The Education Department under Trump is restarting wage garnishment for defaulted student loans. That kicks off in January 2026. The first batch of scary letters hits about a thousand people right after the new year, with more added each month. They can take up to fifteen percent of what a borrower makes after taxes. This applies to federal student debt where the borrower is in default, which means they have missed payments for around nine months. Over five million people are currently in that nasty default category.
This whole garnishment thing had been frozen since the pandemic started. They slowly began other collections earlier, like seizing tax refunds. The new move is basically a return to the old, harsh way of doing business...
The internet is having a field day with this hypocrisy. Charlie Kirk, the Turning Point USA guy, is getting roasted because old footage shows him calling Nicki Minaj a terrible role model. He specifically said her music was inappropriate and dangerous for young Black women. Now his wife, Erika Kirk, just shared a stage with Minaj at their AmericaFest event.
Fans are pulling up the receipts where Kirk ranted about her lyrics. The whole thing looks incredibly calculated, like they are using her fame for credibility. Nicki Minaj herself used the platform to praise Donald Trump and criticize Gavin Newsom. But the partnership seems wildly awkward given the founder's past comments. It reeks of political opportunism, and everyone online is...
Venus Williams finally got married, and of course, it was a whole production across two countries. She and some actor named Andrea Preti did the thing first in Italy, then again in Florida. The Italian plan was the dream, but apparently, the paperwork for a foreigner takes forever. So they just did two weddings.
The Florida part involved a week of events, because why not? Her sister Serena gifted a yacht gathering, which is exactly the kind of overly lavish move you would expect. They had a courthouse ceremony for the legal part back in December. Preti called that day the second best of his life, which is a strangely specific ranking. The whole affair was deliberately over the top, mixing family stuff with gossip sessions and after...
Just when you think celebrity stream marathons cannot get more absurd, Drake outdoes himself. During one of their endless live streams on Kick, he decided to gift his co-host BenDaDonnn a customized Rolls-Royce Spectre Mansory. The vehicle is worth around eight hundred thousand dollars.
The whole thing was a staged reveal during a tour of Drake's personal garage. A driver pulled up in the aggressively modified Rolls, and Drake told a completely stunned Ben that the car was his. The recipient was basically speechless, fighting tears on stream. Viewers watched a man get handed the keys to a hyper luxury car in real time.
Now the internet is doing the math, because obviously. Everyone is wondering who covers the insane insurance and...
That reality TV person, Premadonna, is at it again with the ridiculously priced food. She just dropped a holiday gumbo stocking for one hundred twenty-five bucks. The thing serves four people and gets vacuum sealed with rice, crab, shrimp, and sausage. You can pick it up in a tree-shaped pan if you are local.
This follows her last stunt, selling a fully cooked turkey for seven hundred fifty dollars. For people who want her gumbo cheaper, a frozen version goes for forty two dollars online. She also has a non-seafood option with collard greens and turkey.
Her whole brand is built on this luxury kitchen gimmick. She once sold a slow cooker for over five hundred dollars. An air fryer covered in Swarovski crystals originally cost two...
DK Metcalf got slapped with a two-game suspension for going after a fan in Detroit. The league said he violated conduct rules by starting a physical confrontation. This costs him over half a million per game in lost salary. His future guaranteed money, around forty-five million dollars, might also be in jeopardy.
The fan, Ryan Kennedy, says he never used a racial slur through his lawyers. Video shows Metcalf swiping at him after some exchanged words. Metcalf is appealing the suspension. The Pittsburgh Steelers will be without their top receiver for games against Cleveland and Baltimore. The whole mess puts their division title hopes in a rough spot right now.
Of course, another rapper is getting a fancy corporate title. Big Sean just landed a new gig as the Detroit Pistons' Creative Director of Global Experience. The team wants him to help mix sports with lifestyle stuff worldwide while repping Detroit.
They launched some initiative called Creatives Across Continents with him. It asks artists everywhere to submit designs inspired by the team. Big Sean will curate the whole thing. Selected work turns into a merchandise collection dropping in 2026.
This is basically a promotion from his old job as their Innovation Director. He already worked on practice jerseys, special uniforms, and arena events for them. The plan is to keep doing more around All-Star Weekend and other big dates. The...
Ciara is out here manifesting hard for 2026. She wants more music, more success, and honestly just more zeros in her bank account. The singer mentioned all this at some awards event. She basically teased a tour coming soon.
She gave a lot of credit to TikTok for keeping her career young. Her old hits keep trending with teenagers, which she finds hilarious and motivating. Someone told her they just heard a track from 2006, and her response was basically 'where have you been'. Songs like Level Up keep blowing up on the app over and over.
Being an independent artist right now is working for her. She said it's a blessing when a song drops and the whole world sings along because of social media. The plan is clearly to ride that wave into...
Nina Parker just admitted she quit hosting those insane VH1 reunions because it got too real. She said the environment was completely volatile. This was on a podcast interview recently.
She described audience members rushing the stage to fight cast members. Even family and cousins would jump into physical altercations. The chaos spilled backstage, where hairstylists started throwing hands over drama. Security got so intense that they used metal detectors just to get to the set.
Parker said she simply aged out of that life. She acknowledged the platform helped her career but called it unsustainable. In her late twenties, she could handle the nonsense, but eventually her maturity made it impossible. She recognized the need to pivot for...
