A ‘Training Day’ Prequel Is In The Works
A prequel of the crime thriller movie Training Day in the works—but sadly, Denzel Washington does not appear to be attached to it.

TRAINING DAY
LOS ANGELES, CA – Nipsey Hussle’s family was reportedly granted guardian- ship of his 10-year-old daugh- ter Emani. According to TMZ, a judge signed off on the decision earlier this week.
The judge evidently decided not to grant guardianship to the birth mother Tenisha Foster, who has been de- scribed by Hussle’s family as “unfit.”
The court said Nip’s family provided sufficient evidence for their petition. Subse- quently, the late MC’s siblings — Samantha Smith and Sam Asghedom — and his
mother Angelique Smith are now Emani’s guardians.
Lauren London, who has a 3-year-old son named Kross with the slain rapper, was also in court on Tuesday (October 15) to ask for guardianship over their son’s estate.
Although London and Nip’s family have never clashed when it comes to Kross, a judge ultimately de- termined London will be in charge of his finances. The child is reportedly expected to inherit roughly $1 million with another $1 million going to Emani.

Cuba Gooding, Jr. was first publically accused of sex- ual misconduct this past sum- mer when he allegedly groped a woman's breast at a rooftop bar in Manhattan.
