Sources say New Jersey Net Jason Kidd's girlfriend Hope Christine is pregnant. Insiders claim, "Hope, Jason and their parents all celebrated her pregnancy announcement at Sabor Latin Bistro in Edgewater Sunday night," and that, "Since Hope started showing, she has stopped sitting courtside."

She tells this month's Essence magazine, "I'd go to work [on 'The Tyra Banks Show'], and women would be crying in my arms. But then I'd go home and put my key in my door and … nothing. No friends, no husband, no children. I feel so full when I'm at work but so empty when I come home."

Beanie Sentenced To One Day In Jail

Beans got busted for parole violations after it was reported that he was in Atlantic City ballin'. On December 3rd the Philadelphia Daily News' gossip blog at Philly.com posted, "South Philly rapper Beanie Sigel was laying major money on a craps table at Atlantic City's Tropicana over the weekend. At one point, Sigel, whose new album "The Solution" is out Dec. 11, called over a fly honey for good luck, telling her he was down, but had $12,000 left to play with. She advised he keep it real and lay down another grand. No word on whether big Beanie won back his $$$." Federal authorities said they learned of Beans' visit to the Tropicana from the online report. Beans got hauled into court and U.S. District Court Judge R. Barclay Surrick ordered him to spend the rest of the day locked up. Beanie Sigel, real name Dwight Grant, is in trouble because Atlantic City is outside the area in which he can travel under the terms of his parole violation. He was also sentenced to 6 months in a halfway house, where he will be allowed to leave each day for work. Don't tell nobody that picture is from the 40/40 Club Las Vegas grand opening New Years Eve

Bobby Brown Gets Nothing in Divorce from Whitney Houston

Remember last May when Bobby and Whitney's divorce became final and because he had signed a pre-nup, Bobby didn't get any alimony and then because he didn't show up to the hearing didn't get visitation with Bobbi Kristina either and then he filed an appeal to throw out the first judgment? For whatever reason Bobby didn't show up for his January 4 appeal hearing so his motion has been denied. Said court spokeswoman Carole Levitsky, "As of now, there are no more pending court dates in this case." No alimony. No visitation.
