  • Chris Brown Faces $2 Million Lawsuit Over Unpaid Popeyes Restaurant Loan, Reports Say

    Chris Brown Faces $2 Million Lawsuit Over Unpaid Popeyes Restaurant Loan, Reports Say

    Singer Chris Brown is currently entangled in a legal battle after being sued for allegedly failing to repay a $2 million loan obtained from City National Bank (CNB) to invest in two ‘Popeyes‘ chicken restaurant locations, per Hip Hop DX

    The lawsuit, which originated in Georgia but was filed in Los Angeles due to Brown’s residency, reveals that CNB provided the loan to Brown and other parties, including singer-songwriter The Dream, to acquire ownership in the fast-food establishments.

    Although Brown and The Dream are not personally involved in the day-to-day operations of the restaurants, they are part of an investment group associated with the purchase. CNB states that the loan was granted in 2018 and attempts to collect repayment were made in subsequent years. As of February 17, 2023, the outstanding principal and interest on the loan amount to $2,140,901.74, according to the bank.

    The bank emphasizes that Brown is personally liable for the loan as a guarantor. Unfortunately for Brown, the bank has already secured a judgment in their favor in a Georgia court, making the Los Angeles case an effort to enforce the previously won lawsuit. Specifically, CNB claims that Brown is responsible for $1,314,367.40.

    It is important to note that the success of the ‘Popeyes’ restaurants remains uncertain, but CNB is determined to recover its loan. It is worth mentioning that Chris Brown already owns fourteen Burger King restaurants in Virginia, his home state. With an estimated net worth ranging from $50 million to $150 million, Brown’s financial situation may not be severely impacted by this lawsuit.

    The Dream, who is also involved in the investment, may face a similar situation, although it is unclear if the bank intends to pursue legal action against him. Should Brown decide not to settle the debt, he will likely face a protracted legal battle ahead.

  • President Biden Faces Backlash For Referring To Rapper LL Cool J As ‘Boy’ During Speech At The Congressional Black Caucus

    President Biden Faces Backlash For Referring To Rapper LL Cool J As ‘Boy’ During Speech At The Congressional Black Caucus

    President Biden mistakenly mispronounced LL Cool J‘s name and shortly after referred to him as

    “boy”

    during his speech at the Congressional Black Caucus on Saturday night, reports the NY Post

    LL Cool J, whose real name is James Todd Smith, along with MC Lyte, was honored with the Phoenix Award for their significant musical contributions at the annual awards dinner in Washington, D.C. during the CBC’s 52nd Annual Legislative Conference.

    “Two of the great artists of our time representing the groundbreaking legacy of hip hop in America, LL Jay Cool J, uhhh…”

    he said as the crowd laughed at his mistake.

    “By the way that boy — that man’s got biceps bigger than my thighs,”

    Biden added. Ignoring his mistake, he immediately went on to acknowledge MC Lyte while the audience applauded.

    As reported by The Post, the president has a track record of using the term

    “boy”

    to refer to African Americans, which is widely recognized as a racial slur when used to describe black men. Earlier this year, Biden used this word when mentioning Wes Moore, the first black governor of Maryland. Additionally, the president has previously faced criticism during his campaign for using the same term to describe his ability to collaborate with segregationist senators, which sparked controversy.

    Senator Cory Booker, a Democrat from New Jersey who was also running for president against Biden, expressed his disapproval of Biden’s actions in a statement.

    “You don’t joke about calling black men ‘boys’,” he said.

    T.I. Son Receives Backlash After Encouraging Homeless Man To Partake In ‘One-Chip Challenge’ With No Water For 5 Minutes In Exchange For $50

    T.I.‘s son, King, is currently receiving criticism for involving a homeless man in the one-chip challenge

    The challenge had raised concerns as a 14-year-old tragically lost his life after taking part in the popular ‘one-chip’ trend. The young individual, who passed out after consuming the chip, was later pronounced dead at the hospital. 

    Despite the disturbing nature of this news, it seems that T.I.’s son, King, has chosen to promote the challenge further. In a video shared by King himself, he can be seen encouraging a homeless man to take on the ‘one-chip challenge’ in exchange for $50. 

    In the video, King specifies that the man will only receive the money under the condition that he wait five minutes after swallowing the chip before drinking any water. This viral video has ignited significant criticism of King on various online platforms. 

    “I just think it’s so f—ed up to antagonize homeless people like wtf do you get out that you know they need money but u make them jump through hoops it’s soo foul I hate this world,”

    an Instagram user wrote regarding the now viral clip.

  • Instagram Influencer Receives 5-Year Prison Sentence For Lavish Lifestyle and Travel Funded By Fraudulent COVID-19 Relief Loans

    Instagram Influencer Receives 5-Year Prison Sentence For Lavish Lifestyle and Travel Funded By Fraudulent COVID-19 Relief Loans

    According to the US Attorney’s Office for Massachusetts, Instagram influencer Danielle Miller, 32, has been sentenced to a five-year prison term for committing fraud, per Insider

    Miller was found guilty of unlawfully acquiring

    “pandemic-related loans”

    and using the funds to support her lavish lifestyle. She reportedly utilized the personal information of more than 10 individuals, generating over $1 million in COVID loans from July 2020 to May 2021. To carry out her scheme, Miller employed forged driver’s licenses, featuring her own picture but bearing the names of her victims.

    “Ms. Miller isn’t an influencer, she is a convicted felon,”

    Acting United States Attorney Joshua S. Levy said in the statement.

    “In a quest for fleeting social media stardom, Ms. Miller relied on fraud to fund a lavish lifestyle of private jets, luxury apartments, and other accouterments of wealth.”

    Levy emphasized that the sentencing must serve as a clear message that building an elite social media persona at the expense of 

    “hardworking taxpayers”

    is a

    “path to prison, not fleeting fame.”

    Miller’s Instagram following includes Anna Sorokin, a convicted fraudster who posed as a wealthy heiress to gain entry into elite New York social circles. In a previous interview, Miller admitted to being a “con artist” with a charm that allows her to manipulate people. 

    She was arrested in May 2021 and later pleaded guilty to charges of identity theft and wire fraud. District Court Chief Judge F. Dennis Saylor IV recently sentenced Miller to five years in prison, and three years of supervised release, and ordered her to pay restitution. Additionally, she was forced to surrender several luxury items she fraudulently obtained, and over $600,000 from her residence and bank accounts was seized by the US government.

  • Sex Therapist Reveals She Engages In Intimate Relationships With Clients To Repair Troubled Marriages

    Sex Therapist Reveals She Engages In Intimate Relationships With Clients To Repair Troubled Marriages

    Olivia Bentley, a sex therapist, adopts a hands-on approach by engaging in intimate relationships with her clients, claiming to have positively impacted marriages and transformed lives, per The Post

    “I get physically involved with the majority of the people I see, I think that’s part of the appeal,”

    the

    “veteran”

    sex worker told Kennedy News. With 15 years of experience in the industry, Bentley revealed that women have approached her to demonstrate

    “demo sex acts”

    on their husbands, while certain wives give their partners a

    “hall pass”

    to seek Bentley’s services.

    “Some ladies say, ‘I don’t always want to be involved in this but I want to know who you are, I want to approve of you and I’m going to let him come and see you,’”

    the 46-year-old sex educator, who makes $500,000 annually for her services, stated. When she’s not in the bedroom, Bentley, who has a client load of up to 10 per week, provides emotional support to her customers and offers advice on how to maintain a satisfying sex life.

    “People are usually nervous so I have to do my job at making them feel very comfortable and easing them into it, I’m kind of like the guide,”

    noting that she wants the women to

    “feel very confident and comfortable,”

    she told the outlet.

    “I’m very affectionate physically and emotionally towards the wife always. If she’s feeling very good, then the mood is elevated and we have a really good time and the husband is very grateful for the experience.”

    Although Bentley may not possess formal

    “counseling qualifications,”

    she holds a master’s degree in education and gained knowledge about intimate techniques during her employment at Nevada’s Moonlite BunnyRanch, a licensed brothel. As a self-proclaimed sex therapist, she criticizes women who deny their partners’ sexual needs, deeming it unfair.

    “I know there are a lot of sexless relationships out there and there are a lot of unhappy men,”

    she said.

    Bentley claims that her male clients have expressed that their sex lives have gone,

    “out the door,”

    after a few years of marriage.

    “It’s not an option to get married to a man and then turn around and say, ‘Oh, sorry, I’m not into sex anymore, too bad for you,’”

    she said.

    Additionally, Bentley advises her clients to keep it

    “spicy”

    outside of the bedroom by maintaining a fit physique which contributes to a fiery sex life. She believes that physical fitness has the potential to enhance libido.

    “The more athletic you are, the more sex you want to have — you feel more confident and aroused,”

    explained Bentley, a fitness enthusiast herself.

    “Couples who have sessions with me are the coolest in the world because they understand the importance of sexuality in their relationship as a part of maintaining a healthy marriage,”

    Bentley said applauding her clients for their

    “bravery”

    in establishing a healthy sex life.

  • Billy Porter Excluded From Met Gala As Invite Is Revoked After Referring To Anna Wintour As A ‘B*tch’ Over Harry Styles Vogue Cover

    Billy Porter Excluded From Met Gala As Invite Is Revoked After Referring To Anna Wintour As A ‘B*tch’ Over Harry Styles Vogue Cover

    It seems that Billy Porter won’t be attending the Met Gala next year, breaking his annual tradition. According to a report from RadarOnline, the fashion sensation had his invitation

    “revoked”

    due to his derogatory remarks about industry icon Anna Wintour.

    Porter expressed his frustration with Vogue’s controversial December 2020 cover, where former One Direction member Harry Styles wore a dress. The ‘Pose’ star, known for his gender-fluid fashion choices, claimed to be the trailblazer who

    “changed the world”

    by wearing a tuxedo dress at the 2019 Oscars. Despite his accomplishments, he felt overlooked for the historic cover opportunity.

    Although Porter later apologized for his comments, he reiterated his disapproval in a recent interview. Allegedly, he disclosed having a conversation with Wintour herself before Styles graced the magazine cover. Porter claimed that Wintour sought his insights on how Vogue could contribute to this groundbreaking era of fashion he spearheaded.

    “That b*tch said to me at the end, ‘How can we do better?’ And I was so taken off guard that I didn’t say what I should have said,”

    Porter said in the interview. Porter also claims that the Grammy Award winner, only landed the cover because he’s

    “white and straight.” 

    “It doesn’t feel good to me. You’re using my community — or your people are using my community — to elevate you. You haven’t had to sacrifice anything,”

    It appears that Porter’s remarks did not sit well with Wintour and resulted in the withdrawal of his Met Gala invitation.

    “While Billy is a sensation on the fashion scene, the designers have rallied behind Anna, a true titan of the industry,”

    a source told the outlet.

    Kim Zolciak Contacts Authorities On estranged Husband Kroy Biermann After He Allegedly Locked Her Out Of Their Joint Georgia Residence

    The ongoing feud between Kim Zolciak and Kroy Biermann has once again flared up. According to recently police documents obtained by OK Magazine, Zolciak called 911 after Biermann locked her out of their Georgia mansion. This incident occurred the day after Biermann filed for divorce for the second time this year.

    The documents reveal that Zolciak made the call around 11:50 p.m. on Friday, August 25, reporting a

    “domestic disturbance”

    at her home. The police report states that Zolciak claimed her husband had locked her out and that they were arguing. She also alleged that Biermann had threatened her.

    To gain access to the house, Zolciak had a locksmith drill into the door. Authorities arrived at the property around 1 a.m. the following day. The log further noted that Biermann had placed a pillow outside the door, preventing Zolciak from entering.

    Biermann had filed for divorce for the second time on August 24, but Zolciak received the documents the next day and has not yet filed a response.

    This drama between the estranged couple has been ongoing since May when they initially filed for divorce. Despite the tension and even police involvement, Zolciak and Biermann reconciled for a period of time before this latest turn of events.

    According to a source close to the couple,

    “They are still living together, but every day is an uphill battle… Those close to them think the reconciliation will be short-lived. There’s a lot of s— talking, and it’s hard to see how this will be resolved amicably. They are also not seeking counseling.”

  • Live Nation Says Travis Scott’s Concert At Egypt’s Giza Pyramids ‘Not Canceled’ After Egypt Musicians’ Union Banned Show Citing ‘Strange Rituals’

    Live Nation Says Travis Scott’s Concert At Egypt’s Giza Pyramids ‘Not Canceled’ After Egypt Musicians’ Union Banned Show Citing ‘Strange Rituals’

    It looks like Travis Scott’s scheduled performance at Egypt‘s Giza pyramids will not be canceled after all, according to Dailymail. The rapper, whose concert was set for July 28th at the famed Giza pyramids was reportedly banned by Egypt’s musicians’ union due to his music going against Egyptian

    “tradition.” 

    However, according to Live Nation, the planned concert is still in effect.

    “There have been no changes to Travis Scott’s show in Egypt,”

    the touring company announced in a statement to Billboard.

    “Any reports to the contrary are false. We can’t wait to celebrate Utopia with you in Egypt!” 

    The news comes after Dr. Mohamed Abdullah of The Egyptian Syndicate of Musical Professions told Egypt Today that the concert was canceled.

    “Regarding the concert scheduled to be held on 28th July at the Pyramids area in Giza by American rapper Travis Scott, the Musicians Syndicate, as the entity responsible for issuing licenses for music and singing concerts in Egypt, in coordination with the Egyptian Ministry of Culture represented by the Censorship Authority for Artistic Works and the Ministry of Labor, emphasizes the necessity of considering security aspects and obtaining approvals from the relevant authorities as a top priority when organizing concerts. This is to ensure the safety and protection of the audience,”

    he explained. 

    Dr. Mohamed Abdullah decided to suspend the show,

    “after examining the opinions expressed on social networks and the positions of the artist, the union has found images and documented information about the strange rituals he performs which go against our traditions”,

    continues the text. Scott’s Road to ‘Utopia’ concert is to promote the rapper’s fourth studio album. However, concerns still surround the artist after his Astroworld music festival that left 10 dead following a crowd surge.

    Dog The Bounty Hunter goes On Homophobic Rant, Says ‘God Made Adam and Eve… Not Adam and Steve’

    Duane Chapman famously known as Dog the Bounty Hunter had a lot to get off his chest about the LGBTQ+ community during a recent interview with podcast host Sharell Barrera, TMZ reported. 

    The former reality tv star appeared on the show Tuesday with his wife, Francie, where they discussed faith and religion. The host, Barrera, who reportedly owns an online Christian ministry, brought forth the topic of LGBTQ+ kids expressing their sexuality.

     Dog shared his opinion on the matter when he said

    “Jesus was not a sissy”

    — and that we don’t need any more

    “sissy men.”

    He went on to say,

    “God made Adam and Eve … not Adam and Steve.”

    He also said,

    “Anyone who was ‘coming for your children’ would have to get past Jesus’ blood and shotgun shells first.”

    reports state. 

    Dog was hit with a $1.3 million lawsuit in 2019 for allegedly making

    “racist and homophobic comments,”

    according to the Toronto Sun. 

    “Defendant is a disgraced reality TV star who was fired by Plaintiff after his company discovered that the Defendant had used racial epithets to attack Black teenage Black Lives Matter Activists,”

    according to the reported court documents.

    “Plaintiff’s investigation into the allegations of racial epithets also uncovered illegal activity,”

    the suit reportedly states, adding that Chapman

    “resorts to tired homophobic tropes, calling one of the openly gay Plaintiff ‘daddy’ in a mocking manner and making a vile and disgusting implication using the words ‘little boys’ and ‘daddy’ together.”
