Rozonda “Chilli” Thomas has landed an endorsement deal with Coco-Cola products for Dasani water. The former TLC member has also made it a family affair and has included her 11 year old son, Tron in the deal:
It means so much to me to be in the DASANI campaign because I drink DASANI water all the time. So to get a phone call to represent DASANI water is amazing. To drink water as much as I do and to be a part of that and campaign for it…I just felt like it was a good fit; and to find out I can work with my son…he was so excited and I was so excited! It’s just been amazing! The chance to represent the brand I love and have fun working with my son is a thrill. I can’t ask for anything more than that.
Chilli will also be participating in DASANI’s Ultimate Style and Beauty Experience where one lucky mom can enter to receive a chance to win a 4-day/3-night all expenses paid trip to Atlanta for them and a friend, where they each will receive VIP treatment with a spa day, photoshoot and an opportunity to meet and hang out with Chilli.

Monica discusses her favorite O.S.A.M. (Old School Atlanta Memory). She fondly reminisces about winning her first talent show at the age of 11 by singing “The Greatest Love of All” at Center Stage. She had me dying when she told me that she was “in the midst of getting a ponytail…not my own” and arrived at the venue with her hair molded so that she could be on time!

Monica also spoke about how she felt the love from her hometown of the “A” and how Ryan Cameron, Kevin Wells & Dallas Austin, who were all there to support her first big day, are still in her life today.
Thanks Mo! You’re the best 🙂

I was perusing Essence yesterday and ran across Keyshia Cole’s sister Neffe speaking about recent gossip and rumors. Being that I’ve had a few encounters with KeyCo’s big sis, my radar went off as I delved into the article. All I can say is, publicity is KING! Neffe goes in on gossip and “rumors” and addresses the most recent one about her mother being killed in a car accident. She states that the rumor mill started with Wendy Williams but I think it all started with a crazy “A”zz text message.
After clearing up that vicious rumor about her mother, she went on to address her recent pregnancy. What I found odd was that Neffe also addressed the pregnancy as a “rumor” stating:
“We take the good with the bad. I’ve been dealing with it probably more than my mom; like the rumor that I was pregnant again, which I am not. I don’t make up rumors because it’s putting out bad karma. My mom doesn’t even want to leave the house now until this passes over. You have to take it for what it’s worth, pray and just deal with it.”
Correct me if I’m wrong…but didn’t Neffeteria actually confirm her own pregnancy? Her moms and her own man were claiming that she was 3+ months preggers and then suddenly the pregnancy just disappears? Hell, she even told me out of her own mouth that she thought she was but it was a mistake and that she didn’t know what was going on with her body.
I don’t know what’s going on with her, but I think it’s time she hired a publicist or at least kept track of her own stories. Shiiish! It’s not that hard….I did it and I don’t even care that much: Continue Reading…
