah once bent the president’s ear about it. Democrat Ed Rendell, a former mayor and governor, was called to defend Vederman, his former deputy mayor. He said Vederman was qualified for the job and accused prosecutors of cynically misreading the help he lent Fattah.

Vederman helped support Fattah’s South African nanny and paid $18,000 for a Porsche owned by Fattah’s TV anchor wife.
“The nanny, the Porsche and the Poconos, they weren’t part of a bribery scheme,” Fattah lawyer Samuel Silver argued in closings. “Those were all overreaches by the prosecution.”

The campaign loan was just one of several schemes prosecutors outlined during the trial. They say Fattah was aided in his endeavors by current and former staffers who ran his district office or the nonprofits; by Vederman, who now lives in Palm Beach, Florida; and by political consultants Greg Naylor and Thomas Lindenfeld, who pleaded guilty.
The other co-defendants are Bonnie Bowser, of Philadelphia, who ran his district office; Karen Nicholas, of Williamstown, New Jersey, who ran the education nonprofit 
Fattah stepped down as the top Democrat on the Appropriations subcommittee on commerce, justice and science when he was indicted in July 2015.

Under the House’s Code of Conduct, a lawmaker who is convicted is not to vote in committee or in the full House if the punishment for his conviction may be two or more years’ imprisonment.
Prior to Fattah’s conviction, the House Ethics committee had impaneled an investigative subcommittee and, at the request of the Justice Department, deferred action.
A senior Democratic aide said it would not be unusual for Justice to renew that request of the Ethics panel to defer action until appeals are over.

The aide was not authorized to speak publicly and spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity to discuss the possible steps by Ethics and Justice.

Man Claims He Was Omar Mateen’s Gay Lover says ‘He Did It For Revenge’ Against Latino Men
The alleged male lover of Orlando nightclub gunman Omar Mateen claims he did the shooting as “revenge” against Latino men.
The man, who spoke to Univision on the condition of anonymity, said Mateen held a grudge against Latino men he met at the gay nightclub Pulse because he felt used by them.
“I’ve cried like you have no idea. But the thing that makes me want to tell the truth is that he didn’t do it for terrorism. In my opinion he did it for revenge,” the man who said he was Mateen’s lover for two months told Univision.

The man told Univision that the FBI has interviewed him three times about Mateen. Univision reported that FBI said they have met with the man.
“He adored Latinos, gay Latinos, with brown skin, but he felt rejected. He felt used by them,” the man said. “There were moments in the Pulse nightclub that made him feel really bad. Guys used him. That really affected him.”
The man claimed that Mateen was upset after having a sexual encounter with two Puerto Rican men after one of them revealed he was HIV positive.
“He was terrified that he was infected,” the man told Univision. “I asked him, ‘Did you do a test?’ Yes. He went to the pharmacy and did the test … it came out negative, but it doesn’t come out right away. It takes four, five months.

“When I asked him what he was going to do now, his answer was, ‘I’m going to make them pay for what they did to me.’”
The called Mateen a “very sweet guy” and said he met him last year through a gay dating app.
The Los Angeles Times previously reported that Mateen used gay dating apps. He also frequented the Pulse nightclub before killing 49 people more than one week ago.

The man claims he and Mateen met around 20 times, with the last meeting taking place in December. He said Mateen never revealed his name to him, but told him that he was 35 and married with a son. He told Univision that he believed Mateen’s wife knew that he went to gay bars and that his marriage was to hide the fact that he was “100 percent” gay.
It was reported that on the night of the shooting Mateen went into the club and received a wristband and left. He then returned nearly two hours later to begin his attack.
Mateen pledged allegiance to the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria during the attack on Facebook and 911 calls.
The FBI previously investigated him for possible terrorist ties but those investigations were closed due to lack of evidence.

Toya Wright Covers KONTROL Magazine’s ‘For The Love Of Summer’ Issue
Toya Wright strikes a fierce pose in a black and white pantsuit, as she covers KONTROL magazine’s “For the Love of Summer’ issue.

As the owner of Garb Boutique in New Orleans and Garb Shoetique in Atlanta, Toya dishes on why she won’t be expanding the stores beyond the two locations, and also discusses her relationship status with her estranged husband, Memphitz, who she stars alongside on Marriage Boot Camp: Reality Stars.

Read a couple excerpts here:

On why she won’t be taking her boutiques to other cities:
It’s not really an urban boutique. We have trendy things like the latest fashion. We sell accessories, we sell shoes, I would say the latest fashion trends. I thought about expanding the location to different cities before, but I mean everybody [has] a boutique now. I still have love for being a boutique owner, and I’m always going to have my New Orleans location and Atlanta location. But, I don’t think I want to take it to different cities anymore. I’d rather just keep it online because we have a nice online presence. My New Orleans boutique is kind of like a tourist stop, so I’ll just keep it there. Boutiques are on every corner now. So, I don’t think that would be a smart business move.

On her relationship status with Memphitz:

No Memphitz and I are not together…we’re still friends and cool, but we are both moving on with our lives…people don’t realize  it, but we filmed the show [Marriage Boot Camp] before we went on Untying The Knot so we weren’t dealing with our issues after separating everything…I definitely learned a lot from being there and it made me realize I can get through anything…we—well I—went into it open-minded and was willing to give it a try, thinking maybe it could help us out.

My family and I have been trying to warn Carl for years about Black Widow Evelyn!! Between helping Antoine go broke after his one-hundred million dollar salary, ruining Chad’s career and now with Carl’s career over…this woman is TOXIC!!! We knew this would happen, which is why he hasn’t married her yet, not to mention she asked for a ridiculous amount on the pre-nup! Carl isn’t crazy, he stopped that wedding right away. They were supposed to get married December 2014 but that didn’t happen because of that pre-nup!
Evelyn is hungry for money! Trying to keep up appearances and her lifestyle. This would have never happened to our cousin if this THOTTY GOLD DIGGERY WITCH hadn’t gotten her claws into him.
