Miami Heats NBA Championship Ring Ceremony!
Tuesday evening, the Miami Heat received their tricked out 2012 NBA Championship ring. Teaming up with leading ring designer Jostens for the creation, we’ve got the details on the fancy personalized ring.
Each ring includes symbols of the HEAT championship legacy and is made of 14K white and yellow gold, with 219 diamonds (46 custom princess cut) totaling 10.8 carats, three custom onyx stones, and weighs in at 115 grams.
The top features the Larry O’Brien NBA Championship Trophy in 14-karat yellow gold, featuring one round, half carat cut diamond set in the basketball of the trophy, while the Heat logo sits atop the trophy with 31 round brilliant cut diamonds.
The words “WORLD” and “CHAMPIONS” frame the top of the ring. ”FAMILY” is inscribed below the two trophies. The HEAT and NBA logos are positioned to the right of the trophies.
The other side features the individual’s name and the year 2012. Below the name is the ALL IN Team Championship Trophy. On the base of the trophy are 16 bars in yellow gold that represent each win during the playoffs. Surrounding the onyx trophy is a circle created with the numbers of the 15 players who made up the 2012 championship team. The inside of the ring reads: ”FORGED IN THE FIRE BETWEEN A HAMMER AND ANVIL”. Way too much info for you? Of course it is.
And afterwards! their girlfriends and wives took to twitter and instagram to show off their new jewelry.
Adrienne Bosh tweeted a photo of her ring with the caption:
A man on a journey…Always Growing, Always Fighting,Always Working,Always with a pure heart.I Love this man xoxo....Adrienne and Chris Bosh
Savannah tweeted:
Kiss the ring!

Chris and Karrueche Party While Rihanna Toils Away at the Studio
Chris Brown continues to juggle his women and parties with Karruche while Rihanna is at work.
Chris Brown fuels rumours he’s back in the arms of Karrueche Tran – after the pair attended the same Halloween party.
It had been reported that Brown had ditched Tran after reuniting with ex-girlfriend Rihanna.
If that’s the case, the R&B singer could find himself in hot water with the superstar when she finds out he’s been partying with Tran.
Brown turned up at the GreyStone Manor Halloween bash sporting ghoulish face paint, a baseball jersey, black jeans and trainers.
Tran opted for a more glamorous look, donning a stunning oriental red dress.
In a bid to guard herself from all the attention, she chatted on her mobile phone as she left the swanky shindig.
The duo arrived and left in separate vehicles but both were in jovial spirits.
Their joint presence adds another strange twist to the Brown-Rihanna-Tran love triangle.
Last week, Brown and Tran were spotted leaving the singer’s Los Angeles
Stacey for Romney VS LisaRaye for Obama
There was a huge fuss when Stacey Dash posted a photo of herself in a red bathing suit on Twitter, stating she was voting for Mitt Romney during the 2013 Presidential election. Even Vivica Foxx had a few choice words for Dash.
Now Lisa Raye has taken a similar route to show her support for Obama’s re-election saying “I Got Obama’s Back” while posing topless on a teacher’s desk in a new photo campaign. Do you think Vivica would have anything to say about Lisa Raye?
Now if that tit-for-tat wasn’t enough, Stacey Dash, who has already cast her vote early, was recently photoed with VP candidate, Paul Ryan. “Fighting The Good Fight”, she tweeted.
We'll see Hon! You still haven't said anything about their policies!

Evelyn Lozada Wants No Contact Order Against Chad
Despite Evelyn’s decision … she does NOT want a reunion with
Hemsley, best known for his 11 seasons on the CBS sitcom “The Jeffersons,” left behind an estate of approximately $50,000. He was not married and had no children. According to Fox News, Hemsley left his estate to Flora Enchinton Bernal, his “self-proclaimed business partner and live-in best friend.” There is a will attesting to this. However, a man named Richard Thornton came forward after Hemsley’s death, claiming to be his brother. Thornton
“His will and the probate were found seven days after he died. No one reached out to me, my mother, my family or any (person with a) relationship to Sherman Sherman
The judge is expected to make a final ruling on October 31.
RHOA’s Kandi Burruss Accused of Cheating Miss Lawrence Out of Song Royalties
A week before the new season of the Real Housewives of Atlanta airs and the drama has already started. Sunday evening, Bravo aired a special called “Hairstylists Tell All”, narrated by Miss Lawrence and Derek J. The show gave some behind-the-scenes insight about past episodes of the popular show. To give you a backstory, both men were guest regulars on the show. Derek J is/was Kim Zolciak’s hairstylist, while Miss Lawrence was good friends with former cast member Sheree Whitfield. During last season, Miss Lawrence unveiled that he was trying to launch a singing career. On one particular episode, we even see footage of he and Kandi recording a song called ‘Closet Freak’. Check it out.
So what’s the issue? On Sunday night’s special episode, Miss Lawrence alluded that he was not properly compensated for the song. He also noted that because of the incident with Kandi, he’s not a fan of doing business with friends. After the episode aired, Kandi took to twitter, responding to his comments. She wrote:
Closet Freak didnt sell hardly any copies.There was nothing left after paying the producer & recouping what i paid 4 studio time & mix fees.
Ouch. Anywho, the new season airs next week.

Gangsta Disciples Has Words For Rick Ross ***WARNING****

Oh Ricky Ross you in trouble Boyee!
Is Kobe
Is Kobe
In the last three seasons or so has James really established himself as the top player in the game, confirming it with a magnificent last season during which he earned every conceivable accolade, but above all a championship.
But it is a single title, one, which makes such lofty prospecting of Lebron James confusing when he has not even bypassed Kobe Bryant.
To this point in his brilliant career, James trails Bryant in game and accomplishment, so how is it that he is the next best thing to Jordan
This is not to minimize the remarkable skill set James has displayed. He, indeed, has played better than anyone in the world in the past two seasons, improving his game exponentially each summer. But before he can pass Jordan
Just three years ago, all the talk was how Bryant was the game’s best player. At the same time, many pundits wondered aloud if he would be Jordan Jordan
Not only that, but many of the same high-profile people leading the discussion of James passing Jordan — Magic Johnson, Charles Barkley, Phil Jackson — are the same people who ridiculed James for bolting Cleveland to team with superstar Dwyane Wade and all-star Chris Bosh. Remember that?
James had a season for the ages — league MVP, NBA championship, NBA Finals MVP and Olympic gold medal. But that one season does not push him pass Bryant’s five NBA championships. How can it? Why is the criteria for James’s place in history different from Bryant’s, especially when Bryant has been a remarkable player in every facet of the game, including winning?
As a winner? Bryant has five championships, James one. That criteria cannot be underplayed. In a very real way, James has to surpass Magic Johnson before he can catch up to Kobe Bryant before any serious discussion can begin about surpassing Michael Jordan.
So tell me who do you think, is James or Bryant or neither one?

Cissy will allow Bobbi Kristina to receive her 20 Million….A Trainwreck waiting happen!
Bobbi Kristina was set to get an estimated $20 million in three separate payments. She would receive 10% when she turns 21 ($2 mil), just under 20% at age 25 ($4 mil) and the remainder when she turns 30 ($16 mil). The case has been dismissed due to an agreement between Bobbi and Cissy. The original play of Whitney’s payout of three payments was unchanged. Both parties are happy with the outcome.

Toni Braxton Accused of Fraudulently Transferring Money
From TMZ

Lady GaGa Slams Calvin Harris
Full story below…
Ever outspoken, Harris -who produced Rihanna‘s megahit ‘We Found Love’ – recently went on record to state that he turned down working with a then-unknown GaGa due to being too busy and the fact that “didn’t really like the songs”.
The hitmaker, who is presently promoting new album ’18 Months’, recalled the episode saying:
“When Lady Gaga first came out, her name rang a bell, so I checked my emails – and it turns out that on January 1, 2008, I got an email asking to work with her.
I thought, ‘Lady Gaga, what sort of name is that?’ So I replied saying, ‘Nah, I’m not into that.’ Fast forward a year and she’s the biggest thing. But I don’t regret turning her down as I didn’t think the song I heard then was that good.”
It appears, however, that GaGa has a grossly different version of events. For, she took to Twitter moments ago saying…
Seems to be trendy lately to talk shit about “lady gaga” when your albums/singles drop. Y’all should live off your own hustle. #Ido

Music is mortal if it has no integrity behind it. I’m interested in making the immortal kind.
— Lady Gaga (@ladygaga) October 29, 2012
never even emailed you @calvinharris I guess it’s hard to believe I write + produce my music.cuz I’m a woman I don’t know about EDM right?

TKO, much?
Thunder Trades James Harden by a text. Really?
But why did Oklahoma
“I was actually at dinner with my family, just enjoying dinner, nice and quiet. Then, I got a text from my General Manager, Sam Presti. I called him and he told me that he loved me and that things just didn’t work out and that I was going to be coming to Houston Houston Houston
This kind of stuff happens all the time. A player finds out he’s getting traded on the news/twitter, or an owner finds out where his best player is headed in a 1-hour special on ESPN. Doesn’t anybody CALL anymore? (At least Harden called Presti after he got the text.)
Here’s Harden’s interview w/ Kelli Johnson this weekend. Harden says he was “stunned.”
WATCH:
After watching this I thought about how Lebron told Cleveland , how Dwight left Orlando
Is there a right way to say goodbye? And if so, what is it? Thoughts?
AND FINALLY FROM “THE CRAZY PEOPLE SHOPPING AT WALMART” FILES
‘You Scared?’
HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND EVERYBODY!!!!!!!!
