Flix: Amar’e Shirtless, Ciara Skirtless + Trouble in Paradise Already?

May, 10 2011 | Written by ATLien

NY Knicks player Amar’e Stoudemire, took a cue from his new boo Ciara and posed shirtless for Vogue.com.

Looks like the couple has more in common than we thought.? Amar’e is no slouch, but I wonder if some of CiCi rubbed off on him already.

As you know, CiCi’s 2nd career as a “supermodel” took off when she signed that lucrative modeling contract with Wilhelmina Agency a few years back. She’s even been named one of People Magazine’s “most beautiful” people for 2011.

And in related news, Ciara forgot her pants yesterday…

NeNe Leakes Wants You To Know… (Why She Quit Celebrity Apprentice)

May, 9 2011 | Written by ATLien

So apparently loud mouth NeNe Leakes is a quitter. Whoodathunkit? 😕

During last night’s Celebrity Apprentice (which I refuse to watch on the grounds that I can’t stand Donald Trump), Leakes reportedly walked out without nary a word to her teammates!

Leakes, 41, left her team which consisted of John Rich, Lil Jon and La Toya Jackson (who was brought back after being fired a few weeks ago) high and dry without an explanation.

Lil Jon and NeNe’s bff La Toya both tried to reach her by phone with no success. Later, Trump even dialed her up himself…

“I’ve never called anybody but I’m calling you because I think you have great ability,”

Trump, 64, told Leakes in a last-ditch effort to keep her around. “If you quit, it’s going to follow you for the rest of your life. For you to quit at the end is stupid.”

Well “stupid” is as “stupid” does…. because she definitely didn’t come back! Quitting way before she got a chance to hear Trump yell,”You’re Fired!”

NeNe’s surprising explanation of why she chose to walk out on her charity and her teammates below: Continue Reading…

May, 9 2011 | Written by ATLien

Hip Hop legends Sandy “Pepa” Denton and Cheryl “Salt” Wray of Salt N Pepa were spotted at various events in Kentucky over the weekend.

Salt looks nice and wholesome but for some reason, Pep’s dresses are always way too short and her lacefronts… way to wiggy.? She just tries to dayum hard… *sigh*

And this here fit-out…

Is Pepa going through something? Midlife crisis maybe? 😯

More photos of Salt n’ Pepa’s Derby fashion PLUS (in case you missed it) check out video of their Oprah appearance below: Continue Reading…

Newsflash! Whitney Houston Enters Rehab! + Her Recent Onstage Performance with Prince & Chaka Khan… [PHOTOS + VIDEO]

May, 9 2011 | Written by ATLien

Word on the curb is that Whitney Houston has checked herself in to an out-patient rehabilitation program.

Rumors began swirling that Whitney was back on crack a few days ago after she was spotted attending a Prince Concert in LA looking rockin’ her old crooked wig, but reports are she enrolled in the program about 10 days ago.

The program, which “they say” has nothing to do with drugs or alcohol (insert side-eye here) apparently allows Houston to go out in public as long as she has a monitor with her.

No one is saying exactly what she’s being treated for, but a source claims the singing diva is merely “cleansing herself to get ready for a new movie.”

Houston recently partied at the Prince concert in L.A. with her daughter right by her side….

VIDEO: Whitney & Daughter at Prince Concert

[Sidebar: After THESE PHOTOS surfaced of? Whitney & Bobby Brown’s daughter Bobbi Kristina sniffing snow,? Bobbi K said “No” to rehab but I’m praying that the lil heffa checked in right alongside her famous mom.]

So So in Debt? Jermaine Dupri Barely Avoids Foreclosure…

May, 9 2011 | Written by ATLien

Music mogul Jermaine Dupri seems to be living the life. Poppin bottles… jet setting all over the country to DJ here and there. He even made time to launch a new website.

JD’s been going hard with his new Global14 site and can be spotted on Twitter day and night asking just about everyone to join.

I wondered a while ago why JD was focusing all that energy towards the web as opposed to music. Now I finally get it!

He’s desperately seeking revenue…

Reportedly the head of So So Def is So So IN DEBT and just barely avoided foreclosure of his Atlanta mansion, which was originally scheduled to be sold on the courthouse steps last week.

JD also owes hundreds of thousands in state and property taxes and rumors are flying that So So Def is SO SO done.

Details below: Continue Reading…

May, 7 2011 | Written by ATLien

Cee Lo Green has remade his hit “F*ck You” song into a tribute song from volunteer firefighters.

Lo teamed up with Duracell for the special tribute, which was inspired by Green’s personal love & affinity for firefighters. His mom was a volunteer firefighter herself!

VIDEO: Cee Lo Green’s “Thank You” (Behind the Scenes)

When the singer was 16 years old his mother was pulled to safety from a near-fatal car accident by local volunteer firefighters, prompting her decision to lend a bit of her own time to the cause.

“As entertainers in the public light, we have a unique opportunity to raise awareness for causes close to our hearts through our greatest passion: music.

That’s why I am proud to join the Power Those Who Protect Us cause, to tell my own story and shed light on the tireless sacrifices our nation’s volunteers make each and every day to protect their communities.

Cee Lo’s new video for ‘Thank You’ features some of the brave men and women that protect America’s homes, businesses and roadways.
