During her interview with former Hills stars Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt on their podcast “Make Speidi Famous Again“, Rose revealed that she felt former Bey BFF Gwyneth Paltrow was the infamous “Becky” that caused the rift between the Carters.

“I definitely think that Gwyneth Paltrow is ‘Becky with the good hair.’ I feel like she was the one who was like, f–king JAY Z,” Amber said. “They were like friends, and then, like, you don’t see Gwyneth Paltrow with Beyonce anymore. It just seems like she was the one that was f–king JAY Z.”

Paltrow hearing of the news immediately denied the allegations to People Magazine, with her reps releasing a statement calling the rumor “completely absurd and 100 percent false.” A source close to Paltrow also told the publication that  “Gwyneth and Beyoncé and JAY Z are still very close friends so none of this makes any sense.”

Since the public response from Paltrow, Amber Rose has also recanted her statement via Twitter in a since-deleted tweet saying that the whole assessment was a joke.

“Bruh we were joking on a Podcast!” she tweeted on Thursday, July 26. “I have no information about anyone’s Personal life.”

 “I felt the pressure, getting older, to experience new things and I did it against my better judgment because I talk about sex a lot.”

Though she stated she would never do it again, her witty and sometimes inappropriate commentary may have earned her the curve of the century. After sharing something so intimate, clearly she tried to lighten the mood with a gag.

“You know what maybe I’ll call my baby daddy tonight!”

Whether Wiz is a fan of her work and listened to support her, or simply heard the gossip around town that Amber was considering him as her next dick appointment, he took no time to respond to her publicly.

Though he ended his tweet with peace and love, there clearly is some sting and maybe a little bitterness in his message. Amber has not responded yet, “yet” being the key word. It’s also important to note that Wiz’s birthday was yesterday and he posted the iced out Rolex, Amber gifted him. Maybe she is trying to win back her ex hubby? 

Whether the few occurrences were simple and friendly mentions, Wiz is clearly not here to start any speculations or entertain Amber and her impositions. Amber clearly doesn’t have a filter and says what’s on her mind, which is honorable. But maybe she should add a little filter when it comes to the men in her life. The public curve has the power to ruin a great friendship.

She offers no apologies for her sexuality, but with a new television show, is Amber Rose taking full advantage of her newfound forum?

Early this summer, when the Amber Rose Show was announced, dedicated Rosebuds (as she affectionately calls her fans) and critics alike knew they’d have tons of new material to either love or loathe. Since premiering July 8th, Amber Rose, has been as likable as she’s been controversial, but has she been substantive?

On a July 29th episode, she recalled asking her ex-husband and father to her three-year old son,Wiz Khalifa, to go half on a second child,

You know that we have Sebastian together and I really, really want another baby, so I asked him for his sperm like I always do every time I’m around him…but instead he put his babies on my face, thanks Wiz!

Of course, people laughed or gasped and she later addressed the fact that ultimately, people had more of a problem that she may have enjoyed the aforementioned act than whether or not Khalifa ejaculated.

Equality for women–especially in the media–is a cause near and dear to  Rose’s heart. She’s created her own version of the feminist staple event “SlutWalk,” (calling it the “Amber Rose Awareness Festival”) she’s quick to shut down any critique of her dating life, the pictures she takes or her views on women being sexually equal to their male counterparts. While this is all commendable, some may take issue with her actions as a host.

I’m not asking Ye’s infamous ex to be the next Gloria Steinem, infiltrating the world of hip-hop to expose misogyny the way Steinem turned the Playboy franchise on it’s head in the ’60s by becoming a bunny and writing scathing exposes. No. However, Rose simply saying something remotely empowering (mostly scripted) without her authentic narrative behind it or a probing dialogue with her guests? That’s as close as we get to a genuine discussion and I fully believe she’s capable of more.

She has tastemakers, trendsetters and the people who have the attention of our youth, during their formative years on her show. She can try asking French Montana what he really thinks of the “SlutWalk.” Have  O.T. Genasis explain why he came for a young African American woman’s hair on TV. Question Nick Cannon on the hypocrisy surrounding women he’s dated like Kim K. and Christina Milian. She’s this close to being able to touch upon something no one has before, something beyond frank sex talk and closer to frank talks about our sexuality, gender and race without shock value being the payoff.

Like her or not, she’s worked hard to own her own sexuality and she has a gift of asking people jarring questions while remaining endearing. What if she used these cunning powers for good and held these men to the fire? And No, I don’t want these artists to be crucified for the lyrics I love! I just want there to be some healthy discussion instead of using our sexuality as a punchline.

Rosebuds, don’t come after me! I still love me some Muva.

Ray J is potentially the first of those depicted naked in Kanye West’s “Famous” video, to take legal action. According to Daily Mail, Ray J and his manager, David Weintraub are in the midst of discussing plans to take legal action against Kanye West for the unauthorized inclusion and naked depiction of the R&B singer.

Earlier this month Kanye West released the largely controversial music video to his stand out track “Famous.” While there are many things to take away from The Life Of Pablo, one particular line had social media in an uproar.

“Too all my southside n***** that know me best/I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex/why? I made that b**** famous”

While this is obviously controversial for many reasons, its the visuals that now has people talking. The video in question is a 10:44 minute, avant-garde take on a few celebrities in which have directly affected Kanye’s own life. In proceeding order, George Bush, Anna Wintour, Donald trump, Rihanna, Chris Brown, Taylor Swift, Kanye West, Kim Kardashian-West, Ray J, Amber Rose, Caitlyn Jenner, and finally Bill Cosby, are all depicted naked in wax form, lying next to each other beneath white sheets, on a large bed. While the visuals alone would understandably be tough to digest for anyone, it appears to be the order in which they’ve been placed that’s causing Ray J the most pain. This stemming from years ago in which a sex tape between the now wife of Kanye West, Kim Kardashian, and former lover Ray J, propelled them into infamous stardom.

Regarding Ray J’s position on pursuing legal situation, Weintraub told Heat Magazine “We’re talking about potentially doing something. There’s too many times Kanye has done this. You can’t really continue to use people’s likenesses without either compensation or clearance. It seems to be becoming an issue—this is like the fourth time in six months he’s done this. We haven’t really worked anything out. There were kind of discussions but it’s getting old, so our legal team is working out what we want to do with everything.”

Legal action may be happening sooner rather than later considering Ray J isn’t too pleased with the amount of controversy the new music video has caused him in his personal life. Last week, Ray J told Entertainment Tonight “I’m engaged. My marriage is all messed up ’cause of craziness. I’m not part of nothing crazy. I walk down a good path. My fiancee tripping. It’s all bad in my world, and that ain’t cool. Don’t put me part of nothing that’s weird, that don’t make no sense. Can I grow up?”

It will be interesting to see how Ray J and his legal team proceed with this unusual case, however it looks like Kanye Wests tweet daring someone to sue him over the video may just come true after all (watch video below).
