Bow Wow (sans Omarion) Out & About in NYC

Are my eyes deceiving me? Are these photos manipulated with a little help from Photoshop? No seriously … where’s Omarion? Bow Wow has actually been photographed without Omarion! Someone document this please. Here the pint-sized wanna-be rapper can be seen clutching his murse as he strolls the streets of New York with his bodyguard.

WHO IS MONEY? » Remember her? She sung on Timbaland’s late Shock Value album and I did a music feature on her not to long ago … Blackground’s new artist Money is back with “Who Am I?,” a Vanity 6-esque viral single that can also be streamed via her MySpace, this could even be a sample (correct me if I’m wrong) but I love it! Anything, ANYTHING Prince is absolute gold in my book !

In an effort to promote her Back II Basics album, which I loved, Christina Aguilera released “Dirrty” to Yahoo! Music. The DVD “Back II Basics: Live Down Under” tour is in stores now so if you liked the album you should go pick up the DVD =D

Will.i.am, Quincy Jones, Omarion, Akon, Wyclef Jean, Beyonce, Mary J. Blige and Pharrell Williams talk about their influence with Michael Jackson and his Best Selling-album to date Thriller.

Dammit, Laurie Ann Gibson, no means N-O! Didn’t I tell you? Stick to choreography, avoid singing! You are such a good dancer but PLEASE stray away from singing dear, it’s just not your calling, AT ALL TBCH. There is nothing new about your video/style, so early-Janet, and that’s being nice! The vocals? Like I said before; it sounds like an even more watered-down version of Fergie. I just don’t get it! Hell, are they launching the record contracts out of those, you know, cannon-T-shirt-launcher things? Shit – I can get a deal if I start rapping about back packs and call it “My Humps (remix)” and it will be number one on the countdown.. which is very sad.

Sonya Norwood Sues Kim Kardashian

Ray-J’s mom filed a lawsuit Monday against her almost daughter-in-law (lol) Kim Kardashian accusing her of running up more than $120,000 in credit card charges without permission, reports People. The suit, which also names Kardashian’s siblings Khloe, Kourtney and Robert Jr., alleges they ran up the charges on Ms. Norwood’s card in 2006 and 2007. Sonya wants the cash … and 10% interest. In a statement, the Kardashians, of course, denied the allegations:

“The charges against the Kardashians are meritless,” the statement said. “Both Kim and Khloe were employed by the Norwoods and never used their credit cards without their express authorization. The Kardashian family looks forward to proving the absurdity of these claims in a court of law.”

That damn Kimberly can’t stay out of trouble, can she?

Results are still being finalized, so I won’t be able to post a full rundown of percentages and what-not until tomorrow, but according to a post on Barack Obama’s blog via his official website, the Illinois Senator has been named the winner of Super Tuesday by his campaign manager David Plouffe.

By winning a majority of delegates and a majority of the states, Barack Obama won an important Super Tuesday victory over Senator Clinton in the closest thing we have to a national primary. From Colorado and Utah in the west to Georgia and Alabama in the south to Senator Clinton’s backyard in Connecticut, Obama showed that he can win the support of Americans of every race, gender, and political party in every region of the country. That’s why he’s on track to win Democratic nomination, and that’s why he’s the best candidate to defeat John McCain in November.

UPDATE: The results have been finalized, and although Barack did win the most states, he DID NOT win the most delegates from Super Tuesday, which contradicts this post. But it was pretty close, as Hillary only beat him by 9 delegate votes. As far as the overall race goes, Sen. Hillary Clinton currently has 823 delegate votes, while Sen. Barack Obama only has 741 delegate votes.

But just to clarify, BARACK OBAMA DID NOT WIN SUPER TUESDAY!

Flavor Flav to Invade your TVs Again, Even After “Flavor of Love” Wraps…

Looks like Flavor Flav isn’t done being an “actor!” If you think that shit on VH1 is reality, then I have some swamp land near Paris Hilton’s malibu mansion to sell you. Anyway, MyNetworkTV has ordered 13 episodes of a new sitcom called “Under One Roof,” which stars William Drayton aka Flavor Flav, that will debut in Spring ‘08. The series will feature Flav in the role of Calvester Hill, who is an ex-con who moves in with his wealthy, conservative brother Walter. Upon his arrival, Hill starts bringing his old prison buddies by the house, teaching his nephew how to be a gangster rapper, and clashing with Walter’s wife Ashley.

“I am real excited about my new sitcom Under one Roof,” Flav said in a statement announcing the deal. “I want to thank MyNetworkTV for believing in your boy because we are about to blow this out of the water. I am about to take MyNetworkTV and make it MY network.”

Under One Roof is currently in production in Toronto. Does anyone else see the resemblance of “Fresh Prince,” which is currently in syndication on Nick-At-Nite? I mean, minus the ex-con bit … but still the same general idea.
