Khloe Kardashian Is Ready To Be A Single Mom – She Is Done With Lamar
Life & Style Magazine has come out with a cover story of Khloe Kardashian. In it according to the magazine, Khloe expressed the desire to continue trying for a baby with or without Lamar. Preferable without him, especially after another mistress came out with her story.   This was the final straw that forced her decision.  As many know, Khloe has been trying for a baby since day one of her marriage 4 years ago.

Lamar on the other hand, already has kids from a previous relationship. That could be why he never thought it would hurt Khloe the way it did, after one of his side pieces admitted to trying for a baby with Lamar. Either way the insensitive jerk in no longer needed in the baby making department.

She wants to have her baby herself and if that means new exercises and total diet overhaul then that’s what she’s going to do and I’m glad for her. She really wants a baby and despite earlier rumors it wasn’t because she wanted to compete with Lamar’s ex.  Some women don’t need to stay in unhappy relationship in order to raise a baby. (I’m looking at you Kourtney). They’re strong enough to do it on their own. If this whole cheating scandal did anything positive then it would be helping Khloe leave Lamar and stand on her own.

LeBron James Voted Most Popular NBA Player Over Kobe Bryant
According to the latest ESPN Sports Poll, for the first time in four years, the Miami Heat’s star player LeBron James is the most popular player in the NBA over Kobe Bryant of the Los Angeles Lakers.
Nearly 13 percent (12.9) of NBA fans said James was their favorite player this season, allowing him to best Kobe Bryant (12.5) for the first time since the 2008-09 season. That was the only other season when James passed the Los Angeles Lakers star, the top pick by fans for five of six years from 2006-07 to 2011-12.

After “The Decision,” James’ approval rating slipped drastically. For his final season in Cleveland, 15.6 percent of fans called him their favorite, according to the ESPN Sports Poll taken after the 2009-10 season. But for his first two years with the Heat, James was called fans’ favorite player by 10.2 and 9.4 percent, respectively.

James reportedly benefited from rises in votes from both the African American and younger demographics. Over 20 percent of African Americans voted James as their favorite player of the 2012-13 NBA season, compared to only 16 percent who voted for Kobe Bryant, and 18 percent of kids aged 12 – 17 said they preferred him, while only 15 percent preferred Bryant.

After James and Bryant, there was a significant drop off in voting, with Kevin Durant coming in third place with 3.6 of the votes, and after that was Derrick Rose (2.8 percent) and Dwyane Wade (2.6), rounding out the top five.

They seem to sticking it since both families are totally against them being together.
Ashlee, who used to be married to rocker Pete Wentz and they have a baby boy together, also had a romantic lunch date at Gemma before the event. The couple also dined at the east village restaurant and were spotted holding hands and kissing at their table, before hurrying to their car:

JoJo Sues Blackground Records for Release
JoJo wants out. After being stuck in limbo for seven years, the singer is suing Blackground Records for her release.
According to the New York Daily News, JoJo has filed a lawsuit against Da Family Records and Blackground Records claiming that under New York State law, minors cannot sign contracts that last more than seven years.

JoJo and her parents signed a contract in 2004 when she was 12. She argues that her contract was up in March 2011.
The 22-year-old has had a highly-publicized battle with her label and has not released a commercial album since 2006′s The High Road.
She recorded her third album and even shot the packaging, but the label would never give her a release date. “Blackground Records lost their distribution deal through Interscope, and if you can get the answer from them on why that happened, that would be a miracle,” JoJo told BuzzFeed in May.

In the meantime, she released two free mixtapes including 2010′s Can’t Take That Away From Me and 2012′s Agápē.

Her fans have written to Blackground and organized “Free JoJo” movements on Twitter to bring awareness to her label situation.

Rihanna Asks for Free Clothes After Suing Top Shop
Rihanna continued to ask for free clothes from Top Shop even after filing a lawsuit against them for unauthorized use of her image.
Rihanna's stylists continued to ask Topshop for clothes for the star despite the fact she is suing the retailer, a court heard today.
The singer claims the printed sleeveless white top - which hit the rails in Topshop last year - may have tarnished her reputation by leading her fans to believe the garment was 'genuine' Rihanna-approved merchandise.
But the retailer's lawyers today said that - while the singer is claiming the top blighted her image - it has not stopped her entourage contacting Topshop to ask for clothes for Rihanna half a dozen times since the lawsuit was launched.

A barrister at London's High Court today claimed Rihanna's representatives had asked Topshop for products for the singer on '10 recent occasions', and said her 'shopping habits' were testament to the retailer's own considerable reputation.
Of those 10 occasions, six came after Rihanna launched proceedings against Topshop, said Geoffrey Hobbs QC.
Mr Hobbs said: 'It is not in dispute that Rihanna is a celebrity (but) the reputation of Topshop is also material to the allegation of misrepresentation.
'Rihanna's own shopping habits provide compelling evidence of Topshop's reputation in fashion wear. (There are) 10 recent occasions on which her representatives have contacted Topshop asking for products for her to wear.
'We note that six of these requests post-date this dispute,' the barrister said.



Nick Cannon is the new host of ‘Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous’!
Do you remember Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous? It was a show that came on way before MTV Cribs! Nick Cannon has added another hosting gig to his already busy schedule. The multi-talented artist is signed on as the host of Style Network’s “Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous”, a reboot of the 1980s and ’90s series of the same title. Nick Cannon is a superhost! Watch out Ryan Seacreast.
“Nick’s comedic and down-to-earth perspective on the opulence of the wealthy makes him the ideal host as we reinvent this pop culture classic,” Salaam Coleman Smith, President, Style Media, says in a press release. “With Nick’s humorous insight, Style will give viewers front-row access to how today’s wealthy live, paying homage to the original ‘Lifestyles’ in a fresh, fun and irreverent way.”
“To be a part of Style’s re-imagination of this iconic show and follow in the footsteps of the legendary Robin Leach is a dream come true,” Cannon says of his new job. “Even though I am fortunate to have certain luxuries, sometimes, I am even amazed by what people with money have and do. I want to remind people that just because you might be rich and famous, it doesn’t mean you have to take yourself too seriously.”



Toni Braxton Loses Rights To 27 Songs
Toni Braxton loses the rights to 27 of her songs this week after ending her 12 year marriage to Keri Lewis.
R&B singer Toni Braxton no longer holds the rights to 27 of her songs including”You’re Making Me High,” “How Many Wars,” and “Always” after losing them in a bidding war.
The Six-time Grammy award winner filed for bankruptcy in 2010 claiming debts as high as $50 million, according to TMZ.
TMZ reports that after settling debts of $150,000 the singer was allowed to purchase the copyright to more than two dozen of her songs for $20,000 when put up for sale earlier this month.
However, Ross M. Klein doubled the singer’s offer and swept the music catalogue out from underneath her.
Klein can now profit from those tracks.
Braxton still owns the rights to her most famous hit, “Un-Break My Heart.”
This isn’t the first time the 45-year-old singer has run into trouble.
Braxton previously filed for bankruptcy in 1998 for debts of $3.9 million. This year, debtors tried to collect $754,000 in fees earned for overseas performances.



Cissy Houston Pens Open Letter to Bobbi Kristina
Back in February there were rumors that Bobbi Kristina Brown was vowing to cut off her grandmother Cissy Houston because she was furious over Cissy's decision to publish her memoir 'Remembering Whitney
Apparently Bobbi Kristina is still holding a grudge because Cissy has had to resort to sending an open letter to the media in a desperate bid to reach her grandchild...

Cissy Houston writes,
Dear Krissi
I love you. My heart is full. I don’t know where to begin.
You may think I don’t understand you and what you’re feeling but remember, Baby, I lost my mom when I was just a child. So, I do know some of the sadness and loneliness of your life since your mom passed away.
Although I know her spirit is with you always, I cry with you and for you. I grieve with you and for you … for all of the days and nights you need to tell her something or ask her advice or just hear her voice … and she’s not there. For all of the times when you need to put your head in her lap or feel her arms around you and she’s not there … For the good and happy times you want to share with her; for the fun and laughter you enjoyed together, but she’s not there … for every day and every night you just miss her … I know.
She was your mom and she was my child and Krissi, I loved her too, more than you might imagine. I know you were upset that I wrote my book, “Remembering Whitney," but I hope one day you’ll read it and understand that I just wanted to let the world see some of My Nippy—the sweet, friendly, loving little girl with the extraordinary beauty and boundless talent, who grew into the superstar and musical icon the world saw. I want people to know—fans and critics and ordinary people alike—Nippy was a whole person, and like all of us, she was good and bad AND she was my joy!
Krissi, all I want for you is your good health and your happiness. I want you to have a good life that you can be proud of. Do I want you to get married in the near future? No, I don’t. I think you’re too young and I wish you’d wait. But that’s because I’m Grandma. I’m supposed to worry about you. I’m supposed to wonder If Nick or ANY man is good enough for you, My Baby’s Baby. I’m not angry with Nick and I don’t think, nor did I ever say anything hurtful about him to anyone. I have NEVER publicly commented on your personal life and I don’t intend to. So in the future when you read or hear that Cissy Houston said this or Cissy Houston said that, be confident in the knowledge that it isn’t true.
I try to believe that when your mother passed away the world decided that you belong to them as she did. I’m trying very hard to trust that people who make comments or offer their opinions about you are sincere in their desire for you to be happy. I can only hope they come to realize the best they can offer you is their prayers.
Krissi, as many years as I’ve lived and as many experiences as I’ve had I know I don’t have all of the answers. I do know this, Baby Girl: God’s got you and so do I.
With all my love,
Grandma
WOW!!!!



Pharrell & Mark McNairy Reconnect To Create BBC Bee Line's 2013 Fall/Holiday Collection
Super producer Pharrell and designer Mark McNairy take another shot at sartorial excellence with their Billionaire Boys Club collaboration: the Bee Line Fall/Holiday 2013 collection.
This strong assortment of clothing build on the fashion savvy duo's first attempt (of the same title) released last year.








Skateboard P and McNairy, both known for their styles, put their spin on essential menswear pieces like varsity jackets, denim, a bomber jacket, sports coat, and more.
The pair also had a noticeable affinity for plaid and various other prints this time around.
Bee Line happens to be the duo's second collaboration of the year; the first was BBC Black, due to release this fall.



DJ Traci Steele & DJ Babey Drew Cover Rolling Out Magazine
Traci Steele and DJ BabeyDrew have a reality show within a reality show that is the ultrapopular ”Love & Hip Hop Atlanta.” Their relationship, even though they’ve been broken up for seven years, resembles the weather in the Caribbean islands they are from. It can be beautiful and calm one moment, but then it can quickly mutate into a Category 5 hurricane the next.

And they are comfortable existing and thriving within that frenetic space. Heck, she brags that she almost shot him one time and actually did stab his tires. And he has no problem talking the number of women he has been involved with or ”popcorn microwavable b—–,” as she likes to refer to his subsequent girlfriends.
The two renowned DJs have added a lot of flavor to one of the most popular and addictive reality shows on television that was already overflowing with outsized and volatile personalities.
First of all, listening to them is like sitting in on a tennis match. Your head and eyes constantly jerk back and forth because of their propensity for darting in out of each other’s conversations, finishing each other’s sentences, cutting each other off, and volleying insults and compliments with equal aplomb back and forth to each other. They constantly intercept one another’s thoughts and take it in the opposite direction. You would need a compass and a map to try to figure out where they are going to take the next question.
Even if you didn’t know the couple, it wouldn’t take long to figure out that the pair, despite their defunct relationship that produced a 7-year-old son, remain so close that they practically breathe the same air.

So when rolling out sat down for an interview with DJ BabeyDrew and DJ Traci Steele, we knew from the jump that this was not going to be a normal interview. But then again, Steele and Drew are not your ordinary pair.
So strap yourselves in and try to keep up, all right? And Get more HERE:



AND FINALLY FROM “THE CRAZY PEOPLE SHOPPING AT WALMART” FILES
‘The Bow Tie Killer’
You look like an evil villain to a little girl’s make believe tea party.
