Michael Tours Again:And We're not Talking About Little Boys
As we all know, the King of Pop, Michael Jackson was aquitted of his child molestation chrages last year. YAY!! Well, he has officially kicked off his tour which will make rounds in Asia, Singapore, Shanghai and Hong Kong, to be exact. It's about time. I can't wait to see the prices of those tickets, I've seen Madonna's outrageous ticket prices, imagine Michael's!!...But as for me I'll just have to wait for that good ol' DVD, but in the mean time I'll be praying that he still has it. If he doesn't there's always Janet.

Lark Voorhies is NOT Another Whitney
If you've heard reports about Lisa Turtle(well that's who Lark Voorhies played on "Saved By The Bell") going into rehab for coccaine addiction, it is totally NOT true. In fact she has filed a suit against National Enquirer for publishing the false story claiming it was "libelous and untrue". She has stated that the slanderous report has cost her "more than one would-be gig". The story was published on June 20 2005 and their cited source claimed to be a "friend" of the once child star. The report published the following info, she checked into a Southern California Hospital after suffering a nervous breakdown stemming from her coccaine addiction. Well that story is just NOT TRUE....it's sooo hard to believe tabloids nowadays, there are money hungry people out there willing to do anything...It's hard to know for sure whether or not the story is true but I'm guessing and hoping that it's not...We don't need another Whitney tragedy in our midsts. A word to our tabloids like National Enquirer, get your facts straight!!!

LUDA on OPRAH: "She gave me a hard time"
This is a recent interview Luda had with the beautiful people of Men Style Magazine. I really felt him on the whole Oprah thing. That woman really played him, Oprah may be one of the first black billionaires with a successful talk show and magazine but she is NOT QUEEN of the WORLD, and not SUPERIOR to anyone. I'm glad he spoke his mind about the whole situation. This is reality for all the people who put OPRAH on some kind of pedestal, here's the interview:
I’m glad you said that. I can talk about this for days. She edited out a lot of my comments while keeping her own in. Of course, it’s her show, but we were doing a show on racial discrimination, and she gave me a hard time as a rapper when I came on there as an actor.
What happened after the taping? Were you furious?
Initially, I wasn’t even invited on the show, and they called the night before to tell me I could be on. So after the taping, she pulled me into a room and we had a five-minute conversation. What I got was that by having rappers on her show, she feels like she’s empowering them.
Did you start to sweat?
I didn’t start sweating, but since I wasn’t invited at first, it was like being at someone’s house who doesn’t really want you there. It was already uncomfortable.
What if she wanted you back?
I don’t know. It would maybe be as an actor—not a rapper—which to me is unfair. I don’t see why people like Chris Rock and Dave Chappelle, who I am huge fans of, it’s okay for them to go on Oprah. They speak the same language as I do, but they do it through comedy, so I guess that’s acceptable to her.
Let’s change the subject: What actor would you love to work with?
Jeffrey Wright. Yeah, man, he is highly underrated.
And which actress?
I would love to do something with Felicity Huffman.
Really? Because you love Desperate Housewives?
No, no. I just think she’s a great actress. And that older woman who has a lot of buzz. What’s her name?
Shirley MacLaine?
Yeah, Shirley MacLaine. She’s amazing, man. I had a chance to meet her at a film festival, so I told her I would love to work with her. She was like, “We have to make it happen!”
Wow, I’m so surprised. I would never have guessed that.
That’s what interviews are all about—so people can know what’s inside Ludacris’s head. It’s not all about chicken and beer and big butts. It’s also about Shirley MacLaine.

Mariah Carey Needs a Better Stylist:Vol. I
Her dress looks like someone from project runway made it, and it was was the reason they got eliminated, she almost looks like she's competeing with Beyonce and her mom Tina Knowle's designs....Those shoes....payless....&& her hair looks dull && frizzy....now I LOVE LOVE LOVE this lady but DAMN.....I mean she usually looks good in her videos.....but please someone get her a stylist....more, MARIAH needs a BETTER STYLIST to come.....
Jennifer Aniston trying to compete
I recently read a report on http://www.postchronicle.com that stated Jennifer Aniston apparently is "so determined" to have a child that she put her new beau Vince Vaughn on a so-called healthy diet....to increase their chances of conception...cutting back on drinking, smoking, and, fast foods.....
Now, while this is totally understandable because she wants a healthy baby....I am just baffled that
- Their relationship still seems new, and yet she already wants a child, I mean I don't know for sure how long they knew eachother but I' m pretty sure they're not ready for baby status
- She went from Brad Pitt to Vince Vaughn
- I just THOUGHT that when she WAS with BRAD, HE wanted a child but she didn't, so why now, with HIM???
I don't know it all just seems so weird....it almost like she's competing with her EX BRAD && Angie.....I mean Brad && Angie started their little fling on the set of their movie Mr. && Ms. Smith....Jen && Vince started on the set of THEIR new movie.....Brad && Angie have a baby...Jen && Vince want one.....and so soon....I mean get out of here.....i'm happy she's moved on....but it doesn't even matter if you want a child now....you're not with BRAD anymore...the only reason people care is b/c you used to be with Brad && now you're with VINCE???.....and we just can't understand WHY HIM?????

Strip Clubbing:Favorite Past Time for Hollywood
- perp #1-Michael Jordan....said to be a great tipper (He better be....he can afford that expense fa'sho)
- perp#2-Cutie Pie....Heath Ledger....good to know Brokeback Mountain didn't have an affect on his preference...dubbed as "Casanova"....he is known to come in disguised in shades and what the girls call a "realy dumb hat"
- perp#3-Pamela Anderson...not a big shocker that she's a regular when in town...hey she probably gets fashion tips from the girls....I mean they do always know about the latest && highest stilettos.....dubbed the "hottest" A-lister that attends, then girls don't mind joining Pam in her hotel room for THEIR version of an afterparty....
- perp#4-Michael Keaton....They always say that an actor's role sometimes affects how the public views them....&& it certainly does in Batman's case because not ONE stripper knew who he was in the joint all night....
- perp#5-Christina Aguilera....since she got married i figured she'd calm down a bit....what husband wants his wife, naked in GQ, drunken at night clubs, && escorting him during his fun time at the strip club.....well her's does apparantly...she reportedly paid to keep the club open an extra 2 hours && dished out 500 in scrilla($$$$)....as tips to a dozen pole hopping ladies....all this to keep her new beau Jordan BRATman....happy.....yea more like "Might as well be here with him, or else he'll be out by himself, at least now I can WATCH him oogling these chicks".....dumb broad.....i guess that IS completely normal for him to accept the offer....what guy would refuse?
- perp#6-Colin Ferrell....enough said with his freaky ass
- perp#7-Vin Diesel.....well puts to rest at least a little bit of those "Vin Diesel might be gay" rumors....he invited one girl down to MIAMI with him...
- perp #8-Dennis Rodman....not shocking that he bared his peirced goods to the girls....
- perp#9-LUKE WILSON....looks like Hollywood's good boy....not even....he reportedly dates strippers && leaves behind a sickening tab....1,000...i wonder how many lap dances he got with that....
- perp#10-50 Cent....okay I can see that....but I just can't see him spending the whole time in the President's Room watching a WRINKY WRIGHT boxing match the entire evening....yea he did that...&& why he wasted money becuase he didn't stay home with a few groupies instead, I don't know??

Memoirs of a Geisha....Sayuri & Mameha
Janet Performing
My girl Janet, she's at it again....If you are as much of a fan as I am then you will be pleased to know that she will be performing on the Today Show on Friday Sept. 29. She will be the closing act to the Toyota concert series that runs all summer on the show. I am happy to see her back in shape.....I'm sure she'll look great when she does perform.....
.......look out for her album "20 Years Old".....which by the way, will have it's first single shipped to radio on JUNE 19th....it is entitled "Call On Me".....Now I'm hearing a lot of good things about this album....I can't wait for it's impact....and to know that it was produced by JD is even more of a plus if you've been hearing all the hits he's recently been dishing out...JD is on fire this year....I hope he kept the ball rolling on Janet's new album....

MIHO HATORI
Yup....you guessed it....it's Miho Hatori... member of the group, Gorillaz, and former Cibo Matto singer. She's originally from Tokyo but now resides in NYC. She's now out on her own in the music scene....I haven't heard anything from her yet but I'm sure I'll find something...I'll keep you posted....if her style is anything like the Gorillaz, i'm sure she's worth the money....she's too cuuute though....

Newborns: Senior Citizen's Edition
So, while I'm happy for Issac Hayes (Jerome "Chef" McElroy--Southpark).....I find it odd for him to have announced the birth of his son with wife Adjowa (he has children from previous marriages)....the child name is Nana Kwadjo Hayes.....Please keep in mind that Mr. Hayes was born in 1942 which makes him roughly 64....i find that a feat in itself.....i wish him all the luck in the world for raising the little tike in his elderly state......I just couldn't imagine my grandparents having kids at their age.....but CONGRATS to him anyway

Leave Tom Alone!!!
I'm pretty sure you've heard how Mission:Impossible III didn't quite meet it's box office expectations. Well now recent surveys have said that TOM basically brought it on himself. USA TODAY shows conducted a poll which displayed that 51% of fans deliberately didn't go see the movie as a result of, get this, "HIS ANTICS, COMMENTS, and CONTINUAL PUBLIC DISPLAYS OF AFFECTION WITH HIS FIANCEE KATIE HOLMES"!!!!!.....NOW I FIND PLEEEENNNTY OF THINGS WRONG WITH THAT.....how can people be mad at Tom for that....i say it's all bull****......because what??.....he's not acting like a prick like a a lot of A-list stars......He had a baby for goodness sake.....he's happy as all H***.......so these critics or whoever just need to need to leave him alone.....fans in my words ARE JUST THAT....FANS!!!!.....no matter what.....well TRUE fans anyway......

Vintage Aguilera
I knew it...I knew Christina was up to something...I've been seeing a lot of her lately looking rather....Classic...white-blonde hair....cinched waist pencil skirts....and bright red lipstick....well it seems to me that she was just getting herself in the right mood for her new album....which is vintage in it's sound, with inspirations from Etta James, Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, and Otis Redding....The album is called, "Back to Basics"......this is a very different look for Christina but it's expected i guess....she went from innocent, pop star, dirty && risque, to vintage??......we'll see....I'm looking forward to this album which is slated for an August 15th release.....
.....Check her out in the June issue of GQ in which she bares just about everything for readers....even her feelings about Mega-star Mariah Carey....
The Big Bang
Gotta love Busta Busts' return with his 'perfect for the occasion' named album "The Big Bang" .... I can't wait to hear what he has in store for his fans...and believe I am a big fan...as you all should know this will be his debut album with Aftermath Entertainment...slated for a June 13th release....with productions by none other than Dr. Dre and appearances by Q-TIP, STEVIE WONDER, MISSY ELLIOTT,HE LATE RICK JAMES, AND KELIS, among other names....he continues to stun me with his creativity....he's got a sale over here....
Everybody Hates Alicia?
So Chris Rock hit it off first with "Everybody Hates Chris"...i don't know about everybody else but I personally think that the show in all it's good humor, is entertaining.....well Alicia Keys is next with her childhood based sitcom which is similar to Chris Rock's but will not be humorous in concept....she just signed a deal with UPN so I'm guessing the show is in the making...I can't wait to see how interesting her life must've been to create a sitcom about it...on UPN at that, which is notorious for humorous TV series'....I love this child's MUSICALLY inclined self and I can't wait to see her in that new movie of hers.....but this might just start an epidemic of celebrities creating shows about their life.....let's just hope for the better.....

Natural Beauty vs. Made-up Beauty
Yea so this post was dedicated to ponder the age old question MAKE-UP vs. NATURAL BEAUTY .....I know there are a hand full of people who like natural beauty over made-up beauty.....i know every guy and boyfriend's question is "Why you gotta where all that stuff on your face for?".....when i look at these pictures I ask myself that question too.....i think i llike natural a bit more.....although they are still lovely ladies for the most part.
Brit's Babe
Project Runway Finalist
I was browsing the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week website.....looking through the designers section, and ran across Kara Saun
(she was the one winning a good amount of the competitions) on Project Runway
I don't know how i feel about her designs yet....it looks like couture mixed with the goth/ Victorian era look ...i think these were her best designs from her collection....at least she's doing something with her designs....she was ONE of my favorites from the show....if you don't know who I'm talking about check out her website, http://www.karasaun.com

Mandy Moore at 2006 Costume Institute
US Magazine recently posted this picture of Mandy Moore in a Peter Som dress in which I think she looks stunning....at the 2006 Costume Institute Gala....She was one of many on the BEST dressed list at this event...Some of her fellow best dressers were Jessica Alba,Gisele Bundchen, and J.lo....I think Mandy Moore might have been my favorite....i love how she looks good in just about every hair color....
