Jay-Z’s family just expanded by one!

Over the weekend, the Empire State of Mind artist’s mother, Gloria Carter, said “I do” to the love of her life — Roxanne Wiltshire! That’s right, according to TMZ, the Carter family matriarch happily wed her longtime partner Sunday night in New York City, where the guest list was poppin!

In attendance at the gorgeous event were, of course, Jay-Z and Beyoncé, but also Bey’s own mother Tina Knowles-Lawson, Kelly Rowland, Tyler Perry, Corey Gamble, and Robin Roberts… And according to the outlet, the party apparently kept on rollin’ until 1:00 in the morning! Ch-ch-check out Bey’s stunning look for the event (below):

In photos obtained by TMZ, Gloria can be seen in an elegant white suit, while Roxanne opted for a stunning gown. See HERE! There’s certainly no denying the two look absolutely incredible together!

This all comes after Hova helped his mother come out in his 2017 track, Smile, in which he rapped about crying “tears of joy” when finding out his mother had fallen in love, and that he didn’t care “if it’s a him or a her” — he just wants to see her “smile through all the hate.” Listen to the emotional song (below):

We’re so happy for Gloria and Roxanne! Cheers to the newlyweds!

Halle Berry has a message for the haters.

Over the weekend, the Academy Award winning actress posted a nude, sun drenched photo of herself drinking wine on her balcony, and social media users were quick to add in their two cents. They should have just said thank you!

If you haven’t seen it yet, ch-ch-check it out (below): 

We are LOVING this energy! You have to admit she looks absolutely AMAZING at 56! Plus not giving any effs? Perfetto! However, while the majority of online chatter was positive, there was one Twitter troll in particular that took issue with her sexy snap:

“Imagine being in your 50s, still posting nudes for attention in menopause when you should be chilling with the grandkids. Aging with dignity is no longer a thing.”

Damn! It says a lot about a man when he thinks a woman not longer has any dignity while nude. Especially looking like THAT!

It’s safe to say NO ONE was about to stand for the user’s angry, patriarchy-infused whinging — certainly not Halle herself! In response, the X-Men actress clapped back with Tweet that “won the Internet”: 

“Did you guys know the heart of a shrimp is located in its head?”

You tell ‘em, Halle! Fans immediately began hyping up the Monster’s Ball actresses’ comeback, celebrating her in the replies:

“Ms. Berry I see you’re on 10 today…and I APPROVE.”

“And the shrimp of a man is located between that guys legs. The more you know!”

“You won the internet today with this clap back.”

“Girl!!!!!!!! You are an inspiration to many of us!!!!!!!!!!! We loveeeeee it!”

“That dude’s masculinity is so flaccid.”

“Why is this person so pressed ? Do and post whatever THE F$&% you want”

“Queen shutting the incels up every time with FACTS ONLY”

Over on Instagram, Halle posted the pic again, unapologetically captioning it:

“i do what i wanna do.”

Slay!

In the comments, a slew of celebrities came together to hype the mother of two up. Rapper Saweetie called her “The blueprint,” while actress Megan Good wrote: 

“Big Leo energy. ThatPart”

Kelly Rowland added, “YES!!!!” while Halle Bailey and Lena Waithe both dropped  clapping hand emojis.

We love to see it!

This all comes just two weeks after the Kidnap star bared her skin on the photo sharing app after a steamy shower, covering her chest with just her arms. She wrote at the time, “hump day self love.” See (below): 

Users were similarly positive then, commenting things like:

“You are beautiful”

“You are truly special one of the most beautiful in the world “

“An amazing Beauty!”

Michelle and Barack Obama appear to be one of the most solid and in-love couples ever, right? Well, just like any pair in a relationship, things weren’t always smooth sailing between them. In fact, it was so rough for the duo at one point the former first lady admitted she “couldn’t stand” her hubby for a whole decade!

During a roundtable conversation with Revolt TV, alongside Kelly Rowland, H.E.R., Winnie Harlow, and Tina Knowles-Lawson, Michelle explained it started when Barack was building his political career, and she was primarily looking after their very young daughters, Malia and Sasha:

“We don’t talk about how much work is required and how hard it is even when you are madly in love with the person, even when everything works out right. Bringing two lives together, it is one of the hardest things to do … People think I’m being catty by saying this — it’s like, there were 10 years where I couldn’t stand my husband. And guess when it happened? When those kids were little. And for 10 years while we’re trying to build our careers and, you know, worrying about school and who’s doing what and what, I was like, ‘Ugh, this isn’t even.’”

Related: Kim Kardashian Opens Up About Kids & A Fourth Marriage After Kanye Divorce

The Light We Carry author added:

“And guess what? Marriage isn’t 50/50, ever, ever. There are times I’m 70, he’s 30. There are times he’s 60, 40, but guess what? 10 years – we’ve been married 30. I would take 10 bad years over 30 – it’s just how you look at it. And people give up . . . ‘Five years; I can’t take it.’”

For Michele, cutting her losses wasn’t an option. Instead she put in “the work” amid the hard moments of a relationship. She also stressed how important it is “to know your person,” explaining:

“Do you like him? I mean you could be mad at him but do you still look at him and go, ‘I’m not happy with you, but I respect you.’ ‘I don’t agree with you but you’re still a kind, smart person.'”

Despite the period where Michelle detested Barack, the couple clearly weathered the storm and are stronger than ever! They even celebrated their 30th anniversary in October, with the former president penning a sweet tribute to his wife on Instagram that read:

“Miche, After 30 years, I’m not sure why you look exactly the same and I don’t. I do know that I won the lottery that day—that I couldn’t have asked for a better life partner. Happy anniversary, sweetheart!”

She also wrote on Twitter:

“Happy anniversary to the man I love! These last 30 years have been an adventure, and I’m grateful to have you by my side. Here’s to a lifetime together. I love you @BarackObama.”

Awww! You can ch-ch-check out the entire conversation with Michelle (below):

Jessie James Decker will not tolerate any hate from online trolls – especially when it’s directed at her kids!

On Saturday, the 34-year-old singer took to Instagram to share a snapshot of her and her husband Eric Decker’s 8-year-old daughter Vivianne, 7-year-old son Eric Jr., and 4-year-old son Forrest wearing swimsuits while they stood together on a beach in Mexico. She captioned the post:

“Vacation Decker style”

Shortly after posting the snapshots, her kids sadly began to receive criticism from some social media users in the comments section about their bodies, with some questioning whether or not Jessie used Photoshop to put abs on them. However, she was not going to stand for the remarks and did not hold back when clapping back at them in the comments! One person first commented on the picture, saying:

“That doesn’t look right … Sorry, not sorry.”

To which the country artist replied:

“It’s a sad world we live in today when having healthy fit kids who are super active, play sports [and] build muscle naturally is ‘weird.’”

When someone commented, “surely this is an app but I don’t see anyone saying as much,” Jessie fired back:

“yeah I used an ‘ab’ app on my small children wtf.”

Another critic then slammed the three children for having abdominal muscles, calling them “strange”:

“My kids are super active and do not look ripped. This takes a special kind of diet and exercise and it looks strange on a child hence all the comments.”

She responded alongside a heart emoji:

“From one mother to another. Please don’t call my children’s appearance strange just because they don’t look the way you think they should? It’s unkind.”

It’s terrible that so many people had negative things to say about her kids. Awful… Fortunately, not everyone in the comments section had critical comments. Selma Blair – who competed with Jessie on season 31 of Dancing With the Stars – pointed out how much “fun” Vivianne, Eric Jr., and Forrest seemed to be having:

“I love these smiles. The strength. So in their bodies. Fun goals.”

Her DWTS pro partner Alan Bersten then said:

“How do they all have better bodies than me?????”

Kelly Rowland also wrote:

“These abs on these babies, tho!!! I gotta step my game up! Lol.”

Glad Jessie called out all these haters! Reactions, Perezcious readers? Let us know in the comments below.

Kelly Rowland couldn’t care less what the internet thinks! She’s standing firm by Chris Brown’s side, despite the controversy.

As we reported, the Destiny’s Child singer ruffled a LOT of feathers on Sunday night at the American Music Awards when she accepted the Favorite Male R&B Artist award for the Kiss Kiss vocalist, who was not in attendance after his wildly inappropriate Michael Jackson tribute was axed.

Despite his win, the audience was clearly not a fan and actually booed when it was announced he’d taken home the award. Well, Miz Rowland wasn’t going to stand by and let this happen so she shut down the negativity and made a scene of supporting Chris. And, yeah, social media had a field day with the viral moment!

After this kind of fallout, it would have been fairly normal for Kelly to start walking back on her strong stance to avoid taking any more heat, but instead, she doubled down! On Monday, TMZ caught the 41-year-old out and about in West Hollywood and asked to get her take on the drama. While getting into her car, a paparazzo approached Kelly and asked if she finds it “sad” to see people “bullying” Chris for his past behavior. She quickly replied:

“I believe that grace is very real, and we all need a dose of it. Before we point fingers at anybody, we should realize how grateful we are for every moment that we get. Even our own things that we have, I just think it’s important to remember to be human. We are humans!”

Yes, we should all be grateful, but… “pointing fingers”? It’s not like people are making up things about Chris! He pleaded guilty to abusing Rihanna in 2009 and served five years of probation for the assault. He is literally a convicted domestic abuser!

Also, let’s not forget that he has continuously been accused of abuse, as recently as in 2020 and 2021, too. So, it’s not just his past coming back to haunt him but his alleged recent actions, as well. Just saying.

Related: JoJo Siwa Has No Interest In Speaking To Candace Cameron Bure EVER Again!

All that said, the photographer then asked if the Think Like A Man star feels like the crooner needs to be “forgiven” by the public, to which she dished:

“We all need to be forgiven for anything that we could be doing. Anything that we’re thinking. We all come up short in some sort of way, and grace is real. And we are humans and everybody deserves grace. Period.”

Huh…

Is she really shaming people for not being able to forgive and forget the actions of an abuser?? It’s one thing for her — and even Rihanna, who publicly forgave her ex during a 2020 interview on Oprah Winfrey‘s SuperSoul Conversations podcast — to not hold a grudge for what the 33-year-old did, but it’s not really anyone’s right to tell someone else how to feel. Especially when they haven’t proven they have truly changed.

Check out Kelly’s full reaction to the backlash (below).

Thoughts? Do you think Chris deserves a second chance? Sound OFF (below)!

Chris Brown was the center of more than just one instance of drama at the AMAs!

By now, you’ve probably seen the viral finger-wagging clip of Kelly Rowland silencing boos from the audience at Sunday night’s American Music Awards after she announced the musician won the award for Favorite Male R&B Artist. He, of course, wasn’t in attendance so she accepted the honor on his behalf while standing up for him against the hate.

But if only he had Kelly in his corner earlier in the week!

Related: Did Normani Just TANK Her Career By Collaborating With Chris??

As it turns out, Chris was supposed to be at the glitzy music event over the weekend — and not just in the audience. He was scheduled to take the stage during a TV event for the first time since the #MeToo movement hit Hollywood. It would’ve been his first televised performance since the 2017 BET Awards. A pretty big deal, especially since he (a convicted domestic abuser) was going to be honoring Michael Jackson… who has faced disturbing child molestation accusations. Oof. What a problematic pairing…

Ahead of the performance, journalist Matthew Belloni for Puck News reached out to Disney and ABC to get the 411 on the controversial tribute — only to learn the higher-ups (somehow) had no clue this was happening, inciting major drama behind the scenes of the live show. Yeesh!

According to multiple sources on both sides of the issue who spoke to the outlet on Sunday, Jesse Collins and Stephen Hill, who executive produced the show for Dick Clark Productions, were working with CB and his team on a medley of MJ hits with Ciara and other artists to honor the 40th anniversary of Thriller.

But also on the setlist? Beat It. Which, you know, is a bold AF choice considering Brown plead guilty to physically assaulting his then-girlfriend Rihanna in 2009. He’s also been accused of several other instances of abuse (including allegedly hitting another woman as recently as last year). Seeing him perform a song with that title would have been wildly insensitive and ripe for controversy!

But, apparently, the EPs (especially Hill ,who had a good relationship with the songwriter after being a former programming chief at BET) were excited to give the singer a chance to return to TV, especially after hearing him complain in August about being shadow-banned from the industry for his past behavior. But was this really the best decision on Disney’s part??

Well, Matthew wanted to know just that and decided to call for a comment last weekend, but instead of getting answers, he ended up opening a can of worms. Apparently, Disney/ABC execs had no clue about these performance plans. ABC Entertainment president Craig Erwich was then alerted and Rob Mills, the network’s head of alternative and specials, went back to the producers to nix the plan. Per Puck’s sources, Collins and Hill were furious. In a call with Mills, they explained the backlash they assumed they’d get from Chris and his massive following if they axed the tribute. This led to a major debate between Erwich, Mills, the Disney/ABC PR team, and Felicia Joseph, head of ABC talent. Even Disney TV chief Dana Walden was briefed on the drama. Damn!

Related: Julia Fox Responds Backlash For Dating Antisemitic Rapper Kanye West!

Interestingly, despite the many allegations against the 33-year-old crooner, Disney wasn’t against him taking the stage, they just didn’t like the preplanned tribute since the content was likely going to create a massive scandal. Instead, they suggested the producers find a way to include a performance from Chris more thoughtfully — but the artist, who had already been rehearsing, had no interest in changing things up, which the EPs assumed would be the case.

After the tribute was canned, the singer went on to slam the AMAs on social media. While sharing rehearsal footage on Instagram, he wrote on Friday:

“WOULDVE been the ama performance but they cancelled me for reasons unknown.”

Ciara did the same thing — check it out:

Well, the reasons weren’t unknown at all!

And if Chris really wanted to perform, he likely could have since a non-Jackson workaround was on the table if he was game. But, alas, he wasn’t. Meanwhile, Ciara did switch things up and instead presented an award at the show. According to the outlet, D.C.P. president Adam Stotsky apologized to the House of Mouse for any miscommunication, while a rep told Puck:

“Live shows change all the time, it’s the nature of this business. Unfortunately, this element of the AMAs didn’t come together as we couldn’t align on the performance, to no fault of Chris Brown.”

Hmm. Kinda seems like it IS his fault though! We mean, his history of abuse was part of the problem! ABC has yet to comment on the scandal. It’s hard to imagine anyone would’ve thought this tribute — and especially the inclusion of the song Beat It — would have been an appropriate way for Chris to return to TV! Thoughts, Perezcious readers? Which side of the debate are YOU on? Let us know (below)!

Kelly Rowland does not want to hear ANY Chris Brown criticism.

The Destiny’s Child alum took to the stage on Sunday night at the American Music Awards to present the Favorite Male R&B Artist category. After reading the nominees, she opened the enveloped and crowned the Under The Influence singer as the winner. But fans on social media were focused on what went down immediately after that!!

Related: Did Normani Just TANK Her Career By Collaborating With Abuser Chris Brown??

The 33-year-old recording artist was not at the show to accept his AMA win. So, Kelly told the crowd she’d accept the honor on his behalf. However, some audience members could be heard booing over Brown’s selection as the show’s favorite male R&B crooner. And they jeered through Kelly’s revelation!

Not content to let fans yell while she was on stage, the 41-year-old star told audience members to “chill out” while she was delivering a message to Chris. At first, Kelly started to show gratitude to the singer before cutting off fans in the audience and wagging her finger at the crowd over their negative reactions:

“Now Chris Brown is not here tonight, so I am accepting this award on his behalf. Excuse me! Chill out.”

Oof!

Then, she gushed over Brown’s music. Telling the singer “I love you,” she added:

“But I want to tell Chris, thank you so much for making great R&B music, and I want to tell him thank you for being an incredible performer. I’ll take this award [and] bring it to you. I love you. Congratulations, and congratulations to all the nominees in this category.”

Wow…

Quite a favorable attitude towards a man who has repeatedly been accused of violence against women! (And plenty of other s**t, too.) And Kelly’s finger-wagging shutdown of fans who voiced their displeasure was a memorable moment on its own. You can see the viral clip go down (below):

Yikes!!

Not a great look to see a woman defending a man convicted of domestic abuse! Over on Twitter, viewers reacted to Rowland’s jaw-dropping defense of Brown, where many were up in arms over the unfortunate situation, as you can see (below):

“Why was Kelly Rowland going so hard for Chris brown on that stage?”

“Shame on Kelly Rowland for supporting an abuser”

“doing all that for chris brown in 2022 is… whatever”

“The worlds most famous domestic abuser”

“I don’t think I have actually heard a crowd do that at an award show like that before”

“This why Kelly gets so much shade from everybody. Like Chris hates women like Kelly.”

“What the f**k is Chris brown doing still winning awards and why is Kelly Rowland up there thanking his ass wtf truly.”

Of course, Brown has found himself under fire multiple times during his career. Back in 2009, he chose to plea guilty to a felony following a domestic violence incident with Rihanna. He was placed on probation for several years and was ordered to complete community service as part of the plea.

Another ex-girlfriend, Karrueche Tran, accused Brown in 2017 of allegedly punching her in the stomach and pushing her down a flight of stairs while they dated in the early 2010s. Brown denied those accusations at the time. Still, Tran was granted a five-year restraining order against the Call Me Every Day singer over the alleged incident.

Brown was also sued for allegedly drugging and raping a woman in 2020, and accused of allegedly hitting another woman in 2021. An investigation into that latter allegation was later dropped due to insufficient evidence.

Per Page Six and others, Brown had apparently been scheduled to perform at the AMAs before his slot on the show was apparently nixed. Earlier in the weekend, he took to Instagram to reveal video from what appeared to be a rehearsal for the show. “U SERIOUS?” he wrote in the caption of the clip (HERE), with followers lamenting in the comments how his performance was scrapped.

It is unclear what led to that. Though, of course, Brown ended up not being in the building at all for the award show on Sunday night. What do y’all make of Kelly Rowland coming to his defense, Perezcious readers? Share your thoughts in the comments (below)…

Celebrity reactions to Takeoff’s untimely passing have begun circulating on social media, and they show just how loved he was.

As we reported early Tuesday morning, the Migos rapper was reportedly fatally shot early Tuesday morning in Houston, Texas. Apparently, the 28-year-old, whose real name is Kirshnik Khari Ball, as well as his uncle and fellow Migos rapper, Quavo, were playing a game of dice at 810 Billiards & Bowling when an altercation occurred inside the building, which led to a shooting. The late rapper had unfortunately already passed by the time law enforcement arrived.
