In 2025 Cardi B and vlogger Tasha K agreed to a $1.2 million settlement to end their contentious defamation lawsuit.
In 2022, the rapper won a $4 million default judgment against the popular YouTuber for defamation.
Tasha K agreed to pay Cardi B nearly $15,000 a month with the amount escalating yearly until the $1.2 million debt is paid off in 5 years.
I spoke to Tasha K by phone on February 5, and she told me she has been keeping up with her payments to Cardi B as agreed.
Now comes word that Cardi B asked a judge for a personal review of Tasha K’s finances in her Florida bankruptcy case.

The backlash against the music producer began when he and Selena first started dating. Fans noted at the time that he looked like he smelled.
“He’s the most disgusting person I’ve ever seen in my life, seriously, it blows my mind that Selena is with this f-cking creature,” one fan wrote.
“The fact that his feet are ACTUALLY that filthy makes me sick to my stomach. Like Selena girl what’s going on?” another fan wrote.
A third person commented, “Bro I never wear socks and walk bare feet all the time and my feet are never that dirty.”
Following the backlash, Benny appeared as a guest on Jimmy Kimmel Live! He blamed the facility where his podcast is filmed. He claimed the facility’s floors are filthy.
“It’s the facility’s fault. I have great feet,” Benny said before removing a shoe to show off his clean foot.
Smoothie King’s corporate office responded after a worker at a franchise in Ann Arbor, Michigan, refused to serve a customer wearing a Trump hoodie.
The incident went viral after the man’s wife recorded the workers refusing to serve him because of his hoodie.
“That’s discrimination. That is illegal,” said the woman.
But the workers doubled down, saying it is not discrimination to refuse to serve a Trump supporter.

Smoothie King’s corporate office responded to the uproar on social media. A spokesperson said two of its employees are “no longer” working for the company.
Janiyah Mishelle Williams (pictured up top) is one of the former workers in Ann Arbor.
After going viral, she quickly posted a GoFundMe link hoping to get paid for her on-the-job activism.

In the GoFundMe summary, Janiyah described herself as a “minor” who was being recorded without permission. She claimed she received “hundreds of threats” and the job was not safe to return to.
GoFundMe has since removed her page for violating one of its terms that prohibits discriminating against others.
Janiyah posted videos doubling on her activism, saying that “this is good vs evil, we need to stand up.”
She made it clear that her activism was not about Trump.
“It’s not about Trump, it’s not about Biden. Baby, Israel – Israel is the real issue here, Ok? We all need to just wake up and accept it,” she said in a video on Instagram.

Sean Combs received good news in his fight to appeal his 4-year prison sentence.
Combs’ prison release date has been pushed up to April 25, 2028, Page Six exclusively reported, according to the Federal Bureau of Prisons.
The good news comes after Combs was accepted into a drug-abuse rehabilitation program in November. Entering a drug abuse rehabilitation program can shorten a prison sentence.

The rap mogul’s release date was pushed back when he was caught drinking homemade brew, which violated prison rules at FCI Fort Dix in New Jersey.
In addition to being caught drinking hooch (fermented wine made out of Fanta soda, sugar and apples), he was also caught making unauthorized phone calls.
Jail officials moved Combs into a new unit to separate him from bad influence at the prison.
A rep for Combs explained: “Mr. Combs is an active participant in the Residential Drug Abuse Program (RDAP) and has taken his rehabilitation process seriously from the start. He is fully engaged in his work, focused on growth, and committed to positive change.”
Combs was convicted of 2 counts of transporting male escorts for prostitution in 2025. He was sentenced to 4 years and two months in federal prison.
Additionally, he was fined $500,000 and ordered to serve 5 years of supervised release.
Netflix’s bid to acquire Warner Bros. failed due to the presence of tampons in a men’s restroom at Netflix headquarters, according to a report.
Netflix declined to increase its $73 billion offer for Warner Bros. Discovery after Paramount Skydance made a higher offer of $80.5 billion.
The streaming giant had until March 4 at 11:59 p.m. ET, to come up with a new proposal to top Paramount’s “superior proposal.”

According to the New York Post, tampons in the men’s room at Netflix headquarters became a talking point among Republican lawmakers.
During the negotiations for regulatory approval for Netflix’s proposed acquisition of Warner Bros., GOP lawmakers were told the streaming giant was not a left-wing company looking to become more powerful by purchasing Warner Bros. Discovery.
GOP legislators were “shocked and disturbed” to find tampons in the men’s restroom.
GOP legislators who visited Netflix headquarters in Los Gatos, California, were “shocked and disturbed” to find a basket containing tampons in the men’s restroom.
The “tampon incident” became a talking point on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC.
“This is 2026, not 2020,” said one GOP staffer, referring to Netflix’s progressive social agenda. “What were they thinking?”
Many Americans objected to Netflix purchasing Warner Bros. because it would likely mean the end of physical media.
Movie fans are urged to buy their own physical media before movies and TV shows on VHS tape and DVDs are gone for good.
The White House physician explained a red rash visible on President Donald Trump’s neck during a White House ceremony on Monday.
Dr. Sean Barbabella, the president’s personal physician, said the rash is a side effect to a “very common cream” used to treat skin conditions.
“The President is using this treatment for one week, and the redness is expected to last for a few weeks,” Dr. Barbabella said in a statement to NBC News.
Photos of Trump’s neck rash went viral on social media on Monday. The rash was visible on the right side of his neck during a Medal of Honor ceremony in the East Room of the White House on Monday, March 2.
Dr. Barbabella didn’t provide the name of the preventative cream.
A dermatologist on X.com said the ointment may be Triamcinolone cream, a corticosteroid used to treat skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, or allergies.
Triamcinolone cream is prescription only and is used to relieve redness, inflammation, itching and swelling caused by eczema and other skin conditions.
Triamcinolone ointment can cause side effects that include burning, itching, redness and dryness at the application site.
Trump, 79, is the oldest person to be elected president. He has had other skin conditions such as bruising on the back of his hand caused by taking high doses of Aspirin – a blood thinner that can cause bruises.
“They say aspirin is good for thinning out the blood, and I don’t want thick blood pouring through my heart,” Trump told the Wall Street Journal. “I take the larger [dose], but I’ve done it for years, and what it does do is it causes bruising.”
Trump had his annual physical exam that included an MRI in April 2025.
Military veteran Kita Rose issued a warning to women being deployed to the Middle East to support the US-Israeli operations in Iran.
President Trump ordered missile strikes that killed Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei on Saturday, February 28.
Ali Shamkani, Iran’s former head of national defense council, was also killed in the missile strikes.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said at a Pentagon briefing that the operations in Iran are not a “regime change war” and will not be an endless conflict.
“This is not Iraq. This is not endless,” he said. “This is not a so-called regime change war, but the regime sure did change, and the world is better off for it.”
Meanwhile, military veteran Kita Rose says women being deployed in the Middle East are not safe from their own commanders.

“If you haven’t figured it out by now, you are fighting for a country that does not give a f–k about you,” Kita Rose said in a video going viral on Instagram.
“Women in the armed forces have to fight off more than just the ‘enemy’. FIND YOUR BATTLE & be safe.”

Kita said male soldiers are “in survival” mode and they think they can do whatever they want to women because there are less rules. They don’t believe there will be consequences in a foreign country.
She warned women to buddy up with other women in the armed forces because a lot of women get s*xually assaulted in the military.
Kita urged women who are SA’d to write down names of the attacker and the people who were around at the time. “Do not run to the first female sergeant or female commander that you see” because “they are not girls’ girls.”

Kita said women who are SA’d in the military should wait until after they return home from deployment to report the assault. She also suggested going to therapy because the therapy notes will be used as evidence.

BAFTAs host Alan Cumming slammed the BBC over its “sh*t show” presentation after a Tourette’s racist incident.
Cumming hosted The British Academy Film Awards in London, England on Sunday, Feb. 22. He called the BBC broadcast a “triggering sh*t show” after Tourette’s sufferer John Davidson shouted the n-word – and the BBC did not edit it out of the final televised broadcast.
“Sinners” actress Jayme Lawson accused the BBC and BAFTA of not caring for the dignity or the humanity of Black people. She said leaving the n-word in the broadcast was not an accident.
Davidson also shouted a homophobic slur while Cumming was on stage – but the BBC edited the slur out of the broadcast. Cumming identifies as bisexual.
The Scottish actor, who also hosts “The Traitors US,” apologized for both incidents, saying “we were let down”.
“I’m so sorry for all the pain Black people have felt hearing that word echoed round the world. I’m so sorry the Tourette’s community has been reminded of the lack of understanding and tolerance that abounds regarding their condition,” he said.
Davidson shouted the racial slur while “Sinners” costars Michael B. Jordan and Delroy Lindo presented the first award of the evening at London’s Royal Festival Hall.
Despite there being a 2-hour delay between the live ceremony and the BBC’s coverage, the racial slur was not edited from the final broadcast.
But the BBC edited out a homophobic slur shouted at Cumming.
The BBC’s actions imply that the racial slur is socially acceptable, while the homophobic slur was not.
The BBC also edited out the words “Free Palestine” from filmmaker Akinola Davies Jr’s acceptance speech.
The trailer for “Scary Movie 6” is getting terrible reviews for its anti-woke content. The sixth installment in the Scary Movie film series spoofs horror movies like “Get Out”, “Saw,” “Sinners” and “M3GAN.”
The movie is directed by Michael Tiddes and written by comedy brothers Marlon Wayans, Keenan Ivory Wayans and Shawn Wayans.

In addition to the Wayans brothers and their sister, Kim, Scary Movie 6 stars Regina Hall, Anthony Anderson, and Anna Faris.
The loudest complaints about the trailer are on Reddit.com, where one Reddit user called the trailer “aggressively unfunny”.
Another user wrote: “Some of these jokes are ripped straight from the Facebook comment section.”
A third person commented: “So weird [because] isn’t Marlon’s child trans…”
One groan-inducing scene featured Ghostface in M3GAN drag stabbing a character on a subway train. A woman sitting nearby yells, “He stabbed her!”
The “victim” turns to the woman and snaps, “Not her! My pronouns are they/them! ‘He stabbed them!'”
In a Christmas scene, children unwrap gifts to find severed human body parts inside. A little Black girl picks up a man’s severed scrotum.

Marlon Wayans said his horror film cancels the cancel culture.
“We’re gonna do what we always do. We’re gonna make fun of everybody because we’re equal opportunity offenders,” Marlon told Entertainment Weekly. “We have a recipe, we have a formula that you can’t mimic or copy. You could try, but it’s very specific. It’s how we grew up, and it’s how we see the world. It’s the household we were raised in with the sense of humor that we all were governed with, that we inherited from our mother.”
He continued, “This is about bringing back comedy the way it used to be. And I think the only way to do it is you have to cancel the cancel culture.”
