Music mogul and Fenty Beauty founder Rihanna is setting the record straight regarding her family plans, shutting down rumors that she is currently expecting a fourth child. The “Anti” singer used her signature wit to dispel social media speculation that began circulating earlier this week. The rumors gained traction after blogger Krissy Clemons, who operates the popular Instagram account @everybodyhatekrissy, shared a video featuring an older photo of the star with a visible baby bump. Rihanna, 38, personally entered the comment section on Wednesday to address the post directly. “Is the baby in the womb with us?” Rihanna joked. View this post on Instagram In January, Rihanna commented on a video posted by former “Love Island” star Montana Rose Brown, who was debating whether to focus on fitness or getting pregnant in 2026. At the time, Rihanna replied, “Wait! So I’m not crazy then? Bet!” Rihanna currently shares three children with her longtime partner, rapper A$AP Rocky. The couple welcomed their first daughter, Rocki, on Sept. 13, 2025. They are also parents to two sons: RZA, 3, and Riot Rose, 2. While the singer is not currently pregnant, A$AP Rocky is preparing for a busy year as he is set to embark on a global tour.

Ice Spice is breaking her silence following a viral altercation that took place at a McDonald’s. The Bronx-born musician took to social media Friday evening to address a widely circulated video clip that appeared to show a heated confrontation at the fast-food establishment. Instead of a formal statement, the “Munch” artist opted for a more lighthearted approach to the controversy. Posting on X, formerly known as Twitter, she shared a snippet of a brand-new song alongside a cheeky jab at the golden arches. “This wouldn’t happen at Wendy’s,” she wrote, referencing the rival burger chain. The post quickly garnered thousands of interactions as fans praised her ability to remain “unbothered” while simultaneously teasing new music. Details regarding the specific cause of the McDonald’s altercation remain scarce, but the clip in question showed the star in the middle of a chaotic scene that had social media users speculating for hours. View this post on Instagram The woman seen attacking Spice addressed the situation as well. While speaking with TMZ, she says the incident started with the rapper being dismissive and disrespectful toward her. The woman, identified only as Vayah, explained, as she walked over to Spice, “Immediately Ice Spice was being rude. She was like, ‘Why are you over here? You can leave, bye,’” Vayah told TMZ. “She said, ‘I’m from New York,’” Vayah recalled. “Let me tell you something. You’re in LA. You’re in my city now, and you can’t be out here disrespecting people. If you wanted us to leave, you could have just said, politely, ‘I’m not in the mood.’” View this post on Instagram

A woman who physically attacked rapper Ice Spice inside a Hollywood McDonald’s on Wednesday is now telling her side of the story. She says the confrontation started because the rapper was dismissive and disrespectful toward her. The woman, identified only as Vayah, spoke to TMZ on Thursday. She said she and her friends stopped at the fast-food restaurant to use the restroom. That’s when she spotted the Bronx-born rapper sitting at a table with a friend. Vayah said she walked over to introduce herself and pay the rapper a compliment. What happened next, she says, caught her off guard. “Immediately Ice Spice was being rude. She was like, ‘Why are you over here? You can leave, bye,’” Vayah told TMZ. Vayah says she pushed back on the rapper’s tone before asking where she was from. “She said, ‘I’m from New York,’” Vayah recalled. “Let me tell you something. You’re in LA. You’re in my city now, and you can’t be out here disrespecting people. If you wanted us to leave, you could have just said, politely, ‘I’m not in the mood.’” From Compliment to Confrontation According to Vayah, things escalated quickly after that exchange. She claims Ice Spice called her a “b***h” during the interaction. That moment, she says, is what pushed her over the edge. Restaurant staff then escorted Vayah out of the McDonald’s. But she says she could still hear the rapper talking about her from outside. The altercation did not end there. Additional footage shows the dispute spilling out onto the street, where a separate argument broke out. Vayah also alleged that during the chaos, Ice Spice grabbed her friend’s phone off the floor and threw it, cracking the screen. However, surveillance footage obtained by TMZ appears to tell a different story. In the video, Vayah is seen approaching the table and asking if they were ready to “shake ass.” Ice Spice is heard responding, “That’s what you do? You shake ass?” before telling Vayah to “go do it then.” Vayah is then seen slapping the rapper. ‘She Lost a Fan’ Despite her own role in the physical confrontation, Vayah framed much of the incident as a failure of character on the rapper’s part. She said she held Ice Spice to a higher standard. “As a fan, I’m not expecting you to be rude,” Vayah said. “She had a different attitude towards me. She lost a fan. I can’t listen to her anymore.” Vayah said the incident changed the way she sees the rapper entirely and that she no longer wishes to support her. Ice Spice’s legal team moved quickly after the incident. Her lawyer issued a statement to TMZ, saying the attack had been reported to the Los Angeles Police Department and that all available avenues would be pursued to hold those responsible accountable. Vayah’s account has not been independently verified. Authorities have not released further details as the investigation continues.

Nearly 24 years after the killing of Jam Master Jay, the case is on the verge of another significant shift. Jay Bryant moves toward a guilty plea. Court filings show Bryant is expected to change his plea from not guilty. This follows negotiations with federal prosecutors that have unfolded quietly in recent weeks. If entered, the plea would mark the first formal admission of involvement in the long-unsolved Queens studio shooting. The development arrives as the case continues to shift under competing rulings and appeals. The broader prosecution has already seen sharp reversals in court. Karl Jordan Jr. and Ronald Washington were convicted by a jury in 2024. However, the outcome changed again in December 2025 when Judge LaShann DeArcy Hall vacated Jordan’s conviction and issued an acquittal. In her ruling, she wrote, “There is simply no evidence suggesting that Jordan felt cheated by the failure of the Baltimore deal.” She also found that the government’s theory leaned too heavily on inference rather than direct proof, a standard she said was not enough to sustain a murder conviction. Even with that decision, Jordan has not been released. Prosecutors quickly appealed, successfully blocking a bond order that would have set him free on $1 million bail. He had been days from leaving Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center. Family members pledged property worth $525,000 to secure his release. At one point, Judge Hall remarked, “There’s a real chance, Mr. Jordan, that you may be released in the very near term,” before the government intervened and halted the process. A Case Still Shifting After Years of Legal Turns Bryant’s case has unfolded on a separate track but remains closely tied to the same investigation. Indicted in 2023, prosecutors say DNA evidence linked him to a hat recovered at the scene. They also say he helped gain access to the studio by opening a secured door. A relative testified that Bryant admitted responsibility for shooting Jay. However, no independent witnesses place him inside the room during the attack. Bryant, 52, was already serving time on unrelated federal drug and firearms convictions when he was charged in the murder case. He has since pleaded guilty in those earlier matters and awaits sentencing. The shifting record has produced repeated legal reversals. As a result, prosecutors are working to stabilize a case that has changed shape several times since arrests began in 2020. Washington remains incarcerated. Jordan continues to contest his status despite acquittal. The circumstances of the 2002 killing remain only partially settled.

Bam Adebayo has yet to receive an apology from LaMelo Ball for Ball’s tripping of Adebayo in the Miami Heat’s 127-126 Play-In loss to the Charlotte Hornets on Tuesday. The incident occurred when Ball caught Adebayo’s leg, sending the Heat big man crashing to the floor in a play. Adebayo left the game and did not return. Many—including Bam himself—viewed it as unnecessary and dangerous. According to The Athletic, Adebayo and Ball have not met since the play took place. “It didn’t happen,” Adebayo said during a recent press conference. “By that time, I was in the shower trying to figure out what I was going to do next. Obviously, everything happened all at once, and I wanted to be out there. At some point, I’ll see him again, and we’ll have that conversation, and we’ll move on.” Adebayo did not describe Ball as a dirty player in his remarks. La acción que desató anoche la polémica: LaMelo Ball empuja del pie a Bam Adebayo, que cayó al suelo y no pudo volver al partido jugando tan solo 11 minutos Lámelo Ball se disculpó diciendo que había sido involuntario pic.twitter.com/FgrywAc4Vo — Pasion Basket (@PasionBasketNBA) April 15, 2026 Nobody is really going to know the truth but LaMelo if it was dirty or not,” Adebayo said. “Everyone is going to try to defend him or defend me. We move on at this point.” Following the loss, Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra did not mince words about Ball’s reckless play. “I don’t think it’s cute. And I don’t think it’s funny. I think it’s a stupid play. It’s a dangerous play,” Spoelstra said after Tuesday’s loss. “I don’t think that belongs in the game. Tripping guys, those shenanigans. He should have been thrown out of the game for that. … There’s just no place in the game for that.” Although the play wasn’t reviewed during the game, the  NBA has since fined Ball $35,000, “for making unnecessary and reckless contact.” Also, Ball was retroactively assessed a Flagrant 2 foul, “saying Ball should have been ejected.” ​The NBA also announced that Ball has been fined $25,000 for using profanity during his post-game interview. Ball will not face a suspension for the incident. He’ll be in the lineup on Friday when Charlotte plays the Orlando Magic with the No. 8 seed in the Eastern Conference playoffs on the line.

A planned June performance by Ye (formerly known as Kanye West) in Poland has been called off, adding to a growing list of disrupted appearances across Europe. The announcement arrived just days after the show had been scheduled, signaling how quickly circumstances around the artist’s international bookings continue to change. In recent weeks, Ye has acknowledged that his public controversies have complicated his ability to perform abroad. Anticipating further complications, he moved to postpone a separate concert in France and addressed the decision directly. “I know it takes time to understand the sincerity of my commitment to make amends. I take full responsibility for what’s mine, but I don’t want to put my fans in the middle of it. My fans are everything to me. Looking forward to the next shows. See you at the top of the globe.” The cancellation in Poland was confirmed by the venue itself, with organizers pointing to procedural barriers. In a statement shared publicly, Slaski Stadium director Adam Strzyzewski said, “We would like to inform you that the Ye (Kanye West) concert planned for 19 June 2026 at the… Slaski stadium will not take place due to formal and legal reasons.” As a result, Ye’s fans in Poland were left disappointed by this news. The stadium, located in Chorzow in western Poland, is one of the country’s largest концерт venues, capable of hosting more than 50,000 attendees. Officials had signaled reservations even before the final decision, suggesting the outcome was not entirely unexpected. The combination of legal considerations and public sentiment appears to have shaped the result.

Poland’s culture minister, Marta Cienkowska, addressed the matter directly, saying, “In a country scarred by the history of the Holocaust, we cannot pretend that this is just entertainment.” Her remarks reflect a broader sensitivity in parts of Europe, where historical memory continues to influence cultural decisions. For Ye, the situation illustrates the challenges of rebuilding an international touring presence. While he has sought to express accountability, the response has varied significantly from country to country. Despite the setback, several overseas dates remain on his calendar. Performances are still scheduled in cities including New Delhi, Istanbul, and Amsterdam, along with festival appearances later in the summer. Earlier shows in Mexico City and Los Angeles suggested renewed momentum, drawing large crowds and widespread attention. In short, Ye’s tour continues to attract interest worldwide. Yet the uncertainty surrounding recent cancellations casts a long shadow over the tour’s trajectory. For now, each scheduled appearance carries an element of unpredictability as organizers weigh competing considerations.

A brief confrontation inside a Hollywood McDonald’s involving Ice Spice escalated into a street fight this week, according to video obtained by TMZ. The incident unfolded on the evening of April 15. The rapper was seated with a friend and eating inside the restaurant. In the footage, a woman approaches their table and attempts to sit nearby, despite not appearing to be part of their group. What began as a tense exchange inside the fast-food restaurant quickly moved outside. There, the dispute continued in view of passersby. The situation intensified after Ice Spice and her companion asked the woman to leave the table area. Moments later, the woman appeared to strike the rapper, prompting a brief physical scuffle inside the restaurant. That initial altercation was interrupted by the woman’s companion, who stepped in as others nearby reacted. However, the confrontation did not end there. Additional footage shows the dispute spilling onto the sidewalk, where further arguments broke out. The original confrontation resumed briefly with another swing thrown before bystanders moved in to separate those involved. @tmz EXCLUSIVE: Ice Spice was slapped by a fan inside of an L.A. McDonald’s. ♬ original sound – TMZ Ice Spice Team Calls Incident Unprovoked as Accounts Clash Ice Spice’s legal team addressed the incident in a statement provided to TMZ, describing the episode as an unprovoked attack. “The unprovoked attack on my client has been reported to the LAPD and we will be pursuing any and all avenues to hold the perpetrators responsible for their actions, including criminally and civilly. We are also exploring holding the location responsible for their lack of appropriate security.” The statement suggests possible legal action both against individuals involved and the venue itself. TMZ also reported comments from the woman identified as Vayah, who offered a different account of what led to the altercation. She claimed Ice Spice reacted harshly during what she described as an attempt to show admiration. In addition, she alleges the rapper used the word “bitch,” which she says prompted her response. Her account has not been independently verified, and authorities have not released further details as the investigation continues.

In recent weeks, Pooh Shiesty was taken into custody in Dallas, where prosecutors filed charges including kidnapping and robbery tied to a studio incident. Investigators allege the rapper and several associates carried out what they describe as an “armed takeover” in an attempt to exit his deal with 1017 Records. According to those claims, a firearm was used to pressure Gucci Mane into signing a release. If convicted, Shiesty could face a lengthy sentence. This reality has prompted strong reactions across hip-hop circles. Moreover, the case has fueled debate online. Some fans direct criticism toward Gucci Mane and question his role in the situation. That conversation intensified after Gucci Mane released “Crash Dummy,” a track widely interpreted as addressing the allegations. In the song, he raps, “Tell the truth, you went out like a real crash dummy, and after all that, boy, you still signed to me. I walk in the room, you can feel the pressure building / N***a dapped me up there, whole time they plotting against me.” The lyrics circulated quickly and drew attention from peers and commentators. As a result, Uncle Murda offered a pointed critique during a recent podcast appearance. View this post on Instagram Uncle Murda Slams Gucci Mane, Questions His Street Cred Speaking on The Real Report, Uncle Murda questioned the stance reflected in the record. “You can’t sound like a civilian after being a gangsta for 20-something years,” he said. “Some street sh*t happened to this n***a, now he want to sound like a civilian.” He went on to express sympathy for Shiesty and others he believes were influenced along the way. “I feel bad for Pooh Shiesty and Big30, and all them n****s, and all them n****s that Gucci misled,” he added. “You know how many n****s that n***a misled, had out here banging, selling drugs, killing n****s, and doing all this crazy sh*t? And now he a rat? Now he a civilian?” Murda closed with a blunt assessment. That left little room for ambiguity. “Get the f**k out of here, man,” he said. “Gucci a sucka. That sh*t he did with some sucka sh*t. I don’t feel like that. There’s no passes, no excuses. So I’m not going to sit up here and give you no f***ing scenario about Keyshia [Ka’Oir] and this and — No, all that sh*t was some corny sh*t, Gucci. It was some sucka sh*t.”

In a recent installment of Talk With Flee, Cam’ron made clear he has little interest in interviewing Ye (formerly known as Kanye West). He pointed to lingering discomfort with material from the rapper’s song “Cousins.” In that track, the Chicago artist recounts a deeply personal experience from childhood. This disclosure has drawn strong reactions across the industry. Cam’ron framed his position as a matter of personal boundaries rather than outright condemnation. “I don’t really care about what people do in their off-time, but when you wanna just openly admit at 40-something that you’ve been sucking d**k when you was a teenager, I can’t really rock with you,” he said. “‘Cause you wanna be gay when you wanna be gay when it’s convenient.” He continued by expanding on what he sees as inconsistency in how identity is presented. Yet, he maintained that his criticism is not aimed broadly. “I don’t have nothing against gay people, but how you just gonna make yourself gay when st ain’t going right?” he said. “Said you was sucking your cousin’s d**k when you was little, and not once, you was randomly sucking his d**k consistently.” The remarks, delivered in his typically direct tone, circulated quickly online. Furthermore, they appear to have prompted a response from Ye himself. Cam’ron Clashes With Ye as Tensions Spill Into a Viral Showdown “I don’t get that. I hate that,” Cam’ron said, recounting what he described as an angry message from Ye accusing him of bullying. “Somebody comes out and says something. I say something about what they said, and now I’m the bully. […] You’re mad at me?” The exchange adds to a broader pattern of public friction involving both figures in recent months. Neither has suggested any immediate effort to resolve the disagreement. Elsewhere, Cam’ron faced a separate flashpoint during an appearance by Jey Uso on It Is What It Is. The conversation escalated abruptly, with Uso lunging forward before others intervened to separate the two. No injuries were reported. The moment ended quickly. Reactions online have been divided, with some expressing concern. Others speculated the scene may have been staged to build anticipation for WrestleMania.

After several years largely out of the spotlight, Baby Keem is beginning to speak more openly about a defining moment in recent hip-hop discourse: the high-profile clash between Kendrick Lamar and Drake. Keem, Lamar’s cousin, had remained mostly silent during the exchange, a period that coincided with a lull in his own releases following The Melodic Blue in 2021. With the arrival of his new project Ca$ino and a return to interviews, he is now offering a measured perspective. In a conversation with Ross Scarano of The New York Times, he described the rivalry in athletic terms. “For me it felt like a sport,” Keem said, likening the moment to “two heavyweight fighters going at it in the ring.” The framing captures the scale of the competition, which extended beyond lyrical exchanges into broader questions of influence and chart performance. Both artists commanded widespread attention, turning each release into a cultural event. For Keem, the episode also carried a personal dimension, given his proximity to Lamar. He suggested that support from “the greatest artist of all time,” as he described his cousin, has reinforced his own creative direction and confidence. That backing, he indicated, continues to shape how he approaches his work.

Tracks like “Good Flirts,” which features Lamar, have not maintained a sustained presence on the charts. The gap between projects, along with the project’s brevity, may have influenced its reception among fans. Still, Keem has not shied away from addressing criticism directly. “not bout to keep pretending like I’m not the best n**… Not going no where don’t worry I’m mad now,” he wrote, signaling a more confrontational stance. The response suggests an artist intent on asserting his place, even as expectations continue to evolve.
