M.I.A. Says Baby Name Not Ickitt

Contrary to media and tabloid belief, ny media reports claiming that she'd named her son Ickitt, M.I.A. took to her MySpace page Friday (March 6) to say it ain't so.

In an all-caps post titled "Baby name!," she wrote:

"My baby is not called Ickitt, Pickit or Lickit thank you very much to all the Hollywood press. He's a baby, he don't need press! I didn't release the baby name because I didn't think it was news!!!! But I will be back with something newsworthy soon, till then go pick on Apple, Satchel and Moon Unit."

"Lots of love stickit!!"

M.I.A. was referring to the long list of unusual celebrity baby names in recent years (although Moon Unit is the name of the late Frank Zappa's daughter, now 41). The boy is M.I.A.'s first child; the father is musician Benjamin Bronfman, who has also gone by the name Benjamin Brewer.

New York's Daily News contacted several South Asian writers and scholars for illumination on the significance of the name "Ickitt," to little avail. K.T. Rajasingham, editor of the online publication the Asian Tribune, told the paper it is not a Tamil name. A New York member of the South Asian Journalists Association said that in classical Tamil, the word "Ickattu" means "tough" or "inextricable," but he had no translation for "Ickitt."

Neha Kumar, an Indian student at the University of Michigan Center for South Asian studies, told the paper the word "ickitt" functions as a command that means "to keep." But another Tamil speaker said he'd never heard the word, adding "I'd guess she just made up a name she liked."

M.I.A.'s given name is Mathangi Arulpragasam. The singer's pregnancy was the source of much speculation before the Grammys, as the day of the show was her due date. However, she performed "Swagga Like Us" with Jay-Z, Lil Wayne, T.I. and Kanye West without incident. The singer earned an Oscar nod for her work on "Slumdog Millionaire."

Gorilla Zoe In Hot Water With Texas Parents

Atlanta’s Gorilla Zoe has landed in hot water with parents of a Dallas middle school, due to a controversial poster featuring the rapper.

Gorilla Zoe appeared at Pearl C. Anderson Junior High School on Friday (March 6), where he delivered a positive message to the school’s 10 and 11-year-old students.

After his motivational speech to students, posters were handed out featuring Gorilla Zoe surrounded by a stack of money, while smoking a cigar, sipping a drink and brandishing a gun.

A number of parents expressed outrage at the posters their children were sent home with and questioned the message Gorilla Zoe was trying to send. My question is why the hell would you take these kind of posters to middle school children? What the hell were you thinking Zoe?

Gorilla Zoe is currently preparing to release his sophomore album Don’t Feed The Animals, which has already produced the hit single “Lost” and is due in stores March 17th.

Talib Kweli Helps Chicago Schools

As the son of two educators and an advocate for positivity in his music, Talib Kweli [click to read] is using his voice to help create social change. He is all set to perform two back-to-back Dare 2 Dream charity events at the House of Blues in Chicago to help promote reading and literacy among Chicago's youth.

The non-profit organization, Working in the Schools (WITS) will use benefits from the event to provide students with one-on-one tutoring and mentoring programs. As one of the worst public school systems in the United States, Chicago Public School System (CPS) graduates only fifty percent of its high school freshmen. Of those who do graduate, only six percent finish college, and as little as two percent of minority students graduate from college. These statistics are not surprising in a system where eighty-five percent of students live under the poverty line.

The Dare 2 Dream events will go towards positively impacting the lives of all 400,000 CPS students.Jeff Sodikoff, President of host Platform One Entertainment said, “I'm extremely proud and honored to partner with the incredible Talib Kweli to help foster major awareness and raise important funding for Working In The Schools all while continuing our pursuit to harness the power of music and entertainment to benefit important causes.”

The event is scheduled for May 2, 2009 in Chicago.

Tocarra Takes It Off For King

Aaaaaaalright then! Tocarra is makin me mad! Or would that be jealousy rearing it's pointy little head? Possibly the latter. Ms. Tocarra Jones has got herself another magazine spread. This time in the chickfamous eye candy mag King. Tocarra has given a whole new meaning to the term plus-sized. Heck, I don't even know if you could consider her plus sized anymore. She's totally given us girls with more "comfort" more aspirations in the realm of loving your body for what it is. In the spread, Tocarra bares her soul... and her bodacious body. Check out what the former Top Model contestant has to say:

We remember an episode of ANTM where you were trying to squeeze your twins into a cocktail dress. How big are they?

*I’m a G.

Good grief, woman! You went up from a DDD?

*Well, I never knew my real bra size. Growing up I was always top heavy and my family was never able to buy me my real size ’cause they’re more expensive. Six months ago, I was in Columbus, Ohio, in Nordstrom’s and this lady suggested I try a G. I’m a big girl.

The Gs get a lot of the attention, but you’ve got a little bubble too.

*People been talkin’ about my booty now. That’s a new experience for me.

My boys would call you a hat trick—three goals: face, booty and breasts.

*Why I gotta be a trick?

No, we mean, “hat trick.” It’s like this hockey…forget it. How about we call you a triple threat?

*That’s much better. All my friends have nice butts. When we take pictures, my friend Liris [Crosse] is the bottom and I’m the top. I’ve been neglecting the booty

The bag has silver toned hardware, one padded shoulder strap with a logo embossed turnlock fastening, panel detailing, a zip across the top to fasten, a small zipped pocket on the inside, an open pouch pocket and is fully lined.

Chris Rock and Martin Lawrence Together In New Movie

Tracy Morgan and Martin Lawrence are joining Chris Rock in Screen Gems and Sidney Kimmel Entertainment's remake of "Death at a Funeral" according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Joining Lawrence and Rock will be Loretta Devine, Ron Glass, Danny Glover, Regina Hall, Zoe Saldana, James Marsden and Columbus Short.

The storyline goes like this: a comedy in which a funeral ceremony turns into a debacle of misplaced cadavers and family secrets. When things can't get any worse, a man arrives saying he's the dead man's gay lover and threatens blackmail.

I'm not too fond of that synopsis. It sounds like a spin-off to that stupid movie Kindom Come...uggghhh!!!

D.L. Hughley Ends CNN Show

It's about damn time!!! Don't get me wrong; I love to see a black man advance is career as long as it's legit, but when it results in damn near your comedic demise. D.L. Hughley had his moment to do something great, but instead turned the show into a menstrual show with preposterous racial undertones. Anyways...

On the heels of making national headlines for his interview with newly minted Republican National Committee Chairman,Michael Steele, D.L. Hughley has decided (we know CNN pulled the plug on this joint) to end his own CNN series, 'D.L. Hughley Breaks the News.'

In a statement released by CNN, the network announced that the 'King of Comedy' will transition to a different position within the company.

"D.L. approached CNN about being permanently based in Los Angeles , where his family lives. To accommodate this, we agreed upon a new role where he will be a contributor for the network based in Los Angeles . We are eager to continue our relationship with D.L., who is a tremendous talent and a valued colleague,"

the statement read.

The 45-year-old Hughley, who is also a weekly contributor to the nationally syndicated 'Tom Joyner Morning Show,' has not released a statement of his own.

Tupac Wrote A Script... It's Going To The Big Screen Too.

It has been confirmed that a screenplay written by late rapper Tupac Shakur titled Live 2 Tell will be turned into a motion picture.

The movie is about a young powerful drug lord who is trying to leave his life of drugs and crime behind.

Pac wrote the screenplay in 1995 while serving a prison sentence on sexual assault charges. It's being said that he originally wrote the script with himself being the main character.

Insomnia Productions and producers Preston Holmes (Hustle and Flow) and Afeni Shakur are planning on releasing the film sometime next year. Casting for the film is already underway, while filming could start as early as the end of this month. There have also been rumors circulating that a film about Tupac's own life is in the works, after the success of "Notorious" a film about late rapper Notorious B.I.G., in which Tupac is portrayed in the film.

Day 26 Album Cover

I've been watching their MTV reality show Making The Band lately and I really can't wait for the album because it sounds like they are definitely bringing the heat on this one... but I digress that the album cover doesn't send goose bumps down my spine. It's too bland... there's no umph to it! LOL!!! Whatever Diddy... this is your fault bro! Doesn't it look like they just set up a digital camera on a tripod and set the timer?

Sneak of Da Week~ Louis Vuitton High Top x Kanye West

From the genius and mythodical mind of rap star Kanye West... I present his latest venture in the fashion game; The Louis Vuitton High Top. The folks over at Black Rainbow have released images of the new Vuitton project that has been creating a quite a bit of a buzz here lately. The sneak is set to be released this summer in June You already know that if you want these, you're going to need to save your gazintas!

Since the last few weeks, you might have seen 4 differents colorways of 2 differents sneakers made by KANYE WEST for LOUIS VUITTON. After, red, black and white the DON LOW TOP should also comes in grey, and a "mlxed dark/light brown with a pink touch colorway". And, after the "Grey and FluoPink sole" the HI TOP sneaker should also comes in black and white. This collaboration between the french house and the american artist is really interesting and significant on the high-fashion market, and sneaker market. It means that sneaker culture and sneaker market (sportswear one) as we knew it are dead. The mass market is gonna totally absorb it. And it means also lots of things about the fact that LOUIS VUITTON wants to extend his consumer targets. LOUIS VUITTON want to have this new consumer : older with some money, and a new fashion culture.

Toni Braxton Look-A-Like Not Fooling Anyone

Talk about loyal fans. The fans of Toni Braxton can not be deceived. The Grammy winner was advertised to perform a concert in Paramaribo, Suriname, a city in northern South America; however the show promoter Angel Ventura from Events 4 Suriname apparently attempted to dupe concertgoers with a bogus Braxton imposter.

Ventura contracted an American singer named Trina Johnson to pretend to be Braxton onstage, but when attendees realized that the 'Un-break My Heart' singer was not the real deal during her second song, pandemonium ensued as patrons booed, threw objects at the stage and looted the bars at the Anthony Nesty Indoor Stadium.

Security had to rescue Johnson from the melee and she was whisked away in a waiting limousine. Additionally, Johnson appeared at a press conference for the concert days before and claimed to be Braxton's manager. (The 41-year-old singer's actual manager is her husband, former Mint Condition singer Keri Lewis.) Attendees were told that Braxton would not be appearing at the concert because she was tired from her airline flight.

To promote the show, organizers ran television advertisements with images of the real Braxton announcing she was coming to Paramaribo. Braxton, who appeared on last season's 'Dancing with the Stars,' released a statement saying her camp was looking into the matter.

"Many apologies to the fans for the mis-representation, we are working on finding out exactly what happened and what the whole situation was," the singer said.

Authorities have started a criminal investigation into the matter and hundreds of local patrons filed fraud complaints. While no arrests have been made in the matter, police did interview Johnson and since she was able to produce a contract stating that she would perform an "imitation act," she was not able to be held. The promoter Ventura, who is allegedly from the US Virgin Islands, disappeared following the concert and failed to pay local sponsors, organizations, show workers and artists who opened the show.

Since the promoters and their team where not South American residents, border authorities have been alerted and are on look-out for them. Impersonating someone else with the intent to filch something, whether it is money, a good or service from another individual, according to Article 386 of the Surinamese Criminal Code is a criminal offence with a maximum jail term of three years.

Brandon T. Jackson Lands Another Movie Role

The actor-comedian, known for his recent role opposite Ben Stiller and Robert Downey, Jr. in 'Tropic Thunder,' will co-star with Logan Lerman in the adventure-fantasy film directed by Chris Columbus.

The boy has just 10 days to find and return the stolen property to bring peace to the warring gods.

Jackson will play Percy's best friend, Grover, a satyr. Fox 2000 is looking to place a number of big-name thesps in the smaller roles of the gods. Shooting is scheduled to begin in April in Europe.

Jackson's other film credits include 'Roll Bounce' with Bow Wow and 'This Christmas' with Chris Brown and Idris Elba.

Nivea Goes Coo Koo For Lil Wayne

Jodeci Cancels Show Releases "Explanation" Why

Everybody, I don't care how old you are, should know who this group is. If you don't, where the hell have you been? Jodeci was a force to be reckoned with back in the early 90's. With hits like "Forever My Lady", "Come and Talk To Me, "Feenin" and "Love You For Life", Jodeci held it down during their day. But those days are loooooooong gone. Since their split back in 1998, both sets of brothers all went their separate ways. But here lately, the boys have been trying to kick the tires and light the fires back in to their careers.

Anyways, the boys were supposed to do a show in LA, and didn't show up. I'm praying that this letter below isn't from their publicist, because if it is, they need to fire them ASAP!!! The letter gives an explanation as to why the boys didn't show... sort of. Hell... if you can get past the typos and grammatical errors, you might be able to decipher what the person is trying to say.

"I'm a very close person in the jodeci camp and the fans need to no the reason why they didn't do the concert they had in LA tonight.This is the reason, two weeks ago jodeci had went to london and did 4 show for a undisclosed amount of money.The person who set those shows up was Cassandra Mills which jodeci didn't no at the time she had something to with those shows,they thought someone else who name I'll keep hush was setting up these show anyway they did all 4 shows and they kicked ass.But this where it gets crazy, they get back to the states and there money wasn't there the band and the body guards got paid but they didn't. They are still waiting for there money to date.Now this same lady Cassandra Mills set up this show in LA which Jodeci told her do not set up no more shows for them so to all promoters do not give Cassandra Mills any money concerning Jodeci.So Jodeci would like to say sorry to all the fans and the promoters for what happend.Thank You and much love Jodeci!!!"

Kelly Rowland Grants Luekemia Patients Wish

Kelly Rowland made it a very special birthday for Jasmina Anema, a Leukemia patient who turned 6 on Wednesday.

The former Destiny’s Child singer joined Jasmina and her best friend, Isabelle, at NYU Medical Center today to help her young fan celebrate. Jasmina is currently battling Leukemia and is in search of a bone marrow transplant.

“This young, beautiful little girl needs a match,” Kelly told ABC News. “When you meet her you just can’t help but fall in love.”

Prospective donors can learn how to help by visiting DKMSAmericas.org or OneForJasmina.com.

According to Billboard, Kelly’s next gig will find her focusing on style, not singing, as she joins Isaac Mizrahi and Fern Mallis for Bravo’s “The Fashion Show,” which will launch on the network later this year.

Tyrese's Ex Wife Wants More

Ummm, could somebody please fill me in on when this wedding went down, cuz I had no clue! Anyways, despite being married for just 10 months, Norma Gibson feels she still deserves some financial compensation from her soon-to-be ex-husband, singer-actor Tyrese.

The singer's estranged wife says as much in Friday's filed response to Tyrese's divorce declaration. Norma wrote, "The short length of the marriage, which Petitioner cites ad nauseam, is irrelevant--how much money Petitioner earned during the short marriage is the relevant issue. He earned roughly $800k during the ten months of marriage."

Norma also claims Tyrese has been absent in their daughter Shayla's life. "Persons in the entertainment industry always seem to have a fascinating ability to characterize their life choices as somehow different, more important and not a matter of choice, but a "requirement," entitling them to special rules and considerations."

The divorce documents also outline how unreasonable it would be for Norma to be expected to leave this marriage with no money. She says it's ludicrous for "a single mother with no family or friends, with effectively no funds whatsoever, to simply walk away from potentially hundreds of thousands of dollars simply because it is Petitioner's position she must do so."

Snoop Dogg Joins Nation of Islam

Rapper Snoop Dogg revealed, over the weekend, that he has joined the Nation of Islam, when he appeared at their annual Saviors' Day event on Sunday (March 1) in Chicago.

According to Rueters, the rapper said that he has joined the group because he was "doing what's right and representing what's right", adding that as a "leader of the hip-hop community" he would share what he learned with other artists.

During this weekend's event, the rapper took in a three-hour keynote speech from Nation of Islam leader Minister Louis Farrakhan, who spoke mostly of Barack Obama, but also criticized U.S. and local leaders for privatizing state and government businesses, and for U.S. attitudes toward war-torn Gaza.

"We are blessed today for the first time in the history of our sojourn in America to have a black man as the 44th president of the United States," Farrakhan said during his address. "And although he has only been in office a little over 30 days, he's moving at breakneck speed to accomplish what many would think is impossible. I have chosen a subject today: We must accept our responsibility to build our communities."

He also told those in attendance that they must be prepared to make sacrifices as Obama begins work on the faltering economy.

"Debt is another form of slavery and oppression," Farrakhan said. "It's gonna take more than a stimulus package to bring America from where she is. It would seem to me that we as intelligent-thinking black people should sit out now and have a well-thought-out plan to give to the mayors, to the governors, of how we can rebuild ... the wasted cities and stop the violence that's destroying our communities," he continued.

In addition to joining the movement, Snoop also donated $1,000. Rapper Doug E. Fresh attended, while T.I. appeared via recorded video in which he followers that education is the key to success

La La Promo Pics For Charm School

Former MTV veejay La La Vasquez is next up to appear in another crappy ass VH1 reality show. This time, she'll be the dean at it's infamous Charm School, along with Ricki Lake and radio Loveline host Stryker. This third season of Charm School will feature the girls from Real Chance of Love and the Rock of Love Bus. The panel will be showing the girls how to be ladies and philanthropist in their own right. When asked about the show, this is what La La had to say:

“Before I began this journey with the girls I was a little skeptic on how much they really wanted to make a change but after spending time with all these young ladies and getting to know each and every one of them, I really believe that this show has helped them all.”

I'm sure there are a few of you that actually follow these shows, and if you do, you'll remember that La La is the one that has done the reunion shows for Flavor of Love, I Love New York, For The Love of Money, and Real Chance of Love. The new season of Charm School will air sometime in the Summer of 09.

President Obama Enjoys An NBA Game Up Front

♥Oh Mr. President... How do I love thee... let me count the ways. &hearts; I so heart our President for stepping outside of the norm and just being a human being and not conforming to what is expected of him. What is the harm in him being able to relax and enjoy life all while still being able to tackle the issues with total and utter reliance.

Our President went to the Bulls vs Wizards game last night to see his beloved Chicago Bulls get their butts tapped by the home team in a 113-90 victory. The Prez sat courtside right on the floor with everyone else instead of sitting in the executive boxes like all other big shots that come to the games. Looks like he was having a good time too! I heart B.O.!
