Mary J. Blige Ordered to Pay $30,000 in Temporary Spousal Support

Published
6 years agoon
I know Mary is somewhere playing “No More Drama” right now.
This is already starting to get ugly. In court documents obtained by E! News, a judge ruled that Mary will have to pay ex Kendu Isaacs $30,000 in temporary spousal support until a permanent settlement can be reached. The judge also ruled that the payments be backdated to September. She will also have to pay his mounting legal fees, currently at $235,000.
While this may sound like a lot, it’s actually a discount. Kendu initially requested $129, 319 per month! Mary requested that the prenuptial agreement be enforced and spousal support be waived. Apparently, the judge disagreed.
Also in the court documents were Mary’s claims of an estate essentially under water. She stated that Kendu has mismanaged her funds over the past two years. She was unaware of these expenses, including $420,000 for travel expenses unrelated to her or her business. She claims that it was Kendu’s idea to live lavishly and now she is in debt to the tune of millions of dollars. This includes taxes and advances from her record label.
This is such a sad situation. I remember her interview on The Breakfast Club and how she admitted to giving Kendu complete control of her life. The result, unfortunately, has been catastrophic. Not only has she been betrayed and discarded for someone that she once deemed a friend. She has been left holding the bag, a now empty bag. It’s horrible to imagine that after over 20 years in the industry, she may be left with nothing. All in the name of love. I know everyone better start watching their “friends” a little more closely. Wasn’t Tiny just talking about how T.I cheated on her with the assistant?
Love is beautiful when it works. But you should never lose yourself in another person. The cost is far too great. And no, I’m not talking about money. I’m talking about self-esteem, respect, dignity, independence. She thought that it would all be worth it, and it clearly wasn’t. I’m not afraid of being alone. I’m afraid of someone walking off with the best parts of me.
Let this be a cautionary tale to everyone. Oh, and when is everyone going to start calling Kendu a gold digger? People love to drag women when they try to take half in a divorce. Well, this is the same exact thing, if not worse!
What do you think about Mary’s divorce drama? Is Kendu a gold digger?

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.

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.
