New Details Emerge In ‘Love & Hip Hop Hollywood’ Abuse Incident
News details have emerged in the shocking domestic violence incident involving Yung Berg and his girlfriend Masika Tucker that erupted after the “Love & Hip Hop Hollywood” reunion earlier this week. According to the criminal complaint, obtained by TMZ, Masika claimed Berg, “hit me and dragged me by my hair. He pinned me to the wall and grabbed me by my throat.” The violent encounter, that apparently started over Berg’s credit card being declined, caused Masika, “obstruction of breathing.”
Masika suffered: a laceration to her right forearm, a laceration above her left eyebrow, bruising to the left side of her neck, and a laceration to her chest, TMZ reports. Berg is facing four criminal charges (three for assault and one for harassment).
The couple have been mum about the altercation. However, their costars haven’t been so quiet. In an exclusive interview, Yesi Ortiz said Berg’s behavior was “out of character.” The super producer’s ex Hazel E, tweeted, “Karma is a b*tch. Damn. God protects his angels.” Masika’s other enemy, Nikki, tweeted “Lol.
It’s a sad day when any woman, despite their disdain for someone, laughs at a victim of domestic violence.

Nicki Minaj Says She Has Sex In Her Downtime
Nicki Minaj better werk! Just yesterday she laced the cover of V Magazine’s Winter issue and today she’s on the cover of Billboard in a shiny leotard that has us seeing gold.
Nicki, who typically plays coy about her personal life opened up to Billboard about it…well kinda. Nicki revealed how she manages to keep her private life under wraps and it’s pretty simple. “Just by not talking about it,” she said. “It’s that simple. I mean, people know how to be private but they don’t want to be private.” Despite being so hush, hush on the topic, she did briefly open up about her vacation with rumored ex-boyfriend Safaree. “It was beautiful, I loved it.”
When asked what she enjoys doing in her spare time, she responded, “have sex.” Sounds about right.
Nicki also commented on the controversy surrounding her “Anaconda” video. “Everything we see that’s labeled as beautiful is very skinny,” she said. “In the song I kind of say, ‘F— them skinny girls.’ But it’s all love. I consider myself a skinny girl.” She added, “I went overboard with the video to show that I’m not going to hide. And those big-booty dancers I have, they’re not going to hide. Black girls should feel sexy, powerful and important too.”
