Comedian Gary Owen participated in an episode of “Wife Swap” with actor Michael Ealy, and let’s say, hazel-eyed Ealy might have stolen the attention of Owen’s forever bride.
Owen posted a photo to Instagram hilariously capturing the moment Ealy stole the attention of Gary’s wife, Kenya. In the flick, Kenya can be seen cuddling up to Ealy’s wife, Khatira, looked jokingly less than enthused.
“Not sure why me & @trulykenya agreed to go on wife swap with @themichaelealy & his wife. Clearly Mikes wife isn’t feeling me but my wife is in a fucking trance. #WifeSwap #IHateThatShow#GetSome.”
The couples spent a week in Hawaii where they lived lives as the other person’s spouse. From the looks of these photos, it seems like Kenya spent her week swooning over Ealy–while Ealy’s wife was ready to get home to her own man.
Owen followed up his first Instagram post with another, saying that his wife has been “very quiet” since returning home.
“Hawaii was fun. Spent a week with @lifeandbread on wife swap. Had to return her to @themichaelealy last night. She seemed a little too happy to be back. My wife on the other hand has been very quiet since she came back. #WifeSwap #DoinWhatIDo #GetSome”
It’s clearly all jokes, given the fact that Owen and Kenya have been married since 2003. They have three kids.

If you watched the latest season of Love and Hip Hop Hollywood (and I know you did because Apryl and Fizz were on it), then you probably know who Brittany B (short for Barber) is. The Grammy-nominated songwriter, A&R and singer spent most of Season 6 trying to get people to put respect on her name not only musically (that in particular), but also when it came to her body.
The 32-year-old is stacked and comfortable in her own skin. However, some of her LHHH co-stars, the ones she bumped heads with (Lyrica Anderson, Zell Swag and Paris), as well as people who weren’t fans online, often took shots at her figure and looks, saying she got too much work done. Nevertheless, Brittany started the new year by letting people know that her body is her own and that, lately, she’s been working hard to get in the best shape of her life. She showed off her curvaceous figure and shared the message to followers that health is wealth.
“This post is for motivational purposes,” she wrote. “A lot of you just started following me this year. But for those of you who have been rockin with me for awhile thanks for being apart of the journey. Health has become a huge part of my life this last quarter and I’m super excited to get more active in the fitness/health world. Yes, some women get surgery and some women work out. I applaud them both because regardless of the method they decided to make a change for themselves for the better. As long as you’re happy with yourself & love yourself that’s all that matters.”
“One of my resolutions is to get in the best physical shape possible this year. (While dropping amazing music & visuals),” she added. “You can do ANYTHING you put your mind to! The word for 2020 is EXECUTION. INVEST IN YOURSELF ALL 2020.”

You can do ANYTHING you put your mind to! 
The word for 2020 is EXECUTION. 
INVEST IN YOURSELF ALL 2020You’re probably thinking, where exactly did she say that her body is natural? Well, she answered questions from followers who asked her if she had work done and either said no, or responded to their questions with sarcasm.
When one young lady asked her if her stomach was the product of, say a tummy tuck, she shut that down.
“This is my real stomach. My original belly button from when I was born,” she said. “I’ve also had my navel pierced since I was 16. ( I was a rebel) . So.. same stomach boo.”
When another young lady asked her straight away, “So are you saying your body is real?” she joked, “Nah I got it off amazon prime.”
The beauty also hit her fans and follower’s DMs with fitness and food tips and encouraged everyone looking to make a change to start off by eating better.
Brittany has handled a lot the negative commentary about her figure by keeping her cool and staying confident. She shared back in August while doing a roundtable conversation with rappers Trina and Kashdoll that she’s all about body positivity.
“I’m brown skinned, I’m thick, I’m a 1x,” she said. “I’m a plus-sized girl and I’m still here. I’m still grinding, I’m still doing what I’m doing and it hasn’t stopped me from being able to sell any music or move up in the music industry.”
To get it out the way: Cats is the worst film of 2019. The bizarre musical-turned-movie is a lucid fever dream from start to head-scratching finish, but what’s most striking — among many striking things — is the breakneck pace of a movie without a plot. The story, for those generous enough to grant it the label, follows the lives of a clan of stray cats who are meant to choose a sort-of Chosen One, a special cat to be honored. The journey to choosing that cat includes an evil cat named Macavity (Idris Elba), a queen-like cat named Old Deuteronomy (Judi Dench), and a world of dozens of other cats, many of whom make one-scene cameos for songs ranging from self-deprecating fat-joke feline James Corben to furry thirst trap Taylor Swift.
The world of Cats is discovered through the eyes of Victoria (Francesca Hayward) as a new stray who is seeing the world for the first time. What doesn’t make sense — granted, none of this makes sense — is Victoria’s wide-eyed newness the lives and culture of her entire species given that other cats like Jennyanydots (played by a cringingly terrible Rebel Wilson performance) are indoor cats who aren’t seeing the world for the first time. Victoria is the only cat so bewildered, precisely to explain to the audience a world that actually doesn’t need much explanation.
What does need explanation is how such a remarkably bad concept and script made through greenlighting, production, and editing with a cast of A-list stars who seem to forfeit a bit of their dignity for the paycheck or who truly believed in the potential of this film. By now, to viewers, Cats can be understood best as Hollywood’s version of shooting the moon in a game of Hearts, making a movie so bad that it’s a must-see to be believed. If successful, it would make millions of dollars in profit not despite being bad, but precisely because of it; if unsuccessful, Universal could expect to lose something north of 50 million dollars when considering production and marketing costs.
It’s the only way to satisfyingly explain Idris Elba, who inexplicably teleports from every scene with a Nightcrawler bamf; or Jennifer Hudson’s perpetual snot vying for its own Oscar; or Jason Derullo’s horribly unnecessary British accent (just be an American cat!); or Rebel Wilson’s “don’t get cocky” quips to anthropomorphic dancing cockroaches. Between the cringe-laughs and horrors it’s hard not to yell at the screen, “You’re better than this!” to every renowned actor onscreen. Seeing Jennifer Hudson’s snot continue to glisten over her lips, refusing to be wiped away, made me Google, “Can you lose an Oscar?” I feared the punishment in retaliation for everyone in this film, at the same time feeling it would all be deserved.
Some of the freakiest moments came from Cats breaking the third wall, its digitally-enhanced characters being not enough human to be humans and not enough cat to be cats, looking directly into the camera as the biomechanics version of the uncanny valley. They give Cats brief moments of horror in between its weirdness that makes your skeleton itch. The entire cast trying to evoke genuine emotion and connection with an audience is truly embarrassing. Enough to make your favorite pun enthusiast blush, Cats keeps a steady pace of cat-related one-liners like “cat got your tongue,” “don’t mess with the crazy cat lady,” “look what the cat dragged in,” and “catcalls.” The result is an accidental cringe humor, like an ensemble cast of 30 Michael Scotts, without a hint of self-awareness of their embarrassment.
In the end is Idris Elba and Taylor Swift — another of the countless random, ineffable character introductions — creating a furries-and-musicals PornHub channel and making the audience play unwilling cucks to their abomination. The cherry atop the strange creation that is Cats is Judi Dench breaking the third wall one final time, singing to the audience while cooing with our newly-initiated Victoria, as the audience discovers that becoming the chosen cat essentially means being euthanized as you’re hurled into the sun. In total, Cats is a non-stop musical action that is completely exhausting, the musical theater cinematic equivalent of Michael Bay’s Transformers, if only it made less sense. You will leave the theater changed. You will leave the theater fatigued and confused. Watch if you want the challenge of enduring one of the weirdest movies of all time. Watch if you dare.
