Kelis was spotted out yesterday with her son Knight and she was all smiles, but if I was getting $55,000 a month I would be cheesin’ too. I wonder what the baby looks like, I am sure he’s a cutie.

So Far No Team Wants Vick
If any NFL teams are interested in Michael Vick(notes), they’re not saying.
A day after the quarterback was conditionally reinstated to the league, only the Baltimore Ravens would directly acknowledge evaluating him.
“We’ve had long discussions about Michael Vick and we have a feeling about how he would impact our team and not impact our team,” coach John Harbaugh said Tuesday.
General manager Ozzie Newsome declined comment. Previously, he has said the Ravens have enough quarterbacks.
Other teams either refused comment or insisted they wouldn’t pick up the former Atlanta Falcons star, who served 18 months in federal prison for running a dogfighting ring and was released from home confinement on July 20.
Commissioner Roger Goodell said Monday that Vick can immediately take part in preseason practices, workouts and meetings and can play in the final two preseason games—if he can find a team.
Once the season begins, Vick may participate in all team activities except games, and Goodell said he would consider Vick for full reinstatement by Week 6 (Oct. 18-19) at the latest.
Two clubs that might have seemed like a logical destination—the Miami Dolphins and Cincinnati Bengals—said they wouldn’t pursue Vick.

Horse Molester At It Again
COLUMBIA, S.C. -- A South Carolina man was charged with having sex with a horse after the animal's owner caught the act on videotape, then staked out the stable and caught him at shotgun point, authorities said Wednesday.
But this wasn't the first time Rodell Vereen has been charged with buggery. He pleaded guilty last year to having sex with the same horse after owner Barbara Kenley found him in the same stable and was sentenced to probation and placed on the state's sex offender list.
Kenley said she noticed several weeks ago her 21-year-old horse Sugar was acting strange and getting infections again. She noticed things in the barn had been moved around - dirt piled up and bales of hay stacked near the horse's stall at her Lazy B Stables in Longs, about 20 miles northeast of Myrtle Beach.
Glenn Beck Says Obama Is Doesn't Like White People
NEW YORK (AP) — Fox News Channel commentator Glenn Beck said he believes President Obama is a racist. Beck made the statement during a guest appearance Tuesday on the Fox & Friends morning show. He said Obama has exposed himself as a person with "a deep-seated hatred for white people or the white culture."
His remarks came during a discussion of Obama's reaction to the arrest of Harvard University scholar Henry Louis Gates Jr. Gates is black and was arrested for disorderly conduct by a white policeman over a misunderstanding about a break-in at Gates' home.
An Obama spokesman, William Burton, said the White House had no comment on Beck.
Beck's statement was challenged on the air by Fox host Brian Kilmeade, who noted that most of the people who work for the nation's first black president are white.
Is American Idol Rigged???
According to season eight finalist Ju’Not American Idol is definitely fixed. Today while on a live chat with fans Ju’Not stated, “It's a fixed thing if I ever saw one.” I wouldn’t be shocked if the show is actually fixed, but I wonder if Ju’Not is just a sore loser who is trying to keep his name in the public eye. One thing is clear I see some lawsuits headed Ju’Not’s way.

Katherine Jackson’s Request for Michael’s Estate Info Gets Rejected
The legal team for Michael Jackson's mother on Tuesday asked a judge for the power to press the administrators of her son's estate for more information ahead of a key hearing next week, but the judge rebuffed the effort.
Lawyers for Katherine Jackson on Tuesday requested the authority to interview attorney John Branca and former music executive John McClain this Friday, as well as demand they produce business contracts and other documents related to the late pop star.
Her lawyers argued in a court filing that the information was "potentially crucial" to a hearing set for Monday that could determine the permanent representatives of Jackson's estate, which is estimated to be worth more than $500 million.
Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Mitchell Beckloff put off dealing with their request until Monday, effectively quashing it.

Black News: Jackson’s Doctor Gave Him a Strong Drug
Michael Jackson's personal physician, Dr. Conrad Murray, administered a powerful drug that authorities believe killed the singer, a source with knowledge of the investigation confirmed to CNN on Monday.
Dr. Conrad Murray was with Michael Jackson on the day that he died.
![]()
Murray, a Texas-based cardiologist, allegedly gave Jackson the anesthetic propofol -- commonly known by the brand name Diprivan -- in the 24 hours before he died, the source said.
The doctor's attorneys in a statement Monday said they wouldn't comment on "rumors, innuendo or unnamed sources." In the past, they have said Murray never prescribed or administered anything that could have killed the pop star.
Murray was the doctor who was at Jackson's home when the pop star died on June 25.
Last week, Texas authorities searched Murray's Houston medical office and storage unit, looking for "evidence of the offense of manslaughter," according to court documents.
Among the items removed from Murray's office were a computer; 27 tablets of phentermine, a prescription-strength appetite suppressant; 1 tablet of clonazepam, an anti-anxiety medication; and some Rolodex cards.

It’s A Wrap: Kim K. & Reggie Bush Break Up
I must say I am a little shocked to hear this news I actually thought that maybe they would have made it down the aisle, but I guess I was wrong. According to Kim’s publicist the cause of the split was their conflicting schedules, but there are rumors circulating that the split was due to Reggie cheating. HMM…I wonder which it was, probably a little of both.
Octomom Inks A Reality Show
Just when I thought I was done hearing about all the foolishness that involved Nadya Suleman aka “Octomom” I find out that she is getting a reality TV show deal for $250,000. Nadya signed a deal with a European TV Company to star in a reality show with her 14 children for three years. According to the contract she will receive $125,00 for 36 days of shooting for the first year, $75,000 for 21 days in the second year, and $50,000 for 14 days of shooting in the third year. As required by California law 15% of the money will be put into a trust fund for the children, so at least the kids will benefit.

Beyonce in Talk to Stay in Las Vegas
Beyonce and her mama Mrs. Knowles are in talk with Wynn Hotel in Las Vegas to schedule Beyonce to do a year round tour there for 3 years, similar to those of Celine Dion and Toni Braxton. As of now nothing is set in stone and personally I don’t see this happening anytime in the near future because Beyonce’s career is to big to be scheduled in just one city.

Tyler Perry's "I Can Do Bad All By Myself" Movie Trailer

The movie synopsis, by Cinematical, is:
Three delinquent children loot the home of the lovable-but-firm Madea (Perry), and she takes matters into her own hands. She delivers them into the care of their only relative, the hard-drinking, nightclub-singing April, played by Academy Award-nominated Taraji P. Henson. Aunt April sponges off her married boyfriend and wants nothing to do with the kids, but things start to change when a good-looking Mexican immigrant (Adam Rodriguez) moves into her basement.
Chris! I want more Ass-whoopins!
It has been reported the Chris Brown and Rihanna checked into the same hotel in separate rooms and were seen taking decoy vehicles around New York. Also, they are allegedly recording a duet together soon.
So, either these people are engaged in wishful thinking, or Rihanna likes the fact that Chris has a little Ike Turner in him. Hope she does like J-Lo and takes boxing lessons! LOL
Investigations Being Done in Jackson Case Leaks
Investigators are looking into whether employees at the Los Angeles County coroner's office illegally leaked information about Michael Jackson's death probe to the news media, according to a sheriff's spokesman.
Police stand outside the Los Angeles County Coroner's Office when Michael Jackson's body was there in June.
![]()
Vivid descriptions of Jackson's corpse, which was in the coroner's custody for an autopsy, were published by tabloid newspapers in the days after his death.
The Los Angeles County Supervisors office on Friday asked the sheriff to conduct a "preliminary inquiry," which will determine whether there is enough evidence to launch a full investigation, said Steve Whitmore, a sheriff's spokesman.
Whitmore did not provide details on what prompted the request.
The Los Angeles Times quoted Los Angeles County Supervisor Mark Ridley-Thomas as saying his office called the sheriff's department after reports that coroner's employees not involved in the Jackson death probe had viewed his death certificate in the office database.

Black News: E. Lynn Harris Dies at 54
John Bazemore/Associated PressThe author E. Lynn Harris.
Updated | 2:48 p.m. E. Lynn Harris, the best-selling author of novels that addressed questions of identity and sexuality among black men, has died, his publicist told The Associated Press. He was 54.
According to his official biography at his Web site, Mr. Harris was born in Flint, Mich. and raised in Little Rock, Ark. At the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, he was the school’s first black male Razorbacks cheerleader and was a lifelong fan of the team. He sold computers for a living until he self-published his first novel, “Invisible Life,” in 1991; it was picked up by Anchor Books in 1994, spawning a prolific writing career spanning ten more novels, from “Just As I Am” in 1994, to “Basketball Jones,” published in January, as well as a 2004 memoir, “What Becomes of the Brokenhearted.”
In a review of Mr. Harris’s 2006 novel “I Say a Little Prayer” in The New York Times Book Review, Troy Patterson wrote that Mr. Harris “has helped bring taboo topics — like closeted black men indulging their sexuality ‘on the down low’ — into mainstream conversation.” From his debut with “Invisible Life”, Mr. Patterson wrote that Mr. Harris offered a writing style that “was smoothly paced, and the prose occasionally opened up on Fitzgerald-lite moments of sparkling sentiment.”

E. Lynn Harris Dies
According to Today, author, E. Lynn Harris, has passed away. This was confirmed by his publisher, Doubleday. He was on a book tour on the West Coast when he passed. Harris was 54 years old.Is Beyonce a Fraud???
According to the New York Post Beyonce has been lying about some of the tracks she has written, and that she actually paid others to say she wrote them. Read what the Post is reporting below.
Ms. Jay-Z has been called out by two different R&B ladies for not writing songs she claims are hers. According to Rap-Up magazine, Chrisette Michele revealed that Beyonce's hit single "Ego" was originally meant for her own album "Epiphany" but she decided to hand it over to the Queen B. And here is the shady part: The track is credited to producer Elvis Williams, Beyonce Knowles and Harold Lilly ... not vocal Goddess Chrisette. (Update: Beyonce was not mentioned by Christette as a writer on "Ego" when offered the song, which she turned down but did not write).
Michele says, "It was really scary for me to release my pen because I had written my first album myself. You don't know if they're going to be able to capture your voice the same way that you captured it yourself."
Something about these rumors seem a little sketchy because it is pretty obvious that someone is a Beyonce hater.

Kelis Racks Up in Child Support
Now last week I told you all about Nas not paying the $5,000 a month in child support to Kelis and that she was complaining that he only gave her a gift certificate for a few thousand dollars. Well now the baby is here and the entire situation has changed. Kelis has been awarded $55,000 a month in child support from Nas and in addition to this he must pay for the baby’s nurse, prenatal expenses, medical insurance and $35,000 to Kelis’ lawyer. DAMN who would of ever thought that Nas had bank like that??? I see him filing for bankruptcy some time in the near future.
Reasons Why Nas and Kelis’ Baby Will Need Therapy
First off let me correct the fact that I said Kelis had her baby two days ago, apparently she was in labor for 3 days and did not give birth to her son Knight until last night. 10) Your stepsister had her baby seat skeeted on by Jay-Z and he made a song about it.
9) Your parents had sex with blindfolds and made a song about it.
8 ) Your friends will have both of these songs on their iPods and torture you with them.
7) Your uncle’s name is Jungle He will swear to you he is a rapper. Don’t believe him.
6) Your dad can’t drive but owns many cars. You will be his chauffeur one day.
5) Your birth will be on Twitter.

Your Black News: Beyonce Named the Queen of Pop
There are no formal anointments with these kinds of things, but it's hard not to crown Beyoncé as the current queen of pop music.
She's the female artist who has spent the most weeks at No. 1 this century with five No. 1 singles, she is the woman with the most Top 5 hits since 2000, and she has the most hits in the Top 10 with a dozen.
Her latest, and third, solo album "I Am … Sasha Fierce" — named after her onstage alter ego (who sounds like a Tyra Banks character) — is one of the best-selling albums of the year. With more than 2 million in sales, the album is still in the Top 30 after 34 weeks; its latest million-selling single, "Halo," is still in the Top 15 after 25 weeks. Its newest release "Ego" is No. 2 on the R&B charts.
Whitney Houston’s Album Release Party
Whitney Houston had her album release party last night for her latest album “Look to You”. This album is being considered her comeback album and features songs that were produced by R. Kelly, Alicia Keys, and Swizz Beatz. Speaking of Alicia and Swizz Beatz, it is being said that they are no longer hiding their relationship considering they were basically booed up the entire night. Anyways, good luck to Whitney with this album and I can’t wait to hear it.
Jay Z Confronts the Rumors
During a radio show in London last night Jay Z finally responded to the rumors that he stopped Chris Brown from coming to the BET Awards and also his recent beef with The Game.
On Chris Brown’s apology
“We Are all flawed human beings. All a person can do is apologize. Everyone should be allowed to make mistakes. It happens”
On Blocking Chris Brown from Performing at the BET Awards
That’s the silliest rumor I’ve ever heard. First let me categorically deny that, that’s not even my style. If I have a problem with Chris brown, I have a problem with Chris Brown. I haven’t said anything live or behind the scenes. I don’t agree with what he did and that’s it. But as far as not letting him perform on BET, that’s ridiculous, that’s stupid and that’s a sucker move. I wouldn’t do it. And people commenting on rumors, that’s a sucker move.
On Mentioning The Game in a Diss Track
“Tell me exactly what I said….(Tim: you mentioned his name, Jim Jones’ name, Dame Dash’s name…) I said I’m not talking about, this, this. I’m not…Is that a diss? If I said I’m not talking about you? “Oh, you hurt my feelings”.? Tell groupie to get over it! If that’s a diss, then wear that. Tell groupie to get over it.”
I see a response from The Game in 3, 2, 1.

Kelis Gives Birth to a Baby Boy!!!
First off let me say CONGRATS to Kelis on giving birth to her first child today, but I just can not help but wonder why Nas was not there. Some sources are saying that Kelis did not want Nas to view the birth while other sources are saying that he just did not show up, but one thing is clear and that is that HE WAS NOT THERE. I wonder what his excuse will be???
Antoine Walker Appears in Court Over Debt
Former NBA all-star Antoine Walker appeared briefly in a Las Vegas court to face criminal charges in a case involving an $822,500 casino gambling debt.
The 6-foot-9 Walker said nothing inside or outside the courtroom as he appeared Monday with his lawyer, Jonathan Powell, on three felony counts of writing bad checks. Powell also declined comment.
Each charge carries a possible one- to four-year prison term.
Walker remains free on $135,000 cash bail posted Thursday following his arrest at a Lake Tahoe hotel. Walker was in northern Nevada to play in a weekend celebrity golf tournament.
Walker wasn't asked to enter a plea before a Las Vegas justice of the peace set a Sept. 16 date for an evidentiary hearing.

Joe Jackson Says He Never Abused Michael
LOS ANGELES, California (CNN) -- Michael Jackson's father told CNN's Larry King Monday night that he never beat his son or made any mistakes in raising him. Joe Jackson told CNN's Larry King he suspected foul play was involved in his son's death last month.
![]()
Joe Jackson also said the rumor that he wanted to take the singer's children on tour as the Jackson 3 was "a bunch of jive."
Jackson repeated his suspicion that foul play was involved in his son's death last month, but he conceded he did not know what happened. He said he had been blocked from seeing or talking to his son in the days before his death.
There were indications in the interview with Jackson, who was in Las Vegas, that he was not being included in all of the family's activities in recent weeks.
When King asked about the findings of the private autopsy -- which daughter LaToya Jackson last week said she's seen -- Joe Jackson answered "Well, they have not showed it to me, Larry. I'll put it like that."
He also said he did not know where his son's body has been kept since the memorial service.
"You'd have to ask somebody that knows," he said. "I don't know."
Jackson denied that he was legally separated from Katherine Jackson -- his wife of 60 years -- although he did say he spends most of his time in Las Vegas. His wife lives in the family home in Encino, California.
He denied a report that he had agreed to sign a document saying he would not be involved in helping raise Michael Jackson's three children as a way to help his wife retain custody of them.
"I've never said I was going to sign any papers to that effect," he said.

Cost of 50 Cent’s House Drops Drastically
The price of 50 Cents Connecticut mansion has been reduced to $10.9 million which is a big difference from the original $18.5 million asking price. The house has been on the market for almost two years and since then has been reduced twice, and from the looks of things this won’t be the last time. Besides who wants to live in Connecticut anyways???

Suspect Arrested in McNair Murder Case
Adrian J. Gilliam Jr was arrested Friday by ATF agents in Nashville, Tennessee. Gilliam is supposedly the man who sold McNair’s mistress Sahel Kazemi the gun that she used to kill herself and McNair. Gilliam has been charged with illegal possession of a firearm and will probably be serving time considering this is not his first time being in trouble with the law, he was convicted of murder and attempted armed robbery in 1993. I will keep you updated on this case as more details unravel.

Wonder what he meant by he will be back, exactly where is he going??? I hope just backstage.

Your Black News: Latoya Jackson Says Michael Was Murdered
Speaking out for the first time since Michael Jackson's sudden death on June 25, the singer's sister LaToya Jackson, 53, is raising alarming allegations.
"Michael was murdered," LaToya claims in an exclusive interview with London newspaper the News of the World.
“We don't think just one person was involved in the murder," she added, refusing to name the people she believes are responsible for the death during her four-hour interview in L.A. “It was a conspiracy to get Michael's money."
According to LaToya, Jackson himself always feared for his life. "A couple of years ago Michael told me he was worried that people were out to get him,” she told the paper. "He said, 'They're gonna kill me for my publishing. They want my catalogues and they're gonna kill me for these.' "
The Game Says that Jay-Z and Beyonce are Shooting Blanks
Damn. The beef between Jay Z and The Game is coming to a head, as The Game had the audacity to say that Jigga can’t jiggle out no semen that actually works. Remember when Jay Z said that Chris Brown is a “dead man walking”? Maybe he shoulda been talking about his own sperm.
Did Cosby Leave a Woman Hanging Out to Dry?
Recently, I listened to yet another radio debate about the manner in which Bill Cosby talked about the plight of some black people at least 5 years ago. Economically speaking, I too would be considered one of the working poor in the African American community mentioned, however, some of the words used to describe the behavior associated with this class of people did not fit me or others that I personally know. In fact, I am a highly, educated single mother with a master’s degree in social work. I also hold a bachelor’s of broadcast journalism from the University of Missouri School of Journalism in Columbia, arguably one of the finest J-Schools in the nation. I’ve been employed, unemployed, underemployed, upset, bewildered, disappointed, depressed and even disgusted.
Interestingly, none of the books I’ve read about “lower economic people” who are believed to be “failing the civil rights movement by not holding up their end of this deal,” invited me or others to the table to discuss individual situations or the people I encounter as a social worker who are simply trying to make this thing called life work the best way he or she knows how. Just because a school is open does not mean what is being taught is adequate. Just because there is a hosptial near by doesn’t mean I am welcome there or can afford to be seen there. In fact, recently I learned that I need a major operation but I don’t have insurance to cover the projected $20,000 cost. Did I mention, I work full-time?
