Rapper Bow Wow Arrested, Accused of Assaulting Woman – Who Was Also Arrested.


Shad Moss, aka Bow Wow, became the first celebrity casualty of the star-studded Super Bowl weekend in Atlanta. The 31-year-old rapper was arrested early Saturday in Atlanta, Channel 2 Action News confirms.

The troubled rapper is accused of assaulting a woman at 205 12th Street around 4:15 a.m., according to a police report obtained by WSB-TV. The woman was also taken into custody, since they both displayed signs of injury.

Atlanta police say "they were unable to determine the primary aggressor of the altercation, so both parties were charged with battery."

The woman was not identified, but Bow Wow recently reunited with his on-again, off-again girlfriend Kiyomi Leslie (pictured).

A day before the altercation, Bow Wow promoted a pop-up shop for his mother, Teresa Caldwell, at Salon Morae.

"Ladies in town for the Super Bowl don't forget... My mother is having her @shoptasteonline "SIP & SHOP" today!!! 1pm-7pm Fri & Sat. #shopping #food #drinks," he tweeted on Friday.

Bow Wow, who is a native of Ohio, is a full-time resident of Atlanta.

He is best known as child rapper "Li'l Bow Wow" - a stage name bestowed upon him by his idol Snoop Dogg.

Bow Wow was the protege of rap producer Jermaine Dupri, who crafted hit songs for the youngster, including"Bounce with Me" off his debut album Beware of Dog.

In 2016, Bow Wow announced he was retiring from rap. He currently stars as himself in the Growing Up Hip Hop: Atlanta reality TV show.

Rihanna Sues Her Dad for Stealing Her Fenty Brand Name


Rihanna is going after her own father in court for using her Fenty brand and his relationship to her to launch a business for himself ... according to new court docs.

In a new lawsuit -- obtained by TMZ -- Rihanna claims her father, Ronald Fenty, recently started a talent development company in 2017 called Fenty Entertainment. The problem ... Rihanna has already trademarked "Fenty" to use in a number of biz ventures, including her well-known Fenty Beauty line. She claims he's profiting off the reputation she's created with Fenty.

In the docs, Rihanna says her father and a business partner falsely advertised themselves as her reps to solicit millions of dollars, including trying to book her for 15 shows in Latin America in December 2017 for $15 mil ... all without her authorization. 

Rihanna claims later her dad even unsuccessfully tried to file a trademark for "Fenty" to use with resort boutique hotels.

She says she's sent multiple cease and desist letters to her father, ordering him to stop capitalizing off of her Fenty trademarks, but says he's ignored them and continued to make money off of Fenty Entertainment.
She's asking a judge to place an injunction on her dad using the name Fenty ... and, of course, for damages.

R Kelly plotted to kill ex, 17, who leaked sex tape of singer raping and peeing on victim, 14


After the video got into the hands of law enforcement and Kelly was hit with child pornography, he allegedly plotted to kill Evans she reveals (Kelly and the alleged girl in the sex tape)

The release of the infamous sex tape that led to R. Kelly's arrest on charges of child pornography is the focus of the second chapter of the three-part docuseries Surviving R. Kelly airing Friday night.

It includes interviews with a  number of the women who were involved in the scandal, including the person who stole the videotape from Kelly's library and got it in the hands of a Chicago journalist. 

That was Lisa Van Allen, who was just 17 and believed that she was Kelly's girlfriend at the time due to the fact that she spent all her time with him and they were havcing a sexual relationship.

She was one of the few victims to break free from Kelly on her own terms, and says in the episode that she started seeing the singer in a different light after he convinced her to have a threesome with another girl but did not reveal her actual age.

It was that same girl, who was just 14, that Kelly could be seen with on the tape Allen claimed to have lifted from his library. 

Allen struggles to maintain her composure while recalling the events, and at one point suddenly shuts down and begins to silently cry.

She then says: 'I just didn't know there was a point in time they were talking about killing me.'  

It was Stephanie Edwards, better known as Sparkle, who first introduced Kelly to the young victim - who was also her niece.

She reveals how over time she went from surprised to concerned and eventually disgusted at the relationship between the singer and the young teen.  

That is why she decided to speak out against the singer and testify during his trial when others remained silent.

She event turned down an offer in the high-six figures to film herself calling a truce with Kelly, saying she cannot be bought.

At the trial, which took place in 2008, Sparkle testified under oath that the video, filmed in 2000, showed Kelly and her niece.

Allen very bravely did the same during the proceedings, which kicked off with jurors watching the tape in its entirety.

In the end, Kelly was acquitted by a jury of his peers.

And after dodging jail time Kelly's next move was to bed a 14-year-old high school freshman who had been camping outside the courthouse to see the singer.

She too shares her story on the third and fourth episodes of the docuseries on Friday.

Brainwashed:Allen (above at 17) believed that she was Kelly's girlfriend at the time due to the fact that she spent all her time with him and they were havcing a sexual relationship.

Hitting back: It was Stephanie Edwards, better known as Sparkle (above) , who first introduced Kelly to the young victim - who was also her niece

New victim: He then began having a relationship with a girl, 14, he met outside the courthouse during the trial

The series premiered Thursday on Lifetime and sheds new light on charges against the artist, whose real name is Robert Sylvester Kelly. 

The team behind Surviving R. Kelly held dozens of interviews filmed with members of the singer's inner circle.

In the documentary, backup singers detailed sexual relations between R. Kelly and three girls under the age of 16, including 15-year-old star Aaliyah, who died in 2001 in a plane crash.

Kelly is indicted in a Florida courtroom in 2002

The allegations are subject to criminal prosecution in several US states including Illinois, where R. Kelly lived as a resident of Chicago.

Aaliyah's mother Diane Haughton called the allegations 'fabrications' and accused the witnesses of being "saboteurs of Aaliyah's legacy."

In the documentary, women portray R. Kelly as manipulative, violent and focused on young girls, allegedly demanding they call him 'daddy.'

Lizzette Martinez, who met the artist at age 17 as he was approaching his thirties, says she was a victim of 'mental and physical abuse' during their relationship, which lasted several years.

'He stole my life from me being abused like this,' she says in the documentary directed by filmmaker Dream Hampton. 

'I don't think he understands girls that are young how impressionable we are and how traumatic these experiences are.'

She then adds: 'They change you forever.' 

Few celebrities participated in the documentary, despite the willingness of many to record with the artist in the wake of his child pornography trial. 

John Legend is the rare exception, stepping up whereas others like Jay Z and Lady Gaga declined to participate. 

He addressed the praise he received from many on social media Thursday by tweeting.

Chimamanda Adichie Refers To Trump’s Wife Melania As A ‘Racist’





Prominent novelist and writer, Chimamanda Adichie has referred to United States First Lady, Melania Trump as a racist. Adichie made the statement in a recent interview with international magazine, Esquire UK where she talked about her stance on feminism, Melania Trump’s visit to Africa and racism.

‘yes’. I think she is racist”. She declared.

When asked if she thought Melania Trump was racist, she answered in the positive with reference to Melania’s recent visit to Africa. She said:

“Had you asked me this question yesterday, I would have said ‘yes’ and my evidence would be that she supported her husband when he was being incredibly racist to Barack Obama. But I just watched an interview that she gave and I was just appalled by it.

She sort of stepped out of a colonial 1750 guidebook about how to be in Africa. There’s a pith helmet and then I am thinking maybe this is supposed to be ironic? Maybe it is a critique of colonialism. She really thought this is what you do when you go to Africa and it says something about someone who is so removed from reality”.

Adichie went on to reference a jacket Melania wore to one of the US children immigration camps which read “I really don’t care: Do you?” and caused a media frenzy.

She said, “and I remember when the media made a lot of noise about that jacket. I remember actually kind of being on her side when all that noise was happening. I thought she doesn’t know, she couldn’t possibly do this knowingly. She did, so the answer to your question is ‘yes’. I think she is racist”.

I Did NOT Cheat on Khloe Kardashian-Tristan Thompson:




You've seen the videos; you've read the eye-witness accounts; you've even been stunned by the rumors that one of his side-pieces is pregnant.
But Tristan Thompson has just one thing to say about the rumors that he's been cheating on Khloe Kardashian at every opportunity - it's all #FakeNews.

According to Radar Online, Khloe has confronted Tristan about the allegations, and despite an ever-growing mountain of proof, he simply refuses to confess.
“He is not coming clean about this, and told her that he wants her to prove it,” a source tells the outlet.
“He wants Khloe or her family to show him evidence that he was unfaithful this past weekend. Until she provides this to her, he is going to claim he is innocent.”
You almost have to admire the shamelessness.
The internet is currently awash in evidence that Tristan cheated on Khloe not just once, but several times in the past few months.

A conflicting source claims that Tristan has admitted to hooking up with two women at a D.C.-area hookah bar back in October.
The NBA star maintains, however, that he did not spend the night with famed model and stripper Lani Blair in NYC last week
“Tristan admitted to Khloe that he cheated on her with the two women on that tape because he had to. He was caught red-handed,” the insider claims.
Whatever the case, it seems Khloe is having none of Tristan's excuses.
Despite rumors that Khloe went into labor yesterday.

Khloe Kardashian Welcomes Baby Girl!!!





On Wednesday, the news that Khloe Kardashian was in labor was almost drowned out by reports about Tristan Thompson's cheating.
Now, despite all of the chaos and the cheating drama, there is finally some good news ...

Khloe celebrated the arrival of her baby girl!!!

TMZ reported a short while ago that the 33-year-old Khloe Kardashian gave birth to her first child early Thursday morning.
At approximately 4:00 this morning, in a hospital just outside of Cleveland, Ohio, Khloe delivered her first child with NBA star Thompson.
If you're hoping to know the baby name - and names from the Kardashians are always interesting - you may have to wait.
In a curious twist, the celebrity news site reports that Khloe has not yet decided upon a name for her baby girl.

26-Year-Old Sells Virginity for $1.5 Million







Jasmin is a 26-year-old woman who lives in London.
In the video that you can see below, she announced that she is auctioning off her virginity to the highest bidder -- because she is tired of waiting for the right man and, hey, who couldn't use some extra money?
Well, she's apparently accepted a final bid ... for around $1.5 million dollars.

Virginity isn't a biological state -- it's a social construct. But that doesn't mean that it isn't real.

Like ... money is also a social construct. Either can be traded away to someone who values it.

And Jasmin knows that there are absolutely men out there who value the idea of virginity ... and would jump at the chance to be the one to "take" it from a beautiful woman.

So she has offered her first time up for auction with hopes of raising the funds to secure her future and perhaps travel the world.


Jasmin us using a German company to facilitate the auction.


"'I would like to sell my virginity on Cinderella Escorts because I want to travel the world and visit America and various other places."

She has real ambitions.

"My future plans include starting my own business and this is something that requires money. Doing this will allow me to move forward with my life. I will be able to have a future free of financial worries."

She has been saving herself for marriage, but become disillusioned with that idea.

"Traditional views regarding virginity are so outdated. I believe that its my choice what I do with my body and I am sick and tired of waiting for the right person to come along."

This is certainly one way to attain financial independence.

"After 26 years I still haven’t found him so I decided a positive alternative would be selling my virginity."


She tells prospective buyers that her breasts are real.


She goes on to describe her interest in activities like traveling, reading, and movies.

Jasmin tells The Sun that:

"I really respect ladies who are traditional and want to wait for sex after marriage. I was one of them. I really wanted to wait for the right one. But I don't want to wait any longer."

She's reminding us all that one can be forthright about sexuality without condemning others who are more reserved about sex.

"So I chose another way which will make me happy. I am sure about my decision."

Good for her.


The Daily Mail reports that Jasmin has received a final offer of 1.2 million euros, which translates to about $1.5 million.
The tryst is planned for April and will take place in a hotel room.

The man representing Jasmin's interests on behalf of Cinderella Escorts says that Jasmin can of course back out of the arrangement at any time, and that he will personally see to her safety.
Jasmin dined with top bidders before she decided to accept.

Honestly, she sounds like a real inspiration. Though we should mention, of course, that others have auctioned their virginities in the past.


She made headlines last year with her declaration that she was putting her virginity up for auction like this.
Some may try to sex-shame her (many have, actually), but people sell their labor every day of the week.
