It’s normal to critique red carpet fashion looks, however fashion journal ‘Women’s Wear Daily’ took it a step further by critiquing Jay Z’s face. In almost an ode to the female arm candy at the Met Gala, WWD wrote an article critiquing the men. They weren’t too nice when it came to Jay Z’s attire, and they also took a moment to go in on his physical appearance.
“The smile lines are becoming too deep. A bit of filler would do wonders. Maybe he can reach out to his wife’s dermatologist. The double-breasted peak-label blazer is an elegant choice however, he seems to have gained some weight-it’s pulling in all the wrong places.”
They also said his carnation should have been red to tie in with the China theme. Ouch! Leave Jay alone! Well Beyonce shined enough for both of them, as they arrived late and she shut down the carpet.
Fox Business recently invited Ja Rule to the show to discuss his new credit card venture with Magnises on national TV. They also asked him to discuss the Baltimore riots, and the 2016 Presidential election. It seems as if fans or those who watch Fox weren’t expecting to see Ja be the one to discuss these topics. They weren’t too receptive to it either LOL.
And………ESPN’s Bomani Jones has no chill.
(AllHipHop News) Lil Wayne has been very vocal about his issues with Young Thug nearly naming his latest album Carter 6. The Young Money leader was not feeling the idea of Thug borrowing the title from Weezy’s well established Carter series. Wayne even told his fans not to support Thug’s project.
TMZ caught up with Wayne outside Avalon Hollywood. The New Orleans native was asked what would it take to end the beef with Thugger. Wayne responded by mentioning his love for his child.
“My daughter is a beautiful daughter. I love everything about her,” said Wayne to the photog.
Wayne’s daughter Reginae recently had her own words for Young Thug. The teenager sent out a tweet in March saying Thug’s album name was “petty” and “childish.” She also called out a friend on Instagram for posting about Barter 6.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the 42-year-old actor is reuniting with director Michael Tiddes (Haunted House) for Fifty Shades Of Black. The picture will be a parody of the successful S###### themed Fifty Shades Of Grey.
“Sex and comedy go hand-in-hand and I’m looking forward to having fun with this project,” Wayans told THR. “It’s amazing when a film of this caliber comes along begging to be made fun of. I’m really happy to be doing what I love with people I love to do it with. That double entendre was intentional.”
As a member of the legendary Wayans comedy family, Marlon jumped into show business by contributing to older brother Keenen Ivory Wayans projects such as I’m Gonna G## You Sucka and In Living Color. Marlon is the current host of the TBS competition show Funniest Wins.

Jamie Foxx was once a little scared of Mike Tyson because at the time Tyson was knocking people out for even breathing wrong. He had a joke about Mike Tyson, but when he got to it no one laughed. One time Tyson happened to be in the audience and told Foxx to do the joke and said it better be funny. Foxx, who was nervous, happened to go forward with telling the joke, and he ended up getting a standing ovation. Foxx says when he portrays someone he believes you need to go beyond impersonation because the impersonations don’t depict the real person fully.

Although singer Ciara tries to be extremely positive these days, it seems like her #AskCiara session went completely left. Ciara joined iTunes Music for an exclusive online chat using the hashtag #AskCiara to promote her latest album, Jackie. Cici was added to the long list of celebrities including Robin Thicke, R. Kelly, and others to have their Q&A sessions turn into cruel online “shadefests”. Some of her true fans asked questions about her music while others joined the conversation with jokes about her failed relationships, poor album sales and anything else that could be hurtful. Dang CiCi.
