New 'Aladdin' Film Stars Will Smith As The Genie
XXXTENTACION Murder Suspect Granted $10K For Private Investigator
Disney gave fans a first-look at the live-action version of the 1992 animated film Aladdin on Thursday (October 11). The film stars Will Smith as the genie, who was originally voiced by the late Robin Williams.
Though we (understand- ably) don’t get to see Smith in the trailer, we do see director Guy Ritchie’s take on the cave of wonders, where Al- addin — the diamond in the rough — finds the magic lamp.
WILL SMITH
It’s been nearly four months since XXXTENTACION was fatally shot. Over the past few months, the police have ar- rested and charged four sus- pects.
On Wednesday (October 10), a judge reportedly granted suspect Dedrick D. Williams $10,000 to hire an investigator. The state of Florida will provide the money. According to The Blast, Williams wants to determine if the evidence investigators have gathered proves he com- mitted a crime.
Williams explained to the
XXXTENTACION
judge he didn’t have the money
to hire a private investigator himself, but his lawyer found one who would help build a de- fense by interviewing and tracking witnesses.
Williams was also granted another $20,000 in order to hire an electronic evidence ex- pert to look into the cell tower analysis as well as computer and cell phone forensics.
While XXXTENTA- CION’s murder case is still ongoing, the late Florida rap- per’s mother, Cleo Bernard, recently teamed up with Art by Bankrupt to raise funds for the XXX Foundation, Inc.

R&B Singer Kehlani Reveals Pregnancy On Social Media
Headline Rolling Loud
Los Angeles 2018
Given Kehlani’s well-doc- umented love/hate affair with social media, revealing a preg- nancy was probably the last thing her loyal fanbase ex- pected to see on this tranquil Friday (October 12).
But such is life for the 23- year-old R&B star.
“The decision to share this with the world was a tough one, but i really want to expe- rience the freedom and joy any normal pregnant person feels,” she explained on Twitter. I don’t want to hide. I want to walk around belly out every- where. ME AND MY SHORTY OUT HERE!”
And the GRAMMY-nomi- nated artist saved the in-
“I’ve always been very open with you all about my personal adventures & accomplish- ments... this was the HARD- EST to hide. If you know me, you know I’ve dreamt about motherhood since I was very young. When asked what my goals are, it’s always the idea of a big healthy happy family & whatever comes along is a plus. I am so honored to be given this gift by spirit, creator, and an amazing partner whom I trust with my body and life after a very traumatic experi- ence that had me afraid of in- teracting with men as a whole for what I was sure would be forever (I’ll tell that story when it’s time).

Cops Called After RZA Flips Out On Hospital Staff
Prince's Estate Insists Donald
RZA reportedly rushed his son to the emergency room at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles on Saturday morning (October 13). Accord- ing to TMZ, police were called to the scene after the Wu- Tang Clan mastermind let loose on the ER staff for not properly taking care of his child.
He was allegedly so irate, a hospital supervisor was com- pelled to call in authorities. By the time the cops arrived, RZA had stopped screaming and al- ready collected himself. Police saw no reason to cite him for any wrongdoing and soon left. RZA and his son stayed be- hind at the hospital, although there are no details on the child’s medical condition.
RZA and the rest of the Wu are heading to Australia in De-
Trump Rain"
Prince would likely roll over in his grave if he heard Donald Trump using his music at his political rallies. Therefore, the Prince Es- tate has taken measures to pre- vent 45 from blasting “Purple Rain” during his events.
According to the Star Trib- une, the Prince Estate issued a statement via Twitter.
“The Prince Estate has never given permission to President Trump or the White House to use Prince’s song and have requested that they cease all use immedi- ately,” the statement read.
The message was reportedly

longtime Prince associate Jeremiah Freed — other- wise known as Dr. Funken- berry — and it was retweeted by Prince’s half- brother, Omarr Baker.
Trump played the song during a rally in South Haven, Mississippi just last week.
This has becoming a grow- ing trend among artists of sim- ilar stature. Steven Tyler’s lawyer fired off cease and de- sist letters after Trump played several of Aerosmith’s songs, while The Rolling Stones also issued a letter during the 2016 campaign after Trump used “Start Me Up.”
