Star Tracks: Mary J. Blige Visits The Wendy Williams Show

mjb Star Tracks: Mary J. Blige Visits The Wendy Williams Show

What more can I say to describe Mary J. Blige’s appearance on The Wendy Williams Show that wasn’t already addressed in my chat with YoungSinick this evening?

I know she’s not that awkward in person. I bet she be cursing and shit, trying to shoot pool. I love her. Like, if she’s friends with Tamar Braxton you know she can talk. She hangs with Taraji P. Henson and Tamar now. Said she hasn’t seen Lil’ Kim in years. Shade says she rolls with the wealthy and relevant. Let me stop before a Kim stan swoops in. Mary probably doesn’t wanna be bothered with Kim, though. Still talking about Biggie like it’s 1995 and she just escaped Faith Evans’ wrath.

And that’s what friends are for. Peep a snippet Willona Woods’ chat with Wendell after jump.

lhh2 In Other News: The Love And Hip Hop 2 Reunion Is Going To Be A Snoozefest

First the bad news: The ‘Love & Hip Hop 2′ reunion special won’t feature any bottles of Moscato being swung at Kimbella’s head.

Now the good news: Chrissy’s hair is still laid and the displaced chocolate chip on her face is still intact.

Due to all the cat fights and arguments amongst the cast, the powers that be were forced to switch things up since several of the thug misses of Love & Hip Hop 2 refused to be in the same room together. Instead of taking the traditional reunion show route Executive Producer Mona Scott-Young will interview the gworls one-on-one on Monday night’s special episode, dubbed the ‘Love And Hip Hop: Reality Check.’

Chris Brown being listed by British GQ magazine as the worst dressed man in the world garnered the same resounding response from C+D readers: Have they seen Lil’ Wayne lately?

Crunkster Devon echoed her opinion: “Oh, because Uggs, crocodile skin tights, leg warmers and young ass sweatshirts are hot?”

No Money, Mo Problems: Mo Money Taxes Keeps Customers Waiting

Posted by Fresh on February 2, 2012

The above clip isn’t a teaser scene from the long awaited sequel to Master P’s cinematic gem ‘I Got Da Hook Up’ but instead a commercial for Mo Money Taxes. The Memphis, Ten-A-Key based tax return service is currently embroiled in — you guessed it — scandal of the “It’s my money and I need it now!” variety.

Customers say they were promised their refunds within a couple of weeks, but when the time frame passed, they reached out to the IRS. It was then they learned their cash was already issued. When you put your faith and W-2 forms in a business called Mo Money results tends to vary.

Keyanna Hyman, who obtained records of her refund being deposited by the IRS two days ago, said, “He told me the IRS still had a hold on my money, that they were a week behind. I told him ‘no, I just spoke with the IRS. My check is here.’ He put me on hold for 20 minutes, came back, and told me there was a glitch in the system. That’s why I don’t believe it.”
