Too Real for TV

I love a good reality show and VH1's Mob Wives is one of my favorites. Because along with most Americans, I've always been fascinated by the mob and gangsta movies. But today Renee Graziano was rushed to the hospital after news broke that her father Anthony Graziano and several others from the Bonanno Crime Family were arrested in an early morning raid. Renee had a panic attack and was having trouble breathing. I don't blame her since it is rumored that her ex-husband (Hector Pagan or "Junior" as he is called on the show) is the DEA's rat that got her father arrested! Poor Renee, things will get better girl. This is truly a sad situation. Talk about BETRAYAL...Smh.

Coupledom

TYGA TYGA AND BLAC CHYNA



Yes Young Money's own Tyga is dating Miami's MVS (Most Valuable Stripper)! Chyna (who works at the "world-famous" King of Diamonds Strip Club in Miami, FL) has been spotted out all over with her boo. Most recently at the Heat v. Clippers game on Tuesday. Congratulations to them! Hate to admit it but they do make a cute couple. Check out Chyna in Tyga's "Rack City" video, she is his leading "lady" (and i use that word very loosely). Guess the stripper trend isn't gonna see an end this year!



Thanks alot to Amber Rose, Lastarya Tucker and all the other stripper chicks for making all the College girls aspiring to snag a baller - single and lonely. SMH

Haiti 2 Years Later

Remember.....



On January 12, 2010 the small island was hit with a 7.0 magnitude earthquake that killed approximately 300,000 people and more were injured. It is also reported that 52 aftershocks were felt in the 2 weeks afterwards.The Haitian government estimates over 280,000 buildings (both residential and commercial) were damaged. A million people were left homeless and countless "tent cities" where erected to house these displaced people. Now 2 years later the tents are still there, even though about half of the occupants have moved out and the rebuilding is moving at a snails pace. And Haiti has not seem much of the money pledged by people all over the world due to the country's corrupt government. I say all this to say - Please Don't Forget Haiti! They still need help. I can only imagine what these people have gone through in the last two years.

January Hottie!!

NORRIS COLE
Miami Heat Guard


 


Anyone who is a NBA fan or just a Heat fan has seen this rookie's skills. He brings a lot of energy and confidence to the team with his game. Just by his swag alone I should have known that he is a Libra! Yes ladies he was born on October 13 in 1988. He is 6 foot 2 inches and 170 lbs., which you can't tell when you see him on the tube. He looks so young and small compared to all the seasoned players on the court. He inked a 2 year 2.21 million dollar deal with the Heat, I think its safe to say - It was money well spent! The 23 year old comes from Cleveland State where he got a degree in Health Sciences. Not our typical hottie but he is an instant fan favorite whose personality on the court definately says he is of STAR quality and is destined for greatness! All eyes are on the rookie, I see 2012 is going to be a big year for Norris.

Say It Aint So!!!

      

Okay guys unless you have been under a rock, you have heard the news that Hip Hop rapper/mogul Shawn Carter aka Jay-Z and his Pop-star wife Beyonce Knowles had their first child, Blue Ivy Carter this past Saturday. Congratulations to them! Im sure lil Blue is a cutey pa-tootie.

Today Jay-Z released a new single called "Glory" commemorating the birth of his baby girl saying "Last time the miscarriage was so tragic/We was afraid you'd disappear/But nah baby you magic." and "The most amazing feeling I feel, words can’t describe what I’m feeling for real / Baby, I paint the sky blue, my greatest creation was you." But the sweetest thing about the song is the audio of baby blue crying just minutes after coming into the world. (Click below to hear the song)



*SideNote*

From these two lines I got 2 things: one Beyonce seems so much more normal and human-tragedy does not discriminate, rich or poor it comes to us all and two if the little boy rumored to be Jay-z's son is really his child - this song must be like a dagger in his heart. I'm happy for Jay and Bey but sooooo sad for little man! (BTW that boy looks like Jay...I'm Just Saying!)

How Sexy are your Socks?

Lots of celebs have been pictured wearing socks with heels. How do you feel about this new fashion trend? Would you rock this style?
Personally I think its tacky. But I've seen many a celeb who are confident enough to make it look good!
Check out the pictures below for ideas on how to rock this style!





At the very least, your toes will be warm!

This Week in Celebrity Gossip




Happy New Year!!!
Okay ladies and gents, here is a review of what happened this week in Celebrity News!

Erica Mena, video chick/industry jumpoff is outted as being just what she accused Kimbella (Love & Hip Hop/video chick/J. Santana's baby momma) of doing. Apparently she used to be "friendly" with Havoc (from Mobb Deep) and encountered Prodigy in a club and let him "finger-dance" in her lap! *Use your imagination* This girl is a piece of work! I heard she beats up her baby daddy. Really guys? This is what you want? I will never understand....


Dollicia and Drake on the rocks! Yes....already!!! I'm not surprised.



Lebron James finally proposed to long time girlfriend and baby momma Savannah on New Year's Eve and she was spotted at the Heat game rocking her HUGE rock! Congratulations to them. Always thought she was a beautiful, classy lady. Maybe 2012 will be the start of a new trend - Marrying instead of "shacking  up"! I'm all for that.



**RumorMill - Beyonce is still pregnant! (Who cares? Apparently you guys do! LOL) Jay-Z spotted out of state at a college basketball game. Even though he is not the best dad to his current son - I doubt he would leave his wifey all alone after just giving birth. It is reported that he flew back to NY right after the game to be with Bey.



Basketball Wive (I use that term loosely), Laura Govan pictures surfaced showing her and on again off again baby daddy/boyfriend Gilbert Arenas partying for NYE. But the noteworthy thing is not that the two were out but that Laura looks like she FINALLY lost that baby weight!



Cynthia Bailey (Atlanta Housewife) covers Denim Magazine and may I add - chick looks stunning! A far cry better than on the show.



Black Mafia Family wives get their own reality show??? Spare me please! Sidenote: Wonder how Big Meech feels about this?!?!



Angela and Vanessa Simmons owe $450K in back taxes? Who is managing these girls' finances? It seems that when people become rich they forget that Uncle Sam has to get his cut! C'mon ladies please do better! SMH

Amber Rose finally confirms rumors that her and Kanye West broke up because of Kim Kardashian! Yes Kim K. cheated on then boyfriend, Reggie Bush with Kanye!Two years later Amber decides to let us know what everyone already guessed. But thanks Amber, I'm sure Kim's lawyer will be contacting you shortly! LOL These people are pure comedy.

In other Basketball Wives L.A. news, Imani Showalter has a new body. Guess while the rest of America was stuffing their faces with all that delicious Holiday food, Ms. Imani was working it out in the gym! She looks great. But I thought she was much classier than this. Posting pictures on Twitter now Imani? *tisk tisk*




Welcome to 2012 ya'll may all your hard work payoff this year. After all, not everyone can be a celebrity!
