Yesterday I asked the question “Where is Andre 3000?” when no photos of Dre’ showed up from Beyonce’s video shoot for “Party” .

But then I remembered! *light bulb moment* Andre 300 wasn’t on Beyonce’s video set because…. Continue Reading…
A 17 year old South Atlanta teen got the shock of a lifetime yesterday after the Clayton County SWAT team kicked in his front door!
The teens father, spoke with Atlanta’s WSB news, explaining that it was his son’s Facebook page that prompted the visit.
Authorities say Jonathan Oliver posted photos on Facebook of himself waving a gun along with comments that he wanted to kill police.
Yep… seems about right 😕
But get this… when the SWAT team busted into their house, screaming and using tear gas… all they found was a few BB guns. *sigh*

Usher Raymond became somewhat of an anomaly earlier today (August 3, 2011) when he was spotted out in New York City pushing his two young sons in a stroller.
As you know, Black men aren’t supposed to be good fathers to their kids because they’re all locked up in jail, or currently dodging child support authorities (hence the point & stares from the woman in the photo).
But Usher totally debunked that myth by displaying all the fine qualities of a dutiful Dad. Usher strolled leisurely, enjoying the day with his two boys, Naviyd, 2, and Usher V (Cinco), 3… no nanny in sight.
I, personally, refuse to give Usher props for doing what he’s SUPPOSED to do, but I’m glad he’s being photographed doing it.
Why do Black fathers get such a bad rap anyways? I know quite a few who are stand up dudes…
More photos of Usher strolling with his adorable sons… Continue Reading…
Beyonce and her newly crowned BFF Kelly Rowland were spotted on the set of the video shoot for Beyonce?s song ?Party? featuring Andre 3000 and Kanye West.
[LISTEN: “PARTY” ~ Beyonce ft. Andre 3000 (Prod. Kanye West)]
The video for the hot song was shot in New Jersey yesterday (August 2, 2011) and the 29-year-old superstar rocked what appears to be bunny ears, while Rowland played her usual position as faithful sidekick.
Kelly’s normally on point but she’s reeeeeal “Drag Queen-ish” in this photo!
We all know King B would NEVER allow Kellz to upstage her on her own set, so I can almost understand.? But still…
[Sidebar: And where the f*ck was Dre? Is he STILL hiding from the cameras? *sigh*]
As you know, Beyonce and Kelly have been spending a lot more time together lately.
Beyonce (attempted to) upstage Kelly at her “Here I Am” album release party, where Bey had her own lil section and refused to take group photos with he former Destiny’s Child band bandmates… but it seems Kelly let bye gones be by gones. Kelly even supported Bey’s boo, Jay-Z recently at his “Watch the Throne” listening session (photos).
Po Michelle Williams… she seems to be the “odd man” out in the Destiny’s Child threesome turnt twosome.? Is there some tension between she and Bey we don’t know about?

Hot dogs may be a staple for single moms and sports fans, but doctors think they all should think twice before partaking in America’s favorite pastime snack!
Atlanta Braves fans got a rude awakening last year on their way to the last few games at Turner Field, when they spotted a warning posted on a giant billboard.
The signage, which read, “WARNING: Hot Dogs can STRIKE YOU OUT–FOR GOOD,” was posted just south of the stadium along I-75,? and hoped to warn patrons of health risks associated with their consumption of hot dogs.
Now the group is in the news again after erecting a similar billboard near the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, issuing the same stark warning to the legions of weiner lovers who show up for races.

Since my revelation, just about all of The Real Atlanta “Housewives” have been M.I.A. on social networking sites like Twitter (with the exception of Kim Zolciak, whose still in Atlanta).
Phaedra Parks, Cynthia Bailey, NeNe Leakes and Sheree Whitfield have all been pretty quiet since their departure July 28, 2011, but Kandi Burruss sent a few tweets on August 1st…
EUR Web caught up with Bravo’s Andy Cohen, Executive Vice President of Original Programming and Development, and inquired about what they had in store for the upcoming fourth season.
While Andy wouldn?t confirm the ladies whereabouts, he DID acknowledge an excursion, calling it ?the trip of a lifetime.?
Check out what Andy had to say in the audio below: Continue Reading…
