Guess Who…

May 24, 2007

Blind item via Myra Panache:

When female rappers Foxy and Kim were hot several years ago, another female rapper was desperate to achieve their fame but she never came close. Instead, she was on the outside looking in at the success of Foxy and Kim. She yearned and envied their fame and popularity but this didn’t stop her from giving the illusion of success due to celebrity peer pressure. She was fronting all over town, telling people she paid cash for her home, when in reality, the house was rented. Her bling was also borrowed (from jewelers) and her luxurious car was leased. Her fans had no idea that she was barely scrapping by. Her rap career is just about over and it’s doubtful that she’ll ever receive royalty checks (for significant amounts) because the majority of her record sales were low. For survival, recently, she has begun to date dope boys (exclusively) to help out with the bills. Hint: This female rapper is very well known in the black community and it’s not Remy Ma.

Jay-Z Doesn’t Pay…

May 24, 2007

…his employees according to Celeste Williams, a former server at the 40/40 Club. She’s accused the jigga man and the company that owns the 40/40, Twenty Ones, Inc., of not even paying her minimum wage. She also alleges that the club held back tips from servers and that she got stiffed for overtime she worked. Furthermore, Williams’ lawyers say in the complaint that there are “more than 100” other 40/40 employees who will join the lawsuit. Williams is seeking unspecified damages. For more info go to TMZ.com.

Damn Jay…ain’t no love in the heart of the city or the 40/40 Club, huh?

Oh yeah, Mr. 99 Problems and Damon Dash have been hit with a $15 million dollar lawsuit by a Philadelphia man, who claims that Roc-A-Fella stole the concept of the hit movie State Property from his novel. For more info go to AllHipHop.com.

Diddy & 1/3 of BBD Threatened…

May 22, 2007

…Laurie Ann Gibson (the choreographer from the Making The Band Series) with a chair.
At least that’s what she says in the complaint she filed with the NYPD about a week ago. In it she claims that during a taping of the show she got into a heated argument with Diddy and celebrity judge Michael Bivins over the lackluster performance of the TV show’s (Making The Band 4) latest group of contestants. Supposedly, during the argument Bivins held Gibson while Diddy threatened her with a chair. For more info go to NY Daily News.

I guess she said “Boom, Boom, Kat” when he told her to say “Boom, Boom, Kat, Kat.” I often forget that extra “Kat” when I’m practicing my hip-hop moves to Darren’s Dance Grooves. But hey, I don’t have to worry about the wrath of Diddy…If he told you once, he told you twice…

Guess Who…

May 21, 2007

Blind item via Myra Panache:

Despite this famous woman having a new boyfriend she still can’t seem to get over her ex. She is seriously still hung up on her ex-boyfriend. It’s as if her ex-boyfriend continues to have a spell on her. Sadly, she would drop her new boyfriend quickly if her ex summoned her back. When she’s with friends, she talks non-stop about her ex and hardly mentions her current man. To make matters worse, she’s been complaining to girlfriends that she’s really bothered by her ex-boyfriend’s current relationship and wonders why he couldn’t be in love with her the way he seems to be in love with his current girlfriend. She’s seething with jealousy and envy.

Sisqo Is Angry…

May 17, 2007

…because Fredericks of Hollywood no longer carries dragon print thongs for men. Okay, not really…he’s actually lashing out at R&B heavyweights Usher & R. Kelly on the diss song “One Finga,” which is currently playing on no radio station on Earth.

He better calm his little ass down considering the fact that Usher has that magic wielding Orc by his side.

…celebrated Wednesday night at Buddakan in NYC., as Ciara has been named “The New Face of Rocawear Ladies.”
…last time I checked Rocawear was on the same level as FUBU and South Pole. Maybe I’m just getting old…nawww, Rocawear is about as fashionable as Cross Colours right now.
