Tiffany Haddish was one of the many celebrities to attend the memorial service for George Floyd on Thursday (June 4th), but one particular moment during Rev. Al Sharpton's speech is rubbing people the wrong way. In a clip from the memorial for George, who was killed at the hands of four police officers last week, Al Sharpton acknowledges the myriad of celebrities in the room, listing off stars like Kevin Hart, Ludacris, Tyrese, Will Packer, Master P, and T.I.
However, after it appears that someone has brought to Sharpton's attention that Tiffany Haddish is also present, he asks the room, "is Tiffany here?" after which Tiffany's voice can be heard presumably telling the famed Baptist minister that she is, in fact, there.
Although Tiffany didn't appear to be "demanding" a shout out from Sharpton or "complaining" that he forgot about her, the comedian still got a ton of heat for her conduct at the memorial.
However, others pointed out that she never even asked to be acknowledged.
Some instead found it strange that Sharpton was even shouting out celebrities at a funeral in the first place.
Akademiks Breaks His Chair In Excitement After Receiving Drake Shoutout
After Drake gave him a shoutout on Instagram live, DJ Akademiks went so ham with excitement that he actually broke his chair.
The stan really jumped out with this one. On Friday, while Drake was celebrating the release of his new mixtape, Dark Lane Demo Tapes, over Instagram live, he gave a certain someone a special shout out, and that certain someone proceeded to lose their shit. Akademiks was streaming Drizzy's live session on Twitch, and it's safe to say he was pretty stoked when he heard Drake mention his name.
In a clip from the Twitch stream, Drake says, "Akademiks, you're allowed on the live tonight, man. We had a good talk the other day, man. You're allowed on live tonight." He proceeds to play the previously-released "Chicago Freestyle" that appears on Dark Lane Demo Tapes, while Akademiks yells "Let's goooooooo!" at the top of his lungs. He starts jumping up and down and spinning in circles, freaking out so hard that he actually causes concrete damage. "I just broke my chair!" he declares, although he shows little concern for the piece of furniture. He goes on to shout, "I TOLD YOU!" to everybody watching, before pounding his fists on the wall. The moment clearly meant a lot to him, and his reaction was so intense that it actually froze Drake's screen during the Twitch session.
Kim Kardashian Gives Tristan Thompson Surprising Birthday Shoutout
In surprising fashion, Kim wishes Tristan a happy 29th birthday.
It looks like Kim Kardashian is back on good terms with Khloe’s ex-boyfriend Tristan Thompson. On Friday, the Keeping Up With The Kardashian star took to her social media to wish Tristan a happy 29th birthday not just once, but TWICE.
One of the snaps was a selfie, which showcased Kim & Tristan Thompson smiling for the camera. “I think this is our only pic together @realtristan13,” the Kimoji creator wrote atop the image.
Later, she wished Tristan a happy birthday by sharing another pic of herself at the Cleveland Cavaliers and Los Angeles Lakers game in January, where she made headlines for reportedly booing Tristan. She would later set the record straight by explaining that she was simply cheering on the Cleveland Cavaliers player while sitting courtside alongside Kanye West.
"Happy Birthday @RealTristan13!!!" Kim shared on Instagram Stories with her 162 million followers. "Cheering loud for you today! Can't wait to celebrate soon!” she added.
Check out pic and b-day shoutouts (below) courtesy of Kim's twitter account. Do you find it odd that Kim is now on good terms with Tristan or is she being a good sister?
