When ole boy first told us this a few years ago, I was like 'yeah right'. But after Eddie Murphey got caught with that other transvestite, I got a little nervous and thought that maybe there might be some truth to the story. Apparently, Eddie is just REALLY into transvestites, and he paid for Nicole/Nicholas's surgery years ago. As a matter of fact, I told him today what I had posted on here, and he was like, "Well heck, most everyone in LA knows!!"

Man, you just really never know!

For example, this is a MAN:

That belly would be quite an accomplishment for a trannie, don't you think?

these are the first preggers pics i've ever seen of him/her!

I had never seen R-ah's wife before:

ETA: I was wondering what was going on with those three braids on Deborah Cox's hair.

Looks to me like she is trying alicia keys hair style for the summer.

Re: I had never seen R-ah's wife before:
 

I don't think that's R. Kelly's wife. In the pictures I've seen of her she's a little lighter and looks ridiculously like Aaliyah.

This was a sad story to report today a young girl visiting Atlanta for the NABJ convention died in the Grady hospital. She went to the hospital yesterday, they released her she went to a different hospital last night and she died early this morning. they say she died from malaria she contracted while interning in Africa.

here is the link.

Re: Re: I had never seen R-ah's wife before:
 

Yeah, that's her. Deborah Cox's website also states it's her: "Deborah and R.Kelly
Deborah backstage with R.Kelly and his wife at the Luca Luca show.'

They had some other pix of her on another message board I read. She's a dancer and is also in "Step in the Name of Love' video dancing.

I think the girl you are referring to is Cat Wilson (daughter of Charlie Wilson). She does look like Aaliyah, but she and R-ah are supposedly just close friends.

Here's another one:

...no wonder R. is trapped in the closet...(im sorry)lol

Re: Re: Re: I had never seen R-ah's wife before:
 

Ah hah! Thanks for the clarification.

I remember there being an article in the Chicago Sun-Times about his wife and how come she wasn't speaking out about his charges and how her own family couldn't reach her. Sounded like R. had her on lock down.

Am I the only one who is sad about this?
 

I always thought that he was the one of the coolest white men out there. He will sorely be missed...


TV news veteran Jennings dies at 67
Lung cancer claims longtime ABC anchorman

Peter Jennings: 1938-2005

NEW YORK - Peter Jennings was the face of ABC News.


The urbane Canadian-born broadcaster delivered the nightly news to Americans over five decades. He was there for every big story, be it war or weather.

Jennings, who announced in April that he had lung cancer, died Sunday at his New York home, ABC News President David Westin said in a statement. He was 67.

"Peter has been our colleague, our friend, and our leader in so many ways," Westin said. "None of us will be the same without him."

With Tom Brokaw and Dan Rather, Jennings was part of a triumvirate that dominated network news for more than two decades, through the birth of cable news and the Internet. His smooth delivery and years of international reporting made him particularly popular among urban dwellers.

"Peter was born to be an anchor," Brokaw said Monday on NBC's Today. He said he met Jennings in 1966 covering Ronald Reagan's campaign for California governor and "we had an instant friendship."

"Peter, of the three of us, was our prince. He seemed so timeless. He had such elan and style," Brokaw said.

Rather, appearing on ABC's Good Morning America tribute to Jennings, noted that beneath Jennings' polished exterior was a fierce competitor.

"If Peter was in the area code, I didn't sleep," Rather said.

Jennings dominated the ratings from the late 1980s to the mid-'90s, when Brokaw surpassed him. He remained a Canadian until 2003, when he became a U.S. citizen, saying it had nothing to do with his politics — he did it for his family.

"He was a warm and loving and surprisingly sentimental man," said fellow ABC anchor Ted Koppel.

Jennings deeply regretted dropping out of high school, and he would have wanted that lesson passed along, Koppel said. He made up for it by becoming a student of the world, studying cultures and their people for the rest of his life.

"No one could ad lib like Peter," said Barbara Walters. "Sometimes he drove me crazy because he knew every detail. ... He just died much too young."

Jennings was wherever the big story was. He logged more than 60 hours on the air during the week of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, offering a soothing sense of continuity during a troubled time.

"There are a lot of people who think our job is to reassure the public every night that their home, their community and their nation is safe," he told author Jeff Alan. "I don't subscribe to that at all. I subscribe to leaving people with essentially — sorry it's a cliche — a rough draft of history. Some days it's reassuring, some days it's absolutely destructive."

Jennings' announcement four months ago that the longtime smoker would begin treatment for lung cancer came as a shock.

"I will continue to do the broadcast," he said, his voice husky, in a taped message that night. "On good days, my voice will not always be like this."

Although Jennings occasionally came to the office between chemotherapy treatments, he never again appeared on air.

"He knew that it was an uphill struggle. But he faced it with realism, courage, and a firm hope that he would be one of the fortunate ones," Westin said. "In the end, he was not."

Broadcasting was the family business for Jennings. His father, Charles Jennings, was the first person to anchor a nightly national news program in Canada and later became head of the Canadian Broadcasting Corp.'s news division. A picture of his father was displayed prominently in Jennings' office off ABC's newsroom.


ABC News
ABC News' Peter Jennings died today at his home in New York. Jennings, who announced in April that he had lung cancer, was 67.


Charles Jennings' son had a Saturday morning radio show in Ottawa at age 9. Jennings never completed high school or college, and began his career as a reporter at a radio station in Brockton, Ontario. He quickly earned an anchor job at Canadian Television.

Sent south to cover the Democratic national convention in 1964, the handsome, dashing correspondent was noticed by ABC's news president. Jennings was offered a reporting job and left Canada for New York.

As the third-place news network, ABC figured its only chance was to go after young viewers. Jennings was picked to anchor the evening news and debuted on Feb. 1, 1965. He was 26.

"It was a little ridiculous when you think about it," Jennings told author Barbara Matusow. "A twenty-six-year-old trying to compete with Cronkite, Huntley and Brinkley. I was simply unqualified."

Critics savaged him as a pretty face. Using the Canadian pronunciations for some words and once misidentifying the Marine Corps' anthem as "Anchors Aweigh" didn't help. The experiment ended three years later.

He later described the humbling experience as an opportunity, "because I was obliged to figure out who I was and what I really wanted to be."

Assigned as a foreign correspondent, Jennings thrived. He established an ABC News bureau in Beirut, Lebanon, and became an expert on the Middle East. He won a Peabody Award for a 1974 profile of Egyptian President Anwar Sadat.

On the scene at the Munich Olympics in 1972, Jennings was perfectly placed to cover the hostage-taking of Israeli athletes by an Arab terrorist group. He and a crew hid in the athletes' quarters for a close-in view of the drama.

Jennings returned to the evening news a decade after his unceremonious departure. In 1978, ABC renamed its broadcast World News Tonight, and instituted a three-person anchor team: Frank Reynolds based in Washington, Max Robinson from Chicago and Jennings, by then ABC's chief foreign correspondent, from London.

Following Reynolds' death from cancer, ABC abandoned the multi-anchor format and Jennings became sole anchor on Sept. 5, 1983. Brokaw became solo anchor at NBC just days later. Rather had taken the CBS anchor job in 1981.

Starting in 1986, Jennings began a decade on top of the ratings. His international experience served him well explaining stories like the collapse of European communism, the first Gulf War and the terrorist bombing of an airplane over Lockerbie, Scotland. He took pride that World News Tonight, as its name suggested, took a more worldly view than its rivals. Fans responded to his smart, controlled style.

"When it's clearly an emotional experience for the audience, the anchor should not add his or her emotional layers," Jennings said in an interview with the Minneapolis Star Tribune.

Two-thirds of local broadcasters responding to a 1993 survey by Broadcasting & Cable magazine said Jennings was the best network anchor. Washington Journalism Review named him anchor of the year three straight years.

With Americans looking more inward in the mid to late-1990s, Brokaw surpassed Jennings in the ratings. ABC was still a close No. 2, however. When Brokaw stepped down last November, followed shortly by Rather, ABC began an advertising campaign stressing Jennings' experience — an ironic twist given how his ABC News career began.

Jennings' cancer diagnosis came only a month after Rather left the anchor chair.

Restlessly curious, Jennings pushed ABC News to use the turn of the century for a massive historical study. He co-wrote a book, The Century, with Todd Brewster and anchored a marathon 25-hour special ending Jan. 1, 2000. Jennings and Brewster also traveled the backroads to write "In Search of America.

Jennings also led a documentary team at ABC News, which struck a chord in 2000 with the high-rated spiritual special The Search for Jesus.

"I have never spent a day in my adult life where I didn't learn something," Jennings told the Saturday Evening Post. "And if there is a born-again quality to me, that's it."

Like Rather and Brokaw, Jennings wasn't entirely comfortable stuck to a studio. He traveled around the world to cover stories and, when he didn't journey to Asia to cover the aftermath of the tsunami less than four months before his cancer diagnosis, it was noticed.

He is survived by his wife, Kayce Freed, and his two children, Elizabeth, 25, and Christopher, 23.

Transexual/Transvestite/Drag Queen
 

A transsexual (trannie) is a person who was born into the body of the opposite gender. For example, a woman may be born into a male body, and then have gender reassignment surgery.

A transvestite is someone who dresses up as the opposite sex for sexual gratification, usually a man, but maintains the gender and body theya re born with.

Drag Queens are usually gay men, that like to dress up as women to perform, however, they can also be transexuals.

Eddie Murphy picked up a trannie hooker named Shalimar. Y'all know I am trying to find a picture!

I was saddened to hear about Peter Jennings also. DId anyone see the President when he spoke about it this morning? He couldn't even say his name right. It's Peter Jennings, how hard is that? :eek:

I was saddened. There was a part of me that hoped he would return to work. I found myself on various days turning to ABC News to see if he was on the air.


:(

I wish he'd just pirouette and get it over with.

LMAO! She is rather unfortunate looking.

Anyway, I felt a little :( when I heard this. Those cancer sticks are the worst ever.

Nah see, I was't gone even say naythen!!

LOL!

-i couldnt help myself.lol-

and I really am sad that Peter Jennings has died. I used to look at him every Mon-Fri night when I was younger.

LMAO @ 'unfortunate looking'!!

I am also sad about Peter Jennings' death. :(

The thing is, he quit years ago. However, he started up again after 9/11. Many people with lung cancer had stopped smoking. My soror/friend's father will be having more tests b/c his x-ray doesn't look good. It was thought that he had pneumonia. The doctor's don't think that's what it is. He was a smoker, but quit over 20 years ago. We are praying it's not cancer.

It almost makes you think that quitting smoking isn't a good thing. :confused:

hey
 

someone asked for a pic of Eddie's "fling" lol
click here then scroll down to the pic:

ummm "i'll be got dang its a man- man- man"

Now hold up this is the 3rd time I've laughed like I'm at home today. Maybe I'm feeling a lil' silly because I'm sleepy. Coming on GC was not the smartest idea.

Hmmm...I didn't know that. Wow.

FOUNDER OF EBONY/JET DIES
 

my prayers go out to his family.

So sad!

It seems like all we are hearing about are deaths. (smh)

I know it's a part of life, but...

Re: Re: I had never seen R-ah's wife before:
 

Naw that's definitely her but that pic doesn't do her any justice.

Re: FOUNDER OF EBONY/JET DIES
 

So sad....

I use to pass the Ebony building all the time on my way to work.

Peter was who I always turned on for news. He has been the anchor on there since I was a little girl. I can't believe he is dead. :(

Re: FOUNDER OF EBONY/JET DIES
 

Aw man, I think he was frat too. RIP:(

^^
RIP to Messrs. Johnson and Jennings.

I understand that folks had issues with Ebony and its perceived fluffiness, but I think it was very necessary, particularly in its early days.

Vivvy at the polo
 

http://www.hellomagazine.com/celebri.../01/celebpolo/

And funny commentary from the Corsair about it:

Out: Bridgehampton Polo. Polo, once the sport of Kings has devolved, alas, into a sport of jokers -- at least in Bridgehampton. :p Choire Sicha and Lizzy Ratner warned us, now Hello!Magazine supplies the physical evidence of the demise:

"Silver screen hunk Matt Dillon was on hand to present the winner's trophy at this year's Mercedes Benz Cup in the exclusive summer resort of the Hamptons. He wasn't the only heart-throb in attendance, though, as Argentine model Ignacio Figueras was competing in the event. The 28-year-old, who has just signed as the new face of Ralph Lauren's Polo Black fragrance, has been playing professionally for over a decade.

"Kill Bill star Vivica A Fox :rolleyes: meanwhile seemed more taken with her pet pooch than the excitement unfolding on the field. The high-kicking actress, elegant in a wide-brimmed hat and halterneck dress, was photographed cuddling with her furry friend in one of the hospitality tents."

Wow, like Vivika Fox, Matt Dillon and an Argentine model; what, was Lou Ferrigno unavailable (Averted Gaze)?

Twitney Spears and Babyperson Kaleb
 

Twit actually looks half-decent in this photo. Kaleb isn't as cute as he was when he was a new babyperson, but ah well.

http://img.timeinc.net/people/i/2005...22/bspears.jpg

He looks like his mama

Better get some pratice, Brittany! That bun will be coming out of the oven next month!:p

I'm very sad to hear about Peter Jennings and John Johnson.:( RIP.

Condolences to both families.

what is she having?

Re: hey
 

I don't think that is Shalimar. Shalimar had competed in pageants and I would hope would be much more glamorous. Also, she/he was Samoan, and that looks like a skinny white boy to me.

ohh im mad that it sounds like Shalamar (sp)- the group lol
