Bidot alleged that Wayne's team kicked her and her 16-year-old daughter out of his house where they had been living at the time on Sunday (May 11).
'I am just recovering from surgery. I am five weeks out from a whole mommy makeover. I can't even lift boxes. But this man has his assistants coming to help kick us out today, and broke up with me on Mother's Day through text,' she claimed in a post to her IG Story. 'And her birthday's next weekend. And I leave to New York this week for all the Sports Illustrated press. When I tell you that I am absolutely unsure on how to even process my emotions.'
She went on to allege in a follow-up video that Wayne 'laid a f—ing hand' on her in addition to accusing him of emotional abuse throughout their relationship.
'It's not just the emotional abuse,' Bidot accused. 'This man has actually laid a f—ing hand on me. And I took it. And you know what's crazy is, they always say we're so stupid for love, and I thought it was a mistake. But I know other women he's put his hands on.'
Bidot says she was 'uprooted' from New York City to live with Wayne and claimed he had 'two girls' being flown in as well as a 'plethora' of women on his roster.
'I've been nothing but supportive to this man, loved him 'til the end of the world,' she continued. 'But, like, you literally flew me, uprooted me from New York City where I was living, and brought me here for this bulls–t. Like, that's crazy, you guys. Like, these men really be taking advantage.'
The Sports Illustrated model says she is ready to take legal action, soliciting lawyers to reach out to her as she plans to regroup and take her next steps.
Lil Wayne and Denise Bidot met in 2019 and went public with their relationship in 2020. They appeared to split in 2022 but got back together shortly after.

Black Sabbath's Career-Defining Album Returns And Soars
For the past few weeks, Black Sabbath's catalog has been surging in popularity following the passing of frontman Ozzy Osbourne. Eventually, after any massive uptick comes a decline, and both Black Sabbath's and Osbourne's music is largely falling on Billboard's weekly rankings. Even so, one of Black Sabbath's most famous collections manages to gain a bit of ground and even return to one list, as Americans aren't done honoring the late rocker's legacy. Black Sabbath's Biggest Album Reappears Paranoid can be found on six Billboard charts this week. The full-length, which is widely regarded as one of the greatest in heavy metal history and certainly Black Sabbath's most famous, reappears on the Vinyl Albums chart at No. 20. Throughout the years, Paranoid has only spent a month on the roster, and while it's never cracked the top 10, it has come close to doing so, as it once stalled at No. 11. Paranoid Climbs on Billboard's Sales Chart The same full-length improves its standing on just one Billboard roster, as Paranoid lifts from No. 39 to No. 32 on the Top Album Sales chart. Interestingly, while the bestseller rises, purchases are actually down. Luminate reports that from one tracking period to the next, Paranoid saw its sales decline by less than 1%, and it managed to sell just under 3,000 copies in the U.S. Such a decline is not unexpected, though it is notable that thanks to a lack of competition, Black Sabbath's famous project was still able to ascend. Paranoid Grows by 35% Paranoid lives on for additional Billboard rankings, and it falls on all of them. The title manages the least dramatic slip on the Top Hard Rock Albums ranking, stepping back from the runner-up spot to No. 5. It also backtracks outside the top 10 on both the Top Rock Albums and Top Rock & Alternative Albums lists, where it now appears at Nos. 17 and 20, respectively. Total consumption of Paranoid fell by almost 35% week-over-week. That leads Black Sabbath's decades-old effort to backtrack on the Billboard 200 from No. 27 to No. 90 — its greatest decline. 'Paranoid' and 'War Pigs/Luke's Wall' Black Sabbath sees four singles appear on at least one Billboard tally at the moment, and 'Paranoid' remains its biggest winner, even though it's falling on almost every one of the eight rosters on which it appears. A handful of tunes manage to hold steady on one or two lists apiece, while one track, 'War Pigs/Luke's Wall,' even climbs on the Hot Hard Rock Songs roster. That double song improves from No. 6 to No. 5, reaching a new all-time high as almost everything in the group's catalog descends.

Chappell Roan Misses Her First No. 1 By One Space
Chappell Roan has spent the past several years leaping from indie pop fame to true superstardom. She has scored massive hits on a number of Billboard charts, but there are still a handful of rankings where she has yet to reach No. 1. Her latest single, 'The Subway,' brings her closer than ever on a number of rosters and helps her hit new career highs, even as it just barely misses out on becoming the champion on one of the most competitive song tallies in the United States. 'The Subway' Launches at No. 2 'The Subway' starts at No. 2 on the Streaming Songs chart. That ranking lists only the most successful cuts on the major streaming platforms in the U.S., like Apple Music, Spotify, iHeartRadio, and several others. 'The Giver,' 'Good Luck, Babe!' and 'Pink Pony Club' Roan has never earned a No. 1 on the Streaming Songs chart, though she has come close on multiple occasions. 'The Subway' marks her fourth trip to the top 10. 'The Giver' and 'Good Luck, Babe!' were previously tied as her highest-rising wins, as both stalled in fourth place. 'Pink Pony Club,' one of her most famous tracks, also reached the region as it peaked at No. 6. Another cut from her debut album The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess, the upbeat 'Hot to Go!,' almost cracked the tier, but instead it stopped at No. 12. 'Golden' From KPop Demon Hunters Leads Again Only the biggest song in America keeps Roan from her debut leader on the Streaming Songs tally. 'Golden,' taken from Netflix's KPop Demon Hunters, leads the chart yet again, as it's not just the most-streamed tune in the country, but also the most popular when it comes to general consumption. Chappell Roan's New Top 10 Smashes 'The Subway' is an instant top 10 success on every Billboard ranking it debuts on this frame. The cut earns its loftiest start on the Streaming Songs tally, while it kicks off its time on the Hot 100 at No. 3 and opens on the Digital Song Sales ranking at No. 4. Looking worldwide, 'The Subway' enters the Billboard Global 200 at No. 3 and narrowly finds space inside the highest tier on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S., where it begins its time in tenth place.

Taylor Swift's Half-Decade-Old Song Becomes A Top 10 Bestseller Again
Taylor Swift is one of the lucky few artists who have scored a hit with a song that, for one reason or another, becomes an annual sensation. Most musicians who fit into this club do so thanks to holiday tunes, as Christmas music is massively popular at the end of every year in America. Swift has released tracks that celebrate the jolliest day of the year, but it's in the summer that the singer-songwriter returns to the Billboard charts with the same cut over and over again. 'August' Reenters the Top 10 on Two Charts Swift's 'August' reappears on four Billboard rankings this frame. The track reenters the top 10 on both the Alternative Digital Song Sales and Alternative Streaming Songs charts, coming in at Nos. 7 and 9, respectively. The same tune finds its way to both worldwide rosters as it settles at No. 50 on the Billboard Global 200 and No. 59 on the Billboard Global Excluding U.S., after not finding space on either list last time around. Taylor Swift's Song Nears Its All-Time Peaks 'August' has been much more successful in terms of peak positions when it comes to the two alternative rankings, which are U.S.-specific. Swift's summery tune has reached No. 3 on the Alternative Streaming Songs chart and No. 5 on the Alternative Digital Song Sales roster. 'August' reappears within a few spaces of its all-time best showing on both global rosters, which is impressive, as it was released many years before Billboard introduced the Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excluding U.S. 'August' is an Annual Smash for Taylor Swift 'August' surges in both sales and streams for the obvious reason that it's finally the track's namesake month. Fans of the singer love the song throughout the entire year, but return to it in droves as July comes to an end and in the first few days and even week of the month. The consumption of the cut grew considerably, and that activity is reflected on the current Billboard charts. Folklore Made 'August' a Hit Swift released 'August' in July 2020 as one of the tracks on her surprise album Folklore. The tune took her in a different direction from her previous full-length Lover, which was a pure top 40 radio-ready pop full-length, while Folklore focused on a more acoustic, folk and indie sound. While it was never officially pushed as a single from Folklore, 'August' still managed to reach No. 23 on the Hot 100 and crack the top 10 on various rock and alternative lists.
