#RHoA: Producers want to Boot Porsha for Marlo?
Producers Allegedly Considering Marlo Hampton As Replacement!

Porsha Williams has gone from being a fan favorite to having close to no friends on “Real Housewives of Atlanta.” The reality star was able to keep her peach for season ten but sources say that might not be the case for the next installment.

Porsha Williams and Phaedra Parks were two peas in a pod last year up until the reunion show when it was revealed that Parks fed Williams a nasty rumor. The “he-say she-say” put Kandi Burruss at the center of drama where Porsha claims she and Todd planned to drug her and take her to their sex dungeon.
Bravo fired Phaedra and Porsha was left on the show after saying that she was the puppet in Phaedra’s scheme.
Although Porsha has apologized, Kandi has not come around to being her friend again.

When Nene Leakes returned, she kicked off the season with drama between her and Porsha. In the past few episodes, it seems like the Go Naked hair ambassador aren’t friends with any of her co-stars other than Sheree Whitfield and Kim Zolciak.

The fact that Porsha has no relationship drama and is only close to her sister doesn’t make for a good story line. Fans can tell that the others are only playing nice with Williams because she’s a part of the show.
Sources say that producers may be eyeing a replacement for the 36-year-old and the woman could be Marlo Hampton.

Hampton has been a friend of the show for many seasons but has never been given an official peach.
Hampton is very close to Nene who has the ear of one of the executive producers, Andy Cohen. If she wanted to, Leakes could put in a good word for Marlo to join the cast.

Marlo has also been a fan favorite and she is no stranger to bringing the theatrics that makes “RHOA” so enjoyable to watch.

Would you still watch if Porsha Williams was given the boot?

#HIPHOPNEWS: Birdman Hit With $12 Million Foreclosure Lawsuit
Birdman’s legal troubles continue to mount as the Cash Money boss faces a $12 million foreclosure lawsuit in Miami.
The complaint, which also includes CM Spirits LLC and Criteria Operations LLC, was brought on by Ellington Management Group Transfer Agent on Nov. 30, according to The South Florida Business Journal. It targets Baby’s 19,970-square-foot Miami Beach mansion and a 26,040-square foot North Miami office building, which houses Baby’s Hit Factory Criteria Recording Studios.

Chemtov Mortgage Group Corp. initiated the $12 million mortgage back in 2015 with a “full guarantee of $12 million against Williams and a limited guaranty of $3 million with Criteria Operations,” according to the report. The loan has since been signed over to others, most recently to EMG. But financial woes appear to have fallen on Birdman and his companies, which allegedly defaulted on the mortgage in February of this year. Now, they allegedly owe $12 million in principal, plus interest.

The No. 1 Stunna has been trying to sell the lavish mansion, which he acquired in 2012 for $14.5 million, since June. He first listed it for sale at $20 million, but the asking price has since gone down to $16.9 million. Also in 2012, Birdman’s companies acquired the office building in question for $1.7 million.

Recently, Rick Ross used this as ammo in his ongoing feud with the Cash Money boss. “You ain’t have no money in six-seven years, ni**a,” said Rozay. “You should have came and borrowed some from Rozay. Now you want to fuck that old lady life up too. You probably borrowing some money from her. I might go buy that house on the water. Just to keep my boat at it. I won’t even stay there, that shit is too small.”

This is one of several legal issues for the Big Tymer. His Cash Money imprint is also being sued by Lil Wayne for $51 million and earlier this year, Jas Prince sued the label over Drake’s earnings. Last year, Cash Money was sued over uncleared samples and ordered to pay Jay Sean $1.1 million in royalties in a separate case.

Solange Knowles Reveals She’s Battling An Autonomic Disorder
Solange Knowles Opens Up About Her Health. You never know what someone is going through….
Solange Knowles took to social media on Wednesday and revealed she will not be performing at Afro Punk in South Africa on New Year’s Eve because she has been quietly battling an Autonomic Disorder for the past five months.

In her lengthy post, Solo said “It’s been a journey that has not been easy on me. Sometimes I feel cool, and other times not so cool at all.”

Via Healthline.com: Autonomic dysfunction can affect a small part of the ANS or the entire ANS. Some symptoms that may indicate the presence of an autonomic nerve disorder include: dizziness and fainting upon standing up, or orthostatic hypotension. an inability to alter heart rate with exercise, or exercise intolerance.

Read Solange’s full post below.

Wrote, deleted and re wrote this like 5 times…
Still not sure what exactly or how much I want to share…
However it’s so important to me for the people in South Africa, a place that has tremendous meaning to me and that has given me SO SO MUCH, to know why I won’t be performing at Afro Punk this NYE.
The past five months I have been quietly treating, and working through an Autonomic Disorder. It been a journey that hasn’t been easy on me…

Sometimes I feel cool, and other times not so cool at all.
It’s a complicated diagnoses , and I’m still learning so much myself, but right now, my doctors are not clearing me for such an extended lengthy flight, and doing a rigorous show right after.
I can’t put into words how saddened and sorry I am that I am unable to perform for you guys this NYE, there is simply no other place I wanted to be than there with my family to bring in 2018 with you…….but I give you my ABSOLUTE WORD I will come back with AfroPunk and deliver this performance…..as it is so extremely important to me to connect with the people who have so closely inspired me in so many ways.

I can’t thank Afro Punk enough for their support, and to all of the other festivals this past summer/fall who have known about my health, kept it confidential, and gone out of their way to make me feel supported while doing these shows.
As a part of the self care that I’ve tried to encourage this past year, it needs to start with myself, and I’m looking forward to doing a better job of this 2018.
This past year has been one of the most fulfilling of my life…

Performing this record and experiencing the energy exchange with you guys has been astounding, and I’m so excited about continuing to do the work I feel so absolutely humbled and appreciative to be doing next year. It gives me life.

Sending up prayers for Solange Knowles.


Chrissy Teigen’s Plane Tweets Have Finally Reached A Happy Ending
For those out of the loop, Teigen and Legend boarded a flight Tuesday afternoon, which was set to fly from Los Angeles to Tokyo. However, their plane was turned around four hours into their travel time after the airline (they flew All Nippon Airways, aka ANA) discovered someone was on board the wrong flight. Of course, the Cravings author live-tweeted the frustrating event — and her dramatic adventure went viral almost immediately.
According to a statement from ANA received by CNN, "The cabin crew notified the pilot that one of the passengers boarded the incorrect flight, and the pilot in command made the decision to return to the originating airport. We take great pride providing exemplary customer service, and on this flight we failed to do so."

If anyone was concerned (like Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Lisa Rinna), you can rest easy in knowing that Teigen and Legend arrived safely and are ready to begin their New Year's celebration, albeit not exactly how they expected. (Also, if anyone can get her a Nintendo charger, you'd be helping her out majorly.)
As someone who has dealt with more than her fair share of haters, in this instance, a lot of people are overjoyed for Teigen's Tokyo update. Her fans may even be more excited for her than when she gave birth to Luna. Yes, it's that big of a deal. Here's a look at the love she's receiving.

The Daily Buzz For Dec 27 ☕📰☕


Eminem Covers Interview Magazine, Explains Why He Avoids The Spotlight
Eminem has a “come as you are” moment as he covers Interview magazine. The American rapper promotes his ninth studio album, Revival. Stylist Alastair McKimm respects Eminem’s low-key style for his Interview shoot. Connecting with photographer Craig McDean, Eminem wears simple pieces from brands such as Armani Exchange and Reigning Champ. Ready for an informal conversation, Eminem chats with longtime friend Elton John.

Eminem talks to John about purposefully living his life outside of the spotlight.  I studied Dre a lot. I don’t know if you’d call it a mantra or what, but he believed that if you never go away, it’s hard for someone to miss you, says Eminem. And I realize that some people see going away as, Oh, he’s irrelevant now, but I feel like if I don’t go away, I get sick of myself. It’s never been my thing to be in the spotlight all the time. Read more on InterviewMagazine.com.


#RHoA: Eva Marcille is Engaged See the ROCK!
“The Real Housewives of Atlanta” star Eva Marcille is engaged!

On Monday, Eva announced that boyfriend Michael Sterling popped the question. She posted a pic of her engagement ring, writing on Instagram, “I said yes!!!! 💍.”
Along with the engagement, Eva and Michael are also expecting a baby boy. Last month, she shared with People magazine, “I said, ‘Marley, would you like to have a little brother or sister?’ And she said, ‘Yes, Mom, but you know what? Maybe a baby brother. Make it a brother.”
Eva, who is also mom to daughter Marley Rae, 3½, added, “I thought that was adorable, but at the time, I had no idea what I was having, so my fear [about] this extremely expressive and outgoing young girl [was] if this baby came out to be a little girl, that might not be a great situation for Marley. However, I found out soon after that I was having a boy, and I felt like she willed it in her favor. I’m beyond elated to be having a boy.”


In Off season #EMPIRE News: Why Proud Mary Is Such An Important Movie For Taraji P. Henson
Taraji P. Henson is in her moment right now, and it couldn't have happened to a harder working woman. With Empire skyrocketing her profile to new heights, alongside consistently impressive work in films, most recently in the award-nominated box office phenomenon Hidden Figures, she's in a brighter spotlight than ever before. And it's only going to get more intense with next year's Proud Mary, as Henson has gotten her most important project yet. Not only is she a producer on the film, but she also gets to be the film's above-the-title lead. This is a fact that is especially not lost on Taraji P. Henson.

During a set visit this past spring, we had an opportunity to see Proud Mary in action. On top of that, we were given a good amount of time with the film's star, as she was in-between takes and eager to speak with the press. In that conversation, Henson reflected on an experience she had with a prior film, the 2014 thriller No Good Deed, and in particular something that stuck out in her mind was the coverage that film's sleeper success had drawn in its opening weekend. What stuck out was the following:
It's interesting as a woman, because if I were a man, the headlines would have read 'Taraji P. Henson's No Good Deed is number one at the box office.' I was also executive producer on that movie, as a matter of fact, I put that movie together. But I'm not taking away from Idris Elba's executive credit, because he deserves that. But, why is the headline reading 'Idris Elba's'? That hurt my feelings.

Proud Mary is certainly a different beast altogether, as this project wanted, and got, Taraji P. Henson from the word go. On top of that, Henson is also one of the producers of the film, only this time she's undeniably the marketable lead that will be front and center throughout the film's release window. That fact has been reflected in the first trailer for the film, as well as the retro-active feel that the posters for the film have given off. But even when the marketable lead for a film is pretty obvious, that's not always the way the studio will choose to sell their film.

A good example that speaks towards this is when Taraji P. Henson talked about her experience with Hidden Figures. While the film was positioned around the trio of Henson, Octavia Spencer, and Janelle Monae, she firmly believes that if this was a gender swapped story, the film would have been marketed around whomever the male equivalent of Katherine Johnson was. To be fair, the film is pretty firmly squared away on Johnson's story, despite including her equally important colleagues, Dorothy Vaughn and Mary Jackson, into the story's structure.

So why would Taraji P. Henson take the role of Proud Mary, besides the shot at increasing her profile exponentially should the film be a hit? Well, quite simply, it's a change of pace for her during her hiatus from Empire, which saw her making two films around the same time. Henson explained her feelings about the role of Mary as follows:
It was just different from anything I've ever done before. I really love playing different characters. ... The challenge for me is how do you make a character that people could really hate likeable? She does kill a lot of people, but for good reason.

So not only is Proud Mary a good showcase for Taraji P. Henson's skills as a producer and film lead, but it's also a fantastic opportunity for her to show off her acting muscle as well. And as you'll see in the film's teaser trailer, it looks like it's going to be a hell of a ride.
We'll get to see Henson kicking all sorts of criminal underworld ass in Proud Mary on January 12, 2018.

‘Real Housewives of Orange County’ Alum Lizzie Rovsek Files for Divorce From Husband Christian Rovsek
The Real Housewives of Orange County’s Lizzie Rovsek has filed for divorce from her husband after eight years of marriage!
According to court records first obtained by Radar, the RHOC alum, 37, filed a petition for dissolution of marriage against Christian Rovsek on October 19. The outlet further reported that there are no future hearings scheduled for the case and Christian has not yet responded to the filing.
The couple, who tied the knot in 2009, share two children together. In 2014, Rovsek told Radar Online that she and her then-husband “definitely want more babies.” Christian has been noticeably absent from any photos on the swimwear designer’s social media in recent months, though she often posts pictures of their two sons, Kingston and Preston.

The news comes just weeks after Us Weekly confirmed that another Real Housewives of Orange County star, Shannon Beador, had filed for divorce from her husband of 17 years on December 1.

Beador, 53, filed in O.C. Superior Court on Friday, December 1, more than one month after announcing her split in a statement to BravoTv.com. “After much thought and careful consideration, David and I have made the difficult decision to separate,” she said at the time. “We remain partners in parenthood and are committed to raising our three daughters. This is not the future we envisioned, and we kindly ask for privacy, especially for our children, during this transitional time.”

The former couple share three daughters: Sophie, 15, and twins Stella and Adeline, 12.

Azealia Banks Apologizes To Beyonce: I felt left out.
 ‘Tis the season to forgive and ask for forgiveness. Just ask Azealia Banks. This week, the controversial rapper apologized to Beyonce. Banks, who had blasted Bey over her latest “Lemonade” album, admitted that she came from a place of feeling ‘left out’. Banks says,

Beyonce, I apologize for throwing tantrums in the past. They totally came from a place of feeling left out.. you’ve inspired so much of the way I think about/value you myself as a performer and I ADORE you. Your presence in the art world and on earth is supernatural and and am so so so inspired by you. YOU DESERVE THE BEST. You deserve the finest things in life AND FINEST ART the art world has to offer. What’s mine is yours… anything you want of my art, etc YOU CAN HAVE. I would give you the clothes off of my back girl!! Thank you for always making the little black girl in me smile?. You’ve truly always been a beacon of light for me and I’m so so humbled by this.
Love,
Azealia

Should Beyonce accept Banks’ apology?


Tidal is Offering Free Trial for Christmas
Tidal is offering a 12-day free trial starting on December 25th. In comparison to normal trials—in which the start and end dates are determined per subscriber—the Tidal trial starts and ends for everyone on December 25th and January 5th, respectively. No credit card is required for the trial, so you can partake without worrying about an unexpected bill. The trial includes access to the premium tier, as well as the lossless Hi-Fi tier.

The free trial comes as Tidal has been working to increase availability, as the service has added support to Sonos speakers and Android TV late this year. Earlier this month, The Verge cited a report in Norway’s Dagens Næringsliv which claims new subscriptions have stalled, and the company has only six months of capital left. If you are curious about what Tidal has to offer, the free trial is a good opportunity to get the full experience before it drifts away.

The moment you’ve been waiting for is finally here! Start your holiday with #12DaysofTIDAL completely free on TIDAL!

Go ahead and try it out!
