A$AP Rocky Has People Questioning His Sexuality,AGAIN!

A$AP Rocky is causing quite the stir with the internet and media alike with his questionable style of dress and hairdo's (as seen above). I, personally, could care less who anyone sleeps with or wants to sleep with so long as everybody is a consenting adult. If it doesn't affect my family or my money, we good. However, the masses are talking and it wouldn't be right if I didn't report on what's being said. So on that note, let's get into the story shall we?

According to various websites and media folk alike, A$AP's sexuality has been continuously been questioned and brought to everyone's attention. It actually started when he wore a dress on BET's "106 & Park". That picture is below:

Now, there's some footage that was released via HardKnock.TV of A$AP Rocky "allegedly" admitting to being gay. I will say the footage seems a little suspect as when A$AP is about to finish his sentence the footage cuts off and all you are left with is the audio of him saying he's gay which could mean someone was tinkering with this footage just to generate hits, but I digress!

However, if you're still interested in watching the footage then look below:

Does anyone else not see this footage might be suspect?

Are Shaq & Rocsi Diaz Dating?

Are Shaq & Rocsi Diaz dating? Sources say that Shaq and “Entertainment Tonight” co-host Rocsi Diaz were getting it in over the weekend in New Orleans.

According to the NY Post’s Page Six, Shaq attended a private party at the Hookah Lounge on Saturday night where he had his “complete attention” on Diaz. One witness told us, “Shaq and Rocsi were holding hands at this private party and at a private table. They looked like an odd couple, but they seemed really into each other.”

Question where is Hoopz ? I thought the two were still together.

Muhammad Ali’s Family Denies Reports He’s Near Death

Muhammad Ali’s family is denying reports that the legendary boxer is near death.

According to the Courier-Journal of Louisville, the family posted a photo on Twitter of Ali wearing a Baltimore Ravens jersey while watching the live telecast of the game at his Phoenix home Sunday night.

“He looks great,” family spokesman Bob Gunnell told newspaper. “He’s having a Super Bowl party.”

Reports that Ali is gravely ill were published over the weekend by two British newspapers — The Sun and The Daily Mail, which quoted Ali’s brother, Rahman Ali, as saying: “It could be months, it could be days. I don’t know if he’ll last the summer. He’s in God’s hands.”

Ali, 71, suffers from Parkinson’s disease. His archrival, Joe Frazier, whom Ali fought in three epic bouts, died in 2011.

So Is Justin Bieber Now Sippin' On That Lean?

Justin Bieber is out here trying to live. We already know the allegedly clean as a whistle Pop star likes to occasionally "chief" that green with his comrades. Now photos exist that show the singer sippin' on that sizzurp, word to Three 6 Mafia.

TMZ has taken a look at the photos and reports:

The photos show Justin, Lil Za and Lil Twist (we're told both of whom have smoked pot with Bieber) at a table rolling up blunts. Also on the table -- two sets of double cups (a known style of consuming sizzurp which was made popular by Lil Wayne).

In one of the photos, Bieber is drinking out of a double cup. Sources connected with Justin say he adamantly denies using the drug, but it's pretty obvious he smokes pot. In the pics, we don't see anyone present actually consuming the drug.

Bieber is getting pressure from some of his people who think he's basically a good kid ... but hanging out with Za, Twist and some other dudes are taking him down a bad road.

Yes, so now Lil Twist AND Lil Za are being blamed for the Beebs making his own decisions. Question, why does Bieber's security keep letting people snap pictures? Didn't they learn from last time?

Also, we're betting at least 90% of you had no idea who the hell Lil Za is, but Bieber clearly knows him since he can be found in the rapper's Instagram flicks. Seems like Za is a Texas native that runs with YMCMB's Lil Twist. Thus making him...Twist's hypeman...baggage handler? So many questions.

It may be time for Bieber to invest in better weed carriers. Or at least some that can exercise chill when there are drugs and a Pop star millions of little children want to mimic in the same vicinity. Also kids, drugs are bad for you.

Gabby girl keep your OBGYN on deck, #IJS

Adele's Father Desperate to Meet His Grandson

Adele's estranged father, who left when the singer was only 3 years old, is desperate to be part of his grandson's life.

Adele's estranged father is begging her to allow him to meet his newborn grandson. In an emotional new interview with the Daily Mail, Mark Evans says he's been completely cut out of his 24-year-old daughter's life.

"It's like I'm dead to her," Evans said. "I'm not interested in her celebrity status or her money, I just want my daughter back and I want to be a proper granddad to the little one."

The Grammy-winning singer's relationship with her father has been strained since he walked out on Adele and her mother, Penny Adkins, when she was just 3 years old. Though they worked on becoming closer over the years, they had a public falling out when Evans spoke about their rocky relationship to the press in 2011.

In a February 2012 interview with Vogue magazine, Adele said she would "spit" in her father's face if she ever saw him again. "He will never hear from me again. Because there is nothing that would upset me more than my dad being bribed by the press," she said. "It makes my blood boil . . . If I ever see him I will spit in his face."

Adele welcomed her first child, a baby boy, with boyfriend Simon Konecki, in October. Evans said he learned he was a grandfather from press reports about the birth.

"I want to do all the granddad stuff with him –- feed the ducks in park, skim pebbles in the sea, splash around in the surf," Evans said. "I just want normality. I want to be like any other granddad. I've got mates who I see with their grandchildren and I can't bear to watch. It shows me what I'm missing out on."

WOW!
