No More Deshawn Snow
The only housewife with any money on 'The Real Housewives of Atlanta' got kicked off the show.
“One of the producers called me yesterday and said that they wouldn’t take my option. I was ‘too human for a circus show’ and that, because the show did so well, they are about to pump up the drama and they didn’t think that I would fit in. [The producer] gave me an example, saying that during the reunion when I found out what a few of the other ladies said about me, they were expecting me to say more. But I’m not the type to go ‘television’ and start acting crazy because somebody’s talking about me. I’m fine with the decision. It wasn’t my decision. They let me go, and there are no hard feelings. I am thankful for the opportunity.”

Super Easy Super Juicy Blind Item
This bad boy is accused of kicking his non-singing unofficial girl's butt at a party in LA. They say Miss Skinny Mini was spending too much time talking to another producer causing her super jealous beau to snatch her up and drag her off. Since this was the first time Mr. Man had ever embarassed her in public like that and because Miss Thing Thing doesn't have a clue about her megalomaniac boyfriend's baby-mama beating past, she started screaming on him in the limo and even popped him one upside the head. What she do that for? They say dude went to town after that. To make up for it, and to keep her quiet, word is he sent her on a $20,000 shopping spree the next day. Wonder if that's what he got his baby mama when he broke her nose that time?
Beyonce Come Get Your Dog
Disgruntled workers at Beyonce's record label are spreading the word that the Queen B has abandoned her 5-year-old shih tzu Munchie. They say Bey left the dog at Columbia records last summer and hasn't been back to get him since, and to make matters worse they say little Munchie isn't fully housebroken and pees all over the offices. Right now, the label staff are taking turns walking Munchie and taking him home on weekends but they are sick of it and want Beyonce to come get her dog.
Sheree Falls Back
Poor Sheree. Sheree Whitfield of 'Real Housewives of Atlanta' fame had to fall back off her divorce demands, so she won't be getting them millions of dollars she was hoping for. If you recall, Sheree was trying to contest her divorce settlement from retired football player Bob Whitfield because apparently $113,000 a year, plus child support, plus property wasn't enough to keep her in the style of living she became accustomed to in their 3 years of marriage [well, technically 7, but they separated after 3]. To bad Sheree already publicly humiliated herself by claiming in court papers that she doesn't have enough education to get a decent job before she realized Bob doesn't have any gold for her to dig.
