Taraji P. Henson’s behavior during a recent interview left viewers suspecting there have been tensions brewing between her and her “Fight Night: The Million Dollar Heist” castmates Samuel L. Jackson and Terrence Howard.

On September 6, Extra released a video clip of an interview with Henson, Jackson, Howard, Kevin Hart, and Don Cheadle in regards to the film “Fight Night.”

Additional correspondent Mona Kosar noted that Henson had worked with other actors on the show before, aside from Jackson.

While the lads talked about their shared experiences, Taraji remained silent.

“It’s always a collaborative space. It’s not a space where the actors aren’t talking and are trying to surprise you with some shit,” Jackson, 75, said as his colleagues nodded in agreement.

Henson and Howard played lead roles in the tv series Empire as Loretha “Cookie” Lyon and Lucious Lyon, respectively, from 2015 to 2020. They have also appeared within the movies Hustle & Flow, Four Brothers and Term Life.

He and Hart starred within the movies Not Easily Broken, Think Like a Man and its sequel.

Despite talk of unity and harmony, many social media users believed Henson was uncomfortable or annoyed. BFA Collective shared a clip of the conversation on Instagram.

A commenter wrote, “I’ve never seen Taraji have this much energy in an interview. I wonder what’s going on.” Another person added, “Taraji is withdrawn as an actress.”

Several people online speculated about a possible rift between Henson and Jackson. For example, one commented, “Taraji looks like she didn’t fuck Sam.”

However, the respondent wrote, “I said the same thing, but she looks annoyed when Terrence talks.” A like-minded person assumed, “I think it’s Terrence.”

In an interview with Extra, Kosar brought up photos of Howard’s hair from the film “Fight Night,” which went viral in April 2024. The query in regards to the wardrobe from the film led to Henson teasing Howard and Jackson.

“The one thing Terrence is going to compete with you on is hair,” the Oscar-nominated actress said. Henson turned to Jackson and said, “I wonder where he got that. … I’d like to see your wig closet,” and then laughed.

When asked about reuniting with Howard for Fight Night after their previous projects together, Henson replied, “It was very different because we didn’t have many scenes together. I barely saw him.”

Howard also claimed that they mostly kept their distance from one another during filming because their characters had “totally different natures,” which affected their real-life relationship. He said he desired to hug Henson when he saw her on set, but decided against it.

Jackson recalled that Henson didn’t interact with Howard until the top of filming: “And one time they took you down to the basement and everyone was there. But you didn’t look at anyone that day.”

Henson checked out Howard and said bluntly, “I really had to pretend your butt wasn’t there.”

Despite the apparent awkwardness, a YouTube commenter found the solid’s interactions in the course of the interview to be light-hearted, writing, “I love the chemistry… it’s like a black family reunion in the backyard.”

Peacock’s Fight Night: The Million Dollar Heist premiered on the streaming service on September 5. The final episode of the Shaye Ogbonna-created limited series will air on October 10.

Actress Tisha Campbell faced a wave of backlash while celebrating her son’s fifteenth birthday regarding her influence on the ending of the series Martin.

On September 11, the “Little Shop of Horrors” actress, who has two sons, Xen and Ezekiel “Zeke” Martin, and Duane Martin, took to Instagram to have fun her son’s birthday.

Campbell posted a video of Zeke along with his hair down and in braids, days after his original birthday date of September 8. signatureed clip, “My baby is 15!!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY ZEKE! Mommy loves you so much!”

While many fans joined in on the celebration for Zeke (and commented on his mature appearance), one person took the chance to criticize Campbell. In addition to the birthday wishes, some commenters identified Zeke’s resemblance to his father, Duane Martin.

“Happy birthday, you look just like your dad,” one person commented, while one other added, “Definitely Duane’s face. Happy birthday, young king.”

“Hair and mustache!!!” said another person.

However, the celebrations took an unpleasant turn when one person expressed displeasure on the “Martin” show being taken off the air.

“Your mother falsely accused Martin Lawrence,” they wrote.

Martin aired on Fox for five seasons until its end in 1997 following Campbell’s sexual harassment lawsuit against Martin Lawrence.

She claimed that the Maryland resident inappropriately touched her during love scenes while filming the series and repeatedly made unwanted sexual advances on her. Campbell also claimed that Lawrence was verbally abusive towards her and the remaining of the solid, accusing him of “repeated and escalating sexual harassment, sexual assault, verbal abuse, and related threats.”

Lawrence vehemently denied the accusations and the case was eventually settled out of court.

Despite the legal battle, Campbell and Lawrence reconciled with the surviving solid years later and reunited in 2022 to have fun Martin’s thirtieth anniversary.

IN interview on People that very same 12 months, Campbell said, “I wasn’t nervous about meeting the cast because we’re still friends,” referring to their bond even after 25 years and the death of castmate Thomas Michael Ford.

Lawrence echoed these sentiments, stating, “It’s nothing but love between me and her. It’s nothing but love.”

Although they managed to resolve their differences, they’ve not worked together professionally since then.

But each spent the summer performing stand-up. Lawrence toured with comedians like Adele Givens, B. Simone, DC Youngfly, Desi Banks, Loni Love, and more on the Y’all Know What It Is! tour. In between, Campbell played a handful of shows with Finesse Mitchell.

MAGA fan Hulk Hogan continues to find himself at the middle of controversy after threatening to throw Kamala Harris to the bottom while promoting his latest enterprise, Real American Beer, and campaigning for former President Donald J. Trump.

Once a towering figure on the planet of skilled wrestling, Hogan, whose real name is Terry Gene Bollea, is not any stranger to public criticism. But he can have been shocked when someone crossed his path and mocked him for his cartoonish behavior and conservative politics for the second time in as many weeks.

His latest encounter took place in Medford, Massachusetts, where comedian Robby Roadsteamer accosted the previous WWE star for the second time.

The comedian, dressed as a bear, sang a remixed version of Hogan’s song “Real American,” replacing the lyrics with a song that poked fun at Trump and his political beliefs.

Roadsteamer posted a video of the encounter on his X profile. He began, “I met Hulk Hogan (again!). I dressed up as a bear and sang his own theme song to him (again!) with lyrics about MAGA, Trump, and immigrants eating cats!! Then the cops and his henchmen took me away (again!) Get creative fam… Here comes the big blue wave #TrumpIsACowardlyWeirdo #MAGAIsWeird #HulkHogan.”

While the retired wrestler, who rose to fame within the Eighties as WWE’s hottest wrestler, stood and posed in front of an AI-generated poster of his own muscles and far younger face, the comedian debuted his own remix.

“Trump is the real criminal,” he sang. “He thinks immigrants eat cats. Trump is the real criminal. Fight for the alt-right. Fight our alt-right.”

As he was led away by security, he shouted, “Did you miss me? No political violence. No political violence here. I feel strong about martial law.”

Fans began to chime in and criticize Trump.

“I used to think Hogan was cool until Trump came along. He needs to go back to selling unlicensed games,” one person said he tweeted.

“I wonder if he knows or cares how many black fans he had,” one other said. he said“When I used to be a child I loved Hulk Hogan, as did all my peers, but he rejected his heritage.

Third person he wrote“The characters even appear in plush costumes.”

Someone else he said“@RobbyRoadsteame had the nerve to diss racist MAGA supporter Terry “Hulk Hogan” Bollea oh… and yet one more thing.”

This isn’t the primary time the “Rocky III” star has been streamed by Roadsteamer. Just a couple of weeks earlier, in August, the social media star appeared with the wrestler during one other promotional event.

This time, Roadsteamer donned a “MAGA Powers” T-shirt and asked, “Whatcha gonna do when we drop the big boot on the trans and everything. Does it work, bro?”

Hogan, a loud and proud Trump supporter who spoke at the Republican National Convention, still makes headlines promoting his beer and campaigning for the fact star-turned-politician. The athlete’s comments remind people of his bigoted past and why so many fans have given up their yellow T-shirts and red bandanas.

A very egregious incident occurred on August 19 at a bar in Medina, Ohio, when Hogan grabbed a microphone and launched right into a tirade about Vice President Kamala Harris.

According to a video recorded by witnesses, while intoxicated and egged on by the well-wishers, Hogan made racially offensive comments to Harris, mockingly asking if she was an “Indian.”

He even threatened to “body-throw” her, comparing his wrestler persona to political violence.

The tirade didn’t go unnoticed. When the video hit the web, it quickly went viral, with TMZ posting the video.

The critical response was immediate, with many individuals once again starting to query Hogan’s character and his standing within the entertainment industry.

Among those that responded was filmmaker Todd Phillips, who was working on a biopic about Hogan’s life starring Chris Hemsworth. The Hollywood executive announced the project had been shelved due to his actions.

“I like what we were trying to do, but it’s not going to work for me,” Phillips told Variety.

Hogan’s history of racist behavior is well-documented. In 2015, WWE severed all ties with the previous wrestling icon after a leaked audio recording revealed he had repeatedly used the N-word in reference to his daughter’s relationships. The brand, despite its long history with the star, removed him from its Hall of Fame and removed his name from its platform.

Although Hogan later apologized and was reinstated by WWE in 2018, his public image suffered significantly, and he never fully recovered from it.

As Hogan continues his promotional tour and campaigns for Trump, the incidents function a stark reminder of how his beliefs impact his legacy.
