Jay-Z admits that fixing his relationship with Beyoncé was harder than growing up in the Marcy projects and being shot at:
“We had to go to a point where it was like, ‘Tear this down and let’s start from the beginning.’ It’s hard. Remember, I’m from Marcy Projects. [Been] shot at. Nothing is harder than this. By far, I’m telling you, it’s the hardest thing I’ve ever done. Most humans, us, we’re not willing to put ourselves through that. Most people give up.”
Whoopi Goldberg reads Deray McKesson for assumption about 'Planet of the Apes' movie:
"DeRay, you need to go back and watch the 1968 original and check out what the apes were wearing. This has nothing to do with you. This was a movie about what happens when mankind doesn't pay attention to environment, to how we treat animals and each other... Get over yourself!"

Blac Chyna’s mother says she’s going to tell her side of the Chyna/Rob situation:
"I'm gonna be sending a video out on social media 'bout Rob and Chyna, the Kardashians, the lawyers, which will be Ms. [Lisa] Bloom as well as Rob Shapiro. I’m gonna speak on everything that's going on. I'm gonna give my opinion. I'm gonna give facts. Why? Because I'm Dream's grandmother, Chyna's mother, King Cairo's grandmother and Rob Kardashian's ex-mother in law to be."
Idris Elba doesn’t think he’s going to remarry:

Jesse Williams speaks out on his failed marriage:
"I was in a relationship 13 years, 13 real years, not five years, not seven years — 13 years. All of a sudden, motherf**kers are writing thinkpieces that I somehow threw [away] a 13-year relationship. Like, the most painful experience I've had in my life, like, with a person I've loved with all of my heart — that I threw a person and my family in the trash because a girl I work with is cute."
