Easter Sunday 2011, Bishop Eddie long rocked his cream and lavender muscle vest suit and confidently preached a cryptic message to the four men who filed lawsuits accusing him of sexual coercion.
During New Birth Missionary Baptist church’s annual Easter service, the “Bishop” addressed his congregation with the standard sermon about Jesus rising from the dead for our sins, but throughout his delivery Long made a point of sending a few subliminals to his accusers:
You ain’t messin? with me. I shall rise again and I ain’t going through this… Continue Reading…
Curtis James Jackson III aka “50 Cent” covers the April/May edition of VIBE Magazine.
Fiddy sits alone and lonely one of the photos from the mag, where he’s labeled a “global terror”.
In a revealing Q&A with VIBE, Jackson addresses his controversial love life and admits he and late night talk show host Chelsea Handler are “friends” and so are he and Ciara.
If you recall, Fiddy and his ex-boo Ciara got into a “war of words” online a few months ago, and coincidentally it was around the same time the 36-year old rap mogul and talk show comedienne Chelsea Handler were rumored to be hot & heavy.
I’m sure those double-duty friendships can cause a lot of friction, but Fiddy reveals confidence is KEY to keeping a man like him interested.
Check out what he has to say about the status of his friendships with both ladies below: Continue Reading…
Remember that $500,000 lawsuit Dwight Howard filed against his baby mama in Florida Last Year after she posted pictures online and talked bad about him in forums?
Well he won a $500,000 judgment in that case, but he never got a cent, so he’s going after her in California!
If you recall, Howard won the judgment against Royce Reed for half a mil last year because she violated a court order, prohibiting her from talking about him in the press.

Reed then accused Howard of kidnapping after he picked their son up from daycare early, but that was subsequently dismissed.
According to TMZ, Howard has headed back to court to file a settlement violation injunction, claiming Reed now owes him $551,606.74 (which includes interest since she’s made no payments) and he’s filed paperwork with a California court, which could possibly give him the right to go after Reed’s assets in Cali.
[Sidebar: whatever “assets” she has… which sources say equal ZERO!]
I guess he’s suing for the return of his child support…. *shrug*

Word on the curb is that Soulja Boy aka DeAndre Cortez Way, is planning to fill Tupac Shakur’s shoes in his legendary “Juice” role.
Soulja Boy, who recently released a released a? mixtape by the same name as the classic film, announced that he will be playing the role of legendary West Coast rapper in an upcoming biopic.
He specifically spoke about becoming ?Bishop,? stating:
Basically, it?s your boy Soulja and I?m Bishop in 2011, running around in the streets, man. You know how the movie goes, but we?re flipping it and shooting in Atlanta.
I want to show these people my acting side and me being creative?always giving them something new; that?s all. I got same video director that shot ?Crank That,? ?Kiss Me Through The Phone,? ?Turn My Swag On? ?my most successful videos.
The whole mixtape is the soundtrack for the movie.
Filming will begin ?soon”… whenever that is.
I’ve always had mad respect for SB and his hustle… but Juice? I dunno about that.
I’m sure that Pac’s “I don’t give a f*ck” attitude in the historic role is what all young gangsters aspire to be, but carrying off the role in a remake will be a challenge for even the best of ’em.
Do you think SouljaBoy will be able to fill 2pac’s shoes in a “Juice” remake?
