Earlier this year Teairra Mari launched a bid to fight for the rights of revenge porn victims after an grossly vulgar image of her was posted on social media…without her consent.

Unfortunately, the attention garnered the image now means the star finds herself forced to face questions about in interviews lined up to promote the fourth season of the show she stars in… ‘Love & Hip Hop Hollywood.’

What happened when our friends ‘Team Curtains‘ were on hand to interview her alongside another other press? Chaos!

The internet is absolutely eating up Ciara’s yummy new release as it appears the Grammy winner has 1,2 stepped right onto a viral hit thanks to the J.R. Rotem-produced cut. ‘Level Up’ – the first lift from her yet-titled forthcoming septenary album – made its debut on 7/18 and in a matter of hours shot to #1 on Youtube’s viewership tallies before heading to a similar peak on iTunes’ R&B tallies.

The fire behind these launches to the top? The #LevelUpChallenge, a viral response that’s seeing her fans (old and new) offer their best renditions of the choreography found aboard the tune’s Parris Goebel-curated clip.

If his lengthy but damning Instagram post is anything to judge by, Floyd Mayweather’s proven his best blows aren’t limited to the ring! The boxing champ and his longtime nemesis, rapper 50 Cent (born Curtis Jackson), have done their fair share of verbal sparring over the years, with most of the attacks notoriously launched from 50’s side of the battlefield (“battlefield” = Twitter).
