Kanye West Pleads Not Guilty To Assaulting Photographer

Kanye West (actually, his lawyer) pleaded not guilty to assaulting a photographer in LAX.

Reports TMZ:

Kanye's lawyer Blair Berk entered the not guilty plea on the rapper's behalf this morning in court. Attorney Gloria Allred was present representing the photographer Daniel Ramos ... and spoke outside the court afterward.

As I previously reported, Kanye was charged with criminal battery and attempted grand theft after allegedly attacking the photog at the airport and grabbing the guy's camera.

If convicted of both misdemeanors ... Kanye faces a maximum of 1 year in jail.

The same paparazzo has also filed a civil suit against Yeezy. Which means the photographer will probably getting paid something when all is said and done.

West, who has since said the altercation was self-defense on his part, even stated that the photographer was looking for a payday just before their now infamous altercation.

If Kanye West pleads not guilty, that means you gotta believe him, right?

Angry Birds: Erica Mena Goes In On K. Michelle In A Radio Interview

Does Erica really want to take it there with K?

Erica Mena has been known to make a scene and pop off at the drop of a dime. She’s really reckless with her mouth and she says whatever she feels, but she needs to realize that one day she is going to meet her match and they are going to bark right back.

And we think she has! Erica Mena has thrown a whole lot of shade at newbie K. Michelle about joining the New York casts and if she can handle being on the show. And we want to be the first to warn Erica, K.Michelle is not to be played with.

It looks like Erica is going to have to learn by herself. Erica recently did an interview with DJ Doing Work going in on K. Michelle and to us she sounds a quite bit intimidated.

According to Erica, K.Michelle’s ego is to blame. The R&B singer was just added to the “LHHNY” cast after first being introduced to TV audiences on the franchise’s “ATL” series. K.Michelle is also in line to get her own series.

“She’s coming from out of nowhere. Now, all of a sudden she has some harsh opinions about me, and she doesn’t even know me…Right now, she’s just feelin’ her own $h!t,” said Erica who cautioned the Tennessee native that her hometown customs might not translate the same in the Big Apple.

“In the Concrete Jungle, there’s definitely no Southern hospitality,” said Erica who hinted that a confrontation between the two women might not end well for K. “Anyone who’s gotten in a fight with me doesn’t last. I’m starting to feel like I have these secret powers where I get to kill people off one by one,” she said.

Um Erica have you seen Love and Hip Hop ATL? K. Michelle will toss that a** up real quick.

For some reason we’re under the impression that Erica thinks she is on the same level with their career as K. Erica really needs to think again because clearly we know who is more talented.

K. Michelle honestly has been doing a really great job at ignoring Erica, but that’s only going to last so long before she pops off and we can’t wait to see it happen.

Uh Oh? Beehive Starts a Petition for Beyonce Not to Attend Kim Kardashian’s Wedding

Beyonce stans go hard. It’s obvious the beehive isn’t here for the courtship of KimYe, could care less about the upcoming nuptials, but they refuse to see their Queen be anywhere near the church of “unholy matirimony”–the way the stans see it. However a few tweets, writings on her website wall, and IG post will never get the singers attention like a petition. One of Beyonce’s number one fans started a petition on Change.org urging her to boycott the wedding.

As you all know by know Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have sadly been in the news for their ‘engagement.’ Kim Kardashian and her disgusting family are known for their rise to fame for doing absolutely nothing. Aside from being a famous wh**e Kim has decided to get knocked up by notorious jackass Kanye West and know are planning to get married. Now we must do all in our power to stop Beyonce from attending that god forsaken wedding, since her husband Jay Z is BFF’s with Kanye he problaby wants both of them to go. Beyonce should not be forced to go and sit through that torture while surrounded by the Kardashian pigs. Beyonce do not go to that wedding you dont have to do it to please that wh**e and her jackass fiance. Do us a favor Bey and rain check that train wreck of wedding.

As if the very serious, somewhat funny, and a lot of bit rude statement wasn’t enough, she continued with reason’s the grammy-winning artist can skip out on the exchange of vows.

1. Extend The Mrs Carter Show World Tour for as long as possible- Be on tour for their wedding. Tell them your busy and business always comes first.

2. Blue Ivy has the flu- You cant attend a wedding when your baby is sick.

3. You have something better to do- You are Beyonce you always have something better to do than to attend a Kim Kardashian wedding.

4. Say that you have a  meeting with the President and the First Lady- Who would say no to the president, especially when your other choice is to attend a Kim Kardashian wedding.

5. Simply say no- Tell the bitch no. Simple as that.

Hope these tips help in your decison making Bey.

In case the off chance that she does decide to go, these are the beehive’s hopes and wishes of the star.

BTW if you do go to their wedding do us all the favor and throw a knife at that bitch.

See some of her stans comments:

Quiara Nicole:

Beyoncé has better things to do like slay the stage and be the queen that she is. I think this is hilarious and that is mainly the reason why I’m signing this, but if Motha Bey wants to go to the damn wedding, let her go. She is a grown woman and please let her walk into that wedding with a vengeance to slay everyone in the bridal party and in the room.

Katrina Honeycott

The Kardashians are nothing but fame whores who live on blood money and porn money. There is no talent and they promote themselves as role models. They are not role models. They are what we shouldn’t be in this life. Beyonce has talent and so far is a good role model. She shouldn’t be drawn into the Keeping Up With The Kardashians circus. The last marriage was a joke and sham. She needs to stay away

Jared Bednarczyk

You have got to be fucking kidding me. This is hilarious. Ohmyfuck. I want this to be a thing. Halp.

Denzil Williams

Because Kim is a skanky Whore! Queen B shouldnt lower herself to attending a prostitutes wedding!

Bianca Epps

KK is will lowers standards on a moral level and a creative level. if you go to her wedding, you will be known as Ray J’s sex buddy friend and not a talented singer

Allysa Russell

I dont care really if Bey goes but i dont think Kim should be getting married in the first place needs as least support as possible and Bey & Jay are way to classy and way above Kim k and her nonsense

Ihsan Ibrahim

It isnt, just supporting my beyhive fambam! Besides, i’d love her to go and support kanye. It’s sad he’s marrying kim tho.

Micah James

Kim has the herps. The king shalt not be associated with diseased whales.

Jamarcus Henderson

THE KARDASHIANS HAVE NO BUSINESS BEING NEAR THE QUEEN!!!!

Diana Ramos

Beyonce and and Jay Z are way to classy to attend a wedding that is only going to last for a few weeks. Marriage is when two people are in love with each other not for ratings or money or simply because you are bored and don’t know what else to do with your money!

Ada Rodriguez

I dont want Beyonce to get forced to go to Kim Kardashians weding nobody likes Kim she a plastic doll we are all tired of her foreal!!!!

WOW..Ish has gotten real!

BELIEVE IT OR NOT? Idris Elba SUPPOSEDLY Has A New Boo...And A Baby On The Way

Word on the internet streets is that Idris Elba has squashed the hopes of women around the world and knocked up his new bo, a makeup artist.

We usually take what The Sun says with a grain of salt....but this time it may hold some water.

The fineness that is Idris Elba showed up to the Harper's Bazaar Women of the Year awards in London yesterday with a "mystery woman" on his arm.  But it turns out, she's not a mystery afterall.

She's makeup artist Naiyana Garth.  She lives in London...and she appears to be pregnant. *GASP*

The Sun reports that a source told them:

'They've been together for a few months but it's really ramped up recently. They get on brilliantly and she's a real hit with his family and friends.

'Idris is known as a ladies' man but he's really not at all. He'd rather have banter at the bar than spend all night grafting on women. Although he doesn't have to try anyway, women flock to him.'

Oh really?

And there's more.  This wasn't the first public appearance she's made with the Mandela star.  They hit up the Dior at Harrod's launch together back in March.

As soon as the rumor of their alleged relationshp and even more alleged baby hit the net, Naiyana up and deleted her Twitter account.  Trying to hide something?

But we saw a few of her tweets from before her big deletion.  And that's where she told a friend she's pregnant:

She also referenced Mr. Elba plenty on her TL.

Damn Idris.  Just...damn.

Jenny McCarthy Celebrates Moschino Loves Disaronno

She's always eager to have a good time, and Jenny McCarthy headed out in New York City to celebrate the launch of the limited edition Moschino loves Disaronno bottle.

The newest "View" co-host looked stunning in an all-black ensemble and matching heels as she posed in between a plethora of red balloons and smiled for the awaiting shutterbugs.

While hanging out at the swanky affair, Jenny sipped on Disaronno Loves Sour and Disaronno Sparkling cocktails while sitting at a private table.

In between dancing and enjoying her refreshing beverages, Miss McCarthy even took her shot at a “vogue-ing” competition with two drag queens on a catwalk in the middle of the dance floor.

California Ranks As The Nation's Poorest State

The Hollywood allure wasn't enough to save California from ranking #50 in America's poverty polling. This marks the second year in a row the Golden State came up last in the cash flow department.

To determine this year's survey, the United States Census Bureau switched up their approach compared to previous years. By factoring in taxes and other expenses, they were able to determine that California just wasn't able to dig themselves out of the whole just yet.

Of course the population had a tremendous impact on the findings as well.

Via The Huffington Post:

The official rate released by the U.S. Census Bureau in September determined that California had some 6.2 million poor people when using a three-year average that ended in 2012. However, the bureau's alternate or supplemental poverty measure, which takes into account more factors like cost of living and public benefits, found the Golden State had nearly 9 million people living in poverty in the same period.

While more than a dozen states had a larger share of poor people than California did under the official rate, the alternate rate put California at the top of the list, followed by the District of Columbia. Under the official rate, California was tied for 14th place, with Louisiana topping the list, followed by Mississippi.

"It increases California's poverty rate by a fairly substantial amount, from 16.5 percent to 23.8 percent," said Jonathan Buttle, a research program specialist with the California Department of Finance. "It simply presents an alternative snapshot to the official number."

Not only do Californians pay one of the highest median rents in the country, the state also has a high proportion of people who are renting or own homes with mortgages, which is accounted for in the alternate measure but not in the official measure, said Kathleen Short, a U.S. Census Bureau economist.

A high cost of living and low-income rate just don't add up. It's estimated that 25 percent of the state's population is considered "poor." Next time you decide to listen to 2Pac's "California Love," pour out a little liquor for those not doing so well.

3 Dead, 7 Wounded In Deadly Detroit Barber Shop Shooting

Detroit police are investigating a violent shooting episode that has left three people dead and seven wounded. The shooting took place Wednesday (Nov. 6) night at Al's Barbershop, and a person of interest in now in custody.

The barbershop, located on the city's East Side, was known as a hotbed for gambling and other illegal activities by police. A group of men were shooting dice inside the shop when gunmen entered the business around 6 p.m. and began to open fire. According to the Detroit Free Press, police have yet to determine a motive in the crime.

From the Detroit Free Press:

As bullets came in, many of the people who were gathered inside ran for their lives, taking cover at nearby businesses, including a party store across the street.

When it was over, 10 people had been shot — at least two fatally — a particularly bloody scene in a city well-known for its rampant shootings. It served as another reminder of the violence in Detroit, second only to Flint nationally in homicide and violent crime rate, at a time when elected leaders and others are focusing on ways to reduce the bloodshed that's all too common in many neighborhoods.

Although it was initially reported that two victims had died, all male, a third man was reported dead later. Police are searching for two possible shooters and two Chevrolet Impalas. A woman alleged to be one of the victim's mother was interviewed by the Free Press but did not give her name. Three of her sons were in the shop during the time of the shooting, reports the paper.

“I heard he's dead … they won't let me up there,” the woman said.

Conflicting reports state that 10 persons were shot, although Detroit police say nine total were hit with gunfire

Major League Drama: Jay Z Gives A $34,000 Gift That Brings Trouble From The MLB Players Association

Jay Z is in some Major League trouble after gifting an expensive timepiece to one of his players. Being a part of the Roc Nation Sports Agency certainly has some major perks.

Under the laws of the MLBPA, agents cannot gift their clients with “any money, or any other thing of value,” over $500 without consulting the union first.  So when Jay Z gave New York second baseman and Roc Nation player, Robinson Cano, a $34,000 Shawn Carter Classic Fusion Hublot watch for his 31st birthday, he brought the attention of the Association.

The timepiece was co designed by Carter and was given to Cano at a birthday party in Belgium on October 22nd.

So how did the Association find out about this very expensive gift???

Why Did Michael Jordan Keep Wedding Plans a Secret From Ex Wife??

As you know,  Michael Jordan’s ex-wife Juanita Jordan has been out of the spot like since their divorce in 2007.

When Michael Jordan divorced his wife Juanita, her $168 million settlement was one of the largest on record.

So why was Junaita surprised when Michael didn’t tell her he was getting married again..?

Juanita recently sat down with the Chicago Business Insider where she discussed life after her high-profile divorce.

Check out a few excerpts from the interview below:

On Juanita’s goals after the divorce:

“I wanted to simplify my life. I got off boards, I downsized the way I lived. I had to because I wasn’t going to be in a huge house. I really looked forward to the basic things: my children and my good friends,”

“I thought I’d open my own business,” she says. “But it was important for me to remain in my kids’ lives as much as possible, even through college. And that required a lot of time.” So she has kept her real estate license active and focused on helping her children settle into adult life.

On Juanita’s current relationship with Michael:

Ms. Jordan says she and Mr. Jordan still talk. “Mostly our conversations are about the children. I don’t remember him saying, ‘By the way, I’m getting married,’ ” she says, chuckling at the thought. “Divorce was certainly new to me. I had to learn that you have to communicate. That it’s not about you or your ex-partner. It’s about making sure the children are all right.”

On Juanita and Michael’s kids:

The Jordans’ oldest son, Jeffrey, lives in Portland, Ore., where he’s entered Nike Inc.’s management-training program. Younger son Marcus is in Florida, hoping to open a fashion boutique. Both played college ball and dreamed of going pro.

“They wanted to be like their dad. What boy doesn’t?” Ms. Jordan says. “But they both got to a point where they said, ‘We’re not going to the NBA.’ “ That they were able to walk away from No. 23′s shadow is due much to their mother, who early on pushed her children to establish their own identities.

It’s Jasmine, the youngest Jordan child, who will follow her dad. She is wrapping up her last year at Syracuse University and will join Mr. Jordan in the office of the Charlotte Bobcats, where he’s an owner.

Do you think he needs to tell his ex-wife he’s getting married?

CAPITAL TRAGEDY! DC Navy Yard Shooting 12 DEAD Many more injured!

 As many as two gunmen launched an attack Monday morning inside the Washington Navy Yard, spraying gunfire on office workers in the cafeteria and in the hallways at the heavily secured military installation in the heart of the nation's capital, authorities said. At least 12 people were killed plus the one confirmed shooter in the attack.

One gunman was dead after he fired on a police officer, and police hunted for a second possible attacker who may have been disguised in a military-style uniform, authorities said. The gunman, identified as Aaron Alexis, 34, of Fort Worth, Texas, was killed by police during the confrontation.

"We are confronting yet another mass shooting," President Obama said Monday during remarks that were intended to address the financial crisis. "And today it happened on a military installation in our nation's capital."

A law enforcement official told CBS News' Pat Milton the shooter was discovered with an AR-15 assault rifle and a shotgun with him and was wearing dark blue clothing

CBS News correspondent Bob Orr reports that Alexis was also found with a sidearm that authorities believe may have come from one of the Navy Yard's security officers.

Investigators said they had not established a motive for the shooting rampage, which unfolded less than four miles from the White House. As for whether it may have been a terrorist attack, Mayor Vincent Gray said: "We don't have any reason to think that at this stage."

The FBI took charge of the investigation.

While Alexis' motive is still not clear, his military record showed that he is a former avionics electrician with the U.S. Navy. He had been arrested at least twice previously: once in Seattle for malicious mischief, and once in Fort Worth in 2010 for discharging a firearm in public. His home of record in his military record was listed as New York City.

Alexis enlisted in the military May 5, 2007, and received initial training outside Chicago before eventually serving in Fort Worth, according to his record. During his time in the Navy, he was awarded a Global War on Terrorism Service Medal and a National Defense Service Medal.

On Monday, Alexis was carrying an ID card belonging to Rollie Chance, who was placed on administrative leave last October. Chance told officials he does not know Alexis.

Obama: Washington Navy Yard shooting a "cowardly" act

Mr. Obama mourned the shooting and promised "whoever carried out this cowardly act is held responsible."

In addition to the dead, at least three people were wounded.

The area where the rampage took place, known as Building 197, was part of the headquarters for Naval Sea Systems Command, which buys, builds and maintains ships, submarines and combat systems. The yard is a labyrinth of buildings protected by armed guards at gates and metal detectors, and employees have to show their IDs to come and go.

About 3,000 people work at the headquarters, many of them civilians. As a result of the incident, the Navy has issued an "Order to Account" for all Navy uniformed personnel, both active duty and selected Reserve, assigned to commands in the D.C. metro area.

Witnesses described a gunman opening fire from a fourth-floor overlook, aiming down on people in the cafeteria on the main floor. Others said a gunman fired at them in a third-floor hallway. It was not clear whether the witnesses on different floors were describing the same gunman.

Around midday, police said they were searching for two men who may have taken part in the attack — one carrying a handgun and wearing a tan Navy-style uniform and a beret, the other armed with a long gun and wearing an olive-green uniform. Washington Police Chief Cathy Lanier said it was unclear if the men were members of the military.

But later in the day, police said in a tweet that the man in the tan uniform had been identified and was not involved in the shooting.

It was not immediately clear whether the number of dead included a gunman.

As emergency vehicles and law enforcement officers flooded streets around the complex, a helicopter hovered overhead, nearby schools were locked down and airplanes at nearby Reagan National Airport were grounded so they would not interfere with law-enforcement choppers.

A short distance away, security was beefed up at the Capitol and other federal buildings, but officials said there was no known threat.

Todd Brundidge, an executive assistant with Navy Sea Systems Command, said he and other co-workers encountered a gunman in a long hallway on the third floor. The gunman was wearing all blue, he said.

"He just turned and started firing," Brundidge said.

Terrie Durham, an executive assistant with the same agency, said she also saw the gunman firing toward her and Brundidge.

"He aimed high and missed," she said. "He said nothing. As soon as I realized he was shooting, we just said, 'Get out of the building.'"

Rick Mason, a civilian program-management analyst for the Navy who works on the fourth floor of the building, said a gunman was firing from the overlook in the hallway outside his office.

Shortly after the gunfire, Mason said, someone on an overhead speaker told workers to seek shelter and later to head for the gates at the complex.

Patricia Ward, a logistics-management specialist, said she was in the cafeteria getting breakfast.

"It was three gunshots straight in a row — pop, pop, pop. Three seconds later, it was pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, so it was like about a total of seven gunshots, and we just started running," Ward said.

Ward said security officers started directing people out of the building with guns drawn.

One person died at George Washington University Hospital of a single gunshot wound to the left temple, said Dr. Babak Sarani, director of trauma and acute care surgery. A police officer and two civilian women were in critical condition at Washington Hospital Center, said Janis Orlowski, the hospital's chief operating officer.

Orlowski said the police officer was in the operating room with gunshot wounds to the legs. The police chief said the officer was wounded when he engaged the shooter who later died.

One woman at the hospital had a gunshot wound to the shoulder. The other had gunshot wounds to the head and hand.

Adm. Jonathan Greenert, chief of naval operations, was at the base at the time the shooting began but was moved unharmed to a nearby military installation.

Anxious relatives and friends of those who work at the complex waited to hear from loved ones.

Tech Sgt. David Reyes, who works at Andrews Air Force Base, said he was waiting to pick up his wife, Dina, who was under lockdown in a building next to where the shooting happened. She sent him a text message about being on lockdown.

"They are under lockdown because they just don't know," Reyes said. "They have to check every building in there, and they have to check every room and just, of course, a lot of rooms and a lot of buildings."

Naval Sea Systems Command is the largest of the Navy's five system commands and accounts for a quarter of the Navy's entire budget. Only security personnel were allowed to be armed on the grounds, but that can include uniformed security officers, civilian contractors and members of the Naval Criminal Investigative Service.

Cmdr. Timothy Jirus said he has a clearance that would allow him to carry a gun on the campus. He has a secure access card that he swipes to get into the headquarters office.

"I think the security is really good, up until today," Jirus said.

Everyone must show an ID to get through a main gate, and at the building entrance, everyone must swipe a badge to pass through either a door or gate, depending on the entrance.

That "makes me think it might have been someone who works here," Mason said

The Navy Yard has three gates, according to its website. One is open around the clock and must be used by visitors. A second gate is only for military and civilian Defense Department employees. The third gate is for bus traffic.

The Navy Yard is part of a fast-growing neighborhood on the banks of the Anacostia River in southeast Washington, blocks from the Nationals Park baseball stadium.

SERIOUSLY!?! Infamous Drake, Jay Z, & Miguel Memes Become Polo Shirts

Drake, Miguel, and most recently Jay Z have all been slayed by the Internets via the currently preferred method for slander: memes. Joseph Evans took it even further with DrakeYoloPolo, a small capsule collection featuring the infamous aforementioned images.

As the name implies, the OVO rapper was the initial influence, but as of today, Hov and the "Adorn" crooner have also entered the fold. The trio's images are now immortalized on the chest of an array of golf shirts for purchase.

Yes, the clothing is absolutely hilarious. It's very cost efficient, as it rests comfortably at a $25 price point. This is subject to change when demand grows, so get it while the getting is good.

If you care to cop, the available merchandise can be found here: 

Gucci Mane Tries To Line It Up In Lenox Mall

Feeling froggy?

Gucci Mane is on a roll this week. He’s been surrounded by nothing, but drama and it keeps coming. First he came after a bunch of artists on twitter, then he exposed his bedroom takedowns and now he’s picking fights.

You mad bro? Gucci doesn’t go to the mall to shop, he goes to fight with strangers. Check out this clip from Gucci in Lenox Mall in Atlanta below.

WATCH:

It’s unclear what sparked the altercation. Gucci is so hostile these days…maybe it was all a big misunderstanding. You know no one can understand his words with the way he talks.

One thing for sure, Gucci is mad at the wrong people…he needs to be mad at his first grade teacher for not helping him learn how to properly speak and spell.

Joseph Gordon Levitt won’t answer gay rumors: ‘That would be really tacky’

Joseph Gordon Levitt covers the October issue of Out Magazine to promote Don Jon. He doesn’t quite look like a cartoon character on this cover, but damn, the Photoshop gods have not been good to JGL this week. It’s such a shame because he’s such a cutie. I don’t know if the mags are trying to make him look older and lose the babyface, but whatever the reason, it’s not working. Leave Joe’s face alone.

Other than the cover, this shoot isn’t too bad. Joe cuddles with a kitten and flaps his coat around sort of like Batman. Out’s piece is called “Return of the Leading Man.” JGL talks about all sorts of stuff including his transition from child star to adult actor, his brother’s passing, and his feelings on pr0n. Oh and he talks about those pesky gay rumors too:

Leaving child stardom behind: “I auditioned for lots of little movies and no one wanted to put me in their creatively challenging roles because they didn’t think I could do it. And I don’t blame them. I was known for being on a farcical television show.”

He’s ambivalent toward fame: “It comes from a really young age. It can be really awkward and difficult to be thought of as this thing on TV. Before understanding it or being able to analyze it, I just knew it made me really anxious. I wouldn’t just say ‘No.’ I was way more convincing than that. I would first act confused, and then I would try to understand what they were saying. I would play the part.”

On his late brother, Dan: “He was so overwhelmingly positive and warm. One of my favorite things about hitRECord is how positive it is, especially compared to most of what goes on on the Internet, which can be snarky and cynical. I credit Dan with that. He couldn’t help but get swept up in it, and it makes me so happy that the momentum continues today. I’m on the site every day, and the fact there’s this warmth to it, it reminds me of him every time.”

On his hippie parents: “I think they both instilled into me and my brother the feeling that we’re part of the world, and that that’s important — that we’re all connected and everyone’s well-being is tied to each other. They’re hippies, but they were not so much about being flower children as getting something done, trying to stop this war, or changing civil rights or the feminist movement — and they still are that way.”

On his new film, Don Jon, in which he plays a pr0n addict: “I wasn’t interested in making a movie about pr0nography. I was interested in making a movie about how people treat each other like things, and all kinds of media can contribute to that. I’ve been working as an actor since I was a little kid, and I’ve always been fascinated, and a little horrified, by the way people relate to images they see on screen. Sometimes I feel I am seen as a thing more than a person, and I don’t think that’s unique to actors. I think everyone is subject to that kind of pigeonholing.”

On not refuting paparazzi allegations he is gay: “That would be really tacky — they would win if I had to clarify.”

Since the main character in Don Jon is comically obsessed with pr0n, I guess questions on the topic are inevitable. JGL seems very conscious about how that industry treats women, but it’s not like he can change things with Don Jon. Like he says above, his movie isn’t even really about pr0n.

I do like how Joe answered the question about gay rumors. Obviously, that kind of gossip doesn’t bother him at all. He has had girlfriends before, right? My gaydar isn’t going off for him at all.

OOOPS: Khloe Kardashian Cuts Off Credit Cards So Lamar Odom Can’t Buy Drugs

A source said:“Khloe put a hold on all their credit cards so he couldn’t get cash.”

What’s even more shocking is that KoKo’s hubby has reportedly been pawning jewelry to pay for his drugs.

And after all that she’s gone through, it seems like Khloe might finally be done with Lamar.

A friend explained:“They will get divorced. There is no way to patch this up.”

Because Khloe froze him out of their joint account, he got extremely angry, a source tells Star. “Lamar became infuriated and stole some of her jewelry in a fit of rage to sell for drugs. He’s spent $1,000 a day at times, and he still owes thousands to his dealers.”

By pawning jewelry for drugs, that will make Khloe completely distrust Lamar and make it that much harder for their marriage to get back on track. We hope that Lamar gets the help he needs soon so his relationship with Khloe can try to be saved. DAMN!!! I was hoping the best for them. Oh well.
