‘ROUND THE WAY: DA BRAT COMPLETES PRISON SENTENCE / STEVE HARVEY SENDS EX-WIFE A VALENTINE GIFT? / X-TINA AGUILERA SPENDS TIME IN THE SLAMMER?

After serving 3 years in prison for hitting a cocktail waitress over the head with a rum bottle, rapper Shawntae “Da Brat” Harris is finally free. The 36 year-old Joliet, IL-native was welcomed back by her friend, producer Jermaine Dupri in a tweet yesterday. Although she has completed her sentence, the So So Def rapper was temporarily released from prison back in May 2010 and worked as a full-time window maker.

Rumor has it, the rapper is currently ‘on house arrest and is required to notify her parole officer whenever she has to leave her home for doctor’s appointments or emergencies.’ …Either way, welcome back to the Brat-Tat-Tat!

‘ROUND THE WAY: MARY HARVEY SETS US STRAIGHT ONE LAST TIME – WHO DO YOU BELIEVE?

Mary Harvey is at it again. The former wife of Steve Harvey stopped by 102.3 FM last week and did one last interview in response to her former husband, Steve Harvey. Since Mary’s last interview, Steve has since then visited ABC’s The View and has made a national attempt to clear up his name, thus dragging Mary’s name in the dirt. Well Mary Shackelford refuses to keep quiet…yet again. In an exclusive interview with the DC radio station, Mary set the record straight and continues to claim that she is telling the truth. We could’ve sworn there was some kind of gag order preventing her from speaking on the matter again…Either way, she decided to break it down and make her truth clear one last time:

On the $40,000 monthly payments:
He was ordered to pay me $40,000 but I only got it 10 months. So we’re talking about $400,000 that he paid out to me for a 10-month period. So I only got 10 months of those payments. So what we’re back to again is Mary never got a settlement. Like I said, when you look at a document and someone signed off on that document, that’s one thing. A lot of people of been awarded a lot of things but whether they got those things is another issue.

On the three homes she supposedly received:
The first home was a $200,000 home that Steve and I purchased for our housekeeping staff….Eventually, Steve asked them to go to Atlanta with him which left that house sitting there. The personal assistant she is in that house right now. When I hired her she told me she was homeless. The second house he is talking about is a house that he and I bought, that he and I and the boys shared. That house I put on the market because after the divorce I did not want to live in that house. The third home is that we are really talking about was our $5 million mansion. That was the home we were all living in when the divorce happened. Now, when I let the personal assistant have and I mean have that house, and I sold the second house, thinking I would have my mansion to stay in but he waited right until those two homes were gone and I did get awarded that home my separate sole property, it wasn’t two weeks later he and his attorney went back into the courtroom and to say I was causing him a financial hardship. He was ordered to pay that mortgage until the house was paid off or if I sell the house that would be income for me which I really counted on. So when he went back to the court and they actually made me put my house on the market I had to get out of it just so he could satisfy the mortgage. I didn’t get any proceeds from that house. So I said all of that to say anything can be put into a document to say this is what she got but did she get it?

According to TMZ.com, court documents have surfaced in regards to the Steve Harvey and Mary Shackelford divorce/infidelity ordeal. Yesterday, a Texas court issued a temporary gag order and injunction, barring Mary from speaking about Steve in the media, including other digital media sites like Facebook, MySpace and Twitter.

Based on the documents Harvey provided to refute Shakelford’s claim, the court found Mary as not truthful in her published Youtube videos about Harvey turning their son against her, leaving her homeless and penniless:

The Court finds Movant BRODERICK S. HARVEY’S relief is granted. Further, the Court finds that:

1. Respondent MARY LEE HARVEY was not homeless or evicted from her home and was awarded three (3) homes in the property settlement;

‘ROUND THE WAY: *UPDATE* STEVE HARVEY’S EX-WIFE TAKES HER STORY TO HLN? / FORMER ASSISANT SPEAKS UP!

This story continues to get even more messy as the days go by. Mary Shackelford also known as Steve Harvey’s ex-wife, has taken her story to the next level – national television. Shackelford, now Harvey’s second wife, appeared on Headline News and spoke with the host Jane Velez-Mitchell about what prompted her to reveal her story via public videos on YouTube after 12 years of remaining silent:

“For so many years, I have just really dealt with so much bullying from Steve, from his team, from his camp. I just really personally cannot live my life under the umbrella of fear. I have been in fear for so long because I’ve been bullied in the court of Texas. I just choose not to be bullied any more because it’s just too emotionally devastating for me. It’s like walking around in my life and I’m not alive in my life. Steve mentioned a little while ago that our son was crying and I’m pretty sure Wynton has been crying. But Wynton has been crying since 2005 when all of this happened. As far as the children, Steve and Marjorie should’ve thought about our children when they decided to take on this selfish act that they decided to follow.”

Check this out though. Shackelford’s former personal assistant, Jocelin called the Ricky Smiley Show and… Continue
