Peace to the planet. It's Friday. We made it. So twisty last night. Day after

Powerhouse. I don't remember. First of all, they should never make us do interviews after a certain amount of time. Because I was at Powerhouse. I was there before both of y'all. While I was waiting for you guys. Well, traffic was crazy. Everybody was like, let's do a shot, let's do a shot. And every time somebody new came in the room, they're like, come on, let's do a shot, let's do a shot. There was no alcohol in the room.

Yeah, it's amazing how when we was there, nobody was offering us shots. I was number water. Yeah, but you had all the shots. That's why there was no more liquor when we got there. No, there was plenty. I was in the room that had the drinks, the bar. Yeah, but Ye had all the shots. That's why there was no more liquor when we got there, huh? No, there was plenty. I was in the room that had the drinks, the bar. Yeah, it's called the bar. Yeah.

Obviously. Did you see? Do you remember when you almost fell? When did I almost fall? You walking out with the camera, and I think you might have tripped or something, and you was stumbling. Somebody had to catch you? No.

Yeah? Oh, yeah. Do you remember smoking Weevil with Khalifa? Yeah, I saw a video of it. I saw a video of it. I saw a video of it. Listen, and that was the other thing. I still feel the Khalifa-Kush hangover effects. Well, congratulations.

I woke up today. I still feel a little out of it. But another thing that happened yesterday, and this is why I had to do some shots, was because I didn't drive there. I took an Uber. Yeah. And I let my friends drive my car.

I said, listen, you guys drive and park. I'm going to just Uber over. Okay. What do you think happened? They got into a wreck. They crashed? Yes, they had a little fender. They crashed your Panda?

Yes, they had a little fender bender. Damn it, man. And I do have a Widex 6. And right when they were telling me the story, designer jumps on stage and Panda comes on. Designer's crazy. I don't know what he's on. If it's just life, he is just too much

energy. Too much energy. Sometimes I feel like he just needs to sit down. No, I think he'd be high. Yeah, he's having a great time in life. It's a combination of two. He needs to sit down. No, no. If you were to see an interview with Angie Martinez. If somebody was like, oh, he's on alcohol, he's on drugs. I'd say, oh, he's also 19

old man. Like the young man cook, okay? Yeah. Now, I don't know where to go with this. Well, yesterday was powerhouse. It was powerhouse. That's basically what we're saying here. We got some interviews with some people that we met last night.

Do we have to? Yes. Why? It's part of the thing. Can't we just talk about being there? No. None of the interviews from backstage are, like, really great, because none of us are really talking to the people.

Like, come on. And listen, there was only probably one interview I did that I was not. Who did we interview? That I was sober. What? Who? When we did Young M.A. That was the first interview.

Then after that, I just went down. Wiz. Yeah, Young M.A. was good. I wasn't there for Young M.A. I talked to Fat Joe, salute to Fat Joe. And then what happened with you and Tory Lanez? What happened? All I heard was somebody sending DP pics or something like that.

DP? Somebody sent you penis pics? I get them all the time, by the way. From Tory Lanez? From Tory Lanez? No, in my Instagram. Did you ask Tory Lanez for a DP pic? I don't know.

Maybe. We were talking about it. You don't know what she'd be saying when she'd be high. No, I kind of remember half of that. I remember we were talking about it. Producer, did he ask her? Did she ask him? You might want to check your vagina for a condom this morning.

Yeah, but you did ask Tory Lanez for a DP pic. No might want to check your vagina for a condom this morning. You did ask Tori Layne for a deep. No, I asked him if he does a lot of sexting and then if he sends out pictures. You don't remember. Stop having conversations with you this morning. You still high and drunk from last night, okay? She sound like the designer. Yeah, yeah, maybe you're right. All right.

Maybe you're right. Front page news, Yee? Yes. You really want Yee to report the news? You're right. You are right. And also, Issa. Issa Rae.

She be Issa. Issa Rae. That's the Issa. Issa Rae. It should be Issa. That's the homie. Issa Rae. That's the homie, Issa. Issa Rae from Insecure. And you're not even drunk or high. One of my favorite news shows that comes on HBO on Sundays at 1030. She has the web series, Awkward Black Girl.

She'll be here this morning. Okay. Yes. All right. We don't have to play any interviews from Powerhouse, do we? Good luck. Yes. Good luck with this show today.

We're going to have fun. Why? It's Friday. And here's Drake. Rihanna. It's too good. It's the breakfast of the morning.house, do we? Good luck. Yes. Good luck with this show today. We're going to have fun. It's Friday. And here's Drake. Rihanna. It's too good. It's the breakfast of the morning. Oh, my God.

More Drake? Yes. As much as we planned, he wasn't at Powerhouse. Sure wasn't. Some front page news. Thursday night football. The Titans beat the Jaguars 36-22. Now the Chicago debut.

Dwayne Wade did his thing. They won 105-99 against the Celtics. The Hawks beat the Wizards, Spurs beat the Kings, and the Clippers beat the Blazers. Now, Obama. Yes. He's freeing some people. Did he free Big Meech? Well, President Barack Obama commuted the sentences of 98 inmates.

Those inmates were mostly convicted on nonviolent drug charges. And he did say these are individuals, many of whom made mistakes at a young age, who have worked diligently to rehabilitate themselves while they were incarcerated. Did he free Bobby Smurda? No. If you really want to do something, Max B., Bobby Smurda, C. Murda.

Okay? Big Meech. A lot of these people had mandatory minimums, and it was nonviolent drug charges. Okay. Let's talk about Pence's plane. Yeah, I saw that this morning. Now, the reason why Republican Vice President's nominee, Mike Pence,

you know, he's Donald Trump's running mate, his plane skidded off the runway while he was at LaGuardia in New York City. We got a leave from LaGuardia today to go to Birmingham, Alabama, for Magic City Classic. So you know the airport was shut down for quite some time. Mike Pence tweeted, so thankful everyone on our plane is safe. Grateful for our first responders and the concern and prayers

of so many back on the trail. Why was Mike Pence on a regular plane? I don't think he was on a regular plane. I don't think he was on a regular plane. I heard LaGuardia and just thought regular plane. No, no. Trump's plane is at LaGuardia. Oh, okay.

Yeah, there were more than 30 people that were on board, but everybody is safe. All right. Well, that's front page news. Now, tell them why you're mad. 800-585-1051. If you're upset, you need to vent call us right now. Maybe you had a bad night, bad morning, whatever it may be. Maybe your friends drove your car and a little bang up situation happened.

That's why you got so drunk and high last night? I said I and high last night because you were trying to get over your car being hit? Yes. Once they told me that, I was like, all right, let me calm down. Everybody's fine. But I do need like 10 drinks after that. Wait till reality hits you today because you're sober. Is it total? No, no, no, no.

It's not that bad. They said somebody was trying. It was a lot of traffic yesterday. I know you guys know. So they were trying to get to Powerhouse at the Barclays, and somebody tried to make a lane where there was no lane and scraped up the whole side of the car. Geesh.

Wow. All right, well, tell them why you're mad. If you're upset, you need to vent call us right now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Hey, yo, this is DMX. You know what makes me mad?

When brr-brr asks for the truth but can't handle the truth. Now tell him why you mad on The Breakfast Club, bitches. How you doing? Hey, good morning. Tell him why you mad. I'm mad because my chick can't get her life together. That's what you get for dealing with bum bitches. Nah, she ain't a bum. She just ain't got her mom right like she was f***ed or something.

Okay, come on now. Why would you say that? Yo, for real, I don't a bum. She just ain't got her mom right. Like, she was f***ed or something. Okay, come on now. Why would you say that? Yo, for real, I don't understand the thought process of some chicks. Like, they really just be flipping out for, like, no reason. Like, my chick just caught me flipping out because she went out last night and got drunk. So she mad at you for that? Yeah. Like, how did that happen?

I don't know, bro. By the way, this ain't no bro. This is one of Young M.A.'s partners, right? Oh. He hung up. Oh. Oh, he hung up. I don't know, bro. By the way, this ain't no bro. This is one of Young M.A.'s partners, right? Oh, he hung up. Oh, he hung up. I don't know. Hello, who's this? Hi, this is Zena calling from Jacksonville, Florida.

How you doing? Hey, Zena. Tell them why you mad. I am so mad. I am working on a substitute teaching job for a maternity leave, and I have these 11th grade honor student English kids, and they want to go see Boys to Men and I think it would be such a positive experience for them.

And the tickets are outrageous. You from Jacksonville? Yes. And you got kids that want to see Boys to Men? Why not Boys in the Hood? Boys to Men? I'm trying to keep them out of the hood. That would be nice if you could get them to go to see Boys to Men.

How much do tickets cost? $45 for the lowest price ticket at this community college here. And these are 11th graders, and, you know, they're listening to music, and they're just going trying to find the oldies and the good stuff. They want to take a couple of their girlfriends, and I said, oh, I'm going to do what I can. But I'm on a substitute teacher salary. My husband's in the military.

I don't have the money to teach them. How many kids in the class? Oh, I've got about 20 in the class. About 15 would want to go. Add this up real quick, Keith. What's 25 times 15? Well, if you think about it, 10 times 45 is 450. 25 times 15.

Why would you do $45? And then plus 450 is $900. How much? $900. Listen, email breakfastclubam at gmail.com real quick. We're going to try to make this happen, okay? Doing it right now. Uncle Sean, you got a nice heart, bro.

What you talking about? He hasn't done anything yet. Tell him why you mad. $805, $851. Send some kids. First of all, I'm shocked that kids want to go see boys in the middle. I'm you too. This must be a slow class.

And you think about it. They're 11th grade? No. I feel like you should call Juan Ye and try to set up a meet and greet. That's possible too. All right. Call us up right now. up a meet and greet. That's possible, too. All right. Call us up right now. Tell them why you're mad.

It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. That was Khaled for free. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Now, a little bit later, we have Issa Rae joining us.

Yes. Salute to Issa Rae. I love her show, Insta Kill, on HBO every Sunday night at 1030. And a salute to that teacher who just called, too. Has she emailed yet, you? Not yet. Okay. Not yet.

We're going to get through kids to that Boys to Men concert. We're pretty cool with boys, man. We did a drop for them. Yeah, my people. Maybe we could slide them in. No, no. We did a drop. We did something for their special.

Yeah, and somebody on my team is real close to one of the boys. One of the boys. One of the boys. They're not boys anymore. One, yeah. They're men now. The former boy. We can make that happen.

We can wiggle them. We can make that happen. We can make that happen. All right, now we got rumors on the way, Yee? I can't believe this happened. Mariah Carey is no longer engaged. There's two sides to this story. She effed the money up.

Well, you know what? It just goes to show you that money isn't everything. Just because you're a billionaire. Okay, we'll get into that story when we come back. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. This is The Rumor Report with Angela

Yee. On The Breakfast Club. So listen up. Well, Mariah Carey was engaged to James Packer, the billionaire from Australia. It turns out now they are no longer engaged. It seemed a little weird when Mariah had her Halloween party and he wasn't there and all those pictures that they took. But the word was that he just doesn't like to do Halloween anything. So, okay, he wasn't there.

But now they're saying that James Packer broke up with Mariah because she had outlandish spending habits. Well, on Mariah's side of things, her people are saying a whole other story. They're saying that she had to leave him because he is mentally unstable. He has fluctuating moods and violent outbursts. So who broke up with who?

Listen, first the story was that he broke up with her, and then I guess as a rebuttal on her side, they're saying she broke up with him. By the way, this story don't sound far-fetched, because remember when Mariah Carey came here to the Breakfast Club, she had her own lighting director. We got the audio. Oh, we got it?

You had lighting come before then. She has her own personal lighting director. I'm not mad at her. That's why we need to cut these lights. Then they won't see us, though. No, no, no, but it'll be perfect because it'll be like a movie.

She said perfect. No, no, no. It's perfect if they don't see y'all. They won't see y'all. It's about me. Just about me. that's why I brought the lighting on again.

And by the way, that lighting director had been working for her for like 18 years. And let's keep it real, that Mariah has plenty of money of her own, so it's not like she got

to spend it. She ain't got no billionaires. Listen, let's be clear about something here. She has hundreds of millions. I'm sure Mariah Carey still got money, but let's just keep in mind Mariah Carey is doing reality TV now. And that was another thing they're saying on his side of things that he didn't like this whole reality TV that she's become obsessed with having

her show and everything. When you that level of star, you don't do reality TV because you want to. Alright, well it turns out that they've broken up and allegedly there's extreme animosity between both sides. They're saying the relationship was very turbulent for a long time, but the last straw was

they took a yacht trip to Greece a month ago and he did something to her assistant. We don't know what that something is. I'm sure at some point it will come out. But that's what they're saying. And that he was very jealous of her relationship with her dancer and choreographer as well. I don't know.

Mariah could be having money problems though. You think so? I mean, this is the rumor report. I'm just throwing a nice little rumor out there. I'm just saying. She's doing reality TV, bro. You don't do reality TV because you want to when you're that level of star. Now I gave you both sides.

Now let's hear what Mariah's rep is saying. Now her rep said to Entertainment Tonight that the couple had a huge argument while they were on vacation on a yacht in Greece and that she has not seen him since. But the fight had nothing to do with either them cheating or with Mariah's quote-unquote extensive spending. None of that. So maybe, perhaps, according to her rep, they haven't quite called it quits yet. Listen, man, if you spend money on a lighting director for 17-plus years, you probably do spend a lot of frivolous money. And they're saying that he's letting her keep that ring that he got her. That was like what? $10 million ring?

Oh, wow. Oh, no, she'd have to get that back. What? She'd definitely have to get that back. $10 million ring? No, wow. Oh, no, she'd have to get that back. What? She'd definitely have to get that back. $10 million ring? No, no, no, you got to get that back, ma. All right, now, this was a great idea.

It turns out that Tiana Taylor is going to be doing a workout video for all the people that want to look like Tiana Taylor. Now you perhaps can get a little bit closer to that if you get this workout video that she is doing. And why not? Yeah, you're going to have to work if you get this workout video that she is doing. And why not? Yeah. You're going to have to work out to get that body. Right. So after her, obviously, her Kanye West fade video, everybody's been talking about it.

So now her fitness workout video is called Fade to Fit. And she's taking sign-ups on her website before she starts telling all the secrets. And she did a little promo video for that as well. I saw that on the YBF. Okay. All right. Oh, and Donald Trump. Remember we told you about his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame?

Somebody chipped it away and took the star. Well, he actually sat down and talked to TMZ and he might be in some trouble now. I believe we have the audio. Let me see if we got it. Do we have it? Yeah, we have it yeah we have it the reason i did it was because of the amount of sexual assaults that not only my own family has experienced but that the many women that donald trump has done this to and uh the point of the exercise was to take the star

and uh auctioned off election day november 8th and then take that star and auction it off, Election Day, November 8th, and then take that money and distribute it to the women who've been sexually assaulted by Mr. Trump. But I am a nonviolent activist. I've been arrested maybe 24, 25 times. And so I will turn myself in. All right, well, he has been arrested, James Otis, and they said he was very cooperative

as officers arrested him for felony vandalism. Envy in his sleep this morning. You had that much to drink last night? I didn't drink. Oh. He had his kids there.

Traffic was crazy. I didn't get home until 3.30 or something like that. What? Should have left when I did. I told you when to leave.

I tried. My kids were like, I want to see Brayson Tiller. I just want to see Brayson Tiller. It took you three hours to get home?

No. The show ended at about 12.30. He said you got home at 3.30. Yeah. The show ended at about 1230. He said you got home at 330. Yeah, the show ended at 1230. We stopped, got something to eat. Oh, my goodness. You stayed there until 1230?

Yep. Wow, God bless you, brother. All right, well, I'm Angela Yee, and that's your Rumor Report. Thank you, Miss Yee. Now, when we come back, Issa Rae from HBO's Insecure will be joining us. Every Sunday at 1030, you can watch HBO Insecure. You might have seen her web series, Awkward Black Girl. I really love Insecure right now.

It's a great show. Okay, we'll talk to her when we come back. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning, here's Drake. Oh, God. Yep, it's the world's most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club.

Charlamagne Tha God, Angel Lee. We have a special guest here. We've been waiting for this young lady. That's right, we requested. Because we are fans of the show Insecure on HBO. And I'm not going to mess up your name. It's Issa Rae. Yes. Good for you. Boom.

Now, who is Issa Rae for people who don't know? First of all, I can't start this without saying I'm a huge fan. Y'all make me care about everybody. Really? No, it's y'all. Y'all and Terry Gross from Fresh Air are my favorite interviews. Hands down. But now I forgot your question. Oh, no. Who is Issa Rae? No, it's y'all. It makes me can't. Y'all and Terry Gross from Fresh Air are my favorite interviews. Wow.

Like, hands down. But now I forgot your question. Oh, no. Who is Issa Rae? Oh, I'm just the self-proclaimed awkward black girl who has a show on HBO now. That's a big deal. I'm a writer, producer. Writer, producer. Awkward black girl.

They don't usually give black people in general, but black women on HBO? A show that you're starring in, you're taking to produce, right? That you created. Created? I mean, it's been a long ass journey. I heard, like two years, right? Well, with them, three years. But like, you know, I've been doing this for about nine years.

Great YouTube series. Well, the first YouTube series I ever created was in 2007 when I was a senior in college. And then Awkward Black Girl is the series that kind of defined me and launched my career and that was in 2011. But I had two other ones before that one that, you know, were

moderately successful but this one by far is what launched my career. So you're kind of like an internet star. We don't give internet stars enough credit because it's always like the A-Towns and... Those are the real... I'm just saying like

this is a real... You know A-Town just signed a soldier boy just so you know. Are you kidding me? He really did. They just... Okay, but... He's a certified. He got an HBO show out of this. Yeah, but I still don't, I was never an internet star because they have like millions of viewers every day.

Like people don't really check for series in the same way that they do like one-offs or blogs or personalities. So we very much had to build from the ground up and I credit, you know, for sure, the viewers of this show, of Awkward Black Girl for the reason that I have a show on HBO now, for sure.

And I had a chance to get your book as well, The Misadventures of Awkward Black Girl. And I know you went on tour last year. I did. And it's a great connection because I know, I feel like I'm really awkward all the time too. And you're kind of like the female Seinfeld or something like that,

or maybe like Curb Your Enthusiasm, Larry David. Larry David, yes David. Larry David. Yes. In a way. I grew up watching their shows. I mean, Seinfeld for sure and then Larry David.

I just, I love how they take the minute, like the stuff that everybody goes through the little things and they amplify it and they make it funny

and I love just like relatable humor where you're just like, oh man, I just went through that or that's me, you know. Right.

And then you rap in the mirror about it. I do rap in the mirror, but in the show, you know, it's a way to just get that angst out and the frustration out is just like, I'm going to rap in the mirror because I'm not going to say this out loud, you know. So you don't do that in real life? No, I don't do that. I kind of felt like you do. I did too. I was like, that's kind of dope. Like I'm better than a diary. You know, I mean, She'll probably be at home

rapping in the mirror now after they watch Insecure. I mean, if it works for them, but no, I'm not really, I don't have skills like that. I'm more of a journal silent writer, and I am a bit more honest in real life. Like, if something's bothering me,

if I want to get something on my chest, I'm just going to say it. I've had to learn to do that. Now, I'm trying to decide if I feel sorry for you or for your boyfriend on the show because I'm not sure who I feel bad for sorry for the boyfriend but he's also like not doing nothing he's trying he's trying why y'all can't look at me that hard though because she's been with him and it was our five years he's been

unemployed for four years he's trying to dumps for like, you know, two. I get it. If he was rapping, I'd be like, all right, leave him. No, but he is trying. He wanted to do his app. It didn't work. And he is kind of crippled by failure. He's depressed and he doesn't know how to deal with that.

So it is like a very much, you know, you can, you have the right to feel bad for him. Right. Anyway, but then I felt bad like your birthday. He f***ed up my birthday. I don't care how depressed you are If it's my birthday The one day Where you just have to make A difference

Like make some sort of effort And he took me to 7-Eleven To rent a red box It wasn't even like Struggle love You heard Jaheem Jaheem's had to have Struggle love man

Oh you went in on Jaheem I didn't mean to You gotta stop Mentioning his name man because it never goes well. I mean, he's still going off on Twitter, too. Just don't mention his name. It doesn't exist. Are you really awkward, or is that just like a deflection because you are really strong,

but you just don't want everybody... You can be strong and awkward, I would think. No, because most very strong people are strong, but then they're like, oh, no, I'm awkward. Oh, no. Like a spook who sat by the door,, oh, no, I'm awkward. Oh, no. Like a spook who sat by the door, kind of. Oh, I like that. I like that reference. No, I'm for sure.

I'm always uncomfortable. I'm always socially uncomfortable. I'm an introvert. I'm shy. I'm all of those things. So I do identify as awkward. And even this, like the attention now to the show just makes it more so. Because I'm just like, I can't take compliments well.

Sometimes you got to just say thank you. I know, but I do. I appreciate it. Thank you. That's something that a lot of people have to work on when somebody says something nice to you. You just have to say, oh, thank you so much. I'm the same way. I'll be like, thank you.

That's the way I do. I'm the same way. I do not like compliments. I'm like, man, whatever. Why would you say thank you? I don't know why. I deal better with hate. It's more comfortable to me. I don't know why I deal better with hate. It's more comfortable to me.

I don't know why. It is. Hate actually humbles me more. Because I don't like to, I don't, yeah. There's a lot of attention. I love compliments. Don't get me wrong. I love it when people say nice things.

But I'd rather you say it behind my back. The realest thing said about you is when you're not around. Real. Yes. All right, we got more with Issa Rae when we come back. Please watch Insecure on HBO every Sunday at 10.30. It's the world's most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club. It's the world's most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club.

Season two or three, you're going to be like, all right, I can't just tweet with you. When did you stop acting regular? You still do the same thing.

I know, I know. He still be going back and forth. Listen, Charlamagne gets too upset about things. And you do too. I see you, like in your book, you analyze people's tweets. I saw you wrote about how you got upset because a stripper got mad at you. Yeah. What happened?

And I didn't even understand. I ain't read the book. I got to read the book, man. That's my on my to-do list this weekend. I was watching the Grammys, and I tweeted something where I was saying, oh, somebody was performing. If you were a stripper, you would come out to UNITY, and you would be a... And I would come out in a pantsuit. Yeah.

Because I can't remember. I think I said a respectable stripper. A respectable stripper. A respectable stripper, which in hindsight, okay, maybe I shouldn't have said that. But she was like, oh, how brave of you to come out not like all of us whores. And she just went in. And I didn't understand it at the time. I was like, I wasn't coming for you.

And then she went to her page and saw who she was and then said, listen, when you get to, because I guess she had said she was sleep deprived and couldn't sleep. Yeah. So I was trying to be empathetic. I was like, I went to her page and read her tweets, and she was like, you know, talking about how she hadn't gotten sleep. And so I was like, hey, we should talk about this when you get some sleep, grumpy and grumperson.

And she was like, we should talk about this when you get some empathy, you whorephobic ass. And then she blocked me. There's a thing called whorephobia? There's too many phobias. But wait, listen to this. It just is. So not only did she get black,

then she went to another page to go look at her tweets because she was black. You really was upset. You upset your stripper. I was just like, why does she do that? I didn't understand why. But I made her upset. And now, three years later, I'm like, okay.

I get why you were upset. And you had a right to be upset. Because I'm coming at your world, and I'm coming in a way from, like, speaking like I'm above it. But, of course, like, I don't like to upset people. Now I'm realizing, like, no matter what I do. You cannot please everybody ever in life. There's always going to be people that say rude stuff to you. If I go to everybody's page, sometimes I do just to be like, somebody's like, oh, you're so ugly

and then you go look at their page and you're like, your life's sick. All right now. I feel better. Don't y'all think y'all too accepting

as women though sometimes? No way. Because it's okay for growing up moms and grandmas to be like, yo, they don't want you

to be no script boy. They would tell you respect yourself. So what's wrong with you telling that to somebody now? Because that's, well, that's not my place, and there's an assumption there that

she doesn't have respect for herself. I have plenty of strippers and ex-strippers who are cool people, popping. Yeah, who just want to do that. And, like, there is a talent associated with stripping. Yeah, I do. I don't like strippers that don't have talent, though, because, no, but seriously,

there's some strippers that just, like, walk around. I like when they can do stuff, like, have tricks and dance. I don't like strippers that don't have goals. Seriously, like, you have to have a goal. Like, I have to be an end goal for stripping. Like, if you're going to be a stripper, be a great stripper. Same way you tell drug dealers you can't sell dope forever. You can't be a stripper forever.

Well, then there's, like, at least, like, promotions in drug dealing. Right. You can get to... You can aspire to... You don't want to be, like, the one on the cornerpin. You don't want to be like the one on the corner. You'd rather be the one that supplies the one on the corner. Right, right, right. That's real.

But like what is the, I guess what's the kingpin stripper level? There's no queenpin stripper. That's real. Because you're going to be the featured act. And you can also travel to other places. Oh, and like perform in Dubai or like for Saudi princes. You don't want to be like the Monday at 11 in the morning stripper. You'd rather be

Friday night, Saturday night featured when everyone comes or they're big, if they have a big night that night, you want to be the one that's there. But you can't still do it forever.

It's the same way when rappers come here and they over 40 and they still acting like thugs and street dudes. I'm like, bro. Yeah, you gotta elevate. Come on.

Right. So you just answered your own question. There is a level of respect that strippers have. How much of this show is based off your real life? I say that this character is like, you know, 80 to 90% me. If I didn't know what I wanted to do and if I made different decisions in life. And I think I'm a bit more empathetic than she is.

But for the most part, it's me. Well, that's awesome. And show me. I did tell him he has to read this book because I found it to be quite entertaining. And I actually know some people who work at the publishing company. They were saying on your tour that people were crying. Like she said, she almost cried just hearing

some people's stories because a lot of women, they don't get to see stories about people who are just regular, awkward, not, you know, had this glamorous life. And it is something that people can relate to. Which makes me happy because that's really like we're just trying to remind people that black people are human at the end of the day.

And we're not shunning the fact that we are black. Like that is very clear. Of course, we address racial issues, but I'm so tired of seeing shows where like race is the burden or like racism stops things. And I say like to me in the life sentence of being black, racism, for the most part, is the comma. We're so used to it, we're just like, I'm still going to go about my day.

I'm still going to pay these bills. I still got to deal with these relationships. Occasionally, you get a period or an exclamation point where you're like, hold up, okay. They have no white news. Did you just call me naked? Did you just call me naked? Nah, I got it.

But for the most part, we, that's just, we deal. That's how we want to address these issues in the show, and it's just a very, like, real way. True. We got more with Issa Rae when we come back. It's the world's most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club. Yep, it's the world's most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club. We're here with Issa Rae.

You can watch her every Sunday at 1030 on HBO with her show Insecure. I have a level of respect for you because you're so dope and you're smart, but my level just went up because you still have the tag on your coat. Oh, you want me to turn it? That's the type of person I am. I am that. You gave me this to wear for an appearance. I came to New York for this, but I do love this clothing company.

Shout out to Theory. Now, I wanted your opinion on this. You got it cute. These Spanish and these white hoes, they done start getting finer than a mother****. Y'all black hoes better tighten up. Y'all doing all that extra **** for nothing. You get your ass done, you get **** done,

and you're paying $150 to get your makeup done just to go to a mother****, a local club. These Spanish and these white hoes is getting very spiffy on y'all. They around learning how to fry chicken. This is useless. Let's see if this media train has been working. How you feel about that? I mean, I just want to know what

black woman listened to that and was like, oh, she's got to tighten up. Because trip daddy said so. Like, nope. So I'm just like, who is this message? Who listened to that and who did it get through to? Because I didn't listen to it and go, oh, well, he's spoken. He doesn't want me.

He doesn't want me. God dang it. I'm going to lose Trick Daddy. I gave Donkey the day to Trick, but I was actually, I was talking to women too. I'm like, well, how do y'all, it's Trick Daddy. He's going to say what he says. I don't agree. He loves the kids. But I also don't agree. He loves the kids.

But I also don't care. He loves the kids. He also loves the hoes. Right. And people constantly come for us. People constantly come for black women. And yes, I can understand the anger because it's like all the time people are coming for us. But he does not matter.

That's why you named the show Insecure, right? I think so. Yeah. I think that there's just multi-levels. Like, there's the insecurity of being black and the definitions of that. There's the insecurity of even being in the workplace, which we address, and having to juggle multiple identities. And, of course, in a universal way, like the relationships. I mean, just, I'm coming on the narrative

of, you know, like black women are constantly portrayed now, which is amazing, as flawless, fierce, like all these things, like magic. And I just remember just not feeling that way. There's a journey to get there, and that's kind of what we want to show. I call it the prequel or prelude to Black Girl Magic.

And we're going to watch these characters kind of find themselves. You know, as a man, it's something that I'm starting to just have empathy for because I didn't know black women felt that way. I'm dead serious. I grew up around strong black women. They were always the strongest people to me. So it's just like when I hear you say that,

I have conversations with people like Crystal, and I'm like, I didn't know y'all felt this way. I really did not know black women felt insecure and not worthy. I mean, because we don't really get the outlets to be able to just be vulnerable and be like, I keep going back to this word regular, but just we are regular people. We're just like any other woman. And I think a lot of the burden is placed on our shoulders, in a sense,

to be this strong person and to push through and to just ignore stupid niggas like Trick Daddy. And that's just unfair. It's interesting on InstaKill, you seem like you're just embracing adulthood, but you're 30. Like, women mature faster than men, right? Is that true? I don't know.

No, because it's hard because you're still at a point where, like, you know, a lot of women are 30, and they still aren't where they want to be in their career. They don't know exactly. It's a different day and age. It is, and I feel like you get a lot of women are 30 and they still aren't where they want to be in their career. They don't know exactly. It's a different day and age. It is, and I feel like you still get excuses when you're 20. People still say, like, oh, she's just 20-something. Like, let her slide.

But when you're 30, like, nobody's giving you excuses. Just like you just said, people are like, bitch, you're 30. Like, yeah, have it together. A lot of people don't. Yeah. You don't know what you're going to do with your career. Your man is still on the couch, not without a job. Am I going to marry him?

Do I need to break it off and move on and think about my future? It's that time. And I think you're still doing adult things in terms of paying bills and you're living on your own and you're in these relationships. But I still think you kind of come into yourself and are more nonsense or are absolutely positive who you are by the time you hit 30. Has Lena Dunham been supportive?

Lena Dunham's been extremely supportive. Yeah, absolutely. She's been supportive. She's been on the book, been a really nice person throughout this process and has gone above and beyond just since I've started. How do you feel when people were going in on her? Like the black feminists on Twitter

really went in on her a couple times? I mean, everybody's going to be the victim of internet outrage for sure. Not you. I will, I'm problematic. I say stupid stuff all the time. I feel like you can't escape ignorance. Like you can't.

I'm learning. Every now and then you mess up. And I think this culture doesn't allow for that. And that's what sucks about being in the public. People love to make jokes. And they love to bring it back up, too. Like, oh, you think you the shit now, but remember back in 2011, you said this. And you just have to be careful, which sucks.

But I'm going to fuck up. And the rules change. And the rules change every day. Like, I didn't know you couldn't call women females a year ago. Yeah. They went in on, like't call women females a year ago. Yeah, yeah. They went in, I'm like, calling women females

my whole life? I didn't know that either and then I heard, and then I found out and then I heard you say it and I was like, ooh, he said female. Did you correct him?

I didn't correct him but because it was during, was it during the Hillary Clinton? I don't remember. In summer he said it and I was like, ooh, you know, but I don't really understand

why we can't say it 100%. I don't really. No, I've never liked it, and I was like, ooh, you know. But I don't really understand why we can't say it 100%. I don't really. No, I've never liked it just because it's, every time I've heard it, it's been, but I would never be outraged about this. I'm not mad about it. But I always have heard it from other women, refer to other women as females. Like, I remember being in high school and meeting girls who were like, I don't have no female friends. I can't stand females. And so it's had a negative connotation to me since then because it just feels like it's like animalistic in some way.

You're relegating them to like, I don't f*** with the female species. But nothing else sounds right. I don't have no women friends. I don't have no girlfriends. That's not pretty. That sounded really nice. You're right. Listen, we could sound like this.

You got this clip? I love playing problematic stuff for you. I just got into a big debate with this female because I'm on speakerphone with my Nick, and he say, where the hoes at? And I'm like, there's a couple over here right now. She get mad, talking about, ain't no hoes over here. But I'm like, look, I wasn't calling y'all hoes individually.

The hoes is any group of females. I don't give a fuck if it's Oprah and Gayle, SWV. If it's Destiny's Child, if it's a group of hoes, it could be CeCe Winans and her sisters. If they together, they the hoes. Stop getting mad because we used the right term. Like, when a goose by itself, it's a goose. But when it's a bunch of gooses, them is geese.

So you think it's a goose out here mad as hell when they look at them geese and she's like, no, ain't no geese is over here, bitch. It's a little logic bitch. That's a little logic there. That's really, really stupid. That's so stupid. It's really, really stupid. But that's

his logic. That's his truth. It works for Charlamagne. That's stupid. I didn't understand that at all. I didn't get that at all. I mean, I like it because there's nothing more entertaining to me than that type of stuff. That is so... But yeah, he's functioning in life. Good for him.

I just pray HBO is giving you the support you need. They're giving me 100% support. All my LA friends have hit me like, Oh, I just seen a billboard. Yeah, definitely. I saw you on a bus. I just saw me on a bus this morning. It was my first time seeing me on a bus.

And I had a lot of people hitting me up about it too even before, yeah. And then it's good. The work speaks for itself at the end of the day. Like, it's a great show. Like, me and my wife, I don't do too much

appointment TV. Insecure every Sunday at 1030. Thank you guys for all of the love. Look, come anytime. Promote whatever you want to promote.

Absolutely. We appreciate it. We know by season two you might be over us, but you know. I'm a legit fan, y'all. Absolutely. We appreciate it. We know by season two you might be over us, but you know. I'm a legit fan, y'all. I watch all the interviews. Well, most of them.

You saw when he made Little Mama cry? I did not make Little Mama cry. That was six years ago. I did not do that. That was not one of my proudest moments.

Black women will not let me forget that. But it produced one of the greatest memes ever. That meme where she has the tears in her eyes is the best. See, that's why I think that's why it produced one of the greatest memes ever. That meme where she has the tears in her eyes is the best. See, that's why it's confusing.

No, no, no. I still don't think you should have gone. You were very... There's no confusion. It was like if lemonade was made just via that meme because it's so appropriate for so many things. I think I truly feel sorry now. At the time she came back, I still wasn't like, I don't feel like I did anything wrong.

But now I feel like I actually, I was like, no, that was, I was a little bit harsh. Yeah. We're growing. Yeah, I think that's part.

You're allowed to grow. I don't know if what it is. I got two daughters. I'm married. But I just think I really did not know black women felt the way they felt.

Right. And I even think about like my mom, right? My mom used to be in her room listening to Lauryn Hill, X Factor over and over. And I used to think like my mom, right? My mom used to be in her room listening to Lauryn Hill, X Factor over and over. And I used to think she just used to like the song.

But as I get older, I realize like, damn, my dad was really putting her through it. But she would never show us that. So I think that's one thing black women do. They don't show,

when they are down like that, they don't show it. So they're forced to always be strong. That's like the ultimate sad song when you break up to listen to it. Yeah. X Factor, it just says everything.

Even if you're not going through nothing. I know it makes me want to go through something sometimes. Somebody hurt me. As a man, we've been believing

the illusion all these years that black women are just indestructible, you know, unbeatable, but they go through it just like the rest of us. Yeah, because y'all put us through it sometimes

and you know you do. We're all human. I don't know. Black women are amazing. You sure? Play Trick Daddy clip again My hose is lit Okay

So I don't know if I show But no I do think that You know We just want to show them Being vulnerable And

Regular women Thank you Issa Rae Thank you for coming It's The Breakfast Club The Breakfast Club. It's about time. What's going on? Rumor Report. Rumor Report. This is the Rumor Report. Talk to them.

With Angela Yee on the Breakfast Club. Well, Rob Kardashian has allegedly been threatening someone, and this is a guy named Pilot Jones. Now, there were pictures of Pilot Jones and Blac Chyna kissing online, available. And allegedly, Rob Kardashian has been sending text messages to Pilot, Leave my wife alone. I'm not playing with you. They said more texts have been sent, and the cops have them, where he has threatened physical violence if pilot doesn't stay in his place well exactly what happened black china actually went online and responded on instagram to pilot jones now she

said let's state facts i've been quiet for too long so jc pilot jones whatever the f his name is has already tried to put out a story saying that he's the potential father of my child really n-word let me start off by saying this young man is gay. The only reason we took those pictures, and by those pictures, she means the pictures of her kissing him, was to, she said she was trying to be a good friend, and it was so he could send it to his boyfriend to make him jealous and say that he's going back to girls. She said, mind you, at the time, I thought this was my friend, and I didn't seem a problem with it. That's petty.

That ain't petty, Rob. You a damn fool if you believe that stupid, stupid-ass excuse. So you don't think he's gay, and he was trying to... Man, you know how dumb that sounds, G? That's a great excuse. I know you high and drunk over from last night, but that's dumb as hell. If my boyfriend ever sees a picture of me kissing another guy, I'm going to be like, listen, he's gay, okay?

Yeah, he's gay. I'm just doing that to make my boyfriend jealous and go back to girls. No. Now, she also said, or are you mad at the fact that I did my Chimoji app without you dumbass JC? Your greedy ass wanted to cut something that wasn't yours and you came at my lawyer asking for crazy money. You really mad

like you really stooped this low. Coming for a B that's due in a few days. Really trying to start beef with my fiance. You're an effing joke. You just played yourself. Rob, don't fall for that BS. Get a blood test when that baby comes, okay? Period. All right. It could not be yours, but

you better be safe than sorry, right? What would Kris Jenner say? I think she got a blood test and all that, didn't she? She hasn't had the baby yet. I think they can figure it out beforehand. I don't know if she's gotten a blood test. I don't think so. If they have, I'm sure we'll see it on their reality show. Did you say, what would Kris Jenner say? Yeah.

Yeah, Kris Jenner would say, why are y'all wasting this on social media? Let's get the cameras rolling. Right, exactly. All right, Vine is dead. RIP to Vine. Twitter has announced they're going to kill off Vine. And they acquired that app, actually, four years ago. They were trying to bring video to social networking.

They didn't give a real reason for it, but they said that there were some significant job cuts at Twitter because they're trying to be profitable right now. Never got to Vine anyway. You used to Vine. I did. You did early on. Not really. I never was really into it.

I tried to Vine. Actually, I just went and looked at my Vine after all of that happened, and I had some pretty funny Vines. So how can I save them? There was a lot of Vine stars, remember? People that were Vine stars. But I can see that now because I feel like a lot of people aren't on there.

They said Snapchat came along. And even Twitter's not popping like that after Snapchat and Instagram expanded their video offerings. Because visuals are better. People don't like to read. People don't even like to read when it's 100. People don't like to read, period. They used to like to read 140 characters. Now that's too much for them anymore.

So now they just need pictures. Now Vine even used to be in the top 100 free apps in Apple's App Store, and it just fell off. It's not even in the top 100 anymore. So I don't know. Yeah, things happen. All of this social media we love is going to play itself out one day. They're trying to say what's going to happen with Twitter next

if they're having problems like that and cutting jobs. But we still use Twitter a lot. Everybody definitely uses Twitter. That's because Twitter links to everything that we like. It still links to Instagram, links to Facebook. It's kind of like your core. Yes. Twitter's the core of everything and then you have Instagram, you have Facebook. Absolutely. Alright, I'm Angela Yee

and that's your rumor report. Alright, thank you, Miss Yee. Now, when we come back, Charlamagne, who you got that donkey for? I don't know yet. I'm still figuring it out. Okay. But somebody will come to the front of the congregation. We will have a word with them.

Okay. We'll get into that when we come back. Keep it locked. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Charlamagne, say the gang donkey under the shade, man. You are a donkey. It's time for Donkey of the Day.

Donkey of the Day does not discriminate. I might not have the song of the day, but I time for Donkey of the Day. Donkey of the Day does not discriminate. I might not have the song of the day, but I got the donkey of the day. So if you ever feel I need to be a donkey man, hit me with the heat. It's a breakfast club, bitch. Who's donkey of the day today? Yes, donkey of the day for Friday, October 28th, goes to a Texas A&M student named Miranda K. Rader. Now, Miranda was arrested on Wednesday night after authorities said she crashed her vehicle

into the back of a parked Bryan police car. Now, I know what you're thinking. How much alcohol did she drink? How much drugs did she consume? College student runs into the back of a parked police car. She must have been wasted. Now, back in the day, that was probably a sure bet. But in this era, people get high off something else other than drugs and liquor.

They get high off likes. They get high off retweets. They get high off all the comments left on Instagram and whatever other social media sites they're on. And Miranda K. Radar is no different because the reason she crashed into the back of the police car was because she was trying to send a Snapchat. Now, she wasn't just trying to send a Snapchat. She was trying to send a topless pic to her boyfriend via Snapchat, and she crashed the car around 8.30 p.m. As the officer approached the SUV,

he observed Miranda K. Radar with her bra unfastened, trying to put her shirt back on. She told the officer that she was driving back to her dorm on campus and had been sending Snapchat pictures to her boyfriend while stopped at a red light. Now, let the record show she did have an open bottle of wine in the car and she failed parts of a field sobriety test. But social media was probably the primary cause of this accident. OK, you're not supposed to drink and drive. But being on social media and driving is just as bad because you don't even have your eyes on the road. When you're

behind the wheel of a car, you should be focusing on one thing, and that's driving. Okay, it's impossible for that focus to be there if you're looking down at your phone or you're focused on taking a pic or video while driving to send to someone. Now, Miranda Kaye was charged with driving while intoxicated with an open container and ticketed for being a minor in possession of alcohol. But sadly, no charges were brought up for her Snapchatting and driving because I don't believe there's any laws against this.

I'm sure it should fall under the same class as texting, but it doesn't for whatever reason. Now, look, kids, it's never that serious. Fellas, if you really like your woman, tell her don't ever send me nudes while driving. If you want to see the Tatas, wait until she comes over the crib to see them. And ladies, it's never that serious

where you have to send a guy nude while driving. Relax, okay? You know how dumb you look dying because of Snapchat? If you get killed because of Snapchat, they need to put the Snapchat logo on your tombstone. In fact, if you die because of any kind of social media, they need to put whatever the social media logo is on your tombstone. Do you really want it to read, or here lies Twitter bird?

Or hair lies Instagram camera? There's no way in hell I'm dying over something that's probably just a fad anyway. Can you imagine dying over MySpace back in the day? Dying over Black Planet? Huh? That's how foolish you will look dying

over any of the social media sites that's out now. Smarten up, kids. Please give Miranda K. Radar the biggest hee-haw, please. Oh. Never mind. I was going to give her smooth sounds, but the biggest hee-haw was more appropriate. And the fact that she was on campus heading back to the dorm, couldn't you just wait until you got in your dorm to see her?

Five minutes. Not even five, maybe. Like, was it that pressing? I tell my friends that all the time. Like, you ain't got to do this right now. You don't have to do this right now, okay? The ta-tas ain't going nowhere, and neither is a man that wants to see the ta-tas.

Now, Angelique's friends crashed her car yesterday. It wasn't a crash. Who was trying to send a Snapchat to who? If it was L'Oreal driving, she might have been taking a selfie. Well, apparently they were at a red light and it was a lot of traffic and somebody tried to squeeze past and make a lane where there was no lane and scratched the side of the car up. They hurt the panda?

They hurt my little panda. My panda's bruised. Panda. And by the way, they did do a paternity test, apparently, on Rob and Chyna's show on the season finale. Just a correction from the rumor report. That's what I said. Yeah, I didn't watch it, so I didn't see it.

I didn't watch it. I just seen it on social media. So Rob's pregnant? Yes. No, correction from the rumor report. That's what I said. Yeah, I didn't watch it, so I didn't see it. I didn't watch it. I just seen it on social media. So Rob's pregnant. Yes. No, so it is his baby. Black China's the father. So he doesn't have to do another paternity test. Rob's expecting. Okay, now we know where the weight gain comes from. Okay. Alright, well, that was the donkey of the day.

Thank you, Charlamagne. When we come back, yesterday was Powerhouse NYC. We were backstage. We got to kick it with a bunch of artists, and we're going to get those back on. Young M.A. was one of them. I We were backstage. We got to kick it with a bunch of artists. And we're going to get those back on. Young M.A. was one of them. I missed that one. Okay, and then after that, I started drinking.

That was Fat Joe and Angelique. You missed that one. Well, I wasn't on schedule for that. No. You was at the bar. I was at the bar, but I also wasn't on schedule. You made it for Wiz Khalifa, though. You smelled that weed. You knew it would come to get some weed.

Yeah, one of them had me weak when it was. They said the police pulled me over because they thought I had a gun, but they mistaked

You know, but thank God we're trying to bring them lyrics back and hits. Shameless plug. I got my sneaker store opening up November 5th on 158th and Broadway. I'm inviting you guys.

Back to the sneaker store. The first time I met Fat Joe was in our sneaker store. No, no, but this is a different, you know, it's Big Fat Joe. Some people keep asking me, yo, what's up with your cribs, MTV cribs? I'm like, I could fit that in my crib now. Right. You understand? Like, you think about what Fat Joe did at, MTV cribs. I'm like, I could fit that shit in my crib now. Right. You understand? Like, you think about what Fat Joe did at MTV Cribs.

You could fit the crib you was living in in the shit you living in now. Right, absolutely. You! So what I'm saying is, you know, it's a big difference. You know, the store, it looked like the Hamptons in the middle of Washington Heights. Wow.

So when you walk in, that's how I want my people to feel, man. I want my people to feel empowered. I want them to feel like, yo, we got some super fly. We got all the stock. We got every sneaker nobody ever got, Jordan, last year. Back stock. Say if your back stock, say if your check came the next week and they all got them that week, you can't get them no more?

You got them. No. Now we got every pair. And we selling them face value. The price of the box. Really? Box price. We got joints that you could probably resell 10 minutes later for $1,500.

So you got a lot of money off all of this. We got everything. Wow. He made a lot of money off all of this. Hey, y'all stop. Hey, y'all stop. He's just giving them away now. Now, we gotta give it to the people. We gotta give it to the people, man.

what's the name of the album Plata O Plomo Plata O Plomo yeah man that's money or lag is Remy here or is she late she's late

she's late story of your life Joe story of your life goodness it's okay alright that was Fat Joe when we come back we got some rumors

on the way so don't go anywhere it's the Breakfast Club come on We'll be right back. We got some rumors on the way, so don't go anywhere. It's The Breakfast Club. Come on. Na, na, na, na, na, na. Got me up all night. All I'm singing is love songs. She got me.

Listen up. It's just in. All the gossip. Gossip. The Rumor Report. Gossip. Gossip. With Angela Yee.

It's The Rumor Report. The Breakfast Club. Now, there were some rumors that little mama doesn't like Nicki Minaj too much. She had posted a photo of Lil' Kim wearing a pink wig. Remember that? And she captioned it, like, Now, it seemed like people thought she was talking about Nicki Minaj. I don't know if you guys remember this.

And it seemed like something was going on between the two of them. Well. Never crossed my radar. Little mama spoke to the Jasmine brand. And she said, to be honest with you, I'm only responding to the things that are being said. And I feel like most people, they go with who they feel isn't supreme at the time. And they say, oh, no, she's doing this. She's doing that.

It's almost like being in class and somebody keep kicking your chair. And then you turn around and smack the ish out of them. And they're like, whoa, she's crazy. Why did this person start with me? They keep pushing me. And she said, well, I haven't seen a push yet. You know what I mean? So in other words, she's saying, it's easy for me to get out of my seat, push it back, and smack the ish out of the person that's kicking the back of my chair. But why do that when at the front of my class there's a black man being lynched or there's a black man being kicked down by our oppressor?

So she said, I feel like these women, Nicki Minaj, Lil' Kim, who else, many of them, they are all 6 to 10 to 20 years my senior. I have so much time and space to grow that even if someone else is ignorant, let them be because once you pass 28, 30, you begin to get set in your ways. She said, I can't teach older women how to be women. I can only teach the younger generation how to be women. I'm confused, though. Who's kicking the back of little mama's chair?

I guess she feels like she's being egged on. Oh, the beef with Nikki. Oh, the, like, beef with Nikki and them. Right. Oh, okay, okay. All right. That makes sense. And they just keep on kicking her chair.

But what she's saying is that there's bigger things going on in the world. She's right. And so she doesn't even want to focus on things like that. She's absolutely right. She said, I need to focus on making music and music that reflects that and the responsibility that she wants to take on. Right. All right. She said, I need to focus on making music and music that reflects that and the responsibility that she wants to take on. Right. Alright, so that's a positive message. Raven-Symoné

is leaving The View. Guess what she's doing? What? She's doing a That's So Raven spinoff. She's gonna reprise her role as Raven Baxter and she's already trying to get casting to find the actors who are gonna play her kids. Now, if I remember correctly on That's So Raven, she could see into the future?

She's psychic. Yeah, I would like for her to see into the future now and know that That's So Raven reboot is not going to work. Well, now she's a divorced mom with two tweens of her own. No. And one of them has inherited her ability to be psychic. No, Raven. What?

No, no, no. That is not a good idea. Nothing about that. So you're not here for it. Absolutely not. That's like when they did Boy Meets World again, and they had, like, the old Topanga with the dude name. I can't remember his name.

Like, it wasn't good. But what about they redid the one that had the twins on it, Full House? Trash. Another trash on there. Trash. Another trash on there. Trash. Like, no. I don't want to see that. No.

Sorry. What would you like them to bring back? You know what I would like? I don't know if you guys remember this show, but Out of This World, where she could freeze time. Blossom. No, it's called Out of This World. Let's bring back a different world.

A different world. I would like for them to bring back a different world with a new scene. They could have kept a different world going. They could have just been showcasing different black colleges. Absolutely. A different world should come back. Out of Time was trash, too. Y'all used to be a lot of trash TV.

Out of Time, I used to watch that, but it was trash. Alf, I used to watch that, but it was trash. Alf the Alien. Harry and the Hendersons. Y'all remember that when they did a TV show about Harry and the Hendersons? No. That was trash. Remember Dinosaurs on ABC?

That was trash. We really walking down memory lane right now. You watched a lot of TV, Sean. I did. You need to get out of the house. MacGyver. MacGyver was dope. MacGyver was trash, bro.

MacGyver was dope. Didn't they bring back A-Team? A-Team. When they brought that back, that was trash. You guys. That was my joint, though. Harsh critics. Quantum Leap.

Quantum Leap is still good. They should bring that back. That was dope. Because that was an ill concept. The concept was he could jump in and out of people's lives and help them fix their lives. That was dope. You know what, so you probably liked the X-Files. I didn't like X-Files.

Wasn't it about UFOs and stuff? I did. I didn't like it, though. It was one episode of X-Files that really scared me because it started off as an episode of cops. And I thought it was cops. And this cop ran into this house and there was an alien there. And I was like, whoa.

What the heck is wrong with you? All right, now, if you want to marry a billionaire, James Packer is single again. That is Mariah Carey's fiance, or he was her fiance. Now, first, the rumor was that he broke up with Mariah because she spends too much money. Her spending habits were outlandish. But now, according to Mariah's people, they are saying that she was the one that had to break things off because he had fluctuating moods and violent outbursts. And there was some incident that happened on a yacht with Mariah's assistant.

We don't know exactly what went down, but supposedly that's what it is. They haven't been together for over a month now. Matter of fact, she had that Halloween party and he wasn't there at all. So we'll see if they end up getting back together. But word on the street is it might be over for good this time. Okay. Alright, I'm Angela Yee and that's your rumor report.
