Trouble In Paradise For L&HH ATL’s Stevie J. And Joseline
JOSELINE And STEVIE J.
It looks like there is trouble in paradise for the Jordans.
Stevie J accused his Puerto Rican Princess, Jose- line Hernandez of cheating on him while he was in rehab.
Stevie seems to be in shock especially since he said he did so much to help Jose- line and her family. Now, ac- cording to Instagram, Stevie says he’s going to focus on his children, career and new busi- ness ventures.
Now that Love and Hip Hop Atlanta is airing, the cou- ple does seem a bit off. While, Stevie was forced into rehab and counseling, Joseline was wildin’ out, and gossiping. Stevie also teamed up with his ‘baby mama’ Mimi Faust in a business venture...that’s a bit odd, since Joseline at- tacked Mimi on the show’s Reunion last season.
Toni Braxton’s Bankruptcy Has Left Label With $16M Debt
Toni Braxton owed At- lantic Records $16 million, but her former record label won’t be getting a cent out of her due to her second bankruptcy case.
According to theJasmine- BRAND.com, she said health problems led to her having to cancel a series of Las Vegas shows, which led to her rack- ing up millions in debt.
She infamously filed for bankruptcy in 1996, and lost the battle with her record label. Now, her trustee sold off a bulk of her assets and she doesn’t owe her former record label.
Floetry Announces Summer Tour Dates
Reach Settlement
The second coming of Floetry has arrived.
Following their on-stage reunion late last year (2014) at London's The Clapham Grand, members Marsha Ambrosius and Natalie 'The Floacist' Stewart con- firmed that the duo would hit the road together in 2015.
The "perfect time" is now as the group has revealed U.S. tour dates for Summer 2015. The trek will launch on June 17 at the Hard Rock Rocksino Northfield Park in Ohio and make stops in cities like De- troit, San Francisco, New Or- leans (Essence Music Festival), Philly and New
Tracy Morgan and Wal- Mart reached a settlement agreement Wednesday, ending a lawsuit related to a crash on the NJ Turnpike last year that severely injured the actor.
The lawsuit was related to a multi-vehicle accident on June 7, 2014 on the New Jer- sey Turnpike.
Authorities said Wal-Mart truck driver Kevin Roper of Jonesboro, Georgia, appar- ently failed to slow for traffic ahead on the New Jersey Turnpike and then swerved to avoid a crash but instead his big rig smashed into the back of Morgan’s chauffeured limo bus.
Comedian James “Jimmy Mack” McNair was killed in the crash.

The terms and conditions of Wednesday’s settlement re- main confidential.

OWN Airs Docuseries ‘Livin Lozada
Chris Brown Says There Is No Beef
Karrueche Tran
has addressed the ridiculous beef be- tween her ex- boyfriend Chris Brown and her friend Tyson Beckford.
The 27-year-old literally shrugged it
off on Instagram by sharing a cartoon drawing of a person shrug- ging.
The picture was posted without a caption, but it’s pretty obvious what Tran is addressing. As previously re- ported, the whole thing started when Tyson posted a pic with Tran in Las Vegas over the holiday weekend.
Breezy, whom Tran broke up with in March after learning he fathered a child with another woman, re- sponded with a threatening tirade in a series of since- deleted tweets.
“I’m done all this internet talking blood. Be in Vegas soon,” he tweeted Sunday. “Keep playing ima f–k ya baby momma and then whoop yo child like he mine.”
And Flex & Shanice In July
OWN has announced that its new Evelyn Lozada docu- series “Livin’ Lozada” will pre- miere on July 11 at 9 p.m., followed by the return of “Flex & Shanice” at 10.
As previously reported, “Livin’ Lozada” follows Eve- lyn of “Basketball Wives” fame, and her 21-year-old daughter Shaniece. The real- ity star has moved on from the heartache of her highly publi- cized divorce from Chad Ochocinco and is engaged to Major League Baseball player Carl Crawford. The couple has a one-year-old son, Leo.

Denzel Washington Gives Dillard
University Students Four Life
Goals In Commencement Speech
Denzel and Dillard: A suc- cessful partnership that on Saturday (May 9) made for a special commencement for Dillard University's Class of 2015.
The commencement took place at the university's Rosa Freeman Keller Avenue of the Oaks, where 218 students re- ceived diplomas for their de- grees from the College of Business, College of Arts and Sciences, and Nursing. The highlight of the ceremony fea- tured Academy and Tony award-winning actor Denzel Washington as the keynote speaker.
Introduced by senior class vice president Joy Semien, Washington took to the podium to impart four goals for graduating seniors, and for the audience, as well: "Con- gratulations to all of you...
First: Put God first ... Sec- ond: Fail big... a dream with- out goals, is just a dream ... Third: You will never see a U-

Haul behind a hearse ... and Four: Say thank-you in ad- vance for what is already yours." He concluded with, "Don't aspire to make a living, and aspire to make a differ- ence." (Also during the speech, Washington very candidly said he once had a 1.7 grade point average in college.)
Afterward, Washington was bestowed an Honorary Doctorate of Humane Letters, before he had to leave early to give another commencement speech at Wiley College in Marshall, Texas; like Dillard, an HBCU (historically black colleges and universities).

Beckford responded Sunday by saying they were just having fun, but then posted a picture of himself at a gun range the next day on Instagram.
In the hours since, Brown has backed off of his threats. He took to Twitter today (May 26) to announce that there was no drama be- tween himself and Beckford.
“No drama!” he posted on the social media service. “People are really starting to make this s**t an issue. I can bearealoneandsaythatI was wrong for even pressing an issue.”
In another tweet, he seemed to joke that light- skinned brothers are extra sensitive, hence his overreac- tion.
