TV SHOWS PT. 2: JAY-Z IS A STORYTELLER / “MARTIN” SEASON 3 / MARY & TYSON ON TOPMODEL / CHRISTINA LOVES SUPERMAN
Thursday, October 25, 2007

Jay-Z finished taping a special episode of VH1’s Storytellers titled Jay-Z: Life of an American Gangster. The nearly two hour concert, filmed at Steiner Studios in Brooklyn, will include Jigga performing tracks from his new album American Gangster and giving the audience a explanation of the inspiration behind the songs.
Word is that wifey Beyonce was backstage dancing and rhyming along backstage for support. Gotta love that. Be sure to check out the special episode of Storytellers on VH1 November 8th at 9p.m ET/PT.
The third episode of the hit comedy “Martin” is coming. This has to be one of my favorite seasons - it includes some of the most classic episodes like Martin joining that crazy cult, Martin spying on Tommy to see if he got a job, and RENT EM SPOONS!
Check out a clip of one of the third season episodes above and make sure you cop it when it releases November 6th.
America’s Next Top Model steps up their game with guest appearances from Tyson Beckford and Mary J. Blige last night. Tyson was there giving the contestants a challenge and Mary was there to direct the winner of the challenge in a Carol’s Daughter photoshoot. That’s right, creative direction by Miss Mary…
Watch the clip of all the girls going nutty over Tyson. If you watched the episode yesterday, how do you feel about Ebony’s exit?

“Smallville” gets another pretty girl guest starring this week. Christina Milian puts on her acting hat, playing an actress (isn’t it ironic) that is saved by Clark Kent. You can check out her dame in despair act tonight on the CW, or watch this director’s cut on youtube.

Someone needs to explain the definition of the word “RETIRED” to Jay Z
Why do people go through the trouble of saying that they “are retired”
only
to keeping coming back for more ???
It was annoying with Michael Jordan,
now it’s even more annoying with Jay Z.

I saw the ANTM show last night, and I honestly liked it, especially with the guest appearances. It was a shock at the end. First time ANTM history. I liked that the girl kept it real when she wanted to go home instead of wasting anymore time. (I can’t remember her name).
I’m happy the Christina is still working. I think that she should focus more on acting instead of singing. She is such a pretty girl.

What n da hell was Tyson thinkin when he tatted one of his arms black, I was saying oh hell no last night. But other than that he’s good. Mary didnt do to much, just a cameo. But my girl Saliesha is coming around like I knew she would. And the bi polar white girl is shinning and makes me wonder why.
Jay-Z new album is called American Gangster, so is Denzels new movie and that tv show on Bet. Who stole it from who?

Jay could have named that cd anything….i mean okay, we get it, it’s the soundtrack to american gangster…i think he’s trying to ride that movies coat tail cause he know people sick of him, but he knows every black person is going to see that movie, thus naming the cd american gangster as well…..it could be crap, but once you’ve paid your money for it, i doubt if he cares, you just got tricked….
Of course, he’ll always have his loyal fans who will swear if he didn’t make it to the bathroom on time, and shit fell outta his pants, they would swear that shit on the ground is a masterpiece….stans are special people. lol Sorry for being so graphic…lol, but that’s how crazy stan logic is to me.

Tyra irritated me with the comment she made to Ebony when she decided to leave…I’m honestly starting to not like Tyra…I know my feelings don’t effect her either way but i used to like her….Now, with her attitude/reaction to things on her talk show and ANTM, it’s a turn off…I understand she gets a little defensive when the girls don’t take modeling seriously bc it’s her passion. However, her reaction on both of her shows is very defensive if she doesn’t agree with her guests/contestants….
Tyson was looking good on the show…I was laughing at the girls reaction to him…I would probably act the same way if he just showed up on my door step out of the blue…I was a little giggly when he was saying “moist and juicy”…I was like, “Ooooookkkkk”…Wow…

Ughh. Jay Z is sooo annoying now. He is one of the most overrated and greedy rappers of all time.
I am thirsty for REAL music and talented artists who are more interested in giving us shyt with substance, rather than collecting our cash to retire 10 times and splurge around the globe.

ANTM is kinda boring a predictable like you kinda know that the girl who sufferend from some form of autism will probably win.However I was kind of suprised that Ebony left like that but at least she realized that she didnt want it before it was too late and all of these other models who really wanted it left.

JayZ is the best in the business!!
C.M. is beatiful - i wish her the best
Martin - one of the funniest TV shows ever - right up there with I Love Lucy
ANTM - i watched it only because i heard about the guests - it was a good show - i was pleasantly surprised. Glad Ebony kept it real, but did they keep the other girl (the one they were sending home)?

Jay Z recently said in an interview he should have never said he was retiring. damn he said that one time in 2004 at that and yall are still complaining. If u want him to go away dont respond to news about him, dont buy his album. Why keep making a big deal out of something himself said was a mistake and obviously not doing because this is second album since.
and to #15 have u been living under a rock Jay Z album is like a soundtrack to the movie American Gangster. he said he was inspired by the movie to record the album.
Back to post def will be watching the special and will be going to his concert in the Chi on Nov 7th

For some reason I love Jay’s smile. He ain’t good looking, but he’s attractive in an ugly kinda way.

LOVE Martin…Will be gettin’ that for the collection.
Mary was beautiful as usual last night on ANTM.
Tyson looked tasty, but had a bit of a “feminine” demeanor going on
Ebony was right to speak up instead of staying. Ambreal got her second chance..
That white girl is NOT bi-polar, she has ASPERGERS disease which is like a from of autism.
Christina is pretty. At least she has that going on for her.

Well, im from chicago… and I went to the same highschool as Ebony… when she was in school she act as if she was on ANTM..having heels, where the top name clothes, and stomping thorough the hallway as if it was a catwalk…
Everyone put her on a pedstal.. teachers, students, and even security guards
So I guess when got on ANTM, she didnt feel that same pedstal anymore, and she was on the same level as everyone else..
I still cant believe she left, back in high school u just knew she going to be on ANTM..oh well.. I guess people like their egos to be stroked

I watched ANTM last night,and I have to say…if Ebony felt like it wasn’t in her to be in the competition than she made the best decision for EBONY-no one else can decide what your true passion is. I tripping off the fact she was so ‘hard” coming into the competition-but she saw people wasn’t on going to be on that “ish”,she switched up quick and changed that attitude! She’s a pretty girl,but she didn’t really have that FIRE!
I wish her luck…she still has a shot IMO-but my favorites are Heather and Ambreal but I think Heather going to win. Her photos have been real good and the Carol’s Daughter photo shoot looked like it went well,the pictures seem like they are going to be stunning.
I saw the Martin episode last night on TVOne when Martin and Gina was trying to find out where Tommy worked…I almost pissed myself…when Martin said You gotta use your cat eye-Gina,you gotta use ya cat eye! and when they were staking out in the alley and “Hustle man” (Tracey Morgan) was trying to get his hustle on-that “ish” was hilarious! The lady that was up in the strip club the (drunk lady)-OMG every time I have seen that part- I get weak! “what you doin”? “You ain’t doing nothing,uh,uh?”

LMAO @22 hilarious!……
And i cosign #23 all the way…..i think that’s a true analysis, and that’s why he can’t retire….”greed”, but he might call it “passion”. I use to love Jay….wayyy back in the day. And i have to think that jay knew he was falling off and couldn’t keep coming up with good music on the level he use to be on….cause why else decide to retire at his age…i mean cause if you still have it, why retire….but i think after retirement he found it hard to deal with beyonce gettin all that shine by herself, and he was missing the praise….just hypothesizing. I hope he can get it together, or sit his ass down for real before he get put out.

Sheena & Meka, calm down.
People have a right to their opinion.
Jay Z was the one who said he was retired !
We didn’t make him say it.
He’s a grown man..He knows what he said.
Maybe he said it because he sensed that people were getting tired of him, his lyrics were weak, and he was no longer relevant…
Your right, he NEVER should have said it, cause he’s annoying people now by constanly releasing new product
* Not to mention that he hasn’t had a hit record in YEARS.

In Ebony’s defense I think she really did the right thing. She left with a bang and I doubt she had an opportunity to win anyways. Not because she’s not beautiful but just because a girl is beautiful doesnt make her a model. Once she fell in the bottom 2 for the eliminations she’s considered an underdog. The other girl who was voted off and got to stay is really really depressing to me. I would have never wanted pitty points or a free pass as Tyra called it. She has slim to no chance at winning and will be voted off again.

As a previous post stated…I’ve lost the fire for ANTM. My girls and I would do an annual finale party and this year, I’m done.
I think Ebony stood up for her feelings and beliefs that modeling isn’t for her. Maybe Tyra is right - she doesn’t like to be told what to do. So be it…all the same, modeling is not for her. She may better off working for herself behind the scenes as a make-up artist, stylist or PR person. She can still use her looks to her advantage minus the B.S.!

People are right abut Tyra, Just becuz the girl decided modeling isn’t for her I saw TYra cop an attitutude. She really wanted to go off on her- like she did TiffanySome people can’t take all that criticism- I also think it is tacky for them to play Ebony audition tape at the end- just so you can prove a point-and have people on your side- it didn’t work for me not everyone has your drive- some people are fickle- what are you gonna do sue her for changing her mind
Anyway tyra been working my nerves ever since the season when daniel won- Trying to make her close her gap and get mad at her for having an accent
I was Kim Kardashian show - I know i am embarrassed- but one her sister said that tyra is very judgemental- which i beginning to see is true

@ #15 Ninagirl: The girl’s name is Heather; she’s not Bi-Polar. She has Asperger’s Disorder which is a milder variant of Autistim Spectrum Disorder. Asperger’s Disorder is when people have normal intelligence and language development, but also exhibit autistic-like behaviors and marked deficiencies in social and communication skills. All of Heather’s pictures are amazing and with make-up she is beautiful; without makeup she can look “hunting” due to the severe dark circles around her eyes. All-in-all Heather could very well be “AMERICA”S NEXT TOP MODEL”.
As for Ebony (the girl that volunteered herself to leave the competion), she pissed me off. All that I could think about were the thousands of girls that wanted to be in the competion that could have taken her place!!!

I watched the show last night, and is it me or was Tyson woofing like crazy up under that hat, I mean he’s sexy anyway, but what was up with that head?!!
I was glad Ebony left cuz she was so damn dry and dumb. I can’t blame Tyra for reacting the way she did, I mean the shows been on for years now, yu know what the deal is before you even get there, so, if you can’t take being criticized or whatever why even bother? Somebody who really wnats to model could have had her spot, I’d be pissed too, wasting money and time for nothing….
I was surprised at Heather, she’s really growing on me and she’s fierce in a wierd sort of way, her Carol’s Daughter picture came out really pretty, you can see it on their website….
I’m kind of over Jigga but I probably will watch the show just to see what he’s talking about…

Jay Z says that he is Embarrassed
Thursday, October 25, 2007 /
Jay-Z’s Early Retirement Plans an Embarrassment
Rap mogul Jay-Z is embarrassed by his announcement to retire from the music industry.
The hip-hop star, 36, celebrated his “retirement” with a gig at Madison Square Gardens in New York City four years ago.
The concert later became the centerpiece of the documentary film “Fade to Black” — and Jay cannot bear to watch it.
He tells MTV, “I want to never say that again … people looking at me like, ‘Please shut up.’ I was looking at ‘Fade to Black’ the other day. I was embarrassed. … I’m not playing with you. I had to turn it off. I was cringing.”
His new CD, “American Gangster,” is released later this year. It will be his second album release since his retirement.

Just like Micheal Jordan, Deion Sanders, Sugar Ray, Roy Jones, Jr., Holyfield, Emmitt Smith — when you have a profession, career that is filled with adulation and you stop hearing the cheers, you want it back, and because you have been at the top of your game, you still believe you are the best.
When Jay-Z made the announcement, he probably thought he was going to stop rapping and just run Def Jam and his businesses, but when you are an artist at heart, you get tired of that pretty quick.
His only problem was making the announcement in the first place - he should have just taken a break and done a few mixtapes or features.
Very rarely can people just leave at the top of their game and be satisfied -

The Top Model girls went crazy but they never really get to see guys so that explains a lot but it did seem a bit over the top. Ebony needed to take her ass home. She didn’t want it. Ambreal did. I was glad to see her go. I love the bald headed girl now that she has adjusted. I use to hate her cause she started shit with everybody all the time.

@15, no one has stolen the title. This is an example of a marketing integration, cooperation between the studio, the record label and tv networks. They all benefit but the major goal is for the movie to open big. They figure if they surround you with the title everywhere you get entertainment (tv shoes you like, musical artists you like, retail stores you like, fast food joints, etc.) you’ll go see their stupid movie. This deal was made at least a year ago because that’s how far in advance studios make their tv ad commitments.

Ebony leaving the show would probably help her in her career endeavors. Since, ANTM is scripted anyways, Ebony was probably given the chance to show off her acting chops. Think about it, Naomi was asked by Byron Allen , about modeling competitions, and she said that it was unnecessary because the modeling agenices have 2 days out the week, where they have free open casting, where girls can just go there, and they will tell them upfront whether or not, they are going to be hired or not. So, whenever Tyra goes off on these little tantrums, it’s all for show, because the girl is already signed probably, just my opinion. That’s why I don’t care to watch this show.

Ebony is a young girl that was placed in a compromising situation. Tyra’s reaction to Ebony, was callus and heartless.

I can’t wait for Martin Season 3!
I saw Ebony’s exit and I was so sad to see her go because I knew from day 1 that she had great potential and could definitely last long in the competiton but like others have said, it was very noble of her to say it now that she didn’t want to be there other than wait until she’s top 4 and say that. I also agree with the people who said that they didn’t like Tyra’s attitude about it. She started out being support and then ended it kinda snooty like, I can’t describe it. But I am glad that Ambreal got a 2nd chance because she is so beautiful and when both of them were in the bottom 2, I didn’t know who to choose.
My favorites are Saleisha and Heather, the 2 of them are FANTASTIC and I was so happy that Saleisha was called first and that Heather won that special photo shoot, they both deserved it!!

He didn’t hear about the movie, they bought the movie to him. People know what you are talking about when posting. Denzel originally was trying to get Jay to do the official soundtrack in the first place. Ironically Jay will still get paid of of the original soundtrack, it will be distributed through DEFJAM, plus the profits from his own cd. he is in a win win situation, Jay-Z is about his money. Universal knows Jay-Z name alone will bring out more to see the movie. He is teaching Beyonce along the way, Beyonce and Jay-z are the owners of the new 40/40 Club being built in Las Vegas. Keep on sleeping on these two if you want, TI should have dedicated this song to them, they always have big things poppin!

I agree with Ray , JayZ is not going to bring a whole lot of more people to see this movie. I frequent many Oscar and movie boards and people have been dying to see this movie for a LONG time. Most of the people on these boards are filmheads like me and don’t listen to hip hop music ( even though I listen to hip hop music). The only thing that I can see him doing is bringing a few more Urban people to see the movie and that’s about it. People would see this movie Regardless of Jay_Z for four reasons. Even the average filmgoer doesn’t care if Jay-Z is a part of it or not, that actually was a complaint about rappers ( RZA COMMON & TI) ruining the movie. People even said it was going to “suck” because they were involved. BTW the movie is based on an article about Frank Lucas ( years ago) in the NY TImes.
1. Denzel Washington & Russell Crowe ( they bring in the box-office)
2. Oscars-Many Oscar heads are dying to see if this will be a contender the reviews so far are decent, although critics say it is good , but not great.
3.The subject matter-Crime Dramas tend to popular with movie goers look at the Departed.
4. Ridley Scott-This is the man who directed Bladerunner NUFF SAID.
I’m not saying that Jay-Z is not important enough, but the reasons MOST people want to see this film have absolutely nothing to do with him.
Anyway I know some people are dissappointed already because they say it is not violent enough. So if you haven’t seen it don’t go in expecting an action flick.
This movie has been in the works for 5 years Denzel got the script right after he did Training day it was going to be
Director-Fuqua( Director of Training Day)
Frank-Denzel
Roberts-Benicio del Toro
Something happened and they got a different Director and they got Don Cheadle to do it, but something happened again and they went to Ridely Scott and the rest is History.

I know atleast 20 heads that will go out and cop his cd and just imagine how many of those fan know 20 more people that will do the same. If I had to listen to all this Bama ass dance rap I would just rather hip hop was dead! hey i know you youngins need something to listen to as well so i believe their is room for everybody’s type of rap.

There are some more. I was shocked, but glad that information was given.
I never could understand how Jay thought he was so hot. Now after seeing that Youtube clip tonight I have lost what little respect I had for Jay-z. He steals other people songs. No wonder him and Beyonce hit it off. Like attracts like!
