Jessica Simpson's husband, Eric Johnson, is getting an eyeful of his lady during a pretty hot beach vacay in the Bahamas.

The couple's chilling with some friends, and looks like this trip's just for the adults ... no kiddos were spotted while Mom and Dad got a little closer with some serious PDA in the water.    

Eric looked like a pro on the stand-up paddleboard, while Jessica chilled on the beach.

SUP might not be her thing, but she's got spilling out of a bikini top down pat.

Thank you, God.

Blac Chyna's defending the photo she posted -- but already deleted -- of her daughter, Dream, rockin' pink hair ... telling us her haters need to brush up on what's cool with kids these days. 

We got Chyna at LAX Friday -- with her bf, YBN Almighty Jay, so looks like they're still going strong. Anyway, while they were waiting for their ride we asked her about the backlash against the pink hair extensions.

Chyna says they're just "baby clips" and EVERY kid has 'em -- which sounds like it might be a little bit of a stretch. And even though she took down the photo, BC had a very direct message for people criticizing her or her kid.

And by kid we mean, Dream ... not 18-year-old Jay.

Kanye West and John Legend clearly agree to disagree, because it was all love Friday night at Chrissy Teigen's baby shower. 

Kanye and John had been doing some civilized beefing over Yeezy's call to Make America Great Again ... in other words Kanye's support of Donald Trump.

Kanye posted the pic with the caption, "We got love.  Agree to disagree."

Chrissy and Kim chummed it up as well.  The couples are super close.

Legend is a fierce Trump opponent, who had been calling Kanye out this week and warning him  legacy might be tarnished if he doesn't back off. 

Kanye fired back, essentially suggesting Legend was trying to squelch free thought.  Our Kanye sources say one of the things he's trying to accomplish with his MAGA hat and support of the Prez was symbolic ... that people should not fear expressing and exploring their views.

On the subject of Trump, Kanye released another track called "Ye vs. The People" ... a debate with T.I. about Kanye's stance on Trump.

Actress Ibinabo Fiberesima took to her Instagram page to share her side of the story and also plead for forgiveness in the accident which she was involved in that claimed the life of a medical doctor 12 years ago. 

In the very lengthy post, Ibinabo said she is not a killer and didn't drive under the influence of alcohol on the unfortunate day of the accident. 

Ms Ibinabo also revealed she was depressed and had suicidal thoughts but is currently receiving treatments. 

This post was prompted by the backlash she got after she revealed she is interested in running for political office. Read what she wrote below 

My dearest friends and followers, I greet you this blessed Friday.  Most of you may have heard about my sad story of accident that caused the life of a beautiful and amazing human, Dr. Suraj Giwa. For 12 years, I have remained silent; internally mourning, grieving and praying that time would heal his family and mine. Through those years of my silence, stories were manufactured in the mainstream and social media about the accident. There were so many stories.  My character was assassinated. I did not tell my story. Nobody heard from me, until now. Please take few moments to read the next posts as I share my story of what really happened and seek forgiveness, peace for both families. I finally got the courage to tell my story to Azuka Jebose. It was a burden lifted off my soul. As you read, please continue to pray for the soul of Late Giwa, his family and my family. Thank you for your supports and prayers. God bless you. May the soul of Dr. Suraj Giwa continue to be at peace. Amen

MY STORY

DEAR NIGERIA, I AM SORRY.” “ Dear Azuka,
I greet you. Thank you for allowing me to respond to your recent post here about my political ambition and the fatal accident of 2006. I need to tell my story. I stayed silent for so long and watched as my life, character and person were being ruined in published reports, including social media. This is my story, told for the first time on social media platform.

My heart has never stopped aching. It will not. An accident took the life of someone. I am forever in mourning because of this. Two families’ lives have been changed forever with this unfortunate fatal accident. It was an accident. Dr. Suraj Giwa didn’t have to die. I wished I could bring him back. I am sorry for the pains caused. I have also been maligned and disparaged in the media: I am a monster. I am a killer and a murderer, I am a drunk... No. Azuka. I am none of these.
I am just another human being that was in a deadly accident and the accident caused the death of Dr. Suraj Giwa.

It’s been 12 years of heartache, pain and depression for me. My eyes are rivers of tears.
Some days I feel like killing myself. Life has no meaning to me.
I think about Dr. Giwa every day. I pray for his soul and I pray and seek forgiveness from his family for the pain and agony. I am very sorry.
It didn’t have to happen. I wished I knew it would happen that unfortunate day, I would not have travelled that road. I was not drunk that day.

Azuka, I was driving along Lekki road, returning home after picking up a friend’s daughter from a church Fellowship. Suddenly, a red car overtook the SUV in front of me. The SUV was travelling slowly, so I shifted to its front, too. The red vehicle was being driven by a young man and had his friends with him…I drove past the red car. I think that might have angered the young chap because he swiftly sped from behind, drove past me and made a sudden stop in my front.

I tried to avoid hitting those boys in the red car. I swerved and lost control in that moment, the impact dived my vehicle into inbound lane.. Dr. Giwa was inbound, thus he drove into my car and both cars collided. I collapsed and passed out.. Three days later, I WOKE UP IN A HOSPITAL bed to learn what had happened. I was weak, sore and in pains. I could not move my legs. I had been sedated for three days. Doctors said they had to sedate me to numb my pain. Meanwhile, the police had been informed that I was in that hospital. The Lagos State Police came to the hospital to take my statement of what happened. After I gave them my statement, I was arrested at the hospital and charged to court.

At my court appearance for hearing, the judge noticed how sick, weak, incoherent an disoriented I was: he also saw my injuries. He ordered that I should be sent back to the hospital for further treatment until I was well enough to stand trial. I could not walk then.

Later at the hospital, I woke up from coma and to reality. I was afraid and shocked. I could not believe I was involved in an accident that had taken a life. I was like: Wow!..Someone died in that accident. Oh my God!. I didn’t know the family. While I was in the hospital my family contacted the family of Late dr. Giwa who died in the accident. My family was there for the funeral and did everything during the mourning season. I was afraid. But I met them in court and tried to approach them. I understood the anger and pain I had caused them, so I accepted their anger toward me….his sister was really angry at me… I wanted to talk to her… it was hard for me to get close to her… I understood all these: the pain and distress they felt as a result of the accident. I felt their pain. I wanted to tell them how sorry and remorseful I was… It was an accident. I did not intend to wake up that morning, went out and had a fatal collision.
Weeks later, I was arraigned. I attended all my court appearances. During the process I visited the family and attempted several times to make peace. I never ignored them. I am always sorry. I know the pain is tough, so I understood their anger but I kept begging. I am sorry.

I did not intend to wake up that morning, went out and had a fatal collision.
Weeks later, I was arraigned. I attended all my court appearances. During the process I visited the family and attempted several times to make peace. I never ignored them. I am always sorry. I know the pain is tough, so I understood their anger but I kept begging. I am sorry. I had gone to so many good people and friends to assist me in pleading for forgiveness from the family. One of such friends is late Iyalode of Lagos. She assisted me in begging the Giwa family: when I became well and able to walk, she took me to The former Imam of Lagos and the Present Oba of Lagos: these traditional and religious leaders begged on my behalf, pleading with the family for forgiveness and showed how sorry and remorseful I was that the accident happened. I never ran away from the scene of the accident.
I was unconscious.
How could an unconscious accident victim remove plate license and registration papers from the vehicle as reported in the media? Why would I do a thing like that? How could I have done a thing like that?

I became a monster in the eyes of everyone. So I thought suicide was the best option to end all these and find peace for my family and Dr. Giwa’s family. I lost myself.
I was no longer Ibinabo.
I didn’t know who I was.
I became a stranger to myself and my family, afraid of life and living, scarred by and scared of human beings.
I withdrew and became clinically depressed.

I could not take care of my children. I was dying.
Azuka, I was dying. Life had no meaning to me. I became a lonely zombie: a mother that could not care for her children, distressed, disturbed and severely depressed.

I was sent to Kirikiri female Prison. I wanted to die there. I accepted to end it.
But one preacher came to the prison and preached to us. It was like he was talking to me. During his sermon, I fainted… I was revived by prisoners that attended the service. When I woke up, I was soaked in water and the prisoners gathered around me… I asked what happened and they told me I had Passed out during the service.. That opened my eyes. I asked myself then: Ibinabo, do you really want to die?. I said no. I must turn my life to purpose driven, to rescue the weak and helped those that society had turned against.. I held onto God. I told Him it was up to Him. I didn’t want to see any lawyer again, I had no money. My family bailed me out after three months and three days…. I came out to pursue the appeal…
I was living my simple life…I engaged in works with youths in my village. I enjoy spending time in my town. They know me there. They love me there… I was on my way to a funeral when my lawyer called me.. Earlier the previous day, I called to inform him I would be out of town and hoped the appeal date would not be scheduled while I was out of town.
He said no. I told him I didn’t want the court to think I jumped bail… He called me on my way to the funeral, the next day and said the court date was actually that morning. I had to hurry back to court.
I lost the appeal. I was shocked.

My lawyer did not understand what was going on. That day, I was taken back to Kirikiri maximum security prison… that was 2016…

While at Kirikiri, I discovered I had a lump in my breast. I had to do surgery… when I was released, I went to the village so that I would not breakdown and collapse into depression again…
Yes I want to serve my people.. I want to be positive and impact people’s lives. And yes, Azuka, I remember that this sad situation is still here…
I do not know who else to talk to…

I do not know what else to do. I need help…
The family sued me for N200Million in a civil case…
Where will I get that money from?. So we have been negotiating to see where we can get to, so I can begin making payment by installment.

We have agreed to settle out of court… we are not there yet. It’s a process… Though I have appealed this case to the Supreme Court, what is important to me now is making peace with the family: that is more important because it will heal me… his family and I would have peace.

Azuka I am not a bad person. I do not know what else to do. People think I am a murderer. I am not. I am not. Azuka, free me….Free me… It was an unfortunate accident. I didn’t do it intentionally. That’s all I have been begging…
I have begged…I do not know what to do…I am truly sorry it happened…

I am not running for any political office. My people wanted me. A group of youths from my place asked me to run for office, I said no. They went and printed poster and placed it on social media. So I endorsed it.

Eventually, I must live. I have to do things to my fulfillment, to what God wants me to do; to be able to help youths help people generally… Life in Okrika is not easy… I need to help the youths believe in themselves… they are aching.. In my region, simple things of life are a struggle to get. I need to change their mindset that there is alternative way to Life… I have become a seeker of peace for my people… Life hasn’t been a bed of roses… But I must deal with this issue. I seek forgiveness from the family and peace of mind. I need to find closure and peace.… I am not a killer… I care too much… I am a caring person. I put myself in the shoes of Giwa’s family and I can understand their pains. I am very sorry for the loss of life of Dr. Giwa. I am. I am not arrogant.

I never, ever said to his family that I would not offer public apology.
I was offered to do a public service announcement across country with regards to Driving While Impaired. I said if I did that, it then meant I accepted I was drunk when I drove my car. I wasn’t drunk. I would do anything but that. I wasn’t drunk… they assumed because I owned a night club in the past, so I must be an alcoholic.

This is exactly the truth. It’s not fair to admit that I was drunk.
The police did not arrest me for drunk driving.. The court never charged me with drunk driving.. There were reckless and dangerous driving charges.
Those were what I was charged by the court…. I was not charged with manslaughter.
Not murder…

My pains through the years include: Bouts of depression Attempted suicide I Had surgeries in my breast to remove lumps. I cannot do a lot. This unfortunate experience has affected my job prospects. I am unemployable I have stopped acting for a while. I just do charity works.. I am not flamboyant.. Dear Nigeria, I am sorry. I will forever regret what happened.
Giwa was a father, husband and son. He was the sole and soul provider of his family. I feel terrible he died during an accident which I was involved. I feel really bad. I am sorry. I need prayers. Please pray for me and the soul of Giwa and his family.

I know I have found God through this experience. But I still need help. I am receiving therapy for my depression and suicidal thoughts… I am able to share these with you.. I am healing… one moment at a time..I am not a killer. I am not a murderer. I am not an alcoholic. I did not drive while intoxicated. I was involved in an accident that resulted in death and for that I am very sorry. I have had periods of feeling miserable in the last 12years as a result of this accident. I need to find peace. I seek forgiveness. I am sorry... Thank you" ** As told to Azuka Jebose

She is a magnet for attention.   

And Blac Chyna, 29, showed a wildness of style when she was pap-snapped at LAX on Friday with her beau YBN Almighty Jay, who is only 18.

Chyna, a 29-year-old ex-stripper and ex-reality star, modeled a leopard print Married To The Mob hoodie and matching leggings as she made her way it through the airport.

The Washington, D.C. native, who has a one-year-old daughter called Dream by Rob Kardashian, let her platinum blonde hair spill out from under her hood.

She wore a pale pink shade of lipstick that matched her nail polish, rounding off the ensemble with a pair of brown-trimmed black sneakers.

Meanwhile, that drastically younger boyfriend of hers wore a Nike hoodie and accessorized with a pendant reading: 'ALMIGHTY JAY'.

YBN Almighty Jay, a.k.a. Jay Bradley, asked Chyna: 'Will You Marry Me?' on Instagram earlier this month - though it is not entirely clear whether or not he was joking.

Jay-Z reportedly presented Beyonce with a ''huge diamond ring'' after her triumphant Coachella performance.

The 'Formation' singer made history earlier this month when she was the first black woman to headline the annual music festival in Indio, California, and her husband - who joined her on stage for both that show and her second at the event the following weekend - stunned her with a special gift backstage to commemorate the moment.

A source told Grazia magazine: ''Jay presented it to her in her dressing room while [her sister] Solange and her husband were there. [The diamond] was huge. Jay is always really generous with her and makes gestures like that at significant times. They are happier than they have been in a long time.''

Meanwhile, Beyonce's mother Tina Knowles-Lawson recently admitted she was ''afraid'' about the way her daughter had decided to honour black culture and historically black colleges and universities (HBCU) in her set as she worried the Californian festival's ''predominantly white'' audience wouldn't understand, but the 36-year-old star was determined to do what was ''best for the world''.

She wrote on Instagram: ''I told Beyoncé that I was afraid that the predominately white audience at Coachella would be confused by all of the black culture and Black college culture because it was something that they might not get.

''Her brave response to me made me feel a bit selfish and ashamed.

''She said, 'I have worked very hard to get to the point where I have a true voice and at this point in my life and my career I have a responsibility to do what's best for the world and not what is most popular. ''

And the 'Crazy in Love' hitmaker told her mother she wanted her performance to encourage young people to go out and research and better understand her cultural referencing from the show.

Tina added: ''She said that her hope is that after the show young people would research this culture and see how cool it is, and young people black and white would listen to 'LIFT EVERY VOICE AND SING' and see how amazing the words are for us all and bridge the gap. She also hopes that it will encourage young kids to enroll in our amazing Historically Black Colleges and Universities. I stand corrected.(sic)''

Chrissy Teigen is counting down her last months of pregnancy with a Legend-ary shower!

The pregnant star, who is expecting her second child, a baby boy with husband John Legend in June, celebrated her son’s arrival with a party in Los Angeles that was documented on Instagram Story by Teigen, 32, as well as guest Kim Kardashian and Kanye West. (Turned out their previously talked-about dinner was Chrissy’s baby shower!)

Also in attendance was Kris Jenner, who showed off the array of cakes that were served at the shower, all with different puns and quotes with the word, “legend.”

“Can you guess whose baby shower it is tonight?” the Keeping Up with the Kardashians reality star asked in one of her video clips shared on social media. The guests also dined on Shake Shack burgers and drinks.

Meanwhile, the baby shower came days after Legend and West’s conversation that the rapper shared publicly amid the backlash to West’s public support of Trump.

During West’s Twitter spree on Wednesday, Legend tweeted a cryptic message after West proclaimed his love for Trump, calling him “my brother.”

Cardi B has responded to her former manager’s $10 million lawsuit.

On Thursday, Klenord Raphael, aka Shaft, filed a lawsuit claiming that he discovered the “Bodak Yellow” star, only to be “frozen out” of her career just as it was exploding.

An attorney representing the red-hot rapper responded Friday, telling Page Six in a statement that “Shaft’s claim raises a huge question.”

Paul LiCalsi, a partner at Robins Kaplan LLP said, “After a full investigation of the facts, we will be responding to these allegations in detail in court. But even on its face, Shaft’s claim raises a huge question. For a hefty commission, a manager promises to carefully counsel and guide an artist in her or his career. In exchange, the law imposes a high fiduciary duty on the manager to always act in the artist’s best interest, not engage in conflicts of interest, not overreach, and not self-deal.”

LiCalsi suggests that Shaft signed on as Cardi B’s manager for a 20 percent commission, then signed her up through a different company in a “deal that takes 50 percent of her music royalties from Atlantic Records, 50 percent of her music copyrights, and 25 percent of her other earnings.”

He asked, “How does that comport with his fiduciary duty as her manager?”

Shaft is suing Cardi B for breach of contract for ditching him and signing with a different manager, as well as defamation for claiming that he “robbed her.”
