UPDATE: LOOKS LIKE SEAN ISN’T PLAYING BIGGIE. CLICK HERE TO READ MORE

Sean Kingston is already set to make his first big acting debut playing the late Notorious B.I.G in the upcoming film on the slain rapper:

The singer, who is dominating the charts with summer hit Beautiful Girls, has landed the lead role in the movie, which is being produced by Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs.

Kingston says, “When I first heard about that movie, it was through management. My management told me about it and you know I had auditioned for it and I met with the director and I nailed it and he gave me a shot now at being in the movie.”

Notorious B.I.G.’s mother Voletta Wallace, and his two former managers, Wayne Barrow and Mark Pitts, played a key role in casting and were keen to sign-up an unknown star for the coveted role. SOURCE

Interesting choice, wonder what Biggie’s fans think about it…

EL DEBARGE IS LOCKED UP…

El DeBarge, most known for his 80s fame with the DeBarge family and solo hits was arrested yesterday for domestic violence charges and outstanding warrents:

The singer, born Eldra DeBarge, was initially taken into custody early Sunday accused of domestic violence. The L.A. County District Attorney rejected the charge, but the crooner had a bunch of outstanding warrants – including vandalism, drugs and driving with a suspended license according to authorities.

None of the infractions allow for the posting of bail, which means DeBarge will remain in custody until a hearing is scheduled. READ MORE

Man, I love me some El DeBarge but, this family has been through some stuff. Go to Vibe.com to get a history lesson.

BISHOP WEEKS GETS LOVE FROM HIS CHURCH

We’ve posted updates on Amy Wino’s drugged out relationship, but I wanted to update you guys on the church world’s latest surrounding Juanita Bynum and Bishop Weeks. After allegedly choking and beating down his wife last week, Bishop Weeks turned himself in and was set free with bond. He explained the situation to his church this past Sunday:

Juanita Bynum’s estranged husband is blaming the devil for accusations that he attacked her last week in Atlanta.

Thomas Weeks appeared in front of the congregation at his church on Sunday, expressing appreciation for prayers and support that he and Bynum have received. Weeks said he refused to stop attending church just because “certain things” were going on…

One churchgoer says he’s disappointed about the allegations but says he respects Weeks for “being man enough to show his face. SOURCE

They should at least cast for that role, Sean Kingston is not be enough to make a mass of people come out. If they cast for the role you just might find someone that’s a better fit and a better actor. Come on, now.

It is an excellent choice, first of all he looks like biggie weight issues and all, and last but not least, Sean Kingston is of JAMAICAN parentage, just like biggie, also most of you don’t know that Sean Kingston is Buju Banton’s nephew. Some of you also may not know that Biggie used to visit Jamaica in his youth and was exposed to Dancehall music before rap, thats right his uncle back in JA used to have a sound system, and when Big would go on vacation when he was a little boy in the seventies he was exposed to reggae music and dancehall music first, not rap, rap did not exist yet.
And my final point is this BIGGIES MOM AND FAMILY IS JAMAICAN, SEAN KINGSTON IS OF JAMAICAN BACKGROUND, SO IT MAKES PERFECT SENSE, I AM ALSO OF JAMAICAN PARENTAGE AND EVEN THOUGH I GREW UP HERE, I WAS RAISED ON RICE AND PEAS AND REGGAE MUSIC, SO I IDENTIFY WITH HALF JAKES (JAMAICANS) LIKE SEAN KINGSTON AND BIGGIE, WE DON’T REALLY FEEL FULLY AMERICAN, WE ARE HALF JAMAICANS SO Y SHOULD SOMEONE WHO IS NOT FROM THAT BACKGROUND PORTRAY BIGGIE SMALLS?

Bishop Weeks, I’m sure you are familiar with the way you are to treat your wife, Colossians 3:19, I Corinthians 7:3-5 Ephesians 5:25-33 these are examples of how we are to treat our wives, and to provide an exanple to your parishioneers you should have blamed yourself and removed yourself from all functions of the body of Christ, turn away from your sin, and start anew in repentance, do not bring shame upon the body of Christ, you are not worthy of the office which you hold my brother, do the right thing by your wife, ” Love your wife as the Lord loved the Church, and gave his life for it”

VERY WELL PUT, AS A MAN WHO STUDIES THE WORD I FIND ENCOURAGEMENT TO DIG DEEPER IN THE BIBLE, WHEN I COME ACROSS FOLKS MAKING STATEMENTS LIKE THIS.

I will be suicidal if they let Kingston take the part of the late great Notorious one! Fly704, thank you for the follow up info. I am a BIG fan til I die! I was actually thinking about a rapper by the Guerilla Black. Check em out http://www.ejams.com/guerillablack.htm. This brother not only sounds like BIG in his own right (not copy or biting off his style like Shyne), but he’s got the look, the swagga tha whole package…Maybe Kingston can play a younger biggie..whatevert happened to the little kid in the video : “Sky is the Limit” with 112? That lil kid looked just like big when he was a kid. Can’t tell me about BIG man….his true fans know what time it is, regardless who’s on the casting couch! DIDDY WOULD BE AN IDIOT IF HE DID NOT GIVE THIS PART TO GUERILLA BLACK!

“Sky is the Limit”…I love this joint….one of my all time favorites including the video; Check out the lil kids playing Faith, Diddy and 112…so cute! LU “BIG POPPA”- RIP BIG!

You that preacher need to stop. The devil made me do it? Thats AL he can come up with? Well his followers are a bunch of idiots! After giving this negro all this money, to lead and this happened, he dosen’t even have the honesty and integrity to accept his mistakes. How can your leader lead, if he can’t even control his actions?? Ms. Katrina? What you said was priceless….

82.

That's Right

Thursday, August 30, 2007 /

You know that’s a shame for people to be saying that he said the devil made him do it but when you read what he said in church, NOW WHERE IS IT QUOTED HE SAID THAT!!!! They have it in a headline but nowhere again do you see it. I was there and he didn’t say no such thing. All he said was that the latter shall be greater than the former (Meaning his side of the story). He also told the church to look to NO man but look only to God and that he knows the media won’t mention he said that.

No one but those there know what happened that night in the parking lot. Just pray for them and wait to hear what he has to say… OFFICIALLY!

“One churchgoer says he’s disappointed about the allegations but says he respects Weeks for “being man enough to show his face.”

Yeah, after he was on the lamb for two days, I guess he had to get his story straight. Give me a break. If he was such a man he wouldn’t have ran for two days. PLEEEEESE! His church members need to get their heads out of their asses. The last time I checked a real man don’t beat on women.

WHO THE HELL APPLAUDS SOMEONE ACCUSED OF BEATING AND CHOKING HIS WIFE OR EX WIFE?????? this is why people dont go to church. All its about is money money money/coming into your season/how to get a blessing. Not about changing your life at all. Not the message Jesus taught at all.

Sean Kingston playing Biggie…um next.

92.

That's Right

#85, How am I brainwashed for saying that he didn’t say the devil made him do it? I’m not taking nobody’s side or excusing him from what happened but the media shouldn’t make up stuff just because he showed up to church. If the members of his church want to stay there, let them. As stupid as they may be, that’s their decision to make.

Exactly, brainwashed. Next please

LOL @ These Hoes

Thursday, August 30, 2007 /

@ 82… You’re right. It was’t anywhere in the story where he said the devil made him do it. I guess they just put that headline there to catch more attention.

This is from the ajc.com
Weeks took the pulpit two days after his surrender to authorities in connection with the alleged attack on Bynum. His remarks included appreciation for the prayers and support that he said have come in for him and his wife and thanks to those in attendance in spite of the controversy.

Weeks sparked thunderous applause and cheers when he asked members to tell those seated next to them: “We’ve got certain things going on right now, but I refuse to stop coming to the house God built.”

Weeks, wearing a dark suit and his customary bow tie, blamed the devil for the accusation that has him facing two felony charges. He didn’t, however, offer any specifics before introducing a guest minister who preached in his stead, then exiting the room.

^^Where did it mention anything about the devil? Sometimes it’s best to let these hoes argue with themselves when you know what you’re talking about.

I’m a biggie fan.. and I don’t even know what to say.. I guess I will just have to wait and see how he plays the role… this is a real career maker or breaker for him.. no in between

@ # 72 I agree

Seems like Guerilla Black would be the best and first choice to play Biggie but hey, whatever.

About Weeks-Bynum, some people have been questioning why she didn’t let the cops take pictures of her instead of waiting until she got home with her family and having them send the pictures in to the news. Also if you peep their MySpace, not one person has left any well wishes on her page but the bishop’s page is flooded. Is it something I’m not getting? She’s the victim, right? Weird stuff. Well, I can’t wait to hear his side.

# 94, are you kidding me? It’s right there. Why don’t you two church hoes go and suck his dick in the church’s pew. Get on line with the rest of the undercover hoes at that church. Like I said, brainwashed people hear what they want to hear and interpret what they want. So bitch please. I don’t see any one of you two hoes commenting on his two day run, if you are so righteous why run, sit down church hoes. You two are going to be ignored from this post on. It’s like debating with Charlse Manson’s followers, just no use. The damn witness had to pull his ass off of her, what else do you need. Dicksuckers!

HORRIBLE

I know you go to church and your fake holy ass mouth is just as dirty didn’t know church people can use the word hoe. I see that you are still avoiding the fact that he was in hiding for two days and the witness statement of him beating her ass, so bitch please. You are shut down!

THERE IS NO NEED

Thursday, August 30, 2007 /

Are we really so quick to criticize a whole group of people based on what a few individuals do?

What those church members are do regarding this Weeks character is trying to be Christ-like and forgive that man for what he has done. However, trust and believe that most of them do not agree with his behavior and many are probably headed out the door because they do not want to associate themselves with him. So do not take that one quote and brand the whole church as accepting his presence and his behavior.

Everyone has been wronged, offended, and sinned against at some point in life. And what most Christians do is TRY to forgive others because God also has forgiven them. And that’s what we all should take into account. Church folks don’t can about the type of sin…sin is sin to them. All they do is try to forgive a person and help he/she find a solution. But again, this has absolutely nothing to do with forgetting. And please believe that many are taking notes and writing that man off in that church. Because being violent is not the answer in any situation.

Please don’t get it twisted…I do not agree with this Weeks behavior, actions or statements about the devil but what I do know is that God will handle this…he will reap what he sow. But in the meantime, we all need to stop criticizing those people because we don’t know exactly how they feel or how they may handle this.

Though I do agree with many comments about refusing to all this type of behavior go on in the church and hold people accountable. I suggest the church force him into anger management, therapy or counseling for two years. If he does not comply, he has to give his full resignation as the Bishop and remove all titles and duties in the church.

I’m amazed at how most of the comments put all the blame for this mess on Weeks. Hitting her exposed his weakness but any good smart wife knows what buttons not to push. There in lies the problem from my observation Juanita wasn’t much of a wife, probably a great prophetess with TV shows, music deals and crowds of people telling her how great she is but not a good wife to the weak Bishop.

Chico is a crackhead, El is a crackhead, that whole fam is a burning wreck. Juanita’s husband need to stop hiding behind the devil for his actions and just say he is crazier than a soup sandwich.

#8 said: And of course Pastor “Choke-a-Bitch” Weeks go blame it on the devil…I saw that coming when I first heard about the story….Can’t nobody just be crazy these days, they always wanna blame the demons….Negro you just have some repressed issues and she pushed some buttons and you went Ike Turner 1968 on her ass… You know even the Devil was like “Damn, what I do now????”

Yes honey you are absolutely right! He has some nerve even commenting. He should go to the nearest psychiatric center, because his crazy ass needs help and he needs to get it together. We all have choices in life and he decided to show America how he treats his “Christian” family. Fool and I can’t believe how many people are supporting him, if anything they should suggest he get help! Boy I see the “Jim Jones” movement is still alive and well!

I’m also not really feeling Sean Kingston as Biggie. I’m sure they could have found sombody better and more hungry for the role.

Sean Kingston is ugly enough to play Biggie, that’s why I think his song is useless
because I think he will be having a problem with a beautiful girl wanting to get with him, he gives off a down low vibe and he is not attractive. What happened to Debarge, I used to be so crazy about the men in that group. They have had such bad luck. James Debarge when he went to jail, he got aids he was so pretty for a man that the men thought he was a girl, he died from aids. Poor Chico, El, and the other Debarges. Chico got out and tried to change his life, but being so good looking and going to jail is not good for any man, hell being ugly and going to jail ain’t good, if you don’t know how to fight a man could lose his manhood and get hiv. I just hope El can fight, hell he beat his wife. I personally don’t like men who fight women. I don’t wish anything bad on him, I just hope he gets help and I hope no man gets at him. Fight El fight to keep your manhood, we know what happens in jail to men who can’t fight.
