The Game In Love

By: Dee SoI don’t know the storybehind these pictures. I don’t know if this was The Game’s first love, if she’s his baby mama, I don’t even know how old he was when these pictures were take. What I do know is that I like seeing throwback pictures of celebrities. Check out a couple pictures ofThe Game and some girl from back in the day. Ibet he was really feeling her. I wonder is that the same chickthat went on "Change of Heart" with him. I’ve got to revisit that video…

Fire Your Stylist: Remy Edition

By: Dee I know I’m not the only who’s seen rapper Remy Ma on various occasions and wondered why her friends let her come out the house looking crazy like that. Then I recently found out that it’s her friend who is styling her. Karu Daniels of AOL Black Voices caught up with her friend/stylist, Monica Smith and talked to her about Remy’s style. She basically said that Remy doesn’t really like a lot of colors and the stand out thing about Remy is her black and blonde hair.I understand wanting to work with a friend because she knows you better than anyone else. But ifyour friend’s workis not improving your situation, you need to let them go. Remy is an attractive girl, but she needs to hire a professional stylist to help her step her style game up. source

Game vs. Slash

By: Dee The Game recently made a trip to London to do some promotional work but things soon got out of hand. It all started out as a normal drop session with the Slash TV crew, then it just got ugly. Watching the video can give you a better perspective on the whole situation. But I will say that the video ends with The Game and his Black Wall Street gang of about 15 pulling off, while the Slash TV crew of 3 are really feeling themselves. Game just can’t catch a break, if he isn’t beefing with G-Unit,he’s being chasedaway in theUK… Watch Here

Jermaine to Quit Virgin?

By: Dee Rumor has it that Jermaine Dupri is threatening to quit his job as president over at Virgin Records because he’s blames them for his girlfriend, Janet Jackson’s poor record sales. He believes they could have done a better job at promoting the album and could have gotten her more radio airplay. Though promotioncould bea factor in Janet’s low sales (even though she did Oprah, and what’s bigger than that), I think the biggest setback was releasing those 2 lacklustor singles. Not saying that the songs were bad, I just don’t think they were good enough to be used as comeback singles. It also didn’t help that the album basically got bad reviews across the board. But if Jermaine wants to point the finger at Virgin for Janet’s flop, let that be his thing… Source

Who is Deelishis’ Baby Daddy?

By: Dee Since the final episode of "Flavor of Love 2" aired the internet has been abuzz over who the father of Deelishis’ child was.No one cared aboutLondon Charles/Deelishis’baby daddy until shesaid onthe last show that he had "money on top of money on top of money". After that, she hadall of America wondering if she was a a rapper, maybe an athlete,a radio personality, something. Well, wonder no more, according to a radio interview with Deelishis, his name is Jim Colmer and he’s not a celebrity, just some alleged rich guy. I’m kinda disappointed, I really wanted it to be somebody famous, then there would be more to talk about…

Eva Mendes showed off her sexy body and million dollar smile while presenting the award to the Ferragamo family. Kanye, looking dapper arrived with beautiful fiance Alexis, who seems to be accompanying him across the globe from NYC to Paris and LA. Why is Kanye so polished? Generally, he is known for putting together eccentric outfits. Could Alexis be influencing his style?

Au Revoir Tony

Surprise Suprise! Eva Longoria and Tony Parker have called it quits. After months of speculation that the couple was "growing apart," they decided to part ways. Did we ever think that the hottest Desperate Housewife and the french NBA superhunk would make their way to the alter? Hell no!! The lifespan of a Hollywood couple seems to be two years tops. I am sure Eva is not sitting at home crying over her frenchman. One man’s loss is another man’s gain, and I can think of at least one person she can call to rub her back and make her feel better…..

Guess Who?

Is this the same Beyonce we all know and love? Beyonce sheds her $5000 weave in favor of an around the way girl natural cut. Is it true that money can buy looks?
