Dr. Who Treated Corretta Scott King Arrested
The man who treated Coretta Scott King for cancer at a clinic in Mexico was arrested Thursday and charged with practicing medicine without a license and giving patients unapproved drugs, prosecutors said.
Kurt Donsbach, 73, who treated the widow of Martin Luther King Jr. before she died of ovarian cancer in 2006, was charged with 11 felony counts. He was arrested during his weekly Internet radio broadcast and was held on $1.5 million bail.
Donsbach called himself a naturopathic doctor and told patients his supplements could cure cancer, said prosecutors.
"The defendant preyed on vulnerable patients who were looking for medical help," District Attorney Bonnie Dumanis said in a statement. "Under the guise of providing natural and safe supplements, he sold victims potentially dangerous drugs."

Cassie Shaves Her Head Then Posts It On Twitter
"Sometimes in life, you need a change. Something deeper than what you thought you were capable of. Something that displays the “I don’t give a fuck” attitude that was always present but never showcased. Something that makes you look at this whole wide world differently. And something that will shock your mother, but will make her call you a ROCKSTAR. Yea I did it…" -Cassie

T-Boz Talks To Essence About Blasting Beyonce
ESSENCE.COM: Well, there's been a lot of talk in the blogosphere that you were jealous of Beyoncé after making comments about Columbia Records dropping Kelly Rowland.
T-BOZ: (Laughs.) First of all, if I'm going to be jealous of anyone I'm going to be jealous of my damn self because I can't even do TLC again because that was a phenomenal once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that I can never get back. For the record, I'm not jealous of Beyoncé. I like her and Destiny's Child, because if folks remember, TLC went on tour with them for two months when they were just starting. The blogs like to twist things and make something out of nothing. I was simply expressing my thoughts on girl groups in general and that my personal choice would never be to put myself in a situation where I'm in a group that is managed by one of the group member's parents. I think that Mathew and Tina have done a great job, so it's no diss to them or not taking away anything from what they've accomplished. I just know what would not work for me, because, at the end of the day, if a manager has a personal relationship with someone in the group they are managing, they are always going to have that person's interest first and foremost and that's all I was expressing.

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. Spotted at Luxist

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!”
