Porsha Williams is stepping into a new chapter of her love life. During her appearance at CultureCon 2025 in New York City on October 5, the Real Housewives of Atlanta star revealed that she’s currently talking to both a man and a woman just months after finalizing her divorce from Simon Guobadia. “I’m talking to two people right now — one is a man and one is a woman,” Williams shared during a candid conversation at the event. “They’re both really nice, and I’m just seeing what feels right for me.” The revelation marks the first time Williams has publicly discussed being romantically involved with a woman. The reality star said she’s in a space of exploration and healing, adding that she’s open to new experiences after navigating a highly public breakup earlier this year. Williams said she “really just wanted to make sure that these were normal people” following her divorce. “What I talked about with my therapist the other day was — I’m having a hard time opening up because they’re not narcissists,” she said. “And guess what narcissists do? They love bomb you, they do everything, they look perfect, they mirror you. And these people are not.” Finalizing The Divorce: Williams finalized her divorce from Guobadia in June 2025 after nearly two years of marriage. The split made headlines after she described her ex husband as a “narcissist” and accused him of being controlling during their relationship. Now, the 43-year-old TV personality says she’s focusing on happiness and authenticity. “I’m learning not to box myself in,” she said. “Love is love, and I’m just open to what feels good and what’s real.” View this post on Instagram A post shared by HOLLYWOOD UNLOCKED (@hollywoodunlocked)

A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie and Future are making headlines after their teams reportedly got into a major fight at a Tokyo nightclub. The altercation went down on Friday, October 3rd, during the Magic City Takeover event at Zouk Japan, which was supposed to be a night filled with music, champagne, and celebration. Instead, it turned into a full-blown brawl that left the club wrecked and money scattered everywhere. TMZ Hip Hop obtained video of the chaotic aftermath, showing the trashed venue and partygoers running for safety. Future wasn’t at the event, but A Boogie was seen in bright yellow Air Jordan 4 Retro Lightning sneakers, standing on a platform in the middle of the commotion. Witnesses said he appeared to be searching for something to throw as the chaos unfolded. In the clip, someone can also be heard yelling, “put the bottle down,” as the situation grew increasingly tense. It’s still unclear what triggered the fight, but people who were inside the club claim A Boogie’s crew was the most aggressive during the altercation. Despite the damage and the intense scene, no arrests have been reported. Both artists were in Japan for the Force Festival, a massive multi-artist event that also featured Metro Boomin, Central Cee, Trippie Redd, Sexyy Red, Latto, and Polo G. The two rappers had previously worked together on the track “Somebody,” released last year, but after this incident, fans doubt they’ll be performing it together anytime soon. TMZ reached out to both Future’s and A Boogie’s teams for comments, but neither side has responded. For now, fans are left wondering what exactly went down that night and whether this incident will create lasting tension between the two camps.

In September, DaBaby ignited a firestorm after recreating the stabbing of Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska in a music video filmed on a Charlotte train. The depiction, meant as an artistic statement, drew swift backlash from audiences who deemed it insensitive to a devastating real-life event. Yet the controversy took an unexpected turn as local authorities appeared more receptive to DaBaby than many had expected. According to the New York Post, DaBaby recently met with Mecklenburg County Sheriff Garry McFadden. An Instagram post captured the encounter, showing the two sharing a light-hearted moment as DaBaby flashed a peace sign. The caption hinted at potential collaboration: “Yesterday, Sheriff McFadden sat down with DaBaby to discuss important issues and potential collaborations. Stay tuned to what’s cooking up.” While the details remain unclear, speculation suggests the conversation may have touched on community safety and local initiatives. DaBaby’s Tribute Sparks Backlash Over Ethics The meeting follows DaBaby’s release of “SAVE ME,” a song dramatizing Zarutska’s death. In the video, he is shown intervening in an attempted murder, ending with a screenshot of a GoFundMe for Zarutska’s family, which has raised more than $471,000. Though framed as a tribute, many viewers criticized the video as exploiting grief for artistic purposes, highlighting the delicate balance between homage and controversy. Local transit authorities also entered the fray. The Charlotte Area Transit System (CATS) confirmed that DaBaby’s team had not received permission to film on the city’s light rail, prompting their swift removal. The clash underscores the challenges artists face when incorporating real-world tragedies into creative projects, particularly in public spaces.

Kodak Black has never shied away from controversy. But this time, he’s speaking for himself. After months of whispers about alleged drug use, the 27-year-old artist took to Instagram Live to push back. He addressed the speculation directly and in his own unmistakable voice. “I eat good… high or not… I don’t be on no f*cking meth,” Kodak said, shutting down claims that he’s been using methamphetamine. Though he admitted to having experimented with the substance in the past, he argued that traces of similar chemicals are found in far more common places. “There’s meth in every drug… For people who drink liquor, smoke weed; for those who partake in anything, y’all don’t know what’s in the ingredients,” he explained. He then added, “Mind your own business, for real for real… Y’all really just want to have something against me.” The remarks followed growing concern about Kodak’s health. This was sparked by a freestyle on On The Radar, where he mentioned a “young n**** with a meth habit.” Soon after, a viral video appeared to show him drinking lean while behind the wheel. This prompted fresh debate online. His lawyer, Bradford Cohen, quickly stepped in to clear the air. He insisted the liquid in question was “just juice,” an attempt to quiet the rumors swirling around the rapper. Kodak weathers scrutiny, stays focused on music For Kodak, the public scrutiny is as relentless as it is personal. While parts of the hip-hop community say they worry about him, he sees much of the attention as thinly veiled criticism. His journey—a mix of raw talent, run-ins with the law, and tabloid fascination—has often played out in public. This reveals the uneasy balance between fame and privacy in modern rap culture. Still, his career shows no signs of slowing down. Kodak is rumored to be working with Drake on a track titled “Skies Parted,” expected to appear on Drake’s upcoming album ICEMAN. If the collaboration materializes, it would mark their first official release together. This would be a sign that despite the noise, Kodak remains focused on the music that made him a star.

The swift rise of artificial intelligence has ushered in a new—and increasingly divisive—chapter for pop culture. This includes AI-generated videos that recreate the likeness of celebrities, both living and long gone. One recent viral example shows the late 2Pac casually shopping at a Target. This scene is so eerily lifelike that it’s both fascinating and deeply unsettling. While many marvel at the technology, others see it as crossing a moral threshold. They argue that reviving public figures without consent is done for entertainment’s sake. The video, which depicts 2Pac chatting with fans, has left viewers unsettled by how easily AI can mimic human nuance. Social media quickly lit up with concern over the potential for misinformation. “I know some auntie on Facebook fell for this video saying PAC is alive… AI is scary man,” one commenter wrote. This summed up the unease rippling through online communities. Another warned, “AI is really getting out of hand. I guess people aren’t gonna care until crimes are being committed and assigned to the wrong individuals using AI but whatever, smh.” Beyond the shock factor, legal and ethical questions loom large. Some users pointed to past reports that 2Pac’s estate considered suing artists. They mentioned artists like Drake for allegedly using AI-generated imitations of his voice. “And his estate should sue them just like they sued Drake,” one viewer said. This echoed a broader call for safeguards to protect the legacies of deceased artists in an era when their images—and even their voices—can be artificially revived. The Broader Impact: Kobe Bryant and Beyond 2Pac isn’t the only cultural icon to receive a digital resurrection. A separate clip showing Kobe Bryant playing a recent version of NBA 2K has sparked similar outrage and reflection. For many, these simulated moments blur the boundary between tribute and exploitation. Even Snoop Dogg pushed back against an AI-generated song featuring 2Pac. He said, “I don’t know about an AI song with 2Pac because to me it ain’t real when I got real records with him.” He emphasized that authenticity—born from shared history and creative collaboration—cannot be replicated by code. As AI continues to shape entertainment, it’s forcing uncomfortable questions about authenticity, ownership, and consent. The technology promises innovation, but it also threatens to warp collective memory. It endangers the meaning of legacy. For artists—past and present—the stakes have never been higher. Whether these digital recreations are viewed as homage or exploitation may depend on how responsibly they’re used.

50 Cent was almost left speechless after receiving a custom-made, emerald-colored suit that had all his life’s work stitched inside. On Friday (Oct.3), Fif shared the touching moment on his Instagram page, writing, “Custom Boomerang suit [emoji] you remember that in the movie. @50centaction @bransoncognac @lecheminduroi.” The hand-crafted suit lining contains a complete discography of 50 Cent’s music, as well as the rapper’s work in film and television. The one-of-one suit comes from top NFL designer and stylist Tom Marchitelli. He’s dressed some of sports entertainment’s biggest stars, such as Shannon Sharpe, Saquon Barkley, Travis Kelce, and Rob Gronkowski. Marchitelli also jumped in Fif’s comment section to let everyone know that he is behind this one-of-a-kind look. “Custom emerald green suit by yours truly for 5⃣0⃣ aka Ferrari, F50 ” View this post on Instagram A post shared by 50 Cent (@50cent) 50 Cent Reacts Sharply to Diddy’s Four-Year Prison Term Sean “Diddy” Combs’ long and turbulent legal saga reached its conclusion this week, as the music mogul was sentenced to 50 months in federal prison. The punishment—just over four years—follows his conviction on two counts related to the illegal transportation of individuals for prostitution. The verdict marks a sobering moment for a man once seen as untouchable. It signals a dramatic turn in a career that has both shaped and scandalized hip-hop culture. As expected, longtime rival 50 Cent didn’t miss his moment. The rapper quickly took to social media to ridicule Diddy, posting, “Hey, to whoever was booking Diddy for a speaking engagement. I heard he won’t be able to make it. [shrugging emoji] I’m available! [grinning squinting emoji],” alongside a courtroom sketch showing Diddy in tears as his children addressed the court. The post reignited a feud that has long blurred the line between entertainment and animosity. As Diddy’s legal team prepares to return to court on Monday (Oct. 6), his sentence not only closes one chapter of his story. It also opens another.

On Thursday (Oct.2), Young Thug linked up with controversial Kick streamer Adin Ross. Throughout the nearly three-hour session, the pair discussed several things, including Thug’s new project, UY Scuti, his favorite artists, and more. However, it’s what the YSL rapper said about disgraced mogul, Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, that really caught people’s attention. The stream began awkwardly, with Young Thug entering and exploring Ross’s bedroom. Not long after, he comes across a bottle of baby oil and begins to approach the streamer playfully. “What the f*ck are you doing with that?” Ross exclaimed. “Aye, aye, aye! No baby oil over here, bro.” Young Thug backed off, returning the bottle to Ross’ dresser, where he said, “Free the OG Diddy, man.” Ross did appear to look shocked at Thug’s statement; however, he immediately joined in following up Thug’s words, saying, “Alright, free Diddy…If he said it, ‘I’m ‘Free Diddy,’ too.” Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem like Thug’s pleas were heard. The following day, Friday (Oct. 3), the Bad Boy CEO was found guilty on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution. Cassie’s Lawyers Issue Statement Following Diddy’s Sentencing: ‘Nothing Can Undo The Trauma’ Earlier this week, Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs was sentenced to 50 months—which translates to around four years— after being found guilty of two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution. It took nearly two months for the highly publicized trial to draw to a close, with Diddy ultimately receiving a guilty verdict back in July. According to a statement released by Cassie Ventura’s attorneys, Douglas Wigdor and Meredith Firetog (Wigdor LLP), “nothing can undo the trauma caused by Combs.” That said, Ventura’s attorneys believe that the sentencing “recognizes the impact of the serious offenses he committed.” The statement continued: “We are confident that with the support of her family and friends, Ms. Ventura will continue healing knowing that her bravery and fortitude have been an inspiration to so many.”

Along with being the queen of rap, Nicki Minaj is also a secret Swiftie, and recently praised Taylor Swift’s new album, Life Of A Showgirl. On Friday (Oct.3), Taylor Swift dropped off her twelfth studio album, and upon its first day of release, Life Of A Showgirl sold nearly 3,000,000 (exactly 2.7M). While many of the reviews were mixed among critics and fans, according to a series of X(formerly Twitter) posts from Nicki Minaj, Taylor’s writing is “going over people’s heads.” One of the rapper’s favorite tracks on the project so far is “Eldest Daughter.” In her opinion, “The writing is always so intentional & always resonates with the AUTHENTIC lone wolves.” She’s also obsessed with the title track, “The Life of a Showgirl,” which features “Espresso” singer Sabrina Carpenter. “I love how animated Sabrina came in on her verse,” the QUEEN rapper said. “She’s fully in character. She gets it.” Eldest daughter > the writing is always so intentional & always resonates with the AUTHENTIC lone wolves. — Nicki Minaj (@NICKIMINAJ) October 3, 2025 “Let’s Go Taylor!” Nicki Minaj wrote in an X post One of the tracks on the project, “Actually Romantic,” is rumored to be a diss toward British pop star Charli XCX, so it’s no shocker that it became an instant favorite with Nicki. In the song, Taylor sings, “I heard you called me boring Barbie /when the Coke’s got your brain.” Nicki referred to the singer as a “battle rapper” and told her to “go in for the kill.” She added, “Why all the SAG’s giving out lashings tonight? Oh wow. and #Cancelled is diabolical … Let’s go TAYLOR!!!!!!” Back in December 2023, Nicki revealed in another X post that she would collaborate with the singer “in a heartbeat.” She added, “The [SAGITTARIUS] QUEEN TAYLOR DESERVES!!!! PERIOD!!!!!” she wrote. “She takes months & years off then comes back with great music & fans who’ll never leave her!!!!”

(Photo by Ethan Miller/Getty Images for SHOWTIME) Diddy was convicted under ‘Mann Act’ The 55-year-old Bad Boy Records founder was convicted under the Mann Act, a federal law prohibiting the transportation of individuals across state lines for prostitution. While jurors acquitted Combs of more serious charges — including racketeering and sex trafficking — the guilty verdict on two counts of transportation secured the prison sentence. On Friday, Oct. 3, a federal judge handed down a sentence of four years and two months behind bars. In addition, Combs will be required to pay a $500,000 fine and serve five years of supervised release once his prison term concludes. The judge noted that Combs will receive credit for the roughly 13 months he has already spent in custody. The case stemmed from what prosecutors described as a pattern of abuse, violence, and exploitation surrounding Combs’ so-called “freak-offs” — private parties where sex workers were flown across state lines to participate.

A clip has begun circulating online from an interview Ayesha Curry did with the Call Her Daddy Podcast back in August. During the episode, Ayesha reveals she had a different plan for her life before marrying NBA star Stephen Curry. “I didn’t want kids…I didn’t wanna get married,” she told host Alex Cooper. “I thought I was gonna be a career girl and that’s it.” According to the Toronto native, she was “never the little girl that, like, dreamt about the wedding dress and all of that.” The pair initially met as teenagers in a youth group after Ayesha and her family relocated to Charlotte, NC. They would eventually reconnect years later in Los Angeles, and by 2008, they were officially dating. At the time, Ayesha had a budding acting career, and Steph was headed to the NBA. By 2011, the pair had married and begun building their family. Steph Curry’s wife, Ayesha, is facing BACKLASH for saying that she never wanted kids, she had her own career goals, and her husband doesn’t understand her pic.twitter.com/BZCe96peZc — Slime (@ItsKingSlime) October 3, 2025 “I love being a mom, but I love doing other things too,” Ayesha Curry Says As excited as she was to embark on this new path, there was hesitation about taking such a big leap; however, she loved Steph and had “never experienced anything else.” She continued, “I’d never felt any differently than, like, this is who I wanna spend the rest of my life with. And so we kinda just dove in.” A year after tying the knot, Ayesha gave birth to their first child, Riley, who is now 13 years old. The happy couple also shares three other children, Ryan (10), Canon (7), and, most recently, Caius, who was born in May 2024. As her world began to change quickly, Ayesha says “she didn’t even have time to think” about her wants and needs anymore. She added, “It’s so interesting. I spent my entire life, like, trying to work towards something, and then it kind of just disappeared, and I didn’t think twice about it.” That said, shortly after having Riley, she decided it was time to set goals for herself: “I have goals for myself. Like, this doesn’t feel right. I love being a mom, but I love doing other things too.”
