CANDIDS: Megan Good Parties In Hollywood + Prince Michael And Uncle Jackie Jackson At The Lakers Game

Posted: 26 Jan 2011 09:33 AM PST

 

The Staples Center, home of the LA Lakers, continues to be the place to see and be seen. See pics of Jackie and Prince Jackson, plus Megan Good in her usual club outfit when you go inside...

 

Megan Good was spotted out on her way to party in Hollywood and she didn't wear her jean shorts.  It must have been cold outside.  Well not too cold.  She wore a tied up white tee to change up her look a bit and bared her flat tummy.  And rocked her leggings and over-the-lnee boots and black leather jacket.  Looking cute nonetheless.

And at the Staples Center last night....

Michael Jackson's son, Prince M. Jackson, was spotted out with his Uncle Jackie.  They watched Kobe, Lamar, and co. blow out the Utah Jazz.

They ran into Jackson family friend Khloe Kardashian. 

And the Jackson Two were greeted by several players like Ron Artest.

I can't tell who is getting an autograph....Jackie or George Lopez.

 

He has aged a bit, but I see why Jackie Jackson was Oprah Winfrey's childhood crush.  Fine family fun.

WEDDING FAB: Cynthia Bailey Gives More Wedding Deets+Peter Pops Off About Their Pre-Nup & The Other Housewives...Including His Wife

Posted: 26 Jan 2011 07:43 AM PST

"Real Housewives of Atlanta" star Cynthia Bailey almost didn't marry her beau of 3 and a half years, Peter Thomas.  But the 43-year-old model made it down the aisle with her now hubby on July 24th.

 

Another pic of Cynthia's gorgeous custom Rubin Stinger platinum wedding gown, plus Peter's harsh words for the other ATL Housewives, when your read on....

The first wedding photo of the couple with Cynthia's daughter, Noelle, is out.  We posted another wedding photo yesterday.  Cynthia and Peter were married in front of 200 of their closest family and friends at Atlanta’s Fernback Museum of Natural History.  And the couple wrote their vows themselves.  Of course, Cynthia wanted a non-traditional dress, so the silvery gown custom made just for her by Rubin Stinger was the perfect look.  About the wedding, Cynthia said to Life & Style mag:

“I felt 100 percent sure when I got ready to walk down the aisle.  Peter is the one.”

Thanks to Peter closing down shop at his restaurant Uptown, the couple thought the wedding may not happen due to lack of finances.  Peter made sure to give his wife what she wanted.  But not without some of his typical harsh words:

Cynthia commented:

"It was an incredibly emotional day. It was exactly the day I wanted, and we couldn’t be happier!”

The wedding airs on Bravo on the season finale January 30th.

After Cynthia discussed in an interview her $10K she still wants back from her husband, Peter addressed it as well in his new interview with UPTOWN magazine.  Here's the highlights where he also talks ish about the other Housewives, and admits they have a pre-nup:

On the money-lending incident:

“She put up $10,000. Uptown [Restaurant and Lounge] cost several hundred thousand dollars—$10,000 couldn’t buy the silverware and the plates at Uptown.”

She can’t tell me no:

“If I need her to do something for me again, she better step up. That’s part of her duty as a wife.”

On repaying Cynthia:
“If that’s the last thing I do before I die, I’ll make sure that she gets her money back.”

In case the marriage doesn’t work out:

“I do respect that what’s hers belongs to her. I have nothing to do with it. And what’s mine is mine. We have a prenup.”

 

ON THE ATL CAST MEMBERS

 

If they say, “What do you think about the other Housewives?” I’m gonna say, “I can’t stand Phaedra’s ass. I think Kim is crazy as fuck. Nene has a big-ass mouth, okay? And Sheree’s not cute! She thinks she’s cute, but she’s not cute.” And this is ON the record. The only one I like is Kandi, and she’s too soft. That’s why she got played with Kim. And that’s how I truly feel.”

ON ANDY COHEN AND THE OTHER HOUSEWIVES

I say anything I f*cking feel, because I don’t feel I need to answer to anybody but God. People are going on Andy Cohen’s show and being all careful—I don’t give a fuck. If they ever put me on that shit, I’m gonna say exactly how I feel, and that’s what people wanna hear. If he asks, “What do you think about the guys in Atlanta wearing heels?” I’m gonna say, “That shit is not cute.”

 

Read the whole interview over at UPTOWN.  What's mine is mine?  That's all fine and good...when you have money to actually call YOURS.  Just sayin'...

Ice T's Son Arrested For Flashing Private Parts At Strip Club + Flavor Flav Fries Up The Wings (Video)

Posted: 26 Jan 2011 07:30 AM PST

Ice T's son was arrested recently for exposing his private parts outside of a strip club in California Monday morning and we have the deets.  Also, watch video of Flavor Flav frying up his chicken wings inside...

 

Tracy “Little Ice” Marrow Jr., the 19-year-old son of Ice-T, was arrested Monday morning outside a Van Nuys, Calif strip club for public indecency.  Don't you have to be 21 to get into a strip club anyway?

The line for the bathroom must have been long because Little Ice took a wee wee outside the club.  When cops saw him "letting it flow," they arrested him.  He was booked and taken to a Van Nuys police station, but was released on a $5,000 bail.  Perhaps we will see the arrest on Little Ice's new reality show, “The Real Teens of Hollywood.”  Sigh.

 

 

We reported yesterday that the line was out the door and around the block for Flavor Flav's new fried chicken and rib joint in Clinton, Iowa.  Now, we have video of Flav talking abut his special recipe and what makes his chicken so good. 

Get out your paprika and ground pepper and find out how to spice up your own recipe here: 

 

Jennifer Hudson On Illuminati Rumors: That's The Most Ignorant Thing I've Heard!

Posted: 26 Jan 2011 06:53 AM PST

Jennifer Hudson took to her UStream this week to talk about her brand new song "Where U At?"  And she diverted to a question from one of her fans about the Illuminati rumors.

 

Read on for what she had to say about folks saying she's part of the sub-Hollywood cult of alleged devil-worshiping where folks supposedly trade their soul for fame and riches....

Here's what the newly svelte Jenny Hud had to say to her fans about those pesky Illuminati rumors:

“I’m so glad someone brought this Illuminati mess up because only a child of God would address it. That is the most ignorant thing I have ever heard in my life. And it’s offensive because basically what? The people that are here today don’t deserve to be where they are? What, we didn’t work for it? So I find—and I hate to go there—but I find it’s those that can’t make it that would probably join Illuminati, or whoever that is, to get somewhere.”

“Don’t listen to that type of stuff, don’t follow that stuff because those people are only luring you in to become a part of some mess like that, so know that you’re only falling victim. That’s their way of gaining followers. I’d advise you to stay away from it. Those who are reading it are falling into it. It could not be more untrue.”

So there you go.  Not only does Jenny claim she's not down with that foolery, but she also, on the sly, admits there is an Illuminati world out there and folks who can't make it on their own are more susceptible to join. Here's the actual clip. Skip to the 47:00 mark:

By the way, she's shooting her video for "Where U At?" next week.

BABY FAB: Mike Tyson And Wife Lakiha Welcome Baby Boy!

Posted: 26 Jan 2011 05:54 AM PST

Mike Tyson is a father again.  Get the deets on Mike's new little heavweight inside...

 

 

Former boxing heavyweight champion Mike Tyson and his wife Lakiha Spicer Tyson are the proud parents of a bouncing baby boy.  The new "little Tyson" was born at a Las Vegas hospital on Tuesday.  This is Mike's eighth child. 

"Mike and Lakiha are very happy and everyone is doing great," a source close to the fighter told  RadarOnline.com.  Mike and Lakiha have not yet decided on a name for the little one.

Last year when Mike was a guest on "The View," he revealed his money woes saying,

"I'm totally destitute and broke. But I have an awesome life, I have an awesome wife who cares about me. I'm totally broke. I had a lot of fun. It (going broke) just happened. I don't deserve to have the wife that I have; I don't deserve the kids that I have, but I do, and I'm very grateful."

And now he has another reason to be grateful. Congrats to Mike and Lakiha.

FLOTUS & POTUS Show Out For The State Of The Union Address

Posted: 25 Jan 2011 08:17 PM PST

Michelle Obama looked every bit the President's wife at tonight's State of the Union address on Capitol Hill.  In her classic fit, Rachel Roy silver silk shift dress, she showed off her curves and did so effortlessly.  Tuesday was one of the biggest nights in politics, and President Obama and Mrs. O looked fantastic for the occasion.

 

Pics of the First Couple on their big night, plus a clip from the President's speech, when you read on...

Mr. and Mrs. Obama put on a show of solidarity for Pres. O's second State of the Union address as they both rocked different shades of grey and lavender accents--FLOTUS with hot lavender gloves and POTUS with a dapper lavender tie:

Swagger's on a trillion.  Loves it.

First Lady Michelle rocked this light grey 3/4 sleeved Rachel Roy knee length sheath dress with a set of bangles and a dark grey jacket.  Very Jackie O-esque and stunning as usual.  And now that she's worn an American designer--again--maybe the fashion critics can back up off her for a minute.

Mrs. O welcomed several VIPs in her box to watch her hubby give his address--all regular citizens who have done extraordinary acts of service in some way to their communities.  She sat next to the family of the 9-year-old girl, Christine-Taylor Green, who was shot and killed in the Arizona attack on Rep. Giffords.

Nice.

 

Here's a clip from the beginning of President Obama's State of the Union address where he stresses the importance of working together in conquering future challenges.


And the speech in full.

In his interview he revealed that his latest single, “Not Feelin’ the Love” off his album Love Letter was originally written for the King of Pop. “I wrote that for Michael [Jackson].  I changed it up a little, of course. But you can kind of feel his spirit on it a bit with the melodies.”

 

  

Gorgeous actress Kerry Washington covers the December 2010/January 2011 issue of Capitol File Magazine.

"American Idol" judge Jennifer Lopez covers the February issue of Glamour Russia in an animal-print tank top while showing off a rather seductive side in a variety of shots.

 

J-Lo has been promoting her latest single called “On the Floor”which she says she has an emotional connection to.  

Jen told MTV News,

"The minute RedOne played it for me, I made him play it 20 times in a row, and I just sat there at the board and I kept listening to it and listening to it. Because I really feel like, emotionally, I connected to it, but also because of how much I love to dance and how much that's always been such a big part of who I am since I started. Since I was a little girl, I just totally connected with the idea of getting out there."

 

Work Jenny.

  

GETTING TO KNOW YOU: Rick Ross Takes Elise Neal On A Dinner Date

Posted: 25 Jan 2011 03:16 PM PST

Well what do we have here?  Rapper Rick Ross taking actress/singer Elise Neal out on a dinner date in Beverly Hills?  Interesting.  Flicks of the random twosome post-grub-down when you read on...

Miami rapper Rick Ross and fab chick Elise Neal were spotted leaving Mr. Chow in Beverly Hills together last night.  Ricky had his arm around Ms. Neal and they were both looking pretty pleased with themselves.  Or maybe they were just in a good mood after grubbing on some yummy food.

Whether there's something romantic going on here or not, can't say we didn't do a double take when we saw these two together:

Elise also took some time out of their dinner date to retweet Ricky's tweet he sent to his fans about his Ashes to Ashes mixtape re-release.  How courteous of her. 

We're keeping our eye on these two...

OH SNAP!: Steve Harvey's Current Wife, Marjorie, Is SUING Steve's Ex-Wife Mary!

Posted: 25 Jan 2011 11:28 AM PST

We told you this ish would get uglier.  After Steve Harvey's ex-wife, Mary Harvey, released 2 sets of Youtube videos blasting the comedian about his mistresses--including his current wife Marjorie Harvey--and accused Steve of evicting her from their marital home and leaving her broke and homeless, Marjorie is now fighting back!

 

Read on for the deets about Marjorie denying the shocking allegations, and readying her own lawsuit for Ms. Mary....

The current Mrs. Harvey isn't taking this Steve Harvey drama laying down.  Marjorie told BlackVoices.com that she is retaining her own lawyer to fight Mary's incredible allegations that she cheated with Steve while he was still married to Mary.  Marjorie is also standing up for her man as Steve has been urged to stay quiet about all of this.  And Marjorie says the allegations about Steve taking their now teenaged son, Wynton, from Mary are just foolish.

According to BV:

Now, the New York Times Bestselling author's current wife has retained an attorney to fight the allegations that she was the other woman, something that she said has left her both "shocked and dismayed."

Mrs. Harvey is pursuing a lawsuit against Shackelford.

"As a wife and a mother, I cannot stand back and allow the defamation of my character or actions that will malign my family," the philanthropist said in a statement released through her attorney C. Anthony Mulrain, exclusively released to BlackVoices.com.

"So, I will do what I need to do to the greatest extent of the law."

Goodness!  I see the 2010 year of the (alleged) mistress is carrying over into 2011.  Now they're getting their lawyered up and snapping back at accusations. 

This ought to get interesting...

Nas Is $6 Mill In Tax Debt?!

Posted: 25 Jan 2011 08:45 AM PST

And the money woes just keep on coming for Nasir.  Deets on how the feds just hit the legendary rapper with a new $6.46 million past due tax bill when you read on....

 

According to Yo Raps, Nas' troubles really started back in '09 in his home area of New York:

The trouble started in October of 2009 in New York. The IRS filed a $2,584,236 lien against the Illmatic rapper behind owed taxes, listing the address of his Eagles Landing property in Georgia, and then followed it up a few months later in February of 2010 with a second lien for $3,365,671. Then earlier this month, the government agency filed a lien with the New York City Register of Deeds for $514,298, bringing his grand total to just over $6.46 million.

Even the condo association of his Queens condo filed against him last year behind $3,860 worth of fees that he has yet to pay including a $420 monthly assessment, which according to them; he hasn’t paid since January 2010.

Damn homie.  I know he'd trade those $50K/month payments he now doesn't have to pay Kelis over THIS ish any day....

A recap of his debts:

The IRS filed a $514,298 lien Jan. 10 with the New York City Register of Deeds.
The IRS filed a $3,365,671lien Feb. 3, 2010, in New York.
The IRS filed a $2,584,236 lien Oct. 16, 2009, in New York.

And he has a tax lien on this Mcmansion in Georgia.
