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

Sevyn Streeter is celebrating the long-awaited release of her debut album ‘Girl Disrupted.’

Hatched this week, the set has been earning rave reviews from her loyal fanbase who’ve been salivating for the LP for almost 4 years.

‘Anything U Want’ has emerged as a favorite, so the arrival of its accompanying video is oh so apt.

Ty Dolla $ign, Wiz Khalifa and Jeremih join the starlet in the ALFY directed video, which also features appearances from the Serayah and Eric Bellinger.

Speaking on the concept, Sevyn told BB:

“It only seemed right for the video to feel [like a party]. I never went to college — unfortunately — so I lived out a little piece of my dream in this video. I threw a frat party, took a few shots and invited the three coolest dudes I know, LOL: Wiz Khalifa, Jeremih & Ty Dolla $ign. We had a blast on set and I love how it all came together.”

Solid.

This has potential if pushed.

Drama has found its way to Mary J. Blige‘s front door!

As she seeks to protect her money from her soon-to-be ex-husband Kendu Isaacs the entertainer has discovered that Signature Bank has re-opened a $1.9 million case against her.

What went down?

She and Kendu took out a $2 million loan from the bank and agreed to repay it via monthly $20,000 payments. Alas, the bank claims that Blige hasn’t paid them in months prompting them to reopen their case against her.

She’s yet to respond to the unfortunate development.

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.

Britney Spears has hit many a major stage in her time, but according to sources she has her heart set on the Super Bowl 2018.

Having expressed said desires to her team, advocates for the 35-year-old are said to have been in “secret” discussions with organizers of next year’s Halftime Show – which takes place in Minneapolis on February 4th. 

The apparent thinking from Britney and her team is that she has the catalogue and the name brand, so it’ll be an attractive prospect for both viewers and advertisers. There’s reportedly talk of pairing Spears with other acts to fill the 12 minute spot.

If indeed a “go,” it’d technically be the singer’s 2nd Halftime appearance; she previously performed as a guest alongside Aerosmith and Nsync. [Source]

***************

No. Just no.

And we say that as appreciators of Britney’s legacy. Because should she do it, she’s liable to make a permanent blotch on her legacy that can’t be removed nor glossed over.

No matter which way it’s diced or sliced, she is a shadow of a shadow of a shadow of the performer she once was. Something everyone would become privy to seeing should she be carted out to “perform.”

Even pairing her with other acts runs risk of highlighting her diminished abilities.

So, again, issa no from us.

Perhaps, in light of her love for live singing, she could kick off festivities with the US Nation Anthem?

Keyshia Cole is gearing up for a starring role on VH1’s ‘Love & Hip-Hop: Hollywood,’ but it looks like the drama is starting early for the R&B belle.

According to court documents, the singer has been served with a lawsuit by  Sabrina Mercadel – a woman who claims the star put them paws on her. She is seeking $4 million in compensation for her injuries.

As for the catalyst for the alleged incident, it’s Cole’s ex Birdman.

The pair are believed to have dated back in 2014. Yet, that all came to a head when Cole arrived at this Los Angeles penthouse only to find Mercadel there.

She is said to have flown into a jealous rage and laid the literal smackdown on her love rival.
Explaining the total tallied, Mercadel listed the following:

$1.5 mil, pain and suffering
$500k, emotional distress
 $2 mil, loss of use of body part
 $200k, future medical expenses
 $50k, loss of earnings
 $300k, future loss of earnings

Interestingly, Mercadel (who says she only had a “platonic” relationship with Birdman) was initially suing his building (for what reason who knows). However, she was since dropped that suit and is making a beeline for Keish.

A mucky mess.
