Chrisean Rock and Blueface‘s toxic love affair, easily 2022’s craziest celebrity romance drama, has already been acted out on screens all year long.

Now the on-and-off-again duo are looking to capitalize on the eyes coming their way via a new reality show with Zeus Network.

Titled ‘Crazy in Love,’ a nod to the chart-topping, 2003 hit from Beyonce, the unscripted venture is set to show the lovebirds’ fans an even deeper look behind the scenes of their whirlwind affair – which will be hard to do given how much of it has played out publicly.

With its official trailer surprise-dropped Sunday (October 9), look inside for a taste of what’s to come before the series officially launches.

This time last year Diddy was telling Jermaine Dupri he didn’t have “enough hits” to battle him in a VERZUZ competition.

What turned into a war of words between the label execs/Rap icons eventually saw them not only make a truce, but promise to bring a hit-for-hit duel between their respective labels – Bad Boy and So So Def – to fruition outside of the VERZUZ brand due to the legal combat its creators, Swizz Beatz and Timbaland, were having with Triller (the social media platform where the show is aired).

With that drama behind Tim and Swizz (as we reported here), it appears Dupri and co. are back on board and ready to bring their decades worth of jams to a stage and soon.

With a nearly 40-year career to his credit, Dan Patrick – host of ‘The Dan Patrick Show’ – is revered as a legend among sportscasters.

Kanye West has been the week’s hottest topic thanks to ongoing and fiery discussion around his controversial Yeezy custom White Lives Matter tee shirt – a conversation that was only heightened after the 24-time GRAMMY winner took to FOX News to defend the apparel, slam his ex-wife Kim Kardashian, and more.

And while the fire around the topic shows no signs of cooling, Ye’s incessant rants on Instagram over the week landed him in even hotter water with the good folks at Meta who took the liberty of restricting his IG account due to content deemed “anti-Semitic” (as confirmed by a rep from the organization).

In the post that’s since been removed, the 45-year-old also targeted his fellow Hip-Hop mogul, Diddy.  Look inside to see what he said that put him on the radar of the Bad Boy label exec’s rumored boo, Yung Miami.
