- [Chelsea] First up this morning,
social media star Jake Paul found himself
in a bit of trouble as his L.A. area home
was the scene of an
early morning FBI raid.
TMZ and LA's ABC7 confirmed
that FBI agents served Paul
with a federal search warrant
at his Calabasas residence today.
Now we don't know why
or what the authorities are looking for
but it appears the FBI have seized
what appears to be rifles
and perhaps shotguns
from his home.
This is all based on aerial
footage of the scene from ABC7.
The search also comes
about two weeks after the
23-year old YouTube star
hosted a massive party
at his Calabasas mansion
sparking backlash due to the lack of masks
and social distancing.
- I take it you're not in
a relationship right now,
or are you?
- I am in a relationship
- Ahhh
- I am in a relationship
- There is...
- It's with Common?
- [Chelsea] Next up, Tiffany
Haddish has a boyfriend.
I'll let Jordyn Rolling fill you in.
- [Jordyn] Tiffany Haddish
had already fessed up
that she and Robert Common
have been quarantining together
but in the latest edition of
Steve-O's Wild Ride podcast,
the actress revealed all.
- Yeah. I'm a doin' it with Common now.
- Tiffany said the couple
met when he was cast
as her love interest
in 2019's "The Kitchen"
and though they were
just friends at first,
after raising money for
children and frontline workers
on the dating app Bumble back in March,
things got serious.
- And then he got tested for everything,
I got tested for everything and yeah.
- [Jordyn] The comedian added,
Common is her first celeb
boyfriend and so far
it's hands down the best
relationship she's ever had.
- I got somebody that cares about me,
that really has my back.
Like, it seems like he does anyways.
I love him!
♪ Yeah yeah ♪
♪ Its time to celebrate ♪
- [Chelsea] From one
budding romance to another,
it's time to celebrate because JoJo Siwa
officially has a boyfriend.
♪ Didn't wanna f with
me cause am the one ♪
- [Chelsea] So who's her new fella?
Well his name is Mark Bontempo
and if his last name sounds familiar,
it' because he's related to
another social media star,
Madison Bontempo.
Rumors have been swirling
about the seventeen year old
star's relationship status
for a while now,
so JoJo finally gave her
fans what they wanted
by confirming the news on TikTok
on National Girlfriend Day.
To celebrate the holiday Siwa
and her BF shared two TikToks,
one on the former dance
moms star's account,
where the couple took part in the famous
"I'm the One" challenge,
in which they wear each other's clothes.
JoJo's new man really
leaned into the trend
by wearing her signature glittery outfit
and of course a big hair bow.
JoJo captioned the clip, "meet Mark".
On Mark's account,
he posted a video of Siwa admitting in a
put-a-finger-down video that
she is not currently single.
- [phone audio] Put a finger down
if you are currently single.
Put a finger down if you're--
- [Chelsea] Adding the
caption "If it's not me,
you have some explaining to do."
While the duo has yet
to reveal how they met
or how long they've been together,
they seem super happy.
So, big congrats to JoJo and Mark.
Alright that's all for today
but for more on these stories,

and until next time for Billboard News,
I'm Chelsea Briggs.
