Kanye West’s A.P.C. Collection Sells Out
Kanye West is not only making waves on the charts, but also in the fashion world. Moments after going on sale, his men’s clothing collection with French brand A.P.C. sold out.
After it launched last Sunday at 10 a.m. Paris time, the nine-piece capsule collection crashed the site and was soon unavailable.
The pricey line consists of two pairs of jeans priced at $265, long and short-sleeved hoodies ($250-280), and “Hip-Hop T-shirt” that costs $120.
Kanye worked closely with A.P.C. designer Jean Touitou on the collection, which took two years to create. “Over the months, we kept hanging out and finally came up with the idea of doing a small capsule collection of clothes together,” said Touitou. “‘Small’ meaning that this capsule collection consists of a jean, a hoodie and a T-shirt. Those are precious to me and to Kanye too, because it took time and thoughts to get there.”
According to People, A.P.C. has restocked some items and is accepting pre-orders for other sold-out items through today at 1 p.m.

LeBron & Savannah's Wedding Invitations Leak!
After a week of Vegas & Anguilla Bachelorette vacays with her bridesmaids and besties, Savannah Brinson is back home with her almosthubby, 2-time NBA champ LeBron James. He posted the above cute pic of the twosome saying:
Finally got my babe back away from Rump Shaker, C More Butts and Mandingo!! Smdh. Hahaha. #QueenVsBacheloretteIsOver #ImHating #LookAtMyFaceandLookAtHers #NawHappySheHadABallWithHerGirls #BachelorWeekIsNext
And one of their wedding guests, who we're sure they thought was their friend, leaked the wedding invite. The San Diego nuptials will go down September 14th (as we knew from the Save The Dates). But the intricate gold & white invite purposely lacks a place & time for the ceremony on Saturday, the welcome BBQ on Friday & the farewell brunch:
And the kicker.....guests have to call a top secret number, then receive a call back with the further details.
We're still pretty sure pics will leak sooner than they think....
Say It Ain’t So!!!: Did Nicole Murphy Bend It Over For Rick Ross?
Guess it ain’t no fun if the homies can’t have none?!?
Rumor has it that Rick Ross smashed Nicole Murphy with his belly and all!!! The two were seen getting a little too comfortable with each other at the Cannes Festival in May and one thing led to the bed and the bed led too…
According to Jacky Jasper of HSK:: She’s still got Michael Strahan locked down, but Nicole Murphy hasn’t seemed to change her drug-fuelled whoring ways! Don’t believe me.. Ask William ‘Prick Ross’ Roberts, who sources say hit that!
The pair were spotted all up on each other at Cannes Film Festival, back in May. It’s just one of the reported many “booze and ecstasy-fueled” smash sessions insiders say Michael Strahan knows all about, yet turns a blind eye to. Know why? Because we’re told Nicole is a pro with a strapped-on dildo. Don’t believe me.. Ask Eddie Murphy.
Here’s the drop:
“Nicole is a real party girl. She gets fucked up a lot, Rick Ross took advantage and smashed. Nicole likes girls too. That’s why she also hooked up with Puffy and Cassie for a threesome, at this year’s Cannes Film Festival!”
ohhhhhhhhhh… they went there!!!
Nicole’s looks like she’s the “TURN UP” of the party whether it’s in the Cannes or your Mama’s basement. She gets to the fun! But… if it’s true, out of everyone in the entertainment scene… did it really have to be Rick Ross?!? What turn you on the most: The pill in your drink and UOENO or was it the belly with the hidden pork chop under the breast?!?

Ohio Kidnapping Hero Charles Ramsey: ‘I’m Broke Bro’
*Two months after his headline-making assist in the rescue of three Cleveland women held captive for a decade, Charles Ramsey says he is now broke and homeless.
“I’m broke, bro,” Ramsey told the Daily Mail. “That’s the truth.”
Ramsey said he was fired from his job working in a kitchen because customers kept coming in to shake his hand.
The Mail reports that Ramsey was “shamed” out of his former home next to alleged kidnapper Ariel Castro by his neighbors “who claim he exaggerated his role in the rescue of the girls.”
But the Mail also reports that Ramsey has made around $50,000 over the last two months largely from “corporate speaking engagements” and money raised by private individuals as a reward for helping the kidnapping victims.
Nevertheless, “Money goes fast if you have bills,” he told the Mail.
Ramsey famously told Anderson Cooper he didn’t want any money offered by the FBI for the return of Gina DeJesus, one of the women who was freed.
Ramsey was also offered free burgers for life from McDonalds and is the subject of tattoos and even an action figure.

Angela Stanton Secures New Counsel
Real Housewives of Atltanta's Phaedra Parks' defamation lawsuit against Angela Stanton and Vibe Magazine hit a speed bump last week after Angela's lawyer withdrew from the case after a disagreement on how it should be handled
Angela has secured another lawyer and the case is proceeding as planned...
Angela Stanton's new attorney James Radford made the announcement on his website,
I am proud to be representing Angela Stanton in defending against spurious claims of defamation surrounding her 2012 book, Lies of a Real Housewife.Lies is a detailed account of Ms. Stanton’s relationship with Phaedra Parks, a notable Atlanta attorney and star of the Bravo series “Real Housewives of Atlanta.” In September 2012, Ms. Parks filed a suit alleging that the contents of Ms. Stanton’s book were untrue and defamatory. Ms. Stanton, through attorney Eddie Beal, filed an Answer, asserting, among other things, the defense of truth. As the trial date approaches (currently on the calendar for July 18), Ms. Stanton sought additional legal assistance, leading to my involvement. We look forward to proving the defense of truth in court.
I had followed Ms. Stanton’s story since it broke last year. I watched videos on her website, in which she detailed her story. It struck me as being detailed and credible. When I learned about the defamation case, I was left with the impression that Ms. Stanton was being railroaded by an opponent with far superior resources. That is why I am proud to help. All people deserve access to our justice system, regardless of their economic circumstances. I have no personal disrespect for Ms. Parks. She is a well-regarded member of the same legal community as I am. That being said, people’s backgrounds are complex. And in a country and culture governed by the First Amendment, we are all subject to the free speech rights of others, particularly with respect to information that is factually true.
Jenny McCarthy Named As New ‘The View’ Co-host!
Barbara Walters announced Monday morning that television personality and actress Jenny McCarthy will be joining ‘The View’ as co-host.
With the departure of Elizabeth Hasselbeck, Joy Bauer and Walters own announcing she’ll be bowing out in 2014 it was only a matter of time before we learned of who’ll be taking their place.
On her official blog on Monday McCartney writes, “YUP, I’M DOING ‘THE VIEW’! When word got out that Joy [Behar] was leaving ‘The View,’ I knew that the timing of my desire and her departure might be serendipitous for me….I’m beyond thrilled … I look forward to helping make hot topics a little bit hotter, and showing my mom that my interrupting skills have finally paid off.”
On what Jenny Mac can bring to the table? Walters declares, “Jenny brings us intelligence as well as warmth and humor. She can be serious and outrageous. She has connected with our audience and offers a fresh point of view. Jenny will be a great addition to the show as we usher in an exciting new chapter for The View.”
If you’ve followed Jenny on any of her previous works, you’ll know, she can bring the laughs. She also has the energy of a 3 year old.
We actually think Walters may have gotten this one right. She’ll join Whoopi Goldberg and Sherri Shepherd on the couch in the next several months.
What are your thoughts, will Jenny make a great co-host?

LAHH ATL's Rasheeda & Kirk Frost JOIN Cynthia Bailey To Host HHW Style Experience With Erica, Peter, Shay & More
"LAHH ATL" star Rasheeda proudly displayed her baby bump as she walked the red carpet for The Hip Hop Weekly (HHW) Style Experience. Looks like she's due any day now. At least we hope..
She kept it sexy in a short pink long side hem dress inhand hosted the event on behalf of Hip Hop Weekly and The Cobb Show for an evening highlighting next season’s hottest streetwear looks.
Despite their marital differences, which we've been watching unfold on camera, Rasheeda's husband, Kirk Frost, joined her as event host.
Though they didn't pose for pics together, you'll recall that the couple spoke to us at the 2013 BET Awards and revealed that they're still very much "together" in terms of the "business" they've built. As far as their marriage goes, we guess we'll have to see how that plays out during the season finale of LAHH ATL.
"RHOA" star Cynthia Bailey, who's dealing with an as-yet-unrevealed medical condition, served as the event's third host...in her Timbs.
Cynthia's husband Peter Thomas, who co-authored Carry-On Baggage: Our Nonstop Flight with her, didn't play favorites in the "LAHH ATL" cheating scandal, as he was spotted posing for pics with both Rasheeda and Kirk.
In the audience, LAHH ATL stars Erica Dixon and Che Mack posed together. Those tattoos though.....
And across the room......Erica's LAHH ATL enemy Shay Johnson was spotted.
"Married To Medicine'"s Quad Webb was also spotted taking in the fashion show.
Fun times!

Tyrese Announces Retirement As A Solo Artist With ‘Black Rose’ Album!
Tyrese Gibson has just announced ‘Black Rose’ will be his final solo project. Although the singer has gone on to become a blockbuster actor in films like ‘Baby Boy’ and the ‘Transformers’ and “The Fast & Furious” movie franchises, it was music that gave him his start in the entertainment industry.
Here’s what the singer posted on his official Twitter and Instagram profiles.
So why leave? Perhaps the singer thinks it is just time for something new. Although he will still manage and serve as mentor to artists under his own label, Voltron Recordz, he will no longer release music as Tyrese the solo artist.
Black Ty has however teamed up with fellow singers, Tank and Ginuwine to form R&B group ‘TGT’. That would be Tyrese, Ginuwine and Tank in case you were still wondering. The trio have actually been touring the states in their Three Kings tour, giving the ladies that R&B sound from three handsome men, we’re sure the ladies are delighted.
Here are the men posing in one of their promo shoots for their tour.
Also, here’s one of the firt artworks for Ty’s upcoming and final solo project. We look forward to hearing it.
We’re sure Tyrese will go on to do some great things in his acting career. We also wouldn’t rule out a musical comeback but as for now, Tyrese, the solo act is retiring. CK readers, what are your thoughts. Should Ty retire as a solo act?
AND FINALLY FROM “THE CRAZY PEOPLE SHOPPING AT WALMART” FILES
