That man definately has some sugar in his tank.

CT4 and Skee, I would have thought Jodeci too but they were not an option. I'm going with Silk. It maybe Next, because they are the only two groups that are on this list that are not one hit wonders.

John Singleton, Seal, Chris Webber, Tyler Perry...*singing* One of these things are not like the other, one of these things doesn't belong... I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks Tyler's gay.

On Charlie Sheen: I think Denise is using the allegations and his past (drugs and hookers) to cover herself up. I was also thinking today that Charlie may need to check the paternity of his youngest daughter. She filed for divorce while she was pregnant. I think she's going to come out as being the bad guy on this one.

Hell, I always got the BGA vibe from Tyler Perry.

So have I.

I saw a DVD of Angie Stone and A. Hamilton's tour from '05. Tyler was in the audience. A guy was next to him. The guy's face was blurred. I thought that was odd.

You might have a point there ... in Liz Smith's column for today, I couldn't help but notice this quote:

"I spoke to a well-connected source in Tinseltown, whose ear is ever close to the ground, calibrating every celeb tremor. This person said, 'The feeling here right now is that Denise has overreached by going public with this stuff. Nobody thinks Charlie is a choirboy, but it takes two to make a marriage and two to break a marriage. He's been a gentleman so far. And by the way, he didn't exactly snatch her from a nunnery.'"

WHOA!

Thanks! I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought that!

I think Charlie and Nick Lashay(sp) need to start a support group for celebrity husbands who suddenly got kicked to the curb.

Patty Jackson's 411 for the week of April 24th, 2006

Whitney Houston is back in rehab. The troubled singer has been making headlines due to her addiction. Over the past few weeks, we have seen the pictures and heard the stories about her drug addiction, and how it was destroying her life. Whitney has checked into a facility in Arizona. Her family convinced her to go. Maybe this time, Whitney will get the help she needs. Now that Whitney is getting help, what is going to happen to her husband Bobby Brown? He needs money. He and Whitney are having major problems. They were separated at the time she entered rehab. Bobby left Whitney a few weeks ago. He was tired of fighting with her, and he felt she had disrespected his mother. Some people are speculating that Bobby convinced his sister, Tina, to dish the dirt on Whitney so they could get some money. The Houston family is furious at Bobby and his family, and they want them to stay away. Bobby needs money, and he may have to go on tour. His unpredictable behavior has already caused problems with a possible New Edition reunion. The guys are doing the majority of their summer tour without him.

WHAT’S THE UNDERGROUND BUZZ?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !

He’s got the awards, the bling and the fame, but he also has too many women and he drinks too much Cristal Champagne. His womanizing, drinking and partying is getting out of control. He is often photographed with the sisters, but he really prefers to date other races. He is the man right now, and he can have any woman that he wants, but his career could suffer in the long run.

I just heard today that Whitney might have escaped from rehab. Bobby also needs to get his act together as well.

Hoopz:

No K-Ci, YOU need to get over it. Don't be mad because MJB's still doing her thing and all you're doing is singing to the crack pipe.

Congrats to Boris and Nicole!

Russell sure like them models!

I thought Terry's next book would be the sequel for Stella!

Underground Buzz: JAMIE!!!!!!

[SKEEphistAKAte]

I think the underground is Jamie. And she is mistaken, SKEE is one woman who would NEVER date him.

Russell and Naima

Boris & Nicole: wow and congrats, I want to see the first baby now. I bet she is a cutie.

That Terry McMillan book for prospective undergrads sounds like a good gift for my niece. Does anyone know of any books especially for African American FEMALES entering undergrad?

Britney Spears, 24, couldn’t hide her pregnancy any longer when she showed up poolside at Caesar’s Palace in Las Vegas this weekend, sporting a red bikini and a serious bump. The singer is expecting her second child with husband Kevin Federline, 28, sources have confirmed to Us. The couple have been married since September 2004 and have a seven-month-old child, Sean. Federline has a daughter, Kori, 3, and a 21-month -old son, Caleb, from a previous relationship. Spears’ 1999 debut album sold more than 10 million copies.

To read more about Brit’s pregnancy (keeping it secret from her parents, ordering fake cocktails to fool the public, and Kevin’s relentless partying), read this week’s Us Weekly on newsstands Wednesday!

I've believed for about a month now that she's pregnant again. She needs to stop popping babies and needs to try to get back into the studio to support that scrub of a husband.

But even though he's a scurb, he must have some super stuff!

[Confucius]

I wanted to ask if any one else saw Musiq's performance at Michael Jordan's all star weekend???

OMG He stopped right in the middle of the National Anthem. He forgot the words. I felt so bad for him...people started booing!!!
