The Lion King roars back onto the big screen this December with a brand new story to tell.

‘Mufasa: The Lion King’ shines light on the story of Mufasa and serves as a prequel to the events that unfolded in the classic 1994 film and the sequels that followed.

A live-action blockbuster, the Disney-powered production follows the 2019 revival of ‘The Lion King’ and is directed by Academy Award winner Barry Jenkins.

Aaron Pierre leads in the titular role of Mufasa and will star alongside Kelvin Harrison Jr (who features as Taka). Beyonce reprises her role as Nala, while her daughter Blue Ivy Carter will star as Kiara. Donald Glover is also back in the mix as Simba.

‘Mufasa: The Lion King’ hits theaters worldwide on December 20.

Reignited interest in one of Pop music history’s most disgraced acts – Milli Vanilli (comprised of Fabrice Morvan and Rob Pilatus) – hit a feverish pitch after Paramount+ unveiled a jaw-dropping, tell-all documentary film about the German-French duo last year .

Now chronicling their meteoric rise to fame (and just as accelerated downfall) in a dramatized format, the streaming network has lifted the lid on the 80’s hitmakers’ highly anticipated biopic ‘Girl You Know It’s True.’

Named after their 1989 chart-topping debut album which went on to sell over 6 million copies in the United States alone, the new film stars Tijan Njie (Pilatus) and Elan Ben Ali (Morvan) as well as familiar faces like Matthias Schweighöfer, Graham Rogers, and Bella Dayne.

Premiered Friday (August 9), look inside for a preview of the Simon Verhoeven-directed flick before heading to Paramount+ to stream it in full.

After netting three Hot 100 top 40 hits over the span of nearly three months, GloRilla has proven herself to be a bona fide hitmaker.

Now, as her latest song – ‘All Dere‘ – continues to gain steam on music streaming outlets, the GRAMMY nominee is looking to keep her hot streak going by playing assistant to Real Boston Richey‘s newest release ‘Get In There.’

In late July, musician Javaughn Young-White – the father of Kehlani‘s daughter Adeya – rocked the Web when he filed for full custody of their child with shocking claims the singer was endangering the young girl’s safety due to her involvement in a cult.

Quickly taking to social media to deny the allegations, the GRAMMY-nominated star branded Young-White’s allegations “incredibly hurtful, inaccurate, inappropriate, and simply untrue.”

And while he followed by slamming the news media for sensationalizing aspects of the wording of his original filing (with some outlets even suggesting he meant “sex cult” instead of “religious cult”), the guitarist took to social media on Friday (August 9) to strum up another statement regarding the hoopla caused by the story.

Yung Miami has the internet talking with the return of her award-winning podcast, Caresha Please.

And for understandable reason, as she seized the show’s season 2 debut to dish on Diddy, falling out with JT, and the future (or lack thereof) of the City Girls.

Interestingly, during the chat – which saw Saucy Santana throw questions at her – Yung Miami intimated that she had been encountering issues releasing solo music due to internal issues with her team.

Still, that didn’t stop the star from closing out the episode with a tease of a track called ‘Fa Da Booty.’
