Racism and Cupcakes?

This controversial Duncan Hines commercial has been getting pulled after multiple complaints that the advertisement is blatantly racist.
It probably is, but it seems more ignorant and insensitive to me than anything. I don't really think there was a conspiracy to hold people down through use of cupcakes. What do you think?

Hook-Ups, Break-Ups and Make-Ups.

I know this will make some ladies very happy...Everyone's current favorite hotinadirtykindaway guy, Travis McCoy, is back on the market as he and girlfriend Katy Perry have called it quits.
You guys should be nice! Sure, neck tattoos are all kinds of hot. But you can't hate on someones relationship for that...jeez...
Travis has since been blogging his bitterness into cyberspace. Excerpts from his posts:

We fight every night, now that’s not kosher
I reminisce with bliss of when we was closer
And wake up to be greeted by an argument again
You act like you’re ten
So immature, I try to concentrate on a cure
And keep lookin’ at the front door
Thinkin’ if I were to evacuate
You’d probably be straighter than straight
And wouldn’t have so much hate
‘Cause you don’t know the pain I feel when I see you smilin’
And when I roll up you start wilin’
So I front like everything’s hunky-dory
But it’s a whole different story
You don’t like the fact that I’m me
I don’t put on a show
When it comes time for you to have company
And your friends don’t understand your choice of man
They speak proper while my speech is from a gargabe can
But regardless, you shouldn’t have to be so raw
I’m lookin’ at the front door


And when you’re with your friends, I glide to the side
Until the spotlight is mine and never sabotage a good time
But when they’re not around, the fights commence
I’m the one you’re against and it doesn’t make sense
‘Cause I’m the one that you claim to love for life
But all I get is gray hairs and strife
And I can play some ole stuck-up rapper role
And get foul every time you lose control
But that’s not my order of operations
So I should win an award for lots of patience
‘Cause that’s all a fella can have
With a girl who’s shootin’ up his world like Shaft
And I don’t think that I can take it anymore
I’m lookin’ at the front door

My friends always tell me how I’m lucky to possess
The best looking girl in the whole U.S.
But every time you scream, you blow your finesse
Tryin’ to dis the Profess-
Or twenty-four hours of acting sore
Sometimes I wish you’d come down with lockjaw
So I don’t have to take in the breakin’
You treat me like a burnt piece of bacon
It seems like just two years
Back when we were bonded and not pierced
But now I keep itchin’ to jet
Sitting’ in the chair just to stare, set to sprint
Yo, sweetheart, you better take a hint
I say it now like I said it before
I’m lookin’ at the front door

My Laptop is my new bitch. LOYAL. LISTENS. and NEVER LET’S ME DOWN.

awwwww....Anyway.





My new favorite alleged couple is Drew Barrymore and Jason Segal.
I like Jason Segal! What reason is there not to date him? He's tall, funny, and he's done full frontal nudity in "Forgetting Sarah Marshall", so at least you already know what he's working with.

This Minute In Trash T.V.

Although I am not a reality show addict, I freely admit that I do indulge in a few trashy shows, and the more Springer-esque the better. I don't have many vices, so I need some "Oh no that bitch didn't!" every now and again.






Last night I saw the Rock Of Love Charm School reunion. I've never actually watched Rock Of Love with Bret Michaels, but I started following Charm School because I think Megan is hilarious. Not in a laughing at her way either, I'm totally laughing with her. I actually like her, even though her shoes in the above picture are heinous and an abomination. I think I may be the only person on earth who does like her though, and last night she talked shit about Ozzy which led to Sharon Osbourne giving her a mini beatdown.

Mind you, Megan had been eliminated from the show for "fighting", and Sharon's last words as Megan was leaving were "Violence is one thing I just will not tolerate" Hypocrisy anyone?

Now why is Sharon Osborne teaching charm anyway? Who told her she was a classy lady? Isn't she crass and nasty? Weren't her family's antics the basis of a popular reality show for several seasons?
What Megan said wasn't nice, but Sharon started it! Telling a woman she should be spayed like a dog is fucking rude! Megan took the beating, but you know what? I might let Sharon Osbourne whup my ass too. Following the incident Megan went to the hospital, and then filed a police report with the LAPD. I hope Megan sues her, and wins.


Sharon Vs. Megan. Skip to around the 6:00 mark to get to the good stuff.

Rock Of Love Bus has also just started. I didn't watch it, and I don't plan to, but I saw this clip on DLISTED. Apparently your friend wrote a song for Bret...on the back of some kind of guide to all STD's...Why don't you tell her something about herself?

Nikki's Intro on Rock of Love Bus
by Shesgottahaveit

Oh! Well That Explains Everything....

When Charles Barkley was busted in Arizona early this morning for DUI, he told cops he ran a stop sign because he was in a hurry to get some oral sex.

According to the officer who wrote the report, "He told me that he ran the stop sign because he was in a hurry to pick up the girl I saw get in the passenger seat."

The officer continues: "He asked me to admit that she was 'hot.' He asked me, 'You want the truth?' When I told him I did he said, 'I was gonna drive around the corner and get a b**w job. He then explained that she had given him a 'b**w job' one week earlier and said it was the best one he had ever had in his life."

The report says when Barkley was taken to the station, he told one of the employees, "I'll tattoo my name on your ass" if he helped "get him out of the DUI." According to the report, "He laughed and then quickly corrected himself and said, 'I'll tattoo your name on my ass' and then laughed again."

The report also says officers "found a handgun in the vehicle" which was immediately impounded. The report doesn't say if the handgun was legal or not, and the only thing that we know for sure was loaded...
-TMZ

You know when you just look at someones face and it turns your stomach? Charles Barkley looks like the biggest gaping asshole that ever breathed air. Ugh. He is so gross to me.

They're Getting Tough On Sports Stars, Huh?

Granted, I know NOTHING about hockey, and I can't even remember the last time I saw Elisha Cuthbert in a movie...Who? Yeah, I know. But this video gave me a chuckle.

OK, so some hockey player named Sean Avery, apparently used to date Elisha Cuthbert. Check it.


So for reasons I don't know or care about, it didn't work out and Cuthbert went on to date some other hockey player. Lets call him hockey dude 2.
Sean Avery's team was about to play hockey dude 2's team, and at the pre-game press conference Avery referred to Elisha as his "sloppy seconds". This comment has gotten him suspended indefinitely. Harsh!

But I love the video of him actually saying it, cause he looks so seriously confused. I smell an Oscar!
Awww, bitter much, Sean?

Keri Hilson - "Turnin' Me On" Featuring Lil Wayne

OK. I'm only posting this because I've been trying to give this young lady a chance, and I don't even really know why. I feel I've been so beat about the head with how good she's supposed to be...her voice, her songwriting, her dancing...but every time I look at her, I feel like I'm watching a piece of dry toast doing a shimmy. Like a stale bowl of shredded wheat or something. Beautiful girl, just boring as shit.
I wish her as much success as anyone else, but call me when she does something interesting. Ciara's album has been pushed back, and she's already made a name for herself. It's cold out here, come correct!

Rihanna - Rehab Featuring Justin Timberlake

I don't know much about Rihanna's music, so I was under the mistaken impression that this was a duet with Justin Timberlake. In fact it seems the point of him being here is that he is one of the writers of the song, and I guess someone thought he would make a good music video ho.
They actually do look good together, I could believe it, I guess. I do not like Justin's expertly manicured "scruffy" beard, or that silly trail of hipster stars on Rihanna's neck/upper back. Now that looks like a disease! I think it reminds me of Alien Nation.

People's 10 Best Dressed Stars Of 2008

People Magazine has unveiled their list of the 10 best dressed celebs of this past year. Here they are, in no particular order. Agree, or disagree?



1. Charlize Theron

2. Eva Mendes

3. Michelle Obama

4. Sarah Jessica Parker

5. Heidi Klum

6. Anne Hathaway

7. Fergie

8. Gwyneth Paltrow

9. Rihanna

10. Kate Hudson



I can ride with Heidi, Gwyneth, Anne, and SJP for the most part, and Michelle Obama is a refreshing breath of fashionable air for a first lady. But the other half of the list get a big fat N.O.
What do you think?

Jennifer Aniston Thinks Angelina Jolie Is "Uncool".

On being bothered that Angelina recounted a detailed timeline of how she fell in love with Brad Pitt on the set of Mr. & Mrs. Smith: "There was stuff printed there that was definitely from a time when I was unaware that it was happening. I felt those details were a little inappropriate to discuss. That stuff about how she couldn't wait to get to work every day? That was really uncool.

On if she ever speaks to Brad: "[We've exchanged] a few very kind hellos ... and congratulations on your babies... [We] had an amicable split ... The marriage didn't work out."

More from People:

"The marriage didn't work out... Pretty soon after we separated, we got on the phone and we had a long, long conversation with each other and said a lot of things, and ever since we've been unbelievably warm and respectful of each other."

Aniston, who says she's been "unbelievably lucky in love," is also practical about the subject. "Whoever said everything has to be forever," she says. "That's setting your hopes too high. It's too much pressure. And I think if you put that pressure on yourself ... that's unattainable."


On her romance with John Mayer: "People need to mind their own business! Did you ever think Claudia Schiffer and David Copperfield made sense? Love just shows up....

"It's funny when you hit a place in a relationship and you both realize [that] we maybe need to do something else, but you still really, really love each other. It's painful. There was no malicious intent. I deeply, deeply care about him; we talk, we adore one another. And that's where it is."


On when Mayer bragged about dumping her: "Trust me, you'll never see that happen again from that man."
- UsWeekly/People Via HuffingtonPost.com

"Uncool" is an understatement to say the least. I never cared enough to think about anything as silly as Team Aniston vs. Team Joile, remember that? Dumb stuff.
I also don't think that Jennifer Aniston is making the situation any better by continuing to talk about it herself. Even if it still burns her, in public she should at least pretend to be past it. You're an actress lady! ACT!
However, if I'm going to form an opinion, I will say that I don't respect women who knowingly make designs on other women's men.
Of course the feelings one may develop are not exactly anyone's fault, and if the party in a commited relationship responds to random hookers, then the burden is on him, and not the ho in question. But a little self control is in order. What about the golden rule? Do unto others, as you would have done unto you. Right?

Btw, who the hell does that Frankenstein-headed John Mayer think he is? And why is anyone tossing punani in his direction?

What the Fudge?

Yikes! This has got to be the ugliest outfit that I have ever seen Sarah Jessica Parker in. I am not so offended by the dress and bolero it is the tights/stalkings and fugly shoes that have insulted me.

What do you guys think of this get-up? Should she have consulted Carrie on this one b4 wearing?

BET Hip Hop Awards 2008

So, I didn't watch the mess that was the 2008 BET Hip Hop Awards, because...Well, just no.
But while browsing the net today I couldn't help but come across the photos of everybody, male and female, looking horrid. (shudder)
Want a Pre-Halloween scare?



Keri Hilson and Ciara, who could both look so nice, but they are just doing WAY too much.



Toccara, a garment this ill-fitting should be a crime, especially on a woman her size. She needs all the lift and pull she can get.



I dont even know who this is, but TLC called from their "No Scrubs" video shoot, and they would really appreciate if this chick would quit jacking their '99 fresh.



Angel Lola Luv might have gotten a pass for being boring, but those shoes, really?

Best Dressed: Melyssa Ford

And so it is that Melyssa Ford won best dressed, in my opinion. Who'da thunk it? But am I wrong?

Trick, Get your Own!

Based on recent events, I have to say that there appears to be a shortage in available men. I say this because,almost every time I flip through a gossip magazine or peruse my usual websites there's always some type of drama going down. A little while back Kamilah posted on "Alicia Keys sinking her paws into Swizz Beats" Mashonda, who is the wife of Swizz was not all too happy about that, as I'm sure none of us would have been. Talk about an alleged "Good Girl Gone Bad"

Not fully recovering from this shocker,I come across a picture of these two How random right?

It appears that these two have been a bit more than friendly for quite some time now. Dwane Wade is still currently married to his long time partner, as a matter of fact, he recently released a statement stating that he and his wife are getting a divorce and when the time comes he will make one statement about the entire situation. I wonder if that statement is going to include the cause of the divorce! Rihanna don't got ish on Gabrielle and Alicia... just goes to show we all have a "bad girl" inside of us, or do we?

Would any of you out there date a married man? Even if he's separated or him and his wife are on there way to a divorce? Would you wait until the ink dries on the divorce papers or would you go right ahead and take part in the affair? I'm truly interested in knowing, so please enlighten me.

O.J. Simpson Is Dumb.

Thirteen years to the day after being acquitted of killing his wife and her friend in Los Angeles, O.J. Simpson was found guilty of robbing two sports-memorabilia dealers at gunpoint in a Las Vegas hotel room.
The 61-year-old former football star was convicted of all 12 counts late Friday after jurors deliberated for more than 13 hours. He released a heavy sigh as the charges were read and was immediately taken into custody.
Simpson, who went from American sports idol to celebrity-in-exile after his murder acquittal, could spend the rest of his life in prison.
His attorney said he would appeal.
Many people considered the four-week trial justice delayed. Simpson was cleared in 1995 of murdering his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend, Ronald Goldman, in one of the most sensational trials of the 20th century, but was later found liable for the deaths in a civil case.
"I don't like to use the word payback," defense attorney Yale Galanter said. "I can tell you from the beginning my biggest concern ... was whether or not the jury would be able to separate their very strong feelings about Mr. Simpson and judge him fairly and honestly."

-AP

What is wrong with this man? He seems to think he's Above The Law, like he's Steven-frickin'-Seagal or some shit!
Is it just me or should he have just been sitting his ass down somewhere sipping his iced tea and sucking on a Werthers Original and whatever else old folks do? He should have been thanking his lucky stars and counting his damned blessings, but some people always want to be in the midst of some fuckery. I guess he wanted to go to prison, and I would bet good money that he will be getting his wish this time. Appeal my ass! They got him, and maybe this is long overdue.

Guess who's up Next!

As is the trend, once a celebrity becomes hot enough they attempt to go into a field of which they have limited knowledge about. Hey, they've got to keep the money coming in, right? Next up on the desinger clothing block is Rihanna. She has not always been one for us to look up to in terms of dressing but I must admit she has come a long way in a short time. Here are some of her latest looks:




Click pics to enlarge

So do you think that she has what it takes to design clothing or does she just wear great clothing well? Would you buy the pieces that she sells? Beyonce tried the same thing and sad to say although many people were under the belief that she could do know wrong, they got a rude awaken when they saw her clothing.. EWWW! Dereon is so damn wrong. What's your take on it?

Can we give this man a moment please!

I see that Avy posted some pics of my boo Nelly.. but she can have him, I am so over that.. Here's my new piece of human flesh... Feast your eyes.. Oh! Look but don't touch please.



For those of you who don't already know who this fine specimen is, his name is Laz Alonso and that's all I'm giving up.. do your research ladies.

Here's an old bone so that you guys can leave my man alone:

Would you? Why or Why not?

Hello guys,

I missed you all, I hope that the feelings are mutual. I have a question that I would like to get feedback on, and I want you to be truthful because for 1) we only keep it real on this site, and for 2) I would like to know if all or most women think alike. The question is: Would you date the Garbage Collector?


There has been a negative connotation attached to this profession for quite a while and I have often wondered if it's just because women don't want to be hugging a stink a** man every night when he comes home, or if it runs much deeper?

I am an avid listener of the Michael Baisden show which airs on 98.7 f.m. He always has very interesting topics and it just so happened that this question was one of his topics a while ago. There were a lot of callers and some had mixed feelings/reviews, but the majority answered NO.

My take on this situation is this, I want to date a man that is on the same page as me in the things that really matter. What I mean by this is I'm about something, and everyday of my life except maybe Saturday and Sunday (since those my resting days... just kidding I'm on it 24/7:) I am doing something to propell myself into a better place financially, emotionally, mentally, and physically. If my man is not trying to elevate himself then it won't work. Now, I made sure to say that we should be on the same page in the things that "really matter" because you and your man are not always going to be on the same page about everything. However, the important things (define important amongst the two of you)that matter to you, should matter to him as well.
Many people are under the assumption that garbage collectors do not have any aspirations of being something different and if that's the case then so be it. However, don't assume that he doesn't have a plan for himself just because he's been taking your trash out for the last 4 years. That's just not right. He could be saving up for something, making lucrative investments among many other things. Like the old saying goes, never judge a book by his cover or in this case a man by his uniform. By the way, why should we live by societies definitions of what success really is? Thankfully, we all don't live by those definitions.

Again, this is just my take on it, many people have disaggreed with my stance on this matter and I'm sure many more will. As a matter of fact, a lot of the callers on the show said that they would never date such a man because it's embarrassing. Do we as an individual care that much about what the next man/woman is going to think about us and our relationships? If so, is that a good enough reason to let a good man go?

Please say it ain't so... what do you guys think?

K-Fed Is A _______

First things first, how much money do you think Britney Spears is spending on these erroneous ass weaves? How many children could be fed? How many wells could be built, for the price of her possum bush? Worst of all this is some unnecessary shit, I don't know what they do in L.A., but in NYC she could get a good full head done for like $150.00. Poor Patches.

Anyways, here is a rough snippet of her newest single, entitled "Womanizer". Currently it's not doing it for me, but we all know how these formulaic songs can work their way up in your brain stem. So do like she's telling you and don't try to front, she knows what you want.

Britney Spears: Womanizer

Men of the Day!

I really do just love Mr.Beckham.... This man is seriously HOTT!!!!! but in this pic it might just be the car.

As for Nelly... Well just look @ him, need I say more. I will only buy those Sean John Jeans if he comes with the package.


I'm posting two pics just because.... they're worth it.

Damn!!! Cookies or Cream.... Which way should I go.. Which way should I go... Awe hell I'll just have both.

Celeb Show down!

Just as a follow up to my previous post where I made the comment of my friends and I disagreeing on our "man of the moment" it changes with the season. Nonetheless, I wanted to put up some pictures of both Boris and Jay to see which ones you guys liked better.

Take a look and cast your votes. Let me know the reason in your decision making. Don't be shy. You guys already know where my vote lies.




Hold IT...



Wait...



Damn!


Ok....



Um....


WTF was I thinking.... hold up.. I may have made a mistake in my vote. Can I get a Redo. Damn Boris. Shiznit

Together at Last!

It seems like ages since we've seen these two together. Jay-Z is proudly sporting his wedding ring. Good to see. However, what's up with the ever growing high top and indoor shades? Not a good luck.

Anyway here are a few more pics of the two at an event in NYC.



Is there anyone else out there who has a (strange can't figure out why I have a)crush on Jay? or am I just insane for thinking that?

Oh I know why: it's his lyrics, his swagger, his attitude ... I swear he pulls me in everytime. However, my friends don't agree with my choice. They much prefer Boris Kodjoe.

Happy for the Newlyweds though.

By the way: What do you guys think of Beyonce's outfit? I love the dress but I can't say that I'm pleased with the shoes nor the accessories for that matter. They seem to klunky. What say you? Click on pics to enlarge
