No Destiny's Child Reunion

I've never been a Destiny's Child fan anyway so this news right here is a-ok with me! Recently former DC member Kelly Rowland dispelled all those rumors that she and her two former bandmates were back in the studio working on something new.

Kelly Rowland has denied that she and former Destiny's Child bandmates Beyoncé Knowles and Michelle Williams are working on another album. The 'Work' singer encouraged fans to ignore the reports and insisted that the trio, who split in 2005, are concentrating on their solo careers. Rowland told the New York Post's PopWrap blog: "There is no Destiny's Child album in the works. None of us have talked about an album or anything. And until we do, no-one else should worry about it. Simmer down now!" Rowland's ex bandmate Williams recently announced that she will be playing the role of Roxie Hart in London's West End production of Chicago. {Source}

I'm sure there are plenty of you out there that were so looking forward to another DC reunion and have just had your heartsbroken by all of this. I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news but hey... you got all those yummy Beyonce albums to rock to and those Kelly and Michelle.... wait... do those two even done anything on the solo tip that is jam worthy?

Brandy Says She Wasn't Dropped By Label

For the last few days, it has been reported by several internet sites that RnB singer Brandy had been dropped by her label and cut ties with her management team over at Roc Nation Management due to "creative differences". According to BV Buzz, the singer was let go by Epic Records because of poor sales of her “Human” CD, which was released back in December of 2008. Neither Epic nor Roc Nation have responded to the reports, however Brandy quickly took to her Twitter page to shoot down the rumors. Telling her fans:

“Don’t believe everything you read or see. The singer went on to say it “Looks bad when so called journalist spread false rumors without the facts”.

Brandy's "Human Nature" cd only sold 196,509 units to date according to SoundScan.

Raven Symone Clears Up Baby Rumors

The Internet has been all abuzz with whispers and reports of a possible pregnancy and let some folks tell it... even with a picture, the birth of said baby for That's So Raven star and former Cosby kid, Raven-Symoné.

We can finally lay all those rumors to rest. Reps from Raven's camp have sent out a statement saying:

"Raven-Symoné is not pregnant nor did she give birth,"

Raven was supposedly pregnant by Jussie Smollet, who is the older brother of actress Jurnee Smollet (Great Debaters, Eves Bayou). What is so crazy is that people have even gone as far as giving the baby the name of Lilianna. Sources on the internet were reporting that the birth and the pregnancy of the baby were low key and that's why Raven had been M.I.A. for a while.

Raven is set to take the stage Thursday (July 9) night at Six Flags Great Adventure in Jackson, N.J.

Lauren London Pregnancy Confirmed

For months now, we have all heard the rumors of actress Lauren London being pregnant but we never had any proof. Well, ladies and gentlemen, meet proof. Proof meet the folks of the world.

Lauren confirmed rumors of her pregnancy over the 4th of July weekend, when she popped up at Diddy's All-White Party in Beverly Hills showing off her baby bump. So it can no longer be a rumor, it is now officially a fact that the 20 something year old is el preggo! Now, it remains to be seen or heard with an official confirmation whether or not Lil Wayne is the father as the rumors also stated.

So we are still left wondering "Who is the daddy?"

Neither Lauren or Wayne have had their reps confirm anything on that, but a source told Bossip.com a few details regarding London's baby -- it's a boy.

"She's expecting a boy," the source told the site. "She's gained a little weight, but she's basically just a stomach. She has a really pretty glow too. I spotted her at the salon." It's still unknown actually how far along Lauren is. It's being speculated that she is about 6 or 7 months.

Only time will tell. Now we just need for Nivea to give us a confirmation on her rumored pregnancy too.

Let The Rumors Fly~ Is Angel Lola Luv A Lesbian?

One of the major video chicks in the game today, Angel Lola Luv is giving NO LOVE to the fellas out there. Reportedly Angel (real name- Lola Monroe) is a lesbian. There has been quite a bit of buzz in the industry about Angel's preference. Supposedly someone who knows Angel and has for quite some time, is letting the cat out of the bag.

The apple of Angels eye? Angels right hand chick named Logan who goes everywhere that she goes. Apparently they’ve known each other since grade school. And as you can tell, she and Angel have something else in common... Logan's ass sags low to the ground too just like Angels. Its widely rumored that Angel has had butt implants. I for one believe it. I've seen the before and after pics, so I ain't fooled.

Rumors Confirmed: Usher Officially Files For Divorce

Contrary to what I reported the other day, Usher actually did not file for divorce from his estranged wife Tameka Foster until today (June 12) in the Fulton County Superior Court in downtown Atlanta. Apparently Ush called around to several courts before deciding on Fulton County. I seached the net and found the actual petition to the court that Usher filed. Check it out below:

T-Boz Sets The Record Straight

I know that we've all been hearing the rumors of several celebs recently getting their homes foreclosed on and what-not, but TLC member T-Boz wants to set the record straight in regards to her situation.

Tionne Watkins aka T-Boz sat down with Essence mag to tell her side of the story. Instead of having a "representative" issue a statement for the singer, she decided to tell it for herself as to what her circumstances really are.

ESSENCE.COM: (Laughs.) That is so sweet! Well, there have been reports that a Georgia property of yours is going into foreclosure. Is that true?

T-BOZ: No, I'm not homeless. During my last marriage [to Mack 10], I had a bunch of things that were put in my name. If one of those properties is going into foreclosure then I don't know. Although I've been divorced for five years, there are still a lot of things I'm dealing with on getting straight in that regard. All I know is that the house I live in with my daughter is not. When you pull up my name, my real house doesn't show up because it's not in my real name, because I enjoy my privacy and I'm not trying to have people be able to find me that easily.

ESSENCE.COM: There were also reports of you losing a home in Houston?

T-BOZ: I've never owned a home in Houston. I closed a store in Houston, Chase's Closet, where I sold girls and boys clothing from infants to 12 years. The store is named after my daughter, Chase. For now, I only have the online store (chasescloset.com).

ESSENCE.COM: That explains the locale. Did you see the photos they had of you that were allegedly in front of your Houston home begging for donations?

T-BOZ: It's almost a waste of energy to give an explanation, but I'll just say that the [blogosphere] loves to make up things. I remember that photo and it was on Craiglist.com showing me holding up an autographed picture on the internet saying, "If you come to this address with cash we'll give you an autographed picture." The only thing that irritated me was that they said that the proceeds would be donated to St. Jude's [Children's Research Hospital]. I can take people talking about me all day, but don't use my name to make fun of sick children because that's beyond low and sick. I was a sick kid for a long time, in and out of the hospital most of my life battling my sickle cell, so I don't find anything funny about that kind of joking. Why would anyone target innocent sick children to make fun of? That's not cool at all. I mean someone actually took the time to make up all this stuff.

Cassie Not Becoming Next Danity Kane Member

Apparently just a few weeks after the Danity Kane split, a crazy rumor jumped off about another Bad Boy artist, namely Cassie. The rumor was basically about instead of Danity Kane searching for new members, they would just replace the old ones with Cassie. WOW!!! Aside from chicks looks, she has no talent whatsoever so how smart would that move have been?

Anyways, Cassie laid to rest those ridiculous rumors but seems to keep the ball rolling with the rumors of her and Diddy by never... ever... disspelling them. Check it out:

Date: Nov 10, 2008 2:08 PM
Subject: DK?
Body: What's up everybody??

A friend of mine forwarded me a link to a site with a made up quote about me joining Danity Kane. I want to make it clear to everyone that I am not joining Danity Kane! My second solo album is coming out in the Spring of '09 and I'm very excited about that. I don't know where the fake message came from, but I know for a fact that it didn't come from me.

Anyway, I can't wait to share more details about MY next solo project with you.

Thanks guys, talk soon!
Cassie

Let The Rumors Fly: Aubrey O'Day New G-Unit Chick?

I don't know how plausible this is, but I wouldn't doubt it. I'm hearing news that the newly ousted Bad-Girl Aubrey O'Day will take Olivia's non-existant place in the G-Unit fam. We all know how 50 Cent did Olivia. Buying her a house and then taking it back once he realized she was of no real value to the crew. But what better time for Ms. Skankarella O'day than now. She's out of a job, and looking for some new black boys to fondle. And we all know that 50 is good for promoting beef and who has more of a reason to have beef with anybody right now than Aubrey? Although, this would be a wise move on 50's part... unlike that Mase move. And we all know if anything goes down with this rumor, Diddy is damn sure he's going to turn a profit on it. And Aubrey has quite a fan base, and she can sing. So she actually has more things going for her than Olivia and Mase put together! Anyways, I'll keep ya posted!

Let The Rumors Fly... Rihanna and Kanye West Get It Poppin!

Here we go again folks. In the latest installment of "Let The Rumors Fly", we have Rihanna and Kanye West. Seems that tabloid Star mag has pinned the two music sensations together. Star mag claims that they got wind from a "source" that Barbadian cutie Rihanna was seen getting extra friendly with Kanye West after they performed with T.I. at the Key Club a few weeks back.

The source was quoted as saying this:

"Rihanna and Kanye hung out together after they performed their songs... Rihanna was sitting on Kanye's lap, singing along to the music. Before long, the two were full-on kissing each other." Adds the source, "People were shocked. After a while, Rihanna must have realized people were watching, because she had her security escort her back to the dressing room."

So is Rih Rih and Chris on the verge of calling it quits or was she and Kanye just showing some fond adoration for one another? Who knows. But I guess we'll see if we don't catch Chris and Rihanna in every magazine or blog over the next few weeks like we have in the past.

Let The Rumors Fly... Jamie Lynn Spears Pregnant AGAIN!

I am just too through with the Spears clan! You talk about trailor park. Baby please! This goes far beyond. Just four months after giving birth, 17-year-old Jamie Lynn Spears is supposedly pregnant again with baby numero dos!!!!

Back in June, Jamie Lynn gave birth to Maddie Briann, but now, a tabloid mag... I know I know... is claiming that she's pregnant again, even in the midst of the rumors about Maddie's father Casey Aldridge cheating on Jamie. The National Enquirer quotes a source who claims, "Jamie Lynn is about eight weeks pregnant, and she and her mom Lynne are hysterical... and not in a good way either.

"Neither of them knows what to do, but for now they're trying to keep the news from getting out. Jamie Lynn believed she couldn't get pregnant while she was breast-feeding. She'd expected to have her period by early September, but a home pregnancy test came back positive and Jamie Lynn cried her eyes out."Mama Lynne was pissed as hell when she found out.

The source adds, "Everyone has reminded Jamie Lynn how much trouble she had adjusting to motherhood with Maddie, and pointed out that having a second baby now would only be a recipe for disaster." Well duh! If she thought one was hard... then she'll slit her throat with two babies.

***UPDATE***

a rep for the 17-year-old confirmed to OK! magazine that "she is not pregnant."... FOR NOW!

Let The Rumors Fly~ Floyd Mayweather and Rocsi Dating???

Well well well... what have we here? Seems our girl Rocsi is donezo with the old Premiere of Turks and Caicos and has moved on up to something "prettier", and also reportedly taken! The streets are talking yet again about Rocsi, and again, she's infilitrating on someone else's territory.

Supposedly, Rocsi was seen this weekend at Vegas' TAO nightclub all over Floyd "Money" Mayweather in his VIP section. The couple was seen kissing and have a good ol' time together while everyone else just stood around and watched.

Now, from what I've heard several times over, Floyd is dating Chili from TLC. And if Rocsi thought she got away scott free with that Lisa Raye incident, she better think again when it comes to Chili. I just don't understand why she doesn't get her own damn man! What is with these ladies now a days? And they wonder why married men or men with girlfriends cheat. Because women like Rocsi allow them to!

Let The Rumors Fly... Soulja Boy... Tell'Em It Ain't So Son!!!

I don't even know what to say! Now, of course I know that we all have a twin out there somewhere, because Lord knows that I look like er'bodies damn auntie or Godsister, and I also know the magical powers of photoshop software. But this right here... *sigh* Wooooooooooooooooooooooooow! Look at the tats in the same spots, the dimples in the chin, those coochie pink lips! I praying that someone shows us the real picture or the real person stands up to this one. But I'm sure Soulja Boy will issue a Youtube statement real soon. He can't go out like this! LMAO!!! But ya'll remember a few years back when it was being said that Lloyd Banks was doing gay porn? I mean, the dude in the dvd look juuuuuuuuust like him. But the real guy came forward, and he still looked like Lloyd, but we knew what was up. Anyways... ya'll be the judge.

Let The Rumors Fly...Ciara and Philana

It's being reported that Ciara's ex manager Philana Williams, who was just recently fired by Ci-Ci's camp, may be secretly letting all of "Goodies" out the bag. Supposedly, now all of a sudden all of Ciara's business is in the street and on people's lips. Could Philana be retaliating against her for their sudden business separation by leaking private information to the internet bloggers of the black blogoshere or any blogoshere for that matter?

The recent split between Ci-Ci and Philana has been publicized by another blog site, who will remain nameless, through a series of tell-all allegations titled "The Ciara Diaries". All of this news is supposed to have Ciara upset. So they say. But the site also states that Ciara is a friend of the site... Sooooo why put your "friends" business out there like that? How trifling are you as a "friend"?

Anyways, "The Ciara Diaries" has been a three part series that makes some pretty shocking allegations. The stories chronical private details of Ciara's relationship with her alleged boyfriend rapper 50 Cent, her fallout with the man who put her on in the first place, Jazze Pha, and other details that no one knew about. And let folks tell it, Ms. Philana is behind it all.

Here is the 3rd entry for "The Ciara Diaries":

According to an insider, who is very close to Ciara, she doesn't trust her man 50 Cent. Ciara, allegedly, went through Fiddy's cell phone calling his celebrity friends, former significant others, and strippers. Rather than identify herself to them, she allegedly placed crank phone calls disguising her voice pretending to be an anonymous lover who was pregnant with his child.

When a few of these people figured out who she was, they called home boy who was naturally teed off. So teed off that he, allegedly, sent his goons down to Atlanta to repossess that Phantom automobile I told you about yesterday. So if you were wondering why Ciara was profiling in that car one minute, and the next minute it was gone - now you know. I guess when you're dealing with a child you take away her toys to teach her a lesson? Reggie Bush dumped her because he was tired of her games.

From what I'm gathering about this Philana chick, she's been in the game for a while and has a pretty nice resume to back it up. But if she's going around doing dirt like this because she get's fired, then she can cancel Christmas!

Let The Rumors Fly...

It's a sad sad day in the neighborhood folks. Well, at least that's what it's "rumored" to be. In today's installment of "Let the rumors fly"... Fantasia and Young Dro are our latest victims. It's being reported from my girl NecoleBitchie that our favorite couple from the hood is no longer. Folks close to Ms. Bitchie say that 'Tasia was at Studio 72 (shout out to JD) partying it up and had the DJ make the annuoncement that she's single??? Why oh why 'Tasia? You guys were the black Ken and Barbie... oh wait... that's Beyonce and Jay-Z, well you guys were their side kicks, James and Tameka. Hopefully, this is just a rumor because you could tell that these two really loved each other whenever they were together. We'll see how it all comes to light. Stay tuned...

Lil Waynes Daughter Is A-OK!

The rumor mill is hard at work again ya'll. This time, it's working on the babies and not the grown folk. Contradicting reports that recently surfaced on the internet, we have learned that Lil’ Wayne’s daughter was not killed in a car crash.

Several internet gossip sites reported that Reginae Carter, the daughter of Weezy was killed in a traffic accident late last night (August 11th). As a result of the rumors, Lil’ Wayne’s MySpace page was littered with comments and condolences but according to a representative from Wayne’s label, Universal Records, the reports are false and Reginae is doing just fine.

Reginae is Wayne’s child from his first marriage to his high school sweetheart, Antonia “Toya” Johnson.

Rocsi is Still In The Mix Of Lisa Raye and her Hubby

Well well well... so the truth finally comes to light huh? It seems that ya girl Rocsi from BET's 106th & Park has been on a straight up creep. Do you remember a while back when it all came out about Lisa Raye's husband, Turks and Caicos Premiere Michael Misick, was accused of rape of a young latino/hispanic lady at his home on the island... and everybody kept saying it was Rocsi, but somehow, she dodged that bullet... at least for the time being? Well, I was just over at SOHH.com and from the looks of things, it looks like Lisa Raye's well publicized marriage to the premier is about to end in an even messier well publicized divorce and yes yes ya'll... ya don't stop ya girl Rocsi was definitely the sure shot!

The statement below is what was emailed to one of the correspondents at SOHH from Lisa Raye's camp: This weekends Turks and Caicos Music Festival, popular BET VJ Rosci from 106 & Park were spotted canoodling with T&C Premier Michael Misick. Michael is currently under investigation for allegations of corruption and investigation for an alleged rape that took place at the Misick¹s house which Rosci¹s name was well mentioned-- while his wife, actress LisaRaye McCoy-Misick (All of Us, Beauty Shop) was away in New York City. Sources have even reported that Rocsi stayed at the Misick home and hosted guests as if she was the lady of the house.

I'm wondering now... if that little stunt on BET was in fact an actual stunt or was Rocsi for real and trying to get BET to fire her so that she can easily get out of her contract and get her money so that she can go play "head" mistress, instead of just quitting and getting nothing. I so agree with Streetz in saying that Rocsi is well on her way out of the BET studios with all this bull-ish she's pullin!

I'm sure most of you have seen Lisa Raye partying all over, and chick has been doing it without the bling on her wedding finger too! I'm so not mad at her at all!

Chris Brown and Jay-Z Got More Than Rihanna In Common

A couple of weeks back, Chris Brown was photographed carrying a baby ... but it wasn't his. I know for a fact THAT baby wasn't his. Everyone was throwing it out there that it was his baby and that he needs to be a better role model, yadda yadda yadda. Well now, he's back in that same predicament. This time, the chick called in to the local radio station in Virginia where Chris is from. The girl is a virginia native, named Michelle Gasper.

The 19 year old from Tappahannock, Virginia called her local radio station Saturday morning claiming that singer Chris Brown and herself had been in a relationship for over 2 years before he signed a record deal, and released his self-titled debut album in 2005. She claimed that the two first started dating in 2003, when they were both only 14 years old. Gasper claims that the two engaged in unprotected sex numerous times, and she had agreed with Brown to acquire in an abortion before later giving birth to her now 4 year old son (yes yes ya'll... this child is 4 years old), Deshante Gasper in July 2004. Gasper also claimed that her relationship with Brown had persisted well during the time he first signed a record deal with the label, Jive Records in late 2004, but his mother, Joyce Hopkins insisted that he ended the relationship with Gasper, having the fear of the public knowing of him being the father of a child, which she thought would tarnish his future music career.Gasper cried hysterically over the Essex County radio station implying that she wanted Brown to be in their 4 year old son’s life. The radio DJ, Maurice Hendricks questioned the truthfulness of Gasper’s allegations asking her why she would choose to speak out so many years later. She then replied in saying that Brown’s mother, Joyce Hopkins had been sending her money for several years to help with her son, Deshante and to also remain silent about the situation. Gasper insisted that Brown needed to play a more fatherly role in their son’s life since he was getting older, and had begun to ask questions about his father’s existence. Gasper remained on air for about 15 minutes while Hendricks continued to try to keep her calm. So far, there has been no comment from Brown’s publicist concerning these allegations.

Damn shame. Maybe it's me, but I never understood the reasoning behind not publicaly acknowledging your child. Wouldn't people respect you MORE if you told the truth instead of it coming out later?

Nelly Is Hot In Herre!

I was over at mediatakeout.com and found this picture of Nelly... innocently talking to a female. Now, whether that female is a stripper or not, I can't tell. I'm not going to speculate and say that she was. In the club where he was, there are always regular females in there just kickin it just like the men. So, she could just be a party attendee. Well, with all that said... this -ish ain't sittin well with ya boy Nelly.

Last night at Atlanta 300, Jermaine Dupri had his celebrity bowling event and from what I'm hearing, Nelly went off on several bloggers who asked him about the pictures. We all know that Nelly just signed that sweet lil deal with Sean John, and as part of that, he must uphold a respectable image in the public eye. Also, these pictures do nothing to squelch the rumors of Nelly having a stripper from Atlanta pregnant. I remember on the radio station when this rumor first came out, Nelly saying that he had never even been in the strip clubs here in Atlanta *blank stare*... Are you serious? So now all of a sudden you're just posted up huh? Oook Nelly! Hey, I'm not saying he's lying, but I'm just sayin!

Deelishis Has An Ex Who's On The DL???

Think back to all of the men that you have heard Deelishis being associated with. Now listen to this story, because it's exactly that... a story. This is just a rumor as far as I'm concerened. I'm not closely knitted into the hip hop circle, so I haven't heard many things about this person on that level. But I swear, nothing ceases to amaze me anymore!

The author of the latest tell all "Hiding In Hip Hop", Terrence Dean, supposedly caught up with our girl Deelishis aka London Charles and they had a little pow wow and this is how that alleged sit down went:

Well, me and Deelishus were introduced to one another. She notices my book and we got to talking about it.

She was like, "Oh my God! We have to talk."

"No problem," I said.

"Okay, you know I used to date someone in the business, right?" She looks me in my eyes with her gorgeous smile.

"Well, who are you talking about?" I asked already knowing who she was referring to. I really wanted her to say his name.

"He is a rapper," she says coyly. I get that she is not going to say his name. So I try a different approach.

"Did he used to have long hair?"

She thinks for a moment and then looks at me shocked. She nods her head and says, "Yeah."

"What do you want to know?" I ask.

"I mean, do you know anything. I heard..." her voice trails off and she looks at me for some indication or confirmation.

"I know some things."

"Oh my gosh!" Deelishus squeals. She puts her hand over her mouth. "It's no secret. We all know."

"No, no, no," She continues to squeal and backs away from me. She starts laughing. "Are you serious?" ***Hint... Put ya hands...... where?
