Solange was on Enews last night and they showed some pics from the premiere and from a side view she is a little thicker around the waist. I think that little pleat thingy in front masks it if you are doing a straight front view. She also had on a suede jacket that was tight and she sat in a position that seemed kinda awkward but you couldn't tell definitely if she was pregnant or not.

If it was at ANY casino in Atlantic City, that money belongs to my mom and I would thank her to please give it back! My mom's been going up there for a number of years, and ain't hardly won jack yet!

Like in these two? I know they are a little small, but you can still see a little pudge in the tummy. It could just be the way the dress is made too. They could be doing this to get the girl some attention. Cause I know I've never paid her any attention until after I heard she was married, and even then I just wanted to see if she was pregnant.

Good job, detective!

Yep, much different. Brandy wore similar type of dresses to minimize little Sarai's presence.

AKA2D '91 04-07-2004 07:53 PM

All we have to do is wait in "x" amount of months to see if she really is/was preggo or not.

I got "5" on it that she is... :p

MacDowell to Get New 'Do in 'Beauty Shop'
Wed Apr 14, 2:13 AM ET Add Entertainment - Reuters to My Yahoo!


By Liza Foreman

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Andie MacDowell (news), Alfre Woodard (news) and Bryce Wilson are joining the cast of MGM's Queen Latifah comedy "Beauty Shop."


MacDowell will play a conservative Southern socialite who goes through a rebirth when she follows Queen Latifah's character from her fancy hairdressers, run by Jorge (Kevin Bacon (news)), to her new salon. Woodard is set to play Miss Josephine, the shop's Afrocentric stylist, who spouts Maya Angelou poetry. Wilson, meanwhile, will play James, a con/truck driver turned hairstylist. Nobody can figure out whether he is the ultimate metrosexual or actually gay.


~The cast makeup and their brief blurbs makes me "anxious" about how the movie will turn out in final product.~

Rapper Lil' Kim Charged With Obstruction
1 hour, 34 minutes ago
http://us.news1.yimg.com/us.yimg.com...r138496818.jpg
By LARRY NEUMEISTER, Associated Press Writer

NEW YORK - Rapper Lil' Kim was charged Wednesday with conspiracy to commit perjury, making false statements and obstructing justice in connection with a 2001 shootout involving her entourage that left one man wounded.

She turned herself in at U.S. District Court in Manhattan, where she was scheduled to appear in court later in the day.

Also charged in the case were Damion Butler, one of her managers, bodyguard Suif Jackson and a friend, Monique Dopwell.

Court papers unsealed Wednesday listed the rapper as Kimberly Jones, but noted that she is known professionally as Lil' Kim.

I don't think that this movie will make it. Why are these people selected for the movie? Kevin Bacon? Andie McDowell? Alfre Woodard? What ever happened to the comediennes that were supposed to be in the film, like Mo'Nique? Bryce may be the only person in this present line-up besides the Queen that makes sense. This movie will not live up to the hype and anticipation that was surrounding it.

411 for the week of April 19th, 2004:

Get well wishes go out to attorney Johnny Cochran who recently underwent brain surgery. His family says he is doing well and his illness is not life threatening. The 66-year-old flamboyant attorney is best known for getting helping O.J. Simpson beat his murder wrap.

Vivica A. Fox says she is no home-wrecker! Earlier this week there were reports that the actress was stepping out with rapper Snoop Dog, who is married. Vivica says she and Snoop are friends and have been friends for years. She says just because she dated one rapper (50 Cent) doesn’t mean she is dating them all.

Jody Watley’s sister makes a change! Porn star and actress Midori used to be one of the leading figures in the adult entertainment industry until she decided to quit the business and become celibate. Midori is born again and emerging herself in religion. A lot of people had no idea Midori was related to singer Jody Watley. When the truth came out Jody didn’t deny it, she says she didn’t approve of her sister’s career choice but she loved her anyway. Midori got out of the business just in time. Last week the porn industry in California was ordered to shut down for two months when a male actor was found to be HIV positive. He allegedly had sex with over 19 other female porn stars and they all had to be tested. So far two came back HIV positive. Midori had worked with the actor in past movies.

Dang! That's some way out $hit! Sad thing is they were probably the BEST tamales he'd ever made.

"We saw the flesh and the tamales, and our first impression was that he was making tamales with the flesh of the deceased, although it has yet to be confirmed."

I wouldn't want to be on the tem to have to "confirm" the tamales made fro someone's leg pieces. I am sure it's some sort of DNA test but...nasty!

From People Daily...

After considering several offers, Harvard MBA Kwame Jackson said during a taping of CNN's "Larry King Live" this week that he's close to finalizing a deal to work with billionaire mogul Mark Cuban.

"It's going to take quite a bit of time to flush out the details," Jimmy Floyd, Jackson's manager, tells PEOPLE.

Cuban's offer includes handling an investment portfolio and working on operations for the Dallas Mavericks, the basketball team owned by Cuban, according to reports.

Oh no!

I always found her intriguing. One thing I really liked about her...everyone had to work the counter at some point. Her family (I don't know if they still do, but this was true at least up until 2000) had to work in a store at least one day a year.
