During a heated exchange with female impersonator Sheree Whitfield (more on that troll later) on this season of ‘The Real Housewives of Atlanta’ resident loudmouth NeNe Leakes made it clear that she didn’t need to dispute over mere chump change since she is living high off the hog thanks to the payday she received for her stint on ‘Donald Trump’s Celebrity Apprentice,’ adding “While you were running your mouth, I was running to the bank depositing a Trump check! I’m rich, bitch!”

Enter Fantasia’s Aunt Bunny to let out a resounding “Gworl, please!”

Wet Paint – Viewers assumed that must have been one hefty check because, just a few episodes later, Nene was shown checking out million-dollar Miami mansions, musing over whether or not she wanted to buy one!

Wetpaint Entertainment caught up with Donald Trump, Jr., who appears alongside his father on Celebrity Apprentice, at the Z100 Jingle Ball presented by Aeropostale, asking what exactly he thought NeNe meant when she bragged about her Trump payoff.

“Honestly, I have no idea,” he told us. “All the celebrities on the show play for charity. She received a small appearance fee, sure, but that was it.”

“And as far as I know,” he added, “she’s not involved with any of our other business or corporations. So I’m not sure what she’s talking about.”

Jason Derulo needs to find a better avenue to pay for studio time because this shit is tired.

The fifth accuser involved in the Bishop Eddie Long sexual misconduct case says an alter ego he calls “Wild Child Kemp” saved his life after a reported suicide attempt.

“I’m just Centino. I don’t consider myself a gender. I’m not a transvestite, transgendered . . . I’m a boy, and I like being a boy,” said Centino Kemp in his first ever TV interview with Fox Atlanta.

“I am not the fifth accuser. I’m Centino Kemp, I didn’t accuse nobody of nothing,” he said with a smile.

Kemp waltzed into town during an ongoing high profile lawsuit and — without joining the suit — walked away with at least $94,000 in his pocket. Some of his closest friends in Atlanta find it all hard to understand.

“He came here, had his story together, and he got money off of it,” said Willie Alexander.

The story is now well known. Four young members of New Birth Missionary Baptist church filed sexual misconduct lawsuits against Bishop Eddie Long. The suits were later settled. Money was paid. Bishop Long denied any wrongdoing.

After the suits were filed, Centino Kemp showed up in Atlanta . He had been living in South Florida and North Carolina and was never a member of New Birth Missionary.

But as the Bishop Long case moved from the public courtroom to private settlement talks, Centino Kemp joined in. Kemp wouldn’t discuss the case, and pointed out his name isn’t on any lawsuit.

“I am not the fifth accuser. I’m Centino Kemp, I didn’t accuse nobody of nothing,” he said.

So, why was he in the case? Less than three weeks after the Bishop Long lawsuits were filed, Centino Kemp says he tried to kill himself. He was admitted at the DeKalb Mental Health Center. He told therapists he had been sexually involved with Bishop Eddie Long for years.

“I was in a dark place, I can say that,” Kemp said.

Kemp would not tell FOX 5 why he tried to kill himself, but the I-Team confirmed that Kemp told the staff he had been “sexually and physically abused for six years by Pastor E. Long.” Records indicate Kemp stayed two days and then asked to be discharged after telling the staff he was with “crazy people…I’m not like them.”

Kemp told I-Team senior reporter Dale Russell that during his stay, his alter ego, Wild Child Kemp, took over and saved his life.

“I need to get up out of here, I can live. I don’t have to be suicidal taking pills, because I have better opportunities than other people here. That’s when like, Wild Child, was like, ‘You need to get up, let’s go,’” Kemp said.

But Kemp’s closet friends in Atlanta don’t understand it. Willie Alexander and Jayson Cobb met Centino after the Bishop Long settlement. After hanging out with him for months, they both question his story.

“He sits up all night on the Internet and watches Eddie’s online sermons,” Alexander said.

Both say they don’t understand why Kemp had no pictures, notes, e-mails or anything from Bishop Long. As for Centino’s tattoo on his wrist that says Eddie Long, Alexander said, “He told me he had it some years ago but that tattoo looks recent.”

Kemp told Dale Russell that his friends are just mad at him because he stopped giving them money.

After Centino Kemp sat down for the I-Team interview, his publicist released promotional material for an autobiographical book called “First Lady.” The book promises tales of the “lust, violence, sex, and lies” that surrounded Kemp’s long-term relationship with a renowned African-American bishop.

Alexander has read a draft of the book.

“He hasn’t had a relationship with nobody. He don’t know how to deal with people,” said Alexander.

Kemp’s friends say they saw the settlement documents that showed Kemp was paid $150,000. They say legal fees and expenses were deducted.

The I-Team confirmed the amount paid to Kemp was $94,149.81.

“I’ve died and come back to life, literally,” Kemp said.

Kemp collected his settlement check in May and moved in with Willie Alexander in a Peachtree Street high rise. But then, after a few months, like a ghost, he vanished, leaving behind a box full of his music and a room full of mysterious memories.

“He wants to be famous. He’s star-struck. I just…. he wants to be famous,” said Jayson Cobb.

Kemp said he has no regrets.

“I am 22 years old. I don’t regret anything I’ve been through in my life, because it all made me stronger,” said Kemp.

Jamal Paris and Spencer LaGrande, both New Birth members, went on Atlanta radio station V103 recently and said they never met Centino Kemp and never once saw him at the church.

Bishop Eddie Long is seeking to recover at least $300,000 each from all three young men, alleging they violated their confidentially agreements. (source)

Didn’t we almost have it all? Just in time for tonight’s episode of ‘Basketball Wives LA’ picture perfect couple Girl Melanie Barnett-Davis and Derwin “Ding Dong” Davis Gloria Govan and Matt Barnes have confirmed the end of their engagement — again. While the former couple didn’t divulge details of their split I’m sure one thing we can all count on is that they will remain committed parents to their twin sons, Isiah Michael and Carter Kelly.

Matt’s statement: “I’d like to address the rumors surrounding mine and Gloria’s relationship. We have reached the difficult decision of ending our relationship and will be going our separate ways at this time. We will work together to raise our sons and wish each other only the best.”

Gloria’s statement (via Twitter): “I’m sure you guys are hearing a ton of buzz about Matt and Me breaking up, sorry to say… its true!!! But the most important thing is focusing on my kids and continuing to have a good relationship with their father, thanks for your support!!!”

Now that T.I. is a happily married man Hewpz’s vagina is living to fight another day! Don’t you just love a good come back story?

Shaquille O’Neal got more than he bargained for when he sat down for breakfast at a Waffle House in Tennessee last week — because the dude was the target of a practical joke that was executed to perfection.

Sources at the Waffle House — yeah, we got those too — tell us Shaq arrived with Hoopz from the VH1 reality show “Flavor of Love” … and they both saddled up at the counter.

We’re told they each ordered scrambled eggs with cheese and a waffle — and Shaq had an orange juice … an OJ that would play a key role in the prank when Shaq got up to use the bathroom.

We’re told Hoopz pulled the ‘ol “Dump the salt in the OJ” routine — and when Shaq returned from the can, he took a big, fat sip of the tainted concoction. We’re told everybody laughed at the gag … including the big man.

But the best part of the meal — when it came time to pay the $20 bill … Shaq left a $30 tip. (TMZ)

You would think that if a parent broke into Hollywood playing roles in culturally significant films like What’s Love Got To Do With It Apocalypse Now and continued to be an artistic force throughout their career that their child seeking that same fame would travel down the same route.

Not if she is looking to Kim Kardashian for inspiration.

Signing on with Vivid entertainment for a one-shot pornographic film, Montana Fishburne (who looks like a black Julia Stiles) has decided to take on the pseudonym “Chippy D” in her first foray into the business. I know Laurence Fishburne is about to blow a gasket right about now.

Boy and girl take picture together in hot sweaty club. Boy and girl are  romantically linked once picture hits the internet. Girl remains quiet about rumors and receives free viral promotion for her tanking album.

But boy through a monkey wrench in girl’s marketing plan today by denying the relationship by releasing a statement through his adviser.

First it was Tony Romo dating Carrie Underwood and Jessia Simpson.

Then it was Miles Austin with Kim Kardashian.

Now it’s rookie wide receiver Dez Bryant dating a celebrity.

Well, hold up. Several websites have linked Bryant with popular rapper Trina. There’s a photo of them together at a club.

But we’ve been told it’s not true.

“There is no truth to the rumors that Dez Bryant is dating rapper Trina,” adviser David Wells said Thursday. “Dez is very much in love with long-time partner, Ilyne Nash, with whom he is looking forward to building a home.”

Bryant just became a father for the second time. His son, Dez Bryant Jr., was born June 25.

“Additionally, as a proud new father of Dez Bryant Jr., it is important for him to defend the bond within his family,” Wells said. (source)

Not even JuJuBee from RuPaul’s Drag Race can fuck with this. Self employed [she got her on] female impersonator, Charles Thomas, was arrested in Tampa, Florida on an outstanding warrant after he tried to purchase two MP3 players and a television at a Big Lots store with a fraudulent check in the amount of $329. What? The queen’s palace must be entertaining and immaculate at all times.

Deputies also arrested the Laverne to his Shirley, Christopher Hart, for giving them a false name.

All in favor of Chuck signing on as the official face for Akon’s Konvict cologne say “I”.

If you can’t out perform them or outshine with hoe shit you might as well join them on the front row of a fashion show. With her sponsor literally not too far behind Cassie hopped on the last train to Paris to attend the Gareth Pugh Ready to Wear show in Paris last night.
