Kehlani And YG Are Officially Over Claims A Source

Singer-songwriter Kehlani and the rapper, YG, are officially over. Last month, fans on social media suspected the relationship between the two artists was finished when the latter was seen kissing another girl near a Los Angeles nightclub. Kehlani And YG Are Officially Over Claims A Source.
In the initial weeks following the reports, fans slowly started to stop talking about the supposed infidelity, moreover, Kehlani helped slow down the rumors as well when she released a song in which she stated she felt “embarrassed” by it all
Yesterday, Kehlani posted and deleted a tweet in which she allegedly hinted her relationship with YG was finished. Screenshots captured by multiple outlets appeared to suggest she had already moved on to singer-rapper, Tory Lanez.
On her account, Kehlani stated succinctly, “I am single, and focused.” As it was previously reported, when the media headlines first began propping up all over the internet, Kehlani assured her fans she would be alright.
On her Twitter account, the star claimed she saw a lot of people online expressing concern for her mental health, with many even suggesting she was in need of a therapist, however, Kehlani told them she was an artist and “dive(s) inward,” instead.
Despite the fact nobody really knows when they broke up, YG and the singer were purportedly together for around six months. They first made their romance public while at New York Fashion Week in September of this year. They made public appearances at other venues as well.
Following the purported split, the singer has been busy with her career, including her music, which she works on in Miami while also raising her baby girl whom she had with her ex-boyfriend, Javaughn. She had the child in March.
Moving past relationship squabbles, it appears as though Kehlani has a solid 2020 coming up. As most know, questions regarding the star’s mental health struggles first started arising in 2016 when she allegedly tried to commit suicide.
On her IG account, she wrote, “never thought I’d get to such a low point” in the caption of the photograph in which she had an IV hooked up to her arm. Additionally, the star said she wanted to “leave this Earth.”

Multiplatform Card-Based Adventure, Cardpocalypse, Comes Out This Week For Nintendo Switch, PS4, and Xbox One

Card-based games used to be played in the schoolyard during recess. There was a fun element of collecting the rare versions of the cards on top of the game itself, and to be honest, it was really all a giant cash-grab by corporations. You would have to buy a new pack just to get access to random cards. But digital card-games help fix that problem. (At least when they’re a one-time purchase game, anyway.) Multiplatform Card-Based Adventure, Cardpocalypse, Comes Out This Week For Nintendo Switch, PS4, and Xbox One.
Apocalypse is that sort of game. It’s designed to be totally one-player, and that’s a lot of fun. Developed by Gambrinus, the game follows a 10-year old kid through the same scenario most of us are familiar with from our youth: Through the school-yard, collecting cards, and battling other kids at recess. In some ways, it’s sort of a meta-thing on the whole card-based gaming experience.
In the game, players follow Jess and her friends, who have all become obsessed with the card game Mega Mutant Power Pets. Unfortunately, the teachers and the principal have joined forces to ban the game from the premises. So the kids will have to sneak around to play their favorite card game.
But before long, something wild happens that changes everything.
The monsters end up coming alive and jumping into the real world. Then there’s only one way to stop them: More cards! Jess and the rest of the kids have to join forces, combine decks, and utilize their card-playing skills to beat back the Mega Mutant Power Pets that have gone rogue.
In an interview with Shacknews, the developers at Gambrinus have said the inspiration for the game came from several different card games from the 1990s. The special mention, of course, was Magic: The Gathering, which is probably the most ubiquitous and persistent card game. In order to produce the game, the developers were playing these games for research. They really wanted to produce a game that felt like a card game in the palm of your hand.
But there’s a funny side to the game too. The story is absolutely adorable, and in general, Cardpocalypse is the sort of game you play to get a few laughs in and really enjoy yourself.
Apocalypse is currently available for purchase for Android/iOS, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and Windows PC/Mac. The price on the Nintendo Switch store is currently discounted from $24.99 to $19.99, so if you’re a fan of card-based games. Be sure to check this one out.

Brawlhalla Adds the Crystal Gems of Steven Universe, Including Garnet, Amethyst, Pearl, and Stevonnie

Brawlhalla added to their ever-growing roster today with four new characters, each from the Steven Universe… universe. The four characters included are the Crystal Gems themselves, Garnet, Amethyst, Pearl, and Stevonnie each making their own appearance. 
Obviously, those familiar with the show will be familiar with these characters outright, but those that haven’t seen it will quickly grow accustomed to the powerful group. Each has been incorporated in a way that seems integrated with their show counterparts, for better and for worse. Garnet hits like a truck, Pearl is fast with decent range, Amethyst is tricky and transformative, and Stevonnie is balanced well with offense and defense.
The Crystal Gems aren’t the only thing being added. This group joins as part of a whole game-wide event, bringing new perks for the whole populace. The Malachite KO Effect has been added, featuring the Steven Universe monstrosity grasping your opponent and dragging them down with them. Brawlhalla Adds the Crystal Gems of Steven Universe, Including Garnet, Amethyst, Pearl, and Stevonnie.
There’s also a new Steven Universe themed game mode as well as a Brawl of the Week called Bubble Tag. In this game mode, players will join a 3v3 team-based game where you tag enemies to capture them in bubbles while also tagging your teammates to free them from their own capture. Being bubbled doesn’t make you immobile, meaning its a hectic and swift game mode. First to five takes the victory!
Players will also enjoy a daily login bonus of 250 gold, as well as a new 1v1 map based on the Crystal Temple. A Steven Universe theme will be taking over the UI for a while as well.
There is a handful of quality of life enhancements coming, too. The match duration for Free-for-all has been lowered to three minutes instead of the previous four to allow time for more matches. Additionally, the default match duration for Timed and Buddy game modes has been lowered to three minutes when played in Couch or Custom Online. Fangwild and Enigma have also had their timings changed to fit these new timers.
Finally, there are a handful of minor bug fixes, as well as making a few animations smoother. The new Legend rotation is here as well, with Rayman, Sentinel, Sir Roland, Isaiah, petra, Asuri, Diana, and Mirage being free for the time being. All in all, it’s another great installment of new content and brief fixes from the dedicated Brawhalla team to keep the game fresh.

Julianne Hough Addresses Her & Gabrielle Union’s ‘America’s Got Talent’ Exits

Julianne Hough is breaking her silence on her and Gabrielle Union’s sudden departures from America’s Got Talent. In an appearance on Today‘s third hour Thursday, Hough did not respond directly when asked by host Craig Melvin what her own experience was as a judge on NBC’s hit summer competition series.
“I commend Gabrielle for speaking her truth and starting a conversation,” said the Dancing With The Stars judge, Julianne Hough Speaks Out On Her Departure And Gabrielle Union's Exit From America's Got Talent. who is set to star with her brother Derek in two NBC Christmas specials. “I’m also really proud of NBC as well for showing up and starting a narrative, and that’s what’s going to change the workplace and the paradigm that we’ve been working in for many, many years, and it’s shifting, and I think that’s really, really exciting.”
Hough’s comments refer to a sit-down Wednesday between NBC and Union to address her departure and to look at ways to improve the culture and atmosphere on the show. Both sides called the meeting “candid and productive.”
Hough added that “Life is crazy and sometimes you can’t control things, and when obstacles come your way you have to be graceful about it and have integrity. I think that people with authenticity and integrity will create change.”
Hough said she hasn’t spoken to Union since they left the show.
“I have reached out. I think we both have been very busy,” she said. “Hopefully, when I get back to LA later this afternoon we can have a conversation.”
It was revealed on November 22 that Hough and Union, who had been with AGT for one season, would not be returning for the show’s 15th season. Reports later emerged that their departures were the result of toxic workplace culture on the long-running competition series.
