Quick Quotes: Fantasia + Young Dro

TASIA DRO Quick Quotes: Fantasia + Young Dro

Infidelity on Young Dro’s part was often rumored to be the reason behind his split from Fantasia, but the former couple who now remain as friends says their equal passion for their craft [don't laugh in the face of love] caused their relationship to end. And now I cry the tears of Teeny.

SHE  SAYS

“I mainly just focus on my career right now… Everybody wants love (but) right now it’s not my main focus. When I let it be my main focus, it interfered with everything else I had going on. I kinda stopped performing. I became kinda like a housewife. People were like, ‘What are you doing? You married, you have kids?’ I’m a Cancer woman – I love very hard. I feel right now I had to make (my career) my first love because I fought so hard for it – this is my boo (boyfriend) right now . . . Dro is hilarious. He will keep you laughing. He’s very fun. He reminded me of my father — that’s why I fell in love with him. He’s a good man. Shout-outs to Dro.”

HE SAYS

“We spent a lot of time running around from state to state. The time came for us to separate. I guess she was trying to do more of her music and I was getting on my gritty with my music. There was a little more to that though — we’ll discuss that at a later time. She’s cool though. We just broke up last year. There was a lot of rumors before then, but we broke up last year, 2009. She’s cool. She reaches to me when she wants to talk. I reach out to her when I want to talk. I talked to her when she was on the set of Oprah.”

Open Air: Happy Late Birthday, Tasia Mae!

Today’s commercial break is brought to you by the letter Q, Southwest Airlines, and the underrated acting abilities of Kadeem Hardison. Damn that boy good.

Between Al Sharpton dancing and shit [copyright Eddie Levert] at the Apollo and Papa Joe plugging his new Gangsta Grillz mixtape I totally neglected the fact that Tasia Mae celebrated her 25th birthday yesterday. Since she is a walking martyr I think we all should take a few moments out of our day to acknowledge her greatness. May the love of Fantasia and Young Dro live in our hearts for forever and a day.

Style Jury: Chad Johnson

Chad + Spike

If this ain’t a power couple then I don’t know what is. I just made a heart shape with my hands.

I expect Spike Lee to show up to events dressed this way [he's Spike Lee, shit goes without saying] but Chad Johnson walking around looking like the H&M version of Young Dro on the other hand, absolutely not. What’s your verdict?

Kiddie Party Brings Out The Grown Folks

Zonnique

VIEW GALLERY

Clifford and his baby mama Lashon Dixon put their legal beef on the back burner [on low, simmering] long enough to celebrate at the joint birthday party of son Domani and Tiny’s daughter Zonnique over the weekend.

Clearly Tiny and her eyebrow ring are both martyrs for peace. The Jesus in Tiny loves the Jesus in Lashon. [Reference!] Essence magazine would be proud.

Zonnique isn’t T.I.’s daughter by DNA but he claims her as his own, Diddy x Quincy style. All these kids and baby mamas get confusing after a while! It’s like going to a family reunion and trying to figure out which kids belong to what parents before you cuss them out for playing dodge ball by your car.

Is this a party for kids or for grown people? I’m just saying how I feel. You ever notice how Black people are always confusing the two?

J. Hud To Sing For Obama

jhud1 J. Hud To Sing For Obama

Jennifer Hudson has revealed she’s “thrilled” Barack Obama has asked her to sing the national anthem at the Democratic National Convention.

Hudson, a native of Obama’s home town of Chicago, was asked to sing “The Star Spangled Banner” at the convention at the request of the Illinois senator, Theola Borden, her publicist at RCA Music Group, said on Tuesday.

A representative from the wig crypt was unavailable to comment.

I don’t have anything against Jennifer but I believe Fantasia would’ve been a better selection. Young Dro could have really set things off by sauntering on stage Bobby Brown style and dabbing the sweat from her brow and snatch area.

In other related news, according to Crunkster CoopISeeYou former rival Hillary Clinton will hit the stage Thursday night in a House of Dereon Couture dress and drop down low and sweep the floor with it to Luda’s ‘Monkey Maker.’ You’ll just have to tune in to see what really happens.

Another Day, Another Jump-Off Post

An alleged source close to the Atlanta woman that filed a restraining order on basketball player Shaquille O’ Neal has stepped forward to give some inside scoop about the aspiring rapper’s sexual romps with different men in the ATL.

Here’s the scoop via Necole Bitchie:

maryjane1 Another Day, Another Jump Off PostAs her [Alexis Miller a/k/a Mary Jane] previous make up artist and shoulder to cry on I know the facts. I know her personally and I feel very sorry for her because she is borderline Bi-Polar with a young child. Yes, she was Shaq’s jump off for two years, waiting for him to end it with his wife. Shaq has flown her from coast to coast in his Jet on his time for his needs.

Alexis was a Flight Attended turned Rapper (not singer) trying to make it big for over a year now in Atlanta. The sh*t hit the fan when he kept promising her to pay for her breast augmentation (boob job) for over a year now, scheduling the surgery for her but would cancel when he heard rumors that she was stepping out with other Men in Atl. He would dangled what she wanted and then she would break off scheduled hook ups with Shaq to show him she was serious about making Shaq keep his promises, he promised securing her a place to live and her breast surgery.

He only would spend money on clothes, designer bags and her studio time but of course she wanted more. It was easy for her to stand up Shaqs scheduled trips when he sent for her because she was busy being everyone else’s jump off in Atlanta as well.. getting a bad rep sleeping with guys in the Atl industry scene.

I’m standing in the corner like Angel Pantoja Medina over this one!

Sources tell my cyber homie Necole Bitchie that Tasia Mae and Young Dro have called it quits! The American Idol winner turned Broadway actress turned hot mess allegedly had a DJ at Club72 announce that she was single and looking for a new Dealer.

I hope this was a mix-up and there was somebody else name Fantasia in the building. I was just coming to terms with Young jeezy and Keyshia Cole’s split.

I hope you have a wide screen monitor to properly view all the fuckery at Fantasia’s birthday bash this past Saturday. There were women stomping around without shoes on, Tony the Tiger inspired tattoos, post-natal piglets . . . I can’t. I am about to go pray to my poster of dreadlock rasta Black Jesus Florida Evans style as soon as I hit publish on this shit.
