As any Drake fan and critic will attest, the Canadian rapper is a seasoned wordsmith.

He’s also a man of his word.

For, after breaking the internet with a blazing (and scathing) roast of rival Meek Mill, the MC flexed his funny-bone by adhering to a lyric from this morning’s ‘Back To Back’ clap-back.

See what we mean below…

If recent reports are anything to go by, it appears Terrence Howard‘s portrayal of ‘Empire’s cut-throat dad Lucious Lyons isn’t too far from real life.

For, in an explosive accusation lifted via lawsuit courtesy of his ex-wife Michelle Ghent, Howard kicked, choked, dragged, and threatened to kill his former spouse during an altercation two years ago.

This, according to Ghent, came on the heels of years of emotional distress, defamation, physical abuse, and other implied threats.  Details below:

Despite issuing 3 decades worth of religious imagery often deemed offensive, Queen of Pop Madonna is on the receiving end of yet another royal backlash after teaser videos from her forthcoming ‘Rebel Heart’ tour feature a fresh assault on Catholicism.

Indeed, in drumming up buzz for her delayed world outing – kicking off in 6 weeks – the diva lent a behind-the-scenes peek at what fans should expect from the highly anticipated show.  What they may have not been anticipating, however, was a peek at some pole-dancing nuns.

Causing quite the commotion, the view caught the attention of CBS’s ‘The Talk’ panel who, in turn, dealt the diva a fiery tongue lashing.

See the clip below and tell us:  are they overreacting?

It’s been nearly 7 years since powerhouse songstress Christina Aguilera struck out on a world tour.  Despite murmurs and mentions of worldwide treks to support her two latest projects ‘Bionic’ (2010) and ‘Lotus’ (2012), the pop diva has always cited other ventures (i.e. movies, motherhood, ‘The Voice’) as reasons why she hasn’t hit the road.

Apparently, fans have heard enough – especially since she left this year’s ‘Cisco Rocks’ concert in ashes after delivering a scorching hourlong performance of some of her top hits.  Sending supporters into a frenzy, the #Fighters collectively set Twitter alight to motion for a new tour from the Grammy winner to coincide with her next release.

She’s still got it…and “it” in abundance.  The question now becomes:  will she answer her fans’ call?
