In Montecito, Yorba Linda, Corona, and Brea, California, fires have been blazing out of control for 2 days now and hundreds of homes have been lost:

Southern Californians weathered a second straight day of devastation Saturday as wind-blasted wildfires destroyed hundreds of homes, shut down major freeways and forced thousands of residents in the path of flames to flee to safety. Montecito, ranked by Forbes magazine in 2006 as the seventh most expensive area in the US, with an average home price of $2.9m (£1.9m), is a popular retreat for the rich and famous. Celebrities such as talk-show queen Oprah Winfrey and Hollywood actors Michael Douglas, Jeff Bridges and Rob Lowe all own property in the area.

A wildfire stoked by powerful Santa Ana winds damaged or destroyed at least 42 homes in Yorba Linda and Corona Saturday and charred more than 1,000 acres.The fire forced thousands to evacuate the area, while streets and freeways were snarled with traffic.A smaller fire also burned in Brea, near Carbon Canyon and Olinda Village.

It is rumored that the fire was started by an ex-owner of a home. Apparently, it made more sense for him to set that b*tch ablaze once it foreclosed.

We have several pictures from the fire below.

Crackhouse wasn’t hiding from the One-Time, she was just trying to get those rocks up off her boyfriend:

Amy Winehouse went on a wild rampage around Camden last night, screaming for her husband and banging on the door of her old flat some 100 meters from her current home. The troubled star appeared to be completely out of it and was worryingly emaciated again, with sores all over her face. The wild-eyed singer - still without her trademark beehive and minus her trademark sweep of black eyeliner – then made her way back to her flat clutching a liter bottle of vodka via a building site, signing autographs on the way.

Amy then handed a bottle of vodka to waiting snappers, before shouting through a window: “It’s hard going for a year without sex,” Her drug-addict husband Blake Fielder-Civil is due to rejoin his wife tomorrow, having gone straight to rehab from prison where he served time for GBH and perverting the course of justice.

We really feel sorry for this chick these days because this is just getting out of hand now. She literally looks like a zombie walking around with her face bleeding like that. SMH

50 Cent is pushing his album back further than Ne-Yo’s hairline:

According to a press release, 50 cent decided to push his album back to early 2009. The move comes as 50 Cent was rushing to get his album finished for a December release, however it is not complete. With the deadline to secure advertising and retail placement for the album imminent, he decided to move to a date in early 2009. It will also include a DVD, of a 90-minute film, also titled Before I Self Destruct, a coming of age story about an inner city youth raised by a hardworking single mother. When his dream of becoming a basketball player fails to materialize, he finds himself employed in a supermarket. After his mother is tragically gunned down, Clarence (played by 50) is consumed by revenge and takes up a life of crime in order to support his younger brother.“Times are hard,” stated 50 Cent. “Everyone is trying to make the most of what they have. I want to give my fans something extra for their hard earned dollars. They’ll get a free bonus when they pick up the album.”

Just like TI, Luda, and many others in the rap game lately, it seems like Curtis is trying to mature. We appreciate 50′s courtesy, but we still aren’t buying his album; recession or not.

Remember the half man, Thomas Beatie, who had a baby a while back and was on Oprah…well he/she is back and pregnant again:

Thomas Beatie — the “pregnant man” who made headlines and gave his first exclusive interview to Oprah Winfrey and People magazine — is pregnant again. Barbara Walters — who’s profiling Beatie and his wife in a one-hour special tomorrow night on ABC called “Journey of a Pregnant Man” — revealed today on The View that during their interview, the couple said they’ll give birth again in June. “I said I’m speechless,” Walters said during the morning gab fest. Beatie — legally a man — gave birth to his first child, a baby girl, back in June. His story made world headlines and sparked a rush of comments on this blog months ago.

Ol’ TomTom is pretty much a woman with no tittays and a mustache but is living it’s life as a man. But if you want to be a man, then why physically have a baby? The “wife” does that.

Bugs Monkey played down the gangster persona in a Tyra interview during which she felt compelled to finger his bullet wound like it was some kind of magic lamp. Bugsy looks like a happy puppy with that ear to ear grin.

Take a gander at him licking her makeup, yea you read that right, licking her makeup…

We don’t know exactly what Mad Magazine means by rise and fall, because Wayne is one of the few rappers making serious money these days. We do have to give it up to Mad though, they got it spot on.

Rodney King and his Dark & Lovely texturized kitted up crop talks bout his stint on the Celebrity Rehab show:

Rodney King is swigging a beer as he talks with TV’s “Dr. Drew” Pinsky. “Every day I wake up with a beer is a good day,” he says as he drains the bottle. King, whose on the second season of VH1′s “Celebrity Rehab,” is still dealing with drug and alcohol dependencies.  King calls his participation on the show and new found sobriety “a blessing.”

King: It felt like I was, in one way, helping a generation before me and a generation coming up after me, to let them see a good, fairly decent human being struggle with this disease. After a while, I didn’t even really notice the cameras. I threw that out of my mind and just focused on me and what I was there for. What I was there for was to help myself, and at the same time I knew that by me being upfront with this thing that other people would see and they might think, ‘It’s not so embarrassing, let me go get myself some help.’

Although Celebrity Rehab ain’t sh*t, we can’t knock him getting help. Besides, anything is better than getting shot in the face.

Master P is offering an escape route from the hood, but first you’ve got to help pay Lil Romeo’s tuition:

Most people don’t know that out of all of the millionaires in the world, entertainers and professional athletes make up only 1% of that number. Network marketing and Investment travel is an untapped market with unlimited growth potential. It’s time to wake up and grow up. Build a profitable business without overhead and employees. All you need is $500 and a computer; you can make millions. If you can turn on the computer, search, blog, chat or shop… you have what it takes to run your own successful business.

Well d@mn, a pyramid scheme? Come on P, you can do better than this. SMH. For those buffoons who still want to sign up regardless of our disclaimer, handle your business.
