T.I. and Tiny Harris just scored a major legal win—again. After a long battle, a federal judge has reinstated their $71.5 million payout in the lawsuit against MGA Entertainment, ruling that the toy company did, in fact, copy the OMG Girlz’s signature style for its O.M.G. Dolls.

This latest decision restores $53.6 million in punitive damages and $17.9 million in actual damages—money that was initially awarded but later questioned by the judge. Now, after further review, U.S. District Judge James V. Selna is standing by the jury’s verdict, stating, “The Court grants disgorgement of profits… and affirms the jury’s award.”

It’s been a rollercoaster of a case, with setbacks, a mistrial, and even an earlier ruling in MGA’s favor. But as Tiny put it best: “The third time’s the charm.”

Coco Gauff is making major moves both on and off the court. The tennis star just became one of the youngest donors in the United Negro College Fund’s history, contributing $100,000 in scholarships for HBCU student-athletes in tennis. 

“My family has a deep-rooted history with HBCUs, going all the way back to my great, great grandfather. From aunts and uncles to cousins, HBCUs have played a huge role in shaping who we are. Supporting UNCF in creating opportunities for student-athletes in tennis means a lot to me,” Gauff shared in a press release.

The scholarships, set to be awarded in May under the Coco Gauff Scholarship Program, aim to inspire the next generation of Black athletes to pursue both their sport and education. UNCF’s Maurice E. Jenkins, Jr. praised her generosity, calling it a game-changer for students.
