[News] Lil Xan pulls gun out in 7-Eleven parking lot

Lil Xan pulled a gun out on a man in a 7-Eleven parking lot. The man was ridiculing the rapper for calling Tupac “boring” and called Xan names such as “little bitch”.

Lil Xan wasn’t having any of it and took out his handgun and pointed it at the man, asking “What the fuck do you want, bruh?” He also dropped the n-word as he was getting into his car.

Lil Xan continued to yell and wave his gun from inside the passenger seat. The man was filming and mocked Xan by telling him to wave the gun around more for the camera.

The rapper responded to the whole incident by posting an Instagram story, claiming that the video purposefully made him look bad and he only pulled his gun out in self defense.

I’m skeptical of Xan’s explanation since it didn’t seem like he was in any real danger in the video. The only reason he should have pulled out his gun is if the man were physically attacking him or had a gun of his own out. Maybe the guy filming had a gun out that we couldn’t see but that seems unlikely.

[News] David Ortiz shot at a nightclub in Dominican Republic

Former Boston Red Sox slugger David Ortiz was shot at a nightclub, Dial Bar and Lounge, in the Dominican Republic.  

The news comes from his father, Leo Ortiz, who said that the bullet entered and exited through David’s abdomen. Although original reports stated that the injuries weren’t severe, Leo later stated that the doctors had to remove part of David’s intestines, gallbladder, and colon. He is however “out of danger” and “Big Papi will be around for a long time”.

According to ABC News, the man who shot Big Papi is Eddy Feliz Garcia, and he was roughed up by fans outside the nightclub, before being turned over to the police.

David Ortiz is currently in a hospital in Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic.

[News] In an interview, Rihanna reveals what drives her

In an interview with the cleverly named Interview Magazine, Rihanna shared details on different aspects of her career, life, and success.

With the task of being involved in many fields besides just music, she explained that creativity is actually a motivation in and of itself. “I had one dream, and that was for my music to be heard all over the world, but the thing that keeps me passionate is being creative. With every business outlet, I’m making something from a vision to a reality, and that’s the thing I really enjoy. Music had led me to these other outlets, and to things that I genuinely love.”

I’m just going to play devil’s advocate for a second and say that this actually doesn’t surprise me much. When you’re as famous and successful as Rihanna, not many people are going to say no to you. Her vision may not even be that creative or great, but it would be simple to turn it into a reality. I envy her and I’m sure that it is super fun to come up with ideas if any of them could actually be realized if she wanted to.  

[News] Brooklyn street renamed in honor of Notorious B.I.G.

[News] Brooklyn street renamed in honor of Notorious B.I.G.

Legendary rapper, Biggie Smalls has gotten a Brooklyn street renamed in his honor.

The corner of Fulton Street and St. James Place in Clinton Hill became “Christopher ‘Notorious B.I.G.’ Wallace Way” on Monday. Uncoincidentally, this street is in the same neighborhood that Biggie grew up in, so many years ago.

The street is near a few murals dedicated to Biggie, including the one on Quincy Street and Bedford Avenue, “King of New York”.

According to Stereogum, the renaming was mostly thanks to Brooklyn resident LeRoy McCarthy, who also contributed to having Biggie’s birthday, May 21st, renamed as Notorious B.I.G. Day in Brooklyn in 2016.

[News] Justin Bieber challenges Tom Cruise to a fight on Twitter

[News] Justin Bieber challenges Tom Cruise to a fight on Twitter

In a tweet that came out of nowhere, Justin Bieber has challenged Tom Cruise to a fight in the octagon, and called out to UFC president Dana White to put on the fight.

Cruise has not commented on the tweet, and many expect him to decline. However that hasn’t stopped others from outlining the matchup.

@PMTsportsbiz laid out the details on the two unlikely fighters in a tweet. Cruise is more than double Bieber’s age at 56 and 25, and has twice the net worth, at $570M and $265M. However, Bieber is two inches taller and has a three inch longer estimated reach.

Despite this apparent physical disparity, many expect that Tom Cruise would destroy Justin. Cruise trains regularly for his action movies, and often does his own stunts. Also, he is likely 15 pounds bigger than Bieber, though his weight is unclear.

In a tweet, UFC fighter Conor McGregor offered to host the fight and mocked Cruise, saying that the fight would only happen if he is “man enough to accept the challenge” and “Does Cruise have the sprouts to fight, like he does in the movies?”

Though this fight would be huge and very entertaining, I just don’t see it happening.
