So He is Gonna be Mr. Knowles-Carter...:-/


The Carters are supposedly set to become the Knowles-Carters. Y’all know Papa Knowles wasn’t letting his name die out:


Beyonce Knowles and Jay-Z – who married in April 2008 – are to take on both of their respective surnames in order to keep the Sweet Dreams singer’s parental line from dying out.

Jay-Z – whose real name is Shawn Carter – will now be known as Shawn Knowles-Carter, while Beyonce is to become Beyonce Knowles-Carter.

A source revealed: “They want to keep Knowles because Beyonce’s parents didn’t have any sons and they’re keen to keep the name going strong, especially if they don’t produce any children themselves.”

The Cutest Married Couple....

Sex and The City 2.....Yesssss..!!!!

If your a Girly Girl Like Myself =} You fell in love with the Cast & Show of Sex and the City...Big and Carrie....Samantha and her Wild Sex Tales, Miranda and her "work" and the Sweety Pie Charlotte...Anywho...There is a pt 2 of the Movie coming out... Watch the Trailer



In this trailer for Sex and the City 2 (watch above), Carrie Bradshaw (Sarah Jessica Parker) declares that in the past two years, the girls have experienced "things you thought would never happen in a million years."

But the trailer doesn't offer up any juicy plot details.

As Jay-Z and Alicia Keys' hit song "Empire State of Mind" plays in the background, the teaser shows Carrie seemingly still in love with Mr. Big, Charlotte (Kristin Davis) busy as a mom and Samantha (Kim Cattrall) -- surprise! -- looking for men.

The trailer also shows the girls taking a lot of trips, including a camel ride through the desert.

"Sometimes, you just have to get away with the girls," Carrie says.

The sequel hits screens May 28, 2010.

Not so Pretty News....


So..America's Best Dance Crew udge Shane Sparks has been arrested in Los Angeles and charged with 8 felony counts of child molestation, TMZ is reporting. The Los Angeles Police Department took Sparks into custody at 8 am PT Friday morning. According to the criminal complaint, the alleged incidents began occurring in 1994 and involve one victim, an under-aged girl.



The complaint accuses the 35-year-old Sparks of engaging in acts "with the intent of arousing, appealing to, and gratifying the lust, passions, and sexual desires of the defendant, who was at least 10 years older than [the victim]."



Sparks -- best known for his past work as a choreographer on 'So You Think You Can Dance' -- is being held on $590,000 bail.

Sparks is actually the second person tied to 'So You Think You Can Dance' who's been in trouble with the law. Earlier this year, his co-star and dancing instructor Alex Da Silva was charged with sexual assault.

He has also worked with artists such as Aaliyah, Monica, and Lindsay Lohan. His work on the 2004 film 'You Got Served' earned him an American Choreography Awards and was nominated for Emmy for 'So You Think ...'

The Price for Fame....



CNN) -- A judge in Colorado sentenced the father who in October falsely reported his 6-year-old son was aloft in an escaped balloon to 90 days on Wednesday.

The judge indicated that Richard Heene will spend part of the time in jail and the rest on work release.

He is to begin his sentence after the holidays.

Heene tearfully apologized during the hearing.

"I'm very, very sorry, and I want to apologize to all the rescue workers out there and the people who got involved in the community. That's it," Richard Heene said.

His wife, Mayumi Heene, received a sentence of 20 days in jail, which is less than the 60 days agreed to by prosecutors as part of a plea deal before the hearing.

Mayumi Heene won't begin her sentence until her husband finishes his jail time so there can be someone home with their children, Larimer County Judge Stephen Schapanski said.

She also was given four years of supervised probation and must do 120 hours of public service.

Earlier, a prosecutor revealed the search-and-rescue launched in response to the incident cost at least $47,000 and said Richard Heene and his wife, Mayumi, should pay restitution to the various agencies that participated.

Last month, Richard Heene pleaded guilty in Larimer County Court to a felony charge of attempting to influence a public servant. Mayumi Heene pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of false reporting to authorities.

The incident occurred in October, when a large silver balloon came loose from its moorings in the Heenes' yard and drifted over eastern Colorado. Mayumi Heene called 911 and said the couple's 6-year-old son, Falcon, was inside the craft.

Millions of people across the country watched the saga on television for nearly two hours as military aircraft tracked the balloon in the air and rescuers chased it below.

Mayumi Heene later admitted the whole thing was a hoax and that Falcon was safe in their home the whole time, authorities said.

The couple's attorneys have said that the threat of Mayumi Heene's deportation was a factor in the plea deal negotiations. Mayumi Heene is a Japanese citizen but is in the United States legally.

Court documents released in October said the couple hatched the plan about two weeks before the incident and "instructed their three children to lie to authorities as well as the media regarding this hoax."

Their motive was to "make the Heene family more marketable for future media interests," the documents said.

Welcome Home T.I


The King is back. XXLMag.com has learned that T.I. was released from prison this morning (December 22) and will be admitted into a halfway house in his hometown of Atlanta, later today.

XXL spoke with Tip’s lead defense attorney in his federal gun case, Steve Sadow, who confirmed the news. “He was released this morning from his place of incarceration in Arkansas,” Sadow said. “As I understand it, he’s on his way back to the Atlanta area. He has to report to a halfway house in Atlanta sometime this evening. And he will then spend somewhere between the next two or three months in a halfway house, ending his Buruea of Prison sentence.“

According to Sadow, T.I. will have a lot more freedom under his new living conditions. “A halfway house is more along the lines of a residential dormitory,” he explained of the rap star’s new stipulations. “You live within this house that is broken into areas for living, and you are permitted to leave during the day for certain reasons of which would be employment, medical reasons, things of that nature, and you return to the halfway house in the evening. So it’s a restriction on your liberty but it’s a way for you to reenter into society and not be confined within a jail type institution 24-hours a day.”

T.I. has been serving time in Arkansas’ Forrest City Prison since May 26, for possession of unregistered machine guns and silencers, as well as firearms from a convicted felon. He is expected to be finished with his federal sentence in March of 2010. —Jesse Gissen

Wait Your Turn lyrics

Wow...Another RIP Post....



PRETTY BUSINESS PROMOTIONS WOULD LIKE TO SEND OUR CONDOLENCES TO THE FAMILY, FRIENDS, AND FANS OF MRS. BRITTANY MURPHY....SHE WILL BE MISSED..

FRIENDS of Hollywood actress Brittany Murphy said she "definitely had a drug problem" amid fears she may have died from taking the same prescription drugs as Michael Jackson

Murphy, 32, was reportedly hooked on prescription drugs, including Vicodin, after a series of plastic surgery operations made her dependent on painkillers.

"We have been very worried something like this was about to happen," a friend told The Sun.

"Brittany has been living life on the edge. She definitely had a drug problem and we have all begged her to seek help. Sadly our words fell on deaf ears."

Murphy was taking prescription medication for flu-like symptoms she had been experiencing for several days, sources have told TMZ.


The actress was very ill in the hours before she went into cardiac arrest and was taken to Cedars-Sinai Medical Centre, where she was pronounced dead on arrival at 10.04am local time (Monday 5.04am AEDT).

TMZ reported Murphy began vomiting early Sunday morning and told family members she was feeling very sick.

Various prescriptions were found in the home - written for Murphy, her husband Simon Monjack, and Murphy's mother.

A source told TMZ: "There were a lot ... a lot of prescriptions in the house."

Monjak has reportedly asked that officials do not conduct an autopsy on her, despite her death being shrouded in mystery.

But despite his wishes, the LA County Coroner's office will perform an autopsy and toxicology report on the actress.

Earlier, Assistant Chief Coroner Ed Winter said the cause of Murphy's death appeared "to be natural".

Neighbour Clare Staples said she saw firefighters working to resuscitate the actress. She said Murphy was on a stretcher and "looked as though she was dead at the scene''.

Monjak, wearing pyjama bottoms and no shoes, appeared "dazed'' as firefighters tried to save her, Staples said.

"It's just tragic,'' she said.

TMZ.com was the first to report Murphy's death, stating that her mother found the actress unconscious in the shower. The Los Angeles City Fire Department got a call from the home of Monjack.

"In this time of sadness, the family thanks you for your love and support," a rep for Murphy said.

Tributes were quickly posted on social networking site, Twitter, with Hollywood celebrities among some of the first to send condolences.

Ashton Kutcher, who dated Murphy and starred alongside in Just Married, expressed his sadness to his 4 million twitter followers with the following message: "2day the world lost a little piece of sunshine. My deepest condolences go out 2 Brittany’s family, her husband, & her amazing mother Sharon. See you on the other side kid."

Singer Jessica Simpson wrote: "Brittany Murphy was an incredible ray of Light to so many people. Her smile was contagious. My prayers are with her family and loved ones."

Reality TV star Kim Kardashian said: "I am in shock that Britney Murphy has died! Clueless is my all time favorite movie. My prayers go out to her family & husband."

Limp Bizkit singer Fred Durst: "RIP Brittany Murphy. What a sweet human being. My prayers are with her friends and family."

Murphy starred in 8 Mile alongside Eminem and became a household name among teens in 1995 as the sidekick in Clueless.

The Sun reports Murphy was reportedly fired from her last film, The Caller, following a series of altercations on the set of the Puerto Rico-based horror movie. Her husband was also allegedly involved in a scuffle with locals.

Jada Pinkett-Smith's Daughter Willow...




I GUESS EVERONE IN HOLLYWOOD WAS INSPIRED BY CASSIE'S ANTICS...SHES A CUTE LITTLE GIRL...HOWEVER THAT EAR..CAN AFFORD TO BE COVERED...lol..JUST MY OPINION THO...

Jermaine Dupri speaks on Da Brat


Ever since Da Brat went to jail for beating a chick over the head with a bottle, people like Lisa Raye and Katt Williams have something to say about Jermaine Dupri not going to visit her while she’s doing her time. JD finally spoke about the situation on a radio show in Atlanta :

"Everyone has there reasons for doing certain things. If anything, Lisa Raye is Da Brat’s sister, so she definitely has to make her way to see Da Brat in jail but Katt Williams on the other hand, does he really have room to talk with all the trouble that he has been in lately??? This man can’t even make a simple trip to Wal-mart without ending up in handcuffs… SMH!!!"

“I spoke to her via letters back and forth and she’s good. She’s ready to come home and do what she gotta do,” Jermaine Dupri told V-103's Ryan Cameron this morning. “We are basically on the move to try and get her out.”

While he has corresponded with Da Brat via letters, he admitted that he hasn’t been to physically see her at Arrendale.

“Those people, they don’t really know me like that to say nothing about what I’m doing with my personal situation with Da Brat When Brat come home, I am going to be the person that take care of her and make sure she gets back on her feet and do what she gotta…that’s just like everybody talking about Tiger Woods. We know nothing about the situation and everybody should shut up.”

Dupri admitted that he hasn’t been to see Da Brat since her incarceration. He told Da Brat his reasoning in several of the letters he has written to her.

“I felt a certain way about seeing Brat in jail. That’s my little sister and I don’t really want to deal with that situation like that. I would prefer dealing with getting her out and seeing that day as opposed to going to see her…only reason I am saying this on the air is because I explained this to Brat. In my letter, I let her know the same thing."

Lil Wayne's Rebirth Leaked....


Young Money Records Attempts Damage Control As 'Rebirth' CD Leaks. Label Promises New Version Of Album For 2010

With Lil Wayne's rock LP, 'Rebirth' spreading across the internet like wildfire due to Amazon.com mistakenly shipping 500 copies out early. The Young Money camp has gone into full damage control mode.

Using Twitter to get the message out, Young Money booking agent Karen Civil, @KarenCivil tweeted on yesterday (December 16) "Leaked 09 Rebirth isn't going to be 2010 Rebirth.."

Mack Maine, the company's President then retweeted the same message via his account @MackMaine.

I find it very hard to believe the album can be completely re-tooled given the short amount between now and the probable beginning of Lil Wayne's prison sentence on February 9th. Which would also rule out pushing the album back further than the scheduled release date of February 1.

In my opinion, it's highly possible the label is either bluffing and the album comes out as it is now with maybe a couple of new songs or the project gets scrapped altogether.

I also expect to see a pretty big lawsuit filed against Amazon by Cash Money/Universal Motown Records.

Amazon now lists the release date as December 31,2020, whatever that means.

My Fav. NYC Housewife Goes Nude for a Cause


Bethenny Frankel, who is well known as one of "The Real Housewives of New York City" cast, is the latest celebrity to bare her body for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA)'s anti-fur ad. Her skyscraper billboard, which is located in New York City's Times Square, was shot by top celebrity photographer Joseph Cultice.

The photo shoot took place atop The Ludlow, the high-rise luxury apartment building located on Manhattan's Lower East Side. The 39-year-old TV personality was on her early pregnancy when the ad campaign was shot. "It's so tasteful and beautifully done," New York Post quoted her as saying. "I am especially pleased because it doesn't look like there's been any airbrushing and I was already pregnant when I shot it."

In an interview with PETA, which was conducted during the photo shoot, Bethenny opened up about what prompted her to stop wearing fur. "I used to wear fur. I went to a cocktail party, walked outside on Fifth Avenue, and a PETA protester was holding up a skinned animal," so she recalled. "I looked at it, and it made me sick. I felt disgusting. That day was a huge change, and since then I've really been against fur. I'm cleaning out my closets - trim, everything. I don't see any reason for cruelty."

Bethenny Frankel is currently three months pregnant with her first child. The father of her baby is her fiance, Jason Hoppy.

More Baby News...Kendra's New Baby Boy


First-time mother Kendra Wilkinson and her newborn baby boy Hank Baskett IV land OK! Magazine's cover with an accompanying headline that read, "Kendra Exclusive Baby Photos and Interview". The 24-year-old reality TV star is photographed on the cover holding Hank Jr., who is in the nude and sleeping, with both of her hands.

Interviewed by the publication at her room at Clarian North Medical Center, where she delivered the infant through C-section last Wednesday, December 9, Kendra says "I was just in heaven." Her NFL player husband Hank Baskett chimes in, "It was awesome."

Asked about the preparation she did before coming to the hospital to give birth to Hank Jr., Kendra recalls, "The good thing about being induced is that it's like planning a trip, just very calm. We ate a huge dinner before we came to the hospital. I ate a whole batch of brownies because I was nervous. No wonder he's 9 pounds!"

"I was induced early in the morning; then it was wait, wait, wait. I was experiencing contractions throughout the day, and I was anxious. I kept checking the monitor every second, like 'Is it happening yet?'," she continues revealing. And now that Hank Jr. has been born, Kendra tells OK!, "Thanks. I have labor brain. I forgot everything that happened!" As for Hank, he claims, "I am in straight awe, trust me."

Hank Baskett IV is Kendra Wilkinson and Hank Baskett's first child. He weighed in at 9 lbs., 5 oz. and was 22 inches long at time of birth. Kendra and Hank themselves have been married since June this year. The pair's full interview and their baby's first pics are featured on the new issue of OK! Magazine, which goes on sale Thursday, December 17.

Keyshia Cole is Expecting Her 1st Child....


A baby is on the way for R 'n' B artist Keyshia Cole. Reports have been floating all over the web that the songstress is pregnant with her first child. S2Smagazine actually is the first to break story on the matter.

Back on November 30, the site reported Keyshia is carrying a bun in the oven. The father of her upcoming baby is her basketball player boyfriend Daniel Gibson, whom she began dating earlier this year.

Keyshia, according to a source close to her, is due to give birth in March next year. The gender of her not-yet-born infant wasn't disclosed though. In related news, S2Smagazine.com claimed that though they are expecting a baby, Keyshia and Daniel are in no rush to walk down the aisle.

As of the press time, there has been no official confirmation released by either Keyshia or Daniel if they really are expecting a baby. But, Examiner has claimed they will be parents to a baby boy.

Rumors that Keyshia Cole is pregnant first emerged last month after she was spotted at several ocassions sporting an apparent baby bump. Most recently she was seen courtside at a Cleveland Cavaliers game cheering on her man, Daniel Gibson.




Rapper Shyne Taps Super Producer Shawty Redd To Produce His Upcoming Album in Belize
After finishing a nine year stint in a New York State prison and then being deported back to his homeland of Belize , Jamal “Shyne” Barrow wasted no time in getting back to work. We have learned through our sources that Shyne recently commissioned Super Producer Shawty Redd to travel to Belize to executive produce his upcoming album.

Hot 97 radio personality Angie Martinez spoke briefly about Shyne’s plans to get back in the studio, but was unable to release any specific details. However, Hip Hop Enquirer’s Dennis Byron was contacted by Shawty Redd’s management several weeks earlier requesting that he fly out to Belize and capture the collaboration of Shyne and Shawty Redd working in the studio.
“His management contacted me several weeks ago about flying me to Belize to capture the behind the scenes of Shawty Redd working with Shyne, so of course I jumped at the opportunity. I had already photographed Shawty earlier in his career and I was also at Shyne’s trial in New York City nine years ago so it’s like a reunion”
Demetrius “Shawty Redd” Stewart was most recently named one of the top music producers in the south by the New York Times.
Check back next month to see exclsuive footage from what is sure to be history in the making of this incredible collaboration.

T.I. May Go To a Halfway House


Earlier yesterday Atlanta gossip blog sandrarose.com reported that incarcerated rapper T.I. would be released from Arkansas ’ Forrest City Prison much earlier than expected. XXLMag.com spoke with Steve Sadow, the rap star’s lead council in his federal firearms case, to shed light on the matter.
According to Sadow, T.I. has a projected release date in “approximately the fourth week of March 2010.” This takes into account Tip’s original 366-day sentence, which he began serving on May 26, 2009, minus 54 days for good behavior and 14 days “that he had in custody prior to sentencing.”
“Now it is up to the [Federal] Bureau of Prisons to decide whether someone should be placed in a halfway house prior to the projected release date,” Sadow explained. “The Bureau of Prisons can do that and typically does it either a month before, or two months before… as much as six months before the projected release date.”
The attorney is optimistic that the Grammy-award-winning artist may be out sooner than expected. “We are hopeful that T.I. will be placed in a halfway house within the next month or so, which would be about two or three months before his projected release date. We are hopeful for that, we do not have any control over it. The Bureau of Prisons makes that decision entirely on its own, they don’t share that decision with the public and they don’t share that decision with the defense lawyers,” he said. “But we are hopeful because we know that T.I. has handled himself accordingly and conducted himself correctly while he has been incarcerated, we are hopeful that the Bureau of Prisons will give him two or three months of halfway house.”
Stay tuned to XXLMag.com as the story develops. —Jesse Gissen

Congratulations Scott & Kourtney


CONGRATULATIONS! Kourtney And Scott Welcomes Baby Boy


EOnline Reports:

Kourtney Kardashian welcomed her first child with boyfriend Scott Disick early Monday morning, E! News and Life & Style jointly report.

"Kourtney just delivered a healthy baby boy about an hour ago," her publicist said.

Mason Dash Disick (yes, the middle name is the same as the family's boutique) arrived at an L.A.-area hospital, tipping the scales at 7 pounds, 6 ounces, and measuring 19.5 inches.

"A boy is definitely needed in this family!" Kourtney told E! News in October. "Scott and I are thrilled to add a little boy to the bunch."

But the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star has always had a lot of women in her life who love her—the same ones who showered her with baby gifts last month at Kris and Bruce Jenner's house in Calabasas.

Kourtney was "due any minute!" sisters Kim and Khloé reported to Ryan Seacrest last Thursday.

And while they've always been two of Kourtney's biggest fans, Kim and Khloé agreed that their big sis has done a complete turnaround, as far as getting ready to be a mom is concerned.

"Kourtney didn't even like kids," remarked Kim. I never thought she'd ever want to have a baby." But now, she added, "I think Kourt's going to be the most amazing mom."

Rihanna is Confused..!!!


Rihanna: It's Impossible Not to Speak to Chris Brown Again

The 'Russian Roulette' singer reveals that she still wants to talk to Chris Brown, saying she can't see herself never speaking to him again.

Although Rihanna was assaulted and left covered in bruises by her ex-boyfriend Chris Brown back in February, the "Russian Roulette" singer admitted that she doesn't hate the "With You" singer. She indeed stated that she still wants to talk to him.

In a recent interview, the Grammy Award-nominated singer told Glamour magazine, "I can't see myself never speaking to him again." She then added, "There's emotion there. I think it's possible to change."

Rihanna, however, confessed that she is fool for falling in love with Brown after what he did to her. The "Take a Bow" singer stated, "It's embarrassing that I fell in love with that person." She further shared, "He was my first big love and the more in love we became, the more dangerous we became for one another."

Beside feeling embarrassed, the 21-year-old singer also revealed that reconciling with him shortly after the attack was nothing but a mistake. "Love doesn't go away easily," she reasoned on why she made such decision.

Despite Rihanna's willingness to speak to Chris Brown again, she won't be able to do that at least in the next five years since Brown is legally ordered not to contact her. In addition to the restraining order, Brown himself was sentenced to five years probation and 180 days of community service in Virginia for assaulting her.

Good News for Kelis and Baby Knight...


Nas Ordered To Increase Monthy Support Payments To Kelis To $51,000

In the summer, rapper Nas was ordered to pay a hefty month payment of $44,000 to his estranged wife Kelis for child- and spousal-support, in the midst of their divorce . Now, he's been ordered to pay more.
According to the Associated Press, Los Angeles Superior Court Judge David Cunningham III ordered the rapper (real name: Nasir Jones) to bump up his monthly child and spousal payments to $51,101, for a total of more than $600,000 a year to his soon-to-before ex-wife Kelis and their son, Knight.
The decision came after a two-day hearing in which the judge determined that Nas made enough money in recent months to pay additional support.
Nas' attorney, Mark Vincent Kaplan , said the judge made the right decision and that despite the payment bump, Nas came out ahead in the decision because he will no longer have to pay the expenses on the former couple's Los Angeles residence.
TMZ reported that during Wednesday's (December 9) hearing, that the group were trying to reconcile in September, almost calling off the divorce, but things didn't work out.
She also reportedly testified that she has been having difficulty earning money because she is a new mother and doesn't have a lot of job options outside of the music business.
She told the court that Nas is slated to release two albums in 2010.
Earlier this month, Kelis announced that she had inked a deal with Will.i.am's Will.I.Am Music Group, who is distributed through Interscope. She's back in the studio, working on her next album.

DUI is not Pretty Business...



One of the most valuable players on the Florida Gator football team was arrested last night for DUI -- don't worry, it wasn't Tim Tebow.

Gainseville PD busted defensive superstar Carlos Dunlap early this morning when they saw his car stopped at an intersection -- while the light was green. When the officer approached the car, he found Dunlap asleep, slumped over the wheel of his car.

Dunlap -- who was the defensive MVP of last year's national championship game -- failed a field sobriety test, refused to take a breath test and was hauled into the station where he was booked.

The arrest comes just days before the Gators take on number two Alabama in the SEC championship. No decision has been announced about whether Dunlap will play in the game.

When Butt Shots Go Wrong..!! RIP Miss Argentina



A former Miss Argentina died Sunday after elective surgery on her butt went terribly wrong.

According to several international reports, 37-year-old Solange Magnano suffered a pulmonary embolism after going under the knife Wednesday at a Buenos Aires medical center for a gluteoplasty – a procedure which normally involves placing implants in the buttocks to improve their outline.

Solange -- a wife and mother of 7-year-old twins -- suffered a pulmonary embolism the day after her surgery when liquid injected into her buttocks "went to her lungs and brain."

Authorities say the cause of death is still under investigation.

Solange won the crown back in 1994 -- and had since created her own modeling agency.
