Before Nicki Minaj became the fierce rapping force she is today, she was a typical teenage theater girl who enjoyed acting in the school play. But if you’re a die-hard Barb, you already know Nicki studied the arts at LaGuardia High School before she locked sight on the rap game.
Fans were given a peek into the “Pinkprint” rapper’s high school years with a random throwback clip that began making its way around social media yesterday. A fresh-faced Nicki can be seen practicing her acting skills during an intense scene with a fellow student. At one point, her teacher steps in for safety.
Rihanna spent her Christmas holiday surrounded by family and friends as she handed out expensive and thoughtful presents. And when she wasn’t playing Santa Claus, she was sizzling in the sun wearing this sexy red bikini with her bestie Melissa. But now that the season is pretty much over, she’s back in the studio.
Ri Ri shared a pic from a possible #R8 session on Instagram with the caption, “brought work heauxm.”

This Christmas, if you weren’t laid out suffering from the “itis,” you may have been one of the people who found themselves doing the “Chicken Head” dance to Chingy’s throwback jam “Right Thurr.” Chris Brown must have been scrolling through his iPod on shuffle and came across the 2003 hit and decided, “Hey, I should make this the #ChristmasChallenge.” Whatever his inspiration, Breezy’s #ChristmasChallenge soon began flooding our timelines.
While we were thankful for the laughs (we even participated a little), no one was more thankful than Chingy. The southern rapper commented under an old photo on Breezy’s Instagram thanking him for reinvigorating “Right Thurr.” Oh, and asked Breezy to hit him up about some potential musical endeavors. Insert side eye emoji.
Would you be here for a Chris Brown, Chingy collaboration?

Wait. Let him explain…
Mathew Knowles has a really good explanation for hawking his daughter Beyonce’s stuff for cheap prices at a garage sale at his House Of Dereon Media Center in Texas. The former manager says he sold the items to make room for renovations and claims he isn’t strapped for cash despite recent rumors. Mathew said he has big plans for the property and intends on building a studio.
“Somehow that became we are going out of business, homeless and selling all of Beyonce’s stuff to stay alive, which as you can see it’s just the opposite,” he told local news station KPRC.
“If I needed money, I wouldn’t sell $5 T-shirts, I’d sell a Grammy or an MTV award,” he added.
Mathew is insulted by the rumors. Are you buying it?
