Buy Tickets Now: http://kempireafterdarklive.com/nyc This week the tea is HOT and the stakes are real. 👑 First — Tyra Banks pulls a power move: days after suing Netflix and claiming the "Reality Check" doc cost her work, she lands a recurring judge spot on Project Runway… on Hulu and Disney+, a NETFLIX rival. Genius clapback, or does it complicate her whole lawsuit? Then we get into Shamea Morton's explosive Carlos King interview on Reality with the King. Shamea says Angela Oakley's cheating allegations could actually cost her her job as an NBA in-game host for the Hawks — and now she feels like she has to "prove her innocence." She also addresses the Porsha Williams fallout, that messy dinner with Drew Sidora and Angela, the K. Michelle situation, and the years-old Kandi & Todd rumors. There's a LOT. Plus — a historic week for the culture: the Obama Presidential Center FINALLY opened in Chicago with every living president in the building and performances from Stevie Wonder, Springsteen, Jennifer Hudson and more. We'll get into the best moments. And we close with the NeNe Leakes family update, as her son faces another arrest for probation violations. Careers on the line, reputations on trial, and legacies being built — let's get into all of it. Listen, then tell us: whose week was it? 👇 🎙 KEMPIRE: King of Pop Culture — new episodes wherever you listen. 📩 Join the Inner Circle: https://thekempire.com/join 🛍 Shop: https://hausofkempire.com #TyraBanks #ShameaMorton #CarlosKing #RHOA #Obama #NeNeLeakes #PopCulture #RealityTV #KEMPIRE To advertise on the show: sales@advertisecast.com or https://advertising.libsyn.com/Kempire For everything KEMPIRE: thekempire.com | Merch: hausofkempire.com | Mailing List: thekempire.com/join 💲 Support the show: Cash App $TheKempire | Venmo: TheKempire | PayPal: paypal.me/TheKempire Join Club KEMPIRE on Apple Podcasts for members-only episodes.
