    Hollywood Life explains the Robyn Rihanna Fenty wouldn’t take a side if a beef between Drake and Eminem were to actually materialize.  The singer explains that she has respect for both artists and would like to do future work with each of them.  While hip-hop fans are anxious for another epic rap battle it doesn’t look like anyone’s willing to add fuel to this fire.

    Rihanna could have been what Faith Evans was in the Biggie v. Tupac beef.  We all know how that ended so good thing she decided otherwise.  According to Harper’s Bazaar the singer continues to dominate social media in her stilettos.  Make sure you’re following her on Snapchat: Rihanna’s Snapchat name is Rihanna:

    Iron Man RiRi

    Marie Claire reports that Iron Man’s newest superhero is Riri Williams, an African American woman who is replacing Iron Man, Tony Stark.  While there’s no official word on whether the Barbados native actually inspired the character the similarities are undeniable.

    Not only are their names the same, they both overcame tragic upbringings.  Riri Williams was born shortly after her father passed away while Robyn’s childhood was deeply impacted by her dad’s addiction to drugs and alcohol.  Hopefully the singer will collaborate with Marvel to create some promotional content for the character.

    For The Win reports that NBA superstar, Carmelo Kyam Anthony has joined the “Snapchat Squad” to roast his Team USA Basketball teammates.  The New York Knicks superstar posted a video introducing Kevin Durant and Draymond Green as clowns.  He then compares DeMarcus “Boogie” Cousins to former NBA player Othella Harrington.

    According to Complex, Melo and Kyle Lowry are the two oldest players on the team’s roster.  It’s great to see the younger players keeping the older players up-to-date on technology.  There’s no way Melo would be on the image messaging app minus his tech savvy teammates.  Carmelo Anthony’s Snapchat name is CarmeloKAnthony:

    Contract

    Carmelo Anthony’s salary for the 2016-17 season is $24,559,380.  Last year, he signed a five-year contract worth $124 million.  He is the sixth highest paid player in the NBA.  His current net worth is $90 million.  With the Knicks finally recovering from mistakes like Stephon Marbury and Eddy Curry, there’s no better time for Melo to prove his worth.
    Last year, during an appearance on “The Dan Patrick Show” the small forward was asked if he thought that he was a better scorer than Stephen Curry and LeBron James.  Although both players outscored him last season Melo has a strong argument.  Those that remember his Syracuse days understand exactly why he has so much self-confidence.

    Nate Parker’s Homophobic Comments

    The YBF explains that actor, Nate Parker, and his wife, Sarah DiSanto welcomed their fourth baby girl on Thursday, August 4, 2016.  The couple named their new bundle of joy, Justice.  The 36-year-old has been working on the film The Birth of a Nation which he directs and stars in.  He plays Nat Turner, a literate slave and preacher who led a rebellion seeking justice.

    According to Ebony the Virginia native once proclaimed that he would never play a gay role to preserve the Black man.  In an interview alongside director, Gina Prince-Bythewood, the actor insulted Hollywood for feminizing the African American male on camera.  He further explained that Hollywood offers Black men roles that requires them to wear dresses and portray characters of “questionable sexuality.”

    In the two short years since the actor made the comments we watched actor Jussie Smollett all but take over the world as Empire‘s Jamal Lyon.  Jamal struggles with his father’s issues with his sexuality but doesn’t allow him to negatively influence his career.  The character proves that being a gay man does not make you less of a man.
    Comedian, Dave Chappelle made some of the most popular comments about the issue in an interview with Oprah Winfrey.  He explained that Hollywood tries to put Black actors in female attire to feminize them.  The greatest prison that people live in is the fear of what other people think.

    Bleacher Report explains that Kevin Wayne Durant told Russell Westbrook that he was leaving the Oklahoma City Thunder via text message.  Westbrook just signed a $85 million extension with OKC and KD hasn’t congratulated him.  “K-Smoove” says he’ll contact Westbrook once everything dies down.

    According to Slam KD has explained that Westbrook wasn’t a factor in his decision to join the Golden State Warriors.  Instead the Washington, D.C. native just loves the game and wants to win.  Make sure you’re following him and the rest of the Team USA Basketball “Snapchat Squad.”

    Russell Westbrook Press Conference

    Westbrook chose all the right words at his press conference, celebrating the new contract.  A reporter asked, “Did KD going to GSW sting?” Russell responded with a question of his own: “Sting for who?” leading to giggles amongst the crowd.  The 2016-17 NBA schedule will be released on Thursday, August 11, 2016.  We can’t wait to see when the Oklahoma City Thunder play the Golden State Warriors.
    After witnessing LeBron James return to the Cleveland Cavaliers and win them a NBA Championship you would think Russell and OKC would show a bit more respect to KD.  The NBA superstar could end up hating Golden State.  Just because they’re unstoppable on paper doesn’t mean it will work in reality.  OKC shouldn’t burn any bridges.

    Jimmy Butler Singing Vanessa Carlton

    After the team defeated Venezuela 80-45 they celebrated by singing Vanessa Carlton’s “A Thousand Miles.” The younger players, including Kyrie Irving and DeMar DeRozan loved the sing-along but Carmelo Anthony looked like he was annoyed.  At 32, Melo’s the oldest player on the team.
