Keyshia Cole and her adorable son, Daniel Jr. sat court side last night at the Cleveland Cavaliers v. Lakers game last night while her boo, Daniel “Boobie” Gibson earned his check.
As you know, the Cavs (who are considered the worst team in the league right now) totally shook the Lakers in a 104-99 win after coming off of a 26 game losing streak. Daddy “Boobie” was all smiles as he hung out with his family after the game…

After being placed in the middle of a betting war between battling talk show hosts, Michael Vick has decided to take a moment to consider his options!
According to TMZ, the Philadelphia Eagles quarterback had called and canceled plans to do a sit-down interview with Oprah Winfrey, but later released a statement saying he was putting Lady “O” on pause…
After careful consideration, I will need to postpone the taping of the Oprah Winfrey interview scheduled for February 22. I admire and respect Oprah and hope to be able to participate in an interview in the future.
No word on when “the future” will be in this case. I wonder if all that betting stuff got to him?

While perusing the Land of Crunk, I came across T.I.’s wordy expression of his love to his wife, Tameka “Tiny” Cottle-Harris. It’s so refreshing to see a man who actually appreciates a woman who’s been down with him through thick & thin.
Hate all you want, but those two have a unique bond that may even last the test of time.? Love is a beautiful thing! From jailhouse hand jobs to Happy Meals for the kids, no one does it for Clifford quite like Tiny.
Check out what Clifford says about his boo-thang below:
Can?t say enough about how special of a woman I have. It takes a lot to endure the worst of times and still stay grounded during the best of times. She?s been able to do so for long as I can remember. For all that and more, I just adore her in every way. I love her spirit, her heart, her integrity and her loyalty.
She?s the love of my life and the girl of my dreams. I?ve heard so much about it being hard for true love to exist in the fast lanes of Hollywood, when dudes can?t stay respectfully committed and chicks can?t stay out their man?s pockets. But somehow she makes it easy, and we never had those problems. Continue Reading…
Usher rocked the red carpet of the 53rd Annual Grammy Awards wearing a pair of Vivienne Westwood Seditionary Boots (Retail: $673).
The stylish slouchy ankle design boots feature a contrasting paneled leather and buckle straps. While some spotted Usher’s footwork and thought “what the hail?” there were several fashion forward thinkers who thought Ursh’s “New Look” was the sh*t!
One such “fashion forward” thinker was spotted on the streets of New York during this year’s Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week… Continue Reading…
If you’re from anywhere NEAR the Atlanta area, you already know that Coca-Cola is THE soft drink of choice for us ATLiens.
With the “A” being Coke’s primary headquarters and the city in which the worldwide brand was created, it’s only natural for it’s residents to favor their hometown’s creation and it’s secret recipe has always been a sacred thing.

So whooda thought that an internet radio show would obtain that info and put it in the streets for free?
Especially considering the fact that one of Coke’s own secretaries risked life and limb to sell that bit of valuable information to their rival soft drink competitor PepsiCo for a few million dollars (only to be ratted out and subsequently sentenced to 8 years in prison).

But I digress…
An Atlanta pharmacist named John Pemberton is credited with inventing the popular soda and his original recipe was written down in a binder that also contained the ingredients of various ointments and medicines that had been passed down from generation to generation.
A photograph of that recipe, from that very recipe book, was published in the Feb. 18, 1979, edition of the Atlanta-Journal Constitution and no one has ever realized it’s significance… until now.
In case you’re wondering what’s (allegedly) in Coke’s secret recipe, check out the historical photo PLUS details below: Continue Reading…
CeeLo Green performed his hit song “F*ck You” aka “Forget You” during the 53rd Annual Grammy Awards wearing a bright colored feathery ensemble. Lo performed the song as a duet with Gwyneth Paltrow and they were joined by a slew of muppet characters.
Lo’s stylist, Shawn Barton reveals that it was Elton John’s classic muppet performance that sparked her creativity in Ceelo’s costume.
Cee Lo is a huge fan of Elton John. It was an homage to Elton. Cee Lo remembered that episode on The Muppets from when he was maybe about 5 years old.
