Tyler Perry Is Pissed Off

noreply@blogger.com (LaKeshia) — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 06:43:19 PDT

Tyler Perry was on "60 Minutes" last night and he discussed everything from his horrific childhood in New Orleans to how he owns his empire and how he gets his characters to talk about God, love, relationships, and other things. Of course he speaks on Spike Lee's comments about his characters being "coonery" and "bufoonery."

“I would love to read that [criticism] to my fan base. All these characters of mine are bait, bait to get people talking about God, love, family, and faith. That pisses me off. It is so insulting.” - Tyler Perry

I think it is just pure hate on Spike's part. I mean here is a guy who turns nothing into something on his own and you have others who can't share in your blessings. On the contrary, Spike is entitled to his opinion. What are your kreative thoughts?

LaToya Jackson Fears For Her Life

noreply@blogger.com (LaKeshia) — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 13:02:41 PDT

LaToya Jackson is fearing for her life - claiming someone is out to kill her. She claims she knows an ish load of information pertaining to her brother, Michael Jackson's death.

According to sources, LaToya says she has been targeted for death by the same people who killed Michael because he is worth more dead than alive.

I am not sure if I believe her, because I feel it was just Michael's time to die, but you can read more about LaToya's allegations below:

“La Toya is convinced someone paid Michael’s personal physician, Conrad Murray, to kill him because they stood to gain up to $1 billion from his death,” a source said. La Toya feels that she may be next without any problems. “La Toya has been telling pals she can name the mysterious people Michael’s doctor was working with when Michael died. She is convinced they killed her brother and wouldn’t hesitate for a moment to kill her as well. She says too many people have got too much to lose if the truth gets out. She fears for her life. And it’s not just herself she’s worried about - but the whole family. She says her information is explosive and that Dr Murray did not act alone in Michael’s death, said the insider. She’s extra cautious now of the people she talks to and the places she goes. The singer is also taking all precautions. She only goes to crowded restaurants and refuses to go the supermarket when it’s dark outside. Back in September during an interview with Barbara Walters, she first told of her fear of Michael being murdered. When I found out he had actually passed, I said, ‘No. I wasn’t an accident. Michael was murdered, she said. I don’t think we’ll find a person as talented, a person who thought the way he thought… a person with the heart that Michael had, she added. People aren’t that way anymore. He was special. He wasn’t God, but he was certainly god-like. He was the closest thing to a god that I knew. (via The Gossip Girls)

I don't know about this one...what about you guys?

Soulja Boy Arrested

noreply@blogger.com (LaKeshia) — Fri, 09 Oct 2009 10:23:19 PDT

Is it me or does every celebrity thinks it is cool to be arrested? Does that give them some kind of street cred or some? I mean come on...Soulja Boy was arrested in Henry County, GA last night after running from the police.

The rapper was in McDonough shooting a video at a house, while police were responding to a call about a group of people hanging out. Soulja Boy ran when police walked up to the house and eventually returned.

Soulja Boy is performing this weekend at Morehouse College.

My Question: Why run, if you aren't guilty of anything?...Soulja Boy, holla at us and give us the scoop!

"The Game" Is Back

noreply@blogger.com (LaKeshia) — Fri, 09 Oct 2009 10:13:09 PDT

I know you guys are happy to hear that BET has officially picked up new episodes of the CW's sitcom, "The Game."

Actress/Songwriter, Drew Sidora dished out the news to S2S earlier this week, “The show is getting picked up, so for people that have been petitioning and wondering, it is coming back to BET. So, hopefully, you will see me back.”

The production of the new shows has not started filming yet and there is speculation that taping may be done in Atlanta.

Whether or not taping comes to Atlanta or not, I am happy the gang will be hitting the tubes, soon!

Michael Vick's Documentary + His Fiance Speaks Out

noreply@blogger.com (LaKeshia) — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 07:29:42 PDT

He's out of prison, back in the NFL, and now Michael Vick is going to star in his own television series.

The quarterback is partnering with BET for a new eight-part TV series scheduled to air early next year. The program, tentatively titled "The Michael Vick Project," spotlights his comeback with the Philadelphia Eagles while also examining his tumultuous past -- including his troubled childhood and his 2007 arrest for running a dogfighting ring.

Vick is aware that the series may do little to alter the negative perception some hold against him.

"I just want people to really get to know me as an individual," Vick said last week in an interview from his home in Philadelphia. "What I want to do is change the perception of me. I am a human being. I've made some mistakes in the past, and I wish it had never happened. But it's not about how you fall, but about how you pick yourself up. All I can ask is that people are receptive and come to this with an open mind," Vick said. "I can't change the past; I can only change the present. I know there are people who can't forget what I did, but I hope they can someday forgive me." - Michael Vick

Kijafa Frink, who is engaged to Michael Vick and the mother of his two daughters, is speaking out and says she was not going to leave her man when Vick headed to prison.

“I love Michael with all my heart, and I felt like you just don’t stay with a person just for the good times, you have to toughen out the bad times and in between. What kind of a woman would I be to leave ’cause the money went? I wanted to stand by him and hopefully he stands by me with whatever I face in my life going forward...It seems like we’re getting out of the storm right now.” - Kijafa Frink

It sounds like the two of them are happy and are standing by each other. They are planning their wedding for next year and are pondering which city to marry in.

After spending the last few months adjusting to being a mom, Jennifer Hudson has finally shown us a photo of Baby David...adorable.

J. Hud told the press that she loves being a mom and her lil' man eats so much. The baby is named after Jennifer's fiance, David Otunga.

“He has a lot of personality, like David. He’s always been a good sleeper. His favorite time to smile now is diaper changes. Or when he spits up on you – he just cracks up like he thinks it’s the funniest thing. And his bottle is his pacifier. With a pacifier, it’s like he knows, ‘Ain’t nothing come out of here. No, I don’t want that. Where’s the real deal?’ His best friend is that bottle; that’s all he wants.” - J. Hud

Although Kanye said he was going to take some time off after his fiasco at last week's VMAs, he and Amber Rose were spotted out in Hollywood last night.

Still the hottest topic of conversation, Kanye was referred to quite frequently during this past Sunday’s Emmy Awards.

Right off the bat host Neil Patrick Harris declared, “All right, it’s my job to keep things moving tonight. I’m here to ensure everything runs smoothly. Here’s hoping Kanye West likes ‘30 Rock.’” And many other celebrities spoke of “pulling a Kanye” if they didn’t win.

Kim of RHOA Faces Lawsuit For Hit Song

noreply@blogger.com (LaKeshia) — Wed, 23 Sep 2009 07:57:14 PDT

According to sources, Kim from the Housewives of ATL is facing a lawsuit for the song "Tardy for the Party," after she failed to pay producer Don Vito.

The song was pulled from iTunes on Monday afternoon and sources say her website was shutdown. Songwriter and co-star Khandi had turned the country song into a hip dance track, so those who were able to download the song before it was pulled were lucky.

In other Kim Zolciack news, it is being reported that Kim is without a manager/publicist, Jonathan Jaxson. Jaxson aired his grievance with Kim on the Atlanta radio station B98.5, claiming that Kim is "a habitual liar."

With sister Khloe announcing a wedding date planned for this Sunday, Kourtney Kardashian wants to have a wedding, too.

The E! reality star has reportedly been pushing babydaddy Scott Disick to propose and wed before their child comes in December.

One source says, “Kourtney not only wants a wedding, she’s demanding it. Scott is hemming and hawing, trying to buy himself more time. He’s suggesting they wait until after the baby arrives to discuss wedding plans, but Kourtney wants to lock Scott down. She’s informed him that she’d be happiest with a no-frills wedding over Thanksgiving, and that her mom and sisters would handle all the planning.” The insider adds that Kourtney really wants a solid family, saying that the brunette beauty is “insisting on a guarantee that she and Scott will bring this child into the world as a committed family unit.” (Source)

What is it with these Kardashian sisters? Do they not realize that marriage is sacred. Does anyone value the meaning of marriage. Kourtney, he is your on again, off again baby daddy. That's it...you guys were screwing around and now you are pregnant. Period!

RHOA Drama: Kim versus NeNe

noreply@blogger.com (LaKeshia) — Mon, 21 Sep 2009 07:38:26 PDT

There is never a dull moment among Bravo's Real Houswives of Atlanta. Kim Zolciak told MTV on Thursday night that Ne Ne claims she penned "Tardy for the Party."

Flabergasted, she explained that her younger daughter was the one to write that song with her music teacher. “I’m a little bit disturbed that Nene just claimed it was her song,” she said on the red carpet for VH1 Divas.

Of course Kim was in high spirits, because"Tardy for the Party" is ranked in the Top 10 Dance songs on iTunes.

But you know Ne Ne didn't let Kim's accusations slide. “I don’t know why there’s always, like, lies,” exclaimed Ne Ne. She said she never claimed credit for the lyrics, she did say she was the first one to figure out that the song was hot.

(Yawn) Kim should be happy that "Tardy for the Party" has jump started her music career...if she has one?!? Next!

I'm On Vacation!

noreply@blogger.com (LaKeshia) — Wed, 15 Apr 2009 16:58:58 PDT

I'm not literally on vacation, but I'm taking a lil vacation (yes again) from blogging. About a week ago, I thought I was coming back due to a really cool Old School Friday theme, but after that post and a few others, I really wasn't feeling blogging.

I cherish and love all of the cyber friends and readers I have acquired during the time I've been blogging, but I need to get my spunk back and I'm sure it'll be back very soon.

Until then, I know you will get your entertainment news fix on other hot sites.
