Kim Kardashian Dodges Questions About Overusing Private Jet In Middle Of Climate Change Crisis

Kim Kardashian is taking a “realistic” approach to combatting climate change amid backlash over private jet usage by celebrities.

In July, the reality TV star was named on a list of famous faces who made a high number of flights in a private plane this year, alongside the likes of Taylor Swift, Floyd Mayweather, Jay-Z, Blake Shelton, Steven Spielberg, and Mark Wahlberg.

In a conversation for the September 2022 issue of Interview magazine, editor Mel Ottenberg asked Kim for her take on measures that can be taken to fight global warming.

“I believe in climate change, and I believe that anything can help. But I also believe in being realistic and I think sometimes there’s so much to worry about on this planet, and it can be really scary to live your life with anxiety,” she said. “I have super climate change-involved friends, and I love learning from them. I do what I can, but you have to pick and choose what really works for you in your life.”
Kim went on to note, “No one’s going to be 100 percent perfect.”

Elsewhere in the chat, the SKIMS founder discussed her hectic schedule and revealed that she has a problem with “saying no to people.”

“I hate when people ask me for things. It’s like, ‘Hey, will you do this work thing, it’ll just be two seconds.’ And I’m like, ‘It’s not that easy. I’m coming from Calabasas, which is an hour each way.’ It takes about two hours in glam, so if someone asks me to do a five-minute cameo, it’s never just that. But, all my friends and family, no one ever really asks me for anything or needs anything. We’re all just cool,” the 41-year-old added.

Cst. John Macleod from the Halifax Regional Police said, “At this point, we are in the early stages. We are looking at all avenues to determine what occurred that night.”

“We are asking anyone that might have information, or might have video, or photographs from the time of the incident to contact police to help us further this investigation,” MacLeod continued.

The Hip-Hop world has been in a whirlwind of shock since the murder, hosting tributes and posting memorials.

“hiphop lost one of the best battlers of all time … RIP @patstay .. KINGS NEVER DIE‼️”

Britney’s conservatorship was terminated after 13 years in November.

Kanye West has set his sights on buying a shoe company.

Since returning to social media this week, the Stronger rapper has taken aim at a series of top Adidas executives in relation to the management of his popular Yeezy fashion line.

“I need a shoe company like how Jamie Salter bought Reebok or I’ll take over some shoe factories,” the star wrote, referring to the acquisition of Reebok from Adidas in August. “I’ve went to (investment bank) JP Morgan but of course they won’t give me no deal flow cause Jin(g) Ulrich is on the board of both Adidas and JP Morgan.

Nicki Minaj earned one of the biggest hits of her decade-long career when “Super Freaky Girl” arrived in August. The song opened at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, making Minaj just the second female rapper to achieve that milestone as a soloist.

Since its debut, Nicki Minaj’s “Super Freaky Girl” has remained in the Hot 100’s Top 10 region. It currently holds the #7 spot on the latest weekly rankings of America’s most popular songs.

It appears Minaj has a plan for “Super Freaky Girl” to possibly jump back to the #1 position. The Queens, New York native teased that another remix to the song could drop in the near future.

“#QueenMix coming to collect her things. Soon come 🔥🔥🔥🔥,” shared Nicki Minaj early Wednesday morning. That tweet included what sounded like a snippet of the “Super Freaky Girl” remix.

The Twitter video begins with the 39-year-old rapper shouting out Miami, Boston, Chicago, Atlanta, and New York. This led to online speculation that female rappers from those cities will join Minaj on an extended version of the song.

Nicki Minaj later returned to the Twitter platform to provide even more hints about the potential forthcoming track. She also tweeted, “Also guys, this is part 1. There may be a part ✌🏾 #QueenMix.”

Previously, Minaj dropped the “Roman Remix” to “Super Freaky Girl” which features the rap star’s alter ego Roman Zolanski. An official music video for the original version of the song has amassed more than 6 million views since premiering on YouTube on September 1.

Nicki Minaj’s 2022 includes her releasing “Do We Have a Problem?” with Lil Baby, “Blick Blick” with Coi Leray, and “We Go Up” with Fivio Foreign. This year’s MTV Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award recipient also dropped the Queen Radio: Volume 1 greatest hits compilation which peaked at #10 on the Billboard 200 chart.

Kiari “Offset” Cephus seems to be fully stepping into his role as a solo rapper. After rising to fame as part of the Quality Control Music-backed rap group Migos, the southern emcee dropped two new singles over the last month.

The Baby Keem-produced “54321” arrived on August 19. Offset followed that track up with the Moneybagg Yo-assisted “Code” on August 26. Both tracks have music videos on YouTube too.

Last night, Offset presented a medley of “54321” and “Code” on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. The 4-minute performance included female and male backup dancers. Set also showed off some of his dance moves.

“54321” debuted at #88 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Previously, the Motown recording artist scored Top 10 hits as a soloist with guest appearances on Tyga’s “Taste” (#8) and Kodak Black’s “ZEZE” (#2).

Migos earned a #1 song on the Hot 100 in 2017 when “Bad And Boujee” featuring Lil Uzi Vert peaked in the chart’s top spot. The trio of Offset, Takeoff, and Quavo have four Top 10 entries.

Over the last several months, there has been speculation of a Migos split. Takeoff and Quavo began releasing music as the Unc & Phew duo. Plus, Offset had a public disagreement with Quality Control CEO Pierre “P” Thomas.

Years before the rumors of a Migos breakup, Offset dropped his first solo album, Father of 4. That 2019 studio LP debuted at #4 on the Billboard 200 chart with 89,000 first-week units. Father of 4 hosts the “Clout” single featuring Set’s wife Cardi B.

This week also saw Offset and Cardi B celebrate the first birthday of their youngest son. Cardi gave birth to Wave Set Cephus on September 4, 2021. The celebrity couple also has a four-year-old daughter named Kulture Kiari Cephus. Offset has three other children from previous relationships.

P-Valley became a breakout hit. Creator Katori Hall’s drama series about residents of a Mississippi town earned widespread praise. In particular, J. Alphonse Nicholson’s portrayal of Lil Murda earned him an NAACP Image Award nomination.

Tamron Hall kicked off the fourth season of her daytime talk show by inviting members of the P-Valley cast onto the program. Nicco Annan, Shannon Thornton, and Gail Bean joined J. Alphonse Nicholson for the sit-down interview.

At one point, Tamron Hall pointed out that P-Valley and J. Alphonse Nicholson have earned critical praise. Nicholson fought back tears as the live audience applauded the actor/percussionist for his work on the show.

“I’m just blessed to be here. This experience, the love that people show you is overwhelming,” J. Alphonse Nicholson told Hall. He added, “Such an honor to be back here in New York and it is such an honor to be able to bring such a complex story to the table and to be a representation for any and everyone.”

J. Alphonse Nicholson’s Lil Murda Represents Another Side Of The LGBTQ Community

The Lil Murda character is an aspiring rapper who also happens to be a closeted gay man. He is in love with Uncle Clifford (played by Nicco Annan) which forces the streets-raised rhymer to embrace his own sexuality.

J. Alphonse Nicholson also told Tamron Hall, “I call Lil Murda ‘The Every Man,’ and so I’m just crying because like I said, the love is overwhelming and being able to step into these shoes and bring the Katori Hall’s story to life and represent a Black woman. Truly, I’m grateful for it.”

Season two of P-Valley ran from June 3, 2022 to August 14, 2022. Reality show star Joseline Hernandez made a cameo as herself on the “White Knights” episode. Grammy-winning rap star Megan Thee Stallion appeared as her alter ego, Tina Snow, on the “Snow” episode.

Tiffany Haddish’s Lawyer Responds To Sexual Misconduct Accusations

Tiffany Haddish found herself connected to serious allegations of sexual molestation and grooming. Two unidentified people (listed as Jane Doe and John Doe) filed a lawsuit against Haddish and fellow comedian Aries Spears.

The suit stems from Aries Spears and Tiffany Haddish taking part in a 2014 skit titled “Through A Pedophiles Eyes.” Haddish played a woman who dropped off a child to his uncle played by Spears.

According to the plaintiffs, Aries Spears and Tiffany Haddish allegedly recruited them to film “sexually explicit child pornography skits.” Jane Doe was 14 years old at the time. John Doe was 7 years old.

“I know a lot of people have a bunch of questions. I get it. I’m right there with you. Unfortunately, because there is an ongoing legal case, there’s very little that I can say right now,” wrote Haddish on social media.

Tiffany Haddish’s legal representation has also responded to the pending lawsuit. Entertainment news website Hollywood Unlocked published a statement from the Girl Trip star’s attorney, Andrew Brettler.

“Plaintiff’s mother, Trizah Morris, has been trying to assert these bogus claims against Ms. Haddish for several years,” stated Andrew Brettler. “Every attorney who has initially taken on her case – and there were several – ultimately dropped the matter once it became clear that the claims were meritless and Ms. Haddish would not be shaken down.”

Brettler added, “Now, Ms. Morris has her adult daughter representing herself in this lawsuit. The two of them will together face the consequences of pursuing this frivolous action.” The accuser reportedly called on Los Angeles officials to arrest and prosecute Tiffany Haddish and Aries Spears.

A man shot dead by police in London has been named as 23-year-old rapper Chris Kaba who went by the name Madix or Mad Itch 67.  

Cops were in pursuit of a “suspect vehicle” at around 10 p.m. on Monday (Sep. 5) when they hemmed in the Audi driven by the rapper, forcing him to stop. Once the chase ended, cops say one police firearm was discharged.  

As reported by BBC, Madix was months away from becoming a father, according to the mother of his fiancée. She said the “super-kind” “funny” rapper was “so loved.”

“Crazy. He was always happy. He’d do anything for you,” Kimberly Alleyne explained. “He was a fiancé, he was due to get married in five months’ time. He’s got a baby on the way that he’s never going to see.” 

She added, “It’s horrible and so shocking and so sad,” questioning why he had to be shot. Kimberly Alleyne believes had Madix been white he would have been given “a chance to get out the car.” 

Maddix was part of drill collective 67 and had been nominated for a prestigious MOBO award for his music.  

Cops Investigating Madix’s Death Say One Shot Was Fired

Witnesses at the scene report hearing gunshots and a police helicopter hovering overhead. A statement from the Metropolitan Police reveals, “specialist firearms officers were in pursuit of a suspect vehicle.” Once the vehicle was stopped, a “police firearm was discharged.” 

The say officers administered first aid before Madix was transported to hospital. However, he died from his injuries shortly after midnight. A post-mortem is set to take place to establish the preliminary cause of death.  

The Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) opened an investigation, standard procedure in any police shooting in England. They confirmed one shot was fired from a police issue firearm.  

Sal Naseem, IOPC London regional director, said: “When the police use fatal force it is important that there is a robust, independent investigation to establish all of the circumstances surrounding what happened.”

Fat Joe will be coming to screens in September as the host of the 2022 BET Hip-Hop Awards. 

The New York native is in high demand and is extending his role as a media personality with a promise to deliver in a big way.  

“This will be the BIGGEST award show in history,” Fat Joe explained to Billboard. “It’s truly an honor to host and produce the BET Hip Hop Awards, and I can’t thank Connie [Orlando] and the entire BET family enough for this opportunity. We’re going to celebrate music, culture, and entertainment, honor the biggest and brightest stars in the world and make this an unforgettable night full of laughs and surprises. Always remember that yesterday’s host is not today’s host.” 

The ceremony takes place at Cobb Energy Center in Atlanta, GA, on Friday, September 30. The broadcast premiere will air Tuesday, October 4, at 9 PM ET/PT on BET. 

“Fat Joe is hip hop royalty. He has represented the artform and the Bronx, the birthplace of hip hop, throughout his outstanding musical career. He is a treasured friend of the network and we’ve loved seeing and supporting his evolution to becoming the superstar he is today,” said Connie Orlando, EVP, Specials, Music Programming & Music Strategy at BET. “We can’t wait to watch him take the stage with his vivacious energy, standing together with today’s hottest and beloved hip hop stars.” 

BET Label Fat Joe “One of the Gods of Rap”

“We bringing that culture back with one of the GODS of Rap!” BET announced on social media.

While on Instagram, many of his contemporaries applauded the news, sharing fire emojis in the comment section, it was a different story on Twitter. Check out some of the responses below.

“Fortmanny Bets Drops New Single “Everyday” with Expected EP Coming in 2023

By: Staff Writer Updated Category: Music News
Preferred Source Publisher Button>

What is a quote you live by?

“Hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard”

 I also live by the notion that “Nothing comes to a sleeper but a dream”, and last but not least “TIME IS MONEY “

What are some important achievements and milestones you feel proud to share?

An important achievement for me was when I purchased my dream house at the age of 21 and purchased my dream car, a Lamborghini Huracan at the age of 26 years old!

I also attended a YSL party back in 2022 which was a life-changing experience meeting some notable Musicians like Young Thug, that inspired me heavily and really helped encourage me on my path to pursuing music further!

Tell us a little bit more about your background, where were you born and raised, and how you got into music:

I was born in west Africa, Monrovia Liberia to be exact. I moved to the United States at the age of 9 years old. I got into music heavily when I first moved to the United States.

 Lil Boosie was the first artist I took an interest in when I first got introduced to Music.

How did your background affect your journey and current situation?

Honestly, my background affected my journey in a very positive way. I was introduced to something new and different from what I grew up around while in Africa. 

Hip Hop wasn’t as popular growing up where I grew up. When I got to the United States everything changed and I got introduced to Hip Hop thanks to my older cousin.

What influenced you to become a Musical Artist:

The lifestyle that I live influenced me to become an artist. I listen to a lot of Artists speak on what their life was like and I always said to myself “Damn that’s me, I can relate to this a lot” so the decision was pretty easy getting into music.

Was there a certain moment that was a turning point in your life:

The turning point in my life was when I moved out of Florida to Tennessee at the age of 19. 

That was a life-changing moment for me looking back. I had zero friends or family in Tennessee when I moved. 

I had no option other than to work hard and grind. I was distraction free as well, which was a major element in my growth.

We love your new song “Everyday”, what can we expect from you musically in the future?

Yeah, I had a lot of motivation in my life to release that song and the response has been incredible! It got me feeling like Music is something I was meant to do and I’m excited to release my album in early 2023!

“Look up in the sky, it’s a bird, it’s a plane,” or is it newly licensed skydiver Redman? 

Redman has been a fan of the extreme sport for decades but recently took things up a notch. At the beginning of the year, he set himself a challenge to become a qualified skydiver. 

After many months of soaring high in the sky and 27 jumps later, Redman achieved his goal. He took to Instagram on Tuesday evening (Sept. 6) to share his achievement with a video montage featuring some of his jumps. The clip begins with the “How High” rapper somersaulting out of an aircraft into the open sky. He’s seen performing several aerial maneuvers, even giving his instructor a high five mid-jump, all while thousands of feet up in the air.  

“I worked HARD for this !!,” Redman penned in the caption. “27 JUMPS and Studied Hard for my Written Exam and Passed TODAY !! I’m an OFFICIAL A LICENSED SKYDIVER. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏”  

He continued: “I’m WILDING IN THE SKIES,” before thanking the team at Skydive Spaceland Houston.

Several of his peers took to the comments to congratulate him, including Ja Rule, who revealed he was also going for the feat. 

“Dope,” he replied, adding, “I got 23 jumps to go lol… congrats 🌊.” Redman was fully in support, responding, “Aye Les Go My Bro !!”

Redman released “So Cool” this summer, beginning the rollout for the long-awaited sequel to his 1996 solo album Muddy Waters. The single serves as the lead track for Muddy Waters 2. 

Fans have been anticipating the project for 15 years. Redman told AllHipHop.com way back in 2007 that the album was on the way. “I’m getting back into [the studio] with Muddy Waters 2,” he revealed. “I already did two songs for it.” 

Rapper Quando Rondo Quits Gang Life, Refuses To Get Jumped Out Too

2022 just got weirder.

Quando Rondo is out! Ol’ boy has been through a lot and he had decided to just quit gang life! Rondo is a Crip! And he’s done something I have almost never seen happen: quitting. Usually it is some “blood in, blood out” stuff. Anyway, he said that gang members are not loyal and he is going to focus on family!

What do you think about this? I find it so amazing and so tragic.

Here is the deal. Another one of Rondo’s homies died. Remember, they were in LA and in the brightness of the sun, somebody shot his man Lul Pab. Rondo was not hit. His boy would die later. Rondo didn’t take it too good. He decided to let it be known. He. Is. Out.

UPDATE: Quando Rondo Avoids Death In Los Angeles; Affiliates Lul Pab And Fendi Killed

He said more on his IG stories.

“It’s time for me to spend time to myself and free myself from a lot of people. My Main Manz Gone & a lot more sh#t I’m cool on alot of sh#t if I feel like you not with me it’s no reason for me To be holding on to you no need to shake your hand or fake some with you ! I’m Living Life How I wanna live life whatever I wanna do ima do it you gone either gone get with it or get lost,” he said.

I feel for lil bro, because he took all he could take. We already know he was the intended target of the gunners that took his boy. Life went on relatively fast and I bet nobody cared in the set. On top of that, it was rumored that the Hoover Crips did the shooting. For a minute there, they said Big U was protecting Lil Rondo, but maybe something happened.

Here’s more of what he said on IG.

That is a lot.

Here’s more. J. Stone said you gotta come and get let out of the set. You cannot just walk away, bro.

This runs deep.

I feel bad for Bow Wow! Dude just got turned into a laughing stock all over the internet again. I know some people under rocks, so here’s the summation. Bow Wow is offering fans a once in a lifetime opportunity to chill with him extensively. And they laughed!

Well, Bow Wow is not about to let you all pick thousands of dollars in food stamps over him. No way. He is lashing back at you busters.

“A lot of you guys are asking what’s the difference between Ticketmaster Meet and greets. Then there my VIP meet n greets that released yesterday….. ill explain,” he wrote according to the good people of BallerAlert.

“Certain floor seat tickets come with the standard meet and greet where you will be able to still meet me and take photos, but you WILL NOT get the full experience as my VIP MEET AND GREET HOLDERS… this is your standard picture taking similar to what we usually do,” he continued.

He went on: “As for my special VIP meet and greet experience .. They will gain more access to more private time with me and also will gain access to my private club and everything you can name. There are 3 different packages to choose from. It’s all about how close you want your experience to be.”

I told you people, the price of a mere picture was as low as $150, but you all wanted to be funny.

In time, Bow Wow seemed to get increasingly mad and decided to stunt on you hating a$$ N-words.

“You see when I’m chilling, minding my business staying off the net, THEY STILL HAVE TO TALK ABOUT ME,” he said. “One week it’s ‘Bow Wow sells out o2 arena he’s a goat’ to who wants to meet him for 1k? Ya, baby momma n#gga, that’s who. Read before u post bout me. Stop playing with the dog.”

A goat and a dog? OK! Ya’ll musta forgot! Tha Row!

“PSA!!! WHEN ARTIST (EVERYONE) DO CONCERTS, they all have something called a VIP PACKAGE. I HAVENT DONE MEET AND GREETS IN OVER 7 YEARS… I HAVE THE COOLEST FANS ON THE PLANET .. I APPRECIATE THE F### OUTTA THEM. THESE ARE MEMORIES THAT WILL LAST WITH THEM FOREVER.

“UNLIKE MOST OF THESE LAME-ASS ARTISTS THAT WON’T MAKE EYE CONTACT WITH THE PEOPLE WHO MADE IT POSSIBLE TO EVEN HAVE A CAREER. I ONLY EXIST BECAUSE THESE FANS SAW SOMETHING IN ME I NEVER THOUGHT WAS POSSIBLE.. SO IMA GO ALL OUT FOR MY FANS !!!!”

Bow Wow…out!
