Ludacris Pulls $100,000 for 45 Min. Christmas Party Performance…

Dec, 21 2010 | Written by ATLien

Christopher “Ludacris” was spotted in Chicago a few days ago (December 19) promoting his Conjure Cognac at Kenwood Liquors.

Word on the curb is that Luda will be have a VERY merry Christmas after recently securing a gig to perform at an exclusive Christmas party for some millionaire where he was paid nearly $100K to hit the stage… and he wasn’t even the only star there!

According to TMZ, a millionaire entrepreneur by the name of Jason Hope dropped the wad of cash on Luda to perform a 45-minute set for party-goers at Hope’s Arizona mansion.? Jersey Shore’s Snooki, Stephanie Pratt and a bunch of other celebs were also paid to party.

In all, Hope spent nearly $200,000 to get the famous faces to attend at his bash.

— Snooki got $17,500
— Lo and Stephanie got $12,500 each
— “Breaking Bad” star Aaron Paul got $16,000
— Kardashian stepfather Bruce Jenner got $15,000
— Giuliana and Bill Rancic got $15,000 total
— Dean Cain got $5,000.

According to Hope’s rep, the whole party totaled nearly $500,000. Who said money can’t buy friends?

Dayum Luda got $100,000 for 45 minutes? That’s a whole lotta Conjure! I wonder who the liquor sponsor was at that bash…

Should Mike Vick Be Allowed To Own Another Dog One Day?

Dec, 20 2010 | Written by ATLien

Philadelphia Eagles QB Michael Vick told NBC news that he wants to own another dog one day…and I don’t see any reason why he shouldn’t.

In an interview set to air this Wednesday (December 22nd), Vick states:

I would love to get another dog in the future. I think it would be a big step for me in the rehabilitation process.

I think just to have a pet in my household and to show people that I genuinely care, and my love and my passion for animals; I think it would be outstanding. If I ever have the opportunity again I will never take it for granted. I miss having a dog right now. I wish I could.

My daughters miss having one, and that’s the hardest thing: telling them that we can’t have one because of my actions.

Vick was banned for life for owning a dog as a result of his dog fighting scandal but it seems a bit unreasonable to me.? Vick is hot on the comeback trail and has proven his sincerity time and time again. He’s served his time, lost jobs & sponsorships and was bashed in the media. How much punishment is too much?

Surprisingly the women of The View agree with me. Barbara Walters said she would even trust Vick with her pooch….

Do you think it’s too soon? Should Mike ever be allowed to own a dog?

Nelly & Ashanti Reunite for Black & White Ball… [PHOTOS]

Dec, 20 2010 | Written by ATLien

Nelly & and his On again… off again… boo Ashanti were spotted at Nelly?s 5th Annual Black and White ball in St. Louis.

Nelly has often denied that he and Ashanti were ever even dating, but besides all that they still make somewhat of a cute couple. Now Nelly is finally opening up about whether he has plans to make an honest woman out of lady love Ashanti. When asked about their relationship, he replied:

It?s like society puts a pressure on you because they want to see a certain relationship. But if that relationship don?t work, then society doesn?t want to take the responsibility for when it don?t work.

I think you really have to be friends first. It?s not about how long it takes because there?s no time limit on this. I?m not a person that wants to get married more than once. I?m not a person that wants to be in a relationship more than once.

If I?ma do it, I?ma do it. You?re dying if you leave me.

Ummm… well Ashanti. That’s all on you boo.
