Oh Fiddy……

LOL!!!

After a week of speculation, false reports and being branded a ‘”woman beater” after allegedly attacking girlfriend Rihanna,  a spokesperson has issued a statement on the behalf of R&B star Chris Brown.

“Words cannot begin to express how sorry and saddened I am over what transpired. I am seeking the counseling of my pastor, my mother and other loved ones and I am committed, with God’s help, to emerging a better person. Much of what has been speculated or reported on blogs and/or reported in the media is wrong. While I would like to be able to talk about this more, until the legal issues are resolved, this is all I can say except that I have not written any messages or made any posts to Facebook, on blogs or any place else. Those posts or writings under my name are frauds.”

What a sorry state of affairs………

A music industry business manager has contacted SOHH.com and put Jim Jones’ dire financial situation on blast!

This is what he had to say…..

I read on the allhiphop.com rumor section that Jim Jones is getting sued by a team of producers who he jacked for his “Bad Santa” album. As a Manager for a producer who placed 4 tracks on this project and I can confirm this rumor as true.

I have been trying for months to resolve this situation with Koch, Chris Luck, Yandi Smith, and Jim’s lawyers. I was told by Jim’s team that they were waiting on E1/Koch to open up the budget and that everyone would receive their producer declarations and checks by the end of the January. Once February rolled around I remained very skeptical of the lies from Yandi Smith, Chris Luck, and Jim Jones, and that’s when Jim’s manager Yandi Smith and lawyers at Seldemeyer and Associates in a last ditch lie instructed me to contact E1/Koch in order to receive my producers check.

You’ll be surprised to know that upon contacting the E1/Koch financial department last week the truth was revealed. It turns out that E1/Koch had cut Jim Jones, Byrd Gang Records and Jones Family Productions, the whole lump sum check for the budget for this album months ago, in addition to checks for two future projects. This unidentified employee in the the E1/Koch financial department expressed to me that I am not the first, nor the last manager/lawyer to contact them regarding Jim’s misappropriation of budget checks designated for payments to producers and featured artists.

In fact under sworn secrecy I was divulged information that the IRS in looking into Jim for possible tax evasion due to his embezzling of these funds. This employee of E1/Koch as well as a source at Sony also informed me about Jim Jones’s current financial problems and possibility of bankruptcy resulting from his lack of income due to his debut Sony album being pushed back for a 2 years period, in addition to his extravagant buyout (It was rumored to be $10 million plus) he was forced to pay Cam’Ron in order to be released from his Dip Set contract and retain his Jim Jones Stage name.

I cannot believe that my Jim Jim might be broke! Say it ain’t so Jim…….

If this story is in fact true then I lay this squarely at Damon ‘Bruk Pocket’ Dash’s door. He is the jinx who has been advising Jim on business moves, and Dame’s current state of bruk pocketness has spread over to my Jim. 

I just hope and pray that Jim manages to get his financial situation in order, so that we can go on that planned romantic trip to Hawaii.

Jade Goody has been told she has only months to live, her publicist Max Clifford has said.

Mr Clifford said doctors at the Royal Marsden Hospital in London broke the news to the former reality television star on Friday.

The mother-of-two is now getting her affairs in order and making plans for her sons’ future, he added.

Last week Goody underwent a successful operation to remove a cancerous tumour from her bowel.

Mr Clifford said: “She was aware that the cancer had spread but they said unfortunately it was a question now of when rather than if and when she pressed them as to how long she’d got, they said ‘months’.”

The 27-year-old learned last week that cervical cancer diagnosed in 2008 had spread to her bowel, liver and groin.

Like I’ve said before, I will be the first to admit that I was never a Jade fan, but this is awful news. I hoped she would pull through some how….

It’s quite a story…..

In 2003 a young woman from Bermondsey South East London rose to fame off the back of a reality show (Big Brother). She then went on to make millions of pounds and got caught up in ‘living the dream’.

Then the downfall came in 2007 after Jade (who was now noticeably full of herself) agreed to appear on ’Celebrity Big Brother’, and was later kicked out of the BB House in disgrace after becoming embroiled in a race row. 

A year and a half later she was then diagnosed with having cervical cancer live on India’s version of Big Brother…….. 

I suppose all Jade can do now is spend the precious time that she has left with her sons.

X Factor winner Alexandra Burke has signed a £3 million US deal with Epic Records.

Burke said, “I’d love to crack the US”.

…………………………………………………………………….

I can just see it now. If Alex goes on to crack the US market she will become even more unbearable and fake. 

But congratulations Alex. I wish you the best of luck.

…and “forgets” to shave her legs.

I want to believe that she turned up to the NAACP Image Awards with hairy exposed legs, as part of a dare.

She is a comedian after all. Perhaps it was a joke……

SMH………

Other then that she looks nice.

Prince Harry does it again!

Via The Telegraph 

Prince Harry has become embroiled in a new race row after allegedly telling a comedian, Stephen K Amos, that he did not “sound like a black chap”. Mr Amos, from south-west London, made the disclosure on Five’s The Wright Stuff on Tuesday.

He told presenter Matthew Wright that Prince Harry, 24, congratulated him on his performance before saying: “You don’t sound like a black chap.”

As Mr Wright looked on in disbelief, Mr Amos added: “I wanted to say in a West Indian accent, ‘How is I supposed to sound?’”

Asked if the remark had been made in jest, he replied: “I hope it was.”

I’m with Harry on this one. Stephen does not sound like an angry, gruff, ”street talking” black man. He sounds far too white, educated and efeminate for my tastes!

No but seriously, Harry’s comment doesn’t surprise me. Why should it? Look at his background! Look at who his grandfather is.

I just look forward to the day when Harry totally loses completely and drops the N-Bomb. lol.

And as for you Stephen,

“I wanted to say in a West Indian accent, ‘How is I supposed to sound?’

You wanted to say it? You SHOULD have said it!!!
