WTF Foolywang: 50 Cent Tweets "Tiny Gotta Take The Charge" + Shawty Lo's Babymama Tries To Sneak A Loaded Pistol Into Courthouse

Posted: 03 Sep 2010 07:43 AM PDT

50 Cent got on twitter shortly after T.I. and Tiny's arrest and had a suggeston about how the couple should handle the stuation. Find out what he tweeted plus read about Shawty Lo's babymoma showing up at court with a loaded gun and taser when you go inside....

Here's what 50 tweeted after Tip and Tiny got arrested:

Now....Tiny is a mother. And to my knowledge has never been locked up before. What kind of ghetto "ride or die" nonsense is this? And who raises the children while Tiny goes to jail just so she can keep Tip out. Foolishness I tell ya. And Tiny would be SUCH a great role model to her daughter if she did take the charge. I think everybody in that car should just admit what was theirs. Or I'd snitch.

Cree Cree had the weed. Junebug had the meth. RoRo made sizzurp. And Big Mike has some weed in his back pocket. I know ya'll didn't find it during your initial search but I thought you should know.

In other WTF news, Shawty Lo's babymama, Ecreia Laki Perez tried to sneak into a Fulton County courthouse wth a loaded .380 semi-automatic handgun. But wait...just in case that wasn't enough protection...she also had a stungun/taser in her purse that was disguised as a cell phone. Mind you...this is the SAME courthouse where five years ago a crazed defendant killed a judge, a deputy and his clerk. Yet Ecreia told authorities she "forgot" the weapons were in her purse. *blank stare*

That's a rough neighborhood when you get to the point that a pistol and taser are so commonplace you forget they are at the bottom of your purse like a new pack of Juicy Fruit.

Jay-Z & Eminem Go "Home" To Detroit+Celebs Celebrate For Publicist BJ Coleman's Birthday

Posted: 03 Sep 2010 06:47 AM PDT

Well here's something to write home about. The rap game's head honchos Jay-Z and Eminem kicked off their "Home To Home" double city concerts last night in Detroit. And their celeb friends came along too.

We've got a few pics and video, plus pics from publicist BJ Coleman's b-day party when you read on...

The first of two Comerica Park shows by Eminem and Jay-Z (two more follow Sept. 13 and 14 at New York's Yankee Stadium), went down at Comerica Park last night. 50 Cent and some other celebs were in the stadium too:

And here's some vid of Jay bringing out Jeezy, and Detroit's own Em bringing out his homies 50 Cent and G-Unit:

Em also brought out Drake to perform "Forever".

Looks like it went down in the D.

Nice!

And here's pics from celeb publicist BJ Coleman (Kimora's ex publicist) birthday party last night in Manhattan:

His client Malinda Williams came through and they kicked it with Tyson Beckford.

Kevin Liles and Stephen Hill came to celebrate.

His client Misa Hylton and DJ Steel got smiley for the cameras. I wonder how her new hairweave/wig/salon ads are working out...

And Russell Simmons' new boo model Heidy Allende (middle) also came out to kick it. Fun times.

Lloyd cut off his trademark hair to donate to a worthy cause. More pics of Lloyd's new look, plus what made him do the big chop when you read on.

Lloyd revealed to his fans today via Twitter that he cut off his luxurious locks that women seem to love so much. He decided to donate his hair to Locks of Love, a non-profit organization that will use his hair to create a hair piece finanicially disadvantaged child who suffers from long-term medical hair loss.

When talking about his haircut here is what Lloyd had to say:

I’ve been growing my hair since 9th grade. It’s time for a new me.

The fact that my hair will go to someone that needs it more than me, makes me feel great about my decision.

It was time for a new look Lloyd, and I'm glad he decided to give back to the community as well. I love when celebrities give back. Now, as for the new look...

DO WE LOVE IT?!

UPDATE: T.I. And Tiny Busted For Pills That Resembled Ecstasy?!

Posted: 02 Sep 2010 04:10 PM PDT

We all know by now that T.I. and Tiny were arrested last night for a controlled substance. Then we reported there may have been some purple drank in the styrofoam cups found in the car they were in. Now, more details are being released that police found “pills resembling Ecstasy”. Find out the deets when you read on...

According to Nicole Nishida, a spokeswoman for the L.A. County Sheriff's Department, deputies pulled over T.I.'s Maybach after he made an illegal U-turn on Sunset Boulevard around 10:30 p.m. Cops then smelled marijuana and conducted a search. They then found a controlled substance which is now believed to be “pills resembling Ecstasy."

“The pills are being tested as we speak,” Nicole Nishida said.

Federal officials are in the process of determining whether or not to revoke T.I.'s probation due to last night's arrest. United States Attorney Sally Quillian Yates said, "The probation office is in the process of determining what happened and will make a recommendation regarding Mr. Harris when they have all the facts."

T.I. could be sent right back to jail to do some serious time if they determine he did violate his probation. T.I.'s probation officer has asked him to return to Atlanta so it doesn't look to good for the King.

This isn't gonna end well. So much for "ridin' wit the King..."

OH YEAH? Usher & His Main Chick Grace Shop For An Apartment...And Is She Hiding Her Baby Bump?!

Posted: 02 Sep 2010 01:10 PM PDT

Well isn't THIS convenient. Remember our exclusive back in April about Usher getting ready to wife up former Def Jam exec Grace Miguel. Especially because we hear she's pregnant?? Well the couple--who publicly deny they are even a couple--were spotted doing something together only couples tend to do: Apartment shopping in NYC.

Pics of the two when you read on...

Grace was spotted out in Tribeca with Usher today peeping out real estate. And we all know you don't buy property with someone who's "just a friend". And she also happened to be rocking an oversized fluffy sleeveless blouse. One that could be hiding her baby bump we exclusively reported on this spring.

The two made sure not to arrive to this building in Tribeca right next to each other, but the paps still caught them scouting out the properties:

Well this ought to get even more interesting...
