What the fuck is this, a State of the Union address? For those of you who don’t know, Ryan Leslie was recently accused of fraudulently creating YouTube accounts to garner more page views for his channel, RyanLeslie TV. This negro is clearly a graduate from the Don King School of Speech Writing.

WTF Files: Kevin Federline and Vivica A. Fox Get Hardcore
Kevin Federline is becoming something of a renaissance man: Dancer, rapper, model, baggy pants aficionado, and now he’s adding actor to his repertoire with a role in an upcoming film. The rapper, best known for his role as “husband” in the soap opera life of Britney Spears, will appear in rapper/actor Sticky Fingaz’ Caught on Tape, a film about a boy who secretly videotapes his mother’s boyfriend plotting a crime. Cedric the Entertainer, Vivica A. Fox, and Bokeem Woodbine are also set to star in the flick.
Time out. Bokeem Woodbine, Cedric The Entertainer and Vivica A. Fox being directed by Sticky Fingaz? Talk about the blind leading the blind. I’m too through. - - Fresh
“Caught On Tape is a hardcore musical, lot of violence, lot of sex, lot of action, lot of drama, lot of sentiment and romance as well,” Sticky told the U.K.’s Sun. “It’s the first time this has ever been done. Kev Fed is going to be in it, it’s his acting debut. He’s really cool, he’s dope.” Don’t peg Sticky K-Fed’s No. 1 fan yet, though. The director recalled almost being run off the road by paparazzi trying to take pictures of Federline. “I’m like, ‘Dude, hey, I’m the talent,’” Sticky said (Are you sure about that?). “He’s just married to somebody.” (source)
I’m still waiting for Ashton Kutcher to jump from behind my computer desk and say “I got your black ass!” Still.
Foxy Sentenced To Three Years of Probation
Foxy Brown was sentenced on Tuesday to three years probation and anger management classes for assaulting two nail salon stylists over a $20 manicure. How gangsta! Somebody please give this bitch some Seasame Street cred.
During her hearing, the 28-year-old singer asked that the guilty plea she entered in August be withdrawn. “I feel I am innocent. I feel I was coerced. I want to take back my guilty plea,” she said. But the request was denied by Manhattan Criminal Court Judge Melissa Jackson.
Brown, whose real name is Inga Marchand, must submit a sample of her DNA and undergo periodic drug testing, and was ordered to stay away from the manicurists for the next five years. She had been facing up to a year in jail if she failed to show up to court Tuesday. On Monday, the judge was angered when Brown failed to appear, claiming she was recovering from a tooth extraction. . .
“This was self defense. This was a scuffle over payment of a $20 manicure and she panicked,” said Rothman, one of several lawyers to represent the singer. “She had bad advice two months ago” when she pleaded guilty. His request was also denied.
Outside court, Brown said that she would still beat the charges.
“I’m a fighter,” she said.” I have an impressible spirit and an abiding faith in God. I believe that I will walk free.” (source)

Oh Inga, you can be so extra sometimes.

Hey Kids, Want An Afternoon Snack?
Wow, Diddy is really cutting corners when it comes to his artists. Instead of throwing Yung Joc a lavish party for to celebrate him reaching platinum status, he probably hired this private dancer (a dancer for money) to do what Yung Cock told her to do. I can smell the aroma of ass and black n’ mild smoke leaking out of my monitor now. Thanks Brittany (I think) for sending this tip in.
I’m . . . hyper. . .ventilating . . . as I type . . . this shit. Check out Lady Di’s fists and LaMichael’s side eye. Oh my damn, make it last forever! Movie industry insiders in Hollywood are fearing that Diana Ross is planning to wreck Beyonce’s Oscar hopes for Dreamgirls - because she hates the new musical which is loosely based on her career with The Supremes.
Los Angeles Times’ Hollywood insider Tom O’Neil claims “the original Dreamgirl” could create the kind of negative publicity that turns Oscar voters off if she “publicly disapproves” of the film, in which Knowles plays her.
He says, “A longtime friend and colleague (of Ross) tells me that Miss Ross hates Dreamgirls because she feels like she’s been ripped off, like its creators changed just enough key elements of her story so they didn’t have to pay her royalties and then refused to give her any input on how her story would be told.”
The singer’s biographer J Randy Taraborrelli is, however, convinced Ross will not blast the film.
He says, “I think that Diana has decided that there’s not much she can do about this and she wisely knows that there wasn’t much (R+B legend) Billie Holliday’s estate could do about her when she did (1972 biopic) Lady Sings The Blues.” (source)
