Hopefully you’re NOT reading this post from behind the wheel of your car. If so… put down the phone!!
A 21-year-old woman is being sued after she struck and killed a 70-year-old pedestrian while allegedly updating her Facebook page on her cell phone.
“Facebook while driving” is a common occurrence and now the family of a victim who was killed in the crash is seeking damages citing Facebook as the major cause of the crash. Continue Reading…
Royce Reed may be a lot of things, but apparently she’s none of ’em on TV.? Reed started off her stint on VH1’s “Basketball Wives” with a bang… by pop, lock & dropping it low for a crowd of onlookers during last year’s Superbowl festivities in Miami.

However, since that time she has faced several legal battles with her baby’s father, NBA star Dwight Howard, the most damaging of which has caused her days to be numbered on the hot reality show.
According to TMZ, sources close to the show say Reed’s on the way out and it’s all because of that ongoing legal battle…

Royce can’t even mention Dwight’s name in the media because of that 2009 gag order. Her son isn’t allowed to be filmed and the injunction imposed during that hearing SEVERELY inhibits her ability to participate in the show … aka … she’s boring!
Word is… producers want Royce out ASAP … but haven’t found a replacement yet.
Royce responded to the news with:
“If they are indeed searching for a replacement for me it is what it is. It all seems petty and immature to me”
Unfortunately that’s the business of TV Royce. Nothing petty about it. Either start shakin’ it up again and acting out… or get GHOST!

Legendary soul singer Aretha Franklin is noticeably slimmer these days since having surgery in December. The 68-year-old Franklin underwent surgery during that time for an undisclosed ailment, which some believe was gastric bypass. 
Although Franklin denies it, she has never specified exactly what kind of surgery it was, stating only that it was “more than minor surgery.”
Regardless of the gastric-bypass rumors, Franklin say she lost the weight by working out and walking on a track three times a week. She’s given up her beloved chitterlings, pigs’ feet and ham hocks in favor of a Whole Foods-type diet, and hopes to get down to a size 16.
“They’re off my diet. They just really don’t fit with Whole Foods,” she said. “I had it for enough years that I don’t miss it. You can’t continue to eat things that are not good for you.”
She’s right about those ham hocks & pig’s feet…. not only will they kill you but they’ll make your breastesses BIG AS HELL! 😯
Ms. Franklin was also spotted recently sitting courtside at a Detroit Piston’s game (photos below).
I guess we’ll be seeing a lot more (or shall I say a lot less) of her on the scene now that she’s happier with her appearance.
You go girl!

B.o.B., Whiz Khalifa & Bruno Mars cover the February/March 2011 issue of Vibe Magazine.
Vibe refers to the trio as “The New Pop Music” and offers the follwing explanation:
“…each of them has taken their own sound and infiltrated the masses thereby making them figures in popular culture and pop music. Don’t front, you know you can turn to any Top 40 music station and hear their music.”
I guess they’re right. These three have infiltrated R&B, Pop AND Hip-Hop. It’s a beautiful thing!
