The grieving mother of Texas rapper Lil Ronnie’s 5-year-old daughter has asked people to stop sharing viral video of their final moments.

Forest Hill police say Ronnie “LilRonnie” Sibley and his 5-year-old daughter, R’mani Sibley, were targeted at Slappy’s Express car wash on Forest Hill Drive just before 11 a.m. Monday.

Surveillance video shows Sibley vacuuming his Dodge Charger when 2 gunmen approached the passenger side and opened fire, killing R’mani instantly.

In the video, Sibley, also known as G$ Lil Ronnie, Hoodfame Lil Ronnie and Chuckie Smith, is seen fleeing, but the gunmen chased him and fatally shot him.

In a post on Facebook, Shamon Jones wrote: “Anybody sharing that video of my babies last moments you will be blocked! Y’all are my Facebook friends. I don’t want that image of them in my head. I’m trying so hard not to spazz on you mfrs. FUNERAL & WAKE WILL BE PRIVATE JUS FOR THESE REASONS [sic].”

She continued: “F**K THE ENTIRE WORLD. Y’all don’t know how this sh*t feels. No remorse not even for my princess. Logging back off!!!”

Ronnie Smith

“We are shocked, appalled and deeply troubled by the senseless and violent events that occurred today,” said the owners of Slappy’s car wash.

Forest Hill had no homicides in 2024, according to the city’s police department, but this year, they have had 5 murders.

“We were crime free completely last year, no murders in our city for one whole year, and then to have three different occasions back to back, we just have to all stand together,” Mayor Stephanie Boardingham said.

A judge signed a capital murder warrant for one suspect, whose name has not been released. The second suspect has not been identified.

“Currently, we are not ready to release the suspect’s name as the investigation continues,” a Forest Hill PD spokesman said in a news release.

However, Smith’s grieving fans named one local rapper as a possible suspect.

“Tell ’em laugh now,” the aspiring rapper mocked the victim in a post on Instagram. He also shared a video of himself stuck in traffic near the crime scene.

“Who tf got Forest Hill all blocked off? I’m tryna get a car wash,” he captioned the video.

Am angry follower wrote in the comments: “Bragging about killing a child is f***ing insane, karma gonna come back to you 4x worse better watch you’re [sic] back at all times.”

NBA star Anthony Edwards scores major win in child support case

A California judge handed NBA star Anthony Edwards a major victory in his child support case against one of his baby mamas.

According to court documents obtained by In Touch, Edwards convinced the judge that Ayesha Howard‘s paternity lawsuit should be heard in a Georgia court.

In a declaration, Anthony told the judge he did not want custody or visitation rights for his daughter with Ayesha.

“[Ayesha] and I have one minor child together, Aubri Summer Howard. Paternity was recently established through DNA testing. I am not seeking child custody or visitation of Aubri. Therefore, the only issues to be resolved are financial in nature.”

In her own declaration, Ayesha said, “Upon informing Anthony of the pregnancy, he blocked me on all communication platforms and made it clear, through text messages, that he did not want to be involved in the life of our child. His exact words were that our daughter would be a ‘fatherless child.'”

Ayesha added, “From that point on, Anthony never reached out to me to inquire about my well-being, the well-being of our child, or any of the needs I had during my pregnancy. I did not receive any support—emotional, financial or otherwise — throughout the entire duration of my pregnancy.”

According to In Touch, the judge granted a motion to move the case from California to Georgia.

Georgia judges are notorious for siding with fathers. The average child support payment in Georgia is $2,000 a month – regardless of the father’s net worth.

Anthony had accused Ayesha of filing her paternity suit in Los Angeles to get more money out of him.

As reported earlier, Anthony rushed to Georgia to file his own paternity case even before the baby was born.

He alleged Ayesha lived in Georgia, and he found an LLC for a business she owned that is registered in Georgia despite her claims in court that she moved to California.

A state where a business is located and registered has jurisdiction over the business owner.

Ayesha claimed she moved to California before giving birth to Aubri in Santa Monica in October. But Anthony argued that Ayesha filed her case in California in an attempt to score higher child support from him.

Ayesha’s attorney presented text messages that show Anthony asking Ayesha to have an abortion.

The Timberwolves guard made it very clear to Ayesha that he didn’t want any more kids.

“Get a abortion lol,” he wrote. But Ayesha responded she would not get an abortion.

Dwayne Wade gives son 4 years to get his life together – or he’ll be cut off financially

Retired NBA star Dwyane Wade is losing patience with his eldest son Zaire Wade (right).

Zaire was a standout basketball player in high school. He received scholarship offers from multiple colleges, but he chose to skip college and turn professional instead.

Most fathers will do anything to help their children achieve success in life. Dwyane Wade went one step further: he bought his son a G League team.

But Zaire opted to play basketball professionally in Africa and then China – to the disappointment of his father.

On the latest episode of his podcast, Wade revealed he has given Zaire four years to figure out his life before he cuts off his funds.

“My son right now is 23 years old,” Wade said. “He didn’t go to college, we sent him right to the G League at 19. He went to Africa, he went to China, he has had no time to really figure life out,” he said.

“And so for me, my conversation with my oldest son who is really independent is, ‘Hey, you got four years. You got a buffer. You have done this. You got the next four years of your life from 23 to 27, to figure out what you want to do. Go chase what you want to chase, but hey, you got a trust fund, too, that’s going to give you that soft cushion for the next four years to do that.'”

Wade, 43, let Zaire know that he is not an ATM machine. If Zaire doesn’t get his life together in 4 years, he will be cut off financially.

“Now, when that trust fund run out, you on your own, Jojo,” Wade said. “This ain’t a gas tank, it don’t get refilled.”

Wade retired from the Miami Heat and the team retired his #3 jersey in 2020.

Wade purchased a minority ownership stake in the Utah Jazz in 2021. That gave him a minority ownership in the Salt Lake City Stars team of the G League.

The Salt Lake City Stars drafted Zaire with the 10th pick in the 2021 NBA G League draft.

Wade gave Zaire a rare opportunity to play in the NBA G League – like LeBron James did for his son, Bronny James.

But Zaire only played 12 games for the Stars.

On March 12, 2022, Zaire was placed on the injured reserve list. He never played again in the G League.

On February 4, 2023, Zaire signed with the Cape Town Tigers in Africa. The following year, he played for a pro team in China.

In short, Zaire has been a disappointment to his father, who refuses to accept failure as an option.

Last month rumors spread online that Lori Harvey and British actor Aaron Pierre were dating. Lori was quick to shut down the rumors for obvious reasons.

The aspiring model and entrepreneur reacted to the rumors on social media. She politely denied having any interest in the “Mufasa: The Lion King” star.

At the time, I noted that Aaron is one of the most handsome bachelors on either side of the pond. He’s definitely a ladies man.

But some of you claimed Aaron was in a longterm relationship with another woman.

Apparently not, because Teyana Taylor is with him now.

Teyana, 34, and Aaron, 30, made their relationship Instagram official with a post that leaves no doubts.

Teyana’s fans on Reddit.com are happy for her.

One fan wrote: “Call me shallow, but I love when both halves of a couple are attractive.”

Another person wrote: “Huge upgrade from Iman Shumpert.”

A third fan wrote: “one thing about Teyana she will find herself a fine man.”

Teyana is a mother of 2. She and former NBA player Iman Shumpert, 34, separated in September 2023 after seven years of marriage. They share 2 daughters, Iman Shumpert Jr, 9, and Rue Shumpert, 4.

Last month, rap mogul Shawn Carter, aka Jay Z, filed a lawsuit against Houston attorney Tony Buzbee for slandering his good name. This week the embattled rapper moved forward with a lawsuit against his former accuser, Jane Doe.

The unnamed Alabama woman accused Jay-Z of raping her when she was 13 years old. The incident allegedly happened after the MTV Video Music Awards in New York in 2000.

But the details of what happened that night were sketchy and Jane Doe’s father said he never picked her up from New York City that night.

As reported earlier, Buzbee dropped the sex assault lawsuit against Jay-Z, Sean Combs and Bad Boy, LLC. The lawsuit can’t be filed again.

According to Variety, Jay-Z sued Buzbee for knowingly making “false” and “malicious,” allegations that were “strategically and tactically calculated and timed to inflict maximum pain and suffering on Mr. Carter.”

Jay-Z’s attorneys claimed that Jane Doe had informed Buzbee that her story was made up — that the rapper “did not sexually assault [her],” and that Buzbee pushed her to go forward with the false allegations against Jay-Z to extort him for more money.

However, Jay-Z is suing Doe anyway. His lawsuit notes that he “does not commence this action lightly,” and that he doesn’t want to expose Doe’s identity to the world despite the pain and suffering she caused him and his family.

But, the suit continues, Jay-Z does want to “hold Doe accountable for her willful defamation… and her malicious prosecution of knowingly false allegations.”

Forest Hill, Texas police are investigating the double murders of a popular local rapper and his 5-year-old daughter at a car wash on Monday.

The child had just turned 5 the day before she was killed.

The man is identified as aspiring rapper Ronnie “Lil Ronnie” Smith, of Fort Worth.

He was also known as “Fame Hood Lil Ronnie” and “Chuckie Smith.”

Forest Hill police say Smith, 30, was vacuuming his car at Slappy’s Express car wash on Forest Hill Drive when 2 gunmen approached the car from the passenger side and opened fire.

Surveillance video from the car wash shows Smith, wearing a red track suit, fleeing the scene.

Smith was unable to jump over a wooden fence that borders the property. He tried to return to the car, but the gunmen spotted him and chased him behind a dumpster where he was shot multiple times.

Smith staggered toward a car wash stall where he collapsed and died not far from where his daughter lay dead.

A woman who lives near the car wash told a reporter she heard gunshots and called 911.

“I heard six — one, two, three, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop — then about a few seconds later, I heard another six,” she said.

“I wish they hadn’t put that car wash right there because, yeah, it’s just been like issues upon issues. Mainly with traffic getting out of my neighborhood,” another neighbor complained.

Forest Hill PD said the victim’s car was riddled with bullet holes.

Forest Hill has counted 4 murders so far this year. Last year there were none.

The news of Smith’s murder spread on social media and fans reacted with outrage.

One fan wrote, “Rip babygirl wish your daddy made better decisions.”

Surveillance video of the shooting went viral on Monday night.

Police confirmed at least one suspect is identified and an arrest warrant for capital murder of a child has been issued.

“Currently, we are not ready to release the suspect’s name as the investigation continues,” a Forest Hill PD spokesman said in a news release.

However, Smith’s grieving fans named one local rapper as a possible suspect.

Jamie Foxx shut down rumors that he has a homeless son who is living out of his car.

In January, a man who claimed to be the comedian’s son called Foxx a “deadbeat dad”.

In the undated video shared on X, the man accused Foxx of being too “busy” to care about him. “He never supported my dreams,” the man said, while fighting back tears.

The man claimed he last met Foxx on the red carpet at a premiere for Foxx’s move The Soloist in 2009.

“We took pictures at the red carpet — that’s my last time seeing him,” the man said in the video.

However, Foxx’s nephew denied the rumors in a video uploaded to social media on Sunday.

“Bro, my uncle do not got a son,” he said. “I’m the closest he got to a son.

He then turned to the garage, where Foxx was working on a car, and shouted, “Uncle Jamie, tell them you ain’t got no son.”

Foxx responded, “I ain’t got no gotd*mn son, boy.”

Foxx, 57, publicly claims 2 daughters: Corinne, 31, and Anelise, 16.

Angie Stone fans believe she was killed after she called out UMG for stealing her royalties

Angie Stone‘s heartbroken fans are convinced she was killed after she accused Universal Music Group (UMG) of stealing her royalties.

The Grammy-nominated Neo Soul icon died tragically on Saturday, March 1, when an 18-wheeler clipped a Sprinter van she was riding in. The Sprinter van rolled over several times on highway 65 in Montgomery, Alabama.

Stone, 63, and nine members of her band had just left a performance and were on their way to the CIAA Men’s Basketball Tournament in Baltimore, Maryland when she died.

Grieving fans uploaded a recent video in which Stone complained that UMG mishandled her music royalties.

WENN.com

Stone called the alleged theft, “the worst thing that could possibly happen to any artist after 45-50 years in the business…”

She added, “It has of course happened to me, and I’m constantly in prayer for God to forgive the people that have wished me ill will or… or done anything to remotely get in the way of the gift of sharing with my fans.”

“End of the day, after 40-something years in the business, I’m like, well, why, um, where are my royalties going? Come to find out, Universal Music has been receiving all my royalties,” she said. “They have taken pretty much everything… they have taken all money that (was) due to me.”

Stone also discussed a health scare that affected her in November 2024, 2 days before a concert in Detroit.

Stone said she had bloodwork done by a licensed professional who used a “tainted needle.” She suffered a Staph blood infection and was hospitalized.

Stone revealed she was being targeted because she exposed UMG for stealing millions from her for years.

WENN.com

Stone says her Christmas song was removed from all music platforms by UMG, and she was blamed for the removal of the song.

“I knew it was an attack, I knew it was a spiritual attack on me,” she said.

“I should’ve been able to retire 20 years ago with the money I’ve made,” she shared.

Stone said multiple class action lawsuits have been filed against UMG — and that she was determined to get back the millions they have stolen from her.

Stone, whose full name is Angela Laverne Brown, was born in Columbia, South Carolina. She made her home in Stone Mountain, Georgia, where she lived with her 2 children, Michael and Diamond, and 2 grandchildren.

Kourtney hit back at claims that she’s a first time grandma in a post on Instagram.

In her post, the eldest Kardashian sister wrote: “I rarely address rumors or conspiracies regarding myself or my family, but this is about my child and it feels wrong to let anyone think for a second that these lies are remotely true. They are not.”

The mom-of-four concluded, “Please stop spreading false narratives and spinning lies. And to all the other people making videos about my kids (who, by the way, are minors), please stop and leave them alone.”

The news first broke in a Kardashian-focused subreddit, where a user posted screenshots from Mason’s alleged IG burner accounts: “masonddsh” and “masonsecrety.”

Mason allegedly confirmed he fathered a baby girl named Piper who is now 1.

One follower requested a “Pic of Piper”, and Mason responded with two infant photos. Another follower directly asked if he had welcomed a baby, to which the account replied, “Yea I did.

BACKGRID

In another post, Mason allegedly expressed problems with his parents, and he said being wealthy did not guarantee happiness.

Mason lives full-time with his father Scott Disick, who monitors his social media and sometimes listens in on his phone calls.

Scott doesn’t hesitate to give Mason advice on relationships and teenage alcoholism.

On Khloe Kardashian‘s podcast, Scott revealed: “Recently, he’s starting to really like girls. And obviously, girls like him.”

He said he advises Mason: “You can do whatever you want, but just don’t lie and don’t manipulate any girls.”

Diddy’s Kids Burning Through His Cash While He Sits in Jail?

Last year there were rumors that disgraced music mogul Sean Combs’ son Christian was in a knock down, drag out fight with his grandmother, Janice Combs, over control of Combs’ money while he’s in a Brooklyn jail awaiting trial.

According to the New York Post, Christian may have won the fight with his grandmother.

Christian and his siblings are allegedly burning through their father’s cash like there is no tomorrow.

Combs’ oldest children – Justin, 31, Christian, 26, Chance, 19, 18-year-old twins D’Lila and Jessie, and their half-brother Quincy Brown, 33, are spending Combs’ money on exotic vacations, parties, private jets, jewelry, and clothing, a source close to the family told The Post.

As Combs, also known as “Puffy” and “Diddy”, awaits the start of his May 5 trial on human trafficking and racketeering charges, his children have been spending lavishly on island vacations and extravagant shopping sprees both here and abroad, said the source.

Pictures on Christian’s Instagram page show him shopping for diamond-encrusted watches and designer jackets at a luxury vintage clothing store, and exiting an SUV carrying shopping bags from high-end shops.

“City neva sleep!” Christian captioned the post.

One follower wrote in the comments: “Better hold on to some of that money. Pops facing hard time.”

Christian also spent lavishly on a party and gifts for his twin sisters’ 18th birthday in December.

“They wanna look like ballers and project this image on Instagram and TikTok,” the source explained. “But that’s Diddy’s money. I mean, maybe he gave them permission to spend it, but I doubt it, since he’s got all these people suing him.”

Combs was arrested in September at a Manhattan hotel. Since then, he has been locked up in a federal jail in Brooklyn, awaiting trial.

Meanwhile, his children have been flying on his private jet to California, Hawaii, Texas, Florida and several other states, as well as Mexico, Italy, India, Ireland, Canada and St. Martin, according to flight tracking data reviewed by The Post.

“Jet fuel ain’t cheap,” said the source. “Every other day, these kids are getting on Puff’s jet, and every time they do that, it costs him thousands — just for the f–king fuel,” the source said.
