Twitter won’t let Chris Brown be great. Recently, a fake twitter account was created that sent Breezy’s PR team into over-drive. The fake twitter account, tweeted a not-so-nice message to 66-year-old singer Cher (real name Cherilyn Sarkisian). The message said“That damn GRANNY b*tch CHER needs to keep her mouth SHUTTTT about her opinion against obama !!! smh she needs a beating ***”Ouch, right? Cher fans went into full over-drive, bombarding Chris’ twitter mentions defending her. 

And Chris quickly hoped on twitter, to clarify that the message was not from him. He wrote:

Chad Ochocinco Released by New England Patriots
NFL Player Chad Ochocinco is no longer a member of the New England Patriots, according to the NFL Network and ESPN.
Ochocinco took to Twitter Thursday afternoon to thank Patriots fans.
“Thoroughly enjoyed the oppurtunity to play for the “Patriot” organization… fans were f—— wicked awesome, I wish all of you the best…,” Ochocinco tweeted. The Patriots pushed trade conversations with other teams up to near the end of the day’s transaction deadline at 4 p.m. But despite conversations with other teams, there was not enough interest to make a deal.
Ochocinco’s biggest issue in New England was not his ability; it had more to do with his ability to pick up the Patriots playbook, which the veteran wide receiver struggled to do.
Earlier on Thursday, there had been speculation that this was Ochocinco’s last day with the Patriots because the wide receiver left the training facility before the team’s OTA.
However, Ochocinco said later in the day he had not been released and simply was attending an eye doctor’s appointment.
Ochocinco, who was paid almost $6 million last season, earlier this year agreed to restructure his contract for 2012. He lowered his base salary to $925,000 from the $3 million he had been scheduled to earn, thus ensuring himself a roster spot — for the short term.
Meanwhile, Ocho’s reality star fiance, Evelyn Lozada tweeted:
Aww baby you got cut @ochocinco I got your back! I’m the bread winner now, which means I make the rules! #Boom
Cute.

Lisa Bonet looks far from her 44 years as she joins her elegant daughter Zoe Kravitz on the red-carpet
She may be her mother and 21 years older than her, but Lisa Bonet looked more like her daughter Zoe Kravitz's sister last night.
The Cosby Show star looked nowhere near her 44 years as she attended a Chanel event celebrating designer Karl Lagerfeld’s photo book The Little Black Jacket: Chanel’s Classic Revisited.
Mother and daughter walked the red-carpet and held hands, and it was hard to tell them apart with their striking similar features.
And while Zoe was the epitome of elegance in a Chanel black and white leather strapless dress paired with a super chic new short haircut, mum Lisa went for more grungy attire consisting of a white lace dress, crochet shawl and clunky black men's boots.
Zoe, 23, clearly has had a change of heart regarding her fashion choices.
Only last month the X-Men: First Class actress told Nylon Magazine: 'I feel like everyone thinks that everyone should look the same – clean cut'
'If I go to a party and my hair’s messy and my shirt’s ripped or whatever, it’s like, ‘She’s a crackhead.’ I’m like, ‘Do I have to look like a f—— perfect Barbie doll?’
'The cool thing about fashion is that if you do it right, it’s an art form and it’s a way to express yourself,' Zoe added.
Also going for a grungy vibe at the event like her mother, was Zoe's boyfriend and Gossip Girl actor Penn Badgley, who was sporting a beard and a dirty pair of shoes that were missing the laces.

The pair, who have been dating since July of last year, have been linked to fellow actors in the past, with Penn dating his Gossip Girl co-star Blake Lively and Zoe enjoying a romance with fellow X-Men: First Class actor Michael Fassbender.

Paris Jackson tells Oprah she didn't understand why father Michael made her wear a mask in public
Her late father Michael Jackson would frequently make his children wear an array of masks in a bid to keep herself and brothers Prince Michael and Prince Michael II out of the prying eye of the paparazzi lens.
Now the King Of Pop's daughter Paris has opened up about the disguises, describing that period of time in her life as being 'confusing.'

But in Oprah's Next Chapter interview, which aired on Sunday on OWN, the 14-year-old also says she now understands what her father's intention was. 'I was really confused,' the teen tells Winfrey.
'I didn't get why I was wearing a mask. But I understand it now – why my dad would want our faces to be covered. When we went out without him we wouldn't be recognized.'
She said that the mask-wearing helped her and her brothers live a childhood, which she describes as 'normal'.
'We had a normal childhood – including trips to the children's arcade and restaurant Chuck E. Cheese's,' she explains to the veteran talk show host.
While Michael was in the public eye from such a young age, Paris says her father wanted his own children to enjoy their youth.
'He told us that when he was younger he didn't really have a childhood,' says Paris.
'He would always be stuck in the studio singing while the kids were out playing. He wanted us to have that.'
'Chuck E. Cheese's and Toys R Us were our favorite places to go.'
Paris opens her heart to chat show queen Winfrey to reveal the pain over her father's death, saying it is still as raw as ever.
In a sneak preview released on the internet, she is also seen explaining how still finds the death of the King of Pop hard to cope with.

She is already set to star in the upcoming fantasy movie Lundon's Bridge and the Three Keys.
In a recent interview, her aunt Janet Jackson talked about her reservations about her niece's acting career.
She said: 'We've spoken about the fact that you're only a child once.
'I think there's a time for everything, and now is not the time [to act in films].
'I told her I thought she should enjoy being a kid, possibly go to college--or not--but wait till she turns 18.

'She's a very tough, smart girl. But it's a cut-throat industry. I wouldn't want my child to do it.'

Gospel Singer Le’Andria Johnson Covers Precious Times Magazine, Talks About Pregnancy
Le’Andria Johnson, Season 3 winner of ‘Sunday’s Best’ and GRAMMY Award recipient, is pregnant with her fourth child, and covers the Spring 2012 Precious Times magazines magazine. I love Le’Andria’s honesty and transparency. While she acknowledges that she does not condone her situation, she believes that she’s pregnant and having her baby for a reason.
She said that a lot of people in the Gospel industry have abortions and sweep it under the rug, but she plans on being the spokesperson for the next woman who comes across a situation like hers. “I’m not condoning it, but I believe we should help one another and support one another.”.
I know a lot of people are wondering about who the father of the baby is. She said that the father is a musician and he said that he would be there for her. It’s his first child, so he is excited. She said that she is not going to get married because she is pregnant, but she will be marrying soon.
Check out part of the interview below:
LJ: I’m the leper to most, but the artists who have contacted me in support are just like me. They realize that we’re not perfect. Many have thanked me for being transparent. I hope that women across this nation will focus on who they are and not what man thinks they are.

D. B. Woodside was Glad to See Stacey Dash Go
Here's something you don't see everyday. An unguarded celebrity saying exactly what's on their mind.
When Stacey Dash left VH1 drama Single Ladies it was under a cloud of suspicion that she was being difficult
Single Ladies star D.B. Woodside confirms the rumors and tells Atlanta's V103 that he was glad when Stacey left the show...
D.B. admits,
"I don’t want to cause any trouble, but I, for one, am happy she’s gone. It’s a much better place to be. It’s a much better set. I’m just going to keep it straight. I’m just going to keep it real. I am happy that she’s not there anymore."
"When I first heard that Stacey was leaving, I went out and celebrated and had some drinks."


T.I., Young Jeezy, & Ne-Yo were spotted spending some quality time at Vanquish in Atlanta.
The Fellas was out partying in Atlanta T.I. and Ne-Yo opted for a more relaxed look, Jeezy kept it a lil’ dapper with a crisp white button down and some specs.
Not sure who the blonde is that’s standing close to Jeezy in a few shots, but we’ll discuss the ashy pink lipstick that seems to be taking over you ladies’ lips at a later date.


If given a choice, which one of these guys would you marry, who would you f*ck, and who needs to depart this earth a lil’ sooner than later? Remember that all parties involved must be used once!

Rumor Has It :Tyra Banks Is Dating Her New 24-Year-Old Top Model Judge
The last time we checked, rumors were swirling that 38-year-old Tyra Banks had bounced back from ending her long-term relationship with banker boyfriend (John Utendahl) and linked up with rapper Drake.
We saw photos of the two “having yogurt” (such an LA ‘thing’) at an amusement park. Both shot down rumors and never addressed their outing together ‘head-on’ per se, but now rumors have linked Tyra to another fair-skinned gentleman. 
Radar Online reports that Tyra has been dating a 24-year-old man named Robert Evans. Who the eff is that? Glad you asked. He’s a British boxer-turned model, and will be a judge on the upcoming America’s Next Top Model season. Allegedly, “witnesses” saw the two lookin’ quite cozy, at a Los Angeles hotel:
“He put his arm around her as they walked to the elevator…He put his arm around her as they walked to the elevator,”

If the rumors are true, would this technically make Tyra a cougar?


Muhammad Ali & Grandson in Louis Vuitton Ad Campaign
Former Heavyweight champion Muhammad Ali and his grandson Curtis Conway,3, are featured in Louis Vuitton’s latest ad campaign:

The ad, which will run in magazines and newspapers in 60 countries, seems to capture Mr. Ali in private reverie. Photographed last month by Annie Leibovitz in his Phoenix backyard, Mr. Ali watches with pleasure as a young boy stands with fists gloved, feet splayed, chest puffed. Though not identified in the ad, the child is his grandson, Curtis Muhammad Conway Jr. A $1,525 Louis Vuitton “Keepall 50″ bag lies by Mr. Ali’s left foot….

“I can confirm that I ended the business relationship with Azealia last month on very amicable terms. She’s incredibly talented and I wish her nothing short of an amazing career.”
Banks had teamed up with Coldplay manager David Holmes. It was even said that the two were involved romantically, but both rumors have been shut down; Banks remains without representation.
