Clifford “T.I.” Harris is on his road to redemption… somewhere chillin’ in a minimum security facility studying his dictionary, but that doesn’t mean he can’t face a lawsuit out here in the real world.
The relatives of Joseph Williams, a deceased man whose body was filmed in Atlanta and shown on the T.I.’s MTV reality show, have filed a lawsuit against Tip, complaining that the airing of the corpse on television was disrespectful and done without their consent.
This can’t be good. Details below: Continue Reading…
NeNe Leakes has apparently scared the sh*t out of another one of her Celebrity Apprentice cast mates.? Supermodel Nikki Taylor first made the statement that NeNe’s loud mouth frightened her on the set… and now Star Jones has hired security to protect her from NeNe.
As the battle between NeNe and Star continues, it’s become quite apparent that the two don’t particularly care for one another. Rumor has it that Star actually feels physically threatened by the reality show diva, and fears for her personal safety so she hired a bodyguard.
Better safe than sorry I guess… *shrug*

The slender singer, who has previously refused to confirm exactly how many pounds she’s lost, admitted to losing at least 80lbs! She even revealed one of her work-out secrets… basketball!
J-Hud also broke her silence regarding the 2008 murders of her mother, brother, and nephew. In the emotional segment, Jennifer touched on how she got back on her feet in the wake of her family tragedy.
?I try to do everything to say, ?OK, will my mother like this? Will she be pleased? Will she be proud of that? How do I know she?s happy and she?s smiling down at me from heaven??? said the tearful songstress. ?And that?s what I try to go by and walk by.?
The 29-year-old Grammy winner detailed how she could hear the voice of her mother and brother telling her to ?knock it off? and snap out of her funk. Jennifer managed to get through the interview, although she did shed a few tears and admits it’s still a difficult time for her.
?It?s such a shocking thing,? she said. ?It?s a lot to take in. It?s like, ?OK, is this real? Did this really happen?? It?s hard to put it in sync with reality.?

First Lady Michelle Obama may a fashion icon but she rocks bargain apparel just like you and I!
Mrs. Obama appeared on the “Today” show where she discussed a number of issues, including President Obama’s job performance, how he kicked the smoking habit and whether her husband dyes his grey hair. She also spoke about not letting her daughters on the social network site Facebook.

Besides all that trivial stuff… the big news on the fashion front is Mrs. Obama’s choice of dress. 
The first lady wore a breezy, feminine, polka-dot piece, which can be purchased straight off-the-rack from H&M for only $39.95.
The navy dress is part of H&M’s current collection, however it’s a bit different in stores.
Mrs. Obama’s stylist customized her look by adding three-quarter-length sleeves and pairing the dress with a leather belt (in lieu of its original red sash) and bright yellow heels.
It’s not the first time Obama has rocked H&M and I suspect it won’t be the last. She’s also know to frequent The Gap and J. Crew.
Don’t you just love her?
