As millions across the globe try to process the shocking death of Chadwick Boseman, so too is Ryan Coogler – director of ‘Black Panther.’

In an emotional open letter, the critically acclaimed filmmaker pays tribute to Boseman – who lost his four-year battle with colon cancer on Friday (August 28).

The star’s diagnosis was not known to the public and, as Coogler reveals, his collaborators were none-the-wiser too.

Echoing sentiments shared by Spike Lee (who directed Boseman in recent film ‘Da 5 Bloods’), Coogler shared that not only did he not know the specifics of the icon’s illness, he had actually been deep in the writing process for ‘Black Panther 2.’ A film in which 43-year-old Boseman was set to reprise the title role (T’Challa).

Masika Kalysha has one less gig to her name.

The ‘Love & Hip-Hop’ star came under fire when she took to social media faking a kidnap plot to promote her OnlyFans account. Yes, OnlyFans.

Sporting painted-on bruises, she informed distressed viewers she was in danger and had been “beat really bad.” She added that “they are coming back.” 

As it turns out, it was nothing but a cheap (and tacky) ploy to drive attention in the direction of her pay-per-view page.

According to Kalysha, the approach wasn’t rooted in selfishness. Quite the contrary.

For, she claims it was themed after ‘Double Crossed’ – the TV show she’s currently filming about human trafficking.

Understandably, producers for the series didn’t see the humor in her behavior and have pulled her from the show.

Now, she’s issued an apology.
