YouTube Clip of the Day

Aww, this clip touched me on the inside and made me call out Barry White’s name. I hate myself for remembering this song. Back in the days when I was a young crunkster in training I would stay up late and listen to Bigga Rankin and the Cool Runnings Crew [DU-UUUVAL!] play shit like this on Friday nights. Andre 3000 said it best, “we grew up on booty music we did not know no better thang.”

Much Ado About Nothing

Much Ado About Nothing

shay1 Much Ado About Nothing

When rumors of an alleged relationship between Andre 3000 and Shay “Buckeey” Johnson hit gossip blogs many were left scratching their heads. I was devastated to say the least. Around 10:00 pm last night I received an email from PR consultant Nicole Price responding to the allegations.

Hey Fresh-

I am a PR consultant in New York who works with Shay “Buckeey” Johnson of VH1′s Charm School. I received an e-mail from my laywer earlier today regarding a posting on another gossip site claiming my client was in a relationship with Andre 3000.

After speaking with Shay, we are both very confused as to where this might have come from but it’s actually false information. Although I thought those two pics together looked quite nice, she’s not in a relationship with Dre…at all.

Earlier this morning she retracted her statement and said that Shay didn’t want to comment on the situation. Okay fine, whatever.

Then I received the following email from Kim Tumey, who also claims to be Buckeey’s PR Rep. Excuse me but this is freaking Buckeey we’re talking about. Not Bishop Tutu, Buckeey.

Public Notice: Shay “Buckeey” Johnson of Charm School is my client and hasn’t responded to the rumors of her and Andre 3000. So, we regret to inform you of this wrongful information from Nicole Price as Kim Tumey is her PR rep not Ms. Price. So, for any media concerning Shay “Buckeey” Johnson we ask that you contact us at www.KimTumeyEntertainment.com or 214-783-9453 to get the correct facts. Thank you!

I love SWSNBN and her puppetmaster just as much as the next Stan, but Kelis and Nas will always be my number one (right behind Andre 3000 and Erykah Badu, sigh). God’s Son got his grown man on for the good people at King while the wife kept it funky for GQ.

Levi also sent over the cover for Kelis’ new cd. It makes you kinda look twice. Can’t say that about everybody’s shit I’ve seen this month. Well?

Get it right, get it right, get it tight indeed! If Robine blinks I swear she is going to have a brain aneurism. I’m getting a headache just by looking at her. And Wendy, poor Wendy. I think she is just as confused as her outfit. I luh her like cooked food but this look is making me clutch my pearls. She has on Olivia Newton John’s leggings from the “Let’s Get Physical” video and some Andre 3000 circa 1998 snow bunny boots. Girl stop.
