Rose alleges the impact left her dazed and suffering from immediate neurological symptoms. These include headaches, dizziness, blurred vision, nausea, neck pain, and a brief loss of consciousness or altered awareness. She says she was taken to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center for emergency evaluation. While there, she was treated for what the lawsuit describes as a concussion and other injuries.

Several Named As Defendants

The suit names Gravitas, its operator Moxie Restaurant Ventures, and Celios Designs, the company identified in the complaint as responsible for installing the holiday decorations. Rose alleges the defendants failed to properly design, secure, inspect, and maintain the oversized display, creating what the lawsuit describes as an unreasonable safety hazard for guests.

Beyond the initial hospitalization, Rose claims she has continued to experience cognitive and vestibular issues. She argues she has struggled with memory problems, vertigo, visual disturbances, sleep disruption, anxiety, fatigue, and diminished quality of life. The complaint seeks damages for medical expenses, lost earnings and earning capacity, and pain and suffering. Additionally, she claims emotional distress and other losses tied to the alleged incident.

In a statement provided to PEOPLE, Rose’s attorneys said the lawsuit was filed only after careful consideration. They also expressed hope that the matter can be resolved efficiently while protecting their client’s interests. Further, they are prepared to pursue the case through the judicial process if a resolution cannot be reached. The defendants had not publicly responded to the allegations at the time of publication.

Elsewhere, Idris Elba, Keke Palmer, Pedro Pascal, Lisa Kudrow, David Alan Grier, Jo Koy, and Nicole Scherzinger are among the entertainers scheduled to receive stars.

The shirt is the latest sign that what once looked like subtle tension has evolved into an increasingly public feud. Drake and LeBron spent years presenting a united front, with the NBA icon frequently attending the rapper’s concerts and publicly supporting his music. That relationship appeared to unravel during Drake’s highly publicized battle with Kendrick Lamar, when fans noticed LeBron showing support for Kendrick’s music and later attending his Pop Out concert in Los Angeles.

Since then, Drake has sprinkled references to their fractured friendship throughout his music and appearances. Fans have also dissected lyrics from recent releases for what they believe are indirect shots at James, fueling speculation that the relationship has deteriorated beyond repair. This latest dig leaves little room for interpretation. Drake turned the joke into wearable merchandise by replacing one of basketball’s biggest names with that of a professional padel player.

Check out the subtle diss below.

Speaking with NME, Trim admitted she’s still puzzled by the constant comparisons, arguing that her breakout hit doesn’t resemble anyone else’s work. “Honestly… I don’t really get it,” she said. “‘Coconut Water’ don’t sound nothing like nobody. Not even Beyoncé.”

Standing Out As Her Own Artist

While social media has spent months debating the similarities, Trim believes the conversation misses what makes her music distinctive. In her view, the goal has never been to recreate another artist’s formula but to build a sound that’s immediately recognizable as her own.

She also addressed another viral moment that drew criticism earlier this year after describing her song “Pass The Tiara” as her version of Michael Jackson’s Thriller. The comment quickly spread across social media, with some interpreting it as an attempt to compare herself to one of music’s most successful artists. Trim said that wasn’t her intention.

“Every song has to have meaning,” she explained. “Every song has to be your best work of art.”

Rather than measuring commercial success against Jackson’s landmark album, she said she was talking about longevity. She wants to create music that listeners continue returning to years after its release. It’s an ambitious standard for an artist at the beginning of her career, but one she says reflects the level of care she wants to put into every record.

Mysonne recalled the depth of pounding-the-pavement protests he and others endured. “I was frontline,” he said. “We tryin’ to boycott this and that. I seen [Jay-Z] come in, he got the Kap jersey. He front and center with it. One day, Kaepernick stopped answering n*ggas phone calls.”

Mysonne Was Shocked

“We planning the next action, we in the emails. They’re like, ‘Kaepernick is not answering nobody’s emails,'” he continued. “He done left the group chat. I’m telling you this for a fact. So, [it’s], ‘What you mean he left the group chat?’ They say, ‘I don’t know.’ And this happened for weeks… He just went silent on us.”

Then, Mysonne said “next thing you know,” he became aware of Kaepernick’s settlement with the NFL. “They say he signed an NDA. I’m like, he didn’t tell us? So, you sayin’ that we did all of this sh*t, that n*ggas sacrificed and beefing with other n*ggas, and we doin’ all this sh*t, and the n*gga we sacrificed for just disappeared from the movement? And didn’t even notify us?”

Kaepernick and the NFL reached a confidential settlement in February 2019, resolving the quarterback’s collusion grievance against the league after he alleged NFL owners worked together to keep him from signing with another team. The agreement included a confidentiality clause, meaning neither side disclosed the financial terms of the settlement. Further, earlier this month, the Roc Nation founder referenced Kaepernick during a freestyle performance, suggesting the former quarterback accepted a settlement that required him to remain quiet. However, sources familiar with the agreement have disputed that claim, saying Kaepernick did not sign a non-disparagement clause and has continued speaking publicly about the NFL since the settlement.

All of this subsequently led to a response from Cardi B, who said that she really knows how to pick ’em. However, she did say that she also feels like exes hate her and that they love to stir things up when she’s happy.

Now, Cardi is taking to social media with her parenting philosophy. This time, she is talking directly to her sons. As she explains, if one of her sons were to get a girl pregnant, he would be kicked out of the house.

Cardi B Puts Her Foot Down

Her logic is simple. Having a child with someone is a grown-up decision. If you can make grown-up decisions, then you can live like a grown-up in the real world.

It is one of those parenting takes that will certainly lead to debates on social media. After all, everybody has their own parenting style. Some parents prefer to keep their kids at home for as long as possible, regardless of their choices. Others don’t, and that’s valid as well.

Whatever the case may be, Cardi B has never shied away from giving her opinion, and this is a perfect example of that. No one is going to keep her silenced, regardless of how controversial she may get.

His comments were a response to Boogie allegedly writing on Facebook: “Really I’m ya BOSS Who Signed Who Moneybagg Yo Come On!! #CMG4L.”

In another post, Finesse2Tymes elaborated further on the alleged attempts to try and stifle his career.

He added, “Aint nun of yo n*gas harder than me AND IF YALL WANNA PUT MONEY [ON] IT WE CAN.”

Finesse2Tymes Label Issues

As much as Big Boogie might be antagonizing Finesse2Tymes, this is not the first time he’s expressed issues over his contracts. A few months ago, he revealed that he was stuck in a 360 deal with J. Prince Jr after running his paperwork through ChatGPT. Adding to his current issues, we hope to see Finesse2Tymes resolve his label conflicts soon so he could release more music.

As we reported on Wednesday, Rick Ross’ new project is struggling to generate sales. It is slated to sell 26K units in the first week, which means it would fall outside the Billboard 200’s Top 20. This led to a slick response from Fif, who told Ross to quit rapping.

On Thursday, Rick Ross offered up a response of his own, claiming that 50 Cent is pushing propaganda.

“Real Hip-Hop lovers should never get caught up in the propaganda and fake bot numbers,” Ross said. “True Hip-Hop lovers never get caught up in the propaganda and the fake bot numbers. Go to the product. Test it. How amazing is the music?”

Rick Ross Speaks

Rick Ross subsequently went on to say that he is putting out great music, and his fans are there for him. Moreover, he believes that the album sales talk is all about bots. Overall, it is an interesting point to make, although one has to wonder how bots factor into low sales.

“They bots. Commenting on the classic album with no posts. Who cares? I don’t give. Long as they spending money. Rozay putting the dope music out. That’s who fight my battles with the bots and all of that,” Ross continued.

The first week sales debate continues to be had across the hip-hop world. Some believe it doesn’t matter. Others see it as indicative of hip-hop’s mainstream popularity. No matter what, it is clear that 26K just isn’t good enough for an artist of Ross’ caliber.

Tributes quickly spread across social media as members of the Hip-Hop and poetry communities mourned one of the genre’s most influential voices. Per All Hip-Hop, Russell Simmons, who introduced Black Ice to millions through HBO’s Def Poetry Jam, remembered him as a singular talent who transformed the relationship between poetry and rap.

“He bridged the gap between Hip-Hop and poetry,” Simmons said in a video tribute, adding that Black Ice “wasn’t discovered—he discovered himself.”

Spoken word pioneer Toni Blackman described him as “one of the dopest to ever bless a stage,” while Philadelphia native Jill Scott reflected on more than 30 years of friendship, calling him a gifted writer whose impact reached far beyond the microphone. “Rest beautifully WORDSMITH. We got to have 30 years as REAL FRIENDS with REAL pens.”

Black Ice’s Legacy

Born Lamar Manson, Black Ice built a reputation as one of the most electrifying performers of his generation. His blend of social criticism, personal storytelling and booming delivery became a signature during the rise of Def Poetry Jam, where he emerged as one of the series’ defining figures. His performances demonstrated that spoken word could command the same emotional intensity and cultural relevance as hip-hop.

Black Ice also carried that message into music. In 2006, he released The Death of Willie Lynch, an album that fused politically charged poetry with Hip-Hop production and introduced his work to an even wider audience. Away from the spotlight, he dedicated time to mentoring young people through education, encouraging students to use writing as a vehicle for self-expression. 

Rest In Peace, Black Ice.
