Prosecutor: LOCK LINDSAY LOHAN ASS UP! After her Community Service Fail!
If you're not already sitting down, take a seat and brace yourself for news that's sure to rock your world:
Lindsay Lohan is in trouble with the law. We know...you're shocked.
No, but seriously, everyone's favorite freckly trainwreck could legitimately be facing jail time.
And this isn't like the time Lohan went to jail for three hours. We're talking serious, getting-drunk-on-toilet-tank-wine-and-earning-a-colorful-prison-nickname hard time.
And it's all because she's a terrible liar...You see, back in 2012, Lindsay caused a car accident and lied about it to police. She got busted because - like we said - she sucks at lying.
She got off with a slap on the wrist, as she always does and was sentenced to community service. Last month, Lindsay lied about her community service and - you guessed it! - got caught.
Lindsay was given additional time to prove that she met the requirements, but she has yet to provide the documents the judge requested.
She's due back in court on Wednesday, and at least one insider says it doesn't look good for LiLo:
"[The prosecutor] is expected to ask Judge Richard Stone to terminate Lindsay's probation and will recommend she serve jail time due to lack of transparency regarding the completion of community service hours," says the source.
Yeah, that sounds bad. Let's cross our fingers and hope they toss her in the same big house as Teresa Giudice, and prison officials allow reality show cameras inside.
Kevin Hart Finally Reconciles With His Dad
Kevin Hart has reconciled with his once-absentee dad and admires the fact his old man doesn’t live in the past.
Reports Drews Reports: The comedian was largely brought up by his late mother thanks to his dad Henry’s drug issues and more than one stint behind bars, but father and son have found a way to put the past behind them.
Hart tells Men’s Health magazine, “When he finally got himself together, he didn’t harp on about what he did wrong and how it wasn’t his fault. It was all, ‘OK, this happened. How can I make it better?’
“He never complained… and I respect that. That’s all I needed.”

Black Men Making MAKING MOVES! Urban Prep Graduates All College-Bound For 4th Year In A Row
For a remarkable fourth consecutive year, all 167 seniors at Urban Prep Academies schools have been accepted at four-year colleges or universities this fall.
Students of the two Chicago public charter high schools — located in the city’s Englewood and University Village neighborhoods — gathered Thursday morning to celebrate the achievement of their schools, which some have dubbed “Hogwarts in the Hood” for their impressive, seemingly magical rates of success, CBS Chicago reports.
Still, Urban Prep’s founder and CEO Tim King says, “the only magic going on at Urban Prep is the magic that these guys put in with their hard work and dedication.”
Some of the students at Urban Prep have overcome harrowing odds along their paths to college. Over the past several months, graduating senior Pravione Winding, 17, endured both the loss of his grandmother to cancer and his father to a fatal shooting during a dice game on the city’s South Side in January, the Chicago Tribune reports.
After enduring those tragedies, Winding has been accepted at several schools and will likely attend Howard University in Washington, he told the Tribune.
Mayor Rahm Emanuel was on hand at the Thursday celebration and said the network’s students were setting a fine example others should follow, the Chicago Defender reports.
“I want everyone in this city, I want everyone in this country to look up here,” Emanuel said.
The all-male preparatory charter school network was founded in 2006. At that time, only four percent of its freshman class at its flagship Englewood campus was reading at grade level at the start of the school year. By 2010, all 107 of its graduating seniors were headed for college or university programs.
According to Fox Chicago, 85 percent of the students at Urban Prep’s campuses come from low-income families and many of the students start at least two grade levels behind where they should be. All of this year’s graduates are African American males, as are the majority of the network’s students.
The network’s third campus opened in the city’s Bronzeville neighborhood in the fall of 2010 and will mark its first graduating class next year.
At the Thursday celebration, Citi Foundation presented a $150,000 donation to the network in support of its alumni program which helps the schools’ graduates in their secondary education pursuits, NBC Chicago reports.
Princess Love ARRESTED for BEATING Ray J!
The relationship between Ray J and Princess Love has always been a tumultuous affair, but things reportedly got uglier than ever in a New Orleans hotel last night.
TMZ is reporting that Love savagely beat Ray J after her returned from partying with Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood producers at a nearby strip club.
The attack reportedly left Ray J with several broken ribs, a busted lip, and a torn ACL. A witness claims to have heard Princess threatening to kill Ray.
Cops were called by hotel staff after Ray J ran from his room, bloody and battered.
Princess was arrested and charged with domestic abuse and battery. Ray J reportedly paid her bail and ponied up 10 grand for her lawyer.
Ray J and Princess broke up back in October and then engaged in a very public custody dispute over their two Maltese puppies.
They later reconciled, only to quickly find themselves embroiled in major drama, yet again.
Last month, Ray J called 911 and stated that he believed Princess planned to kill him, commit suicide, or both.
We're thinking it might be time to put an end to the relationship for good this time, Ray.
And you thought his relationship with Kim Kardashian was memorable!
Nick Gordon Gets Bobbi Kristina Tattoo!
Nick Gordon recently unveiled a new forearm tattoo that reads Bobbi Kristina despite rumors that he may have physically assaulted her. Gordon has been banned from visiting his partner and is under investigation by law enforcement officials after authorities noticed marks on Kristina’s face and Gordon’s body that indicate a possible struggle between the two.
BK has been in a medically induced coma since January 31 after she was found unresponsive, face down in a tub full of water inside her Georgia home.
Gordon, who has been mum on reports about his relationship troubles with Bobbi, issued a statement through his attorneys Randy Kessler and Joe Habachy just days ago saying he’s hopeful she’ll recover.
“[Nick] remains in constant prayer for his companion, and he hopes to be reunited with her soon,” the statement read. “Mr Gordon’s only concern is the recovery of Bobbi Kristina.”
Taraji P. Henson To Wendy Williams: Don’t play B*TCH I don’t need A$$ shots!!
Taraji P. Henson wants to make one thing clear: she did not get a** shots!
On last weeks episode of Empire, Henson character Cookie Lyon showed off her flawless figure in a sexy piece of lingerie, flaunting off her perfectly round backside. And while most fans applauded the seductive reveal, it seems like some folks over at the Wendy Williams Show questioned the authenticity of the Cookie’s butt.
In an Instagram message posted on Thursday morning, Henson directed this message to Wendy and her team:
“HA! Thank you for the love @wendyshow! And tell your producer guy that those #CookieCakes are ALL ME baby. EVERYBODY AIN’T GETTING ASS SHOTS!!! I don’t need them! Also let him/her know TV adds a lil weight so RELAX!”
Empire airs Wednesday night’s on FOX at 9 p.m.

Gang Of White Folks Arrested For Food Stamp Fraud In New York
So much for that Black Welfare Queen HUH? Welfare and food stamp fraud has been a talking point of conservatives for years, especially during the reign of President Barack Obama. However, 30 white folks in upstate New York were arrested for food stamp fraud thus shifting a commonly held and incorrect narrative.
Based on numbers from the USDA, white dominate Blacks in receiving food stamp and welfare benefits 40 to 26 percent respectively. But most wouldn’t know that considering how often Blacks and other races are assailed in the media for using government assistance.
Over the past two months, police in Brushton, N.Y. have arrested 30 persons for varying degrees of food stamp fraud. According to local media outlets, the fraud operation had been on the radar of authorities for quite some time.
From WPTZ:
New York State Police-Malone say the transactions occurred at Old Time Butcher Block Store in Brushton, and the owner 45-year-old Dennis Sauve of North Bangor was arrested on Jan. 16 and charged with third-degree grand larceny and misuse of food stamps.
Police say the arrests are the result of a year-long investigation, initiated by the Franklin County Department of Social Services Fraud Unit. Franklin County District Attorney’s Office, the United States Department of Agriculture, and the New York State Office of Temporary and Disability Assistance helped with the investigation.
WCAX reports that even more connected to this case will be arrested. The station also noted that Sauve has been in trouble for food stamp fraud in times past.
We probably won’t hear much from Republicans and conservatives about how vicious a crime this was. Imagine if those arrested were Black though?
FOX News Affiliate Reports President Obama As A Rape Suspect!
Via The Wrap:
Instead of a picture of the suspect in a sexual assault at San Diego State University, a photo of the President with the text “NO CHARGES” ran over the shoulder of anchor Kathleen Bade as she reported that there would be no charges filed in the case.
The shot was noticed quickly by the newsroom, assignment editor Mike Willie told the Times of San Diego.
“Yeah, there was an accident when they had an over-the-shoulder [display],” Wille said. “It wasn’t on purpose.”
The error was followed by an on-air apology from fellow anchor Misha DiBono, seen in the video.
Senior vice president of corporate relations for Tribune Media Gary Weitman told the Times, “I want to let you know that the station will be running an on-air correction and an apology tonight; please be sure to watch for it.”
Watch the video of the inexcusable blurb below
WATCH HERE!
A station graphic designer, Thomas Condry, fessed up to the error in the “Times'” comments section, where he apologized for the mistake.
Please refrain from judging this station,” Condry wrote to one commenter. “Everyone here works very hard, and this was my mistake alone. I don’t know if you know any employee here, but I do know I haven’t seen you in the station which leads me to believe you know nothing about our level of respect or contempt regarding any topic.”
At least they depicted him as the innocent one, right?
Celebs Attend Tyler Perry's BABY Christening!

Oprah Winfrey (Aman's godmother) was there to celebrate with Tyler. She posed with Yolanda Adams and Jennifer Hudson (who both performed).
Oprah was spotted enjoying the festivities with Cicely Tyson. Both Oprah and Cicely are Aman's Godmothers.
On Facebook, Tyler posted a few behind the scenes pics (but non of himself or Aman).
Clearly....there was some good singing going on.
Is Jermaine Dupri Ready to Spill on Janet Jackson?
Newly revealed blind item claims Jermaine Dupri is ready to write a tell-all book about his time with Janet Jackson…
According to Crazy Days and Nights
Blind Items Revealed
January 29, 2015
I hope that confidentiality agreement that this former A+ list singer turned recluse signed with one of her exes is ironclad or she is going to have a whole world of gossip and dirt come tumbling down on her like she has never seen. He needs the money and is ready to spill. She probably should have written the check because once he starts talking to the ghostwriter, all of it will get out. This ghostwriter does not keep secrets very well.

Eudoxie And Ludacris Expecting A Baby!
Are congratulations in order for Ludacris and his brand new wife Eudoxie?
Ludacris and newlywed wife Eudoxie are reportedly expecting their first child together… and we’ve got the photo of the baby bump that proves it!
Looks like Tamika Fuller was wrong about why Luda chose to tie the knot with longtime girlfriend Eudoxie Agnan! Fuller, the mother of Luda’s 14-month-old daughter Cai had contended he tied the knot in order to present a stronger, two family home during the rapper’s child custody battle. But it seems that Luda was actually stepping it up for his expecting love — Eudoxie, who sources tell us is around 6 months pregnant.
