Freeze Frame: Cake Bawse
You may be satisfied with being presented with a simple ice cream cake on your born day but that just won’t do when you are the cot damn Bawse. Served with warm breast milk, this work of confectionery art landed in the mouths of hungry Miami women over the weekend. Do you want a taste?
Buzz Notes: Andre Leon Talley Wants To Be On Top
Ruining the dreams of anorexic models was his calling card. Andre Leon Talley and his velvet peep toe slippers will replace Miss J. Alexander as the resident geigh of color on 3 upcoming cycles of America’s Next Top Model. Are you ready to breathe again?
Though he’d never watched “Top Model,” he had “no hesitations at all.” Nor did his Vogue boss, Anna Wintour. “Her reaction,” said Talley, “was, ‘Fine, André. Just let me know when you’re going to do it and how it’s going.’” (Reached for comment, Wintour said through her spokesman, “André is always onto new things on television, and I think his latest adventure sounds like a lot of fun and I look forward to watching him on the program.”)
Quick Quotes: Fantasia + Young Dro
Infidelity on Young Dro’s part was often rumored to be the reason behind his split from Fantasia, but the former couple who now remain as friends says their equal passion for their craft [don't laugh in the face of love] caused their relationship to end. And now I cry the tears of Teeny.
SHE SAYS
“I mainly just focus on my career right now… Everybody wants love (but) right now it’s not my main focus. When I let it be my main focus, it interfered with everything else I had going on. I kinda stopped performing. I became kinda like a housewife. People were like, ‘What are you doing? You married, you have kids?’ I’m a Cancer woman – I love very hard. I feel right now I had to make (my career) my first love because I fought so hard for it – this is my boo (boyfriend) right now . . . Dro is hilarious. He will keep you laughing. He’s very fun. He reminded me of my father — that’s why I fell in love with him. He’s a good man. Shout-outs to Dro.”
HE SAYS
“We spent a lot of time running around from state to state. The time came for us to separate. I guess she was trying to do more of her music and I was getting on my gritty with my music. There was a little more to that though — we’ll discuss that at a later time. She’s cool though. We just broke up last year. There was a lot of rumors before then, but we broke up last year, 2009. She’s cool. She reaches to me when she wants to talk. I reach out to her when I want to talk. I talked to her when she was on the set of Oprah.”

A Check Is A Check: Elise Neal
Did Will and Jada put roots on the cast of All Of Us?
The House of Scientology is nothing to play with. Let’s see. Duane Martin is keeping his name afloat in Hollywood by defending his sister-in-law’s hoe shit, LisaRaye is three ATM withdrawals from becoming Diamond in real life [see Fantasia's pizza story on Oprah], and the last time I saw little Khamani Griffin was in Lil’ Kim’s “Download” video.
And now this. Yup, sounds like dirty rice magic to me.
This month, ‘My Manny’ starring ‘Hustle & Flow’ actress Elise Neal and ‘ER’ actor Sharif Atkins is returning for a third installment to TBS.
The sitcom is called a micro-series because it will air within commercial time during Tyler Perry’s ‘Meet the Browns,’ every Wednesday evening for five consecutive weeks. This new type of programming is the network’s way of retaining viewers during commercial breaks and integrating a brand through a natural story line.
‘My Manny’ follows Jennifer, played by Neal, as a widow and successful caterer, who hires Mike the Manny (a male nanny) to care for her 8 year-old son, and ends up falling for him.
This time around, Disney Parks is on board as the show’s exclusive sponsor and the episodes follow the family as they on vacation to The Magic Kingdom and Epcot. [source]
I don’t even want to know what Tony Rock and Lovita Alize Jenkins is up to.

Day Late, Dollar Short: So Nobody Is Going To Comment On That Damn Tooth Pick?
. . . Then I will. I’m going to keep this short and sweet: Kim Porter’s response to Misa Hylton-Brim’s interview with Cherry Martinez was to be expected. Her flailing that fucking tooth pick around like she just finished up a $7 rib platter was not.
