As Summer Winds Down, the NEWS Never Ends
 

Please continue! :D

Lisa Raye
 

In regards to Lisa Raye, I have met her and she is very pretty and nice. However, during our conversation I kept asking myself, "Is her name Lisa or Boomqueesha?" :eek: LOL...

I wish her the best of luck.....

according to supacindy (who needs an editor!):

^^^
Is this for the part of Effie? I think, since they named some of the people who have tried out for the part. And where the devil they got Free's name from? I have posted 2x on who they should pick. They need to come on with this (and also renegoiate with Usher)!

Why is Lil' Mo suing Ja Rule now? Wasn't that song out about 5 years ago?

BV--Iron Mike making porn not true?
 

As if Mike Tyson's career isn’t low enough, word is coming out that Iron Mike’s next career move may be into porno films. Apparently the former champ was approached by reps for porn star Jenna Jameson’s camp to co-star in an upcoming X-rated film.


"I just talked to a gentleman called Jimmy who's involved with Jenna Jameson," Tyson told Britain’s Zoo Magazine. "They said they were interested in getting me involved in the adult film industry. But I would need the money up front."


But according to DogHouseBoxing.com, Jameson has never considered doing anything with Tyson (she now only makes films with her husband). A rep from Jameson's company, Club Jenna, says they have never contacted Tyson.


"We don’t usually comment on rumors, but no: That is not going to happen," Club Jenna spokesperson Ellie Reeve told XBiz. "I don’t know how these things get started."


Looks like Mike might need to find another way to pay off his debts.

Venus and Serena at the IVY

I like their sandals.

LOL...Me too!!!! I was thinking the same thing.

Those girls' feet are jacked up! (But the sandals ARE fly!!)

Serena is getting kinda extra thick. (Although, it could be the size of the picture that's making her look so big....) I know from "For Real" that she wasn't training as much because of an injury. She needs to get back in the gym. It took a long time for Venus to put on weight, and she is still kind of small. However, Serena looks like she has the ability to blow up like those sisters if she lets herself go. She definitely needs to stay on top of her weight.

LOL. See, I was gonna say "why didn't they get a pedicure for those feet" but I didn't want to be mean. But I'm glad someone else noticed that!!

True but Serena has beautiful legs!

I am actually feeling Venus' jewelry, as well. I noticed the hammer toe siatuation (Venus) myself but was like "who knows what may have happened..." shoot sometimes a sistah just can't get a pedicure...or maybe someone asked at the spur of the moment if they wanted to go to the Ivy.

Also, what the hayle is Serena looking for? She is looking hard for whatever it is she lost.

i'm glad venus got those eye brows under control. when we were watching her wimbledon final, i told my mom that she needed an arching in the worst way!

Fantasia may star in "Dream Girls"
 

You must be petite, cuz Serena does not look big to me (compared to me) :D. But you are right about the fact that Serena will probably have a weight issue when she stops playing tennis, and Venus probably won't.

DESTINY'S CHILD'S LAST PERFORMANCE
Wednesday August 10, 2005


CBS has announced that its Fashion Rocks special on September 9 will feature the final TV performance for Destiny's Child. The special will also feature David Bowie, Duran Duran, Alicia Keys and Rob Thomas.

Did anyone notice how Venus' eyebrows were drawn out to meet her eyeliner on the last episode of their show? It was when she was dressed up and doing her little interview. It looked awful. I hope that's not a style that is coming out. I refuse...

I LOVE this picture!! Oprah's Legend Ball
 

I bought that issue of her magazine just to read the article about the legends. Good stuff!

Beautiful, Powerful sistas!! Brothers better never ever say that they can't find a good Black woman!

Sidenote: Ashanti looks pregnant...:rolleyes:

that is such a lovely picture. and, how many sorority member are on there?? quite a bit! a great testimony to our organizations! :)

Ummm, why does Jada just look dirty, I'm not feeling that look at all.

Will looks like he just had a trip up a mountain. They both look scruffy.

LOL. She was performing at OZZFEST, not Essence Fest! LOL

The perfect look for that venue. :o

ETA: Great Legend's Ball pic! Yay! Oprah!
I know many love to hate her, but this is truly a wonderful thing!

Lil' Mo Filing Lawsuit Against Ja Rule, Murder Inc. & Def Jam

R&B singer Lil' Mo intends to sue Ja Rule, Murder Inc. Records and Def Jam for $15 million dollars in unpaid royalties stemming from the 2001 hit song "Put It On Me."

The song was a huge hit in the summer of 2001 and helped Ja and company become household names.

"That [song] helped boost his career." Lil' Mo told Allhiphop.com. "That was a huge song. I helped make him an icon - so they have to pay."

Mo claims that she owned 10 percent of the song's publishing and has sought a lawyer to attempt to acquire the money owed her.

"I had to search for the right lawyer that would take the case so they wouldn't have any ties to Murder Inc. or Def Jam or anything to do with that song," Lil’ Mo revealed. "I told the lawyer 'it's not about the money, it's about the principle.' Technically, off of that I could have retired or I could have gotten a crazy publishing deal."

According to Mo, letters of intent to sue have been sent to Murder Inc. and Def Jam.

“They never took any of my calls,” Lil’ Mo said. “I wasn't even going to do that, but I believe in giving people that common courtesy like 'this is what is going down.'"

Mo states that while Ja and company where getting paid upwards of $50,000 a show, she was performing for free.

"This is beyond personal, this is business," Mo told Allhiphop.com. "This is my livelihood as an artist. We don't make money until the label makes money so as a songwriter that was a part of my career that I was supposed to receive a substantial amount of money."

Representatives for Murder Inc. and Def Jam didn't return requests for comment.

She looks the same size she always is to me :confused:

I have some similar to the ones Serena has on :cool:

I SWEAR he favors my daddy in this pic, especially with the grey in the beard :o

Vivvy starring in Whitless biopic?
 

It's too early in the morning for this s***.


Friend of Whitney (and Star Jones), Miss Vivica A. Fox :rolleyes: reveals to TV Guide's Nelson Branco that she is planning to star in and produce a TV biopic based on the tumultuous - to say the least - career of Houston. :eek:

“I have always loved Whitney and have been a fan from the beginning. I have all her records, and luckily, I have also been fortunate [to call her a friend],” says Fox.
Fox, who plans on using an upcoming authorized biography to tell the story, points out, “Whitney’s story reminds me of A Star Is Born. She’s suffered a few hits lately, but that’s what makes her a true star: you have to fall down and rise again. Her life story is simply incredible. I’d love for her to release a comeback and [soundtrack] record in relation to the movie.”


Drug use, anorexia scares, lesbian rumors, and of course Bobby Brown :rolleyes:
all wrapped up in to one delicious TV movie will make this must-see TV indeed.

Re: Vivvy starring in Whitless biopic?
 

Steeltrap I am with you on this!! What the heazy???? Don't we have something better to do with our time?

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Re: Vivvy starring in Whitless biopic?
 

STOP!!!

Re: Will and Jada perform at Ozzfest
 

That's that grunge rock thing. Like I said b4 - not my style, but to each his own. She's 'bout like Halle - she can wear anything and she'll still be cute.

Now on another note .... not Will looking like this!:eek: :( :o

Please I don't care where she was performing, she still looks dirty

Re: Re: Will and Jada perform at Ozzfest
 

Girl you got me cracking up, because neither one is looking any kind of nice to me right about now from these pics. I know this is the look for what she was doing...but nope I'm not feeling it at all.

Soror Meezdiscreet, MeezDiscreet, MeezDiscreet

I just read your signature and you have me falling out laughing, and I needed it to, cuz y'all know I work with a dingbat.

Did anyone hear that Eddie and Nicole have called the divorce off.

Re: Re: Re: Will and Jada perform at Ozzfest
 

:D ;)

She looks crackish.

Re: Re: Will and Jada perform at Ozzfest
 

I don't think you can look cute and dirty at the same time. That outfit is only acceptable for performing in the alley for a crowd of homeless people. But they would probably want to see something better than that.

I think Will's facial expression says it all...WTH?
