Usher Really Makes A Point
to show you he's not wearing his wedding band anymore. As I was perusing the pictures from Cartier's 100th Anniversary party, I was struck at how obvious Usher was being about making sure his left hand was in the pictures. Ring out for cleaning? Could be. Coincidence? It's possible. Am I just stirring up shit? Highly likely. But Usher hasn't been wearing his wedding ring at all lately. If you give a hot damn or if you just feel like looking at pictures of Usher doing regular stuff, click here for him flashing a bare ring finger outside an LA hotel and here to see his naked finger on a shopping trip in Malibu.
I'm Just Saying
In the past few days pictures of a certain two guys partying with several females in the Turks and Caicos showed up all over the Internet. Annnnnnnd according to popular urban legend, one of those two guys has a reputation for secretly swinging the other way. Would this have anything to do with the rant posted on a certain some body's Twitter page yesterday?
Didn't Chris Brown Write Disturbia?
Up and coming rapper and rumored Rihanna jump-off Drake says, “I’m actually writing for Rihanna right now. I guess I’m living a dream. I enjoy a challenge. I’ve never in my mind felt like, ‘Oh, I could probably write something crazy for Rihanna.’ That wasn’t my first thought. But being put up to the task, we’re coming up with some special stuff. It’s crazy, man. All I could do is smile. It’s nice.”

DMX Pleads Guilty
Remember when DMX got in trouble at the Arizona jail where he was doing 90 days for objecting to his disciplinary meal plan? In case you didn't know, DMX was being forced to eat Nurti Loaf, a mixture of cubed whole wheat bread, nondairy cheese, raw carrots, spinach, seedless raisins, beans, vegetable oil, tomato paste, powdered milk and dehydrated potato flakes as punishment for refusing to take his meds or show up for work detail. The trouble started when DMX tried to take a regular meal plate, but threw it against the wall after the guards tried to take it from him, so they slapped him with an additional attempted assault charge. X pled guilty and accepted a plea deal on that charge yesterday.

50 Cent Suing Home Inspector
50 Cent is pissed off because when he paid $5 million for Mike Tyson's former Connecticut Mansion in 2003, he was told it needed only $500,000.00 worth of repairs. Turns out the costs were closer to $6 million. Fif says he never would have bought the house had he known. Now he wants the inspection company to cough up $3 million. 50 had been trying to sell the house for $18 million in 2007 and after getting no takers, lowered the price to $14 million and finally ended up taking if off the market altogether.
R Kelly's Next Cd Will Be Untitled
R says, "I've been in the biz 17 years, so everyone is used to me naming my records. So I wanted to mix it up a little. I want whoever listens to the record to call it what they want, name it themselves based on what they feel listening to the music."
