Tiffany Haddish is learning the hard way about the hoopla that can arise due to the divulgence of secrets.

After causing a commotion with her reports of an unnamed actress biting the face of music superstar Beyonce, now – less than a month ahead of her historic gig as the first Black female hostess of the MTV Movie & TV Awards (click here to read more) – the rising star was greeted with news her ex-husband has filed a defamation lawsuit against her for claims he was abusive.

As we reported here, Michael B. Jordan is the personification of “dashing” aboard the cover of June 2018’s ‘Essence’ magazine (on newsstands now).

Continuing to ride the wave of buzz drummed up from the historic blockbuster, ‘Black Panther,’ the 31-year-old – who just turned heads via the HBO drama ‘Fahrenheit 451’ –  is undoubtedly hoping those good critical and commercial waves will bring over some residual appreciation for the sequel to his hit boxing film, ‘Creed’ (due in theaters later this year).

With Twitter collectively fanning itself over the heat generated from the star’s uncovered snaps inside the mag’s pages, we’re sure some will be reaching for ice once they cop a gander at the behind-the-scenes footage of the shoot’s creation.

Family, fan, and estate protests were not enough to keep ABC News from airing their unauthorized documentary on the life of the King of Pop and, as ratings indicate, they also weren’t enough to keep viewers from tuning in.

Titled ‘The Last Days of Michael Jackson,’ the 2-hour special – which aired May 24th – took never-before-seen looks at the rise and fall of music’s biggest persona and also unearthed interview footage with ABC News stars Barbara Walters and Diane Sawyer that had never previously hit the air.

‘The Real Housewives Of Potomac’ have been drumming up all sorts of buzz with their third season. 

Past instalments have seen etiquette serve as the center of conflict. However, the show’s third cycle has seen the drama between the Maryland matriarchs escalate like never before.

‘Potomac’ originals Gizelle Bryant, Karen Huger, Ashley Darby, and Robyn Dixon are back in the mix. As is last season’s addition Monique Samuels.

No nonsense newcomer Candiace Dillard (a former Miss America) has been cast as a full time Housewife – replacing Charrisse Jackson-Jordan who has been appearing in a “Friend Of” capacity.

Thus far, the show’s third outing has made for gripping viewing – so much so that many have pegged it the best Housewives franchise thus far this year.

And, per a newly released midseason trailer, there’s still a whole lot more to come.

Now it appears that this fact has lifted some of the weight Parks was forced to carry alone and seen her return to the series.
