With news of Braxton’s alleged suicide attempt sending shockwaves through the media sphere, the cable network has released a statement:

Full story below…
Nick Cannon is firing back after being axed by ViacomCBS over controversial comments about race.
As reported, the media mogul came under heavy scrutiny for utterances made on his podcast Cannon Class.
He was seen describing white people as as “a little less,” “closer to animals,” “the true savages,” “acting out of a deficiency so the only way they can act is evil.”
The move saw ViacomCBS sever ties with him – seemingly taking his MTV series ‘Wild N’ Out’ with them.
Now, in a lengthy open letter, Cannon says:
“I demand full ownership of my billion dollar “Wild ‘N Out” brand that I created, and they will continue to misuse and destroy without my leadership! I demand that the hate and back door bullying cease and while we are at it, now that the truth is out, I demand the Apology!”

UK singer Misha B made headlines last night when she opened up about the racial bias she says she experienced during her tenure on The X Factor.
The Manchester born songbird was a hot favourite to win the then-popular show, however she saw her wings clipped after being branded a “bully” and other terms historically and unfairly attached to Black women.
In an hour-long Instagram video, she unpacked the various racial stereotypes employed to dim her star – both in front and behind the glare of the cameras.
An experience she says left her feeling suicidal and with PTSD that she still battles with today.
Many were shocked, but someone who won’t be surprised is British Pop royal Gary Barlow – who served as a judge on the 2011 series.

In his recent memoir ‘A Better Me,’ Barlow opened up about the culture behind the scenes of the show – specifically recounting “bully-gate” and how it came to be.
