Mos Def fighting with the paparazzi outside LAX in Los Angeles (October 29th 2009)

Apparently the paparazzi were the last group of people rapper Mos Def wanted to see last Thursday afternoon (Oct 29).

He and his family were making their way to their vehicle after touching down in Los Angeles via LAX Airport and Mr. Def (real name: Dante Smith) didn’t appreciate all of the flashing lights so he did what any angry black man in distress would do … he lashed out and judging by these pictures he looked like he wanted to pop a mofo in the face. We’re guessing it was because he had his family with him. Don’t mess with a black man and his family!

Sharon Osbourne attacks Megan Hauserman

SHARON OSBOURNE BEING INVESTIGATED BY THE LAPD » The Los Angeles Police Department is investigating an incident that happened this past Sunday (Dec. 14th), reportedly involving Charm School: Rock of Love host Sharon Osbourne and contestant Megan Hauserman, during the recording of the VH1 reality series’ finale show.

Allegedly, words were exchanged between both Sharon and Megan, and when Megan told Sharon that she’s “only famous for managing a brain dead rock star,” all hell broke loose, according to TMZ. Sharon then lunged at Megan, scratching and pulling her hair, so much that Megan had to be taken to a hospital. TMZ cameras caught her leaving the ER with a sling on her left arm and plugs of hair missing from her head.

We hear Megan is pressing charges, but so far, none have been filed yet. Calls to VH1 and Sharon’s people were not immediately returned. The moral of the story is … don’t f**k with the Osbournes!!
