Tyga is facing ANOTHER lawsuit over his "Make It Nasty" video.  Get the deets on the latest lawsuit inside and watch a preview of Kanye West's upcoming BBC Radio 1 interview.....

 

In the saga of Tyga's troubled "Make It Nasty" video shoot, a fourth woman has stepped forth with a sexual harassment lawsuit.  You'll recall that three vixens have already sued, and now a fourth woman claims she was plied with alcohol (note: she was under the legal drinking age) and was sexually harassed by a man in a rabbit suit.  Yes....a "rabbit" suit.

In addition to getting dry humped by a rabbit, Allison Brown, says a man grabbed her breast and she was "coerced" to remove her top. She's suing Tyga for sexual battery, fraud, invasion of privacy, and infliction of emotional distress.  Did you know these video shoots were so stressful?

In other Tyga news, he and his baby mama Blac Chyna have been making the dinner rounds with Kanye West and Kim Kardashian. Check out their double date last night here.

 

And speaking of Kanye:

 

In an upcoming interview with BBC Radio 1, Kanye West goes on and on and on about his perfections.  What perfections?  As if you didn't know....the Dark Fantasy album was PERFECT.  Also......he is the biggest rock star in the world.  All this according to 'Ye.  Take a moment to look into his eyes and you will see that he truly believes everything he's saying.  The interview airs Monday at 7pm (check back for the upload).  The preview is above.

 

The Randomness:

1.  Taye Diggs joins the cast of "New Girl". Story.

Drake revealed all--kinda--about the celeb chicks he's been rumored to have had some type of relationship with.  So Ellen Degeneres played her tamer version of "Smash Or Pass" with the rapper on today's episode of her talk show.  Check it inside, plus the drama with Rihanna's "Pour It Up" video...
 

Wondering who Drake really smashed in Hollywood?  Well he gave folks the tame version of his black ook today on "Ellen."

If you can't sit through the vid, here's what he revealed:

Rihanna--They had their moment and he will always have love for her.

Nicki Minaj-- Loves her with all his heart but never had an intimate moment.

Tyra Banks--Went on one date to Disneyland...in disguise.

Kim Kardashian--"No, no, no. Come on now!"

Kat Dennings (of "2 Broke Girls")--I've always had a huge crush on her so she obliged me with a dinner date.

In other music news, Rihanna is having more issues with releasing her "Pour It Up" visuals.  The strip club/any club anthem seemed to be getting the raunchy treatment via IG pics Rihanna and her bestie Melissa posted a while back from the set.  But the director, Vince Haycock, apparently isn't having it.

He tweeted the understandably impatient Navy the other day:

"Rihanna fans, I’m no longer involved in the #pouritup video.  I took my name off the project due to creative differences. #stopharassingme"

And y'all already know RiRi responded.

"@vincehaycock luckily none of that matters, just take your name off the check while u at it! Whatever your issue is leave my fans out of it. #butthurtniggaAlert,"

Bloop.  We also heard a while back that Melissa would be involved in directing as well.  We guess maybe that didn't go over so well...

Ri just wrapped shooting a new video, for "What Now", in the Philippines.

TROUBLE IN PARADISE: Daniel "Boobie" Gibson CONFIRMS He & Wife Keyshia Cole Are On The Rocks

Posted: 20 Sep 2013 10:37 AM PDT

Cleveland Cavs baller Daniel "Boobie" Gibson confirmed on Twitter that he and wife Keyshia Cole aren't on the best of terms, after the twosome were caught sending subliminal "beef" messages toward each other on IG.  Hear what he has to say inside.....

 

Although R&B singer Keyshia Cole made amends with Michelle Williams on Twitter, it looks like her next Twitter beef might be with her own husband!  

Earlier this week Keyshia tweeted a pic about her feelings being cut on, and said, "Sometimes u can get pushed to your limit."

Boobie tweeted a pic that said, "If you could start over with one person in the world, who would it be?  What would you do different?"

Folks caught on and starting asking if they were on the rocks.

Daniel (shown above in a recent Instagram pic captioned "Home is where my Heart is") just confirmed that the couple is going through a rough patch.

During the tweets, Daniel also confirmed that a certain "site" is spreading rumors that he has cheated on KC.  We're not sure if the cheating rumors are the biggest issues between the couple, but clearly, there's trouble in paradise.

Over on her Timeline, KC addressed the marital discord by retweeting all of Daniel's tweets and also added a "SMDH" retweet at a fan who hoped for the end of her relationship.

Of course, fans always joke that singers like Mary J. Blige and Keyshia Cole make great music when they're in pain, but isn't it a little shady to "hope" for someone's to break up? 

Yet and still, not many would be surprised if a split did occur after watching Keyshia's interaction with her husband on their recent BET reality show.
