MACY GRAY – BIG » Love Macy Gray, she’s a true maverick to me with her sound, style, and genuinely soulful raspy voice that you can’t help but love! Her 4th studio album, Big, which features guest appearences by Will.i.am (vocals, programming); Fergie , Natalie Cole (vocals) and Justin Timberlake (keyboards) will be releasing March 27. Now here are a few ripped tracks that I personally enjoyed myself starting with ‘Strange Behavior’ (lol) I was chuckling through the whole song. I could not help it, it’s real funny how she is so friggin BLUNT with it, and how she shot his ass – you have to listen! It is definitely some strange behavior in this whole bluesy karmic scenario she sings about on this record, LOL! Next is ‘Get Out’ featuring keyboard man Justin Timberlake, the rock anthem of the summer, snares, bass, cymbals – the percussion is out of this world good gawd! Then there’s ‘U Make Me’ featuring Floetry, another rock inspired record, with a heavy beat, you can bob your head to. Floetry was also a very nice touch to this one. And finally there’s ‘Shooby Doo’, yes, a very nice slow jam for you and your girl/ boy to rock to. Over all I give it a 3/5

A lot can change in 28 days, or so they say! After checking into the Promises rehab facility in Malibu, California a month ago from today (Feb 21), Britney Spears has officially been released. Upon her exit from Promises, Britney Spears’ manager, Larry Rudolph, told the world she had successfully completed her rehab program, and now she is asking for privacy while she rebuilds her life. Now, here’s the thing … the actual program for normal, non-Britney people is like 45 days. So the big question remains: Was 28 days long enough for Britney Spears to turn her life around? We’ll find out this weekend! *wink*

Vivica A. Fox has danced with the stars. Now, she has ridden with the police, as well. The 40-year-old actor was busted Tuesday night for drunk driving after the California Highway Patrol pulled her over for speeding, according to an arrest report obtained by E! News. Per the CHP’s report, officers spotted Fox’s silver Cadillac SRX traveling eastbound at 10:57 p.m. on Los Angeles’ 101 Freeway “at a high rate of speed” and drifting in and out of its lane. After clocking the vehicle going 80 miles-per-hour, officers pulled Fox over and observed that she was exhibiting “signs of alcohol intoxication.” The Kill Bill Vol. 1 assassin failed a series of field sobriety tests, the CHP said, and was taken to the L.A. Police Department’s Van Nuys Jail, where she took two Breathalyzer tests that showed her blood-alcohol level was higher than California’s 0.08 percent legal limit. Fox was booked and released on her own recognizance. She will also have to appear in court at a later date.

My question is .. what the hell was she doing out so EARLY driving drunk?? Most DUIs don’t happen ’til, say .. 2, 3, 4 A.M. Shit it was barely 11 PM and she was drunk! Haha must’ve been one helluva party!

British soul star Joss Stone is racing to explain a saucy photo in the booklet accompanying her new album because fans think it confirms a romance with producer Raphael Saadiq. The sexy singer and Saadiq appear naked, in an embrace, with their bodies painted for the eye-catching shot – but Stone insists it’s supposed to be an artistic statement, and nothing sexual.

Stone says, “It’s a picture that everybody kind of looks at it sexually, but it isn’t… He (Saadiq) is from Oakland, I’m from Devon, England; he is 40, I am 19; he is American, I’m English. It’s, like, two completely different people. It says something and I wanted to say something, otherwise there’s no point in doing it.”

Okay, Joss, we believe you =) You’re sitting butt ass nekkid on top of Raphaeel Saadiq, but there’s nothing sexual about that. It’s art I tell you, ART! Click the pic on the left to see what I’m talking about…

Hot damn! Just as I was looking for a working video of him talking shit about artists like Christina Aguilera and Joss Stone, saying that they “fuck for tracks,” he and his people issue some bullshit “apology” statement. I guess I need to step up on my gossip game, but it’s whatever…

“Every action generates an equal and opposite reaction. My statement about Christina Aguilera and Joss Stone was a reaction to an incident I care not to discuss in any forum, and while I may have felt justified, I do owe an apology to Christina, Joss and their families. The comments I made about Christina Aguilera and Joss Stone were purely an act of retaliation not of malice or cruel intent. As we all have our boiling points, I sincerely apologize as this is not my character nor should I have let anyone’s actions push me to this limit. I have let my family, friends, employees and business associates down with my actions. All content and any malicious statements that were in my control have been removed from outlets that may have posted this. Please accept this as my formal statement and apology to all parties involved.”

When are you fools gonna learn? 2007 is not the year to talk shit on video tape and not think it’s gonna be everywhere on the web! Hello, YouTube is alive and well and us gossip bloggers don’t mind assisting in its spread around the world. Think before you speak ;-) THAT’S my only advice…. Oh by the way, most, if not all, video outlets have taken the video down, so if you haven’t seen it yet .. you probably won’t, sorry!

 

Now this a FOL star worth looking at, and hearing about! Word on the streets is Deelishis is coming out with her very own women’s denim line, and she can be seen above rockin the jeans showing off her *clears throat* ASSets. She looks damn good too!! Oh, by the way ladies … the name is “D-Cut Jeans” .. CLICK HERE for more information…

Uhm, I like Rihanna and everything but this performance is not so good. I’m just glad she doesn’t sound like that now! This is a video of her performing “Hero” by Mariah Carey back in 2004 at a pageant. Even with her mediocre singing, she ended up winning! Check it out above…

Simon Doesn’t Have Enough Meat for Paula
American Idol star Paula Abdul insists she would never sleep with her fellow judge Simon Cowell because his manhood isn’t big enough. The singer has a love/hate relationship with English music mogul Cowell, but insists she doesn’t find him attractive. When TV host David Letterman declared Cowell believed Abdul wants to have sex with him, she laughed it off. Abdul says, “You are right about that. But that will never happen – because his nickname is ‘Small Ben’.”

Carmen Electra “Hates the Sea” ??
Carmen Electra found life on the set of Baywatch traumatic because she has a fear of water. Electra played lifeguard Lani McKenzie alongside Pamela Anderson in the hit series, but admits her time on the show was hampered by her hatred of the sea. She says, “I wasn’t the greatest swimmer in the world. It wasn’t easy trying to look good with the water getting in my eyes and up my nose.” CONTINUE READING
