The ‘Real Housewives of Potomac’ returned for season 9 on Bravo last night (October 6).

However, one name that was not in the mix was Robyn Dixon. 

For eight years, she served as an original cast member of the hit series. However, the reality star was candid in revealing that she was “fired” following the wrapping of season 8 in April. At the time, she insisted she would rather be frank about the matter than spin it as a decision she made.

Instead of skewing bitter about her ousting, Dixon has taken a different approach.

DDG took another dig at Joe Budden on a special Sunday night episode (October 6) of his ‘No Ordinary Podcast.’

As reported here, the rapper-social media star (born Darryl Dwayne Granberry Jr.) slammed Budden the day prior once he learned rapper/reality star/podcaster donned him a “clout chaser” and asserted he’s using his highly publicized breakup with actress-singer Halle Bailey for publicity.

Once word landed on Granberry’s desk, he originally clapped back by calling the 44-year-old an “old b*tch” and ridiculing the commercial performance of his music – namely the 2003 hit ‘Pump It Up.’

On Sunday night, he gave his first official statement on Budden’s attack. Hear it inside.

The box office performance of ‘Joker: Folie a Deux‘ over the weekend was no joking matter – at least not to execs at Warner Bros. who were undoubtedly stunned to see how critically and commercially panned the set was.

Starring Academy Award winners Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga in its leading roles of iconic DC Comics characters The Joker and Harley Quinn, hopes were high for the Todd Phillips-directed film as its predecessor – 2019’s ‘Joker’ – not only swept the succeeding awards season but also laughed its way to over $1 billion in revenue.

At present, its follow-up – despite being the #1 film in America this week – doesn’t look poised to boast the same.

For years Nicki Minaj and Safaree were synonymous with one another.

Indeed, when the Rap royal hit the scene and broke through on the mainstream circuit, Safaree was notably always by her side. From music videos to live performances to songwriting credits, the pair essentially came as a package deal.

Ironically towards the end of their tenure together, it was revealed that they were also a couple romantically.

As fate would have it, their paths would take on different courses.

However, in a surprise move, Safaree was spotted at the Miami stop of Minaj’s ‘Pink Friday 2 Tour’ on October 6.

With Diddy at the center of debate after being hit with federal charges, his mother Janice Combs has spoken up and out.

In a statement issued moments ago, the 83-year-old stressed her belief in his “innocence” after he was formally indicted on charges of sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation to engage in prostitution.

The Combs matriarch unpacks her frustration with the “lies” leveled against the embattled mogul and insists that his disproven claim of never being physical with Cassie does not automatically make him guilty of the criminal and growing list of civil cases mounted against him.

She pleaded, adding: “my son is not the monster they have painted him to be.”
