On Thursday, Biles made history at the 2024 Paris Summer Games by winning the gold medal in the women’s individual all-around final, becoming the third woman ever to claim this title twice. The only other women to achieve this feat were Larisa Latynina in 1956 and 1960 and Věra Čáslavská in 1964 and 1968.

Biles started strong but stumbled slightly on the uneven bars, temporarily placing her in second behind Brazil’s Rebeca Andrade. However, like the true champion she is, Biles didn’t let this minor setback derail her.

She delivered a stunning performance on the balance beam and then wowed the audience with her floor routine, sealing her victory like the boss she is. Biles’ incredible comeback on the beam and floor showcased her unparalleled talent and mental toughness.

Joining Biles on the podium were two of her fellow gymnasts and friends. Rebeca Andrade, who earned the silver medal, dazzled the judges with her entertaining performances on vault and floor. This marks her second consecutive all-around silver, following her success in Tokyo.

Meanwhile, Suni Lee, of Team USA and the 2020 Olympic all-around champion, captured the bronze, earning her second straight Olympic all-around medal.

Biles’ victory in Paris is a huge milestone. Not only did she become the first woman to win non-consecutive Olympic gold medals in the individual all-around, but she also secured her third Olympic gold medal in the women’s artistic gymnastics individual vault final.

Her performances on the vault once again proved why she’s the best to ever do it. She executed the Biles II aka Yurchenko double pike vault—with a difficulty score of 6.400, earning 15.700 points. Her second vault, the Cheng vault, landed her a 14.900 score with a difficulty level of 5.600. Biles’ average score of 15.300 ensured her position at the top of the podium, adding another golden chapter to the Book of Biles.

Angela White, aka Blac Chyna, has certainly turned over a new leaf and she’s enjoying it with her new love. The multi-hyphenate has had her fair share of stress when it comes to being a public figure. However, in recent years, Blac Chyna’s kids have inspired her to make changes in her life.

In an exclusive interview with Extra, White updated her fans on her career, her relationship, and her two children, King and Dream. This update comes after the reality TV star went through a public transformation. As BOSSIP previously reported in 2022, Blac Chyna was in a nasty court battle with the Kardashian Klan. Additionally, Rob Kardashian and Tyga, Blac Chyna’s kids’ fathers, claimed she was not a full-time mother.

You may recall that the White took to Instagram to state that she was not receiving child support from her kids’ fathers. In response, Tyga said he pays his son’s school tuition and houses him Monday through Saturday. In a rare occurrence, Rob popped out with a comment. Much like Tyga, he claimed that he pays for Dream’s school tuition, extracurricular activities, and medical expenses. Rob also claims that he has Dream Tuesday through Saturday.

Many months after the debacle, Blac Chyna reappeared as a changed person. She turned to religion and announced that she dissolved her fillers in addition to butt and breast reductions. The rapper also denounced her stage name, Blac Chyna, and returned to her birth name, Angela White. To wrap up her transformation, she also decided to get sober and left behind alcohol and other substances.

Now that the chaos in her life has settled, White is focused on what is really important — her children. In January, BOSSIP reported that the mother of two now has 50/50 custody of both of her children. Post-transition to Angela White, she states that she is able to balance her career and being a mother a lot better.

“Making time for things that are important — my kids are important. I found a way to really balance it out really good,” she told Extra.

King and Dream’s mom also encourages her kids to pursue anything they want to do. She states that Dream is making music and has just released a single.

“It’s so good. She’s just a natural, and I love that she’s into music and doing her own thing.” She continued, “I want it to be something she wants to do. I don’t want to exploit my kids, King or Dream.”

As for King, the 11-year-old loves playing soccer and his mom states that he is excelling and phenomenal in the sport. Though White is focused on nurturing her children, she still has time for a little romance. She began dating Derrick Milano in 2023, and the couple has been going strong ever since. She told Extra that he is a great support to her and even helped to produce Dream’s music. She also hinted at possible wedding bells.

“Oh, yeah. Now, where my ring at?” she joked.

For now, the socialite is enjoying her life as it is. She is also gearing up for the airing of her Lifetime movie with LeToya Luckett, “I Thought My Husband’s Wife Was Dead,” in which she plays the character Gina. Fans can also catch the star on BET’s College Hill: Celebrity Edition.

A$AP Rocky and Rihanna‘s youngest son Riot Rose Mayers just celebrated his first birthday! And the rapper is a proud papa.

Pretty Flacko took to social media to share some adorable photos of the superstar couple’s baby boy and we have no choice but to stan.

The “D.M.B” artist never shies way from sharing how much he loves his role as father. This past Father’s Day, luxury designer Bottega Veneta tapped A$AP for a campaign all about the most important title he carries.

“This special moment captures the vulnerability, love and interaction between my sons and I, I’m proud 2 be the man they call Dadda,” he said in a post.

Rihanna and Rocky celebrated Riot with a party in the singer’s hometown of Barbados with friends and family.

The coolest parents in the world seem to be loving their life as a family and taking every moment to celebrate their children. Earlier this summer, the pair threw a fun affair for their oldest son, RZA, who is now two years old.

Though the internet has been speculating about a third child for Rihanna and Rocky, neither of them confirmed as much. The Queen of the house of Fenty seems to be busy further solidifying her empire.

Fans seem to be waiting with bated breath for a new Rihanna album but as more years go by, it seems that the “Anti” singer has not made her way into the studio. They do say that doing the same thing and expecting different results is the definition of insanity. Maybe the Bad Gal Riri fans should consider moving on.

The microphone may not be seeing much of our girl but when it comes time to turn a look, Rihanna never misses. Her latest Puma Creeper release further cemented her relationship with the athleisure wear company and her newest Savage X Fenty “Soft n Savage” capsule collection went live on August 1.

Following Cardi B‘s bombshell breakup, documents confirm child support requests for her three Offset offspring as a source revealed reasons for divorcing with a Bodak baby bump. The marriage reportedly became “more of a distraction than support,” the insider said.

Cardi B Requests Child Support & Primary Custody Of 3 Offset Offspring, Source Reveals THIS Is Why Divorce Was ‘A Long Time Coming’

Pregnancy and rocky relationship rumors followed Cardi and Offset for months, but the shocking news only sparked more speculation. The mogul mama’s baby on the way is her third mini Migo with Offset, and she already has a co-parenting plan laid out.

TMZ secured more details about the divorce from Cardi’s court filing. The “W.A.P.” rapper requested child support for the trio and primary custody. Cardi previously praised Offset as a dedicated dad, but it looks like there’s no going back for the marriage.

The divorce docs cite “irreconcilable differences” for their split. If a prenuptial agreement was in place, Cardi’s legal team didn’t reference one. That leaves the court to handle the assets accumulated during the marriage. Cardi requested to divide their personal assets evenly, so things still sound pretty amicable.

Theories are still circulating about what prompted such a drastic decision on the baddie’s behalf. Someone close to Cardi reportedly spilled the tea on what led to the demise of the relationship, which was “not based on cheating rumors.”

Check out the reasons why Cardi and Offset’s marriage ending was “a long time coming” after the flip.

The ups and downs of Cardi B and Offset’s relationship had everyone talking since they secretly got married in 2017. She kept it a little too real sometimes about their ups and downs, but news of their divorce still came as a shock. According to PEOPLE, someone close to the situation answered the burning questions about why she filed for divorce while pregnant.

The former couple got past many of the common relationship issues, but the “irreconcilable” issues were reportedly deeper than alleged cheating. “Filing for divorce again wasn’t an easy decision” for Cardi, but “he just doesn’t support her like a husband should.”

“She has two kids already, is pregnant and is also a working mom. She’d love to have a great marriage too, but since it’s more of a distraction than support, she needs to end it,” the source said.

“It’s been a long time coming. It’s not just one issue. She’s matured a lot. She knows exactly what she wants her life to look like. She’s super focused on her kids and work,” they continued.

As the divorce documents imply, the soon-to-be exes “are still friendly and will co-parent” together. In addition to the bun in Cardi’s oven, she and Offset share daughter Kulture, 6, and son Wave, 2.

Through this difficult time, the insider praised Cardi as “incredibly strong and driven.” That is why she reportedly couldn’t continue the relationship once it became a liability.

“As a mom, she expects a partner that contributes fully and that puts the family first. This just wasn’t happening. “In general, he just doesn’t support her like a husband should. She needs good vibes and positive energy only in her life,” they revealed to the publication.

Echoing a statement from Cardi about the split, someone close to the situation claimed the divorce was “not based on cheating rumors, but rather has been a long time coming.”

YITTY‘s founder and CEO, Lizzo, has been holding it down and steering the brand’s growing popularity despite her ongoing legal battles.

The “About Damn Time” singer has been keeping it positive and continuing to get to the bag after claiming she was going to quit music and social media after extreme online bullying.

She would later clarify that she was simply quitting “giving any negative energy her attention.

“What I’m not going to quit is the joy of my life, which is making music, which is connecting to people, cause I know I’m not alone,” she said in a video. “In no way shape or form am I the only person experiencing that negative voice that’s louder than the positive.”

She continued,

“If I can just give one person the inspiration or motivation to stand up for themselves and say they quit letting negative people, negative comments win, then I’ve done even more than I could’ve hoped for. I’m going to keep moving forward and keep being me.”

Well, thankfully Lizzo has not left us and our YITTYs high and dry. We are so here for this Chlöe collab.

Phaedra Parks is returning to The Real Housewives of Atlanta but is she also leaving Married to Medicine because of some pettiness from her homegirl Dr. Heavenly Kimes?

That’s the question being asked by Reality TV Blurb, which reports that the 50-year-old attorney, who recently completed Season 11 of Married to Medicine, is said to be leaving the show following conflicts involving her ex-husband, Apollo Nida, and his wife, Sherien Almufti, during the series’ annual cast trip.

A report published by the Mad Beefs X account on July 29 claimed that things turned heated between Parks, Nida, and Almufti after the latter two allegedly received an invite to the cast trip from Dr. Heavenly Kimes which is shocking considering her close relationship with Parks.

According to the page, Parks got into “a huge argument with a lot of people and left the trip and the rest of the show’s filming.”

On Monday, The Neighborhood Talk provided further insight into the situation, revealing that a cast member deliberately invited Nida and Almufti to “confront” Parks during the trip. According to the report, Almufti allegedly “went off” on the seasoned peach holder during their intense confrontation. The heated encounter led to Parks losing her temper with the Married to Medicine production crew, resulting in her immediate resignation from the show.

Dr. Heavenly Addressed The Rumors On X

As speculation about Parks’ departure flooded the internet, Dr. Heavenly Kimes stepped in to clear the air about the rumors…. well sort of. During a Q&A live stream with fans, the reality TV star had this to say when asked if she invited Nida and his wife to the cast trip; 

“I know one thing. It’s a lie… part of it’s true but it’s a mixture of lies and truth… but ya’ll gotta watch Married To Medicine…”

She added;

“When we do show it, I’m gonna break it down like it’s never been broken before.”

How Long Were Apollo Nida And Phaedra Parks Together?

Parks and Nida married in 2009, but their relationship deteriorated due to Nida’s legal issues. Parks announced her decision to divorce Nida, the father of their two children, Ayden (9) and Dylan (6), in 2014 after five years of marriage, according to Bravo TV. They reportedly finalized their divorce settlement in 2017.

Nida, who had been sentenced to eight years in prison for fraud and identity theft in 2014, saw his sentence reduced by one year in March 2019. After his release, he was re-incarcerated at the Philadelphia Federal Courthouse in June for allegedly violating a condition of his release. 

What’s going on here? Do you think the rumors are true?

Young Dolph’s partner, Mia Jaye, recently attended a memorial for what would’ve been the slain rapper‘s 39th birthday. Additionally, she posted a sweet message on Instagram, showing the world that her love for him never dies. Young Dolph’s birthday, July 27th, was another reminder of a life taken too soon. However, like Jaye, many of his fans sought to celebrate.

As BOSSIP sadly reported, Memphis native rapper Young Dolph was gunned down in November 2021. He was patronizing a cookie shop in Memphis that he frequented when he was shot and killed. An autopsy revealed that he was shot 22 times. Many around the world mourned his death, including his two children and partner, Jaye.

Three years later, Jaye continues to remind his fans of the joy he gave her and their children on what would have been his 39th birthday. According to TheShadeRoom, the Atlanta Westside Cultural Arts Center held a “Spirit Of Dolph Heavenly Birthday Celebration” to recognize the fallen rapper’s birthday and life. Jaye and many others attended the event, wearing the color blue.

In addition to attending the Atlanta event, Jaye honored Young Dolph’s birthday with an Instagram post. The post included several pictures of the couple and family, with the last taken shortly before he died

In the caption of the post, the mother of two stated, “Today I will live in gratitude, celebrating & cherishing every single memory we created in life together… thank you for every lesson you taught us, sacrifice you made for us and for the beautiful spirit you graced the world with… May we continue to feel your presence through your absence… and may our eternal love reach you where your spirit resides… Happy Heavenly Birthday my love…”

Mia Jaye Continues To Fight For Justice In Young Dolph’s Death

Though the investigation of Young Dolph’s death has led to the arrests of several men believed to be involved with the murder, Mia Jaye is dissatisfied with the Memphis justice system. A trial was set to begin in June 2024 but has been pushed back to September.

Jaye, who does not seemingly use Instagram often, used the platform to call for justice in her partner’s death. Local Memphis stated the trial was delayed due to the defense attorney’s request. They asked for more time to review the case, and the Memphis prosecutors agreed, much to Jaye’s dismay.

Jaye’s Instagram profile has three pinned posts where she is seeking peace and justice in the case. In one post, she shared the contact information of authorities and law enforcement so that fans can call and advocate for Young Dolph and his family. In another post, Jaye shared her extreme frustration with the trial delay.

“For so long after losing Dolph, my focus was re-stabilizing myself, my household and nurturing my children emotionally, spiritually and mentally. As the case was happening, I noticed weird occurrences but tried not to worry because I placed my faith in the belief that JUSTICE would be had. But learning that faith, absent of works is dead, Ive been forced to change my position and fight (put in the work) for JUSTICE because it doesn’t seem like it’s gonna come automatic,” she wrote in the caption.

She also shared why she feels justice is being interrupted in Dolph’s case, including the changing of judges and possible corruption.

We will continue to keep Mia Jaye and her children in our thoughts.

After withdrawing shortly before the finals in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, Simone Biles is determined to succeed in the 2024 Paris Olympics. However, the gymnastics star suffered a leg injury that caused her to leave the floor for a period of time. Biles’ injury is proving to be minor, as she returned and performed some of the highest scores for the day.

According to ESPN, the gymnast performed her beam routine but had to seek out USA team doctor Marcia Faustin afterward. She was absent for a few minutes but returned to watch her teammates for a while. The outlet also stated that her coach, Cecile Landi, reported that Biles’ injury presented itself a few weeks before traveling to Paris, but it should not keep her from competing. Concerned fans can relax knowing that the gold medalist remains scheduled to compete in all events.

Audio picked up Biles saying that her calf was bothering her. Nevertheless, when the time for her floor routine arrived, she returned with a taped leg, ready to perform. She completed her routine, which is considered one of the hardest in the world, with no mistakes. After she left the mat, she met her other coach, Laurent Landi, with a hug.

“We told her to remind herself like she’s capable of doing it,” Cecile Landi said. “She knows she’s got it, and it’s OK, and then she did. So really excited for her,” Cecile stated.

Biles scored 14.600 for her floor routine. She also participated in the rest of the day’s events, including the vault, in which she scored 15.800, the highest score in the world this year. She also scored 14.733 on the beam and 14.433 on uneven bars, making her overall score 59.566.

“It was pretty amazing, 59.5,” her coach said. “Not perfect, so she can improve even … [but] just really good.”

Biles’ injury did not prevent the athlete from completing her skills, except for a skill she recently submitted to the International Gymnastics Federation on Friday, July 26th. She reverted to her original routine so as not to agitate her injury further.

All Of The Stars Came To See Simone

Though her husband, Jonathan Owens, didn’t know who she was before dating her, Biles is so popular that celebrities are rushing to see the star athlete compete. ESPN stated several stars could be seen in the stands, ready to cheer on the decorated gymnast. Tom Cruise, Snoop Dogg, Ariana Grande, and John Legend could be seen in the audience.

Celebrities are not the only ones starstruck. Many of the world’s best athletes have expressed excitement and are getting the chance to see Biles perform on the world’s biggest athletic stage. She has also been included in many promotional materials for this year’s Olympics. BOSSIP recently reported that Biles was the star of the introduction of the USA team, featuring Beyoncé.

You may recall that Biles received heavy support after pulling out of the Tokyo Olympics due to having the “twisties.” Leg injury or not, Biles is ready to prove she still has it and that they say she is one of the best athletes in the world for a reason.

Keke Palmer has been a shining star in entertainment since childhood, and she credited Tyler Perry’s early support for helping her career.

At age 11, Palmer landed a pivotal role in Tyler Perry‘s Madea’s Family Reunion, playing Nikki, Madea’s foster daughter. This role not only showcased Palmer’s immense talent but also marked the beginning of a cherished relationship with Perry, who has been a significant influence on her career.

In a recent episode of her podcast, Baby, This Is Keke Palmer, the multi-talented actress reminisced about her time on the set of Madea’s Family Reunion. Palmer described the experience as feeling like being part of a family. The cast and crew were incredibly supportive, creating a nurturing environment for the young actress.

“Everybody felt like my aunties and uncles and cousins and just family and friends,” Palmer expressed to Perry. “That was a great experience.”

Palmer didn’t just highlight the familial atmosphere on set. She also expressed profound gratitude for Tyler Perry’s generosity. Perry went above and beyond to ensure that Palmer was fairly compensated for her work on the film.

“That was the first time that I have ever been in a movie, and it introduced this for me in business,” Palmer said. “And I thank you so much for this, where whatever the movie did you gave me extra money in the backend and that’s big.”

She continued, “I really wanted to point that out because that’s not something that people are always doing, and that was very early on in my career. I was no big name or anything like that. It was not necessarily something that was my birthright, but for that to happen in that movie and for it to have been such a success — that extra money, what it did for my family and how it allowed me to maintain my time in California, moving from Chicago, (IL). I mean we had nothing, and for you to do that it was just really amazing so I just wanted to mention that ‘cause I never forgot that.”

His efforts extended beyond the paycheck; Perry’s mentorship and guidance provided Palmer with invaluable insights into the film industry.

Tyler Perry’s early support laid a strong foundation for Palmer’s career. After Madea’s Family Reunion, Palmer went on to star in True Jackson, VP, where she earned $20,000 per episode, making her the fourth-highest-paid child star on television at the time according to The Richest. Her success on Nickelodeon was just the beginning.

Fast-forward to today, Palmer is a media mogul at the age of 30. She has founded KeyTV, a digital network that provides a platform for Black and brown creators. However, her accomplishments don’t stop there; she hosted the talk show Just Keke in 2014, and co-hosted Strahan, Sara and Keke from 2019 to 2020, earning a Daytime Emmy Award nomination for her work.

Currently, Palmer hosts the revival of the game show Password, for which she received a Primetime Emmy Award. She is also an author, a singer, and a new mom, adding even more accolades to her impressive resume. One thing is for sure: Keke Palmer is a force to be reckoned with, and she’s only just begun her journey.

According to TMZ, the super agent popped the question on Thursday and Adele couldn’t wait to say “yes!” Sources say the notoriously private couple only shared the good news with loved ones so far. The the 30 singer reportedly shared the good news with her family and friends immediately.

“Rich planned for the proposal to be in her hometown, and gave her an incredible four carat diamond ring. They celebrated with champagne at Chiltern Firehouse the following evening,” an insider revealed to The Sun.

The longtime lovebirds have been so close that rumors swirled about whether they might have already tied the knot. At the very least, it seemed like they did everything but get hitched. The power couple already blended families with Adele’s son Angelo from her previous marriage. The singer also previously praised Rich’s eldest child as her “stepdaughter,” and plans to have more children together.

The 36-year-old also referred to their coupledom as “husband” and “wife.”  There have been false alarms before, but this time sounds more like wedding bells.

The source added that, “Adele thinks it’s hilarious that fans reckon they’re already married. It’s been an in-joke. Now everyone is joking that she could make the ultimate wedding singer.”

Well, when you stay ready, you don’t have to get ready!

It’s unclear whether they will continue to keep the nuptials as private as their courtship. However, they’re expected to walk down the aisle with a massive wedding late next year. If they do the ceremony as big as the rock spotted on Adele’s finger, it’ll be impossible to miss.

Congratulations to Adele and Rich Paul!

Again?! The ex-husband of RHOA’s Phaedra Parks, Apollo Nida, went from trying to end his probation early to another arrest for allegedly assaulting his current wife.

Apollo and Phaedra’s reality TV relationship is over, but his drama and legal troubles are from finished. In Touch reports that his wife, Sherien Almufti, called the police on March 11 for an incident that allegedly escalated from an infidelity argument to a physical altercation. The 45-year-old is no stranger to run-ins with the law, but alleged violence is different for his long-running rap sheet.

Sherien Almufti Accuses Husband Apollo Nida Of Assault After Reported Argument About “Cheating On Each Other”

According to the police report, Sherien claimed she came home from a girls’ night out when the couple got into a heated disagreement. Apollo reportedly confronted Shirien with a video of her locking lips with another man. After verbally sparring about “cheating on each other,” she claims he got physical with her.

Apollo allegedly pulled her by the hair and pushed against a refrigerator before a “scuffle” reportedly ensued. Shortly after, Shirien claimed she ran to get help and while her husband left the scene. Security footage corroborated the argument to police, but surveillance cameras did not capture the alleged assault.

When Apollo returned to the home to speak to the cops, he told a very different story. He alleged that the extent of the physical incident was his attempt to snatch Shiren’s phone mid-argument. He admitted to successfully taking it despite her balling up on the floor to stop him. Apollo alleged that he gave the phone back after Shirien ran out of the home to call for help.

At the scene, the police report indicated that Shiren had no signs of bruises or a physical altercation and she turned down medical attention. Officers arrested Nida for domestic violence and simple assault. Hours later, Apollo secured his release on a $3,000 bond.

Last month, he had a hearing for the misdemeanor charge of “simple battery — family violence.” It is unclear whether he secured an attorney or issued a plea yet, but it seems like the couple is already working things out.

“It was a huge blow out between a married couple that has brought us much closer since then. We have worked through our issues and have been going to couples therapy. The end,” Shirien said about the assault allegations.

Apollo Nida’s Assault Arrest Follows Attempt To End Probation Early After Federal Bank Fraud Conviction

While it seems like the couple is in a much better place and getting some necessary help, it might add to Apollo’s legal complications. Just a few months before the reported incident, Apollo claimed he turned his life around in a request to cut his probation short.

As BOSSIP previously reported, Apollo received an eight-year federal prison sentence in 2014 for bank fraud. He faced up to 30 years behind bars, but reached a plea deal for his role in the scheme. Following his release in 2019, Apollo had to serve another five years of probation.

In 2023, months before the alleged domestic violence, Apollo requested to end his probation a year early. He claimed that he became an upstanding member of his community with volunteer work, a job on an MTV show with Shirien, and a stable home life, making him no risk to society.

However, the prosecutors didn’t see such a squeaky clean track record and opposed the petition. His probation officer reported that Apollo repeatedly violated by traveling to Miami Beach without permission and caught a charge for resisting arrest.

Between getting into trouble before the alleged assault of Shirien and still owing $1.9 million in restitution, the judge denied Apollo’s early release. The terms of his probation end this year, but he could have a new set of legal issues on his hand depending on how this assault case goes.
