‘Work’ duo Rihanna and Drake have put in some major work in 2016 to overcome the historic chart records of King of Pop Michael Jackson.

Once thought insurmountable, the rumored on again/off again couple – through their respective projects ‘Anti’ and ‘Views’ – are jointly leaving the pop icon’s Billboard stats in their review.

Indeed, after Rih surpassed the singer’s historic 13 #1’s on the Billboard Hot 100 with her last run atop the tally, now Drizzy – with his monster hit ‘One Dance’ (7 consecutive weeks at #1, 8 overall) – is one week shy of laying claim to one of Jackson’s most unimaginable records.

Well, if there’s one person Grammy-nominated rapstress Iggy Azalea doesn’t have to worry about being on her “team” it would be Keonna Green.

Green, Nick Young‘s ex (who is 4 months pregnant with the Lakers’ star’s second child), took to US Weekly to dish on the drama surrounding the former engaged couple including her attempts to reach out to Azalea (which, according to her, failed).

She also highlights the rekindling of her romance with Young while showing approximately 0% remorse for being one of many causes for the couple’s demise.

Jennifer Lopez, Mary J. Blige,  Britney Spears, MNEK and Pink and a number of other high profile Pop purveyors have joined forces to record an original song to honour the lives of those slain in Orlando, Florida recently.

The name of the moving Justin Tranter-penned single? ‘Hands.’

He shared:

Like the rest of the world I woke up to the news that morning and was horrified and sad and scared,” says Tranter. “We assigned everybody what we thought would be the best part for their voice and we asked them all to sing an additional part, just in case. But everybody got it done in time so we ended up with extra vocals. In Los Angeles “Interscope let us use their studio,” he notes. “Mary J. Blige recorded in New Orleans. Britney Spears in Thousand Oaks, I think. Pink in Santa Barbara. MNEK recorded at home in London. Selena recorded in her studio bus. Dan Reynolds recorded in his home. Adam Lambert was in Luxembourg. Ty Herndon the country star was in Spain. Kacey Musgraves, Nashville. Everyone just got it done.

It seems for every nod actor/activist Jesse Williams got for his impassioned plea for racial equality at this year’s BET Awards there is a detractor who didn’t exactly fancy his fiery words.

From FOX analysts to ‘Clueless’ star Stacey Dash (read more on that here), Williams’ words ignited a surprising firestorm of debate amongst viewers – some of whom have slammed the ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ star for ‘spewing blatant racism.’

Banding together, the actor’s critics started a Change.org petition to see him booted from the prized ABC series (as of time reported the petition has collected over 15,000 signatures).  Tuck in below to see Shonda Rhimes’ – the series creator – and Williams response to the hoopla:
