Don't Believe The Hype

I have read on 50-11 message boards about Irv Gotti airing out Ashanti on the Wendy Williams show. Everything I read said Irv was bragging about cheating on his wife with Ashanti while high on ecstasy and Viagra. The actual interview wasn't nearly that juicy. It was all Wendy, and you know how she is. She was pushing and pushing and Irv barely gave up anything. He just didn't deny he and Shani fucked, and said that he was disappointed she didn't stand by him during the whole Murder Inc. money laundering trial. Listen for yourself here.

Davon Boddie Speaks

Michael Vick's cousin Davon Boddie called into Hot 107.9 in Atlanta to explain his part in the whole dog fighting scandal. Davon said he was in the parking lot of the Royal Suite nightclub when he got caught with three ounces of weed. He said the cops lied on him and said he had more than that in order to get the search warrant on the house. that's funny, everything I read said he had three ounces and why did he give Vick's address as "his" house anyway? Then Day Day said animal control officers showed up at the house before the cops even got there, but admitted he wasn't actually there to see it, but said that's "what he'd heard". He said that the Fed used him to get to Vick, saying they already had info on the dogfighting. Day Day admits he hasn't spoken to Vick since the bust and conceded that none of this would have happened if it wasn't for him and he did eventually apologize, but not before laying down his "it wasn't entirely my fault" theories. When the Dj asked if he wanted to say anything to Vick, since they haven't spoken since this all came out, Davon said, "Yeah, I wanna tell him to keep his head up" and then he asked that the people of Atlanta stick by Vick and said that if Vick ever got to play for Atlanta again, he [Davon] promised he [Vick] was going to bring the Superbowl ring home to Atlanta.

No Charges Filed Against DMX

None of the dogs found at DMX's Arizona house showed any signs of having been in any fights and X did have a guy taking care of his dogs, but the guy said he told X he would only do it until he found someone else, so when it was time for the dude to go on vacation, he left. He did say X was sending money for food, but that's beside the point. Dude said he wasn't babysitting no dogs! Also, the white powdery substance found in X's house was not a narcotic. Cops did, however, find a useable amount of weed.

Bobby Signed A Pre-Nup

Bobby Brown is trying to renegotiate visitation rights and possibly a big alimony settlement in his divorce from Whitney Houston. Bobby says Whitney blocked his number from her phone and won't let their daughter Bobby Kris return his phone calls. Bobby also claims to have been virtually homeless while paying nearly $10,000.00 for Whitney and Bobby Kris to stay in a hotel during Whitney's last rehab stay. They are scheduled back in divorce court on August 31, and while Bobby might get cut a little slack on the visitation tip, he can forget about getting his hands on any of Whitney's money. He signed a pre-nuptial agreement that says he’s not entitled to alimony or support.

Backstory From The Comment Section

The other day I wondered aloud what the backstory was on the whole Russell stepping down from Phat fashions and Kimora being promoted to creative director thing. Well, a snitch with a chip on it's shoulder dropped us this jewel.

The 'back story' is here --> http://www.secinfo.com/d1zJxf.upb.htm#124p

This be what we call a '10-K' financial statement for Kellwood Company - that's right, the same company Russell sold Phat Fashions to for $140 million in 2004.

Take a few minutes to read and you'll see that Kellwood lost mad dough in 2005 , had to restructure and on top of that, their net earnings for 2006 was only about 1/3 of 2004's earnings.

Sounds to me like Russ cashed out right on time. Kimora-stans be damned.

Next Up --> Black People Learn to See The Forest for The Trees - A Special Report

Geez, you don't have to get snippy about it!

Hell, I thought my name was “nigger” for a long time.

Do you remember KeKe Wyatt? She had that one song then stabbed her husband on Christmas day then disapeared for some years? Well, she's got some new music coming out so you know the deal. Time for some controversial statements.

Essence.com: What is the biggest misconception you think people have about you?

K.W.: People always say I look really different in person and ask, “What are you mixed with?” Then when I tell them they say, “I thought you were all Black!” I get that a lot because my mother is Caucasian and my father is Indian and Black.

Essence.com: Do you identify as a Black woman?

K.W.: I am a woman. I ain’t like Tiger Woods. The truth is I’m 25 percent Black. I claim to be Black, Indian and I claim to be White. I’m all of it. If you ask me, “What are you?” I’m going to say, “I’m a woman.” I stand up for all women. I don’t care if you’re Black, White, Chinese, whatever. I don’t know what my mama put on my birth certificate…. (Laughs)

Essence.com: So did your mom ever discuss race with you?

K.W.: I know when I was a little girl she would never let me and my brother watch movies that criticized Black people or where White people treated Black people really disgusting, like Roots. She didn’t want us to see how White people treated Black people because she probably thought we might start hating White people.

Essence.com: Was she afraid of how you and your brothers might perceive her?

K.W.: I used to tell her we’re not blind to the fact because we’re sitting there listening to people call her a “n----- lover” or accusing my daddy of being a “sell out” because he’s with a White chick. I told her she didn’t have to hide that stuff from us because we did see and hear about it, and kids did treat us differently.

Essence.com: Did she ever talk to you about the N-word?

K.W.: My mom was raised around African-American people all her life. She can cornrow and everything. All she knows is the African-American way of living, because her stepfather was Black and she was raised by his family. She will use the N-word like it’s going out of style. I say, “Mama you can’t just go around using the N-word,” and she’s like, “I don’t give a damn. I say what I want to say. N---a ain’t no color, it’s an ignorant person.”

Essence.com: But that word is still synonymous with Black folk. So you couldn’t watch Roots, but she used the N-word around you and your siblings?

K.W.: No, she doesn’t say “n---er,” she says “n---a” and says it in front of everybody, every day. She has always said it since I was a little girl. Hell, I thought my name was “n---er” for a long time. We never thought about it being a bad word.

Essence.com: Wow. So she didn’t want you to watch Roots, but she referred to you and your brother with the N-word? Do you think it’s time for her to stop using it?

K.W.: People should feel free to say what they want to say as long as they don’t use it to hurt other people. I don’t think “n---a” is a bad word. I don’t think it’s directed toward people of color. Now, the word “n---er,” if you call me that, I will kick your a-- because now you’re trying to be nasty and hurt my feelings. It depends on how you’re using it.

Essence.com: But do you really think it’s enough of a distinction between the two to make exceptions?

K.W.: Yes, because back in the day they were saying it with the “er” on the end. I think it’s just like saying Negro, because the word in the dictionary it means “ignorant person.”

Essence.com: Yes, and many people still believe that “ignorant people” equals “Black people.”

K.W.: At the end of the day, you’re the one who is ignorant. I don’t think people should use the word so much. I hate how everyone thinks that Black people are beneath them, even Asians, Whites and ...Mexicans. No, I’m not all Black, but I definitely stand up for the Black people. They’ve had it rough, they can’t help the fact that they’re skin is dark, or that their nose is a lil’ wider or that the curls in their hair might be tighter than yours. I don’t think that it’s fair for people who look like me with the light skin, pointy nose and the pretty hair to think that dark-complected people are any less than them. Who am I? I’m not better than you. I breathe the same air and I bleed the same blood. Nobody is better than anybody else. We are all in this struggle called life. I think brown skin is beautiful because people like me have to lay out in the sun to try and look like you. My best friends are Black—Black-Black—and I think that’s so beautiful. I think that’s why I decided to make my children Black. I could have married a White dude or got with a White man and my kids probably would have looked completely White. That’s not what I wanted. Now, they can go outside and get a for-real tan (laughs). I think Black is beautiful. I stand for the African-American people until the day I die.

Vick Agrees To Rat Out Dog Fighting Rings

I just heard this on the news. As part of Michael Vick's plea agreement, he's going to undergo "debriefings" and give up information on North and South Carolina dog fighting rings. He has also agreed to take lie detector tests to verify his information.

Lien On Joe And Katherin's House

The latest Michael Jackson lawsuit got the family all messed up.
Mike just got another lien placed on his two primary residences, Neverland Valley Ranch in Los Olivos, Calif., and his parents’ home on Hayvenhurst Avenue in Encino, Calif.
F. Marc Schaffel, Jackson’s former business partner and a sometime gay porno producer, won a judgment against Jackson two weeks ago in Santa Monica for $559,305.25. This was one of the outcomes of a lawsuit Schaffel brought against Jackson in November 2004 for $4 million.
This time, though, Schaffel’s lawyer, Howard King, convinced a judge to issue a lien on both properties until Jackson comes up with the money, plus hundreds of thousands of dollars in fees.

Foxy Trying To Get Out Of Jail

Foxy Brown filed suit against the Correction Department yesterday, arguing that a judge's decision to lock her up for alleged probation violations was "arbitrary" and "unlawful" - but another judge quickly KO'd the petition.
The three-months pregnant Brown, whose real name is Inga Marchand, was tossed behind bars by Judge Melissa Jackson last Wednesday, pending a full hearing Sept. 7 on the alleged violations.
The filing said Brown is "suffering greatly" at Rikers Island.
Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Laura Ward denied Brown's bid for freedom.

Travis Henry Needs A Vasectomy

Or at the very least a box of condoms.

Henry, 28, has fathered nine children by nine women in at least four Southern states and has been ordered by various judges to provide child support for seven of them, according to court records involving one child living in DeKalb County.DeKalb Superior Court Judge Clarence Seeliger this week ordered Henry to provide $3,000 a month for the Lithonia boy he fathered out of wedlock three years ago with Jameshia Beacham, now 29.Henry isn't the most thrifty guy, according to court records, so the judge wants to ensure payment by establishing an unusual $250,000 trust that Henry must fund by next spring.Seeliger wrote that the football player displayed "bad judgment in his spending habits," dropping $100,000 for a car and $146,000 for jewelry. Meanwhile, Henry fell behind on support payments for his child with Beacham that were mandated by a previous order. Threatened with jail, he borrowed $9,800 from his former team, the Tennessee Titans, to pay the bill, according to court records. The trust ensures Beacham will get timely payment if the pro player falls behind on his installments again. Yet the trust could be a sticking point for Henry, who could appeal.His lawyer, Shiel Edlin, said that to his knowledge the trust would be without precedent in Georgia. A quarter-million dollars is a lot of money, even for Henry, Edlin said. "He has some concerns and he's weighing his options."

Beacham could not be reached for comment. Her lawyer, Robert Wellon, said he asked that the trust be set up because Henry rarely made the payments mandated by an earlier order, though they were $800 less a month. Wellon said there was testimony establishing that Henry received a $1 million bonus earlier this year but quickly spent most of it, buying, among other things, a Mercedes and gold jewelry."My argument was, if he makes wise investments, other than in gold chains, then he should be able to make the payments," Wellon said.Edlin, though, said Henry collected much less than $1 million after taxes, and he said much of it went to debts. "He doesn't have any money," Edlin said. "The guy has significant financial issues."Records show that Henry's children are scattered across both the American and National Football Conferences — including Florida, North Carolina, Tennessee and Georgia. Wellon said Henry talked about gathering them together to watch him at training camp. Indeed, part of the custody arrangement Henry reached with Beacham requires two weekend visits when he is playing pro ball.Edlin said Henry wants to be a good parent. "I know these are a lot of kids, and there might be some questions about it," he said, "but he's a really committed father."

Polow Don Won No Black Women

At first I wasn't even gonna entertain this fool, but since dirt is super slow today, here goes. Polow Da Don is an Atlanta based music producer who's worked with all kinds of people; Ludacris, Jamie Foxx, Fergie, Kelis, Gwen Stefani...you get the picture. Anyway, you know how some guys should just look cute and keep quiet? Polow is one of them. Earlier this year Polow declared himself the "king of white girls" and here's some insight into why he feels that way.


AllHipHop.com: Now, you call yourself the "King of All White Girls." Elaborate on that for me.

Polow Da Don: Just the “King of the White Girls.” I ain't self proclaimed but I run with it. [Laughs] There was a stage in my life where I went crazy with dating white women. I have nothing against black women, but they’re raised differently. White women are raised to respect and serve their men. Black women are taught to question [their men]. Black women look at submission as being weak. White women look at submission as being a woman. And anyone who has a problem with this statement is ignorant. Just look at the divine order; it goes man, woman, child.

And to think I read on Wikipedia that Polow dropped out of Morehouse in his freshman year. He should have stayed.

Michael Vick Word For Word

Just add the sad eyes.

"For most of my life, I've been a football player, not a public speaker, so, you know, I really don't know, you know, how to say what I really want to say.
You know, I understand it's -- it's important or not important, you know, as far as what you say but how you say things. So, you know, I take this opportunity just to speak from the heart.
First, I want to apologize, you know, for all the things that -- that I've done and that I have allowed to happen. I want to personally apologize to commissioner Goodell, Arthur Blank, coach Bobby Petrino, my Atlanta Falcons teammates, you know, for our -- for our previous discussions that we had. And I was not honest and forthright in our discussions, and, you know, I was ashamed and totally disappointed in myself to say the least.
I want to apologize to all the young kids out there for my immature acts and, you know, what I did was, what I did was very immature so that means I need to grow up.
I totally ask for forgiveness and understanding as I move forward to bettering Michael Vick the person, not the football player.
I take full responsibility for my actions. For one second will I sit right here -- not for one second will I sit right here and point the finger and try to blame anybody else for my actions or what I've done.
I'm totally responsible, and those things just didn't have to happen. I feel like we all make mistakes. It's just I made a mistake in using bad judgment and making bad decisions. And you know, those things, you know, just can't happen.
Dog fighting is a terrible thing, and I did reject it.
I'm upset with myself, and, you know, through this situation I found Jesus and asked him for forgiveness and turned my life over to God. And I think that's the right thing to do as of right now.
Like I said, for this -- for this entire situation I never pointed the finger at anybody else, I accepted responsibility for my actions of what I did and now I have to pay the consequences for it. But in a sense, I think it will help, you know, me as a person. I got a lot to think about in the next year or so.
I offer my deepest apologies to everybody out in there in the world who was affected by this whole situation. And if I'm more disappointed with myself than anything it's because of all the young people, young kids that I've let down, who look at Michael Vick as a role model. And to have to go through this and put myself in this situation, you know, I hope that every young kid out there in the world watching this interview right now who's been following the case will use me as an example to using better judgment and making better decisions.
Once again, I offer my deepest apologies to everyone. And I will redeem myself. I have to.
So I got a lot of down time, a lot of time to think about my actions and what I've done and how to make Michael Vick a better person.
Thank you."

Not What You Want To Hear In Court

U.S. District Judge Henry E. Hudson, who asked: "Are you entering the plea of guilty to a conspiracy charge because you are in fact guilty?" Vick replied, "Yes, sir." Hudson emphasized he is not bound by sentencing guidelines and can impose the maximum sentence of up to five years in prison. "You're taking your chances here. You'll have to live with whatever decision I make," said Hudson. Michael will be sentenced on December 10th.

Chapelle On Why He Left Comedy Central

You know how people in show business say it's not what you know, but who you blow? Well, Dave Chapelle did a show in Atlanta this weekend and I heard he spoke on the whole walking away from 50 million dollars over at Comdey Central thing and said, "Once you get to the big money you meet the real white people." Then they said Dave was like, "The money was in a big pile and then a dude stood over it, unzipped his pants, let his dick out and looked at me." He's a better one than me, cause I'd do ALL KINDS of nasty thangs for 50 mil, but that's just me.

Mel's Former Lover Speaks

Mel B's former lesbian lover is speaking out about Mel's quickie marriage to Stephen Belafonte. Christa Parker, who met Mel at their daughters' school and introduced her to Elizabeth Rodriguez, who they began having threesomes with, says, "Mel is so vulnerable. I'm very worried about her. I hope she's happy and she hasn't made a mistake. I just don't want to see her hurt. She longs for intimacy with anyone she can find. Mel is very clingy. She needs constant attention and companionship. When she was seeing Eddie, she stopped calling me so often. But once that ended she was back on the phone to me every day." Christina is so fucking fake! She claims she "only had sex with a woman once before", yet she had no problem finding someone else to bump clams with her and Mel, and now she's selling Mel out with this phoney "show of concern" interview!? I bet Eddie paid her ass to squeal!

Michael Vick Suspended Indefinitely

Plea deal or no plea deal, the ruling from the NFL just came down. Vick is out indefinitely.

Below is NFL commissioner Roger Goodell's letter to Vick:

Your admitted conduct was not only illegal, but also cruel and reprehensible. Your team, the NFL, and NFL fans have all been hurt by your actions.Your plea agreement and the plea agreements of your co-defendants also demonstrate your significant involvement in illegal gambling. Even if you personally did not place bets, as you contend, your actions in funding the betting and your association with illegal gambling both violate the terms of your NFL Player Contract and expose you to corrupting influences in derogation of one of the most fundamental responsibilities of an NFL player. You have engaged in conduct detrimental to the welfare of the NFL and have violated the league's Personal Conduct Policy.I will review the status of your suspension following the conclusion of the legal proceedings. As part of that review, I will take into account a number of factors, including the resolution of any other charges that may be brought against you, whether in Surry County, Virginia, or other jurisdictions, your conduct going forward, the specifics of the sentence imposed by Judge Hudson and any related findings he might make, and the extent to which you are truthful and cooperative with law enforcement and league staff who are investigating these matters.I have advised the Falcons that, with my decision today, they are no longer prohibited from acting and are now free to assert any claims or remedies available to them under the Collective Bargaining Agreement or your NFL Player Contract.

Vick's Daddy Sells Him Out

Michael Vick is expected to enter a plea that claims he took NO part in any dog killing or betting on dog fights. He will only plead guilty to the charge of interstate commerce for the purpose of dogfighting. His father, however, tells a different story. In a recent interview, Michael Boddie Boddie, Boddie, where have I heard that name before? Oh yeah, it's the same last name as the cousin who lead the cops to Vick's Virginia Mansion on the drug raid that started this whole mess says, "I wish they would stop sugarcoating this. This is Mike's thing and he knows it." Mr. Boddie goes on to say that Mike has been organizing dog fights since his college days when he used to hold dogfights in the family's garage back in Newport News, VA right before he entered the league. Boddie says he told Mike to cut that shit out or at least hold the fights at someone else's house, but Mike wouldn't listen. Boddie lives in an apartment, paid for by Mike, in Duluth, GA and says he hasn't worked since 2003 and that Mike sends him a couple hundred dollars every few weeks. He said he asked Mike to give him 1 million dollars spread out over 12 years, to which Mike said in my Miss Sofia voice hell no. Then he asked for $700,000.00 which was also turned down. Now he's threatening to write a book. Mr. Boddie is pissed off because he doesn't like the way Mike and his mother portray him as an absentee father. Boddie claims he never left his family's side, saying he may have been drunk or high sometimes, but he was there. WTH! Mike paid for his father's rehab stay in 2004. You would think he would keep his mouth shut for fear of losing his apartment and couple hundred a week right? Well, whispers out of Virginia say Mike's money been funny for a while now, so I guess pops feel like he ain't got nothing to lose.

Paying Off That Girl Mighta Backfired

When all the pre-trial hearings and stuff was going down, the judge in R Kelly's child pornography case originally ruled the video allegedly showing R sexing the underage girl and making rain on her could not be shown in court because he felt it would re-victimize the girl. But now, since the girl in question is expected to testify that it ain't her in the tape, the judge has reconsidered and is allowing the tape to be shown to both the jury and the media, because since "it's not her", no re-victimization will be taking place.

What's Worse Than An Accused Attempted Murderer Crashing Your Party?

Having her show up in the same dress as the party girl! Yeah, so, Vivica Fox tried to celebrate her 43rd birthday the other night at club Sol in New York and things kept going from bad to worse. First, she was promised a Rolls Royce Phantom to ferry her over to the party. It never showed, so she had to hitch a ride with Star Jones. Then hardly any celebs showed up to celebrate with her, save for a few C,D and E listers. Then Salignac Ma, who was explicitly asked to stay away because of her recent arrest for attempted murder, showed up anyway! And although Remy took plenty of pictures on the red carpet, wearing the same dress as Vivica, she was denied entry at the door. And to top it all off, Viv's appearance fee check for $2,500 bounced because it was issued on a closed account and the guy who wrote it was so mad that Vivee blabbed about the bounced check, he snitched that Viv was drinking at the party, violating conditions of her DUI probation!

Maybe Latrell Should Have Taken That 21 Million

In 2004, on the last year of his contract with the Minnesota Timberwolves, Latrell Sprewell was offered a 3 year, 21 million dollar contract extension, which he famously turned down, claiming he had a "family to feed" and that he was worth more than 7 mill a year. Fast forward: Latrell hasn't paid pro ball since, his live in baby mama is suing him for 200 million dollars in palimony for breaking up with her, and the yacht he lived on to avoid living with the baby mama just got repossessed. Good luck with that, L.

Tyra and Benny Break Up

Benny Medina is no longer Tyra Bank's manager. Word is she got tired of his divalicous ways. They say his perk list was bigger than hers! Everything from private jets to votive candles that the staff had to light before he got to the set of America's Next Top Model. Snitches say," He forgot who the star was." Tyra's people deny any bad blood saying, "We have a good relationship with Benny, and we appreciate his contributions to the show. He will continue as an executive consultant on the show."

Troubled Former NBA Player Dies In Train Crash

Former Minnesota Timberwolf Eddie Griffin died last week when his SUV collided with a train. There was no identification in the truck and his body was so badly burned he had to be identified by dental records. Eddie ran into a gang of trouble in years past, ranging from being dropped from his team for failing drug tests, to crashing his car while, umm, pleasuring himself. Some suspect his driving into the oncoming train may have been suicide.

Quit Trying To Save Mel B

In an interview in Hello magazine, Mel says she knows all about her husband's past and it's no big deal. She says, "I know everything that he's done. He went through group therapy and counseling, but he's fully aware of what he's done." She added that the media are "trying to make him out to be this aggressive, violent, woman batterer - and he's not".

And Baby Makes Three

Add another person to the list of kids fathered by James Brown. Last month twelve people took paternity tests to prove their lineage to James Brown and yesterday one more turned up positive. That makes three kids acknowledged by the James Brown estate after his death. No word yet on whether or not lil James Brown Jr., the child James allegedly fathered with his companion Tomi Rae Hynie, is James' kid.

For The Last Time, Eve Is Not Gay

Gay blogger Clay Cane interviewed Eve for the gay magazine HX and he asked her about those pesky gay rumors that have been dogging her since she hit the scene. Here's and excerpt from the interview.

Who’s the most important gay person in your life?
I don’t have any best [gay] friends or a “talk on the phone” kind of thing. It’s more business—friendship business.
Do you get approached a lot by women?
Yeah, I used to more when I first came out. I’ve had people tell me straight up and down that I was gay—I still get it from people. I get more accusations than I actually do get hit on now.
Did it make you uncomfortable?
Gay women are way more aggressive than men—I will definitely say that. [Laughs] But it doesn’t bother me. I’ve never been disrespected in any way. If I’m like, “Yo, I get it, but I don’t swing that way,” then it’s all love.

She Ain't Exactly Known For Being Polite

Slow news day people. Bare with me. I have a really high bullshit meter but since I didn't have nothing to post all weekend, Miss New York makes the cut. Anyway, girlfriend went to dinner at some resturant in New York city this past weekend and her waitress accused her of being racist and a rude, nasty, pig. The waitress said, "I went to her table and told her I think she's so cute and funny. Then I went to shake her hand and she looked me up and down, laughed at me and said she had a cold. But immediately after, she shook the hand of another waitress, who is black." The waitress also said that New York refused to be served by them, because she said that someone always tries to drug her drinks when she's not looking, so New York would send her bodyguard to get her drinks. I know, so what, right? The first person who posts "Next!" is gonna get it!

Now What, Dummies?

Yeah so, you know how all Mike Vick's boys turned state's evidence against him in his federal dog fighting case in exchange for immunity and lighter sentences? Yeah well, AFTER they made all their damning testimonies, the state of Virginia says they’re going to file their OWN charges based on the Fed testimonies and will not grant the same immunities to the turn-coat defendants, so those fools are going to get jail time anyway. Suckkkkkers.

Wonder Why You Ain't Heard From Scary Lately?

I heard Eddie finally got fed up with her trashing him all over town and slapped her ass with a cease and desist order. According to sources Eddie sent Mel at letter that reads in part: “You have been engaging in a pattern of disseminating disparaging, negative and defamatory statements about Mr. Murphy, portraying him in a false and outrageous light in order to pressure Mr. Muprhy to capitulate to your highly unreasonable extortionate demands. We demand that you immediately cease and desist from this wrongful conduct.” The alleged letter goes on to say, "in a calculated effort to smear his reputation, thereby hoping to induce him to accede to outrageous extortionate demands if he wants you to stop your dissemination of negative statements." The letter also claims, “On Ms. Brown’s behalf, Ms. Allred has demanded that [Eddie] my client not only pay very substantial child support, but that he also buy a $9 million house in Malibu and pay for all associated expenses for Ms. Brown to reside there for free for the next 18 years.” The letter also claims the Eddie was told if these demands were met everybody would, "shut up".

They Giving Away Tickets In Nashville?

You know I be lurking around on a gang of message boards right? Anyway, I read on this one board that Beyonce didn't sell out her Nashville show so the radio stations started giving away tickets and it went from tickets going to the "ninth caller" to the "next ten people" to call the station can get it. I also heard they was giving away tickets around the stadium. So if B don't sell out in your town, hang around outside. You might get lucky.

Lil Flip Cleared In Credit Card Scam

In July, Lil Flip got arrested for credit card fraud when an airline ticket was purchased in his name on an unauthorized American Express card. The charges have since been dropped.

Anyway, Arlene says Foxy came into the pharmarcy where she works as a cashier and told her, "You are a lowlife bitch. Bitch you work in a pharmacy.

Well Foxy's side of the story is that Arlene came up to her and said, "Now that we alone bitch, let's fight" and that she[Foxy] pushed her [Arlene] out of her way and that her Blackberry may have brushed against her face. Arlene's version is that Foxy ran up on her eight days after the pharmacy incident talking about "I hate you bitch!" and attacked her. All I know is, there should be some video footage of the drug store incident, right? And if this shit is true, Fox bout to get her probation revoked and we gon get what we all want. 6 to 8 months without a Foxy post!

However, due to conflicting witness testimony, the hearing has been pushed back to November 23. Remy's lawyer, Ivan Fisher, said "no view of the events that has surfaced publicly is accurate," but he declined to say how Barnes-Joseph, 23, was shot.

Michael Vick Nearing Plea Deal

After the other three defendants in the Michael Vick dog fighting case decided to cop pleas, it's being reported that Vick's attorneys are trying to negotiate a plea deal that will limit Vick's prison time and save his NFL career. Ummm, if he's pleading guilty in any way, how can his career be saved? Mike has until the end of the week to decide whether to cop his plea or risk going to trial.

Denise Brown Says Boycott Goldman's OJ Book

Last month, a federal bankruptcy judge awarded rights to OJ Simpson's book "If I Did It" to the Goldman family to help satisfy a $38 million wrongful death judgment against Simpson. In a statement, murder victim Nicole Brown's sister Denise accused Goldman's father, Fred Goldman, and other family members of hypocrisy for publishing a book that he had called "disgusting and despicable" when Simpson first planned to publish it. Denise says she is shocked and horrifed that the Goldman's literary agent reached an agreement with Beaufort Books to publish the controversal book. She also says she can't bear the fact that her sister's two children "will have to be subjected to this step by step manual on how their mother and her friend Ron were murdered."

Isn't Torturing Small Animals The Trait Of A Serial Killer?

There's a warrant out for the arrest of Mel B's new husband, Stephen Stansbury Bellafonte because he was convicted of killing a duck in New Jersey by smashing it with a brick. Mr. Slimeball skipped town without paying his fines, and an Ocean County court spokesperson said, “A warrant has been issued over unpaid fines and costs relating to an animal control offence. He will be arrested if he returns to this area." I've also heard he's faced a string of legal actions regarding evictions from various apartments for non payment of rents. And Mel B's mother, who hasn't spoken to Mel in months, said Mel hasn't even told her she got married. Moms said she read about it on a Hollywood gossip blog!

D'Angelo Pleads Guilty To 2005 DUI

Judge Paul Cella fined D'Angelo $1,000, with $500 suspended, sentenced him to nine days in jail, all suspended, and revoked his license for 90 days on the suspended license charge. Cella also fined him $1,500, with $750 suspended, sentenced him to six months in jail, also suspended, and suspended his license for 12 months on the DUI charge. A reckless driving charge was dropped. Assistant Commonwealth’s Attorney Richard Cox said the county’s case was weakened when the star witness in the case, who was riding with D'Angelo, did not show up in court. The performer was driving a Hummer in Powhatan County when he was thrown from the vehicle. He suffered bruised ribs and contusions, according to state police.

Super Head Cusses Out Her Fans

Karrine "Superhead" Steffans has a webpage where she documents her life and reads her fan mail in video blogs. So this one chick named Sonia emailed Karrin saying she wants to "do what she does" and asking for help setting up an escort agency, and dick licker went off the girl, screaming "You don't do what I do! You do what I did!" What she did, huh? Wanna see what she did? click here. I'm warning you this is not for the faint of heart. It's got damn gross.

He tells King, "Never saw the Peedi video. They can do anything they want with a computer. I don’t even fuck with the Internet. I don’t have a MySpace page. There are like 30 pages that say they’re me, and none of ’em are. People will be like, “I hit you on the MySpace, and you ain’t accepted me as a friend.”

Mel's Man Is A Woman Beater

Mel B's new husband got arrested for beating the dog shit out of his baby mama, Nicole Contreras, in their Beverly Hills home. And speaking of Mel, she went on Larry King Live last night and repeated all that stuff she's been saying over and over, Eddie done me wrong, he don't want to see the baby, we planned this, blah, blah blah and revealed both she and Eddie got tattoos of each other's names on themselves. She refused, however, to answer any questions about money.

The plot thickens.

Cuba Gooding Likes To Kiss Boys

Ok, so there's this blogger who used to be a Hollywood publicist but now spends his time dishing dirt on celebs. This is what he said about Cuba Gooding Jr.

"It was February of 2007, during NYC Fashion Week, where I was at the club Bungalow 8 with some clients and friends and ran into actor and Oscar winner, Cuba Gooding Jr.. I was a bit intoxicated, but Cuba had a few drinks up on me. Despite his posse of girls, we chatted about a girl we both knew, whom he hooked up with often while married. Soon he went in for the kiss with me.This wasn't just any kiss, but a long kiss. He had the best lips and was actually a good kisser, aside from the fact my hand ended up on his crotch and his 'little' penis."

"His hotel room was offered for the 'after party,' but I wasn't really interested. After all this is a married man, with two kids, who not only made out with me but several girls in the same evening. This on top of having several affairs on the side."

Kelly Rowland On Her Record Sales

Yeah, according to Clark County, Nevada court records, Mel married Stephen Standsbury Belafonte on June 6. I hope she got a pre-nup. Oooo, and how come somebody said he beat the living hell of out her in front of her staff and kids? Don't quote me on that, but it certainly fits in with all the rest of this crazy bullshit.

Kim Talks About Her Breakup

Kim Porter tells OK magazine, "I'd been in an on-again, off-again relationship with Mr. Combs for about 10 years, and it came to a point where it was time for me to move on with my life. I had invested a lot of time in that relationship, and it wasn't going where it should have been going. So it was time to [end it]. Marriage was something that we discussed, but it didn't determine what my relationship meant with him. We had a lot of years together, and there was a lot of happiness ... [But] marriage really wasn't the top priority on the list. I will never sit here and say that Puffy — or any man — is 100% faithful. I just don't believe it. Some of you are, but I'm not going to sit here and say that I didn't believe that he cheated on me. ... I'm aware that he's cheated. Has it affected the trust value? Yes, of course."
But still she thinks Diddy and J.Lo's relationship was fake. She says, "he still loved me, I never thought it was real. It was an embarrassment." And she admits, she'll "always love him."
"I have a history with him, and he's the father of my children. Just because I love him, that doesn't mean that we can be together. But I'll always have love for him."
And even though Diddy has been seen all over the planet, apparently romancing actress Sienna Miller, Kim says "They're just friends. That wasn't the cause [of the split]."

The Chick In R Kelly's Piss Video Says It Wasn't Her

When R Kelly's trial starts on Sept 17, the alleged girl in the video (now a 23-year-old woman) and her parents are expected to testify that it's not her on the tape. Even though her auntie, singer and former R Kelly protégée, Sparkle, the alleged victims’s best friend at the time, and several other relatives are expected to testify that it is her. At a court hearing two summers ago, the former best friend testified it was indeed her friend in the video and that she remembers the time well, when both were 14, because both girls had the same haircut. Court papers also indicate both girls started hanging out with R when they were in the sixth grade. The girl's father played bass for R Kelly and the girl is listed as R's goddaughter in the liner notes of the TP2.com album. The trial is expected to last 3 to 4 weeks.

Juicy Dirt From The Comment Section

This juicy little diatribe showed up on the Beware post about Scary's new man yesterday and boy does it ring true......

When Scary met Eddie...She was coasting into the gas station on the last fumes of her music money. She wasn't broke? Not technically, but she'd had to part with a substantial portion of her fortune when she divorced Jimmy Gulzar and she knew her high-income earning days were long past. At the time she met Murphy, no one was even thinking about a Spice Girls reunion tour, so Scary was on the hunt. Early on it was all good. Problem was, the "relationship" was over before it really had a chance to take off. Scary's positives: her humor, raunchy sex appeal and British accent were overshadowed by an unfortunate truth: she's as common as dirt: loud, tacky and two steps up from the ghetto. Murphy's kids didn't care for her and after she argued with his mother, Murphy decided Scary was done. No explanation necessary. He simply stopped returning her calls. Within days he began to hear rumors that she was pregnant with his baby. Rumors that Murphy simply couldn't believe because hadn't Scary assured him she was on birth control pills before the handful of times they'd had sex? So, when a Dutch reporter questioned him about the baby, Eddie snapped. But deep down he knew. He knew that Mel B had played him like a violin, just as Elizabeth Hurley had likewise played billionaire Stephen Bing.

Months later DNA test results revealed the truth: Eddie was the father of Mel B's baby and she'd made it clear she had played to win. She stepped up her public relations game by talking to anyone who would listen about how Eddie Murphy had done her wrong; she floated the false rumor that she had decided to name her baby girl Daphne "Fortuna" Bay; and had, incredibly, succeeded in having her labor induced—just minutes after midnight—on Eddie Murphy's birthday. By now no one could doubt Mel's seriousness about getting paid. While Murphy had never seriously considered the idea of marrying her—let alone fathering her baby—Mel spun their brief relationship into an engagement gone bad. She demeaned him in public statements every opportunity she could and began laying a groundwork of suspicion about Murphy's "lifestyle," in addition to alleging that the size of his manhood was insufficient to meet her needs. Enter Mr. not-the-son-of-Harry Belafonte, aka Stephen Stansbury. If it's true that like attracts like, then Scary and Stephen are made for each other. Both are street-smart, complicated players with very checkered-pasts. For Mel B, it's a relationship based as much on her wounded pride as anything else. She'd been very publicly dumped by a movie star, and after she proved capable of tricking him into a serious financial obligation, she was branded used and dangerous goods by anyone noteworthy who otherwise might have considered dating her.

Ironically, Mel's big Eddie payday comes just at the time her music career seems on the upswing. With a concert tour scheduled for the fall, she may once again find herself with a fat bank account. Even considering that, her wealth is still microscopic when compared to her band-mate Posh, or Eddie, for that matter, but Scary's expanded purse will prove more than adequate to keep Mr. Bela-whomever in the picture, at least for the moment. Remembering how badly she has been burned by California's community property laws in the past, it will be interesting to see how she conducts her business and personal affairs in the future. As far as Murphy is concerned, it's a closed chapter. When push came to shove he was able to demand that Scary take-or-leave a (hefty) lump sum support payment to bring the matter to a quick close. He has no intention of building a relationship with baby Angel at this time, since that would mean dealing with her mother. But it's probably a safe bet that the public has not yet heard the last of this story, at least from the standpoint of Mel B. Her ways of fighting for what she wants are straight from the gutter and those tactics have served her very well.

Daaaaam!

Toni Braxton Bouncing Checks

According to a TMZ exclusive, Toni B is writing rubber checks in Vegas. Her costume designer Anthony Franco says Toni wrote him a $35,000.00 check that bounced higher than Flavor Flav on a Saturday night.

Did You Hear Usher's Mama Got Married?

The New York Daily News says it ain't true.

Beware

Perez Hilton said somebody told him that Mel's new man is bad news. They say because of him, she's pulled an Usher ain't even speaking to her own mother plus fired her longtime personal assistant. They also say his last name is really Standsbury and not Belafonte and that he changed it so everyone would think he's Harry Belafonte's son. He also reportedly has a very shady past. Mel says she's known him for seven years, but her track record on choosing men has never been that good, so.....

Mel's Response To Eddie's Statement

Scary's lawyer Gloria Allred says, "He [Eddie] has not indicated in his statement or to us that he plans to visit the baby." Allred insists that Mel's main concern is for [Eddie] Murphy to "see his child, spend time with her, hold her, love her and bond with his daughter."

James Brown Got Two More Kids

About twelve people have taken DNA tests to establish paternity to James Brown and two of them came back positive, several negative, and others are still pending. I'm kicking myself right now because I totally had a picture of his newest, oldest daughter, 45-year-old LaRhonda Petitt, and I lost it. She looks exactly like him, too. Anyway, strangely enough, Tomi Rae Hynie's son James Brown II has yet to be submitted for testing. James' lawyer says James never claimed little James anyway and that's why he and Tomi weren’t included in his will. The lawyer also said James NEVER referred to the child as his son, but called him "little man" instead.

You Are One Dead Bitch!

You didn't think Tameka was going to let her sister get away with busting her out in the National Enquirer, did you? Yeah, so remember last week when the Enquirer ran that interview with Tameka's half sister Valencia airing out all 'Meka's dirty laundry? Well this week in the Enquirer, Val says Tameka told her, "You are one dead bitch and you better watch your back, cause I'm putting a hit out on you!" Val also told the trash mag that ‘Meka knows a lot of thugs and that she's terrified. She should have thought about that before she ratted out her sister. But just in case Val's ass comes up missing, we know why.

Believe It Or Not

I keep hearing Usher and Tameka got married in his lawyers office yesterday. Whatever. I am so sick of these two.

Eddie Releases A Statement

A statement released by Eddie Murphy's reps claims he "acknowledges paternity of the child Angel, and has paid child support to Ms. Brown as well as covering the expenses of her pregnancy." and that "Mr. Murphy and Ms. Brown dated very briefly and never made any plans of ANY sort." Sorry, but this statement doesn't pass the sniff test with me. I mean, why would he cover expenses of a baby he denied was his from the moment it became public? And if Scary was just a jumpoff, why would he take her on a family vacation with his kids? Come again, Donkey.

I got an email from my BFF in LA and she told me she was at club Day After to see Hurricane Chris, you know, the A Bay Bay boy. Anyway, Angela Simmons, Vanessa Simmons and a gang of their girls was there, too. So my girl say she saw Ang switching IDs with a friend so she could get in, cause she's only 20. Anyway, Ang was on the red carpet taking pictures and everything, but when it came time to get in the club, security wasn't having it. My girl says Angela went off, talking bout she 21 and ya'll trippin', cursing out security and acting real belligerent. It didn't matter cause they kicked her ass out anyway, but everybody was real surprised she was acting like that. Reverend Run, come get cha kid.

Eddie's Kids Meet

In a show of solidarity, Eddie Murphy's ex-wife Nicole and his baby mama Mel B met at the Ivy in Hollywood to introduce their kids to each other. And in other Eddie news, in case you're wondering how Tracy Edmonds is handling all this, she has been quoted as saying "The Melanie Brown situation had absolutely no impact on my relationship with Eddie. That relationship was long over. "I knew about the potential paternity issue and I've been supportive of him."

I saw the tape, he pees on her If convicted, R faces up to 15 years in jail. It's about damn time, but I'll believe it when I see it.

Lauryn Hill Interview

Mel B Suing For Child Support

Can you believe this shit? Mel B actually has to drag Eddie Murphy’s butt to court to get him to cough up child support for their baby, Angel Murphy-Brown. Mel's attorney, Gloria Allred, held a press conference yesterday and said that Eddie has not paid one penny in child support and has yet to legally acknowledge baby Angel. Mel told reporters, "I am here for one reason and one reason only – her name is Angel. Angel is my baby and Eddie's. She will always know that she was planned and wanted by both of us, but I want her to know that she has two parents who desire to be responsible for her during her life and who love her so much that they want to be a part of it." Eddie has yet to see his nearly 4-month-old daughter, but Mel says she is more than willing to allow visitation.

We Got Smoked

I knew that shit sounded fishy. That Superhead "interview" we posted yesterday was totally made up by a poster named SmokeURobinson from AllHipHop.com's Ill Community. Too funny. Here's a link to him blasting everybody who picked up his fake story. Click

Oh and while we're on the subject of Superhead's trashy ass, here's a video clip of her talking mad shit on the set of a Lil Kim video then getting dumped into a trash can by some dude.

Did Usher Make Out With A Dude?

Disclaimer: I got this from a questionable source, ok. I don't know who conducted this interview or if Karrin "Superhead" Steffans actually said any of this stuff, but it was just too juicy to pass up.

Were you in a relationship with Usher, or was it just for the sex?
I wouldnt dream of being in a relationship with him. YUCK. It was just for sex, but the sex was NOT all that good either. I kinda felt sorry for him. So I fucked him.
Were you dissapointed?
Um yeah. Because it was after a concert when we “fucked” and it was smelling like straight up FISH backstage in his dressing room. It was NOT me either. So I'm like babes? Whats that smell. He tried to make it seem like it already smelled like that when they got to the arena. I'm like whatever, can we get this over with.
How was the sex?
It was fucking horrible and on top of that it was smelling back there. This man is not packing, his dick is way small and he was having a hard time trying to find my hole. Then ol’ boy did something out of this world, he yelled out something haitian and some big ugly black man came out and walked over to Usher and they started making out. I was sick to my stomach. I got dressed and ran out of there.

On 50 Cent: 50 Cent and I have had our share of sexual encounters. We kick it every time he comes to L.A.. His dick is not as big as I assumed it would be. It was probably about 7 1/2 inches. But its not a big disappointment because he can eat pussy like no other.

She also ran down a list of dudes and a couple of chicks she fucked and described their dicks.

OJ Airs Out The Goldmans

OJ Simpson did an online interview about his feelings on the Goldmans being awarded rights to that disgusting book he wrote in order to settle the 35 million dollar wrongful death settlement they won against him. Oj says,"I find it sort of hypocritical that they talked everybody in America to boycott the book: it was 'immoral,' it was 'blood money,'" he told interviewer Kate Delaney. "But we now see it wasn't 'blood money' if they got the money." People were allowed to call in questions and one caller asked OJ if he thought it was "a bigger feat to break 2,000 yards in one season or slice two necks in one night." Oj didn't answer the question.

Omarosa Don't Like YBF

Young Black and Fabulous blogger Natasha Eubanks went to Chris Webbers Badda Bling celebrity weekend and aired out a few of the attendees on her blog. She made some slick comments about that reality show chick Omarosa Manigault and O didn't like it. She told AOL's Jawn Murray, "It became very obvious to me that this girl was a rat by the way she lingered around the poker table and stared blatantly at my breasts. She may be young and black, but fabulous she is not! If her blog is an extension of who she is, then it should be renamed: 'Mean, Bitter & Fugly.' With full-figured women on the come-up and celebrating their curves, Miss YBF set herself back, wearing, of all things, a yellow cow-print dress that showcased the rolls around her waist. While I do love many of the blogs, I don't like anybody who can dish it [but] can't take it! She strategically chose not to post the photo that we posed together for. I challenge her to post the picture we took together and let the viewers decide who is really 'young black and fabulous!" Ouch!
