'RHOSLC' Star Jen Shah's Telemarketing Scheme Victim Claims To Have Suffered From Heart Attacks Due

'RHOSLC' Star Jen Shah's Telemarketing Scheme Victim Claims To Have Suffered From Heart Attacks Due To The TV Personality Scamming Her Out Of Money: My Overall Health Is Forever Changed A 60-year-old woman is demanding that 'The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City' star Jen Shah pay the full price for what she allegedly did to her. If you didn't know, this past July, Jen Shah pled guilty to money-swindling after she was suspected to be the ring leader of a nationwide telemarketing scheme. The notorious scam reportedly targeted hundreds of elderly individuals, and because of the heinous crime, she was charged with one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud.

Jen Shah Jen Shah's sentencing date has been set for January 6, 2023, and she's facing up to 14 years behind bars. During a recent episode of 'The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City,' the 49-year-old revealed that she had been suicidal amid the legal situation, which ultimately led to a hospital visit. However, one of her unnamed victims seemingly has no sympathy for Shah and is severely struggling due to her hefty debt that was acquired following the Housewife and her unruly coin-collecting circus. According to RadarOnline, the woman gave an emotional statement in her letter to the judge, and it's in her wishes that Shah receives the entire 14-year sentence and runs her the cash she's cost her. She argued that Shah's immoral acts had not only put a massive strain on her bank account but on her well-being... as a whole. The accuser wrote, "Not only has [Shah's] actions caused financial stress for me, I have suffered emotional and physical stress due to her actions as ell. My overall health is forever changed."

Jen Shah Apparently, the Bravolite, along with her "team," were aiding others in launching their own websites to sell an array of products that would generate a lucrative income. Shah's alleged prey said that she continued to provide a fee while trusting their word that the business would soon offer a promising potential. Eventually, she realized that there was no profit to show for it, and she accumulated over $30,000 in debt. She told the court: "Sleeping at night became increasingly difficult because I was constantly worried about my finances. I only had a small pension. It was not enough to pay my mortgage, utilities, household expenses, [and] monthly credit card payments across four different accounts." The woman ultimately suffered a heart attack but still pursued a career at Shah's company until she experienced another heart attack, which was supposedly a result of her financial frenzy. "I believe that I should receive full restitution from Jennifer Shah to cover the entire amount that I invested and lost as a result of her fraudulent activities." She's asking for double what she was gypped out of. Shah has yet to respond to the claims publicly.

Jen Shah Over a week ago, she took to her Instagram account to announce that she would not be attending the reunion show for 'The Real Housewives Salt Lake City' after Bravo's initial de-invitation. "I was informed by Bravo executives that I was not invited to attend Season 3 Reunion. I was disappointed because I would have no venue to confront inaccuracies and address my storyline with cast members." She continued, "Two and a half weeks ago, I was invited to attend. I was elated to learn I would no have a voice at the reunion. I was clear with Bravo that out of respect for the courts and a standing judicial order, I would not be in a position to discuss anything related to my legal case or sentencing." Shah concluded with: "Bravo found this unsatisfactory and said they expected to discuss this 'storyline.' That expectation has no regard for me or my family's well-being; so under legal advice, I will not be attending reunion. I need to focus on the most important thing in my life-my family."

Celina Powell Reiterates Claim That Trey Songz Sexually Abused Her Amid Singer's Multiple Assault Ac

Trey Songz, Celina Powell Celina Powell Reiterates Claim That Trey Songz Sexually Abused Her Amid Singer's Multiple Assault Accusations: I've Never Lied About The R-Word Social media model Celina Powell has a few things to add about Trey Songz's abuse allegations. The socialite gave her alleged horror story encounter with the singer recently, three years after filing a police report accusing Songz of sexual abuse.

In a video nearly three minutes long posted to TikTok, Powell, 27, doubled down on claims the "Bottoms Up" artist previously forced himself on her in 2019. In 2020, the celebrity mistress circulated headlines after going public with her story about Songz, 38, alleging he locked her in a bathroom and made her engage in sexual activities with him. Powell said she decided to share her story again to "be petty," but also warned women to stay away from the entertainer.

As previously reported, Songz has been accused by several women of being physically and sexually violent. Most recently, the R&B star was accused of punching a woman in the face and dragging her by her hair. Reposting an article of his latest abuse allegation, Powell stated: "This is coming from multiple b*tches....and who was the first one? Me. - And who didn't believe me? Everybody! Why? Because I was a clout chaser, which given, yea I lied about getting pregnant but I've never lied about getting, the r-word,"

Powell went on and gave details about how the incident went down. Allegedly, she and a friend were pulled at a club to join Songz in his section. Subsequently, her phone was confiscated and she was forced to travel with the singer through the remainder of the night. The social influencer claimed she repeatedly asked for her phone back so she could go home, but Songz repeatedly refused. She stated: "We get into a sprinter van with hella girls, I don't f*ck around like that...If it's not me and you I'm not down. So I then tell Trey like 'yo I'm not with the sh*ts I'm out...I'm not f*cking sitting in a bus full of b*tches it's not me',...he's like 'uh, no you're not', slams the door, pushed me...I'm like 'whatever, wherever we're going I'll just leave from there' " @celinapowellduh #greenscreen stay away from this crazy person #fyp #treysongz #TellToryMoveOver ? original sound - Celina? She continued: "We go to a strip club, I tell his security like 'hey babe, can I have my phone'...his security was like 'go ask Trey', I go ask Trey, Trey was like 'fuck no, you're not leaving' sat me down and was like 'yo don't f*cking move' "

It seems things only escalated as the evening progressed. Powell continued, alleging she was held against her will and eventually forced into sex, stating: "The night just keeps getting longer and longer....we go to his house, again I ask (for my phone) he was like 'yo if you ask me one more time I'm gonna throw your phone over the f*cking balcony'. My duma** asked again, and there goes my phone...Then he proceeds to lock me in a f*cking bathroom for hours. My friend comes in and opens the door and finds me and I'm like basically crying, I'm like 'yo we gotta f*cking go'. He then grabs me, throws me in the f*cking room. I leave, I call the cops and yea...stay away from Trey Songz."

After claiming to have been thrown in the room, Powell made a facial insinuation for viewers to fill in the blanks of what happened next. During a 2020 interview, Powell claimed Songz made her have sex with him multiple times. The social media personality added the singer peed on her as well. The two exchanged verbal jabs online following the interview, with Songz denying any wrongdoing. However, Powell went on to post a copy of the police report detailing the incident. We focused on the wrong part of that interview, we gotta get Trey Songz outta here pic.twitter.com/hRLC4wO2Tf — ade (@earth2R3X) August 19, 2020 To date, Songz has not been found guilty of any of the abuse claims against him. Though accused several times, most cases have been dismissed.

ABC Issues Apology After Accidentally Using Migos Member Quavo's Photo During Remembrance Tribute To

Posted by lmcradio — Thu, 29 Dec 2022 16:50 GMT

ABC Issues Apology After Accidentally Using Migos Member Quavo's Photo During Remembrance Tribute To Takeoff ABC is not America's favorite network right now, and Takeoff fans aren't hesitating to let them know that. Recently, the famous broadcasting company unveiled the official compilation for their 'The Year: 2022' tribute, which recognized the illustrious lives of icons we've lost over the past year. The eight-minute video featured Coolio, Irene Cara, Stephen "tWitch" Boss, Sidney Poitier, and (supposedly) Migos rapper Takeoff, among others. However, it quickly went viral-and not so much in a good way-when viewers realized that an image of fellow member Quavo flashed across the screen instead of his late groupmate/nephew, Takeoff.

Takeoff When speaking of the remembrance visual, an angered Twitter user wrote, "ABC didn't have anyone that knew which member of The Migos was Takeoff and which was Quavo? SMH."

Following the backlash, ABC's social media team eventually took to their platform and addressed the controversial matter, stating that it was an "unfortunate error." The initial reel has since been deleted and upgraded to the corrected version.

As you may know, in November, 28-year-old Takeoff was fatally shot at a bowling alley in Houston, Texas. Reportedly, the shooting was a result of a dice game gone wrong. Earlier this month, a man by the name of Patrick Xavier Clark was arrested as an alleged suspect in Takeoff's murder case.

(from left to right) Offset, Quavo, Takeoff The Georgia-born lyricist was one-third of the trap-music trio Migos, who rose to prominence with chart-topping hits such as "Bad and Boujee," "Stir Fry," and "Walk It Talk It."

Update: Megan Thee Stallion Wins Early Round In Contract War Against Estranged Record Label 1501 Cer

Posted by lmcradio — Thu, 29 Dec 2022 16:22 GMT

Carl Crawford, Megan Thee Stallion Update: Megan Thee Stallion Wins Early Round In Contract War Against Estranged Record Label 1501 Certified Entertainment Update: (Dec. 29, 2022): Megan Thee Stallion has just scored a small win against her estranged record label 1501 Certified Entertainment. According to reports, A Texas judge sided with the "Anxiety" rapper yesterday (Dec. 28) by denying 1501's request that her 2021 album "Something for Thee Hotties" be declared something less than an album under her contract. This means that Megan's $1 million lawsuit against the label can proceed to trial intact.

As previously reported, the label, owned by Carl Crawford, argued that the court should bypass a trial and rule outright that "Something for Thee Hotties" was not an "album" under Megan's contract because it featured tracks already available and purportedly "failed to follow the proper approval procedures." However, Megan disagreed, arguing that she fully complied with the terms of her deal regarding "Something for Thee Hotties." [VIA] Original story: (Feb. 23, 2022): It looks like Megan Thee Stallion is suing her record label, again! According to reports, the "Hot Girl Summer" rapper has filed a new lawsuit against her record label, 1501 Certified Entertainment, over what constitutes an album. This all stems from her 2021 release, Something For Thee Hotties which was a collection of singles that contained all original production, unlike a mixtape. In her suit, Megan Thee Stallion claims 1501 informed her two months after its release that it did not meet the definition of an "Album" under her recording agreement, and therefore did not satisfy her contract's "Minimum Recording Commitment." Watch Video on YouTube According to the suit, Megan and her attorney's had a difference of opinion, stating that, "'Something for Thee Hotties' clearly meets the definition of 'Album' under the recording agreement because it is not less than forty-five (45) minutes in length." According to her lawyers, the only requirement in Megan's contract to define what constitutes an album is a length of 45 minutes or more. Reportedly, Megan Thee stallion is seeking a non-monetary declaratory judgement that the record meets the definition of an album, satisfying the terms of her contract and attorney's fees. Her legal team believes the label wants to keep her locked in her contract for longer, so they can profit from her sales.

Megan Thee Stallion 1501 Certified Entertainment owner Carl Crawford wasn't too fond of being sued again by the Houston rapper, and took to Instagram to share his thoughts. He wrote, "We're Not bullying nobody.. That's yet ANOTHER LIE and fake narrative made up by some of the best PR people u would ever come across #Nowwhatsreallyreal"

Carl Crawford He then posted an emoji of a pinocchio nose, seemingly implying that someone is lying.

He then shared his frustrations with being sued 3 times by Megan The Stallion and her team. "I've been sued 3 times by the same people and I'm the bully?"

Whoopi Goldberg Apologizes Again For Controversial 'Holocaust Was Not About Race' Remarks Following

Whoopi Goldberg Apologizes Again For Controversial 'Holocaust Was Not About Race' Remarks Following Accusations She Was 'Doubling Down' On Them Whoopi Goldberg is, once again, addressing her holocaust comments - but she is not doubling down on them. The Sister Act star found herself at the center of controversy and a two-week suspension from The View when she said earlier this year that the holocaust was "not about race." Since then, Whoopi Goldberg took part in an interview with the Sunday Times of London to promote Till, the film in which she plays Alma Carthan, the mother of civil rights pioneer Mamie Till-Mobley, whose 14-year-old son, Emmett Till, was tortured and killed in 1955. While on the topic of race, Whoopi Goldberg seemed to reiterate her past controversial remarks.

She is now apologizing after sparking controversy ... again. In a statement released via her rep, Goldberg said, "Recently while doing press in London, I was asked about my comments from earlier this year. I tried to convey to the reporter what I had said and why, and attempted to recount that time. It was never my intention to appear as if I was doubling down on hurtful comments, especially after talking with and hearing people like rabbis and old and new friends weighing in." She added, "I'm still learning a lot and believe me, I heard everything everyone said to me. I believe that the Holocaust was about race, and I am still as sorry now as I was then that I upset, hurt and angered people. My sincere apologies again, especially to everyone who thought this was a fresh rehash of the subject. I promise it was not. In this time of rising antisemitism, I want to be very clear when I say that I always stood with the Jewish people and always will. My support for them has not wavered and never will." BREAKING: Whoopi Goldberg is back on #TheView after her two-week suspension from the show pic.twitter.com/Epg8clumtE — The Chat (@LiveOnTheChat) February 14, 2022 While suspended from The View, Goldberg, who makes $5 million per year from the popular talk show, was without pay - meaning the EGOT entertainer reportedly lost out on a $192,000 paycheck during her hiatus. During her interview with the Sunday Times, Goldberg indicated there is a debate about whether Jews are a race or a religious community. She said, "My best friend said, 'Not for nothing is there no box on the census for the Jewish race. So that leads me to believe that we're probably not a race.'" She added, "The oppressor is telling you what you are. Why are you believing them? They're Nazis. Why believe what they're saying?" What are your thoughts on the entire situation?

T.J. Holmes Files For Divorce From Estranged Wife Marilee Fiebig Amid Amy Robach Affair

Posted by lmcradio — Thu, 29 Dec 2022 15:56 GMT

T.J. Holmes, Marilee Fiebig, Amy Robach T.J. Holmes Files For Divorce From Estranged Wife Marilee Fiebig Amid Amy Robach Affair It looks like T.J. Holmes will be a single man soon, at least legally speaking. According to new reports, "Good Morning America" anchor T.J. Holmes has filed for divorce from his wife Marilee Fiebig in New York City on Wednesday (Dec. 28.). The couple's split comes two days after T.J. Holmes was reportedly spotted at an Atlanta airport with ABC news reporter Amy Robach.

T.J. Holmes, Marilee Fiebig & their daughter This development follows after paparazzi captured the journalist getting close to Amy Robach, 49, on numerous occasions in November. As previously reported, the alleged couple made headlines after news broke that they were having an affair. Images went viral online of the pair holding hands in a car and enjoying drinks at a bar. One picture even showed Holmes touching his colleague's butt as she puts items in the trunk of a car. A source said: "They always had a spark and their work trips away together brought them even closer." The pair have been working together since the fall of 2020 when they headlined "GMA3: What You Need to Know," both reporters were married at the time. The insider noted that Robach and Holmes, 45, "have been trying to keep their relationship a secret until they were ready to announce."

Holmes tied the knot with Marilee Fiebig in 2010, three years after leaving his ex-wife Amy Ferson. Fiebig and Holmes share one child together, daughter Sabine. The media personality shares 2 more children, Brianna and Jaiden, with his first wife. Holmes previously bragged about life as a family man over the years. He said: "My family and I are closer, my individual net worth has gone up every year since we met, I've learned a second language, I'm healthier, I use the N-word less, I listen to Sunday church service more, I'm a better friend, I'm more forgiving than I used to be, I'm more involved in charitable work." In 2014, Holmes wrote: "In every way, I'm better off because I'm married. So, for me, a successful marriage has revolved around this principle: I like who I am with her."

T.J Holmes & his daughter Six years later, the CNN correspondent doubled down on those comments, while reflecting on his marriage to Fiebig amid their 10th anniversary. He said: "Asking her for another 10 years would be asking too much. Another 10 months? That may even be a stretch. If she gave me another 10 weeks, I should consider myself lucky. If she puts up with me another 10 days, I'd be grateful." He added, "But if she would even spare another 10 minutes of her time for me today, I should consider myself blessed. This is MARILEE FIEBIG HOLMES, y'all. And I, T. J. Holmes, do solemnly swear ... that I .... was HER #decadechallenge." In Robach's case, she married Andrew Shue in 2010, two years after leaving her first husband Tim McIntosh, with whom she shares daughters Ava, 19, and Analise, 16. What are your thoughts on T.J.

Bill Cosby Announces Potential Comedy Tour For 2023 Not Long After Being Hit w/ New Sexual Assult La

Posted by lmcradio — Wed, 28 Dec 2022 21:56 GMT

Bill Cosby Announces Potential Comedy Tour For 2023 Not Long After Being Hit w/ New Sexual Assult Lawsuit: When I Come Out of This, I Feel That I Will Be Able To Perform & Be The Bill Cosby That My Audience Knows Me To Be Bill Cosby might be going on tour! The controversial comedian, once praised as "America's Favorite Dad," is looking to return to his field following several allegations of sexual assault from multiple women and a prison stint. During a surprise Dec. 28 radio interview, Bill Cosby, 85, said, "When I come out of this, I feel that I will be able to perform and be the Bill Cosby that my audience knows me to be." In response to whether 2023 may be a year for touring, Bill Cosby replied, "Yes. Yes, because there's so much fun to be had in this storytelling that I do. Years ago, maybe 10 years ago, I found it was better to say it after I write it."

Cosby was found guilty of a felony sexual assault charge in Pennsylvania in April 2018. He spent nearly three years in prison before being freed in 2021 after the Supreme Court overturned his conviction. Earlier this year, the Pennsylvania native was found liable by a California jury in a civil case of sexually abusing a then-teenage girl in 1975. And as previously reported, five more women have launched a lawsuit against Cosby and NBC, which served as the studio for the hit sitcom "The Cosby Show." Lili Bernard, Eden Tirl, Jewel Gittens, Jennifer Thompson, and former Hollywood producer Cindra Ladd claim Cosby either sexually assaulted them or coerced them into having sex. Four of the allegations are from the late 1980s or early 1990s when the actor's career was at its peak as the star of "The Cosby Show."

Kendrick Lamar Shares Why He Likes To Completely Avoid Social Media Despite Having Millions of Followers: I Can Easily Smell My Own Sh*t Kendrick Lamar is not a fan of social media. In fact, the 35-year-old "B*tch, Don't Kill My Vibe" rapper makes a concerted effort to completely avoid social media, mostly because he doesn't want to allow his ego to prevent him from experiencing his own blessings. During a recent interview, Kendrick Lamar said, "My social media, most of the time, is completely off. Because I know, like ... I can easily smell my own [expletive]. I know. ... Like, I'm not one of those dudes that be like, Oh, yeah, I know how good I am, but I also know the reason why I'm so good is because God's blessed me with the talent to execute on the talent, and the moment that you start getting lost in your ego, that's when you start going down." Kendrick Lamar, the greatest rapper of his generation. Dave Free, creator of some of the most celebrated music videos of the last decade. Their dynamic reaches back decades. Now, they are pushing their creative partnership onto unexpected terrain. https://t.co/1lHC7EBg9u — The New York Times (@nytimes) December 27, 2022 Kendrick Lamar has 12.3 million followers on Instagram and 12.1 million on Twitter, despite his avoidance and lack of updates. While he's a man of many words when it comes to spitting lyrics, he prefers to maintain a certain level of privacy when it comes to his personal life. As previously reported, he shared in a rare interview with Citizen Magazine, which was conducted while he was on a trip to Ghana, that his privacy is important to him regardless of his celebrity status. K. Dot said, "The person that people see now is the person that I've always been. For me, the privacy thing has never been an issue that I had to carry out with full intention. It's just who I am. If I feel I have to remove myself, I just remove myself. I won't complain about it. I won't cause a big blow-up or a big stir and let the world know that the walls are closing in."

Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers, the Grammy- and Pulitzer-award-winning artist's fifth studio album, was released in May of this year following a five-year hiatus. The album - his most personable to date - has already earned K. Dot several accolades, including eight Grammy nominations. We Cry Together, the short film written by K. Dot and linked to the song of the same name, is also eligible for the 95th Academy Awards nominations. During his latest interview, he talked about the project and said, "I've never expressed myself the way I expressed myself on this album. From the moment I started picking up a pen and started freestyling. This was the moment that I was trying to get to without even knowing at the time." K. Dot previously opened up about the feelings he had before releasing the project, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart. The father of two contemplated not releasing it at all, thinking of how it would affect his children in the future. He said, "When I got to completion and I said, 'I may or may not put this out; I'm not going to put this out; it's way too much,' I thought about my children." Kendrick Lamar's 'We Cry Together' Faces Biggest Single-Week Drop In Billboard Hot 100 History The Compton native added, "I thought about when they turn 21, or they're older in life, and when I got grandchildren, or if I'm long gone-this can be a prerequisite of how to cope. That's the beauty of it for me." Discussing touching on personal family matters on the album, K. Dot said, "I'm a private person; it was tough for me."

Kelly is coming to an end, at least on television. Lifetime has released the trailer for Surviving R. Kelly: The Final Chapter, a two-part special that marks the conclusion of its illuminating docuseries. The forthcoming episodes will shine a light on R. Kelly's crimes as he goes through multiple federal and state trials. According to Lifetime, "The groundbreaking, Peabody award-winning, Emmy-nominated, documentary series Surviving R. Kelly concludes with the final installment following the former R&B superstar as he faces multiple federal and state trials. While millions have read the headlines, the final chapter connects the shocking fine print with unspeakable details never shared with the public, culminating in the verdict heard around the world." Watch Video on YouTube Surviving R. Kelly: The Final Chapter will premiere on Jan. 2 and 3 at 8:00 p.m. ET/PT. The special's first night will follow Azriel Clary's court testimony, in which she describes how she was told to lie during R. Kelly's interview with Gayle King and the abuse she experienced while testifying. Clary was reportedly only 17 years old when she moved in with R. Kelly. She and Joycelyn Savage, R. Kelly's other girlfriend, continued to speak out in his defense as allegations of sexual abuse against the singer increased with the premiere of the docuseries in 2018.

R. Kelly, Joycelyn Savage, Azriel Clary The first night will also discuss the fallout from the gun threat made during the documentary's 2018 premiere, for which Kelly's former manager was found guilty. While legal professionals and journalists offer insight into the racketeering allegations against Kelly, the Clary family will also describe the intimidation techniques used to corner them by his fans. The second night's episodes will focus on Jane Doe #1 and the reveal of the John Does who go on the defense as additional survivors start to surface. The survivors deliver their victim impact statements at the end of the series as they learn Kelly's fate.

The new 13-track album, titled I Admit It, was released on Apple Music, Spotify, and other streaming platforms on Friday (Dec.9) - but was pulled shortly after. The tracks seemingly belong to the artist, but Kelly and his label have denied being behind the project's release. The album featured tracks with titles including "I Found Love," "Good Ole Days," and "Freaky Sensation." His last three tracks were a three-part song titled I Admit It (I Did It). Update: R. Kelly's Team Reported Stolen Recordings Earlier This Year, Could Be Linked To 'I Admit It' Surprise Album In the three-part piece, Kelly seemingly confessed to a series of allegations made against him. He said, "I admit I f**ked with all the ladies, that's both older and young ladies. But tell me how they call it pedophile because that sh*t is crazy." He sings in another verse, "What's the definition of a cult? What's the definition of a sex slave?" According to reports, Kelly's team called the police in February claiming hundreds of his master recordings were stolen from an Illinois storage facility, which could be behind the unauthorized release of the controversial album.

Cardi B, Offset Offset Celebrates 31st Birthday In Jamaica w/ Wife Cardi B, Family & Loved Ones Offset (real name Kiari Kendrell Cephus) is all smiles as he celebrates his 31st birthday! Following the murder of his cousin Takeoff at a Houston bowling alley in November, the rapper - who makes up one-third of the Atlanta rap duo Migos - has been experiencing intense grief. Thankfully, Offset is currently surrounded by loved ones and appears to be in somewhat of a better place as he celebrates his birthday in Jamaica with wife Cardi B, her sister Hennessy, and others.

Cardi B, Hennessy In a video shared via Cardi B's IG Story, the "Happy Birthday" song by Stevie Wonder played in the background as Offset smoked and enjoyed a feast of massive lobsters and other delicacies at the Lobster Dave Seafood Restaurant and Sports Bar in Ocho Rios on Wednesday (Dec. 13) night.

Another clip showed the partygoers grabbing shots and dancing the night away under the Jamaican moonlight as Cardi B charmed her husband of five years the entire time with her seductive looks - which are always up to par, by the way.

It's nice to see Offset in good spirits, as Cardi B previously shared how difficult the grieving process has been for both herself and her husband in the weeks following Takeoff's death. The rapper admitted to feeling "hopeless" while trying to make her better half happy. Cardi explained, "We're living our life normally, but deep down inside our hearts have been so heavy. I feel like if I talk about - the internet's so desensitized - how we really feel, what motherf-kers really been going through, y'all would start saying, 'Oh sympathy.'" The 'Ring' rapper continued, "We don't want no sympathy. We ain't no charity case, but no lie, I have been feeling so hopeless trying to make my husband happy, Trying to make him crack a smile." Offset Shares He Will Pay Tribute To Takeoff 'Before Every Show' Cardi said seeing Offset "randomly cry" has broken her heart. However, she acknowledged at the time that since it's been a few weeks since the tragic shooting, people are starting to feel more "comfortable trying to be funny." Offset was born on Dec. 14, 1991. Happy birthday, 'set! theJasmineBRAND sends tons of love and well wishes!

Gunna To Be Released After Pleading Guilty To Racketeering Charge, Rapper Stresses He Has 'NOT Coope

Posted by lmcradio — Wed, 14 Dec 2022 21:24 GMT

Gunna To Be Released After Pleading Guilty To Racketeering Charge, Rapper Stresses He Has 'NOT Cooperated' w/ Prosecutors In Any Way To Convict Young Thug Or Other Defendants It looks like Gunna will be making his way home soon. According to reports, Gunna, born Sergio Kitchens, has pleaded guilty to a racketeering conspiracy charge in a gang indictment against him, fellow rapper Young Thug, born Jeffery Williams, and several other alleged members of the Young Slime Life (YSL) criminal street gang. The "Pushin P" rapper has entered a negotiated plea, known as an Alford plea, in which he plead guilty on one charge because it was in his best interest while maintaining his innocence on the same charge.

Gunna Gunna was ultimately sentenced to five years with one served in prison. The one-year sentence was commuted to time served. The four-year remaining balance on his sentence has been suspended and will be subject to special conditions including 500 hours of community service. The 29-year-old rapper released a statement, saying: "While I have agreed to always be truthful, I want to make it perfectly clear that I have NOT made any statements, have NOT been interviewed, have NOT cooperated, have NOT agreed to testify or be a witness for or against any party in the case and have absolutely NO intention of being involved in the trial process in any way." His statement also addressed why he first joined YSL in 2016, noting that he didn't consider it a gang, but "more like a group of people from metro Atlanta who had common interests and artistic aspirations." He added, "My focus of YSL was entertainment - rap artists who wrote and performed music that exaggerated and 'glorified' urban life in the Black community." It's important to note that despite his claims of having no intentions to testify, it is a condition of Gunna's trial that he testifies if called. He can, however, claim the Fifth Amendment if desired.

Young Thug As previously reported, Gunna, Young Thug, and 26 others were arrested in May in a gang indictment that claimed YSL is a violent criminal street gang that has committed multiple murders, shootings, and car-jackings over the course of a decade. Prosecutors said that the rappers promoted the gang's activities in songs and on social media. Young Thug remains in jail.

While there was chemistry between the two, the 'Truth Hurts' singer says it wasn't the right time for her to pursue a relationship. "I had a lot of sh*t to do, and I still was very much in my 'I feel un-loveable' place, and I still was very much not where I wanted to be career-wise. Even if a person came around that I was googly gaga about, I had these wild defenses up that made it almost impossible for a true, intimate relationship to occur."

Lizzo When Howard Stern questioned if Lizzo would marry the comedian/actor one day, the singer responded with a smile and a laugh before she declared, "There's nobody else I'm going to be with for the rest of my life." However, it appears Lizzo was singing a different tune in a July interview on 'The Breakfast Club.' At the time, she revealed that her relationship with Myke Wright wasn't monogamous and that it taught her to be open to love. She also said that traditional relationships scare her, but she can love someone for a lifetime. She explained, "I think a traditional relationship scares me for 10 years, but love is forever. I can love somebody forever. Monogamy, I think to me, is a little claustrophobic - I think because there's the rules. I think a love relationship that's not monogamous has no rules."

But that doesn't mean I'm out here f*cking and s*cking and ducking, it doesn't mean he is either. It just means that like, there are no expectations, and that way, the love gets to just be the main event." Lizzo and Wright sparked romance rumors when they were spotted having dinner together in L.A. on Valentine's Day, however they were linked sometime before that. In October 2021, Lizzo and her beau were spotted together at Crustacean Beverly Hills.
