MJ covers next week’s Jet Magazine — ANYBODY say ANYTHING bad about MJ gettin’ shot. In the issue they talk about MJ planning to release on his Double Diamond-selling album, Thriller (read more here). Thriller is remarkably the top selling album of all time, even today, every year thousands get sold. MJ is indeed the King of Pop — he’s earned that title.
Will Smith hit up MTV’s TRL today to promote his new movie, “I Am Legend.” The film is set to hit theaters this weekend (Friday, December 14th)! I might have to check this one out… Peep more photos from random events after the cut!
Lupe Fiasco returns with his sophomore effort Lupe Fiasco’s The Cool (1st & 15th, Atlantic) which hits stores December 18th, included with Fiasco’s new LP is the first single lifted “Super Star” featuring Matthew Santos and street single “Dumb It Down (which was made into a “virtual buzz” video on Youtube). Now you know I couldn’t wait for this album, ever since Food & Liquor I was hooked! I swear this man is underrated due to lackadaisical promo, every time I would listen to that album and say who’s it by people would be like, “who’s that?” Then I let them HOLD the album and they do not return it. I’m so serious, Fiasco is … the truth! His metaphors and approach are just so stellar and inspirational at the same time! Same case with his latest album, The Cool. I think it’s fairly up to par with F&L. My favourite tracks are “Gold Watch,” “Little Weapon,” “Superstar,” “Go Go Gadget Flow” and “The Coolest.”

Bow Wow and his other half hit up 106 and Park today to deliver a performance of their new song together “Girlfriend” and to promote their joint-album “Face Off,” which hit stores today. The album is currently in competition with Mario’s “Go!” and The Dream’s “Love (Me All Winter) / Hate (Me All Summer). I just hope O didn’t think he was fly with that damn scarf and rocking the “crooked preacha” look! Doesn’t he look like one of those preachers who have about 20 offerings in one service?
Anyhow, my baby Gabrielle Union was there as well to promote her new movie, “The Perfect Holiday,” which will be released tomorrow, December 12th! Gabby’s co-stars in the movie include Queen Latifah, Terrence Howard, Katt Williams, Faizon Love, Morris Chestnut (who also appeared with Gabby), and more.
 
Uhm, yeah … the last time I checked, Paris Hilton and “Hero” didn’t belong in the same context, but whatever. The popular socialite is being hailed as a hero after “rescuing” a little person injured as part of an Oompa Loompa act during Art Basel Miami Beach this past Saturday night, the NY Daily News is reporting.
The shocking accident happened during a Beacher’s Madhouse performance, sponsored by Ariva, at Cameo nightclub. According to our witness, the unruly crowd shoved performer Robin Sherwood – in full costume and orange makeup – into a metal stage support that sliced open his leg. But only Hilton seemed to notice that Sherwood was in real trouble.
“Paris screamed for help and jumped up to move everyone away from him,” says our witness. “She held Robin’s hand and said the sweetest things to keep him calm. She stayed with him until he was safely in the ambulance on his way to the hospital.” Sherwood needed 50 stitches and is recovering at the Versace mansion in South Beach.
Yeah, it looks like they’ll use that word for just about anyone now-a-days. I spared the life of a squirrel this morning on my way to school. Does that make me a hero?
QUEEN LATIFAH AND JEANETTE JENKINS (HER RUMORED GIRLFRIEND OF 4 YEARS!)There have been numerous rumors about Queen Latifah and her sexuality, but recently the rumors have escalated into her potentially marrying her longtime girlfriend.
Media Take Out ((insert eye-roll here)) is reporting that the Queen recently popped the question to her girlfriend of 4 years. A formal public announcement is supposed to follow very soon, which means that home girl will finally be coming out of the closet. Good for her! If it’s true, of course lol…
Are you surprised about hearing the news? Will your feelings about her change at all if this turns out to be true? Tell us how you feel in the comments!!
Queen Latifah is currently on the roster with Gabrielle Union, Morris Chestnut, Faizon Love, Katt Williams, Terrence Howard, and more, for the new movie The Perfect Holiday, which hits theaters this Wednesday, December 12th!
Well folks, it appears as though the whole Michael Vick saga is finally over! The (currently) ex-quarterback for the Atlanta Falcons went before a judge this morning, and was sentenced to 23 months in prison. His original sentence would have been 24 months (2 years) but Vick went in early a month ago, so he’s already served a month. I know he’s pretty damn happy, though! They were originally talking about giving dude 4 – 5 years! I hope he’s learned his lesson from all of this though. I hate to see people get caught back up into the same shit once they’re back on the streets…
In other Michael Vick news, it’s been reported that the place where he has all of these dog fights has recently become a tourist attraction … no lie! The house, which was purchased for $750,000 by investor Ray Todd is for sell. He hopes to sell the property for about $1 million, and is hosting an “open house” for potential buyers. Some are seriously looking into purchasing the home, while others are just poking around being NOSY! Lol, y’all know how folks are!
“Well, we can’t change history,” says Todd. “History happens somewhere at somebody’s house. Hopefully it’ll spark some interest. A lot of people have questions about what went happened … Hopefully this answers some of those questions.”
Photo of the Moment: singer and producer (Neptunes) Pharrell took some time out of his busy schedule to serve it up on the World’s Largest Arcade Machine. “FINNISH HIM!” Pharrell, LOL! I wonder if this thing’s taller than Shaq — kidding! It has to be at least over 13 feet tall! Gray day!
Yep (confirmed), 14 feet tall; 5 foot wide; 75 inch screen and plays 150 classic arcade games … MY GUAWD!

Queen of R&B/soul Mary J. Blige covers the December 8th edition of Billboard. In the magazine singer Blige talks about her ever growing endorsements with elites like Chevrolet and Apple. She also discusses how her new album, Growing Pains (Geffen), may be even bigger than her previous effort The Breakthrough.
In the words of Dr. Khia, “Something in the milk ain’t clean!” Now … before I continue with this post, I would like to say that ALLTHEPARTIES.COM is the devil! And judging by the pics above, you can’t blame me (for my opinion) lol. Now I’m no fashion expert or anything like that, but I do know that you are NOT supposed to wear a turtle-neck SWEATER as a SKIRT, dress, or whatever the hell she’s trying that pass that thing off as! That shit just ain’t cool lol. Don’t get me wrong, because no one is perfect. But this child is barely 20 and has cellulite! WTF?! How do you get cellulite as a teenager? Somebody PLEASE help me out, I feel like I’m out of the loop on something here…
If this ain’t a fuck effort I don’t know what is! Ladies, please THINK 2WICE before you leave the house looking like that. Effort should always be present when picking out an outfit for the club! Now THAT’S my only advice, LMAO.
Hip-hop would not be hip-hop without some Grade A “Beef!” Remy Ma recently responded (via the radio) to a few comments Lil Kim made about her.
“That little boy better live me alone, Remy said referring to Lil Kim. “She was saying I’m going at [Remy] hard, she go hard to me so I go hard back. I feel like if that’s going at me hard, like seriously, I’m just gonna chill out. That’s crazy to me.”
“What did she say? ‘Put it on my lipstick, I was to be busy being conceited.’ Like, how could you be conceited, you don’t even like your own face,” Remy continued. “What are you talking about? Are you serious? How was I supposed to take that offensive. I don’t believe you,” stressed Remy. “You don’t like your nose, you don’t like your cheek , you don’t like your chin, you don’t like your skin color, you don’t like your tits , you don’t like your stomach, you don’t like your teeth. What are you talking about?” She asked.
“At the end of the day it’s funny to me. When I really feel like it’s amusing, when I feel like someone’s getting at me, then I’ll drag them all over the first spot that I see them of course,” Remy continued. “But in the meantime, in between time … like this chic has more ghostwriters than Foxy [Brown]. I just feel like right now she’s reaching…”
My question is: Who do you guys think would win in a FIST fight?! Remy Ma or BIG’s old punching bag Lil Kim?? Leave your response in the comments!! My money goes to Remy. That bitch is GANGSTA!
It’s that time of year when the nominees for the upcoming Grammy awards are announced, and I hate to be critical, but really … can someone please enlighten me on the CURRENT qualifications for getting nominated?! Having a “hit” or two on the radio? I mean really, T-Pain? Soulja Boy? Akon? I guess when you’re given lemons, you make lemonade. The state of music is really in a pitfall if the people I mentioned above qualify for a Grammy. To me, it just makes being nominated not feel so “special” anymore. But I’m glad my boy Kanye got his 8 nods though! Check out who else has the opportunity to take one home after the cut.
The December/January issue of Ozone magazine gets up close and personal (a little too personal) with some of hip-hop’s biggest stars, including Lil’ Wayne, Young Buck and Ray-J, in its annual sex issue. Of course hip-hop cover king Weezy is on the front of the magazine, but that’s not what this post is about. We want to direct your attention to what’s on the INSIDE of said magazine. Now I’m going to give a fair warning: some of the things Dwayne says may be hard to stomach, so I suggest you not eat for the next 2 hours, and prior to reading this, you shouldn’t have anything in your belly. If you’ve eaten in the past hour so, I suggest you hold off on reading this lol. Oh, and for those who don’t know … TMI = Too Much Information =) Big ups to Fresh for spotting this!
If your phone rings during sex, do you answer?
Hell no. No. No! That’s not making love. That’s fucking. Fucking is, [humping frantically, picking up the phone] “Hello!? Yeah, nigga!!! Man, you crazy!!” Nah, I wouldn’t answer the phone because I be screaming and everything. I’m sensitive, no homo. If you touch me, man. my shit is over-intense. I look at it as a blessing because it makes everything better.
Usher’s mother, Jonnetta Patton, tells PEOPLE that her new grandson is God’s gift to her son and his wife, just in time for the holidays.
“I’m extremely excited and filled with joy about the birth of my grandson, Usher Raymond V,” Patton says. “He is beautiful, precious, healthy and such a blessing. I’m very happy for my son and his wife [1]. God has truly blessed them with a special gift. This will be an amazing holiday season for all of us.”
Usher’s wife, Tameka, gave birth to Usher Raymond V on Monday night. “We are so happy and proud of our beautiful son,” the couple said in a statement.
[1] I guess she still can’t stand ol’ Tameka! Haha!
Judging by the photos above, it seems as though 18-year-old, 19-year-old, 20-year-old, or however the hell old he is, Bow Wow is immature in stature AND in mentality. Some people just don’t deserve the little cash that they have, lol. Here the young rapper can be seen (sans his “buddy” Omarion) waving some hundreds in the paps’ cameras in Beverly Hills, CA earlier in the week. He was rushed to the hospital the other day due to a combination on “stress and exhaustion.” He’s currently on tour with Omarion, Chris Brown, and Soulja Boy, and will be releasing an album with Omarion entitled “The Face Off.”
THRILLER 25TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION (CLICK TO ENLARGE)EPIC RECORDS/LEGACY RECORDINGS UNVEIL THE 25TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION OF MICHAEL JACKSON’S THRILLER THE WORLD’S BIGGEST SELLING ALBUM OF ALL TIME Well it has indeed been a long time coming but the wait is now worth it, The World’s Top-selling Pop Artist Ever Mr. Michael Jackson will be returning with brand new and unreleased material featuring Will.I.Am and Fergie from the Black Eyed Peas, Akon and Kanye West for the final installment of Thriller 25th Anniversary Edition! The album will be available for purchase February 12th of next year and expect a new single to be announced sometime in December of 2007. I’m so overzealous — you have no idea! The album Thriller has been certified by the RIAA 27x platinum thus achieving Double Diamond status and making history as the first and only record to be America’s top-selling album two years running (1983 and 1984). Michael Jackson has started a mainstream phenomenon in everything, not just music, he is just simply the greatest and there will never be another quite like Michael. Ahh, I think my all-time favorite MJ cuts would have to be (next to “Thriller” of course), “They Don’t Care About Us,” “Leave Me Alone,” “Ghost” and “Scream!” But really, I like all of ’em! This man puts out consecutive hits to me, he will always be number one, I cannot stress that enough. Oh, I’m so excited — can you tell?! **
