07.27.2006 Nippy Watch
My apologies for the Nippy updates being few and far in between. From what you guys have been telling me in your emails, she is out in California with CeCe Winans. I don’t know how true that is but I just hope she is doing well.
Tina Brown is making her media rounds again. Here is an excerpt from her interview with Jamie Foster Brown in the August 2006 issue of Sister 2 Sister. I will scan the entire article later. My computer is on that kryptonite right now.
Sister 2 Sister: The tabloids are saying that Whitney is broke.
Tina Brown: But guess what? She has like 40 people on her payroll. They all have chauffeurs and buying brand new cars and all this, but she’s broke? Come on! She did Europe and she got $750,000 a night and when she got back I said, “Nip…” I always try to encourage her to handle her own bills. And come to find out, I said, “Where’s all your money, Nip?” She said, “They say I owe people.” I said, “You don’t owe people . . . ” Come on! And all that money does not go to drugs. They spend a lot of money on drugs, yah. But it’s not $750,000 worth.
S2S: Do you know if Whitney has a brain tumor or not?
TB: I don’t know. But the talk in my family is that she does! On the outside world, no! But in my family, yes! And (a family member) said the other day, “It’s getting worse. Let’s take her to the hospital.” And (another family member) said no because of the media. “We don’t want them to know.” So they got her on a phone and took her to–she’s going into her childlike states and everything. All the symptoms are there.
S2S: Does Bobby know about any of this?
TB: Bobby got a phone call in front of my sister. He dropped the phone and started screaming and crying. Come to find out, that’s what was said.
S2S: What was said?
TB: They called from California stating that she had a tumor. Why are they keeping this a secret, I don’t know. But it’s so much. It’s so much!
Yeah it is so much, damn.

Ashanti & Nelly At The Premiere of “John Tucker Must Die”
If I was about 10 years younger I would probably give a damn about “John Tucker Must Die.” But since I’m not you already know. Any movie advertised as “this year’s ‘Mean Girls’ ” is not my cup of tea.
I must be getting soft because all of these celebrity couples are becoming cute to me (Janet and Tattoo included). Here are a few pictures of Ashanti and Nelly at the movie premiere Tuesday. Ashanti’s family also came out to show their support. Her dad’s hair is awesome.

Key Kids, Are You A Side Line Ho?
If your man doesn’t take you to church and leaves you alone on the holidays, you’re a sideline ho. Hey, those are Monica’s words, not ours.
The R&B diva’s next release, ‘The Makings of Me,’ is due in September. The song ‘Sideline Ho’ was actually inspired by an ex who cheated on her with (gasp!) a video model. Co-produced by Tank, the mid-tempo track finds the new mom exposing the havoc wrought by that chick on the side.
Despite the obvious fightin’ words of ‘Sideline Ho,’ Monica tells AOL Music she was “much nicer” on wax than in real life. “I felt a little sad when I walked away from the situation, even for her, because he had no desire to be with her,” she says. “Looking back now, I kinda get it. I believe in love strongly and expect a lot out of relationships, so I think I was just too much for him altogether.”
Before the whispering starts about said cheater’s identity, let’s clear one thing up. “[He is] absolutely not my son’s father,” says Monica. “Hell no!”
(AOL Music)
I have nothing to say about this one. Click here to listen.

Your Two Cents Required : Janet’s New Video
Tonight I not only watched the world premiere (pre-miere, puh-puh-premiere) for the video “Call On Me”, but it was the first time I heard the song period. I actually did this on purpose because I wanted to get the full “experience.” I sort of wished I would’ve done the same with “Deja Vu” but I couldn’t seem to shake the song. Damn you Mathew!
Anyway, you know the drill. Questions, comments, or concerns?

Candids of Will Smith In NYC
I’m so happy to see Will out and about. Whoo, he isn’t on Suri Cruise watch any more. I was starting to think he joined a cult after listening to a promotional copy of Wicked Wisdom’s cd. But I will put away my Kerney Thomas prayer hankie since all is well. Seriously, my umi was worried for a minute.
But peep the guy on the side in the first photo. Look closely now. Can you spot a dirt angel? I smell manna from heaven.

07.26.2006 WTF Files
Everybody knows that Colin Farrell likes to dip in the chocolate from time to time. But something tells me that he didn’t put his stick any where near this fondue pot.
Former phone sex operator Dessarae Bradford is sticking like Krazy Glue to “Miami Vice” star Colin Farrell. Last week, she ambushed him on “The Tonight Show With Jay Leno,” storming the stage ostensibly to serve him with legal papers. Yesterday, as the Daily News’ Michelle Caruso reports, the 31-year-old Bradford staged a circus-like press conference in front of the L.A. federal courthouse, announcing she’s just filed another lawsuit against her target. “Not only am I suing him for slander but for stalking,” she told half a dozen reporters. “It’s affecting me.”
Bradford warned those present that if she didn’t like what they wrote, she’d sue them, too. As for the Leno incident, she claimed: “My whole purpose was to get Colin Farrell served properly. … I was intending to be a mini-diversion while my private investigator went up and served him. I never expected Jay Leno’s security to step aside. They parted for me like the Red Sea.” Bradford also handed out copies of her self-published book, “Colin Farrell: A Dark Twisted Puppy.” (continue)
Granted I went to a prom where guys were walking around with pimp cups and spiral curls but it still wasn’t this bad. Who has armed security at their prom? Download this power point presentation to find out. Thanks Diesel 15 for the laughs.
Update: Yllona was nice enough to convert the presentation into a PDF file. My God would like to say thanks so much.

Did Pon De Forehead just save a lot of money on her car insurance by switching to Geico? Tested negative for the clap? Or maybe she found out that she just secured a job as a worker in the wig crypt. I’m not sure, I’m hoping you guys can help me out.
She stopped by TRL yesterday to perform that damn song for the 5,429th time. I will say that I like the classy Rhianna better than the booty shake one. She still reminds me of a girl that I once knew. Um hmm.

Black Star Power, Eh?
At first glance I thought that BET was trying to assemble a Surreal Life inspired reality show but I was wrong. Hewpz, Chingy, Floyd Mayweather, and Posta Boy all made their way to Da Bassment (or whatever the hell) yesterday. I’ll like to take this time to announce that I will be hosting that shit next week. Yes, blogging has really opened a lot of doors for me.
Uh oh, I feel an annoying Dirty South rap coming on. Check her footwork, check her footwork! You ain’t got these, you ain’t got these!
