Tidbits

Jim Jones, Dame Dash, and Diddy were all caught clowning around the studio a few days ago:

They were there discussing "business opportunities" and I'm told they can't go into detail just yet. Hmmm....

And Whitney's first comeback single has been confirmed. At the Pop Conference in Seattle this past Friday, famed songwriter Diane Warren revealed that the song she wrote for Whit called "I Didn't Know My Strength" would indeed be Mama Whitney's official comeback single. Diane said she wrote the song specifically for Houston. "I tried to get inside her head," Warren said about the track which Houston performed at Clive Davis' Pre-Grammy Gala on February 7th. "Strength" will be featured on the 45-year-old singer's singer’s seventh solo album, and will be produced by famed hitmaker David Foster. The still-untitled project has been speculated as a 2009 release. More ish when you read the rest... More fun times in the studio:

LOL at homegirl in the background side eyeing the hell out of Jimmy Jones.

And Lebron James' new movie More Than A Game is set to hit theaters October 2nd:

Here's the synopsis: Five talented young basketball players from Akron, Ohio star in this remarkable true-life coming of age story about friendship and loyalty in the face of great adversity. Coached by a charismatic but inexperienced player’s father, and led by future NBA superstar LeBron James, the “Fab Five’s” improbable seven-year journey leads them from a decrepit inner-city gym to the doorstep of a national high school championship. Along the way, the close-knit team is repeatedly tested—both on and off the court—as James’ exploding worldwide celebrity threatens to destroy everything they’ve set out to achieve together. More Than A Game combines a series of unforgettable one-on-one interviews with rare news footage, never-before-seen home videos, and personal family photographs to bring this heart-wrenching and wholly American story to life.

MALE BONDING is another

MALE BONDING is another story. Friends showing affection... Look at the expression on Diddy's face. What do YOU see? I mean, it's alright if they are bi-sexual, homosexual, thug-sexual, etc. Whatever. It's alright, I'm not judging. At least be real about it. If that's you - that's you. But all this homo-ish behavior speaks louder than words. There's only so much hiding you can do in plain sight.

eastcoasta: Jimmy, Dame,

eastcoasta: Jimmy, Dame, and Diddy all have 3 things in common they are all rich and black:)( i cant help it i love those two words together:)……….. they all seem like arrogant pricks (like their own family probably don’t like em)…. and they all seem suspect ( give off a gayish vibe)… Devonne: Diddy’s sexuality came into question for me when Karrin Stefans wrote her book and said that that was the one nicca that she did NOT suck in the industry and that when he did take her and another rapper out with him,he took them to a gay club.Karrin may be a whore, but she’s an honest whore. helloboy: AMEN!!! People aren't saying everyone is but Diddy been a BIG question mark to many...many times. And those tell all books,etc doesn't help I'm not wishing he is bi or whatever but he's questionable. You guys didn't see that suspect video of Diddy looking high in some random club in another country...everyone around him was gay? Hence gay club...Don't know how he ended up there *side eye* Too bad I can't post links...another site had it up

BOOTY BANDITS....: YOU MAY

BOOTY BANDITS....: YOU MAY HAVE A POINT, BUT BEING THE FACT THAT JIM JONES WAS OR FROM THE LOOKS AT THESE PICS IS DIDDY’S BACK DOOR BOY. NOT SURE IF DAME IS ON THE DL…..NEVER HEARD NUTHIN, BUT DIDDY & JIM J HAVE BEEN GETTIN IT IN FOR A MINTUTE. Yep sorry to the first person. Diddy--in his puffy/puff days was getting "it" in literally! This I was a witness to. Sorry babe. He was showing everybody love both men & women--I mean public display of love--whatever you want to call it. But after the lights go down and not many are around he shows boys a little bit more affection & love...if you get my drift. No bullsh*t.

Just Saying: I just KNEW

Just Saying: I just KNEW someone was going to mouth of about the pics looking “gayish.” This is the problem with Black women- you restrict Black men from showing any kind of love, affection for other men who are strictly platonic, and then complain when those same men don’t know how to love you. Why do you think that is? Y’all just make me sick sometimes with all your homophobic nonsense!!!! Ugh!And yes, I’m Black! I think there is a bit of paranoia in the Black female population. But knowing whether or not someone engages in risky sexual behavior is important. We need to ask men these days how many women AND men they've slept w/ and ask to see their AIDS results & use protection. It's like a legal transaction nowadays. I think the reason women react this way is because it's upsetting. Not only are black men flocking to white women, now they're sexing each other? And you can't tell whose truly gay or just DL and likes a little a$$ occassionally (like an 'asstooth' instead of a sweet tooth). It's ridiculous. If Diddy is gay or bi, that is his biz. But don't act like you don't know why women call these guys out. AIDS is no joke.

Your man could be creeping on you with a FEMALE who has AIDS from a dirty needle or blood transfusion, and STILL bring it home to you. Its so boring and ignorant for all these women bashing DL men for AIDS transmission. Your man may be "getting it in" with another healthy dude and never bring anything home to you. Lets focus on the wrong of the ACT and not try to point fingers at a certain type of dude... and its true, women complain their man aint affectionate or sensitive enough, but the moment he shows some type of affection/vulnerability the gay comments begin. Yall dont know WHAT the hell yall want.

I agree with the comments

I agree with the comments that all black men are not gay just because they are more in touch with their femine characteristics or show affection. I personally, do not want a hard man raising my son. It is okay to express your feelings and show affection towards people you love and care about whether it is your male friend or female friend. However, Diddy has been suspect for a long time with the gay rumors which I pray is not true. I do not think Damon D flies that way. As far as Lebron, I am very proud of him. I thought he was going to be a flashy ghetto millionaire but he proved me wrong. He is really responsible and "normal". I will support his movie, love to see black people doing positive things. Lebron does a lot of positive things for the community.

Instead of always popping off

Instead of always popping off about who's gay and who's straight in black Hollywood, we should be discussing why African-American women have the largest AIDS/HIV population than any other nationality group. I'm a women, but I'm sick to death of hearing black woman complaining about men being on the DL when we should be MORE concerned about our loose morals and values that allow us to contact the deadly disease in the first place...

There is a high-level of

There is a high-level of infection when men in prison "dabble" while locked up and then go back to their women. That is a fact. Married women are a high percentage of women living with HIV. That is another fact. J.L. King and E. Lynn Harris have informed us profusely that your football playing boyfriend in college was theirs too. So for me, it isn't so much so that I am "paranoid" but realitynoid. Our apprehension is not unwarranted. A single Black Woman today had better have every radar up that she has when it comes to dating. Just like other things on the list of "don't want"- such as whores, liars, abusers, addicts, pedophiles and lazy corner slanging hangers- many of us do not want a brother who is down-low, bisexual or likes to have his bootyhole "played with"- period. You can still show affection and express your feelings if you are a complete man. And I ain't with the bashing by gay men when it comes to what I do and do not want. Just because I don't want THAT nicca doesn't mean that I believe that every Black man or every brother in entertainment is gay.
