Remember when we reported Keyshia Cole’s arrest for assaulting Cash Money employee Sabrina Mercadel after she found her lounging at Birdman’s penthouse during a party? Sabrina remembers it quite vividly and has filed a restraining order against Keyshia for her protection. According to TMZ, Sabrina filed court documents that accuse the “Point of No Return” singer of punching her in the face, throwing objects at her and even slashing her with her nails.

The fight allegedly started when Keyshia went to rumored boo Birdman’s L.A. home at around 5 a.m. as a surprise and found Sabrina there already. Witnesses say Keyshia attacked her, leaving scratches on her face. She was arrested and sent to jail that night for battery and her reckless driving warrant. But, she was released on a $46,000 bail shortly after.

Sabrina also says in her documents that, although the Cash Money CEO and her work together, she was just “visiting a friend.” Sources have said that Sabrina and Birdman have been friends since they were young and has worked in the Cash Money camp for a decade.

But, Sabrina’s restraining order isn’t the only thing that may concern Keyshia. The singer, who has been more than open in her music about her heartbreak, expressed sympathy for Daniel Gibson after the two called it quits. Keyshia’s ex-hubby said to Necole Bitchie that he’s depressed after losing his wife and son. “As far as his depression is concerned, I think as a friend, he has to understand, as well, that things that bring you to that point of being depressed or losing something that matters to you more than anything,” she said on 106 & Park, “you can’t repeat the same thing that got you there in the first place.”

Phaedra Parks Confirms Divorce Rumors On ‘Ellen’

It looks like our favorite “Real Housewives of ATL” southern belle is ready to talk about her marriage. Phaedra Parks appeared on ‘Ellen’ to open up about her relationship with estranged husband Apollo Nida. Apollo, who pled guilt in May to fraud and was sentenced to 8 years in prison, has spoken about his case and his marriage, but Phaedra has remained relatively quiet..until now.

After confirming that she will file for divorce, Phaedra said she was clueless about Apollo’s illegal activities during their union. “I mean, I work. I just got my fifth college degree,” Phaedra said to Ellen. “And so I’m pretty much an overachiever. I have two very small children. I just stopped breast-feeding three months ago. So, I didn’t have any idea this was going on until he called me and he said, ‘Hey, I’ve been arrested and I’m having this problem, but it’s not true.’ So I went out of my way to get him the best attorneys, the best investigators, and to do anything I could, because I’m an attorney myself and so I wanted him to have the best. So we could fight this together, but obviously it did not turn out like that.”

Apollo has also been more than honest about his marital woes, even claiming in a radio interview that he wasn’t sure if he could depend on Phaedra anymore. But, Phaedra seemed to understand. “I think sometimes when people are hurting they do things to hurt other people,” she said. “There’s been a lot of lashing out from Apollo because I think he’s in a place, a very angry place, and I think you hurt the people closest to you sometimes. It’s unfortunate.”

Snoop Dogg Blasts Iggy Azalea, Nick Young Calls Out Snoop

The beef between Snoop Dogg and Iggy Azalea is getting out of hand. Snoop, who we know to be usually calm, lashed out at Iggy in a new video, calling her a “c**t” and saying that if her “n***a” — presumably her boyfriend NBA Laker Nick Young — doesn’t shut her up, he will. The response seems to stem from the recent string of events between he and Iggy on social media. It all started when Snoop posted a meme, seemingly making fun of a recent photo of her without makeup. The “Fancy” rapper was upset, obviously, and took to Twitter to confront Snoop and ask why he was being an “a** for no reason.” These tweets were soon deleted.

TMZ then reported that Iggy was “fuming mad” about Snoop’s joke, but she took to Twitter to deny that claim.

Even though Iggy seems to have pushed the “beef” aside, Snoop continued joking about Iggy on his Instagram and Twitter. He captioned a recent picture of his alter ego Todd: “So says Todd cool out lil sis he was only jokin Sike. Ub***hu !!” He even added Iggy’s frenemy Nicki Minaj to the mix. He shouted out the “Pink Print” rapper in a meme with the caption: “Where is Iggy ? Nowhere insight. @realnickiminaj_ F*** the fake n non writers yeah that means u again b***h !! Go nikki go Hoe Iggy hoe !! Sweet dreams c**t” He even posted a video of her giving a blow job (we’re not going to include that one). At this point, Iggy has still remained quiet, but she finally addressed the drama on Twitter.

Nick Young has also gotten in on the beef, coming after Snoop. And, for the most part, Twitter isn’t here for it, even if he is defending Iggy.

We’re not sure how to feel about this situation. While it’s normal for beef to happen in hip hop, Snoop coming after her like this is alarming. Only time will tell how this unfolds.

Pharrell landed the November cover of Ebony Magazine‘s “Men’s Issue” looking younger than ever. And, in his cover story, “The Voice” judge talked about how Mike Brown’s case affected him personally. “I don’t talk about race since it takes a very open mind to hear my view, because my view is the sky view. But I’m very troubled by what happened in Ferguson, Mo,” he said. “When things like that happen, we need to be a united cell. We need connective tissue to be linked by spirit and spirituality.” Skateboard P also slammed rumors stemming from his controversial GIRL album cover that said he’s bias against Black women.

“I love Black women,” he said. “If you don’t think I love Black women, then you don’t understand me. I have obsessed over Black women since the days of Jayne Kennedy, Beverly Peele and Roshumba Williams. Those are the women I daydreamed about growing up.”
