Jharrel Jerome‘s won an Emmy for “Outstanding Lead Actor in a Limited Series or Movie” for his portrayal of Korey Wise in the Ava Duvernay-directed Netflix mini-series ‘When They See Us.’

Based on the real life events surrounding the 1988 Central park jogger case that saw five men of color falsely prosecuted for charges related to sexual assault, Jerome’s performance in the four part streaming event was lauded by critics and viewers alike.

Now, the Emmy academy have echoed those sentiments.

Besting fellow nominees Mahershala Ali (True Detective), Benicio Del Toro (Escape at Dannemora), Hugh Grant (A Very English Scandal), Jared Harris (Chernobyl), Sam Rockwell (Fosse/Verdon) on Sunday’s awards show (September 22), Jerome – at just 21-years-old – becomes the youngest Black actor in the ceremony’s history to nab the trophy.

Little does she know that her souvenir and the power it will come to possess which change her life…forever.

Jennifer Lopez may be earning Oscar buzz for her critically acclaimed performance in the new box office hit, ‘Hustlers,’ but there’s at least one person she shouldn’t expect a standing ovation from:  Samantha Barbash, the woman who Lopez’s character in the stripper film is allegedly based on.

Taking to multiple media outlets including TMZ, Access Hollywood, and more, Barbash branded the film ‘unimpressive’ and slammed it for ‘lacking a story line.’  As if that’s not enough, she claims the creators stole her life story even after she refused to accept their ‘unacceptable offer’ to sign away rights for the use of her likeness.

Now, with attorney Bruno Gioffre in pocket, Samantha’s readying a six-to-seven figure defamation lawsuit against the people behind the movie (STX Films, director Lorene Scafaria, and possibly Lopez) for what she deems an incorrect and inappropriate portrayal of her life as an exotic dancer.

As we reported here, Braxton – when quizzed on if she had a desire to return to the FOX talk show panel – emphatically declined, citing the ladies’ ‘cattiness’ as the main deterrent.  Once word reached the desk of ‘The Real’ they addressed the matter on their show and even extended an offer for the ‘Love & War’ singer to continue a discussion about their differences there.

Her response to the invitation?  Taking to Instagram with screenshots to provide “proof” it was hostess Loni Love who got her fired from the Emmy-winning talk show years ago.  Love didn’t take the accusation lightly.  Look inside to see how the comic’s clap back started an all night war:
