‘No’ singer Meghan Trainor heard exactly that from fans of Drake and Beyonce as she was blocked from #1 on this week’s refreshed Billboard 200.

Originally believed to be the week’s top contender for the tally’s perch, as reported here, ‘Thank You’ – Trainor’s sophomore album – missed the top 2 due to equivalent album sales of 107,000 (nearly 90,000 less than her debut album).  Drizzy, on the other hand, holds tight to the top spot for yet another week after moving equivalent album units of 239,000 (83,000 actual sales) followed by Bey’s 128,000 (92,000 actual sales).

The reports following the highly reported axing of Tamar Braxton from FOX daytime tak show ‘The Real’ have gotten real ugly on social media.

After wielding an “official statement” on Sunday, the story was sent into overdrive after Braxton’s former assistant took to Twitter to pop all the way off on his take on “the real reason” the singer was let go.  Following his rant, her fans – affectionately christened #Tamartians – went on the attack by slamming her co-hosts Loni Love and Jeannie Mai.

To add to the fury, Love (who recently visited the ‘Wendy Williams Show’), was believed to have known about the ousting before Braxton did.  Well, the comedienne was not exactly in a laughing mood in response to the allegation and took to social media to offer her take on the ongoing drama.

Justin Timberlake‘s comeback hit, ‘Can’t Stop the Feeling,’ apparently couldn’t stop Drake from regaining the top spot after a brief dethronement.

As reported here, ‘Feeling,’ which debuted at #1 last week, came as JT’s first chart-topper in nearly a decade.  The reign, which removed Drizzy from the Hot 100’s perch, was short-lived as the rapper has not only regained ownership of the #1 position, but pushed Timberlake down to #3.
