If It Walks Like A Duck, And Quacks Like A Duck, It's A Crackhead

Flavor Flav has been booking gigs lately but he hasn't been showing up for work. He was supposed to host Heather Hunter's book signing at the China Club the other night, but never showed because organizers couldn't get him out of his hotel room. Then he was supposed to host Rock the Bells after parties at Retox bar and lounge and club Myst, but failed to show up to either event and didn't even call. Promoter John Englebert was highly upset, he was like, "Maybe if he was an A-lister I wouldn't mind as much but he's lucky I agreed to let him host a party at my venue. Let's be real here he hasn't dropped a CD in how long!" Get it together Flav.

Michael Vick's Former Best Friend Turns State Evidence

It's a wrap. Michael Vick is going down. His former best friend from high school, Tony Taylor, turned State's and testified that the 'Bad Newz Kennels' operation and gambling moneys were almost exclusively funded by Vick. His statement also lists several dogfights that Vick attended in Virginia and other states.

Taylor also confirmed the indictment's claim that he helped purchase pit bulls and killed at least two dogs that fared poorly in test fights.

What Do Usher Sr And Tameka Have In Common?

And I heard, not from the Enquirer, that Tameka got arrested at Phipps Plaza in Atlanta in 2005. Yeah, 2005, waaaay after that 1991 arrest everyone knows about.

Well here's a little gasoline to add fuel to that fire. Usher senior left Usher's mom shortly after Ursh was born because he didn't believe the baby was his.

When Eddie Said He And Tracy Were Not Engaged....

...he was lying. Heck I'd lie too if my fiancée’s divorce after 13 years of marriage had just become final last month!

Anyway, two days after Eddie's denial of their engagement, Tracy's publicist announced "Tracey and Eddie were engaged last Wednesday," and that "Tracey and Eddie are both very much in love and are excited about spending the rest of their lives together." 

Maybe Eddie felt sorry for Tracy because nobody went to see the movie she produced, "Who's Your Caddy?" that brought in a underwhelming $2.9 million dollars last weekend.

Mike Vick Pleads Not Guilty

Michael Vick pleaded not guilty to all charges against him in a Richmond Virginia court yesterday where prosecutors said more charges against him are likely and told Vick and his co-defendants, "We've already charged you with serious crimes. You might want to consider a guilty plea. We are going to file more charges next month. That gives you a few weeks to think about the guilty plea. If you come and talk to us about pleading guilty and testifying for us, there will be no more charges against you. If you do not, the charges and the potential punishment will grow quickly. "
Call me crazy but that sounds like the kind of shit they say to scare you when they know their case won't hold up in court.
