Outspoken Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett rebuked rapper Nicki Minaj for consorting with the enemy (in her mind).

Texas Representative Jasmine Crockett (a Democrat) criticized Nicki in a recent rant, accusing her of “selling out” to President Donald Trump and the conservative movement.

“I just don’t do sellouts, especially in this moment,” Crockett told TMZ during a street interview on Tuesday, Feb. 3. “Things are too serious. There are too many people that are being harmed.”

Crockett said she’s always been a Cardi B stan. She insists Nicki is a “sellout” for cozying up to the Trump administration when she’s an immigrant just like the people Trump deports daily.

Crockett said:

“I don’t know if it’s because she’s looking for some [immigration] papers for people, or if she’s looking for them other [pardon] papers. ‘Cause I hear she got family members that’s got a little, you know, a few little issues, right? Maybe she need those other papers, ’cause [Trump] love to hand those out – usually at a cost.”

When asked if people can divorce the art from the artist, Crockett said people are able to do that – but she’s not one of them. She doesn’t want to put money in Nicki’s pocket by supporting her music or the platform Nicki uses to espouse her political beliefs that Crockett doesn’t approve of.

The Texas Rep. also didn’t approve of Nicki attending Erika Kirk’s Turning Point USA event in December.

TMZ notes that Nicki isn’t included in Turning Point USA’s Super Bowl Halftime show to take the spotlight away from Bad Bunny’s official Super Bowl Halftime show on Sunday, Feb. 8.

Crockett thinks she knows why Nicki isn’t performing during TPUSA’s Halftime show.

“She may now understand her place…” she said.

Rapper GloRilla’s stud sister Scar Face Woods (left) put her on blast for not helping the family financially.

In a Facebook video, Scar Face said their mom is still working at FedEx – while GloRilla helps her friends out financially.

She called GloRilla out for not helping her family pay their bills. GloRilla and Scar Face have 8 siblings.

“Y’all favorite rapper ain’t sh*t and I’m getting tired of it,” Scar Face said.

“Y’all mad. F-k y’all talking ’bout she ain’t obligated. How the f-k she ain’t obligated when she gon’ sit here in all them interviews and talk about all the struggles we been though and ain’t reach back and help none of us out.”

In a Facebook post, Scar Face asked GloRilla (real name Gloria Woods) why the media hasn’t seen her 9 siblings.

Scar Face wrote: “And don’t say ’cause you protecting us ’cause we still in Memphis. It’s ’cause you talk about our struggles and you don’t [f-k with us]!!!! Na let’s clock it.”

GloRilla launched her rap career with her 2022 single “F.N.F. (Let’s Go)” featuring the lyrics, “I’m F-R-E-E, f-k nigga free”.

Her second single, “Tomorrow”, became her first top-ten hit on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and went double platinum.

GloRilla was nominated for a Grammy Award and signed with fellow Memphis rapper Yo Gotti’s record label, Collective Music Group.

GloRilla’s 2024 singles, “Yeah Glo!” and “Wanna Be” (ft. Megan Thee Stallion), both landed in the top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

Fans say the Memphis native has undergone extensive plastic surgery to look less like her siblings.

President Donald Trump criticized CNN anchor Kaitlan Collins during a tense verbal exchange in the Oval Office on Tuesday, Feb. 3.

Trump told Collins she doesn’t smile enough when she questioned him about his former pal Jeffrey Epstein.

“You are the worst reporter. CNN has no ratings because of people like you,” Trump told Collins when she asked him about Epstein’s victims.

Trump continued, “You know she’s a young woman — I don’t think I’ve ever seen you smile. I’ve known you for 10 years. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a smile on your face. You know why you’re not smiling? Because you know you’re not telling the truth.”

When Collins continued to press Trump about the files, he responded, “I think it’s really time for the country to get onto something else.”

This isn’t the first time Trump voiced his displeasure with Collins.

He called her “stupid and nasty” in December 2025, and in November on board Air Force 1, he told another female reporter, “Quiet! Quiet, piggy.”

Late night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel rebuked Trump for telling a reporter to smile.

“I’m trying to think of a worse time to tell a woman to smile more than when that person is a reporter asking about the Epstein victims,” he said Tuesday.

Maria Shriver, ex-wife of former California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, wrote on X (Twitter), “In years past, this sort of behavior would have been unimaginable from a president of the United States. Unimaginable… The press is being attacked in public and private. Having a free press is critical to our democracy.”

Amazon pulls ‘Melania’ from theater that mocked first lady on marquee

Amazon pulled the nation’s No. 3 movie “Melania” from a theater in Oregon due to jokes mocking first lady Melania Trump on the marquee.

Melania raked in $8 million at the box office – the strongest box office sales for a documentary in a decade.

According to The Oregonian, Amazon pulled the movie out of a theater in Lake Oswego, Oregon, following complaints from moviegoers about the movie marquee.

The Lake Theater and Cafe marketed the movie on the marquee: “Does Melania wear Prada? Find out Friday” and “To defeat your enemy, you must know them. Melania starts Friday.”

Theater manager Jordan Perry said he received a call from Amazon asking him to stop showing the movie at his theater.

“The studio was not happy and/or did not appreciate my take on marketing their film to our own public,” Perry told The Oregonian.

Perry changed the message on the marquee to read: “Amazon called. Our marquee made them mad. All Melania showings cancelled. Show your support at Whole Foods instead.”

Perry also noted on Instagram that he received backlash from local moviegoers who were upset the theater was screening Melania in the first place.

“Before then, we got countless emails and voicemails and Google / Yelp reviews wondering why the hell we had Melania here, or disdaining our disparaging of her. Now that it’s prematurely over, the plug pulled on us not from public outcry (always listening, thank you) but by some corporate executive (fair enough, sorry AMZN, please don’t cancel my Prime).”

Lil Jon’s only son Nathan Smith, aka DJ Young Slade, has been reported missing in Milton, Georgia.

The Milton Police Department issued a missing persons alert on Tuesday, saying the 28-year-old DJ ran out of his home on foot and hasn’t been seen since. The police department said he doesn’t have a phone, and he may be disoriented.

A rep for Lil Jon tells TMZ, “The family is asking for privacy at this time. We are also asking for continued prayers for Nathan to come home safe. Thank you.”

Nathan is Lil Jon’s son with his estranged wife, Nicole Smith.

In a 2014 interview with The Huffington Post, Lil Jon was proud that his son followed in his footsteps as a DJ.

“When my son graduated from DJ academy, I teared up to see him following in my footsteps,” he said.

In addition to Nathan, Lil Jon is father to a daughter named Nahara with his girlfriend Jamila Sozahdah. They celebrated the baby’s first birthday in November 2025.

Lil Jon, 55, is best known for rap hits including “Yeah!” by Usher, “Get Low,” “Snap Yo Fingers” and “Turn Down for What.”

He also produced “Freek-a-Leek” by Petey Pablo, “Goodies” by Ciara, and “Salt Shaker” by Ying Yang Twins.

Prior to launching his rap career, Lil Jon worked as Executive Vice President of A&R and producer for Jermaine Dupri’s So So Def Records in Atlanta.

Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos said Savannah Guthrie’s missing mother Nancy Guthrie is “still alive.”

Nancy, 84, was last seen at her $1 million Tucson, Arizona home when her daughter, Annie Guthrie and Annie’s husband, Tommaso Cioni dropped her off around 9:45 p.m. on Saturday, Jan. 31.

Nanos told Page Six that Nancy was taken from her home “against her will” in the middle of the night.

Sheriff Nanos said he believes Nancy is still alive and present.

“We have nothing else to go on but the belief that she is here,” Nanos said in a new interview with NBC’s Liz Kreutz. “She’s present. She’s alive, and we want to save her.”

Nanos probably has reason to believe she’s alive because her pacemaker is still sending data to her doctor’s office.

Nanos previously said her pacemaker disconnected from her Apple Watch around 2 a.m. on Sunday.

Pacemakers are devices implanted under the skin that sends electrical impulses to the heart to maintain a regular heart rhythm.

The pacemaker communicates remotely with the doctor’s office to help the staff monitor the patient’s heart. The pacemaker can also indicate that a patient has died.

Sheriff Nanos said in a press conference on Tuesday that authorities are working “hundreds of leads” in the case, but no suspect has been identified.

Investigative reporter Ashleigh Banfield said Nancy’s son-in-law Tommasso Cioni was a suspect. Tomasso is married to Nancy’s eldest daughter, Annie Guthrie.

The FBI served a search warrant at Annie’s Tucson home on Tuesday.

Banfield said “Today” show host Savannah Guthrie was in Annie’s home during the 2-hour search. Savannah is reportedly staying with Annie and her husband.

Law enforcement officials, including FBI agents and local sheriffs, were seen leaving Annie’s home with evidence bags.

Officials didn’t comment on what they found, but Banfield quoted an unidentified police source who said two surveillance cameras were found smashed inside Annie Guthrie’s home.

Cardi B is planning a $1.2 million blowout celebration for her boyfriend Stefon Diggs at the Super Bowl on Sunday, Feb. 8.

Stefon and his New England Patriots face off against the Seattle Seahawks in Super Bowl 60 at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California on Sunday.

Cardi B is sparing no expense for her $1.2 million celebration if the Patriots win their 7th Lombardi Trophy.

“She’s incredibly excited and fully locked in,” a source told the UK Sun. “This isn’t just about attending the game — it’s about showing up for her man in the biggest way possible and celebrating with everyone they love.”

Page Six reports the “Bodak Yellow” rapper has invited 100 friends and family to the Bay Area to watch the big game. She splurged $125,000 on tickets for 40 lucky guests to be in a private suite at Levi’s Stadium. She also spent between $700,000 and $725,000 on tickets for her other guests to sit in the stands.

The rapper will spend $8,000 for dedicated staff to serve food and drinks to her guests. The drinks alone will cost around $100,000.

Cardi also chartered a private plane to fly everyone to the Bay Area to watch the big game.

BACKGRID

“She’s covering most of the expenses herself because she wants him to feel supported and celebrated,” the source said. “She keeps saying this might never happen again, so why hold back?”

The source continued: “She wants this to be the party of a lifetime — for him, for their families, for everyone who came out to support them. She truly believes they deserve it.”

Stefon has been busy playing on and off the field. He has a total of 8 children by 5 women.

He welcomed four children with 4 different women in 2025, including a son with Cardi, who was born last November.

He also welcomed 2 children in 2024 and he has another child on the way. His eldest daughter was born in 2016.

Cardi B supposedly warned him to be more discreet while chasing skirts.

“She’s been very clear with Stefon: if he messes up, if another woman comes forward with a baby after they became official and started a family together, she’s done,” an insider told The Sun.

Rap mogul Jay-Z silenced bloggers after his name turned up in the DOJ’s 3.5 million documents dump connected to the late financier Jeffrey Epstein.

Jay-Z’s camp sent take-down notices to blogs such as The Shade Room and others that reported Jay-Z’s alleged link to the Epstein files.

The Shade Room quickly deleted the post about Jay-Z. But social media users accused the Instagram blog of covering up for Beyoncé’s husband.

Now a 2017 video has resurfaced on X (Twitter) that shows Jay-Z with Hollywood outcast Harvey Weinstein, who is currently incarcerated at Rikers Island in New York City.

Weinstein was convicted of s*xual assault and is awaiting more trials on similar charges.

In the 2017 video, a reporter asked Jay-Z about President Donald Trump and mass incarceration.

“Not gonna answer that,” Jay-Z said while shaking his head and backing away from the reporter.

Weinstein then stepped in to shut down the reporter. “You know what, this is a labor of love for Jay, and as a result he’s my friend. We’re here to talk about that and nothing else.”

Photo of Jay-Z posts

The Breakfast Club co-host Charlamagne roasted the “un-serious journalists” who covered Jay-Z’s alleged link to the Epstein files. He noted the information came from a tip to the FBI by “some random person” in 2019.

“They aren’t backed by court findings, indictments, confirmed evidence. If you actually read the stories, they just simply don’t make any sense,” he said.
