Ummm, the “real” Lil Kim? WTF??? Who are you Kimberly Jones?? Now, I’m gonna keep it real. Even though you may not want to admit it, there are A Lot of us out there, that might have a little work done if we could afford it. But after this recent drama with Tameka Foster and of course Kanye’s Mom, many of us came to our senses and said-never mind. Then there’s Lil Miss Lil Kim. Oh Kim, Kimmy, Kimberly. Your face doesn’t move anymore. Why do you go this far? Why? Let me say this– I’m all for changing one’s image. A star who reinvents themself ah-la Janet, and Madonna will indeed have longevity in the entertainment biz. But Kimmy- you are a completly different person. Circa 1996 when Hardcore dropped, every guy I knew was checking for you. Your CD poster was everywhere. And WTF with this new Paris Hilton accent– again, no problem if you want to sound more proper– but come on now– really?? I’m done. Girl bye.

Usher says he’s sorry
Yo! Raps reports Usher is sorry for his comments he made about Chris Brown which appeared in a video by Jermaine Dupri’s video series Living The Life.
“The comments made during a recent recording session amongst friends were taken out of context and blown out of proportion,” the statement reads. “I apologize on behalf of myself and my friends if anyone was offended. The intentions were not to pass judgment and we meant no harm. I respect and wish the best for all parties involved.” Singer/songwriter Johnta Austin also appears on the video. And they also went out of their way to joke Christina Milian’s new blonde do-harsh.

Trying to move on
Rihanna was photograped getting some R&R on a beach down in Mexico this week. I swear she could be hiding out in a himilayan hut, and a paparazzi will still find her. Meanwhile, Rihanna’s trip south of the border makes some wonder if she’s actually going to press charges against Chris Brown. Though she’s expected in court on March 5th for a hearing in the case, prosecutors might have a hard time pursuing a case without her. A spokesman for the Los Angeles District Attorney concedes that the hearing “may not happen,” unless prosecutors can gather more evidence against Brown. “ A bounty on 50 Cent’s head

Awww, this is just plain tacky
Bookmaker.com is now taking bets on whether Chris Brown actually does jail time for his alleged assault on Rihanna. So far the odds increased when TMZ released the pictures of a beat down Rihanna. I don’t he’ll be serving any jail time, Rihanna won’t be pressing charges– just watch. By the way, Chris is now taking anger management classes.

Hungry for a Burger? New York rapper N.O.R.E. was arrested in Miami Beach on Sunday afternoon after punching a man in the face and throwing a cup of yellow liquid on him, according to police. Victor Santiago, who also goes by the stage names N.O.R.E. or Noreaga, was arrested by Miami Beach police after he got into a fight with a man at Fatburger, a South Beach restaurant at 947 Washington Ave., police said. According to the police report, Santiago and three other men walked into Fatburger yelling. On their way in, the rapper ripped one of the restaurant’s flower bouquets out of its place. Santiago then offered a man a cup of yellow liquid — when the man refused, Santiago threw it at him. ”Do you know who I am?” Santiago yelled, according to the report. The rapper then punched the man in the face three times, police said. When Miami Beach police officers arrived, they saw the four men running out of the restaurant — all were put in custody.
Police charged Santiago with simple battery and disorderly conduct in a licensed establishment. Miami Herald

Lights, camera, action.It’s all about the Oscars this morning. And last night the big winner was the little movie that could– Slumdog Millionaire.
This movie is indeed amazing and deserves all the props. The film was awarded the Best Picture trophy. An amazing moment for the huge and vastly unknown cast. It was great to see the all the actors who played Jamal, Latika, and Samir. There was some controversy about the children who are in the film, it was rumored that the smaller children were not paid for their work. The films producers say the children who actually live in the Mumbai slums were given trust funds.
A very solemn moment when Heath Ledger was awarded the Best supporting actor award for his role as the Joker in the Dark Knight.
The trophy was accepted by Heath’s parents and sister.
Tariji P. Henson didn’t win an Oscar, but she did kill the red carpet in a tiered Ivory Roberto Cavalli Gown…
I actually liked Viola Davis in her Soild Gold Barbie gown. Just kidding, her gown is by Reem Acra. And I really do like.
Beyonce performed a Broadway medley with the ceremony’s host Hugh Jackman, great performance—her dress however was another story—she wore a Black and Gold gown by her House of Dereon fashion line. Not-loving-it.
Halle also wore Black and Gold… Her beaded Marchesa gown was stunning.
Alicia Keys wore a pretty lavendar Armani Chaffon Gown—but wtf’s up with the wig??
Jennifer Aniston wore a lovely cream beaded Valentino gown…
Jenn’s nemisis Angelina Jolie sported a black Elie Saab Coutre gown, and some major emerald earrings. Loved Natalie Portman in her Pink Rodart gown. This may be my fav… And I think I could fit it–soooo Nat– hit a siter up with the hand-me-downs.
Queen Latifah wore a custom Chakra gown that was made for her in Paris

Good news
Tameka Raymond is out of the hospital in Brazil. Usher’s wife was sent home Monday night. Tameka suffered cardiac arrest while being put under before having what the doctor’s rep says would have been a “simple liposuction.” The doctor’s office says Raymond was revived in less than a minute with heart massage and was put in an induced coma before being admitted to the ICU. Now I’m hearing that Usher may not have known that Tameka was even having the procedure done in the first place.
Blast from the past
Look at who could be home soon. After being locked up for the past 8 years, Shyne could be released on parole by the spring or summer at the latest. Will Diddy throw him a welcome home party?
Close call
Lucky fish. Maybe Tracy Morgan’s fish smoke too. He says a fire in his apartment started inside of his fish’s aquarium. Morgan says a bad
light in the fish tank apparently sparked the fire in his Manhattan
apartment. No one was hurt, not even the fish.
How much Nyquil does one need? Okay Solange, OD’ing on Nyquil– not a good look.
A statement
Well, if you’ve been waiting to hear what Chris has to say in reguards to the situation with Rihanna—here it goes. And sorry it’s not a denial.
“Words cannot begin to express how sorry and saddened I am over what transpired. I am seeking the counseling of my pastor, my mother and other loved ones and I am committed, with God’s help, to emerging a better person. Much of what has been speculated or reported on blogs and/or reported in the media is wrong. While I would like to be able to talk about this more, until the legal issues are resolved, this is all I can say except that I have not written any messages or made any posts to Facebook, on blogs or any place else. Those posts or writing under my name are frauds.”
Tonight, M-T-V airs Chris Brown and Rihanna: A Love in Trouble at 6:00. According to the network, the 30-minute special will feature “journalists and industry professionals — as well as an in-studio audience of young fans — to provide insight and commentary about what the incident means for both artists’ careers and lives, and society in general.”
Congrats
M.I.A. gave birth to a baby boy last week. The Grammy-winning artist, who was set to pop during her performance at the 51st annual awards last Sunday, reveals she actually went into labor after the show. Lil M.I.A. was born on Wednesday.
A sexually explicit text message may have been the spark that ignited the altercation between Chris and Rihanna… New reports say Chris got a text message from a woman about hooking up with while he was driving with Rihanna. That’s when Rihanna reportedly slapped Chris, he pulled over, she grabbed the keys, tossed them out of the window, and the violence got worse. Meanwhile, I now hear that Chris is in Las Vegas staying at the Hard Rock Hotel.
Could the LAPD charge Chris with attempted murder??
Still recovering
A doctor from L.A. has flown to Brazil to oversee the medical treatment of Tameka Raymond. She is still hospitalizatized for complications from plastic surgery last week.

So far no comment from Usher about this situation
Performance on lay-a-way

It’s not over

Cool points lost
An embarrassing moment for Fabo. He was having dinner with some friends in NYC recently- poppin’ bottles and what not, when his credit card was declined—not once but five times when it was time to pay up the tab. That’s when Fabulous had one of his boys head to the car to get cash for the bill—then he got into a fight with the outside bouncer. The homey then reportedly tripped and fell, hitting his head on the concrete and started bleeding. The manager called an ambulance. But as soon as the entourage member saw the police, who came along with EMTs, “he began running away, blood oozing down his face.” No word on how or if the bill ever got paid.
