Independence Day has a New Meaning for Lil' Kim
While we all know the meaning of the Independence day that we celebrate, Ms. Kim will be celebrating an Independence day that's all her own. MSNBC reports that the rap mistress will indeed be home to celebrate July 4th with her family and friends. In fact, she will be coming home the day before on Monday, July 3rd. Miss Kim states:

"Dreamgirl"
Age Ain't Nothing But a Number, right?
Bring It On Brit!!
I guess Britney felt the need to regain her public view of her. She wanted people to remember her sexy sultry side, sans the undone hair, and unflattering clothes. The dateline interview reportedly really got to Britney:
"She Felt Terrible. She didn’t understand her image problem until the negative feedback about Dateline. She pulled out her extensions and bought a bottle of dark hair dye” (calling her doctor first to ask if it was safe for her unborn child)
Britney informs everyone, “It’s vegetable dye and will wash right out". I guess she has to make everything she does known to the public before everyone starts bashing her again for being an unfit mother. I say F*** everyone Britney. Do your thing girl, you're human. Damn I feel like people need to get off her back. She's a normal person outside of pop stardom, she doesn't have to look like she just finished a photoshoot everytime we see her. You know all that is, is her being humble. I can't wait until Britney comes back strong. I bet everyone will forget about her so called, 'trailer trash looking' days.
In fact, Britney is in the process of working on some new material for next album. Singer/songwriter, Ne-Yo has been working with the pop princess:
"I've done one session for her, but now she's pregnant it may be put on hold for a while. I'm not allowed to talk about her sound though; her people want it kept under wraps."
I'm sure whatever they're working on will be a sure-fire crowd pleaser. I'm sure we can all welcome Britney back into the world of music with open arms.

A Good Look for Christina
Cherish
Sisqo Resurfaces
For the past few years I've been wondering where the hell Sisqo has been. But he put my worries to rest when he resurfaced at JD's LG Fusic afterparty for the BET awards. Everything looked alright with him except for the fact that he looked sweaty. Oh and why did he have on that damn wave cap?! I won't be surprised to see him pop up with a new single somewhere in the near future.
Young Joc:Was he Worthy enough to Perform??
MISS B
Yup!.....Miss B did it again. She killed her performance. And she looked stunning as always. Her outfit was cute and Meli Mel loved her hair. Get it B!!!!! Her and Jay looked like the ultimate couple that night. Although I really think that BET was starving for good performers for that night, they hit the jackpot by getting Beyonce to take the stage. Was it just me or were the awards really dry???

The Unveiling of 'The Half Glove'
I've recently been seeing pics of Paris and her infamous 'Half Glove', and I've finally posted about it b/c I really do believe she's out to set yet another trend. I mean her trendsetting gimicks have become quite popular among the Hollywood A-listers. Wasn't she the first to uncover the nip slips and amatuer peepshows? And didn't everyone jump on the bandwagon, i.e Lindsay Lohan, and Toni Braxton (and that's just to name a few). I dont' know, heiress Hilton might just be on to something. What also leads me to believe that she is indeed trying to start a trend is that in every pic i've seen of it, she's had her hand up around her face apparently giving worldwide recognition to the 'HG'. I wouldnt' be surprised if it starts popping up on red carpets everywhere. I love the dress though.
Paris Hilton quote of the day:
“I don’t know how I keep going to all these parties. I think it’s because I am an Aquarius. We Aquarians have a lot of energy.”

Jay-Z Goes International
Know while I knew all along that Jay-z's retirement bit was B.S, I didn't think he'd go all out as to start touring and possibly make another hip-hop album turned classic. He has done so much for the hip-hop game and everything he does will be remembered in its entirety. So it's no surprise that he has planned an International World Tour which includes stops at, Seoul, Beirut, Dubai, Johannesburg and Sydney. Now I'm sure those are only a few of many stops around the globe. Hmmm, I wonder if that Jay-Z & Beyonce break-up rumor is true. If it is, looks like this tour will leave him no room for patching up a festering relationship. Check out the link below for the full story on his International Tour:
Return of Chappelle, The Lost Episodes
Remember when Dave Chappelle walked away from his $55 million dollar deal with Comedy Central. Well, his fans will have a last chance to see the few episodes that they did film. The Chappelle's Show will return on July 9, will a new alias, "The Lost Episodes". We will get to see exactly what we'll ultimately be missing. Two of the four sketches are about Dave's life after becoming a multimillionaire. A few things have changed like how Dave appears before his studio audience between each sketch. Donnell Rawlings and Charlie Murphy have taken his place during the small "wrap arounds" as they like to call those short segments. I know I thought Dave was crazy for letting $55 mil slip through his fingers, but at the same time I felt him. Showbiz is a lot of pressure, and some people just cannot take it. Although I'll miss that crazy ass show, I'm sure I'll see a lot of Dave in different projects.

So That's Why Nelly
If you were just as curious as I was to find out why Nelly Furtado's sound changed so much then you will be happy to take a look at what she had to say about it in Blender Magazine this month;
Farewell & Bye Bye Bye: JT & Diaz
Natural Woman: Angela Bassett
Angela Bassett looks gorgeous as she arrives to the Apollo Theater Hall of Fame Induction ceremony. This is one of the few women who ages so beautifully and does it very NATURALLY. She's toned, and she's glowing. It would be great to have seen Vivica or Whitney age the way she does. Just classic.....

Style Mogul: Nigo
This is the man behind the music if you will. The founder, creator, designer of Bathing Apes. Yea we always see stars like Pharrell, Lil' Wayne, and even Chris Brown rocking so fly in the gear, but it's all thanks to Nigo. I must say I love his style and I see where it all stems from. I still believe that Japan is always one up in the fashion world. Now the question is, 'Can I endorse the line' Men Style recently did a bit on the 33 year old fashion designer. Here is the article:
Nigo, 33
A decade ago in Tokyo, Nigo was a fashion student, stylist, and DJ who couldn't find streetwear that was quite tough enough. So—like any good style mogul in the making—he designed his own, famously borrowing his signature slogan—"Ape shall never kill ape"—from that Charlton Heston cult classic. Nigo's well-cut, strictly limited stock became the object of frenzied desire among global cool kids and formed the basis of a mushrooming enterprise that now includes boutiques in Japan, London, and New York; a Tokyo-based hip-hop label; consulting agreements with Louis Vuitton and Pharrell Williams' Billionaire Boys Club; a sneaker deal with Reebok; and A Bathing Ape cafés and hair salons. One look at the ultra-cool perma-line outside the new SoHo store, and it's clear that Ape knows exactly what Ape is doing.
Kate Bosworth Returns
I don't know about you, but I love Kate Bosworth, ever since I seen her in "Blue Crush". She's making her mark in an even bigger role this summer. She'll be lighting up the silver screen as Lois Lane in, "Superman Returns". Directed by Bryan Singer, the film is due out in theaters this summer. This will prove to be a breakthrough performance for her I'm sure.
This pic is from her shoot for "W" magazine. Pick it up this July. She looks beautiful, and not as skinny as she's been looking in pictures lately.

Jessica Alba Venturing into Comedy
The "Into The Blue" star has just joined the cast for the Lionsgate comedy, "Good Luck Chuck". She will be starring opposite Dane Cook in the Film that is directed by Mark Helfrich. Her fans are use to seeing her in more action packed films like, "Fantastic Four" and "Sin City", than comedy. I can recall a comedy she did awhile back called, "Idle Hands" starring Devon Sawa, I don't remember any others but i'm hoping this film won't be a disappointment. The movie is along the lines of relationships and dating and womanizing until the main character Dane Cook finds his soulmate i.e Alba.
Alba is also currently filming, another comedy for Greenestreet Films called, "Bill", opposite Aaron Eckhart. There is also word that she will be starring in sequels to "Fantastic Four" and "Sin City". Looks like this may be Alba's year, what with her hosting the MTV Movie Awards and all. I personally love the girl and can't wait to see more of her work. And to add juice to the site name ROCKSOFLY, Jessica is doin the damn thing in that dress, "Rocking oh so Fly".....

Promiscuous Girl...U Already Know:Lohan
It's official everyone Lindsay Lohan is what we like to call a "hoe". I hate to sound so blatant but I'm just calling it how I see it. How is she linked to like 5 or 6 different guys at once. Over the past few months I've seen Lindsay with numerous males. I just can't understand why people put her on such a high pedestal. She is no role model, nor a fashion icon. Lindsay get out of here. Here is her list of flames that she HAS been linked to or is STILL linked to. You might want to sit down. this may take awhile:
- Stavros Niarchos
- Harry from British rock group Mcfly
- Wilmer Valderamma
- Jamie Burke former boyfriend of Kate Moss
- Brett Ratner
- Nick Lachey-how she wanted him but he declined, smart move
- Colin Farrell
- Jonathan Rhys Meyers-"Match Point" star
- Joaquin Phoenix,
- Jude Law
- Jared Leto
- Shaun White-Olympic medal winner
- Sean Lennon
Oh you better believe the list goes on, & will probably continue to for years to come
Hey Lindsay said it herself, take a look:
"I’ve become like the guy in relationships. Lately I just cannot be in a monogamous relationship. But there are people I want to date."
WTF?!!?!......chick you basically put yourself out....she put out there that she :
1.)Engages in sexual intimacy with everyone she's linked to &
2.)Does it with more people than the one person she is supposedly suppose to be dating.....
Lindsay's song of the day, "Promiscuous Girl"
M.C Opens Up Her Closet Doors
Let us take a look into Mariah Carey's closet since she revealed it to readers in In Style Home Spring 2006. Her closet space is very beautiful but why does her collection of shoes consist of gold and more gold. I really feel like she needs a better stylist, everything is so mundane. Let's not forget that infamous curve hugging dress that Mariah is notorious for wearing. She wear's it while walking her dog, at awards shows, parties, hell she probably sleeps in it. No but really she does have an extensive collection of clothes and shoes, she just doesn't really have a variety. Ok well maybe she does, I just don't see her in anything "out of her box". I know if I had the money Mariah had, you would see me in something new EVERYTIME you saw me. But her word for the day is VARIETY.

Save Screech's House
So here's the story Dustin Diamond (er..Screech from Saved By The Bell) is supposedly about to lose his house. He was given 10 days to fork up $250,000 of get up out of his home. This is a result of his property value increasing because the land around his Wisconsin home was developed for the better. Why is it he can't get a loan you ask? Well, because he has "shitty credit". And this is all straight from the mouth of the once child star. Yes, he has created a a website where his supporters can purchase T-shirts for $15-$20, by doing this they are donating to his mortgage payment. These T-shirts simply state that you helped save Dustin's house. The story is much more detailed, he really did get F***** over by the government and so-called loan guru's. Check it out for yourself. It really is sad more than funny, although i did chuckle at first. I'd buy a T-shirt, but I would hope he would do the same for me of I ever needed it. Her'es the link:
