Peep this blog post by Kid Cudi from kidcudi.com where he clears up the rumor that he’s working on a record with kanYe that samples a Duran Duran song… 

POSTED: 11.05.10 

ima need everyone to please disregard what you may have heard from Jim Jonsin’s recent interview. i got mad love for jim but he was misinformed. there is no kanye x kid cudi duran duran song, id sample a 90s record before a 80s record anyday AND when i worked with jim, i hadnt even started sessions with plain pat and emile yet so the direction of my album was yet to be determined. we did cut one record but since the album theme change im still not sure if ima use it or not. the story flows well with out it so its pretty much up in the air. my album sounds nothing like youve ever heard before and cant be describe to be honest. like MOTM, its one of a kind and very VERY honest. ALSO no disrespect to B.o.B., hes a homie of mine and extremely talented but i feel my work cant really be compared to anyone elses. i pride myself on what i create and i will make sure you are all pleased with it. 

fans and press: wait for me to make official statements about my music before you believe other wise. ill start spilling the beans on this new glorious fucker really soon.thanx, cud and management

step your cookies up before they crumble!

While I was doing my quick browse through the net, I saw this headline about Tila Tequila supposedly giving Amber Rose some advice on how to keep her name ringing (she did this through a post on her blog site, misstilaomg.com).  Nicki Minaj once said in a rhyme, “step your cookies up before they crumble,” and I guess this is the message that Tila is trying to spread to Amber. check out the blog post straight from misstilaomg.com…btw, VSN means Vogue Side Note. 

Okay… for the record.. I got mad love for my girl Amber Rose. VSN: Wow, and this is the first thing you say right before you GO in on her! We met last summer at P. Diddy’s “WHITE PARTY” and she’s a pretty down ass ghetto chick from Philly, which I love! Shit — I’m a down-ass-ghetto-chic from Houston myself!! However as a Gossip Blogger, I cannot be bias just cuz someone is my “FRIEND” I must report my unbiased opinion no matter how messed up it may seem! (that’s what’s missing in the blog world today anyway right?!) VSN: Well, you are going to be bias if their your friend unless you really feel that their starlight is fading. However, as a friend, you would probably tell them to their face or over the phone instead of putting it on the internet for the whole world to see. Now, people are looking for some rebuttal from Amber unless you’ve already explained to her that this is way to garner more ppl to your blog. I’ll be honest, I didn’t even know Tila had her own blog site until this story broke–I thought I stayed in the KNOW!

  

My question is – is Amber Rose starting to loose her PEDALS? I remember when she first stepped out with Kanye West a while ago, she was in EVERY tabloid, and EVERY magazine! However in 2010, you don’t hear much about Amber Rose anymore. Does anyone care about her anymore???? Has her height of fame reached it’s peak?? VSN: I care about Amber Rose, however, I want to hear about her in a positive light with the latest endorsements she’s doing or modeling projects instead of some drama. I think she’s going to be around for a long time and I’m not being bias because she’s dating kanYe (who I absolutely adore) and guess what…I don’t know her from Adam so I’m not saying this because she’s a friend! 

I don’t know, but me personally, I haven’t heard much about her in the tabloids. I think her haydays are about to be over if she doesn’t do something quick! VSN: The last thing I remember hearing about Tila is that she was on Twitter talking about Game being her baby’s father and he went straight to TMZ to clean up that rumor. Then, these recent pics of her blonde hair caught my eye. I mean kiss a girl in public, slap Yeezy, proclaim your love for Oprah! Anything, if this is the game you want to play, play it like a Kardashian (well, you don’t have to be that desperate!) 

I also think she looks like she gained a bit of weight in this pic. Maybe she can be in “Precious 2″ or “Celebrity Fit Club” I’m just throwing some ideas around. LOL! VSN: Even if Amber gained 20 lbs, shoot, she probably still be in shape, maybe not by industry standards because according to one supermodel, you’re considered plus size if you’re an 8 in the modeling biz- dayumms! But for realz, this is a pic of her taken while shopping on Roberston Blvd. in Los Angeles. I mean, Amber Rose was always known for her thick and sexy body, but right now, I think she has gained some weight. Hmmmm…maybe Kanye has something to do with it? Everyone is saying that he is unable to share the spotlight with anyone … and Amber used to be the one the paparazzi would go gaga over … now it’s actually Lady Gaga! Maybe he reeled her in and let her know she was arm candy only! 

Anyway, that’s just my opinion. Amber, you still my girl, but milk it as much as you can while you’re still here, cuz in the Hollywood world, one minute you’re hot shit, and the next, they don’t even remember your name. So my advice to you? Start up a business, start a perfume line, pitch a tv show, or DO SOMETHING aside from just being Kanye’s girl. Word is your ass needs more media training … get some! Date Reggie Bush, he’s single now and more man than Kanyeezy will evah be! Or HOLLA AT ME BIATCH! 

Yeah I took a shot at you Amber, but for your own good! 

Muah! 

Love 

Miss Tila 

PS- So what do you guys think? Amber Rose fading from spotlight or still hot? Is she better off with or without Kanye? And do you agree with me that she should Milk it while she’s still hot??? What is YOUR opinions on this? Has she gained weight????? 

IPad designs- Definitely HOT but is this NECESSARY?


So, while cruising BBC Ice Cream, I spot this solid gold IPad. Wow, are you serious? I knew this was going to happen. Right after Mariah Carey pops up in a Lifers video with her diamond encrusted M IPad, I knew someone was going to design something even bigger and fresher. Now, I’m 98% sure that Mariah’s is not decked out in real diamonds, but who’s to say that someone isn’t going to create one. I mean, someone went and created this: check out this solid gold IPad that costs 189,000 stacks. Per BBC Ice Cream, it was designed by Stuart Hughes. Then check out Mariah’s. I’m post hers simply because its hers. Yeah, I’m being bias (big Mariah fan!)

Top 60 Ghetto Black Names


you know…i don’t know whether to laugh or raise an eyebrow and yell “That’s RACIST”…

Hmm…well, after watching another video of black folks giving out the list then I start to lean more towards laughing…now I feel bad because I honestly wouldn’t have leaned towards shouting, “That’s racist!” if I had of watched this video first…I understand now that this is all in fun…

Styles P enters into the literary world…


amazon.com

here’s a description of the novel from amazon.com:

Jake Billings is usually cool under pressure, but when two stick-up kids rob his record store, Jake opens fire on them, landing him in prison. Five days in, he receives an anonymous letter telling him that his days are numbered. But before he can find out who’s behind the threats, Jake is stabbed and ends up in a coma.

When he wakes in a hospital bed two years later, things have changed: His prison sentence has been commuted, his girlfriend is fiercely independent, and his side piece has gotten out of the street life altogether. But one thing remains: Jake’s enemy still wants him dead and is powerful enough to track him down no matter where he hides.

On the run, and with rumors circulating about a powerful, phantomlike gang called the 300 Crew, Jake will need to rely on his mantra: Trust no one—not the law, not his girl, not the street cats he helped out years ago, not even his own blood.

Lawrence Taylor….SMH


nydailynews.com

Okay, so I intentionally did not post anything regarding this story until further details were revealed. After watching his 3rd wife’s (Lynette) interview with The Insider, I figured it was time to head to the blog. Okay, so the deal is this, according to the complaint that was filed, Lawrence admitted to paying a 16 year old girl, $300 dollars for sexual acts. However, it also states that the girl told him she was 19. I honestly believe that a 16 year girl can look like a 25 year old woman these days so its no shock to me that he didn’t ask her for ID.

Now, as far as him being charged with statutory rape, he only got that charge because of her age. However, at the age of 16, I honestly believe that this girl is old enough to know the difference between right and wrong. She’s also old enough to make her own choices. Now, I don’t know what her mental state is so there is a chance that she wasn’t able to fully consent if she’s schizophrenic (not trying to be funny, but this could be the case). Or, it may very well be that everything was consensual and she was a prostitute merely making her dollars. Since she “got it in” with a celeb then it is of no surprise to me that she went running her jaws (I don’t  mean this in the NC-17 sense– my books may be R-rated, but I’m trying to keep the blog clean)

However, after watching the interview with The Insider and Lynette, I think his wife is in denial. She doesn’t believe that her husband actually had sex with the “victim.” HUH???? Even after he told people that he engaged in sexual acts and paid her $300? What was he paying $300 for if he ain’t getting nothing out the deal???

WELL, after doing a search on the latest news regarding the incident, there’s a story on wgntv.com about how a friend of the “victim” has now told investigators that the girl was lying about the whole thing. read this excerpt straight from the article…

SUFFERN, N.Y. (WPIX) – The 16-year-old prostitute, who claimed to have sex with ex-Giant Lawrence Taylor, has reportedly told a friend that the encounter was “easy money” because she “didn’t even have to f— him.”

According to investigators, the friend, who drove the teenage prostitute to meet Taylor late at night on Wednesday, May 5, told police that “they didn’t have sex, she’s lying and he’s innocent.”

well, i’ll be…that snippet of the article was posted today and written by Shelley NG on the news site. however, yesterday, there was a different story posted on nydailynews.com. In this story, Taylor is reported as saying that he never touched the girl, but touched himself (okay, this goes with the report that wgntv.com gave)…then the victim is reported as saying that she definitely had sex with him (okay, someone obviously doesn’t know what went on)…geez…which story is the truth? i guess we’ll have to see how this pans out in court.
