Here are a few photos of Justin Timberlake on the opening night of his 2007 World Tour – FutureSex/LoveShow! The tour’s opening was at iPay One Center in San Diego on January 8, 2007.

Hehe, anyhow, the show appears to be very interesting by the few photos posted below. Check them out!

The body of legendary soul singer James Brown had yet to be buried on Friday, 19 days after his death, because his family has not yet decided where and how to lay him to rest, said his lawyer. The 73-year-old “King of Soul” died of congestive heart failure in an Atlanta, Georgia, hospital on December 25. His body has been kept at his house in Beach Island, South Carolina, in a temperature-controlled environment, an employee of the Augusta funeral home in charge of his embalmment told AFP. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee’s will was read to his six children on Thursday and would be probated next week, said Brown’s lawyer, Buddy Dallas.

But the place and manner of his burial is still undecided. “The family will announce where the mausoleum is to be built,” said Dallas. “There has been an awful lot of effort devoted to his affairs. It just takes time… The body is well-protected.” Signs of discord among relatives over Brown’s estate were beginning to emerge at the time of a tribute to Brown at the Apollo Theatre in New York on December 28. Brown’s partner, 36-year-old singer Tomi Rae Hynie, who lived with Brown and mothered his youngest son, five-year-old James, said she was barred from entering the star’s house on the day of this death. United States media have reported conflicts over inheritance rights, with a lawyer for Brown questioning the legality of Hynie’s marriage to the singer.

A man has reportedly approached the New York Daily News claiming to have viewed a sex tape of singer Ray-J and Beverly Hills socialite Kim Kardashian, and that it is in the process of being brokered for one million dollars. “It’s your typical graphic sex tape,” he tells the paper, adding “there’s a golden shower at the end.” Kardashian, the daughter of former O.J. Simpson defense lawyer Robert Kardashian and homie of Paris Hilton, has gone on record denying that the sex tape even exists. “There is no tape. It is false,” she was reported as saying. But the Daily News source said: “She and her camp want to decide exactly what gets released and what doesn’t. She is actively involved in its sale, but wishes to do it through a third party.” Kardashian has been linked romantically with rapper The Game and Nick Lachey, among others.

Golden shower? Haha, SMH. I’m mad he pissed on her…

Toni Braxton sued her former personal manager Friday, saying he owes her at least $10 million for maneuvering to have her abandon a long, lucrative relationship with her record company and jump to his own record label. The lawsuit in U.S. District Court in Manhattan accuses Barry Hankerson of putting his financial interests ahead of Braxton’s and using fraud, deception and double-dealing to get her to leave Arista Records.

“Hankerson actively sought to destroy Braxton’s relationship with Arista through underhanded `double-talk,’ telling Braxton that Arista was not interested in working with her anymore, while telling Arista that Braxton no longer wanted to record for Arista,” the lawsuit said.

There was no public telephone listing to reach Hankerson for comment Friday, and a telephone listing for his company, Blackground Records, was not in service. In March 2003, Braxton ended the business relationship she had begun with Arista in 1991, when she signed a contract that led to her 1993 debut album, “Toni Braxton.” That recording rose to No. 1 on the “Billboard 200″ and sold more than 10 million albums worldwide. Braxton received the Grammy Award for best new artist in 1993, and she won Grammys that year and the next for best female R&B vocal performance. The singer said in the lawsuit that she hired Hankerson as her personal manager in late 1997 and a year later the singer negotiated a new five-album deal with Arista, receiving more than $20 million in advances on the records.

» 50 Cent to Release a Line of Condoms
50 Cent wants to put his name to a new line of rubber sheaths and has revealed he is to donate a percentage of the profits to a HIV charity. He said: “The kids become immune when you constantly beat them over the head, ‘Read a book, read a book.’ We have to be a little more creative about it. It’s the same with safe sex. As opposed to being part of a safe sex campaign, I’m going to make condoms and donate a part of the proceeds to HIV awareness.”

Around the time I was unable to update due to my busy schedule a story (rumor) came out about Tyrese and his pregnant girlfriend getting into an altercation, where he ended up punching her. When I first heard of this, I was kind of skeptical because a few sites said he “punched her in the stomache,” while others said that he “punched her in her arm” or something like that. So basically I didn’t really believe it due to the conflict of information. Turns out, the story was heavily exaggerated:

An attorney for the pregnant girlfriend of R&B star Tyrese says recent reports of the artist assaulting her during a fight last Thursday have been greatly exaggerated. TMZ.com first reported that police were investigating the singer/actor after the woman, who has not been identified, called 911 accusing him of punching her in the arm and thigh before jumping in his car and driving away. “Reports Tyrese punched my client — his girlfriend — in the arm, thigh or anywhere else are false,” said Paul Berra ESQ., the woman’s attorney. “It is true, Mr. Gibson and his girlfriend had been arguing. She became very emotional and distressed during the argument and called 911 in an attempt to get a mediator. Mr. Gibson, frustrated, left the home. CONTINUE READING
