Kidnapping Victim Amanda Berry Makes First Public Appearance With Rapper Nelly

Kidnapping victim Amanda Berry made her first public appearance since being freed from a Cleveland home, where she was held captive for ten years. Berry popped up on the stage at The Roverfest in Cleveland on Saturday (July 27) to a cheering crowd. After rapper Nelly performed, he called Berry, 27, back to the stage, who received another round of applause. “I wanna make sure we get a chance to thank you cause I know it’s a long time,” Nelly told Amanda Berry. “I can’t even imagine the type of courage and strength it took to keep it going so, I commend you and thank you.” Just a day earlier, Amanda Berry’s kidnapper Ariel Castro pleaded guilty to 937 criminal charges, for his role in holding Berry, Gina DeJesus and Michelle Knight captive for a decade. During their captivity, Ariel Castro fathered a 6-year-old with Amanda Berry as well. Ariel Castro pleaded guilty to the charges and will be sentenced to life in prison plus 1,000 years. Check out Amanda Berry on stage with Nelly as he performs.

Juvenile Talks Signing Back With Cash Money, Shares Thoughts On Lil Wayne Vs Label

[ALSO READ: Juvenile Announces He Has Re-Signed With Cash Money (VIDEO)] “We worked it out. They cut the check,” stated Juvenile. “It’s a matter of lawyers sitting at the table.

GloRilla "GLORIOUS" Album Review

GloRilla GLORIOUS New Album Review Hip Hop News2024 CMG/Interscope Records Glo's still got some rough edges to smooth out, but her studio debut both deepens her artistry and emphasizes its strengths. With a breakout hit as massive as "F.N.F.," it would've been easy for GloRilla to just stick to that sound and appeal to get her bag as hip-hop's most beloved new femcee of that year. To be fair, that's kind of what she did in the following months, giving us single after single of some dirty Memphis bangers that she earned her fair share of hate for, along with every other woman rapper being just as hedonistic as the guys without that patriarchal benefit of the doubt. However, the Tennessee native clearly didn't want to rush her studio debut, and now that GLORIOUS is here, we can easily see why. On this new album, GloRilla amps up the regionality of her artistry with no need for excessive bells and whistles, makes the most out of her various flows and ...

Young Money Sued Because Lil Wayne's a Bad Sport!!!

Lil Wayne had a front row seat watching Floyd Mayweather beat Manny Pacquiao. He also watched the Ravens beat the 49ers in the 2013 Super Bowl. He even watched the finals of the NCAA Women's Tourney. And he stiffed the ticket brokers ... allegedly. Tickets of America and White Glove International claim Wayne got $119,400 worth of tickets and never paid a cent. According to the lawsuit, Wayne got tickets for the following events: -- Mayweather vs. Pacquiao $67,500 -- Super Bowl XLVII $14,000 -- MTV Video Music Awards $4,000 -- Heat vs. Hawks $11,000 -- Lakers vs. Rockets $11,100 -- Clippers vs. Rockets $11,300 And this is sad ...

The suit names Young Money and Wayne's manager, Cortez Bryant, but not the rapper himself. We reached out to Wayne. So far no word back.
