Candace Owens and Don Lemon have both addressed what Dave Chappelle had to say about them in his new Netflix comedy special, "8:46," about George Floyd's murder and the subsequent protests, and neither of them are too upset about his comments. In his new special, which premiered at midnight on Friday (June 12th), the comedian discusses the police killing of George Floyd and everything that came after, all the while putting a few public figures on blast for how they've handled the situation. One of the targets of Dave's ire was right-wing pundit, Candace Owens, who sparked outrage recently after making disrespectful comments about George Floyd.

"Candace Owens, that rotten b*tch, she’s the worst. I can’t think of a worse way to make money. She’s the most articulate idiot I’ve ever seen in my f*cking life," Dave said, among other critiques he made about her. Candace heard that Dave had brought her up in his special, and insisted on Twitter that she wasn't offended at all.

Amanda Seales has spoken out against the controversial statement Terry Crews made on Twitter. It read "Defeating White supremacy without White people creates Black supremacy. Equality is the truth. Like it or not, we are all in this together." Reminiscent of his attempt to contradict Gabrielle Union’s claims of discrimination on America’s Got Talent, Crews is once again under fire for his comments.

“How did none of y’all tell me what Terry Crews was over there doing last night?” Seales asked her Instagram followers this morning, referring to Crews’ recent tweet.

She then took to Twitter to set the record straight.

"Just so we're clear: 1: there is no such thing as BLACK SUPREMACY. Liberation from an oppressive system is not rooted in a desire to BECOME the oppressive system," Seales started.

Seales continued her thoughts in a thread: “2: yes, there are people who attempt to measure blackness according to diff methods. My bottom line is EVERY black experience IS a black experience UNLESS it is ANTI-black.”

“3: @terrycrews tweets and previous actions are a demonstration of anti-blackness,” said Seales. “When you use yourself in any way to obstruct the truth of another black person's PRO-BLACK experience you are a coon. He did that with Gab and he's doing that with this movement.”

She concluded the thread with a fourth tweet: “4: A lotta my fellow celebs need their phones taken away and replaced with books. You're not playing a role. You're a role model. We must know our history better than we know their scripts.✊?”

Several individuals have emerged to offer criticism against Crews’ remarks. “I love you as a friend Brother Terry. But I disagree with you 100 %. No such thing as Black Supremacy. That is a tactic that Racist whites use to counteract our rebellion to their horrific treatment of us. It's called Gas lighting. Black pride isn't anti white,” tweeted @GodfreyComedian.

Even Crews’ former castmates from Everybody Hates Chris have put on statements in response to his statement on Twitter.  "I’m not trying to call you out @terrycrews. You know it’s all love always ❤️. But we’re rightfully angry right now and fed up with anyone not with our cause wholeheartedly. I don’t want to see that energy pointed your way or diverted from the cause," said @TylerJamesWill who acted the part of the main character, Chris. 

@TheOrlandoJones, who played Crews' son, tweeted,“Black supremacy? We represent 13% of US population, hold no institutional power & gaslight our coworkers. We got 99 problems and your math isn't the only 1. #StrongerTogether.”

Jeff Bezos is not budging on his belief that, yes, Black Lives DO Matter, no matter how outraged some Amazon customers may be about his stance. On Friday (June 5th), the certified richest man alive took to Instagram to issue a public response to an email he received from Macy, a woman who had recently visited the Amazon website and was disappointed to see a banner that read, “Black Lives Matter.”  

In the email, Macy, whose last name has been omitted, begins her correspondence by indicting that she found it “quite disturbing to get on the AMAZON website and see ‘BLACK LIVES MATTER.'” She then explains why she finds this offensive. “You provide services to more than millions of people,” she noted. “Including my self and the rest of my family for our business needs and personal purchases. I am for everyone voicing their opinions and standing up for what you believe in, but for your company to blast this on your website is very offensive to me and I’m sure you’ll be hearing from others. ALL LIVES MATTER!”

She finished the email with a question for Jeff: “And if it wasn’t for all these lives providing their service to you and your company, where would Amazon be today?” Jeff shared his response in the next slide, which begins by telling Macy, “I have to disagree with you.”

“‘Black lives matter’ doesn’t mean other lives don’t matter,” he wrote. “Black lives matter speaks to racism and the disproportionate risk that Black people face in our law enforcement and justice system. I have a 20-year-old son, and I simply don’t worry that he might be choked to death while being detained one day. It’s not something I worry about. Black parents can’t say the same. None of this is intended to dismiss or minimize the very real worries you or anyone else might have in their own life, but I want you to know I support this movement that we see happening all around us, and my stance won’t change.”

He finished the post with a screenshot of the Amazon website, which includes a message that reads, “Amazon stands in solidarity with the Black community.”

Tiffany Haddish gave the perfect response to all the noise about her conduct at George Floyd’s memorial service, in which she supposedly shifted the spotlight onto herself. On Thursday (June 4th), hundreds gathered at a chapel in Minneapolis to honour the late George Floyd, whose recent murder at the hands of the police set off protests across the country and around the world against police brutality and systemic racism. Many celebrities were in attendance, including rappers like T.I. and Ludacris as well as comedians like Kevin Hart and Tiffany Haddish. 

At one point during his moving speech, Rev. Al Sharpton decided to take a moment to acknowledge all the celebrity attendees. When it was brought to his attention that he forgot to mention Tiffany, it appeared that he hadn’t even realized she was present. "Is Tiffany here?" he asked, to which her muffled voice could be heard responding.

Kylie Jenner is in disbelief after Forbes reported that she is no longer a billionaire and is wrapped up in a "web of lies." Last year, Kylie was declared “The Youngest Self-Made Billionaire Ever" by Forbes after selling a stake of Kylie Cosmetics to Coty Inc., valuing her company at $1.2 billion. However, on Friday (May 29th), the business publication accused Kylie of "lying about company figures and forging tax returns," thus "exaggerating" her wealth.

Kylie later responded on Twitter to the publication's claims shortly after the piece dropped. "What am i even waking up to," she wrote. "I thought this was a reputable site.. all i see are a number of inaccurate statements and unproven assumptions lol. i’ve never asked for any title or tried to lie my way there EVER. period."

Hilary Duff has made it clear that she is appalled by the accusations that she is engaging in child sex trafficking with her own son. Over the weekend, a wild conspiracy theory spread after Hilary accidentally posted a photo of her 8-year-old son, Luca, fully nude. The actress promptly deleted the post once she was made aware, and later censored the same photo while showing her followers some family photos.

"Someone pointed out on Instagram that I did a nude of him, which I did, so we covered that up with a sticker," she explained in the video. However, some Twitter users spun the situation into "proof" that Hilary was participating in child sex trafficking, and that by sharing the nude photo in the first place, she was sending out some kind of signal to predators. It's important to note that there is absolutely no evidence of these claims.

It didn't take long for Hilary's name to start trending due to this conspiracy theory, and finally, she had to address the allegations. "Everyone bored af right now I know," she tweeted, "but this is actually disgusting." 

Doja Cat pulled a post-and-delete on Lana Del Rey's open letter to "the culture," in which the alt-pop singer singled out Doja among other female artists for getting away with certain lyrical content that she hasn't previously been afforded the freedom to explore. After posting the letter on Thursday (May 21st), Lana received a massive wave of backlash. She seemed to be insinuating that while she had received criticism over the years for supposedly "glamorizing abuse" in her music by singing about unhealthy relationships, "now" other women like Doja, as well as Ariana Grande, Camila Cabello, Cardi B, Kehlani, Nicki Minaj, and Beyoncé are being celebrated for embracing their sexuality in music.

While many came to the defense of the women named, it appears as though none of them have issued any kind of response to her statement except Doja. Shortly after Lana shared the post, Doja left a comment saying "gang sunk that dunker."

Eliza Reign, who recently proved that Future is in fact the father of her child following a strenuous paternity case, has spoken out about her lawsuit against the rapper after he tweeted a series of messages that appeared to be directed at her. After Future was finally confirmed to be Eliza’s baby daddy earlier this month, she countersued him for libel, slander, and emotional distress against his initial defamation suit that had been mostly dismissed by the judge. In her countersuit, Eliza accused Future of hurling deaths threats at her over text and even attempting to coerce her into having an abortion.

Earlier today, Future shared a number of tweets about some lessons he’s learned, warning his followers not to make the same mistakes he did and advising them to avoid “ugly girls.” The remarks appeared to be in regards to his past with Eliza, whom he did admit to having a sexual relationship with despite denying her paternity claims. Shortly after his tweet spree, Eliza issued a statement on her IG story about their legal battle, even seemingly addressing him appearing to have called her “ugly.”

“In all seriousness,” she wrote, “as women, we must stick together and stand strong against abuse of any kind. I’m not perfect. I’m a work in progress. We all are. But we all are beautiful, even when we fall short of other people’s expectations. Beauty shown the best from the inside. Don’t let no one, man or woman, make you feel less than or that you don’t deserve everything you have and pray for.”

“War is not cute,” she continued. “I don’t wanna wake up to filings and lawsuits daily. Especially over an innocent child. I miss the peace that I once had. But I also have to do what I have to do to defend myself and my children. In America, we need to get over this culture of us women accepting abuse in silence. Because you are a woman or have less fame, power, and money, you should just shut up. We are stronger than we know.” Future has yet to respond to her comments.

Ludacris has been heavy in the news, thanks to a Verzuz Instagram Live battle that went down over the weekend between the ATL OG and fellow OG, Nelly. The IG Live brought in plenty of eyeballs, and ended up sparking some debate and criticism on Luda’s side when he previewed some lyrics referencing the infamous R. Kelly.

R. Kelly has gone from certified legend to certified disgrace, with the music industry finally waking up to his many sexual assault claims– they had no choice really, considering the mounting evidence that came to light during the release of the Lifetime documentary, Surviving R. Kelly, and beyond.

During the beginning of the IG Live battle, Luda took some time to preview an unreleased collaboration with Lil Wayne. He was heard rapping on the song, “the world screwed if n*ggas pouring drinks like Bill Huxtable.” And then, “I love R. Kelly but around my daughters, I’m not comfortable.”

Following the backlash, Luda spoke to Atlanta radio station V103 on the lyric in question. In a video clip from the interview captured below, Luda clarifies, “Sometimes when you speak on records, you speakin’ like it’s just me and you having a conversation. But you just speaking, and just being honest. I saw that a lot of people kind of misconstrued or just didn’t understand what I’m saying.”

He clarifies that as much as he enjoys R. Kelly’s music, he wouldn’t tolerate the man around his children given his past. It’s as simple as that. 

Check out the clip below. In the meantime, we’re waiting on his collaboration with Eminem to come to fruition.
