Having conquered TV and Web with their respective solo ventures over the last few years, mother-daughter duo Toya Johnson-Rushing and Reginae Carter are tag-teaming to repeat the feat together courtesy of a new WE tv reality show.

Titled ‘Toya & Reginae,’ the six-episode series is set to give viewers a deeper look into the personal and professional endeavors of Johnson-Rushing and Carter as they balance their relationship with each other with the other demands of their busy lives (see: love, the pursuit of business ventures, and more).

“On each episode of Toya & Reginae, fans will get to peek behind the curtain and see who they truly are – what’s happening in their love lives, how they balance those relationships along with their exciting and demanding careers, and of course their relationship with each other,” the official plot description says. “As happy as they appear on social media, in reality, their lives are unpredictable and full of chaos as they navigate their complex family dynamic.”

‘Turning Point’ hitmaker Mario has reached just that in his 21-year career thanks to a new record deal between his imprint, New Citizen, and Epic Records.

Having spent most of the last decade distributing his music independently, the move to Epic marks an epic milestone for the 36-year-old as it’s not only his return to the Sony Music umbrella but also his first major-label deal since 2013.

Promising to use the new partnership to “bring R&B back” (as revealed in a statement announcing the venture), the first fruit of the union comes courtesy of a revamp of his 2022-released single ‘Main One‘ (which originally featured embattled emcee Tory Lanez).

“I know you wanna be the main one / I got a whole list of names on the way / I ain’t f-ckin’ with the same one / Ooh, I love when you drop it down low / But you’re still high maintenance,” he croons on the cut that now features Hip-Hop superstars Tyga and Lil Wayne.

Carlee Russell has confessed that the kidnapping that had many across the world praying for her safe return was…a hoax.

As reported, the Hoover, Alabama native disappeared on the night of July 13 after calling the police and claiming that she witnessed an abandoned toddler wandering alone on the interstate.

Responding officers found Russell’s wig and phone, igniting a mass search for the seemingly “missing” victim – as well as the child she alleged to have seen.

The first dramatic turn occurred when the 25-year-old returned to her parent’s home on July 15 and the second when Hoover Police gave a press conference that appeared to cast a huge cloud of doubt over the feasibility of her story.
