Florida Gators Take 2007 BCS Title 2007-01-09 08:17:11
No. 2 ranked University of FloridaGators
straight destroyed No. 1 Ohio State Buckeyes with a score of 41-14, Monday night at the BCS Bowl, which took place at the University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. Many predicted that the OSU Buckeyes would wipeout the Gators in last night’s game, and it seemed as if those predicitons would come true as the Buckeyes scored a touchdown in the first 16 seconds of the game. However, Ohio State with it’s Heisman Trophy winner Troy Smith could not hold up to the amazing performance of the Gators’ Chris Leak and Tim Tebow. This is the Gators’ second national title, with their first being over Florida State in 1996. The University of Florida’s basketball team also won the national championship last spring by defeating UCLA in Indianapolis.

Diddy's 3rd Single 2007-01-07 18:14:56
Okay, just to let you guys know, I am like the biggest hater of Diddy
’s rapping. I think he’s the worst rapper to ever put out an album (just a personal opinion, take it lightly). But now on his third single, called “Last Night”, he has the audacity to take a stab at singing. Can you say hot mess? The song features the very talented Keyshia Cole. Click here to listen
RUMORS: Tyrese Under Investigation? 2007-01-05 03:43:27
So the buzz is that Tyrese
is under investigation after a domestic incident that took place in his L.A. home, at 5 A.M. January 4. Word is that Tyrese got into an altercation with his pregnant girlfriend, and punched her in the stomach. He reportedly jumped in his car and fled, as paramedics were called to the scene… Not sure if this is true, but if it is that’s pretty messed up…

Megan Mullally Show Cancelled 2007-01-04 07:21:52
Looks like former co-star of NBC’s long-running sitcom Will & Grace Megan
Mullally will have to find another day job… Speculation that her daytime talk-show will not be returning for a second season is true. Only midway through the first season, NBC Universal, the company that syndicates the show, has already halted production… Mullally’s show continued to lie at last place in ratings, trailing behind Oprah, Dr. Phil, and Rachel Ray’s new daytime talk show… WOW! I’ve seen the show a few times and I’m not too crazy about it… but I feel sorry for the chick… I mean if Tyra’s still on the air, who can’t have a talk show?

Vanessa Minnillo Drops the F Bomb On Live TV 2007-01-02 01:21:15 Okay so last night I caught the MTV Goes Gold New Year’s Bash, and towards the end I kept sayin to myself that this Vanessa
chick (one of the MTV VJs) looks a lil throwed. She was actin kinda crazy througout the show, but she surprised everyone when we she dropped off the f word while introducing a Ciara performance. I didn’t actually hear her say it last night, I just caught the audience’s reaction. But luckily, I found the clip!:
Also, I guess the rumors of her and Nick Lachey dating are true, as the camera showed them goin at it (making out) as the Times Square ball dropped to ring in the New Year. Read more:Drops

RUMORS: Tyrese Altercation Exaggerated 2007-01-09 22:25:29
A few days ago I reported on the rumor that after an altercation with his pregnant girlfriend, R&B singer/actor Tyrese
Gibson punched her in the stomach and then fled his L.A. home. Well according to TMZ.com, the girl’s lawyer says that parts of the story were not true. Check this out:
The woman’s attorney tells TMZ, “Reports that Tyrese punched my client — his girlfriend — in the arm, thigh or anywhere else are false. It is true, Mr. Gibson and his girlfriend had been arguing. She became very emotional and distressed during the argument and called 911 in an attempt to get a mediator. Mr. Gibson, frustrated, left the home.

Billboard Report: Dreamgirls Tops Top 200 2007-01-11 01:21:35
Fresh off of gaining several SAG nominations, the good news keeps on rolling for Dreamgirls as the soundtrack for the hit movie has reached number one on Billboard

G-Unit Condoms? 2007-01-11 02:49:50 Looks like rapper 50 Cent is coming out with his own line of condoms. (LOL!!!) Check the article below from ABC News:
Jan. 8, 2007 — You have his CDs, you’ve chugged his vitamin water, you’ve worn his clothing but will you buy his condoms?
The heavily diversified rapper 50 Cent is coming out with a line of condoms.
“The kids become immune when you constantly beat them over the head — read a book, read a book,” the rap star tells the New York Post.
“We have to be a little more creative about it. It’s the same with safe sex. As opposed to being part of a safe-sex campaign, I’m going to make condoms and donate a part of the proceeds to HIV awareness.”
50 Cent and G-Unit recently launched a line of books, with the first one called “The Ski Mask Way.” The 31-year-old rap star says he plans to turn the book into a film, with production beginning next year. He says he’ll probably have a role in it, because one of the ch Read more:Condoms

Rumors: Jay-Z & Beyonce's Relationship Troubles? 2007-01-11 06:51:45 Okay it seems as if there’s more Jay-Z and Beyonce
rumors out there than there are blogs to report them… first they’re engaged, then they’re getting married, then there’s an alleged sex-tape and blah blah blah… So far none of it has been true, and I believe that this one is no different. But it’s still always fun to report these ludicrous stories. So according to the Best Week Ever blog, Bee’s assistant claims that Jay-Z pushes Beyonce around and man-handles her and stuff… Check out her assistant’s alleged statement:
Now I've never seen him just flat out strike Bee, but too many times have I seem him shove and push her. At first I thought that it was just a little horse play thing between the two - but once I saw how embarrassed Bee was to be man-handled in the front of me in St. Tropez - I realized that it was no joke.
He treats Beyonce like she's an object and not a person. The [EXPLETIVE] should be happy that a beautifu Read more:Relationship

Throwback Thursday! 2007-01-12 02:36:06 Sorry I’m late with this but it’s still Thursday
, so here’s my two Throwback
Thursday picks:
Alicia Keys - Girlfriend
Okay this song is off her hit debut album Songs In A Minor that came out back in 2001. If you payed attention to her video for “Fallin”, you heard this joint at the very beginning. The main reason I picked it is because I never knew this video existed until yesterday. Enjoy:
Check the second Throwback Thursday video after the jump.
Snoop Dogg feat. Pharrell & Charlie Wilson - Beautiful
Now this song was a HUGE Summer Banga back in 2003. And to top it all off the video was full of sexy Brazilian beauties. This song is off of Snoop’s Paid Tha Cost to Be Da Bo$$ LP. Check it out:
Ummm….. Paula? 2007-01-13 04:43:37 Okay, so Paula
Abdul did a live interview via satellite yesterday for a FOX affiliate in Seattle, and she was obviously either drunk or extremely high… which made for some pretty funny, entertaining TV… Check out the clip:
Beyonce Lies; Ne-Yo wrote ALL of "Irreplaceable" 2007-01-12 22:47:30 So Ms. Beyonce
started off telling fans that she wrote
her now hugely successful hit “Irreplaceable
,” as you can see in the clip below. Turns out that is a lie.
But then on a few talk-shows she admitted that she co-wrote the song with Ne-Yo. Well that’s not so true either…
Ne-Yo admitted in a recent Power 106 interview that he wrote the entire song and Beyonce only wrote a few harmonies. Again, Beyonce has exaggerated the facts… Co-writing does not equal coming up with a harmony… So to all you ladies who call “Irreplaceable” an anthen and talkin bout this and that, yo anthem was written by a MAN! So how that feel? Just playin with yall… Listen to Ne-Yo sing “Irreplaceable”.

Okay, so I was reading my second favorite blog CONCRETE LOOP, and they posted photos of a recent baby shower for R & B singer Mashonda (who sang the hook on Cassidy’s 2004 hit “Get No Better”) and her husband Swizz
Beatz. Okay so am I the only one who had no idea that they were married AND they have a kid? I feel so behind.. Anyway, you can check out the pictures from the baby shower over at Concrete Loop.
THROWBACK THURSDAY 2007-01-19 03:28:18 Okay yall, I’m sorry about the lack of posts these past few days, but school just started back. So I’ve been getting accustomed to my new classes and buying books and all that good stuff. Once I get settled, I promise I’ll keep this place updated. Anywho, here are my picks for today’s, well tonight’s, Throwback Thursday.
Case - Happily Ever After
Okay so this was a hot song back in the day; still is. I don’t know what happened to Case, dude had some real talent. Other hits of his include “Touch Me, Tease Me”, “Faded Pictures”, “Missing You”, and “Not Your Friend.” This song here came out in 1999 I think, and oh yeah Beyonce is in this vid. Check it out:
Outkast - Ms. Jackson
Okay, so I picked this one because I haven’t seen the video in a loonnggg time. It’s hard to believe that this came out close to SEVEN years ago, in 2000. It was off of their HOT album Stankonia. Check the vid:
Colts vs. Bears in Super Bowl XLI 2007-01-22 04:38:53 For the first time in 21 years, the Chicago Bears
