'Cause Gossip And Liquor Go Hand In Hand



I finally got the opportunity to listen to "The Wendy Williams Experience" last week while in my car going to the grocery store to pick up some extra cayenne pepper and water and I laughed my ass off. Wendy signed on today as an official spokeswoman for Alize, good for her. Maybe one of these days all my Chek soda plugs will pay off.

Groupie Love Turns Ugly



A catfight broke out between a hot-headed hoochie in Bobby Brown's entourage and a Russian model at new lounge 83 Worth Street the other night. A spy tells us Brown - who was without wife Whitney Houston - showed up with "an entourage of women," one of whom picked a fight with the catwalking girlfriend of owner Jeff Krauss. "Brown's groupie managed to grab the Russian model by the hair and threw her against a wall before security guards escorted her out," we're told. Brown and his better-behaved gal pals were allowed to stay and made the most of it by dancing into the wee hours to DJ Uri Dalal's set.

This wouldn't have ever happen if Nippy was with him. She would've took both of them hoes down to Chinatown.


Mimi Snags Another "Award"

Mariah Carey is no stranger to receiving awards when it comes to her legendary voice... but for her legs? Mariah is the first celebrity recipient of the Gillette Venus' "Celebrity Legs of a Goddess" award. The award ceremony was held to kick off Gillette's fourth annual contest in search of the hottest legs in America.



Although the event wasn't as huge as the Grammys, it's no surprise that the diva made an appearance. Mariah unveiled a sixteen foot replica statue of her legs. Wonder what the full size looks like! The "Legs of a Goddess" contests will be held at select venues during Ms. Carey's highly anticipated concert tour, 'The Adventures of Mimi: The Voice, The Hits, The Tour.' The national winner of the contest will receive a $25,000 grand prize. Sorry ladies, only Mariah's legs will be massively immortalized. (TMZ)

Rihanna And No-No At The Universal Block Party In Australia

This past weekend while watching about two hours of the Laguna Beach marathon (I love those rich white kids, I really do) I caught the episode of 106 & Park when Rihanna premiered her video for "Unfaithful" and I damn near had a stroke when she started dancing. I don't think the video director made it with the intentions of being funny but it was to me.

During the first 20 seconds I thought her love interest was John Legend (ha!) but of course I was wrong. I can't wait for the kids standing outside of the TRL building to request this one. Check out the first comment on the page. All my comment box folks will remember this is the same song she sung live in Japan that had us screaming.



Is there a beauty contest going on and someone neglected to tell me about it? What's up with the
Kiki Shepard wave?



Remember when No-No said that he slept with his entire 10th grade class or some nonsense? Well I don't think he was lying. Ne-Yo is probably a pretty good dick dealer but he's not the type you put on blast and tell everybody (ahem, Rashida Jones).
When it's all over please get up and leave. Question. Why does it look like someone is teaching him how to chunk up the deuce?


Kidada Jones Is Slow



Your average celebutante can be pretty flighty. Take fledgling designer Kidada Jones (above), the 32-year-old daughter of music man Quincy Jones and actress Peggy Lipton, and a onetime girlfriend of Tupac Shakur.

Kidada's little sister, Rashida, dished the other day to a Lowdown spy: "Kidada recently got a free leather softener from Coach, which she thought she was supposed to use on her face as a moisturizer. Kidada used it and complained to me that it was too oily. After a while, she finally figured out it was for leather."

The 30-year-old Rashida explained: "Kidada was kicked out of 11 schools by the age of 15. She was a rebel. She got kicked out for bad behavior, being angry and overexcited. I don't think my going to Harvard while Kidada had trouble in school is an example of siblings splitting. She was just being a normal teenager. But Kidada ultimately graduated from the Fashion Institute in L.A. So it worked out."

And in the future, she might even be able to distinguish between shoe polish and face lotion. (New York Daily News)

Its one thing when you put some crap on your face that doesn't have any business being on it . . . but when your sister rats you out that's just plain funny. Thanks Da Real and Yllona for the tip once again!

Lil X and Andre Harrell @ Baby Phat and Phat Farm Hampton's Summer Kick Off Party



Beyonce Made Jay-Z Cancel His Team Chunk Membership

For her birthday on Sept. 4, Beyonce will go against tradition and give away a present -- her long-awaited sophomore solo album, appropriately titled, "B'Day." The Music World Music/Sony Urban Music/Columbia Records set, featuring all new music co-produced, written and arranged by Beyonce, will be released worldwide on the 4th, and in the United States a day later on Tuesday, Sept. 5. . .

B'Day's' first single, "Deja Vu," features Beyonce reteaming with her boyfriend Jay-Z in hopes of matching the success of their previous collaboration, "Crazy in Love," the first single from her 2003 debut solo album, "Dangerously in Love." Speaking of Jay-Z, In Touch weekly is reporting that Beyonce has put him on a diet to shed some extra pounds.

The singer, who reportedly went on a water and cayenne pepper diet to slim down quickly for "Dreamgirls," has the rap mogul eating lean proteins and vegetables, and steering clear of candy, his favorite food. The effort has already resulted in a loss of about 15 pounds, the magazine reports. A source tells In Touch: "Beyonce likes a little meat on his bones, but not too much ... [and Jay Z] was getting chunky." Jay Z, 36, was reportedly thirty pounds lighter when he and Beyonce began dating in 2003. (Eurweb)

Oh really, B'Day eh? I would've loved to been a fly on the wall the day she told Jay-Z to lose the Team Chunk membership card. I still think that cayenne pepper water diet is fucking ridiculous. Wouldn't that make your piss hot? I shudder at the thought. If I have to drink some shit that is going to make my turds come out like I've been eating a bag of flamin' hot cheetos its not worth it.


Party With The Fonz



Its no secret that metrosexual men throw one hell of a party. I've been to a couple of soirees hosted by a few and honey I had to clutch my pearls all night long like Lionel Richie. Everything from the drinks to the entertainment was on point. Yeah, there may have been some random guy walking past with his ass out but no one was complaining.


If you didn't already know our favorite baggage handler Fonzworth Bentley is also a rapper. I must admit that I like his song "Laid Back." I could definately see Kanye and his rhythm nation-less ass getting down to it in the studio. Speaking of Ye, his chick logged off of Myspace and attended the party. I still think Kanye and Fonz are a cuter couple though.


Rumor Control: Are Star And Al Headed To Divorce Court?

Say it ain't so! I give Star and Al a lot of shit but I would hate to see them seperate. Every since Rosie O' Donnell's name has been added to the mix there have been rumors that not only is Star about to be fired but Al is pissed! Maybe he can get a job as Aqualeo's manager. They have the perfect union in my opinion. He watches her purse and she keeps his tiarra collection free of dust.

Are Star Jones and husband Al Reynolds ready to call it a day? The official word from the couple is that all is well. But another source says they could be close to splitting, with Star considering a divorce lawyer.

The couple has been under scrutiny since their November 2004 wedding, which made headlines for the freebies they solicited from sponsors. And stories that Reynolds dated men before walking down the aisle led many to question whether it was a match made in heaven.

Jones' future as a co-host of "The View" also looks less than secure, especially since her nemesis Rosie O'Donnell was announced as a replacement for Meredith Vieira. Star was absent from her chair Friday, and "View:-eurs are noticing that she has been mentioning Al less on-air lately. A rep for Jones said: "This story is absolutely ridiculous and untrue. Star and Al are very committed to each other and their marriage."

Prince's God Told Him It Was A Great Idea



No one knew what to make of an e-mail from Prince that was addressed to various news outlets Wednesday morning containing only his picture and the words "First Corinthians 10:14." But as soon as the curtain rose on his surprise "American Idol" appearance Wednesday night, it all made perfect sense.

The biblical passage in First Corinthians 10:14. says: "Wherefore , my dearly beloved, flee from idolatry."

Prince made headlines earlier in the season after tabloids reported he was in talks to appear on "American Idol" as a singing coach and to possibly perform. The show's executive producer, Nigel Lythgoe, outright denied that meetings even took place between the two parties, as rumors had suggested. (continue)

Am I wrong for wanting to sign up for his mailing list now? I would love to see what other type of shit he sends out. Thank God he didn't go all Madonna on us.


Fresh Faces: Aqualeo

I'm still trying to figure out what the hell a Papoose is and here comes Aqualeo. Just for the record Aquemini > Aqualeo.

Aqualeo is an "Aquasiatic" rap group consisting of two members named Priceless and A.C. High. Seriously. You can check their Myspace profile for more information and listen to a couple of their songs.



I never thought I would live to see the day that someone covered a song from "Half Baked." Guess who is the genuis who decided to pick these two nut jobs up? Papa Knowles. They need to go to the upper room and sit at the right hand of the Father. This is so darksided that it makes Raven's demonic episode okay.

What feasible explanation can AC High give for looking like a black, fabulostic Colonel from KFC? That shit ain't right.



Imagine That!

Last night I went to see Lil' Wayne perform live. Every time I have seen him before in person has been from a distance. This time I was in the front row in the Stan trenches. I never realized how little that negro was before!

Hot damn. Shit got extremely ugly when he came out. Some girl passed the hell out like she was at a Bobby Brown concert. Anyway, it was a pretty good show. It took him forever and a day to come out but when he did the audience went crazy. Since I was front and center along with my girls he kept looking right at us. Fresh flattered? Ugh, no. Imagine that!



I wrote the rumors column that is the XXL's Hip Hop Soul. The rumors are old as hell in our world but oh well. I did that. I also write daily at xxlmag.com. Imagine that!

Does George Clinton Make Your Horny Baby?



George Clinton is the last person I would ever think of getting this gig. I wonder if he will do a strip tease on stage with a lei of weed plants around his neck.

Funk legend George Clinton is scheduled to perform at New York City's first-ever Exotic Erotic Ball and Expo, the "internationally acclaimed Celebration of Flesh, Fetish, and Freedom" to be held June 17 at New York City's Pier 94.

Also performing will be Tommy Lee and DJ Aero, and five-time Grammy winner Thomas Dolby performing his hit "She Blinded Me with Science."

In Case You Missed It: Prince's Performance On "American Idol"



Here's the video link to Mary J. singing on stage in a lactating apparatus. Thanks Crystal!



Okay Janet, Go Away Now

Michael K is right, photoshop awards indeed. When I become a famous singer/actress/anti-lace front wig activist/talk show host I am going to have someone on payroll whose main job is to photoshop my ass.


"I worked really hard, and I continue to work very hard," says Janet about her lean new look. "I have to give credit to my parents' genes I suppose, and just working with great people [that] make me look good, and nutrition and a great trainer."

Just six months ago, the svelte Janet was seen in published photos looking like she had packed on a few extra pounds, but the star explains that she gained weight specifically for a movie role. "I put on the pounds for a film I was to do with LEE DANIELS, the producer of 'Monster's Ball,' which a lot of people didn't know," Janet tells Kevin. "They wanted a full-figured woman. She's from the South, a waitress."
(continue)

While Janet is trying to lose weight Beyonce is busy packing it back on.

"It was so difficult, I was starving for six months but I made it through," she revealed at Cannes, where she and co-star Jamie Foxx attended the Dreamgirls premiere. "I fasted. I literally fasted. I drank a drink that gave me all the vitamins I needed and I didn't eat for 14 days and then I just drank protein shakes. It was hard, I felt weak, but I did it.

The article also says that Beyonce was a size 12 before slimming down to a size 8. Um, no? Not buying it. But you already know where the link to this story came from so take it with a grain of salt. Don't trust them new niggas over there . . .

"American Idol" Season 5 Is Ovah!



I think I am the only person in the world who didn't watch "American Idol" tonight. I forgot that shit was still around until a couple of days ago. Congrats Taylor Hicks, now you can finally reveal your real age. I'm so sorry but his ass doesn't look 29 years old to me.


From what I've been hearing Mary J. Blige was acting a damn fool again. Say it ain't so! I don't see how she was able to strut around on stage with those platforms on. She looks like an extra from "Car Wash." I'm kinda pissed that I missed Prince's fabulostic performance. Just look at him. I bet all three of them are the same height without heels. Dionne Warwick and Al Jarreau also came out. Toni Braxton looks like she was out there trying to shake her shimmy. I'm not mad at Shug Avery though, she still looks good.
