Toni Cornell Honors Dad Chris Cornell on Father’s Day in Studio Tour: He Was ‘My Best Friend’
The memories are still sweet. Chris Cornell‘s daughter Toni Cornell took over Billboard‘s Instagram Stories on Father’s Day (June 21) to remember the late Soundgarden frontman with a tour of his home studio in Miami. “I’m so grateful that I was lucky enough to have a dad who was also my best friend,” she said. “Music was our life, so it really created a special bond between the two of us, even when we weren’t on the road. Here in this studio, he taught me how to play the guitar, how to record songs.” The 15-year-old recalled how she used to sit next to the iconic rocker as he wrote music, scribbling her own tunes. She added, “Being here in this room, I feel like I’m around him, and really makes this my happy place.” Th...
D.L. Hughley Tests Positive For COVID-19
Source: @realdlhughley / Instagram Black Twitter called it. After a scary moment that saw him faint while performing on stage, comedian D.L. Hughley revealed that he has tested positive for COVID-19. On Friday night (June 19), Hughley was performing in Nashville. However, during his set at Zanies Comedy Night Club while telling a joke he seemingly passed out. Someone offstage was able to catch him before he totally fell out and he was taken off stage. Fortunately, he responded to treatment and while in the hospital he was diagnosed with exhaustion and dehydration. According to Hughley, he was administered a number of tests, and surprisingly (but not so surprisingly to some Twitter conspiracy theorists) he tested positive for the coronavirus. Speaking just after his release from St. Thomas ...

Baton Rouge School Board Member Got Dragged For All The Filth By Black Activist Gary Chambers
Source: @garychambersjr / Instagram If you’re a Baton Rouge School Board member, it’s a good idea not to be shopping online during a meeting with your constituents. Louisiana’s Connie Bernard learned this the hard way when she got dragged for all the filth by an eloquent and fiery Black activist named Gary Chambers Jr. Reportedly, the District 8 school board meeting was to discuss the removal of the Lee name from Lee High School, which was already a barely sanitized removal of the Robert E. Lee name. In case you haven’t been paying attention, odes to Confederate traitors are no longer the wave. When brother Chambers took to the mic on Thursday (June 18), he was ready, and had all the time. He called out the racism of Connie Bernard being spotted shopping online while the public was airing ...

As we walked around the festival after, fans came up to ask for pictures with him! It was a great memory for both of us.” c...
