Whoopi Goldberg Tells Disney To Ditch "Frozen" Attractions & Honor Chadwick Boseman With Wakanda

The devastating news of Chadwick Boseman's death is still reverberating globally as the actor reached a worldwide audience. His most celebrated role as Black Panther's T'Challa touched the hearts of millions as the film became a record-breaking, award-winning, box office blockbuster. Unbeknownst to his fans, friends, and many co-stars, Boseman privately battled stage IV colon cancer, yet he still tackled challenging roles for four years until his passing just days ago. There have been many calls to commemorate the beloved actor including erecting statues and changing the names of buildings, but Whoopi Goldberg has something else in mind.

The legendary actress took to Twitter to directly send a message to Disney's movers and shakers. "Dear People in charge of building NEW experiences Disney Land and World we don’t really need another Frozen land BUT what we could use is Wakonda, please Disneyworld Disneyland PLEASE build in Chadwick Boseman’s name WAKONDA," Whoopi Goldberg tweeted.

At Disney World in Orlando, Florida, there are many Frozen-themed attractions and it seems that Whoopi is calling for at least one of them to be changed. Over at Disney's California Adventure theme park directly opposite Disneyland in Anaheim, California, there are plans for a Marvel expansion, so it will be interesting to see how Black Panther is included in the new attraction. Check out Whoopi Goldberg's tweet below and let us know if you agree with her.

Young Thug Is "The Best, Quietest Neighbor," Atlanta City Councilman Says

The pilot of the short-lived Meth & Red Show essentially summarizes the stereotype every rapper is hit with when they buy a house in upscale neighborhoods.  A family of four ready to purchase a home when loud bass rumbles through the streets and a fleet of Cadillac Escalades filled with women and friends follow before the camera pans to a shot of Method Man and Redman turning up at their shared mansion. That family is turned off by the notion that rappers live in the area and decline the offer to purchase the house. That portrayal of how rappers live isn't accurate, though, especially in the case of Young Thug.

Atlanta City Councilman Howard Shook is on his way to filing legislation banning short-term rentals in single-family homes after a mansion in the neighborhood received 34 noise complaints and 55 police calls between Jan. 1st and Aug. 21st. The parties were apparently so lit, that their event that was dubbed "the biggest topless pool party ever" made its way onto TMZ. Shook explained that the property has been used as an Airbnb over the past two years since their last neighbor moved out, Young Thug, who he described as essentially a perfect neighbor.

“Ironically, the best, quietest neighbor we had was a rapper. That was Young Thug,” Shook told Reporter Newspaper “And God, if I had known he was gonna be the best owner we ever had, I’d have taken him a Bundt cake.”

Thug had the house in 2016, though legal disputes over the mortgage prompted him to vacate the premises, AJC reported.

Naya Rivera Fans Upset With Big Sean After Rapper Says "IDFWU" Wasn't A Diss

We're days away from receiving Big Sean's long-awaited Detroit 2, but a recent interview has rubbed Naya Rivera fans the wrong way. Years ago, the rapper and the late actress were engaged to be married. As many high-profile relationships go, they decided to split and go their separate ways. Later, Big Sean's fan-favorite hit song "IDFWU" was released, and many people attributed the track to Sean's breakup with Naya Rivera. In a recent interview with Vulture, Sean claims that the track wasn't a diss to his ex and that Naya knew about, and liked, the song.

"She’s made such an impact on people, and she’s done so many great things in her life and her career that it was hurtful to even have that [song] be associated with her," he said. "It wasn’t a diss to her. I truly made the song and played it for her. She knew about it, and she liked it." The rapper added, "We had a breakup that was very public, and we were young and we forgave each other and moved on from that. If I would have known something this tragic would have happened, I would have never made the song."

After the interview made the rounds through social media, Naya's fans pulled up quotes from her 2016 book, Sorry Not Sorry: Dreams, Mistakes, and Growing Up. In it, Naya spoke of only seeing Big Sean once after he made a public statement that their engagement was over. According to the late singer, she and Sean sat in her car and talked things out. He played her the chorus of "IDFWU" and she begged him not to write any songs about her or to include anything about her in the track. She said he was surprised at the suggestion and promised her that he wouldn't.

Months later, the song dropped and Naya claimed she was shocked to hear the lyrics. "So, I was an adult who dated a child, and now, I have a rap song about me," Naya wrote. People have accused Sean of lying and even launched a "#BigSeanIsOver" hashtag, so check out a few responses from his detractors and supporters below.

Jeezy Blasts Trump For Comparing Police Shootings To Bad Golfers

We're about two months away from the 2020 elections and Trump doesn't even seem to be really trying to make himself look good, but rather, make Joe Biden look bad. Even still, Trump manages to make himself look bad in the process, even when he has in the media ring with right-wing pundits who often come to his defense whenever he flubs.

The recent interview he did with Laura Ingraham covered a lot of ground including the topic of police brutality in America. Ingraham, who would probably marry Trump if Melania weren't in the picture, asked Trump if he believed police were in more danger now than ever before which prompted his strange response. Trump addressed the Jacob Blake shooting, comparing the devastating incident to a golf putter who "choked" on the course.

"They can do 10,000 good acts, which they do, then one bad apple or a choker. They choke," Trump said. "Shooting the guy many times. I mean, couldn't ya have done something different. Couldn't you have wrestled him? You know, I mean, in the meantime, he might've been going for a weapon and, you know, it's a whole big thing there. But they choke. Just like a golf tournament they miss a three foot--."

Ingraham, of course, gave Trump a pass, telling him that he's "not comparing it to golf because that's what the media would say." Well, it's evidently not just the media but the Snowman himself. Sharing that very clip to his IG page, Jeezy unleashed a scathing response to Trump's "level of disrespect."

"Comparing lives lost to a golf game. The level of disrespect. Sometimes it better to say nothing at all. Either that or replace their guns with golf clubs. And their squad cars with golf carts. “Donnie still sleep y’all should buy his ass a Rooster” Haven’t heard him say one time how he plans to fix this problem," he captioned the post. Check out the post below.

Meek Mill Caught Looking For His Wife During Monica & Brandy Verzuz

Monica and Brandy broke the record on Instagram Live last night, matching up and attracting over 1.2 million sets of eyes for their battle on Verzuz. The two legendary ladies had the top viewership of any Verzuz battle to date and, according to Swizz Beatz, they even allegedly pulled in more fans than the MTV VMAs the night prior.

As fans celebrate the culture through the outstanding hits face-off between Brandy and Monica, Meek Mill admitted that he was checking out the event for a few reasons. Obviously, he loved hearing the nostalgic music played by both women, as well as the new heat that they presented, but he was quick to tell other viewers that he was also testing the field in other ways.

Hopping into the comments section, the Philadelphia rapper exposed himself, telling 1.2 million people that he was looking for the love of his life in the comments.

"I know my soul mate in here somewhere," wrote the 33-year-old. We're sure that, after he said this, his DMs were flooded with women trying to plead their case.

Meek Mill has historically had difficulty with love. He was famously romantically involved with Nicki Minaj and we all know how that ended. Most recently, he tried things with Milan Harris, a fashion designer, and things were going well for them as they welcomed a beautiful baby into the world. However, shortly after the birth of their son, the two broke up and called the end of their relationship.

Hopefully, this helped Meek find a new batch of women to head on dates with. He deserves to find the one.

Rick Ross Instigates Lloyd Banks Following Response

Rick Ross is stubborn. He is adamant that, by the end of the day, he will find out about Lloyd Banks' financial situation. 

Given Rozay's longstanding feud with 50 Cent, which recently took a turn in court, it makes sense that the Florida Boy would not be privy to sparking up a friendship with Lloyd Banks, a former member of the G-Unit collective. This weekend, things got ugly between the two classic rappers as Ross called out Lloyd Banks on his Instagram Stories, mocking him and asking him if he's still got any money.

"Banks is fresh out the gutter/Two scoops of butter," rapped Ross. "Banks, you still got some money? Show us what you livin' like. If you ain't got no money, I'll give you five grand for the Banks name. That might be one of my aliases -- Dank Sinatra."

Lloyd Banks indirectly snapped back at Ross with a quick go at things on Twitter, refusing to step further into the battlefield.

"I’ll NEVER join the circus," declared the hook king. "So don’t expect it from me..peace & love."

Catching wind of the comments, Rozay decided that he felt like stepping further on Banks' neck, demanding an answer to his original question. He commented on HNHH's Instagram, saying: "@lloydbanks question was are you broke brother?"

Do you think that Banks will reach Ross' level and get him the receipts he so desperately wants?

Aubrey O'Day Posts Bathing Suit Selfie To Refute Report About Weight Gain

A set of paparazzi photos has caused a firestorm for Aubrey O'Day. The former Danity Kane vocalist doesn't take too kindly to people making negative comments about her weight and that's exactly what she received after the Daily Mail posted an article with alleged recent pictures of the singer. On Monday (August 31), the outlet shared an article that claimed to feature images of Aubrey, pictures that showed a larger-sized woman, as she strolled around Palm Springs, California, yesterday. The pictures quickly went viral and soon, people took to the singer's social media pages to condemn her for pushing weight-loss products and photoshopped images.

However, Aubrey shared a picture of herself to her Instagram Story to show that the Daily Mail wasn't being truthful. "It's so f*cking sick what people will do to a woman's body for click bait!" Aubrey O'Day wrote over her image. "And that my lawyer needed this photo to defend me against it. When is this industry going to stop abusing women's bodies?!" She also held a sign with the date to prove that she wasn't using an old photo.

The singer didn't outright deny that she wasn't the person in the pictures, causing the social media discussion to continue. Meanwhile, Aubrey often causes a stir over her looks, but in recent years, she's been quite vocal about accepting her body after years of trying to fit industry norms. Check out the photos below.
