News of the Day:

+ According to VarietyHBO has ordered a comedy series created by YouTube star Issa Rae and The Nightly Show host Larry Wilmore. The female-centric show is called "Insecure" and it will be a 30-minute segment starring Rae, who also serves as a co-executive producer and writer on the series.  

The co-creator of Degrassi is denying that Drake was "kicked off" the show, despite the claims that the rapper made in his interview with magazine. The whole story is turning into a classic "he said, she said" debate... That didn't stop Drake from going on Instagram to announce that

though.
