We hate it had to be Krispity Krunchity Karrueche to get dragged to the musty pits of Hell by her eyebrows after dissing Blue Ivy while hosting 106 & Park. But it was. And the BeyHive stinging that followed (FOR HOURS) was nothing short of legendary.
Hit the flip for a look back at quite possibly the greatest BeyHive dragging ever.
This week Gabrielle Union revealed she is covering the March issue of Women’s Health Magazine. The 44-year-old actress posts up in a white one piece for most of the spread, where she reveals she doesn’t worry too much about diet and exercise but tries to keep things under control.

Khloe Kardashian’s been rolling tough with Tristan Thompson for the last few months — despite the fact that he was already in the midst of welcoming a son with his ex-girl Jordan Craig when they first hit it off.
Khloe said she could deal and that she just wanted to keep the situation drama-free…but lil Baby Prince Oliver is here now and reality has set in.
Tristan is a new father, and a ball player with an already busy schedule…so he doesn’t exactly have as much time to hit up the LA party scene or snuggle up and do SnapChat faces with Khloe these days. Tristan recently failed to show up for something or other Khloe wanted him around for, and it’s apparently making KhloMoney feel a way…
As a source close to the action details in next week’s issue of Star Magazine:
“Khloe adores Tristan, but he really dropped the ball this time. As a first time father, Tristan’s got a lot on his plate, but Khloe thinks making time for each other has got to become a priority going forward.”
Khloe really should have known what she was getting into hopping into a situation with a man fresh out of a long-term relationship with a baby on the way — and his FIRST child, no less. We suspect Khloe’s just a rebellious, running from responsibility phase this baller is going through, and she will soon either bow out or get left out.
A shoplifter in Great Britain decided to get creative with her theft attempt earlier this week…but her art skills left a lot to be desired.
According to MailOnline, 18-year-old Saffron Curtiss-McGinty entered a B&M Bargains store with a child’s buggy. Inside, she had dressed a stuffed dog as a baby, then covered the face of the dog with a nude-colored bra, which she had drawn a face on in an attempt to make it look like a “real baby.” Let’s take a look at how she did:
Somehow, security wasn’t fooled by the creative attempt. She was stopped at the store’s exit, and officers found scented candles, sweets and an electric toothbrush hidden in the stroller.
After being stopped and her goods discovered, she slapped a store manager in the face, just for good measure.
Needless to say, she was arrested and charged with theft and assault. We’re not guessing she’ll have too strong a defense for this one in court…

Baby Ella Grace arrived about two weeks ago, and Keshia Knight Pulliam is finally comfortable enough back at home with her baby to return to her Kandidly Keshia podcast. Keshia posted a new episode Friday all about her birth experience, which included at least one strange encounter with an “older little white lady — about 70” who was assigned as her lactation specialist. Pulliam described how the woman approached her offering her information about government assistance!
Via Daily Mail reports:
‘We have some great programs that you may want to take advantage of that you may need … um, WIC is a great program.’
‘So I guess she saw this little black girl with the little baby by herself and on the door, I didn’t realize that they’d put like a faux last name and the last name was Brown,’ said Pulliam. ‘So I guess she saw “Miss Brown” and was like, ‘She probably needs some WIC’ and insurance services.
Pulliam said she cut the woman off in telling her, ‘Ma’am, I have excellent insurance but thank you.’
Keshia mentioned that while she understands that the hospital workers have an obligation to communicate ‘the services that are offered,’ she was offended that the woman presumed she was in need of the specific options she mentioned. Do you think she overreacted?
She is absolutely right that it was that woman’s job to inform her of services offered, but what we are more alarmed by is Pulliam’s claims that the woman didn’t want to touch her.
She didn’t want to touch me – [specialists will typically] guide your boob, show you how to hold it, put it in the baby’s mouth, [but] this lady was not trying to touch my little brown boobie – not at all,’ said Keisha.
Keisha eventually requested a different lactation specialist. Would you have done the same thing?
Sadly, we’ve lost a piece of Black history during this month of celebration and remembrance. The honorable Judge Elizabeth Riggs became the first Black woman judge in the city of San Diego in 1979. She remained the only Black woman judge until 2001.
She passed away this past Tuesday after suffering 7 long years with a rare pancreatic cancer according to the San Diego Union-Tribune.
R.I.P. Judge Riggs. Thank you for your service. Hopefully your life will inspire other Black girls and boys to seriously consider sitting on the bench. Lord knows we need it now more than ever.

As disappointed as we are in the terrible choice of words our nation’s President used Wednesday to commemorate Black History Month we are incredibly proud to see that there are white people eloquent and intelligent enough to address the reality of race in America.
San Antonio Express reporter Jabari Young spoke with the Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich about what Black History Month means to him and boy do we agree with what he had to say!
“Well, it’s a remembrance, and a bit of a celebration in some ways. It sounds odd because we’re not there yet, but it’s always important to remember what has passed and what is being experienced now by the black population. It’s a celebration of some of the good things that have happened, and a reminder that there’s a lot more work to do. But more than anything, I think if people take the time to think about it, I think it is our national sin.
OUR NATIONAL SIN. A country whose material wealth was born out of slave labor — people stolen from their native lands, taken to a strange place, separated from their families, treated less than human. We can’t agree more. Can you.
Pop continues by challenging people who feel it’s divisive to even discuss race:
It always intrigues me when people come out with, ‘I’m tired of talking about that or do we have to talk about race again?’ And the answer is you’re damned right we do. Because it’s always there, and it’s systemic in the sense that when you talk about opportunity it’s not about ‘Well, if you lace up your shoes and you work hard, then you can have the American dream.’ That’s a bunch of hogwash.
Hogwash is a good way to put it. Especially when you have people like Ben Carson and Bill Cosby who seem to believe that everyone can achieve anything despite the challenges put in front of them.
Pop knows better. Pop knows all about white privilege and isn’t afraid to talk about it:
If you were born white, you automatically have a monstrous advantage educationally, economically, culturally in this society and all the systemic roadblocks that exist, whether it’s in a judicial sense, a neighborhood sense with laws, zoning, education, we have huge problems in that regard that are very complicated, but take leadership, time, and real concern to try to solve. It’s a tough one because people don’t really want to face it.
One of the best parts of Pop’s commentary is when he calls out Trump for all his lies and disparaging comments about President Obama and how much his rhetoric is responsible for perpetuating racism in this country:
And it’s in our national discourse. We have a president of the United States who spent four or five years disparaging and trying to illegitimatize our president. And we know that was a big fake. But still, [he] felt for some reason it had to be done. I can still remember a paraphrase close to a quote “investigators were sent to Hawaii and you cannot believe what they found.” Well, that was a lie. So if it’s being discussed and perpetrated at that level, you’ve got a national problem. I think that’s enough.”
Seriously… He touched nearly every aspect of the conversation about race in this nation that we ALL need to be having on a regular basis. What was your favorite thing about what Popovich said?
Just because the NFL season is over doesn’t mean that you won’t be hearing from Colin Kaepernick. The “controversial” QB is continuing to spread knowledge and consciousness to an increasingly ignorant American society.
Black History Month is in full effect on his ‘gram.

Rise Up! “Real Time with Bill Maher” Friday was LIT overall, but one of our favorite parts had to be the “Cheer No Evil/New Rules” segment where Maher pledged his allegiance to the Atlanta Falcons because he hates the Trump loving Patriots.
Can’t say that we blame him.

It’s nearly impossible to clown Beyonce (who embodies flawlessness) but Twitter found a way with the hilariously petty #PoorBeyonce wave that marked the only time we all laughed AT Beyonce instead of Michelle or any other slanderable child of Destiny.

A brilliant young woman whose story has been compared to the “Hidden Figures” tale of Kathryn Johnson, Dorothy Vaughn and Mary Jackson, is making national headlines.
Tierra Guinn who boasts a 5.0 GPA at M.I.T., is already working at NASA as a Rocket Structural Design and Analysis Engineer at just 22-years-old. According to Guinn her mother helped nurture her intelligence by giving her math equations to solve starting at when she was just 6-years-old.
Now as an adult she’s fulfilling her dream of becoming an aerospace engineer. Her story models that of Mary Jackson who was played by Janelle Monae in “Hidden Figures”, and was a NASA engineer as well.
Guinn, whose career trajectory seems like a sequel to the much-acclaimed “Hidden Figures” movie, has been aspiring to become an aerospace engineer since she was a child.
Her mom, who noticed her daughter’s skills from a young age, made sure to Guinn stayed sharp by putting her intelligence to use…at the supermarket.
“When [my mom and I] would go to the grocery store, she would get me to clip coupons [and] put it in my coupon organizer,” Guinn told WBRC News. “By the time we got to the register, I’d have to calculate the exact total, including tax. And I did that since I was six years old.”
“One day I saw a plane fly by and I just had this realization, ‘huh, I can design planes. I’m going to be an aerospace engineer,”’ Guinn said.
She chose all of her middle school classes accordingly and commuted an hour to go to the high school that would best prepare her for the future.
Now, Guinn will soon be graduating from MIT with a 5.0 and is clearly on a path to success. She said she’d advise young girls looking to follow in her footsteps to expect obstacles throughout their journey.
“You have to look forward to your dream and you can’t let anybody get in the way of it,” she said. “No matter how tough it may be, no matter how many tears you might cry, you have to keep pushing. And you have to understand that nothing comes easy. Keeping your eyes on the prize, you can succeed.”
Congrats Tierra! We love to see inspiring stories about black women in S.T.E.M. We previously reported on Jessica Matthews, a black female CEO of renewable energy tech startup Uncharted Play who raised $7 million for her business.
Trump wants to change HBCUs for the better supposedly…
According to Buzzfeed News, Cheeto Mussolini is promising to sign an executive order regarding historically black colleges and universities, according to close sources who attended last week’s “listening session” in commemoration of Black History Month aka African American Month Bullisht. The three sources with knowledge of the executive order claim Paris Dennard, a political commentator who works on strategic communications for the Thurgood Marshall College Fund, brought the matter regarding all historically black colleges and universities during the Uncle Tom meeting.
The site claims the Chump-in-Charge praised Dennard for defending him recently on CNN and all over the “liberal bias” news. “Paris has done an amazing job in a very hostile CNN community,” Trump said, deriding CNN as “fake news” he no longer watches. “He’s all by himself — seven people and Paris. I’ll take Paris over the seven,” Trump said to laughter.
According to sources at the meeting, Trump asked what “the Harvard” of HBCUs was. At least three people in the room affiliated with the school said Howard University, located a short distance from the White House in DC. Trump asked how Howard was doing fiscally, with enrollment, and how it had done under President Obama. Sources claim he was “unhappy” on how Obama neglected HBCUs during his administration.
There’s no clear explanation of exactly what the hell the executive order will actually do but sources remain hopeful. Trump clearly wants to one-up Obama and “help the black community” but we ain’t buying what he’s selling.
What do you think of the HBCU executive order?
