She Really Is Joan


There's a new book coming out about what huge mean girl Diana Ross was back in the day. Big woop. Everybody's already heard those stories a million times over. Call her Miss Ross, don't look her in the eye, she was Berry Gordy's secret lover, she was showboating at Florence Ballard's funeral, blah, blah, blah. But, did you know nine year old Tracee Ellis Ross was notorious for carrying around a pen and pad and if she saw someone doing something she thought was wrong, she would write it down and later report it to her mother?

Does His Wife Know About This?

New York Knick Stephon Marbury is in the middle of a sexual harassment suit brought against the Knicks by their former marketing director, Anucha Browne Sanders. Anucha claims another Knicks employee felt pressured to have sex with Stephon after a drunken night at a strip club, and then once more when Stephon texted her asking, "when can I have some more of that?" Marbury is not named in the suit, but Anucha claims reporting the incident directly lead to her firing. She also said Stephon routinely called her a black b-word and told her she ain't running ish. Anucha also accuses Knicks coach, Isaiah Thomas of telling a Knicks dancer to go in the locker room and flirt with the referees and Anucha said Isaiah once told her it was too distracting working around someone as beautiful as her. 

When Anucha first filed this suit, the Knicks were ready to settle out of court, but when she asked for $6 million dollars they told her to kick rocks and that's when she started airing everybody out.

Foxy Skipping P.O. Meetings

The day Foxy "allegedly" got her butt kicked by three of her pimp ex-boyfriend's hookers, she had a court ordered meeting with her parole officer, but didn't show up. She has another meeting scheduled for today and a note was tacked to her door that said, "Failure to appear may seriously affect your probation status."

Foxy was in hiding yesterday and her rep, Chaz Williams of Black Hand Entertainment, denied she had been beaten and robbed after breaking up with a pimp boyfriend Saturday morning in East New York, Brooklyn. He showed a Rolex watch, a diamond-encrusted ring, an American Express black card and a Louis Vuitton bag to prove Foxy hadn't been robbed. "We know nothing about any pimps, prostitutes, or boyfriends," Williams said.

But police say Brown was roughed up when the spurned boyfriend called several women.
