If this thing is true between Eddie and Johnny, that makes me wonder how much truth it is about the other actors names that were mentioned and their status. I wonder if there is a "DL circle" and they so eloquently put it. When discussing this at work the only person they were shocked about was Will Smith, cuz they thought that him and Jada were probably just freaks. I don't know how Nick Cannon got in this, but I wonder how these actors feel about this email going around about them?

Wait a minute? Nia dated Mayce Edward Christopher Webber III? How did I miss that? Yes, the metrosexual-BGA Jr. and Fiddy definitely don't measure up. :p

I wouldn't let my husband leave the house with an orange sport coat on. That's not cute.

Toni Braxton really needs to find something to do other than think of ways to be naked on the sly. I don't want to see her butt, breasts, or anything else while she is singing.

50 cent looks scary. I would be afraid to sit near him for fear that he would just jump over and bite me or transform into some alien. He is creepy. :eek:

Another month in hospital for Coretta Scott King

By ERNIE SUGGS

Coretta Scott King has been able to put weight on her right leg and is able to communicate with her four children -- telling them "I love you," her doctor said today.

King's personal physician, Maggie Mermin, said the wife of the late Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., is making significant improvements from a stroke she suffered two weeks ago, but she will still spend at least a month at Piedmont Hospital going through rehabilitation.

I am expecting more improvement. She doesn't have to be back to normal in order for us to release her. We send people home for home physical therapy all the time," Mermin said Friday at a noon press conference at the hospital. "But because she needs such intense therapy, we thought we would just keep her here and do it here."

Mermin said King has been transferred to a rehabilitation bed and is taking three hours of physical, speech and occupational therapy a day.

King suffered a major stroke and mild heart attack on Aug. 16. The stroke left her unable to speak and severely weak on her right side.

But since the stroke, Mermin said King has made progress, including being able to sing and speak a few words.

"She has said two or three short sentences," Mermin said. "When she sees here children, she says 'I love you.' At first she was only repeating things that the speech therapist said to her, or [the speech therapist] would start a song and [King] would start to sing it. Now she is coming up with what she wants to say, which is new. Every day, there is a little progress."

King's right arm is still very weak, but Mermin said she has been able to transfer weight to her right leg when she is being moved.

"She is learning to use her left hand and relearning to use her right hand," Mermin said. "Her personality is the same. Her intellect is the same and her smile is the same. The right side of her face is moving a little more, so she is looking like herself."

Mermin said that King has been a model patient, although she refused to use a feeding tube, which was recommended by the speech therapist.

"She was really clear about that, she did not want it," Mermin said. "We said okay, but you have to get enough calories."

King is strong enough to feed herself with her left hand, said Mermin.

Hilda Tompkins, a friend of the King family, said all of King's children have been touched by the many "expressions of concern and care during Mrs. King's illness."

Tompkins said two funds have been set up for people eager to make donations to King:

• The Coretta Scott King Scholarship Fund at Antioch College

795 Livermore St., Yellow Springs, Ohio, 45387

• The Coretta Scott King Health & Wellness Fund

Citizens Trust Bank, P.O. Box 4809, Atlanta, Ga. 30302

Sheree Smith received a new benz, the house they lived in, a $900,000 lump sum, and $24,000 per month for alimony and child support.

ROFLOL. I guess she is trying to show she still has it!

She thought she was dating him. I cut her and then she moved on....

Would you really be surprised though??? NOTHING surprises me anymore, even before Karamo, lol. Sistas we've got to realize the dudes we LEAST expect to be on the low are the ones who are most likely to be getting their backs blown out by some dude :eek:

I believe there is and I wouldn't be surprised if any of the dudes mentioned are amongst it :o

Rap mogul 'Suge Knigh't shot in leg during party

Associated Press
Published on: 08/28/05
MIAMI BEACH, Fla. — Rap mogul Marion "Suge" Knight was shot in the leg early Sunday during a party hosted by Grammy-winning hip hop artist Kanye West, police said.

Knight, 40, was hospitalized in good condition, police said. He was shot during a celebrity-studded party at the Shore Club, one of the many celebrations in Miami Beach ahead of the MTV Video Music Awards scheduled Sunday night, said Miami Beach Police Officer Bobby Hernandez

Sonja Mauro, a guest at the club, said a shot in the party's VIP section rang out shortly before 1 a.m.

"I was in there and I heard a pop and I ran out and got trampled," she said.

People attending the party began screaming and running for the doors, she said.

Celebrities who attended included West, actress Jessica Alba and comedian Eddie Murphy, but it was unclear whether they were still there when the shooting took place.

Knight co-founded the pioneering rap label Death Row Records and hit the charts in the 1990s with West Coast stars including Snoop Dogg and Tupac Shakur.

Knight was convicted in 1992 of assault and weapons violations and was placed on probation. In 1996, he was jailed for five years for violating probation after he and several associates, including Shakur, were recorded on videotape beating a gang rival at a Las Vegas hotel. Shakur was later shot to death in Las Vegas.

Relatives of slain rapper Notorious B.I.G. have also accused Knight of involvement in B.I.G.'s death, though police have never named Knight as a suspect.

Knight continues to operate his label, now called Tha Row.

Attempts to reach a spokesman for West early Sunday were unsuccessful. A message left with an MTV representative was not immediately returned.

Wow, that man really does know how to "take a lickin' and keep on tickin'"!:cool:

LOLOL Energizer Bunny ain't got nothing on him! He just keeps going'...and goin'.....ang goin'

Exactly...it's Hollywood...we know EVERY single detail of Jen Aniston and Brad Pitt's situation because that's what the game is about. When gay-ness is part of the equation however, there's always this nasty silence and big payouts (Will Smith, TOm Cruise (and his contracts come with an Oscar attached, supposedly...))

Now I am not saying all the time, but with A-list actors/entertainers where it's too hush-hush...that's typically the case (IMO).

Also, the Will Smith payout (see above) was confirmed by someone I know who is very close with the first wife of Will...she is PAID and everyone who knows them KNOWs that he is bi and that it's easier to live that lifestyle if you have a sig. other who is
in the business" and "understands." Not the GDI equivalent of a famous person...(i.e. it's easier to tell you BGLO husband that you are at Regional and will be staying in the hotel all week, not answering your phone a lot during the day and etc, etc. than to tell your mechanic husband who didn't even go to school...)

On another note...why Toni Braxton husband look like John Legend's uncle or somebody...?

The world is definately going to pot when Denzel is #2 to Usher

AND

How'd "Fiddy" even make the list?

With LL - I really would. He just seems like the poster child for walking testosterone. He doesn't even seem very Metro -conceited - yes, but not Metro. I know I've posted it before - but as much as I love him, I've always thought Will had tendencies, so I'm not surprised that there are rumors flying about him. I do however have a hard time believing Jada would put up with that.
