Madonna Gives Back...

Who knew the 1980's bad girl would go from swinging on poles and kissing girls, to adopting children and building schools?

According to CNN.com, the 50-year-old single mother of three, is a big supporter of Malawi. Currently she helps run a nonprofit group called, "Raising Malawi," which implements initiatives to help the needy in southeastern Africa.

Madonna is shown in the above picture with her first Malawi adopted child, "David Banda." She is in the process of completing her second adoption of baby girl Chifundo "Mercy" James. Critics question Madonna's reason for adopting these children and how they fit into her lifestyle.

While the pop-star is known for spontaneous and questionable acts, she obviously has a generous heart. I don't think there's anything wrong with spreading the wealth and giving someone a chance to a better life. As long as she's not mistreating them in any way, I completely support her. Keep doing what your doing Madonna!!!

Lil Kim Dances with the Stars........

and did extremely well....I must say I was impressed and the judges were too. Lil Kim looked like a serious latin dancer the way she swayed her hips and worked the Cha Cha. I wasn't expecting her to do as well as she did, but to my surprise she can really dance....and I'm not talking about booty shaking, back popping....I'm talking about dancing.

Her dance techniques were commendable and I think she has a chance of winning. The competition is a little tough, but nothing the Queen 'B' can't handle.....work it Lil mamacita!!!!

Tyra Could NEVER be Oprah

First let me start by saying I'm a huge fan of Tyra and appreciate her efforts and accomplishments in the modeling industry. But it stops there..... As far as her talk show, I think she's out of place and has nothing to offer her guests or audience.

One of her latest episodes is a prime example of this. Did anyone see "The Pregnant Prostitute?"

If you did then I would love to hear your thoughts on the show......For those of you that didn't, the title speaks for itself.

The episode aired Saturday, March 7 and featured a young pregnant woman that was prostituting to support herself and her unborn child. Tyra completely demeaned and embarrassed the young woman throughout the entire show, and had no resolutions or encouragement to offer.

Tyra referred to her as a pregnant prostitute rather than calling her by name. She even had the audacity to take the camera crew behind the scenes to film the young woman's encounter with one of her clients. Camera crews followed the woman and her client into the bedroom and taped everything except the sexual intercourse (looked like soft-porn if you ask me). It was terrible and unnecessary.

I was waiting for a counselor or a prostitute turned Christian, to appear on the show and give the young woman support or guidance, but there was nothing. Only Tyra ranting about her being a pregnant prostitute. I'm so disappointed in Tyra. This was her opportutnity to help somoene that was clearly crying for help.....instead Tyra exploited and embarrased her on national TV and sent her home feeling worse than she came...........Not an Oprah move Tyra.

Stick to what you do best, modeling!!

Keri Punks Out!!

After talking all that smack on her remix "Turning Me On," Keri apologizes to Beyoncé and Ciara. Cici confronted Keri during a radio interview in Atlanta, and Keri cops a plea and says she wasn't taking shots at any one.



Whatever Keri....you would've had more respect in the street if you would've stuck to your guns. Don't say something you can't back up, PUNK!!!!!! I still luv you though!!

Remember Me???

Spotted at a park in his hometown, Chris Kelly, former member of "Kriss Kross," posed for pictures from passing 'fans.' Little did Mr. Mac Daddy know, those photos would later be used to exploit him and his health condition. The image below surfaced on Mediatakeout a few weeks ago and many people are wondering if Chris is doing okay.Suffering from what he describes, Alopecia, a condition that causes hair loss from areas of the body, Chris says he's in good health but 'just has a few bald spots." To clear up any rumors and misconception, StraightfromtheA.com interviewed Chris, and here's what he had to say:

Christina - "That Ain't It"

HOW DID YOU GO FROM THIS.................TO THAT??

The picture on the right displays Christina Milian's latest transformation....and it's raising many eyebrows and questions in the industry.

Is she working on a new film? Is she on drugs? What's gotten into her?

I don't know but I hope she has a good explanation for this monstrosity. From the hair, glasses, lip stick, shirt and jacket....she looks a HOT MESS!!!!

Usher and friends had many comments to make about Milian's new look, and I don't blame them. I think someone needs to call the Bama Police....because Milian is a fugitive on the loose!!!!

Jamie Likes it *SLOW*

and I do too......

The second release from Jamie Foxx new album "Intuition" is sexy and seductive...the perfect recipe for baby making season. I absolutely love this track, titled "Slow."

Fellas if you didn't know the ladies like it slow, then you obviously don't push right buttons in the bed room. Do yourself a favor and pull out a pin and a sheet of paper and take notes.

If you haven't heard the song, you are in for a real treat.....

Sit back....Relax....Take a deep breath....Push play and take it S....L....O....W!!!!!

Keri Drops Biscuits on Beyoncé & Ciara

The hottest remix of 2009 is Keri Hilson's "Turning Me On" featuring T-Pain and Lil Wayne. Ms. Hilson freestyles on this version which is nothing short of FIRE!!!

Keri throws salt on Beyoncé and Ciara's game...calling them ho's and e'rything.....sounds like she's trying to pull a 50 cent and shut down the hype behind Bey and Cici.

I'm not sure if this is a publicity stunt, but she surely got my attention. Check out the remix and lyrics below and let me know what you think.

Angry McD's Customer Calls 911

Latresha Goodman was denied a refund on her 10 piece chicken Mcnugget order, so she called 911 to the rescue.

Apparently, Latresha ordered and paid for her meal at a Florida McDonalds, but never received it because they ran out of nuggets. Latresha didn't want anything else on the menu, so she asked for her money back, but the manager refused, and demanded she choose something else.

Hungry and angry, Latresha called police to the scene. Click below to hear her telephone call to dispatch!


What would you do in this situation, pick something else, demand a refund, or leave hungry and short changed? I know I would've asked for my money back....doesn't matter the amount, its all about the principle. If the manager refused to refund MY money, there would have been patties flying and fries burning. Someone would have called an ambulance to rescue the manager from a McKnuckle sandwich.

During a recession you can't play with people's food and their money.....that manager is lucky she was dealing someone as civil as Latresha. Things could have been much worse!!!

After the whole ordeal Latresha walked away hungry and few dollars short. A McDonalds rep later commented on the issue saying they would refund Latresha her money and offer her a chicken Mcnugget meal on the house. Hopefully Latresha makes it to the McD's before they run out of nuggets again!!!

Beyonce *Video Phone* Parody

I swear these get better and better!!! This group seems more official than all the others I've seen. Beyoncé needs to recruit some of these dancers because they are truly working it!!!

OOOWWW!!!!!

Lil Kim, Gone Hollywood

As if plastic surgery wasn't enough...Lil Kim shows a different side of her in her latest venture, "Dancing with the Stars." The below interview with Kim and her partner Derek Hough is enough to leave you speechless (at least that's how it left me). Who knew the Queen 'B' could be so valley?
