Apparently the cat is out of the bag and reality star Heidi Montag from MTV’s “The Hills,” and most recently NBC’s “I’m A Celebrity,” will be posing for the September issue of Playboy Magazine. A source spilled the beans to People Magazine, but didn’t reveal too many details, other than it being “tastefully nude,” while reps for Montag and the magazine itself had no comment.
Meanwhile, Heidi and her husband Spencer Pratt spoke with MTV News early Monday (Jun 15) and even though they didn’t confirm the news, they didn’t necessarily deny it either.
“If I were to do Playboy, it would be a huge honor,” she told MTV News on Monday (June 15), just hours after her and husband Spencer Pratt’s dust-up with Al Roker on the “Today” show. “Many iconic women have done it: Charlize Theron, Sharon Stone did it, Marilyn Monroe. So it’s a very amazing, well-known magazine. I would love to do it, but I would do it very tastefully. I think you would have to see, if I did do it.” (Note: Theron’s photographs were purchased by Playboy and published over the actress’ objections.)

R&B singer Lloyd says that he’s “ready for a change” and has taken steps to distance himself from The Inc. after a 5-year run with the now troubled record label, who recently announced that Ashanti was no longer a part of the imprint.
“I’m ready for a change,” Lloyd said in a statement released to the press. “There’s no bad blood. I just feel I need to take more control over my career and get a fresh start. Hopefully Irv can understand my position.”

Chris Brown and his buddies (peep Teyana Taylor on the right … not sure who the dude is in the middle) made a statement Sunday (Jun 14) night by looking like a group of stick-up kids on their way to some “cops and robbers” themed party. But they weren’t on their way to some crazy theme party … they were in fact sitting courtside at Game 5 of the 2009 NBA Finals in Orlando, FL and watched as the Lakers took the championship trophy from the Magic in a final score of 99 to 86.
Other celebrities at the game were Serena Williams and Chris Tucker. Continue reading to check out all of the pics!

Remy Ma still feels as though she’s innocent, despite her being found guilty of shooting her best friend in the stomach over $3,000, which subsequently landed her an 8-year prison sentence. In a letter penned and submitted to Global Grind from the incarcerated rapper herself, she talks about what it’s like waking up every day behind bars and not being able to do whatever you want to, when you want to and how you want to do it.
I always find myself thinking about what I was doing a year ago, two years ago, five years ago today. I never remember exactly where till I find myself imagining where I would be today. I rarely listen to the radio because it’s sort of depressing. Not being able to record is stressful not because I’m a rapper but because that was my way of venting and expressing myself. So I write a lot! So much that now I have a callous on my finger from holding a pen. I guess I got used to texting my rhymes!

Sheree Whitfield of Bravo’s “Housewives of Atlanta” fame had her home foreclosed back in March, but she had no idea the person she hired (Sheila Rashad – pictured to the left) to help her with her situation with the bank/mortgage company would steal her belongings right from from under her nose! Apparently, the Sheila Rashad lady was a big fraud and led Sheree on and had her thinking that she was handling business (she even had her sign FAKE forms!) when in fact, she wasn’t.
And when Sheree found out she only had 6 days to move her children and their belongings from their 10,000 square foot Atlanta home in early March ‘09, Sheila rented a moving truck and cleaned house (literally) after Sheree moved what she could.
Anyway, this is the full story via FreddyO:
Bob was under court order to maintain ALL household expenses. He failed to do so. Nor did he offer to pay the child support that he had not payed going on almost two years. I met Sheila Rashad through Bobs mom. (seem like at set too me) and we began to occasionally communicate regarding business around Oct 2008. I then received foreclosure notice (last wk in Dec) saying that my house would begin foreclosure on the date of Feb 3rd. All this happened the week after Bob and I went into mediation in which he tried to renegotiate my settlement from the judge and offer me cash from the sell of the house that he knew he was losing because of nonpayment of the mortgage.

Apparently, recent reports of Kanye West and his model chick girlfriend Amber Rose calling it quits are completely false. Necole Bitchie says Yeezy stopped by Deliciously Vintage in Chicago over the weekend and bought some vintage clothing and accessories for his boo, Amber. When asked who he was buying the clothes for, the owners of the boutique said he responded with “You know who this is for! She’ll be rocking it in Paris, watch!”
And then there’s this brand new pic of the two of them together on the set of Drake’s “Best I Ever Had” video shoot, which was done yesterday and is actually being directed by Mr. Kanye West himself (how dope!). We’ll see how good his skills are with directing when the video releases. But for those who are wondering, YES … Kanye & Amber are still on.

So it’s official … Usher and Tameka are over! Recently confirmed reports state that the R&B singer filed for divorce Friday (Jun 12) to begin the process of ending his two-year marriage to Tameka Foster. The petition, which was filed at Superior Court in Atlanta, did not list a reason for the split but insiders close to couple say they are not surprised.
“No one I’ve spoken to is surprised,” a source close to the couple tells PEOPLE. “As bad as this is gonna sound, it was never a matter of ‘I wonder if they’ll divorce,’ but more like ‘I wonder WHEN they’ll divorce.’”
Several sources paint a picture of a troubled marriage that started unraveling even before the couple’s wedding in September 2007.
