Diana Ross Breaks ankle At Naomi Campbell’s Party



Superstar Diana Ross is sporting a leg cast after breaking her ankle at a lavish birthday bash for Naomi Campbell’s billionaire boyfriend last month.



The British supermodel threw an extravagant party in Jodhpur, India to celebrate Vladislav Doronin turning 50, and asked the Motown legend to perform for guests including Kate Moss and Demi Moore.

Ross was seen using a wheelchair at LAX airport in Los Angeles after the event, sparking fears for her health, and her representative has now confirmed the star fell over and broke her ankle after singing at the event.

  The spokesperson says, “Ms Ross accidentally slipped and broke her ankle at the end of a show in India in November.

“She is fine and has been recovering. She will be performing next week for the President in Washington, D.C.”

Sports Illustrated Named Lebron James Sportsman of the Year



NBA Superstar and Miami Heat player, LeBron James, was named named SPORTS ILLUSTRATED‘s Sportsman of the Year. LeBron is the second player to win an NBA championship, MVP title and a gold metal in the same year.

The achievements have won him the title of Sportsman of the Year by SPORTS ILLUSTRATED magazine.



LeBron reflected on winning the honor and his “Decision” to move to Miami saying,
“I remember just like yesterday when I signed here and basically, like the roof caved in. “To see that I and my team and everyone around me was able to patch that roof up, to come to this point, to come to this point and receive such a prestigious award, it’s huge.”
Sports Group editor Paul Fichtenbaum said,
“LeBron kind of made it easy on us. In a year that had really high standards, he just stood taller than everybody else. I do think there has been some sort of closure – maybe not entirely in Cleveland, but across the nation. LeBron’s jerseys are now the No. 1-selling jerseys. I think there’s a reason for that. I think people really appreciate him for everything he can do.”
Mike Krzyzewski, head coach of Team USA, beautifully described LeBron saying,
“The game is a house, and some players only have one or two windows in their house because they can’t absorb any more light. When I met LeBron, he only had a few windows, but then he learned how beautiful the game can be, so he put more windows in.
Now he sees the damn game so well, it’s like he lives in a glass building. He has entered a state of mastery. There’s nothing he can’t do. God gave him a lot but he is using everything. He’s one of the unique sports figures of all time, really, and he’s right in that area where it’s all come together.” A voracious mind has caught up with a supreme body. The marriage is a marvel.”

Music Monday: Joe Budden Names Features on "No Love Lost

 
 
Joe Budden also reveals a lost project titled "Feature Presentation."
Shortly after releasing his new mixtape A Loose Quarter, Joe Budden is setting his sights on his upcoming album No Love Lost, releasing on January 22.

During an interview with Hard Knock TV, Jumpoff Joey revealed some of the features on the LP, stating that he's landed collaborations with Wiz Khalifa, Lloyd Banks, Kirko Bangz and more.

"I got some features that fans that have followed me wouldn't be accustomed to me having. I threw it very outside of the box," he said. "I got a record with me, Lloyd Banks and Juicy J. I got another record with me, Wiz and French [Montana]. I got another record with Kirko. I got another record with Omarion.

I probably have never worked with as many people as I did on this project, and that goes into the album title No Love Lost. I've been doing things different throughout my entire career and I'm just kind of a one-man wrecking crew."

He also gave props to a few up-and-coming New York emcees, stating that rappers like Joey Bada$$ and A$AP Rocky inspire him to be better himself. "It's dope. I'm all for the young energy, it inspires guys like me.

Joey Bada$ is a badass. He's nice. A$AP probably has my favorite record out right now, 'Fuckin' Problem.' Love that record. Anytime you can get a different type of energy from cats - the fact that they're from New York is a plus, it's a bonus. I don't hear that when I listen to them. I just hear good music."

He also revealed that he once considered doing a project titled Feature Presentation where he enlisted guest features from some of his favorite artists. He managed to get a verse from Blu and Elzhi, but ended up having to squash the idea after Eminem rallied the Slaughterhouse troops to record their sophomore album.

"Shit, I still have those tracks. Blu sent the verse, Elzhi sent the verse... I was going to do a project called Feature Presentation where I was going to get with all the guys that I regard as being some of the illest emcees on the planet," he said. "Those are two of the people I reached out to and they sent a verse, and as soon as those verses started to come, Em called us all and said, 'It's time to go.' ... I don't even know if I would even want to insult them and put those verses out after they sent them so long
