Diddy Argues Some Charges In Sexual Assault Lawsuit Should Be Dismissed For This Reason

Diddy Argues Some Charges In Sexual Assault Lawsuit Should Be Dismissed For This Reason

Diddy

The motion, which was filed last Friday (April 26), claims that the embattled Bad Boy mogul cannot be sued for breaking laws that didn’t exist at the time, according to the Associated Press.

More specifically, the motion states that at the time of the alleged attack on Dickerson-Neal in 1991, some statutes that she cites in her suit, including those around revenge porn and human trafficking, weren’t yet on the books.

A judge has not yet ruled on the matter.

Tamar Braxton

Tamar Braxton is like so many other people who are giving Beyoncé her flowers for the impact of her latest album, COWBOY CARTER. The “Braxton Family Values” star was asked her thoughts on the project when she appeared on the 100th episode of the “We Sound Crazy” podcast.

A clip from their conversation began circulating this past weekend. In it, the Love and War vocalist shared, “I think that Black country is so necessary. I’m so happy that people with talent who can actually sing country music, that are Black people, are finally getting the recognition they deserve. That’s what I think.”

Moreover, Braxton added, “I just really appreciate Beyoncé for opening the door for all the other Black artists that has, you know, rode that wave behind the floodgates. I’m just really appreciative of her. These people can really sing. They’re so talented…”r

Drake Threatened With Lawsuit Over Diss Track Featuring AI Tupac

Drake Threatened With Lawsuit Over Diss Track Featuring AI Tupac

Tupac’s lawyers are threatening to sue Drake for using an AI-generated Tupac soundalike on his recent ‘Taylor Made’ diss track without permission.

While Drake’s fans have been having a ball with the Canadian rapper’s recently released track dissing fellow rapper Kendrick Lamar, the legal team representing Tupac Shakur is threatening to take legal action if the song isn’t pulled off the internet.

Billboard reports that late rapper Tupac’s legal team is ready to take Drake to court over the release of “Taylor Made,” Drake’s recently released song featuring the AI-generated voices of Shakur and Snoop Dogg. In a statement about Drake’s creation of “Taylor Made,” litigator Howard King called the song a “blatant abuse of the legacy of one of the greatest hip-hop artists of all time” and said the Shakur estate never cleared the use of Tupac’s voice.

“The Estate would never have given its approval for this use.”

The Entertainment World Mourns The Loss Of Meg Bennett, A Remarkable Talent Who Graced Television Screens And Enriched The Stories Of Such Shows As ‘The Young And The Restless’ And ‘General Hospital’.

Meg Bennett

Her family confirmed that Bennett succumbed to a battle with cancer on April 11, leaving behind a legacy that shaped the landscape of daytime TV for decades.

Before her career catapulted her into the homes of millions, Bennett shone on the Broadway stage, portraying Marty Maraschino in the original run of “Grease” that debuted in 1972. However, it was her transition to daytime television in 1974 as Liza Walton on “Search for Tomorrow” that marked the beginning of an illustrious career in soap operas.

Notably, her portrayal of Julia Newman on “The Young and the Restless” demonstrated her ability to captivate audiences with her compelling performances. Yet, as her character faced being written off, the show’s creator Bill Bell recognized Bennett’s profuse understanding of the show’s dynamics and invited her to join the writing team, a decision that would mark the start of a prolific writing career.

Blac Chyna And Tyga No Longer Tussling Over Son, King Cairo, Reach Settlement In Custody Battle

Blac Chyna And Tyga

 

The woman formerly known as Blac Chyna seems to be putting all toxicity behind her.

After a long custody battle with the father of her child, rapper Tyga, the pair have finally come to an agreement for their son, King Cairo.

According to Yahoo, Blac Chyna, born Angela White, and Tyga, born Michael Stevenson, have finally reached an amicable decision about visitation, custody and their individual legal fees.

The pair will no longer meet in court to discuss the proceedings.

The bad blood between the coparents began when the 24-year-old rapper began dating 17-year-old Kylie Jenner…while he was engaged to Chyna. At the time, Chyna was also good friends with Jenner’s older sister, Kim Kardashian. The whole mess unfolded as the reality TV culture vultures continued their rise to superstardom. It ended in a nasty split between Chyna, Tyga and the Kardashian klan.

Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre have rebooted their 1993 classic track, “Gin & Juice,” for the country crowd, and they’ve enlisted the help of rising country music superstar Hardy to do it.

Hardy dropped the track on Friday (April 19), and explained that he personally got the call from the West Coast legends to do the cover.

“A while back, I got a phone call saying that Jimmy Iovine, Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg would like for me to record my own version of ‘Gin and Juice’ for the launch of their new drink, Gin & Juice,” he told Complex. “I’m still in disbelief, but I am so stoked that I’m dropping my version of ‘Gin and Juice’ with the blessing of Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg themselves. Thankful for the opportunity.”

The official video will be released next month,

Channing Crowder Is Aggy Over Drake Hitting On His Wife At His Concert

Channing Crowder Is Aggy Over Drake Hitting On His Wife At His Concert

Channing Crowder and wife

 

Retired NFL linebacker Channing Crowder didn’t appreciate Drake hitting on his wife at his concert and wants the rapper to see him.

In 2023, Crowder and his wife of over 10 years, Aja Crowder, attended Drake’s It’s All a Blur Tour – Big as the What? Tour at the Amerant Bank Arena in Sunrise, Fla.

An Instagram clip Crowder posted to his Instagram on April 14 showed Drake in a cage suspended mid-air when he paused to acknowledge a woman in a green top inside one of the arena’s suites and comment on how good she looked.

“Oh, shit. The green right there…fine as hell,” Drake said.

The woman in the green happened to be Aja, and many couldn’t believe how he managed to spot Aja from far away.

Although the moment happened last year, Crowder proved the woman in the green was his wife by posting a reel to Instagram that included mini clips of his wife wearing the green top Drake pointed out, which she wore the entire day before the concert.

The 40-year-old former Miami Dolphins linebacker wrote in the caption, “First @kaicenat now @champagnepapi [trying to] take my lady. Y’all need to stop playing with me! Ima fight ’bout mine.”
