Ahhh...so in love.

By Honeygrip

Bigga are away on holiday. Ringing in the New Year on some island, somewhere. Proving that love has to be boring as hell in order to really work.

I'll have what he's having...

Word is that Diddy is shutting Miami down this New Years Eve, with all the debauchery that a Diddy event usually offers. Diddy was spotted out this week in MIA at a party with Brett Ratner (not shown) Casey Affleck (brother of Ben; who macked his beloved J.LO) and Joaquin Phoenix.

Yep, that is Joaquin and he was doing the DAMN THING!!! Can't you smell him through your moniter??

Joaquin decided bathing was optional now that he has retired from acting.

The look of dazzled dirtbomb disbelief on Diddy's face makes me green with envy...

It screams: Is this nigga serious?!!

The Other Other...

By Honeygrip

Sarah Chapman, Diddy's other baby mother in Atlanta, was spotted out on the town with friends (shoutout to Burger!) this week. Style Razzi claims she made a dazzling appearance at Leo Marshall's birthday bash.

Meanwhile, Diddy was in LA with Kim & the family; doing some last minute Christmas Shopping with his mini-me. And you wonder why Kim stays mad...

A.O.B.T.D.: Eartha Kitt

By Honeygrip

Died Christmas Day at age 81. Born Eartha Mae Keith, she was a legendary performer and pioneer.


Let's hope that Beyonce takes pity on us now and spares us her rumored potrayal of the icon.

Just Cause...

I didn't get you anything for Christmas. Plus, I'm stuck at home watching "The Jacksons" on VH1. I decided there is nothing like the original. :) Even if he is out of his mind...

Teairra Mari is trying to make a comeback from a never was. It seems like just yesterday she was the "Princess of the ROC" and Rihanna was envying her. My! How times have changed...
She's bringing out her Teairra Fierce in these promo pics.

Desperately trying to stay relevant is never an easy game. Nice coat though.

Shiny New: Beyonce

Beyonce released 2 videos yesterday..."Diva" and "Halo". I spotted them early on youtube but couldn't blog at the plantation so I missed an opportunity. Oh well-- good luck finding them on youtube. I am too tired and don't care enough about Bey to look for them now.

My Anthem

I know I'm late. But I love this song. And I know that I have established a love/hate relationship with him but this is my favorite Kanye song right now. It's my favorite work out song too; because it gets my hype enough to try and do 10 more of whatever I'm doing. I also love it because I love Kanye on this track. Every verse is a deeply personal 'fuvk you' to every hater or non believer he's probably encountered in his career. And you can feel his anger & passion in his delivery. I love it- so I decided I need to post it here.

"I guess it's gonna be what it's gonna be; but here's one thing ya'll got to hear. I'm tell you like George Bush told me; Fuck you niggas-I'm outta here" ---My new favorite person. ;)

Even Crackheads get a holiday...

By Honeygrip

While the rest of us are forced to deal with the long lines filled with savages and the pressure to meet the holiday deadlines with nasty weather. It's comforting to know that Amy Winehouse is spending Christmas with family & friends in St. Lucia. I don't understand why she is not in a hospital/rehab somewhere or why she is frolicking around the beach topless and with full crack belly bloat in view of the paps,but it still fills me with Xmas cheer. Peep the NSFW stocking stuffers below...

The Best Cover EVER!

You'll have to humor me a moment. I Love Radiohead and I was stopped in my tracks the other morning when Howard Stern played this live cover of "Creep" played on a ukulele by a woman named Amanda Palmer.

I'm ignorant to Amanda; but she has done a cover of the song that is hands down better than the original. Unfortunately she only performs this song in concert so I have been replaying this version from youtube. I know it's weird, but I had to share it. And besides--it's MY damn blog so I hope you enjoy it ;-)

Click here for the original if you want to compare.

Does it count??

By Honeygrip

So news reports are claiming that Beyonce has to have 2 engagement rings. One is the 5 million bauble that she sported to the Fashion Rocks event in September (pictured above) and a lesser meager $5,000 fake. Star Magazine claims:
"When Jay Z proposed to Beyonce with an 18-carat flawless diamond ring (est. at $5 million), he also presented her with a imitation version (valued at $5,000) so she can wear it on stage and out in public."

I'm not really sure what the purpose of having 2 rings is or the purpose of reporting this story to the public, but my question is if your man gives you a fake ring does it still count as him "Putting a ring on it."

I need this...

By Honeygrip
THIS coat, and the sweater she hiding underneath.

Within the last year or so Rihanna has established herself as the one to watch & beat. Her music game & her Style Swagger are ions head of her competion. I hope Rihanna was out in Paris shopping for the perfect Xmas gift to give her stylist, cause whoever they are they certainly deserve it!

Poor Bey, she wishes she could pull of this kind of edgyness. Now if only Rihanna could find a hotter boy toy accessory then Chris Brown. He's cute but beneath her...:/

P.S.- If you could tell me who designed the coat & the sweater you will win a special prize. :)

Beyonce still needs more people...

This is the trailer for Beyonce's new movie "Obsessed" also starring Idris Elba. Beyonce is constantly playing it safe be it her fashion, her music or her movies. And I'm not buying her as a wife scorn trying to protect her family. She seems like the turn the other cheek type, too busy catering to her man. Maybe she should have played the more interesting part as the stalker chick...

Talk about a BASHment!

I don't know what started this "RUMULE" but I know this one brings new meaning to the term "Snatching a bitch bald".

Let's not even comment on the fact that both of these women look WAY too old for all of these antics...

Can we make a new rule??

DO NOT PARTICIPATE IN RAGGEDY NIGHTCLUB BRAWLS WITHOUT SECURING YOUR FAKE HAIR ON YOUR HEAD.

This is yet another example of why I stopped going to the club...SMGDH!

This is not news...

By Honeygrip

Damn!, Can't a married woman wear a sexy dress and leave her wedding ring at home for a night out on the town without causing a sh*t storm of controversy? JEEZ!

According to Us Weekly; there's some trouble on the Lopez/Anthony homefront.
They site Anthony's controlling ways as a primary reason. Apparently Marc, was the one who pressured Lopez to lose the J.Lo moniker as well as return to her puerto-rican roots and leave the P.Diddy influenced pop stuff behind. Which ultimately contributed to her career washing away. Us says:
"Jennifer looked around and said, 'This is my life now? I'm a Long Island housewife?' She hates that everything she worked for went down the tubes."

Lord knows, Jennifer is a Leo, and Leos LOVE the spotlight. But if that isn't enough proof they also claim that Marc has been out strolling on the Hoe Scene.
"One night after their tense family Thanksgiving in which the couple 'didn't sit together,' Anthony hit NYC hotspots Bungalow 8 and Marquee, where he was spotted with his hand on a woman's thigh and overheard complaining about his wife to a group of women, 'telling them, 'She's making me miserable.'"

Oh come on now... Jennifer has absolutely NOTHING to worry about. It's not like Marc Anthony would ever cheat on his wife after she gave birth to his two children... Thier relationship is as secure as they come!

"Listen here, man"

I usually can't stand Jamie Foxx. But the other morning he went in on fellow actor Terrance Howard. Jamie was on Big Boy's Radio program promoting his new album; Intuition. I guess he's taking the 50 Cent route of drumming up "beef" with his competition in order to increase album sales.

I hope these two can laugh about Jamie's impression of him, because it's hysterical. And I agree 100% with Jamie's assessment of Terrance's one dimensional acting ability.

Poppa Joe's gonna kill him...

Pete Wentz of Fall Out Boy a.k.a."Mr. Ashlee Simpson" was on the Howard Stern Show this morning to promote F.O.B's new album; 'Folie A Deux'. And as always Howard digs deep and gets to the tough questions.

Pete opened up about his troubled youth of playing russian roulette while on Ambien and kissing guys for 'shock value'. [side eye] He also admitted to jacking off in front of Ashlee and masterbating to her magazines covers. Talked about her lap dancing skills and even accidentally called himself an "Ashlee Girl" [He meant Boy] and showed Howard, Robin & the crew his underwear with Ashlee's name all over it.

Pete also gushed about fatherhood and cleared up the misleading reports about not being able to sell off the photos of his new son BRONX. As if talking about banging Lindsay Lohan and Michelle Tractenberg wasn't enough to upset his new wife who just gave birth a few weeks ago. He also admitted that Ashlee indulges him in alittle Anal, calling his wife "A really good girl". What does that mean-you ask???

Apparently-- Pete likes it up the butt and Ashlee is a good enough girl to give it to him...

Someone needs to reprioritize...

Instead of STILL talking about Jayzus leaving him for dead; he needs to be trying to figure out how to regroup and rebuild. Oh yeah, and paying his bills. Someone should explain there's nothing to be gained by reliving the past. Sounds like Post traumatic Stress disorder to me...

Nobody cares about the death of the dynasty, Dame. STFU!

Shhhh!

Hip Hop Icon Doug E. Fresh is joining the Foreclosure Club. I still haven't had a chance to make the foreclosure template. He's just the lastest. The recession is killing everybody. Fresh, pictured above in the sunglasses, has been socked with three foreclosure actions by banks looking to collect more than $3.5 million in unpaid mortgages on a trio of his Harlem homes…

Umm, If you can't afford one property, why not sell the other two and...Oh Nevermind! People need to get it together and fast. It's time to start living alittle more realistically with your finances.

End of Days

By Honeygrip

I have a catergory on this blog called "THIS is why I stopped"; it usually refers to why I stopped hitting the club scene. But this picture here is the epitome of why I stopped. This is a picture from a party that Lil Kim attended this past Friday in NYC. PLEASE NOTE-This photo was not taken at a strip club, this was a regular night club. With that said-- You know we are in the 'end of days' when Lil Kim is the one in the photo dressed respectfully.



What's most trouble some for me is the fact that the young lady in this outfit has NO BUSINESS in this outfit. She has no azz, no tits, no NOTHING. AND she got the nerve to show her ass in this photo like she's got something that someone would want. Young women nowadays have reached new lows in their desperate bids for attention. I blame the BUFFIES of the world for convincing regular ass chicks (no pun intended) that this is OK.

Hey Lame...DUCK!

Next time you in the club and your favorite song comes on forget your rags--Throw your shoe!

President Bush got an Iraqi welcome at a press conference during his visit there. For a Lame he sure ducks fast...haha...

He is SERIOUS.

Kanye is taking this tormented artist shit to new levels. I'm not even sure if this clip above sounds good. Kanye performed on SNL last night. The Supersized screen in the back and the EMOTIONAL dancing is driving ME crazy...If you see Ye-- Hug him for me! He is having a serious breakdown in front of us.

Heartless sounds better...and I do love him--But what a Dramatic Cunt?!

Damn.

Imma make a template for this...

Let's not even get into any level of reasoning as to why T-Boz of TLC has fallen victim to the Foreclosure Club. But she joins Fantasia Barrino, who also came close to losing her home earlier this week . Tionne Watkins' Georgia home has gone into foreclosure. Apparently selling millions of albums worldwide as 1/3 of one of the hottest girl group's of all times doesn't guarantee you the wearwithall to hire Business managers and accountants to help you afford a $530,000 mortgage. I guess people really need to understand the recession is HERE!

Shame on You.

MyFox Atlanta's I-team did an "expose'" on NeNe Leakes and her husband Greg's REALity situation. Don't these fools know better?

Not the Leakes's,but the damn I-team. Couldn't you tell that the these housewives were a damn mess from Episode 1?? From Sheree and her '"looking for a 7 figure settlement" to Kim and that damn witness protection program wig. These ladies were by no means filthy rich.

Somebody should have told them that it doesn't take much to fake the highlife in ATL. And just because someone wears name brand clothes and drives nice cars doesn't mean they have money. Nobody loves looking like money more than those that don't have any...

Just When...

I thought it was safe to be a fan of the new & improved Keyshia Cole. She does shit like this...SMH!

I'm in love with a Stripper.

While strolling the blogosphere, I found this little nugget of hot, rugged thug love on Dlisted. (Thank you, MK). Now ladies I know the winter can get very cold, but Malcolm is all mine...

Make him STOP!

I'm going to have to file Barry Manilow and his living dead cover of RICK ASTLEY's hit song under F for pure unadulterrated fuckery. No bones about it.

So Apparently, Beyonce's alter ego 'Sacha Fierce' is a Rihanna stan...

Bey was spotted on the set of her video for "Diva", in LA. By the looks of things Kanye might be right. Beyone's attempt to step out of the box appears to be heavily influenecd. Good news for Bey, Sacha and Rihanna are also scheduled to appear on tonight's American Music Awards on ABC starting at 7:00 EST.

Yay!

By Honeygrip
And Super YAY!

You know why?? Cause I am totally, super excited to hear this.
No Doubt is set to return with a new album and even a tour!

Gwen took time away from her life, to bestow some time amongst her fellow bandmates. The group will drop the album and tour sometime next year...

Sigh...Solange...

I feel like I need an interpreter. But I will give Solange a break, at least she seems original.

Is this really blind...

I was over at one of my favorite Blogs Dlisted where I found this little Diddy...

This B- list R&B singer just had her second abortion that her A list producer/singer boyfriend made her get. He says he doesn't want anymore kids and that if she wants to be with him then she needs to stay childless. I don't know if she is on birth control or not. I just know the details of what happened. She did get a nice $200,000 piece of bling after the first abortion. No word on what she got after this most recent one

C'mon now...Any guesses?

I'm with Anderson Cooper on this one...

Tonight is the Season Finale of The Real Housewives of Atlanta. But the above clip is from the controversial reunion show. I have to agree with Anderson Cooper- I loves me some NeNe. Watch as she lets delusional Kim have it...

Why is this song in my head??

Because I listen to the Howard Stern Show. After hearing this show this morning, I have been singing this diddy to myself. You can't front it is catchy.

All grown up, eh?

Bow Wow has been guest starring on Entourage, and I found this clip of his performance. I must say; He is a superb actor. lol. I tickle myself sometimes.

The more things change...

Is it okay to touch on this yet?
Barack Obama has made history by becoming the 44th President of the United States of America. In case you didn't know it- Barack Obama is also black. I was stunned last week when Obama won. I was overjoyed, I remember laughing at my neighbors who had ran to their windows or terraces to cry out and rejoice that a black man had been elected (overwhelmingly) by the people.

Then I stopped for a moment and turned to my dealer and said almost shamefully: "Lawd, please don't let them kill this nigga." We both laughed a little and shook our heads. We were both happy as hell. But I think it was one of those jokes where you laugh because the truth in it makes you uncomfortable.
We later sat there in silence and cried together watching Obama give his acceptance speech. History had been made and it was good history, something that I will always want to remember.

The next day I kept running across alot of White People who seemed to be happy about Obama. But they would say things like: "Well, let's hope things will get better now" Or "Let's hope we get the change we need" Now maybe it doesn't really mean much more than that. But I detected a nervousness from these people. As if they weren't sure they did the right thing.

Shame on anyone, who believes that 1. Obama can come in and save us from 150 years of a fucked up, one sided government. It can't be done in 8 years and it certainly can't be done in 4. Obama has to first make heads or tails of the destruction caused by the Bush Era. And as you can see they are already trying to find a way to get him to start working on problems that Bush swept under the rug. But I digress.

Racism doesn't cease to exist because we have a black president. If anything you will begin to see just how uncomfortable we really are with race in this country because of it. Racism is an ignorance that has to be deeply rooted in a person. You can be racist and have black friends or even dated outside of your race. And just because we voted for a spectacular candidate who happened to be black, don't think for a second racial views and/or stereotypes have died. Right Lindsay?

Alls well that ends well...

For those who care- Wendy Williams addressed the firing of Charlamagne tha God, from her radio show. Word has it that Wendy wanted to dispell the rumors that she was somehow responsible for his termination. Although she did agree that "budget cuts" did play a part.

Sources tell me that Inner City Broadcasting the parent company of WBLS has had it with Wendy and her "antics" after paying off her former Talent booker Nicole Spence [whom btw quit after she received her money]. You may remember that Nicole had filed a lawsuit for sexual harassment against Wendy, her husband and the station. Nicole continued to be employed by WBLS all through the turmoil and only recently up & quit. It seems like the station is trying to recoup from Wendy's show budget directly.

In other radio news The Star & BucWild Morning show will no longer be heard on Pulse 87. No word yet on what happened there. Just a cryptic post on the Star and Bucwild website.

Give me the name....

Of the person responsible for this shit right here. I hope this is a joke brought to us by the good folks over at C&D. I hope this is a photoshop project from a Nippy stan. It must be said that those kids have a wild imagination. Good Lawd!

You know it's a sad state of affairs when T-Pain can have it anyway he wants it.
He appeared on the Howard Stern Show yesterday morning and described his relationship with his wife. Listen up ladies., time to take notes. His loving wife brings home other women.

When you look at the picture above, doesn't it make you wanna smack someone. But then again we are in a recession... Some people are into anything. And if they like it, I love it.

T-Pain & his wife Amber; whom he married at age 18, started their lifestyle during a Costa Rican getaway in which T-Pain equipped with $20,000 american dollars allowed him to shut a strip club down. His wife picked out a girl she liked and the 3 went to a private area and after about 5 minutes his wife pulled out the dancers titty and started sucking it.

Oh really.

Crazy Eddie's

I wish I had a friend like Eddie Murphy. Page six is reporting that the only after hours party in Hollywood is at Eddie Murphy's Bachelor Pad. Oh you know, the estate with the guesthouse that Johnny Gill STILL resides in.

According to Page Six:

THE hottest after-hours party in Hollywood isn't at a club - it's at Eddie Murphy's Beverly Hills bachelor pad. One source said, "Eddie has taken the after-hours party up a notch since he's been single. Murphy and Johnny Gil [who lives in the sprawling manse's guesthouse] have been holding bowling tournaments in the house's bowling alley almost every weekend. He even hired DJ Ruckus to spin one party." Guests have in cluded Busta Rhymes [?], Bobby Brown and Dallas Austin [??].

Question:

Why does Johnny Gill STILL AFTER ALL THESE YEARS live in Eddie's guest house? Can't Johnny afford his own home?

Busta?? at an Eddie Murphy & Johnny Gill after hours pow wow...

Come to think of it, Why no mention of a bevy of beauties or a gaggle of girls??

Baby Talk.

Don't even read this one...

It seems that an email I received from a reader & informant 8 days ago is appearing to make sense now.

According to said email, '' the police in Chicago are only keeping William Balfour as a "person of interest" because they have no evidence to charge him with the Hudson Family Murders. As a matter of fact, the police are looking more intensely at some one more suprising...''

And according to TMZ. William Balfour might be a free man as of next Monday, because the so-called "parole voilations" he's currently being held on ain't really enough. I wonder who the police are really looking at?

Well, maybe that ish Bossip is saying got some validity...

I'm almost back...

I got less than 3 weeks before I return to work. I don't know if I will be able to communicate via blogger, when I do though, I will just be happy to have a job. That is the bottom line. Hey, speaking of bottoms...

A little birdy told me

By Honeygrip
This is probably NOT true, but Wendy Williams, who was rumored to have access to a sex tape featuring a "rapper's wife", might have had her minion Charlamagne "OUT" the dude who is also featured on the tape. It's ALLEGEDLY this dude right here. His name is Infa Red. He used to be down with Ruff Ryders and is known in Hip Hop circles as a ghost writer for artists including Jadakiss and Eve.

The wife is herself an R&B artist. This clue has led most to believe it is Kelis in the video. The question at hand was when the tape was shot. (Pre-Nas or After...)

I'm starting to worry about him...

Kanye West visits Big Boy's Neighborhood from qdeezy on Vimeo.

I get it- Kanye is an arTIST!

But with this new 808 and heartbreak album...Kanye is really letting us in. Only a true "artist" can give you their real life...pain in the raw...joy...and emotion even if it's ugly.

Marvin Gaye did it. Stevie Wonder and some of the most soulful artists go in and examine themselves.

For instance-I have had debates with my dealer over "Love Lockdown" his arguement was that Kanye (being on some even more new "New Shit") is about to lose his fanbase. He described the track and "dark" & "morbid". I on the other hand love it just for that reason. There is no braggard Kanye (The Louis Vitton Don) on this album (as he explains in the above video); there is only a dude that within the last past year lost the most important person in his life.

His moms was his glue, and with out her we are hearing the product of him coming undone...

Hopefully people will get that.

I personally think the song is a ode to the break off of his engagement to Alexis Phieffer. But what do I really know...;)

I Got my Mojo Back...

Seven weeks post baby and counting! It seems that I have gotten back in more ways than one. :)

I was over at Necolebitchie and I noticed this picture of Ludacris out at some BET Hip Hop Awards party and what not (who cares?!) Any way- Why haven't I ever noticed that Luda could definitely get it?

In recent months I have added numberous candidates to this catergory including Common (even now that he looks suspect with Serena) and Dawn from Tranity Kane's ole boy Q.

Well, Not only am I adding Ludacris to this elite special task force, But I'm making it a new catergory on this blog.

I.HATE.HER...

I know that I have been M.I.A., but it's hard to do anything besides change diapers, make bottles and soak spit-up out of your clothes...

I was blessed enough to miss the "If I were a boy" video (aw hell, I just turn as so as it comes on...)

SO imagine my dismay when I saw this video today. Bey in a unitard shaking her ass with the terminator hand on and flashing a ring on her ringfinger when up until a few minutes ago, she wouldn't even acknowledge the marriage happened? I guess super secretive Bey-Z isn't above pimping out their relationship to increase record sales.

I ain't even mad really. But I'll tell you one thing, I'm pushing my workout routine to two times a day. shiiit.

I know, I'm late....But

Listen Here! I JUST had a baby. So I am WAAAY behind...

I refuse to talk about R. Kelly on any level. But I couldn't resist this piece when corny ass Funkmaster Flex went in on this nigga...LOL!

Stevie Wonder could see this one...

The NY Post needs should try a little harder on this one...

WHICH music mogul treats his superstar wife like she’s a servant? But she doesn’t mind. “She’s Southern and thinks men should be the boss,” laughs one friend.

If you've ever been in one of those groupie chat forums; you already know all that glitters with these two ain't really gold.

On some new ish...

Kanye ("Fuck MTV!!") West premiered his shiny new single and sound last night on the VMA's. I couldn't stick with that mess for too long. It's a damn shame that the production quality of the show is starting to rival the BET awards. But Any hoo, his new album hits stores in December.

(I'm definitely feeling it- how 'bout you??)

Introducing...

By Honeygrip
Morgan Isadora Williams. She made her debut at 4:50 pm on Tuesday, September 2, 2008. She was born via C-section weighing 7pds 3oz.

I am so happy for so many reasons. But I still can't believe that she is really here. I swore a long time ago that I would never have another child. My first experience with my son 11 years ago was traumatic for me, because I felt overwhelmed and under supported by his father. My memories of my wonderful child; Nicholas, was overshadowed by negative people and a negative experience. But I was tested again, And now I know that I was really blessed. I am glad that both of my children are here.

Now excuse me while I go take a nap! :)

Is anyone surprised that Halle Berry's daughter Nahla is gorgeous... [Is she wearing lipgloss?-jk]
As adorable as Halle's baby girl is, this is really starting to depress me. My due date is this week and my baby girl is still not coming out! You can clearly recall that I have been over this pregnancy for about four months now. Maybe Halle finally letting her baby Nahla see the light of day is a sign that my baby will make an appearance sometime this week!

BUSTED: David Duchovny

By Honeygrip

((Men... they are brilliant fools.))

Who comes up with the old excuse "Sex Addiction"? What exactly does that really mean? I mean how do you fight sex addiction, how do you treat it?? How can I tell a sex addict from a normal man? Can anyone tell me?? LOL! I'm sorry but that shit makes me giggle. You can't be serious. It's not like women are going to stop throwing pussy at David Duchovny because he claims he has a serious problem...:/

I think it's his wife's way of saving face. It's like saying "look world, My husband isn't a no good bastard who can't keep his penis in his pants he has an addiction. Please don't enable him, please don't make it worse!"

Duchovny's reps released a statement to People Magazine:
"I have voluntarily entered a facility for the treatment of sex addiction. I ask for respect and privacy for my wife and children as we deal with this situation as a family."

Nigga Please....SMH!

Oh YES! We CAN...

No matter what the outcome is in November. HISTORY was made tonight.

Barack Obama was officially voted as the Democratic nominee for President of the United States of America at the Democratic National Convention. The first African American in our country's history to achieve this honor.

After a few states officially gave their votes in their respective speechs, Sen. Hillary Clinton spoke over a cheerfully thunderous for NY and moved to suspend the roll call vote and officially name Sen. Obama the Democratic Nominee. Whatever happeens on Election day, my children will still be able to see the tangible possibilites for their future. They will know that anything is really possible.

Thanks Jesse!

I'm still hopelessly pregnant and DEPRESSED, but this little diddy just put a smile on my face.
Thanks Jesse McCartney. I needed that. Cause someday this never ending pregnancy will be over and my baby crumbsnatcha will be posted up in her vibrating bouncer while I walk it out...

This one is really "JUICY"...

By Honeygrip
Faith Evans is finally (and I MEAN FINALLY!) shedding some light on her life and her relationships with some of the most important hip-hop artists of all time. The book is said to be extremely candid and revealing. I have read some excerpts on other blogs but found this one too juicy to pass up. Especially since I know I heard about this encounter back in the day...

From "Keep The Faith"...
I don’t know what got into my head. But I decided that I needed to know once and for all what Big was really trying to do. On that night before Christmas, I drove to Big’s house on a mission to find out where I really stood.The security guard at the gate just waved me in when I pulled up. It was Christmas Eve and she’d seen me come into the complex with the kids, so I guess she didn’t think anything of it. I parked in the rear of Big’s town house and walked up to the garage. It was locked. I hadn’t been over to Big’s house a whole lot but I did know that you jiggle the garage door a certain way and unlock it. I got into the garage, where there was an elevator that would take me to both floors of Big’s duplex. There I was, rocking a black skully cap and a heavy goose-down jacket, tiptoeing into the elevator and pressing the button to go up to the second floor, where his bedroom was located. I got to Big’s bedroom door, turned the knob, and went inside.
As soon as I saw a small lump next to Big’s large frame, I flew into a rage, ran over to the side of the bed, and pulled back the covers. I grabbed some chick out of the bed and started beating her ass. At some point, the chick’s wig came off in my hand; It was a short, cropped wig. I stopped throwing punches for a minute to get a good look at the chick I was beating up. It was Lil Kim.

She was completely butt-naked, yelling as I pushed her around the room.“So you not fucking her, right?” I screamed at Big. “Yeah, you not messing with her anymore,right?”When they heard all the commotion, Cease, D-Roc, and Gutter came running into the room. ‘Oh shit!” they yelled in unison. “It’s Faye! How the hell she get in here?”Big sat up in bed and pointed at Kim, who was standing in a corner of the room, trying to cover her naked body with her hands while I was still yelling at Big. “Yo, get her outta here,’ Big said. They led Kim out of the room and she screamed and cursed the whole way. It was absolutely crazy in that house. Kim was naked and being led somewhere to get dressed. I was still screaming on Big. Damion, Cease, and Gutter were laughing in amazement that I would be so bold. And Big looked like he was just too through with all of us. He sat up in bed shaking his head. Kim left the house and I stayed, talking to Big about why he couldn’t be honest with me about her.‘I thought it was all about Tiffany?” [Charlie Baltimore] I asked. You still messing with Kim, too?” Big had nothing to say.

I have to say I actually felt some pity for Kim. Big had a wife, and she settled for messing with him. Then he started dating Tiffany and Big had a wife and a mistress. And Kim still settled for being other other woman. It seemed pretty sad to settle for that. When I left a few hours later to get the kids, I noticed that Kim had taken my key to my Land Cruiser and scratched up my entire car, from the hood to the back bumper. Even though we ended up having sex that day at that point I decided I was 100 percent through. I was not going to be a ride or die chick, always going to lengths to show Big how I felt. I was the mother of his child and his wife. But I was going to have to let go.

I have read through the comments on other sites hating on Faith for telling it now, or talking ill of the dead (both Pac & BIG) But Real talk, I believe 99% of all of it. I remember hearing the stories from insiders back in the day when it was all going down. I just can't understand (and never have) how BIG was able to leave all these chicks so SPRUNG...SMH...

Gwen Stefani gave birth to her second child earlier today in LA. She and hubby Gavin Rossdale named the baby Zuma. There is no word on the sex of the child but it's being reported that the baby was born via scheduled C-Section. SIGH!
This means that EVERYBODY has had there babies this year. I am officially the last pregnant person I know and this is depressing. Especially since I am being told that my baby is nowhere near ready to come out. I am looking at the prospect of being induced sometime LATE next week. SMH HARD!!!

The New Black Moses...SMH!

The only thing I need Ye to "Put On" is a shirt... AND FAST! You know this don't make no kinda sense. For as cocky as Kanye to be to have all this old man Isaac Hayes business going on under his shirt. Ummm...No Thanks!

Friendship is...

D.L. Hughley spoke at Bernie Mac's Funeral. This clip is filled with raw emotion, it will make you laugh and cry.

It's Official!

Buzz is that Wendy's six-week "trial show" has paid off. Fox announced today that "The Wendy Williams Show" will get a full order run next year. The show did extremely well in all the test markets and it will be added into nationwide rotation in Mid-2009. That's a very good look for Wendy, especially since insiders were already crowing that her days at WBLS are numbered...

Sigh, these young girls never learn...

It seems Cassie musta got it twisted when she thought that she was gonna be different. Turns out she may have just become the "NEW" Kim Porter...SMH!

Page Six reports:
He’s publicly announced that his on-and-off flame is not the only woman in his life, but she’s not moving on. Our spies saw a sullen Cassie “looking smokin’ hot,” at the Empire Hotel the other night.
But it wasn’t enough to catch the eye of Diddy, who has emphatically shot down rumors that they’re exclusively dating. “Diddy spent the entire time with his entourage while she was being walked around by one of his assistants,” said our source. “She never smiled, and she kept looking over at him.” A rep for Cassie had no comment.

I hate to sound like an old bitty, but these girls need to understand that the allure of the New does not a relationship sustain...

How you get em is always how you lose em...

In Black, still blue...

LisaRaye may be having one hell of a month but she sure looks good. Too Bad this photo taken by photogragher Derek Blanks in combination with her antics on the Island; is not going to make the women of TCI like her anymore then they already don't-Please see below:

Boo Diamond Boo!!!

Hello again chil'ren. I'm sorry but I have been totally too pre-occupied with finding ways to make a baby crawl out of my poop-chute. I have missed all the fantastic Fuckery that has been life. I'm sure other blogs have kept you abreast. It seems that the "first lady" of Turks & Caicos and her Premier hubby have decided to call it quits.

Word is that the Rocsi of 106 & Park who has been long rumored to be (one of) the Premier's side pieces was all over the island with him at the TCI Music Festival acting as if LisaRaye had died. LisaRaye publicly denounced her hubby for his behavior and threw on a fuck em girl dress to hang out and party in NY and get shot at in ATL. But anyhoo- it seems that HE dropped LisaRaye faster than she could drop him--which must have evidently made her head spin...

My sources [yes I have a few!!!] reported that the "First Lady" high tailed it back to TCI with the intention of working things out only to find that ole boy wasn't interested. In fact, homeboy wanted to hear none of her talk and put out the word that she was not even allowed on the premises! Well Ms Diamond was having none of that shit! She picked her ass up after embarassingly checking into a nearby resort and headed straight to his door for the DRAMA!

"The fight, which reportedly occurred in the presence of a number of government officials, including the Minister for Health and Education, Lillian Been-Boyce, resulted in both Misicks seeking emergency medical attention for bites. Each has filed a police report against the other."

LisaRaye was detained (aka arrested) and then decided to try to save face with the performance above... HILARITY!!!

I'm sure we've only just begun...

Gotta love them....

While I was at work today. My co-worker Caroline and I got into a lovely conversation about annoying co-workers. This pleasantly reminded me of an old co-worker from my previous place of employment. Let's affectionately call him-Tragically hip white guy. So tragic in fact that his hipness borders on racist.

Oh come on! You all know at least one White person who is WHITE not whigger and still tries to prove how liberal and tolerant and cool with black people he is. The one who comes to you for the "Black opinion" on things. He who asks you about the latest rap-related controversy [because you CLEARLY have the insight!] Or goes hard in conversations about why Obama is a viable candidate. Or the one who loves to impress you with his interpretation of the black experience. And it's always okay because some of his "best friends are black".

Well I had one in particular- whom whenever I walked in a room would proclaim "Yo, yo, yo" now mind you I work in the very corporate world of Investment Banking and in my liberal and tolerant mind I would always try and take his BLACCENT has a corny white person's attempt at humor. Even when it would make me wince- I thought I would be considered uptight if I didn't laugh. Well anyway, Caroline introduced me to this site, and so I pass it to you...

Gotta love White People.

Two Big Losses...

This weekend started off with the shocking news that comedian Bernie Mac had passed away on Saturday at the age of 50. Mac was recently hospitalized with pneumonia but his publicist had been denying reports that the situation was grim. He admitted several years ago to battling a lung disease called Sarcoidosis.
Isaac Hayes was found dead in his Memphis home on Sunday. Hayes' career spanned many decades. He won several Grammys. He also won an Oscar for the theme song to "Shaft." Isaac was the voice for Chef on "South Park" from 1997 to 2006. Eerily enough Hayes plays himself in an upcoming movie called "Soul Man" which stars Bernie Mac....

R.I.P. to them both.

How I spent my Birthday...

By Honeygrip

I need to make a recommendation to any and all pregnant women. Please by any means; treat yourself at least once throughout your pregnancy to a prenatal massage. I had been scouring to find a place with one special condition. I needed a massage table that would allow me to lay comfortably on my belly so that the massseuse could concentrate on my poor over used lower back. The weight of my little crumbsnatcha has been tearing my back apart at the seams. So I was SO happy when my research led me to The Medical Massage Group on the UES of Manhattan. Here, they specialize in Prenatnal massage. However, this place is more like a chiropractor's office than a spa- but they did have the dimly lit massage rooms and asian music with ocean and wind sound effects. Well worth the money, cause mommies need love too!

Guess who's celebrating a birthday today??

Happy Birthday to ME!

Sooo....

I have a Blind Item. I heard a funny story about a Reality Show star. ALLEDEGLY -Late last year, riding high on the sucess of her reality TV career, it seems a friend of a friend who happens to be the head of security at a fancy Madison ave restaurant walked in on this said star on her knees in front of some old crusty white man in a bathrooom... When caught in the act she pronounced loudly: It's not what it looked like...SMH! I wonder what it was then.

Oh yeah- 'New York goes to Hollywood' premieres tonight at 10:00 on VH1.
