Are T.I. & Tiny Headed for Divorce Because of Floyd Mayweather? Source Says Couple’s Marriage Has Hit a “Rough Patch”
The ongoing feud between T.I. and Floyd Mayweather may be causing trouble in T.I. and Tiny’s marriage. Reports that couple is divorcing have spread since Floyd and Tip have traded a few jabs online over the past few days.
Though a rumor suggested Tip had filed for divorce after a video of Tiny and Floyd dancing surfaced, Gossip Cop has confirmed this is not true. However, the site says Tip and Tiny’s relationship has hit a “rough patch.”
A source says T.I. was “not thrilled about what happened” regarding the leaked video, but “plans for divorce is not on the table.”
“They are always up and down. They’re as much together and apart as they’ve always been. At the end of the day, they’re ride or die.”
The source even stated the couple still live together. For quite some time, reports have claimed the couple lives apart in separate houses. The source attempted to explain they stay at different homes on any given day simply because T.I. owns multiple properties.
Divorce may not be on the table just yet, but problems in their marriage clearly exists. Since the Floyd/Tip drama earlier this week, Tiny has thrown shade at her husband on social media. She has liked several memes that can only be seen as direct hits towards T.I.

Is Evelyn Lozada Joining The Real? “Huge Announcement” Tease on Instagram Sparks Speculation
Has The Real finally found a fifth co-host to replace Tamar Braxton? While it’s not official (yet), this actually may be the case. And the lucky woman to (possibly) join the “girl chat” conversations is… Evelyn Lozada!
Lozada got people talking after she informed fans she has a “huge announcement” coming Thursday (Dec. 1). The photo attached included The Real’s signature font & purple color scheme and white triangle background.
Current Real co-host Adrienne Bailon further fueled the speculation by liking Lozada’s post.
However, before we jump the gun, some have speculated Lozada’s impending announcement will involve going back to her reality roots. Reports suggest she is in talks to join Basketball Wives LA as a full-time cast member. Season 6 is already in pre-production and set to start filming in a few weeks.
Lozada was an original member of Basketball Wives for five seasons and has previously stated she had no intention of returning to the franchise. Lozada recently starred in her own reality show on OWN called Livin’ Lozada, which ended after just two seasons.
We don’t exactly know what Lozada’s planning to announce, but The Real seems to be involved in some way, even if it’s only the place where she will reveal the big news.
However, I have a strong feeling Tamar Braxton will have to add another name to her “unfollow” list.

Kanye West Checks Out of Hospital Following Nervous Breakdown, Will Need “Ongoing Psychological” Treatment
Kanye West has checked out of UCLA Medical Center and is resting comfortably at home. The rapper has spent more than a week in the hospital to receive treatment for “exhaustion” and “sleep deprivation,” while many believe he suffered a nervous breakdown.
Kanye left the hospital with Kim Kardashian and his personal physician Dr. Michael Farzam. He is resting at home but will continue to need “ongoing psychological and medical treatment.”
The rapper was rushed to the hospital Monday Nov. 21 after exhibiting bizarre behavior for several days, most notably onstage during his now-cancelled Saint Pablo Tour. The 911 call obtained by TMZ referred to the incident as a “psychiatric emergency.”
Insiders say Kanye was never held against his will and that he remained in the hospital on his own accord. However, earlier reports suggest he was getting better. Hours before he was released, Kendall Jenner told Entertainment Tonight, “Everyone is doing OK, just praying.”
The past week and half has not been easy for Kanye and Kim Kardashian. According to sources, Kim did not allow their children to see their dad while hospitalized and Kanye’s prior behavior was taking a toll on their marriage.
A source tells US magazine:
“He would be up all night ranting about things. They were fighting because he was impossible to live with… Kanye’s behavior took a huge toll on their marriage. Kim feels relieved he is getting the help he needs. She thinks this is what it will take to save him — and help their marriage.”
However, Kim was there for her husband and family when they needed her most. TMZ described a typical day for the reality stay while Kanye was receiving treatment.
EARLY MORNING
Wake up her 11-month-old and 3-year-old and give them uninterrupted attention as she feeds, clothes and nurtures them. She organizes their day by getting them off to various appointments and activities.LATE MORNING AND AFTERNOON
Kim beelines it for UCLA Medical Center where her attention becomes singular … providing emotional and various other forms of support for Kanye. Kim comforts him, deals with a slew of doctors, nurses and other health care professionals, makes medical decisions and, just as important, tries to cheer Kanye up.LATE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING
Kim books it back home where she’s there before the kids get home. She feeds them, spends time with them and tucks them into bed.LATE EVENING
We’re told she often then goes back to the hospital to spend more time with Kanye.
People close to the family tell us she hasn’t cracked at all … she’s upbeat and strong with everyone, even in the face of a pretty crappy situation.
Kanye’s mental breakdown may have been triggered by a number of factors, including the anniversary of his mother’s death and still coping with Kim’s recent Paris robbery. The story is still developing and we will keep you updated on Kanye’s recovery progress.

The Next Great Internet Debate: Giraffe Neck Ties
2016 has been a particularly contentious year. With the elections, political debates, social and racial issues, Bill Murray or Tom Hanks, and shiny vs. painted legs, many arguments have taken place online. Enemies were made, friends were lost, and we’re still no closer to solving most of these important issues.
Well, it looks like we have at least one more sneaking in before the end of the year. How would a giraffe wear a necktie?
When giraffes go to work do you think they put the tie at the top or bottom of their necks?
Asking for a friend. http://pic.twitter.com/e3cFarF75P

It appears the question has been posited by Jeremy Hammond via Twitter, and it has since sparked a back and forth across the nation with people busting out evidence (and great Paint art) to back their points.

@jeremythunder It has nothing to do with the chilled/uptight situation. It's simple. And the neck of the length shouldnt make a difference. http://pic.twitter.com/Dfcj6uA5wL

The importance of this extends far beyond just giraffes. This decision will likely end up affecting ostriches, gazelles, and (should Jurassic World ever decide to get classy) certain dinosaurs.
So, we as a nation must decide, where the hell does the tie go?

Canadian Police Threaten to Punish Drunk Drivers With Nickelback Music on the Way to Jail
Getting a DUI sucks. I know more than a couple of people who have had to deal with this (maybe I should find better friends?) and have seen firsthand the impact it can have on a person’s life.
Kicked out of school, loss of license, having your driving privileges stripped, and those are just the immediate consequences. Not to mention potential jail time and having that black mark on your record.
It’s safe to say everyone knows getting a DUI sucks, and one police department in Canada just announced they’re making it even worse with a cruel and unusual punishment.
In a message posted on Facebook, which has since been removed (shout-out to screenshots!), the Kensington Police Dept. in the Canadian province of Prince Edward Island (P.E.I.) warned that anyone caught driving under the influence will not only be subject to the normal litany of fines and punishments, but they will also be subjugated to listening to the Canadian band Nickelback while being taken to jail.
Ouch. So unless you want to be forced to listen to this on your way to jail (DISCLAIMER: Listen at Your Own Risk)…
You better find a DD or call an Uber if you find yourself in Kensington this holiday season. People shouldn’t need this kind of downright inhumane motivation not to drink in drive, but hey, if it helps keep even one person safe this year, then I support this cruel decision by the Kensington Police Department.
You hear that, David Grohl? They do serve a purpose afterall.

Tennessee Factory Workers Win $421 Million Powerball Lottery Jackpot
Everyone’s dreamt about it at least once in their life. Buying that $1 piece of paper only to wake up the next day a millionaire. For millions, it remains just that – a dream. But for a select few, that dream becomes a reality when they win the Powerball lottery.
Well, 20 factory workers at North American Stamping Group in Portland, Tennessee just became some of the select few to have that dream become a reality. The group, who has been playing together for years, came forward today to claim the $421 million Powerball jackpot.
They’ve said they will split the winnings evenly, which, if they go with the immediate cash-out option, will result in about $12.7 million per person before taxes.
“I thought it was a dream,” said Amy O’Neal, one of the amazingly lucky group members. “You never think you’re going to win this lottery, but you do it for fun.”
For Amy and her nineteen (current) co-workers, the fun’s just beginning. And while we all have our own ideas of what we’d do if we suddenly were given over $12 million dollars…
It seems most of this group have different plans. According to another member of the group, Kevin Southerland, a majority of them plan to keep working at the auto parts manufacturing plant.
“All these people have always had a heart to help people and be there for people,” he said. “We can’t do that if we don’t have any money. Now we can do more and help more. That’s going to be a lot of people blessed.”
While there’s no way in hell I’d keep my day job if I were in their shoes, you have to respect the desire to give back to the community with their newfound fortune.

Barack Obama Crushes Our Hopes, Says Michelle Will “Never Run” for President (or Any Elected Office)
Despite the outcome, the 2016 Presidential Election is finally over. In addition to Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, the other breakout star was First Lady Michelle Obama. FLOTUS left such an in impression that many are suggesting she run for president. But will she actually do it?
President Barack Obama spoke to Rolling Stone magazine the day after the election and discussed his wife’s possible political career. Unfortunately for us, the President says Michelle will “never run” for elected office.
“Michelle will never run for office. She is as talented a person as I know. You can see the incredible resonance she has with the American people. But I joke that she’s too sensible to want to be in politics.”
The President may be eating his words come 2020. I can see fuming Republicans digging into Rolling Stone archives now.
FLOTUS hit the campaign trail hard for Hillary Clinton and was one of Donald Trump’s staunchest critics, without even saying his name. Her speeches were so passionate and moving, she reminded me of 2008 Barack Obama, yet completely standing in her light and not his shadow.
Admittedly, at one point I thought, “Wouldn’t it be amazing if this First Lady becomes President after being mentored by the former First Lady?”
Barack is convinced Michelle is ready to leave campaigns and elections behind, but the couple plans to remain active in the political spectrum, particularly after the Democrats faced such a stunning defeat.
“So, I will continue to be very active, and Michelle is going to continue to be very active – and [on] the very thing that brought us here, which is our belief that when you work with people on the ground at a grassroots level, change happens.”
It will be interesting to see the Obamas’ impact and influence post-White House. Perhaps the two may even be able to accomplish more without such Republican obstructionism.
In the meantime, I still hope Michelle took notes from Hillary Clinton and is secretly developing her campaign strategy.

Did Joseline Hernandez Reveal the Name of Her Baby While Filming a Delivery Special for VH1?
We’ve questioned the paternity and even the pregnancy, but get ready because Joseline Hernandez’s baby will be here soon.
Joseline has posted several baby bump photos on social media over the past few months and the Puerto Rican Princess may have just dropped the biggest bombshell yet: the baby’s name!
While driving to an unknown location, Joseline posted a short video on Instagram claiming she was about to film a scene for her upcoming baby special (more on that in just a second). However, she might have also revealed the name of her soon-to-be first-born child.
“On my way to do the second scene for the delivery special. Little Bonnie. Puerto Rican Princess. VH1.”
Joseline clearly says “little Bonnie” in the clip. Speculation has begun to swirl that Bonnie may be the name the Love & Hip Hop Atlanta star has chosen. It has already been confirmed that she’s expecting a girl.
Bonnie is actually really cute, but also very unexpected from Shenellica Bettencourt/Joseline Hernandez/Puerto Rican Princess. Given that paternity is still up in the air as Stevie J. is preparing to take a DNA test, it’s currently unknown if the new baby will be “Bonnie Jordan” or “Bonnie Hernandez.”
Now, back to that supposed “baby special.” Joseline has hinted for months that she is documenting her pregnancy for a reality show special. However, VH1 (home of Love & Hip Hop) has not confirmed this nor does it even seem to be aware of its existence.
Still, Joseline followed her “Little Bonnie” video with posts of her shooting the aforementioned “second scene.”
Joseline is expected to give birth in January. We will keep you updated on any paternity or VH1 delivery special news.
