Rihanna Exes Chris Brown & Drake Settle Differences In “No Guidance” Video

Chris Brown and Drake drop their highly anticipated new video, “No Guidance.”

The former foes, turn friends settled their differences with a dance battle instead of taking the other route which has caused physical violence in the past. The cinematic clip runs for nine minutes and features Rihanna two ex-boyfriends, Chris Brown and Drake, playing out their real-life feud in a dramatic dance battle. Their original feud includes a huge brawl between their two camps at a nightclub in New York City in 2012. In the “No Guidance” video, the two hit up a Miami club as they come face to face in a dance battle.

The two former-foes mended their relationship and finally gave us “No Guidance,” a duet we’ve been waiting for since the “Deuces” era, on Chris Brown’s latest album Indigo. The single quickly went No. 1 and Drake dropped some hints that there was a music video in the works back in June.

Early Friday morning Chris Brown posted a photo to his Instagram page of he and Aubrey together with stern looks on their faces standing in front of a cityscape backdrop with the caption “Somethings coming.”

The short and sweet caption gave off Drake’s infamous “Scary hours” vibes and fans began to speculate if it meant the now platinum hit “No Guidance” video was on its way, or even possibly new music.

Drake already told the world through social media that he’s in “album mode,” and the Toronto rapper has definitely been putting in work in the studio. He dropped a two-pack of loosey singles after the Toronto Raptors won the NBA Championship in June, and just hours ago appeared on a new single from Rick Ross “Gold Roses.”

Although fans are still reveling in the greatness that was Indigo, new music wouldn’t come as a surprise because we know Chris Brown never stops working. Even Jamaican-American artist Sean Kingston revealed that he has a collab with Breezy coming on his forthcoming project Made in Jamaica.

Nicki Minaj Blasts Former Manager Big Fendi In Epic Queen Radio Showdown: You Thought I Was A ‘Brainless Ho’

Nicki Minaj came face to face with her former manager Big Fendi on the latest Queen Radio. She told him he made the mistake of thinking she was a ‘brainless ho.

It was an epic edition of Queen Radio on July 26, when Nicki Minaj brought on her first manager Big Fendi as a guest. He discovered her back in the mid-aughts on My Space and changed her name from Nicki Maraj — her real name — to what it is today. While they had a bad falling out when she left him to be managed Debra Antney and her Mizay Entertainment, they maturely came together to discuss what went wrong in their working relationship.

“The mistake you made was that you thought I was some brainless ho that you was going to tell what to do,” Nicki told Big Fendi, though she did admit “This man changed my life ultimately.” The 36-year-old “Chun-Li” rapper then told him what finally made her decide to break ties with him. “The last straw was when you put me on a DVD and the caption said ‘Super P***y'” she revealed.

Fans loved that after all these years they were able to sit down and talk things out. “They are hilarious!! Big Fendi and Nicki Minaj!! I’m glad they are back on good terms!! Good sh*t!! That’s right Nicki!” one person tweeted while another wrote, “I’m really glad Nicki is defending herself and setting the record straight with Big Fendi. There was so many clickbait articles and jabs taken over the years. Really didn’t think this moment would’ve happened. Maturity, growth and forgiveness”

Another fan tweeted “Yo Nicki got Fendi on #QueenRadio, and if anybody know Nicki come up, and the old days on The Come Up DVD you know that’s f**king EPIC and unexpected! I’m gagging! I’m so happy they actually squashing old beef. That’s big of both of them to have this convo in front of the world!”

In 2014, Big Fendi spoke out about discovering Nicki and the aftermath of their split on Power 105.1’s The Breakfast Club. “I didn’t get nothing,” he said of their parting. “Nah, Nicki tried to offer me a finder’s fee of $15,000. I laughed at it. Can’t be serious…Actually, I own the trademark to Nicki Minaj. I own NickiMinaj.com. I actually [own her trade]. So, in a minute you gon’ see a lot of things coming off those shelves.”

He added “Nicki started with me in ’06, ’07. I met her on MySpace…Her name was Nicki Maraj when I met her. I changed her name to Nicki Minaj. And I actually got into a big argument with her family because she felt like—Nicki didn’t like the name Minaj. She felt like I was degrading her.” Nicki later dumped Big Fendi to be managed by Waka Flocka Flame‘s mom Debra. “She was like ‘I like your artist. We need to set up a meeting’…Nicki went out there and then Debbie brainwashed her. Debbie got out there, Debbie got her little tactics,” before Nicki signed to Young Money Entertainment.

Selena Gomez Wants To Become The Next Angelina Jolie Or Oprah & Make An ‘Impact’ On The World

Selena Gomez wants to make the world a better place and is hoping to do it through even more impactful charity work than she’s already doing. She wants to use her powerful voice to really help people.

Selena Gomez is no stranger to generous charity work, from becoming the youngest ever UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador to making numerous surprise children’s hospital visits. She loves to brighten the lives of others and is looking to do more of that in addition to being an actress and singing superstar. “Selena is eager to pursue different interests besides her career in film, TV and music. She will never leave that aspect of her life, but she is looking for other things to motivate her. A gritty role or an amazing song will always grab her heart, but she wants to pursue more charity and become a woman like Angelina Jolie or Oprah where her voice means something and makes a constant impact,” a source close to the 27-year-old tells our source EXCLUSIVELY.

“She doesn’t think it will turn into something where she would join the political world, but she would love to help in that world and help people less fortunate since she knows she has an amazing platform already with people her age and young kids. But she wants to touch all people, young and old. She feels it will make everything she does in entertainment worth it by doing more to help people,” our insider continues.

“She is constantly working on music and is often in the studio recording tracks, [although] an album is not imminent. That is a constant thing she does because it’s an easy process for her that she can get studio time anytime she wants it. She also is looking to do something on Songland if it gets renewed,” our source adds, referring to the NBC talent show for undiscovered songwriters to pitch their tunes to music superstars.

Selena just turned 27  on July 22 and celebrated with friends in Rome, Italy. She’s just enjoying her life and her friends these days and is thankful for all the love and support she has. “Selena is in such a great place right now and refuses to live her life by anyone else’s standards, whether that be family, friends, or her fans. She is taking every moment as it comes and isn’t feeling pressured whatsoever to move forward in any specific direction in regards to her personal life, or her music. Selena has been working on music because she wants to. It’s very therapeutic for her and it’s her greatest passion. She isn’t focused on dating right now and has the most fun in the studio and simply hanging with her closest friends,” a second source tells us EXCLUSIVELY.

Diddy & Lori Harvey: How She Helped Uplift Him After Kim Porter’s Death — She ‘Makes Him Happy’

Diddy and Lori Harvey have been spotted spending time together in recent months, and now we know why.

Diddy, 49, and Lori Harvey, 22, were photographed enjoying a night out in New York City together this week. They both wore blue and white stripes and their coordinated outfits further fueled rumors that they’re dating. They’ve also been spotted together multiple times this year, including at a reggae music festival in March in Miami. Many fans are convinced they’re a couple, but a source close to Diddy tells HollywoodLife EXCLUSIVELY that things between the music mogul and the much younger beauty are not necessarily what they seem.

“Lori has been friends with the whole family for years,” says our source. “But she and Diddy have gotten a lot closer over the past six months or so, really since Kim’s (Porter) death because Lori was very close to Kim too. She was grieving too, so she was really able to be there for Diddy in his grief. She uplifts him. This has been one of the hardest times of Diddy’s life, if not the hardest, so anyone that can bring light to his life he cherishes. And Lori has a way of making him smile, she makes him happy, they’re good friends.”

Diddy has been mourning the death of Kim Porter, the mother of his children  Christian Combs, 21, and twin daughters, D’Lila and Jessie, 13. She passed away suddenly from pneumonia in Nov. 2018 at just 47-years-old. Her shocking death hit the hip hop legend very hard because, according to him, they were “more than soulmates.”

Diddy’s close relationship with Lori is confusing for many fans because she’s previously been linked to his son Justin Combs, 25. But a source tells HollywoodLife that Lori has “always denied” that they dated. “People have really jumped to a lot of conclusions when it comes to Lori,” says our source. “She’s been “linked” to so many men, and then it goes from being linked to people saying she’s in a full on relationship. She’s always denied dating Justin, she’s been close to the entire Combs family for years and says people just jumped to their own conclusions about her and Justin.”

Previously, the 23-year-old admitted to the Telegraph she always felt different from Kim, Khloe, Kourtney and little sis Kylie growing up because they had "curves" and "boobs".

"My sisters are a lot curvier than me," she said. "They have boobs and I don’t have boobs. Growing up being this little twiggy girl, I saw my sisters and always thought 'oh no am I supposed to be more sexy like them?'"

She added: "I almost felt like I didn’t fit in for a part of my life."

Kendall differs in many ways from her KUWTK siblings; she gravitates more toward the runway side of modeling, is certainly less vocal about her romantic relationships, and remains the only one without children.

"I'm not necessarily a lot like them," she said. "I like that I have a different vibe to everyone. I like to do different things. And that's OK."

According to the interviewer, questions about Kendall's personal income was "firmly off the cards"; however she did admit she has no problem spending her hard-earned cash.

"We’re a very female-heavy, work-driven family. We all work really hard," she said. "It's an empowering feeling to be able to give yourself a little gift that you know you’ll love for a long time."

"I love learning from other women and feeding off each other and supporting each other," she continued, adding her most treasured possession is her "female relationships."

"To have women around me now – whether it’s friends or family – it’s super important for me.”

Blue Ivy Carter Steals the Show In Beyonce's Stunning Music Video for 'Spirit' From 'The Lion King'

"Spirit" is the first track of Beyonce's compliation album "The Lion King: The Gift," which she calls her "love letter" to Africa.

Beyonce's music video for "Spirit" from Disney's "The Lion King" is here and it's absolutely breathtaking.

The video, which dropped during ABC News' primetime special "The Lion King: Can You Feel The Love Tonight" with Robin Roberts Tuesday night, not only features stunning visuals, but it also includes a cameo by Beyonce and Jay-Z's daughter Blue Ivy Carter, who stole the show.

In the music video, which was filmed in Havasu Falls in the Grand Canyon, Beyonce is seen alongside incredible dancers as hit their choreography in front of the beautiful scenery, which included a crystal-clear waterfall. The singer, who had 12 outfit changes, donned almost all the colors of the rainbow with her colorful, majestic ensembles.

Towards the beginning of the video, Blue Ivy made her entrance in a stunning, lavender gown. Grabbing her mother's hand, Blue Ivy is seen striking a pose alongside Beyonce and the dancers. And just like that, a star was born!

Also featured in the video were multiple clips from the upcoming live-action "Lion King," in which Beyonce voices Nala.

During her interview with ABC News Tuesday, Beyonce told Roberts about the inspiration behind the music video.

"The concept of the video is to show how God is the painter, and natural beauty in nature needs no art direction," she said. "It's the beauty of color, the beauty of melanin, the beauty of tradition."

She added, "It was important that we weren't just inspired by Africa but that we actually included and learned from the motherland."

"Spirit" is the first track off Beyonce's compilation album "The Lion King: The Gift," which features artists like Childish Gambino, Kendrick Lamar and Pharrell. The singer's husband Jay-Z is also on the album, as well as Blue Ivy.

"This soundtrack is a love letter to Africa and I wanted to make sure we found the best talent from Africa, and not just use some of the sounds and did my interpretation of it," Beyonce added to ABC. "I wanted it to be authentic to what is beautiful about the music in Africa."

"A lot of the drums, the chants, all of these incredible new sounds, mixed with some of the producers from America, we've kind of created our genre," she continued. "And I feel like the soundtrack, it becomes visual in your mind, it's a soundscape, it's more than just the music because each song tells the story of the film."

According to Beyonce, the original cartoon version of "The Lion King" was the first Disney film that made her cry.

She explained, "It's not many films that the parents can go and feel the way I feel about I feel about The Lion King and...pass that legacy on to their kids."

"I grew up watching The Lion King," she added. It's the first Disney movie brought me to tears."

"The Lion King" roars into theaters on July 19. "The Lion King: The Gift" compilation album drops the same day.

Cardi B Defends Getting ‘Down & Dirty’ In Her Rap Songs: ‘That’s What People Wanna Hear’

Cardi B is coming hard for Jermaine Dupri after he called her and some other female artists ‘strippers rapping.’ She says that her rhymes about getting down and dirty in her songs are what fans want.

Cardi B has put record producer/songwriter Jermaine Dupri on blast after the 46-year-old said today’s crop of female hip hop artists are “strippers rapping.” In a July 11 Instagram video the 26-year-old looked into the camera and preached fire. “Okay guys I have seen a lot of people saying nowadays female rappers only talk about their p***y and sh*t now that Jermaine Dupri brought it up I’m going to say something about it,” she began.

“First of all, I rap about my p***y because she’s my best friend and second of all it’s because it seems like that’s what people want to hear,” Cardi passionately explained. “I don’t give a f**k so let me tell you something: When I did ‘Be Careful’ people was talking mad sh*t in the beginning like ‘What the f**k is this?’ ‘This is not what I was expecting.” The song’s lyrics allude to husband Offset breaking her heart and allegedly cheating on her. “It’s like if that’s what people ain’t trying to hear then I’m going to start rapping about my p***y again,” she said.

Grammy winning Cardi was far from done. “And second of all, female rappers who be rapping their asses off who don’t talk about their p***y and don’t be talking about getting down and dirty and y’all don’t be supporting them and they be mad dope. Bloggers don’t support them, they don’t give them the recognition. So don’t blame that sh*t on us when y’all not the ones who are supporting them.”

Warning, the audio in her rant is NSFW:

During an appearance on PEOPLE Now, Jermaine said he helped Da Brat, 45, pave the way for today’s crop of female rappers. “Brat was the first female artist to go platinum, so we together broke the mold…and since then female rappers have been able to sustain and sell a lot of records, more records than guys, but before Brat that wasn’t happening,” he said.

Then he dissed Cardi, as well as Nicki Minaj, 36, and up and comer Meghan Thee Stallion, 24, when asked how he felt about  them. “I can’t really say. I feel they’re all rapping about the same thing. I don’t think they’re showing us who’s the best rapper. For me, it’s like strippers rapping and as far as rap goes I’m not getting who’s the best,” he responded.

R. Kelly, 52, Arrested & Taken Into Custody On Sex Trafficking Charges In Chicago — Report

R. Kelly is facing new charges of ‘child porn and obstruction of justice’ and more as of July 11, after already being charged with 11 counts of sexual abuse in May.

The charges keep piling on for R. Kelly, 52. Despite pleading not guilty to 11 felonies for sexual abuse in June and an attempt to defend his name in an explosive interview with CBS in March, the R&B singer was arrested on federal sex trafficking charges in Chicago on July 11, TMZ reported. The charges are part of a 13-count indictment from the Northern District of Illinois, which specifically include charges of “child porn and obstruction of justice,” spokesperson Joseph Fitzpatrick from The U.S. Attorney’s Office of the Northern District told the outlet. Our correspondent has reached out to Kelly’s lawyer for comment, but did not hear back at the time of publication.

This latest development in Kelly’s ongoing legal battle comes after he was handed five counts of aggravated criminal sexual abuse, four counts of aggravated criminal sexual assault and two counts of criminal sexual assault on May 30, TMZ also reported. That was after Kelly turned himself into the Chicago PD on Feb. 22, following a 10-count indictment of aggravated criminal sexual abuse that allegedly involved four women, three who were minors at the time of the alleged attacks.

Shortly before the grand jury handed down the charges in February, both CNN and celebrity lawyer Michael Avenatti claimed to have watched a video of Kelly allegedly having sex with a 14-year-old girl — Kelly’s lawyer, Steve Greenberg, denied this accusation in a lengthy statement to our correspondent.

In 2002, Kelly was arrested on 21 counts of making child pornography in relation to one girl, but he was eventually found not guilty (in addition to denying the claims). However, there has been renewed interest in Kelly after sex cult allegations surfaced in 2017, and after alleged victims of sex abuse came forward in the six-part Lifetime documentary Surviving R. Kelly, which aired in Jan. 2019. Kelly has continued to deny every allegation against him.

‘The Lion King’ Review: A Visual Masterpiece That Will Be Timeless Just Like The Original

‘The Lion King’ isn’t just a movie, it’s a cinematic force to be reckoned with. The live-action remake is a stunning visual achievement that’s anchored by a stellar cast that includes Chiwetel Ejiofor, Beyonce, Donald Glover, Billy Eichner, and more.

The 1994 version of The Lion King is a classic film. The kids and adults of that generation experienced an animated film that was so powerful it continues to be one of the most beloved films of all-time. So, everyone was surprised when the live-action adaptation of The Lion King was announced. Why mess with a film that’s already pretty much perfect? It’s a big gamble to take but it pays off for director Jon Favreau and his incredible voice cast. Even though the live-action movie is a story we know and love, there’s something uniquely special about this version of The Lion King

For one, it’s visually magnificent. Favreau has brought these characters to life in a totally new way. The visual effects are breathtaking. The wild animals look so natural, even while they’re moving their mouths to talk and singing. On just the visual side alone, The Lion King is a touchstone film in that regard.

The cast is stacked with major names like Donald Glover as Simba, Beyonce as Nala, Billy Eichner as Timon, Seth Rogen as Pumbaa, John Oliver as Sazu, and Chiwetel Ejiofor as Scar. James Earl Jones returns as the voice of Mufasa because only James Earl Jones can play Mufasa. JD McCrary and Shahadi Wright Joseph are delightful as young Simba and young Nala. You just want to take these little cubs home with you. They truly nail each and every scene.

The ultimate scene stealers of the film are Billy and Seth. Hollywood has found its next legendary dynamic duo. Every time that quippy meerkat and adorable warthog graces the screen, you will undoubtedly be laughing out loud. While the movie is mostly an exact replication of the original, Timon and Pumbaa have new jokes that get just as many laughs. Their repartee is spot-on perfection. Please cast Billy and Seth in every single movie together.

Your favorite songs from the original movie are featured in the film. Donald and Beyonce’s version of “Can’t You Feel The Love Tonight” is beautiful. Beyonce’s original song “Spirit” is a powerful anthem during a crucial scene in the movie. Nala doesn’t have a solo in the original film, but when you’ve got Beyonce, you’ve got to let the woman sing her own song. Beyonce puts her heart and soul into this ballad. Just give this woman the Oscar for Best Original Song already!

Regardless of how you feel about remakes, the live-action The Lion King is a spectacular film. Now we have not just one but two versions to enjoy forever. The Lion King will be released on July 19.

Watch the trailer below..

Mariah Carey Confesses She’s Only Been With 5 Men In Her Entire Life

Although Mariah Carey’s relationships have been highly publicized over the years, she claims in a new interview that her love life isn’t actually all that interesting. In fact, she considers herself a ‘prude.’

 

  Mariah Carey, 49, has made headlines for dating (and even marrying!) younger men, but she says that there’s more to her dating history than that. “I haven’t had that many, but there has been a variety pack,” Mariah told Cosmopolitan. “I’ve only been with five people in my life, so I’m kind of a prude, honestly, compared to most others in the field.” She didn’t name the five people directly, but it’s pretty easy to discern four of them right off the bat. Of course, there are her two ex-husbands, Tommy Mottola, 69, and Nick Cannon, 38.

Then, there’s James Packer, 51, who Mariah got engaged to in January 2016, only to end their relationship before the end of the year. She started dating Bryan Tanaka, 36, who she’d known since 2006, just weeks after ending things with James. They broke up in April 2017, but eventually got back together and have been dating ever since. The identity of the fifth person is unclear, as Mariah has been linked to a few other men over the years. During the interview, she also got candid about her relationship with Tommy, who was 20 years her senior.

“You might want to picture a child bride,” Mariah admitted. “There was an effort to keep me this all-American, whatever that means, girl. It was very controlled. There was no freedom for me as a human being. It was almost like being a prisoner.” Meanwhile, Mariah remains very amicable with Nick, who she shares twins, Monroe and Moroccan, with. They often spend time together as a family on holidays and even at red carpet events.

   

 Jason Kim for Cosmopolitan

 Regardless of what goes on in Mariah’s personal or professional life, though, she knows that she can always count on her fans to stand by her. “After what I’ve been through, who really gives a s*** if my monitor broke, fell off, came out of my ears because the stupid robe was too loose?” she asked, recalling her disastrous 2016 New Year’s Eve performance in Times Square. “These things happen and it’s over. My true fans stick with me, and the rest of the people will get over it.”

Michael Jackson Fan Clubs in France Sue ‘Leaving Neverland’ Accusers for Defamation

Three Michael Jackson fan clubs in France have sued 'Leaving Neverland' accusers Wade Robson and James Safechuck for defamation.

Three Michael Jackson fan clubs in France have filed a lawsuit against Wade Robson and James Safechuck, the two men who accused the late pop star of sexual abuse in the HBO documentary Leaving Neverland.

The three organizations – Michael Jackson Community, MJ Street and On the Line – accused Robson and Safechuck of posthumously damaging Jackson’s reputation. While libel laws in the United States and the United Kingdom do not extend to deceased people, there are laws in France against the public denunciation of a dead person, The Associated Press reports.

Interestingly, the fan clubs are only seeking a symbolic judgement of one euro each. But John Branca, co-executor of Jackson’s estate, suggested the decision to sue in France was part of a larger effort to change libel laws at home.

“The Estate is in full support of [lawyer Emmanuel] Ludot’s efforts on behalf of Michael and his beloved fans in France and across the globe that the truth shall ultimately prevail,” Branca said. “We remain hopeful that a victory in France will soon fuel a movement in the United States to finally explore changes in the law to afford defamation protection for the deceased.” A rep did not immediately reply to a request to see if the Jackson estate was involved in the suit.

A representative for Robson and Safechuck did not immediately return request for comment.

Emmanuel Ludot also did not immediately return a request for comment. However, the statement provided by the Jackson estate did quote Ludot as calling the allegations against Jackson “extremely serious” and likening them to a “genuine lynching.”

Leaving Neverland premiered in January before arriving on HBO in March. In the film, Robson and Safechuck described in often excruciating detail the way Jackson allegedly groomed and sexually abused them while they were children. The Jackson estate denied all the allegations, questioned Safechuck and Robson’s credibility and filed a lawsuit against HBO, claiming the film violated a non-disparagement clause in the network’s 1992 contract to air a Jackson concert film.
