Beyoncé’s nephew Daniel Julez Smith Jr. caused a buzz when he disrobed on the red carpet at the GQ Bowl in New Orleans.

The incident happened at the GQ Bowl at Hotel Peter and Paul on Friday, February 07, in New Orleans.

The aspiring male model, 20, is the son of Beyoncé‘s sister Solange Knowles. Julez arrived at the event wearing a black Bode robe jacket, a white tank top and black dress slippers that feature a grosgrain bow accent.

After posing on the red carpet, Julez surprised photographers by disrobing similar to Kanye West’s wife, Bianca Censori, at the 67th Annual Grammy Awards recently.

Bianca caused an uproar when she walked the red carpet wearing a black fur coat. She dropped the coat to reveal an invisible mesh frock with no bra or panties underneath.

The Grammys said she will not face punishment and she is welcome to return next year.

Julez recently walked in KidSuper’s show for fall 2025, which showcased designer Colm Dillane’s collaboration with Bape. He is Solange’s only child and Beyoncé’s only nephew. His grandma is Tina Knowles.

Ms. Tina (not pictured) was in attendance along with Solange, 38, and Beyoncé, 43, when Julez made his runway debut last February at Luar’s fall 2024 fashion show during New York Fashion Week.

Julez has also walked the runway at Off-White‘s New York Fashion Week show for spring 2025, and for Jil Sander during the spring 2025 show at Milan Fashion Week.

Julez previously dated former Disney child star Skai Jackson, who recently welcomed her first child with her jailed boyfriend.

In an Instagram post, Julez confirmed they broke up after he caught her cheating. He claimed that he “made sure to ruin her life,” and he boasted that he “f****d her good, got her addicted then left.”

Trump: ‘I won’t deport Prince Harry – he has enough problems with his wife’

President Donald Trump is ramping up his campaign promise to deport millions of non-citizens back to their home countries.

Trump recently complained that deportations are not higher in his first three weeks in office. “It’s driving him nuts they’re not deporting more people,” said a person familiar with Trump’s deportation efforts.

But one person Trump has ruled out deporting is England’s Prince Harry, who is married to American actress Meghan Markle.

In an interview, Trump said he won’t deport the Duke of Sussex from the US, because Harry has “enough problems with his wife.” Trump referred to Meghan as “terrible”.

In March 2023, the Heritage Foundation discovered Harry lied on his U.S. visa application. Specifically the part that asks whether he used drugs in the past.

This is the same thing that got Hunter Biden in trouble with the feds – lying about past drug use on a government application form.

But Trump will go easy on Harry and allow him to stay in the U.S. since he’s married to Meghan – whom many consider to be a narcissist.

Prince Harry and Meghan are anti-Trump – although they both stopped short of publicly endorsing Kamala Harris before the 2024 election.

In June 2020, Meghan gave a speech supporting Black Lives Matter for graduates of her old high school Immaculate Heart.

MEGA/WENN

Harry, 40, and Meghan, 43, share two minor children, Archie, 5, who is a British citizen, and Lilibet, 3, who was born in Santa Barbara, CA.

Prince Harry and Meghan align with the Democratic party in America. They lean left and have expressed liberal views, such as Meghan claiming she was transgender as a teenager. She has said she was born a boy and raised as a girl.

When Meghan was 11-years-old she wrote a letter to Proctor & Gamble to complain about the use of the word “women” in an Ivory dish soap commercial. Her letter worked: the company changed the commercial to say “people,” not “women.”

Onijah Robinson has returned home to New York after “catfishing” a 19-year-old pen pal in Pakistan. Karachi police escorted Robinson to the airport on Friday and made sure she got on a plane bound for New York.

The term ‘catfish’ refers to a person who uses fake pictures and false information to trap another individual into a relationship.

Robinson, 33, arrived in Pakistan on October 11, 2024, after developing a relationship with Nidal Ahmed Memon online. She had hoped Memon would marry her, but he rejected her on sight. She then found herself stranded in Karachi when her tourist visa expired in November.

Memon told Robinson that his family would never accept her as his wife. He begged her to leave him alone, but Robinson persisted.

She reportedly camped outside Memon’s apartment in Karachi for nearly 30 hours. But the entire family vacated the house in the middle of the night.

Robinson refused to leave the country until the government paid her $5,000 a week in American dollars. She told reporters she needed around $100,000 USD “to help rebuild Karachi.”

“I want 20K up front, 5K-10K to stay here every week, and I want those demands from the government right away”, she said in videos on TikTok.

The police and social services admitted Robinson to a psychiatric ward at Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Centre. She was released after a brief stay for a psychological evaluation.

Her story generated great interest in America where she went viral on social media.

Robinson’s son, Jeremiah Andrew Robinson, confirmed his mother has mental health problems that were not adequately addressed in America’s mental health system.

“My mother traveled to Pakistan to meet a man and his family. She was supposed to return within two weeks, but she never came back,” Jeremiah said.

Jeremiah explained that he and his sibling made multiple attempts to convince their mother to return home, even purchasing a plane ticket for her, but she refused.

Robinson was previously arrested on a trespassing charge in South Carolina, according to online jail records.

Transgender actor Laverne Cox was a guest on ABC’s “The View” on Friday. Cox appeared alongside fellow actor and comedian George Wallace to talk about their new comedy TV series, “Clean Slate.”

“Clean Slate” is about a father who reconnects with his child – played by Cox – who has recently transitioned into a woman.

Cox discussed President Donald Trump‘s anti-DEI policies and his executive order banning transgender students from playing in girls sports.

On Jan. 20, Trump signed an executive order declaring the government will only recognize 2 genders: male and female.

Cox said everything Trump is doing is illegal.

“I think in terms of the administration and all this propaganda and lies – everything he’s doing is illegal, by the way,” Cox said.

“It started at the state level, many years ago. You know, what is it? 26 states banned ‘gender-affirming care’ for young people. This has been happening at the state level for many years. So, I’ve been devastated because trans families have had to relocate for many years, parents have been criminalized, so it’s been devastating. Now it’s happening on a federal level.”

The “Orange is The New Black” star said Trump’s executive orders “will be challenged in the courts”.

“At the end of the day, trans people are less than 1% of the population and trans people are not the reason you can’t afford eggs, that you can’t afford healthcare. We’re not the reason you can’t buy a house or your rent’s too high,” Cox added. “I think they’re focused on the wrong 1%. I think the other one percent is the reason for all those things.”

T.I. and Tiny’s 8-year-old daughter Heiress Harris scored a guest appearance on “The Ms. Pat Show.” The singer/actress is set to appear in Season 5 in an episode directed by “Cosby” actress Raven-Symoné, 39.

Tiny wrote on Instagram: “I couldn’t be more proud of my lil baby @heiressdharris she is making her mark in this world as a youngin & she was able to be directed by one of the best kid stars to ever do it.”

Heiress is older than Raven-Symoné was when she starred as adorable Olivia on “The Cosby Show” from 1989 to 1992.

Heiress is well known to mom Tameka’s Instagram followers. Over the years Tiny has uploaded numerous videos of Heiress singing cover songs. The youngster eventually grew a loyal following of her own on Instagram.

Heiress has been covered extensively on social media and the blogs, leading some to say the attention is too much, too soon.

Fans say “The Ms. Pat Show” has way too much cursing on the set for a child.

But others disagreed, saying Heiress lives with T.I. and Tiny, so she’s used to hearing profanity.

Update: Elon Musk Says Racist DOGE Engineer Will Be Brought Back

Update: Elon Musk Says Racist DOGE Engineer Will Be Brought Back

Update: Elon Musk says a DOGE staffer who made racist comments on X (Twitter) will be rehired after an online poll.

Marko Elez, a 25-year-old engineer who is part of Musk’s hacker team, resigned after The Wall Street Journal uncovered his racist tweets.

“Just for the record, I was racist before it was cool,” read one of the tweets on Elez’s old account. The tweet was posted in July, and is now scrubbed along with his account.

“You could not pay me to marry outside of my ethnicity,” Elez wrote in another tweet in September. “Normalize Indian hate,” he wrote the same month.

On Friday, Musk posted a poll on X asking whether he should bring back Elez.

“Bring back @DOGE staffer who made inappropriate statements via a now deleted pseudonym?” Musk asked.

Out of nearly 400,000 X users who took the poll, 78 percent said “yes” to 22 percent who said “no.”

Vice President JD Vance was among those who said the racist engineer should be rehired.

“I obviously disagree with some of Elez’s posts, but I don’t think stupid social media activity should ruin a kid’s life,” Vance wrote on Friday. “We shouldn’t reward journalists who try to destroy people. Ever. So I say bring him back. If he’s a bad dude or a terrible member of the team, fire him for that.”

In a tweet on Friday, Musk suggested that The Wall Street Journal reporter who uncovered the engineer’s racist tweets should be fired.

“She should be fired immediately,” Musk tweeted.

Elon Musk tweet

Elez’s supporters claim he was “a teenager” when he wrote the offensive tweets last year.

After the WSJ uncovered the account, White House spokesperson Karoline Leavitt said that Elez had resigned from his job.

However, social media users say every racist deserves a second chance. They asked Musk to rehire Elez because he’s so young and all.

Elez is part of a team of young hackers who uncovered widespread abuse of taxpayer funds during an audit at the USAID humanitarian agency in Washington, DC.

The abuse includes $8 million in payments to Politico.com, $70,000 for a DEI musical in Ireland, $47,000 to a transgender opera in Colombia, and $32,000 for a transgender comic book in Peru.

Musk, who leads the team at DOGE, fired thousands of USAID workers and locked the doors of the building.

Viral video shows Democrat Ilhan Omar and other lawmakers desperately trying to enter the building after holding a Musk protest rally near the White House on Tuesday.

“Empire” actress Serayah McNeil and aspiring rapper Joey Bada$$ are expecting their first child together.

Social media users expressed their excitement when Serayah hit the runway at the AdoreMe fashion show with an obvious baby bump.

Serayah stunned in a red bra and panty set with a sheer white robe. As she reached the end of the runway, she stopped and rubbed her belly with both hands.

Later, during the show’s finale, she did it again, sparking more speculation that she fell pregnant with Joey’s unborn child.

Serayah and Joey Bada$$, 30, went Instagram official in 2023. He rose from obscurity as a freestyle rapper on YouTube at age 17. In 2013, he was chosen for the cover of XXL magazine’s Freshman Class.

Serayah, 29, is best known for her role as Tiana Brown on the FOX TV soap opera drama “Empire.”

Serayah made headlines in 2020 when she commented on Dwyane Wade’s child, Zaya, transitioning from a boy to a girl.

“Let’s not jump to a life-changing decision that will never be undone… That’s serious! That’s really, really serious,” Serayah wrote in a social media video post in February 2020.

She added: “I’m accepting of my child being gay, that’s OK, but there are so many other things around in society that is pressuring children and parents to be a certain type of way. Let’s just take back the reigns, OK?”

Speaking directly to Zaya, Serayah said: “I think everything is a little bit too premature. I don’t care if you’re a boy or a girl. For me, there’s things we need to be worried about at this time. What do you wanna do in life? Do you wanna be in any (sports) activities?”

She concluded: “It’s OK! We’re just not gonna go there right now. Let’s wait ’til you get a little bit older, and this is exactly what you want to do and be for the rest of your life.”

A Louisiana woman has been charged in connection with the death of a young reporter who was in New Orleans to cover the Super Bowl.

Kenner police arrested 48-year-old Danette Colbert as a person of interest in the death of Telemundo sports reporter Adan Manzano.

Manzano, 27, was found deceased in his hotel room in New Orleans on Wednesday, Feb. 5.

According to a police report, obtained by DailyMail.com, Colbert was seen using the deceased reporter’s credit card at several stores in the New Orleans area.

Colbert had a history of drugging and robbing men after meeting them in hotel lobbies and accompanying them to their hotel rooms.

Security footage shows Colbert with Manzano on Wednesday morning when he was last seen alive.

Hours later, Colbert was seen leaving Manzano’s hotel, according to investigators. Manzano was ultimately found deceased in his hotel room. Authorities say there were no signs of obvious trauma to Manzano’s body.

Tragically, Manzano’s wife Ashleigh died last April in a car crash that also seriously injured their infant daughter. The accident occurred in Topeka, Kansas, where the family lived, according to WIBW.

Manzano, a native of Mexico, paid tribute to his wife in a post on Instagram.

Colbert was previously arrested in January 2022 for allegedly drugging a man and stealing $50,000 from him on the Las Vegas Strip. Colbert denied drugging the man, but she was later charged for similar crimes in Nevada. The victims in those cases survived their reported drugging.

A beauty pageant in Africa is making waves by banning lacefront wigs and mandating natural hair among its contestants.

The Miss Cote d’Ivoire 2025 beauty pageant in West Africa has officially banned the use of hair weaves, wigs, and hair extensions.

Cote d’Ivoire is the first pageant in the world to mandate natural hair.

The mandate to wear natural hairstyles was announced on January 28. Pageant officials asked contestants to embrace their natural hair. The natural styles can be long, short or shaved.

Victor Yapobi, president of the organizing committee, said something had to be done about the weave pandemic. He referenced past contestants at the Miss Universe pageant that wore short natural hair.

The mandate has drawn mixed reactions from Americans who praised Africans for setting new beauty standards. But others complain that the new mandate is meant to oppress Black women.

The hair extensions trend was popularized in the Black community in the 1970s when American singer Patrice Rushen wore hair extensions and beads on the cover of her 1979 album, Pizzazz.

Then music icon Stevie Wonder rocked braid extensions and beads on the cover of his first platinum-selling album, Hotter Than July, in 1980.

The hair extensions style went viral and Black women began requesting the hairstyle in beauty salons.

Now weaves and extensions are the dominant hairstyle in America, worn by nearly 90% of Black women and 5% of Black men.

The late manosphere leader Kevin Samuels criticized hair weaves and wigs in a new video on his YouTube channel (below).

Shaquille O’Neal is the second former athlete to have a TV game show canceled abruptly.

ABC’s trivia game show “Lucky 13” premiered in July 2024, and was co-hosted by O’Neal and Gina Rodriguez.

ABC agreed to pay out more than $460,000 to contestants after the production company behind the game show declared bankruptcy.

Deadline reports that the Disney-owned network decided to make sure contestants received the prize money they are owed – even though ABC was not legally obligated to pay out.

A UK-based production company, Studio 1, paid “Lucky 13” production expenses up front in exchange for a share of ABC’s advertising and product placement sales.

But the game show had low ratings in America. After revenue fell far short of expectations, the game show was not renewed for a second season.

Post about Shaquille O'Neal

Two companies set up by Studio 1, Lucky 13 Holdings and Studio 13 Entertainment, declared bankruptcy and went under.

Hosts O’Neal and Rodriguez, as well as prize winners, were not paid after Studio 1 declared bankruptcy.

13 contestants were owed prize money totaling $461,500, with individual prizes ranging from $3,750 to $125,000.

ABC paid everyone even though the network was not obligated to do so.

Last November, Studio 1 CEO Adrian Woolfe told Deadline: “We are in the process of taking proactive protective steps to restructure the Studio 1 business and to unlock and protect the value of the now-proven Lucky 13 IP.

Dwyane Wade The Cube

Last week, retired Miami Heat star Dwyane Wade’s game show “The Cube” was canceled after he revealed his kidney cancer diagnosis.

In a recent episode of his podcast, Wade said he underwent surgery in 2023 and had 40% of his right kidney removed.

Wade shared the symptoms he experienced before he was diagnosed with kidney cancer.

He said, aside from stomach issues and cramps, he wondered why his urine stream was “weak.”

“Why is my piss coming out slow, why is my stream ain’t powerful? Why is it a little weak?” he said.

Wade underwent an MRI imaging test that confirmed a cancerous tumor in his right kidney.

He is currently in remission.
