In a resurfaced interview, #TorreiHart , sat down with Osei the Dark Secret and Claudia Jordan on The Culture Club. She reflected on her marriage with her ex-husband comedian #Kevin Hart and her sacrifices for her family.
She admits to marrying young and sacrificing her career for her ex-husband and children. “I got married young, so I feel like my 20s … I was robbed of my 20s and so I’m kind of living my life reversed,” she explained. “I’m doing a lot of things now that I wish I would have done when I was younger because I sacrificed for my ex-husband then I had kids. I sacrificed for my kids, so now is my time.”
Despite being proposed to twice since her divorce, Torrei doubts she will marry again, focusing on living life for herself now.
The North Philly comedian explains how her career got better when she demanded that he stop putting her in his jokes. “None of that money is coming to me anymore, [so]stop putting me in the jokes”, she said.
The couple’s blended family seems to have found peace, but Torrei enjoys her independence and newfound opportunities.

Recently, #KendrickLamar dropped the video from #NotLikeUs , which has many shots directed at #Drake
The official video for “Not Like Us” has finally arrived. The visuals are just about everything you’d expect from a Kendrick Lamar diss record-turned-summer anthem.
People believe Drake is stressed out following the release of the video. He was partying with a lot of A-listers at Michael Rubin's 4th of July party, and a picture of Drake with Michael Rubin has fans wondering if Drake is stressed out from the battle.
One fan said, "Drake aged like 20 years since the beef." Another added, "Drake look like he been through the ringer."
One fan continued, "Is it me or buddy looking stressed out [crying face emoji]."
With several celebrity cameos from #DeMarDeRozan to Lamar's wife #WhitneyAlford DeMar DeRozan is getting directly involved in the Drake-Kendrick beef, appearing in the music video for Kendrick Lamar's "Not Like Us".
"I'm glad DeRoz' came home, y'all didn't deserve him neither." - a shot at Toronto native Drake and DeRozan's time with the Raptors. DeRozan played for the Bulls last season and is currently a free agent.
It's a creative way filled with black-and-white shots, symbolic images, and people losing their minds to what may very well be the biggest rap record of 2024.

Released on June 27th, #Supacell by Rapman has become a #Netflix global win, in the Top 10 internationally. Currently number two in the U.S., this Drama/Sci-fi lands a perfect score with #RottenTomatoes
Fans worldwide binge-watched this six-episode series and are demanding a season two. This South London-based sci-fi takes you on a ride where five black Londoners discover their superpowers. Starring #TosinCole as Michael, #NadineMills as Sabrina, #EricKofiAbrefa as Andre, #CalvinDemba as Rodney, #JoshTedeku as Tazer.
It's suspense, action, and great storyline delivered by directors #Rapman and #SebastianThiel is bringing viewers together mesmerized and craving more.
Creator Rapman expressed to #Unilad, "I've told Netflix loads of times that I've got plans for multiple seasons. But you know how it goes, they're gonna see how it does, and hopefully we get the next season."
He added, “But I told them, I've got a three-season idea story in my head. So, I got three, not saying it could never go over, but I've got three stories, these three seasons in my head, of where I know where the story goes."
In my opinion, the U.S. doesn't surprise me, with the number two ranking for such a phenomenal show. How is it that such a successful show globally is playing tug-a-war with a horror docuseries about people not doing background checks or a documentary of a weird man taking advantage of the fertility system?
Supacell is giving power and facing the reality of black people and our treatment in the world with a fresh take. Allowing those who sometimes feel powerless to reveal their true abilities.

AP News reported that the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that cities can enforce bans on homeless people sleeping outdoors.
The 6-3 decision overturns a lower-court ruling that said such bans were "cruel and unusual punishment". Critics say the bans will only make the homeless crisis worse, while others say it will make it harder for cities to manage outdoor encampments.
It is a sad reality that an estimated 650,000 people are homeless in the U.S., up 12% from last year. “Sleep is a biological necessity, not a crime”, said, Justice Sonia Sotomayor. She added, “Homelessness is a reality for so many Americans.”
“We are disappointed that a majority of the court has decided that our Constitution allows a city to punish its homeless residents simply for sleeping outside with a blanket to survive the cold when there is nowhere else for them to go,” said Ed Johnson, director of litigation at the Oregon Law Center.
