Since 2017, supporters have followed FunnyMike and Jaliyah Anderson’s on-and-off relationship journey. From engagements and arguments to breakups and reconciliations, the couple has shared many highs and lows publicly. Recently, things took a turn after Jaliyah accused FunnyMike of assaulting her in front of their children. Since then, supporters have been trying to figure out what led to the situation. FunnyMike later took to social media to share his side of the story. However, Jaliyah doesn’t appear to agree with how he’s handling things. Now, she’s speaking out with a new message as she opens up about entering a new chapter in her life.

Jaliyah Talks About Breaking Unhealthy Cycles And How Her Children Inspired Her Decision To Walk Away

Jaliyah took to her Instagram Story to respond after FunnyMike denied claims that he reportedly has two children on the way. The YouTuber also appeared to joke about the situation by sharing an AI-generated post, sparking reactions across social media.

In her message, Jaliyah seemingly reacted to FunnyMike’s post. She explained that her decision to end their relationship is not rooted in anger, but in doing what’s best for their children. Jaliyah also shared that she’s focused on helping them navigate the situation after alleging that she was assaulted in front of them.

The influencer wrote,“While people on here are laughing at his narcissistic behavior and turning a serious situation into a joke, I’m the parent left picking up the pieces and answering the hard questions from my children. What happened isn’t funny when kids are involved. My children didn’t deserve to witness the things they witnessed, and they definitely don’t deserve to carry the confusion, fear, and hurt that comes after.

My focus is, and always will be, protecting my kids, loving them through this, and showing them that unhealthy behavior should never be normalized.

And yes, because of that, after 8½ years, I am finally leaving. Not out of anger, but out of love for my children and the example I want to set for them moving forward.

I have a responsibility to protect their hearts, their peace, and the way they learn what love is supposed to look like. If leaving means giving them a safer, healthier, and happier future, then that’s a choice I’ll make every single time. My children deserve peace and I so do I!”

FunnyMike Appears To Address The Ongoing Situation In A Final Instagram Story Post

Amid Jaliyah’s recent post, FunnyMike took to his Instagram Story with what appeared to be a response to the ongoing conversation surrounding the allegations.

In the video, he stated, “Y’all can paint me however y’all want to paint me. I told y’all I’m going to take every lick. Aye! Some people ain’t no saints though, dawg. Y’all always seen my vlogs, but y’all don’t know the half. Imma leave it at that.”

Social Media Reacts

Many gathered under The Shade Room Teens’ post to react to Jaliyah and FunnyMike’s messages. Supporters quickly shared mixed opinions and debated whose side they believed. While some supported Jaliyah, others felt there was more to the story. Some commenters even argued that, like always, the pair may eventually get back together.

Instagram user @neasynee_ wrote, “Leave and don’t go back. I mean even if it hurts you, it ain’t worth traumatizing your children. As a mother we have people’s childhood in our hands. Praying for peace 🙏🏽 “

Instagram user @tykiasha_ added, “I’ll never fault a women for finally wanting to leave, that’s her decision whether she stays or not. Some leave quicker than others, we all different. So don’t be too quick to laugh honey…. 👀 🤷🏾‍♀️ “

While Instagram user @trebe.vibin wrote, “We on yo side mike 😂”

Instagram user wrote @impossible2pullout wrote, “Single him look better ngl. Now he just gotta stop talking on the internet & he’ll be good”

Instagram user @therealjaesymone added, “But wait, why does he seem lowkey geeked that she’s finally leaving 😭😭 Ikinda feel  like he been ready for her to go.”

While Instagram user @booomoini wote, “Yall so weirdo in the comments G, it’s obvious he think ts a game”

Instagram user wrote @gabby.leola wrote, “I just hope she really stand on business for the KIDS”

Instagram user @raunchyrae added, “I hope the kiddos are ok. Yall are forgetting he beat her in front of them. He lost all my respect.”

While Instagram user @oneeeofakindddd wrote, “The women in this comment blaming her for speaking up yall are disgusting and karma is real choose yall words wisely it doesn’t excuse what happened to her nobody is supposed to be putting they hands on a woman period specially not the mother of they child……”

Roommates, when it comes to Dame Dash and Jay-Z, it seems there’s always a new chapter in their never-ending saga. While some former business partners keep things cordial from a distance, Dame apparently had a few thoughts he just couldn’t keep to himself this week. From critiquing Jay-Z’s recent performance to offering up an unexpected review of what he claims the rapper’s breath smelled like back in the day, the Roc-A-Fella co-founder put Jay’s name — and allegedly his mouth — back in the conversation once again, and social media is already sounding off.

RELATED: Clapback Season! Dame Dash Reacts After Jay-Z Seemingly Calls Him Out In Viral Roots Picnic Freestyle (PHOTO)

Dame Explains Why Jay-Z Had Him Embarrassed

During a recent conversation with The Art of Dialogue, Damon Dash shared his reaction to Jay-Z’s rare solo performance at the Roots Picnic in Philadelphia—and let’s just say he wasn’t handing out compliments. Dame admitted he felt “embarrassed” for his former business partner, saying he couldn’t understand why the rap mogul was still performing at this stage in his career.

“It must be embarrassing for him to now have to be on that stage, not the same version of himself, and still have to work at that age because he has to,” Damon Dash said.

Dame Claims Jay-Z’s Breath Needed Help

As if critiquing the show wasn’t enough, Dash took things a step further by revisiting a personal gripe he’s apparently been holding onto for years. While reflecting on their history together, he randomly claimed that Jay-Z’s breath “always used to stink,” adding that chewing cinnamon gum allegedly didn’t help the situation.

“Jay’s breath always used to stink. And you know why, because for some reason — don’t you hate when n*ggas got bad breath and chew Big Red [gum.] It’s just cinnamon doo-doo. Nobody wants to smell that,” Dash revealed.

Did Jay-Z Address Damon Dash Onstage At Roots Picnic?

Despite the barrage of jokes and criticism, Dash went on to suggest that fans no longer want to see this version of Jay-Z and even jokingly launched his own “Make Jay Great Again” campaign, urging the Brooklyn icon to ditch the natural hair, get a Caesar cut, throw on a Yankees cap, and return to the image Dame believes fans remember most. But Dash didn’t stop there, also poking fun at Jay’s now-signature afro and claiming the hairstyle was so distracting he could barely focus on the performance itself.

Meanwhile, fans quickly pointed out the irony of the comments, especially given Dash’s own well-documented financial struggles. To make matters even messier, some listeners believe Jay-Z may have subtly addressed Dame during his Roots Picnic set when he rapped about a “Chatty Patty” who was “down on his luck again” — a line many interpreted as a direct shot at his former Roc-A-Fella partner.

Beyond the Gates spoilers for June 8-12, 2026 see the huge Young and the Restless and BTG crossover as Dani Dupree (Karla Mosley) winds up in Bill Hamilton (Timon Kyle Durrett) arms. We’ve also got a tornado blowing into Fairmont Crest and tragedy strikes. As we do on early edition day, we start with what is coming the rest of this week and then we look ahead at next week. Let’s get started!

Beyond the Gates Spoilers Wednesday, June 3rd: Naomi Has a Talk with Smitty

On Wednesday, June 3rd, we’ve got Naomi Hamilton Hawthorne (Arielle Prepetit) having a long, long overdue chat with Smitty Smith (Mike Manning). He of course is the one who brought the red market ring to Jacob Hawthorne (Jibre Hordges) attention and that started the whole undercover investigation. So I wonder if Naomi is going to be upset because Jacob almost died.

If not for Derek Baldwin (Ben Gavin), her hubby Jacob would be gone and instead Derek is dead. Tyrell Richardson (Jaden Lucas Miller) goes to do something bold with Jessica. We’ll see if it’s more horizontal action.

And Martin Richardson (Brandon Claybon) offers some advice to his dad, Ted Richardson (Keith D. Robinson). And this may be about him annoying Nicole Dupree Richardson (Daphnee Duplaix) by nominating her to be chief of staff without asking her, or stepping by setting Shanice Johnson (Ernestine Johnson) up for grief therapy with Nicole without asking Shanice. Ted’s just overstepping all around.

BTG Spoilers: Nicole Turns to Anita

Nicole goes to her mom, Anita Dupree (Tamara Tunie), for advice. And Nicole tells Anita, “Not everything’s about sex, but she tells Nicole, isn’t that what this is about?” So, she may be asking Anita whether she should tell Ted that she’s been thinking about him while boinking his business partner Carlton Fitzgerald (Robert Christopher Riley). I personally think that it’s kind of cruel for Nicole to go behind Shanice’s back and talk like this to Ted. That’s just me.

Monica McCormick (Iona Morris Jackson) tells Vernon Dupree (Clifton Davis) her decision about whether she’ll be the new chief at Garland. Chenise would be thrilled and Nicole definitely doesn’t want the job, but if Monica turns it down, we’ll see. Ted comforts an overwhelmed Eva Thomas Richardson (Ambyr Michelle) and Samantha Richardson (Najah Jackson) is touched when Chelsea Hamilton (RhonniRose Mantilla) and Cat let her know how much she means to them.

Thursday, June 4th

Then on Thursday, June 4th, as Randy Parker (Maurice P. Kerry) and Hayley Lawson (Marquita Goings) talk, expect some lookbacks with backstory of the whole con that she started on Bill a while back and the roots of it and just what inspired it. We also are going to see Bill feeling a bit put out by Hayley and also about Dani chewing him a new one for letting Mike get away with all that nonsense on top of Bill’s cheating and disrespecting his marriage to Dani.

So, Bill’s going to spend some time thinking about his current and past relationships that is also on their daughter’s minds as Chelsea and Naomi talk about Bill and Dani’s messy marriage. Naomi seems put out that Bill didn’t show up for Jacob’s ceremony because Hayley said no. And Bill sat there like a clown when Hayley told him and he just took it and just rolled over. Not cool. Dani’s also thinking about the past and André Richardson (Sean Freeman) is consoling Dani as she processes things.

Beyond the Gates Spoilers Friday, June 5th: Victor Newman Speaks at Fundraiser

Then on Friday, June 5th, we’ve got Vernon talking about the big fundraiser coming the following week for Martin’s reelection campaign. And Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) from Young and the Restless is going to be the keynote speaker helping to raise money for Martin. There’s also five more characters coming over from Y&R to Beyond the Gates. We’re going to talk about that in just a minute.

But we’ve also got Martin getting ready to greet the Abbott family from Genoa City. They are due in the DMV soon. And Kyle Abbott (Michael Mealor) from Y&R knows Martin from when they were both younger men back in New York years before he married Smitty and all that. And Kyle’s parents are also coming along. If you don’t watch Y&R, their names are Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) and Diane Jenkins (Susan Walters).

Beyond the Gates Spoilers: Grayson Hopes for Forgiveness

Also, Grayson Perez (Jordie Vilasuso) is hoping Ashley Morgan (Jen Jacob) will forgive him for keeping secrets. I will say Grayson had an understandable motive. Grayson was desperate for money for his mom’s Parkinson’s care, but still Derek is dead, and you just can’t unring that bell. So, I’m not sure Ashley is in a headspace to forgive him just yet.

Joey Armstrong (Jon Lindstrom) and Randy make final preparations for their meeting with the Impaler, which is set to take place at the casino. Joey will have Randy at his side, and the bad guy also gets to bring one guy. So, we’re finally going to get some answers and find out the identity of the Impaler.

Week of June 8th-12th: Impaler Exposed on Beyond the Gates

And then the week of June 8th through the 12th, that’s when we should actually see the meeting of the Impaler. I feel like Friday, we’re still going to be in prep mode. And then early in the week, it happens. And then the big Young and the Restless crossover event is set for Wednesday through Friday, June 9th through 12th. We’re going to see Victor Newman taking his private jet to DC.

Then he arrives in a helicopter and he’s going to be the main speaker. Vernon Dupree personally goes to pick up his old friend and he greets Victor at the helicopter pad. They hop into a limo and Vernon’s happy to have a drink with his old friend. As they head to the event, he and Victor are clinking glasses and Vernon says he made sure they had Victor’s favorite tequila.

Beyond the Gates Spoilers: Victor Chats with Vernon

And then he and Victor are talking about the first time they ever shared that tequila. It was in Genoa City when Victor was hosting Vernon and Anita. And Victor mentions taking them to the Colonnade Room. That’s a famous old school thing they don’t even have anymore on Y&R. And that his wife Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) was talking to Anita about music.

Nikki is an accomplished pianist and Anita is of course an artist. Victor admires Vernon’s politics and says he was always fair and never played favorites. And Victor says he admires the same thing about Martin. And then Vernon’s talking about building a legacy he’s proud of. He and Victor both are toasting to their legacies.

Beyond the Gates/Young and the Restless Crossover

What’s interesting is three of the other crossover characters are people that Victor absolutely despises. Kyle was invited because he’s friends with Martin. Victor hates him and he particularly hates Kyle’s parents, Jack Abbott and Diane Jenkins Abbott, who are also on the guest list and I’m sure they’re ready to donate. The other two crossover people are Devon Hamilton Winters (Bryton James) and his wife Abby Newman (Melissa Ordway).

And if you recall, Devon has actually been on Beyond the Gates before talking to Anita about recording new material. And this time, Devon’s hoping to talk about a brand new proposition with Anita. We’ll see Jack and Diane chatting up André and Dani at the fundraiser. Martin is hanging with Victor after his speech in front of the cheering crowd. And there’s talk about the room being full of reporters itching for a scandal. And almost all of the Beyond the Gates cast is on hand at the fundraiser.

Leslie Thomas (Trisha Mann-Grant) runs into Joey at the fundraiser and he of course is not happy to see her as she is calling him partner. And Leslie also runs into Ted and she promises that she won’t be naughty. I don’t believe Leslie. Not for one minute. Martin is venting wondering how the hell did he get in here as he stands with his campaign manager Shonda (Dawntavia Marrero).

BTG Spoilers: Joey Ruffles Feathers

And I wonder if Martin is venting about Joey being in attendance because he hates the guy and doesn’t want him around. Doesn’t want him donating to his campaign or anything. I’m sure that Vanessa McBride (Lauren Buglioli) has brought Joey as her plus one.

We’re also going to have Kyle from Genoa City spending time flirting with Hayley and they may be sneaking a kiss after she says Kyle literally saved her life because there is a natural disaster. A tornado hits the building. Windows blow in and a chandelier falls. People are screaming and running and hiding. And Bill just happens to be with Dani in the elevator and they get a jolt and she stumbles into his arm. So, we’ll see if all of Bill and Dani’s recent reminiscing leads them to cross lines and maybe betray their spouses.

In the history of the world, nothing has united people or divided people, like religion. It can bring peace and meaning to one person’s life while destroying another’s. To say that discussing religion in public is controversial, is if anything, an understatement. Babylon 5 ran headlong into the topic early on, using “Parliament of Dreams,” the fifth episode of Season 1, to show the good, the bad, and the importance of religion, culminating in a final shot that serves as creator’s J. Michael Straczynski’s mission statement for the entire series.

Everything that Makes Babylon 5 Great: Religion, Murder, And Love

Babylon 5 is the center of trade, commerce, and diplomacy for hundreds of species, which means when the Earth Alliance dedicates a week to celebrating religions, there’s hundreds of different celebrations on board. Each civilization showcases their dominant religion, resulting in the Minbari’s religious caste hosting prayer sessions, the Centauri throwing a party, and other, less-represented species get quick moments showing what’s important. 

The main plot of the episode has nothing to do with the religious celebration. Narn Ambassador G’Kar is trying to survive an assassination attempt he knows is coming from a political rival out for revenge from beyond the grave. Paranoid, G’Kar assumes it’s his new aide, Na’Toth, overlooking that it’s in fact, the courier his rival sent with the death message. We get an early glimpse into the character G’Kar would become when he and Na’Toth stop the assassin, and let’s them get away. After all, the punishment for failure from the assassin guild is death, so why bother getting his hands dirty? 

As usual, there’s another side plot focusing on giving fans a deeper understanding of one of the characters, in this case, Commander Sinclair (Michael O’Hare) dealing with the reappearance of his on-again, off-again lover and one-time flight student, Catherine Sakai. Now working as a planetary surveyor, Catherine ended up becoming rich thanks to her latest discovery, choosing to celebrate alongside Sinclair. Decidedly “on-again” for now, Catherine promises she’ll come back, and unlike Londo’s love, rest assured, she comes back. 

An Emmy Winning Episode

Babylon 5 pivots back to the religious festival for the closing moments of “Parliament of Dreams” in a major way. Finally, Sinclair is going to show the alien diplomats Earth’s dominant religious culture. He leads them to a long, long line of humans, each representing a different religion found on Earth, starting with an atheist. It’s a brilliant moment that plays out right into the credits to showcase how many religions are to be found on Earth and that Sinclair intends on respecting every single one of them. 

“Parliament of Dreams” was honored at the 1994 Emmys for Outstanding Individual Achievement in Makeup for a Series thanks to all of the alien prosthetics used throughout the episode. The regular alien cast, including Ga’Kar, Londo, Koth, and Deleen, established the look for their respective species but the talented team behind the scenes used this episode to start working out their stock alien background designs. Babylon 5 felt like a real space station populated with hundreds of different species thanks to the team’s dedication in creating unique, memorable looks, even if you only see them in the background of a few shots. 

By the end of the series, there’s no doubt that Babylon 5 was ultimately a show about religion. The ultimate fates of multiple characters, including Sinclair and Neroon, is tied directly into their religious journey. “Parliament of Fates” is an early, beautiful indication to the importance of religion, and why humanity is unique in the universe. 

Kyle Cooke was clocked by his Summer House costars for hooking up with Southern Charm star Salley Carson.

“What’s up with you and Salley from Southern Charm?” Andy Cohen asked Kyle, 43, during part 2 of the Summer House season 10 reunion on Tuesday, June 2. “Is that a thing? Did you guys hookup?”

Kyle initially denied the claims before castmate Lindsay Hubbard stepped in.

“You made out on the night of the Summer House premiere,” she said. “Don’t lie.”

Kyle confirmed that it was “the night before” the party.

“When I found that out, I immediately called [Kyle’s ex-wife] Amanda [Batula], and I told her that Kyle was making out with Salley, and I thought that that was crazy,” castmate Ciara Miller added. “I thought it was absurd. It’s insane.”

Ciara continued, “I’m just making an example of how good of a friend I was to you and how you’re a friend to me. So, I just want to point that out.”

The Summer House season 10 premiere party took place this past February in New York City. Kyle and Amanda were separated at the time. However, it was not yet public that Amanda had moved on with Ciara’s ex West Wilson.

Kyle previously denied having a romantic connection to Salley during a March appearance on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen.

“We were out with multiple friends, at a dive bar,” he said at the time. “This was not a date situation, just having fun. But, she’s a great girl.”

During Tuesday’s reunion, the photos of Kyle making out with Real Housewives of Orange County alum Meghan King from this past April were also discussed.

“I didn’t know who she was, introduced myself,” he recalled. “We ended up at a Page Six party and then an afterparty. I could, kind of, sense people were looking at us.”

Kyle said that he and Meghan “went across the street” but “didn’t” get away from wandering eyes. They discussed their respective divorces before Kyle “gave her a kiss goodnight” — but things didn’t go any further. (Meghan and her ex-husband, Jim Edmonds, finalized their divorce in 2021.)

A source told Us Weekly exclusively in April that Meghan “pursued [Kyle] the second she saw him” that night. Kyle was “in great spirits” at the event, the source shared.

“He was definitely buzzed and was having fun with her,” the insider added. “It’s nothing serious, but they did hang out all night even after the event was over, and made out several times in public.”

The source added, “Meghan did seem interested and gravitated toward him more as the night went on.”

I spend a good chunk of my workday hunting down Amazon deals, and every year the same thing happens: the best fashion finds start disappearing before Prime Day officially begins.

One thing about Blueface and Nevaeh Akira? Their bond and streaming moments often go viral and spark mixed reactions. In a recent stream, the apparent couple reacted to comments from viewers, including one about getting “tested” for sexually-transmitted diseases (STDs). After both confirmed that Nevaeh is the only person being tested, internet users went OFF with critiques and additional questions.

STD Testing? That’s On Nevaeh Akira, Not Blueface

With over 2,000 people watching a recent stream, Blueface and Nevaeh got candid about how they stay clean in the bedroom. At one point, a viewer apparently asked when Blue last went to the doctor. Akira jumped in to answer, saying, “Y’all do know I go to the doctor. This man don’t have nothing.” Blueface added, “Yeah, she goes to the doctor for both of us,” and she laughed in response.

“She go in and if she come back and say it’s clear that means I’m good,” Blueface said. “I don’t even gotta go get checked up,” Blue also said.

Social Media Weighs In On Couple’s Testing Routine

Meanwhile, in The Shade Room’s comment section, the short clip collected over 6,300 comments from the roommates. As expected, some reactions gave harsh takes on the apparent couple’s bedroom safety practices and shared personal experiences with their method. Additionally, others expressed a lack of shock at their reveal, while a select few cracked jokes.

To start, @wessst.coastt wrote, “Believe it or not almost all these men think like that smh.”

“My lil brother passed after birth because he contracted a std that my dad gave his mom. That’s not nothing to play with,” @goldietheplayer commented.

“Gross 🤮 what kinda logic is this 🥴,” @ahh_wth_lexi added.

“That’s why them rates high now,” @rachelsaintfortmusic said.

Akira Seemingly Confirms She’s Had Multiple Abortions

In a separate circulating clip from the same livestream, Nevaeh Akira talked about her other doctor visits. She seemingly confirmed a viewer’s comment about her allegedly having six abortions in the past. After reading the comment, Akira said, “I don’t play” while throwing her hands up. Later she appeared unfazed about someone saying six abortions is a lot.

“I wasn’t ready, gotta get rid of ’em,” she said, laughing when viewers started making assumptions about Blueface being responsible for the aborted pregnancies. “They could’ve been by my first love. Y’all don’t know nothing, y’all just be talking.”

Then, someone asked whether she’d be okay with her unborn son Solar Porter mirroring his father’s behaviors. Her response was that she can’t control a man. “My son gon’ do what the hell he wanna do,” Akira said.
