The famed nonprofit was debating whether to close one of its four sites uptown or cut back on sports and tutoring programs throughout Harlem.

But Diddy, who lived in Esplanade Gardens, off W. 148th St. and Adam Clayton Powell Jr. Blvd., until he was 12, said he didn’t want kids from his old neighborhood to lose out.

“Being from Harlem, I heard they needed help, and I wanted to help,” Diddy told the Daily News. This “is something that I am proud to do.”

Boys & Girls Club of Harlem board member Willie Bentley said he talked to a friend who works for Diddy last Tuesday in hopes the star could help. By Friday, the five-figure funds were sent to the club. “The contribution puts the club in a good place for the time being,” Bentley said. (source)

The money will help pay for basketball games, math and reading tutors, plus gym classes for the 3,000 kids who attend the sites located on W. 144th St., W. 133th St., Amsterdam Ave. and Adam Clayton Powell Jr. Blvd.

I called off my obsession with Evan Ross when a copy of the unabridged version of Act Like A Lady, Think Like Terrence Howard made its way into his possession, vowing to never look back. But his new-found appreciation for snazzy blouses has put his love back on top in my book. LaMichael bossed up by dancing like the bastard child of Dame Dash narrowly escaping an ass lashing at Mouf Breeva’s Las Vegas pool party over the holiday weekend at the Palms Casino Resort. I want this forever.

It’s time to welcome some of your favorite celebrity tweeters back to the land of the living.

Last week, several celebs temporarily signed off their Twitter accounts and Facebook pages to help raise $1 million for Alicia Keys’ Keep a Child Alive organization. They proclaimed their own Digital Deaths last Wednesday on World AIDS Day and met their goal Monday (December 6). Some stars began tweeting immediately.

The idea was hatched by Keys, and she and other celebs urged their fans to buy back their online lives by texting the first name of the celebrity they miss on social media the most to contribute to the cause.

“From the bottom of my heart, thank you to all of the fans, friends and artists who joined this cause,” Keys said in a statement. “I’m incredibly inspired by all of the donations that have been made to help us achieve our goal and so humbled by the outpour of support from everyone.”

Now that the tweeting ban has been lifted, celebrities including Keys, Lady Gaga, Kim Kardashian, Ryan Seacrest, Justin Timberlake, Usher, Jennifer Hudson, Khloé Kardashian, Lenny Kravitz, Jay Sean, Swizz Beatz, Serena Williams and Janelle Monáe are now back to using the popular online social-networking sites.

The organization received a big boost from billionaire and philanthropist Stewart Rahr, who matched $500,000 in funds raised by the public who donated to the cause. (MTV)

Minus the beauty supply store eye contacts (people, let Shar Jackson do Shar Jackson) all signs point to a clean diagnosis. Tameka’s Curious Case of the Cottles has been cured! Run laps around the church house and do a jig if you please. I already have.

Love looks good on Mr. and Mrs Harris. #teamlittlecouple

I couldn’t be more ecstatic that my eternal love muffin B. Scott has successfully made the transition from internet personality to multimedia maven. Michelle Williams joined our friend in the head last night during his inaugural radio show on Jamie Foxx’s Foxxhole Sirius station.

Other bloggers can choose to hate if they want but we all know that when the smoke clears  and the ass dust settles none of us want to remain in the same lane forever. I know I don’t! Shouts out to everybody out there extending the power of their brand. I may not be able to reach out to you all individually but know that I am proud of you. Even the shady queens

Its with great pleasure that we announce the restart of Side-Eye Fever  here at Crunk & Disorderly. Like “sad Lil’ Mama face” and other idioms, the phrase “giving a side-eye” is a special part of the C&D vernacular.

To start things off right, we have a picture of Queen Creole Deluxe engaged in some side-eye action with a young fellow at the groundbreaking ceremony of the Barclays Center in New York back in March.

And as with any new venture here at C&D, we bid you welcome. Now go to the comment box and handle your business.

GET MORE SIDE-EYE FEVER

If you see a creole hanging their head in sorrow today know that it has nothing to do with Queen Crab Etouffee offering her sacred honey bun to an unworthy trout and everything to do with the following.

If parts of the new Lady Gaga/Beyoncé Video Telephone ring a bell with gay porn fans, it’s because two high-profile gay porn movies (Big Rig from Buckshot and Dare from Falcon) were filmed on the very same set. We hope they wiped off Jason Crew’s butt juice off this banquette before Beyoncé sat in it.

You can read more about the connection over at The Gossip Jacker [NSFW] but please be advised of  Jason Colby Taylor’s sausage vying for a spotlight on Food Network. Guys Big Bite, indeed!

Dwight Eubanks and the latest rage here in Crunkland Malik So Chic turned the Let’s Talk About Pep’s Nose season finale viewing party into the biggest movie ever, tentatively titled Traces of My Nude Lipstick. I just want your extra time and your . . . kiss!

WHO IS STEAMING UP THE GLASS POT LID MORE?

Months after introducing her ass to the American Music Awards stage Jennifer Lopez has parted ways with her longtime label, Sony’s Epic Records. Try to keep your composure, there are small children around.

Justin: The internet is so messy, sad, and unpredictable just like Jennifer’s music career.

Fresh: Just when the world was gearing up for her triumphant return, this happens.

Justin: Her triumphant fail. Natalie’s chin has a better chance of garnering a record deal than J. Lo.

Fresh: She wore that catsuit on New Year’s Eve for nothing.

Justin: You talking about that catsuit that just sat up on her like Lil Kim’s wigs, just non existent and not serving a purpose?

Fresh: Yup, that one. Those twins better start looking for work soon.

Justin: They don’t have to find work that soon… Marc Anthony still makes money as the face of Anorexia Anonymous.

Fresh: Maybe she can fill in for Cheuy on Chelsea Lately when he goes on vacation. Doubt anybody would notice the difference.

Justin: She was looking kinda squat on the AMAs.

Fresh: Celebrity DJing is calling.

Justin: LOL, Solange sure was able to pay her bills on time.

I vote yes! I have been guilty of walking around with  Bank of America and Verizon towers under my floppy disks when purses are a no go for years. Don’t judge me. If this thing doesn’t smush Newports you already know Megan Good and Amber Rose will fight over the title of  official spokeswoman.
