The R. Kelly Trial Takes A Dramatic Turn
As everyone knows R. Kelly is on trial for his alleged involvement with an underage female.
The jury was selected and the trial is underway but R. Kelly's defense lawyer has come up with a last minute witness who can undermine the testimony of the prosecutions witness.
The unknown witness who was not on the prosecutions list was to scheduled to testify. But at the last moment the judge Vincent Gaughan adjourned the proceedings for the day.
Upon return to the court, the jury may have no choice but to acquit R. Kelly because there is a doubt as to whether the alleged incident every really happened. The defense witnesses creditability is in question.
Video and DVDs can be faked.

T.I. To Turn Misfortune Into Money
That's right ladies and gentleman rapper T.I. will be turning his jail time into a reality show.
T.I. will turn his community service into a reality show produced by Mtv. As you know T.I. was busted for trying to purchase automatic weapons and was placed on house arrest.
So, now we can watch as T.I. attempts to pay his debt to society by showing you what happens when a person breaks the law.
T.I. said that he is doing the show in hopes that people will learn a lesson easier than he had to.
I guess if you have to perform community service, its a good thing to get payed for it.

Serena Williams To Appear In Playboy
The Word on the street is that the statues Serena Williams will be in the August issue of Playboy.
In case you don't know who Serena Williams is. She is the tennis playing sister of Venus Williams. Both are accomplished sports professionals.
Serena has won many tennis titles and is a force to be reckoned with on the tennis circuit.
I don't think that she will appear naked but I do think that her photos will be tastefully done.
So, look for her in August because this issue might be worth purchasing.
You have just been wooed.

Memorial To The Fallen
Today is Memorial Day and a lot of people are enjoying the day at the beach or at cookouts.
But do not let us forget those who gave up their lives to ensure that we enjoy our freedom.
So to all those in the US armed forces past and present. I would like to thank you for your sacrifice in the name of democracy.
America may have its differences but in the end we all stand united and ready to defend against anyone who would attempt to deprive us our life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness.

Talib Kweli In Africa
I was surfing BET.COM and stopped to watch a Talib Kweli video called Hostile Gospel Pt.1(Deliver Us). The video was fire and shot in Lagos Nigeria.
It was easy to see what Kweli was trying to do. He chose to create his vision in Nigeria because he wanted to show the differences between the US and Africa.
Then he goes on to rap about the differences in the US between the majority and the minorities.
I especially like the line about white teens who want to be black and rap. Most of his lyrics are delivered while riding on the back of a scooter as the driver makes his way through Lagos.
It's interesting that Kweli went to Africa to address the ills of American Society. The images and lyrics are powerful.
Talib Kweli is the most socially focused rapper that I have heard in a long time and in my opinion one of the best in the game.

Mexican Donkey Released From Jail
In a town in Mexico called Tuxtla Gutierrez justice truly applies to all. A donkey who had been jailed for three days was released.
The donkey's name is Blacky and was jailed for biting and kicking two men near a ranch outside of the town.
Officials freed the donkey after its owner paid a fine of $36 and $115 hospital bill of the men, who suffered bites to the chest and a broken ankle. The owner must also pay $480 to each man for missed work days.
The victims said that the donkey bit Genaro Vasquez,63, in the chest on Sunday and then kicked 52-year old Andres Hernandez as he tried to assist the first victim only to have his ankle fractured.
According to police it took a half dozen men to control the enraged beast.
This is not the first time Chiapas police have put animals in jail. They arrested a bull in March for eating corn crops and destroying two wooden vending stands.
Not even dogs escape the police. In 2006 a dog was locked up for 12 days after biting someone. The dogs owner was fined $18.
The story while incredible to believe is true and was reported by the Associated Press.

The Return Of Toccara
I have noticed that a lot of the people who have appeared on reality shows are popping up everywhere. For, example the girls from past Flavor of Love shows are all over magazine covers. Some are even on the radio.
But my favorite girl is Toccara Jones from America's Next Top Model. She was the full figured contestant who in my opinion was and is still banging.
She will be gracing the cover of King Magazine with a new slimmer and toned look. Toccara will also be on the weight loss reality show " The Biggest Loser."
Toccara's new look makes her the sexest and most voluptious black woman on the planet. So stay tuned.

Cannon Out All Night
Recently Nick Cannon went with Diddy and Quincy Jones to the grand openning of the new MGM Grand Hotel and Casino at Foxwoods.
It was about 1am in the morning when Cannon got a page from his beautiful new bride Mariah Carrey who told him to bring his ass home.
So, naturally he said goodby to his friends and headed home. Supposedly he was not very happy that he had to go home.
Now, lets get back to reality. Nick you got the badest chick in the game and your leaving her alone already to hang out with the boys. That is not a good thing to be doing this early in the marriage.
If it were me I would have been home handling my business. Enough said.

Neverland In Foreclosure
Michael Jackson continues to be lucky. The Superstar avoided foreclosure on the Neverland Ranch on Sunday when a new bank took over the mortgage on the property.
The property is 2,700-acres complete with an amusement park. The property was scheduled for auction this week after Jackson defaulted on payments.
A real estate investment firm bought the 5 million mortgage and is negotiating
a new plan.
Soccer star David Beckham is one of the celebs reportedly thinking of buying the ranch.
I'm sure Michael will be alright. He doesn't need the ranch because he owns property in Dubai.

Charles Barkley Owes $400,000 To Casino
It appears that ex-basketball star Charles Barkley is in a trouble with the a gambling establishment in Las Vegas Nevada.
The Wynn Hotel and Casino stated that Barkley owes them $400,000 in gambling debt because they extended him credit and he failed to repay.
After failing to repay the Nevada's prosecutors office said that they may charge Barkley criminally for not repaying the debt.
The markers or loans that were extended are like checks and Barkley would
face 10 years for each offense if the case ended up in court.
Fortunately Barkley is not going to let it go that far and make good on the markers. Barkley said all they had to do was call him and he would have taken care of it.
Barkley stated that he knows he has a gambling problem but its OK because he can afford it.
A little advice to Charles from me. That's how it always begins and after a few bad months at the casino everything that belong to you will now belong them.

Bob Marley Left Earth 27 Years Ago
It is hard to make a list of singers with a political conscience without Bob Marley being number one on the list.
Bob Marley grew up poor in Jamaica and became one of the most famous singers in the world. Of course he embraced the religion of Rastafari but it did not take away from his message.
In Zimbabwe young men remember Bob Marley and are having a smoke in his honor.
Marley left more than just a musical legacy he also passed his musical talent on to his many children such as Ziggy Marley who still creates music today.
They say time is simply a method of measuring how things have changed. I can honestly say that Bob Marley not only pleased his fans ears but also spoke to their souls.
Bob Marley gave voices to the poor around the world.

Remy Gets Eight Year Sentence
The sentence is in for Remy Ma. Now lets see she was facing 25 years but God was merciful and she received 8 years.
I am thrilled but the story did not end with the sentence. Papoose who wants to marry her was stopped from doing so because he tried to give her what prison officials thought was a universal handcuff key.
Papoose was also banned from Rikers Island and will have to wait until she gets to Bedford Hills Maximum Security Correctional Facility in Westchester County, New York to get married. But the good thing about New York, she can get conjugal visits.
Keep your head up Ma.
It takes our nation to hold us back.

Texas Prom Teen Arrested For Skimpy Dress
The prom is supposed to be a special occasion but unfortunately for Marche Taylor Texas school officials felt that her dress was to revealing and violated the schools dress code.
She was told that she was not allowed into the prom which was being held at the Marriott hotel.
After being told she could not enter by a school official, they began to argue back and forth. But, Taylor was still refused.
Taylor then offered to cover up but the answer from the school official was still no.
So, Taylor asked the next logical question. Could she have her money back? That's when everything went supernova and the cops placed the bracelets on her.
During an interview by KHOU-TV in Houston, Marche Taylor said that the official said, you are not wearing underwear. The young lady said she was but it was really none of the any body's business.
She should have been allowed to cover up or go home and change in something more acceptable. The school could have handled the situation more diplomatically.

R. Kelly Trial Begins In Chicago
Jury selection has begun in Chicago for the R. Kelly trial. Kelly is charged with child pornography. The defense has been delaying the trial because they feel that the amount of publicity that the case has gotten over the last six years makes it impossible to locate a jury that would be completely impartial.
Everyone in Chicago knows R. Kelly from either his music or the charges against him. And because of this it will be very difficult to pick a jury. The main factors in this case are the issues of racial prejudice and underage sexual relations. Both subjects fit for a film.
The experts say that a smart jury is Kelly's best bet. His lawyers say that they want people who understand Photo shop and how you edit tapes. People who don't just blindly trust the FBI.
Either way it is going to be an uphill battle for R. Kelly after the jury is selected because Television and the Movies has conditioned us to believe what we see on the screen.

Iron Man The Movie A Blast From The Past
You know what I like about the net? The ability to watch the trailers of any movie you want.
I chose Iron Man Because its been receiving good reviews. Most of us remember Iron Man from the comic book or the television.
Robert Downy Jr. has reprised the role of Tony Stark/Iron Man. But for those who have not seen or heard of Iron Man, I will now educate you on the origin of the Super Hero.
Iron Man was created by super hero creator Stan Lee in March of 1963. When first created Iron Man was a member of Superhero's called the Avengers but he has also appeared by himself.
Now to the 2008 movie. Robert Downy Jr. plays Tony Stark an arms building and dealing billionaire who is kidnapped and forced to build a devastating weapon.
Instead he builds a high tech suit of armor and escapes captivity. Then he uncovers a fiendish global plot and vows to protect the world.
The cast includes many well known names such; as Terrence Howard who plays Stark's best friend, Gwyneth Paltrow, Jeff Bridges who plays Stark's right hand, Samuel L. Jackson, and Hillary Swank.
Forbes has actually named Tony Stark as the richest comic book billionaire in the world. Iron Man is definitely worth a trip to the movies.

Russell And Kimora Battle Over Kids
First of all I was troubled to hear that Kimora and Russell had separated. Then I hear that there had been a divorce filing citing the reason as being "irreconcilable differences."
This brings us up to the present in which Russell is with a young model named Porschella and kimora is with an actor named Dijimon.
Kimora and her boyfriend Dijimon are expecting their first child. They have both moved on.
But, the only thing left to settle is their childrens status. Kimora wants full custody of the two girls Ming 8 and Aoki 5. Russell disagrees and wants to have joint custody of them.
It appears that Russell refuses to be a part time father and watch another man raise his children.

Chris Brown's Security Assualts Newpaper Photographer
There have been rumors that Chris Brown and Rihanna are involved with each other. But it has not been confirmed.
This brings us to today's story of a Florida newspaper photographer Luis Santana who claims that Brown's body guards chased him, beat him up and threw him to the ground.
The incident began when Santana attempted to take pictures of Brown and Rihanna at a private party in St. Petersburg Florida.
So, after beating him up, for taking the pictures they also took his $3,000 camera. The police are investigating and Chris Brown has made no comments about the incident.
This makes me wonder what Chris Brown and Rihanna are up to.

Jay-z To Create Trust Fund For Bell Kids
The buzz on the news wires is that Rapper Jay-Z is going to put his money where his mouth is.
As you know the New York City police officers were acquitted of all charges in the shooting death of Sean Bell.
Some people are writing letters and others are preparing to protest with Rev. Al Sharpton. Some have even vowed to go to jail to get the message across.
Jay-Z has seen the bigger picture which is after everything is over Sean Bell's children will still need to be provided for. He has chosen to help by creating a trust fund for the surviving children.
I don't think that there is much more to be said except good looking out Jay.

50 Cents Chain Snatched In Africa
I guess you could say that it's bad all over the world. 50 Cent who was performing in Africa had a person described as an Angolan thug run up on stage and snatch his chain.
But 50 being who he is proceeds to chase the man around until he recovered
his chain. I would guess that the thug didn't know that 50 was not a wankster or that he had been shot nine times and survived.
I also heard that this is not the first time he had his chain snatched in Africa. This being the case a lot of people are asking why dose 50 wear real chains on stage?He should wear costume jewelry on stage.
I disagree. A rapper once said to bad his jewelry was costume he got killed for nothing at all.
If 50 is going to get merked for his jewelry, naturally he going to keep it gangster.

Texas Man Takes $360 Billion Check To The Bank
Today lets talk about a dumb ass move made by a Fort Worth Texas man. Apparently a man named Charles Ray Fuller,21 attempted to cash a stolen check for billions of dollars.
Mr. Fuller handed the check to a teller at the Chase Bank who did a double take after noticing the check was for $360 Billion. The check was made out to "Fulla Comp and Entertainment'" which was a record company Fuller wanted to start, according to a NBC 5 news report.
The police said that Fuller stole the check form Paula Prettyman, the mother of the thief's girlfriend, Andrea Greer.
Everyone is shocked by the incident and believed that Fuller has lost his mind. Including his grandmother.
Fuller was arrested with a gun and marijuana in his possession. He told NBC 5 News that he denies trying to cash the $360 Billion dollar check. But he did have the Marijuana and the gun.

Lil' Kim Vs. The Repo Man
I woke up early this morning and 105.1 was talking about people in the news. Lil' Kim's name came up. It appears that the CW 11 Network took a film crew and the repo man to Lil' Kim's home in a an attempt to repossess her Bentley.
Kim did not know that she was being filmed as the repo man gave her a lecture for not making her car payment. Lil' Kim said that my accountant handles the finances.
Now this is where the story gets a little funky. Because, the Bentley in question was given to Lil' Kim by music producer Scott Storch as a gift. Storch has stopped making payments because he is having financial difficulties.
Then I went to BET.com and checked on what their sources came up with. Some one name VBOY who appeared to know the real story said that the Bentley was not repossessed because Kim's accountant issued the company funds.
