Mr. Sexy Obama Attends Wizards/Bulls Game



Earlier this week, Obama took a much-needed break by attending the Wizards/Bulls game. He watched his home-team lose, but he was still in good spirits... Speaking of SPIRITS:



I wonder what kind of beer Barack drinks... He looks like a foreign-draft kinda guy. My guess would be Heineken or Beck's. But if you gotta keep it local-- he'd strike me as a Sam Adams type: smooth and right on time! LOL. Oh come on, don't be mad. What, y'all ain't know ya girl was a beer enthusiast? Blame my father-- lol. I remember the good ol' days when I would greet him with a cold beer and his bedroom slippers when he came home from work... Ahhhh, memories. But I digress...

Anyway, I was more than happy to see Barack in a good mood, relaxing and enjoying a good ol' ball game. After all, that is the American way-- is it not?

Christina, Is That You??



The Internets are trying to make me believe that this is a snapshot of Christina Milian and The Dream last night in LA. I don't wanna believe it. She looks crazy. Why did she do that to her beautiful hair? She looks like a broke-down Goldie Hawn from "The Banger Sisters". I am so disappointed.



Word C? Look at what she USED to look like:



FOR SHAME! Smh...

Picture Of The Day



'Ye must be in love-- because I haven't seen him gallivanting around town with anyone as much as Amber Rose. Even his ex-fiancee didn't get this much shine... I mean, really. But once again, my previous theme is echoed right here... Most of you (including me) would veto this outfit completely. But there is STILL something to be said for a person who is confident and gutsy enough to do what feels good to THEM No matter what ANYONE else thinks. I always thought that was cool about Christina Ag, I always admired that in Grace Jones-- and Amber Rose is no different... And by the way, I'd kill for her purse and her shoes... MERCY!

Oh Goodness...



Has everyone gone mad and jumped on the: trying-to-be-avant-garde-with-my-nerdy-Pharrell-inspired-spectacles band-wagon? I mean gracious! It was bad enough when Jermaine Dupri and Jiggaman did it, but not you too T.I... Wow. It's STYLE over FASHION. Not fashion over style people... You have to know what works for you and run with it. Just because it's in-style, doesn't mean it will look good on you. Funny thing is, I recently dealt with a situation where my style-choice(s) were brought into question (rolling my eyes HARD @ that one). I have to laugh heartily at that though. Where others are content to stay within the box, I am MORE than comfortable outside of it. You gotta love it. The skin I'm in is awesome, and I wouldn't trade it just to look like some uninspired clone... You know, kinda like T.I in this flick above. SMH. Be yourself people! Make trends, don't let them MAKE YOU! And I'm gone.

CNBC's Black Millionaire Show Recruits Baby!



Thanks to my good friend Dr. Drew, I happened upon this interesting story. Apparently CNBC is doing a new show called, “NEWBOs: The Rise of America’s New Black Overclass”. It will showcase Black successful tycoons in sports, media and entertainment. Baby and his brother Slim will be featured on the show to discuss their rise to success. Sources have claimed that Baby got his fortune by buying part of an oil rig back in the day, and reaping the benefits. I have to say that I love his grind-mode. I also like how he thinks out of the box. This man looks like a buffoon, but he literally has money to burn-- and it's aaaaaaaaaaall right. Haha.

Picture Of The Day

Wow, for someone who was a hairpin away from losing his entire career, CB sure does look happy. He's out in Miami right now with Rihanna, patching up their dysfunctional mess, and chilling in Diddy's manse. He is also recording at the famous "Hit Factory", working on his latest album... I guess all is will in CB land-- man this has been a dramatic two weeks... But I have a question... Did homeboy not learn his lesson? Check it :



Is it just me, or does he look like he's about to punch homegirl in the face? SMH.

Cam'ron & Jim Jones Finally Speak...



NYC natives and hip-hop fans alike know that Dipset held down Harlem for the better half of the decade. But 3 or 4 years ago, the band-of-brothers known as "Dipset" disbanded-- with the head-honcho (Cam'ron) going his own way... There has been many-a-rumor about the nature of the beef and what went down-- but no one can deny there has been a rift. Last year, Cam finally release Juelz Santana from his contract, and now Juelz is free to work with Jim and people like Lil' Wayne all he wants. MTV News got the exclusive on the rare interaction between Jim and Cam... Check it:

"Hell Rell and J.R. Writer, they always check in," Cam said. "Everybody has been reaching out. I've been the one kinda saying Cam is going to take time do Cam. But Hell Rell and J.R. definitely been reaching out. I called [Freekey Zekey's] phone four or five days ago and Jim picked up Zeke's phone. Me and him spoke for about 10 or 15 minutes, but me and Zeek speak all the time. I haven't spoken to Juelz."

Cam described the phone call with Jones as pleasant.



"It was cordial. He knew it was me," Cam said of Jones. "He said we was gonna holla — maybe we'll put something together. But in the immediate future, I'm just doing Cam. But you never know what can happen down the line. I called Zeke's phone and I guess Zeke gave Jim the phone to pick up. We just talked, asked about each other's family. He said he's on a promo tour. He'd be back soon. That was that."


Well there you have it. Cam is working on his up-coming LP: Crime Pays, and he is trying to secure a spot on the infamous Hot 97 Summer Jam stage this year. He is open to working with the Diplomats again-- so that's progress. Harlem? You might wanna stand up right about now.... Yep!

Word, America?



So, for some reason unbeknown to me-- "Madea Goes to Jail" is taking the country by storm. Since it's release two weekends ago, it's grossed over $65 million-- including $16 million just this week! It remains the #1 movie in America right now. I really am mystified at how much people eat up this coonery, smh. I respect and admire Tyler Perry a great deal. He IS the American dream. He went from a homeless man to a multi-million dollar media empire. You gotta love it. I have supported such films as, "Why Did I Get Married", and "The Family That Preys", but I can't bring myself to support the buffoonery that is the Madea series'. God bless him, but I just can't. It's all good though because 65 million Americans can.... And that's not even counting the bootlegs! LOL

WIPEOUT!



You know how people say that March "comes in like a lion, and goes out like a lamb"? Well God bless those people, because they ain't NEVAH LIED! Last night the northeast got his by a major blizzard that has contributed to 4 deaths, the complete crippling of our airports, and about 12 million in clean-up damages. WOW. We are expecting to get a foot of snow before the madness is over. Times Square was looking a bit of a mess this morning:



All schools in all 5 of our boroughs in NYC have been shut-down. I haven't seen anything this bad since the blizzard of 1996. Don't you know we're gonna appreciate the Spring like a mutha? Chuuuuuuch.

Chicago Crazy-Man Sent Obama Aids-Infected Letter.




We all know that truth is stranger than fiction... Right? Well just in case you weren't convinced, I think the following story of a mentally-distrubed Obama-stalker will make the case. Homeboy sent Mr. President some letter covered with his own HIV-infected blood a few weeks before inauguration. Check it out:


A Chicago MAN with a history of mental illness was arrested for sending President BARACK OBAMA a letter smeared with HIV-infected blood in the lead-up to the inauguration.

SAAD HUSSEIN, an Ethiopian refugee, sent a letter addressed to Barack Obama to the Illinois Department of Aging in December. The letter contained a two-page note, a Christmas card, some index cards and one admission ticket to Obama’s election-night celebration in Grant Park — all smeared with reddish and orangeish stains from what tests show to be HIV-infected blood.

Hussein, who says he is infected with HIV, told police he slashed his own fingers open and smeared the blood over the items. From the Cleveland Leader:

“After the envelope was opened, Hazmat teams were called in. The offices of the Illinois Department on Aging, as well as the Dept. of Revenue were locked down for about two hours. 300 staff members were thus stuck in their offices.”

Using his brother as an interpreter, Hussein told the FBI that he was an “admirer” of Obama. He also said that he was “seeking help from the government”, and that he was hoping to obtain tickets to the inauguration in Washington D.C. Yeesh. I know it was hard to get inauguration tickets, but I don’t think sending AIDS to the president-elect is ever a good idea. Hussein had also sent envelopes containing a white powder to Obama’s Chief of Staff, Rahm Emanuel.

The United States Postal Service says this is only the second time HIV-infected blood has been sent maliciously in the mail.


See? Now this is the kind of ish that makes me SMH eternally... Now and forever.

Jay-Z & Beyonce: ILLUMINATI???




For all of you out there who don't know-- the Illuminati is a super-group secret organization of the most powerful and intelligent people in the world. This exclusive group of power-players are said to be plotting world-domination through their various talents and wealth. It has often been said that this group is anti-Christ and satanic. Tupac claimed that he was forced into Illuminati shortly before he was murdered, and when I was browsing the web, I found this Destiny's Child site that has some damning evidence HERE. Check this ish out-- it's kinda scary.

Bey Covers Ebony...



Will you be coppin' dat? If not, here go the most interesting points:

When asked to describe herself as a wife:

“I don’t know how to talk about it because I don’t like to talk about it. But I have a great example of a great wife, and that’s my mother. And I have great friends around me that have been married, so I’m lucky to have really good examples. And a great husband.”

She says they are just like any other couple. She is learning to cook and he’s getting over his single-guy habits.

When asked what’s the one thing she does to get on his nerve:



“I’m a little messy. Oh, yeah. Whenever I’m out in public, I have to be put together. When I get home, I rebel against it and I don’t want to take care of anything. I drop it. I’m relaxed. I don’t have any shoes on. No makeup. My purse is in the kitchen. I think that is most difficult thing for him. He’s very, very organized. I’m extremely organized when I’m working, and I work so much that when I get home I don’t want to think about anything.”

As for what Jay-Z does that get on her nerves: She laughs, “I won’t say.



When asked about retiring by age 21:

“I’ve worked so hard on my craft, and I will never stop. I will never retire. I love it way too much.”

Well, there you have it! We are all doomed to an eternity of Beyonce... SAVE YOUR SOULS, While there's still TIIIIIIIME!
