The National Rifle Association Mocks Kim Kardashian Over Paris Gunpoint Robbery

By: Grouchy Greg Watkins (@GrouchyGreg)Category: News

(AllHipHop News) The National Rifle Association has taken to Twitter to seemingly mock Kim Kardashian after she was robbed of millions in jewellery by armed men in Paris.

The reality star was left shaken when five men, two dressed as police offers, broke into her apartment in the French capital during the early hours Monday morning (October 3), robbing her at gunpoint of up to $10 million worth of jewellery.

However, not everyone has been sympathetic towards Kim, and now pro-gun advocacy NRA has shared its thoughts on the ordeal, posting pretend opposing views on the issue of gun control.

“Wait, criminals held @KimKardashian at gunpoint in Paris? How is that possible? Does anyone know if they passed a background check first?” a post read on the gun lobby’s official Twitter page.

“It’s shocking that these criminals did not subject themselves to Paris’ strict #guncontrol laws before committing this awful crime,” read another seemingly sarcastic tweet on the NRA’s Twitter profile.

The NRA’s unsympathetic response could be linked to the reality star’s outspoken stance on gun control following the mass shootings at an Orlando nightclub in June, which became the deadliest in U.S. history.

“Under current federal law people on terror watch lists can legally buy guns – this is called the Terror Gap,” she wrote.

“The fact that anyone can so easily access guns is so scary & after all of the devastating loss the Senate should have not failed us!!!” she posted the same month.

While some Twitter users joined in the NRA’s mockery, many of Kim’s fans jumped in to defend their idol, such as user @PittSimpleton who tweeted, “It’s classless to make fun of the victim. Would it have been funny if it had been your mom or sister?”

Kim has remained silent on social media since the incident and jetted to New York on Monday to be reunited with her husband Kanye West, who has postponed two dates on his Saint Pablo tour to support his wife.

By: ClassicOneCategory: Rumors

Although Soulja Boy has appeared on all three seasons of Love & Hip Hop Hollywood, it looks like he’s finally saying goodbye to the crazy reality show.

Soulja Boy announced via Twitter on Monday that he’d be quitting the show as he reposted an article from Complex on the topic.

He said,

“I’ve decided to quit Love and hip hop. I feel my brand is too big for the show now. It’s too ratchet. I have my own new tv show coming soon.”

Anyone that has tuned in has witnessed his turbulent relationship with his ex-girlfriend Nia Riley and their battles that have spilled over to social media.

As of lately, the former couple have had less camera time, and they have yet to be featured in a scene together.

Hmmmm do you believe Soulja Boy is really done with Love & Hip Hop? Isn’t he just as ratchet as the show though?

Damian Marley Turning California Prison Into A Giant Marijuana Farm

By: Grouchy Greg Watkins (@GrouchyGreg)Category: News

(AllHipHop News) Reggae legend Bob Marley’s youngest son is planning to convert a California prison into a new marijuana farm.

Damian Marley and his business partners have purchased the Claremont Custody Center in Coalinga and hope to turn the disused prison into a weed dispensary, generating over 100 new jobs, according to Billboard.

The venture will bring much needed tax revenues to the struggling farming and oil community.

Announcing the weed initiative, Marley’s manager Dan Dalton says, “Cannabis is something that’s around Damian every day with friends, family and with his Rastafarian faith. We’ve watched people who have sacrificed their lives for it. That injustice has motivated us to be advocates as well as knowing that there are healing properties in cannabis.”

The hitmaker adds, “Many people sacrificed so much for the herb over the years who got locked up. If this helps people and it’s used for medicinal purposes and inspires people, it’s a success.”

Marley and his partners hope to harvest their first Coalinga cannabis crop at the beginning of next year (2017).

Meanwhile, the reggae and hip hop star has also announced the introduction of Speak Life, a new strain of cannabis he helped create with bosses at Ocean Grown.

“When they introduced this strain of OG I really loved it and loved its consistency,” he tells Billboard.

The marijuana entrepreneur has also partnered with Colorado-based TruCannabis to launch Stoney Hill, a new pot dispensary in downtown Denver, last month.

Birdman By Toni Braxton’s Bedside As Singer Battles Serious Illness

By: Grouchy Greg Watkins (@GrouchyGreg)Category: News

(AllHipHop News) Singer Toni Braxton is battling back from a medical drama after reportedly spending the weekend in an Atlanta, Georgia hospital.

The “Unbreak My Heart” star is in a serious condition stemming from her battle with lupus, according to reports, and she has spent four days in the hospital.

Sources tell the outlet that her rumored boyfriend Bryan ‘Birdman’ Williams has dashed to be by her bedside from Texas, where he was on tour when he heard the news.

Her health isn’t the only thing currently troubling Toni – the Grammy-winning singer has been hit with a tax lien just two years after filing for bankruptcy, according to reports.

The lien, reportedly for nearly $125,000 resulting from back taxes, was filed in mid-August with the State of California.

The current lien comes shortly after a judge dismissed a debt of more than $10 million she owed after her second bankruptcy filing.

Braxton explained the debt came as a result of accumulating health bills that forced her to cancel a string of performances and commitments.

Kim Kardashian Reunites With Kanye West With Massive Security After Paris Robbery

By: Grouchy Greg Watkins (@GrouchyGreg)Category: News

(AllHipHop News) Kim Kardashian is back in the arms of her husband Kanye West after returning to New York City following a terrifying encounter with armed robbers in Paris.

The reality TV beauty was confronted by at least two men dressed as police officers upon returning to her hotel room in the early hours of Monday, after attending a number of Paris Fashion Week shows with her sister Kourtney Kardashian and mother Kris Jenner.

According to local police, Kim had $10 million worth of jewelry stolen in the attack, during which she was bound and gagged and held at gunpoint.

The assailants locked her in the bathroom as they escaped with their haul.

Reports suggest five men were involved in the robbery, and they remained at large.

Kim jetted out of Paris as soon as her police report was filed, and she was greeted by Kanye as her private jet landed in the Big Apple on Monday.

The stars, along with Jenner and her boyfriend Corey Gamble, were subsequently photographed returning to West’s Manhattan home in a 15-car motorcade.

They were surrounded by 15 to 20 bodyguards as officers from the New York Police Department also monitored the scene, reports TMZ.com.

Meanwhile, the Mayor of Paris, Anne Hidalgo, has condemned the attack on Kardashian, insisting the mother-of-two and her family will “always be welcome in Paris”.

In a statement, Hidalgo expressed her faith in detectives tracking down the suspects quickly, and assured the public that the robbery “in no way calls into question police work or security of public space” in the French capital.

Kim has yet to comment on the security scare, but her spokeswoman Ina Treciokas announced the 35-year-old was “badly shaken but physically unharmed” shortly after the news of the robbery surfaced.

Kanye was onstage at the inaugural Meadows Festival in Queens, New York on Sunday night, when he was alerted to the news, and told the crowd he had to leave immediately.

“I’m sorry. Family emergency. I have to stop the show,” he explained halfway into his song Heartless. Kim and Kanye’s children, three-year-old North and nine-month-old Saint, are not believed to have been involved in the incident.

Kim’s supermodel sister Kendall Jenner, who had walked in various Paris Fashion Week presentations, has also left Paris on her own private jet following her sibling’s ordeal.
