Shanequa Is Somewhere Laughing
Rapper 50 Cent claims to have lost millions in the recent stock market crash. 50 says, "Pushing (the album) back was to position myself a little better. I've lost a couple of million dollars already. I sit with my investors and business managers and accountants, looking at the numbers and I'm like, 'Yo, the values of stocks in different areas are decreasing.' So I take loss like everyone."
Vlad Beasts The Paparazzi
If the rumors are to be believed, either Naomi Campbell is rubbing off on boyfriend Vladimir Doronin or blame the chick in yellow for instigating. Folks are claiming when Naomi and Vlad were kicking it on South Beach last week, the lady you see here in yellow waltzed over and told them they were being photographed, which apparently didn't sit too well with Vlad, because they say shortly after this picture was taken Vladdie stepped to the photog and punched him in the gut. TWICE!

William Balfour Officially Charged
Chicago police said today they have arrested William Balfour for the murders of three relatives of Oscar-winning actress Jennifer Hudson.
Balfour, 27, has been in custody in Stateville Correctional Center on a violation of parole and was transferred to Chicago police custody today after they served an arrest warrant. He was then transported to the Wentworth Area, where he will be held pending approval of charges by the Cook County State's Attorney's Office.
At a closed hearing last month, investigators presented evidence that Balfour had a gun matching the weapon used in the Oct. 24 slayings of Hudson's mother, brother and 7-year-old nephew. Balfour is the estranged husband of Hudson's sister, Julia. He was scheduled for another parole violation hearing on Wednesday.
Shaun Robinson Is On Naomi Campbell Status
They say the ruler of the United Arab Emirates, multi billionaire [as in 23 billion] Dr. Sheikh Sultan Bin Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, was totally smitten with Access Hollywood correspondent Shaun Robinson at the opening of the new Atlantis Resort in Dubai and rarely left her side the entire weekend.
A.I. Can Handle You and Two of Your Girls
According to one of my favorite message boards, the reason why Detroit Piston Allen Iverson missed practice with his new team last week may have had something to do with Flavor of Love hottie Deelishis. There have been several sightings of A.I. at the Detroit MGM Grand Casino, as well as at All Stars strip joint on 8 mile, but the night before he missed practice snitches claim A.I., Deelsishis and two of her girls were all over each other at the black jack tables in the high rollers section of the MGM and then slipped off for a foursome.
Don't Believe The Hype
If you heard that Bobby and Whitney were getting back together, don't believe it. Whitney Houston released a statement claiming the recently circulated rumor is a complete and utter fabrication. So, there.
Plaxico Burress Shoots Self With Unlicensed Gun
NY Giant Plaxico Burress, who last made it on Rhymes With Snitch for walking out on a $2000.00 bar tab after getting dissed by a chick, shot himself in the leg at a crowded night club in New York last Friday. Plax, who was already benched because of a hamstring injury and fresh off a suspension for missing a team meeting, was treated and released from New York Hospital-Cornell Medical Center. A league official said the bullet went through the skin and muscle tissue of Plaxico's right thigh but did not hit any major arteries, and that there were no broken bones.
Plaxico turned himself in this morning, and is expected to be charged with criminal possession of a weapon.
Plax, who signed a five-year, $35 million contract extension prior to the season, also was involved in a sideline confrontation with coach Tom Coughlin during a game and has been fined multiple times. The Record of Bergen County reported last month that police responded to two domestic disturbance calls at the home of the star wide receiver in the past six months.

T.I.'s Testimony Not In Vain
A Cincinnati man has been found guilty of murder in the 2006 shooting of the friend of Grammy Award-winning rapper T.I.
Hosea Thomas was found guilty Wednesday of murdering T.I.'s entourage member, 26-year-old Philant Johnson. The 34-year-old Thomas was also convicted of felonious assault and illegally having a gun after a felony conviction.
T.I., whose real name is Clifford Harris, testified last week in Thomas' trial. The rapper told jurors that he believes the bullets fired at his entourage during the gun battle two years ago in Cincinnati were meant for him. He wasn't injured.
