Say it ain't so....

Diddy and Kim Porter Expecting Twins
Not only are Sean "Diddy" Combs and girlfriend Kim Porter expecting, as the hip-hop mogul told PEOPLE exclusively in August, they're expecting twins.

"After Tom and Kate, and Brad and Angelina, I had to find a way to top them all," Diddy tells PEOPLE. "This is truly a blessing and we're really happy about the news."

The babies are due in December.

In a video posted Monday on his MySpace.com page, Diddy and the visibly pregnant Porter are shown standing outdoors as the words "Special Announcement" flash at the bottom of the screen. "Hey, whassup y'all," Diddy says. "We interrupt your browsing for this emergency announcement."

He goes on to talk about a recent morning when he woke up next to Porter and noticed she looked especially big for her stage in her pregnancy. "I said, 'Baby, I think you'd better go to the doctor, 'cause you're kinda big. You look like you're ready to give birth right now,' " he says.

"So we went to the doctor, and guess what?" he continues. "Your boy Diddy is a champion." Here, Porter laughs. "I am a champion," Diddy goes on. "The doctor told me and Kim, and I'm telling you right now, no press announcement, I'm just telling people in my family, that I'm having twins. It is official.

"Two more Combs. Two! World, you're in trouble now." He kisses Porter's belly and she asks if he's going to reveal the twins' sex. "We can't tell 'em the sex yet," he says. "We can't tell y'all everything. Some things gotta be private."

Combs and Porter already have a son, 8-year-old Christian, and Combs has another son, Justin, 12, with fashion stylist Misa Hylton-Brim. (Source: People)

As much as this news makes me nauseous, I can't help but give Kim Porter major props. I mean, she has singlehandedly revolutionized what it means to be a baby momma! Kim has turned this once frowned up status into a legitimate hustle! Can we really hate on that??

Note: Young hoes, don't try this at home!

Ain't no time, like a lil jail time!!


When brothas are down and out on their luck, and sitting in a barred two-by-four with someone telling them when to eat, piss and go to sleep, the blood definitely gets flowing to the big head. The sky undoubtedly becomes the limit! Check out the latest project soon to come from the infamous BeanS...a publishing company?!?! And here I thought, his ass was just wasting away in a jail cell, plotting his next "beef" in a poor attempt to bolster his almost defunct rap career. I'm a lil surprised...at least for now!

But on the real...am I the only one sick of the mass marketing of shit glorifying the hood and street life? Seriously, it's in the music, on tv and now overwhelming the literary scene. I know we got it bad and all, and I'm certainly glad black folks are reading and writing, but dayum!!! At what point will all of these bling bling, hood chicks, playa-hating stories get old? Do black folks not have any other stories to tell...no imagination?

Beanie Siegel Launching Publishing Company
By Nemisis

When Beanie Siegel was serving time in jail, the readings the rapper read inspired him to start a book publishing company.

The rapper said that works of urban/street novelists like Teri Woods Publications, Vickie Stringer of Triple Crown Publications and veteran scribes like Iceberg Slim and Donald Goines.

Beanie Siegel told AllHipHop.com, "Being in jail, I had the time to sit down and read a lot of books. I was reading a lot of dudes that wrote books while in jail, guys that have scripts and things."

Siegel admitted, while his idea isn't wholly original, it would provide occasion for convicts to have a chance and break the cycle of prison bids many fall to.

"It's the whole Vickie Stringer thing of how she was locked up and started a publishing company. That's what I would be getting my book [ideas] from, people that are incarcerated," he explained. "So, this is an opportunity to give them a chance, because I was there with them. That's what I'm going to be doing."

Beanie Siegel's real life has read like a novel from Stringer, Goines or Woods.

In September, Siegel was acquitted of attempted-murder charges in a Philadelphia, Pennsylvania court and was released from jail in August after serving nine months on gun possession.

Last month, Sam Derry, Siegel's stepfather was murdered and his body was found badly burned and dumped in a Philadelphia alley.

The rapper has had a number of other legal issues including a 2003 assault case from 53-year-old man who alleges that Siegel fractured his eye socket.

Huh?

And just when you think folks can't get any crazier....you read some shit like this article from the Chicago Sun Times.
Not only is 50 ignorant and wrong, his ego is worst than that nigga 'Ye's. I mean...W-T-F?

50 Cent Disagrees With West Over Bush
By Associated Press (November 2, 2005)

NEW YORK -- Rap feuds aren't usually about differing opinions on President Bush. However, that appears to be the case between 50 Cent and Kanye West.

50 says he disagrees with West's infamous statement that "George Bush doesn't care about black people," proclaimed during a September telethon for Hurricane Katrina victims.

"I think people responded to it the best way they can," 50 told ContactMusic.com. "What Kanye West was saying, I don't know where that came from."

Instead, 50 said, "The New Orleans disaster was meant to happen. It was an act of God."

It wouldn't be the first time 50 Cent, whose real name is Curtis Jackson, made comments that weren't flattering of West. In a September interview with MTV, 50 -- while otherwise complimentary of the popular "Gold Digger" rapper -- said: "I feel like Kanye West is successful because of me."

"After 50 Cent, (hip-hop fans) was looking for something non-confrontational, and they went after first thing that came along. That was Kanye West, and his record took off."

West's second album, "Late Registration," has remained near the top of the charts since debuting Aug. 30.

50 stars in the upcoming film "Get Rich or Die Tryin," a biopic of the rapper that is set to open Nov. 9.

SCANDALOUS...I love a good rumor!!!

From: Allhiphop.com


HELL TO THE NAW! A JAY-Z/ BEYONCE SEX TAPE!!
According the homeys at V103 in HOTlanta, there might be a 2-minute Jay-Z and Beyonce sex tape. The word is, some dude set them up at a hotel. The rumor says this guy set up his illegal shop in the couple's hotel room and collected the tape once they left. Word is, Beyonce and Jay-Z have already taken steps to block this person and might be considering legal action. Now, I spoke on a version of this rumor before, but this new information is really more detailed than what I said before. I have to ask, Why is the tape only 2 minutes?

If this is true, it's so fucked up! I really like them as couple and hope their relationship endures! And as for these other two attention whores below, I don't know what to say!




SUPERHEAD STRIKES AT TYRA BANKS!!!!!
Now, when I heard that Tyra Banks was coming out with a talk show, I was worried that it might be wack. Well, I have some news for you. Tyra Banks has started shooting already and she started with interviewing Karrine "Superhead" Steffans for the show. It got heated! Apparently, Tyra mentioned the people that Superhead speaks about in her book, "Confessions of a Video Vixen," are her colleagues and she thinks the book was written for the sake of revenge. But, Superhead flipped it. She apparently told Tyra that they aren't so different and that Tyra is nicknamed "Hollywood Hop," because of all the beds Tyra has hopped in and out of. WHOA! That's not me, y'all! I don't know where it came from, but its not me!

FYI: In case you missed Superhead's interview with Ms. Jonez of Hot97, take a listen here! The interview is about 45 minutes long. Happy listening!

Superhead...givin' up the goods proper....


'Video Vixen' memoir star-studded
New York Daily News

Hip-hop and Hollywood playas are ducking for cover now that everyone's favorite fly girl is telling all. After intensive vetting by lawyers, HarperCollins has gone to press with Karrine Steffans' "Confessions of a Video Vixen." Widely known as "Superhead" (no doubt because of her large cranium), Steffans doesn't hold back when it comes to dishing about her famous lovers. The video-eye-candy-turned-author claims:

Shaquille O'Neal "was charmingly self-effacing about his sexual prowess and wanted to reduce my expectations," she writes. But "compared to other men," she assures readers, "he was nothing to complain about." She says that Shaq was so impressed with Steffans that, the day after meeting her, he deposited $10,000 into her bank account.

Vin Diesel was "a beautiful man ... blessed with an enviable eight-pack and an even more enviable [bleep]." A small part in "A Man Apart" allowed Steffans to discover that star.

After hearing so much about Fred Durst's stature, she gushed, "to actually hold him ... felt like a privilege."

Sex with "insatiable" producer Irv Gotti "became more like a boxing match." During their affair, Steffans claims, Gotti lent her to his friends as he saw fit.

After inviting her to his home at 4 a.m., Sean (P. Diddy) Combs kicked his manservant Fonzworth Bentley out of a guest bedroom so he and Steffans could spend 15 minutes making love. "You're one of the best," she says P. Diddy told her. Steffans writes: "I said the same to him, when, in actuality, he was average." Ouch.

Steffans says she got around to Whitney Houston's husband, Bobby Brown, in late 2002. Steffans says she never saw him do drugs. But she worried for his mental health during a frantic encounter where "he told me he was a member of Al Qaeda and that President Bush was looking for him."

She made Ja Rule promise to "always come back." But after he slipped out one morning before she woke up, "I looked around for something to take with me, something that would smell like him but wouldn't be missed. On the floor I found a balled-up sock, and I placed it to my face and got the fix I was searching for." Sniff.

Steffans also tells the whole story of her back-of-the-limo tryst with Usher.
None of the stars' reps we called yesterday responded by deadline. Their handlers can at least take comfort in knowing that, after years of self-destructive star-chasing, Steffans now says, "I am my own woman and look for no one to complete me."

------------------------------------------

Superhead is her own woman and not looking for anyone to complete her? I seriously doubt it! Something tells me that she hasn't changed one bit. While, I can't wait to read this star-studded tell all, I'm really tickled by her being considered a "video vixen." I mean, maybe when she first got into the industry she was a video girl, but but well into her psuedo "career", she bacame a full-blown (pun intended) prostitute. I suspect she still is a prostitute. Can you believe it....video ho turned prostitute writer?

Just one question???

Are Memph Bleek and Beanie important to hip hop?

Check it...

BLEEK INTO ANOTHER SCRAP?
(Allhiphop.com)

First an immigrant busboy and now a South Carolina DJ? I heard that Memphis Bleek was in another fight, but this time down in South Carolina. Man, I have no idea why, but the DJ and Bleek got into it over something. Somebody’s chain got busted, but I can’t say whose it was since I don’t know. Now, I don’t know for certain, but from what I understand the DJ threw the first blow! Crazy! So, Bleek might have a case of his own. I’ll never accuse anybody of using legal cases to generate interest in their album, but I like Bleek so I am going to use this opportunity to promote for him. FREE AD: The Roc’s New Generation General Memphis Bleek has a new album, 534, slated for release on May 17. This album is Bleek’s fourth and it features Jay-Z, MOP and Foxy Brown – do or die, beyatches!!!!

BEANIE WILL COME HOME BEFORE R.KELLY GOES TO TRIAL!
(Allhiphop.com)

Its looking like Beanie Sigel is coming home a little faster than I expected. The word is he’ll be home in July or sometime this summer. I just want to give a shout-out to all the late night DJs at Hot 97 – y’all are doing your thing – especially Green Lantern…!


Ok, so maybe two questions...should we care?

In the news again...

See, I said I was gonna leave these assholes alone after my last fiasco (see: A Thuggish Ruggish Disaster and the follow-up Krayzie really is going through some thangs!), but they can't seem keep their shit together! They give me more reason to talk about their silly asses! Check this mess out....

BIZZY BONE AND WISH BONE FIGHTING?
(Allhiphop.com)

Now, I can’t confirm this, because I can’t find it where its supposed to be (whateverthat means). But I heard that Bizzy Bone’s publicist recently admitted on the group’s website that her artist was fighting Wish Bone. Apparently, the melee popped off when Wish asked Bizzy why he wouldn’t come back to The Bone Thug group. And Bizzy was like, “Where is the papers and the paper.” And seems like the matter escalated to blows. This occurred last week at a Bizzy show, I heard. I also heard that the group's major label come-back project is in serious jeopardy now that Bizzy ain't on board.


Now I know it's a rumor and all, but I mean, really...why? Is this some reverse fame shit? Are they thinking that maybe if they keep their names in the media, even on some bullshit, people will care?

Krayzie really is going through some thangs!

Remember my earlier post: (A Thuggish Ruggish Disaster)

Arrest Warrant Issued For Krayzie Bone
By Clover Hope

An arrest warrant for Krayzie Bone of Bone Thugs-N-Harmony was reportedly issued Wednesday (Feb. 24) after the rapper failed to appear at a scheduled plea hearing in Butler County, Ohio.

Krayzie Bone, born Anthony Henderson, has been battling charges of child support non-payment in Ohio for the last three years.

During a scheduled plea hearing in Butler County Common Pleas Court, Henderson, 31, would have received probation providing that he maintained steady child support payments for his 6-year-old son, according to Ohio's Journal News.

Henderson's nonattendance, however, carries a punishment of up to 18 months in prison. Assistant Prosecutor Aaron Aldridge requested a warrant for the rapper's arrest.

Henderson was indicted last August on two counts of the fifth-degree felony, nonsupport of dependents, which carries a 12-month prison sentence. At the time, prosecutors issued a warrant for Henderson's arrest for failing to appear in court to face the charges.

The rapper reportedly placed $40,000 in an escrow account for the mother of his son. The money was released to the mother after paternity tests verified that Henderson was the father of the child. Henderson had disputed paternity.

After the Butler County Child Support Enforcement Agency passed the rapper's case on to the prosecutor's office in 2002, Henderson paid a lump sum of $35,000, and the case was dropped before it was presented before a grand jury.

Henderson's failure to continue payments between 2002 and 2004 reportedly led to the August 2004 indictment.

Krayzie Bone's third solo album titled Gemini: Good vs. Evil was released earlier this month.

Nas' Baby's Mother To Release All In Tell-All Book
By Shawn Lawrence James

Carmen Bryan, mother of Nas' 10-year-old daughter Destiny recently emerged from seclusion and penned a tell-all autobiography highlighting her sexual and personal encounters in the entertainment industry.

The book, "Sex Drugs And Hip-Hop - Oh And Did I Mention Love" is a first person account clearing alleged rumors and detailing her experiences with celebrities such as Jay-Z, Allen Iverson, and Wendy Williams among others.

"I'm not writing this book to slam anyone, get even or because I have something to prove." Bryan explained on her website. "I am simply writing this book because it has always been a desire of mine."

Featured in the book will include her take on the Jay-Z/Nas 2001 battle which she believes initiated from both rappers involvement with her.

"I mean of course, they would probably say otherwise, but realistically speaking, no one just wakes up in the morning and decides to make a record about another person for no reason."

She also goes as far as saying that she inspired the majority of hits for the Jay-Z which reportedly included "Give It To Me, "Is That Yo Chick and "Best Of Me Remix".

"There were so many songs written about me." She bragged. "Between Nas & Jay-Z, I could release a compilation album called Carm's greatest hits."

In addition, she claimed to have been intimate with the recently wedded Nas after he began his relationship with Wife Kelis over three years ago.

As of press time, Bryan is in negotiations with several publishers to close a deal for the soon-to-be released book.

Leave it to these hoes in the industry...all it takes is fuckin' one celebrity before they try to propel themselves to stardom. I guess The Roots were right, everybody is a star!!! This bitch has a website...WTF?!?!
