Megan Thee Stallion may have just sparked a new wave of relationship rumors with a single Instagram post—and it has nothing to do with what she was wearing. The rapper recently shared a series of photos showing off her Hot Girl Summer swimwear collection, but it was a mystery man lounging in the background that had fans zooming in and asking questions. Social media users were quick to speculate that the unidentified figure bore a strong resemblance to NBA player Klay Thompson, who now plays for the Dallas Mavericks. While Megan didn’t tag or mention anyone in her post, that didn’t stop curious followers from dissecting the image. One person commented, “MEGAN IS DATING KLAY THOMPSON???!” while others cracked jokes about the guy’s physique, debating whether it could actually be the NBA star. “That’s not Klay, that’s his skinny stunt double,” one user joked. Another chimed in, “That’s the eBay version of Klay.” This isn’t the first time Megan’s name has been linked to a professional athlete. She was previously connected to Chicago Bulls forward Torrey Craig, with the two going public via TikTok in 2024. However, fans noticed that the two haven’t been spotted together since the spring. As for Klay, he’s had his share of attention over the years, with past relationships including actress Laura Harrier and singer Coco Jones. Neither he nor Megan has addressed the latest rumors, and there’s been no official confirmation of any romantic connection. Still, the internet is convinced there’s more to the story—and the timing, location, and casual nature of the alleged sighting has only fueled speculation. Whether it’s a soft-launch or just a coincidence, fans are already keeping tabs on the next post.
Lil Uzi Vert Sued Again Over Alleged 2023 Assault
Lil Uzi Vert is once again being sued over an alleged assault in New York City, this time through a fresh lawsuit filed in Pennsylvania. Abdullah Ali, the man behind the claims, is taking another shot at holding the rapper accountable after a previous case filed in New York was dismissed earlier this year. The alleged altercation dates back to 2023, when Ali says he came across a Rolls-Royce in a trailer marked with Floyd Mayweather’s Money Team branding. According to the new lawsuit, Ali began taking photos of the vehicle, which allegedly led to a confrontation with several individuals he claims are connected to Uzi. Things reportedly escalated quickly, with Ali stating he was physically attacked—punched, kicked, and left with injuries that included a damaged shoulder and missing teeth. Although Lil Uzi Vert was previously named in the original New York suit, he was later dismissed from the case. At the time, his team firmly denied he had any role in the incident. Now, with the case being refiled in Philadelphia, Uzi is once again being dragged into the legal battle. In a statement to Complex, Uzi’s attorney Joanna Menillo stood by her client’s innocence. “This case has been frivolous from the outset with absolutely no evidence of any involvement by Uzi or Uzivert [Uzi’s company] in this alleged assault,” she said. “The Court in New York rightly dismissed this case and we expect the Court in Pennsylvania will do the same.” Floyd Mayweather, who was also named in the original complaint, has not issued a public response to the updated filing. As of now, the rapper’s team appears confident that the Pennsylvania court will throw out the case just as New York did.
Karrine Steffans Can’t Remember If She Ever Had Sex With Diddy
Karrine Steffans can not recall if she ever had sex with Diddy. During an appearance on “Piers Morgan Uncensored,” after Diddy was found not guilty of sex trafficking and racketeering, she spoke about her interactions with the disgraced mogul. Steffans denied having a sexual relationship with the Bad Boy mogul, but then she admitted she couldn’t recall what really happened. “Well, not to my knowledge. Honestly, I’m questioning a lot of things right now,” Steffans said. When Morgan asked her if Diddy used drugs or alcohol to take advantage of her, she alleged: “I don’t know. Given what we know now, I can’t be sure.” View this post on Instagram A post shared by The Neighborhood Talk (@theneighborhoodtalk) During an interview with the Daily Beast back in September 26, Steffans claimed she was introduced to the mogul as a ‘gift’ by an unnamed executive in 2001 “In retrospect, I realized that I was given to him as a gift by another executive,” Steffans recalled. “Diddy’s car pulled up… He asked who I was, and the men spoke for me,” she added. She also said that Diddy’s is not just a problem in hip-hop but throughout culture. “It’s not just Diddy, and it’s not just music or hip-hop,” she said. “Men who hate women, men who hate who they are, who can’t admit to their sexuality… They beat us early and often.” Steffans is best known for her New York Times Best-Selling book series on hip-hop’s misogyny, titled Confessions of a Video Vixen (2005), The Vixen Diaries (2007), and The Vixen Manual: How to Find, Seduce & Keep the Man You Want (2009). If you or someone you know has been sexually assaulted, contact the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 1-800-656-HOPE (4673).

Ice Cube is not only one of the greatest rappers and a legendary filmmaker, but Selena Gomez used to love him as a child. Appearing on 3’s and Ones podcast, Cube said that he was already aware of Gomez’s childhood crush on him. “A lot of ‘em like me, homie,” Cube said.“What? What’s up? I heard this years ago. Look, I had my crushes too growing up.” Cube went on to reveal that Vanity whose real name was Denise Matthews from Prince’s Vanity 6 group was one of his favorites. “Look, I had my crushes growing up, too. Vanity, bring her in here and see what happens,” he said. “I had about four [childhood crushes].” “One of mine was Eminem only because I grew up listening to him,” she said. “My dad was a DJ, so he would remix all kinds of songs, and every time it was an Eminem song, I would just get so excited.” “Can I tell you my first one that I had a crush on, Ice Cube?” continued Gomez. “I had the biggest crush on him when I was, like, 5.” When he’s not being crushed on, Cube is celebrating the eight season of the BIG3, the hugely-popular 3-on-3 pro basketball league that he founded. We’ve got Hall of Fame coaches,” Cube said in an interview with Back In The Day Hoops On SI. “We definitely don’t want to tempt Rick Barry, Ice Man [George Gervin] to suit up. We’ll let the OGs coach the league and let the players play.” “That’s the beautiful thing about the league,” Ice Cube said. “You get to see people like Dr. J, Nancy Lieberaman back in the heat of battle, back wanting to win a game,” Cube continued. “They can’t play but they can coach their teams. They can show their passion. They can definitely scream at the refs.”

Appearing on the latest Complex’s GOAT Talk, Ashanti pulled a green card that asked who Nelly’s “GOAT hall pass” would be.

There’s no way, I’m 50,” he added as Ashanti clapped in approval. “I could never fall for that trap. Who the hell answered that with their wife sitting across from them?” Nelly continued. “Gotta be an idiot. nah Nelly is a menace for “Tip Drill” being his GOAT breakup song Shop the Nelly & Ashanti GOAT Talk collection on @complex_shop: https://t.co/8Ax5OWTMSA pic.twitter.com/5EIu3joO3i — Complex Music (@ComplexMusic) July 9, 2025 Approving all the way, Ashanti gave Nelly a high-five.

When asked about the “GOAT thing about being back together now versus then,” Ashanti said, “Having a child and, like, having a real family unit.” “For me, it’s the thighs, baby,” Nelly joked, as Ashanti laughed. “Like, you always had ‘em. But them thangs now? Them thangs thangin’.” During a red carpet appearance in March, Ashanti shared her eagerness to welcome more children into their lives, enthusiastically declaring, “Let’s go!” when asked about expanding their family.

The pair attended the 1,500th performance of Cabaret at the Playhouse Theatre on July 7, appearing close and coordinated in their stylish attire.

Janet Jackson and Maxwell >>>> pic.twitter.com/p3hS4BQyXw — RNB RADAR (@RNB_RADAR) July 8, 2025 According to Page Six, the appearance was “PDA-packed” and significant given Jackson’s historically private approach to her personal life. She has remained largely out of the dating spotlight since her divorce from businessman Wissam Al Mana in 2017. Maxwell, known for R&B hits such as “Ascension” and “Fortunate,” has also kept his romantic life low-key, with past relationships rarely confirmed publicly. As of now, representatives for Jackson and Maxwell have not commented on the rumors.
Adin Ross Offers Nicki Minaj Equity In Kick
Nicki Minaj set social media ablaze Tuesday after airing grievances against Jay-Z, and Megan Thee Stallion. Her posts drew immediate attention, with the rapper accusing Jay-Z of owing her $200 million while also criticizing Megan’s legal issues and suggesting Roc Nation CEO Desiree Perez was part of a larger industry problem. In a pointed reference to Cardi B’s underwhelming single “Outside,” Minaj’s commentary seemed both strategic and personal, fueling a new wave of speculation across fan circles. Amid the digital uproar, Minaj turned to X (formerly Twitter) to ask her fans where she should take her livestream content next: Twitch or Kick? That question quickly reached Adin Ross, a leading creator on Kick, who jumped into the conversation with a direct—and business-minded—offer. He warned that Twitch’s strict guidelines might limit Minaj’s ability to speak freely, especially on hot-button topics involving Jay-Z or Megan. Kick, on the other hand, would welcome her voice without restrictions. Minaj’s next move could shake up streaming To make the proposition even more enticing, Ross offered Minaj equity in the platform—signaling just how serious he is about bringing her into the fold. Known for his ties to Drake and Stake, Ross has carved out a space in the streaming world that aligns closely with unfiltered entertainment and hip-hop culture. With Minaj already finding success on StationHead through raw, unscripted audio sessions, the move to a visual platform like Kick feels like a natural next step. Whether Minaj accepts the offer remains to be seen. But her decision could carry major implications for the future of creator-led streaming. If she opts for Kick, it could challenge Twitch’s dominance and reshape how artists connect with fans in real time.
Kehlani Opens Up About Cutting Ties With Chrisean Rock
Kehlani and Chrisean Rock’s brief connection seems to have fizzled out just as quickly as it began, following a wave of controversy, a viral incident, and unexpected accusations. The speculation started when fans noticed Kehlani had quietly unfollowed Chrisean on Instagram, triggering rumors that something had gone wrong between the two. The timing raised eyebrows, as it came shortly after a viral video showed Chrisean and her entourage getting into a tense encounter with a man outside a hotel. Someone in the group was heard threatening to call immigration authorities on him, which immediately drew criticism online. Given Kehlani’s long-standing advocacy for marginalized communities, many assumed the incident may have influenced her decision to walk away. Kehlani responds to Chrisean Rock’s claims that Blueface cracked her. pic.twitter.com/0PhFz8Y8rL — FAVULATE (@favulate) July 8, 2025 Kehlani eventually addressed the situation online, clarifying that their gym meetup happened after Chrisean invited her at church. She explained it was simply an act of kindness, but the next day, she made a personal decision to step back. Without offering specifics, she made it clear that the choice came from a place of self-protection. Chrisean then entered the chat with a surprising claim. In a video captured by Hollywood Unlocked, she alleged Kehlani had once been involved with Blueface, the father of her son. The comment took things in a new direction entirely. Kehlani wasted no time shutting it down. “Ew [laughing emojis] what the hell,” she posted to Instagram. “WE’RE ADULTS! WE ARE MOTHERS OMG pls I make musicccc… this is not my ballllll [laughing emojis] i am literally on settttt.” She followed up with more pointed words, stating she had no interest in participating in “nasty mess.” Kehlani ended her remarks by saying she made the decision to step away as “a mother and protector of my peace and safety,” making it clear she’s done with the drama.
Nelly Buys Horse Racing Team
Nelly is bringing a National Thoroughbred League team to his hometown. Nelly has announced the purchase of the Seattle team and will relocate it to St. Louis, and the team will be called the Nellies. Following the announcement of the purchase, Nelly shared his excitement about his team being in St.Louis. “I’m excited to be part of bringing a new professional sports team to the city that means so much to me…” Nelly said in a statement to FOX Business. “I can’t wait to hit the track and celebrate with our incredible St. Louis fans.” View this post on Instagram A post shared by The National Thoroughbred League (@ntlracing) “I thought it was a brilliant idea to take one of the oldest sports and give it a new spin, refreshing it for a new age,” added A Tribe Called Quest’s Jarobi White, another investor, “Horse racing is called the sport of kings. What NTL is doing is making the sport more accessible, so everyone from kings to commoners can enjoy.” The horses will run at Fairmount Park in nearby Collinsville, Illinois, which has undergone a $100 million renovation Randall Lane, CEO of the National Thoroughbred League, is looking forward to the league expanding to St. Louis. “You look at the Cardinals, St. Louis supports its teams and falls in love with its teams. We’ve talked to the mayor’s office about this and coordinated there. It’s a city that loves sports, that wants to support its teams, and Fairmount Park is 100 years old. It’s really historical, old track that they’re putting $100 million into,” Lane said in a recent interview with FOX Business. “We like going where there’s investment. We like going where there’s a century-old tradition of horse racing. But we wouldn’t have done this without Nelly spearheading it, because having local ownership, having somebody that’s so synonymous with the city to the point of even the name is so fun. I mean, the St. Louis Nellies. Almost all of our teams have horse-related names, but it’s both smart and speaks to the fact that we’re trying to create a team that speaks to St. Louis itself.” To celebrate the new team, Nelly will host the NTL’s Nelly Cup at the track on July 19. The day will also include music by White himself and a Nelly-inspired fashion show.

As far as you know, being on the album,” No Malice said. “But I’ll see Chad in the airport, in the street, at Buffalo Wild Wings, you know, in VA. Whatever they got going on, just hope for the best for that […] Whenever we see each other, it’s always still love. Always.” “For me, no, you know, no. Everybody knows my favorite album is Hell Hath No Fury Pharrell did that alone. That’s it […] Chad’s my guy. I love Chad. Pharrell’s my guy, love Chad, too. We’re brothers, we came up together,” Pusha explained. “But, you know, when you say missing in the music, there is no missing in the music when it comes to the Clipse. And if it’s just P, it don’t matter—we find what we find.” In April 2024, Williams and Hugo were involved in a legal dispute over the group’s name, which HO797 previously reported.
