Sean John (formerly known as Diddy) and his mom Janice attended the Raisin in the Sun premiere at Sundance.

We commend mama Janice’s confidence for rockin a skintight catsuit at her age, but damn, she should trade that blonde wig in for something a little more flattering. No comment on the hat and jacket.

Ne-Yo recently had a chat with Essence magazine and discussed gay rumors and R. Kelly beef:

Honestly, when I first heard that there were rumors out there about me being gay I thought, Wow someone must really hate me. There’s nothing wrong with being gay, but I just couldn’t understand why someone would make up lies like that. I remember speaking to Jay-Z about it and he was like, ‘Look, man you haven’t made it until someone says you’re gay.”

Okay, so because I can respect a woman’s shoe game, and not to mention that I’ve bought a few pairs of shoes in the past for the women in my life, that makes me gay? That’s hilarious.” Continue »

For all of you who always wondered why Jill Marie Jones left the cast of Girlfriends here is the answer:

First of all, let me tell you why I left. I left because I wanted to do movies. My contract was up after my sixth season and people forget that just like the network can choose whether or not to renew your contract, I can also choose and evaluate whether or not I want to come back. My actor’s chair that has Girlfriends and my name on it, you know the director’s chair? Well, on the very last day of my sixth season, I told them to grab my chair and put it in my car for me. So why would I take my chair if I thought I was coming back? Believe you me, I would tell you. I’ve never made a decision based on money. I was on the show for six years and I think that’s a good run. There’s so much more I want to do in my career and so much more I want to know and learn, but my departure definitely had nothing to do with money. Continue »

More and more reasons of why the suspect couple’s split keep pouring in…now they are saying that Eddie got crazy towards the wedding:

Tracey Edmonds broke up with Eddie Murphy right before they were about to make their Bora Bora wedding legal because Murphy became bossy and physically intimidating, and insisted his mother accompany them on their honeymoon. “That was kind of the last straw,” said a friend of the beautiful bride. “She was happy to sign a prenup — she has her own money. She was very accommodating. But then it was like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Eddie became very controlling and they got into a huge fight. He started screaming at her and grabbed her. She was scared.” The friend added, “She was even willing to change her name to Tracey Murphy, and all the wedding invites and place cards had her labeled as such.”

They can keep the reasons coming, but we all know the truth. Eddie and Johnny just need to tie the knot and get it over with.

Busta Rhymes, aka Trevor Smith pleaded guilty yesterday to assault charges, driving while intoxicated, and driving with a suspended license got off very lightly (3 year probation, $1,250 in fines, 10 days of community service, and DUI school). Here is what Busta had to say about the system:

“I believe in the system. It hasn’t failed me personally yet. I’m just glad that all this stuff is finally behind me. I can get back to doing what I do best, making great music and great films and being a people person. I’m very grateful to the judge. I’m very grateful to the system.”

Yeah we bet. Everyone would believe and be grateful to the system if they got off that easily.

He seems to be trying to keep it on the low and “pass” but Jessica Alba’s K-Fraud, Cash Warren, is Black. His father was basketball player and actor Michael Warren.

He must have read K-Fraud’s ‘How to Get Your Stacks Up 101′, knock her up and get engaged quick. This is the sure path to big stacks in Hollyweird if you are a a back up dancer or film assistant.

Here is a picture of his pops back in 1984. Thanks Dee

Chef Raekwon recently dissed Joe Camel and Kanye West. Make sure you pay attention to the last part of the story:

Wu-Tang member Raekwon has launched a shocking attack on two of Hip Hop’s most prized assets, Jay-Z and Kanye West.

Speaking to the New York Daily News, the Killer Bee criticised the pair, saying that they were not ‘street’ enough, “A lot of street people don’t put stock in them anymore because they aren’t doing enough to excite anyone.” Raekwon went on to say that the pair had lost touch with their roots and in order to restore their credibility the two superstars should return to the “hood” and donate $100,000 (£512,000). When asked if he would be donating too, he stated that he didn’t have the finances to do this.

SMH.

According to a recent report, Obama is making it rain on Hillary Clinton in South Caorlina. Here is the WSJ discussing some alleged class divisions within the Black community on Barack Obama:

A poll this fall by the Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies, a black think tank, shows the wide disparity of support for Mr. Obama among blacks. While 75% of blacks who went to college had a favorable or very favorable view of the candidate — rising to 88% among blacks who went to graduate or professional school — support dipped to 62% among those with just a high-school degree and to 42% among blacks who haven’t finished high school. A similar pattern shows up as income levels fall among blacks. And while 83% of blacks employed full time had a favorable view of Mr. Obama, just 55% of unemployed blacks did.
