LEAKED CHRIS AND RIHANNA SPECIAL MOMENTS







These photos are supposed to be some pictures from the same leak that happened earlier of Chris and Rihanna. Hey, I just want to understand one thing.. Why do celebrities take private pictures and put them on an email???? People hack into stuff. My advice is that you take those pictures and put them on a cd or a flash drive and then put it in a safe deposit box. Do something so stuff like this will not happen.

MISS BERRY MISS BERRY ....


Halle Berry was honored with the Decade of Hotness award at Spike TV’s 2009 “Guys Choice” Awards held at the Sony Studios on Saturday in Los Angeles. The 42-year-old actress had a very special moment with Jamie Foxx, who was on hand to present the award to Halle
Jamie thanked Halle by kissing her on the lips and giving her a nice squeeze on her tush. And Halle thanked him with a hand on his private. Looks like they both really enjoyed it!

source

So I just saw these pics of Halle Berry and I must say that I am very disapointed in her. She went up there and degraded herself from an Oscar Winning Actress to a straight trick ho on the stroll looking to make her next buck. Miss Berry looked very hard pressed and that the rent was due that night. What happened to her integrity and self respect?? What happened to her boyfriend Gabriel?? The fine fashion model??? And what type of example is that for her daughter?? Nayla is going to google her mother one day and this is going to be what pops up?? Im so disapointed Halle. And I have not forgotten about Jamie Foxx. Jamie Foxx has a 16 year old daughter. Nuff Said!!!
I mean dude just got finished putting out the fire associated with Miley Cyrus and now here he goes again publicly degrading women again. I'm still confused by all of this. Halle make up your mind..do you want a brother or another?????

NEW VIDEOS: JERMIAH "BIRTHDAY SEX" AND DAY 26 "STADIUM MUSIC"



Here is the heavily anticipated video for Jermiah's Birthday Sex. I like this song, but dude disapointed me in the looks department. You sing this type of song you need to be tight in the looks department and the body. He didnt cut it.



Here is Day 26 with their 2nd single "Stadium Music". All I got to say is that the video could have been way better. WAY BETTER!

RIHANNA WILL BE SUBPOENED TO TESTIFY AGAINST CHRIS BROWN


Rihanna is among the witnesses whom prosecutors plan to call during a hearing in Chris Brown's assault case, an attorney said Thursday.

Donald Etra, Rihanna's lawyer, told reporters that prosecutors have told him the Barbados-born singer will receive a subpoena to testify at a preliminary hearing June 22. The hearing will focus on whether there is enough evidence to continue the case against Brown.

Etra said Rihanna will comply with the order. It would mark her first appearance in court since felony assault and criminal threats charges were filed against Brown in March.

If she is called to testify, the 21-year-old singer would be subject to cross-examination by Brown's attorney, Mark Geragos.

C-MURDER SENTANCED TO 10 YEARS

C-Murder, better known to the government as Corey Miller, has pleaded "no contest" to attempted murder charges. The No-Limit rapper and brother to Master P (known now as P Miller), plead to two counts of attempted second-degree murder and with the plea agreement he will be sentenced to 10 years in prison.


As we previously reported, the jury selection process for C-Murder's trial had just begun. More than fourty people were brought in as prospective jurors and Judge Tony Marabella asked whether anyone knew of the defendant, Corey Miller saying "Mr. Miller is a rap artist, or a hip-hop artist, if the terminology is correct," Marabella said. "He sometimes goes by C-Miller. He sometimes goes by C-Murder." In the crowded courtroom, 37 people raised their hands, setting in motion an extended jury-selection process that is scheduled to resume Wednesday.

T.I. heads to prison



T.I. entered an Arkansas federal prison Tuesday to begin a year and a day sentence on a weapon charge.The rapper made a concertlike entrance to the Forrest City low-security prison — showing up late inside of a black conversion van with tinted windows. T.I. (real name: Clifford J. Harris Jr.) was to report at noon, but the deadline passed as guards outside blocked reporters and onlookers from coming near the facility on a rural state highway. It was not immediately clear if T.I.'s late arrival would affect his plea deal with prosecutors. Traci Billingsley, another prison spokeswoman, said the prison had no special protections prepared for the rapper.

See you in 366 days T.I. !!! Personally, I think he is going to get out early. We will see.

YUNG JOC SUING DIDDY AND BAD BOY


Yung Joc has fighting words for Diddy. The Southern rapper tells Billboard.com that he plans to file a lawsuit against Bad Boy Records and Block Entertainment for a host of contractual discrepancies, including failure to pay royalties and advances for his first two albums and charging "outrageous clearance fees" for his collaborations with other artists.

"I haven't been paid any royalties since I've been out, after over a million albums sold," says Yung Joc. "For my first album, they gave me a $25,000 advance when I was supposed to get more...Then I had a million dollar budget for my second album, never even got an advance off of it. For the third one they hit me with another $25,000, like I'm some chump in this shit. And I just got tired of it."

"I'm not even griping; I'm just letting it be known that what's fair is fair, and I haven't been treated fairly. I've been fighting for a year and a half. I'm prepared to weather the storm. So they could kiss my ass, and let's go to court."

*UPDATE* WAYMAN TISDALE LOSES HIS BATTLE WITH CANCER




Wayman Tisdale, the one-time Oklahoma star and NBA player who recorded several jazz albums, died at 44 after a two year battle with cancer, the Associated Press reports. Tisdale, a 6' 9" forward who was an Olympic gold medalist and three-time All-American for Oklahoma, played for the Indiana Pacers, Sacramento Kings, and Phoenix Suns during a 12 season NBA career. A bass player, Tisdale made his jazz recording debut in 1995 with "Power Forward." He released eight albums, all of which were top 10 on Billboard's Contemporary Jazz Albums chart, including three that went to No. 1 -- 2001's "Face to Face," "Way Up!" in 2006 and his most recent album, 2008's "Rebound," which features a cover of Barry White's "Never Gonna Give You Up" with country singer Toby Keith on vocals. Tisdale was diagnosed with bone cancer in 2007, and his right leg

Per CNN:

Tisdale, 44, died in a Tulsa, Oklahoma, hospital, where his wife took him when he had trouble breathing early Friday, agent Scott Pang said.

Tisdale's death was "a complete shock" and came as he prepared to return to the recording studio next week to work on a project with jazz guitarist Norman Brown, Pang said.

"He was a real testament to the power of positive thinking," said Pang. "Even after the cancer and amputating his leg above his knee, he never lost that smile on his face."

BEYONCE ON MARIE CLAIR JUNE 2009




Insert:

From her perch at the edge of the stage in Hartford, she issues a stream of questions and notes about kinks that need to be worked out. "Can people hear the lyrics enough to sing along?" she wonders. "Is it too crowded up here? Am I missing a chance to connect with the audience a little?" This song needs a segue, that dance needs work, and the jumbo-size close-up of all those hands doing sign language on the big screen is just plain "silly." As for the planned interstitial segment, where the band plays instrumental snippets of "My Neck, My Back (Lick It)," Khia's brazenly candid appreciation of oral sex, it could easily strike the wrong note. No small issue for someone who has thus far managed to strut that fine line between semi-wholesome pop princess and pussycat doll.

"Band!" Beyoncé calls to the fully empowered all-girl group. "Do we need the Khia thing?" "No!" they respond, striking a note for emphasis. "Hell no!" they add. "Yeah, I'm a lady . . ." Beyoncé mutters, almost to herself, and in seconds the band is playing Tom Jones's "She's a Lady" in her honor.

ARTPEACE GALLERY

Vanessa A. Williams hosted an event sponsored by National Association Of Men And Women Committed To Ending Violence Against Women To Hollywood And The Entertainment Industry. It was held at the ArtPeace Gallery in Burbank CA. The artist and owner of the gallery is Angelia Witherspoon. She is the wife of funny man John Witherspoon. Bang! BANG!! Bang!! She opened up the gallery in 2006. She saids that....
"I was inspired to open the gallery after visiting the homes of some of young Hollywood's elite...and finding them with big houses, fancy cars, lots of bling...but, no African American Art or really no fine art at all. I strive to educate my friends about art and to introduce them to the pleasure of owning great art. In particular the work of Betye Saar relates to the history of African Americans and how they have fought for survival in this country."

BILL CLINTON GUEST SPEAKER AT FLORIDA A&M COMMENCEMENT


Former President Bill Clinton spoke to the 2009 graduates of Florida A&M University. The commencement was held in the university's new multi purpose gymnasium. The former president challenged the graduates in his speech to

" Keep pushing America toward becoming one community where we celebrate our differences, but we think our common humanity matters more; infect the world with that idea and get people to stop killing each other because of one tenth of one percent of us that's different; to focus just a little more on the 99.9 percent we have in common?"
