The person who bought that cheap azz cake is FIRED!

Damn Braylon Edwards (on the left) is sexy. But on the gossip tip…w/o puttin his business too out there…I heard from a HIGHLY CREDIBLE source that he is Meagan Good’s secret man she’s always talkin about. And I wonder what his girlfriend of 5 years thinks about this. Hmmm.

Source for pics

Finally a pic of the 2 original DC members:

Yep. It’s Latoya and Latavia big kickin it with Toya’s man Slim Thug at the Houston Car Show last month. I kinda miss those backup singers. I must say Latavia was m my original fave.

And on the gossip tip…for those of you wondering if LaToya cares her man is doing big business with Beyonce…I doubt it. Toya even has B’s HOD line in her Houston clothing store. It’s all about the business maaaaan.

Big Momma’s House 2 looks like it’s going to be funny as hell. Here are some stills:

Damn. Nicole Murphy was spotted out recently and her body makes you say

DAMN!!!

HALLE

WHO??

Amazing what a lil tummy tuck and a serious workout regime can do for you…after 5 kids. I’m hearing she works out with a trainer everday from 5a-6:30a. Hmm.

Lil Kim’s new single is “Whoa”. But this pic right here is SO not Whoa. (NSFW):

Joy Bryant is so fabulous:

Meagan Good was partying it up at the National Night Club in Hollywood last night. Wonder if she’s mad she couldn’t get in?

Oh Lawd!

Superhead (Karrine Steffans) and Bill Maher are talking about engagement. Bill told the NY Daily News that he is thinking about the proposal and they were spotted lookng for engagment rings at Tiffany’s. Sadly enough…if they do get married…it’ll probably last. Bedroom satisfaction is sure to be at an all time high.

Somebody find the producer of Flav’s new reality show and slap his azz.

I’m mad they even found enough girls to put this bachelor like show on. They did a sneak peek on VH-1 the other day and my stomach cramped up from the disgust…so I turned. The show starts Jan 1. I won’t be doing a recap.

When you have money you just don’t know what to do with…

A gold Dolce and Gabbana phone that runs for $2000 may settle your spending itch. Just ri-damn-diculous.

Damn the Holidays can wear you out. I just got back from Chicago so it’s back to the gossip folks….

Damn….Can that dude find a new club? And does he have on the same jeans as before? Booo.

Also in the spirit of Christmas…

Shaq served Kobe some ‘bow at the Miami/L.A. game on Christmas day.

And speaking of Kobe….he’s been delving into some interesting baller wear:

Someone please explain to me the reason for his nutcracker worthy tights? Definitely unnecessary. And his azz is straight lookin like Gumby.

At least he was in the Christmas spirit last week.

And some celebs were spotted kickin it courtside at the Nets/Knicks game:

Plaxico Burress with guest and Michael Strahan

I’m quite surprised Jiggaman didn’t fly in on his personal jet for a few hours from his vacay (probably with B) just to see this game…but I guess these are his fill-ins.

Just 2 more reasons to add to the list of why Tyra F’ed up on the newest ANTM:

More pics from the Biggie Duets album release party:

Well at least Diddy is puttin the girls out there with some publicity. He usually messes stuff up on that first step with all his other “artists”.

Lil Cease and Voletta Wallace

Diddy, Voletta, and Fat Joe

Somebody explain to me why V is cheesing something wicked in those pics with Lil Cease and Diddy….the same people she JUST went hella bad on in her book and all over the NYC radio stations? Guess she doesn’t hate them all that much afterall for using her son’s death for opportunities to stack their paper.

AHHHHHHHHH!

Why in the burnt hell are Babs’ hands lookin like something off the predator? She just a mess all around…always has been. Very unfab.

Speaking of Biggie Duets…why do Babs and Terror.Marie have the highly coveted role of “video ho” in the “Nasty Girl” video? Boo.

See, this is the kind of stuff that inspires me to do a “B*TCH PLEASE!” post:

Star is trying to inform all the ladies on how to land their very on Gal (Gay Al if you’re new). Little does she know that we don’t need the book cuz we get to see the video version every damn day.

Check out Mos Def and his wifey:

Well that smashes any dream I had of kickin it with Mos.

Oh, and Cutino just cuz he’s so sexy. And unmarried.

Make it stop Paige:

The newest reject of the DH crew is now in the studios recording a rap album. And he was just on Extra talkin about how him getting kicked off the show made him want to commit suicide. All the lies surrounding it were just too much too handle. *Sigh* The name of his album is…you guessed it folks..Life After Wisteria Lane. Boo. I’ve also heard it’s called Hold On, but I believe the first one.

Whoa….remember Scary Spice of the Spice Girls?

Yeah..that’s her. Mel B. She was spotted leaving Club Kingley in Soho. The real question here is who is that “man” with her?
