Dr. Jan Adams Not Board Certified

Dr. Jan Adams, the doctor who performed Dr. Donda West's tummy tuck and breast reduction, is not certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and he's been arrested for several DUIs. They say it took Dr. Adams 8 hours to perform Kanye's mama surgery when it only should have taken 4, an early indication that something had gone horribly wrong. But instead of sending Donda West to a recovery center, Dr. Adams sent her home. And although 911 was called, they say Kanye's mama was dead by the time the paramedics arrived. Dr. Adams, who's made appearances on Oprah Winfrey and the Discovery Channel's "Plastic Surgery: Before and After", says Donda West may have died from heart attack, pulmonary embolism or massive vomiting but maintains he's done nothing wrong.

Old Dirty Day

Call your local radio station and request some Old Dirty Bastard in celebration of Old Dirty Bastard day. 3 three years ago today Old Dirty collasped in the studio and died from an accidental overdose of prescription drugs and cocaine. Who all remember the time ODB bum rushed the stage at the MTV awards and announced that Wu Tang was for the children? or how he let the tv cameras follow him to the welfare office in a limo with his 13 kids in tow to pick up their food stamps? or that time he got caught stealing a $50 pair of sneakers out of Foot Locker? Dirt Dog was a true orignal, from his off beat, but somehow strangely on beat, often unitelligible lyrics to his wild off stage antics, Hip Hop's clown prince is sorely missed.

Kanye's Mother Warned Against Having Plastic Surgery

Sad but true. They say Dr. Donda West had been warned against having a tummy tuck and breast reduction by one doctor because she had a pre-existing heart aliment, but that she turned around and went to a different doctor who agreed to perform the surgery.

You Could Hate

But you'd be wasting your time. Who says Jay Z is scrambling? After moving 179,000 units, his concept album "American Gangster" is set to take the number one spot on the Billboard charts, tying him and Elvis at second place for most #1 albums. The Beatles rank #1 with 19 albums charting at #1, Jay and Elvis both have 10. Jay's mini concert tour to support the album sold out in minutes and the kids LOVE his new single Roc Boys. He's opening a new 40/40 club in Las Vegas and he just bought The Artful Dodger clothing line for $15 million cash as part of a joint venture with Iconix, the group who paid him $204 million for Rocawear. Should we put Damon Dash on suicide watch?

Maybe Next Year

T.I. withdrew his request to host Thanksgiving dinner at his home while under house arrest, after a firestorm of opposition from the prosecution in his illgeal weapons case. Maybe next year Clifford or worst-case scenario, 25 years after that.

Pac Man Denied

Tennessee Titan Adam PacMan Jones will serve his full one-year suspension for detrimental conduct. PacMan met with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell last Friday hoping to get his suspension overturned. No Dice. The NFL released this statement, "Commissioner Goodell notified Adam Jones that his suspension will remain unchanged and will continue through the remainder of the 2007 season. He will be eligible to begin working out at the Titans' training facility following the conclusion of the team's season." That’s to say if he can stay out of trouble until then.

Give Jermaine Some Props

Jermaine Dupri tells Vibe magazine, "I'm programmed to think nobody in the music industry likes me. I believe that when you're as good as me - and I don't say that to be cocky - you never get your props. That's why I identify with 50 Cent. "50 has sold (too many) records for people to be acting the way they're acting. Niggas just want him to fall off. It's like, 'He made his money... Fuck 50.' I get treated the same way."

Jim And Juelz Get The Bum's Rush

Rappers Jim Jones, Juelz Santana and a gang of their boys showed up 10 minutes before the end of Chris Brown's album release party at a New York club the other night and couldn't get in.

Is There Even Any Money Left?

Between allegations of trustees misusing estate funds, the 6 kids he claimed in his will, the 4 kids he didn't, the girlfriend who claims she's his wife and that her son is his too, even though she refuses to submit his DNA, another woman has come out of the woodwork claiming rights to James Brown's estate. Velma Warren Brown filed papers in the Aiken county court Wednesday claiming she and the late Godfather of Soul were married in 1953, had 3 children, lived together for 17 years, and that she'd never been served, nor had she ever signed any divorce papers to end her marriage to James Brown. Nice Try Velma. Court documents surfaced showing a judge granted a divorce in 1969, not to mention the fact Velma had remarried. "If Ms. Brown believed that she was not divorced, she's admitting to having herself committed bigamy," said Louis Levenson, an attorney representing several of James Brown's children.
