Chris Brown is in a remorseful mood.

The performer made headlines after losing to Robert Glasper at the GRAMMY Awards 2023.

As reported, the 33-year-old star took umbrage with Glasper bagging Best R&B Album over him at Sunday night’s ceremony. He wrote in response:

“Y’all playing. Who da f*ck is this?!”

Now, he’s changed his tune.

Cop a gander of Jonathan Majors!

Armed with the momentum of a captivating collection of roles, the actor’s star is shining brighter than ever.

And the luminosity is only set to intensify as he gears up for big screen bows in ‘Creed III’ and ‘Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania.’

The 33-year-old also earned rave reviews at the Sundance Film Festival for his jaw-dropping upcoming flick, ‘Magazine Dreams‘ – in which he plays a troubled bodybuilder.

With packed plate of activity in front of him, Majors is hitting the the promo trail and Ebony Magazine‘s February issue was his latest stop.

For seven seasons, viewers of the ‘Real Housewives of Potomac’ have watched the unique relationship between Robyn Dixon and partner Juan Dixon play out.

Season 1 of the hit reality Bravo series introduced the pair as divorcees who cohabitated for the sake of their children.

In the time since, the flames of romance (or “convenience,” according to some of Robyn’s castmates) re-sparked and the couple got back together.

However, that didn’t stop allegations of infidelity from trailing the Dixons. Especially, with Robyn admitting early on the show that Juan’s infidelity was central to their initial split.

Last week, the duo hit headlines after Robyn slammed a woman she says was trying to claim she and Juan had an affair.

Perhaps most shocking were her revelations that she knew about the allegations throughout filming season 7 and remained quiet about it. The mom of two admitted that there had been inappropriate contact but denied that any sexual straying took place.

RHOP fans took to social media to slam Robyn, with many bemoaning how “activated” she was in the business of others during the show’s latest season, while simultaneously being covert about her own. There were also eyebrows regarding the info being poured out on her podcast – notably after the show’s airing and after the taping of the reunion.

With calls for Robyn’s spot on the show to be “evaluated,” the 43-year-old – who recently re-married Juan – was put in the hot seat by ‘Housewives’ boss Andy Cohen during a visit to Watch What Happens Live. 

Find out what she had to say about the fiasco after the jump. It certainly makes for an interesting…story.

Hollywood’s latest reboot sees ‘White Men Can’t Jump’ revived for a whole new generation.

Anchored by rapper Jack Harlow (in his feature film debut) and actor Sinqua Walls, the refreshed take on the 1992 classic tells the tale of two basketball hustlers. Initially, at odds with each other (both on and off the court), they eventually team up to conquer a bigger goal.

‘First Class’ MC Harlow takes on the role of Jeremy (a spin on the character played by Woody Harrelson), while Walls stars as Kamal (a character inspired by Wesley Snipes‘ role in the original flick).

Set for release on Hulu on May 19 (and Star in international territories), a first look teaser trailer for the 20th Century Fox production has been unveiled.

It’s often claimed that time and circumstance can heal wounds. However, the reality is that sometimes it makes matters worse. Case in point the raging rift between Migos stars Quavo and Offset. 

The pair have been at odds for months and a series of social media unfollowings as well as the mounting of a duo effort between Quavo and Takeoff left the group’s future in doubt.

Tragically, a more permanent change in the dynamic was cemented when Takeoff was killed in a Houston shooting on November 1.

In the time since, both Quavo and Offset have paid tribute to their fallen bandmate – but have been noticeably quiet about the status of their own relationship.

Unfortunately, it looks like the flames of fury are still raging between the surviving members of the group and erupted in a major way at last night’s GRAMMY Awards.

As if entering the the 2023 ceremony Sunday night (February 5) as the night’s most-nominated act wasn’t enough to celebrate (9 nominations), the ‘Break My Soul’ singer’s multiple wins led her right into history books for breaking the record for most overall wins before the show was even halfway done.

Little did fans know, that history-making feat is where Beyonce‘s GRAMMY triumphs halted.

One of the “Big 4” trophies handed out every GRAMMY Awards, Best New Artist stands as the ultimate testament to the impact a rising star had on the music industry in the nomination eligibility year.

Known by many as the “kiss of death” because many of its recipients over the years went on to see their careers stall or derail after capturing the award, former winners like Mariah Carey, Sade, Toni Braxton, and Alicia Keys went on to defy those odds after respectively taking the award home.

Undoubtedly hoping to keep the latter tradition going, Anitta, Wet Leg, Molly Tuttle, Tobe Nwigwe, Domi & JD Beck, Omar Apollo, Maneskin, Latto, Muni Long, and Samara Joy went head-to-head at the 2023 GRAMMYS on Sunday (February 5) to see who would be named the category’s victor.

See how Joy’s emergence as winner entered her in a unique class.

As reported here, Beyonce – the most-decorated singer in GRAMMY history thanks to 28 previous wins – entered the 65th annual GRAMMY Awards Sunday night (February 5) with nine nominations for work found aboard her seventh solo studio album, ‘Renaissance.‘

Making her the night’s most-nominated act, the additional nine nods also put her in the race to become the most-decorated act overall if she could snag at least four of the nine categories she’s nominated in.

Before the first hour of the GRAMMYs reached conclusion, she’d already won 3. By the end of the second hour, she’d broken the record.

It’s been 11 years since Chris Brown won his first and last GRAMMY (Best R&B Album for 2011’s ‘F.A.M.E.’), a status his dedicated fans (affectionately called #TeamBreezy) were certainly hoping would change Sunday night (February 5) when the crooner was listed again in the same category.

This time earning mention for his 2022 effort ‘Breezy,’ the R&B bad boy had stiff competition from the likes of Queen of Hip-Hop Soul Mary J. Blige, Lucky Daye, PJ Morton, and Robert Glasper.

After Glasper was named victor for his critically acclaimed album ‘Black Radio III,’ however, Brown and his fans took to social media to let it be known they weren’t exactly happy about the news.
