HOWARD UNIVERSITY TO RENAME COLLEGE OF FINE ARTS AFTER CHADWICK BOSEMAN
Howard University in Washington D.C., is honoring Chadwick Boseman by naming its brand new College of Fine Arts after him– the same one that’ll have Phylicia Rashad as its dean. He graduated from the HBCU in 2000 and maintained deep ties to the school.
It’s a fitting tribute since the late Oscar nominee was one of the few people leading the charge to keep the College of Fine Arts from being folded into the larger College of Arts & Sciences. Thankfully, his efforts paid off because not only is it going to be a stand-alone school, it’s also getting a major boost in light of the renaming.
Disney Chairman Bob Iger is leading a fundraiser to help pay for a new state-of-the-art facility for the Chadwick Boseman College of Fine Arts, which will house an endowment in the “Black Panther” star’s honor. In addition, it’ll also have a lot of helpful resources for those looking to get into entertainment and/or broadcasting ... including serving as the headquarters for Howard’s radio and TV stations.

ARIANA GRANDE SHARES PHOTOS FROM WEDDING
As I previously told you, Ariana Grande married Dalton Gomez earlier this month, and now she’s giving fans a look at her big day.
The singer shared a series of photos from her May 15th wedding, including several shots of her custom Vera Wang silk charmeuse, empire waist, backless gown. She also shared photos of some wedding décor, which included flowers hanging from the ceiling, as well as photos of the newlyweds kissing.
Ari also shared more photos and details with Vogue, which reveals that Ariana and Vera made a pact at the Met Gala a few years ago, in which Vera promised to design her wedding gown when the time came for it.
The couple’s wedding took place at their home in Montecito, California. They got engaged back in December.
BRAD PITT GETS JOINT CUSTODY OF KIDS
Angelina Jolie and Brady Pitt's epic custody battle has finally seen joint custody of the children granted to Pitt. A source describes it as a "tentative decision," and says Jolie is fighting on.
While we don't know exactly what Judge John Ouderkirk has decided, he was reportedly "very clear" in a "lengthy" ruling. This decision, of course, follows months of witness testimony that included child service professionals that interviewed the children themselves, as well as others that have been around the family.
The problem...at least as far as Angie's concerned? The kids themselves didn't testify. Jolie is already making her displeasure with the verdict known- and is also seeking to disqualify the judge.
