Queen Latiah, Viola Davis, Idris Elba, and Uzo from "Orange Is The New Black" were winners last night at the SAG Awards. SAG stands for Screen Actors Guild. Elba won two awards last night while Latifah won for her portrayal of Bessie Smith in the HBO movie, "Bessie". Congratulations to all the winners! Take that Oscars! :) Elsewhere Meek Mill is still on social media poking fun at Drake. It seems like when we thought this beef was dead Meek keeps it going. With his recently released EP and series of old pictures of Drake, look for Drake to respond again. Drake just yesterday released the song "Summer Sixteen" or at least I think that's the name of it. Speaking of Meek, 50 Cent hit the club scene over the weekend complete with his G-Unit gang and had the crowd helping him dis Meek Mill. Wow! Expect all these beefs to drag on throughout the year. Following up on that Kanye beef, he did sort of apologize for involving the kids in it. Earlier this week K...

Azealia Banks is set to release her new mixtape, "Slay-Z" on February 7 according to the rapper. The mixtape features Banks' alter ego reportedly rhyming over a slew of Jay-Z beats. Remy Ma is rumored to make a guest appearance on the mixtape. My body is certainly ready for new Azealia music! How about you? Speaking of new music, Rihanna's new album, "Anti" finally got released leaked, first via TIDAL and now its on iTunes with three extra tracks. A physical release of the album is pending.

If that's not enough new music for you, Lil' Kim has unveiled cover art for her new single, "#Mine" featuring Kevin Gates.

Blac Chyna, baby mama and former girlfriend of Tyga is dating Rob Kardashian. Tyga is dating Rob's sister, Kylie Jenner. To me this looks like a ploy for attention that is obviously working. Rob is already the black sheep of the Kardashian family and Blac Chyna just wants to be in the Kardashian clan so bad. I'm not mad at her but I am annoyed by her. In more interesting news, it seems as if Rihanna's long awaited album, "ANTI" has been finished. The question is though, do people still care about it? We shall see. Chris Brown's assault charge was thrown out. Remember the woman that said he smacked her during New Year's Eve in his hotel? This is the same woman that Chris Brown got banned from a bar I believe. Well...well until next time folks! Come back again for another dose of news and drama! Thanks for reading! :)

Chingy says he is not endorsing Donald Trump after everyone came for him on social media. My thing is this, if your for Trump then stand by your choice. Don't backtrack when you get called out on it. Mariah Carey is still technically married to Nick Cannon so she won't be getting married anytime soon. Her fiance is also still married. Hmm. Nick Cannon, however did send his congratulations. And after Keshia Knight-Pulliam of "The Cosby Show" got married to Ed Hartwell, both their exes, Lisa Wu and Big Tigger were seen celebrating at one of Lisa's events. Messsssy! R. Kelly opened up, somewhat about his marriage relationship to Aaliyah. He said how much he was in love with her and how they were best friends. He didn't exactly admit their secret union out of respect for her family. He also went on to say in the GQ magazine story that he was molested at an early age. Well that is all folks! Hope you enjoyed your weekend. Thanks for reading! :)

Meek Mill says he's in college. Anything to not to go to jail huh? Alexis Arquette, brother sister of David Arquette says Will Smith is gay! Wale and Tinashe are in the studio making new music and probably fucking. Chingy is endorsing Donald Trump and looking and sounding a fool in the process. Also Stacey Dash of "Clueless" fame says BET should not be around. Keshia Knigh-Pulliam has gotten married to Ed Hartwell of "RHOA" fame. What would be crazy is if they signed up for season 9. Meanwhile Keshia's ex-boyfriend Big Tigger is still single and pretending to be straight. Macklemore dissed Iggy Azalea is a new song. Don't know the name of it but why does everyone come for Iggy though? Iggy better go at these people on her new album. What do you think of today's news stories?
