Another Scandal At Oprah's School

Seven girls have been expelled from Oprah's South African Leadership Academy for Girl's for sexual misconduct. A South African newspaper reported the girls allegedly tried to force pupils into relationships with one another and to touch each other intimately. This is the second incident of sexual misconduct at the school in two years. In 2007 a school matron was fired amid sexual and physical abuse allegations.

Lisa Halliday, senior vice president of communications for the Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy Foundation in Chicago, said the girls had violated the school's code of conduct.
"We consider this to be a confidential school matter," she said. "Therefore, we will not confirm any personal information or disclose any details related to these expulsions."

Jennifer Hudson

who recently set her wedding date, has decided to design her own wedding gown. She says, “I’m gonna design my own dress. I want to design it… Definitely classic, more traditional than anything. I want it to be nice and traditional, but very classy, very classy.”

They were last seen packing up and moving out March 30.

Max B Running His Mouth All Over Jim Jones Woman

Max is still facing murder charges in that case and last I heard the stripper had turned states evidence against him. The trial is scheduled to start in April 2009.

Andre 3000

was arrested on I-75 in Henry County GA today for going 104 mph in a 65 mph zone. When the cops caught up to him, 'Dre's excuse was that he was in a hurry to get to a friends birthday party.

Rihanna Is Angry

According to Fox News, RiRi is furious that pictures of her battered face were leaked to the public and that she was identified as the victim in the Chris Brown assault case. So pissed is Rihanna at the LAPD's lack of discretion that she's allegedly stopped cooperating with prosecutors and just "wants the whole thing" to go away. Too bad she already gave a statement and let them photograph her face...

Kelly Rowland got dropped by her record label.

Sole' Says

fuck what ya heard she did not leave her man over no LisaRaye. Well, she didn't exactly say it like that because she's saved now, but she told Sister 2 Sister's Jamie Foster Brown, "I was like, that's funny. First of all, I'm not packing up no four kids and disrupting their lives in the middle of the school year, I don't care what he did. That's just foolish. But they were reporting this like they had seen me out here packing up my bags."

Solé heard about the LisaRaye rumor through a friend of the family. "I believed it wasn't true from the beginning," Sole said. "My being upset about it was just the fact that it caught me so off guard."

Pharrell Cusses Out His Audience

T-Pain

suffered a broken jaw and lost four teeth in some kind of freak golf carting accident that forced him to miss several high profile appearances including a video shoot with Lil Kim. They say he and a friend were horsing around and the friend pushed Pain off the cart which resulted in the injuries. Sounds super suspect to me. I mean golf carts only go 3 or 4 miles per hour and keep in mind this is the same dude who concocted that ricidulous lie about how he ended up hosting the BET Awards instead of Kat Williams at the last minute by claiming Kat lost a dance off to him. Which Kat later vehemently denied. Sooooo, can somebody please tell us who kicked T Pain's ass and why? mmmkay thanx!

Just An Excuse To Post This Picture of Mel B In Her Drawers

because I know you could care less that she hasn't spoken to her family in eons. Mel B's sister is upset because Mel hasn't spoken to their mother in over 5 months and blames the former Spice Girl's husband Stephen for the family rift. Mel's sister Danielle told British tabloid News of the World that "Mel hasn't spoken to her own mother in months. She has a husband now so she doesn't find the time. He doesn't help. To be honest, I don't think he's a very nice person." Dani also reveals that their mother is devastated that she hasn't been able to see her grandchildren - ten year old Phoenix Chi from Mel's first marriage to dancer Jimmy Gulzar, and year-old Angel Iris from her brief romance with Eddie Murphy.

Mef Says


“I knew why they [The IRS] were there. It wasn’t like ‘Oh my God! Noo!! Don’t take it!’ like it is on that TV show [“Operation Repo”]. I was half-dressed, and it was so early that I just said, ‘Okay, you’re taking the truck. … Aight. Myself, I’m a pothead. It’s no secret. Everyone knows that. I go on the road and forget everything else. Sure, [the tax department] sent letters to my house saying, ‘We need this money.’ They started sending them in 2002. Here it is, 2009, and I never paid this shit because I don’t think like that! I could have easily just written them a check for whatever amount, but no — I waited until they knocked on this door and were like, ‘We got your truck and we outta here.' Now I’m thinking we’ve gotta get our truck back, which means I have to get all my paperwork together. That means days of going through mail, ’cause I got mail like woah."

Police State



A Dallas police officer drew his gun during a traffic stop of Houston Texans running back Ryan Moats last week in which the officer kept Moats from going to the hospital room of his dying mother-in-law, the Dallas Morning News reported. According to the report, the officer, identified as Robert Powell, stopped the vehicle being driven by Moats in the hospital parking lot for going through a red light. Powell later told his superiors that he drew his gun but did not point it at anyone, according to the Morning News. Moats's wife and another relative ignored Powell's command to stop and went inside the hospital, and Moats's wife reportedly was by her mother's bedside when she died. Ryan Moats and another man remained outside while Powell lectured Moats, wrote a ticket and threatened to arrest him even after being told that by Moats that his mother-in-law was near death inside the hospital. After a delay of about 13 minutes, according to the Morning News, Powell allowed Moats to go inside the hospital, that after hospital staff members and another police officer interceded. Moats's mother-in-law, Jonetta Collinsworth, already had died by the time Moats arrived at her room, according to the report. Dallas police department officials have issued an apology and have reassigned Powell to dispatch pending an investigation, according to the Morning News.

Bon Voyage


Update: My bad. T.I. reported for sentencing today. He will not have to go to jail until May 19.

T.I. is scheduled to report to a federal detention facility today to start his 1 year and 1 day prison sentence after he pled guilty to federal weapons charges a year ago. Well truthfully he'll probably only do about 10 months or so because his sentence was for more than a year, so he's entitled to shave 15 percent off his time for good behavior. He'll also get credit for the two weeks he sat in jail after his arrest and before he posted his 3 million dollar bail.

Bishop Weeks Owes Money

Yeah it's a slow news day. Sue me. Anyway, Bishop Weeks...you know the one. He was married to Juanita Bynum until he Chris Browned her ass in an Atlanta hotel parking lot. Anyway, Bishop Weeks was sued in 2007 by a former employee for not paying her back after he promised he would. Ex-Employee Lady says she was asked to purchase about $90,000.00 worth of stuff for Weeks' Global Destiny Church and was never reimbursed so she filed a lawsuit and Weeks agreed to pay her back but of course he never did. So Disgruntled Ex-Employee Lady went before a Gwinnett county judge and asked that Weeks be jailed for contempt of court. The judge will have to hear evidence to determine whether Weeks is in contempt or not. A hearing date has not yet been scheduled.

Wesley Snipes


is in trouble for going to a party in Dubai. A federal judge last year said Snipes could travel only to London and Bangkok for work on the movies "Gallowwalker" and "Chasing the Dragon."
"Defendant Snipes abused the Court's trust, and did so in a very public way," the U.S. Attorney's Office said in its motion. "For that reason alone, the Court should deny his current request for international travel." The federal prosecutors also asked that Snipes' bond be revoked pending the appeal.
Good luck with that Wes.

They say he used the money to pay the criminal restitution imposed on him after his federal dogfighting conspiracy conviction.

Kobe Bryant's Maid Is Suing


because his wife Vanessa is a bitch. Kobe's maid filed a lawsuit for invasion of privacy, emotional distress, unpaid wages and wrongful discharge. In the suit Miss Maid Lady says Vanessa routinely "badgered, harassed and humiliated" her by yelling, screaming and criticizing her in front of Kobe, their children, employees, other people in the house and called her lazy, slow, dumb, a fucking liar and a fucking piece of shit. The maid also says Vanessa accused her of stealing her retainer. Her retainer!? What the hell can anybody do with somebody else's retainer? Aren't they custom fit to your mouth? Anyway, Maid Lady says the last straw came when Vanessa forced her to put her hand in a bag of dog shit to retrieve a price tag of a shirt she'd put in the washer. Vanessa was furious that Maid had put the expensive piece in the wash and wanted the price tag so she would know how much to dock Maid's pay.

Sounds Like A Set Up

Toni later dropped her suit.

Jim Jones Rejects Plea Deal

Jim Jones was in court yesterday facing assault charges stemming from the run-in he had with Jay Z's right hand man Ty Ty's little brother Javon Smith at a NY Louis Vuitton store in December. Jim appeared in court last month and pled not guilty on the assault charge and has vowed to take the case to trial calling the plea deal a set up for a civil suit. FYI: Video of the whole thing is part of the evidence against Jim and reportedly shows him "hitting and kicking" Javon in front of his pal Ne-Yo.

And in 'Real Gangsters Don't Use Twitter News': Yesterday Jimmy tweeted that he was headed to court smelling like cheba and later tweeted that he was sitting in the court room with weed in his pockets.

Toni Braxton Impersonator Jailed In Suriname

Las Vegas celebrity impersonator Trina Johnson has been languishing in a Surinamese jail ever since she was unwittingly used in a Toni Braxton concert scam in February. Trina Johnson says she was booked to do a tribute concert to Toni Braxton in Suriname only to find out that concert goers were expecting the real thing. Moments into her second song the audience of 1500 began pelting her with bottles and booing. She was arrested shortly after. Meanwhile the concert promoter and all the proceeds from the concert were nowhere to be found. Trina is facing a three-year prison sentence after authorities in the Latin American republic accused her of fraud for impersonating singer Toni Braxton even though Trina claims to have a contract that clearly states she was booked to impersonate the singer. Prosecutors in Suriname are allowed to detain the accused up to 67 days, and there's no such thing as bail. Trina's husband was also arrested but he was released after spending 2 weeks in a 8 feet by 10 foot open-air jail cell with no heat and no lights and 11 other prisoners existing on a breakfast of one cup of hot tea and a small piece of bread. A combined lunch and dinner consisting of a cup of boiled rice and maybe 2 ounces of protein, either fish, chicken or "mystery meat" and later at night, a cup of flavored water.

Michael Jackson Threatens Auctioneers

So you know there's an auction scheduled to unload all the crap at Neverland Ranch that Michael Jackson claims he didn't authorize and since the auction house refused to stop the sale under threat of a lawsuit Michael is 'allegedly' taking it to the street.

The auctioneer has accused Mike of threatening to sic the Fruit of Islam on them.

In a sworn statement, Julien's Auctions President Darren Julien claims the singer's representatives said they would get "Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam" after him if he didn't call off the sale. "Michael Jackson wanted to give the message to us, that our lives are at stake and there will be bloodshed," Julien said.

Jackson's lawyer called the statement a "scurrilous attack."

you can't sue me for workplace sex harassment because I'm not an "employer" under state human-rights law.

Since Everybody Pretty Much Stopped Talking About Them

Tyrese Gibson felt like this was the perfect time to release a statement about Chris Brown and Rihanna. He tells People magazine, "Although he [Chris] appears to be really strong through all of this, it’s really taking a toll on his spirit. People like me and Puff, we’re just trying to show him love and keep his spirits up while he’s going through all of the heat, and there are a lot people doing the same for Rihanna. It’s really hard for him to focus right now on his music, even though he really wants to. At the end of the day, I’m not trying to justify it because wrong is wrong, but unfortunately, us as entertainers, we have to grow up on stage with a lot of people looking at us. And a lot of people forget that he’s 19, she’s only 21.”

Trick Daddy Reveals Illness

“I went to the doctor, like, 12 years ago. She took all kinds of tests, because I was trying to get rid of what we call dry skin; she did biopsies and blood tests and swab tests. She told me I have lupus. I am allergic highly to the sun, that’s my worst enemy. It’s like an AK-47 with a double clip on it. A lot of people try to cover it up with regular make-up. It makes your skin pigmented. You can go from dark to light and not light to dark. You have to cover it up and conceal it. My mama had 11 children from 10 different men. If she can live with that, I know I can live with this.”

I pray that God gives him the strength to cope with this separation from his family ... Ultimately, we would like to jointly raise Noah with the Curry family."

73 Year Old Man Killed By Cops

73 year old Bernard Monroe was shot and killed by white police officers on his front porch in front of his family and friends. Mr. Monroe, a retired utility worker, was hosting a bar-b-que in the front yard of his Homer, Louisiana home for his children, dozens of grandchildren and great-grandchildren and friends when two white police officers pulled up in front of his house. The sight of of the cop car brought a hush to the yard and moments later Mr. Monroe was dead.

After the cop car rolled to a stop one of the officers called out to one of Mr. Monroe's sons. The son, who has been arrested in the past but did not have any pending warrants, got up and ran into the house. One of the officers, a two week rookie, jumped out of the cop car and chased the young man into the house. Mr. Monroe, who could not speak because of a bout with throat cancer, got up from a chair in the yard and advanced to his porch. At that point, the unarmed man was shot through the screen of his front door.

"He just shot him through the screen door," said Denise Nicholson, a family friend who said she was standing a few feet away. "After [Monroe] was on the ground, we kept asking the officer to call an ambulance, but all he did was get on his radio and say, 'Officer in distress.' "

What happened next is chilling. Witnesses say the second officer picked up a handgun that Mr. Monroe, an avid hunter, always kept in plain sight on the porch for protection. Using a latex glove, the officer grasped the gun by its handle, the witnesses said, and ordered everyone to back away. The next thing they said they saw was the gun next to Monroe's body."I saw him pick up the gun off the porch," Marcus Frazier said. "I said, 'What are you doing?' The cop told me, 'Shut the hell up, you don't know what you're talking about.' "

"People here are afraid of the police," said Terry Willis, vice president of the Homer branch of the National Assn. for the Advancement of Colored People. "They harass black people, they stop people for no reason and rough them up without charging them with anything."

"That is how it should be, responded Homer Police Chief Russell Mills, who noted the high rates of gun and drug arrests in the neighborhood. "If I see three or four young black men walking down the street, I have to stop them and check their names," said Mills, who is white. "I want them to be afraid every time they see the police that they might get arrested."

King Tut Commits Suicide

From All Hip Hop.com


rapper associated with Harlem, New York rap group The Diplomats shot and killed himself during a dramatic stand-off with police in upstate New York yesterday (March 17).

Hackensack, New Jersey police had been searching for 23-year-old Darnell “King Tut” Brittingham, for allegedly stabbing and assaulting a female companion, just 48 hours after he was released from jail on drug charges.

According to Hackensack‘s Courier Post, detectives from the Hackensack police department traced Brittingham to a La Quinta Inn in White Plains.

When a S.W.A.T. Team witnessed Brittingham emerge from the hotel with a female friend and enter a cab, police surrounded the vehicle and ordered the occupants out.

As police approached the car, they saw Brittingham duck behind the driver’s seat and shoot himself.

Brittingham was first arrested on February 11, when he was stopped during a routine traffic stop.

He was arrested after police found 14 grams of cocaine stuffed inside of a teddy bear.

Shortly after he made bail on the drug charges, police accused Brittingham of stabbing a female companion seven times before fleeing.

“I guess he just decided he wasn't going to go to jail," Police Chief John Kapica told the Courier Post. "We had him, so he couldn't get away, which is probably why he did what he did."

King Tut was a member of the 730 Dipset.

Neffe Is Pregnant Again

If you don't know, Neffe is Keyshia Cole's sister. If you don't know who Keyshia Cole is, you're on the wrong web page.

"We never got the manuscript," said Adam Rothberg, a spokesman for Simon & Schuster, which made the deal with Hammer in 2002. "So, in 2004, we canceled the contract and we're seeking to get the advance back."

Dante Stallworth In Fatal Accident

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Donte Stallworth hit and killed a pedestrian with his Bentley Saturday morning on a busy causeway linking Miami and Miami Beach, police said.

Stallworth was headed toward the beach when he hit a 49-year-old man around 7 a.m., said Miami Beach police spokesman Juan Sanchez. The unidentified pedestrian was taken to a nearby trauma center, where he was pronounced dead about an hour later. He was near a crosswalk but it's not clear if he was crossing legally.

Stallworth, 28, was cooperating and no charges have been filed, Sanchez said. Officers drew blood to test for drugs or alcohol, which is routine, but police said it was too early to tell if Stallworth was impaired or violating traffic laws. Police would not say where he was coming from or where he was headed.

Stallworth signed a seven-year, $35 million contract with the Browns as a free agent before last season but hardly played because he was hurt. He was due a $4.75 million signing bonus Friday.

He previously played for the New England Patriots, Philadelphia Eagles and New Orleans Saints in the NFL and the University of Tennessee in college.

BeBe Winans Arrested


Gospel singer BeBe Winans was booked March 11th on a domestic assault charge for allegedly pushing his ex-wife to the ground during an argument last month. According to a court filing, a copy of which you'll find below, Winans, 46, and his former spouse got into a "verbal altercation" on February 13 about "custody issues dealing with their children." At the time, Winans was at his ex-wife Debra's Nashville home, where he had driven to pick up his children. "The victim was telling the defendant of issues with the children when he became irate. The defendant then pushed the victim to the ground." Winans, pictured in the mug shot at right, was arrested yesterday on a misdemeanor domestic assault charge. He was briefly held at the Davidson County jail before posting $1000 bond. Winans, best known for albums recorded with his sister CeCe, has won four Grammy awards.

She did shout out Seattle instead of Atlanta one time but it was all good. Estelle rocked the house too, but complained that she was tired of singing American Boy, and I'm like, whatever, just sing the damn song.

Kim Knows For A Fact Biggie Is Not Happy

Lil Kim recently gave an interview to RapRadar.com and talked about how Biggie's spirit visits her.


RR: You’ve been publicly unsupportive of Notorious. If Biggie were alive, do you think he would’ve been pleased with the film?


LK: I’m a very spiritual person and he’s come to me many of times in my dreams. But, I don’t think he’s happy at all, at all! Because Ms. Wallace doesn’t know Biggie at all and she barley knows Christopher, if you know what I mean. At all! And I was around. Even before he blew up so crazy, so I know how he felt about his mom. And Biggie was so much more than what they put him out to be in that movie. And to be honest with you, I know for a fact he’s not happy. He’s not satisfied at all. At all. And regardless of the fact, everybody who is involved in this movie, he has love for. Everybody. But at the end of the day, he knows who’s who and what’s what. Believe that. And let me tell you something, the way he’s feeling is going to come out. Like, trust me. Everything is going to come out later. You’re going to see who he really loved and the ones that’s standing up for him the right way is the ones representing him the right way.

They Say

the reason Usher issued that apology after he made remarks about Chris Brown not showing enough remorse for beating Rihanna's ass is because he received a phone call from young Chris telling him, "I'm going to see you bitches" implying that Ursh, Jermaine and Johnta were all going to get CB'd the next time Chris caught them in the streets.

Naomi Will Not Be Marrying Vlad

unless and until he divorces his wife of 21 years. Yes it's true, Naomi's billionaire boyfriend Vladislav Doronin is married and has a 12 year old daughter living in London with his wife Ekaterina, who has no intention of giving him up. “This is just a ridiculous affair,” Vlad's wife confided to a pal. “Vladislav is married to ME and we are still a couple. Naomi is deluding herself if she thinks she can take my husband. Vladimir and I are not even legally separated. How can she possibly think she can get engaged to my husband when he is married to somebody else?” But you know our girl Naomi: She don't give a fuck. She's even moved into Vlad's Moscow penthouse and is being referred to as his Russian housewife. Vlad's wife fumes, “I have ignored all this in the past because I know boys will be boys. He has bought Naomi gifts, he has bought other women gifts. But nobody has ever been indiscreet like Naomi. I don’t want to read in the papers every day about them gallivanting around the world." And about the huge emerald "engagement" ring Naomi has been sporting Ekaterina says, "I like to think to myself that Naomi bought that ring herself but in my heart I know he has bought rings for other women. When he mentions Naomi I don’t react, that would be a weak thing to do."

Kandi Buress

Let's see, it was October 2007 and another former Xscape member had gone on Miss Jones Hot97 radio show in NY and blamed Khandi for breaking up Xscape claiming Kandi had started fucking Jermaine Dupri and then tried to pull a Berry Gordy / Diana Ross move on them. Oh, and let's not forget about the rumor that Khandi got into a fist fight with Letoya Luckett from Destiny's Child after Kandi fucked Letoya's man.

Ex-Pro Baller Adam 'Pac Man' Jones

got into it on the set of the ESPN produced reality show 'Pros vs Joes'. The show pits regular Joe football players against recently retired and /or fired pro ballers. When one of the 'Joes' made Pac look bad the two got into fisticuffs. The LA Times reports: One of the better collisions was one at the goal line between Jones and a "Joe" named Dan Adams, a 5-foot-10 sales rep from Boston who played linebacker at Holy Cross. He set an NCAA single-game record with a staggering 21 solo tackles against Colgate. Anyway, Adams stuck Jones at the goal line, jarring loose the football. It was pretty funny, because Jones had been talking trash to that point, referring to Adams as "Waterboy." A few minutes after the hit, the two exchanged punches and had to be separated."He hit me 10 yards out of bounds, kind of a cheap shot," Adams said. "I couldn't sit there and not retaliate. You've got to have some pride and dignity."

They Say

Chris Brown may skate on any felony battery charges filed against him because, according to reports, Rihanna started the fight by clocking Chris in the face with the heel of her stiletto shoe. "When you take off your shoes and beat someone with high heels, that's definitely going to hurt," said Welford Hart, who lives with Chris Brown's mother in Virginia and identified himself as a member of the family. "He reacted and tried to get her to stop hitting him, but she just kept hollering and screaming." They say Chris' people have consulted with outside legal counsel -- including law school professors -- who have said Rihanna's own aggressiveness takes it out of the felony category. Also, Rihanna's lawyer has said if called, Rihanna will definitely testify.

The same snitches claim Ming and Aoki were terribly confused by it all. They say Ming cried and Aoki slept through the whole thing.

According to the LAPD police report released on Thursday, the first time anyone from Rihanna's camp heard from Chris Brown after the February 8th beating, was when Rihanna’s assistant received a text message February 17th apologizing for what he’d done and saying he was going to "get help."

Strahan Was Not Playing With Nicole

Michael Strahan was using a super high tech tracking device to keep tabs on Nicole Murphy. Yesterday it was revealed that Mike began stalking tracking Nicole after he suspected her of cheating on him. She was, but that's not the point. They say the tracker Mike used allowed him to disable her ignition, lock her out of her car, honk the horn or roll the windows up and down, at will. The device also sent Mike real-time text messages - with a 10-second delay- on Nicole whereabouts and had an Internet monitoring system.

This isn't Mike's first time in the spying game either. During his divorce proceedings, his ex-wife testified that before they were married she found a camera Mike was using to spy on her sister.

The L.A. District Attorney's office announced today that Chris Brown was being charged with two felonies – assault and making criminal threats – in the alleged beating of his girlfriend Rihanna last month.

And It Don't Stop

A news station in LA claims to have gotten ahold of the investigator's notes in the Chris Brown case and according to the notes, Rihanna read a three-page text message on Chris Brown's phone from a woman. An argument ensued and Brown allegedly tried forcing Rihanna out of the car but couldn't because she was wearing her seat belt. Brown then allegedly shoved Rihanna's head against the passenger window. When Rihanna turned to face him, Brown punched her, then continued punching her while driving. Blood spattered all over Rihanna's clothing and in the interior of the car. Her mouth was filled with blood. Brown allegedly told Rihanna, "I'm going to beat the shit out of you when we get home. You wait and see." Rihanna called her assistant and left a message saying, "I am on my way home. Make sure the cops are there when I get there." Brown then replied, "You just did the stupidest thing ever. I'm going to kill you." According to the report, Brown continued to punch Rihanna, bit her on her ear, her fingers and put her in a headlock -- she almost lost consciousness.

If You Look For Trouble You Will Find It

According to snitches ex-NY Giant Michael Strahan put a tracking device on girlfriend, Nicole Murphy's Range Rover and caught her messing around with another dude. Seems Eddy Murphy's ex was also dating a Universal Records A&R exec named Demetrius Spencer. Nicole and Meech had been sneaking off for secert meetings and trips out of town for almost a year and Nicole'd even told Demetrius she was going to tell Strahan about their love affair before she got caught, that is. Anyway, Nicole and Demetrius had taken Nicole's Range in for service where mechanics found the tracker. "This is the second tracking device he's had put in her car," one source said. "This one was found behind the front dashboard." According to rumor, Nicole and Demetrius went to have lunch while the tracker - which provided up-to-the-minute location status - was removed. They say seconds later, Strahan barged into the garage, "yelling and screaming. And when he spotted Nicole's car with the tracking device exposed, he walked over, ripped it off the dashboard and stormed out of the shop.

sued the auction house to stop the scheduled sale of thousands of his personal possessions calling their actions "malicious, fraudulent, extreme, outrageous and without any legal justification whatsoever." This was news to the auction house because they say Mike knew about the auction from the start calling the suit a, "total surprise to us, because Jackson had been apprised of everything since the day we started. His manager ... has approved everything."

Auction items include Michael's American Music Award for "Thriller," a velvet cape given to him by his children for Father's Day in 1998, a pair of rhinestone-trimmed socks from 1981, a basketball signed by Michael Jordan, platinum and gold records, a customized Harley Davidson and a Rolls Royce limousine among other things.

The Latest

They say Chris Brown is the one who tipped off the paparazzi about his and Rihanna's Miami reunion because he believes once the everyone realizes Rihanna has forgiven him, they will too.

Also, investigators are using the $11,000.00 Gucci dress Rihanna wore the night she got her ass kicked to build their case against Chris Brown because it's splattered with blood.

Annnnnnd word is leaking out from the LAPD that much worse pictures of Rihanna exist, from the day after her beating, where her face is way more bruised and swollen. Rest assured those pictures will surface if Rihanna sticks with her plans to NOT testify against Chris Brown.
