    AceShowbiz – Dwyane Wade has given a personal touch to his rap debut. The retired NBA player’s first collaboration with Rick Ross titled “Season Ticket Holder” was released at midnight on Friday, February 21, uncovering a sweet shoutout to his wife of more than five years, Gabrielle Union.
    “My life is a film and Gab’s the lead,” the 38-year-old ex-Miami Heat star spitted his line about the former “America’s Got Talent” judge with whom he shares daughter Kaavia James together. “She’s so precious to me as the air that I breathe.”
    Aside from declaring his love for his 47-year-old wife, Wade expressed his affection for Miami. “Ni**a I got my own county,” he sang as he referred to when Miami-Dade County transformed temporarily into Miami-Wade County in 2010. “Listen, the love of the city has been crazy, man, I appreciate it all/ Thanks for giving my own county.”
    Going by D. Wade moniker in the single, the 13-time All-Star additionally bragged about his triple NBA championship titles. “Three rings on his finger, yeah, that boy was a winner,” he rhymed in the rap track. “Man listen, we put on for the city, sixteen years/ Five finals, three rings, we put those trophies over here.”
    Wade first hinted about his collaboration with Rick Ross on Tuesday, February 18 during an interview on “Good Morning America”. The day after, he unveiled the name and artwork of the single on Instagram. “A lil something for Miami-Wade County,” he captioned the post which also named Raphael Saadiq and former Miami Heat teammate Udonis Haslem as collaborators.

    In an interview with GQ magazine, Wade opened up about how he ended up collaborating with Ross for the single. “Ross came over to my house shortly after I decided to come back for another year, and we were having a meeting about a shoe collab that I wanted to do with Li-Ning,” he began recalling. “I wanted it to incorporate the city of Miami. We finished the meeting and Ross said, ‘D, I’m gonna need you to jump on a track.’ ”
    “…I was like, ‘You know what man? Alright,’ ” he continued. ” ‘Let’s see what the lyrics can be like, and what the beat is like, and we’ll go from there.’ Eventually it got to the point where I realized, this isn’t about me trying to act like a rapper; this is more so me talking about some moments in my life and having a little fun.”

    Wendy Williams Slams Gay Men for Wearing Skirts and Heels but Supports Dwyane Wade's Transgender Kid

    FOX

    The television host criticizes gay men for dressing up like women after she previously cried while offering her support for Dwyane Wade’s young transgender daughter Zaya.
    Feb 14, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Wendy Williams came under fire over her comments about gay men in the latest episode of her show. The television host was dragged on the internet after she told men to “stop wearing our skirts and our heels” while talking about Valentine’s Day.
    “You don’t get a [menstruation] every 28 days,” she said on “The Wendy Williams Show”. “You can do a lot that we do, but I get offended by the idea that we go through something you will never go through.” She added, “Gay men, you’ll never be the women that we are. No matter how gay.”
    She was soon flooded with criticisms online. “Really? What sort of ignorance is coming out of your mouth regarding gay men wanting to be women!! Really Wendy?” one commented. Another wrote, “If you dont like seeing men dressing up like women then i dont like women trying to be like us stop playing sports stop drinking beer stop wearing sweat pants stop using deep voices.”
    While she criticized gay men, Wendy offered support for Dwyane Wade’s transgender daughter Zaya. “The quicker you figure out who you are or who you wanna be in life, the easier life gets when you get older,” she said. “That’s what I’ve discovered.”
    She was overwhelmed with emotion as she added, “At 12 years old, a lot of us didn’t know who we were and we don’t figure it out until we get to high school or college or into our 30s.”
    “I feel like, with all the bullying with kids … good for her for figuring out that lane of who she wants to be,” she continued. “At least she’s got that and a supportive mother and father. For those of you who don’t understand it or don’t like it, don’t say anything. This is a child who’s figured out more about her life than we have when we were 12, alright?”
