Damon Dash In The Auto Business

Damon Dash unveiled his new 2-door luxury SUV at the Baselworld watch expo in Switzerland recently. Why he debuted a car at a watch show? Beats me. But I suspect it's because the truck was designed by Dame's luxury timepiece and jewelry brand, Tiret New York. Anyway, get this: The truck got diamonds in it. Based on the Range Rover Sport body, the truck has accents throughout that match Tiret's opulent oversized, bejeweled timepieces by designer Daniel Lazar.

Gabrielle Union Is Not Pregnant

Radio and TV personality Egypt called Gabrielle Union and asked if she was pregnant, as has been reported around the blogsphere, and this is what Gabby said: “Hey E!..Girl I love margaritas and my career too much for babies at this time”….”the Chicago Sun Times has been asked to print a retraction but clearly the truth didn’t make it as far as the lie”. Gabby also says “I’m not 37…let’s get the real deal out there. ” She’s actually 36 and in the best shape of her life. Gabby laughed the rumor off and said to me, “why would I get knocked up AND why would a bunch of ball players sit around talking about whose got mothering skills…the rumor was stupid and made no sense and your the first person to bother to fact check so thanks girl. I’m not ready for babies at this time. It’ll be years before I am! But big ups to all the women out there holding it down!”

Steve Harvey Talks About Replacing Tom Joyner on Chicago Radio

"Tom Joyner is a radio legend, so I don't blame his fans for being upset about his leaving. But here's the deal: I spoke to Tom about it in depth as friends and as men; he knows I had nothing to do with this. I was told on Friday that it "might" happen and I was out on Monday and didn't think anything more about it. Tom found out on Monday. On Monday, I get a call from my manager saying we are leaving WGCI to go to V103, which are both owned by Clear Channel. I say, "That's Tom's station," and he simply tells me that Tom's leaving."
