The Truth about Christina Milian and JLo

For years, it was speculated that Christina Milian had some kind of beef with Jennifer Lopez. The two artists never spoke publicly about it themselves. However, the online community quickly rumored that JLo had screwed Christina over in the early 2000s.

According to American Songwriter, Christina actually co-wrote Play, one of JLo’s singles from her hit 2001 album, J.Lo. The song peaked at number 18 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and picked up a Teen Choice Award for best dance track of the year.

Christina’s voice can actually be heard on the song’s chorus. Although she was credited as a co-writer, she wasn’t given a feature credit for her singing contribution. This is something that didn’t sit well with some of her followers.

A number of online users have expressed their outrage on social media and community forums. One Reddit user wrote: “Milian does get credit for the background vocals, but being that she wrote the song and sung most of it, you would think she would get more recognition.” On a different Reddit discussion about JLo’s credibility as a singer, a user claimed that artists like Christina and Ashanti were the original singers of some of her songs.

Christina Denies the Feud Rumors

But what does Christina think about all of it? In 2023, she cleared the air about how she really felt about JLo and her work on the song Play. In her exclusive interview to Page Six, she explained that there wasn’t an ongoing feud between her and JLo.

Christina praised JLo for what she did with the song, which was originally intended to be on her own LP. She said that hands down, JLo nailed it. She was so good, and Christina loved that song.

Instead of being jealous that Play was taken away from her, Christina revealed that she was amazed that she got to be credited for writing a song for one of the biggest artists at the time. She said: “I couldn’t believe at 19 years old I wrote a song for J.Lo.”

In her interview, she shared that she actually came up with the song the same week that she was working on her successful debut single, AM to PM. According to Christina, it didn’t even take her more than a half hour to write the song.

When explaining how she came up with the lyrics, she said that she went to bed late after a night of partying, woke up the next morning and had to go to the studio. She had the track and hadn’t written anything to it.

When played the track, the melody of the first verse just began to flow out of her. Christina confessed that it was just too easy to write at that moment.

JLo Mistook Christina for an Assistant

She wrote the song in about 15 minutes. Christina added that it was a joke to her because she’d just started to become a writer.

At the time, Christina was signed with Def Soul Records. She didn’t think that they would want two party songs for her debut album. While she was happy with how Play had turned out, she preferred the song AM to PM.

So how did Play end up on JLo’s sophomore album?

Christina said that Play made its way to Tommy Mottola, the previous Chairman and CEO of Sony Music Entertainment. Once he heard it, he reportedly snagged the track for his star songstress who was signed to one of his company’s labels, Epic Records.

Christina explained that the next thing she knew, she was in New York. JLo was recording the song, and Christina came in to help rewrite some of the stuff.

An online user on an ATRL forum claimed that they’d once heard Christina say that JLo allegedly had no idea that she was the writer and she mistook her for an assistant. She was reportedly nice to her and offered to buy her a coffee.

Christina Doesn’t Care About Having a Feature Credit

During her interview, Christina opened up about how she had no hard feelings about not being credited as a featured artist on the song. She commented on how it was funny that people still talked about about her singing on the song with Jennifer.

She added that she had background singers on some of her songs. It was no different than Michael Jackson having background singers on songs or Britney Spears. To her, that was what music was made of.

It was good to have a blend of voices, it made songs better. Christina said: “I don’t need a feature credit, I’m on the credits for whatever nature, as a writer and for singing backgrounds. There is credit for that.”

She also shared that she was just so happy that Jlo did it because she was an icon. She admitted that she would still sing songs like Play and AM to PM when she had karaoke night with her husband, musician Matt Pokora.

Justin Beiber Also Owes Some of His Success to Christina

Play wasn’t the only song that Christina wrote for another famous artist. According to American Songwriter, she also co-wrote the song Walk Away (Remember Me) for the then up-and-coming artist Paula DeAnda in 2006.

One of the biggest songs she’s ever helped write has got to be the 2010 song Baby by Justin Bieber. She was part of a team of course. She co-penned the track alongside Justin, Ludacris, Christopher “Tricky” Stewart, and her ex husband, The Dream.

Christina even talked about the song in a recent interview with Elle. After the interviewer pointed out that the song had had a bit of a revival, after Justin announced that he and his wife Hailey Bieber were expecting, Christina shared how she honestly felt about the single she’d helped create over a decade ago. She said that when she heard the finished song, she knew that it was going to live on forever.

Christina is just one of many celebrities that JLo has been rumored to have had an alleged feud with. There’ve been so many over the years, and 2024 hasn’t been an exception.

JLo’s History of Feuds

Ayo Edebiri, who is known for her role on the hit show The Bear, was said to be feuding with JLo after some comments she’d made about her and her singing abilities. Deadline reported that in 2020, Ayo went on Laci Mosley’s podcast, Scam Goddess, and talked about how JLo’s singing career had been one long scam.

Ayo claimed that JLo thought that she’d been on multiple tracks, but it wasn’t her. She alleged that she wasn’t singing for most of her songs.

She said:“A lot of the write-ups of the songs will be like, ‘J.Lo didn’t have time to make it to the studio.’ Like, ‘J.Lo was busy.’ Doing what? Not singing, obviously.”

In 2024, those comments came back to haunt Ayo when she was booked to host Saturday Night Live. The musical guest was JLo.

Before the show began, JLo told Variety that Ayo came to her dressing room to apologise for what she’d said. She said that Ayo was mortified and very sweet.

She apologized with tears in her eyes, saying how terrible it was that she had said those things. Ayo even addressed the situation in one of her SNL sketches when her character said: “It’s wrong to leave mean comments, or post comments just for clout, or run your mouth on a podcast, and you don’t consider the impact because you’re 24 and stupid.”

Ayo talked about the incident in an interview with Vanity Fair later on in the year. She shared that the media’s allegations about how her podcast clip had started an alleged fight between her and JLo were ridiculous. She joked that it would be like Mr. Bean and Mick Jagger beefing, and that she was obviously Mr. Bean.

Who is Nelly’s Baby Mama?

June 11, 2024

Fans were thrilled with the recent news that Nelly and Ashanti are having a baby. But while this will be Ashanti’s first time experiencing parenthood, Nelly is a seasoned veteran.

In 2005, he adopted his sister’s two kids after she tragically passed away. He also had two children of his own with his former partner Channetta Valentine.

Not much is known about Nelly’s first baby mama, who has always preferred to keep out of the spotlight. According to her Instagram bio, she is or was a Travel Nurse. Channetta was born in 1976, making her 48 years old.

According to The Sun, she and Nelly dated for a long time. They were reportedly a couple between September 1990 and June 1999.

Nelly’s First Child Pursued Music

Their first child, Chanelle, was born back in 1994. Since becoming an adult, Chanelle, affectionately known as Nana, has tried her hand at many ventures.

She even followed in her father’s footsteps as a musician. She released her first single in July 2020 under the names Chanelle Valentine and Nellelove.

Taking the name Valentine suggested that Chanelle wanted to pay tribute to her mother, who had always stayed out of the spotlight while the kids were growing up.

However, this was not ever meant to look like Chanelle was taking a shot at her dad. According to reports, she did this with the full love and support of Nelly. Chanelle chose to chase a life in the music industry despite having attended Columbia College in Chicago for a business degree.

On her 27th birthday, Nelly shared a throwback photo of him and his daughter on Instagram. In the caption, he called her his mini-me.

It was revealed on Chanelle’s own social media that she actually has a child of her own. So, even though he’s just now having his first child with Ashanti, he’s actually already a grandfather.

Nelly and Tre Are Very Close

The rapper’s second child was a boy, named after Nelly. Cornell III, also known as Tre, was born in 1999.

As well as his name, Tre inherited even more of his dad’s traits. He is a former high school football player, just like Nelly, who was believed to have shown serious potential as an athlete.

However, he stopped playing after graduating to pursue other career ambitions. According to his Instagram page, which has over 150,000 followers, he now works as a producer.

Some insane reports have been written about Nelly’s son’s staggering net worth despite his young age. According to sources, he has a net worth of around $5 million.

Older reports also claim that Tre had a girlfriend named Macee Bradley. However, information on Tre’s personal life has shrunk in recent years. Despite his huge online following, Tre rarely shares anything about himself on social media.

Nelly has previously talked about how alike he and his son really are. In 2015, during an interview on The Real, he commented on the total lack of a generational difference between him and Tre.

He said that he and his son could literally just be buddies. They even wore the same shoes! However, he was also aware that there always be some differences between him and his kids.

His approach was always just to let whatever happens happen. He said that you have to let the youth be the youth. He would let them make their own mistakes while still trying to be a guide.

Nelly Was a Single Father, Not a Baby Daddy

In the same interview, Nelly was asked about his experience as a single dad, since he and Channetta were no longer raising their kids as a couple. He talked about how important it was that there were single fathers out there, instead of just baby daddies. It seemed that Nelly was focused on being present in his kids’ lives, instead of keeping his distance from them.

According to reports, Nelly’s two kids have different mothers. The identities of both have been kept from the public.

Nelly has been in numerous high-profile romantic relationships with some well-known women. These have included Eve, Lashontae Heckard, Karrine Steffans, and Kelly Rowland. Other than Ashanti, most of Nelly’s relationships were pretty brief.

The other woman who had the longest relationship with the rapper was Shantel Jackson. Shantel dated Nelly for around 7 years before they broke up in 2021. She was a major presence in his kids’ lives

Nelly met the actress shortly after she split up with boxing legend Floyd Mayweather. There had been rumors for a while that the couple ended things amid rumors of cheating.

Although Floyd was originally believed to be the guilty party, rumors soon started swirling that Shantel had had an affair with a well-known hip-hop star. Although nothing was ever proven, Nelly and Shantel went public as a couple that same year.

Things quickly became serious for the new lovers. Though Nelly has never married, Shantel quickly began putting out signals that she was ready to take that step with him.

The signs weren’t always that subtle. In 2016, Shantel shared an Instagram post featuring an elephant family of three, a father and mother with a baby elephant. Although probably accidental, it seemed pretty strange that the picture didn’t acknowledge the kids Nelly already had.

Nelly Adopted His Nieces

Despite parting ways without ever actually going down the aisle, there was no doubt that they both took their relationship seriously. Nelly clearly wanted Shantel to be close to his family.

She was even featured on Nelly’s short-lived reality show Nellyville. The show, which ran from 2014 to 2015, was the first time people saw the rapper at home with his kids.

It wasn’t just Chanelle and Tre who we got to see with their dad. Nelly actually also adopted his niece and nephew, Sydney and Lil Shawn.

This came about due to some heartbreaking circumstances. Nelly took in his new adopted kids in 2005 after the loss of his sister Jackie Donahue. She lost her life in a St. Louis, Missouri hospital after a years-long battle with leukemia.

According to Today, Jackie was diagnosed with the illness in March 2001. The cancer had been in remission for two years before Jackie suffered a relapse.

Nelly had done all he could to keep Jackie alive with multiple drives for bone marrow donations. Sadly, a match was never found.

According to Nelly’s publicist, Jackie and Nelly had been extremely close. She even worked as the rapper’s stylist.

After losing his sister, Nelly became the adoptive father to two more kids, becoming a single parent to four. A lot has changed since then, with Nelly now happy in a relationship with another kid on the way. If his track record is anything to go by, it seems that Nelly is more than ready to become a father all over again.

Housekeeper Exposes the Truth About Brandy

June 11, 2024

Back in March 2022, Maria Elizabeth Castaneda, who is also known as Elizabeth Juarez, had been Brandy’s housekeeper for nearly 20 years. She was 60 years old and since September 2002, she catered to R&B singer’s Brandy’s wants and needs; cleaning up after her, cooking her meals and seeing to her dirty laundry. She was paid $125 a day but then, she was suddenly fired.

Brandy’s Former Housekeeper, Maria, Sued Brandy for Wrongful Termination

She’s sued Brandy for wrongful termination, primarily accusing the singer of age discrimination. She claims that Brandy fired her on February 25^th 2022 because she ‘didn’t want an older employee’.

There were other allegations; no proper breaks or regular meal times, and years of no overtime pay. Even the court queried the lack of itemized pay slips as a violation of Castaneda’s employment rights.

Castaneda was still owed two days’ pay when fired. It’s an amount that doesn’t mean that much to some people. Perhaps a half-reasonable dinner out. But Brandy’s insensitive conduct has lost Castaneda her steady income and her benefits. At 60, it damaged her capacity to find similarly paid work.

Maria Castaneda Settled for $40,000

Initially, she sought damages totaling over $250,000 but in her modesty, she settled for only $40,000. The battle wasn’t over for Brandy though. Her lawyers, Lipes Law Firm, moved in to secure their fees. They asked the court to award them between $39,194.46 and $87,445.80 on top of the settlement.

When it looked as if Brandy would have to look to her own needs for a while, there was a twist. In January 2023, the court ordered her to pay just $32,000 of the fees. It firmly rejected the idea that her ‘star status’ automatically earned them a better bounty. The court even suggested the case could have been settled earlier, before the ‘unflattering’ allegations hit the media.

Thankfully, Brandy had the sense to be embarrassed. The incident raised all sorts of speculation about how she treated her staff although she has always denied Castaneda’s age discrimination allegation.

The technical defense her lawyers put forward didn’t help her cause. They argued Brandy didn’t employ enough regular staff for the state’s discrimination laws to apply. Anyway, they added that Castaneda was an independent contractor, and she had just quit.

Brandy was the star of ‘Moesha’ and is a grammy award winner, but on this one, the optics looked bad. She was accused of hypocrisy after being very outspoken in her support of social justice.

Brandy Norwood Sued By Designer

As it goes, Brandy is known for her sweet persona. She’s close to her mom and manager, Sonja Norwood. But this legal tangle wasn’t her only headache. In January 2022, she was sued by designer, Elle B. Mambetov, for failing to return a ring she had supposedly borrowed for the American Music Awards. Brandy denies she ever had it.

Even though the $40,000 settlement and a favorable ruling on lawyer fees meant Castaneda’s case didn’t make it to court, the allegations left a nasty taste in the mouth. Brandy’s good reputation is tarnished. This peek into her private life has disappointed many fans.

Jenn Harley’s Ex, Joe, Arrested

June 11, 2024

Jenn Harley, the ex girlfriend of Ronnie Ortiz-Magro, is going through some new and shocking relationship problems.

A few days ago, Jenn’s new partner Joe Ambriosole was arrested for strong armed robbery.

The news was first reported by Page Six, who revealed that Joe was taken into custody on May 26.

He was then charged with a felony according to court records.

The 36-year-old was booked in jail and later released on a thousand dollar bond.

Joe’s Lawyer Described Client’s Arrest As ‘Peculiar’

He made his first court appearance the following day, and his arraignment hearing is reportedly due to take place later this month.

Page Six reached out to Joe’s lawyer for comment, who described his client’s arrest as “peculiar.”

The attorney went on to say that it was “unfortunate that Mr. Abrosole has been arrested for something that allegedly occurred over 18 months ago.”

He continued, “My client unequivocally denies these allegations and looks forward to exercising his right to a jury trial.”

This was Joe’s second arrest in less than two months.

It was previously reported by Page Six that Joe had been arrested for a physical attack he allegedly perpetrated on Jenn.

Jenn Harley and Joe Ambriosole’s Custody Battle

This was connected to the on again off again couple’s ongoing custody battle.

Court documents stated that Joe had filed a petition for paternity in April in an attempt to stop Jenn from leaving the country with their son.

This came about after Jenn had allegedly run away to Las Vegas with the 6-month-old Jayden.

The court documents went on to state that Jenn had obtained a “stay away order” against Joe.

This was obtained after his arrest for DV on April 15.

Jenn Claimed Joe ‘Repeatedly’ Banged Her Head Against Stove …

Page Six reported that an altercation between the two started after Jenn refused to tell Joe who she was texting while they were trying to be intimate.

Jenn claimed in the court document that Joe “pinned her head down to the bed,” before he dragged her “down the stairs by her hair.”

The allegations then got even more horrific.

Jenn claimed that Joe then “repeatedly” banged her head against the stove, refrigerator and dining room wall.

Officers eventually arrived at the house after being called to the scene by a neighbor.

The cops later told the court that Jenn had “visible injuries” to her face and was bleeding from the back of the head.

Jenn even claimed that she had been choked to the point where she “began to black out.”

Joe was also booked for felony assault with a deadly weapon, as Jenn alleged that he had actually held a knife to her neck.

After his arrest, Joe claimed that he was no longer able to have any contact with his son.

He stated that he had tried to “work out a temporary time sharing schedule” for their kid, but Jenn had ignored it.

Jenn Arrested For Holding ‘A Loaded Pistol’ Against Joe’s Head

The entrepreneur shared his concern that Jenn would leave the United States with Jayden.

He told the court that Jenn had planned to travel to London and Turkey to undergo “two different cosmetic surgeries.”

He went on to refer to some dark spots in Jenn’s past, mentioning her “long history of alcohol abuse” as well as “several stints” in rehab.

Joe also referred to a shocking incident in 2021, when Jenn was arrested for holding “a loaded pistol” against his head.

This incident, Joe claimed, was why Jenn’s ex, Ronnie, had primary custody of their daughter Ariana.

Jenn also has a 17-year-old son called Mason who she shares with her ex-husband, Joshua Rogers.

Jenn and Ronnie Ortiz-Magro’s Relationship

While she was dating Ronnie, Jenn was also seen on Jersey Shore: Family Vacation.

At the show’s premiere in 2018, Ronnie talked about how excited it was to think about his journey to fatherhood with Jenn.

They welcomed their daughter the following April.

But just a few weeks later, fans of the show watched Ronnie get a little too close for comfort with a woman he brought home from the club in Miami.

The incident actually occurred when Jenn was still several months pregnant back in Las Vegas.

Pauly D intervened when Ronnie and the anonymous woman arrived back at the house, and Ronnie regretted his actions the next day.

Ronnie and Jenn’s relationship continued to be a rollercoaster, with the two engaging in public feuds and arguments over social media.

At one point, Jenn went live on Instagram in the middle of an argument with Ronnie.

Ronnie could be heard in the background saying to Jenn, “Put your hands on me again.”

The video ended in a physical tussle as Ronnie apparently tried to wrestle Jenn’s phone away from her.

Jenn Allegedly Dragged Ronnie With Her Car

In June 2018, Jenn was arrested for battery after an incident in which she allegedly briefly dragged Ronnie with her car.

Their daughter was reportedly in the back seat at the time.

However, it was later confirmed that there was insufficient evidence to prosecute her.

Weeks later, the couple were back together, and even celebrated Fourth of July as a family.

But it wouldn’t last, with a series of further allegations of physical altercations ensuing before they finally broke up for good in 2019.

But in the years since, Jenn has continued to find herself in all kinds of ugly situations.

And now it looks like her newest partner Joe might become a convicted felon.

Ronnie’s Ex’s, Sammi, Thoughts About Reuniting With Ronnie

For his part, Ronnie recently returned to the spotlight for a brief appearance on the latest season of Jersey Shore: Family Vacation.

Sammi “Sweetheart” Giancola has recently opened up about what it was like to return to filming Jersey Shore with Ronnie after over ten years away from the show.

In an exclusive conversation with the outlet TooFab, Sammi talked about coming back to star with the rest of the cast.

In particular, she shared how she felt about having to be reunited with her ex, Ronnie.

Sammi made it clear that she was not too thrilled about having to come face to face with Ronnie again.

She told tooFab, “Like, it’s not ideal. I wasn’t looking forward to it, but I did know that if I were to come back on this show again, that this could be a possibility.”

Sammi added, “I mean, it’s a given. And I was like, listen, this person doesn’t affect my life anymore.”

And she even described being back around Ronnie as being like “just working with a coworker”.

However, she also made it clear that it wasn’t plain sailing.

Sammi told TooFab, “I’m not happy about it, but it is what it is and you’re gonna see me kind of navigate through that a little bit on this season.”

Sammi gave her interview ahead of Jersey Shore’s long awaited return to the screen.

Unlike her fellow cast members, it took Sammi years to come back for Family Vacation.

Sammi “Sweetheart” Giancola Reportedly ‘Avoided’ Ronnie

The follow up series started way back in 2018, but it wasn’t until the sixth season that Sammi felt comfortable taking part.

According to TooFab, Sammi refused to return until Ronnie stepped away from the show following legal and mental health issues.

Ronnie later returned to Family Vacation, and apologized to his co-stars for what he had put them through.

However, Sammi reportedly “avoided” him.

She also told TooFab that she was not hoping for a similar apology from Ronnie herself.

When asked, she said, “Hell no! There’s nothing that needs to be said.”

Whatever problems Ronnie might still be facing in his life, Sammi clearly wants no part in it.

Jenn, meanwhile, might still be stuck in the middle of the most recent disturbing charges laid against Joe.

Shanna Moakler Shades ‘Narcissist’ Travis Barker

June 11, 2024

Travis Barker’s ex-wife, Shanna Moakler, had a lot to let out about her tumultuous co-parenting journey with the Blink-182 drummer. During a recent appearance on SiriusXM’s Live, Shanna didn’t hold back, revealing her thoughts and experiences raising their children together.

The 49-year-old former Miss New York USA kicked things off by making it crystal clear that she has zero interest in competing for the title of “Best Parent.” According to her, parenting isn’t an Olympic sport with gold medals for the top mom or dad. She said, “I have no motivation whatsoever to prove that I’m a better parent.”

Shanna struggled to find kind words for Travis, referring to him as a narcissist and explaining how tough it has been to raise their kids together. With their kids, Landon (20) and Alabama (18), along with Atiana De La Hoya from a previous relationship, Shanna opened up about the constant clashes in their parenting styles that led to unnecessary fights.

She said, “I think it really comes from like when you’re dealing with, like a narcissist or you’re dealing with a controlling personality.”

Shanna didn’t stop there. She delved into the additional burden she felt due to societal scrutiny. People seemed to judge her more harshly than they did Travis, constantly labeling her as a bad parent.

“It is a topic that I don’t think a lot of people have really scratched the surface on and really have a clear understanding, and it happens to both men and women, both mothers and fathers,” she explained.

Despite these struggles, Shanna expressed her gratitude that her kids are now legal adults.

Shanna Would Not Comment on Travis’ New Relationship

According to her, Travis used his power and fame to frustrate her efforts as an equal parent, making it seem like they were always in a competition. But Shanna wasn’t interested in competing.

She admitted, “But I gave up. I was never really trying to compete. I gave that up a long time ago. I was like, ‘You win. Like you’re the winner.’”

Interestingly, Shanna mentioned that their co-parenting situation isn’t as bad now that the kids are older. While she and Travis aren’t friends, they manage to communicate when it comes to their children. “The one thing we’ve always agreed on is our kids and the best interest of our children,” she said.

Just when she thought the drama was over, the tension between them ramped up even more when Travis got together with Kourtney Kardashian. However, Shanna had no comment on their marriage, making it clear that she wasn’t bitter or jealous.

She simply didn’t feel the need to address it. “I really don’t have anything to say about it. It’s not because I’m bitter, and I’m definitely not jealous,” she stated.

Wrapping up her candid revelations, Shanna shared that she’s freed herself from societal expectations and judgments. She now lives life on her own terms, focusing solely on her relationship with her children. “I only care about my relationship with my children,” she concluded.

It’s clear that behind the glitz and glamour, there’s a whole lot of drama and emotional turmoil.

Miranda Lambert fans have been buzzing ever since she opened up about her stance on having babies. The country music superstar, known for her powerhouse vocals and down-to-earth charm got everyone talking, after revealing that she doesn’t want to have kids of her own.

Miranda, has been a fantastic stepmom to her husband Brendan McLoughlin’s adorable 4-year-old son Landon. Despite her loving relationship with little Landon, Miranda doesn’t foresee a future for her as a mother.

A close source spilled that Miranda feels kids aren’t the secret to a happy life. She’s all about living her best life and focusing on herself, adding that she is very satisfied with where she’s at right now.

However, her views aren’t new. Miranda has held onto this standpoint for a long time, and it doesn’t look like she’s likely to change her mind anytime soon.

Brendan Would Love Another Baby

On the other hand, 32-year-old Brendan is of a different view. You’d think he would be dreaming of more kids, especially with someone as amazing as Miranda.

An insider close to the two disclosed that while Brendan would love to have a baby with Miranda, he’s totally cool with her decision. He respects her choice and loves her no matter what.

Miranda and Brendan’s relationship is a love story that’s defied the odds. Remember when everyone said Miranda and Brendan wouldn’t make it because of their eight-year age gap?

Well, they’ve proven all the naysayers wrong! Their relationship is rock solid, showing the world that age is just a number when it comes to true love.

Let’s not forget that Brendan already has a child from a previous relationship. His son Landon is now four years old, and Brendan seems perfectly happy being a doting dad. So, it looks like this blended family is doing just fine without adding more kids into the mix.

Usher’s Mom Speaks Out About STD Allegations

June 11, 2024

The spotlight is blazing on Usher, but not in the way he’d hoped. The seasoned R&B star has been slapped with a jaw-dropping $20 million lawsuit by one Laura Helm. Laura accused Usher of infecting her with herpes.

This single accusation opened Pandora’s box of scandal. Another man stepped forward with similar claims, saying he met Usher at a Koreatown spa. The result of their intimate encounter was herpes.

As if that wasn’t enough to make Usher stop his herpes-spreading spree, yet another woman emerged, accusing him of infecting her too. Tragically, she claims this led to a stillbirth of her twins.

Usher’s Mother Could Not Stay Silent

With Usher’s name being dragged through the mud for months, his mother, Jonetta Patton, couldn’t stay silent any longer. Jonetta, who managed Usher’s career until 2007, took to Instagram in a heartfelt post, making it clear she was not happy with the situation.

She wrote, “If I were IN CHARGE this USHER drama would never have gone down…too much positive work went into making this MEGA STAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!……..I can’t stand by and watch this!!! I apologize to each and everyone of you!!!!!!!……too much for me!!!!!!!!!”.

She also added, “Thank you all for your words of wisdom, encouragement, and prayers yesterday! I am a believer and I have faith in God that he shall have the victory.”

Jonetta was her son’s manager until 2007 when he married Tameka Foster much to his mother’s disapproval. Jonetta refused to even attend the wedding. It seems she was relieved when Usher and Tameka’s marriage ended two years later.

Usher remarried in 2015 to Grace Miguel, but even that didn’t shield him from these relentless herpes scandals and accusations of infidelity. Jonetta’s Instagram post said it all—she wasn’t proud of her son’s negative publicity. Her words were full of pain and disappointment regarding the turmoil Usher’s life has spiraled into.

Why the Johnstons Cut Off Anna

June 11, 2024

When 7 Little Johnstons returned for its 14^th season, fans had a lot of questions. Anna remained part of the series but was routinely “forgotten” about. Now, fans are tired of the treatment of one of seven siblings.

Fans note that it would be normal for Anna to have trouble with one parent. People don’t always get along with both parents due to personality clashes.

However, Anna’s treatment by the Johnston family is at an all-time low. Even the younger siblings are shunning her.

One Reddit user, Simplyleen, shared a congratulatory post for Anna on the 7 Little Johnstons subreddit. She graduated college but was excluded from the family photos of successes in 2024. Fans made sure to rectify that.

According to MSN, fans aren’t happy about Emma Johnston’s comments. Emma and her brother Alex were included in graduation pictures.

Fans noted that Anna was missing, leading to Emma stating, “This post is for me & Alex graduating not that one certain person so please stop with the nonsense comments. Thank you.”

Knowing that it was directed toward those asking about Anna, the younger sibling’s statement upset a lot of fans. It came off the back of family members unfollowing Anna on social media, a clear sign in the reality TV world that someone isn’t liked or wanted.

Could Anna’s New Boyfriend Be Part of the Problem?

TV Shows Ace suggests that the family’s treatment of Anna is linked to her new boyfriend. Anna took to social media to share her new love, although she kept his face covered with an emoji for his privacy. Is it possible that Anna’s family doesn’t approve, and this has led to more issues between them?

The 24-year-old reality star is also happily going her own way. She has recently bought a new home and graduated college. She runs her own business and is focused on doing what is right for herself.

Her new boyfriend may be the one to encourage Anna to break away from her family rather than her family being the ones to cut her off completely.

Reality Tidbit turned to a family therapist to understand a little more about the situation from Anna’s point of view. The therapist explained that the treatment of her in the past could lead to feelings of animosity and seclusion now. This will make it harder for her to have positive relationships with family in the future.

Are the Johnstons Jealous of Anna?

Fans have their own theories considering their “condescending” remarks about the sibling. They believe that the Johnstons are jealous of Anna. They continued to downplay her intelligence, and everyone treated Anna differently.

Despite all this, Anna continues to thrive.

While Anna’s family is shutting her out, the 7 Little Johnstons family continues to keep track of and celebrate her successes. Now fans want to see Anna get a spin-off on TLC, allowing her to thrive in her own right and not have to deal with her family again.

Angelina Pivarnick from Jersey Shore Charged with Assault

On June 5th, TMZ reported that Angelina Pivarnick of Jersey Shore was facing “criminal charges after some sort of incident.” Angelina’s lawyer allegedly commented to TMZ that “the whole ordeal has been blown out of proportion.”

Asbury Park Press followed up with an article on June 7th, claiming that court documents offered them a “glimpse of what happened” at Angelina’s home the weekend before.

A Page Six exclusive described Angelina’s home as worth $1.3 million. Shockingly, Page Six also reported that Angelina has accepted an offer to appear at an adult entertainment venue and would be paid “a hefty sum of money for it.”

TMZ obtained a “municipal summons” dated June 2nd that allegedly listed Angelina’s charges. These included “simple assault, criminal mischief, obstructing the administration of law, and resisting arrest.”

TMZ wrote that Angelina was charged after a DV investigation at her “Freehold Township home.” The Asbury Press confirmed that 37-year-old Angelina shares the home with Vinny Tortorella. They both star in “Jersey Shore Family Vacation.”

TMZ wrote that Angelina and Vinny “got engaged last year,” and claimed there was “no specific indication” whether Vinny was “involved” in the incident. They also contacted Angelina’s lawyer, James Leonard, who revealed a twisted side to this story.

According to James, Angelina was involved in a “very minor incident.” He alleged that it got worse because Angelina had “an adverse reaction to prescribed over-the-counter medication.”

James sounds confident that the “matter” will be resolved “favorably.” He and Angelina look forward to “putting it behind us.” He added that Angelina was “home resting,” and she would have “no further comment at this time.”

Police Refused to Release Details About the Incident

TMZ claimed that the court documents provided no additional details. Allegedly, the municipal summons included a note that any further information was “unavailable” because Angelina’s situation was deemed “confidential.” But that didn’t stop TMZ.

They tried “contacting the Freehold Township Police” for the scoop, but TMZ added that they were “shut down at every turn.”

Allegedly, Freehold police told TMZ that they couldn’t provide further details of “whatever happened at Angelina’s house,” claiming they had a “reason” to remain silent. The “reason” that Freehold police gave TMZ was “legal exemptions.” This prevents them from releasing information to the public about DV cases “and/or criminal investigations” involving well-known defendants like Angelina.

TMZ claimed, “We do know Angelina will have to answer for these charges,” adding that her court date is July 2024. It sounds like TMZ was jumping through hoops to try and set the record straight from the West Coast, while the more local Asbury Press received many more shocking details from their sources.

Asbury Press confirmed that Officer Christoph Poss is with the Freehold Township Police. He allegedly signed the complaint, which was shockingly specific about what happened at Angelina’s house when the incident occurred.

Angelina Resisted Arrest

According to Officer Poss’s complaint, Angelina “did commit an act of obstructing.” You won’t believe what he meant by that.

Allegedly, Angelina took off from “uniformed officers” who arrived at her home, and attempted to “run into a house” and “lock the door.” Officer Poss claimed that Angelina did this to prevent officers from completing their DV investigation.

Officer Poss’s complaint alleges that Angelina resisted arrest when she was “taken into custody.” Angelina allegedly resisted by pulling away her arms and refusing to listen to “the instructions of the officers.”

While TMZ alleged that they had no information that Vinny was in the home when the incident happened, the Asbury Press confirmed that there was a male “victim.” However, his name was “redacted from the complaint.” So, who is this mystery “victim?”

Officer Poss’s complaint stated that Angelina allegedly struck the victim “with her hands/fists.” They suffered injuries that included “scratches” and “redness,” as well as a “complaint of pain” in their hands.

New Jersey law considers these alleged actions as “simple assault,” but Asbury Press noted that the complaint against Angelina did contain an error. The officer spelled Angelina’s last name wrong, listing her as Angelina “Pavarnick,” not Pivarnick.

Vinny Refused to Comment on the Situation

Asbury Press explained that the charge of “criminal mischief” that Angelina is facing happened when she allegedly began hitting a vehicle owned by the “victim” with her hands, causing “damage under $500.” The complaint stated that Angelina’s “victim” provided Freehold police with a video that allegedly showed Angelina committing “criminal mischief” and damaging the vehicle.

Asbury Press reported that Vinny provided “no comment” on the incident. This is according to a statement from Vinny’s lawyer, Elizabeth Rozin-Golinder.

Elizabeth also confirmed that Vinny and Angelina are “still living at the Freehold Township residence.” Ashbury Press wrote that “the home is often featured on ‘Jersey Shore Family Vacation.’”

But this wasn’t the first time someone called local law enforcement to Angelina and Vinny’s place. A report published by Asbury Park Press in August 2023 claimed that Angelina had “called police on Vinny 2.0.”

Asbury Press alleged that Angelina and her “fiancé Vinny Tortorella had a flare-up at their Freehold Township home.” Angelina called the police because of this “alleged altercation.”

An exclusive report by Page Six also claimed that Angelina and Vinny’s 2023 engagement “was off to a rocky start.” Page Six obtained the police report from August 2023. Angelina “dialed 911 after an alleged instance” of DV, but when law enforcement showed up at the house, Angelina shockingly “declined to press charges” against Vinny.

Angelina’s lawyer released a statement to Page Six, and James confirmed that Angelina called the police and “decided not to file charges.” He did not provide further details.

James added, “This matter is now closed. Moving forward, Angelina would ask for privacy as it pertains to her personal life.”

Angelina and Vinny’s Relationship Is on the Rocks

Page Six also contacted Vinny’s lawyer, Elizabeth, who confirmed that Vinny and Angelina were “still engaged despite the incident.” But that wasn’t all. Vinny had something else to say.

According to Elizabeth’s statement to Page Six, Vinny denied “any act of impropriety” against Angelina that called for “police involvement.” Vinny also specifically denied that “any act” of DV had happened between him and Angelina. Page Six revealed another detail that many “Jersey Shore” fans are aware of: Vinny had proposed to Angelina during the “divorce party” she threw after she officially split up with “her first husband, Chris Larangeira.”

Another report by Asbury Park Press in May 2024 provided a shocking look into Angelina and Vinny’s “complicated relationship.” “Jersey Shore” fans will have witnessed this season’s finale when Vinny and Angelina “hit a rough patch” during a “trip to a desert resort in Tucson, Arizona.”

During the two-part season finale, Angelina got angry at Vinny because of his “workout schedule.” She was seen complaining that he was “working out again,” and Angelina said, “I don’t think I can handle it. It’s just too much!”

Vinny accused Angelina of being “bothered” by what he does. Angelina didn’t confess to that, but she admitted to something else.

She said she loved that Vinny “is very into his physique,” but then she called it “weird.” She said that Vinny is ruining it for her because working out is becoming his “whole life.”

Angelina Is Seeking Therapy

Asbury Press reported Angelia’s “list of grievances” regarding Vinny. She included “financial shortcomings” and a “lack of quality time spent” with her.

They also wrote what Angelina said to Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino, and if this is the real truth, it doesn’t sound good. Angelina told Mike on air that it was “best” for her to get her “life in order.” She admitted, “This is something I have to work on with therapy.”

As Page Six exclusively reported, Angelina is getting out of the house she shares with Vinny. She will be working for one night at an adult entertainment venue in Kalamazoo, Michigan.

Holly Johnson is the general manager of the Déjà Vu adult entertainment club in Kalamazoo. She said she’s “thrilled” that Angelina is hosting their 2024 Showgirl of the Year competition in June. Holly added that her “entertainers” are big fans of “Jersey Shore,” and even alleged that some of the girls “have personal relationships with members of the cast.”

Angelina went on Instagram and shared a “promo image” for the showgirl competition. She also shared that she’s “looking forward to the event.” Her caption said, in part, that she was “officially inviting” all her fans “to come out to meet me and hang out.”

The Untold Truth About Lainey Wilson

June 11, 2024

Lainey Wilson won her first Grammy Award in 2023. She should be the happiest country music star alive, yet she continues to struggle with the hate from fans.

Wilson is an artist who works hard for everything she has achieved. She continues to write music that matters to her and performs with her heart on her sleeve. Recently, she attended Congress to talk about the dangers of AI to the music industry.

Yet, despite the fame and the success, she struggles mentally. She opened up on Good Morning America about her struggles, both internally and due to haters online.

A TikTok Video Affected Her Mental Health

Lainey Wilson told Robin Roberts that in November 2022, she suffered from a bout of body confidence. It all started with some TikTok videos that showed off her butt.

This wasn’t a “small viral moment,” as she put it. The videos continued to circulate for months, turning it into something much bigger than she initially thought.

Wilson knows that her butt is on the larger side, and she wondered how people had only just noticed that. She has body confidence issues now and then, just like everyone.

However, she decided to brush off the comments and focus on the positive. New people were finding her music.

Wilson had to focus on how the likes of Dolly Parton and Reba McEntire would handle such comments. She channeled them to move forward.

Haters Will Always Hate Lainey Wilson

Despite all her successes and experience, Wilson admitted that she still gets nervous going out on stage. Whether it’s a crowd of 20 people or 20,000 people, she will struggle with nerves as she gets ready to perform, according to American Song Writer. That’s because she knows that she can’t please everyone.

She faced a lot of rejection over the years. While she is tough and is built for the country music industry in that way, it doesn’t make the rejection and the heartache any easier.

To make it harder for her, nobody seemed to care that while she was building a career, she struggled at home. Her father had been diagnosed with mucormycosis, a rare fungal infection that most people don’t survive.

She didn’t want to leave her dad’s side, but he encouraged her to follow this dream of hers. If he was meant to be here to see her, he would be.

There would be no hard feelings from him if he didn’t make it and she would have to attend his funeral instead. Wilson headed to Montana to film Yellowstone and hoped for the best.

Despite all the hate, Wilson doesn’t give in to it. Instead, she continues to work hard, which has led to her celebrating her first Grammy Award win in 2023.

She wants to be someone young girls can look up to. If they work hard, they can follow their dreams, too. Success is there, and Wilson has been inducted into the Grand Ole Opry as a member to prove that.
