Question of the Day

How Dreadful, Lauryn

Just when you thought things were looking up . . .

Festival organizers say hip-hop and R&B singer Lauryn Hill has canceled all tour dates in Europe this summer for health reasons.

Stockholm Jazz Festival spokeswoman Liisa Tolonen says the artist’s agent informed the festival late Tuesday that all performances in Europe by the former Fugees singer have been canceled. This includes shows in Sweden, Greece, the Netherlands, Poland, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, France, and Austria.

Tolonen said Wednesday the agent cited health reasons for the cancellation but declined to give more details.

The tour would have marked a comeback to stage by Hill who has kept a low public profile in recent years. She was the planned headline act for The Stockholm Jazz Festival, one of Sweden’s biggest music events

This has island dick written all over it. What do you think is the real reason Lauryn Hill cancelled her upcoming tour appearances?

Jacking For Blogs: Swizz Is Still Banging Alicia Keys and He Wants You To Know It

Alicia Keys Swizz + Mashonda

It was all good a year ago. Oh well, this would make for a good Tyler Perry movie. From The House of Rhymes With Snitch:

Ok, so remember last year when Alicia Keys started dating married [with a kid] music producer Swizz Beats and threw that birthday party for him at the Guggenheim and all hell broke lose between him and his wife? [click here, here, and here if you don't] Well, Swizz just laced a track for Drake. You know, ‘Wheelchair Jimmy’ from DeGrassi Jr. High? He’s a rapper now.

Roseanne Was Right!

Rihanna

Rihanna is indeed a whore for propaganda. Last week the gossip was that she was spotted out at dinner with new rumored boyfriend, Los Angeles Lakers center Andrew Bynum. It actually turns out that Pon De Forehead may have been getting her Kim Kardashian on: seeking publicity by any means necessary. Girl, you so thirsty!

According to Bynum, he was eating dinner with his family (parents) at Mastro’s Steakhouse and Rihanna and her companions were seated at a nearby table. Rihanna came over and introduced herself to Andrew and asked if she could have a photo with him. Andrew was flattered and happily complied.

They left around the same time, and paparazzi outside got all riled up, assuming they had dinner together. Rihanna didn’t deny it. Naturally rumors that they were on a date buzzed all over town. Afterward Bynum wondered if she had used him in some way or it was a coincidence. [source]

The negro community frowns down on your shenanigans, Robyn. See more candids of Rihanna and Jay-Z after the jump.

You Sent It: The Puppeteer

I Cannot

VIEW ADDITIONAL SOUL SNATCHING ANGLES

I need this shit in my living room at once! I have a perfect spot right between Black Moses.

Crunkster Mac N Cheese dropped off this gem [via Kanye's blog] featuring Ike and Tina that is sure to go down in not just C+D history but our history as a nation. Our children need to read about this in social studies one day!

The crown jewel, in Waters’ epic display, however, is the beyond-lifelike sculpture of a dapper Ike Turner circa 1965, kneeling before, and holding the strings of, a marionette doll version of Tina Turner. Quipped Waters on our private exhibition visit about the headlines in the NY Post after Ike Turner’s death: “You know what they wrote when Ike died?: “Ike Beat Tina to Death!”

What is the appropriate age for the different folks to turn in their glowsticks and pick up an all access pass to Reglaville?

Star Tracks: Usher

Usher partied with his brother James and a couple of pole dancers in Paris, France over the weekend. Please do not forward this entry to Tameka. I’ve already experienced my fair share of server problems via the creole curse of the Knowles family. [Flicks via Fame Pictures]

Freeze Frame: Terri + Mary

terri-mary

Mary J. Blige is giving Terri McMillian the same look I gave myself after I finished watching Derek Luke do his best diddy bop for the first time in Notorious. Terri must have asked Willona Woods if she had any single relatives. The Devil is a liar and the truth ain’t in him.

Who’s That Peeping In My Window?

Go-Go Go-Go Go-Go

I haven’t had my damn coffee yet so this type of blatant act of tang as thrown the kid for a loop. For some unknown reason Go-Go thought that it would be a good look to tell People magazine that he peeped his next door neighbor Young Jeezy walking around butt ass naked.

The So Sick singer admits he was shocked to discover that he lived next door to Jeezy after moving into an exclusive Atlanta, Georgia neighborhood.

But he was even more taken back when he found he could see directly into the rapper’s pad.

Ne-Yo says, Just chillin’ one day, I was like, ‘Is that… Jeezy?

“I hit him up: ‘Yo, you probably shouldn’t walk around naked - I can see you’.” [source]

I’ve got nothing.
