PnB Rock, a Philadelphia-based rapper who is best known for his hit song “Selfie”, has pleaded guilty to charges of drug and firearm possession linked with a 2019 arrest in Bensalem, officials said Tuesday.

In January 2019, after Bensalem Township cops obtained a search warrant for Allen at an apartment on Konefal Street in Bensalem, he was detained.

According to the police, during their search they discovered five pounds of marijuana, scales, and packaging material in the apartment. They also unearthed over $33,000 in cash. San Antonio Police Department found a Glock handgun in 40 caliber that was reported stolen during the raid.

In 2019, Stephanie Sibounheuang and Allen were both arrested. In 2019, he pleaded guilty to possessing a prohibited drug. He was sentenced to six months of probation. PnB Rock pled guilty to one count of possession with the intent to distribute and another charge of receiving stolen property. He has been sentenced to 36 months on each count and he has been ordered to perform 100 hours of community service. His sentences will be served at the same time.

This is the first time the two have made a colabo, but if Cardi’s previous record or collabs is any indication, it will certainly be a hit.

Lizzo surprised everyone, including Cardi B, when she announced the special guest of her upcoming single “Rumors”.

Cardi B, who was wearing a pink cap, answered the phone sleepily, visibly surprised.

She posted a video of the encounter on her social media page calling Cardi B and its caption reads:

“GRAND RISING MUTHAF—ASSSSS…. GUESS WHOS HOPPIN ON ‘RUMORS’ W/ ME?!?”

Cardi was last seen on Normani’s “Wild Side” and of course had a summer hit with Megan Thee Stallion last year with “WAP”.

Jessie J Apologizes To Nicki Minaj After Misunderstanding ‘Bang Bang’ Story

August 10, 2021/0 Comments/in Celebrities, Gossip, Uncategorized /by StevennewBlogger1

Jessie J apologized to Nicki Minaj after sharing a seemingly bogus report about how Nicki appeared on her 2014 hit “Bang Bang”.

Last week, Nicki took exception to the fact that Jessie told Glamor magazine that the rapper requested to be on the track after hearing the lines from Jessie and Ariana Grande. Nicki said the record company actually asked her to perform the song.

“I’m sorry I got the story wrong all these years, I was told you heard the song and wanted to be on it by someone clearly gassing me up at the label. (Bless them and my naive a**), ”

Jessie wrote in an Instagram post over the weekend.

She also admitted that there was a “weird energy” between her and Nicki, and wondered if this could be due to a Jessie meme jokingly singing Nicki’s line in the song.

“If we can’t laugh in the lives we have been blessed with. What’s the point,” Jessie wrote. “It really isn’t that deep.”

Jessie also apologized to Ariana, saying she had no idea Ari wrote the song with Max Martin.

“I’m the first person to admit Bang Bang would NEVER have been what it was without you guys,” she said of Nicki and Ariana.

Jessie then joked that the three of them were going to have dinner together or record “Bang Bang Part Two”.

3. Missy Elliott – Net worth: $ 50 million

Number 3 is a woman whose finger is waves “Can’t Stand The Rain”, but she can stand alone in the studio as a producer among producers, man or woman. Melissa Arnette Elliot was born July 1, 1971.

Exposure Of Partners To Sexually Transmitted Diseases, R.Kelly Wants Charges Dropped

August 10, 2021/0 Comments/in Celebrities, Gossip /by StevennewBlogger1

Singer R. Kelly wants the court to dismiss allegations that he deliberately exposed two people to a sexually transmitted disease.

Singer R. Kelly faces various sex trafficking in New York City and is on trial in Illinois and Minnesota for various independent crimes. Singer R. Kelly also allegedly had sexual contact with a minor in 2006.

According to court documents TMZ received, Kelly and her legal team are attempting to dismiss the sexually transmitted disease charge by claiming that herpes is not a recognized sexually transmitted disease. He also denies the allegations.

He also clarified that the singer should not be charged with breaking New York law when he was accused of transmitting the herpes virus to two prosecutors.

Singer R. Kelly added that lawmakers had not included herpes because it “is not an acute bacterial venereal disease.” His legal team also claimed that the virus did not fall under the umbrella of STIs because of the New York State Department of health over syphilis or gonorrhea and the definition of the World Health Organization.

It is not known if the judges will drop the charges against R. Kelly.

Kelly will begin the trial on August 18 and is expected to last four weeks. In addition to the herpes charges, he faces state sex trafficking in Chicago and statewide in Illinois and Minnesota.

Potential jurors will be asked if they can be open to the case.

When asked how he was feeling, R. Kelly’s lawyer Deveraux Cannick told AFP: “Just Another Monday”.

R. Kelly, one of the biggest R&B stars of the 1990s, has been in custody since July 2019.

The New York prosecutor’s office accuses the singer – real name Robert Kelly – of leading an entourage of bosses, bodyguards and others who recruited women and girls and prepared them for sex. Prosecutors say the victims were selected at concerts and other venues.

He is said to have isolated the victims from their family and friends and forced them to call him “daddy”.

Kanye West Cuts Ties With Controversial DaBaby

August 10, 2021/0 Comments/in Celebrities, Gossip /by StevennewBlogger1

It seems very likely that Kanye West is trying to distance himself from the previously discredited rapper DaBaby. Kanye has a single with DaBaby removed from a number of streaming platforms.

Kanye has removed his remix of the song Nah Nah Nah, which features rappers DaBaby and 2 Chainz, from Spotify, Apple and Tidal Music, among others. The music video for the song is still available on YouTube. His action is not completely out of the blue. DaBaby was previously discredited by the homophobic statements he made during a concert. During a show at a festival in Miami, the rapper asked everyone in attendance to turn on their cell phones except gays “having sex in parking garages” or those who are HIV-positive. He also claimed that people with HIV ‘die within two or three weeks’.

In a now-deleted Instagram post, DaBaby apologized for the homophobic statements. DaBaby was removed from the line-up of the American festival Lollapalooza after his statements. Celebrities such as Elton John, Dua Lipa and Madonna also disapproved of his comments.

The Nah Nah Nah remix was Kanye’s most recent single, who is about to release his new album Donda. The release of his new record was delayed twice because Kanye missed the deadline. Fans can pre-order Donda through Apple Music. It now states that the album will be released on August 13. Whether that is correct is not clear. The rapper has not yet confirmed the new date.

After Ben Affleck (48) and Jennifer Lopez (52) vacationed in the south of France and then Italy in recent weeks, the two have now reunited in Los Angeles. Ben had flown home before and now J-Lo is back in California too. This reports ‘TMZ’.

Ben and Jen dined in Beverly Hills at the Olivetta restaurant, to retain a little more Italian flair. Prior to their vacation, the singer would have intensively searched for a school for her twins Max and Emme (13) in the area, after living in Miami for years. This would indicate that Jennifer is moving to the American west coast, to make a new start with Ben.

Lopez was also seen several times with a real estate agent looking at villas in Los Angeles. It is not known whether she will buy a possible new house with Affleck.
