The law!
Rarri posted a semi-naked image of he and the celebrity following her blow-up with Rob Kardashian prompting Chyna to strike him with a letter she hopes will scare him off.
Her efforts are backed by California’s revenge porn laws put in protect people like Chyna whose naked images who have been posted online without their permission.
For spectators of the ‘Black Lives Matter‘ spokesman DeRay McKesson the blue vest he often sports has now become just as recognisable as the intense debates he engages in to combat systemic racism.

Blac Chyna has landed the upper hand in her game of one-upmanship with former boo Rob Kardashian.
As widely reported, the exes became embroiled in a shocking social media exchange last week which saw Rob expose intimate images of the socialite.
Allegedly fearing for her safety, Chyna lawyered up and went to court today to secure a restraining order against Rob as well as an injunction to prevent him releasing what team calls “revenge porn.”
Said requests were granted moments ago and the reality star took to the steps of the courthouse with her attorney to express her gratitude to the judge. Check it out:
The spectacle surrounding all of this defines disgusting. But it’s hardly surprising given the parties involved.
Our thoughts are with their daughter Dream, who is ultimately the only innocent party in the narrative.
Blac Chyna‘s war with the Kardashians is to make its way to ABC today.
There, joined by her lawyer Lisa Bloom, the supposed scammer will bare all on her relationship with Rob Kardashian, her alleged infidelities, how she feels about his decision to expose her nude images and claims that she is a terribly unfit mother.
Her interview will air on ‘Good Morning America‘ as she battles claims that she and the man she is said to have cheated on Rob with are high-priced escorts distributing their cakes and cookies in Hollywood.
Why Blac Chyna worried about her nudes being exposed? She's a stripper/escort
Lauded for his performance in BET’s delivery of the New Edition story, the actor now finds himself standing as one of Hollywood’s more sought-after fresh faces thanks to numbers pulled in by his swelling fan base.
This month, before he rocks theatres by way of ‘Maximum Impact’, the African-American star has been cheered by execs at Awesomeness Films for the part he played in placing $14 million in their pockets.
Powers portrays Patrick in the big screen adaptation of Lauren Oliver’s ‘Before I Fall’ and signed on to do so even after learning it was to be armed with a modest budget of $5 million.
This month, thanks to positive word-of-mouth reviews, a leading performance by Zoey Deutch and Power’s bourgeoning box office pull, the movie has generated $14,100,000 worldwide.

Social media is becoming like the WWE Royal Rumble these days. Case in point the ‘Love & Hip-Hop: Instagram’ exchange between Joseline Hernandez and K. Michelle.
As reported, the reality stars and former friends have been trading insults over an issue that ironically wasn’t with one another. [Hernandez has beef with TV exec Mona Scott Young.]
However, that hasn’t stopped the pair from going “there” and beyond. From children to drug use, the draggings have left no stone unturned. And it’s still going on.
Picking up where K left off, Hernandez hit back with…
FOX is reportedly mulling a major merger for its flagship music dramas this Fall.
According to TV Line, the network plans a unique crossover between ‘Empire’ and ‘Star’ – two productions spearheaded by Lee Daniels.
The pairing would be a one-off premiere event on September 27th – which is when both titles return for their fourth and second seasons respectively.
Beyond being plausible from a storyline perspective, it’ll also be a smart synchronization for the shows which will be airing alongside each other on Wednesday nights.
FOX are remaining mum on the matter, but word on the curb is that folk can definitely expect to see mixing, meshing, and messing between Cookie, Carlotta, and co.

This sounds like a cool concept.
For us, ‘Empire’ has yet to recapture the magic of its first season and in many ways has become a victim of its own enormity. At least from a quality standpoint. While ‘Star’ is still finding its footing.
As such, this has the potential to shake things up in a mutually beneficial way.
“Nelsan has passed away after complications with heart failure. He was a great talent, and his words and presence will be forever missed.”
Popular with fans and producers, his take on the character was actually adapted for a permanent run as he was originally killed-off early in the book series.
Speaking on Ellis’ passing, HBO said:
“We were extremely saddened to hear of the passing of Nelsan Ellis. [He] was a long-time member of the HBO family whose groundbreaking portrayal of Lafayette will be remembered fondly within the overall legacy of True Blood. Nelsan will be dearly missed by his fans and all of us at HBO.”
‘True Blood’ creator Alan Ball added:
“Nelsan was a singular talent whose creativity never ceased to amaze me. Working with him was a privilege.”
Ellis, who attended Oxford University and graduated from Juilliard, also appeared in ‘Elementary’ and James Brown biopic ‘Get On Up.’
Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family. May he rest in peace.
Welcome to another edition of Retro Rewind, the TGJ original feature carved out to take you on a journey into entertainment’s past.
Today, seventeen years after it went down live, we revisit the moment in which a then 19-year-old Beyonce clashes with the then radio host Wendy Williams during an unforgettable interview.
Facing daggers, knives and drama following LeToya and LaTavia and Farrah’s involuntary departure from Destiny‘s Child, Beyonce and her group members made their way to radio with hopes of pushing their latest material and putting their fans’ minds at ease.
Tennis legend Venus Williams has scored a major win in the legal battle against the family of Jerome Barson.
The elderly man lost his life on June 9th after a collision of cars set off a ripple effect, something his relatives are blaming on Williams in their civil lawsuit.
However, police are now saying the 37-year-old drove lawfully. ESPN reports:
Williams legally entered an intersection but was cut off by another car, setting off a chain of events that seconds later resulted in a fatal crash with a third car, police say a video released Friday shows.
The video, taken by a security camera, shows Williams heading north as she stops her 2010 Toyota Sequoia SUV at a stoplight behind a white car as she exits her Palm Beach Gardens neighborhood shortly after 1 p.m. on June 9.
When the light turns green, the white car turns left onto a six-lane, heavily traveled boulevard, but Williams heads straight. A dark-colored sedan traveling south turns left in front of her, causing her to stop.
Palm Beach Gardens police said in a statement Friday that Barson’s light had turned green just before Williams moved in front of her. Barson’s 78-year-old husband, Jerome Barson, died June 22 from injuries suffered in the crash.
Williams, who was not hurt, has not been cited or charged. Police spokesman Maj. Paul Rogers said Friday the video has caused investigators to re-evaluate their original conclusion that Williams was at fault.
Though the investigation is on-going, it’s a significant development in favor of Williams, who broke down in tears over the situation at a Wimbledon press conference this week.
Breaking her silence on the matter just days before, Williams said:
These days beef is cooked and served on social media.
Such was the case for the sudden feud between former ‘Love & Hip-Hop Atlanta’ cast-mates K. Michelle and Joseline Hernandez.
Despite being pally on the hit VH1 show, the pair have fallen out – over producer Mona Scott-Young.
This week on IG, K shared a lengthy message of appreciation for the TV maestra – who was with her at the time – for helping turn her life around.
The camaraderie spilled over to IG Live, where K and reality star Shekinah playfully confirmed that Mona does indeed pay up. A jab Joseline interpreted as being about her issue with the exec over money.
Rob Kardashian, already facing the threat of jail time for violating California’s ‘revenge porn’ law after leaking nudes of his ex Blac Chyna, has now been dealt another legal blow after reports surfaced the model/actress is seeking a restraining order against him.
As has been captivating headlines for most of the week, Rob went on a social media tirade once he learned Chyna was cheating him. Berating her and even sharing explicit photos of her on the web, the youngest of the Kardashian clan’s lengthy slam of his baby mama was so harsh his Instagram handle was removed (click here to read more on that).
In response to the hoopla, Chyna’s opted to keep her silence and let her lawyers do the talking on her behalf. Pressing the courts to deliver a restraining order against Kardashian, Chyna alleges he has verbally and physically abused her in the past.
“Her declaration was part of a domestic violence restraining order petition filed by her new high-powered lawyer Lisa Bloom ahead of a court hearing Monday.
In the paperwork…, Chyna said Rob turned physically abusive on April 17 when she asked him to stop trash-talking her in front of her 4-year-old son, King Stevenson.
‘Rob has been violent with me in the past and I am afraid to be around him,” Chyna said in her statement.'”
Chyna goes on to declare she never gave Rob permission to share those nude photos of her.
“Rob publicly shamed me by posting a picture of me during labor of our daughter Dream… “This is a HIPAA violation and a violation of my privacy rights under the California Constitution.”
As those familiar with California’s ‘revenge porn’ law know, the legal penalties of the infraction could not only lead to years in jail for the TV star, but also cause him to lose full custody of his daughter.
