The 2017 Primetime Emmy Awards air September 17th and will celebrate the titles and talents who’ve made the most marked impact.
As the top honor in television, all eyes are on which shows and stars have nabbed nominations.
Well, wonder no more. Because the full list of nominations for the main categories have been unveiled.
View below…
Shia LaBeouf has issued an apology after telling an African-American police officer that he was going to “hell” after he was arrested in Savanah.
I am deeply ashamed of my behavior and make no excuses for it. My outright disrespect for authority is problematic to say the least, and completely destructive to say the worst. It is a new low. A low I hope is a bottom.
I have been struggling with addiction publicly for too long, and I am actively taking steps toward securing my sobriety and hope I can be forgiven for my mistakes
However, not everyone is convinced he meant any harm when he told the officer he was heading to Hades.
He said the black cop was going to hell cause he working for the white cops who don’t give a fuck about black people. I see no issue https://t.co/Vk6fY0X749

This week, the beloved ‘Black Lives Matter’ activist Deray McKesson took to Twitter to reveal that he believed he had been slighted by the minds behind ‘Planet of the Apes.’
His tweets, which cited Hollywood’s undeniable efforts to endorse scientific racism as his cause for concern, saw him garner the support of those who felt he had been slighted by the movie.
Fortunately it wasn’t long before movie buffs took to social media to ease Deray’s fears by explaining that the character many believed had been based on his appearance was actually inspired by another set of characters in the franchise.
Where Whoopi Goldberg comes into play?
Hurt by her abrasiveness, Deray replied with…
.@WhoopiGoldberg, if you have something to say, I’m here.
— deray mckesson (@deray) July 12, 2017
After speaking with even more people about the history of the film, I deleted the tweets.

Things have now taken a turn for the worst. For, after teasing McKesson for not doing his research into the movie’s history before tweeting, social media has turned on Whoopi Goldberg for her supposed “eagerness” to tear him down.
Why? Her supposed habit of turning a blind-eye to veiled-racism in her industry.
Much as I love @WhoopiGoldberg she has had coon tendencies since forever. That was so out of line in my opinion. If he’s wrong, then educate
— ⚡Branden⚡ (@Beeyezzy) July 12, 2017
Whoopi Goldberg is a legend but she’s such a coon and it makes me sad.

Whoopie is problematic as fuck. She was cool with her boyfriend Ted Danson in black face.
— Brian (@buzzbear1971) July 12, 2017
@karenhunter I have tuned Whoopi Goldberg out ever since she had Ted Dansen dress up in black face
— ✊ WiseGuyEddie (@WiseGuyEddie) July 12, 2017
Whoopi Goldberg let Ted Danson tell nigger jokes while wearing black face so I’m not even checking for her feelings on deray. #next
— Cuntess Vaughn (@jerzeegurl77) July 12, 2017
Didn’t Whoopi Goldberg defend Ted Danson after that blackface incident?
— NOT Jae Crowder (@el_budget) July 12, 2017
you had a global moment to educate the ENTIRE world about subtle racism in entertainment @WhoopiGoldberg and you took the payoff instead smh pic.twitter.com/4kfOU0pIZ1
— Sensible Azealia USA (@AzealiaRebelius) July 13, 2017
i think whoopi has something personal against you just by the way she reacted. u know she had to show out for white mommy and daddy smh
— curtis malone (@akronbred) July 12, 2017
Her unusual story colors her perception about the plight of racism. She seems to take the position good fortune gave her & hers for granted

“You’re ignoring the history of the Planet of the Apes movies!!”

Agreed. Correct him & debate in private. I hate when two intelligent, influential members of the community dispute minor issues in public

She’s also cool with cultural appropriation.

Well damn!
That’s basically all we could say once we copped a gander at Ebony’s latest issue, featuring the ever-so sexy cast of OWN’s breakout hit, ‘Queen Sugar.’
Dominating TV ratings with their second season, the ‘Bordelons’ – “Ralph Angel” (Kofi Siriboe), “Charley” (Dawn-Lyen Gardner) and “Nova” (Rutina Wesley) – have turned Wednesday nights on its head with their OMG-worthy dramas, family feuds, address of social issues, and so much more.
Now, to build even more awareness, the show’s cast are showcasing their fiercest poses for the good folks at ‘Ebony.’ See the pics below:
Make sure you pick up the issue when it hits stands later this month.
For as much mileage as the “Real Housewives” franchise still has, it’s often a struggle for newer branches to successfully bloom.
However, for ‘The Real Housewives Of Potomac’ it’s proving a task they’re up to.
A ratings success, the Bravo show has proven increasingly popular during its second season.
Paired for much of its run with the ‘Atlanta’ arm, the series has maintained over 1 million viewers – even after the Spring climax of its older sister.
This Sunday sees the final part of the season 2 reunion special air, with the ladies addressing a number of pertinent issues.
Per the sneak peeks below, Robyn‘s odd relationship with Juan is dissected the more, as are the marriages of Karen, Ashley, and Charisse. What’s more, with newcomer Monique reading Gizelle (for filth) in part one, it’s anyone’s guess what firework’s she’ll be setting off for the closing instalment.
Peep the previews…
The world of film awaits the February 16th arrival of Marvel’s ‘Black Panther.’
Directed by Ryan Coogler, the movie’s all-star cast is led by Chadwick Boseman in the main role [T’Challa], and also features Lupita Nyong’o [Nakia], Michael B. Jordan [Kilmonger], Forrest Whittaker [Zuri], Daniel Kaluya [W’Kabi], and Angela Bassett [Ramonda].
Following the debut of the much discussed trailer, Entertainment Weekly have provided a closer look at the action in their special Comic-Con issue.
Expanding on the plot, EW wrote:
“T’Challa’s homeland is the site of massive natural deposits of Vibranium, the near-mystical metal that comprises Captain America’s shield, is woven into his Black Panther, and has allowed the people of Wakanda to make technological leaps nearly a century ahead of the rest of the world. But as T’Challa learns upon ascending the throne, the minute others know you have something valuable, someone will try to take it from you. In self-defense, Wakanda has closed itself off from the other nations of Earth, maintaining a false front that it’s a mere third-world nowhere – full of mines, farms, and jungle creatures. The truth is, its mines produce the rarest, most precious metal on earth, its fields grows the Heart-Shaped Herb, a Vibranium-enriched plant that grants its leaders superhuman strength, and its jungle creatures provide inspiration for one of the sleekest superheroes to ever leap from the page to the screen.”
Peep pics from the highly anticipated action-flick below…
Yes, yes, and yes! This looks stellar! We all sorts of ready. Roll on February!
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.
She mad https://t.co/1NhummZRZu

Milan’s allegations come after he faced a scandal of his own.
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.
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…”
Peep another shot from the feature, which was snapped in Thailand where the actor is training for a kickboxing competition, below…
Check out a behind the scenes from the shoot
Also, peep the trailer for for ‘The Dark Tower’
Blac Chyna is tired of men exposing the nude images she sends to them.
How she plans to prevent her part-time lover Rarri True from uploading snaps of her nook, cranny and fanny online?
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.
