La La Anthony Wishes Carmelo A Happy Birthday With Hilarious Gambling Story

La La Anthony wrote a birthday message for her estranged husband, Carmelo Anthony, in which she recalled the first time they went to Vegas together.

Although the status of La La and Carmelo Anthony’s marriage is still up in the air, the possibly estranged spouses can still wish each a friendly happy birthday. On Friday (May 29th), La La penned a loving birthday message for Carmelo on Instagram, accompanied by a photo of the NBA player at a young age. In the post, La La tells Carmelo how special he is to her, possibly hinting that they’ve grown closer again since living in quarantine together. She also tells the story of the first time they went to Vegas together.

“Happy Birthday @carmeloanthony,” she wrote. “I met you when u were 20 yrs old lying to me telling me you were 21 until we went to Vegas & your ass couldn’t gamble ‼️ Today you were blessed to celebrate 36 years young. Time flies for real..it’s so crazy‼️ Thank you for being a blessing in our lives. I love you.” Since La La is nearly three years older than Carmelo, at the time that they met, she would have likely already been 23 years old.

In the comments, Carmelo received a ton of birthday wishes from folks like Ciara, Fat Joe, Khloe Kardashian, Angie Martinez, and many more. “HBD Mel!! Love you bro!” Ciara wrote. “HAPPY BORNDAY MEL!” commented Kelly Rowland.

Recently, Kelly Rowland popped up on Live in a split-screen with KeKe Palmer. The two talked all about sex and Kelly wanted to know what curiosities KeKe had about intercourse before losing her virginity. “I’ll be honest, and this is gonna sound so stupid to everybody that’s watching but I think a lot of people have this question,” KeKe said. “I didn’t understand penetration because I had never had sex.” KeKe laughed at herself for even saying it out loud. “I didn’t understand that penises got hard ’cause I never seen one. So, before sex, I just kept wondering, how do people have sex? The penis is just flat.”

Kelly couldn’t help but laugh at KeKe, but the talk show host didn’t seem to mind as she chuckled at herself, as well. Check out KeKe revealing her childhood confusion below and let us know if you can relate.

“Hit it from the back or missionary?” Kelly asked Lala. “Um, so wait. Is that a question for me or is that a question for everybody watching?” Lala answered. The “Coffee” singer replied with a laugh, “Either or, darling.” Lala gave an answer and said, “Hit it from the back. I think that missionary is, and can be, boring as hell and I think if you only do missionary then I’m going to consider you a very lazy person. It’s the easy way out. Flip that thing round, now we talkin’.”

Then, someone in the comments wrote that they prefer “from the side” as a sex position option. Kelly Rowland enthusiastically agreed and said, “Just the thought of it is…that’s great.” The singer added that she’s a “ride or die chick,” insinuating that she likes to be on top during sex. “I’m a f*cking rider,” Kelly added.

LaLa & Carmelo Anthony Are Quarantining Together

Lala Anthony confirms that she and her estranged husband Carmelo Anthony are in quarantine together with their son.

Quarantine is bringing people together, apparently, including estranged spouses. LaLa and Carmelo Anthony have surely had their ups and downs as a couple in the public eye but it appears that they’re together again in quarantine. In a recent interview, LaLa Anthony told Access Hollywood Daily that she and her family quickly left from the East Coast to Los Angeles after the coronavirus pandemic including Melo.

“I’m on the West Coast. I have a bunch of my family with me. My son, obviously, is here. I was in New York, and I just felt like it was time to get out of New York,” she said. “I grabbed some of my nieces, family members, Kiyan — and we came out west to do this quarantine together. Melo — he’s here somewhere.”

Though the two were spotted together on Christmas, there was no confirmation that they are back together, nor did she necessarily confirm that in this interview. At the end of the day, for both Melo and Lala, it’s all about their son.

“It has actually been smooth sailing,” she said. “And to see my son so happy, even in the midst of what’s going on in the world; to me is what’s important and what matters to me. I feel really great about that.”

Kelly Rowland Tells LaLa Anthony About Her Favorite Sex Toys

Kelly Rowland doesn’t usually talk so openly about her private life, but she shared a few of her favorite sex toys that keep things interesting in the bedroom.

She’s not one to share too much about her personal life, but we learned a little bit more about Kelly Rowland on Wednesday (April 8). The private Destiny’s Child singer keeps much about her marriage and home life under wraps, so it was surprising to hear her speak candidly about a few of her favorite sex toys. This COVID-19 pandemic has us all quarantined at home, so many celebrities are coming up with ways to keep fans entertained all the while escaping boredom themselves. Kelly Rowland linked up with her good friend LaLa Anthony on Instagram Live and during their casual conversation, the topic of bedroom toys came up.

Kelly’s immediate interest had LaLa chugging Ciroc out of the bottle. After Kelly admitted that she’d “already had four” drinks herself, she mentioned one toy that has seemed to treat her right. “You know the little rings that goes around…,” Kelly said as she trailed off while making an “O” shape with her finger. You can use your imagination to figure out what she was talking about. “That’s so nice.”

LaLa mentioned that someone in the comments said that men aren’t open to using sex toys in the bedroom because they don’t want to accept that a woman can handle business without them. “You can always have a warmup, a brief warmup,” Kelly added. “And then have them watch your brief warmup and then have them join you.”

LaLa couldn’t help but laugh at her friend’s honesty before telling her, “You’re a freak.” Watch Kelly Rowland talk about her kinks below.

"Power" Recap: Tommy’s Episode Is The Most Revealing Yet

Another suspect off the table.

SPOILERS AHEAD.

Tommy and Ghost have been boys since day one, which is why their time as enemies has been so dramatic. This week's episode of Power mends the relationship between the two brothers, and also gives fans a hint as to who shot Ghost. Entitled "It's All Your Fault," the thirteenth episode of the season focuses on Tommy. After last week's somewhat slow episode, this week Courtney Kemp and 50 Cent deliver the strongest episode mid-season yet. "It's All Your Fault" begins back at the moment that Tommy kills Proctor's cousin Benny. At this time, Tommy has one goal in mind: Kill Ghost.

Tommy disposes of the body very easily, but Benny's disappearance worries Elisa Marie and her guardian, Aunt Dolores. Proctor's family was apparently mob royalty, which leaves Elisa Marie in the care of some very dangerous people. This works to her advantage though. Dolores and Vincent have a meeting where the former accuses the latter of offing Benny. In order to save face, Vincent gives Dolores two bodyguards and promises to get to the bottom of things. Elisa Marie, being a smart young girl, monitors all the mob talk and also listens to the recording her dead father left her. Dolores walks in just as the recording gets good, and the two ladies have a bonding moment. Dolores fills Elisa Marie in on the truth of the family, and Elisa identifies Tommy as the voice on the tape. This sets in motion the motivation behind Tommy leaving town, which we saw at the end of the last episode.

Elisa Marie and Dolores take the recording to Tariq, who denies knowing anyone named Tommy and Ghost. His slick act doesn't work on Dolores, who puts two and two together and quickly calls Tariq out for helping Tommy kill Proctor. Elisa Marie tries to defend Tariq, but Dolores isn't buying it. She's a smart woman, because moments later Tariq runs to Tommy, alerting him of the recording. Tariq's movements seem shadier than usual in this episode and the further we get into the show, the more guilty he begins to look.

Tommy heads over to Truth to presumably kill Ghost for murdering Lakeisha and shutting down his base of operations. His plan is foiled, but before he can exit the area Blanca approaches him. The law enforcement officer hands Tommy Lakeisha's belongings, and Mr. Egan immediately identifies Tasha's earring in the bag. Putting the pieces together rather quickly, Tommy heads over to Tasha's apartment to kill her. Their confrontation is brief, with Tasha admitting to killing Lakiesha within seconds. She gets Tommy to read the papers his deceased lover signed to snitch on him, and reminds him that all her bags were packed in the house. Tommy almost kills her, but decides to let her live at the last moment. This scene is crucial to Tommy's relationship with Ghost. After he realizes that Ghost did not kill his girl in revenge for killing Angela, Tommy begins to make a 180-degree turn.

Viewers are brought back to the scene of Tommy and Ghost meeting up, somewhat reconciling, and then getting shot at. Tommy discerns that Ghost did not know about the recording Proctor kept either, which is another moment that helps him rebuild trust with his frenemy. After fleeing the scene and escaping a still unknown third party trying to kill Ghost, Tommy heads to Dolores' house to seize the audio recording. He kills the guards, kidnaps Elisa Marie, and proceeds to pry her for more information. Tommy, who was raised in a harsh environment, ends up empathizing with the daughter of the man he murdered. Elisa Marie vents about her drug addict mother and protective father, and asks Tommy if he killed Proctor. Tommy won't admit his guilt, but his non-answer is an answer enough for the sharp young girl. While Tommy is interrogating Elisa Marie, 2Bit calls and confirms that it was Dre, not Ghost, who snitched out his operation to the police. This is the final moment of revelation for Tommy, who decides he needs to reconcile with Ghost. Tommy brings Elisa Marie back to Dolores, unharmed, and goes to speak with Tariq.

When Tommy tells Tariq that Ghost is innocent of these crimes, the younger St. Patrick cares not. Tariq tells Tommy that he believes Dre is trying to kill Ghost, but he refuses to help. If his father dies, he will not be the man to try to stop the situation. The grim outlook from Tariq makes him look suspicious, or at least complicit, in the murder of his father. Couple that with the scene last week where Tasha doesn't answer Paz when asked who killed Ghost, and it makes things seem like Tasha and Tariq had a hand in Ghost's undoing. After leaving Tariq behind, Tommy attempts to get to Truth to save Ghost from his fate. Unfortunately, Vincent catches up with Tommy and a shootout occurs. Tommy murders the Italians, giving Vincent a particularly gruesome death, and speeds off to Truth.

Here is our heartbreaking moment: Tommy arrives too late. He walks in to find a dying Ghost, bleeding on the floor, and he looks up to get a clear look at the killer-- the camera remaining closely on Tommy's visage. Tommy looks shocked, he clearly recognizes the killer but a dying Ghost tells him to "let it go." This is a very important moment. Whoever the killer is, for Tommy to allow them to live means he has some type of love or connection to the shooter. Ghost telling Tommy to "let it go" means the dying St. Patrick doesn't want his killer to die either. That makes Tariq a prime suspect at this point, since Tommy would have extra incentive to kill Tasha, considering he let her live in an earlier scene. It couldn't possibly be Saxe, because Tommy would shoot him immediately. Ghost dies in Tommy's arms, also ridding any hope viewers had that he was still alive. The episode wraps with Tommy being viciously shunned by his grieving mother, who gifts him with a present from Ghost's will before she writes him off as the killer. Tommy takes what he's given, clears his apartment, and heads on the road. First though, he meets up with Elisa Marie, who gives him the last of the recordings. Next, Tommy kills Spanky after a tip from 2Bit about his snitching ways. It's good to see Tommy make it to the end alive, driving out into the sunset as it were, but this episode raised just as many questions as it answered. It's a fitting end to Tommy's storyline, and gives enough room for him to appear in the spinoff series. The reconciliation and moment of fate between he and Ghost was an integral moment for the final season. We're one step closer to finding Ghost's killer.
