His stay at FCI Fort Dix has been relatively uneventful. It was reported that he entered a rehab treatment program. Furthermore, the music mogul was helping the other inmates out with an education initiative. These actions helped Diddy lower his sentence by a few weeks. Originally, he was set to be released on April 15. However, the most recent update stated his release date was changed to February 23.

Diddy’s good behavior streak was recently threatened as it was reported that the mogul was put in solitary confinement following a fight with a fellow inmate. The inmate reportedly provoked the situation, and Diddy allegedly fought back.

This had some wondering if the mogul’s release date would be impacted. Well, as it turns out, Diddy’s release date has changed. Except he’s now going to be released even sooner.

According to legal reporter Lauren Conlin, Diddy’s documents suggest his release date is now set for January 24, 2028. It appears as though his recent prison fight has had absolutely no bearing on his standing with the legal system.

The details surrounding his fight remain fairly scarce. It’s for this reason that some are confused as to why Diddy’s release has been moved up as opposed to being delayed. Perhaps those details will be known soon, although for now, it is a developing story.

All things considered, Diddy still has 18 more months before his time at Fort Dix comes to an end.

In the aftermath of these allegations, Diggs sued for defamation. This subsequently led to a countersuit from Griffith. The two are now deadlocked in a legal fight, and according to TMZ, Griffith has been summoned to provide new evidence.

As per the report, Griffith has 14 days to submit every single text message he and Diggs have shared over the years. This includes their entire Instagram thread. Furthermore, Griffith must produce travel expenses and documents between May 20-23, 2023. These were the dates of the alleged incident. These documents would include receipts for flights, luggage, and hotels.

Stefon Diggs’ Legal Battle Continues

Stefon Diggs has previously asked for sanctions against Griffith, but that request was ultimately denied. Previously, Griffith stated that he had produced 100 pages worth of texts between him and Diggs. However, the judge is clearly looking for something more thorough.

This legal battle has seemingly impacted Diggs’ ability to get another NFL contract. He is still a free agent and has not signed a deal since being let go by the New England Patriots following the Super Bowl.

Teams like the Washington Commanders are reportedly interested, but nothing has materialized. With training camp starting soon, one must wonder what is next for the NFL superstar.

There have been rumblings that he wants to live in New York City and travel to Philadelphia via helicopter. It is a bold decision, albeit one that some sports fans think is disrespectful to the city of Philadelphia.

For instance, Barstool Sports founder and infamous LeBron hater, Dave Portnoy, thinks this is absolutely outrageous.

Dave Portnoy Is Offended

“This guy is so disgusted by the city of Philadelphia that he is commuting in from Manhattan? Are you serious?” Portnoy said. “This guy hates you so much, Philadelphia, he comes in and says, ‘Hey, Governor Shapiro, name a day after me, the LeBron James day in the state of Pennsylvania.’ BTW, he loves your city so much, Philadelphia, that he won’t even live in the city? … This is the biggest spit in the face to any city I’ve ever seen.”

Quite frankly, Portnoy’s opinion on the matter should not be much of a surprise to anyone. He has always looked for reasons to criticize LeBron, and this appears to be the most recent way to get that hate off.

For LeBron, his focus is mainly going to be on potentially winning a championship with the 76ers. That is what the fans want to see right now. LeBron has a huge opportunity in front of him, and you can’t help but hope he gets to five rings.

To do that with four teams would put him in a league of his own. We will just have to wait for the NBA season to start to see if it works.

However, they came under fire last week for their hot take on Drake’s relationship with Sexyy Red. Their comments about Sexyy Red were deemed anti-black, with some feeling as though they shared a deep disdain for her entire existence. They also made the claim that Drake was using her as a way to be more in tune with his blackness.

Akademiks responded to The Mallory Bros, claiming their take was idiotic. This subsequently led to a response, in which they said Akademiks takes his relationship with Drake more seriously than his own race.

“You take your Drake Fandom more serious than you take your blackness… No n**** could ever put a chain around my neck. I would never wear another n**** chain,” the brothers said.

As you can imagine, Akademiks was not a fan of these comments, and he let his feelings be known during his most recent live stream. He even went so far as to insult the brothers’ intelligence and their media empire.

DJ Akademiks Responds

Akademiks says that he never heard of the brothers before their hot take on Sexyy Red. Given their 357K subscribers on YouTube, this is quite hard to believe. You may not agree with them, but you can’t say they’re not popular.

During the 40-minute segment, Akademiks likened The Mallory Bros to Kendrick Lamar stans who reach for arguments against Drake. However, Ak acknowledged how The Mallory Bros are fans of Drizzy. This subsequently led to Ak’s conclusion that they are jealous.

If one thing is for certain, it is that Ak is going to respond when you come for him.

The Bronx rapper addressed the conversation on social media this week after repeatedly seeing comments from people urging her to get a BBL reduction. Cardi said she has already taken steps to reduce her previous enhancements but does not plan to undergo another major procedure.

According to Cardi, she has had two liposuction procedures and one butt reduction. She explained that another reduction would require a more invasive process because of loose skin, which could involve cutting and a lengthy recovery period.

“I like my body how it looks right now. I’m comfortable in my skin,” Cardi B said while responding to critics. She added that she is not interested in taking time away from her busy schedule for another surgery.

The rapper also questioned why fans continue to assume she has had new work done every time she appears with a different look. Cardi pointed out that she frequently shares updates from her life and travels, making it unlikely that she would have enough downtime for repeated procedures.

She also defended her current appearance. She said she has been transparent about the methods she uses to maintain her look. Cardi encouraged followers to focus less on speculation and more on healthy habits, mentioning the importance of staying hydrated and maintaining proper digestion.

As we reported yesterday, she also clapped back against her haters during a Kick live stream. It was here that she said others were jealous, and that at 34 years old, she was still all natural.

In the midst of all of this, Lil Duval insulted Renner on X by questioning her attractiveness. In his mind, Renner was only accepted because everyone was at the time of her rise to fame.

“Brittney Renner never looked good to me she was just lightskin and came out at the right time social media was accepting anybody,” Lil Duval wrote.

This led to a strong reply from Renner, who was not going to sit by and be disrespected. As you will read, she made fun of Lil Duval’s looks.

Brittany Renner Clashes With Lil Duval

“The confidence is admirable. Never in history have you been any woman’s dream guy, you short, wide-mouthed bitch,” Renner clapped back.

A quick social media search will show you that Duval has not responded to Renner’s digs. Clearly, this isn’t something that he is particularly interested in spending time on.

As for Renner, it has been an interesting couple of months for her. She recently came out and stated that she was no longer Muslim. The influencer revealed that the lifestyle no longer made her happy.

Meanwhile, she has the entire internet coming for her, which has led to these social media spats. Only time will tell if things become less chaotic for her.

Per TMZ, the parties reached an unconditional settlement on July 23. The filing states that a formal request to dismiss the case will be submitted within 45 days of the agreement. Financial terms and any other conditions of the settlement have not been made public, and neither side has commented on the resolution.

Pisciotta alleged she was subjected to repeated sexual harassment during her employment before ultimately being dismissed. Her complaint accused Kanye West of sending numerous explicit text messages, photos, and videos, including graphic sexual fantasies that she said created a hostile work environment. In one text, he allegedly wrote, “See my problem is I be wanting to f*** but then after I f*** I want a girl to tell me how hard they been f***** while I’m f****** them. Then I want her to cheat on me.”

Moreover, the lawsuit also contained allegations of physical misconduct. Pisciotta claimed West inappropriately touched her during a hotel stay and alleged that he fell asleep during the encounter. In addition, she accused him of drugging her during a recording studio session that she said was co-hosted by Sean “Diddy” Combs.

Kanye West Settles Lawsuit

West has consistently denied the allegations made in the lawsuit. However, the lawsuit was not the first time West has faced allegations of sexual misconduct. In a separate claim, a woman named Jenn An accused the musician of sexually assaulting and physically assaulting her during an incident in 2010. West has denied previous allegations of misconduct.

Last week, the preliminary hearing began, as the prosecution attempted to explain why this case must go to trial. In the end, the judge felt they had made a compelling argument and ordered a trial. At this time, the trial’s start date is to be determined.

According to TMZ, the prosecution is attempting to locate specific pieces of evidence ahead of the trial. As they explain, Celeste’s left ring finger and pinky finger are missing. They claim D4vd’s name is tattooed on the aforementioned ring finger.

D4vd Murder Case Continues

Furthermore, the prosecution alleges that the murder weapon is nowhere to be found. Autopsy reports stated that Celeste Rivas initially died due to stab wounds. Security footage from the alleged timing of the murder, the victim’s purse, and the singer’s cellphones are also reportedly missing. Investigators are still trying to acquire these pieces of alleged evidence, although there is a chance that they won’t be able to.

On Monday, D4vd’s legal team issued its defense, painting Celeste Rivas Hernandez as the aggressor. They claimed that she had threatened the singer’s life and career. Furthermore, they alleged that her family was consenting to the relationship.

The Hernandez family attorney eventually responded to these claims, saying that it was disgusting to blame a 14-year-old.

This is a developing story, so stay tuned to HNHH for updates.

For those who missed it, Gabrielle Cheyenne was invited on stage, but clearly didn’t care for what Usher was doing. Her disinterest was so apparent that the singer had to intervene. In the aftermath, Cheyenne went off on internet commenters for calling her ungrateful and rude. She subsequently went on to say that she was only there for Chris Brown.

On Tuesday night, during a show in Birmingham, Alabama, Usher tendered a response of sorts. As you will hear below, he invited a fan on stage, but had a word of warning. Only agree to come up if you actually want to be there.

Usher Speaks Out

It was a very pointed comment, and a subtle dig at Gabrielle Cheyenne. However, it was also an important message to make. At the end of the day, you want your fans to enjoy the experience. Going up on stage takes a lot of courage, and not being interested in the performance can be embarrassing. That being said, it appears as though Usher is now putting in safeguards to avoid any issues going forward.

Gabrielle Cheyenne has been doing quite a few interviews since Saturday. Some believe she is trying too hard to achieve her 15 minutes of fame. Others are simply annoyed that her behavior got her so much attention.

Regardless, The R&B Tour continues.

Defense attorneys had attempted to block the interview, arguing that investigators assured Keefe D, whose legal name is Duane “Keefe D” Davis, the statements would never be used against him in a criminal case. They also claimed he spoke under pressure out of fear for the safety of his family. However, the court found those arguments unpersuasive, noting that Davis was represented by legal counsel during the interview and was not in a vulnerable position when he made the statements.

The ruling removes a key element of the defense’s pretrial strategy, but it is only one piece of the prosecution’s case. Prosecutors are also expected to rely heavily on Davis’ 2019 memoir, Compton Street Legend, in which he recounted his alleged role in the events surrounding Shakur’s fatal shooting. In the book, Davis claimed he was riding in the vehicle involved that night, identified his late nephew, Orlando “Baby Lane” Anderson, as the gunman, and wrote that he supplied the firearm used in the attack.

Keefe D’s Defense

Defense lawyers maintain those accounts were exaggerated for commercial purposes. They argued they were intended to sell books and attract publicity rather than serve as factual admissions. Prosecutors, however, contend the repeated, detailed descriptions support their allegation that Davis helped organize the fatal shooting. 

The closely watched trial will begin on August 10th and is expected to last approximately four weeks. The 63-year-old is charged in connection with the 1996 killing of rap icon Tupac Shakur. If convicted, he could face a sentence of life in prison without the possibility of parole.
