Why I Respect Ne-Yo

...I don't care what anyone says. Ne-Yo is an R&B artist, song-writer, blah blah, but he RIPPED this A-Milli beat. He seriously did. I don't even look at the man the same... Watch:

Picture Of The Day

The corniest couple on the planet continue their 6 week honeymoon in Florida at the Disney World resorts... For some reason, I think they are trying to dispell those unhappiness rumors, but I'm no judge and jury...

GAY (I mean Happy) Al Reynolds Speaks!

Just when we thought it was safe to deem this man an irrelevant victim of the post z-list vortex.... He resurfaces! Al Reynolds wants you to know the real him... SO much so, that he has dedicated a YouTube Channel to show the world how he is soooo not Mr. Star Jones, and never has been... Hmmmmm. Interesting. But just in case y'all were curious... Check it out! The douche disabled embedding, so I couldn't post it here. Just click on that link above, lazy bones!

Just In Case You Cared...

Jessica Alba and Honor Marie Warren made their photo-debut in OK! Magazine this week.... *Yawn*... Next!

Picture Of The Day

Guess who has just boycotted The New Yorker from now until eternity? Yep, you guessed it. The ridiculous levels of backlash to the inevitable Obama-victory is staggering. It's sad, pathetic and just plain bad journalism. The New Yorker wanted to do a satirical depiction of what the right-wing has painted the Obama camp as: Muslim-based terrorists. It really just came off as super-offensive and tacky. They should be ashamed. How did they expect this to translate? We have got to do better in 2008...

True "Queendom" Is 3 Babies By 3 Baby-Daddy's?

Girl, please. I'm just sayin... I love the Baduism just as much as the next soy-eating, granola-loving, natural-haired conscious soul-- however. I'm not judging, I'm just looking at pure facts. The Queen of "Neo-Soul": Erkah Badu, is pregnant with her third child. The father is her musical-mastermind protege: Jay Electronica. Badu has two other children by L.A rapper D.O.C, as well as her first child, Seven, with the enigma that is Andre 3000. I'll give her this much, she definitely has a knack for linking up with some flavorful fellas. But I can't say I would suggest conducting a family as broken-up as this one. 3 children with 3 fathers in one household is rough... I can't say it would be the healthiest environment for a child, but if she can do it successfully I suppose that's all that matters... I suppose. Badu is in the new issue of VEGNews magazine, blasting a lot of people and fans that have been hating on her lifestyle:

“How dare you disrespect the queendom … and my children and my intelligence. I’ve never been so disgusted in all of my life,” the singer began in her rant....
“I am a great mother and caregiver to my two children, and to this world,” Badu wrote. “My children are two of the kindest and happiest people I have met … I am their doctor and their nurse, and even sometimes their mother and their father. I am an excellent mother and resent all of the negative comments and insults on my character....”
“I put much time and though into having and raising my children. I’ve had the honors of having two home births and two wonderful partners by my side. Every relationship I have been in was because i loved the person dearly and was dedicated to us ‘exclusively’ for a number of years. The fathers of my children are my brothers and friends. We have a great deal of respect for one another and always will. We love out children to no end. We took our own ‘vows’ and continue to uphold them, and that is what that is. Question? What is marriage? Who is the judge? … Would it ‘look better’ to marry and divorce and marry again?”
She did admit that she may lose a few fans, but didn’t care, refusing to bite her tongue. “If I lose you as a fan because I want to continue to have children, then f*** off … who needs you … certainly not me … kick rocks … call Tyrone … pack light … bite me.... and....KISS MY PLACENTA” Badu wrote.

Some A-ROD anti-fans at the Yanks game yesterday proving that a picture is worth a thousand words....

YouTube Clip O' The Day: The Subway Stripper

Just when I thought life couldn't get any more interesting... Apparently in Chile, there is this mystical woman who goes around various subway stations rubbing her cuchifritos on random subway poles, while entertaining the masses of commuting men and women. I peeped this elegant clip on Dlisted... Big shouts to Michael K who is always good for a laugh! Check out the clip below:

1-877-BeKanye!

I was on the D train in NYC yesterday, and I saw a poster-ad for a new pill called "BeKanye", with a cheesin' Kanye West on the front. I was very confused, disturbed and disoriented-- I definitely had to google this mess...Kanye West (in conjunction with Absolut Vodka) has made a campaign about a new "pill" called "BeKanye". The spoofish advertisements showcases how to become Kanye West by popping one of his pills... I have no idea what they were on when they concocted this mess, but you can check out the website Here! Below is a clip of the infomercial that Kanye did for the product... This is really so strange, I have no idea what to do with this... SMH.

Progress...

According to CNN, Obama is leading in the popular vote by 8 points amongst registered voters nationwide. The gap is 49 to 41 with ten percent still undecided... I smell progress, and a change we can believe in!

Lindsay Lohan, ARE YOU SERIOUS?

Initially, when I heard LiLo was coming out with her own leggings line I actually thought it was clever. People had been talking about how Lindsay was EVERYWHERE in leggings, as if she doesn't own anything else. I thought it was a cool and cheeky response to capitalize off of the attention... Until now. How in samhill are you going to charge an average $100 retail for leggings.... LEGGINGS! I can get the same type of leggings for $14.99 on Fordham Road in the Bronx.... Or even $30 at American Apparel for chrissakes! This is an insult! Anyone who would ante-up that kind of dough for leggings needs a reality check, and my phone number-- I will teach you better and craftier ways to waste your money... SMH.

Picture Of The Day

I almost thought this was a photo-opp for FEED THE CHILDREN... Then I looked closer and realized it was former-ANTM winner Jaslene Gonzalez.. Beautiful girl, but showing off that bony-malnourished-bird-chest is so not the move for 2008...SMH.
