Megan Thee Stallion aka the ‘H-Town Hottie’ landed in hot water recently when investigative Twitter users exposed resurfaced tweets of hers from 2012 that featured homophobic content.

Granted, the rapstress was only teenager at the time of the initial posting, but that did not stop some commenters from slamming her for using derogatory language including the slur “f*ggot.’

Fed up with the ongoing chatter, Meg took to Twitter today to clap back at detractors for bringing up the nearly 7-year-old infraction.  See what she said inside:

One-time BET Awards darling Nicki Minaj turned from friend to foe of the network after a disagreement related to an intern’s tweet about Cardi B‘s historic Grammy win at this year’s telecast (click here to read).

Opting to remove herself and Young Money team as performers from this year’s BET Experience roster as a result – which was headlined by Cardi – Minaj also was a no-show to the June 23rd awards ceremony despite being nominated.  As we reported here, this year’s showing may have featured show-stopping performances from the likes of Cardi, Offset, H.E.R., Mary J. Blige. And the ratings reflected – with the show pulling in over 12 million in combined viewership (having aired across 8 Viacom networks, including MTV and VH1).

The Harajuku Barbie sees things differently, though. And seems to be focussing on the number of folk who tuned in to the broadcast on BET specifically.  Read her fiery weigh in below:

When ‘Love & Hip-Hop’ took home the Reality Royalty honor at the 2019 MTV Movie & TV Awards, the shade was thick. Not so much from viewers at home, but more so from the rival shows in the audience.

That Grape Juice caught up with the TV veteran at the 2019 ASCAP Rhythm & Soul Awards, where she spilled on why she wasn’t here for the jabs.

As rumors of a romance between herself and ‘Senorita’ co-star Shawn Mendes heat up, Camila Cabello made headlines yesterday (June 25) for a breakup with her British boyfriend Matthew Hussey.  Hussey, a famed dating coach, is said to have dated the former Fifth Harmony hitmaker (10 years his junior) for a year before recently calling it quits.

While reports of the split rocked headlines, fans of the songstress – affectionately called #Camilizers – have taken to the net to slam the 32-year-old and even made threats. The hoop-la got so out of control Cabello took to her own social media handles to scold the group.

‘I Feel For You’ hitmaker Chaka Khan didn’t hide her feelings when she took to Andy Cohen‘s ‘Watch What Happens Live’ recently to discuss her feelings on Whitney Houston, Prince, Aretha Franklin, and Kanye West‘s famed sample of her hit song, 1984’s ‘Through the Fire.’

The 66-year-old R&B legend, on hand to promote her new wig collection and burgeoning music projects, was quizzed on her legendary career and thoughts on contemporaries.  Along the way she dropped a surprising bombshell that she’d collaborated with Pop “it girl” Ariana Grande for the soundtrack of a forthcoming film (presumed to be the new ‘Charlie’s Angels’ soundtrack).  However, when asked about her opinion of West’s 2004 hit ‘Through the Wire’ (which samples her song ‘Through the Fire’), Khan’s response was fiery to say the least.
