‘Breaking up with someone on Mother's Day is diabolical': Lil Wayne's ex speaking out
Is Lil Wayne a bad breaker upper?
That's what the rapper's ex says, and then some.
In a series of Instagram Stories captured on Sunday by Entertainment Weekly, Denise Bidot tells her followers that the 'Lollipop' singer did the deed via text.
'Breaking up with someone on Mother's Day is diabolical,' the Miami native wrote. 'Prayers up though. God always pulls me through. Walking with faith.'
In a video, the plus sized model claims that Wayne kicked her and her daughter Joselyn out of his house and moving has been tough because she is recovering from mommy makeover surgery.
'I can't even lift boxes,' the onetime 'Curvy Girls' star says, 'but this man has his assistants coming to help kick us out today.'
It's unclear where they currently live (most likely L.A.), but Wayne sold his Miami Beach mansion on Allison Island back in 2023.
Bidot, who grew up in Kendall, also lodged cheating and abuse allegations against her boyfriend of five years.
'I've been nothing but supportive to this man, loved him 'til the end of the world.'
Weezy and Bidot went way public with their relationship at the height of the COVID pandemic in the summer of 2020. They appeared to split briefly, reportedly due to a difference in politics in 2022, but reunited shortly after.

The Most Embarrassing Celebrity Moments
Starting strong with Vanessa Hudgens' seriously wild response to COVID-19 lockdowns — and their potential impact on Coachella — during an Instagram Live in March 2020: "Terrible, but like, inevitable?" remains a core part of my lexicon to this day. Moving on, there's that seriously awkward time when James Corden couldn't name a single cameraman who worked on his Late Late Show, and opted to drink fish smoothie instead: Watch here: How about when Lorde dramatically shushed the crowd to deliver her, erm, somewhat divisive vocals a cappella. You can watch the video here. And speaking of divisive vocals, Millie Bobby Brown's impromptu performance of John Lennon's "Imagine" literally lives rent free in my head. Watch here! Then there's that time a TikToker shared the awkward video Ben Affleck sent her after she unmatched him on Raya because she thought he was a catfish: Thinking about it, TikTokers and celebrity men don't exactly have a great track record — who could forget Adam Levine's cringey extra-marital sexts (to multiple different women!) leaking? Alongside the claim that he wanted to name his and his wife's son Sumner, which is the same name as one of the woman he cheated with. Idk about you, but I'm forever wondering what Bella Hadid was thinking when she let us know what sneakers homeboy needed to wear if homeboy wanted to get it. And I'm still cringing over Tom Holland telling American-born Eric Nam that he speaks "great English." And, at one point, Hailey Bieber was physically down bad for Justin Bieber. The notorious video of Justin skateboarding away from paparazzi and Hailey tripping over — as in, literally falling to the ground — as she tries to run after him genuinely haunts me. "Go Hailey, don't fall! Don't fall!" How about that time Jennifer Lopez confidently strutted up to her old home in the Bronx and told the owner that she used to live there, only for him to have no clue who she is? You can watch the full, awkward clip below: And speaking of misplaced confidence, remember when Usher seemed pretty certain that he'd be placed in the middle when a whole bunch of celebs got together to sing "We Are The Champions" for Jimmy Fallon? I still need to know what exactly was going through John Travolta's mind when he introduced Idina Menzel as Adele Dazeem at the 2014 Oscars: Let's relive the moment together: Not to mention the time that same year when Rita Ora was "hacked," but all that those pesky hackers did was send a tweet reading: "Dropping my new song monday if this gets 100,000 retweets." When the tweet was still hovering at less than 2,000 retweets a while later, Rita followed up with: "By the way my Twitter got hacked somebody is threatening to release new music I've worked really hard on. Nothing comes out until I'm ready. Or the bots insist on it! When it's ready we will drop music! Luckily I caught the hacker really quickly and deleted the post. Thank you!!" So lucky, Rita! But Rita isn't the only celeb with an X faux pas up their sleeve. Personally, if I were Patrick Schwarzenegger, I would have been kept awake at night when my sassy tweets about Austin Butler being cast in the upcoming American Psycho movie resurfaced amid my own campaign for the role... I also need to remind you all of the time that Ryan Seacrest tried to high-five a blind American Idol contestant: Watch below: And that time Kendall Jenner genuinely seemed to believe that she could achieve world peace with a Pepsi: Finally, how could I not mention that genuinely infamous Kelly Osbourne The View moment? In the sense that— Rewatch below... If you're strong enough: Whew, that was a lot. Let me know your thoughts — and any moments I've missed — in the comments below!

The MeidasTouch Podcast Now Has 5 Million Subscribers
The MeidasTouch podcast just hit 5 million subscribers, cementing its status as a breakout force in ... More progressive media. Launched during the isolation of the pandemic lockdown era, a group chat between three brothers has transformed into one of the most influential voices in progressive media. The MeidasTouch Podcast — the flagship show of the MeidasTouch Network — has just crossed 5 million subscribers, a milestone that cements its place as not only a media juggernaut but a dominant force in independent political commentary. Founded in 2020 by Ben, Brett, and Jordy Meiselas, MeidasTouch first made waves as an anti-Trump political action committee during the height of the COVID pandemic. At the time, all three brothers were generally frustrated by the state of the world and looking for a productive outlet for their time and talents. 'It felt like screaming into the void,' Brett recently told Vanity Fair. 'So we committed to doing what we could — writing articles, making videos, just getting our thoughts out.' The rise of the MeidasTouch podcast They've been doing that same work, just more of it, ever since. What began with viral videos evolved into a full-fledged media network, now home to a multiple shows including Leigh McGowan's PoliticsGirl, and the legal commentary series Legal AF. But it's the core MeidasTouch Podcast, hosted by the three brothers, that's leading the way and drawing major guests like President Biden and Senators Elizabeth Warren – and racking up viewership numbers that rival cable news. A celebratory tweet posted by the network's senior digital editor Acyn Torabi (@Acyn on X) marked the subscriber milestone, reading in part: 'As we hit 5 million subscribers, I want to say this: this is one small step for the MeidasTouch Network, but I think one giant leap for independent journalism and democracy generally.' As far as who the brothers are: Ben is a lawyer and Colin Kaepernick's business partner, Brett is a two-time Emmy-winning video editor, and Jordy is a top advertising executive in New York. Their network has seen explosive growth so far this year, with Podscribe data showing that the podcast jumped from 57.7 million downloads and views per month in mid-February to 115 million the following month. And even after that surge, the numbers remained strong, with April 2025 data showing 107.3 million downloads. The brothers' YouTube channel alone averages 33 million views every 48 hours, according to Acyn, while the podcast's momentum has been enough to briefly dethrone even The Joe Rogan Experience. In February 2025, MeidasTouch pulled in 57.5 million downloads, outpacing Rogan's 51.5 million for the month. While comparisons to right-wing media stars are inevitable, however, the Meiselas brothers push back on the idea that the left needs its own Rogan. 'Right-wing podcasters weren't cooked up in a lab,' Ben continued in the Vanity Fair interview. 'They developed audiences organically over time.' Brett added that the key isn't finding someone who mimics Rogan's tone or beliefs — it's the authenticity that matters. That's a major part of MeidasTouch's appeal. Brett Meiselas has said in the past that the goal is to make listeners feel like they're part of the same experience the brothers share in private. The vibe, in other words, is supposed to feel like a conversation among friends. As for what's next, Acyn made it clear in his message on X, adding: 'We use our platform for good: to always shine a light on the truth, to expose the injustices taking place, and to confront the authoritarian Trump regime head-on, where corporate news has utterly failed and betrayed us all.' Five million subscribers in, the MeidasTouch Network clearly isn't slowing down. Based on the trends this year alone, there's every reason to believe that this is just the beginning.
