?uestlove Detained At Buffalo Airport

Ok, I didn't write this account of what happend to ?uest. I got it off a message board, but how am I supposed to credit "Piano Man" from some random board? It was Urban Chocolate.com.

Ahmir “?uestlove” Thompson, the drummer for The Roots, was detained by the DEA sometime last week while attempting to board a plane at a Buffalo airport. ?uestlove wrote about the altercation on his MySpace blog, which he described as “possibly the most humiliating hour of my life.” The incident occurred when ?uest purchased his plane ticket 24 hours before the flight, automatically placing him in a special security line. When his luggage was checked, authorities found with a Louis Vuitton bag containing money from various countries. “Thing is, I absolutely forgot that I was carrying around all of my post Roots show DJ ?uestlove gig money,” he wrote. “It was there they discovered my DJ money stash from countries all around the world.” ?ueset claims he forgot to deposit the money before boarding the plane and was subsequently transferred from the airport security to the DEA. Authorities then questioned ?uest about his bag full of “$100,000 in China money.” When the heavyset drummer tried to convince security he was a Grammy award-winning artist, they picked up an issue of XXL out of his luggage and asked, “Where are you in this magazine? You said you were in a rap group, huh? How can a rapper not be in a rap magazine?” Security then forced ?uest to remove his pants, which he describes as “single handily the most embarrassing moment of my career.”

I For One Hope The Monica / Rock Hill Break Up Rumors Aren't True

Because dammit, I can't take another tattoo cover-up situation from this girl. Remember that C-Murda tattoo she used to keep covered on her shoulder? This crap is almost as bad as Brandy tattooing Quentin Richardson's face on her back. Oh, and maybe it's not such a good idea to have a party for your baby daddy at a strip club. I mean, it does give the impression that it's, you know, Ok to fuck with strippers. I'm just saying.


UDATE: I'm guessing Sandra Rose's picture of the day is saying YBF don't know what the fuck they talking about. But hell, it ain't gossip if you don't spread it around!

T-Pain Got Arrested Last Night And Young Buck Caused A Shoot Out

T-Pain got arrested because he was closing out the show at the Radio One Springfest in Miami and they told him he had to cut his set short, even though the crowd was chanting for him to continue. Baller Status got an eyewitness who said: T-Pain ignored requests to cut his performance, continuing to put on his show, all while the backstage area began to fill with police officers. They said T-Pain's manager ran off stage, pushed down a female police officer while trying to make his way to the DJ booth, which is when he was surrounded by authorities before running back to the stage. While this was going on, other officers argued with event organizers backstage to shut down T-Pain's show, but the singer continued on. When the singer finally broke into "Buy You A Drink," his latest single, T-Pain's music was finally cut. He then tossed his mic and became furious, jumping up and down, while throwing middle fingers at the police and screaming "f--- you." Anyway, T-Pain and his people left the venue followed by police who pulled them over and arrested everybody.

I don't know what to say about Young Buck. He had a concert in a local club in Kennewick, Washington last night, and after it was over he invited the whole club back to the Hilton Garden Inn for the afterparty. 50 people showed up and at 2 am guests reported running and hollering in the hallways and shots fired. One person got shot and 9 people got arrested. Not sure if Buck got arrested or not.

Does Monica Dress Her Baby Like A Thug?

What's the big deal about the way Monica dresses her son? She loves to claim the hood, so why would she dress her son anything but? Anyway, Monica gettin' real tired of all the negative comments she reads on the Internet regarding her baby, Lil' Rock, and she dropped a message for all you smart mouths on Sandra Rose's page:

How do we constantly find negative when only positive exists? Is it a problem with the world or people in general? My son is being raised by strong black men, so therefore, when I dress him, I dress him as one. Not as a thug, not as a hoodlum. How he dresses reflects nothing that I teach him. Morals and values are instilled in our home and in our lives. And for those that choose to speak negative, I simply must say take a look at self and dissect the problems within before you try to look at my life and dissect mine. My son is loved, blessed, favored by God and supported by many.

Oh, and YBF is saying Monica and her baby daddy, Rock Hill, broke up over a stripper. Maybe that birthday party she threw for Rock at the Body Tap was a bad idea.

Busta Rhymes Gay Gangster In Debt

This British gossip blog called Holy Moly blasted Busta's ass
in their mail out.

Check out what they said:

When Busta Rhymes signed to Dr Dre's Aftermath label, all seemed well with the world. His producers and entourage made the point that this would be the greatest album of all time, ensuring that Busta did believe the hype.
He embarked on a spending spree that would make even a Premiership footballer blush at its profligacy. The album, 'The Big Bang', was a huge success (though some critics felt it was more akin to 'Big Bollocks') and gave him his first US number one, but even this wasn't enough to fill his rapidly-shrinking pockets.
So it's not only credit card companies chasing the slippery rapper for donations to their maxed-out accounts, but also some scarier types, who tend not to talk about such things as 'variable APR' but to target such things as fingers, knees and family pets. For starters. Perhaps it's finally time for that exposé book deal: "I Am What I Am - Gay And Gangsta."
"Bwah!"

Playboy Bunny Arrested In Drug Bust

Miss December Kia Drayton and her "trainer" Otis Story got busted after they smuggled a brick of cocain from Atlanta to North Charleston. Police say they left the brick in their hotel room safe and that the cleaning lady found it. Ok, what the hell was the cleaning lady doing in the safe? She claims she thought they'd checked out already. Umm hmm, yeah. Anyway, she called the cops and they set up the bust. Along with the brick, the cops found two hand guns and a bullet proof vest. Kia and Otis are being held on 2 million dollars bond each.

Russell Back Tracking On Bill O'Rilley

Tale Of The Tape

Yesterday The Post did a piece on Damon Dash and his holdings. They didn't paint a very rosey picture, but I was still impressed. Anyway, they said he's struggling to remake his empire a year and a half after splitting with Jay-Z. They broke it down saying, Dame's CEO clothing line has yet to take off, his reality TV show "Ultimate Hustler" aired for one season and bombed in the ratings, his foray into Hollywood with the movies "State Property" and "The Woodsman" did not produced box office hits, though DVD sales fared better. Plus they say Dame pulled the plug on his State Property sportswear line and fledgling record label Damon Dash Music Group. They also said, while the line of designer clothing by his wife Rachel Roy has garnered critical acclaim, and a higher profile after Roy appeared on "Oprah," it has yet to turn a profit, and that Dash's biggest win so far has been Pro-Keds, a sneaker brand he licensed from Stride Rite in 2004 and which, according to industry estimates, has more than doubled sales in the past year to exceed $22 million.

Anyway, it started a little debate on my favorite message board and reavealed some things about Jay Z that I didn't know.

The first person was like:

….Dash needed and needs Jay period.

Then this other one said:

…..Jay is an employee. Jay didn't own Roc-A-Wear, doesn't own the 40/40 Club but he is good at endorsing products. It's a whole lot different when you're the entrepreneur as Dame is.

So then this anonymous poster said:

….Listen ***** or Dame Dash intern, U are dealing with smart folks here, ok.
1. Jay Z owns 50% of 40/40 brand ( NY, NJ, LA, Vegas, Singapore, Tokyo)
2. Jay Z owned 50% of Rocawear (25% + Dame Dash's 25% which he bought in 2005)
3. Jay Z owns Spotted Pig restaurant and he also bought the building.
4. Jay Z owns a portion of NJ Nets
5. Jay Z owns 50% of Rocafella records
6. Jay Z owns 50% of the company that manufactures Rocawear todate
7. Jay Z is paid $2 million per yr as Rocawear CEO
8. Jay Z is paid $3.3 million per yr as CEO of Def Jam
9. Jay Z owns part of Steve Stoute Translation company
10. Jay Z owns a part of Carol's Daughter
11. Jay Z owns his publishing ( This brings a ton every yr)
On top of all that he gets money from RBK, Coke, Budweiser, HP, PoloNow that article about Dame Dash explained clearly that Dash has no venture making money period. He gets just a little licensing money from Pro Keds but that is it. How can U be a businessman and fail this much while Jay who U want us to believe is not a businessman succeed in so many ventures??

Then just to be funny they added:

We don't believe U, U need more people.

House Owned By Michael Vick Raided

Altanta Falcon Michael Vick's little cousin bout to get him in trouble. Police in Virginia were conducting a drug investigation on Mike's cousin, 26 year old Davon Boddie, and raided his house, only it's not his house, the house is owned by Vick. And to make it worse, they found 60 scarred and emanciated dogs. Wayne Pacelle, president and CEO of The Humane Society of the United States, said they've "heard troubling reports for some time that Michael Vick has been involved in organized dog fighting, and we fear that this investigation may validate that very disturbing allegation.''

Snoop was schelduled to fly into Sydney this week to host the MTV Australia Video Music Awards but officials nipped those plans in the bud by cancelling his visa.

"This man has been a member of a Los Angeles gang - and is still associated with it apparently - that has been involved in murder, robberies and drug dealing," Immigration Minister Kevin Andrews told Sydney's Macquarie Radio.

"He doesn't seem the sort of bloke we want in this country."

Eve Crashed Her Maserati And Got Arrested

E-V-E ran her maserati up on the median on Hollywood Boulevard last night and she must have smelled like alcohol, cause after the cops got there they put her ass in cuffs. Of course TMZ was there to catch all the action. Poor Eve. One of her boys tried to help by cussing out the camera man, but that only made it worse. Check out the video here.

UPDATE: TMZ says E-V-E posted a $30,000.00 bail and was released. 30 Gs!? Was it a person pinned under that car? See the footage here. Oh yeah, they say Eve's alcohol level was double the legal limit.

Who Really Runs Hip Hop?

Yesterday Russell Simmons proposed a ban on the words Nigger, Hoe and Bitch on rap records, but does he really have the power to censor hip hop? I read a very interesting diatribe on my favorite message board about who really runs shit in the music industry.
Wanna read it? Here it go:

With the one possible exception of Percy “Master P” Miller there is no such person as a black Hip Hop mogul. Puffy ain’t one, neither is Andre Harrell, nor Rush(Russell Simmons) , nor Andre “Dr Dre” Young, and Marion “Suge” Knight especially was never a mogul. Neither is Shawn “Jay Z” Carter , his ex-sidekick Damon Dash, or Jermaine Dupri or even Bob Johnson. All these folks might be rich, but they sure are no moguls.
Now Jack Warner, he was a mogul. Ahmed Ertegun, that was a (mini) mogul. David Geffen is a mogul.So is there such a thing as a Hip Hop mogul? Of course, there are quite a few of them. Here’s the list: Clive Davis, Rick Rubin, Lyor Cohen, Steve Gottlieb, Jimmy Iovine, Ted Fields, Doug Morris, Mel Lewinter, Edgar Bronfman, Jr., Sumner Redstone, Percy Miller. Then there’s the Hip Hop ueber-mogul, attorney Paul Schindler, and his sidekick, business manager Burt Padell.Ok. So what about the black record industry pioneers of Hip Hop. Any there? Well, maybe Sylvia Robinson in the late 1970’s, but that was over in a heartbeat. The real Hip Hop record pioneers?There you have them: William Socolov, Arthur Russell (Sleeping Bag Records), Rick Rubin (Def Jam Recordings), Steve Plotniki and Corey Robbins (Profile Records), Jerry Allen (BDP Records), Tom Silverman (Tommy Boy Records), maybe even Hiroshi Matsuo (Pallas Records). None of them black, one is Japanese. Oh, and let’s not forget Arthur Baker (Fat Boys), and the late Steve Salem.
And no no no. Russell Simmons did not co-found Def Jam. Nor did he ever run Def Jam. Rick Rubin ran Def Jam. Later Lyor Cohen ran Def Jam. Nor did Russell ever sign Def Jam’s big acts. LL Cool J? Rick Rubin. The Beastie Boys? Rick Rubin. Public Enemy? Rick Rubin. Oran “Juice” Jones? Lyor Cohen.So what was Russell’s claim to fame? Simple, Rush is the house that Joey built. Russell is Joey “Run” Simmons’ brother. That Rev. Run (oh, boy "Rev." Now, that's a whole other story) of Run-DMC fame. That’s what made Rick Rubin decide to open the door for Russell.Ah, but Run-DMC. Now that’s a black owned and controlled group!?!? Nope. Produced by: Rick Rubin. Record company: Profile Records, (Cory Robbins and Steve Plotniki). Management: Rush Artist Management run by…Lyor Cohen. Publicist: Bill Adler. Black? Nope, nice guy, but absolutely not black.Ok, their attorneys were black. Right? Nope. Grubman, Indursky and Schindler. Not black. Black business management? Nope Burt Padell. Not black.Then, … ah, but, but, but at least their booking agents were black, right? Naw. Norby Walters (aka Norby Meyers), Cara Lewis, not black. (Cara, being a red head, is definitely not black).Public Enemy, in their heyday? Record Company: Def Jam. Not black. Rush Management, not black, Norby Walters Agency, Pyramid Agency, William Morris Agency, (Cara Lewis) not black. Publicist: Bill Adler.BDP (Scott la Rock, Kris Parker and Scottie Morris), Record Company: BDP Records: Not black. Attorney (Jay Kramer), not black, management (Jay Kramer), not black.

On another note, people forget that Master P REALLY is a master.
First rapper to own 100% of his Masters
First and only rapper/CEO to receive 85% of profits in a major deal
Has sold 75 million records as an independent CEO
First rapper to be worth over $100 million
First rapper to be worth over $300 million
Suffice it to say he is one SMART COOKIE! Neither Jay, Diddy, nor Russell have accomplished those BY THEMSELVES!

Telfair Dropped From The Celtics

Sebastian Telfair was dropped by the Boston Celtics yesterday, four days after he was arrested on a gun charge.

"The facts and circumstances of his case have not been determined, but he does not have a Celtics locker and we do not anticipate that he will," said Celtic managing partner Wic Grousbeck yesterday.

Grousbeck did not say how the team would handle the remaining season on Telfair's contract, which paid the Brooklyn-born 21-year-old just under $1.8 million for the 2006-07 campaign.

Telfair, who at 6-foot was the shortest player ever drafted straight out of high school, had a disappointing season with the Celtics. He started just 30 of the 78 games he played after being traded from the Portland Trail Blazers last June.

The Lincoln HS phenom averaged just six points a game and the Celtics finished at the bottom of the NBA's Eastern Conference, with a worse record than even the Knicks.

Telfair, who has nine brothers and sisters and grew up in the rough Coney Island projects, still supports 17 relatives on his NBA salary.

At Least She Ain't Name The Baby Fortuna Bay

We heard Scary Spice did not name her baby Fortuna Daphne Bay. She named her Angel Iris Murphy Brown. Plus she rehashes her relationship with Eddie Murphy in British magazine OK!. She claims Murphy became aware of her pregnancy while they were still together and was "over the moon". She tells the mag, "We had talked about having a family and getting married. We started talking about whether we should buy a house together, where we could be alone together." Brown insists Murphy was a loving boyfriend and excited about the baby when she flew to her native England to visit her mother last December, but when she returned Murphy had ended their relationship and was denying paternity of the tot. Brown explains, "I came to see my mum for a few days as I wanted to see her in person. Then I got a flight home, landed and there is a whole sea of photographers. There were people shouting about a DNA test. "I was in complete shock. I tried to call Eddie and couldn't get through. Then I got through and he said he would call me back and that was it. He never called back. I literally couldn't understand what was happening." While Brown was flying home to Los Angeles, Murphy appeared on Dutch TV show RTL Boulevard, saying, "I don't know whose child that is, until it comes out and has a blood test." She laments, "I was shocked and then I felt a bit disgusted. I don't feel humiliated. I think the only person who has humiliated themselves is Eddie. "If he wants to do a DNA test, then do it. Step up to the plate and be responsible. I have no doubt that this is Eddie's baby. "I'm not registering her birth without her dad."

Sebastian Telfair Arrested On The Bronx River Parkway

Do you remember the last time we talked about Boston Celtic Sebastian Telfair? He'd just gotten his chain snatched in front of P Diddy's NY restaurant, Justin's, and somehow rapper Fabolous got shot in the leg at the same location. Translation: Fab's boys from Brooklyn like to snatch chains for fun and but Sebastian ain't play that shit. Anyway, last night Sebastian was doing 77 mph in a 45 mph zone on the Bronx River Parkway and got pulled over. When asked for his license he offered a suspended Florida drivers license. His passenger didn't have a license either and both men were ordered out of the car. That's when the cop noticed a handgun under the driver's seat. Both Sebastian and his passenger said they didn't know where the gun came from. They were both arrested and each posted $7,500.00 bail and were released. Sebastian's cousin Knicks guard Stephon Marbury came to court with him. "I was there to support my cousin - and that's it," Marbury told The Post. "Hey, shit happens. What can I say about it? Shit happens. He's a young guy."

Celtics owner Wyc Grousbeck said the "players on the Celtics have been explicitly warned, this year, to obey the team and league gun prohibition as well as state laws. We take this very seriously, and will act accordingly once the facts have been determined."

And don't be talking about "so what." Shawnna is hot right now. She sent an email to Miss Info confirming the rumors that's she's off DTP and working with Remy Ma and Jacki-O, even though she just got finshed talking all this mess about how she don't do "girl groups" and how her and Luda was putting a record out this summer and how she was gonna make him grow his hair back.

He May Be Buried But His Funeral Still Isn't Paid For

The trust handling James Brown's estate owes more than $70,000 for his elaborate funeral and care of his body for nearly three months before it was laid to rest in March, according to the funeral director who handled the soul singer's arrangements.
"I'm just waiting on them to get some of this mess straightened out," said Charles Reid, manager of the C.A. Reid Funeral Home in Augusta, Ga., which handled Brown's funeral. "I really haven't pushed the issue, even though I'd like to have my money."
Some of the funeral costs have already been paid and trustees have mailed a cheque to Reid this week covering the outstanding balance, Brown's longtime adviser and trustee Buddy Dallas said Wednesday.
"It was the children that ran up a funeral bill of over $150,000, not the trustees," Dallas said. "We've done our very best to do what we could to accommodate the creditors. There's no great big pile of money or surplus of money just lying around."

Joe Frazier Suing His Daughter

Former heavyweight champion Joe Frazier has sued his daughter for the return of his contracts, product endorsements and other business papers.
Frazier is financially strapped at 63 and may be missing out on film royalties, product endorsement fees or other income promised in the contracts, his lawyers said.
Jacquelyn Frazier-Lyde _ a lawyer, judicial candidate and sometime boxer _ controls the documents because she served as her father's lawyer and business adviser from 1989-2004, according to the lawsuit.
"I wouldn't want to harass her, my daughter," Frazier said Tuesday by phone from Toronto, where he was appearing at a festival. "I brought her here in this world and gave her the best of everything. I love her."
He said he doesn't know why she might be keeping the records.
"I don't talk to her," Frazier said. "All I'm asking is for the papers, that's all."
The suit charges that Frazier-Lyde has failed to explain where the records are now and refused to accept a certified March 2 letter demanding their return.
A call to her law office in North Philadelphia rang unanswered Tuesday, and there was no immediate reply to phone and e-mail messages left with her judicial campaign. Frazier-Lyde is campaigning for a seat on Philadelphia's Municipal Court.
The suit was filed April 4 in Philadelphia Common Pleas Court.
Frazier-Lyde's campaign Web site plays up her lineage, noting she is the "daughter of former World Heavyweight Champion 'Smokin' Joe Frazier and Florence Frazier."
The divorced Joe Frazier lives alone and makes "under six figures" while managing expenses that include child support for at least one of his 11 children, according to lawyer Michael P. Kelly and manager Les Wolff.
Wolff vowed that more suits will follow against others who may have defrauded Frazier.
"He has been swindled and mismanaged," said Wolff, Frazier's agent for the past three years. The ex-champion now largely derives his income from appearance fees, Wolff said.
Kelly, who filed the suit, said he wants to know where Frazier's earnings have gone.
"This guy made a lot of money, was the heavyweight champion of the world, and he doesn't have much. So what happened to it?" Kelly asked.

Sounds Like A Set Up

Police investigate shooting at Piston Flip Murray's home

Mike Martindale / The Detroit NewsTROY -- Police are investigating an incident in which two masked men approached Detroit Piston Flip Murray outside his home early Monday and fired three gunshots into his residence. Murray, 27, told police he was returning to his home, in the 1000 block of Lorenzo, about 1:30 a.m. Monday after being at a Detroit nightclub. Murray left the front door to his home open for a 25-year-old woman friend who was following him home in her own vehicle.The woman was approached from behind by two masked men as she walked to the front door."She was told to be quiet but screamed and ran inside and hid," said Scherlinck. "That brought him (Murray) down to the door where he was instructed to move towards the door by one of the gunmen and instead, he slammed it shut on them."Murray retreated to another part of the house and called 911 as three gunshots were heard outside, Scherlinck said. Two gunshots went into the front door and one pierced a window near the door. No one was injured, police said.Police arrived a few minutes later and the gunmen were gone. The woman, who initially ran from the house, returned and was also interviewed by police. Scherlinck said she corroborated Murray's recollection of events.Murray told police that shortly after he came home he noticed a light-colored, possibly tan sedan pull into the parking lot of a nearby landscaping business. A police tracking dog followed a scent from Murray's home to that location where it is believed someone stepped into a vehicle and drove off.Troy police declined to name the Detroit club that Murray visited before the shooting.Anyone with information about the incident, or who may have seen anything unusual in the Lorenzo-Rochester Road area early Monday morning is asked to call police at (248) 524-3477.Murray signed a two-year, $3.6 million contract with the Pistons last July.

Buckwild Host Going To Jail

Did you ever watch that show on the Playboy channel called Buckwild, where Snoop Dogg and this guy named Ken Francis followed rappers around to strip clubs and stuff? Well you should have. Maybe if the show had been more successful, Ken wouldn't be going to jail for smuggling Ecstasy! Dude had a little modeling agency on the side where prosecutors said he took part in a drug smuggling ring that involved recruiting couriers to travel to Belgium and the Netherlands to pick up packages containing Ecstasy tablets. The couriers told authorities they were told they were smuggling diamonds. The packages actually contained tens of thousands of pills that were brought into Los Angeles and New York in 2000 and 2001, said Assistant U.S. Attorney Cheryl Murphy. Before he was sentenced Monday, Francis told U.S. District Judge Manuel Real that he "got involved in this whole drug-smuggling conspiracy by wanting to start my own business, which was a modeling business." He said he initially thought the models were traveling to Europe for photo shoots, but he later learned they were smuggling drugs.

After being informed that she was present, the Pastor, Bishop Noel Jones, invited her to participate in a mini-concert of sorts.
Cole was the last of the plentiful talent asked to perform impromptu at the 11:00 a.m. service (including gospel group The Singletons and Olie Woodson of the Temptations) at the Gardena, CA sanctuary.
Both the congregation’s reception of the singer and her delivery were unexpected. The situation was awkward before she sang a note.
In addition to the Bishop mistakenly introducing her with the wrong first name, she had a “wardrobe malfunction” that she was not aware of. Wearing a short dress with thin straps, apparently Cole bore more skin than was deemed appropriate for the church. When a female member of the church attempted to cover her with a shawl, the back of her dress was accidentally lifted. According to witnesses in the choir stand, Cole’s backside was exposed. The woman assisting Cole managed to cover her rear just before she stepped out to sing.
She reintroduced herself as a recording artist and asked everyone to pray that she keeps the faith to sing the right messages to the yourg women she reaches with her music. Without pause she broke into an undigestable version of “His Eye Is on the Sparrow" which got progressively worse each time she tried to make adjustments.
The audience was restless. “Take your time,” one random voice from the packed to the brim sanctuary in Gardena, CA chimed. “You can do it Keyshia!” called another.
Unable to find the correct key, her vocals were shaky, out of tune and far from the quality of “Love,” her first mega hit that showcases her as an able vocalist. At one point she stopped to clear her throat and apologized to the audience. The musicians chased after her to find the right key and couldn't as she barely finished one verse in an shapeless a capella.
Performing to sold out venues as a concert headliner and as the star of her on reality show on BET: “KEYSHIA COLE: THE WAY IT IS” Cole is accustomed to being in control and perhaps is most comfortable when she has had time to prepare. Giving up in middle of the verse she apologized and lingered for a moment before she was ushered off the stage as the filled-to-the-brim audience looked on, applauding lightly.
Cole had been offered an opportunity to sing at the church the week before Easter and did not accept.
As if he were a mind-reader, Jones chided those in the audience who were judging the singer's appearance. He said he knew what he was doing and hoped some of the power and anointing that preceded her performance would impact her for the next time she took to the stage. She was too embarrassed to remain in the service. Allegedly, Cole’s manager asked the bishop not to run her performance on the national broadcast of the service, “Fresh Oil” which airs on BET.

Don't Quote Me On This

You know I love reading gossip on message boards right? It may not be true, but it sure is juicy. I believe every word of it

......What has never really been mentioned is Beyonce’s little romance with Chico Debarge.. YES… CHICO DEBARGE.. they use to date back when she was with Destiny’s Child. It was all very secretive. The girls would stay at the Beverly Wilshire when they came to Los Angeles – The Wilshire is not far from a small boutique hotel where Chico DeBarge was a regular. Ms. Beyonce would slip over to his hotel for late night visits and leave in the AM. This was an upper crust hotel so not too many of the workers knew who she or he was, a few of them did and one night they heard them having very loud sex. One time Mr. Knowles came to the hotel ENRAGED because he found out Beyonce had been sneaking away at night to spend time with low class, jail bird Chico Debarge. He put an end to that relationship with the QUICKNESS for two reasons....1- He thought Chico was low class and he knew Beyonce was on her way to being a superstar. Beyonce didn’t care because she was in love, but her dad set her straight. 2 – She got pregnant with his child and well… She was deep into it with Chico.. her first real love.

Mike Tyson Trial Date Set For August

A trial date has been set in Mike Tyon's latest skirmish with the law. Mike could be facing seven years after being ordered to stand trial for possession of cocaine and driving under the influence after he was stopped by police in Scottsdale, Arizona.

In other Mike Tyson news, Mike put his Paradise Valley, Arizona home on the market for 2.3 million dollars. He paid 2.1 million for it in 2005. It's initial listing was $2.45 million but Mike dropped the price after it sat on the market for 3 months. They say his neighbors couldn't be happier he's leaving because Mike built a big pigeon coop in his backyard that attracted dozens of birds to the area.

Can you image all the bird shit?

Kelis Gets $25,000 To Do Two Songs

So Kelis was supposed to perform at a Palm Springs White Party and she got paid $25,000.00 in cash up front. Why she show up 2 hours late and only do two songs? They even had some chick on the stage lip-syncing Bossy. The party promoters are pissed, talking shit about they're making sure to report the cash payment to the IRS, cause they know Kelis won't. In Kelis's defense, her rep released this statement: "There were many missteps behind the scenes which created a less than suitable environment for any artist to perform. Because of her love for her fans, Kelis made the decision to take the stage, against any advice not to do so."

Warrant Issued For DMX Arrest

Judges in two cities issued bench warrants Wednesday for the arrest of rapper DMX, who failed to show up in court for either of his pending traffic cases.
"In truth, I do not know where he is," said Murray Richman, lawyer for the 36-year-old rapper whose real name is Earl Simmons. "Why would he be hiding out from a damn traffic infraction?"
He said the rapper, whose albums include "It's Dark and Hell is Hot" and "Flesh of My Flesh, Blood of My Blood," was in Arizona on Tuesday but had promised to appear Wednesday in White Plains and Yonkers, both north of New York City.
"He said he missed a flight," Richman said. "He's always missing flights."

Pac Man Out For 07 Season

The NFL ain't playing ya’ll. Adam "Pac Man" Jones has been suspended for one year without pay following his latest dust up with the law. That's $1,292,500! Pac has been interviewed by police 10 times for various incidents including a shooting at a Las Vegas strip club that left one man paralyzed from the neck down. NFL commissioner Roger Goodell, in a letter to Pac said, "Your conduct has brought embarrassment and ridicule upon yourself, your club, and the NFL, and has damaged the reputation of players throughout the league. You have put in jeopardy an otherwise promising NFL career, and have risked both your own safety and the safety of others through your off-field actions. In each of these respects, you have engaged in conduct detrimental to the NFL and failed to live up to the standards expected of NFL players. Taken as a whole, this conduct warrants significant sanction."
His mother was quoted as saying "I just pray that this can be changed. This is not fair for him. It's just not fair."

Take a good look, cause this family is dunzo. The divorce has been approved and will become final April 24. During the court proceedings, Whitney testified that she did not need spousal or child support and that the couple's 14-year-old daughter, Bobbi Kristina, could not depend on Bobby. "He's unreliable," Whitney told the judge. "If he says he's going to come, sometimes he does. Usually he doesn't."

Bobby's attorney, Ram Cogan, said he will seek to overturn the judge's decision.

Fat Bitter Bitch

I totally didn't watch one episode of I Love New York. I don't know why, just didn't give a shit get around to it. I'll probably catch it all in one fell swoop when they run 'em back to back, but anyway, remember that radio interview when Hot 97 Dj Miss Jones hung up on Miss New York because she was lying about graduating from Syracuse University? Here's what New York had to say about it:

"She was asking me very personal questions about myself and I wasn't going to answer her honestly, because I felt like she wasn't really interested in my life. She was trying to attack me. So, of course, I just played with her. And her being a radio personality, she knew I wasn't being honest. I didn't care, I knew I had to get through that interview and remain professional. But I will say this: I think she's a fat, bitter bitch. She would have loved to have gotten into it with me. Who wouldn't want to get into it with me? That could have boosted her career that never went anywhere. She was an aspiring singer that never did anything. Miss Jones sucks. She gained about 80 lbs. She looks terrible. "
