Below I’ve listed the places to be (NY/NJ) for this week. Come out and we’ll play a game of ‘Where in the World is LoLo?’. I hope to see out shaking a tail feather, getting your grub on or seeking out some culture. Anywho, if you have an upcoming event in the area, shoot me an email with the info. Kisses!
Friday
The Grey
A group of oil-rig roughnecks are left stranded on the sub-arctic tundra after their plane experiences a complete mechanical failure and crashes into the remote Alaskan wilderness. The survivors, battling mortal injuries, biting cold and ravenous hunger, are relentlessly hunted and pursued by a vicious pack of rogue wolves.
One for the Money
A proud, born-and-bred Jersey girl, Stephanie Plum’s got plenty of attitude, even if she’s been out of work for the last six months and just lost her car to a debt collector. Desperate for some fast cash, Stephanie turns to her last resort: convincing her sleazy cousin to give her a job at his bail bonding company…as a recovery agent. True, she doesn’t even own a pair of handcuffs and her weapon of choice is pepper spray, but that doesn’t stop Stephanie from taking on Vinny’s biggest bail-jumper: former vice cop and murder suspect Joe Morelli – yup, the same sexy, irresistible Joe Morelli who seduced and dumped her back in high school. Nabbing Morelli would be satisfying payback – and a hefty payday – but as Stephanie learns the ins and outs of becoming a recovery agent from Ranger, a hunky colleague who’s the best in the business, she also realizes the case against Morelli isn’t airtight. Add to the mix her meddling family, a potentially homicidal boxer, witnesses who keep dying and the problem of all those flying sparks when she finds Morelli himself…well, suddenly Stephanie’s new job isn’t nearly as easy as she thought.
British police arrested Chris Nathaniel when he landed at Heathrow on a flight from the US. They’re investigating him for the stabbing of Danny O’Shea in East London. The boy was stabbed in the neck after being chased by a gang for 300 yards.
Nathaniel was the key point person in brokering a business deal to open a London branch of Jay’s 40/40 Club. Source
I wonder what kind of evidence they’ve got against this dude and what he could possibly have to do with gang activity and marking teenagers. More info, please and thank you.
Acter Armie Hammer was arrested at a border patrol checkpoint in Texas after a drug sniffing dog found weed in his car. The found 0.02 oz of marijuana, three medical marijuana cookies and one brownie. He spent a day in jail before paying the $1,000 bond. Source
Texas does not play. Folks need to stop getting baked and thinking they can travel in Texas without getting caught and locked up.
Erica Campbell of Mary Mary and her husband, Warryn Campbell welcomed a baby girl, Zaya Monique Campbell. Zaya weighed in at 6lbs, 12 oz.
Erica said in a statement, “…feeling so thankful and so blessed to have our sweet Zaya finally make her grand entrance into the world! God is awesome, our family couldn’t be more happy than we are today!” Source
Randy Jackson’s baby mama (who is also Jermaine Jackson’s ex wife), Alejandra Jackson, has been awarded $600 in back child support for their three children. Bur randy doesn’t want to pay. He says he and Alejandra struck a deal in 1993 allowing her and the children to live at the Jackson family compound in lieu of child support.
Randy has filed a counter suit claiming Alejandra and the kids lived “like kings and queens” at his expense and had unlimited access to maids, cooks, expensive cars and security guards. Source
Since the kids are all over 18 now, do they get the money or does she? And doesn’t Randy work at Radio Shack? (#Fact) Just leave him alone already. This chick is on some super shady ish all day every day.
Rapper Mack 10 is in the hole for $130K to a friend he borrowed it from. Mack borrowed $35K from his friend Tadayuki promising to pay him back double in three months. Then four days later he borrowed another $65k promising to pay the total of $130K in three months. But the payback never came so Tadayuki took him to court. Mack didn’t show up so the friend was awarded a default judgement to the tune of $229,668.86. Source
Mack better find a hole to disappear in cus lord knows he ain’t gonna be makin money on music anytime soon.
Demi Moore was hospitalized Monday after her friend called paramedics because of a substance abuse issue. Well now we know what substance it was…nitrous oxide.
Demi had apparently been doing whip-its and went unconscious. Then had a seizure. Source
It’s horrible that she OD’d but on whip-its? Really? What is she, a 13-year-old from the valley? In any event, get well soon Demi and stay away from the compressed air. #WalkinOnSunshine
50 Cent tweeted pics of Floyd Mayweather’s son Koraun with tats that he’d gotten on a trip to the parlor with Fiddy. No big deal right? Well, the kid is only 13.
Floyd later tweeted: “What the hell is wrong with @50cent got my son hanging out getting tattoos at 2:30am on a school night.”
50 responded:
“Man @FloydMayweather mad at me I took his son to the tattoo spot. He’s 13 he’s a big boy MONEY TEAM”
Joan Rivers went on ‘The Howard Stern Show’ and reamed fellow comedienne Chelsea Handler.
She said, “She’s an ordinary girl that was f–king somebody high up in the industry and they gave her a break and she’s doing okay.. Number one, the girl made it on her back f–king the president, we all know that, of the network.
“Number two, she’s fine, she’s ordinary. She’s not a genius.”
Chelsea dated Ted Harbert, the CEO of Comcast Entertainment Group, for four years before they broke up in 2010.
Joan’s statements are in response to what Chelsea said about her the day before.
She said, “Joan Rivers? What the f–k do I care about Joan Rivers.
Chelsea said that Joan got up on stage at a network event and threw jabs at her. “Joan Rivers gets up and she’s like, I’d like to thank Chelsea Handler for giving me a career in comedy (mock laughing), and congratulations on your stage, Chelsea, because I don’t even have a dressing room,” Handler described the situation.
“And I’m like, f–k off!”
Joan said the beef started when Handler rudely ignored her at the same network event.
“Whatever she is, she’s a drunk,” Rivers said of the blond comedienne. “I don’t wish her good luck, I don’t wish her bad luck.
“I don’t think she’s particularly funny. But don’t you come after me, you wh-re!” Source
I think celebrity beef is stupid…usually. But I’m looking forward to this cat fight. I’m sure it’s gonna be extra nasty and hella hilarious.
Rihanna will be hosting a new fashion related show alongside singer/fashoinista Nicola Roberts.
The UK show will follow contestants as they compete to win the opportunity to design an outfit for Rihanna’s performance at London’s Wireless festival later this year.
Rihanna said: “I’ve always had a great love of fashion. It’s a constant source of inspiration and is a big reason why I’ve grown into the artist I am today.
“I am excited to follow the journey of our aspiring contestants and see how their individuality influences their efforts.
Nicola said: “I am so excited to be working with Rihanna on finding a new up-and-coming designer.
“I was so flattered when she asked me to work with her on this show. I’m so excited for us to get started.”
The10-part series will air on Sky Living this summer. Source
Too bad this isn’t airing in the US. I love opportunities to hear Rih talk. I always seem to forget she has an accent and it surprises me every time…I like surprises.
Jay DeMarcus of Rascal Flatts and his wife, Allison DeMarcus are pregz with their second child. The couple already has a 13-month-old, Madeline Leigh.
Jay said, “This was definitely a huge surprise, but we’re so thankful and excited that Maddie is going to have a brother or sister. We’re really gonna have our hands full!”
Allison added, “Jay and I are thrilled about completing our family. Madeline is going to love having a sibling and we are bracing ourselves for the many sleepless nights ahead.” Source
Full hands indeed. Congrats!
12. Jen Schefft & Joe Waterman
More Details…
Former Bachelorette Jen Schefft and her husband Joe Waterman are expecting their second child.
A source said, “Jen and her husband Joe are thrilled to be expecting again. They are looking forward to expanding their family, and their daughter [Mae Elizabeth, 14 months] is especially excited about becoming a big sister.” Source
These folks are really bangin em out.
Mary J. Blige is feeling some kinda way about not being nominated for a Best Song Oscar. Normally the Original Song category gets four or five nominations but this year only two songs, “Real in Rio” from “Rio” and “Man or Muppet” from “The Muppets,” made the list.
Mary, who performed “The Living Proof” for the film “The Help” said about being snubbed, “It hit hard. It was kinda rough. I must say.
“I’m confused. I don’t know what to say except for I just gotta keep doing what I do and look at this as a battery in my back to keep striving and be thankful for the lesson, count it as a blessing.
“I think the lesson is to just keep going. Don’t let things make you spiral down,” she said. “The positive side is that there’s obviously something better” for me. Source
I like the road she took. She was honest about her feelings but gracious at the same time. Thanks MJB.
Rihanna recently tweeted pictures of herself at the tattoo shop. She got some new interesting ink. She got ‘Thug Life’ tattooed on her fingers in pink.
She got another one on her…butt? Thigh? Eh, guessing isn’t necessary, I’m sure she’ll be showing it off soon enough.
She also tweeted a pic with her tattoo artist Mark Mahoney who’s famous for inking up Brit, Angelina, and a few other celebs. She said, “‘My boo Mark Mahoney!!!! #RockstarS*** #TATnight”.
Nick Cannon went in on Chelsea Handler for talking about his wife during her Howard Stern interview.
Chelsea said: “She’s worse than Elizabeth Taylor. She’s just so ridiculous with her body. You see her one day and she’s like 50 pounds heavier or lighter. I mean, what is she doing? I don’t even understand what hemisphere people like that operate in. There’s nothing real about her and her Hello Kitty whatever…”
If you’re a celebrity, reacting to comediennes like Chelsea and Kathy Griffin (I love them both btw) isn’t really going to accomplish anything. But I do appreciate that Nick always stands up for his Meemz
Kevin Allred, a doctoral student and lecturer in Rutgers University’s Dept. of Women’s and Gender Studies, teaches a class there called ‘Politicizing Beyonce.’
He explains why this class is valid saying, “This isn’t a course about Beyoncé’s political engagement or how many times she performed during President Obama’s inauguration weekend.” Instead he’s using her career as a lens to explore American race, gender, and sexual politics. He pairs her music videos and lyrics with readings from the Black feminists.
Of Bey Kevin says, “She certainly pushes boundaries. While other artists are simply releasing music, she’s creating a grand narrative around her life, her career, and her persona.
“It’s important to shift students away from simply being consumers of media toward thinking more critically about what they’re engaging on a regular basis. When students don’t respond to theory or dense readings, it’s often easier to see things play out in the world around them.”
Michael Eric Dyson, a writer and professor at Georgetown University, teaches a course on Bey’s husband called “The Socialogy of Hip-Hop: The theodicy of Jay-Z.” Source
I don’t know how to verbalize my thoughts on this.
Gabriel Aubry is refuting claims that he pushed his daughter’s nanny. A source close to him said, “Why in the world would Gabriel push the nanny causing her to fall while she was holding his daughter? Gabriel is fiercely protective of Nahla. The nanny tripped, and she fell while holding Nahla. Yes, Gabriel and the nanny were arguing, he felt like his parenting skills were under attack again. Gabriel can’t believe how out of control this situation has become. He is hopeful that criminal charges won’t be filed against him. Source
Is it me or has this custody battle gone on way too long? Can’t we all just be grown ups and get along for Nahla’s sake?
In Other Gabe News…
Nahla’s nanny, Alliance Kamdem requested a restraining order after Gabriel Aubry allegedly assaulted her. In her petition Alliance cited another incident in June in which she claims Gabriel violently pushed her out a door.
She “also said Gabriel didn’t like her from the moment she began her duties as a nanny last June. She claims Gabriel said, “You are a spy,” and “Nahla doesn’t like you, she doesn’t want you here.”
She said that while she was performing her nanny duties on the set of Halle’s movie in Spain, Aubry “would walk over and violently grab/take Nahla away from me.”
The judge denied her petition. She’s since quit her position as Halle’s nanny. Source
Can any of my law folks tell me if it’s customary for judges to throw out restraining order petitions like that? I would think that a judge would the situation would be opposite.
Ne-Yo has just been named Vice President of A&R at Motown Records.
Ne-Yo said: “I’m honored that I¹ve been given such a prestigious title and trusted with such responsibility; terrified because I know that playing this role in the fashion of one of my career role models, Mr. Smokey Robinson — these are big shoes to fill. But trust, I can handle it.”Source
Spike Lee lost it after the screening of his new film ‘Red Hook Summer’ at the Sundance Film Festival.
While explaining why he chose to finace it himself he said, “We never went to the studios with this film, Chris. I told you, I TOLD you. I bought a camera and said we’re gonna do this motherfucking film ourselves! I didn’t want to hear no motherfucking notes from the studio telling me about what a young 13-year-old boy and girl would do in Red Hook. Studio executives know nothing about black people — nothing!”
Spike apologized to the audience saying, “Sorry for that motherfucking tirade.” Source
50 Cent posted a pic of stacks of cash Twitter, the money a result of a bet.
He said, “Some times I hear voices in my head they tell me thing. Like bet on Giants so I listen.” What’s he gonna do with the money? “I’m giving this money to my nana she gonna faint … all she do is go to the church.” Source
Well they say if you got it flaunt it…but isn’t this the same dude that got robbed not that long ago? I’m just sayin’…
We just reported that Leah Messer of ‘Teen Mom’ fame is pregnant again a few weeks ago. Well a source close to her confirmed to OK! Magazine that she suffered a miscarriage.
The source said, “She was having bad cramps for the past two weeks, and then she miscarried”. Her fiancé Jeremy said, “It’s a devastating experience, but all I can do is support Leah and take things day by day. It’s hard, but we will get through it”.
The twins would have been her third and fourth children. She already has a set of twins with her ex-husband. Source
I’m sure this is devastating news for her. The loss of a child is sad for all involved.
We just reported that rumor has it that Whitney Houston is broke. Well Whit’s rep told CNN that the reports are “totally false and ridiculous. She just made a movie with Jordin Sparks – ‘Sparkle.’
“People get paid to make movies. [Houston's] not broke.” Source
Praise God and all the angels! And the church said, ‘Amen.’
Tim Gunn of ‘Project Runway’ fame opened up on the new ABC show ‘The Revolution’ about his sex life.
He said, “I haven’t had sex in 29 years. Do I feel like less of a person because of it? No.”
“I have feelings. It’s not as though I’m some barren forest.”
When asked why he was celibate, he got a little choked up. He said that a past relationship was really intense and it ended abruptly.
“He was impatient with my sexual performance.” He says the breakup happened at “the cusp of AIDS,” a time when “a lot of people retreated, concerned about their health. I know I certainly was. I’m happy to be healthy and alive, quite frankly.” Source
Poor Tim!..Not cus he’s celibate, cus some jackhole hurt his feelings. It’s almost 30 years later and he’s still upset about it.
Chelsea Handler went on ‘The Howard Stern Show” and talked about her break up with 50 Cent. She said that things went south when she booked his ex Ciara on her show. He called her to tell her that Ciara was still in love with him so it might be awkward. He even tried to get her to listen to messages that Ciara allegedly left on his phone. But Chelsea stopped him called him an insult (think more ‘ghetto’ than ‘nigger’) and hung up. She hasn’t heard from him since.
Listen to the interview below:
(She talks about Fiddy in the first three minutes.)
He wasn’t too gangsta to be choppin down those backs. But that’s neither here nor there. They were just one odd couple that wasn’t meant to be. Womp, womp.
For the past week or so, we’ve been hearing rumors about Khloe Kardashian not belonging to Robert Kardashian, an obvious product of Kris’s cheating. Well it looks like we may have a viable candidate for paternity.
The above dude, Alex Roldan was Kris’s hair dresser and was friends with her about 30 years ago when she did a video for her 30th birthday called “I Love My Friends.” (You can see Alex in action at the 3:17 mark).
Anywho the two were apparently hanging tough during the time that Khloe was conceived. Additionally my Klo doesn’t look like ANY of dem Kardashian. Know who she looks like? Alex. Finally Guess what her middle name is…Alexandra!
I loves me some Khloe but hot damn, this is my kinda juice. Hopefully, she’s known for a while and had the chance to get used to the idea and start to get to know her real dad. Cus we all know she ain’t full Kardashian…no way…no how.
Janero Marchand, who used to rep Amber Rose is blowing up her spot. He says thtat her sotry of Kim and Kanye’s relationship is a lie. He also says that she used to steal from Kany and that she never paid him his 20% from the biggest job he go her-working on the video where she met Kanye.
He says, “Set the record straight. Yes, I introduced Amber Rose to Kanye West for the “Robocop” video. She stole my 20% of her $100,000 for the video.
“Amber & her brother Antonio were going to Hawaii plotting & stealing money from Kanye. I didn’t want anything to do with it so YES I told Ye. That is the real reason they broke up. I will speak more on it in my [documentary], The Michael Jordan of Models: This Is Janero drops in Feb. 2012.
“I’ve silenced myself long enough and I’m just tired of Amber’s lies. If she tries to refute what I say. I have emails to back up everything. Kanye is a good person & it’s not right what Amber is doing to him.” Source
Uncle Luke of 2 Live Crew has announced that he and the group are getting back together. He says they’re planning to go on tour and he’s ready to start practicing. Source
Luke is too old to be rappin bout poppin anyone’s coochie. The only geriatric rapper that can get that off is LL and Luke is NO LL.
Halle’s ex, Gabriel Aubry is under investigation for criminal child endangerment and battery. He allegedly pushed his nanny into a door while she held his daughter Nahla.
According to reports, he kept Nahla home from school on Wednesday so when the nanny went to pick her up and found she wasn’t there she went to Gabriel’s home. She picked up Nahla and started to question him about why he kept her out of school.
That’s when he allegedly flew into a rage — claiming, “You’re the f**king nanny. Who do you think you are? You are a nobody. You don’t need to f**king know anything.” He then allegedly pushed the nanny out the door, Nahla in her arms.
So she filed a report claiming she was injured. Source
If this is true then this dude deserves an Oscar because he never gives off any of the violent, nasty racist vibes that he should if he’d guilty of even half of the things he’s accused of.
We hear that singer/actress Whitney Houston is broke.
A source said, “Whitney’s fortune is gone. Music industry heavy hitters are supporting her and her label is fronting her cash against her next album, but no one knows when that will be released.”
“She might be homeless if not for people saving her. She is broke as a joke.”
“She called someone to ask for $100.
“It is so sad. She should have Mariah Carey money, and she’s flat broke.” Source
Jesus be an EBT card and do something for Whit. It looks like she’s kicked the rocks so she needs a big break before she goes back to them. Hopefully ‘Sparkle’ can do that for her.

Diddy is always grinding. His latest business plan is to launch a music-themed cable network called Revolt by the end of the year.
Andy Schuon, former MTV programming chief, is supposedly involved in the project. Diddy is in talks with Time Warner Cable to distribute the network which is described as “a music and music news channel with an urban skew.” Source
This could be promising. I’ll keep an eye out for it. (As if I need to watch any more TV.)
Jay-Z celebrated the relaunch of his 40/40 Club last week with a red carpet and huge party. Well, the club was shut down the very next day by the Health Department for several health code violations.
Last week Jay Z re-opened the 40/40 club in New York to much fanfare. The VERY NEXT DAY it was closed down by the Health Department for health code violations…
The NY Post reports:
A worker was also seen mixing salsa with his bare hands.
The refrigerator was at a rancid 60 degrees instead of 41 — jeopardizing the safety of 50 pounds of raw chicken wings, five pounds of raw shrimp and 100 turkey burgers, the sources said.
Five pounds of cooked mashed potatoes, meanwhile, were left out at a temperature of 89 degrees, while 10 pounds of cooked rice and 50 turkey burgers were kept at 67 degrees.
All the hot foods should be at least 140 degrees, the sources said.
The club’s restaurant was immediately closed, and new patrons were barred from entering. Those already inside were allowed to remain.
The nightspot corrected the problem and was cleared for business the next night.
However, problems could be looming for 40/40. The inspector gave the club 69 violation points, far in excess of the 28 needed for a worst-possible “C” grade, and they’ll be adjudicated at a hearing next month.
During its last inspection, in March, before the facelift, the club racked up 39 violation points for problems including improperly handled food and unsanitary conditions. Source
Holy snikey! That is flippin’ disgusting. (*Vomits then leaves it out on the counter to chill…40/40 style)

Congrats!

More Details…
Bryce Dallas Howard of Twilight fame and her husband, Seth Gabel, welcomed their second child together, a baby girl they named Beatrice Jean Howard-Gabel.
She weighed in at 8 lbs., 6 oz. Her birth was announced by her grandfather, director Ron Howard on Twitter.
He tweeted, “Beatrice Jean Howard-Gabel Born Jan 19 2012 8lbs 6oz Bryce & Baby B are spectacular Daddy Seth & brother Theo are beaming ear to ear . Beatrice’s arrival is hugely exciting for our family. Thanks for all the kind tweets folks.” Source
Congrats! I wonder if her kids are going to go into the family business.
Despite reports that Heidi and Seal were going to try to work through their issues, Heidi confirmed that they’re getting divorced.
She said in a statement, “While we have enjoyed seven very loving, loyal and happy years of marriage, after much soul-searching we have decided to separate.
“We have had the deepest respect for one another throughout our relationship and continue to love each other very much, but we have grown apart. This is an amicable process and protecting the well-being of our children remains our top priority, especially during this time of transition.
“We thank our family, friends, and fans for their kind words of support. And for our children’s sake, we appreciate you respecting our privacy.”Source
Kristin Cavallari and Jay Cutler are expecting a baby together. The couple had broken off their engagement then reconciled shortly after and now a baby is on the way.
They said in a statement to PEOPLE:
“We are thrilled to announce we are expecting our first child together,” they said in a statement to People. “It’s an amazing time in our life and we can’t wait to meet the new addition to our growing family.” Source
I really liked the bitchy party girl. I’m a little sad she’s gonna be a mom. Shurgz, congrats or whatever.
Tracy Morgan was rushed to the hospital the other day after he passed out at an award ceremony at the Sundance Film Festival.

A proud, born-and-bred Jersey girl, Stephanie Plum’s got plenty of attitude, even if she’s been out of work for the last six months and just lost her car to a debt collector. Desperate for some fast cash, Stephanie turns to her last resort: convincing her sleazy cousin to give her a job at his bail bonding company…as a recovery agent. True, she doesn’t even own a pair of handcuffs and her weapon of choice is pepper spray, but that doesn’t stop Stephanie from taking on Vinny’s biggest bail-jumper: former vice cop and murder suspect Joe Morelli – yup, the same sexy, irresistible Joe Morelli who seduced and dumped her back in high school. Nabbing Morelli would be satisfying payback – and a hefty payday – but as Stephanie learns the ins and outs of becoming a recovery agent from Ranger, a hunky colleague who’s the best in the business, she also realizes the case against Morelli isn’t airtight. Add to the mix her meddling family, a potentially homicidal boxer, witnesses who keep dying and the problem of all those flying sparks when she finds Morelli himself…well, suddenly Stephanie’s new job isn’t nearly as easy as she thought.
Oprah was in India recently visiting a center where child widows are abandoned by their families. Her bodyguards apparently got into a fight with some local photographers. The photogs were refused entry so one decided to climb a wall to film Oprah. That pissed off the bodyguards so they ‘manhandled’ him. The other photographers got pissed so they began stoning the bodyguards.
The police were called and held Oprah’s security team until they wrote a letter of apology to the media Source
Everything about this story is hilarious…EVERYTHING. PS-I think I’m going to start carrying rocks in my pocket for situations where people piss me off. Being stoned will make em think twice about offending me again.
Britney Spears’ conservatorship will end soon, just in time for her wedding to fiancé, Jason Trawick. Her father has been in control of her personal and financial affairs since her breakdown in 2008.
A source says, “Jamie wants to go to court in early February so Britney will be a free woman in every sense when she marries.” Source
Oh good for her. Brit has really done a 180. It may have taken her a while but I think she’s back to her old self, minus some of the crazy.
On Saturday TMZ reported that Heidi Klum and Seal were heading for divorce. And that Heidi would soon be filing papers citing ‘irreconcilable difference.’ But Us Weekly says they’re not done just yet.
A source told the mag, “Nothing is finalized or for sure. Seal flew back from the UK yesterday and he and Heidi are in the house together now. They’ve had a very rough road lately. They’re either madly in love or having crazy fights.
“It’s been very hard. But there is a lot of love there, and any decision that will be made is a tough one because they have beautiful children who they both love very deeply.” Source
Say it ain’t so! These two are one of my fave couples. They’re so wonderfully quirky and weird. Hopefully they can work it out. Otherwise Halloween will never be the same again.
We’ve been hearing that Breezy and Rihanna may be smashing on the side. And Chris’s reps have finally spoken out to say it isn’t so.
The rep says, “He and Rihanna are just friends. He is with his girlfriend, Karrueche, and is not cheating.” Source
Since Chris has been with this girl he hasn’t done anything particularly reckless. So I need Rih to just leave this boy alone.
Fat Joe and his wife Lorena are reportedly heading for a breakup because of Joe’s cheating. The couple have been together for 17 years but Joe has been heaving a yearlong affair with a woman from Dubai who lives in Miami near Joe , Lorena and their 5-year old daughter.
A friend says, “Happy to say, Lorena is fine and well at this point and as stressful as the situation has been for her, she has a lot of peace with just raising her daughter.
So how did Lorena find out about Ms. Dubai? Through text messages, of course. We’re told the alleged pics of Joe and his mistress were sent to Lorena’s phone from a very close friend close to the Terror Squad crew.
Lorena supposedly found out about the affair by seeing some text messages on his phone. Source
How sloppy can you be? This woman been ride or die for almost two decades. Have a little respect.
There have been rumors abounding that Yandy Smith from ‘Love & Hip Hop’ is avoiding taping the shows reunion because she’s 3 months pregnant and doesn’t want to be stressed out by a ny interactions with the other cast members. But Yandy said that we shouldn’t believe what we hear. She tweeted:
But someone from the show is pregnant. Kimbella concesses on the show’s finale that she’s expecting boyfriend Juelz Santana’s baby, their second together. She also talks about how her and Juelz’ relationship may not be as perfect as she’s been leading us all to believe.
Penn State coach Joe Paterno has died after fighting lung cancer.
Penn State’s official Facebook page read simply: “With great sadness we mourn the passing of Coach Joe Paterno…Few have done more.”
A statement from his family read: “It is with great sadness that we announce that Joe Paterno passed away earlier today. His loss leaves a void in our lives that will never be filled. He died as he lived. He fought hard until the end, stayed positive, thought only of others and constantly reminded everyone of how blessed his life had been. His ambitions were far reaching, but he never believed he had to leave this Happy Valley to achieve them. He was a man devoted to his family, his university, his players and his community.” Source
Brew commented a while ago that only football was keeping him alive. It looks like that statement is pretty on point.
Lindsay Lohan has decided to sue Ne-Yo and Pitbull over his lyrics on “Give Me Everything” record.
In the song raps: “Hustlers move aside, so I’m tiptoein’, to keep flowin’ I got it locked up like Lindsay Lohan.”
Lindsay claims in her lawsuit “the lyrics, by virtue of its wide appeal, condemnation, excoriation, disparaging or defamatory statements by the defendants about the plaintiff are destined to do irreparable harm to the plaintiff.”
Ne-Yo said, You take the good with the bad.” Source
It’s not defamatory if it really happened. Hoe-Sit-DOWN!
Rocawear had to lay off half of its employees. On January 12th 28 of its 56 employees were let go. The documents filed with New York State Dept of Labor listed the reason for the layoff as “economic.” Source
I would make a comment about Jay being rich enough to single handedly pay all their salaries by himself. But he sold Rocawear a few years ago and is only a stakeholder. So I won’t suggest that the folks laid off ask Blue to borrow some dough.
Nicki wants to design clothes. Her manager, Cortez Bryant, said that his top priority for 2012 is “to negotiate a deal with a fashion house so Ms. Minaj can sell her own line of clothes”. Source

Rick says he never even slept with her and is ready to submit to a paternity test. Source
Apparently getting knocked up and accusing a rapper/basketball player of doing it is the hot rising career. I wonder if Adecco recruits for that.
Legendary soul singer Etta James died today. In her final days she was suffering from Hep C, dementia and leukemia.

Karin used to be a top aide with Jesse’s Rainbow PUSHCoaliiton. Jesse was found out for his extra marital affair in 2001 and was ordered to pay monthly child support of $400. But Karin says that he didn’t pay anything from December 2010 to August 2011.
A source told The Enquirer, “Karin has tried so many times to work with Jesse on their financial agreement. But he was only paying when he felt like it, so she’s taking him to court.” Source

21. Jay relaunces 40/40.
More Details…
Tuesday night Jay held a party for the relaunch of his 40/40 club in NYC. Bey wasn’t there but several of Jay’s rich and famous friends showed up including Selita Ebanks, Fabolous, Irv Gotti, Ashanti, and even Warren Buffett.
The club underwent a $10 million renovation. The club is now open to the public and VIPs can pay $1,000 for memberships that gives them preferred access to private rooms. Source 1Source 2
I wonder if they found a way to make the place bigger. Because if I recall correctly it’s tight as a mug in that joint. Getcha hand outta my pocket!!
Mark Wahlberg has apologized for the insensitive and just plain stupid comments he made about the 9/11 attacks.
He said: “If I was on that plane with my kids, it wouldn’t have went down like it did. There would have been a lot of blood in that first-class cabin and then me saying, ‘OK, we’re going to land somewhere safely, don’t worry’.”
But after public outrage, he’s apologized saying: “To suggest I would have done anything differently than the passengers on that plane was irresponsible.
“To speculate about such a situation is ridiculous to begin with. I deeply apologize to the families of the victims that my answer came off as insensitive – it was certainly not my intention.” Source
Yesterday Pilar’s claims of abuse and narcissim against Deion showed that the two aren’t as ‘cool’ as Deion tried to make us all believe. Well it looks like Deion is pissed and fighting back.
His attorney, Jody Johnson, tells TMZ — “The actions of Ms. Sanders and her attorney are nothing more than an attempt to avoid a legally binding contract that she no longer likes, by falsely assassinating the character of Mr. Sanders in an effort to extort additional money from Mr. Sanders.”
“Mr. Sanders committed to a generous financial agreement with his wife when they both voluntarily signed a premarital agreement.”
Deion claims he also showered her with money and gifts before and during their marriage. Source
Give a bish a black card and she acts outta pocket.
Actress Elsa Pataky and husband, actor Chris Hemsworth, are expecting their first child together.
Elsa told Hola! that the couple “are ecstatic, very happy and excited.”
She added that they’re keeping the gender a surprise, saying that “since it’s our first child, we don’t care if it’s a boy or a girl, our only wish is that it’s healthy.”
Travis Barker is redy to sue MediaTakeOut for leaking nude photos of him on the Internet. Thetwebsite posted the pics and claimed they were sent by Travis to another unnamed rock star.
So Travis has hired attorney Evan Spiegle to serve MediaTakeOut with a cease and desist, asking that they take down the photos immediately.
Sources say the photos are more than five years old and were “private and never intended for public viewing or to be seen by anyone else.” Source
That’s what they get. MTO is steady on some lie ish.
LL Cool Jay has been announced as the host of the 54th Grammy Awards. This is the first time in xeven years that the awards have had a host. The last host was Queen Latifah in 2005.
LL said in a statement: “I’m thrilled to be part of Music’s Biggest Night. I will always have fond memories of my first Grammys Awards and to now be hosting the Grammy show, in the company of so many other incredible artists, is a dream come true.”
The 2012 Grammy Awards will air on CBS at 8 p.m. ET/PT on Sunday, February 12, 2012. Source
Folks are all in an uproar because in L’Oreal’s new True Match commericial, the company highlights Bey’s mixed race ancestry. Some people are questioning if Bey is actually mixed and others are upset that L’Oreal felt the need to focus on nationality/racial background
Y’all may get mad at me for this, but who gives a good God damn? Do I think she’s mixed? Sure, we’re all a little mixed up. Do I think it was necessary to highlight it? Not really. But once again, who cares? Black beauty products talk about being black and beautiful and queens and all that other ish. Maybe L’Oreal is trying to say that they cater to all types of women in all shades, colors and backgrounds.
Gary Dourdan was in court for his domestic violence case and the judge wasn’t happy with him. Why? Well he apparently violated a protective order by texting the ex who issued the order against him.
He texted the ex on Christmas Eve, wishing her a Merry Christmas and then called her.
The judge gave him a warning and told him he’d be arrested if he contacted her again. Source
It starts with merry Christmas and ends with another broken nose, if I were here I’d be pissed he just got a warning.
We reported a little while ago that Tyra and her banker boyfriend, John Utendahl had broken up and Tyra ran off to Bali to get her mind right. Well it looks like she found a man while she was vacationing.
She told PEOPLE: “It’s a total long-distance romance. But it’s a big deal.” Source
Jennifer Hudson went on ‘The Talk’ and talked about proposing to her fiancé, David Otunga, and even giving him an engagement ring.
She said, “He proposed to me on my birthday and he would complain that he didn’t have an engagement ring. He would say, ‘You have a ring, but how are they going to know I’m taken?’”
“So I had a ring made and then I gave it to him as his birthday gift on his birthday and the way that I gave it to him was like, ‘Now will you marry me!’ So I kind of proposed to him too.” Source
I’m all for women being independent and stuff. But I am NOT proposing to any damn body. Additionally I will buy your wedding band and you will be happy with that.
Sources say that Diddy has been extra controlling with his rumored bedfellow, Cameron Diaz. They say that things were extra bad the other night at the Golden Globes.
Diddy arrived about 40 seconds before Cameron, who proceeded to hide in the corner of his table. Both posed individually for a house photographer, but when he tried to get group shots, Cameron bent 90 degrees at the waist to get out of the shot.
Cam left the party through a back door, 45 seconds before Diddy followed her out.
The NY Daily News backs up the Insider’s story, adding that Diddy stopped to take pics with Paris Hilton (where he strategically placed his hand on her azz) before dashing off to find Cameron so they could leave the party:
Diddy and Diaz did not seem to arrive together. Diddy apparently got there solo,and after being warmly swarmed by Paris, Nicky and Kathy Hilton and posing for photos with them, headed to an elevated back room in a tent pitched in the bar’s parking lot.
There, Diddy found Diaz sitting on a couch talking to a guy. “Let’s go,” Diddy told the “Bad Teacher” actress, who our source says quickly got up to follow him out a back exit where celebrities could call their cars, away from the prying eyes of the paparazzi. Before Diaz and Diddy could make their getaway, however, our source says they ran into three male party guests who wanted their pictures taken with Diaz.
She happily obliged, says our source, until an impatient Diddy grabbed her hand, said “Let’s go” again, and pulled her to a waiting car.
Paris Hilton is planning a follow up to her 2006 album, “Paris.” She’s enlisting the help of LMFAO.
She tells MTV News, “We’re going to be doing my new single with LMFAO… I’ve known them since I was a little girl. We grew up together ’cause our parents are friends, so I’m just so proud of them and all their success and what they’ve done ’cause they’ve just created this whole Party Rock brand and it’s just so awesome.”
She says her new album will be very different from her debut: “I’m going with a whole new genre.”
Pilar Sanders has filed new court documents claiming that her estranged husband cheated on her. She also says that he was abusive and narcissistic.
The docs say that Deion “has been guilty of unkind, uncaring, insensitive, cruel and unusual treatment of [Pilar] … as well as physical, mental and emotional abuse of [Pilar] and the parties’ children.
“[Deion] committed numerous acts of adultery … on numerous occasions throughout the marriage. [Deion] voluntarily had sexual intercourse with others who were not his spouse.
“[Deion] is a bully” … who “suffers from a narcissistic personality disorder, needs a full psychological evaluation.”
The docs also discuss how the money and children should be handled. She wants to have the prenump thrown out because she feels like she was tricked into signing it while under duress. She also thinks she should get most of the estate and sole legal custody of their three mutual children.
Now, on to the money — Pilar claims the judge should throw out their prenup … and award Pilar a lion’s share of the estate … because she feels she was duped into signing the deal while under duress. Source
I’m not saying Deion is right. Because he’s never right if you ask me. But when you marry someone like Willie Beaman, er, I mean, Deion Sanders, you should know what you’re getting yourself into.
Jessica Capshaw of “Grey’s Anatomy” and her husband, CEO Christopher Gavigan, are expecting baby #3.
Jess announced on Twitter: “It is with profound happiness and sheer delight that @Christopher_Gav and I can say that another sweet Gavigan baby is on the way!”

Michelle Williams of Destiny’s Child fame, says that she has spoken to Bey since she gave birth to Blue and she says Bey’s still shocked that she had a baby. Michelle agrees that she and Kelly were equally shocked.
“We were very shocked. We were laughing with each other the other day and she was like, ‘Can y’all believe it? I was the anti – like no children for me,’ and she’s the first one [of us to have a baby. So it was so amazing to see her.” Source
I could never icture her having kids wither. It’s not that I think Bey wouldn’t be a good mother per se. However, women who are seen as really driven and successful aren’t necessarily seen as nurturing or motherly. But I’m sure she’ll do great…that is as long as she takes at least a little break to let her stitches heal up.
RadarOnline is reporting that Fanny Mae’s baby daddy, Antwaun Cook, has been cheating on her.
A source says, “Antwaun has been cheating on Fantasia all along, just like he cheated on his wife with Fantasia.
“She was silly to think he’d remain faithful but it was wishful thinking, I guess. She purposely had this baby with him hoping he’d be a devoted father and boyfriend.”
“He tries to get Paula (his estranged wife) to take him back all the time, but she wants nothing to do with him.
“Fantasia knows that Antwaun cheats, but she just turns a blind eye hoping for some fairytale turnout.” Source
Blinks. Yawns. Oh well, how you got him is how you’ll lose him.
Actor Jesse Metcalfe whom most of you know from ‘Desperate Housewives’ (I know him from ‘Passions’), is getting hitched. He’s engaged to his longtime girlfriend Cara Santana.
A source says, “They have been dating for four to five years and living together for at least three.” Source
Rihanna seems to have lost it a bit over the weekend. And we wonder if a series of tweets that she and Breezy wrote in addition to the new tat of girlfriend Kerrueche’s face he got is what did it.
Granted, her tweets are lyrics from ‘Get Money.’ But Rih has often used lyrics on Twitter to describe what’s going on in her life…thus the kush tweets from the other day when she was tokin’ up. I don’t know if their tweets are directed at each other. But they do seem a little suspicious. Once again, Kerrueche, keep an eye on your man before de I-LAN GYAL sinks her teeth in again.
In Other Rihanna News…
Rihanna like,s weed…we’ve deduced that from the bevy of pictures of her getting her high on while on vacation in Hawaii. I don’t find this strange or shocking or disturbing. However, seeing her walk along the side of the road like a hooker and the Grossie Josie bruises and scratches on her legs do disturb me. Source
O.J. Simpson’s Miami home has gone into foreclosure. The bank filed foreclosure against him in September and OJ filed to dismiss the case. But it doesn’t look like it worked.
He bought the home in ’00 for $575K.
I guess it’s not easy paying your mortgage when you’re locked up. O.J. Simpson has gone into foreclosure…
According to court documents JPMorgan Chase filed foreclosure against OJ in September. OJ has since filed a motion to dismiss the case.
OJ bought the four-bedroom, four-bath house south of downtown Miami in 2000 for $575,000. OJ’s been in jail for 4 years serving a 9-33 year sentence for a 2007 armed robbery and kidnapping. Source

More Details…
Michael Lohan’s ex-girlfriend, Kate Major was arrested this past Saturday for battery. Kate was trying to attack a couple, Juan Jimenez and Rosario Tapia. When the cops arrived they found kate restrained by witnesses.
One of the responding officers said, “I attempted to speak with Major, who was screaming and yelling obscenities at Tapia, calling her a ‘fat f**k’ and a ‘b*tch’.”
Here’s how it allegedly went down:
-Julio and Rosario see that someone is parked in their assigned spot in their parking lot so they wait for another spot to open up.
-Kate comes out of nowhere screaming at them, calling them racial slurs and then attacking Rosario.
-Police arrived and are also attacked both verbally and physically trying to subdue her.
Wait a minute, she did all sthat stuff and was released. Had my black ass even thought about kicking a cop, they wouldn’t have to release me because my dead battered body wouldn’t even make it to the precinct.
Singer Lloyd is being sued by his former manager, Joyce Irby, again. Joyce originally won a settlement against him that required him to pay her $100K and find her a job for breaching his contract. Court documents say she was only paid $20K and he didn’t find her a job. So she’s taking him back to court for the remainder of the money, the job, court fees, etc. Source
I love that part of the settlement was that he had to find her a job. Priceless.

Chris Bosh and his wife Adrienne announced they were pregz a few months ago. However, a source says that Adrienne isn’t pregnant andthat the couple is using a surrogate.

The house was bought a few years ago and underwent a major renovation to the utne of $2 million. It has a tennis court, full basketball court, state of the art security system and a guest house in the back wehre Bey’s mother will stay when she’s in town. Source
I guess they want to have a nice yard for Ble to play in. It’s not like they’ll be able to take her to Central Park.
Leah Messer of ‘Teen Mom’ fame is getting married and pregnant again. She previously had twins with ex-husband Corey Simms. And now she’s gonna have another set of twins.

Jessica Simpson has given up on having a natural birth and scheduled a c-section.
In Touch reports: “Jessica Simpson has dropped out of… Lamaze… She was taking the classes with her fiance, Eric Johnson, but after a few lessons, she decided to skip natural childbirth and schedule a C-section instead. Jessica’s younger sister, Ashlee, was in labor for nearly three days, and going through the Lamaze classes reminded Jessica, 31, of what Ashlee endured. ‘Jessica can’t wait to become a mother, but she quickly decided that giving birth the old-fashioned way just wasn’t for her. So she is planning a C-section in late April,” a friend says. “She’s already booked a $2,800 suite at Cedars-Sinai hospital in LA.’” Source
I don’t blem her. As big as she is, that babe would tear her gentleman greater to shreds if she gave birth naturally.
