CELEB NEWS

So let's talk about T.I. and his f*ckery (c'mon, son!), "Pretty Boy" (yuck) Lloyd and his (lack of) hair, Willie from Day26 (sexy) and his horrendous math (doh!), and a football star player who was bored and messed around with his own sister (barf)

Alright...I'll throw in some GOOD promo in there too...Guess who I'm going to spotlight...this can NOT be a surprise anymore hahahaha



First up: T.I.

Did this guy not JUST GET OUT OF PRISON???

And I'm with 50 on this one...Tiny, you gotta help ya man out here. You're not really pulling in new money. Your income is from royalties on things you did YEARS ago and from that reality show that SUCKED. T.I. brings home the shiny brand spanking new money and I'm sure he has projects lined up. Your record is probably clean (or cleaner than your hubby's at the very least). Just like in T.I.'s new movie, Takers, he can't go back this soon.

But on another point though, T.I. is an idiot for this. He better have a DAMN good explanation for having that crap in his car. I mean...C'MON, SON!!! Really? A man of your status is messing with METH and X?! METH?!?!!? Low class, my dude. Low class

Ok Second thing: Lloyd and his hair

R&B singer Lloyd cut off his signature "long hair don't care" for a good cause because it does seem he cares! I did Locks of Love a few years ago and they sent me a nice little certificate for my donation! It's pretty cool of him to make his donation. He's still not attractive to me and I still don't enjoy his music, but I'm glad he's bringing some attention to the cause. It's quite a bit he donated!






















Third thing: Willie's grammar and math

It's not really NEWS but it really irked me when I saw this on Twitter yesterday.



It's really obnoxious. Ok fine. You're a celeb. You BALL HARD. But come on! I'm going to let the grammar and spelling slide for now because it is after all just Twitter. But the math...ARGH!!! I don't even KNOW how he got his final total for his yearly expenditures for undershirts. If that's his real math skills, yuck. If he jacked up the numbers to look better, yuck. SMH. Just stick to singing half naked. Don't try your hand at accounting or PR. But I'm just being silly.

And lastly: The Sad and Gross story of Tony Washington

Basically, he and his sister sexed it up once or twice. He ended up getting arrested for incest. He's now a registered sex offender. But because it's a SPECIAL kind of sex offender, he's black listed in the NFL even though he would have been a STAR to bank on. No. Rapists and molesters are the okay kind of sex offender. But someone who made a bad (consensual) mistake while still a minor, not the okay kind. I mean yes, it's gross what he and his sister did but I feel bad for the guy. He worked hard to try to be better than his situation. That lapse in judgment really wasn't anything worth more than a funny look and then you move on from it. Read his story and decide for yourself. Warning: The writing is horrendous. It looks like multiple segments of fluff pieces shot up with commas thrown onto a page and calling it an article. It was frustrating to read. Maybe you'll have a better experience with it. Great photos though!

AND OH YES! I can't wait for September 14, 2010!!!



I am SO excited for this album to drop!!! Two singles have already dropped... Bottoms Up feat. Nicki Minaj and Can't Be Friends. By the way, the video for Can't Be Friends leaked. Trey Songz is so hot, his VIDEOS leak. CRAZY!

Watch out for his album!!! Support him!! Check it all out on his website!!!

PASSION PAIN PLEASURE

News Reel

All Types of News from the past week or so

some horrid

some sports

some entertainment

some science

all that have some kinda !!! value

you know how i roll

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

WHAT THE FFFFFFFFFF is WRONG with kids today?!
No seriously. There is something SOCIALLY wrong here. VERY wrong. That poor child they attacked is scarred for life. It would be a miracle if he can have a normal rest of his childhood and adolescence and move onto healthy relationships as an adult. How did they even come up with something so horrendous to do to these people?! What could the victims have possibly done to deserve this torture?! How F'd up do you have to be to think of this atrocity and then exocute it? I just don't understand.



~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

FIRST ASIAN TO WIN THE PGA CHAMPIONSHIPS!!!


SOMEONE BEAT THE GREAT TIGER WOODS AT THE PGA CHAMPIONSHIPS!!!

That's some insanely happy news! Not that someone beat one of the few minorities in the golf arena, but that more Asians are making a name for themselves in the public arena. WOOH!


~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

More sports news: You may have been following the Plaxico Burress legal drama. The man shot himself in the leg. The same leg that carried the rest of his athletic body to the touchdown zone to help the NY Giants win the Superbowl two years ago. And for his own stupidity, he gets TWENTY MONTHS IN JAIL!!! People have gotten off easier for more. LOTS of people are outraged at this heavy sentence. I'm also not so sure 20 months is the answer...



~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~


Take a look at THIS:

NOM NOM NOM

Can we get a few of these in the NYC Subway tunnels? Hahaha Seriously.



~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~


How many of you have heard Jay-Z's Run This Town (feat. Rihanna and Kanye West)?

How many of you have been waiting on a hard hitting video to go with it?

Apparently Germany and the UK didn't have to wait too long because it has already premiered over there while us silly Americans are still waiting. So, I bring this to you...a LINK...because I don't know how to rip rando vids from sites yet. Sorry. Until I figure it out, enjoy the link.



~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~


AND...for you travelers... We all know about the SUPER DUPER FAST bullet train in Shanghai that runs...ONLY in Shanghai. It's so expensive that locals generally don't use it to get themselves to the airport. Only gung-ho foreign travelers like me take it. The only reason the Chinese government keeps it running is to show everyone else their accomplishment. Well NOW there is one that is more practical and probably just as fast. This one takes you between SHANGHAI and BEIJING. Lots of business people and the ilk would find great use out of this one. This 220 mi/hr bullet train is the newest show-off project. Can't wait!

That's all for now folks. Watch. Click. Read. Ruminate. Comment.

Mr. McNair



R.I.P Steve McNair


Take no Prisoners POV? That's Me!

So it should come as no surprise to you that I am often disappointed with the coverage (and sympathy) given to athletes and celebrities. No one has the balls to ask the real questions? Come on....! Yesterday I was reading different articles...trying to get an idea of what actually happened...before I made my judgment. I came across an article:
http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/9777174/Don't-be-so-quick-to-make-McNair-a-hero which just made so much sense and came from the same viewpoint I was coming from. What's this?! A journalist with balls that gets to the root? Wow! Journalists often leave the big boys (athletes and handsome actors) alone, standing by the "they're men...its what they do" view. This guy...none of that.

------
The article linked above is written by Jason Whitlock, a FOXSports.com Columnist and details his views on the McNair situation- the possible murder-suicide. Below is my reaction.
--------

When I heard the news of McNair's death...my initial reaction was (as you can probably guess) unsympathetic to say the least. I started with the usual "Oh no...how did it happen?" but mine was more like "Oh no......how did it....who or what was he doing?". I have no pity for these rich athletes (ask me about Michael Vick sometime...) who "make mistakes". Athletes get the world handed to them (and oh do they take...and take) and get away with...well...
murder. I was not surprised to find out that he was killed doing something he should NOT have been doing. It IS a loss...I'm not a total heartless bitch...but I feel more for his family and friends...and fans. You should have kept it in your pants and at home with your wife McNair...(no matter what possible agreement you and your wife may or may not have had).

As for the girl...she disgusts me as well...though I can’t say that if the opportunity presented itself (that of a rich NFL'er) that I wouldn’t do the same. I do have morals...I do not date or talk to married men or even men with girlfriends (though when I was 16 I did engage in a relationship with a guy who had a girlfriend...it still haunts me). I do not sleep with men simply because of their status or money...or the gifts that they are able to lavish upon me. But I cannot sit here and say that I would turn down a millionaire...the opportunity has never presented itself...so I cant be 100% sure. My anger and annoyance is not just directed towards McNair...but an opportunist is an opportunist is an opportunist. I sit and look at my bills and sometimes think that some NFL person could write one check and my problems would be solved and it would be no skin off of their back. Eh...bastards.

As for the kids, as the author of the article mentions, they are really the ones who are losing and I have to agree. I hope that they had no idea that their father was sleazy...and yet...I hope that they did so that the shock and scandal surrounding this will hurt them less. He is being championed as this wonderful and amazing guy (and maybe he was...) but all I can see is a man who was killed in his veritable "love shack" possibly by his "jump-off" as she is so affectionately termed in the article. I, like Mr. Whitlock, just want the cloudiness surrounding his legacy and his untimely end to be cleared. Yes...he was an amazing footballer, and yes, he did a lot for his community but, much like Whitlock, I am more interested in the family legacy he left behind; the roots of our society start in our families. Was he a good father? Possibly, though, he obviously had begun to slack on his time at home (not the love den…HOME!). Was he a good husband (and, therefore, role model)? Eh...no... Even if there is some sort of a marital agreement (how could his wife not QUESTION the many absences…the bills for another car and apartment…) of infidelity...I personally would not act on it. You have dedicated yourself 100% to your significant other and your children and family. If you cannot do that...you deserve to be alone, not sneaking off with some young girl...

When will guys learn to keep it in their pants??? I'm going to be vulgar...a hole is a hole...it may be tighter for a few years but eventually it will get just as used and then you will have nothing but some girl there for your money. Stick with what you got...

*Highlights* - Kobe & Lebron Puppet Commercials pt. 2

In case you haven't stayed up to date with the newest installments of the Lebron & Kobe Nike puppet commercials, here they are - all together! It's unfortunate that we won't be getting our dream final of Black Mamba Kobe vs. King James. Hopefully Superman will keep the NBA finals interesting and competitive.

Here are the commercials - catch up:












These TV ads have been some of the most effective I've seen in years. Not only did they revive the idea of intense NBA rivalries (something that has been lacking since the Reggie Miller, Patrick Ewing, Alonzo Mourning, Michael Jordan days), but Nike is probably going to get a nice boost in sales or at least market relevance.

Without question, this ad campaign gets high honors - CUM LAUDE:
