Kiera Nicole might be familiar to some by way of a series of hilarious skits that almost always point out that she’s one of the curviest women on the scene these days. Beyond her voluptuous figure, Kiera Nicole is positioning herself to be one of the go-to personalities in the still-growing content creation space and she’s our latest Baes & Baddies feature.
We don’t know a whole lot about Kiera Nicole except that she’s originally from Los Angeles, Calif., and currently resides in Houston, Texas, and you know what they say about the Lone Star State. We’ll let you figure that one out for yourselves.
We’ve checked out several reels and TikTok clips of Kiera over the past few months and she collaborates often with others in the space. Just recently, Kiera Nicole shot some content with a recent Baes & Baddies entrant, Myah Jane, and the bountifully blessed pair who know how to play up their charms and personalities for the camera.
Check out the gallery of images from Kiera Nicole alone. Some images are a bit racy so if you check out her other pages, do so with all respect to your viewing neighbors if you catch our drift.

Mea Culpa, the latest film from Tyler Perry, was released to Netflix over the weekend starring Kelly Rowland in the lead role alongside co-star Trevante Rhodes. While the film catapulted to the top of the streamer’s Top 10 listings for movies, fans on X are handing in mixed reactions.
Mea Culpa follows the tale of Mea Harper (Rowland), a criminal defense attorney who begins representing artist Zyair Malloy (Rhodes) who is accused of killing his girlfriend. Without delving too much into the plot, Mea and her husband Kal Hawthorne (Sean Sagar) are going through some relationship issues involving another woman.
Amid her troubles at home, Mea takes on Zyair as a client, who is being prosecuted by her brother-in-law, District Attorney Raw Hawthorne, the brother of her husband. Zyair, using his charm, begins to seduce Mea and all hell breaks loose from there according to what we see in the trailer for the film.
Tyler Perry joined forces with Netflix as a content partner back in October of last year and the multiyear deal will see not only movies from the celebrated director and screenwriter but also several series as well.
The issue that some online have with Mea Culpa is some of the plot twists within the film, and others have been critical of Rowland’s acting skills. Others are also saying that it’s time that Perry allows someone else to handle his scripts, a common refrain from detractors of his work.
Check out the reactions from X, formerly Twitter, below.

Cam Newton might not be slinging footballs on the gridiron these days but that doesn’t mean the 2015 NFL MVP hasn’t kept himself in good shape. A video surfaced of the free-agent quarterback getting into a bit of a brawl but what was most impressive is that his hat never left his head nor did he seem that bothered.
Cam Newtown, 34, was in Atlanta for a 7-on-7 football event over the weekend as reported by Deadline with the former Carolina Panthers and New England Patriots star in town with his C1N 7v7 squad. According to reports and accounts online, a group of individuals appear to shove the still-physically imposing Newton around. It hasn’t been confirmed but it appears the potential assailants were from Top Shelf Performance, a group that had teams playing in the inaugural We Ball Sports 7v7 tournament.
The video shows Newton, decked out in an elaborate hat, standing tall above the group as the fight moved from inside a pop-up tent to another area. Newtown and his hat held their own against the group before a security guard and other individuals came through and pushed the throng back as tempers settled.
Details are scant and Newton nor anyone from the We Ball Sports side has offered a public statement regarding the incident.
On X, formerly Twitter, the video of the incident has gone viral with many remarking on the sheer size of Cam Newton and noting with good humor that his hat was just as unbothered as he was. We’ve got the best of the reactions from X below.

Benzino found himself back in the conversation on the heels of the still-brewing feud he’s been engaged in for years with Eminem and he elaborated on the beef in a recent stop on the set of Drink Champs. During the chat, Benzino appears to have an emotional breakdown behind his ongoing battle with Eminem, causing some to believe he was intoxicated during the moment.
Benzino, reportedly 58, and Eminem, 51, have been throwing verbal jabs at one another over the years with Slim Shady starting this year’s salvo on “Doomsday Pt. 2” from Lyrical Lemonade’s All Is Yellow compilation album. On that track, Em took shots at the Boston music executive and his daughter, rapper Coi Leray.
Shortly after, Benzino returned fire with “Rap Elvis” and has been goading Em to verbally retaliate but nothing has occurred thus far. However, during his Drink Champs chat with N.O.R.E. and DJ EFN, ‘Zino comes clean and says that he doesn’t really have a true issue with Eminem and would even welcome a chat, something he’s expressed before.
“I don’t have nothing against Eminem. He can rap but I care about us more. I don’t want to talk about it no more,” He said. “My daughter came to industry figuring ‘I gotta be cool with Eminem because everybody is against my dad.’”
For those who witnessed the moment in question, some have voiced concern for Benzino while others are hoping the two will finally move on beyond their issues and have that long-awaited face-to-face conversation.

Nicole Fegan, a defense attorney whose client was connected to the Young Stoner Life list of codefendants, was arrested on unrelated gang charges on Friday (Feb. 16) in Georgia. Fegan, who has several videos online of her discussing her career and connection to clients, is facing multiple gang-related charges that is not connected to the YSL matter despite the chatter online.
The arrest of Nicole Fegan is a fast-developing story so we’ll try to pack in as much as we know currently. Fegan was charged back in February of last year after making contact with the suspect of a Sept. 27, 2022 shooting case that left one man dead.
As local outlet WSB-TV reports, Fegan was arrested for contacting the male suspect in the aforementioned shooting, which contained two victims, in Northwest Atlanta. Fegan was arrested in Gwinnett County and will be transported to Fulton County based on warrants that highlighted she was facing charges of participating in criminal street gang activity and criminal solicitation to commit the offense of tampering with evidence.
Police told WSB-TV that Fegan contacted the suspect by phone but was not part of their legal team thus sparking the warrants for arrest. Fegan alerted the man that there were warrants out for his arrest and that she found out about the warrants during a hearing while instructing the suspect to rid himself of his phone so he couldn’t be tracked digitally.
Fegan did not represent Young Thug in the YSL RICO case. Her client, Tenquarius Mender, had his case split from the wider YSL trial. That said, the arrest of Fegan has caused a stir online with some believing it will have some impact on the YSL RICO trial.
On X, formerly Twitter, the reactions have been pouring in. We’ve got them listed below.

The Kid Mero, one-half of the former comedy and talk show duo Desus & Mero, has broken the silence around the pair’s split on his new podcast program. However, Desus is pushing back on Mero’s version of the split, calling cap on the whole breakdown.
Today, Mero is a co-host of 7PM in Brooklyn with Carmelo Anthony & The Kid Mero, with the pair taking on conversations in the pop culture space. Joe Budden, who knows a thing or two about professional public breakups, was a recent guest on the podcast and the topic of the Desus & Mero split came up.
“It’s the business, there’s no friends in the business, you know what I’m saying? We was in a situation where I got four kids, two mortgages. The taxes are crazy. I got real life situations going on,” Mero said, gesturing to Budden, and mentioning that he now lives in New Jersey.
He added, “So I’m like, ‘Yo, if we get an offer from DraftKings for 1.5, before they got logos on the NBA court, and you’re like, ‘Nah, bro this ain’t it.’ And I’m like, ‘Nah fam, I’m gambling illegally right now. This sh*t is legal in Jersey, I just moved here. This is going places, bro. We need to do this.’ And they’re like, ‘Nah?’ I’m like, ‘F*ck outta here!’ To me that’s like, the beginning of like, ‘Alright, this sh*t is corroding.’”

Desus, catching wind of the recaps made by various outlets, in this case, Complex, retweeted the article with a gif of the “cap” meme in response although he has elected so far to not say more beyond that.

At their height, Desus & Mero were an unstoppable force that crossed over into the hearts of America by way of their high-profile cable television program and appeared by all measures to become the next big thing in media and beyond.

Jordan The Stallion captured the hearts of millions via his popular TikTok channel where he pokes fun at his mature look despite being in his 20s. In a new clip featuring his signature deadpan humor, Jordan The Stallion was able to obtain an appearance from the legendary Method Man, which got a big reaction on social media.
What we’ve learned about Jordan The Stallion is that his birth name is Jordan Hewlett, and he hails from Riverside, Calif. A former baseball player, Jordan’s rags-to-riches story is one that he’s told in media appearances, and he’s currently sitting at just over 12 million followers on TikTok.
The new clip features Jordan holding his smartphone to film himself speaking in a mirror, a style he’s perfected since starting his page in 2020. After hilariously explaining that outlets have been writing about him, with one calling him the older brother of Method Man, Jordan then brings the Wu-Tang Clan swordsman into the frame, and the pair continue their banter.
What makes this completely hilarious is that Method Man, who turns 53 this year, might have children around the same age as Jordan The Stallion. What should be noted is that M-E-T-H-O-D Man has kept himself in fantastic shape over the years and it looks like Jordan’s been hitting the weights hard as well. And yes, in this particular video, that we’ll share below, we can kind of see the similarities.

President Joe Biden has battled questions about his age and mental fitness as he prepares himself for another presidential campaign run.  The president held a press conference and railed against Special Counsel Robert Hur’s report that suggested President Biden mishandled classified documents while taking shots at his ability to remember details.
As reported by the Associated Press, President Joe Biden held a press event at the White House Thursday (Feb. 7) evening aimed at addressing Hur’s report which said evidence was found that Biden held on to classified information when he was a private citizen and shared these details with a ghostwriter. However, while Hur said his findings would not bring charges against the president, there were several mentions made of the president’s ability to remember events.

Biden addressed those claims and denied that he shared classified information but he also was rendered emotional after discussing his memory of his son, Beau Biden, who died from cancer in 2015. Hur concluded that Biden’s memory was “significantly limited” and raises new questions as November looms in the distance.
Another point of contention is that former president Donald Trump has been accused of retaining highly classified documents but unlike President Biden, Trump was charged by Special Counsel Jack Smith and is demanding that the Justice Department drop those charges citing Hur’s findings.

Jada Kingdom continues to try and mind her business as she leans further into her relationship with Pardison Fontaine. However, given Pardi’s famous ex-girlfriend, Megan Thee Stallion, fans are pulling out all the stops to compare the two women and are currently debating their twerking skills.
All of this is very strange behavior but walk with us slowly so that we can catch the readers up. A video from the top of the year featuring Pardison Fontaine with Jada Kingdom dancing has been clipped up next to a video of Megan Thee Stallion dancing.
A clip of the two artists was posted by @YSLONIKA on X, formerly Twitter, and has since gone viral with over 2 million views. Writing “Jada ate her up and she’s fuIIy dressed too,” the post suggests that Kingdom has the superior cheek situation to Hot Girl Meg although both women are beautiful in their own right.

This swiftly turned into the Jada Kingdom vs. Megan Thee Stallion twerking dance battle with some fans on X simply wondering why such a corny debate is kicking off and that we should just be enjoying the sights among other replies.
Kingdom was already in the crosshairs of Meg’s fanbase, The Hotties, after some connected bars from the “COBRA” single to her Jamaican counterpart while making her the target of infidelity rumors in connection to Pardi. Kingdom has since said she was not the woman Megan allegedly walked in on with Pardi and has not addressed the issue since.
On X, we’re watching the very odd debate play out. We’ve got the best reactions we could muster below.
