Bond was set at $200,000 Friday for R & B singer R. Kelly’s teenage nephew who allegedly tried to rob a barber shop but was shot by the owner earlier this month. Cook County Judge Reginald Baker set bond for Brayel Kelly of Calumet City at $200,000, according to Cook County State’s Attorney’s office spokesman Andy Conklin.

Diddy spoke to MTV back in September and had this to say about Luke’s portrayal of him in the upcoming “Notorious” film:

“People asked me years ago who you’d want to play me, and I said Derek Luke … so it was just destined. I got to see him do his thing, and it was scary for me,” Combs said. “I had to leave, ’cause he was acting just like me.”

We’re sure Derek’s training included writing “Take that, Take that” one hundred times on a blackboard, and methodically clinking glass bottles together until he achieved that signature Bad Boy chime.

In case you missed the premiere of the extended “Notorious” movie trailer on the BET Hip Hop awards last night, watch it now.

Child support rears its ugly head again for Evander Holyfield:

46-year-old Evander Holyfield is trying to get back into the ring for a final payday, and maybe this is why — he’s got to pay thousands in child support or face jail time. That’s the knockout punch his baby mama, Toi Irvin, could deliver next week when the ex-champ goes into court to explain why he hasn’t paid up like he was ordered to on September. 1. Irvin’s lawyer, Randy Kessler, says he’s going to make him pay for the ex-couple’s 11-year-old kid — or ask the judge to toss him into the clink. Holyfield made a reported $248 million during his career but has been less than liquid — so he says — of late.

All that paper, and nothing to show for it but a gang of debt and illegitimate children to pay for…This baby’s mom has been threatening to lock his ass up since July, Evander better cough up that dough.

The Game won’t have to serve any time:

A judge agreed to dismiss Game’s battery charges — for allegedly punching a cousin at a family funeral — as long as he does 36 anger-management meetings by February 2009. He could’ve faced clink time if convicted. The tiff was over money, you’ll remember, and Game’s relative dropped the dime on him at the funeral and made a citizen’s arrest … even before the body was in the ground.

If you knew you could punch your nagging ass aunt, the one who says you’re getting fat at every family reunion, right in her face and not get locked up, would you do it? Hell to the yeah! We hear you. Not that we promote violence, but come on Relative, at the damn funeral, though? Lord, have mercy.

Gas man let them fly when he went to the clink…please read the whole story:

Meet Jose Cruz. In the long history of American jurisprudence, the West Virginia man may be the first defendant to ever be charged with passing gas in the face of a law enforcement officer. Cruz, 34, was driving with his car’s headlights off Monday night when he was pulled over by West Charleston cops, who noted that Cruz appeared to be intoxicated. After failing a series of field sobriety tests, Cruz was arrested and transported to police headquarters, where he allegedly committed another offense, according to a September 23 criminal complaint. While being fingerprinted, Cruz allegedly “lifted his leg and passed gas loudly on Ptlm. Parsons. The defendant then fanned the air with his hand in front of his rear onto” the cop. “The gas,” the complaint notes, “was very odorous and created contact of an insulting or provoking nature with Ptlm. Parsons.” In addition to the DUI count, Cruz was also charged with battery on a police officer for the farting incident. In a TSG interview, Cruz said that while he “farted multiple times,” it “wasn’t directly in [the cop's] face.” Asked if he fanned the fetid air toward the officer, Cruz admitted that he did, but said it was in retaliation for the cop insisting he take a breath test while he was having an asthma attack. “I said, ‘Here, put that in your Breathalyzer,”

A traffic ticket = $200.

Lawyer fees and DUI classes = $1000 (depending on the state in which the crime occurred)

Farting on one-time = Straight f*cking priceless!

Now that’s what you call ASSault!!!

According to SOHH, Da Brat could face up to a year in the clink:

[Da Brat] struck a plea deal with prosecutors for her role in a club brawl last Halloween. For those of y’all who don’t remember Shawntae got buck wild at Jeramine Dupri’s costume party where Janet Jackson and Mariah Carey were in attendance which resulted in a cocktail waitress’s face getting smashed in by a full bottle of alcohol.The washed up MC was arrested and charged with aggravated assault and has been out on bail ever since. Da Brat is scheduled to turn herself in later on this week.

We’re sorry to hear this, but we have a feeling ole girl will feel quite at home among those rough-neck burly girls up in the pen.

Hopeless criminal DMX was officially charged yesterday:

The star – real name Earl Simmons – was charged in Arizona on Tuesday with one count of theft and one count of stealing someone else’s identity. The indictment is just one of many legal woes the hip-hop star has faced so

far this year. In January, he was arrested for allegedly speeding down a Phoenix, Arizona freeway. In May, he was charged with suspected drug possession and animal cruelty following raids on his Arizona home.

A month later in June the star was arrested for allegedly attempting to buy drugs from an undercover officer, and earlier this month he was taken into police custody for violating his bail terms relating to a previous incident in June of driving without a valid license.

That’s just one more step closer to the clink for Mr. Simmons. Trife

Holyfield is still holding out on the child support payments:

According to court documents the boxer hasn’t paid child support for his 10-year-old son Evan in three months! Holyfield’s baby Mama, Toi Jenese Irvin, is demanding Holyfield either pay his $9000 debt in full — or go straight to [jail]. Irvin also says Holyfield dropped their son’s health insurance — something he’s required to do by a judge.

SMH in particular about Evander dropping his son’s health insurance. He better auction some more shyte off and pony up the bread before he finds himself in the clink. Triflin ass.

Katt Williams could be facing some heat over harboring a known fugitive:

“U.S. Marshals raided the home of comedian Katt Williams on Tuesday (May 20) and arrested a man who was wanted in a drug related shooting. Police are trying to determine if Williams was aware that Robert McGhee [Williams' cousin] was wanted for the shooting and if he knowingly harbored a fugitive or if he was even home at the time of the arrest.”

We hope he comes up clean – we’d hate to see what would happen to his sawed off ass in the clink.
