Quick Flicks: Joe Jackson In Las Vegas For Michael Jackson Tribute

joe jackson Quick Flicks: Joe Jackson In Las Vegas For Michael Jackson Tribute

When Joe Jackson hit Las Vegas this past Saturday it wasn’t to place his face in the cleavage of college age girls [this time at least] but to be present at the unveiling of his son Michael Jackson’s star at the Palms Casino Resort’s Walk of Fame.

“I wish he was here to see this take place,” Joe Jackson said of the son who died June 25. Police have labeled the death a homicide.

With the sounds of “Thriller” coming from the speakers and a drum line playing, the patriarch of the Jackson family smiled and posed for pictures as the star was unveiled in front of the Brenden Theatres.

The ceremony was actually two years in the making, organizers said, adding that Michael Jackson wanted to coordinate the unveiling with some type of major event.

“The plan was that Michael would accept the star after the run of London shows,” said emcee Robin Leach.

Meanwhile, further west on Saturday night, at the Hollywood Bowl, Liza Minnelli said at her concert, “Today would have been Michael Jackson’s birthday. And I loved him with all of my heart, and I will miss him for the rest of my life.” [source]

A little back-to-back dirty rice sauciness never hurt nobody. I am still stuck on Solange and I sharing similar taste in hoe couture. I always joke around about being having the proud blood of Agnes Dereon pumping through my veins but this may just be the validation I need to have my creole credentials sent to me. I knew I loved that chicken from Popeye’s more than the average for a reason. God is in the building.

letoya Promo Trail: LeToya Lucket At The 2009 J&R MusicFest

Although LeToya Luckett has come a long way from peddling cds and mason jars of marmalade out of the trunk of Slim Thug’s El Camino on the northside of Houston she also sadly proved that it is possible to host an awards show without the general public knowing who the fuck you are.

And that’s dreadful. Simply dreadful. Simply deep dreadful. But anybody capable of escaping the clutches of the Killer Knowles Klan deserves some type of shade-free recognition. Unfortunately I can’t be the source for that since her record company didn’t break any bread with me. Politics as usual.

No Lil’ Mama, You Are The Face of Transgenders In America

If you have been skimping out on your weekend serving of tang courtesy of the fantastic femme footwork of Vogue Evolution then take a moment out of your hectic day to chew this ass. The jealous butch queen vibes were on full throttle as the team rehearsed for the Week 4 Bollywood Challenge, prompting the dance troupe’s resident Deena Jones [or Effie if you're feeling messy] to exit in dramatic cunt fashion, resulting in the kids giving a subpar final performance.

All too aware of the self-inflicted emotional wounds that her tranny brethren scar their pretty little souls with, Lil’ Llama tried her best to humble Leiomy Mizrahi down but fell short and just rehashed the fever that started this shit in the first place – - jealous butch queen vibes.

Somebody fucked around and let Tyra finally be great at something other than trying to be great at everything Ananda Lewis was already great at [including Chris Webber]. And we’re never going to hear the end of it. Ever.

Rachael Ray and The Tyra Banks Show won the talk show categories at the Daytime Emmy Awards for the second consecutive year on Sunday, while the women of  The View ended Ellen DeGeneres’ four-year reign as best talk show host. With the talk show category split into two for the second time, Rachael Ray took home honors for the “entertainment” talk show side while Tyra Banks scooped the “informative” prize.

“I love daytime television,” said Ty Ty Baby when accepting her show’s win in the informative talk show category. “I learned the birds and the bees from watching [General Hospital characters] Luke and Laura. I learned my ABCs, 1-2-3 from Sesame Street. This [Emmy] is for the women out there that do not feel beautiful . . . that do not have time to do their makeup. . . . This is for you guys.”

Slow. Hand. Claps.
