‘Aladdin’ broke box office records and delivered over a billion dollars for Disney. However, the live-action remake of the flick hasn’t generated automatic success for its lead Mena Massoud.
Speaking in a new interview, the star got all sorts of candid about what life has been like since the film’s May release.

Hollywood, California’s Taglyan Cultural Center was packed Sunday (December 1) for the 29th annual DIVAS Simply Singing fundraiser.
Hosted on Worlds AIDS Day, the event – an annual “must see” created and hosted by actress/singer’s D.I.V.A. Foundation – stands as the United States’ longest-running musical AIDS benefit. Choosing legendary, award-winning songwriter Diane Warren as this year’s honoree, the house was chock full of artists who have sung some of the penman’s most memorable tunes (including Deborah Cox and Brandy).
While on hand, the latter – as seen in the photo above – reunited with Ralph and actor William Allen Young (who portrayed her parents on the hit 90’s sitcom ‘Moesha’). Having teased talks of a reboot of the UPN series over the past few years, B-Rocka went on record to say a revamp was finally in the works.

LaKeith Stanfield has just bagged another box office hit.
Hit the link to below to find out how the African-American actor has carved out another cinematic hit with the murder-mystery ‘Knives Out.’
Viewers apparently couldn’t get enough of the potent comedic combo of Jill Scott, Michelle Buteau, and Ryan Michelle Bathe as the trio of ladies led the BET+ remake of the classic 1996 revenge comedy ‘First Wives Club‘ (which originally starred Goldie Hawn, Bette Midler, and Diane Keaton).
After bringing some serious doses of funny for its inaugural season, the series – which famously sees ‘Girls Trip’ writer Tracy Oliver attached – has been renewed for a follow-up.
Details inside:
Gabrielle Union has been at the center of quite the firestorm following her axe from ‘America’s Got Talent.’
The actress’ departure from the hit series was initially spun as being “amicable,” yet it quickly became apparent that was far from the case. Especially when accusations of the racially coded variety were seeded by sources and confirmed as a concern by her husband Dwayne Wade.
Seemingly key to the fall-out was a complaint Union is said to have lodged with NBC higher- about an ill-conceived joke made by guest Jay Leno; one that the new mother offended the audience at the taping.
Per Union sources, nothing was done (despite alleged promises to the contrary), the said segment was simply left on the cutting room floor, and she was “coincidentally” let go upon the climax of the season. A reality, which if read a certain way, tells a story in and of itself.
With pressure mounting and Union receiving ample support from her peers and the public alike, NBC and AGT have issued another joint statement. One which suggests they may have pivoted on their initial, fairly-firm stance that touted the show’s “diversity” and “inclusivity.”
Their words below…
Dwyane Wade‘s made no secret of his support for son Zion, even making headlines earlier this year for accompanying the 12-year-old to Miami Pride Month.
Said stance was reinforced over the weekend when the former Miami Heat player took to Twitter (November 30) to speak out against the “hate” his family has been receiving in response to Thanksgiving photos his wife, Gabrielle Union, posted in celebration of the holiday (seen above). After the actress shared the pic, commenters began weighing in on Zion’s pose, crop top, and gem-encrusted fingernails.
By Saturday, the basketball superstar had enough. Look inside to see his classy clap back:
Although it’s been over a year since Lifetime first announced its intent to bring the life stories of Gospel royals The Clark Sisters to TV screens (as we reported here), Thanksgiving weekend saw patient fans finally get their first taste of what the women’s network cooked up.
Produced by Queen Latifah, Missy Elliott, and Mary J. Blige, the film tells the tale of how the Clarks – comprised of Dorinda, Jacky, Twinkie, Denise, and Karen – went from humble Detroit beginnings to breaking music barriers with over five decades of Gospel classics and crossover hits including the likes of ‘You Brought the Sunshine,’ ‘Name It, Claim It,’ and more.
Starring Aunjanue Ellis as their mother, Mattie, singer Christina Bell stars as Twinkie, Kierra Sheard as her mother, Karen, Sheléa Frazier as Dorinda, Raven Goodwin as Denise, and Angela Birchett as Jacky.
Set for a Spring 2020 premiere, look inside for the long-awaited trailer:
