Kanye West has shared a photograph of him kissing his ex-wife Kim Kardashian after he vowed he would get them back together.

The Donda rapper, 44, took to his Instagram stories to share an old photo of him and then-wife Kim embracing.

While he didn’t add a caption, the photo includes a headline from TMZ stating: ‘Kanye West says God will bring Kim, 41, and him back together, inspire millions’.

The headline is in reference to a speech Kanye made at a charity event in LA earlier this week, where he stated he was determined to get back together with his wife.

In the speech, Kanye said he will fix his marriage as God wants them to see that ‘everything can be redeemed’.

The chart-topper went on to say that he would be ‘changing the narrative’ around his marriage and that he would not let E! or Hulu – two channels where the Kardashians have reality shows – ‘write the narrative on my family’.

Saying that he was trying to express himself in the ‘most sane way’, Kanye added simply: ‘I need to be back in my home.’

He said that ‘if the enemy can separate Kimye’, it makes ‘millions of families feel that separation is okay.

But when ‘God brings Kimye together’, those millions of families will be ‘influenced’ to ‘overcome the work of the separation, of trauma the devil has used…’

Kanye also opened up about their marriage in a Thanksgiving prayer on Thursday, where he said he ’embarrassed’ Kim when he vocally supported then-president Donald Trump and then tried to run for president himself.

The speech came after Yeezy told the podcast and YouTube series Drink Champs that he and Kim were ‘not even divorced’ as he has ‘never seen the papers’.

Referring to her as his wife throughout the interview, the rapper said their children ‘want their parents to stay together, I want us to be together.’

Kim, however, appears to have moved on with Saturday Night Live comedian Pete Davidson, 28.

Rumours about the two swirled for weeks after they were seen holding hands and heading out for dinner together after kissing during a sketch on SNL for an episode Kim was hosting.

But while neither have officially commented on the rumours, the pair were seen this week holding hands and giggling together in a car – and if that’s not enough to sent the rumour mill into overdrive, Pete was sporting what looked to be a fairly considerable love bite.

Kanye, meanwhile, is rumoured to be dating model Vinetria, 22, after the pair attended a basketball game at his Donda Academy school in Minneapolis.

Tyler Perry – From Poor as Hell to Billionaire https://dailyconcord.com/tyler-perry-from-poor-as-hell-to-billionaire/ Tue, 01 Sep 2020 19:37:31 +0000 https://dailyconcord.com/?p=14904 Tyler Perry – Damn, it’s hot out here,” says Tyler Perry, who isn’t making it easy

Tyler Perry
Damn, it’s hot out here,” says Tyler Perry, who isn’t making it easy on himself, clad in all black but for the shock of a white mask, as he directs a 12-person crew through a scene for the BET comedy Sistas. Last year, Perry might have avoided shooting in Atlanta’s July sun, but in this coronavirus era, you take any window you can, and “Camp Quarantine” at his Tyler Perry Studios is trying to pioneer post-pandemic entertainment making. 

“Get out of the car,” he calls out to an actor in a cop car who walks over to a silver pickup driven by show regular Devale Ellis. Then he feeds Ellis his line—“What’d I do?” No one seems to have seen the script. When you’re looking to get an entire season of primetime television in the can in 11 days—all before the rest of Hollywood has made it out of hiding—corners must be cut. 

Away from the shoot, sitting alone on a metal folding chair in the centre of a cavernous and empty soundstage, a container of Lysol wipes at his feet, Perry explains his method. “I mostly go on my gut and my instinct. I like to challenge the system and see what I can do differently.” 

That’s an especially winning strategy in a system that feels stacked against you. Mostly dismissed by the Hollywood establishment and even some other Black luminaries (Spike Lee once derided Perry’s crass slapstick approach as “coonery buffoonery” before later relenting), Perry has succeeded for two reasons: He has honed a product that too many others viewed as destined for the discount bin. And he made sure to control it all. 

The 51-year-old entertainer owns the entirety of his creative output, including more than 1,200 episodes of television, 22 feature films and at least two dozen stage plays, as well as a 330-acre studio lot at the edge of Atlanta’s southern limits. He used that control to leverage a deal with ViacomCBS that pays him $150 million a year for new content and gives him an equity stake in BET+, the streaming service it debuted last September. Forbes estimates Perry has earned more than $1.4 billion in pretax income since 2005, which he used to buy homes in Atlanta, New York, Los Angeles and Jackson Hole, Wyoming, as well as two planes. Quite a lifestyle for a once-homeless playwright raised in poverty in New Orleans. Today, Forbes estimates his net worth at $1 billion, with a clear path to future membership in The Forbes 400.

“I love when people say you come from ‘humble beginnings,’ ” he says. “[It] means you were poor as hell.” It also makes success sweeter. “Ownership,” he adds, “changes everything.”

Ellen Show executives were aware of ‘toxic’ workplace allegations in 2018. An investigation took place in 2018 following a complaint alleging gender discrimination and sexism at the “Ellen DeGeneres Show” — two years before three executive producers left the show following an investigation into the show’s workplace culture.

One current and one former employee of the “Ellen Show” told BuzzFeed News that the complaint was filed to an unidentified industry union, prompting the investigation, which was confirmed by a spokesperson for Warner Bros. to BuzzFeed News.

The spokesperson said the matter was “resolved with no merit to claims of gender discrimination” and that “there is nothing new or noteworthy about this issue.”

The news of the 2018 investigation follows the departure of three executive show producers — Ed Glavin, Kevin Leman, and Jonathan Norman — earlier this month after BuzzFeed News’ reporting of a toxic workplace environment, according to two current and 71 former show staffers.

Executives at the Ellen Show were made aware of toxic workplace allegations in 2018 — two years before three top producers were ousted as a result, BuzzFeed News reported Tuesday.

One current and one former staffer of the show told BuzzFeed News that a complaint alleging gender discrimination and sexism was filed to an unnamed industry union in 2018, prompting an investigation from the show’s distributor, Warner Bros.

A Warner Bros. spokesperson confirmed to BuzzFeed News that an outside investigator looked into the complaint but it was “resolved with no merit to claims of gender discrimination” and that “there is nothing new or noteworthy about this issue.”

“As previously stated, we are committed to changing the things that need to change and moving forward in a constructive and positive way,” the spokesperson said.

The news of the 2018 complaint follows the departure of three executive show producers — Ed Glavin, Kevin Leman, and Jonathan Norman — following BuzzFeed News’ reporting and subsequent investigation on the alleged toxic work environment, according to two current and 71 former staffers.

WarnerMedia launched an internal investigation into the workplace culture, which is still ongoing and “nearing its conclusion,” according to David McGuire, executive vice president of programming at Warner Bros., citing the BuzzFeed News report.

Host Ellen DeGeneres, executive producers Mary Connelly, Andy Lassner, and Derek Westervelt appeared in a video conference with employees Monday to address the workplace complaints. DeGeneres also apologized to staff in an email at the end of July for failing to create a workplace culture where “everyone would be treated with respect.”

Kylie Jenner will sell the majority of her cosmetics company for $600 million (£463 million). The 22-year-old’s brand, including Kylie Cosmetics and Kylie Skin, will be controlled by beauty giant Coty.

Kylie says she is building the brand into an “international beauty powerhouse”.

Forbes reported that she made $360 million in sales in 2018, making her the youngest self-made billionaire ever.

The chairman of Coty’s board called Kylie a “modern-day icon, with an incredible sense of the beauty consumer”.

Her online influence is so powerful that she reduced Snapchat’s stock market value by $1.3bn (£1bn) when she tweeted that she does not use the app anymore.

The reality TV star launched her brand in 2015 with a line of lipsticks, and has since then branched out into face make-up and skincare.

Although she’s the youngest, Kylie is the highest earner in the Kardashian family.

She faced backlash after being named a “self-made” billionaire but defended herself saying that none of her money has come from inheritance.

She has more than 151 million followers on her personal Instagram account, as well as 22 million on her Kylie cosmetics account.

Coty, which owns brands like Burberry and Hugo Boss, will have a 51% stake in the company.

It said the deal will be completed in 2020.
