The Game And Tiffney Are Back For Season 2… For What?!?
Apparently Tiffney didn’t get enough of The Game playing her like a DUMMY the first time because she’s back for more…
That VH1 Check Must Be Amazing!!! VH1′s unlikely duo Tiffney Cambridge and Jayceon Taylor, better known as rapper “The Game,” are simultaneously brought together and torn apart by love in the newest season of “Marrying The Game.” In the months after Tiffney called off the wedding and moved out of their home, she has regained her independence but drama unfolds as she still longs for a normal relationship with Jayceon – but not until he is ready to leave rapper “The Game” behind and rededicate himself to his family and her.
Now that they are in a state of transition within their relationship, they must navigate the twists and turns of co-parenting their two children, Cali Dream (2 yrs old) and King Justice (6 yrs old). Find out if Tiffney and The Game can start a new life together or if the problems from the past are bound to follow them into the future…
Yup… just as we suspected! Tiffney is still trying to make life work with this fool when it is obvious that he has an agenda that doesn’t include her. We feel that she’s better off cashing those child support checks. Let someone else have the headache of dealing with The Game. He obviously wants to have hoes in different area codes and chicks that drive Honda Accords like Melissa Ford.
“Marrying The Game” Season 2 premieres Monday, August 5 at 9:30PM*… Will You Be Watching?!?
Snooki Hits the Gym with "Extra"
Showing off part of her workout routine, Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi joined "Extra" at Flatiron Flywheel in New York City
Sporting some blue leggings, a black tank top, and a baseball cap, the pint-sized reality star pedaled away on an exercise bike while chatting with A. J. Calloway.
Sharing a pre-workout pic with the host, the 25-year-old mother-of-one tweeted, " With my boo AJ" and "Thank you flywheel for the amazing work out!"
Recently, Snooks addressed her critics who complained about her weight loss, telling ABC News on Tuesday, "I enjoy working out, and being healthy and fit is important. I’m the size of a 5th grader, I’m supposed to be small. Accept it!”
FIRST PHOTO: Prince William And Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge DEBUT Their "Little Prince"
Prince William and Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge were seen leaving the hospital with their little prince today.
Prince William and Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge were seen leaving St. Mary's Hospital's Lindo Wing in London today, giving the world a first glimpse of their little prince.
Kate wore a baby-blue polka dot dress (similar to the dress Princess Diana wore when she left the hospital with Prince William) as she cradled her 8-pound, 6-ounce baby boy. After she handed the little prince off to the Duke of Cambridge, he said, "He's a big boy. He's quite heavy. We're still working on a name. We'll have that as soon as we can." He added, "He's got her looks, thankfully. And when asked about this experience, Kate said it was "very emotional."
Congrats to the Duke and Duchess....
Jersey Shore Residents Try to Block ‘Snooki & JWoww’ Season 3
Lawyers representing a group of Jersey Shore residents are attempting to block filming of the MTV reality show ‘Snooki & JWoww.’
A Berkeley Township council meeting Monday night got heated with people who blasted officials who gave the green light to Nicole ‘Snooki’ Polizzi and her sidekick Jenni ‘JWoww’ Farley to film season three of their MTV ‘Jersey Shore’ spin-off.
Several of the people who attended last night’s meeting voiced their opinion that they don’t want the reality stars to benefit from efforts to rebuild after Superstorm Sandy.
When Snooki and JWoww caught wind of the legal action to block production, they hit Twitter with a couple of messages for the haters:
Snooki and JWoww respond to haters
Snooki summed it up with this Instagram post: “Unbelievable how adults are trying to ban my son, fiance and I from enjoying our summer at the shore. Grow up, get over yourself and move on. This is not how we should be treating one another. Absolutely sick and very sad. I pray for you. There are much bigger things to worry about in life than trying to ban my family from your neighborhood.”
We tend to agree with the Snookster on this one. When non residents think of pre-storm-ravaged Jersey Shore, we can’t help but think of Nicole Polizzi and her band of party warriors. You?

Amanda Bynes Placed on 5150 Psychiatric Hold
Amanda Bynes placed on 5150 hold
Amanda Bynes was placed on an involuntary 5150 hold by police Monday night and will undergo psychiatric evaluation to determine her mental state.
A Ventura County Sheriff’s department spokesperson confirmed that the former child actress was involved in a residential disturbance in Thousand Oaks. A neighbor dialed 911 after witnessing Bynes setting a fire in the private driveway of an elderly woman.
Deputies responded and held the suspect on a 5150 welfare and institutions code. She can be detained against her will for up to 72 hours.
This is the second incident of bizarre behavior exhibited by the actress in recent days. She was reportedly trespassing at the same retirement community on July 10.
During that brief visit, she told staff that she was there to visit a relative but the worker refused her access because Bynes seemed drunk. The employee called a taxi for Amanda but she refused to be transported, claiming she had no money to pay for cab fare. It was at that point that the worker called police to report a case of trespassing.

LoLo Jones Knocks Out Girl in a Bar Fight
Say it ain't so, Lolo. U.S. track star Lolo Jones, and Aja Evans, were involved in a fight at a bar in Lake Placid , N.Y.

Jones raised eyebrows in the bobsledding community when she put a video on Vine complaining about the little money she received for a full season in the winter sport.
Former Olympic swimmer Amy Van Dyken mentioned the scuffle on Monday on her Fox Sports radio show, noting that Jones "knocked out" Carlino's stepdaughter.
Van Dyke also said that federation officials gathered and athletes and told them not to discuss the incident publicly. It is believed they are trying to keep it quiet because of the attention Jones brings to the sport.

Rita Ora dumps friendship with Cara Delevingne
The friendship between Rita Ora and model Cara Delevingne appears to have gone south just as Cara's friendship with Rita's rival Rihanna takes off.
Rita Ora and Cara Delevingne have fallen out after the 'RIP' hitmaker feared the supermodel was tarnishing her image.
The 'RIP' hitmaker has been forced to dump her former best friend in fear of tarnishing her image after Cara embarrassed her at DKNY's fashion party last month by snatching the microphone from her hands and grinding her from behind.
A source told the Daily Mirror newspaper: ''There's a lot of hurt on both sides but Rita's been working towards her singing career and carefully crafting her image for four years and it was all in danger of being a joke after that shabby performance.
''Rita's been advised to distance herself from the model.''
The pair sparked rumours that their friendship had hit the rocks when Cara refused to support Rita at London
Rita - who is currently dating DJ Calvin Harris - even hinted that the supermodel wasn't a real friend. Speaking in this month's GQ, she said: ''To me, I have my friends who I've known my whole life, and I can count them on one hand. They're people I went to school with. Everyone else I meet from that point on, if they happen to become a friend, that's incredible - come and join the family - but if not...''

Fanny is spending her days in the gym, being a mom to two kiddies, and promoting her Side Effects Of You music. And so far, it's keeping her life drama free. Now, she's got a new gig as the first guest star in the Broadway production of After Midnight.
After working it out in The Color Purple on Broadway back in '07, Fanny will be one of 25 singers and dancers to star in the jazzy musical production. Broadway.com describes it in full:
Conceived by Jack Viertel, After Midnight is an evocative new musical that tackles the sexy, smoky glamour of the Jazz Age, set in the heyday of Duke Ellington’s years at Harlem ’s Cotton Club. The ever-changing list of stars is reflective of the Cotton Club’s weekly rotation of guests during its “Celebrity Nights,” which included the likes of Lena Horne, Judy Garland, George Gershwin, Billie Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald.
Sounds right up her alley. She will perform from the beginning of previews on October 18 through February 9, 2014, and will be the major headliner for the official opening on November 3. Congrats Fanny
