Kim Kardashian Is A ‘Homewrecker’ Says Kanye West’s Ex Amber Rose
Kim Kardashian has always insisted that she and Kanye West are just friends, but that may not be the truth after all!
In an exclusive interview with Star magazine, Kanye’s ex girlfriend, Amber Rose, revealed that the reason she and the singer split was because of the reality star’s devious cheating ways.
“Kim is one of the main reasons why me and Kanye are not together,” Amber exclusively told Star. “She’s a homewrecker!”
According to Amber, she was dating Kanye when he and Kim first hooked up -- and Kim was dating NFL star Reggie Bush!
“They were both cheating,” Amber, 28, said. “They were both cheating on me and Reggie with each other.”
Amber says it was Kim, 31, who instigated the whole affair by calling, texting and sending racy photos of herself to Kanye.
“She was sending pictures, and I was like, ‘Kim, just stop. Don’t be that person,’” but apparently Kim didn’t care enough to respond when Amber emailed her for an explanation.
“I thought at least she’d be woman enough to respond to me. She never responded.”
Amber slammed Kim for her cheating ways. “It’s very important that us women stick together and we don’t f**k each other over like that.”
However, Amber is current dating Wiz Khalifa, 24, and has credited Kim for helping her find true love.
“I want to thank her,” she said about Kim. “Because if she was never a homewrecker, then I never would have met Wiz, and I wouldn’t be as happy as I am now.”
To find out how Amber got her revenge and what she thinks about Kim and Kanye dating now, pick up the latest issue of Star magazine -- on newsstands now.

He IS the Father! Atlanta Falcons Player Roddy White Admits it..But said he ain’t paying ish!
Last month I revealed that Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Roddy White had been named in a paternity suit by a Georgia woman seeking to secure support for her then 4 month old son.
Welp… Roddy has answered the claims of the child’s mother, Stacey Hott, and has admitted that he IS, in fact, the father of her now 5-month-old baby boy!
Details…
According to TMZ, White filed legal documents in a Georgia family court acknowledging he DID father a child with a Georgia banker named Stacey Hott and says he’s willing to accept responsibility.
That’s great right? Well… there’s a catch.
The 30 year old Falcon’s player, who reportedly already has 3 other children, may have acknowledged paternity but he still hasn’t agreed to child support payments just yet.


In early December, Hott’s attorneys filed documents stating ‘[White] is a professional athlete capable of providing generous support for the minor child commensurate with his earnings.’

Just FYI… White signed a six-year/$50 Million dollar contract with the Atlanta Falcons back in 2009.
Hott also requested Roddy obtain a life insurance policy for the “benefit of the minor child.”
So far, White hasn’t agreed to any specific amount and if he and Hott fail to come to a settlement, it will be left to a judge to decide Roddy’s payments.
To be continued…

Beyonce Knowles Covers Glamour Paris February 2012
She’s on the verge of motherhood, and Beyoncé Knowles is looking fine on the cover of the February 2012 issue of Glamour Paris.
The “Bootylicious” babe was photographed by Michelangelo di Battista, and shows off her famous smile for all of her French fans.
As for her pregnancy eating regimen, Beyonce shared, “I’ve been really conscious [about food]. I’ve been trying my best not to lose control.”
 
Celebrity fitness pro Jillian Michaels says keeping watch over food is key to getting fit after giving birth. “You won’t need to lose baby weight if you don’t gain it. It takes about 55,000 calories to make a baby. This breaks down to about 200-300 extra calories a day.”

Awww Nick Cannon rush to Hospital with Kidney Failure!
Nick Cannon is suffering from mild kidney failure. And his wife Mariah tweeted a pic of him in a hospital bed getting nursed back to health. MiMi asked her followers for prayers this morning as her 31-year-old hubby recovers from a health scare in Aspen. She said:
Please pray for Nick as he's fighting to recover from a mild kidney failure. #mybraveman
And in the pic, MiMi is in her pajamas in Nick's hospital bed with him nursing him back to health. She also put a statement on her website about it explaining:
This is us in the hospital - role reversal; Last year it was me attached to the machines (after having dembabies) and Nick was there with me through it, and now here we are.
We're trying to be as festive as possible under the circumstances but please keep Nick in your thoughts because this is very painful. They tried to kick me out of the hospital but here I am pon de bed with Mr. C.
We're doing OK but we're "straaaaaanded in Aspen". #DramaticDivaPlace (I know, we could be in a lot worse places) but the truth is as long as we're together, we're OK.
I'm not trying to make light out of the situation because it's a serious moment that's very tough on all of us so please keep us and our family in your prayers. LYM.'

Nick was the jack of all trades in 2011 as he hosted his own radio morning show in L.A., hosted "America's Got Talent," performed his duties as Chair of Teen Nick, performed DJ gigs around the country, is Daddy to 2 brand new babies, and continued doing weekly stand-up around the country. Sounds like it's time for a break Nick. Get well soon!
The twosome spent the Holidays in Aspen with their twins Roc & Roe.

Usher Says Tameka's a Lying sack of sh*t!
Back in November Tameka Raymond fired the first shot in her war with Usher Raymond when she filed to strip Ush of joint custody of their sons after he cut off her Saks card [click here if you missed that]. Well Usher is not taking Tameka's mess lying down and filed to have her request denied...
From TMZ
Usher is firing back at his ex-wife -- insisting he's a good dad who deserves to see his kids ... and NEVER cancelled her Saks 5th Avenue credit card.

TMZ broke the story ... Tameka Raymond asked a Georgia court last month for full custody of their twokids -- claiming Usher has continually dropped the ball as a parent ... failing to get her permission to travel with their kids, hiring nannies without her approval ... the list goes on.
Tameka also claimed Usher callously closed her Saks 5th Avenue credit card -- and now she can't take advantage of the "special benefits" the card offers.
But Usher claims it's all BS -- filing his own response in the ongoing custody battle ... asking a judge to reject Tameka's request

Rihanna Parties Hard At LIV In Miami With DMX & Weezy
Rihanna rang in the new year at Diddy's big bash Saturday night in Miami. And she kept the party going Sunday night at LIV alongside Lil Wayne and DMX. She even hit the DJ booth. Pics and video inside...
 After a crazy night at Diddy's NYE bash, Rihanna tweeted she was recovering from a hangover (and also a line from The Throne's "No Church In the Wild") saying:
Sunglasses and Advil... Last night was mad real!
But obviously she got well just in time to party even harder the next night at LIV. She hit the turntables alongside DJ Irie.
 And partied with Weezy and DMX, who gave a mini concert from his Ruff Ryder days.
Fun times.

Don Cheadle Does a Take 2 on His Obama ‘Gangsta’ Comment
*Social media networking is getting too many people in trouble, including award-winning actor Don Cheadle.
After he told Jet Magazine that he doesn’t think the president has been ‘gangsta’ enough, his comments sent the blogosphere to a whole ‘nother level.
So of course he needed to clarify his ‘careless’ words. Here’s what he posted via TwitLonger.com:
“I realize that when speaking to reporters who are looking for the juiciest comments to print, a word like gangster in connection with a black president uttered by a black celebrity can almost be too much to resist,” the Oscar-nominated actor wrote. “I say this not in defense but to offer some perspective. I believe I used the word gangster and I meant it. But I wasn’t talking about pants sagging and forties and ‘hoes’ or any of that other nonsense and I find it hard to believe that that is what some people thought I was saying. I was talking about wish fulfillment; my own and my desire to witness something more than I had.”
He continued explaining that he was true blue to the President Obama’s 2008 campaign and will gladly support him in the coming election, however he has not seen the anticipated and promised changes he (Obama) afore preached about before he won the position.

DEION SANDERS SPEAKS ON DIVORCE DRAMA ON DALLAS’ K104 FM

Deion Sanders has finally broken his silence about the alleged divorce drama between himself and his soon-to-be ex-wife Pilar Sanders. In an interview with Dallas K104 FM, the former football player addressed the infidelity rumors, his daughter’s actions on Twitter (READ STORY), how life really is in their 13 bedroom, 10 bathroom estate and who is to blame for leaking all these supposedly untrue stories about their divorce:

ON HIS DAUGHTER, DEIONDRA’S RECENT TWITTER RANT:
“I apologize for my daughter. She loves her father. And she felt like I was being abused and misused and she lashed out, which she’s sorry for. She wanted to get a lot of things out of her that’s been inside of her. But it’s unfortunate that that really magnified the situation.”

ON WHETHER HE THINKS THERE’S TRUTH TO HIS DAUGHTER’S RANT:
“I don’t know and I don’t know. All I know is Pilar is not nothing. She’s a friend. I do not want the mother of my childrens – I don’t want her name slandered because she is the mother of my kids. So why would I want that? I’m not happy with everything that has come out, but it didn’t have to. We know who’s leaking this stuff.”

ON HOW IT IS NOW IN HIS HOUSEHOULD RIGHT NOW:
“The thing about it….Pilar and I are cool. I mean we’re cool. When I say cool, we’re living under the same roof. That’s true. First of all, I’m very calm. I’m not a yeller or screamer and I’m not even upset. It’s just another chapter in your life where you have to move on. And Pilar is cool too. And the home is large enough, but you gotta to understand we love the babies (their children). I love my babies and I’m a father. It’s cool until the situation is worked out…But I see her every morning. And I say, ‘What’s up?, What’s up, girl?’ It really is like that. That’s why you can’t believe everything (you hear).”

Deion also denied the alleged story of him getting caught cheating with a 19-year-old woman, claiming that the ordeal “was an extortion attempt” and he was not going to pay anyone off for such “ignorant” reports.
As far as stories of him having to buy Pilar a multi-million dollar home, Sanders deemed those false, too. He then went on to note that Pilar’s attorney is the one fueling the fire and drama behind their divorce. So Deion, you mean to tell me none of this mess is true? Yeah..okay… Listen to the entire interview above. What do you all think?

Former RHOA Lisa Wu & Ed Hartwell Divorce Final…
“They used to be everywhere… now they’re NEVER there.” According to the homie ATLien over at Straight from the A she is reporting that it is official that Lisa Wu and Ed marriage is over!
Last August, former NFL baller Ed Hartwell made it clear that he and wife Lisa Wu (formerly of The Real Housewives of Atlanta) were DONE… over… kaput… by notifying the world that they’d split up via his facebook page.
Well… it’s final. R.I.P. to the socialite couple formerly known as the Hartwells.
First Eric divorces Deshawn Snow… and now Ed divorces Lisa Wu… *sigh*
Is there a RHOA curse??
Court Papers cortesy of Straight from the A
And yes… Sharon Millette Hartwell is actually Lisa Wu’s real name. (whoodathunkit?)

At any rate, no one knows what actually happened between the two, who were rarely seen around town outside of each other’s company, but whatever it was… word on the curb is that Lisa did it.
Ed filed for divorce on August 24, 2011 and on October 7, 2011 a final judgment and decree had been entered… i.e. divorce finalized.
 The feisty “housewife” confronted me at Big Boi’s Halloween party a few months after I did that post, and I presumed she’d come to the celebration to specifically seek me out since she was the only one there not in costume and had never attended a Big Boi event in the past.
Long story short… Lisa blamed me for “creating a firestorm” by putting the info out there.
I knew they’d been separated since March or April of 2010, and said nothing until a reader inquired about Lisa being seen without her ring… in AUGUST! And by the time Lisa confronted me in OCTOBER, the divorce had been finalized.
Needless to say, I’m still at a loss as to what her beef was with me. I had absolutely nothing to do with Ed filing dem papers…. but I digress.
I know that divorce is hard… (hell, I’ve been through one!) and sometimes we hate the world for things we can’t control….Good Luck to the both of them.

Curtis is whining again!
After Tweeting all day New Year's Eve about how much he hates the record industry and threatening his label with releasing free music, 50 Cent reached the end of his rope last night and told his fans he doesn't think he'll be around much longer...


Well it was fun while it lasted Curtis!

RAPHAEL SAADIQ & ROCSI HIT MIAMI BEACH TOGETHER?
How random is this? TV personality Rocsi Diaz and singer-songwriter Raphael Saadiq were spotted on the sunny shores of a Miami, Florida beach on Monday (January 2). The two laid back and got their doses of vitamin D, while smiling and chatting.

 The duo was also spotted celebrating Tameka Foster-Raymond’s 40th birthday this past weekend with little Naviyd and Usher Raymond V in tow. Random looking couple and Rocsi is rumored to have a bad industry rep for dating married men…

Vancouver Canada Giving Out Free Crack Pipes
\
We all know the crack epidemic has long gone global, but Canada's Vancouver Eastside seems to be enabling their dope fiends.
The area also known as Vancouver's "Square Mile Of Vice" is home to the city's track which includes drug dealing, prostitution and homelessness... and peep this... houses the city's only residential Black community. The UK's Daily Mail reports that the city is now adopting a program to provide free crack pipes to its drug-addicted population in an effort to stop the spread of HIV and Hepatitis B and C.
The $60-thousand 8-month trial is being conducted by The Vancouver Coastal Health Harm Reduction program. 60,000 kits are expected to be distributed at 5 different locations.
 The Vancouver Coastal Health Harm Reduction program also states that since the city's heroin users already receive clean needles from the needle exchange program, they should try to create a safer inhalation program for those who are addicted to crack. They also hope to persuade users to enter into drug rehab programs since they'll have access to many of the addicts coming in to get free pipes as well as mouthpieces, filters, alcohol swabs, screens and push sticks.
The majority of users are males between the ages of 20 to 60 and Vancouver's Coastal Health Authority spokesperson Trudi Beutel says,

"It's about preventing more communicable diseases which land these people in hospital on a frequent basis and clog up emergency rooms."
There is some opposition though to the program as David Brener, director of the Drug Prevention Network of Canada, said,
"Programs like this ignore the problems of addiction. All this does is aid and abet. What we should do is put that same amount of money into treatment and prevention. Because treatment and prevention work."
What are your thoughts on this controversial topic? Is it enabling drug addicts or will these programs help to eventually detour them from drug use?

From the world of The Dream and Christina Milian
First up Christina
DON’T MISTAKE LOVE FOR LUST! She
Speaks On Divorce, Cheating, & More!
After keeping mum about her quickie marriage and subsequent divorce to The Dream, Christina Milian is finally ready to talk about what really happened between the couple. She recently sat down with Niecey Nash on her new web show, “Let’s Talk About Love”, and opened up about how sometimes even pretty girls get cheated on (that is certainly not news). Sounds like The Dream did not take his marriage vows very seriously SMH. Check out highlights and video of the interview after the cut
Christina told Niecey that a lot of men say, “How could anyone cheat on Christina…but it happens”.

On how people assume pretty girls can’t get cheated on
Beauty has nothing to do with it. I know I’m a really good wife. I know I’m a really good girlfriend. I know we’re suppose to take the blame for certain things but I gotta say I’m pretty good at all that stuff.
On what she learned from her experiences
Sometimes we are just so carried away with love and we might even mistake some things like lust for love.

*Niecey also spoke to an older gentleman that had been married for over forty years! He revealed that the secret to maintaining a long fulfilling relationship was learning how to say “sorry”. Sounds easy but it can be so hard. Watch the full interview HERE

And now....................................

The Dream THE DREAM TALKS DIVORCE, MAKING $15M OFF “UMBRELLA” & MORE W/ TIM WESTWOOD
I guess this week is the case of the exes. Not only did Christina Millian recently open up about her last marriage but her ex-husband did, too. In a recent inteview with English DJ/radio personality, Tim Westwood, Terius “The Dream” Nash talked about how Rihanna’s “Umbrella” single has earned him about $15M so far, how he doesn’t allow baby mama drama and what really caused his split from his former wife:
ON WHAT HAPPENED BETWEEN HIM AND CHRISTINA:
It wasn’t about moreso any particular thing that actually happened, even though that’s how the media made it out to be, it’s moreso about not being ready. On both sides. It was really rushed. It was one of those things you know you passionately go after. You still have to suffer the consequence if you’re not ready to really mentally commit to that.

Peep the entire interview below where The Dream also talks about finding his third and fourth wife in the UK, (in case the fourth one doesn’t work out.) LOL smh.

DIDDY DENIED ROSIE O’DONNELL ENTRANCE TO HIS PARTY AFTER HE INVITED HER!
Not everyone who was invited to Sean “Diddy” Combs’ New Year’s Eve party was allowed in the door. According to the “New York Post,” comedienne and talk show host Rosie O’Donnell didn’t make the cut even though she was personally invited to party with Diddy on Miami’s Star Island. Sources say security wouldn’t let Rosie inside because she was casually dressed and had six people with her. A rep for Diddy says the rap superstar was “completely unaware” of the fact that Rosie was denied entry, adding that he feels “terrible” about the incident. Other stars who celebrated New Year’s Eve with Diddy included Rihanna, Nelly, Vivica Fox, Robin Thicke and Paula Patton..OH WELLS!

AND FINALLY FROM “THE CRAZY PEOPLE SHOPPING AT WALMART” FILES
“Take A Seat”
Well, it appears you barely escaped the Death Star yourself by the seat of your pants. It’s safe now, you can fix that.

HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND ALL!!!
