Boosie Badazz was tricked by a fake video claiming Elon Musk would cure diabetes in 17 hours. The rapper posted on X, asking Musk to contact his assistant about the supposed cure.
The Louisiana rapper wrote in all caps that he saw the video and wants to “get this sickness out my body in 2026.” But the video was a deepfake – one of many fake ads using Musk’s face to sell bogus diabetes supplements.
“JUST SAW THIS VIDEO WHERE ELON MUSK SAYING SOMETHING ABOUT CURING DIABETES N 17 HOURS. ELON PLEASE GET SOMEONE TO CONTACT MY ASSISTANT SO WE CAN GET MORE IMFORMATION ON THIS. I REALLY WANT TO GET THIS SICKNESS OUT MY BODY 2026,” Boosie wrote.

Boosie has dealt with diabetes for years. He was hospitalized for blood sugar problems in August 2023 and fans have even driven hours to bring him insulin when he ran out.
These fake Musk videos have exploded since OpenAI released Sora in 2025. The AI video tool made it easier for scammers to create realistic deepfakes.
Cybersecurity experts say the volume of deepfakes has grown significantly this year. Newsrooms documented racist hoax clips, fake crime videos and sexually explicit deepfakes targeting real people, including minors.
Researchers and fraud trackers also reported a steep jump in deepfake scams, with losses reaching hundreds of millions of dollars.
Sora 2 did not start the problem, but its lifelike video quality and low learning curve made it easier for anyone to create fake footage that many viewers struggle to spot as false.
The scam videos don’t just use Musk. They also fake Oprah Winfrey and other celebrities to push diabetes “cures.” The ads lead people to websites selling questionable supplements.
Musk doesn’t have a cure for diabetes. He actually used the diabetes drug Wegovy for weight loss in 2022. It’s hard to fault Boosie given how convincing these deepfakes have become.
Ray Benzino and Bobby V go way back in the game. On paper, this has always been a straight-up music relationship: studio sessions, matching visuals, and industry overlap. They linked up on records like “Kiss Me Like You Miss Me” and “Back to Love” in the early 2010s, even popping up together in music videos and later sharing screen time in the BET film Hollywood Hearts. Nothing wild…just business…Or so it seemed.
Today, Althea Heart chose violence and the gossip rags are in shambles.
Today, Benzino’s ex, Ms. Heart, jumped on Instagram and tossed a grenade into the timeline. I thought I was going to have a chill day. Nope. According to her posts, Benzino allegedly cheated on her with Bobby V. She posted numerous text messages levying the accusations, but there was no “proof” per se, just the claim.
Now, to be clear: these are allegations, not confirmed facts. Also, something else is weird. It almost looks like somebody else is engaging with Ms. Heart, like his girlfriend. Why is he constantly talking in the 3rd person? I know celebs do that, but that is so weird to me.
So what’s the truth? I guess we have to wait for Zino to speak up. Right now, I am not going to say this is a fact. Something is off.
What’s undeniable is this: Benzino and Bobby V’s long-running professional relationship. Althea and Zino have a very well documented relationship as well. Now, it is not on a toxic reality show.
You know how toxic you gotta be to be kicked off a show rooted in drama? Yes, VH1 removed both Benzino and Althea from the series, citing unacceptable behavior. Their departure marked a rare moment where reality TV drew a hard line.
The relationship between Ray Benzino and Althea Eaton (we gonna use her real name now) became one of the most volatile and controversial storylines in Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta. It began as a comeback moment for Benzino but quickly spiraled into must-see chaos, entertainment and dysfunction.
Benzino was the former power player OG and Althea was the younger partner and aspiring artist. It was a mess. Unlike many Love & Hip Hop, Benzino and Althea’s issues felt real like this rumor.
Kanye West showed up at Deon Cole’s comedy show Saturday night and dropped some big news. The rapper told the crowd at Hollywood Improv that he has a new album coming.
Cole posted a video of the whole thing on Instagram. He brought Kanye on stage and asked if he had anything new for fans.
“New album,” Kanye said. That’s it. Two words that got everyone screaming.
This comes after Kanye dropped his Vultures series with Ty Dolla $ign. Vultures 1 hit streaming in February 2024. Then Vultures 2 came out in August 2024. Both albums did well on the charts.
Kanye’s been getting back into performance mode lately. He popped up at Travis Scott’s show in Japan last month. Fans went crazy when he took off his mask and did “Can’t Tell Me Nothing.”
Now he’s got two big shows planned. He’s doing Mexico City on January 31, 2026, at Plaza de Toros. Then he’s headlining Hellwatt Festival in Italy on July 18, 2026. That’s his first solo show in Europe since 2014.
The Italy show is at RCF Arena in Reggio Emilia. It can hold over 100,000 people. Tickets are already on sale and selling fast.
Deon Cole joked about wanting to be on the new album. He also asked Kanye to send him some clothes. Kanye said yes to both before walking off stage.
The rap star has been teasing the album since 2024 and he even dropped a short film, Bully V1, with the same name featuring new music, although it’s unclear if those tracks will make the final version of the new album Ye announced at Cole’s show.
A Louisiana woman posted a video about how many times she had to charge her Dyson to vacuum her entire house. Fellow Dyson owners in the comments section are unsurprised.
TikTok creator Ruby (@rubyellanore) posted a clip of her Dyson charging in the laundry room to the tune of Yung Gravy’s “Mr. Clean.”
“Just waiting for the Dyson to charge for the fourth time and I haven’t made it out of the living room,” she wrote in the on-screen caption.
Viewers React to the Dyson Vacuum’s Battery Limitations
In the comments section, plenty of viewers offered their opinions on the Dyson vacuum experience and how they handle the charging realities.
“I hate this vacuum,” wrote one person. “I’m going back to corded immediately.”
A second person suggested, “Replace the battery.”
A third person went into more specifics. “So you either got a lemon or you are one of those people that thinks everything needs to be ran in boost/high mode instead of leaving it in auto. However, it’s important to note that this is a cheaper version of the Dyson. It doesn’t last as long as the ones that have the cylinder that goes sideways. My battery lasted 45 minutes and it comes with a spare battery that I can swap right out. And I very, very rarely ever use up one full battery.”
The Dyson V8 Absolute Vacuum Battery Life
Other viewers pointed out that Ruby’s Dyson is a V8 Absolute. The model is cordless and features 115 air watts of suction and a six-cell, lithium-ion battery that should last 40 minutes of run time.
Compare that to the Dyson V12 Detect Slim, which comes with a seven-cell, lithium-ion battery that can run for up to an hour. And for consumers who want extremely long sessions, the Gen5outsize features multiple 10-cell, lithium-ion batteries that can go for a combined 140 minutes.
In a thread posted to r/Dyson a year ago, commenters noted that users must fully charge and unplug the V8 before turning it on. They also mentioned that using boost mode lowers battery life considerably. “Don’t use on max or boost mode,” wrote one person. “You get longer run time.”
According to this Vacuum Wars review, the V8’s regular mode is sufficient for handling everyday vacuuming. However, the outlet noted the absence of a medium power mode that would help consumers manage battery life more efficiently.
According to a CNN roundup, the best vacuum cleaners of the year came from Shark, Dyson, Black and Decker, Miele, Roborock, and Bissell. The Dyson V15s Detect Submarine Absolute was rated the best cordless stick vacuum. It features a seven-cell lithium-ion battery with swappable, click-in battery packs that extend run time to 60 minutes.
AllHipHop contacted Ruby and Dyson via email for comment.
Snoop Dogg is expanding his kid-friendly empire from screens to shelves through a partnership between Doggyland Media and Little Bee Books, kicking off with Snoop Dogg’s Doggyland: Affirmations Song.
The book adapts the popular tune from the animated series into a format designed to help parents bring daily positivity into their homes.
“Doggyland’s been killing it with our music and our videos, so it only made sense to bring the magic to the world of books,” Snoop told AllHipHop in a statement. “This partnership with Little Bee couldn’t be a better fit. They understand what Doggyland is all about—how to bring our fun and engaging methods of learning to kids in a whole new way. You know when you got the buzz from the bee and the woof from the dog that these books are going to make noise.”
Since its launch in 2022, Doggyland: Kids Songs & Nursery Rhymes has built a strong following with over 1.2 million YouTube subscribers and 12 million music streamers.
The animated series features a cast of musical dogs led by Bow Wizzle, voiced by Snoop himself, who guides a crew of characters like Woofee, Yap Yap, Chow Wow and Barks-A-Locks through upbeat songs that teach emotional intelligence, kindness and basic learning skills.
The show was co-created by Claude Brooks, the Emmy-nominated producer behind Hip Hop Harry, and October London, a singer-songwriter who also lends his voice to the character Woofee.
“I’ve always wanted to create a kid-friendly series that lets kids be kids and is truly representative of the culture with everything from the music to the characters,” Snoop said when the show first launched. “When I started to build my team, it was only right to partner with Claude, who created the iconic series, Hip Hop Harry, which built the blueprint to diverse kids programming, and October London, a talented singer and writer.”
The publishing program will feature a mix of board books, sound books and activity books aimed at engaging children at home, in classrooms and on the move. Following the Affirmations Song release, titles will continue through 2027, including Counting Numbers Song Sound Book, Family Barbecue, Just Breathe, and Eat Your Veggies.
“We’re beyond excited to bring Doggyland to bookshelves,” said Jeanine Le Ny, executive editor at BuzzPop, Little Bee’s media and licensing imprint. “Fresh, relevant, and rooted in empowerment, the videos show kids that they can be confident, express themselves, and navigate the world with kindness. These books extend that mission beyond the screen, giving families new ways to carry those messages into everyday life.”
A woman ordered a single pair of Apple EarPods from Amazon and was shocked to open the box to 10.
On Dec. 16, @lizardfish_ posted a TikTok revealing she had mistakenly received 10 Apple EarPods and was wondering how it possibly happened.
“I thought I ordered one, so I was wondering why the box was so big,” she says. “Y’all, what is this?”
She opens one of the pairs on camera to make sure they actually have EarPods inside, and they do. “Why do I have 10 of these?, she asked.
She clarifies that she only purchased one pair. “And they were only like $19 altogether,” she states. “10 of these for $19. Am I being bamboozled?”
The on-screen caption reads, “Amazon? Apple? Am I going to jail for this?”
She‘s Not the First Amazon Customer This Has Happened To
Commenters were quick to share that this is not an unprecedented experience, and it has happened with many of them.
“I saw a lady get 25 tote bags from Amazon,” wrote one commenter. “If only we could all get so lucky lol.”
“They did this to me when I ordered 1 of the nexus’s hair treatments and sent me a box full,” added another. “Let’s just say I’m still half way through the box.”
Why Did She Get 10 EarPods Instead of 1?
One commenter speculated what happened. “You got a master case,” they wrote. “That box was supposed to be opened and put away separately. Box got put away as 1 unit. This had to get past at LEAST 4 people [before] being shipped.”
There are many reasons this mistake could have happened, as Amazon’s fulfillment operations are large and complex. However, the previous commenter’s explanation is a very likely one.
What should have been a single pair of EarPods likely started its journey in a larger master case. This is a bulk box containing many identical units meant to be broken down into individual customer orders. If that case wasn’t properly unpacked at the warehouse or fulfillment center, the whole thing could have accidentally been scanned and shipped as one item.
Redditors familiar with Amazon’s system explain that these kinds of “master pack” mistakes do happen when the containers aren’t separated into individual units and slip through quality checkpoints, especially near the end of a shift or during peak shipping times.
Alternatively, simple system or barcode glitches can misassign inventory, or human error at the picking or packing stage could result in more than what was ordered being sent. Because these operations are automated and massive in scale, small mistakes can cascade into wild results.
Can She Get in Trouble for Not Returning the EarPods?
Legally, the situation is murky, but generally doesn’t lead to criminal trouble for the buyer if the item is addressed to them and they didn’t take any intentional steps to commit fraud. Under federal consumer protection rules in the United States, you don’t have a legal obligation to pay for or return unordered merchandise, and the seller can’t demand payment just because you received it in error. Essentially, it’s considered a gift you’re allowed to keep.
That said, there are nuances. If the package was addressed to someone else and you took deliberate steps to keep it without trying to correct the error, some state laws could treat that as theft or misappropriation of property. Many states make it unlawful to “knowingly take control of misdelivered property of another without reasonable efforts to notify the true owner.”
For Amazon specifically, its actual customer service policy around wrong or extra items is usually very lenient, as it often tells customers to keep the extra item and still receive what they ordered. Legally, you wouldn’t face fines or jail time simply for keeping a shipment sent to your correct address, especially if you contacted Amazon and followed reasonable steps to clarify what happened.

’Twas two nights before the end of the How the Grouch Stole Christmas Tour and five members of the Living Legends—Sunspot Jonz, Eligh, The Grouch, Luckyiam, Bicaso and Scarub—were at Denver’s Cervantes Masterpiece Ballroom for another headlining show with Souls of Mischief and CunninLynguists.
Behind the venue in a dimly lit Mile High alley, Sunspot Jonz practically glowed as he talked about his new children’s book, Werewolves Want the Moon For Christmas, and his latest solo album, Wolfheart. But there was also a sense of sadness in the wake of Aesop the Black Wolf’s death just a few months ago.
The veteran Oakland MC/producer, a founding member of the crew, grieved open and honestly with his Instagram followers, allowing the public to share in his pain. That night was no different—he was willing to speak on the group’s profound loss.
“You always find out bad news in the morning,” he said. “That morning, Murs called me and said, ‘Yo, we lost ‘Sop.’ Tears just started streaming down my face. I couldn’t even move. He’s the first one out of the group to go and he was such a light, because he’s always laughing no matter what’s happening. A piece of the whole mantle is gone now. You’re not prepared for it. I was paralyzed. I was catatonic. I was like, ‘I cannot believe it.’I immediately called his phone.”
But…Aesop never picked up. So like a lot of creatives, he poured his grief into his art, something perfectly encapsulated on the Wolfheart song “Howl Miss You.”
“It’s wolf season and I knew I had to have the strength to make it through the winter, and only a wolf heart can do it,” he explained. “I made that beat on my MPC and I was like, ‘This sounds like the beat I’m gonna say something about Aesop on.
“I didn’t wanna make it overly deep, I just wanted to let people know I love the man, he was my brother and we had a lot of fun together. We also created magic and I wanted people to know how much I cared about him and that I’m always gonna howl for him. I’m always gonna be a beacon of his light that he left.”
Sunspot is spreading that light to children with Werewolves Want the Moon For Christmas, which he authored and illustrated. As a kid, Sunspot jumped around from foster home to foster home, and art was how he coped.
“I grew up in foster homes,” Sunspot revealed. “I was adopted and always on punishment or always in another foster home. I was in foster homes until I was about 15, because me and my new mom didn’t get along. She had divorced my adopted dad a year after I got adopted, so I was on punishment a lot, and I was always drawing. I had no TV, so I made the TV.”
Years after launching his rap career, he was sitting on the tarmac at a Miami airport for hours and, to pass the time, pulled out his computer and started drawing what would become illustrations for his first book, The Dentist and the Fire Breathing Dragon. It took years to publish it, but it finally arrived in 2021 and his career as an author and illustrator had officially begun.
“These drawings are in my control,” he said. “I don’t have to have someone direct it, or sound off on it or anything. I just put my all into making The Dentist and the Fire Breathing Dragon. It took me probably like two and a half years to really to finish it.”
The feedback blew him away: “I couldn’t even imagine it. It got hella positive reviews on Amazon.”
Sunspot’s books go hand in hand with his non-profit, Hip Hop Scholastics, whose mission it is to “promote social-emotional well being and inspire learning through love, inclusion and Hip Hop,” according to its website. Hip Hop Scholastics has provided Hip Hop Education for schools and programs nationwide since inception. The original curriculum, created for kindergarten students at Prescott Elementary School in West Oakland, has bloomed into a comprehensive Pre-K through 5th grade standards-based curriculum. The song “8th Graders” on Wolfheart—which he also produced—is actually about that.
“Basically we go and help the community by using music as a vocational tool,” he said. “We throw an annual event at Children’s Fairyland amusement park in Oakland. We have the fourth one coming up next August.” But he has additional plans. He continued, “I want to do a children’s network because I feel like kids, especially adopted or foster kids, they need help when it comes to being mentored.”
Frozen pizza assembly lines move fast. Usually, the dough goes down, sauce follows, cheese and toppings land on top, then the whole thing gets flash-frozen and wrapped in cellophane. But somewhere in that process, @drewtastic658’s pizza skipped step one entirely. Nobody noticed until he opened the box, expecting dinner, and got a $7 arts-and-crafts project instead.
Drew is not wearing a shirt, which is how we know this is serious. This is a man who saw cardboard where crust should be and said, “The world needs to know, and they need to know rightnow.” The audacity of California Pizza Kitchen could not wait for a tank top. To be fair, righteous indignation burns hot. And 313,000 viewers didn’t seem to mind.
Walmart Customer Gets Heated
“I’m gonna show you guys what I just found,” he started. “This is the pizza we got from Walmart. Look at this: the pizza they gave me. Not opened. Still in the plastic.”
He shows that the pizza has no crust.
“’Crispy thin crust.’ … This is cardboard. This is what [the pizza] usually sits on. They put the cheese, chicken, and barbecue chicken recipe on cardboard. This is on cardboard.”
At this point, Drew is beside himself.
”Are we watching this? They forgot the crust. This is what I paid $7 for, cardboard?”
At this point, he is running his fingers through the toppings on the cardboard.
“Do we need a closer look at this? Are we out of our minds?” he asked. “This is cardboard. This is cardboard. On my—this isn’t crispy thin crust. Cardboard covered with pizza toppings. Walmart and California Pizza Kitchen, I want my money back—now.”
Drew continued reading the box.
“’No artificial flavors. Preservative-free crust,’” he said sarcastically. “Are we sure about that?”
Then, he shows the second, correctly constructed pie: “This is what it should look like. This is the cardboard under it—under the crust—and then the crust is on top. This is a crispy thin crust.”
Drew even got into why he had the pizzas in the first place.
“I got two because I usually eat two,” he says. “Not in one sitting; I’m not that fat. But I only have one, and the other one’s in the garbage.”
For one last comparison, he reiterates for educational purposes, “This is a pizza crust. This is pizza. Are we seeing this together? This is pizza. This is cardboard. This is pizza. This is cardboard.”
Got it, Drew.
The Peanut Gallery
“It probably tastes the same either way,” joked one commenter. One person said, “It’s keto-friendly.” Another said it was a “boneless pizza bruh.”
A commenter wrote that he should “just go to Domino’s…. better deal than frozen pizzas.” But Drew replied, as a call back to his eating in the clip, “I can eat this whole pizza on a calorie-restricting diet tho.”
Hidden Valley Ranch got in on the humor: “Whoever made that’s lowkey over that job.”
California Pizza Kitchen got back with Drew directly in the comments section. “That’s definitely not the pizza experience we promised!” it wrote. “Send us a DM and we’ll make it up to you.”
The Issue
Nestlé-associated frozen pizza brands have had various issues and quality control failures. A customer who bought Jack’s Pizza frozen pizza in 2023 had the same issue.
“Who was in the factory making the pizza?” she asks in her video. “Literally, one [has] the toppings on the cardboard and the bread is on the bottom, and one came double breaded,” referring to the fact that the second pizza came with two crusts.
Issues date back over a decade to 2013. A Wisconsin food company recalled DiGiorno and California Pizza Kitchen-branded pizzas after complaints that small pieces of plastic were found in the products. One situation resulted in at least one injury when a consumer chipped a tooth after biting into the pizza.
This isn’t a one-off. Nestlé’s frozen pizza lines have a documented history of this exact assembly error across multiple brands. Drew’s CPK pizza mishap is just the latest in a series of recorded events.
And Nestlé knows about it. It has been asking retailers to provide full refunds to affected customers in various recalls. However, it seems like it would be cheaper and easier to strengthen its quality control processes.

50 Cent gave us a response, just not the one most Hip-Hop fans had queued up for their Christmas weekend playlists. After all the anticipation surrounding bars aimed in his direction, the Queens mogul finally spoke. But instead of a diss record, or even a slick meme designed to set social media on fire, what we got was a statement. Plain. Controlled. And capped off with a quiet warning that felt intentional.
The message from 50 Cent essentially said this. He is not responding yet. He will respond when he is ready. And when he does, it will be on his time. The final line carried just enough edge to remind people that silence does not equal surrender.
The reactions afterward were just as revealing. In the comments, Maino appeared amused, firing off laughing emojis like he was watching a sitcom. Aw, 50…this is going to be good.
There are a few ways to interpret 50’s approach. One possibility is that he is doing what he has always done best. Taking notes and digging around. I’d say he’s lining things up before unleashing a more calculated response. His history shows that when he comes back, it is rarely just about music. It is about pressure.
Another angle is brand alignment. 50 Cent is no longer just a rapper sparring for bragging rights. He is a major phenomenon with film projects, television empires and sponsorships. Jumping headfirst into lyrical warfare with four capable New York rappers is risky for his brand. It could be too messy.
Fabolous, Jim Jones, Maino, and Dave East are all still very much rap rappers. They are MCs. They can go bar for bar with just about anyone and do not have to worry about losing movie deals or corporate partnerships. That freedom allows them to get in the mud if they want. 50 may not want that smoke in this phase of his career.
From a Hip-Hop standpoint, this hesitation does not feel great. Fans wanted that old 50 energy, not executive restraint. But strategically, 50 likely understands that once he jumps in, there is no easy exit.
So the real question remains. Is this the calm before a major storm or a delay…with no end?
A company created by the late mother of Tupac Shakur is pushing back against a lawsuit that claims unpaid royalties tied to some of the rapper’s most famous recordings, arguing the case rests on a flawed reading of long-standing contracts.
Amaru Entertainment Inc., founded in 1997 by Afeni Shakur, has asked a Los Angeles County judge to dismiss claims brought by Capucine Jackson, the widow of producer Johnny “Johnny J” Jackson. Jackson alleges she and her company are owed royalty payments connected to music her husband produced for Shakur.
Johnny J was a key creative force in Shakur’s catalog, producing or co-producing tracks such as “How Do U Want It,” “Hit ’Em Up” and cuts from the album “All Eyez On Me,” according to the complaint. He entered into a producer agreement with Amaru in May 2001 that governed his royalty rights related to master recordings featuring the rapper.
Jackson contends that whenever Shakur’s successors receive royalties from those recordings, she and Klock Work are entitled to a proportional share. Amaru disputes that interpretation.
In court papers filed Monday ahead of a March 19 hearing before Judge James I. Montgomery, Amaru’s attorneys argue there are no triable issues because the relevant agreements do not support Jackson’s claims. They point to contracts from 1999 and 2001 that, they say, only require Amaru to issue letters of direction for royalties generated by sales or exploitations through Shakur’s distributor, Interscope Records or its licensees.
The dispute centers in part on royalties collected by SoundExchange, a nonprofit that began operating in 2003 and distributes digital performance royalties from online and satellite radio. Amaru maintains SoundExchange is not covered under the agreements cited by Jackson and that neither contract grants her a share of those digital performance royalties.
Shakur was killed in a drive-by shooting in Las Vegas in September 1996 at age 25. Afeni Shakur oversaw his musical legacy through Amaru Entertainment until her death in 2016.
Tyrese is healing and shared a very public ending to a lot of drama. The singer and actor has revealed the financial toll of his divorce from Samantha Gibson. I could not help but think, it is more than my value.
According to a lengthy Instagram post, Tyrese says he has spent nearly $2 million in legal fees during “one of the most emotionally draining seasons of my life.” He also alleged that he endured “almost $50 million worth of public scrutiny, PR damage and reputational attacks” tied directly to divorce and child support battles.
Tyrese revealed that the divorce is officially finalized and says he’s turned the page. This is a full reset.
“First stop: Turks and Caicos Birthday and New Years 2026!” he wrote. “Capricorn season! Birthday Dec 30th and a NYE 2026 birthday celebration LEGENDARY WHITE PARTY that will hit on NEW LEVELS.”
In classic Tyrese fashion, he said, “I’m walking proof that the cup still runneth over. [ the true bag bag stayed tucked tucked while lawyers was on the prowl FOH ]. I feel LIBERATED only the real ones out there can truly relate…. The devil tried! THANK YOU JESUS!! I survived!!!”
He said his ex essentially stole on him.
“There’s nobody in the world who’s caught me more off guard and hurt me more than that woman,” he said. “So no, I don’t trust you. I will never ever be able to unsee and unfeel.”
He stressed he is not bitter.
“Doesn’t mean I’m festering and I’m bitter. It means thank you Jesus that someone in their true intentions was revealed to me and I’m gonna make the decision to not hang out with pain.”
Tyrese and Samantha share a daughter, Soraya. They married in 2017, filed for divorce in 2020, and spent years embroiled in drama. Salute the brother for coming up out of that on top. Love and life.
Clavicular got banned from Kick after his Tesla Cybertruck hit someone during a Christmas Eve livestream in Miami. The 19-year-old streamer, whose real name is Braden Peters, claims he acted in self-defense.
Clavicular built his following through “looksmaxxing” content on Kick and TikTok. He teaches people how to improve their appearance and has become popular with younger viewers who follow his advice on facial exercises and grooming.
“You saw that?” he said to someone in a reflective jacket. “Bro, they were surrounding our car. Yeah, exactly, I can’t see s###. Well, that’s why… when you’re afraid… well, I don’t know what’s going on.”
Clavicular claimed he thought someone had a gun. He said he saw what looked like a pistol outline under someone’s clothes. Police have not confirmed this claim.
Adin Ross called Clavicular during the aftermath. Ross told him to keep recording everything. “You need to be live for this. Okay? You need to be recording something,” Ross said.
He told Clavicular not to answer questions and to document what happened. Ross later said the person who got hit was alive, according to his associate.
Kick banned Clavicular’s account after the incident. The platform hasn’t explained why they removed his channel.
Clavicular has dealt with stalkers before. Earlier this year, the same person who got hit by his Cybertruck threw red liquid on him and another streamer called N3on. This shows the incident wasn’t random; there was a prior conflict between them.
Police questioned Clavicular but released him without charges. The investigation continues.
Craig Mack and The Notorious B.I.G. were the first two artists signed to Diddy’s Bad Boy Entertainment, launching the label with a one-two punch that helped define 1990s Hip-Hop.
But while their careers began with promise, both artists met untimely ends. Biggie was murdered in 1997 and Craig Mack died from AIDS-related complications in 2018.
Now, Mack’s ex-wife, Roxanne Hill, is raising eyebrows with explosive claims that his illness may not have been a random tragedy. During a sit-down with The Art of Dialogue, Hill said she believes her former husband was deliberately infected with AIDS.
“Yes, I do. I do believe that,” she said when asked if she thought someone intentionally gave Mack the virus. Hill explained that Mack himself suspected foul play.
“Craig had a feeling that it was something given to him, not in I guess the way people usually contract AIDS,” she said.
She also recalled Mack warning a friend in South Carolina to “be careful because they will put someone with you and they’ll poison you,” a statement he made before his diagnosis became public.
“Craig was a very heterosexual man,” Hill said. “He liked women. He liked the company of women. So when people were saying, ‘oh, he was gay,’ he wasn’t gay. Someone got to him.”
She added that his illness appeared suddenly and without warning.
“It was just like out of the blue,” she said. “You know, if their father had been an intravenous drug user, sharing needles, they would know the probability of him getting sick from that. But this was just like out of the blue.”
Hill also said her children have struggled to understand how their father became sick.
“They’re like, ‘How?’” she said. “If it had been drugs, there would be a clear path. But there’s no explanation.”
She noted that she has theories about what happened but is unable to share them. “I have speculations,” she said. “But I’m not at liberty to discuss those right now due to my attorneys telling me not to talk about it.”
After Craig Mack’s death, Hill said she spoke with the coroner in South Carolina.
According to her, the coroner told her that Mack had likely been living with the virus for a decade or more without receiving treatment. That timeline, she said, suggests he contracted the illness while still living in New York.
“When you do the math, that timeline places him back in New York when he became ill,” she said. “How it happened remains unclear. There has been speculation, but I cannot discuss that now because my attorneys advised me not to. What I can say is that it leaves the strong impression that something was done to him.”
Craig Mack, known for his 1994 hit “Flava in Ya Ear,” left the spotlight in the late ’90s and eventually joined a religious commune in South Carolina.
He died on March 12, 2018. The Notorious B.I.G., his Bad Boy labelmate, was killed in a drive-by shooting on March 9, 1997.
Mack died just three days after the 21st anniversary of Biggie’s death—exactly 21 years and 3 days apart.
Deportation petitions? This tells you exactly what kind of strange chapter we are in right now. Can we get to the end of the book? The rap superstar is already dealing with backlash over her pivot into MAGA-friendly territory, but her detractors want her removed from the United States altogether.
Yes, really.
According to chatter spreading across social media and message boards, a petition has surfaced calling for Nicki Minaj to be deported back to Trinidad. The logic being presented is a mashup of grievances that range from alleged harassment involving Jay-Z and the Carter family to concerns about her husband, who is a registered sex offender, and what petitioners frame as public safety issues. It is a grab bag of outrage, screenshots and drama stitched together.
What makes this moment especially bizarre is how ambitious the tagging got. The petition name-checks everyone from White House officials to federal agencies, including ICE and the FBI, along with Joe Ellen Darcy, an assistant to the secretary of the Army. None of these entities have acknowledged the petition.
Here is the exact argument as describe in the petition:
Nicki Minaj is currently spiraling out of control and seems to be experiencing psychosis. Her erratic behavior has led her to harass the Carters, a well-respected and completely innocent American family. Despite having no justifiable reason to target them, her relentless pursuit has become a source of distress and disruption for their lives. This type of behavior is not only unacceptable but warrants intervention on a societal level.
In addition to her personal misconduct, Minaj’s choice of partner puts further stain on her reputation. She is married to Kenneth Petty, a registered sex offender, whose criminal history brings additional concern. Despite the gravity of his past actions, Minaj continues to fiercely defend him, reportedly going as far as intimidating and threatening his victims. Such actions demonstrate a blatant disregard for the law and for the safety of others.
This is not just a personal grievance—it is a matter of public concern. Nicki Minaj’s influential status does not grant her the right to overstep legal and moral boundaries. Her actions have demonstrated that she poses a threat not only to the individuals she has targeted but potentially to the broader community.
Deporting Nicki Minaj back to her home country, Trinidad, seems the most viable solution to curtail her harmful actions. It would ensure the safety of American citizens and send a clear message that harassment and support of criminal activity will not be tolerated. Let us stand together in urging the authorities to take immediate action for the safety and well-being of all involved. Sign this petition to make our voices heard and ensure that justice is served. – Petition ink here.
Still, the numbers are doing what numbers do online. When this thing first surfaced, it had a few thousand signatures, but has crossed the 12,000 mark. The growth just means there’s more hate. LOL!
Let’s be clear. There is no realistic path where Nicki Minaj gets deported because people are mad at her politics or her personal life. For the record, some say her switch-up is due to all of the above. She wants to get her citizenship and wants to protect her family from all the things the Trump Administration is doing to regular immigrants.
That said, the whole situation is a snapshot of the current climate.
File this under things that are not likely to happen, but it is a major statement about how sentiments on a once-beloved Hip-Hop figure an switch-up.
Jake Paul’s jaw was shattered in two places when Anthony Joshua knocked him out in the sixth round at Miami’s Kaseya Center on December 19.
The slow-motion clip of the knockout became Netflix’s highest-performing live-event clip ever, with more than 214 million impressions across its social channels.
The fight also set multiple records beyond just the viral knockout clip. It reached Netflix’s Top 10 in 91 countries and ranked #1 in 45 countries, including the United States. The event also set a new record as the highest-grossing boxing gate at the Kaseya Center.
The Netflix event generated 1.25 billion impressions across the platform’s global social channels. The fight was a top worldwide trending topic on X, ranking #1 in the US, UK, and Brazil. The slow-motion knockout clip alone accounted for 214 million of those impressions.
The fight drew 33 million global viewers and attracted a star-studded ringside audience including Hip-Hop heavyweights Young Thug, Rick Ross, Swae Lee, Trippie Redd, Ty Dolla $ign, Timbaland, 6ix9ine and Freeway.
The knockout happened in the sixth round after Joshua dominated the entire fight. Paul had been talking tough before the bout, but got silenced when Joshua’s right hand connected flush with his jaw, dropping him to the canvas.
Paul’s jaw was broken in two places from the impact of Joshua’s punch. Medical experts said the fractures were severe enough to require immediate surgical intervention.
The 27-year-old had to have his jaw wired and will be on a liquid diet for weeks. The YouTuber-turned-boxer also had teeth removed during the procedure.
Both fighters earned massive payouts from the Netflix event. Reports indicate that Paul earned approximately $92-120 million, while Joshua earned $60-92 million, making it one of boxing’s biggest paydays ever.
Despite the devastating loss and injury, Jake Paul says he plans to continue boxing. He wants to drop down to cruiserweight for his next fight and has called out several potential opponents. Paul believes he can still compete at a high level once he recovers from his jaw surgery.
Jake Paul has not announced his next opponent, but says he wants to fight again in 2025 after fully recovering from surgery.
Kanye West slipped into a Los Angeles theater with wife Bianca Censori on Christmas Eve for a quiet date night at “The Nutcracker” ballet.
The 48-year-old rapper kept things low-key during their December 24 outing. Bianca wore a fur coat, while Kanye stuck to his usual incognito look, wearing a face mask.
Kanye took off his mask when the theater lights went down for the performance. But he put it back on during intermission and at the end of the show.
This marks one of their first public appearances together in months. The pair got married in December 2022 in a private ceremony. Their relationship has had ups and downs over the past two years.
Bianca is a 30-year-old architect who worked for Kanye’s Yeezy brand before they got married. She’s originally from Australia and moved to the US for work.
The couple picked “The Nutcracker” for their holiday date night. The classical ballet is a Christmas tradition for many families. But Kanye and Bianca went without his four kids from his previous marriage to Kim Kardashian.
Kanye has been keeping a lower profile lately, after his controversial public statements in recent years. The quiet ballet date fits with his more private approach to life these days.
King Harris clapped back hard after Blueface randomly said his new girl looks like T.I.’s son and the back-and-forth got real awkward real quick. It all started when Blueface told his followers that his boo, Nevaeh Akira, kinda looked like King Harris. That didn’t fly with the Atlanta native, who hopped online to shut that down.
“First of all, I don’t look like no female ever,” King said. “Second of all, why the hell would you say that, brother? I’m less mad, more like weirded out. Why would you say your girl resembles a guy?”
Instead of backing off, Blueface leaned in and made it even weirder. “King Harris is my type of b####,” he tweeted before hopping on live.
Then he doubled down with more wild talk: “See, here n##### go. They want to be funny now. I tried to say it the nicest way I could without calling you a b####, bro. You look like a b####. King Harris looks like my b####.
He kept going, throwing shade at King’s looks and voice.
“You want to go laugh and make it seem like you cute and handsome, and I’m weird? Ain’t nothing manly about you. You don’t look like a man, you’re petite, you lightskin.”
Then Blueface dragged his girl into it for laughs, telling her, “King Harris, come get in the bed, baby. I like the way you said that. Queen Harris? Ooh. With your little petite ass.”
King tried to explain why the whole thing was off.
“Props to her. She was like, ‘Well, that means I’m handsome.’ Nah, baby, you’re supposed to be beautiful, pretty, sexy. Men are handsome, you know? Don’t get her thinking she’s handsome, Blueface. I’m handsome. She’s the female, beautiful, you know? Man traits should not be there.”
This whole thing is yet another wild moment for Blueface, who’s been stirring things up ever since he got out of jail.
Meanwhile, King’s usually lowkey when it comes to Hip-Hop beef, but this one dragged him in whether he liked it or not.
Word on the street is Dr. Umar Johnson might have a major legal mess on his hands.
The talk centers on a filmmaker who says her situation with Umar started back in 2019 after she donated $2,000 to the FDMG school. She claims he followed up personally, and even pushed her to double her next donation. From there, she says the relationship shifted into business when Umar allegedly encouraged her to produce a documentary about his life. She claims she started doing early filming and prep work, then presented a budget of $86,000. She says Dr. Umar initially and reportedly acted like was “nothing”… until it was time to pay.
Uh-Oh…
That’s when the filmmaker (whose name is being withheld here) alleges the whole plan flipped. She maintains that the Prince of Pan-Africanism wanted her to front the money and take a revenue split later. She says she backed out, but claims Umar then pivoted and convinced her to do a different film project involving him – one she says she ended up funding. I see where this is going…but the film reportedly got done.
She claims once the project was ready for a private screening, Umar allegedly refused to show up, demanded a link to the full movie. She is telling people he started threatening her, claiming she couldn’t use his likeness. He denied signing a contract then demanded $500,000 to resolve it.
Then comes the “ohhh” part: she says Umar’s side eventually reached out to settle, and she received a check for $68,600 allegedly to stop her from making more videos and putting him on blast.
But according to the talk, that check didn’t end it—it leveled it up. She reportedly used the situation to help spark a donor lawsuit tied to FDMG, claiming around 40 people are now involved, and that lawyers are looking into where donation money went and whether anything crossed legal lines.
If any of this is true, illseed might have to label it a paperwork party. Doc could be headed for a real investigation, not just YouTube smoke.

Former reality TV star Tony McCollister was arrested on sick charges involving kids and dogs. The 43-year-old from Warren County faces two felony counts after cops say he uploaded child sex abuse material to his Google account and had sex with two dogs he owned.
The charges include pandering obscenity involving a minor and sexual conduct with an animal. Court papers say McCollister knowingly possessed and uploaded the illegal material and engaged in sexual acts with the two canines.
McCollister appeared in court on Thursday, where a judge set his bond at $250,000. According to WLWT, prosecutors asked for no contact with minors under 18 and no internet access if he gets out.
They also want him banned from having any pets while his case is pending in court.
McCollister starred on A&E’s Neighbors With Benefits back in 2015. The reality show followed three swinger couples in Hamilton Township, Warren County.
But viewers hated it so much that A&E canceled the show after just two episodes aired. The network pulled the third episode and never brought the show back. Entertainment critics said people couldn’t get behind the premise of watching swingers on TV.
McCollister told the judge, “I think so,” when asked if he understood the charges against him. His next court date is set for December 30 at 11 A.M.
The reality star’s fall from cable TV to criminal court shows how far his life has spiraled since his brief moment of fame. What started as documenting an alternative lifestyle on television has ended with serious felony charges that could send him to prison.
A California-based content creator is warning against one spot in Newport Beach. Her reasoning? The spot is an unsafe area for women and a walking human resources violation.
“The amount of messages I have received from people experiencing really awful things at Pendry is insane,” said Kim (@latina4days) in an Oct. 31 video with over 452,000 views. “All I’m gonna say is, ladies, stay away from Pendry. Do not lose sight of your dream because that place is not safe for women at all.”
In a video she posted on Sept. 19, Kim shared her story of what she says happened to her at one Pendry location.
What Is Pendry?
Pendry is a luxury hotel brand with multiple locations, serving clients across the United States and Mexico. The specific Pendry hotel that Kim refers to is located in Newport Beach, California, and is “a natural extension of Orange County’s one-of-a-kind allure, with a point of view that is all Pendry,” according to its main home page.
There’s a bar area and restaurant that are open to non-hotel members, as well as amenities exclusive to those staying at the Beach resort.
What Does Kim Say Happened at Pendry?
Kim says she visited Pendry’s Newport Beach hotel on Aug. 15, 2025. Right before she entered the building, her friend called her with an urgent matter, which she discussed outside. She let the rest of her group go inside without her as she had the conversation.
As soon as Kim’s call ended, she decided to meet up with her husband and friends who were waiting for her. She made it up the ramp and past security, locking eyes with some friends. But then, a man suddenly stuck his hand right where Kim’s neck was. He immediately began choking and smothering the woman. Despite this, she continued walking forward, heading straight toward her friends.
She immediately told them what had just occurred in the lobby, and they approached security with concerns about the man. Instead of supporting her and immediately kicking the man out, Pendry allegedly removed both parties.
When Kim walked outside, she noticed blood in her mouth that she quickly spat out on the ground. Later that night, she continued bleeding. Her voice was raspy and aching from the attack, something that lasted all the way until the next morning.
That’s when she decided to head to the emergency room and file a police report. Unfortunately, her injuries weren’t considered “severe” enough to file any formal complaints. Her bone was not broken, and because the man technically did not strangle her, she had little case.
Still, Kim posted the situation to inform her viewers. She says she did not intend to defame any person or business, but instead posted with the intention of trying to make women more aware when going out to similar locations.
Why Do Many Women Have Complaints Against Pendry?
Many commenters immediately understood why Kim warned against Pendry, but others were confused without the context of her Sept. 19 post. The two posts didn’t have a throughline connection, making them reach entirely different audiences.
But despite many people not understanding the full severity of Kim’s encounter at Pendry, they did have their own stories to tell. One shared, “I used to do ridesharing in Orange County, and I can definitely say that Pendry is the worst place for humanity. I have never been in that hotel but I’ve dreaded going into that driveway every time. I would also just say avoid Newport Beach like the plague if he can help it.”
Viewers described a wave of online social media posts that refer to this specific Pendry location as a place to avoid at all costs. One TikToker even said, “the bartenders have to be in on it,” because there have allegedly been so many dangerous encounters at the hotel.
Commenters supplied some thoughts on the matter, though, echoing that Huntington and Newport Beach are both volatile areas for people of color and may have dangerous lurkers.
While some said that women should be aware in “all spaces,” the general consensus was to be a little bit more careful at Pendry. Many warned to watch mixed drinks and be mindful of other guests in the Newport area.
AllHipHop reached out to Pendry hotels via email and Kim via TikTok direct message for comment. We’ll let you know if either party responds.
