Big Brother 20



Queen Bay did her best in the Big Brother house to fight her way to the end but putting her trust in Rachel made her an easy target!

On Big Brother 20 episode 20, Angela convinced the alliance and the rest of the house that Bayleigh was the hacker. Hayleigh felt bad that the 25-year-old flight attendant was put up on the block so she told Bay the truth. She then told the rest of the BB house that she was the hacker. In return Bayleigh flipped out on Tyler which put even more of a target on her back. Although Hayleigh felt she did the right thing trying to save a member of her alliance, it just wasn't good enough!

During the live eviction every houseguest except Sam voted for Queen Bay to depart from the BB throne!

Big Brother 20


On every Big Brother season there is always that one houseguest calling the shots behind the scenes. This season it would be Tyler! Tyler has been pulling strings that most of the players are unaware of. He doesn't really have to do anything because he has them wrapped around his coils. Hayleigh made a big move when she put Tyler up on the block. He was also chosen not to vote during the eviction ceremony. Still and all, Tyler is still around. 

Who is it going to be next to try to get Tyler out? Will they be successful?

Ray J Tricks Safaree Into Telling The Truth On 'Love And Hip Hip Hollywood'

Photo by Google Images


There is only one highlighted moment that everyone is talking about from Monday night's episode of 'Love and Hip Hop Hollywood'!

On this season's premiere of 'Love and Hip Hop Hollywood' Kimberly formerly known as K. Michelle was the first to put Lyrica on blast about jumping in the bed with Safaree. A1 didn't believe the rumor to be true. That is until he heard it from others like Marcus who heard it from Brooke. Although Lyrica denied crossing that line with the Jamaican born producer, Safaree already admitted to the truth when he was being interrogated by Ray J. So what is Lyrica going to do now? Will she and A1 stay together? Should they stay together?



In the video above you see Ray J meet up with Safaree to discuss the picture of his anaconda floating around on social media. He then inquired about the rumor about him and Lyrica getting in between the sheets. Safaree denied taking things to a sexual level with A1's wife, but the look on his face read nothing but guilt! That's when Ray J tricked Safaree into telling the truth.

Safaree may have been able to escape from a ass whooping from the man with gold dreads, black nail polish and glittery shoes. He might not be so lucky next time! Then he gone wish he had security!

Looks like A1 had every right to come after Safaree but he didn't have to take it out on his mother. Following Lyrica's mother getting escorted out A1 aka Floyd put his mother out as well. To make matters worse he got into an altercation with his brother Lloyd who also felt like he had changed since he went Hollywood!

POWER S5, Ep. 4 Recap: "Will Tony Confession To His Wife Cost Him His LIfe?"

Now that Tony Teresi is out of jail Connie, Ghost, Tommy as well as some of Tony's associates were suspicious of his sudden release. On the episode "Second Chances" Tony came clean to Connie revealing that he is an informant. He claims the only reason he did it was to be with his wife before she could possible die from cancer.

It's a shame that even with Connie's illness Tony is still being dishonest with his wife. He told her he wasn't after Tommy but he really is after his son he barely knows. While Tony was in the middle of talking to Connie, Tommy showed up to tell his father about the hit on him and the family. Tony pretends to be concerned only to get information to reveal to the FBI, specifically John Mak.

So the question is will Tony's confession to his wife put a target on his back? Tony felt safe telling Connie about his plans. Connie warned him that if the family found out he would be in big trouble. Tony assured her that they won't find out. Tony seems to be confident that his secret is safe but there is no such thing as safe once you are open to revelations. Last season Tommy showed up at Connie's house unannounced. Could she be the one who reveals Tony's truth to Tommy and the family? What would you do if you were in Connie's shoes?

James aka Ghost and Angela Valdez of POWER


After ignoring Ghost's calls and messages Angela Valdez finally decides to meet up with her former lover. This sudden meet up came after Tasha got fed up with Ghost not grieving the way she felt he should have over their daughter Raina which caused her to pack her bags and leave. Angela who thought she had something going with whom she thought was in public relations, until she found out he jus used her to stop her from her big break. Valdez then became vulnerable and answered to Jamie's demands. When the two met up face to face, the conversation between the two was bland. They didn't seem to know what to say to each other after not seeing each other for so long. James asked Angela what took her so long? Angela responded by saying "I'm here now".

James then asked Angela was she ok and she shook her head no. Angela asked James was he ok and he shook his head no. And that was that!

Joe Proctor of POWER


Meanwhile John Mak is not letting go of Joe Proctor. He had his crib searched for evidence in a crime while his daughter was there. Although they didn't find anything Mak isn't going away until he brings him down. Proctor met up with Ghost to inform him about Teresi. He advised nothing about their business be discussed in front of the informant. Ghost and Kanan don't trust Teresi but Tommy is too naïve to see that his newly found father is up to no good.

Dre the amateur is making big moves in the business world but he's also headed for destruction on the other side. Dre and James met face to face when Tate introduced him as an additional face to the board. Ghost who was shocked by the news shook hands with his enemy.

Dre has a lot to learn in this game! But for right now he is sitting on top and with Tate by his side he feels he can't be stopped. Only time will tell when "Dre Day" comes, and when they come, they all coming!

'POWER' Season 6 Episode 2 Recap: "Damage Control"

Photo by Google Images


There couldn't be no better title for this episode of 'Power' other than "Damage Control" because there were lots of it. One of Dre's crew members made a bad move that could put another hit out on Dre. Tommy made two foolish mistakes that could jeopardize his father Tony Teresi. While Tasha was looking for a comfortable place to grieve over the loss of their daughter Raina Ghost was reaching out to his ex aka mistress Angela Valdez. 

Still Breathing!

So Tariq who knows Dre and Kanan are partially responsible for his sister's death still has yet to learn his lesson. On the premiere of 'Power' he gave Dre heads up about the hit on him. Dre managed to escape the hit putting Tommy and Ghost in a bad situation with the Italians. On top of that after one of his crew members went reckless killing a prominent associate Dre finds himself in for more than he could handle. 



Undercover Boss!

In other news Angela believes someone knows Tariq is involved in Ray Ray's murder so she tries to tie up lose ends with an unlikely ally, Tasha St. Patrick. The problem is Valdez only joined forces to protect herself from being exposed. She knows Mak is own her like krazy glue so she's making sure she covers all her tracks. Sounds familiar! 

On the flip side the only thing she is doing right is not being around Jamie aka Ghost. For the moment she's ignoring him but how long will that last? 

Catch Him If You Can!

Joe Proctor may not have his job but he is going to fight tooth and nail to get it back. Mak wants Joe gone just as bad as he wants Angela's spot.  He tried to bribe Joe by telling him he would withdraw the complaint if he would give him info on a client. Joe refused which led Mak to go after Terry, St. Patrick's former lawyer with a subpoena.. Terry who never really liked Ghost in the first place did a good job at making Joe look bad calling his decisions unethical.

Ghost Revenge!

While Tasha was trying to find a place of solace to help her grieve Ghost (Omari Hardwick) was too busy trying to get in touch with Angela. After she didn't answer the first time he tried again. When she didn't respond he resulting to murder.

Ghost actions was clearly about revenge when he stabbed an innocent man to death. Would he have killed him if had spoken to Angela? Why was it so hard for Ghost to share grievance with his wife, Tasha?

Stay tuned for more 'Power' Sundays on Starz!

''Black Ink Crew Chicago' S4 Recap: "Danielle Breaks Off Engagement And The Old 9Mag Crew Confrtonts Ryan"


Photo by Google Images



That was real smooth the way Danielle was acting like everything was all good when Terrance came home. He had no clue what was about to go down because he thought he was off the hook. After Danielle revealed that she had proof  about he and velvet via text messages Terrance had no choice but to come clean. Was Velvet being messy? Of course, she was being messy but it was better that she knew then rather than after she said "I Do"!

Terrance had already lied to Danielle saying nothing happened between he and the stripper, but when she mentioned the messages he had no choice but to man up. However, for Terrance it might be too late for the "I'm sorries" and the "I f****d ups". It was pretty clear that the engagement is off when Danielle took off that ring showing him jus how he has her f****d up!

Ryan Henry Black Ink Crew Chicago


Despite the drama between Ryan and his so-called family he left behind Lily came up with a good idea to make money by going to the Chicago tattoo convention. They came up with a name called Loyal Mag but had no clue Ryan was going to be at the event. On top of that Charmaine was shocked when she saw Ryan who opened a new 9Mag, at the convention with a new crew. With Phor and Don gone that left Lily and Van left to do tattoos. Van was in a good mood until Charmaine broke the news about Ryan with a new crew. 

Ultimately, Ryan was forced to face the old 9Mag crew and his girl Rachel had his back all the way. She made it very clear that if they not messing with Ryan she ain't messing with them. She was riding for her man! You go Rachel!

Lily tried to talk to Ryan first about how he left her behind without saying a word. She wanted answers and she got what she wanted. Did she like the response? You can tell by the look on her face that she wasn't happy at all. Van and Charmaine was trying to get answers as well but Ryan blew them off like they were nothing to him. Van walked away even thought he wanted to punch Ryan in the face. Had they not have been in a public place he probably would have!

Sadly, Ashley took her youngest son with her to Texas leaving DJ behind. She wanted to get away from Don after all that has happened. Can you blame her?

On next week's episode of 'Black Ink Crew Chicago' Lily tries to smash Danielle's face in. Lily feels Danielle shouldn't have a say so about what happens going forward with the shop. Danielle and Charmaine feels she has as much to do with the shop as Lily. 

Also Ryan invites Junior to the new 9Mag offering him the manager position. Junior wants to be a tattoo artist. He is on his hustle and making moves. Lily said she needed to work. Maybe she should have did what Junior did and still helped with Loyal Ink.

Will Junior accept Ryan's proposal?

Stay tuned for more 'Black Ink Crew Chicago' Wednesday's on Vh1!

'Love And Hip Hop Atlanta' Recap: "Tommie Gets Fired Following Altercation With Security"

Photo by Google Images
Cast of Love and Hip Hop Atl


This week on 'Love and HIp Hop Atlanta' things got really bad for Tommie Lee. Unfortunately, the cast will no longer be able to film with their feisty co-star following an altercation with security.

Rasheeda invited the ladies out to invite them to her grand opening for Pressed in Houston. Everything was going fine until Tommie showed up intoxicated. While they were sipping on wine, Tommie added Hennessey to her wine before she proceeded to go after Spice. Spice had some concerns about Tommie's actions but Tommie was in another space. She immediately started being verbally abusive toward security which ultimately led to her being physical. As a result of Tommie's drunken behavior she was booted from the show. When the production crew brought it to the cast attention they too became even more concerned.

Tommie Lee


Before Tommie attacked security she said that things were deeper with her and Spice. Whatever she is going through is causing her to over consume alcohol. We have watch Tommie struggle with issues with her mother, sister, Scrapp, Karen King and co-cast members. She has even been in altercations with others outside of filming

Tiarra of Love and Hip Hop Atl

Although Tiarra may mean well, she is barking up the wrong tree. She already knows how Rasheeda feels about Jasmine in her space and yet she continues to spark the fire. Jasmine clearly doesn't understand her place. She feels because she has a child with Kirk that she can just pop up. Tiarra may be at fault for bringing her to Houston against Just Brittany wishes but Jasmine is a grown woman. She should know better!

Tokyo of Love and Hip Hop Atl

In the mist of all the hoopla going on, Tokyo was feeling some type of way about messy Karlie. She feels that she ambushed Sierra when she brought BK's side pieces to meet her. Then she felt like Karlie ambushed her when she told her that Tobias has moved on with Spice. Karlie was on a mission to make amends but Tokyo wasn't giving in. Karlie may have been trying to do a good thing by telling Sierra about her new boo but she lost her boo because of it!

Also on 'Love and Hip Hop Atlanta' it was revealed that Jessica and her boo will be having a baby girl!

'Basketball Wives' S7, Ep3 Recap: "For All Is Done Will Not Be Forgiven"

Basketball Wives Cast


Things are getting heated on 'Basketball Wives' but the pot isn't boiling just yet!

What turned out to be a joke about ended up causing more chaos than to be expected. Evelyn and Jen may have thought they didn't do anything wrong but had the shoe been on the other foot, neither one of them would have been laughing. To make matter worse they tried to put it off on Kristen just to save face. Jennifer stirred the pot when she offered Kristen vodka thinking that she would be truthful. This is what you call pointing the finger but Kristen stood her ground. Cece was right! Jen and Evelyn were definitely trying to cause a rift between the two.

Kristen Scott

Kristen was not at all afraid of Jen. In fact, while she was giving out vodka calling it truth serum, looks she's the one who was offering the truth and didn't even know it. Jen definitely has some explaining to do. In the middle of her and Kristen argument she said she was going to court because of someone making false accusations about her, but on the first episode she claim she was going to court to get restraining order against her ex because he was stalking her. Now which one is it?

Jennifer Williams and Shaunie O'Neal


This season of 'Basketball Wives' Jennifer has been really stirring the pot. After being invited to a bbq by OG she tried to get Evelyn and Tami to squash their beef. Unfortunately, that didn't go so well. Tami asked Evelyn about her impersonating her and Evelyn didn't hold her tongue. Ev and Jackie then went at it over something of the past. 

Ev made it clear that she will never forgive Jackie for what she said about her daughter. It's also clear that Ev and Tami will never be friends!

These ladies are a bit too old to be arguing over something so petty. However, it seems like they are just looking for a reason to be mad at one another. Evelyn is no different than Jackie. She and Jen made a joke that could have tampered with that woman's career. It's no different than Jackie calling Ev's daughter a build-a-w***e! IJS!


Stay tuned for more of this season of 'Basketball Wives' Monday on Vh1!
