Remy Ma is going to jail! 2008-03-27 13:31:00 According to TMZ, Remy Ma has been found guilty!"The verdict just came down in the Remy Ma trial, and the rapper has been convicted on four major charges — two counts of first-degree assault, attempted coercion, and criminal possession of a weapon.The charges stem from a 2007 incident in which Remy shot a friend of hers after a fight over $3,000 in cash stolen from Remy’s purse. The defense tried to make the shooting an accident — but it looks like they didn’t quite convince the jury. Remy was not found guilty of gang assault and witness tampering, among the nine total charges she faced. We’re told the victim’s friends and family taunted Remy when the verdicts were read — full pandemonium in the courtroom. Remy could face up from five to 25 years in prison at sentencing."Damn

It's not looking good for Nas and Kelis 2008-03-27 12:10:00 Things are not looking good for my favorite celebrity couple Nas and Kelis
. I found these pictures on the internet of Nas and Kelis leaving Katsuya Restaurant in Hollywood. It looks as if Nas was escorting Kelis out to her car. There have been rumors escalating for a while that the two were headed to splitsville. I am not a body language reading expert, but from the looks of the pictures, they looked very withdrawn from each other. Kelis looked very heartbroken sitting in her car and she was not wearing her wedding ring. Maybe, they received bad news, this is another publicity stunt or the rumors are true….story developing.
Kimora is making it official! 2008-03-27 11:51:00 Did yall know that Kimora and Russell were not officially divorced? the couple separated in March 2006, but it looks like now that Kimora has gotten a hold to a chocolate magic stick and Russell has found him a super flexible Barbie doll they have officially called it quits. According to TMZ, Kimora filed for Divorce today. “The papers, filed today in Los Angeles County Superior Court by Kimora, cite irreconcilable differences as the reason for the split. She is asking for legal and physical custody of the couple's two daughters Ming Lee and Aoki Lee. In this petition she is not seeking spousal support. If this feels like deja vu, it is. Russell reportedly filed for divorce in March 2006, but in August of '07 Kimora told OK! Magazine that they were not divorced yet, and "who knows" what Read more:making

WTF is this? 2008-03-26 17:54:00 Now, I am not trying to test homeboy’s gangsta, but I was in Hollywood one night and saw Tank's body guard pull his hoe card in the parking lot of some club. I found this video on LIVESTEEZ, I must say, it is hilarious. Apparently Suge Knight is coming out with some reality TV show, punking poor kids trying to make it in the entertainment industry. I think this little reality show is going to be very entertaining...and ignorant. Suge Knight has a very intimidating bark, but he does not bite...from what I saw, if you stand up to the guy and let him know you mean business, he'll back down.I wish him the best of luck with his comedy/ reality show.Double click the video at the top for a good laugh!

The short film shows an American military funeral interspersed with clips of 50 Cent crying and paying tribute to the 37-year-old. The In Da Club hitmaker - real name Curtis Jackson - is then seen revealing the real reason for the tape, pointing to the poor sales of Fat Joe's latest album The Elephant In The Room. Fat Joe's record sold 46,000 copies in its first week of release in the U.S., while 50 Cent released a spoof mixtape on his website the same week a
Remy Ma is going to jail! 2008-03-25 17:46:00 I don’t believe this ish…after I was team Remy and rooting for her…she is now claiming that the shooting was accidental? WTF…Her lawyer has admitted that the rapper did fire the shots, but it was an accidental discharge during a fight. Don’t play with guns, if you don’t know how to use them. The weapon should have been on safe to begin with. Remy Ma might as well get her care packages ready and set money for her books on the side, this is not going to be nice. Jury deliberation began yesterday and Remy Ma faces up to 25 years in prison.Remy Ma, if you were going to keep it hood, you should have kept it hood all the way and never denied involvement in the situation…now you are not only guilty, but a liar in societies eye…sometimes keeping it hood, just aint worth it!

Destiny's Child hating on each other? 2008-03-29 14:20:00 "So Kelly Rowland re-released her 2007 album this week, and then, somehow, a Beyonce song mysteriously appears on the internet. Beyonce says it was a "leak." Then Michelle Williams gets in on the action, releasing pics of herself from an upcoming album. Coincidence, or is this your basic jack move?"I personally don't think that Beyonce's leak or Michelle's promo pics had anything to do with the weak sales of Kelly Rowland's album...If you have a strong fan base and people that support you, they are going to support you, regardless. People need to stop making excuses, accept failure and learn from failure to become stronger. I mean, Beyonce's leak was free to listen to and Michelle's pictures were free to view, so, what does that have to do with album sales? Someone please enlighten me. Read more:Destiny

And Buzz has learned exclusively that the evening will also serve as the inaugural fund-raiser for a brand-new teen center to be named in Angelou’s honor at the Andrew and Walter Young YMCA on Campbellton Road."Maya Angelou is the embodiment of who she’s writing about in her poem ‘Phenomenal Woman,’ " Andrew Young told Buzz. "It also pretty much describes what we’re shooting for with the new center as well. For a while now, we’ve wanted to create a teen center at the Y in a supervised environment.
