Kelis Doesn't Plan on Breast Feeding

And it's obvious based on her twitter post.....it's only been a few days since giving birth and Kelis guzzles a glass of sangria.....I guess she couldn't wait to drop that load...so she could get back into the swing of things.

I hope her nanny was on duty before she took a swig of that wine....for some reason she' doesn't strike me as the motherly type....God help her!!!!

What's New With Rhianna??

Not a damn thing.....for someone who's in the limelight so much you'd think Rhianna was working on an album or something.

Rumor has it that Jay Z, Kanye and Rhi Rhi are supposed to collaborate on a new album...as interesting as it sounds for some reason I don't see it happening. But one things for sure it's about time for Barbados' good girl gone bad to step from under that umbrella and make it rain with some new music.

Where you at Rhi???

Whitney Houston "I Look To You"

Check out Whitney Houston's new song..."I Look To You" and tell me what you think.



I'm happy to see Whitney finally make a comeback after all these years. Her highly anticipated album sounds like its going to be a hit. It's pretty obvious that her voice is not same, but there's no denying that she still has something left in those pipes (vocal pipes that is......). Welcome back Whitney!!! I can't wait to hear the next single.

Will Michael Vick Get Reinstated??


I sure hope so.......I think he's paid his dues and should be allowed back in the league. Hopefully this experience humbled him and we'll see him pour his heart and soul out onto the field.

It will definitely take sometime for him to regain his respect in the public eye....perhaps donating to an animal shelter will help him win back the hearts of his fans. Either way...I say let him play. Enough is enough......don't we all deserve a second chance?

"I AM NOT MY HAIR"

Or maybe you are when you're a celebrity.....Everyone has been experimenting with the half shaved...blady look lately, but IT'S NOT WORKING FOR EVERYONE!!!!

Ciara's trying it....but its not for her....I'm glad she didn't' fly off the deep end and cut her hair....It's smarter to test the waters and rock a wig instead...

Too bad Solange didn't get the memo....her recent hair cut failed miserably.......what was she thinking? It looks like she
cut it herself and threw some jheri curl products on top of it to give it a little life.....NOT WORKING. She's a pretty girl...but that isn't the look for her.

I think a lot of women are going through some sort of crisis and the first thing they think to do with themselves is cut their hair...look at Britney Spears...

Who's next...Beyonce? Now you know if Bey cuts her hair it's going to freeze on planet Venus.

It's Cheaper To Keep Her

Evidently Nas and Kelis aren't planning on reconciling......after the birth of their baby boy....straight to divorce court they went.

Nas left an unhappy and broke man..... sources say the judge ruled in Kelis' favor awarding her $55,000 a month in spousal and child support. In addition to that Nas has to pay the mortgage on Kelis' L.A. home,
in addition to a baby’s nurse, prenatal expenses and medical insurance, and Kelis' $35,000.00 legal fees......WOW....sounds like someone didn't sign a prenup.

I don't know about you but I think that's a bit excessive. Does Nas really make that much to afford those payments along with his own personal expenses? More importantly, does it really cost that much to raise a child? Besides, what is Kelis going to be doing while Nas is forking over all that money? Sounds to me like she's got it made......But let's evaluate the message that being delivered.

Beautiful woman marries rich, has children and doesn't have to work a day in her life. Has that become the American dream? Has society become so engulfed with beauty and money that core values and morals get lost in the shuffle?

I don't know if I feel bad for Nas....I mean that's the life he choose. Sooner or later these athletes, musicians and high paid executives will think twice before falling for a pretty face and a big booty. Next time ask her for a resume and credit report.....

Rhianna's Doing Too Much!!!

As much as I LOVE Rhianna.....I have to admit she's beginning to lose me.

Her hair cut is cute, but the vampire/cat woman nails scare me....how does she pick her nose or wipe her buns without stabbing herself? This looks a little dangerous...Dominatrix style if you ask me!!!

Kelis Gave Birth

To a healthy baby boy today......and sources say Nas is by her side. The two were scheduled to appear in court to dispute child support payments, but the baby put halt on the proceedings.

You know how babies have the tendency to bring about change....hopefully this change will be a positive one that will benefit all parties. Will Nas grow a heart and want his family back? Or will Kelis continue to be greedy and use the baby as a meal ticket? I guess we'll have to wait and see.

I wonder who the baby will look like most...perhaps a combination of the two....they should name him NAHLIS....I love it!

Chris Brown Asks for Forgiveness

But is it too late? Chris released a video confession and apology to fans in hopes to win back the hearts of many. While his statement and apology seem sincere I don't think it's enough to rebuild and regain his respect in the media. Publicly apologizing and accepting responsibility for his actions was a smart move, but I doubt he'll be getting any endorsements anytime soon!

Change Is The Air.....

Can you smell it? I can feel it...and I'm so excited. If you haven't noticed I've been a little slow on updating the blog....having been pulled in so many directions....but that's all about to change. Your girl is back...refreshed...feeling better than ever...real swaggerific if you can dig it.

Expect to see some improvements and continue to show love and leave comments. Many thanks to my three readers and supports....you keep me going! Love you much!!

Kisses!!

Lil Kim Sings?

Who knew Lil Kim had vocals?? Lil Kim teamed up with Cyndi Lauper for a duet of Lauper’s "Time After Time." The duet overall was entertaining, but Lil Kim definitely needs to stick to rapping. While she wasn't horrible, it's clear she's not a singer....something like Beyoncé trying to act....

Anyway check out the performance below!

What's Wrong With Neyo?

Neyo breaks out into tears on stage while performing in Manchester and cancels the show early. I've checked with my sources to get the inside scoop but no one seems to know what's going on. I hope everything's okay....We love u NEYO and we'll keep you in our prayers!!

Pillsbury Doughman.....

Was on the orange line train yesterday.......and he left me in the mood for some BISCUITS!!!

Hated It!!!

Look at Wendy's mess of a dress that she's planning to wear on your next show....


I don't care who its by and how well she tries to style it up with accessories.....this is a pure monstrosity and I had to tell her.

Wendy posted this picture on tweeter, asking for feed back....and I told her exactly what I'm tell you...this dress looks a HOT MESS!!!!

OMG!!!!

A male amputee sings Mariah Carey's "Obsessed"....check it out!!!



He must have arms of steel to hold himself up and move about so well. I definitely admire his courage and attitude. He makes me reevaluate the minor things I would love to change about myself.....gotta be more appreciative and thankful.

5 Types of Women That All Men Hate!!!

Thanks to my #1 gossip girl Necole Bitchie...I found an interesting article that I think the ladies...and fellas might enjoy.
Written By The Fly Guy

It’s time to officially clear the air. There seems to be this common misconception, which suggests that men have lower standards when choosing a mate. That couldn’t be further from the truth. In fact, men are a lot pickier than we lead you to believe. To prove this point, I’ve decided to share “Five Types of Women That All Men Hate.” So pay close attention, and if this sounds like someone you know, then that may explain why they can’t seem to keep a man.

1. Ms. “Stick In The Mud”
This woman never seems to have any fun … ever. Her idea of a good time is probably a quiet evening at home reading the encyclopedia while eating a Lean Cuisine. On top of that, she doesn’t know how to give or take a joke, since she takes herself way too seriously. Will you relax … please?

2. Ms. “No One Else”
Ms. “No One Else” wants all of your free time—every single second of it. As soon as the two of you get close, she stops talking to all of her friends and expects you to do the same. Some men may reluctantly agree, but that arrangement soon grows old.

3. Ms. “Something To Prove”
Ms. “Something To Prove” has always worked hard to show the world she was capable of doing anything she set her mind to. And while the entire male population applauds her strength, we get kind of tired of her reminding us about it throughout the entire date.

“I’ve got a good job.”
“I don’t need a man to do anything for me.”
“I’ve always been independent.”
“I’m going to write a book encouraging other women to be strong like me.”

Honestly, we’d rather listen to a Paula Abdul Greatest Hits album than to sit through an entire evening of that.

4. Ms. “Read My Mind”
For some reason, Ms. “Read My Mind” expects her man to know exactly what she’s thinking at all times. As a result, she constantly tests him, using his responses to gauge his level of love. This type of behavior should be avoided, as very few men are interested in dealing with the constant guessing games.

5. Ms. “Chatterbox”
Communication serves as the cornerstone for all serious relationships. However, some women overdo it a bit. The problem with Ms. “Chatterbox” is that she spends most of her time talking, and none of it listening. Before long, this type of woman grows even more annoying than that one drunk uncle who always tries to hit on your female friends.

The Fly Guy Moral:
So now that I have outlined the five types of women that all men hate; what now? Will you continue to hold out hope that he will one day change his mind and accept you as you are? Or will you learn the art of compromise and begin addressing those personal issues that aren’t conducive to a healthy relationship? I pray you choose the latter.

Are You Easily Bored?

Then maybe you're a boring person.....Here's a quick test to see if you're lively or lame.

1) Are you easily bored with people or conversations that don't appeal to you?

2) Do you constantly talk about other people with your mate or close friends?

3) Are you predictable?

4) Do your friends describe you as being boring?

5) Your hobbies consist of work related activities?

6) You find excuses not to participate in activities or hang out with friends?

7) You have very few friends or associates?

If you answered yes to any of the above questions then consider yourself BORING. Spice up your life by being more adventurous and spontaneous. Stop complaining about being bored....because usually a bored person is the cause of their own boredom.

"Everything's Amazing But Nobody's Happy"

A statement made by Louis C.K. from the Canon O'Brien show....while his commentary is absolutely hilarious...it's also very true. Take a moment to be entertained and reflect on the many things you may take for granted. Enjoy!

Long Live Michael Jackson!!

Who Did It?

As the Steve McNair murder-suicide investigation progresses, I think the evidence clearly points in one direction....McNair's girlfriend, Sahel Kazemi.

I believe Sahel Kazemi, is responsible for taking the lives of both McNair and herself. In recent reports, the gun used in the murder-suicide, was purchased by Sahel two days before the incident and "hours after she was bailed out of jail by McNair for a DUI charge" according to Tennessean.com.

McNair and Sahel meet at Dave & Buster, which is where she worked as a waitress....they had been dating for 6 months and apparently fell head over hills in love. The two shared a condo and an Escalade that McNair bought Sahel for her birthday. The two traveled quite a bit, having visited, Miami, Las Vegas, Hawaii, and McNair's house farm in Mississippi, according to TMZ.

Interviews with Sahel's family suggest that McNair was in the process of divorcing his wife, Mechelle of twelve years, to marry Sahel. While divorce papers where never filed the couples home was up for sale. Sources say Mechelle had no idea her husband was having an affair and unfortunately didn't learn about his post-teenage mistress until police contacted her about McNair's death. One can only imagine how horrified she must be to have lost her husband and to learn about his infidelity this way.

While police are still searching for a motive and investigating all possible suspects, I think it's pretty evident what took place....based on the time frame of events and the facts presented, I believe McNair threatened to leave Sahel (for whatever reason) and she couldn't stand the idea of losing him....so she killed him and herself. It's sad it had to happen, especially when it could have been prevented all together.

The most we can do is pray for Mechelle McNair and their four sons. May God give them the strength to persevere through this difficult time and find peace in the good memories they have of him...and not dwell on his tragic ending.

Trouble in Paradise??

I couldn't help but notice that ever since the Rhianna and Chris saga ended, Jay-Z and Beyoncé have been on hiatus.....Rumor has it that during the BET Awards Jigga and Bey stayed in separate hotels and spent the weekend celebrating with friends rather than each other...

Meanwhile over the holiday weekend Jigga and Rhianna was spotted at Diddy's White Party.....and Beyoncé was no where in sight.

What Would GOD Do?

As much I enjoy the song "God In Me" and the ladies of Mary Mary, I can't let this slide.....

Did anyone see the liquid leggings Tina wore at the BET Awards? I can't believe she had the nerve to wear them considering her size and most importantly the song they were singing. Those leggings were not a good representation of the "GOD in her".

She looked uncomfortable...and I'm sure it took her a while to squeeze into them..it wasn't a very classy look for a gospel duet and quite frankly she looked a mess...I always get the feeling that she tries too hard and is more interested in secular music than gospel. It wouldn't surprise me if she jumped ship and signed with someone like.....Diddy!!!!

What Was Vibe Thinking....

...when they decided to let Christina Milian and The Dream grace the cover of their LAST magazine issue? That's a classy grand finale.......there's no wonder why the magazine has gone bankrupt....whoever made the final editing decision should have been fired a long time ago.I don't know who I'm more upset with, the editor that published the cover or the photographer that took the picture. There's nothing artistic or classy about it. I understand where they were going with it...but it didn't work. The photo had potential minus the hands down the pants portion and the arm/breast hold could have been positioned or framed better.

"Crazy in Love" there are so many artists that could have been chosen for this feature. Kanye and Amber...Beyoncé and Jay Z.....Obama and Michelle for heavens sake....but Christina and The Dream...boooooooooooo.

Besides, what warrants them cover privileges? Outside of Christina's relationship with The Dream...she has nothing new to report....and there are so many other interesting/bigger issues at hand other than LOVE.

After a 16-year stretch, the VIBE could have done better in leaving a lasting impression on readers....but unfortunately they let me down. So long!!!
