Pimpin' Ain't Easy

50 Cent bought [or loaned] Soulja Boy a studio equipped tour bus for his 19th birthday so Soulja could finish his latest cd while on the road with Lil Wayne's America's Most Wanted tour. I'm not really one to follow rap beefs, but I have caught wind of 50 calling Weezy a fag a time or two. That being said, I wonder what Wayne was thinking when Soulja Boy brought his new BFF 50 Cent onstage with him during the AMW Irvine, CA tour stop last week. I imagine if 50 and Weezy had met backstage, it would have gone something like that scene in The Mack when Goldie told Pretty Tony, "You know the rules of the game. Your bitch chose me."

Real Housewife of Atlanta not Ashamed of Stripper Past

RHoA fan favorite NeNe Leakes writes in her new book, 'Never Make the Same Mistake Twice', "[I stripped] for the sake of my son, and to restore my confidence in myself. My son was in private school, his father wasn't chipping in for pull-ups or food, I had no job and no money coming in, the rent was past due, and the super told me and my roommate that our condo owner was about to put us out. It was about survival. What difference does it make if I danced or not? Is the sun going to stop shining? Is my past taking food out of your mouth?"

Since Losing 40lbs

Monique says, “The sex is better! I have so much more energy. I can move around better, and that’s what it’s all about. I want to lose more, so I’ll just keep eating better and exercising, and the weight will come off. It took time to put in on, and it will take time to take if off. It’s still okay to be big, but let’s be big and healthy. I had to lose some weight to get healthier because I want to be around for a while. I have twin sons who are 3 and a son who is 19, and I want the opportunity to meet their children.”
