Look out for Beyonce in the next 007 flick, Quantum of Solace:

“Beyonce Knowles is being lined up to do the soundtrack for the new Bond movie after trainwreck Amy Winehouse pulled out.”

We’re not surprised to hear that basehead Winehouse backed out. We’re sure Bey will make a more than an adequate replacement for the job.

Nas’ decision not to call his new album Ni**er has put a smile on ole Al’s face.

“The 34-year-old New York native wanted to use the title to make a political statement about the hypocrisy in hip-hop. But criticizm from Def Jam record executives and fear of a decline in sales persuaded him to pull the title on Monday, just six weeks before the album hits stores on July 1.

And Sharpton is calling the rapper’s decision a ‘partial victory’ for racial-equality activists.

He says, ‘The record companies have to consider the downside of using it, business-wise. That would not have happened if we hadn’t protested. I have a lot of respect for Nas. I liked what he said about Sean Bell. We have a fundamental disagreement on this. He can rap against me. I’ll preach against them. We’re still friends.’”

Al got what he wanted, and Nas will have increased record sale. Sounds like everybody got their back scratched here.

19 year old construction worker Jonathan Vargas just became a mega-baller. He won a $35.3 million Powerball jackpot in South Carolina. This cat must be giddier than a mf at this point. We suggest he pull it together – hopefully he doesn’t make it rain for real and invests those stacks wisely. He’s got a lot of years of spending ahead of him.

Tyler Perry has come a long way:

“Tyler Perry tried to commit suicide during his abusive childhood, after suffering at the hands of a violent father. The 38-year-old failed, and later changed his name to disassociate himself from his miserable upbringing.

Perry – born Emmett Perry – says, ‘As a kid, I considered suicide and even attempted it a couple of times because I thought it would be easier to be dead. I remember when I was 17, I did something that ticked (my father) off – something minor. My father grabbed me, threw me to the floor and stomped me. Continue »

Your girl Bey is finally acknowledging her situation:

“I don’t deny it (the wedding). I just don’t talk about it. We’ve never talked about us and it’s kind of protected our relationship. I think it’s kept us out of tabloid drama. A lot of actresses that have had successful relationships don’t talk about them, so neither do I.”

Good for them.
