NFL Suing M.I.A.
The NFL is suing rapper M.I.A. for making an obscene gesture at Superbowl XLVI.
The league demands $1.5 million from the rapper-singer and a public apology, but her lawyer says "she is going to go public with an explanation of how ridiculous it was for the NFL and its fans to devote such furor to this incident."
On Feb. 5, 2012, nearly 167 million TV viewers tuned in to Super Bowl XLVI to watch a matchup between the New York Giants and New England Patriots. Besides the football action, what had people talking that day was a halftime performance by M.I.A. and, specifically, how she extended her middle finger during a performance of "Give Me All Your Luvin' " while mouthing, "I don't give a shit."

But the NFL did care. One month after the performance, the league initiated legal proceedings against the English-Sri Lankan rapper-singer. In a March 13, 2012, filing at the American Arbitration Association, obtained by The Hollywood Reporter, the league demanded $1.5 million from M.I.A. for allegedly breaching her performance contract and tarnishing its goodwill and reputation.

Jacoby Jones Injured in Fight
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Jacoby Jones was injured after a brawl broke out on a party bus.
He and teammates were out partying in Washington D.C., celebrating Bryant McKinnie’s birthday. The fight broke out at about 3 AM. The injury reportedly came when a bottle was swung and connected with Jones’ head. An ambulance arrived at the scene, but Jones’ didn’t go to the hospital.

Our sources say a stripper named Sweet Pea is the one who hit Jacoby with a gigantic Ace of Spades bottle and this may have triggered the brawl. We’re told the bottle smashed over his head and he was “bleeding everywhere.”
According to TMZ, the stripper reportedly smashed the bottle over his head, causing him to bleed everywhere. Friends of Jacoby reportedly got into a fight with friends of Bryant. That’s what caused the meleee. When police arrived, no one would cooperate.

Jacoby isn’t playing for the Ravens right now because of an injury.



Miguel Photographed At Terry Richardson's Studio [PHOTOS]
We've seen a few notable Hip-Hop artists step in front of Terry Richardson's camera lens in recent weeks. But today, the well known photographer changes the pace with R&B star Miguel.
Like always, Richardson debuted the photos on his Tumblr page. The Kaleidoscope Dream crooner sported two looks — one may be subject to slander — during the shoot. You'll notice that a lot emphasis was placed on the singer's choice of accessories, which included rings, bracelets, and a Rolex.
Star couple Big Sean and Naya Rivera, as well as Mike WiLL Made It and Miley Cyrus have recently been shot by the New York City local.
He’s going need to make mote coins to cover that Lawsuit…LOL!



Kanye West Demands Carpet Be Ironed
Kanye West blows away the staff on the Jools Holland show with his outrageous demands.

It's not unusual for megastars to make diva demands, but Kanye West's request to have his dressing room carpet ironed by BBC staff might be a step too far.
The 36-year-old rapper - who welcomed his first child North into the world with Kim Kardashian in June - caused a stir on the Later with Jools Holland show on Tuesday when he made a series of outrageous requests before taking to the stage to perform.
After turning up for rehearsals in Maidstone, Kent, the star was less than impressed with his studio set and demanded that staff tear it down and rebuild it to his original plans.
He then insisted everything in his dressing room be replaced in the colour white, including the walls, sofa and flowers.

The singer, who joined Sting and Kings of Leon on the show, was also adamant that he and his huge entourage should be given more than half of the fifteen dressing rooms available to the performers.
However, he really shocked BBC employees when he asked for his carpet to be flattened out with a heated tool as it was too bumpy for his liking.
A source told The Sun newspaper: 'Everybody knew Kanye's reputation for being a handful, but nobody had heard of a request for a carpet to be ironed before.
'His entourage took over the studio, even though plenty of other stars were present.
'Luckily once he got to the performance he was very quiet and unassuming.
