B2K, Pretty Ricky, and more have gathered for a reunion tour and the internet is here for it! Nearly 15 years after the fourth installment of the Scream Tour, The Millennium Tour seeks to reignite the careers our teen faves.
Ready to Bump, Bump, Bump
This announcement has us digging out our favorite jersey dresses and dusting off our Baby Phat jackets! Set to begin in March, tickets for The Millennium Tour are nearly available for purchase. Pre-sale tickets are available on January 4th, leaving many wondering just how quickly they will sell. If the hype and demand are as high as the Scream Tour of the early 00’s, tickets will sell out.

Right now, the lineup for the 2019 tour features most of our R&B faves but the gang is not all there. Once the announcement for The Millennium Tour was made, many wondered where the stars who got it crunk were. The Scream Tour that made lots of these artists popular originally featured Chris Brown, Trey Songz, T.I., and Ciara. Special guests like Nelly, Kanye West, and Jay–Z made surprise appearances along different stops. This is the tour that took a lot of R&B faves from obscurity to superstardom!
Trouble Already
All the buzz surrounding the tour has at least one person acting up before the ink on the check has even dried. Pleasure P is currently facing a DUI charge in Miami Beach. The self-proclaimed “Bad Boy of R&B” reportedly “reeked of alcohol” and refused field sobriety tests. Marcus Cooper, aka Pleasure P, told officers he was celebrating his birthday and then asked for his attorney, Flo Rida, and Shaq. Clocked at 100mph in a 45mph zone, we’re not sure what he’s expecting a rapper and retired NBA baller to do in his defense. As of now, the singer is facing four charges:
- Resisting an officer without violence
- Driving under the influence
- Driving with a suspended license
- Reckless driving.
Let’s hope the singer-turned-Love and Hip Hop: Miami star can turn it around before the tour kicks off. With 21 announced dates, we’d hate for legal woes to stop his bag.

Social media star Rolling Ray underwent surgery Tuesday morning to treat serious burns on his body after his terrible wig accident last week.
In a series of IG stories, he let his audience follow along as he prepped for surgery.
Last week Rolling Ray announced he was hospitalized after his wig caught on fire! During a January 13 Instagram Live session hosted straight from his hospital bedside, he showed his severely burnt and damaged face telling viewers his “whole skin, legs, arms, feet, and everything” were burned.
Prayers for Rolling Ray 🙏🏿 pic.twitter.com/d6PwlLbrlI

In a more recent Live, Ray explained the incident that led to his whole wig catching on fire: an unfortunate smoking accident. “It just, like, lit on fire when I tried to light the cigarette,” he recounted. “So I get to trying to snatch the wig off. B***h, the fire goes to my f*****g shirt, to my feet, to my legs, to my back. It’s a fire everywhere, it’s a fire in the whole room.”

Of course the internet trolled him in a disgusting display of ableism and heartlessness. Comments like “Rolling Ray should have stopped, dropped, and rolled” and “karma’s a b***h” had social media conflicted in its feelings about his accident. His sensation comes from his harsh and, often, below-the-belt reads (just last month he told Yung Miami to “dig (sic) up” her dead baby father. However, the criticism didn’t stop him from responding on Twitter.
I miss y’all 🥺! See y’all soon, if this what Karma feels like she should’ve came harder because I’m alive while others still dead. God loves me 😍! Imma bounce back

Rolling Ray might be problematic as all get-out, but we do not tolerate ableism here. We wish him well as he heals.

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West Are Getting Divorced, Report Says
Published

January 6, 2021
In a story published Tuesday evening, Page Six is reporting that Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are getting divorced, with the two already in settlement talks. The news comes after the couple spent the holiday season separately – Kanye at his ranch outside Cody, Wyoming, Kim and the kids with her famous family in southern California.
A source close to Kardashian was quoted saying, “Kim got Kanye to go up there so they could live separate lives and quietly get things sorted out to separate and divorce. She’s done.” Kardashian, 40, and West, 43, are said to be splitting because of marital problems directly related to Kanye’s very public mental health struggles.

For several years the rapper’s various antics have caused fans to worry. After coming out as a Trump supporter, West then announced his own 2020 presidential bid under a new political party: the Birthday Party. At a campaign rally in South Carolina, he was seen rambling, debating individual audience members, and at times, crying. In various interviews, he has rambled on almost incoherently, and his tweetstorms are now infamous.
For her part, Kim has always supported her husband and has openly discussed the difficulties of their marriage. Back in June, she shared on social media, “Anyone who has [bipolar disorder] or has a loved one in their life who does, knows how incredibly complicated and painful it is to understand… People who are unaware or far removed from this experience can be judgmental and not understand that the individual (has) to engage in the process of getting help no matter how hard family and friends try.”

It appears she has finally reached her limit in the union with the unnamed source saying, “She is serious about taking the bar exam and becoming a lawyer, she is serious about her prison reform campaign. Meanwhile Kanye is talking about running for president and saying other crazy s**t, and she’s just had enough of it.”
Separately, a source close to Kanye alleges the rapper is sick of his wife and her family, which might have some truth to it since he has tweeted some pretty nasty things about them in the past. “I been trying to get divorced since Kim met with Meek at the Warldolf [sic] for ‘prison reform,’” he said in a now-deleted July tweet. Recently, he hasn’t been featured on his wife’s Instagram and has largely remained out of the public eye.

With the news yet to be confirmed, the “divorce is imminent” reports are just rumors for now. We’ll be following the news as more information comes out.
