Chrisean Rock began the painful process of removing a giant tattoo of ex-boyfriend Blueface from her face. Livestream video shows the aspiring rapper wailing as a technician removes the tattoo from her face.

“You’re halfway done,” the technician tells Chrisean. “You want a break?” “No keep going,” the rapper says through her tears.

Chrisean’s fans tried to encourage her in the comments. “You got this girl,” wrote one person.

Chrisean sometimes covered the giant tatt under makeup. But now she has erased the tattoo and her ex from her life. Watch the video.

Chrisean, 25, and Blueface, 28, share a son, Chrisean Porter, who was born on September 3, 2023.

Blueface reunited with Chrisean and their son following his release from Lancaster State Prison in California in November.

She kicked her new boyfriend to the curb, but Blueface had other plans.

He briefly dated cougar Hazel-E, 45, but she dumped him after she caught him cheating.

Now Hazel is dating a 25-year-old boytoy.

Blueface moved on with a woman named Nevaeh Akira, who recently got his name tattooed on her neck. But Blueface’s mom, Karlissa, noted her son’s name, Johnathan, is misspelled.

It’s a good thing the tattoo is in a place that only short people can see.

Naveah, 24, is an Instagram model with over 160,000 followers.

Priscilla Presley’s former business partner claims Priscilla’s granddaughter, Riley Keough (pictured), is the mother of John Travolta‘s youngest child.

Brigitte Kruse dropped the bombshell claim in a new lawsuit filed against Priscilla, Elvis Presley‘s widow.

The NY Post’s Page Six obtained court documents that allege John Travolta and his late wife, Kelly Preston, paid Riley for her eggs to conceive their son, Ben, who was born in 2010 and is now 15.

Kelly Preston, John Travolta and their children Ben Travolta and Ella Bleu Travolta are pictured at the 71st Annual Cannes Film Festival in 2018.

Kelly and John’s eldest son, Jett, died in 2009.

Kelly died in 2020 at age 57.

Brigitte alleges the Travoltas paid Riley $20,000 plus a classic Jaguar automobile for her eggs. Riley, 36, is seen in a photo dated Oct. 20, 2017.

According to the court documents, Michael Lockwood, Lisa Marie Presley’s ex-husband, told her Kelly had trouble having children.

Lisa Marie (Riley’s mother) allegedly agreed to harvest her own eggs for the IVF procedure for Kelly.

But John and Kelly allegedly changed their minds because they didn’t want eggs from a drug abuser.

Lisa Marie (pictured) had a history of drug addiction. She died in 2023 at age 54.

Brigitte claims a deal was then made to harvest Riley’s eggs, and Kelly carried the baby.

The court documents include handwritten notes that read: “CA fertility partners,” “Ben Travolta,” and “Kelly Preston carried baby,” plus texts calling Ben Priscilla’s “beautiful great-grandson.”

Priscilla (Riley’s grandmother) responded to the allegations through her attorneys.

“After losing motion after motion… Kruse and their co-conspirators have demonstrated that there is no bar too low, no ethical line they are unwilling to cross in an effort to cause further pain to Priscilla Presley and her family,” the lawyers tell TMZ.

“In a completely improper effort to exert undue pressure on Presley to retract her legitimate, truthful claims, Kruse and her co-conspirators have also sued Presley’s son, cousin, and assistant. These recent outrageous allegations have absolutely nothing to do with the claims in this case.”

Riley Keough has not responded publicly to the allegations.

Singer/songwriter Bebe Rexha is on the hunt for a rich baby daddy to father her first child.

On Wednesday, Bebe, 36, shared a post on X asking her followers for help in searching for a “baby daddy.”

“Rexhars. You have a mission. Find me a baby daddy,” she wrote.

The “Hey Mama” singer doesn’t want a broke joke. She says the candidate must be richer than her or her exact equal. “I don’t pay for men or do 50/50.”

The curvy singer posted a list of the potential baby daddy’s qualifications.

Here is what I’m looking for:
Looks: I’m ok with a 6 or 7 (personality is key for me)
Height: I don’t need someone tall just be taller than me. 5’8 and up
Job: must be successful and not a moocher. Must be richer than me or equal. (I don’t pay for men or do 50/50).

Bebe says she wants “Someone who has a good personality. Good morals and is smart and driven.”

Unfortunately, there aren’t many men that fit Bebe’s list who aren’t already off the market.

It’s slim pickings out there – especially for a woman competing with other women whose biological clocks are ticking.

Bebe’s fans wished her luck in her search for a suitable baby daddy.

One X user joked, “try using a dating app you’ll find so many good looking men there.”

Another person wrote: “Is Kevin Durant your type?”

A third person commented: “The dating pool is very cold even Rexha is asking us to help…”

Bebe is a pop superstar who has written hits for other artists. Her 2023 album Bebe spawned her hit single “I’m Good (Blue)” (with David Guetta), which peaked at no. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 and topped the charts in 22 countries.

Fawn Weaver founded Uncle Nearest to honor the formerly enslaved master distiller who taught Jack Daniel his secret to making whiskey.

Now Fawn is going viral for publicly humiliating a former classmate.

The man approached Fawn at a promotional event and introduced himself as her former classmate.

“So I’m supposed to remember you?” she asked him. She then shouted to the crowd, “OK can I tell y’all that this man just said do you remember me. I said make it make sense to me, because we were in the same class in the sixth, seventh and eighth grades!”

She looked at the man as the crowd laughed. “He’s being serious,” she continued. “Are you serious? I do not. I’m sorry. I don’t remember the sixth, the seventh, or the eighth grades.”

Cell phone video of their interaction went viral and social media users dragged Fawn for being so cruel and heartless.

Fawn responded to the backlash by posting the full video on Instagram. She captioned the video:

“CONTEXT MATTERS – Since 2017, I’ve met tens of thousands of people in public, including thousands just in the past couple of weeks. I trust those real interactions and the people who’ve experienced me firsthand. I will let that sustained truth speak for itself.

That said, I want to be clear at the outset.

I do apologize.

I’ve reached out directly to the young man in this video. Friends who were with him have shared publicly that the viral clip is out of context and that he experienced the moment as lighthearted, as I intended. Still, that does not replace hearing it from him personally.

If I hurt or embarrassed him in any way, I apologize without hesitation. Anyone who encounters me should leave feeling encouraged. If they don’t, that responsibility is mine. I take seriously what God has called me to do.

But then she backtracked and seemed to blame the man for startling her as she stopped to sign autographs.

“For context, when he approached me, I was trying to get inside where hundreds were waiting. He was inches from my face, with no greeting, no smile, and a blank expression, offering only a comment about middle school. It caught me off guard,” she wrote.

“I went to three different schools between the sixth and the ninth grade and graduated from a different one entirely. So I was startled, and so was everyone around me. Security was close, but I’ve always asked him to stand back unless I believe I’m in danger [because] I like to speak to everyone, hug everyone, make people feel seen. So instead of calling security, I tried to move us out of that moment that I couldn’t fully read, and I did that with a joke.”

Fawn’s IG followers explained it was her words and her tone that threw people off.

One person wrote: “It was the putting him on blast part that was the most embarrassing. We saw the video already; this view didn’t make it any better.”

Another person wrote: “It’s how you said it & gathered a crowd- repeated it loud & wanted others to agree so they can have a chuckle. It wasn’t funny at all, he probably had a good memory to share…”

A third person commented: “She showed who she really is. That moment was pure.”

There is no debate that Kelly Rowland was the top draw at Brandy & Monica’s “The Boy Is Mine Tour” that ran from October 16 to December 14.

The unproblematic singer showed up and showed out for her fans every night. Her showmanship and energetic performance was unmatched.

But now the tour has ended and Kelly confirms she’s back in the studio working on new music for her fans.

“I’m back in the studio… I’m very excited,” she said in a new interview with Samantha Chatman on the “Mama, I Made It” podcast.

When asked what fans can expect from the new project, Kelly acknowledged that things do change, “But one thing that’s at the heart and foundation of who I am is R&B; Rhythm and Blues and Soul. You’re always gonna get R&B and real stories and authenticity.”

She said R&B “is the core of who I am and that’s definitely what you’re gonna get for sure.”

Kelly also discussed reconnecting with her absentee father after 30 years.

When asked how their relationship is going, the Atlanta-born singer responded, “I hope I don’t sound disrespectful when I say ‘I think,’ because I was one of those people who thought I was good [growing up without a father]. But when I looked into my son’s eyes and I knew that there was more to him… If he asked me a question later, what was I going to tell him about his grandfather? I could give him everything about his grandmother. What am I gonna tell him about my father?”

Kelly’s mom, Doris Rowland-Garrison, passed away in 2014.

Woman goes viral for questioning the lack of positive Black family shows on TV

Television series featuring Black families in a positive light are scarce on network television and cable TV.

Young people are beginning to notice their families aren’t represented on TV anymore.

Black shows that once dominated the TV landscape include “Good Times,” “The Cosby Show,” “Martin,” “Sister Sister,” “Moesha,” “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air,” “Living Single,” “Family Matters,” “A Different World” and more.

A woman is going viral for questioning the lack of positive Black TV shows.

The woman said, “Why as a Black person I can turn on the TV and find not one single show that portrays my community in a positive light?”

She noted “The Cosby Show” made Black people believe they could become doctors.

She continued: “Carl Winslow is a police officer. I can go be a police officer if I want to. We don’t have not a single show that portray us in a positive light.”

She noted that the “Powerbook” series on Starz portrays Black people as “drug dealers and murderers.”

She complained that “a little Black girl can’t turn on the TV and see a momma and a daddy in a household thriving. It’s either us doing something that’s bad or it’s reality TV which is just showing Black women fight other Black women over nothing like men.”

X user @TheeGooGoo wrote: “I wonder what would happen if we stopped watching the negative stuff they put on. Are we angry enough to boycott what doesn’t serve us as a black community overall?”

@Lizmej12 tweeted: “Real af bc I grew up on the wholesome ones but just to play devils advocate, did those shows represent the reality of black America or did it paint a picture of equality that we all know doesn’t exist.”

And @THEREALSECTION8 wrote: “Willie Lynch in full effect from Tv to Radio.”

Nick Reiner made his first court appearance in downtown Los Angeles on Wednesday, December 17.

He is charged with 2 counts of first-degree murder in the stabbing deaths of his parents Rob Reiner, 78, and Michele Reiner, 68.

Nick, 32, was in shackles and wore a suicide prevention vest.

He did not enter a plea. His arraignment was postponed until Jan. 7 at his attorney’s request.

The Reiners were killed as they slept early Sunday, December 14.

Their bodies were found by their daughter, Romy Reiner, in their Brentwood home.

Nick was arrested hours later near the University of Southern California, about 14 miles away from the crime scene.

Sources say Rob and Nick had a “very loud argument” at Conan O’Brien’s Christmas party on Saturday evening. Hours later, Nick attacked his parents.

Nick struggled with drug addiction and homelessness for years.

“We’ve tried everything,” Michele Reiner previously confided in a friend.

MediaPunch / BACKGRID

The insider told TMZ that Michele and Rob were at their “wits’ end” with Nick and his drug problems.

Nick was staying in a hotel after his parents threw him out of their home.

Police completed a search of his blood-soaked hotel room. Detectives were searching for a weapon. They believe Nick disposed of the weapon after leaving his parents’ home.

A housekeeper told TMZ the hotel room shower was “full of blood” and she also found blood on the bed. She said the windows were covered with a bed sheet.

A detective said Nick “cleaned up” and “disposed of evidence” after the murders.

Surveillance video showed Nick walking to his parents’ home early Sunday, December 14, before the murders.

A separate video showed him purchasing Gatorade at a convenience store after the murders.

Rob Reiner was worth an estimated $200 million when he died.

A British news anchor apologized for saying Meghan Markle‘s mom served time in prison while Meghan was raised by her father.

On December 4, British news anchor Carole Malone, with GB News, falsely claimed that Meghan was raised by her father, Thomas Markle, while her mother, Doria Ragland, was in prison.

Carole issued a public apology to Meghan and her mom the next day.

“I apologize sincerely to Ms. Ragland and her family for any pain my comments may have caused,” Carole said. She added that she saw the “misinformation” online and she initially believed it to be true.

“On Thursday, December the 4th, 2025, I stated that Thomas Markle, the Duchess of Sussex’s father, brought Meghan up while her mother, Doria Ragland, was in prison,” Carole said on December 15.

“I believed this to be the case based on what I now understand to be misinformation I had seen online. I was questioned about the validity of this claim during the broadcast and I repeated this belief, which I now understand to be false.”

She added, “This was a genuine error. I accept what I have been told on behalf of Ms. Ragland — that she raised her daughter and that she has never been in prison or jail. I apologize sincerely to Ms. Ragland and her family for any pain my comments may have caused.”

Meanwhile, Meghan has no plans to visit her father in an ICU after he had his leg amputated.

According to the UK Express, Meghan has not heard back from Thomas after contacting him and she has no plans to visit with him.

The 81-year-old underwent surgery to amputate his left leg below the knee. He suffered from poor circulation in his leg due to a blood clot.

Dr. Neil Sanico explained they had “no option” but to amputate Thomas’ leg.

“There was a danger of gangrene setting in,” Sanico added, while also praising Thomas for being a “strong and brave man.”

Thomas has been estranged from Meghan since 2018 when he was caught staging paparazzi photos for money ahead of her wedding to England’s Prince Harry.

Thomas suffered a heart attack just six days before the wedding ceremony in May 2018.

“My love for you has grown even deeper,” she continued. She added that she will “forever cherish having you as my best friend and protector.”
