Rarri True, the young man who has risen to fame as the man at the heart of Blac Chyna and Rob Kardashian‘s break-up, has rubbished cruel claims that he sleeps with men for pesos, pounds and pennies.

How said rumour surfaced? By way of the deeply troubled make-up guru Star Milan who took to Twitter to claim his pals had paid for Rarri’s services.

His baseless allegations have since been rubbished by several people associated with Rarri and Rarri himself.

Milan’s allegations come after he faced a scandal of his own.

Your thoughts?

Jeremy Meeks, the man who rose to fame when his mug shot surfaced online, has found a friend and lover in Top Shop heiress Chloe Green.

Sounds like good news? Well…tell that to his wife who has revealed that the pair are to separate after she spotted images of Meeks and Green locking lips and bumping hips on a yacth weeks ago.

She told ‘The Daily Mail’…

He kept saying, ‘I’m sorry, you didn’t deserve this’. We talked about divorce. I told him I didn’t think the marriage could be saved. He agreed. The marriage is over.

Meeks, who appears in the snap above with Green and a friend, has now filed for legal separation as he prepares to spend the rest of the year pursuing a career as a high-fashion model.

Guy Ritchie and Will Smith‘s live action adaptation of Disney’s ‘Aladdin’ has hit a snag.

What it is?

They can’t find Aladdin.

Smith signed on to portray Genie as Ritchie, who was married to Madonna and is a distant relative of Kate Upton, searches tirelessly for a man of Middle Eastern or Indian descent to take on its leading role.

His search has been a difficult one as they’re yet to find an actor in his 20s matches the character’s description who can act just as well as he can sing.

Problematic, as this he has been forced to hold off on pressing play on the movie’s production (set to kick off in July) because he’s still yet to find his leading man.

‘The Hollywood Reporter’ adds:

Sources say there have been several rounds of tests in London, with the actors coming in for up to two weeks at a time. “The test process was a mess,” says one agent with a client who tested.

While the studio had interest in Dev Patel, 27, and Riz Ahmed, 34, the male lead will likely be a newcomer. Sources say the studio is eyeing Power Rangers actress Naomi Scott, 24, or Indian actress Tara Sutaria, 21, to play Jasmine, but can’t lock the deal until the male lead has been selected since chemistry is so important to the story.

Disney not being able to find someone who can play Aladdin just goes to show how much the industry lacks in diversity

Michael Jackson‘s posthumous career is proving quite the ‘Thriller.’

As reported, the King Of Pop’s Estate have engineered an array of lucrative deals that have seen MJ become a billion dollar business. Literally.

And the creation of new monetization models continues.

The latest is an animated cartoon named ‘Michael Jackson’s Halloween.’

Additional details are under wraps, however – per the Estate’s announcement – the project will be premiering this Fall on CBS. The following image was released in conjunction with the news:

On the one hand, we’re kinda tired of waiting through these endless “other” ventures when all we want is to hear is new music. And by “new” we don’t mean ‘Off The Wall’ cast-offs. But actual material from the latter years of his life.

That said, as lovers of his legacy, moves like this ensure “Michael Jackson” will continue to mean something to generations to come.

Cop a gander of Idris Elba!

The Hollywood heartthrob lives up to his billing in the latest issue of ESSENCE magazine.

Ever busy, 44-year-old is gearing up for the release of his new movie ‘The Dark Tower’ as well as the next season of ‘Luther’ together with his role of father to a toddler and a teen.

Speaking to the publication about his multitude of commitments, Elba said:

“Because I’m 44 years old with a two-and-a-half-year-old boy, I’m rolling around playing and then I’m at a Drake concert with my teenage daughter. Having a young child now keeps me young, without a doubt…”

Blac Chyna is tired of men exposing the nude images she sends to them.

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.

What any of this has to do with the new ‘Planet of the Apes’ movie?

Following the release of its trailer and poster, eagle-eyed viewers from around the world claim to have spotted something unsettling.

Citing Hollywood’s worrying habit of comparing black men to monkeys (click here) as their grounds for concern, said eagle-eyed fans have now taken to social media to demand an explanation from the movie’s producers.

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.

Your thoughts?

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

Keith Powers‘ star is on the rise.

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.

Here’s a picture of Keith Powers and Elena Kampouris on set! #BIFMovie pic.twitter.com/0s2oUK7DbX

— Before I Fall Movie (@BIFMovie) July 20, 2016

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.

Keith Powers & Kian Lawley in before I fall ?

Why do you think Powers is so popular?

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…

You do the math hoe!!!! Tour now!! Cause your future ain’t promise ????????????? #boribori #joselinehernandez #griseldablanco #spanishrocksta #puertoricanprincess IM GOING TO MAKE YOU HOES EAT AND CHOKE IN YOUR OWN WORDS

Sigh.

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.

Would you watch?
