“My (current) tour is sold out, 125k tickets sold all on my own… Packed from the front to the back & not a single lyric goes unsung,” she wrote. “It’s really something, u should see it in person. I thank God for it everyday. I’ve been able to support myself and my entire family by simply being myself. My sister is my manager, my cousin is my assistant. My fans (friends) have grown with me and related to me in ways that I never thought were possible.”

From there, she brought up how the criticism has affected her in the past. “I can’t believe I actually let your negative opinions bother me years ago when you all tried convincing me that what’s for me isn’t for me,” she wrote. “I’m actually most flattered when I hear ‘oh I’ve heard that song, I like that song, but never knew what she looked like…’ However, I find it most amusing when people who don’t know me call me dumb, or just a pretty face, when in actuality, it requires much intellect & creativity to take a small seed and grow it to what it has become. Very fruitful to say the least. God bless!”

The comment comes after one post from Feminista Jones went particularly viral on X (formerly Twitter). It showed Mariah performing in Virginia Beach, with Jones adding: “What the actual hell. No way she gets away with this if she’s dark skinned.”

Backlash to her ongoing tour isn’t the only reason Mariah The Scientist has been dragged into headlines as of late. She and her fiancé, Young Thug, have also been dealing with tons of rumors related to their relationship as well. Thug even had to deny allegations of being unfaithful in a recent post on X.

Black and blue dominate as the main colors creating a sleek, premium aesthetic across the car. Smooth gradient transitions flow beautifully from black to gold across the vehicle’s body panels. Bold red accents pop in key spots adding energy and visual excitement to the design.

These red touches tie directly back to iconic Air Jordan styling from the brand’s history. The famous Jumpman logo stands out prominently on multiple areas of the race car clearly.

Subtle nods to Michael Jordan’s legacy appear throughout the scheme connecting basketball and racing cultures. The design feels modern yet rooted in sneaker culture history that spans four decades. Fans have praised this as one of the sharpest Jordan-themed NASCAR paint schemes ever created.

The simple, stylish execution perfectly suits Reddick as he chases history at Phoenix this weekend. Tyler Reddick and 23XI Racing just completed a historic three-peat of championship victories recently. He’s now attempting an unprecedented fourth consecutive win to open the 2026 NASCAR season impressively.

23XI Racing continues demonstrating why they lead NASCAR in creative, culture-crossing paint scheme designs regularly. Michael Jordan’s ownership brings authentic basketball DNA to every visual element the team produces.

This Phoenix scheme represents the combination of motorsports performance and sneaker culture aesthetics perfect.

The black to gold gradient is absolutely gorgeous and feels very premium luxury car. Those bold red Jumpman accents create perfect pops of color against the darker base. 23XI Racing consistently delivers the best-looking paint schemes in NASCAR without question every week.

The Jordan Brand connection gives them access to legendary colorways and design inspiration constantly. This scheme feels like it could be an actual Air Jordan colorway translated to racing. Black and blue with red accents is classic Jordan Brand DNA from the beginning.

Tyler Reddick chasing a 4th straight win in this car would be legendary. The sneaker culture crossover makes NASCAR way more interesting for younger fans honestly.

“I’m beyond disappointed, but right now I need to prioritize my health and recovery to prevent any further complications,” Monaleo wrote in one statement. “I have been working really hard – 25 shows in and I give 110% for every single one. As for the rest of the tour, it’s honestly going to be a day-by-day process. I’m listening to my doctors and taking it one step at a time.”

Monaleo’s “Who Did the Body” Tour

In another post, she revealed that she had to undergo emergency surgery after developing an “inflamed cyst” that caused abdominal bleeding. “Had to have emergency surgery and unfortunately lost an ovary and fallopian tube in the process :(“ she wrote. “Still hospitalized here in memphis waiting to be released so i can get back home and recover.” She added that fans will be able to get refunds for their tickets.

“I’m not sure how long this healing process will take,” she continued. “I do want to say this though: listen to your body when things are off. As a person who hates ER’s and never wants to go this could’ve been a lot worse.” She also noted that she only wants to cancel a show if the issue is “severe.”

As of now, Monaleo will continue performing on March 6, when she’s scheduled to take the stage at the House of Blues in Houston. After that, she has 11 more shows on the docket, wrapping up the tour with a performance in Birmingham, Alabama, on April 21. The run of concerts is in support of her sophomore studio album, Who Did the Body, which she dropped back in October.

After this tour, she’ll only get a short break, as she is also planning to support Summer Walker on her upcoming Still Finally Over It tour, which begins the following month.

News of the Patriots’ decision to release Diggs comes just weeks after his split from Cardi B, with whom he shares one child. Reportedly, the two of them decided to go their separate ways shortly before the Super Bowl last month. At the time of writing, neither of them has publicly addressed the breakup.

During one of the femcee’s recent stops on her “Little Miss Drama” tour, however, fans suspected that she threw a bit of shade his way.

“It’s called the principle. You can’t be out here playing with a b*tch like me. There’s n***a out here praying for a b*tch like me. You hear me?” she said onstage. “You ain’t never had a bad b*tch like this, n***a. Never in your motherf*cking life! None of them b*tches ain’t f*cking with me!”

Cardi later took to Twitter/X to seemingly clarify that she was not talking about Diggs, noting that she was simply quoting her own lyrics. “Dear blogs, when I perform a song I always introduce the song with a lil razzle dazzle,” she explained. “Not everything is a shot or personal. I’m actually repeating lyrics from the songs…Relax.”

The Patriots’ decision to release Diggs also comes a few months after he was accused of assaulting his former private chef.

Curry wore the grey suede BadBo 1.0 while watching his team from the bench in street clothes. The sneakers represent Bad Bunny’s signature model with Adidas featuring retro basketball design influences throughout.

This marks another instance of Curry promoting sneakers outside his primary Under Armour endorsement deal. The BadBo 1.0 features a clean grey suede upper with minimal branding and classic basketball silhouette.

Blue Adidas branding appears on the tongue providing subtle color contrast against the neutral base. The translucent outsole gives the shoe vintage aesthetic appeal reminiscent of 90s basketball sneakers.

Curry has a history of wearing various sneaker brands casually as his Under Armour deal closes. His courtside appearances generate significant attention from sneaker fans and media coverage across social platforms.

The BadBo 1.0 gains valuable visibility through Curry’s endorsement even while he’s injured currently. Bad Bunny’s Adidas partnership continues expanding with signature basketball models beyond just lifestyle releases previously.

The BadBo 1.0 represents the artist’s first true basketball sneaker in his growing footwear catalog. Curry wearing them courtside provides mainstream NBA credibility to the Latin superstar’s signature shoe.

The BadBo 1.0 has that classic retro basketball aesthetic that’s been trending lately in sneakers. Grey suede gives these a premium, elevated look compared to typical mesh basketball shoes.

The minimal branding approach lets the silhouette speak for itself without excessive logos everywhere. That translucent outsole is such a nice vintage touch that brings 90s nostalgia perfectly.

Bad Bunny’s signature basketball shoe entering the NBA space through Curry is genuinely significant. The blue Adidas branding on the tongue provides just enough color without overwhelming things.

These feel like they could actually work on court despite being a musician’s signature model. Steph wearing them injured still generates way more buzz than most sneakers get.

The post read: “China scientists have successfully used stem cells to reverse type 1 and type 2 diabetes in humans. Stem cells are helping some Type 1 patients make insulin naturally. No injections, no pumps — just your body doing the work.”

“CAN SOMEONE CALL MY ASSISTANT,” Boosie replied in his since-deleted post, adding their phone number. “If U can get me THIS DONE SO I CAN ASK MY PO N JUDGE FOR PERMISSION TO GO TO CHINA.”

The exact sourcing of the post from SayCheeseTV remains unclear. The American Medical Journal previously published a story about a woman in China receiving an experimental stem-cell treatment for Type 1 diabetes, but that was back in 2024. Regardless, Boosie appears to be interested.

As for why he’d need permission to travel to China, Boosie was recently sentenced to three years of supervised release due to a federal gun case. He also got hit with a $50K fine and will have to complete 300 community service hours.

“I’m blessed to have my freedom,” he said afterward in a video caught by The Neighborhood Talk on Instagram. “It’s time to turn up now. I couldn’t do a lot of s**t because of this situation that I was going through. I got three movies ready, I got probably seven albums ready. I’m finna push the gas. I can do shows again. 2026, we lit. All my Boosie fans, we back, baby. Ain’t going nowhere. God did it for us again.”

“In my opinion, I always said it was me, Uzi, X– like we’re talking actual SoundCloud. In my opinion, I’ll probably get some flak for this, but I’d like to say Lil Tracy. Oh and Carti. I think my Rushmore is me, Uzi, Carti, X, and Lil Peep,” he said.

From there, he explained why he left Juice Wrld off the list. “Juice really wasn’t a part of our era,” he noted. “He came after us. I remember in that era, X was going crazy. I remember Tay K was going crazy, I think Tay K would’ve been huge had his situation…”

When Kurrco shared the clip on X (formerly Twitter), debate ensued in the replies. “Ppl saying juice, trippie, summrs dont know what the purpose of a mt rushmore list is, its for the founding fathers. Really nobody that came out after late 2015 ish should be on the list, and even that is pushing it,” one user argued. Another wrote: “Carti, Peep, and Uzi and X. Each of these individuals create a genre and style and is still replicated today.”

Lil Uzi Vert’s Next Album

Yachty’s praise of Lil Uzi Vert comes as the rapper has been making headlines for a new interview with Dazed, published on Tuesday. During the discussion, they told the outlet that they’re working on a new album.  

“You gotta understand, I got so many flows,” they said. “My fans don’t really appreciate when I make a big mainstream song. They say, ‘Well, we want a trapped-out Uzi.’ Then I make a trap song and they say, ‘Uzi, you know better than this, you make quality music, we can’t even hear it.’ So instead of meeting those people in the middle, I make two different genres of music… I have my real drops that I usually drop on holidays or I have a countdown.”

Ak’s latest jabs come just a few days after he weighed in on a potential upcoming Young Thug and Lil Baby collab. He didn’t hold back in the slightest, making it clear that his expectations are not high. Moreover, he claimed that the two artists have little to no chance of succeeding without the help of their former friend, Gunna.

“Am I expecting some heat from these two? I’mma be honest with y’all, no. I know some of y’all think I’m just gonna be hating. No, I’m gonna call a spade a spade,” he stated at the time. “This is two ice cubes linking up together, man. They might as well be in the freezer together. That’s a fact.”

“They better be driving to Gunna’s crib,” Ak continued. “They better put in the GPS, ‘Gunna Wunna’s crib.’ Straight up. […] This is damn near the ice bucket challenge. Y’all might as well just go to Gunna’s crib. Gunna got the sauce, I’m sorry.”

“Lil Baby don’t got no national hits right now,” he added. “This sh*t’s looking cold. Young Thug has the biggest fumble since he got out of jail. Biggest. We’ve never seen a fumble like this. From Gucci, to T.I., to YoungBoy, to Boosie. He did everything possible wrong and then dropped an album that was underwhelming at that.”

Jeezy & Jeannie Mai’s Divorce

As for Jeannie Mai, she and her ex-husband, Jeezy, divorced in 2024 after three years of marriage. They share a four-year-old daughter, Monaco. Mai reflected on the breakup and how she’s been trying to avoid any “turmoil” for their child during an appearance on the Question Everything podcast in January. “That’s not something I want her to ever have to think about,” she said at the time. “My job is to define peace for her. So, she’s going to get that.”

“Divorce, it’s experiencing death alive,” Mai added, speaking of the separation as a whole. “There’s no way to understand that feeling of space shared with somebody and all of a sudden it closing in, to where you even wonder if you can trust yourself in your thoughts because one day you had a plan and you had these thoughts and then suddenly it becomes something else.”

Now, it looks like he might be feeling the weight of that backlash, as he appears to have deactivated his social media accounts. It’s unclear exactly when the accounts were deactivated, but it was after Arcola accused him of allowing their son to get hurt on his watch.

“You don’t even love yourself b*tch!” she wrote. “I know it’s f*ck my baby, it’s been f*ck my baby when you let his finger get burned and yo lying a** wife said he got bit bye a ‘dog’ f*ck you and everything you stand for b*tch, you gone rot in hell too.”

“I took care of KAELL BY MYSELF AND YOU KNOW THIS BE FR MY N***A,” she said in a follow-up tweet. “WHEN I DID ASK FOR STUFF IT WAS THE BARE MINIMUM AND YOU COULDNT EVEN DO THAT.
