DJ Khaled moves to trademark son’s name

‘Wild Thoughts’ hitmaker DJ Khaled has applied to trademark his baby son’s name. The record producer and his wife Nicole Tuck welcomed baby Aalam into the world on January 20, and just two days later, submitted paperwork through Florida-based company ATK Entertainment in order to use it in branding.

According to TMZ, if the application is approved, the tot’s name can be used on products including children’s books, tote bags, clothing, sporting goods, cosmetics, fragrances, skin creams, baby products, CDs, DVDs, jewellery and watches.

The move is unlikely to come as a surprise to fans as the couple trademarked the name of their older son Asahd, now three, when he was 18 months old.

Rihanna said to be dating rapper

Rihanna is reportedly dating A$AP Rocky. The ‘Diamonds’ hitmaker has only just split from her billionaire boyfriend Hassan Jameel, but it seems she’s taking advantage of her new single status as she and the 31-year-old rapper shared a hotel suite in New York earlier this month.

A source told The Sun newspaper’s Bizarre column: “They shared a hotel suite during that trip in New York.

“However, Rihanna is reluctant to put a label on it as it’s so soon after Hassan.

“They’re really enjoying each other’s company and taking things easy as it’s still early days. It’s really casual between them and she’s not thinking about whether there’s a future with Rocky. She’s a newly-single girl having fun.”

The ‘Work’ singer and Hassan, both 31, were first linked together in June 2017, but after almost three years of dating, they’ve decided to call time on their romance.

Rihanna previously opened up on her romance with Hassan in a June 2019 interview, when she was asked if she was in love with her beau, to which she replied: “Of course.”

The ‘Umbrella’ hitmaker also revealed her relationship was going “really well”.

She added: “Yeah, I’m dating. I’m actually in an exclusive relationship for quite some time, and it’s going really well, so I’m happy.”

Blac Chyna hits out at Kylie Jenner

Blac Chyna was “distraught” when she found out that Kylie Jenner had taken her daughter on the same helicopter that Kobe Bryant died in last weekend.

The 31-year-old model has hit out at the ‘ Keeping Up With the Kardashians’ star for taking three-year-old Dream, whom she has with her ex-partner Rob Kardashian, on the aircraft – which crashed last weekend, killing the basketball player, his daughter and seven others – without her permission back in November.

The reality TV star released a statement via her lawyer Lynne Ciana in which she said: “Chyna has become aware that Kylie Jenner is using the tragic deaths of Kobe Bryant, his beautiful daughter, and seven other precious souls to profess her ‘distress’ that she and Dream had ridden on the same helicopter with the same pilot before Sunday’s horrific crash.

“No parents should find out after the fact that their child has participated in a dangerous activity without their permission. Chyna was distraught to learn that Kylie had taken Dream on that helicopter ride in November 2019. Chyna voiced her strong objections to Rob [Kardashian] and insisted that it never happen again.”

Chyna’s statement came after the 22-year-old make-up mogul took to her Instagram account to share images of the nine passengers who lost their lives.

Kylie – not mentioning her niece – wrote: “still can’t believe this. that was the helicopter I would fly on from time to time with that pilot, Ara. he was such a nice man. hold your loves ones close [heart emoji] (sic)”
