The Daily Buzz For July 25



Are You Team Griffin or Team Simpson? Fox TV plans Family Guy/Simpson Collaboration

“DOH!”  The two will appear in a crossover episode featuring your Quahog and Springfield favorites! Brought to you by producers at 20th Century Fox “Giggedy, Giggedy!!”
The two shows are among some of the longest running series on this network. The Simpsons is on season 24 and Family Guy is on season 11.
The family I’ve enjoyed since their start back in the Tracey Ullman Show days (Whoo, I just dated myself. Don’t remember that? Google it, I’ll wait) in an episode with the equally hilarious former residents of Petoria?? This is an easy sell & something I must see. Whether you are a fan of Quahog or Springfield (or if you are like me & enjoy both) there’s sure to be something for all of us to enjoy! I can only imagine what creators Matt Groening and Seth MacFarlane are going to come up with.

Mark your calendars this amazing collaboration is scheduled for Fall 2014.

Lady Gaga never ceases to amaze anyone. Ever since she came out she’s been raising the brows of many with her antics. So, seeing the controversial artist on the cover of V Magazine COMPLETELY NAKED didn’t come as a surprise me at the least. The singer uses one hand to cover up her lady parts. The pics were shot by famed photographers Inez and Vindooh, the rest of the photo shoot will be unveiled when the magazine hits newsstands next month.

Peep the pic….
I see she is coming back STRONG!!!...I GUESS!

Teddy Riley PRESENTS BS2!
Celebnmusic247 recently was at a concert where Teddy Riley has re-ignited Blackstreet into a new group BS2 with the amazing talents of J-Stylz, Tony Tyler, Lenny Harold, Dave Hollister and himself, Teddy Riley.
They were on site of the performance and blogger ‘Tank’ gave this report: The renaissance of Blackstreet was headed by one of the greatest writer/producers of all times, Mr. Teddy Riley. He now heads his newest project BS2 with These five men appear more like brothers, feeding, encouraging, loving and inspiring one another. You can feel the love and respect not only for what they do but for each other, for the music and most importantly for the audience.

One of the many things that made BS2′s performance amazing to me was it was like watching a new group. In spite of being founded in 1991 Teddy Riley Talks BS2 and Growing in Music-715-2BS2 has a fresh, new energized presence yet they kept the beauty, passion and integrity of the music. There was no need for fireworks or half naked girls on stage only to giggle, on the contrary, these men had commanded the stage. They move with the grace of iconic groups such as, The Temptations & the Five Tops but with the energy that rivals any act today.

I watched the audience being worked into frenzy as BS2 performed one hit song after another. Women and men transported back to the moments of “passion” evoked and inspired by songs like “Before I Let You Go” and “Baby Be Mine“… I even had to force myself back to the job at hand once or twice during their amazing performance. When Teddy began performing songs he had written for artist ranging from Bobby Brown to Michael Jackson that simply brought the house DOWN!!!
BS2 is not a “remember when group,” they are a powerful, impact full of fun and romantic distinction. They guys in the group even handed out roses to the ladies. BS2 is a group that will make you remember, relive and reignite your R&B spark. While their music filtrated through the Nokia all you wanted to do was live in the moment and dance. Last night was an event, an experience that I hope you too will have the chance to enjoy.

Well folks be on the lookout of BS2 coming to a city near you!



Nicki Minaj Goes Pink: Shoots Commercial For New Fragrance
Nicki Minaj rocks a draped pink gown, and big blonde hair with pink highlights, on the set of a commercial for her new fragrance. “Fragrance commercial shoot with the legendary David LaChapelle 1st look #dramatic,” she tweeted.

Nicki recently released Pink Friday Limited Edition, and is now prepping to roll out another fragrance. Not offering much information on the new scent, when speaking on it in an interview, she did say that the Barbz will be impressed with the bottle; “When the Barbz see that bottle—gag century. It’s going to be ca-razy.”

Catch a close-up snap of her look below..
Cute



Halle Berry shows off her new wedding ring at LAX: pretty or not cute at all?
Well, we can all have a collective sigh of relief. Halle Berry and Olivier Martinez did not keep Nahla in France for very long, because these are photos of Halle and Olivier arriving back in LA with Nahla. Which is good news. Gabriel Aubry must have given Halle permission to take Nahla out of the country for the wedding and that’s it. Also good news? The paparazzi didn’t swarm Halle, Olivier and Nahla as much as they usually do, so there wasn’t some huge catastrophe when they arrived at LAX.
Meanwhile, Halle is still carrying beautifully, and she is “glowing”. I think that’s a cheap way to describe a pregnant lady, but there it is. Halle looks beautiful and glowing from her pregnancy and her new marriage. Godspeed, Olivier. And don’t come crying to us when the whole thing falls apart.
Meanwhile, Halle was showing off her new wedding band at the airport – I’m including a close-up of the band and her engagement ring, which Olivier designed with a friend, apparently. I actually love emeralds so, so much, but I have a real hate-on for this ring. It looks like a man’s pinkie ring rather than an engagement ring – so much yellow gold, such a masculine setting. And that wedding band looks like it was molded out of Play-Doh.



OJ Simpson 'has only THREE MONTHS to live because of an extreme case of diabetes'
According to The Daily Mail: OJ Simpson has only three months to live as a result of his extreme case of diabetes and unhealthy lifestyle behind bars.
The combination of 'sky high' blood pressure, a vastly expanding waistline and a lack of physical activity as he serves a 33-year prison sentence have doctors concerned about his health.
Simpson's lawyer Ozzie Fumo told MailOnline that he has not heard anything about his clients poor health.
'As far as I know his health is very good, he was doing just fine. I just spoke to him on Saturday,' Mr Fumo said.
'I spent a lot of time with him preparing for the retrial motion and he never once mentioned diabetes.

'We discussed health issues, we had meals together, and he seemed fine,' Mr Fumo told MailOnline.
The first warning flags were raised when Simpson appeared at a hearing in May when the former running-back looked much heavier than he ever had before.
Now The National Enquirer claims that he weighs 300 pounds and prison doctors have encouraged him to exercise and eat more healthfully to combat the high blood pressure and diabetes.
Instead, he is listlessly passing the days by laying in bed in his prison cell and only getting up to get sugar-filled snacks.
'OJ's doctors have told him he could be dead in as little as three months because of his out-of-control blood sugar and blood pressure,' an unidentified prison friend told The Enquirer.
'But OJ doesn't care. He knows he's never going to get out of prison, so he refuses to take care of himself.'
The 33-years he faces following a 2008 robbery are not helping motivate Simpson, as he is now making plans for his death.
He allegedly confessed to murdering his ex-wife Nicole Brown and her friend Ron Goldman in 1994 and told a prison friend that he will write a confession letter that will be sent- and then publicly shared- after he dies.
Mr Fumo countered this claim, saying that in his months of interactions with Simpson he has 'never once disparaged the Goldmans'.
'In his mind, they're creditors along with his children Sydney and Justin,' Mr Fumo said.
The friends cited by The Enquirer said the double slaying came in a moment of rage that he regrets to this day because he still loves Nicole.
He also reportedly tasked his few close friends with finding ways to hide his remaining $2million in off-shore accounts so that his son and daughter can access it after his death.
O.J. Simpson's 43-year-old daughter (right) testified at his May hearing and he is reportedly storing his money in off-shore accounts so she and his son can have it when he dies
In doing so, he would be in direct violation with the 1997 court ruling that said he owes Goldman's relatives $21million after he was found at fault in a wrongful death civil suit.
He has become even more withdrawn and oddly behaved- reportedly singing The Wizard of Oz's 'If I Only Had a Brain' to himself- since the retrial hearing in May.
'He ignores people when they talk to him and often wanders around in a glassy-eyed trance. His family is being supportive but he's not paying attention to them either,' one of OJ's friends told The Enquirer.
Calls to Simpson's lawyers were not immediately returned.



 NYC Mayoral Candidates spent  the night in Public Housing with Families!
A handful of top Democratic candidates for mayor of New York City spent the night at a public housing project in Harlem as part of an unusual campaign event organized by a community group.
Five candidates committed to spending the night with host families at the big Lincoln Houses complex, where many residents complain about shabby conditions. Participants include Christine Quinn, Anthony Weiner, Bill de Blasio, William Thompson Jr. and John Liu.
An organizer of the event said the candidates showed up Saturday evening and got a tour of the complex before going to their hosts’ homes.
The candidates were scheduled to hold a news conference early Sunday to discuss their experiences.
About 3,100 residents live in the complex, completed in 1948.



Detroit Teen Fired After Tweeting Thanks To God For "The Bullet That Killed Trayvon Martin"
Apparently a Detroit teen had no idea that her tweet could affect her  job. Now she knows.
The 17-year-old was hired at Livonia, Mich.'s Biggby Coffee franchise but hadn't yet started. She reportedly sent out a tweet from her now-deleted account about Trayvon Martin in response to George Zimmerman's not guilty verdict. "I want to thank god…for the bullet that killed Trayvon Martin."
Some friends gave positive responses, but little did she know her comments were passed around the Twitterverse. Several people tweeted slams to Biggby Coffee for hiring a "racist." The company also received angry comments on its Facebook page, and 500 calls placed to the franchise.
The employee was reportedly suspended and then fired, all before her first day on the job. Location owner Bob Perry said he had "no knowledge whatsoever" of the tweet when he hired the teen. Perry also called her words "horrific."
Biggby released a statement condemning her actions:

BIGGBY COFFEE does not in any way condone the statements made by the employee at one of its franchise locations. ... The thoughts and opinions of BIGGBY COFFEE franchise employees do not reflect the thoughts and opinions of BIGGBY COFFEE. BIGGBY COFFEE's cultural values have been and continue to be:  B-Happy, Have fun, Make friends, Love people, Drink great coffee

In 2007 Biggby changed its name from Beaner Coffee amid criticism over the term commonly known as a racial epithet used against Mexicans.



Ralo Wonder Shuts Down The Porsha Stewart Cheating Rumors!
Ralo released a statement that addresses these allegations, check it out below:

“First thing first…
“Me Porsha never had an Intimate relationship let’s clear that up first!! It was all business no pleasure. Second I didn’t release them fake text messages!! What happened was we started a record label and we were looking for a female artist so after looking at a bunch of people we chose Porsha once we found out she supposedly could sing!! I Chose Her!!

I looked at it as, she’s already on a hit show and she’s a pretty girl so that’s half the Work!! She already had a good platform to launch from!! All the people I had helping me with the label didn’t believe in her!! Any way I put together a half million-dollar budget and put my partner on the project Steve Lucas who is a 20 year vet and had managed JODECI, MARY, PUFF, AKON etc.!!

He got in contact with her and met with her, he offered her a deal and she was interested. I never wanted to meet her!! He was going back and forth with her and when we would be going over all the projects we were doing, I would ask him what was the status on the situation!! He would be unsure because it was hard to deal with her because of how Kordell was controlling her!! Sometimes she would make it to meetings sometimes she wouldn’t!! So I told Steve don’t worry about it and that the marriage is not going to last!! So just get her signed and as soon as they announce on TV they’re getting a divorce, be ready to put a record out and capitalize off all the media and it would be a hit over night!!

So some time went past!! Steve called me one day and said Ralo you were right they just announce that there getting a divorce!! I said reach out to her and see if she’s ok!! When he reached out to her she said she was O.K.!! She just needed a couple of things!! Some Money and her own place!! Her Advance on her contract was 50K, so that was some money for her right there and then. We hooked her up with a realty agent to find her a place with a budget of 5K a month, then she found something for 10K so Steve said hold on I have to ask the CEO of the Label Wonderboy!! So I said OK!! So she said who is that 9Wonderboy). She then went out with the realty Agent who had mentioned my name to her and that’s how she got introduce to me!! The next morning we spoke, and after we spoke I told her to stay in contact with Steve and she went Crazy!! She said NO, NOOO!! NO!!!!! I want to be in contact with you, so I said OK!! So we had everything set up for her and now it was time to hit the studio to see what she can do. She said OK!! I said I see you when you come to New York to record!! She said OK!! I’m sooo excited I can’t wait!! I asked her if she practiced the song we sent her and she said yeah!! I love it so much it made my MOM cry etc… We get to New York and she doesn’t want to record!! Set the studio time up twice she didn’t want to do it!! She was like oh I just need to rest my voice and clear my head!! I said OK, but she wanted to do all kinds of other stuff. Then we get back to Atlanta and she doesn’t want to record again but she wants to do all this other stuff, do on vacations and look at houses, so I said something isn’t right!!

Then somebody real close to her told us Porsha couldn’t really sing. I was like nah we have a demo on her she sounds good. They said OK you ready to go in the Studio!! She said wait, hold on, let me call somebody. So I said to myself this is Some BS!! This Girl doesn’t want to sing and I basically put the situation on hold until we knew if she could really sing and that was it!!

Afterwards, every time I would bring up going to the Studio she would change the subject and she started spiraling out of Control. She would say “the Media is everywhere I can’t take it, I want to got here, I want to go there, I want to go here” She started acting like she was Beyonce getting divorced from Jay Z.

I talked to her and calmed her down!! The next day she said thanks for everything and beating me back into shape. We kept in touch and every week and she would say she’s going to be ready to record but she never was. After a while the plan we had to break the first song for her lingered on to long and we felt the window had closed and that was it!!

There are no hard feelings, and I certainly wish Porsha the best in all her endeavors!!”

Hmm, Chroniclers do you believe his statement.



Rihanna Rocks Animal Print Jumpsuit For London Shopping Trip
After debuting the new gray hair she’s rockin’ on Instagram, Rihanna was spotted out in London with the tresses styled in a wavy ‘do. 
She was snapped as she left her hotel, on the way to the Roberto Cavalli store for some shopping. RiRi stepped out in a red leopard print Adidas Originals x Opening Ceremony cutout jumpsuit, which she paired with black sneakers, as headed for her private session.
A crowd of fans gathered in front of the hotel as she made her way out, and she took a minute to stop and give one a hug.


Air Jordan 4 - "Green Glow"
Jordan brand has a knack for dropping highly coveted sneakers during the summer and the Air Jordan 4 "Green Glow" is no exception.
Its name may mislead some who might assume that the sneaker will literally glow. Unfortunately it does not. The name is actually derived from its carefully placed accents along the eyelets, outsole, and branding. The back heel, the midsole, and the inner of the shoe are all black. The outer sole is white and helps tie the colors together and creates a solid balance to the colorway.
To many sneaker heads this is a big departure from the more traditional color schemes they're used to, much like the recently released Air Jordan 4 "Toro Bravo". One would assume this colorway is intended for a different demographic or just to diversify their already extensive sneaker catalog
The Air Jordan 4 “Green Glow” will hit retailers on August 17th with a price tag of $160. Give me your thoughts on the sneaker

Janet Jackson's husband is accused of firing female employee after she reported being raped and was then thrown in prison on Dubai business trip
Janet Jackson's husband, Wissam Al Mana, has been accused of firing a female employee from his interior design firm after she reported being raped in Dubai and was then thrown in prison for having extramarital sex.
A spokesman for the Qatari billionaire's company, Al Mana Interiors, strongly denied the claims from Marte Deborah Dalelv, saying instead its representatives were 'by her side' throughout the 'ordeal' and that the firm was forced to let her go after she 'declined to have positive and constructive discussions about her employment status.'
The Norwegian 24-year-old was sentenced to 16 months in prison this week for having sex outside of marriage after she was raped by a co-worker in March during a business trip to Dubai.

Dalelv reported the sexual assault to police but instead of helping her they arrested her and took her passport away. Her rapist was sentenced to three months less prison time than she got.
According to Verdens Gang, three weeks after she reported the crime Dalelv was suspended from her job. Three weeks after that she got a termination letter, signed off by Al Mana himself.
'Further to the suspension letter notified to you on 20th March 2013, we hereby inform you that you employment with Al Mana Interiors W.L.L. is terminated for misconduct and breach of your employment duties, effective immediately,' the letter reads. Your employment agreement is terminat(ed) due to your unacceptable and improper behavior during your last business trip in Dubai, which has resulted in your arrest by the Police Authorities in UAE.'
Al Mana Interiors claimed it was forced to let Dalelv go after she 'declined to have positive and constructive discussions about her employment status' and not because of the rape.
'We are sympathetic to Marte Dalelv during this very difficult situation,' the statement reads.
'Al Mana Interiors has repeatedly offered Marte support and company representatives were by her side throughout the initial investigation and police interviews, and spent days at both the police station and the prosecutor's office to help win her release.
'Company representatives have been supportive and in communication with Marte throughout her ordeal. Only when Ms. Dalelv declined to have positive and constructive discussions about her employment status, and ceased communication with her employer, was the company forced to end our relationship with her. The decision had nothing to do with the rape allegation, and unfortunately neither Ms. Dalelv nor her attorneys have chosen to contact the company to discuss her employment status.
'We continue to be open to helping Ms. Dalelv and extending her resources during the Dubai legal process. We are hopeful that we can resume a positive discussion about the assistance she needs during this difficult time.'
Dalelv reported the sexual assault in March, after which she had to spend days in a cell before she was allowed to use a telephone.
With the help of family members, the Norwegian consulate was able to negotiate a release and she has been living under the protection of the Norwegian Sailor's Church until her sentencing this week.
'I received the harshest sentence for sex outside marriage, harshest sentence for drinking alcohol and on top of that I was found guilty of perjury,' she told Verdens Gang.
'It is a terrible situation she is in,' said Gisle Meling, the priest at the Norwegian Sailor's Church.
'We are very surprised and had hoped it would go another way, but we live in a country which has a justice system which draws its conclusions with the help of Sharia law.'
Dalelv was sentenced to one year and four months in jail but as Norway has no extradition treaty with Dubai, her future is uncertain.
Earlier this year Australian Alicia Gali, 27, spoke of how she was thrown in a Dubai jail for eight months after she reported a rape.
 Starwood when her drink was spiked in the staff bar.
She awoke to find that three colleagues had raped her, but when she went to a hospital for help, they turned her over to the police and she was charged with illicit sex outside marriage.
Under UAE law, rapists can only be convicted if either the perpetrator confesses or if four adult Muslim males witness the crime.
Under the Sharia-influenced laws, sex before marriage is completely forbidden and an unmarried couple holding hands in public can be jailed.
Foreigners jailed in Dubai are deported immediately after completing their sentences.



AND FINALLY FROM “THE CRAZY PEOPLE SHOPPING AT WALMART” FILES
‘WHAT HAPPENED HERE?’
While I’m sure there is some crazy stupid story behind this arrest, I really don’t care. What I do care about is how it has implanted this fantasy in my mind where there are secret Walmart Police staff hidden in the building waiting to tackle and arrest those dressed inappropriately.



HAVE A GREAT DAY!!!
EFREM
