PHOTOSHOOT FAB: Selah Marley Steps Into the Modeling World

Posted: 09 Jul 2011 09:15 AM PDT

Fame and talent run rampent throught the Marley clan. The pretty 12-year-old Selah Marley has already been featured in Teen Vogue, and more modeling pics of Lauryn Hill's oldest daughter have surfaced. We have the pics after the jump...

Selah Marley is slowly launching a name for herself in the modeling world. The straight A student (who is a spitting image of her megastar mom) says:

 “I was in a hotel with my dad, and I was just joking around and said, ‘Oh yeah, Daddy, I want to model,’” she recently told Teen Vogue of how she took an interest in modeling. “I don’t know—the camera is just fun.”

 

Very pretty.

In addition to modeling, Selah plays piano, violin, guitar, basketball, gymnastics and does ballet.

I see another star in the making....

UH OH! Hines Ward Arrested For DUI In Dekalb County

Posted: 09 Jul 2011 07:08 AM PDT

"DWTS" winner and Pittsburgh Steeler Hines Ward was arrested for DUI this morning in Dekalb County. GA. Deets inside......

 

NFL baller and ballroom champion Hines Wards was busted in Dekalb County, GA this morning for a DUI.  TMZ reports he was held on a $1,000 bond which he posted and was released.

Stupid thing to do Hines.  Especially with the lockout pending.

Remember when he was falsely arrested back in May after the car he was in was mistakenly reported as "stolen"?  Guess he didn't get "scared straight" enough.

We will keep you posted as this story develops....

EXCLUSIVE: Rihanna's LOUD Tour Is On FIRE....LITERALLY!!

Posted: 08 Jul 2011 09:55 PM PDT

This ish couldn't get any more literal.  Rihanna was on fire tonight as her Nivea sponsored LOUD tour rolled into Dallas. And we're not talking about her sexy performances.

Hours ago, Rihanna was rushed off during her performance as a FIRE broke out on stage!  Our exclusive deets inside....

 

A serious pyrotechnic freak accident just popped off at the American Airlines Arena in Dallas.  And it left little red Rih Rih almost caught in FLAMES!

We've learned that immediately right after Rihanna performed "California King Bed" less than an hour ago, a pyrotechnic glitch caused sparks to go flying on the top of the stage.  Sparks started flying down hitting her piano and instruments, and she ran off the stage to avoid getting hit. 

Right then, a spark caught on to a curtain or wire, and a huge part of the stage literally went up in flames!  Firefighters and the fire marshal quickly hit the stage to put out the flames.

No one was hurt, but all concert goers were quickly ushered out of the arena.  Rih was about 75% of the way through her show.  And she's skipping her usual post-show meet-n-greet session with VIP fans tonight and is heading straight to her next stop in Houston instead.

Yeah, we'd jet off too if our precious wig almost saw the gates to Jesus. 

Glad everyone's OK!

 

LOL at someone saying to go get a fire extinguisher....

Damon Dash's Baby Momma Accuses Him Of Being A Deadbeat And Keeping His Son Out Of College

Posted: 08 Jul 2011 04:00 PM PDT

 

Linda Williams, the mother of Damon Dash's 19-year-old son, is calling him a deadbeat and battling Damon to pay court ordered payments of $425 per week to help support their son. Deet inside....

Linda Williams is claiming that Damon Dash's deadbeat antics are keeping their son Damon Dash Jr. out of college.

She told RadarOnline that Damon has interfered with their son going to college because this would mean he will have to continue to pay child support.

"I just want Damon Dash to do the right thing by his son and pay his support and help me get him in college. My son got into Five Towns College in Dix Hills, NY, on a $30,000 scholarship recently to do music, but his father did not want him to go even although it would not have cost him anything.

"He keeps telling him 'tell your mom to drop the child support case and get out of court' when my son just wants to be a normal teenager and go to college. His father recently set him up with some DJ gigs in New York, and I'm worried that he falls in with a bad crowd and gets involved with drugs and alcohol. My son loves music and ideally he could do both. He does not hate his father or anything like that, but he wants more guidance from him. His father has the money he just needs to do the right thing by his son."

 

What father tries to keep his child out of college?  Either somebody's lying or there's more foolishness to this story.  This indeed isn't the first complaint Linda has lodged calling Dame a deadbeat daddy over the years.

I'm sure there are two sides to this but EITHER WAY Damon...I need you to do better and support your son and get him off to school before they withdraw that scholarship.

IN CASE YOU CARE: Gucci's Back!

Posted: 08 Jul 2011 01:15 PM PDT

After a hiccup in his let out a few days ago, Gucci Mane is officially out of the slammer.  And he wasted no time taking his explicit "welcome back" words to Twitter.

 

Sigh...

Just when we thought we were free of Gucci's ever so profound lyrics and voice, he's BACK.  He's been in lock up for the last 2 months in Fulton County jail after being charged with misdemeanor battery when he pushed a woman from his moving car.  And, in urn, violated his probation.

And around 4:30AM this morn, he was let loose to roam the streets and airwaves again.  How did he celebrated his first hours of freedom?  With these tweets:

I'm back bitch gucci back bitch did u miss me or miss my raps bitch...
IT'S GUCCI TIME!!!!!! BIG DAWGS BACK!!!!!! BURRRRRRRR!!!!!!
 

He's also having a "homecoming party" at Club Fathom in Chattanooga, Tennessee tonight.  Stay classy!

BONUS:

Gucci's homie Waka Flocka is still serious about "returing" from the game.  He did an interview with Ryan Cameron this morning in ATL where he said he's rather work in WalMart than stay in this rap game.  Be our guest Waka...

 

MAGAZINE FAB: Viola Davis Covers The Augst 2011 Issue Of ESSENCE Magazine

Posted: 08 Jul 2011 12:19 PM PDT

Actress Viola Davis covers the August 2011 issue of ESSENCE Magazine and we have the gorgeous photo of The Help star inside....

Oscar -nominated for the movie Doubt, Viola Davis is having a big year in Hollywood.  She's currently promoting the feature film The Help. 

In the mag, Viola talks about the struggles black women face saying,

“As Black women, we’re always given these seemingly devastating experiences -- experiences that could absolutely break us. But what the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the master calls the butterfly. What we do as Black women is take the worst situations and create from that point…”

And Essence's press release states:

Award-winning actress Viola Davis is having the time of her life as one of Hollywood’s hottest stars. Despite her evident radiance and mind-blowing talent, she has had to come to grips with a culture that seldom makes dark-skinned women feel like “the chosen one.” However, during her recent successes—including her Oscar nominated performance in the film Doubt—she feels more like a “princess” now than ever before. As she anticipates the release of her new movie, The Help, Davis shares her story of growth and acceptance with writer Lola Ogunnaike.

Check out the magazine on newsstand soon.

FOOLYWANG MATERIAL: She's Back! Khia Uses Her "ABCs" To Diss Amber Rose, Debra Lee And Rick Ross

Posted: 08 Jul 2011 09:41 AM PDT

In a very explicit, outrageous and hilarious (you know, the usual Khia ish) rant posted on her blog, Khia blasts everyone.  Again.  Everybody from Amber Rose to Rick Ross to Debra Lee get caught in the attack. See Khia using her ABCs to diss the industry.....

We already knew that Khia has a nasty mouth on her, and now we know she has a nasty pen (keyboard) too.  In a very explicit rant posted to her blog, Khia drops the ABCs, using each letter of the alphabet to attack a fellow celebrity/artist/reality star.   She calls Beyonce a street walker, accuses Trina of having several STDS and calls Waka Flocka a joke.

Some of the things she said were outright mean and others were actually funny.  Here are a few choice quotes:

Letter R-Rick Ross: Is you really selling dope on your IPhone?????? I did see you at the Tupac center but I am not sure if you were just there to promote that tired ass single or there to support Queen Affine and the children because all the money you claim you got, I didn’t see you cut no check…..I’m a little sick of you talking about dope and fucking bitches in the ass on all your songs! Listen ladies, a straight man would not want to violate your ass, bypassing all that good pussy to go straight to the asshole…… I got a problem with that!!!!! Ass is ass…..If you try one, you tried them all!!!! Once again, boy pussy it is….Cocaine is a powerful drug!

 

 

Is it just me of does Khia seem bitter?  One thing is for sure, she doesn't pull any punches when she lashes out. Somebody get this chick a reality show on Stank TV.  Gotta love it...
