The Daily Buzz for Sept 27



Chris Paul COVERS The October 2012 ISSUE Of "GQ" Magazine, 
Basketball superstar Chris Paul covers the latest issue of GQ (he's one of three covers starring Denzel Washington and Javier Bardem) where inside, he invites readers to his parents 30th wedding anniversary!  He talks up the importance of family (he and wife Jada just welcomed their second kiddie this summer) and having a great support system.  And also reveals how his height has played a large role in the man he has become.  Here are the highlights:

On the positive aspects of being short:
"I've been fortunate to be short my entire life. There's only one position I've ever had to play, and that's point guard. So I've always had to be that leader. And that was my job: you know, to talk."

On his negative outburst resulting from Lakers player Pau Gasol "sonning" him:
"We call that sonnin', Like when I take Li'l Chris to the bathroom, I'll walk with my hand on his head. That's my son. You know what I mean? I understand that Gasol is that tall, but don't do to me what I do to my son."

On being a people person:
"I'm a big-time people person, too. Like, I love people. I hate to be by myself." He repeats the phrase to himself, quieter each time: "I hate to be by myself. I hate to be by myself. I hate to be by myself."

On the importance of family:
"I realize that I'm not going to be doing interviews for the cover of GQ for the rest of my life, know what I mean? I'm on TV because I play basketball really well. But when all this is over with—say something crazy happens, God forbid, and I can't perform anymore. All those people that were in there? They're still gonna be there."

A Virginia State trooper arrived at the scene on Route 674 Chatham Lane in the Montross area just before midnight. Police say 19-year-old Tevin L. Jones was traveling eastbound on his 2006 Yamaha YZF-R1 when he ran off the right side of the road, striking a utility pole.

 “This is devastatingly sad, sad news. Torrey and his family are a close, special family, and our hearts and thoughts reach out to all of them. Our hearts ache today. We pray for Tevin, his mother, Torrey and the rest of the family. God bless Tevin.“
Police say alcohol was not a factor. The investigation into the accident continues.


Meek Mill Puts Baby Mama on Blast + Calls Her A Bum for Abusing Child Support

Ouch!


Well Tameka Raymond is taking to Entertainment Tonight to speak on her and Usher
Entertainment Tonight for her first tell-all interview. Usher took his interview to Oprah first. Tameka has been though a lot in the past few months. The child custody battle was a terrible verdict taking away her full-time rights of her children to Usher. Tameka is ready to have her say at her side of the story.
She will sit down with Entertainment Tonight, according to Rhymes with Snitch, in a three part interview. The interview will be no holds barred and part one will air on Monday, September 24th. In the interview she gives a tour of the home she shared with Usher, the loss of her son Kile and reveals information she believes could have swayed the child custody case in her favor had it come out in court.
Tameka is not giving up the fight because she knows she is the best fit for her children to be with over Usher. She is a wonderful mother and is currently appealing the ruling of primary custody of her two sons with Usher.


There’s a New Basketball Wife Coming…..THIS TIME A REAL ONE!
"Basketball Wives" (the original) is finally getting an actual wife.  Since the only two chicks who were actually married during their season--Meeka Claxton and Kenya Bell--are no longer a part of the show, and Royce Reed, Jennifer Williams & Kesha Nichols got the boot as well, it's time to fill the slots.
VH1 tapped Tasha Marbury (pictured above on her wedding day to Stephon) because she's actually married to an ex-NBAer and is already friends with some of the cast (pictured above with Evelyn).  Not as if that friendship thing mattered in previous seasons.  According to TMZ:

Sources close to the production tell us ... Tasha Marbury is in final talks to join the show -- a much needed cast replacement after Royce, Jennifer and Kesha were all axed.
Sources tell us, Tasha was previously asked to do season 1 of "BB Wives", except Stephon nixed the idea -- but now he lives in China part time playing for the Beijing Ducks ... and changed his tune.
By the way, Evelyn still hasn't been officially signed on for next season.  Looks like there could be almost a totally new cast.


Miss Phaedra Angela is still BRINGING IT FOR YOU!
Angela Stanton Pulls Out the Big Guns. Angela Stanton wrote a book called Lies of a Real Housewife claiming to expose her criminal ties to Real Housewives of Atlanta's Phaedra Parks 
Phaedra immediately dismissed the book and filed a defamation lawsuit against Angela's publisher [click here if you missed that], but that hasn't stopped Angela from lobbing even more outrageous accusations against Phaedra...
In the last few days Angela has ramped up her campaign against Phaedra and even accuses Phae of being a madame!  Check the tweets!
It’s about to get Southern ATLiens GHETTO up in here!


Tisha Campbell & Duane Martin Sued For BIG BUCKS For Mortgage
In other news, Duane Martin and his wife Tisha are catching some heat from the bank over their mortgage.  The couple owes over $400,000 after allegedly defaulting on a 2008 loan for their waterfront Lake Arrowhead, California home.
The loan was actually a second loan taken out by the couple from City National Bank.  They allegedly already defaulted on their first loan of over $700,000, taken out from Aurora Bank.  After the bank foreclose don the property and sold it at auction for $925,000, Aurora was paid back first and the remainder given to City National.
Their City National loan ballooned to over $630,000, and only $193,000 was used from the sale of the property to satisfy this amount.  Now, of course, City National wants the rest of their money.  So they are suing the couple.
The Martins' response?  Their rep says they shouldn't be "bullied" into paying the loan because the bank received $400 million in government subsidy back in 2009 to help in situations like these.  Plus, The Martins say they are being discriminated against.  Not sure how you're entitiled to get out of a loan scott-free simply because you can't pay for it, but OK.

TMZ says the rep would not explain HOW exactly they are being discriminated against.  Alrighty then.


Caribbean shots fired!  Rohan Calls Wyclef a DAMN LIAR!
Last week Wyclef Jean released an excerpt from his autobiography 'Purpose an Immigrant's Story' where he dropped the bomb that the Fugees broke up because Lauryn Hill lied to him about the paternity of her oldest son 
Wyclef says Lauryn lead him to believe he was the father when actually the father was Rohan Marley. Rohan says Wyclef is telling lies to sell his book...

From TMZ
Rohan, who dated Lauryn from '96 to 2011, and tells TMZ ... Wyclef "knew from jump that was my son from the day [Lauryn] was pregnant."
Rohan -- one of Bob Marley's sons, and a former football stud at U. of Miami -- does admit Lauryn and Wyclef screwed around before he came on the scene, but says he's confident it ended because Wyclef actually played matchmaker ... "They were definitely not messing around, or he would never have given me the okay."
He also says he and Lauryn were together in studio sessions night and day back then so there wouldn't even be time for her to have the alleged affair. 
Rohan added he thinks Wyclef is "just saying false things to get book headlines" -- and he has no plans to talk it out with 'Clef because "he knows he is fronting himself.
For his part, Wyclef tells TMZ, "There is no way that I would have shown up in the hospital in that circumstance to wait for a baby to be born if it was not mine. The idea of a memoir is to tell the truth. I know that often the truth hurts, but a lie hurts even more."

It's that time of the year again.  The gorgeous ones tuned out for Thursday night's New York City Ballet Fall Gala to celebrate the opening of the 2012-2013 NYC Ballet season.  And supermodel Iman just reminded everyone why pushing 60....may not be such a bad thing...
She's 57 and simply stunning.  Model Iman hit the red carpet for the opening night of the New York City Ballet last night at at the David H. Koch Theater in Lincoln Center.  And since Italian fashion designer Valentino was the honored designer of the evening, Iman rocked a classic black Valentino gown for the occasion.
Valentino also created exclusive costumes for the one-night-only performance that included pointe shoes in ruby red — his signature color.
Loves the hair jewelry.  Sarah Jessica Parker, Anne Hathaway and 800 others were front and center for the delicious event.  Gorgeousness indeed.


Bradley and Zoe…Back together again?
Their short-lived romance ended back in March and by the beginning of September they appeared awkward while promoting their new film The Words together.
But it seems Bradley Cooper and Zoe Saldana have decided to give it another go. 
The Hangover actor was seen leaving Zoe's house early on Saturday morning and after a brief time apart, the couple met up once more - this time for a romantic trip to the cinema.
The couple, who met on the set of The Words, dressed down for their Saturday night cinema trip.
Bradley, 37, wore a pair of casual grey trousers  with a navy blue bomber jacket and trainers. 
The 34-year-old, who didn't appear to be wearing any make up, wore her hair down and a pair of thick-rimmed glasses.
Bradley put a protective arm around his former co-star as they left the Archlight Dome Theater in West Hollywood, where they watched controversial film The Master about the founder of Scientology L.Ron Hubbard.
Earlier that morning, Bradley was seen leaving Zoe's house in Los Angeles after a sleepover. 
Zoe, who appeared to be in her gym clothes, was seen waving him off as she tucked into a bowl of cereal. 
Before meeting up for their evening date, Bradley managed to fit in a quick session of tennis.
The actor, who had changed into white shorts and a blue zip-up jacket,  was seen walking to his car alongside his instructor after finishing up some tennis practice in Studio City, California. 
At the beginning of September things seemed strained between the pair as they posed alongside each other at the premiere of The Words in Los Angeles.
Up until this point the couple, who were then estranged, managed to avoid appearing together. 
At the time it was speculated that the actress missed the New York and Philadelphia screening due to an arm injury and not in fact because she didn't want to see her former lover. 
According to reports, Bradley and Zoe split up after just three months together back in March after falling for each other on the set of the film, in which they play lovers.
'They're definitely not together,' an insider told Us Weekly magazine at the time.
