Word on the sidewalk is that Lil Wayne has himself a new girlfriend! According to our pal FreddyO, Weezy and Young Money’s Shanell (aka SNL) are an item and are madly in love.

I was told by my sources: “Wayne  is so in love with that girl. I don’t know what she did, but he is just mush when it comes to her. He loves her drive, personality, and  the fact that she’s so talented.  She’s one of his best friends…”

Shanell better watch out, we all know how fertile Lil Wayne is! If anyone can get their million men to march, we’d bet our money on Dwayne “I wish I could f**k every girl in the world” Carter.

Lil Wayne brought along his Young Money crew to BET’s “the Mo’Nique Show” and introduced everyone to Mo and her viewing audience.

In the interview, a very subdued Nicki Minaj explained mixtapes, talked about her upcoming project and talked about how nervous she was the first time she met Wayne. She also talked about why wayne calls her “the Mistress (aka Nikki Lewinsky)” and told Mo’Nique how territorial she is when the late night TV host joked about becoming a part of the Young Money crew.

In Wayne’s interview, he discussed his work ethic (he says he gets NO sleep) and why he started Young Money. He also talked about what he’d be doing if he weren’t rapping:

“School. I’d probably be in school studying Law.”

After everyone was introduced and appropriately interviewed, Young Money brought out Lloyd and took to the stage to perform their latest single “Bed Rock.” Continue reading to check it (and the interviews) out!

R&B singer Omarion is hitting out at rumors claiming he was “dropped” from Lil Wayne’s Young Money Entertainment for leaking a song [ I Get It In ]. He says he asked to be released from his contract. He took to his Twitter Thursday (Aug 20) to tell his side of the story.

“How kan I fall or get dropped when lam “gravity”…and jah is by my side being tha force that’s driving and parachuting my arriving plateau … What up tweep’s good day.There’s alot of people thinking i got dropped from Y.m that has never nor will ever b the kase I asked to b…realeased,I didnt get dropped.I wish wayne and all of Y.m good luck for there future. There r no hard feelings,business is business and I..made a decision that I felt was best for me..ALBUM OLLUSION still koming video still koming really soon luv yall thanx for holdin me down!”

Meanwhile, Omarion’s former labelmate Shanell says she wishes him the best of luck because she’s always been a fan.

“I don’t know, everything happens so quick,” Shanell said about Omarion’s departure. “Everything happens so quick but I’ve always been a fan of Omarion. So whether he’s with us or not with us, I hope the best for his career. I haven’t been able to work with him yet…[With Bow Wow,] that’s the homie. That’s the homie. We’ve worked together before. He’s actually with Cash Money. It’s a whole family but it’s two separate situations. It’s Cash Money and Young Money.”

Something tell us that it’s definitely no coincidence that Omarion up and decided he wanted to leave Young Money just 3 days after Bow Wow signed with Cash Money Records. And wasn’t he just moonwalking on stage with Young Money last Friday (Aug 14) in California at the America’s Most Wanted Tour? That was a pretty damn quick change of events…
