4-1-1 ENTERTAINMENT FOR THE WEEK OF SEPTEMBER 22, 2003
What's up with comedian Tommy Davidson? Is it time for him to check back into rehab? Tommy was in Philly over the weekend headlining "The Can't Stop Laughin' Comedy Jam." When Tommy hit the stage he was acting strange. He wouldn't tell any jokes but he wanted to sing and talk. At times he would nod off and lean. This embarrassment went on for a half an hour. Tommy's manager had to get him off the stage. In true Philly fashion, the crowd started booing and started throwing water bottles. Tommy what's going on? Tommy did a stint in rehab a couple of years ago. Was he drunk? Was he high? Something is going on with him? He needs help.
Vivica A. Fox opens up about her new life in the new issue of US magazine. Vivica says she lost 30 pounds by taking up taebo and cutting out sugar and carbs in her diet. Vivica has a new movie Kill Bill coming out on October 10th, with Uma Thurman. Vivica also talks about her hot romance with rapper 50 Cent. Vivica says they have a blossoming friendship. Vivicia is 39 and she says young guys just like her. She is doing fine since she divorced her husband singer 6'9. Vivica says she's enjoys dating and she's not hunting for anyone because when you hunt you find trash. The one thing Vivicia wouldn't talk about it is her plastic surgery. When you see the picture of her in the magazine you will notice a change in her face. Whatever she had done it changed her look. Meanwhile Vivica's favorite date, 50 Cent is house hunting. 50 Cent is in negotiations to buy boxer Mike Tyson's Connecticut mansion. Mike's ex-wife Monica Turner currently owns the mansion. The mansion is going for a little less than $5 million and it has a boathouse, tennis courts and a caretaker's garage.
Tyler Perrry has another production coming to Philly. TYLER IS NOT IN IT! However, he did write it for singer Kelly Price. Kelly teams up with Chico Debarge in the stage musical "Why Did I Get Married?"
Playboy magazine recently rejected singer Blu Cantrell's nude photos. Sources say the photos were horrible. A couple of years ago Blu made headlines when it was discovered she had posed nude for Black Tail magazine. Blu says she's glad Playboy withdrew their offer because she doesn't want anything to take away from her real image as a singer. Maybe she should get a new hit song…that would help.
