UNCLE LUKE SUES 50 CENT.

50 Cent has been hit with a copyright infringement lawsuit over his hit single “In Da Club,” claiming the lyrics to the song were lifted from an earlier recording by Luther Campbell. Attorney Joseph Weinberger, owner of Lil’ Joe Records, filed the lawsuit in Miami federal court, claiming 50’s famous “Go shorty, it’s your birthday” lines were actually lifted from Campbell’s song “It’s Your Birthday,” which was originally released on Campbell’s 1994 album Still a Freak for Life. Weinberger once represented Campbell and obtained the copyrights to albums by the 2 Live Crew and Luke as a solo artist after Campbell was forced into bankruptcy. (read more)

TRINA’S ‘DESPERATE’ & LOU RAWLS DRAMA

Thursday, January 19, 2006 |

TRINA IS GOING TO APPEAR ON DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES


Rapper Trina is scheduled to guest appear in 4 episodes of “Desperate Housewives.” She will play the bad-ass long lost daughter of Alfre Woodard. I’m sorry but I have to catch this shit. I guess Trina is going to be shaking that ass on Wisteria Lane.

LOU RAWLS’ DRAMA


Damn can the man rest in peace? Nope! His family and wife are enbattled in a bitter dispute over his estate. Lou’s kids claim that his wife, 35 year-old Nina Inman (seen above) was abusing him for years. And get this, Lou caught her ass stealing money from him, & that is why he was trying to get out of the marriage at the time of his death. Louanna Rawls (Lou’s daughter) describes Inman as a psychopath who stole from her father and threatened her family. I guess that’s what you get when you mess with them young tricks. She look crazy as hell anyway.. (read more @ patty jackson’s 411). Oh and just in case you’re wondering, that’s Lou’s adopted son…

SANAA LATHAN DENIES RUMORS IN VIBE MAG..


Sanaa Lathan denies she had an affair with Denzel Washington, her co-star in the 2003 thriller “Out of Time,” in the February issue of Vibe. “(The rumor) got started because the movie had a love scene with Denzel, and people took that and translated it to real life,” the 34-year-old actress tells the magazine, now on newsstands, with non-singing ass Chris Brown on the cover..
“They said I was pregnant with Denzel’s child, and people were calling my mother, saying I’m having his baby. It’s frustrating. People are going to talk no matter what.” We sure are! I personally don’t believe she got pregnant in the process, but I betcha a little “something” happened.

EVEN MORE INFO ON USHER & HIS STYLIST.

I’m sure we all heard about the Usher and Tameka Foster rumor. She’s older, and his stylist, and he just gained weight. Well Sandra Rose.com has even more info for us. According to her:


Yesterday I received a phone call from Tameka Foster, the celebrity stylist that R&B hunk Usher is rumored to be dating..
Mainly, she wanted everyone to know that she was not 39. She didn’t reveal her exact age but she did say she was younger than 35. Tameka also took offense to you bloggers out there referring to her as fat and ugly. She is neither. In fact, Tameka is a very attractive woman. Those paparazzi photos taken of Tameka and Usher vacationing in St. Barts don’t do her any justice. Tameka also informed me that Usher has lost that extra 10 pounds of flab that was so evident in those vacation photos. Usher’s abs are being sculpted by his personal trainer Cliff Boyce as you read this. sandrarose.com


Well she didn’t deny the main part of the rumor, that they are an item.
hmmmmmmmmmmmm

SAY IT AIN’T SO!!

I just read that it’s rumored that Whitney & Bobby are getting a divorce! Say it ain’t so!! According to New York Daily News,

36-year-old Brown - who shares a 12-year-old daughter with the 42-year-old R&B superstar - has been telling friends and acquaintances they’re splitsville.
The weekend before last, during a visit to the Foxwoods Casino in Mashantucket, Conn., Brown was spotted chatting up pretty women backstage while the all-girl group SWV (which stands for Sisters With Voices) performed along with male groups Guy and Blackstreet.

“While flirting with a bunch of women, they asked, ‘What’s up with your wife?’ Bobby said, ‘We ain’t together no more. We’re getting a divorce,’ ” says the spy. (read more)

THIS FRIDAY ON OPRAH…

Jaimee Foxworth, who has recently starred in the critically acclaimed films: Adventures of Peeping Tom No. 28 & My Baby Got Back 29, is going to be a guest on Oprah this friday (1/20). You probably know her better as Judy (the daughter that disappeared) off of Family Matters. Anyway, Oprah is a little late with this one, I mean I already heard about this like 3 years ago.

LOOKS LIKE SHE GOT DROPPED…

Earlier this month it was rumored that Bill Maher & SuperHead were going to get hitched. Now the rumor is that they aren’t even together anymore. Who knows what is really going on..

HBO’s “Real Time with Bill Maher” host, meanwhile, announced that his much-written-about romance with video vixen Karrine Steffans - which, depending on who was writing about it, was very serious - is kaput. “That’s ended, that’s over,” said Maher (read more)
