| Posted: 12 Jun 2013 08:29 AM PDT Now that 2 Chainz is out of jail, after being booked for Promethazine possession, some incriminating pictures have surfaced! See pics of the rapper "allegedly" engaging in bad behavior and get the deets on Chad Ochocinco begging a judge to reconsider her 30-day ruling inside... We told you yesterday that 2 Chainz had been booked felon narcotics possession of Promethazine yesterday. And now, there's this...
According to TMZ, 2 Chainz posted footage on the social media site VINE on June 9 and June 10 (before the arrest) which show some questionable behavior. In one photo, he's seen puffing on a joint. And since folks still forget sometimes weed is illegal, they're now blasting it on social networks. You'll recall that TSA caught him at the airport with less than an ounce of weed (plus he tweeted about how good the weed in San Francisco was). And in another photo, there's a table stacked with big "Polar Pop" cups and what appears to be a bottle of Promethazine! Very sloppy. As of now, the rapper has been was freed after posting $10K bail yesterday and after a bumpy week (which included a robbery), he used Twitter to tell fans, "Nobody took Anything from me, i didn't get shot, I'm not in jail, Don't know wut else to tell ya. Sorry if I disappointed anyone, maybe next time." We just think this ish looks really trifling. It's one thing to engage in bad behavior, it's a whole other thing to promote it on social media. Now these pics may really bite him. Good luck pleading "Not Guilty" 2 Chainz..... Watch the "I'm Different" rapper getting released from jail here:
In other jail mishaps.... Chad Ochocinco and his lawyer have filed a motion asking a judge to reconsider her decision to jail him for 30 days, after he slapped his lawyer on the rear end. According to TMZ, Adam Swickle, the lawyer who was on the receiving end of Chad's booty tap, filed docs claiming that Chad meant no disrespect, and it was simply an athelete's way of praising someone. While that's all fine and good...Chad is missing the fact that he shouldn't have been celebrating a damn thing at all....when you in front the judge about a probation violation on a DOMESTIC VIOLENCE CASE. Calm down and fall back when in court. Now, a hearing has been set for Monday, and we'll all find out if the judge has had a change of heart. So far, public opinion seems to be on Chad's side as most folks think he's didn't deserve 30 days in jail. Us? Yes, it wasan excessive punishment. But we do believe the judge did it for a reason of setting an example of how people should act in a courtroom. Let's not celebrate anything while dealing with a domestic violence case. Cool? Cool.

| Posted: 12 Jun 2013 07:31 AM PDT Let's preface this ish by saying we actually would NOT be surprised about any of this (we have no receipts yet to prove this story, but...), but this model chick is mad thirsty for likely getting paid by Star Magazine to give this interview.
So Canadian model Leylah Ghobadi is making a major scandalous accusation saying she has had sex with Kanye West....while his baby mama Kim K. has been pregnant....and hit her up for sex as recently as last weekend. And Kanye allegedly told her his relationship with Kim is strictly for publicity. Juicy deets inside... It was only a matter of time before Kanye's "alleged" jumpoffs started flying out the cut faster than an about-to-be-repossessed Bugatti. And the jumpoff who gets the "I'm first to come out about my ho-liciousness!" crown is Leylah Ghobadi, a model from Canada. Chick told Star Magazine that she first met Kanye at his concert in Atlantic City at Revel back in July of 2012. Apparently he spotted her in the crowd whie she was dancing it up, and had a member of his entourage go into the crowd to ask her to meet him backstage and for drinks in Revel's HQ nightclub. This dude was about to do his shenanigans in a public place like that nightclub--that's all open in the middle of the hotel? Chile. #HeDontCurr By the way, Kim was THERE in the VIP balcony section of Kanye's concert that night. Not sure how Kanye expected to get it in with a random jumpoff while his GIRLFRIEND was there in his room, but the way Kim seems to like his disrespectful lyrics toward her, she might have been OK with being ordered to leave the room for a minute. Leylah claims she told Kanye "No" because it was "too rushed." Oh really? But apparently the NEXT night was less of a rush because she took Kanye up on his offer to meet up after his Revel show the very next night. Not sure if Kim was still around that night. Leylah says they ended up making out and next thing she knew they were naked and having sex. She also says Kanye told her that his relationship with Kim was just 'for publicity and nothing serious'. Because jumpoffs have hearts and she wouldn't have done it otherwise....apparently. They met up again for sexcapades in October 2012 in New York before Kanye announced Kim's pregnancy the following NYE. Leylah says Kanye ALSO hit her up just last weekend to reunite for more sexual shenanigans...but she declined. When asked why, she said she knows Kim is pregnant and 'I would never do that to someone.' Bless her and her morals. What does Leylah have to say about revealing all this?
Kim's publicist (of course) says it's not true. But we all know, how you get 'em is how you lose 'em..... Check out Kanye's interestingly laid back answers about his girlfriend during his New York Times interview that came out yesterday..

| Posted: 12 Jun 2013 06:33 AM PDT Lil' Wayne appeared on "Jimmy Kimmel LIVE" last night were he talked about his multiple seizues, his "beef" with the Miami Heat and why he called out Chris Bosh's wife Adrienne earlier this year. Watch the clips inside....
Weezy's year had been filled with ups and downs. Though he's been able to maintain his successful recording career (I Am Not A Human Being II dropped in March), his image has been mired by rumors of drug abuse, multiple seizures and a very public bashing session at All-Star Weekend in Houston. And on "Jimmy Kimmel LIVE" last night, the low-key rapper played hard ball and dishe don his skateboarding skills and when he plans to retire. Here are the highlights:

| Posted: 11 Jun 2013 08:25 PM PDT If you thought Kanye West had a big ego before, wait till you check out his first in depth interview in like, forever, with the New York Times. Go inside to see why 'Ye can make being totally full of yourself seem kinda sexy... Mr. West is ready to embark on a new era....the era of becoming the minimalist rapper who is anti-machine and had tucked himself away to focus on changing the entire landscape of music. And the rapper who comes out of hiding to make a few sidewalk paparazzi appearances with his publicity machine queen girlfriend. Kanye talk about the paradox of his romantic side and why Steve Jobs' death will allow him to take over in some way. The "New Slaves" lyricist spent 3 days interviewing with NYT columnist Jon Caramanica, all while he was locked down in a Malibu recording studio compound finishing the Yeezy album. Here are the highlights: On why he always demands people to crown him with a role in history: "I think you got to make your case. Seventh grade, I wanted to be on the basketball team. I didn’t get on the team, so that summer I practiced. I was on the summer league. My team won the championship; I was the point guard. And then when I went for eighth grade, I practiced and I hit every free throw, every layup, and the next day I looked on this chart, and my name wasn’t on it. I asked the coach what’s up, and they were like, “You’re just not on it.” I was like, “But I hit every shot.” The next year — I was on the junior team when I was a freshman, that’s how good I was. But I wasn’t on my eighth-grade team, because some coach — some Grammy, some reviewer, some fashion person, some blah blah blah — they’re all the same as that coach. Where I didn’t feel that I had a position in eighth grade to scream and say, “Because I hit every one of my shots, I deserve to be on this team!” I’m letting it out on everybody who doesn’t want to give me my credit." On his beef with the Grammys: "I don’t know if this is statistically right, but I’m assuming I have the most Grammys of anyone my age, but I haven’t won one against a white person. But the thing is, I don’t care about the Grammys; I just would like for the statistics to be more accurate." On how his life struggles (like his mother dying in 2007) have affected his music: "Creative output, you know, is just pain. I’m going to be cliché for a minute and say that great art comes from pain. But also I’d say a bigger statement than that is: Great art comes from great artists. There’s a bunch of people that are hurt that still couldn’t have made the album that was super-polarizing and redefined the sound of radio." On knowing he was going to be a star: "I knew when I wrote the line “light-skinned friend look like Michael Jackson” [from the song “Slow Jamz"] I was going to be a big star. At the time, they used to have the Virgin music [stores], and I would go there and just go up the escalator and say to myself, “I’m soaking in these last moments of anonymity.” I knew I was going to make it this far; I knew that this was going to happen." On his girlfriend Kim Kardashian: "Any woman that you’re in love with or that loves you is going to command a certain amount of, you know, energy. It’s actually easier to focus, in some ways....I’m the type of rock star that likes to have a girlfriend, you know? I’m the type of soul that likes to be in love and likes to be able to focus. And that inspires me." On the backlash he received after appearing on "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" and had Kim throw out her while closet: "That was from a place of love. It’s hard when people read things in a lot of different ways. You know, the amount of backlash I got from it is when I decided to not be on the show anymore. And it’s not that I have an issue with the show; I just have an issue with the amount of backlash that I get. Because I just see like, an amazing person that I’m in love with that I want to help." On his impending fatherhood: "One of the things was just to be protective, that I would do anything to protect my child or my child’s mother. As simple as that....I just don’t want to talk to America about my family. Like, this is my baby. This isn’t America’s baby." On the texture of the music on Yeezus: "It’s like trap and drill and house. I knew that I wanted to have a deep Chicago influence on this album, and I would listen to like, old Chicago house. I think that even “Black Skinhead” could border on house, “On Sight” sounds like acid house, and then “I Am a God” obviously sounds, like, super house. " On his impact on pop culture: “I think what Kanye West is going to mean is something similar to what Steve Jobs means. I am undoubtedly, you know, Steve of Internet, downtown, fashion, culture. Period. By a long jump. I honestly feel that because Steve has passed, you know, it’s like when Biggie passed and Jay-Z was allowed to become Jay-Z.”
Check out the full interview HERE where Kanye explains how he's a "minimalist in a rapper's body", his emotional reaction to speaking on the death of his mother and more.

Just what every kid needs....goldfish snacks everywhere! The family celebrated with a Goldfish themed soccer party at Sun Life Stadium hosted by the Goldfish brand.

Dwyane has been working with the Goldfish brand for the past five years, encouraging kids to get up and get active. Nice! Sports fans know that Dwyane has his hands full as the Heat battle the San Antonio Spurs during the NBA finals, but he STILL made time to treat his son to a big birthday bash! Good dad!

*UPDATE* TMZ reports 2 Chainz was actually booked on felon narcotics possession of Promethazine (used mainly in sizzurp). He only had less than an ounce of weed.  |

| Posted: 11 Jun 2013 11:20 AM PDT Kameelah "Meelah" Williams, who once fronted the 90's girl group 702, is rumored to be the latest "addition" to "R&B Divas: Atlanta". But our sources say it's not true. At least not yet. Get deets on the non denial/denial inside.....
The Atlanta rumor mill has been buzzing about a new addition to the "sanging" chicks of "R&B Divas: Atlanta". We've heard that Kameelah Williams, who rose to fame in the 90s as part of the group 702 ("Get It Together", "Steelo") will be joining the cast for season three. For those who aren't too familiar with Kameelah and her personal life, she has a son with Musiq Soulchild and has been working on solo project in Atlanta, which may included a few tracks with Stevie J. And back in the day, Faith Evans once served as her mentor, with Kameelah singing on Faith's "Burning Up" single and appearing in the video. We reached out to a source on the "R&B Divas: Atlanta" production team who told us, "There have been no additional cast members added to "R&B Divas: Atlanta". Meanwhile, Kameelah's manager told us that they could neither deny nor confirm her casting. Hmmm....it sounds like Kameelah hasn't signed her contract yet or the producers are still "figuring out" her place on the show. Or maybe she's not doing it at all. You'll recall that the producers kept the additions of LaTocha Scott and Angie Stone under wraps for a long time before they officially confirmed them. We'll keep our eyes peeled to see if she pops up during a cameo this season. Meanwhile, "R&B Divas: LA" is set to debut on TvONE July 10 and the "Atlanta" crew wraps up their season on June 19th.
In case you missed it: Meelah released a very underrated single called "I Should Let You Go" produced by the infamous "LAHH ATL" producer Stevie J a few months ago. We actually like the song, which only serves to remind us that there's more to Stevie J than his "bus" of females.

| TUESDAY LOVE! Baltimore Raven Torrey Smith & Fiancée Chanel Williams Reveal Their ENGAGEMENT PICS Posted: 11 Jun 2013 09:52 AM PDT Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Torrey Smith and his fiancee Chanel Williams have revealed their "football themed" engagement pics. See their cutesy photos and Torrey's new Superbowl ring inside! NFL superstar wide receiver Torrey Smith, who helped lead the Baltimore Ravens to victory at Superbowl 2013, is engaged to Chanel Williams. And earlier today, the happy couple released their engagement pics to The Baltimore Sun.
They posed for pics at the famed M&T Bank Stadium where Torrey's road to victory began.
On her Instagram page, Chanel and Torrey paid homage to one of his famous teammates in the above pic. She said, "Ray Lewis tribute! Lol" Loves it! Chanel also revealed that she'll officially become "Mrs. Smith" in exactly 30 days.
And in case you were wondering.....
Torrey did a great job at picking out a ring. But, it's not the only big ass diamond in the family. The Baltimore Ravens just received their Superbowl rings a few days ago. He tweeted, "Thought I gave @libraladii a nice ring until I saw this...."
And before they received their rings, Torrey and his team went to Washington , D.C. where he shook hands with President Obama. Congrats to the couple on their upcoming July wedding.
And just in case Torrey Smith looks a "little" different to you...... He cut off he dreds recently. Either way, we think he's a good looking cat.

| Posted: 11 Jun 2013 08:59 AM PDT Nicki Minaj just unveiled the behind the scenes footage of how she created her first clothing line for KMart. Get a sneak peek of her colorful and corseted line inside, plus what Rihanna was rocking right before she hit the stage last night in Cardiff... Get ready for the local girls of the neighborhood to start walking around in their own corsets, metallic spandex and colorfully printed leggings. Because Nicki Minaj is giving her Barbs a taste of her own wardrobe via her new fashion line -- The Nicki Minaj Collection for Kmart. She released a video showcasing how it all came together, and you get a sneak peek of what to expect in stores:
Nicki said about her designs, "We're definitely working on the leggings that I love for my body so that women, no matter if they're slim or they're thick or whatever, can feel comfortable."
Check out the video below:
And speaking of fashion loving gals, Rihanna showed off her fave asset last night....her booty in cutoff booty shorts.
The sexy pop diva was prepping to hop on stage at a sold out Diamonds World Tour stop in Cardiff. And she paired a pair of sexy Balmain booties and some bunny ears from Maison Michel with her look.
Fab times with her bestie Melissa. But some people weren't as impressed with her fashion antics due to her late antics. While RadarOnline reported she showed up two hours late last night after the show was supposed to begin at 8p (and she was spotted out partying till 4AM the night before), the events team at the stadium tweeted the show started only 30 minutes late. Loving those booties though.
