Kevin Gates is a very strange man. In one area the man is absolutely talented and brilliant. In another area the man is crazy.
Today we are going to discuss the brilliant half of the artist.
I was on Youtube and randomly came across this Complex interview of Kevin Gates saying that his wife Dreka manifests all of his ideas forward for him. I’ve seen parts of the interview before, (I be busy minding my business) today I glimpsed a new part.
This part is about the way Kevin feels about his wife. Not only did Kevin state that his wife didn’t just support him, but SHE BUILT HIM. But he credits her with getting him to where he is today.
He also said that Dreeka let him hit his head and run the streets freely but told him that he’s just killing himself, and one day he got exhausted and stopped.
They also discussed soul ties, energy in food preparation and the results of a man making his woman happy.
WATCH THE VIDEO BELOW:
What’s fascinating is that HE knows his woman’s power. Gucci Mane also appears to know. But most men are clueless as to a woman’s power. In fact they try to diminish it, instead of honoring it and allowing her power to propel him to the top… Then again, some men somewhat know and they meet unsuspecting women, drain them for all of their energy as the woman builds them up, then leaves for another woman.
Kevin on the other hand is still with Dreka… Obviously he feels like HE NEEDS HER.
What are your thoughts on this interview? (P.S. I am not into voodoo. Spirit simply lead me to post this video. There is a lesson to be learned about how Dreka has learn how to fit into Kevin’s life. She’s not only his woman, but she’s his life coach.)
Women these days are taking a lot of L’s. Either they are having to pay spousal support, not getting child support or getting their child support lowered.
The latest to take an L is actor Jessie Williams ex-wife Aryn Drake-Lee. Jessie left the hit television show Grey’s Anatomy and then asked the judge to reduce his monthly child support order because he makes considerably less money on his new job.
Jesse claimed that child support of $40K a month was blowing through all his savings. His ex-wife Aryn Drake-Lee said she needed the $40k to keep up her lifestyle.
It looks like Aryn may have to get a job, because the judge sided with Jesse.
Jesse Williams will be paying his ex-wife, Aryn Drake-Lee, a reduced amount for child support.
According to court documents filed on Thursday and obtained by PEOPLE, Williams’ monthly child support payments have been “temporarily modified” to $6,413.
Prior to the filing, the 40-year-old actor — who shares daughter Sadie, 8, and son Maceo, 6, with Drake-Lee — was paying his ex-wife $40,000 in child support each month.
The modification was made after Williams reported “a significant change of income” in documents filed on Dec. 20, 2021, just six months following his May 2021 departure from Grey’s Anatomy. Williams left the hit ABC medical drama after 12 seasons as Dr. Jackson Avery.
Currently, the actor is starring in the Broadway production of Take Me Out, which reportedly pays him $1,668 per week, according to TMZ.
By October 2020, Williams and Drake-Lee had finalized their divorce, with documents obtained by PEOPLE at the time showing that the exes would share joint legal and physical custody of their two children. Williams was also ordered to pay his ex-wife $40,000 in child support every month, as well as over $100,000 in two spousal support payments.
Then, in April 2021, the former couple was ordered by a judge to attend a “high conflict parents” program as they navigate their co-parenting relationship.
Williams has dated a few high-profile ladies since his divorce, but nothing has stuck, maybe because all his money was going to his ex-wife. His ex-wife was eating at Nubu, and Jesse was eating In-n-Out.
What’s interesting to me is how women are told to be feminine and depend on a man. If you fear doing so you are said to be broken… In my opinion, it’s silly to have a man paying you $40K a month in child support and you don’t have enough sense to invest that money or start a business stress free.
When a man falls out of love with a woman, he stops paying. While $6K a month may be a lot to some, for her that’s the equivalent of poverty…
Aryan also let herself go, knowing her high value, rich, celebrity man was constantly around young, hot thotties and women seeking their turn in the spotlight.
Now, here is what you may not know, as to why Aryn thought she was safe.
“Grey’s Anatomy” star Jesse Williams’ divorce from his wife Aryn Drake-Lee, who supported him for years when he was a struggling actor, is because he now “wants to be the hot single guy in Hollywood,” friends say.
Sources told Page Six Drake-Lee — who has worked in real estate and the art world — was his rock and the main breadwinner until Williams scored his big role on “Grey’s Anatomy” in 2009. They’ve been together for 13 years, married in 2012, and have two children.
Williams’ rise in Hollywood is to blame for the actor’s change of heart about his marriage, friends believe. “She poured money into this relationship and sacrificed her life for him, and now he wants to go out and be the hot single Hollywood guy. Jesse wants to . . . do whatever he thinks will make him a bigger star. He’s drinking his own Kool-Aid and it’s ‘the Jesse show.’ He’s dead f - - king wrong. He did not respect those vows. He wants to be single,” a source told Page 6.
I’ve been aware of these things happening to boss chicks, and I advise them to stop building men up. They tend to leave you for a younger, hotter, more feminine version of you. I even created a video about it.
So, let me repeat today’s lessons:
1. Start your own business – Never solely depend on a man. A provider man is a blessing. Bless yourself by INVESTING the money.
2. Keep yourself up.Your looks need to be competitive. Lebron James wife Savannah is an example of a woman who gets it. Sis comes out the house slaying. Men want to be proud of the woman on their arms. They are visual creatures. They really don’t love our beautiful souls, the way we would want them to.
I am sure there will be some ladies in the comments, screaming about how wrong I am for writing this truth. Don’t EVER listen to them. Always listen to people who tell you the truth. As this world isn’t always as pretty as you would like it to be. And men oftentimes don’t love and have the same kind of loyalty that women do. Men do what’s best for THEM.
When it comes to Hollywood you think you’ve heard it all. But this divorce between Megan Good and Devon Franklin is a new one, even for an amicable split.
Megan is walking away like Tina Turner and only requesting her last name. Except Megan doesn’t want to keep Devon’s last name. She wants her own name restored.
The couple’s journey of love is seemingly officially over after reports say the former couple has reached a divorce settlement by default.
According to legal documents obtained by Radar Online, Franklin is asking the judge presiding over the case to grant him a default decision, meaning their separation would be finalized without the “Harlem” star present since she has been absent from several court hearings.
The site reported that the preacher claimed the movie star agreed to give him sole control over the paperwork. In his filings, the 43-year-old stated that the two came to an understanding and have decided to split their property and assets. In addition, neither of the stars will request spousal support, and the “Think Like a Man, Act Like a Woman” star will restore her last name.
Records show after he filed his petition, Franklin immediately handed over his financial information to his ex. Meagan never bothered hiring a lawyer nor has she filed anything on her own.
It’s still unclear what led to the beautiful pair’s decision to end their union. However, Good has been very candid about her feelings in the aftermath, even once describing the split as “the most painful thing I’ve ever experienced” during a discussion on “Twitter Spaces” chat.
“Not everything makes sense to me right now, but I do trust God overall, and I’m excited to see what this next act of life is going to be and what God has in store, and that’s all I can really do,” she said. “But even in doing that, I do have gratitude and so much joy in my heart for these past 11 years that DeVon and I have been together. What he’s given into my life and what I was able to give to him, just everything.”
Devon Franklin, 43, has a networth of $12 Million. Megan Good, 40, has a net worth of $5 Million.
Not showing up to court says a lot. The one thing that I can discern from all of this is that Megan is going through a deep spiritual journey.
Prayers for her soul. Spiritual Transformation is not a journey for the weak.
Tyler Perry discussed the anxiety that comes from being with someone that you thought would never leave you. Check out the short video below. I promise you’ll be grateful.
Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez are ready to get married!
Most people believe that once you break up with an ex you should never go back. But in the age of conscious, and enlightenment many people are able to see how they may have caused problems in their past relationships. In addition to dating other people, one can begin to grow appreciation for divine connections and soulmates.
Jennier Lopez and Ben Affleck seem to be on that path.
The pair who rekindled their romance last year — is now engaged. Lopez shared the news in her On the JLo newsletter days after she was photographed wearing what appeared to be an engagement ring earlier this week.
She revealed the exciting update in a Friday evening email to her inner circle. The message to fans included a clip of Lopez admiring a huge, green diamond on her ring finger, an image of which was also shared by her sister on social media.
let's talk about a detail: i think he kept this ring for YEARS cuz apparently it's the same as bennifer 1.0, except for the stone. it means love is still the same, but the change of stone means a new time for them. what meant to be yours will always find a way back to you 🥺💚 pic.twitter.com/PKr2Ro9jKR
Lopez teased the “major announcement” with a video on Twitter that same night. “So I have a really exciting and special story to share…” Lopez told her followers. She also added a diamond ring emoji to her Twitter handle.
Lopez recently told PEOPLE what makes their connection different now compared to 18 years ago, saying, “We’re older now, we’re smarter, we have more experience, we’re at different places in our lives, we have kids now, and we have to be very conscious of those things.”
Will Smith slapped Chris Rock, and the internet seems to feel that Jada Pinkett Smith is the cause of it all. Things keep getting worse and worse as to the internet being convinced that Jada doesn’t love her husband, which is why she “allowed” him to walk on stage in the first place.
This morning after news came out that Will Smith is banned from the Oscars for the next decade, (yes, 10 whole years) The NY Post dropped an article revealing the time Jada Pinkett confessed that she “really didn’t want to get married” to Will Smith.
In fact, the “Matrix” actress admitted to “crying down the freaking aisle” before tying the knot with the “Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” star on New Year’s Eve in 1997.
“I was under so much pressure, you know, being a young actress, being young, and I was just, like, pregnant and I just didn’t know what to do,” declared Pinkett Smith, 50, in a freshly exhumed snippet from her “Red Table Talk” Facebook series. “I never wanted to be married.”
In the clip from 2018 — which has resurfaced amid renewed controversy around her louche “entanglement” with R&B singer August Alsina, 29 — Pinkett Smith candidly recalls her mother, Adrienne Banfield-Norris, also known as “Gammy,” 68, forcing her and Smith to wed after she became pregnant with their first son together, Jaden, now 23.
“I really didn’t wanna get married,” Pinkett Smith restated while seated around the circular table with her mom, as well as Smith, 53, and their daughter Willow, 21.
“We only got married because Gammy was crying,” a chuckling Smith informed Willow.
“It was almost as if Gammy was like, ‘You have to get married, so let’s talk about the wedding,’” said Pinkett Smith, prompting Banfield-Norris to confess, “I remember feeling very strongly and wanting you guys to be married.”
The “Girls Trip” star’s mother was just 18 when she became pregnant with Pinkett Smith, and briefly married her father, Robsol Pinkett Jr.
“I do remember [wanting you and Will to get married] but I don’t remember your rejection of the idea of marriage,” Banfield-Norris added. “I remember the rejection of the idea of a wedding but not of a marriage.”
Pinkett Smith then recalled being browbeaten into Big Day submission.
“And now Gammy done gone to Will, crying about ‘I don’t want a wedding,’ and now I’m being forced to have a wedding,” she said. “I just wanted it to be the two of us on a mountain because I was like: ‘This is serious business.’”
It gets worse…..
Jada and Will married at the Gothic-style Cloisters Castle in a suburb of her hometown, Baltimore, Maryland. And, despite their picturesque venue, Pinkett Smith and her mom both acknowledged that it was less than stellar.
“The wedding was horrible,” Banfield-Norris conceded. “It was a mess. Jada was sick, she was very unpleasant … She didn’t cooperate with anything.”
Laughing, Pinkett Smith agreed, saying, “And I was so upset that I had to have a wedding. I was so pissed I went crying down the freaking aisle. I cried the whole way down the aisle.”
Conversely, Smith — who, in March, earned his first Oscar for a masterful portrayal of Venus and Serena Williams’ father, Richard Williams, 80, in the feature film “King Richard” — was positively giddy on their wedding day.
“There wasn’t a day in my life that I wanted anything other than being married and having a family,” he said during the episode. “From literally 5 years old, I was picturing what my family would be.”
Jada is a beast!. She also got upset with Will for throwing her a birthday party.
This is heartbreaking to say the least. There’s acting, there’s attention to your brand, and then there is destroying the brand of a man who has worked so hard to get to where he is. Yet this is what people tell you to be, honest and authentic.
Like I said yesterday, this is an entire movie. Lifetime or the movie theater. It’s coming.
L[/dropcpcap]isten, this Will Smith situation isn’t going away any time soon. So just buckle your seatbelts and enjoy the show. Popcorn is not included, and Jujubee’s, Starbucks, Sour Watermelon and skittles are like gold coins these days. Expensive, like this mess of an entangled marriage that the actor Will Smith has found himself in.
New video from 2019, of Will Smith giving his wife Jada Pinkett, a stern warning to stop invading his privacy — saying, “Don’t use me” for clout — has a resurfaced and is going viral on social media.
The 49-second clip — which was initially filmed by Jada Pinkett Smith on her Instagram Live — has clocked thousands of views on Reddit since it popped up in the wake of Smith’s assault on comedian Chris Rock at the Oscars last month.
Jada Pinkett Smith, 50, initially made the video to promote her chat show “Red Table Talk,” with the vision showing her state: “You know [therapist] Esther Perel is coming to the table — she’s gonna be at the ‘Red Table.’”
She then flashes the camera on her husband and asks: “Would you say she has been instrumental in you and I redefining our relationship?”
Smith looks irritated by the question and kindly responds: “I would say don’t just start filming me without asking me.”
Pinkett Smith seemingly brushes off her husband’s request, telling viewers she is “still dealing with foolishness.”
Is Jada saying Will had better bow down to HER demands? What is going on here?
She then continues to probe her movie-star spouse, saying: “Would you say that she [Perel] helped us heal the hurts that we caused between one another?”
The continued questioning is clearly frustrating the “Men In Black” star, who snaps back: “My social media presence is my bread and butter. So you can’t just use me for social media. Don’t just start rolling; I’m standing in my house. Don’t start rolling.”
If this isn’t acting, this is absolutely heartbreaking. The life of movie star Will Smith who is a great legendary actor, has been turned into a movie by his wife. What are your thoughts?
They say a woman should never be afraid to lose a man, and Jada is a prime example of such a woman….
Another one bites the dust. The next strain of Covid should be named The Marriage Canceler… The Outbreak was the start of many marriages coming to an end.

iHeart Radio Reports: Longtime Saturday Night Live star Kenan Thompson and his wife, Christina Evangeline, have reportedly decided to end their marriage of 11 years.
Sources told TMZ that the couple — who have been together nearly 15 years — had actually separated more than a year ago and successfully co-parented their two daughters, Georgia and Gianna, with Thompson working on his show Kenan in Los Angeles and Evangeline staying in New York City.
Neither Thompson or Evangeline has filed for divorce as of TMZ’s report on Thursday (April 7), but are expected to do so “in the near future.”
A source told TMZ that the couple grew apart but remained great friends through their separation.
Thompson, 43, and Evangeline, 33, wed at an Aquarium in Atlanta — the SNL cast member’s hometown — in 2011 and had initially met when Christina was working as an interior designer at the age of 19.
Thompson initially achieved his first acting success as a child star, which included film roles in Heavyweights, D2: The Mighty Ducks and Good Burger, a spinoff of a skit from the popular Nickelodeon sketch comedy show All That that he and co-star Kel Thompson were apart of prior to their own series, Kenan & Kel.
The Atlanta native initially joined SNL in 2003 and is the longest-running cast member in the show’s nearly 47-year history.
FACTS ABOUT KENAN
Kenan Thompson was born on May 10, 1978, in Atlanta, Georgia,
Kenan has a net worth of $14 Million, which may be divided with his wife.
Kenan Thompson’s mother enrolled him in acting classes at age five and he later began his acting career in the early 1990s. He was an original cast member of Nickelodeon’s sketch comedy series All That.
Kenan Thompson got introduced to Christina through talent manager Danny Estrada. The pair started dating and eventually decided to get married on November 11, 2011 – 11/11/11 and now they are splitting after being together for 11-years.
It appears that Meagan Good is off the market for all of the men who were sitting on the side patiently waiting for never to come. LOL Men LOVE watching their crush online, but never making moves.
Battle rapper Dizaster has reportedly swept Meagan off her feet just a few months after she split from her husband, DeVon Franklin.
According to MTO News, she is already dating another man.
Sources close to both Meagan, 40, and Dizaster, 37, tell MTO News that the two are smitten with each other after working out together in a sweltering gym in L.A.
Dizaster posted two photos that show them relaxing after a strenuous workout together in Los Angeles.
He captioned the images: “Twitter People… How mad are u on a scale of 1 to infinity?”
Not much is known about Dizaster. He is a battle rapper with about 6,000 Twitter followers.
Meagan’s male fans were just as confused when the pics came out. While some refused to believe that Disaster was romantically tied to the “35 & Ticking’ Actress. (watch that movie)
Mad bout what? It's just a picture..now if u telling us u hit that's a different story 👀 lol
At the moment Dizaster has almost 6,000 Twitter followers and has his own podcast. Perhaps Megan let him take the pic to promote. This doesn’t look like dating. If so I would definitely appear that Megan who is literally a Goddess, is unnecessarily trying too hard and may need to go back to Jesus and her beloved husband. To go from a well-known pastor to a barely known battle rapper is a deep jump. Even the blue outfit…. says a lot about FREEDOM.
My senses are telling me that Megan is on a journey fighting to find herself and desires to break free from all expectations and conformity. I wish her the best of luck with that. But I’m not voting for Disaster at this moment.
Others are hoping she goes for more of a Russell Wilson type… We shall see.
