Lenny Kravitz Oddly Offers Himself Up in a Tub for Valentine’s Day

By
Roger Ratchet

As a long-time DILF, Lenny Kravitz has aged like fine wine for many of his female fans. (Hell, it’s 2017, plenty of his male fans are admirers of his looks too.)

Given Lenny’s track record for being a bit of a Romeo, it wasn’t terribly out of left field that he might post a little romantic selfie or something to his fans in honor of Valentine’s Day. However, fans got far more than what they bargained for as Kravitz posted a staged photo of himself naked in the bath tub. But strangely, he was posed with one of his legs raised, seemingly offering up his anus for dessert.

Now I know plenty of people love a box of chocolates on Valentine’s Day, but that might’ve been more than most of Lenny’s fan base was hoping to bite into.

Given the rising trend that we’re seeing in straight men openly requesting and admitting to enjoying getting their asses eaten out, I guess this is Lenny’s way of signaling his intentions to his beloved.

In the words of the great Khia: Is you hongray?

Kanye West May Have Suffered Memory Loss After His Nervous Breakdown, Friend & Collaborator Malik Yusef Reveals

By
Devarrick Turner

Other than a misstep of having a meeting with Donald Trump at Trump Tower, Kanye West has relatively laid low since being released from the hospital in late November. By all accounts the rapper is recovering nicely, but did his “temporary psychosis” also cause memory loss?

Kanye’s longtime friend and frequent collaborator Malik Yusef attended the Grammys Sunday (Feb. 12) and gave an update on Kanye’s health when asked during a red carpet interview with PopSugar. While Yusef said Kanye was doing well, his response also hinted that Kanye may have suffered memory loss from the nervous breakdown.

“I’ve been to his house. Sat down with him for about 6, 7 hours. Just walking through his health and recovery. His memory’s coming back. Yeah, his memory’s coming back, which is super good. And just healing. Spending time with his family. Saint [Kanye’s son] is getting big and he’s walking and playing with toys so, you know, that invigorates him.”

This is the first time possible memory loss has been revealed by someone close to the rapper or reported by the media. Though this has not been confirmed, I don’t see a reason why Yusef would imply the issue if it weren’t true (or partly true).

After exhibiting bizarre behavior and several onstage rants, Kanye was hospitalized in November for exhaustion and sleep deprivation. However, the 911 call referred to the incident as a “psychiatric emergency.” He spent over a week in the hospital and is reportedly receiving “ongoing psychological and medical treatment” since his release.

Kanye skipped the 2017 Grammys though he was nominated for eight awards (two with Yusef). However, he is currently in New York for New York Fashion Week where he is expected to debut Yeezy Season 5 on Wednesday (Feb. 15). He may also debut his collaborative children’s clothing line with Kim Kardashian.

The rapper recently deleted his tweets supporting Trump, a sure sign he is on the mend. We wish Kanye well as he continues his road to recovery.

Hot Felon Turned Model Jeremy Meeks Makes Runway Debut at New York Fashion Week

By
Devarrick Turner

Prison Bae is really out here making it happen. Jeremy Meeks, the man whose sexy mugshot went viral and had everybody and their mama getting hot and bothered in 2014, just made his runway debut – at New York Fashion Week!

The “hot felon” made his runway debut by walking in the Philipp Plein show on Monday (Feb. 13); he even opened the show. Meeks wore an all-black ensemble as he brought his prison-swag to high fashion.

Plein is a German designer who is expanding to the American market and was also making his NYFW debut. His show was one of the most highly-anticipated of the bi-annual event and was attended by celebs like Madonna, Kylie Jenner, Tyga, Fat Joe, Paris Hilton, and Tiffany Trump.

Desiigner, Young Thug, and Pete Wentz also walked in Plein’s NYFW show.

Though Meeks was covered up on the runway, he showed a lot more skin backstage. The 33-year-old posed shirtless for several photos with his sweatpants low enough to show off his Philipp Plein boxers.

Meeks became an internet sensation in 2014 for his model good looks after Stockton Police Department posted his mugshot on its Facebook page. He served two years in prison for gun possession and was released in March 2016. However, one year before his release, he signed a modeling contract with White Cross Management.

Whatever your thoughts are of prison bae, it’s nice that the husband and father of three is able to have this positive experience. You can also follow his modeling journey via his Instagram account.

The only drawback to Meeks’ runway debut is that, unfortunately for Plein, Meeks is getting more attention that the designer’s collection.

Nick Cannon Wants to Quit America’s Got Talent After NBC Backlash Over Racial Joke, But Can He?

By
Adam Roper

For the past eight years, Nick Cannon has served as the charismatic host of the widely popular America’s Got Talent, but when production on season 12 kicks off next month, there might be a new host on stage. That’s because Nick Cannon has decided to quit after an NBC backlash over one of his jokes in his latest Showtime stand-up special.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fceBobcO7I8

Part of Cannon’s contract with NBC includes a disparagement clause which states that Cannon cannot do/say anything to hurt NBC’s reputation or cast his employer in a negative light. So when Cannon went onstage for his recent stand-up and did just that, it didn’t sit well with the major broadcasting company.

“I grew up like a real n***a, all that stuff, but I honestly believe once I started doing America’s Got Talent, they took my real n***a card,” he said in the special.

“This is going to be a little bit different tonight,” he said. “That’s what NBC is gonna stand for tonight: N***as better come on, cuz n***as be cussin’, so n***as be careful. Cuz y’all see me on the show. I mean sometimes I wish I could say the stuff that I want to say…but I can’t say that. I can’t talk like that ‘cuz that would mess up the white money. It will.”

When news of the jokes featured in the special reached executives at NBC, they suggested that Cannon could be fired for disparaging the NBC brand, but they decided it wasn’t worth firing him. But Cannon was so pissed at the mere possibility that he could be fired for speaking his mind, he took to social media to announce he was quitting.

He criticized NBC for trying to threaten his ability to freely express himself, saying it was, “another way to silence and control an outspoken voice who often battles the establishment.”

“Not to get too detailed but this isn’t the first time executives have attempted to ‘put me in my place’ for so called unruly actions. I will not stand for it. My moral principles will easily walk away from the millions of dollars they hang over my head.”

Despite his intentions to leave the show behind, he, along with the four judges, resigned their NBC deals last August, meaning he can’t legally resign for the upcoming cycle.

NBC could let him out of his contract, and knowing how anxious major companies like NBC are to avoid any controversy, they may do just that. But with filming set to begin soon, a decision will have to be made soon.

Jeffrey Sandusky Charged With Child Sex Crimes: Some Things You Need To Know

By
Adam Roper

Former Penn State football coach and convicted serial child molester Jerry Sandusky has been spending his days in prison after being convicted of sexually abusing children, and now, one of his own children finds himself in a similar situation. Jeffrey Sandusky, one of Jerry’s six adopted children, has been charged with multiple charges of sexual offenses involving two 15 and 16-year-old girls.

This is the same son who had publicly defended his father while under investigation for sexually assaulting children.

Here are some things you need to know.

Sandusky had been texting inappropriate messages to the alleged victim.

Sandusky allegedly sent inappropriate texts to one of the children, frequently urging the child to not tell anyone. He told the alleged victim the texts “were not weird because he studied medicine.” On occasion, he even went so far as to ask for naked photographs as well as photos of one of the girls urinating and changing clothes, the complaint says.

The inappropriate behavior extended beyond just messaging, however. The child has told police that Sandusky made sexual comments to her in person and that he, “is always looking at me in weird ways, staring me up and down.”

One of the girls told him “I don’t know how many times I need to tell you no.”

jeffrey-sandusky-mugshot

Despite Sandusky’s incessant attempts, the younger girl refused. She texted him, “I don’t know how many times I need to tell you no and to stop before you get it.” Her sister later opened up about her abuse after the mother kicked Sandusky out of the family home. She told police that in 2013, he had asked her for oral sex.

Jeffrey Sandusky was living with the mother of the victims at one point.

According to a criminal complaint from Pennsylvania State Police, Sandusky had been dating the mother of the alleged victims, even living in her home for about five years. Once the allegations came to light, however, the mother asked Sandusky to leave the house.

The abuse only came to light when the child shared information with the father, who then notified police.

Sandusky is being charged with 14 counts and is facing 20 years in prison.

According to court records filed Monday, the 41-year-old is being charged with 14 counts, including criminal solicitation and corruption of minors. The key word here is minors, as there has allegedly been more than one victim.

The criminal complaint cites a second child, saying Sandusky abused the child dating back as far as 2013. If he is found guilty, Sandusky could face 20 years in prison.

Jeffrey Sandusky defended his father, Jerry, amidst child abuse allegations.

jeffrey-jerry-dottie-sandusky

The story of Jerry Sandusky’s child molestation made national headlines when the Penn State sex abuse scandal broke. He is currently serving 30 to 60 years in prison, and it forever tarnished the school, as well as legendary coach Joe Paterno’s, reputation. During the investigation, another one of Jerry’s adopted children, Matthew, came forward with allegations that Jerry sexually abused him as a child, as well.

During this time, Jeffrey actually defended his father. In an interview featured on Bleacher Report, he is cited as saying, “My mom and dad are amazing parents. Just amazing.” And while he didn’t outright bash his adopted brother’s accusations, he stood behind his father 100%.

“Dad himself says he had boundary issues, meaning that he’d put a hand around your shoulder, he’d have his hand on my leg,” he said. “Can that be taken the wrong way? Yes, and I get it. But he was not doing it to be a creeper, a perv. No, he was doing it to say I care about you.”

Jeffrey Sandusky’s mother, and Jerry Defender, was in the courtroom.

Dottie Sandusky, wife of Jerry and mother of Jeffrey, was present in court during her son’s arraignment. While she has not made a statement on the allegations levied on her son, she has been an adamant supporter of her husband.

During the investigation into Jerry Sandusky, and even after the fact of him being charged and sentenced to prison, the has maintained that he is innocent.

Mugshot Madness: Jerry Sandusky’s Son Jeffrey Arrested for Sexually Assaulting Child

By
Dustin Gary

In a terribly sad and disturbing case of “like father like son,” Jeffrey Sandusky, the 41-year-old adopted son of Jerry Sandusky, has been arrested in Pennsylvania for allegedly sexually assaulting a child.

Jeffrey was arraigned Monday (Feb. 13) in Bellefonte, PA and he was charged with multiple counts of possessing child pornography, child sex abuse and corruption of minors.

Officials said an investigation was launched back in November 2016 after a child claimed to have received explicit text messages from Sandusky, who was reportedly dating the child’s mother. In some of the messages, Sandusky allegedly requested naked pictures from the child. The child’s father is the one who notified police.

WTAJ News reported a second child was also abused in 2013, according to the criminal complaint. Sandusky’s bail was set at $200,000 and he is prohibited from any contact whatsoever with minors. His mother, Dottie Sandusky, attended his arraignment.

Jeffrey’s father Jerry Sandusky is currently serving a 30 to 60 year prison sentence after he was convicted of raping several young boys while he was the assistant football coach at Penn State.

Emotional Adele Restarts Off-Key George Michael Grammys Tribute, Performs Haunting “Fastlove” Arrangement

By
Devarrick Turner

Adele had the honor or opening the 2017 Grammy Awards, but this was nothing to the pressure she felt performing a tribute to idol and fellow Brit George Michael, who passed away in December.

Adele performed a new arrangement of Michael’s “Fastlove.” The haunting cover was arranged by Hans Zimmer and featured a full string orchestra. Unfortunately, slightly under the note, Adele began the song in the wrong key. After singing a few lines, she stopped the performance.

“I know it’s live TV. I’m sorry, but I can’t do it again like last year. I’m sorry for swearing and I’m sorry for starting again. Can we please start it again? I’m sorry I can’t mess this up for him.”

Not wanting a repeat of her 2016 Grammy performance, which had audio issues, she wanted to start “Fastlove” over in order to do her idol’s tribute with justice. With support from the audience, she let out one more f-bomb and gave the song another try from the top.

Flawless! Fighting back tears, she carried on through the song and gave a tribute Michael would certainly be proud of. A visibly emotional Adele briefly turned away from the audience as she received an extended standing ovation.

Adele later told press she had been working on the song for a month but had a “shaky rehearsal” earlier that day.

“I was devastated by that, and my rehearsal — I did have a shaky rehearsal today. But I have been working very hard on this tribute for him, every day.”

Michael unexpectedly died from heart failure on Christmas Day 2016 at just 53. He won two Grammys during his 35-year-long career, including Album of the Year in 1989 (Faith) and Best R&B Vocal Performance by a Duo or Group with Aretha Franklin in 1987 (“I Knew You Were Waiting for Me”).

Katy Perry Gets Political on Grammys Stage While Performing “Chained to the Rhythm” for First Time

By
Devarrick Turner

What better place to perform your newest single live for the first time than at the Grammy Awards? Katy Perry not only performed “Chained to the Rhythm” with Skip Marley, but also took the opportunity to make an important political statement through imagery.

Perry’s set consisted of a house safely enclosed by a white picket fence with images of clouds projected onto the moving white props. To add context, “Chained to the Rhythm” is a disco-pop tune that lyrically examines how some people live in their own bubbles and are oblivious to hardships and concerns of others with different backgrounds and experiences.

She explained to Ryan Seacrest:

“There’s so much divisiveness, and people on one side or the other, and we just need to listen to each other. So, I hope that the song does that.”

She also wore a red “persist” armband, which is a nod to Sen. Elizabeth Warren who attempted to keep speaking after being silenced by a Republican-majority Senate vote during Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ confirmation hearing.

But just in case you weren’t comprehending the subtext of her performance, Perry’s political message became crystal clear as the fences formed the preamble of the Constitution at the end of the performance. “No hate!” she yelled while holding Marley’s hand up in the air.

Whereas A Tribe Called Quest and Busta Rhymes’ politically-charged performance was aggressive and defiant, Perry opted for a subdued “We need to come together” approach. It may not be as impactful (or memorable), but it got the job the done.

Chance the Rapper Leaves Lasting Mark on Grammy Stage With Performances of “How Great” & “All We Got”

By
Devarrick Turner

Chance the Rapper made his Grammy stage debut at the 2017 ceremony and, man, did he make a huge splash. The Chicagoan earned three Grammys, including Best New Artist and Best Rap Album, making Coloring Book the first streaming-only album to earn a nomination and subsequent win.

Following his history-making achievements, Chance took to the stage to give the most uplifting and exuberant performance of the night. Accompanied by his cousin Nicole, Kirk Franklin, Tamela Mann and a jubilant gospel choir, Chance took the Grammys to church as he performed “How Great” and “All We Got” with interpolations of “No Problem” and “Blessings.”

The 23-year-old was definitely hyped from winning three Grammys as he jumped around the stage wearing is signature “3” cap. Nevertheless, he flawlessly performed the gospel-rap tracks from Coloring Book.

I often joke that awards season is my favorite season. This is because it’s the place where dreams really do come true. Chance the Rapper’s dream came to fruition in front of our eyes. He believed in his goal, never deterred from his principles and has now opened many doors for other independent and streaming artists.

Although Adele won all five of her nominations, I would argue the 59th Annual Grammy Awards belong to Chance the Rapper. (Chance had seven nominations in total.)

Cee-Lo Green Showed Up to the Grammys Looking Like a Reject, Midget, Obese C-3P0

By
Roger Ratchet

At one point, Cee-Lo Green was on top of the world. As a singer and songwriter, his eclectic brand of R&B and pop was in-demand and Cee-Lo rode his eccentricities to critical acclaim and success.

Whether it was as part of the producer-singer collaboration Gnarls Barkley or with his own solo material, he made hit after hit. These string of hits led to Cee-Lo landing a high-profile, high-paying TV gig as one of the original judge of the U.S. version of The Voice.

But then in 2014, Cee-Lo’s career was stained when allegations of him drugging and taking advantage of a woman surfaced. At that point, Cee-Lo went into hiding for the most part as he opted to quit The Voice and didn’t release new music.

Now that a few more years have passed, Cee-Lo appears to have decided that enough time has passed that he can return to the public eye with stunts and gimmicks. Unfortunately, this is 2017 and not 2010.

In 2010, 2011 and 2012, Nicki Minaj and Lady Gaga could draw attention and acclaim by dressing outlandishly at award shows. That is until people got sick and tired of the costumes and Gaga and Nicki both got hip and ditched the year-round Halloween costume party approach for the most part.

Cee-Lo, however, feels like dressing like a fat, Christmas-gift-wrap, midget version of Star Wars C-3P0 is a winning move for him. He looks like “What if Golddust ate his opponents instead of wrestling them”? (P.S. Goldust noticed and called Cee-Lo out on his golden attire.) He looks like something that the Power Rangers would’ve punched the daylights out of.

ceelo-green-grammys2017

Can Cee-Lo please store this insane get-up back in the drawer at Trump Tower where it belongs? Stunts like this ain’t the move in 2017.

Watch Bruno Mars and Morris Day & The Time Pay Homage to Prince at the 2017 Grammys

By
Roger Ratchet

As an artist who first grabbed attention for his impersonation of Elvis as a child, it perhaps shouldn’t be a surprise that Bruno Mars is good for a tribute performance.

In many ways, he’s the heir to James Brown, Michael Jackson, Bobby Brown and Prince’s throne. Mars is a chameleon though, and he channels some idols more than others depending on the project or performance. And he does so in way that seems more controlled and sanitized than the source material. And in that way, Bruno’s not unlike Beyoncé, who pulls the best from her idols (Whitney, Michael Jackson, Prince, Lauryn Hill) but doesn’t bring along their vices.

As a short, feisty, light-skinned man with curly hair, Bruno fits the profile for stepping into Prince’s high-heeled shoes. Though Bruno’s brown comes from a different part of the world (Puerto Rico + the Phillipines) than Prince’s did, Mars has proved himself to be an incredible student of pop, rock and R&B. He effortlessly mimics and channels the Purple Ones vocals and physical gestures as he hit the stage to perform “Let’s Go Crazy” in honor of Prince at the 2017 Grammys.

Bruno’s performance followed a solid set from Prince’s protege, Morris Day and the Time, who Bruno also draws much inspiration from in other previously released material.

While Mars has long been known as a capable dancer and singer, the Prince tribute offers him the chance to show off his guitar playing skills as well. Is there nothing this man can’t do?

Check out Bruno and Morris Day & The Time’s electric tribute to Prince at the 2017 Grammys below:

Busta Rhymes Calls Out “President Agent Orange” During A Tribe Called Quest’s Defiant, Politically-Charged Grammy Performance

By
Devarrick Turner

It’s almost become expected that politics and/or social issues will be briefly addressed at any awards show, especially during the troublesome times of “Trump’s America.” The 2017 Grammys were no different. However, it was A Tribe Called Quest that made the most defiant and powerful political statement of the night.

The legendary hip-hop group performed a trio of their latest hits, “Award Tour,” “Movin Backwards” and “We the People.” They were joined onstage by Anderson .Paak, Consequence, and Busta Rhymes – who gave a shout out to “President Agent Orange.” Yep, Busta took it there.

“I wanna thank President Agent Orange for perpetuating all the evil that you’ve been perpetuating throughout the United States. I wanna thank President Agent Orange for your unsuccessful attempt at the Muslim ban. Now we come together!”

ATCQ literally knocked down a wall as they began “We the People.” A diverse group of people — including Hispanics and Muslim women wearing hijabs — increasingly filled the stage as the performance progressed.

The group paid tribute to original member, the late Phife Dawg, by raising a fist as his verse played. Q-Tip then ended the politically-charged performance by repeatedly saying “resist,” presumably meaning to pushback against Donald Trump’s controversial agenda.

It’s definitely safe to say that A Tribe Called Quest does not like President Agent Orange Trump.

Metallica & Lady Gaga Overcome Technical Difficulties During Grammy Performance Like True Rock Stars

By
Devarrick Turner

Keeping with tradition of creating memorable “Grammy moments” by pairing artists for a joint performance, Lady Gaga joined Metallica for an electrifying performance of their song “Moth into Flame.” Unfortunately, things got off on the wrong foot before the artists even hit the stage.

Laverne Cox introduced the number, but while acknowledging Gaga, she accidently never explicitly introduced Metallica, only referring to them as “eight-time Grammy Award winners.”

The rock group began to perform, but uh-oh, frontman James Hetfield’s microphone is not working! His first few lines were completely inaudible and he was forced to share Gaga’s mic until the audio issue was resolved.

Midway through the number, Gaga jumped into a mosh pit in hopes of crowd surfing, but never actually went anywhere. She kicked and flailed in one spot until the audience tossed her back where she originally leaped off the stage.

Despite these glaring mistakes, pros Metallica and Gaga persevered and actually gave a pretty solid performance.

Gaga’s vocals were spot-on, which again shows her versatility. From last year’s show-stopping David Bowie tribute, the Super Bowl Halftime Show, singing with Tony Bennett, and her recent country-infused Joanne album, Gaga proved this Grammy night that she is a true rock star.

Metallica was nominated for Best Rock Song (“Hardwired”), but lost to David Bowie’s “Blackstar.”

Watch Bruno Mars Break Down What He Likes at the 2017 Grammys

By
Roger Ratchet

If you have a soft spot for late ’80s or early ’90s R&B, then you’ll love what Bruno Mars is serving. His first single, “24K Magic,” was a hearty, braggadocious pimp anthem that celebrated style, swagger and wealth. Bruno’s latest single, “That’s What I Like It,” feels like something straight from a New Edition studio session.

Its romantic lyrics and sweet talk echo classic R&B from groups like New Edition and Boyz II Men as it’s full of rich harmonies, gorgeous bridges and impressive runs.

Though Bruno does, at times, appear to strain a bit vocally, overall, Bruno delivers another solid R&B performance as he dances and sings like someone who cares about the genre. Unlike many of his contemporaries, Bruno isn’t afraid to sing and dance like he’s an R&B or pop star. Others in his category, like Trey Songz, have decided that behaving like a rapper and wandering the stage while grabbing your genitals is the way to go.

Dear Bruno, please keep giving us that classic good shit. R&B/Pop desperately need male stars who appreciate and want to be in the genre rather than mimic whatever rappers are doing.

Check out Bruno’s smooth performance at the 2017 Grammys below.

Watch Beyoncé Emerge as the Holy Mother at the 2017 Grammys

By
Roger Ratchet

People have been referring to Beyoncé as a deity for some time now, but it’s really been more focused on her as the messiah. In that instance, it’s meant comparisons that see her fan base call her Beysus.

But now that Beyoncé is pregnant and carrying twins, the better divine inspiration to compare Beyoncé to is perhaps the Virgin Mary. While I’m fairly certain that the conception of Beyoncé’s twins was certainly not immaculate, the truth is that maternity is granting Bey a certain regality and glow that is befitting the mother of god.

In honor of her highly acclaimed and game-changing album Lemonade, Beyoncé performed two of the more subdued tracks from the album: “Love Drought” and “Sandcastles.”

Bathed in stunning imagery that saw Beyoncé cloaked in elegant, flowy fabrics and adored and supported like Madonna (the artistic interpretations of Jesus’ mother, Mary, not the raunchy, old pop star), there was no detail left unspared.

If you didn’t walk away watching this performance without feeling like your life is all the better for it, then I question your humanity.

Watch The Weekend Dazzle With Daft Punk at the 2017 Grammys

By
Roger Ratchet

It’s been said that The Weeknd’s most recent turn toward more straight-forward pop music more than borrows a little bit from Michael Jackson. So in a nod that confirms Abel is borrowing from the late King of Pop, his set at the Grammys was introduced by Michael’s daughter, Paris Jackson.

But The Weeknd didn’t hit the Grammys stage by himself. He was joined by the French phenoms behind two of his biggest records from his new album: Daft Punk. Stepping out onstage like a pair of bad-ass Darth Vaders in training, the faceless French men strutted out to the instrumental of their first collaboration with Abel, “Starboy.”

Then, as Abel stepped onstage himself, they transitioned into the easy-breezy “I Feel It Coming,” which has shades of Michael Jackson’s “Human Nature.”

Check out their performance at the Grammys below:

Adele Opens 2017 Grammy Awards With Rousing Performance of “Hello,” Receives Standing Ovation (Obviously)

By
Devarrick Turner

Hello, its Adele… and the 59th Annual Grammy Awards. Adele opened music’s biggest night by singing her hit “Hello.”

Standing alone on a circular platform and wearing her signature floor length gown (albeit a little fancier for the Grammys), the British singer did what she does best and delivered a nearly flawless vocal. As I’m sure you’ve tried in the car or in the shower, you know singing “Hello” live is no easy task.

The performance may also serve as Grammy redemption for Adele. During her return to the Grammy stage after a four-year absence, Adele’s 2016 performance of “All I Ask” was underwhelming as it was tainted by audio issues. This may also be why she seemingly gave a sigh of relief after singing “Hello’s” final note to a standing ovation.

Adele had five Grammy nominations, including Album of the Year, with “Hello” earning three nominations alone. By the time she opened the show, Adele had already won two awards during the pre-telecast ceremony (Pop Vocal Album, Pop Solo Performance). By the end of the show, Adele racked up three more wins with Song of the Year, Record of the Year and Album of the Year.

RHOA Fans Rejoice! Producers Reportedly Want NeNe Leakes & Kim Zolciak to Return for Season 10

By

It may not have worked out for season 9, but word on the street is that Real Housewives faves, NeNe Leakes and Kim Zolciak may make a Real Housewives of Atlanta comeback for the show’s 10th season.

TMZ reported Thursday (Feb. 9) that RHOA producers want season 10 to be epic and what better way to please fans and ensure high ratings than the presence of the two original housewives? And let’s be honest, NeNe and Kim (and their frenemy relationship) were the true stars of the of the first few seasons.

TMZ also reports that producers have reached out to both women and they both have expressed interest in a possible return. However, neither have signed on a dotted line as contracts have yet to be written and put on the table.

Producers have tried pairing the duo in the past for a spin-off road trip-type show, but scheduling conflicts forced the idea to be shelved.

Rumors before the season 9 premiere suggested producers were also scrambling to get NeNe and Kim to return to the series. Both women denied the rumors and even claimed such conversations had never taken place.

However, to the surprise of many longtime fans, a new trailer for the second half of season 9 shows Kim will make a cameo appearance. She will attend fellow original cast member, Sheree Whitfield’s “Chateau Sheree” housewarming party, which is expected to air during the season 9 finale episode.

Although I was glad to see Kim exit RHOA in season 5 (because she was entering a new chapter of her life), I’m all in for her to return with NeNe in season 10. The two of them know how to bring the drama like no other and maybe Sheree can even try to “shift” Kim’s wig again!

Here’s one of my favorite NeNe/Kim clips and it didn’t even happen on the show!

Meet Myha Luong AKA “Lovely Mimi,” the Newest Addition to Love & Hip Hop Atlanta Season 6

Mimi times 2. Mimi squared. Another Mimi in town.

There are several wordplay phrases we can use to introduce the newest Love & Hip Hop Atlanta cast member. But without further ado, meet Myha Luong — better known as, “Lovely Mimi.”

The Vietnamese-American has relocated to Atlanta from Maryland to expand her nail salon business. She has gained a social media following due to her nail work, currently with 1.1 million followers on Instagram. Mimi entered the nail business when she was just 16 and owned her own shop by 24.

So how does a manicurist/nail artist get cast on Love & Hip Hop? The 25-year-old also has an interest in music (of course). Her latest effort is called “We Don’t Care” feat. 5ive.

No word if she will be working with any of the music producers on the show, but she has been added to the LHHATL season 6 cast. She has already filmed with cast members Jessica Dime and Tommie Lee.

NuMimi knows how to bring drama, too. Last year, she got into fight with her best friend which resulted in Mimi kicking the friend (and her family) out of their shared Atlanta house. The friend allegedly retaliated by having Mimi jumped.

The IG video she posted after being jumped also sparked controversy because of her use of the N-word. She tried to explain why she uses the word in another clip, but eventually deleted the post after people weren’t feeling her explanation.

Who do you think she will clash with on LHHATL? If she’s hanging with Dime and Tommie, NuMimi might be added to Joseline Hernandez’s hit list.

Love & Hip Hop Atlanta season 6 premieres March 6 on VH1.
