Poor Thang: Khloe Kardashian Is Not Confident With Her Weight

Posted: 26 Jan 2011 06:03 AM PST

Khloe Kardashian

Awwww, Khloe…you need to get yourself on that Jennifer Hudson plan:

She and her sisters may be celebrated for their curves, but Khloe Kardashian admits she isn’t 100% confident in her body.

“My weight is always going up and down. I’m always fighting that,” the 26-year-old reality star revealed during a video blog Monday. “I feel like no matter what I do, I never look good enough to everybody else.” Through time, the Khloe & Lamar star said she’s come to love her more voluptuous figure — but that doesn’t mean she isn’t bothered by what her critics sometimes say.

“That’s been a struggle that I think I’ve gotten ahold of, not caring what other people think,” she said. “But as much as I say that, other people’s words eventually come and do hit you hard.”

Case in point: after the reality star wore a flowing Alexander McQueen gown to the People’s Choice Awards on January 6, Kardashian was bombarded by rumors she was pregnant with hubby Lamar Odom’s child. But according to the reality star — who is not pregnant — it was just another example of the scrutiny surrounding her shape.

“I think my weight is my biggest lifetime struggle,” she said. “It’s not the biggest thing in life, but it does get you down sometimes.”

Weight struggle or not, she is the ONLY one of her sisters to get wifed up. SMH.

Blind Item: Which Video Vixen’s Baller Boo Doesn’t Know He’s About To Be A Dad

Posted: 26 Jan 2011 06:03 AM PST

baby bump

A popular video and cakes model is keeping a pretty big secret from her NBA rookie boo, Bossip has learned.

The Houston-bred Latina beauty, known for her ridonculous curves, reminiscent of a cartoon character, has revealed to a friend that she is four weeks pregnant with her first child. Her fellow Texas-native boyfriend, who was drafted into the league by a Central Division team last year, has no idea he is about to be a baby daddy.

According to the model’s friend, the reason may be that the two aren’t exactly on the best of terms right now.

For the model, there’s no guarantee that her gut full of financial security will be as wise of an investment as she might be thinking. Her man hasn’t exactly had a spectacular rookie year and is getting nowhere near as much love as he did in his Big East days. Not to mention the fact that, obviously, being pregnant will put her out of commission from her day job for a few months.

In her defense, the evidence we saw shows that the future model mommy is genuinely happy about the pregnancy. And she has had a pretty successful two-year run in the urban modeling industry, which makes it unlikely that she would try to trap anyone.

Do you know who the happy mommy to be is?



President Obama’s State Of The Union Addresses The Need To Win The Future! [Video]

President Obama Puts It DOWN In His State Of The Union Address!

Posted: 26 Jan 2011 05:10 AM PST

President Barack Obama came ready for action in last nights State of The Union Address, where he spoke passionately about the nations economy, education, and future endeavors.

- President Obama last night recast himself as a budget hawk with his State of the Union Address, calling for a spending freeze and a ban on earmarks — even as he proposed new funding for “targeted investments” to make the United States more economically competitive.

Speaking before a Congress that had some Democrats and Republicans sitting together in a rare show of bipartisanship, Obama likened his plan to boost the economy and create new jobs to starting the US space program after the Soviets launched the Sputnik satellite in 1957.

“After investing in better research and education, we didn’t just surpass the Soviets; we unleashed a wave of innovation that created new industries and millions of new jobs,” Obama said. “This is our generation’s Sputnik moment.”

A large part of the President’s speech was centered around bipartisanship and “working together” despite party affiliation.

Many in Congress put bipartisanship on display by sitting with members of the other party.

Sen. Charles Schumer (D-NY) grinned as he sat with his Republican “date,” Sen. Tom Coburn of Oklahoma.

Rep. Pete King (R-LI) was sandwiched between Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-Queens/Brooklyn) and Rep. Charlie Rangel (D-Manhattan).

Obama said the one-night civility would not be enough.

“What comes of this moment will be determined not by whether we can sit together tonight, but whether we can work together tomorrow,” he said.

For the remainder of his term President Obama vowed to push the following agendas:

* Veto any earmarks.

* Impose a five-year domestic spending freeze, reducing the deficit by more than $400 billion.

* Cut energy-industry subsidies.

* Lower the corporate tax rate.

* Invest in clean-energy technology, biomedical research, information technology, high-speed rail and high-speed wireless.

* Encourage working across party lines.

Word on the streets is that this may have been one of the best State of The Union Addresses EVER.

How did you feel about President Obama’s speech? Do you think it did anything to help his re-election chances?

Alicia Keys

Egypt’s mommy found out just how devoted her stans are, after they went all out in honor of her 30th birthday yesterday.

Alicia Keys was brought to tears as she celebrated turning 30 on Tuesday after a group of devotees created a website dedicated to her special day.

The R&B star was sent a link to happybirthdayalicia.tumblr.com to mark her milestone and the No One hitmaker admits she welled up when she saw the online tribute.

Taking to her Twitter.com page, the birthday girl writes, “OMG (Oh my god)! I’m over here crying from this beautiful & thoughtful site u guys did 4 me! U mean so much 2 me (sic)!”

The website features blog posts, video messages, song dedications, artwork and photos from fans around the world, all expressing their love for the new mum, and wishing her a very happy birthday.

SMH. We bet you these fools wouldn’t put half as much effort into their grandmothers’ birthdays… or their jobs.

NHL Team Accused Of Racism… By A White Boy???

Posted: 26 Jan 2011 04:46 AM PST

Jason Bailey Ottawa Senators

We all know the National Hockey League isn’t exactly Black Man Central. But surprisingly, the first player to call out discrimination in the league isn’t African American.

According to TMZ, player Jason Bailey is accusing the Anaheim Ducks of abuse over their anti-Semitic antics.

23-year-old Jason Bailey — a 3rd round NHL pick in 2005 — claims from the moment the Ducks assigned him to play for an affiliate team called the Bakersfield Condors … his coaches unleashed a “barrage of anti-Semitic, offensive and degrading verbal attacks.”

In the suit, filed today in Orange County Superior Court, Bailey claims the head coach of the Condors told him “[Jews] only care about money and who’s who” and that he “never wanted his son to be raised Jewish or to wear a Yarmulke.”

Bailey claims the assistant head coach would get in on the Jew-bashing too — saying things like, “Oh, I just got a friend request from a dirty Jew.”

Bailey says the coaches also forced him to travel apart from the team and he was “rarely given any ice time” in games because he’s Jewish.

According to the documents, filed by Bailey’s powerhouse lawyer Keith Fink, Bailey complained to the Ducks about the hostile work environment — and the team reacted by instructing the coaches to pen apology letters to Bailey in which they both admitted to using hurtful language.

Bailey was eventually traded to the Ottawa Senators in 2009 — and insists the Ducks were “happy to be rid of him.”

Bailey is suing for unspecified damages.

Insert joke about Jewish people and their legal teams and how the Ducks don’t stand a chance here.



Another Day, Another Celeb With Tax Problems: Nas Owes Uncle Sam Over $6 Mil

Nas tax debt

Clearly Nas’s accountants are about as bad as the divorce attorney who worked out his settlement with greedy a** Kelis.

Rapper Nas, who has a home in the Eagle's Landing subdivision south of Atlanta, owes more than $6 million in back taxes, according to the Detroit News' Tax Watchdog blog, where metro reporter Robert Snell scours public records and reports details on famous people with big tax bills.

Nas has had tax troubles for some time, with the IRS filing liens in 2009, 2010 and most recently, on Jan. 10. The address on the oldest lien was the property in Eagle's Landing.

Nas also owns property in New York. The managers of his Queens condo building filed a lien last fall and said he had not paid the $420 monthly assessment since January 2010, according to Tax Watchdog.

Smarten up, Nas.

It’s a boy!

Former boxing champion Mike Tyson is a dad for the eighth time, RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned. The Hangover star and his wife Lakiha Spicer Tyson welcomed a little boy on Tuesday. It’s Tyson’s first child after the shocking death of his four-year-old daughter Exodus, who died in May, 2009, when her neck accidentally got wrapped in a cord of an exercise machine.

“Mike and Lakiha are very happy and everyone is doing great,” a source close to the fighter tells RadarOnline.com. The couple, who married just 10 days after Exodus' death, have not yet decided on a name for the little one. Tyson, 44, married Lakiha, 32, are already parents to a two-year-old daughter, Milan.

The controversial former heavyweight star has six other children: Rayna, Amir, Mikey, Miguel, D’Mato and Milan. RadarOnline.com has learned Lakiha entered a Las Vegas hospital on Monday in preparation for the birth.

We broke the story that Mike and Lakiha were expecting their second child and obtained first photos of the couple on a dinner date with friends at the Palms Resort in Las Vegas, last September.

Congrats to Mike…if the new baby looks anything like little Milan, he’s gonna be adorable.

10 Myths About Single Black Mothers

Posted: 25 Jan 2011 04:02 PM PST

Single Black Mother

The idiom "don't judge a book by its cover" is rarely taken into consideration when it comes to single mothers. Most often, the assumption is that all single moms, especially those who are African American, have the same story—characters, plot line, ending, and all. And the media doesn't do much to dispel the stereotypes that lead to these assumptions, in fact, most portrayals of 'single black mothers' tell the same old story.
