Marsha Ambrosius: ‘I Am Not A Lesbian’
It looks as though Marsha Ambrosius alleged ‘coming out’ party ended before it had a chance to begin.
The other day, the ex-Floetry star had the internet buzzing after she released her new video for ‘F–K N Get Over It‘ that featured her about to get her freak on with a lover she was trying to move on from…. which happened to be a woman. Since the video was released on ‘National Coming Out Day’ [a random holiday], it was assumed that Marsha was attempting to make a statement about her sexuality, however she shut that down quickly.
She posted on her facebook:
Double standards! Any male artist can openly brag about how many groupies he gets! Can u imagine how many men AND women have come on to me??? Listen to my music! I tell it! Always! I am not a lesbian! I am straight! I will never say I haven’t fantasized or had sexually explicit dreams about women before! That would make me liar! I’ve been called a lesbian since I got into the entertainment business! You’re no one till someone calls you gay lol I’m so comfortable with myself, I’m not afraid to tell the story from all perspectives! I’ve done so from the very beginning! Ppl hear what they want to hear! I make you listen to what I feel!
BTW, if you missed the video!

The Truth Behind Wiz & Amber Rose Delayed Wedding
I’m sure you were wondering why Amber Rose and Wiz Khalifa delayed their wedding? Wiz sat down with XXL and revealed they pushed their wedding day back so their baby can be at the wedding:
“Nah, there’s no date set yet. But we’ll probably get licensed and married before the baby’s born, and do a wedding afterwards because it makes more sense for the baby to be in the wedding than for her to be pregnant,”
Amber chimed in with:
“Yeah, we definitely want our baby to be in our wedding pictures. And you know, being pregnant, I’m tired a lot,” the 28-year-old chimed in.
“So to have a whole wedding and planning it all out and the reception – I just don’t want to be sleeping when everybody’s partying at our wedding.”
Here’s What Really Happened Between Floyd Mayweather and 50 Cent
According to reports the REAL reason Floyd Mayweather stopped dealing with 50 Cent is because 50 tried to take advantage of Floyd while he was locked up...
From Fight Hype
When news about the formation of The Money Team [TMT] Promotions first broke back in July, we were led to believe that the company was created as a joint business venture between [Floyd Mayweather and 50 Cent].
However, FightHype.com has discovered that was not the case at all. What was once described as a "breath of fresh air" actually turned out to be an attempted coup by those once considered to be close to Mayweather.
Apparently, as [50 Cent and former Mayweather associate Tommy Summers ] spoke to fighters, they painted a picture that Mayweather was indeed on board, when in reality, he wasn't. The notion that Mayweather was involved is one of the reasons why IBF featherweight champion Billy Dib was quick to sign with TMT Promotions, only to later find out that the facts were misrepresented to him. There was also an attempt to move former WBA featherweight champion Celestino Caballero to TMT Promotions, despite the fact that he was already signed with Mayweather Promotions.
Sources have informed us that 50 Cent and Tommy Summers tried to take advantage of Mayweather's incarceration in an attempt to oust long-time adviser Al Haymon in hopes of gaining control of Mayweather's career, both in and out of the ring. With the help of the influential Haymon, Mayweather has built a brand that has made him the highest-paid athlete in all sports. Their working relationship has allowed him to shatter pay-per-view records and generate revenue like no other fighter has ever seen before. One would think that Mayweather's achievements speak volumes about his working relationship with Haymon and their ability to succeed. Apparently, 50 Cent and Tommy Summers didn't see it that way. Ultimately, greed may have been the single solitary factor that caused long-time friends to go their separate ways.
OOPS: Pilar Says Deion Sanders Lied In Court, Hasn’t Paid Child Support Since April
The very public divorce between Deion and Pilar Sanders, including their children continues. In an interview with Rumor Fix, Pilar claims that Deion has not paid child support since April for their three kids (he was ordered to pay $10,500, but says that's six times the amount required in the state of Texas). She also says that contrary to Deion's claims, he is not w/ or taking care of the couple's children 50% of the time.
“He doesn’t want the children to live in the lifestyle that they are used to — he hasn’t even purchased them new clothes for school. They are not there half the time. He’s lied to the court. My oldest son is with me 100 percent of the time. He’s old enough to see the BS. He’s sick of it. He can tweet all the pictures he wants of his kids, but the proof is in the way he’s living. I built a brand that’s darn near indestructible. Now I’m paying for it.”
The couple had been married for 14 years. No official response yet from Deion's camp.
OH WOW: Adam & Tamera Mowry-Housley LASH OUT At Twitter Bullies ATTACKING Her Political Beliefs
It all started as the very pregnant actress Tamera Mowry-Housley spoke on the 2012 Vice Presidential Debate and Rt'd a follower who said that it was hard to watch because of the candidates constantly interrupting each other. Well.....you would have thought that she pulled a Stacey Dash as folks on Twitter jumped ALL over her.
Folks on Twitter assumed that because Tamera's husband is White and works at FOX News, that it meant she was attacking Biden and voting for Mitt Romney...and they weren't happy. As hate tweets flowed in, Tamera tweeted:
Her husband Adam wasn't about to sit around and let her be attacked on Twitter so he jumped in the mix saying,
But this isn't the first time Tamera has been attacked regarding Adam as she revealed during a recent interview with ZAP 2 It. She said,
"There were certain Websites who were saying horrible things about the fact that we're an interracial couple. It's like, really? About that? it's 2012 -- at that time, it was 2011.
"We didn't even know the people. It was just a site that allows people to comment on a picture. ... More than one person was saying cruel things. So, we got it from both sides, and it's like, 'Oooh, that's weird.'"
But Tamera has been developing a thick skin when it comes to the critiques on her marriage. And she says she's had to deal with many outside opinions due to her hit reality show "Tia & Tamera." She said,
"Doing a reality show, you're open for the world to see. People are open to judge, and you're open to judging. As an actress, they're judging your talent; they're judging how you play your role. Whereas this, they're judging you as a human being. Fortunately, with our show, we have more positive than negative."
You can catch her and sister Tia when "Tia & Tamera" returns to the Style Network on Tuesday, Oct. 16. Also, she'll star in the Gospel Music Channel movie, "Christmas Angel," premiering Dec. 1.
