Estelle Gets Groupie Love

estelle self Estelle Gets Groupie LoveEstelle gets plenty of peen tossed her way courtesy of male groupies,which she refers to as “he-hoes.”

“They’ll come out and say, ‘Yeah babe I really respect you.’ Then they’re also like, ‘The beautiful Estelle’ and I’m like, ‘Erh what do you want?’ And they’ll go on, ‘I have seen you a lot…’ and I’m like, ‘Because I’m a rapper and a singer and I’m on TV?’ “It’s funny. I’m like, ‘Yeah cool, nice to meet you. You don’t need my number. You really don’t. I don’t have a UK phone. I don’t live here anyway,’ ” said Estelle.

She also insists that she is not playing horizontal polka [copyright Steven Q. Urkel] with John Legend.

“Stop insulting me with that. It’s like I couldn’t have got where I am because I do good work? You lot have seen me hustle and struggle, so if someone comes along and is appreciative of my talent, guy or girl . . . I’m supposed to sleep with them? We’re good friends and that’s as far as it goes. Have respect for me and for him because, obviously, he wouldn’t have signed me if I was sleeping with him. Not a lot of groupies get signed. To me that’s borderline disrespectful. He appreciates my talent,” she blasted.

Alright, damn, we believe you. Everybody already knows how Puss In Boots operates any way. Miss Honay! Miss Honay!

The Soul Train Awards Have Been Derailed

There’s always the Ozone Awards.

The “hippest trip in America” has pulled the plug on its annual award show. Reuters Life is reporting that the Soul Train Music Awards has been cancelled without explanation. The brainchild of former Chicago DJ Don Cornelius, “Soul Train” was due to celebrate its 22nd award show this year, but a spokeswoman for the program said the show would not go ahead as planned.

At last year’s event in Pasadena, many of the winners did not bother to attend, including such A-listers as Beyonce Knowles, Mary J. Blige, John Legend and Gnarls Barkley. [source]

I knew the Soul Train Awards were on its last legs in 2004 when Arsenio Hall showed up looking like he asked Bubbs from The Wire for a couple of fashion tips and then turned around and co-hosted the show along with King Latifah the following year. Now how you love that?

Here are a few flashback flicks from last year’s show. Enjoy!

A tipster tells me that singer J. Holiday and model Jessica White enjoyed a romantic dinner at Negril in New York City last night. During their time Holiday couldn’t stop caressing White’s face as they laughed the night away. The crooner also made sure that John Legend’s ex flame enjoyed every bite of her meal by feeding her.

I had my doubts about this guy in the beginning (he gives me hard & b Dirt Angel vibes) but he seems to know how to treat a lady. In my opinion the two make for a rather cute couple. What do you think?

I was going to apologize for the lack of posting yesterday but eff that. When an opportunity comes for me to make my own holidays I take it. What, it’s okay for you to have a long weekend but not me?! Ha, try again. With that being said posting may be a little slow until after Tuesday . Gracias mi amigo.

But while I am here I might as well do what I do best: talk shit. The sexual tension between Slickback Ivanhoe and John Legend reached a fever pitch at the Playing for Good Foundation Poolside Party. As you can see, Johnny Boy had to take a moment to compose himself. Slickback tends to have that effect on people.
