Lauryn Hill just pled guilty to a major federal crime ... admitting she intentionally failed to file several tax returns in the past decade -- and now the former Fugees singer faces 3 years in prison. Hill pled guilty today to three counts of failure to file tax returns for the years 2005, 2006, and 2007 -- when she earned more than $1.8 million. When the judge asked if Hill "intentionally and willingly" failed to file the returns, she replied, "Yes." In addition to the 3 years behind bars, Hill could be smacked with $75,000 in fines. Hill was released on $150,000 bail. Her sentencing hearing is set for November.

The woman arrested in front of Usher 's house last weekend was later admitted to a psych ward for mental evaluation -- after insisting she was the singer's wife -- this according to law enforcement. 26-year-old Darshelle Jones-Rakestraw was arrested outside Usher's Georgia home Sunday after disobeying a criminal trespass warning -- ordering her to stay off his property. Cops issued the warning the previous day, when Darshelle showed up to Usher's house the first time ... and someone on the property had to call police. Now, Urban Report has obtained the incident report from Johns Creek PD that describes the events in detail -- claiming when cops arrived Sunday in response to a suspicious person call, they found Darshelle on the front porch using her iPad. According to the report, Usher had spotted her on his surveillance camera and called the police himself. Once they identified her, cops placed Darshelle under arrest for violating the criminal trespass

USHER has taken legal action against a woman who has completely lost her marbles! Darshelle Jones-Rakestraw claims she’s USHER’s wife, and has been given a temporary restraining order after she allegedly turned up at his house uninvited on more than one occasion. According to TMZ , police were called when the stalker appeared at his mansion on June 23, and she was issued with a stern warning, but returned again the next day, claiming she was the singer’s wife and couldn’t get into his home because she had lost her keys. Usher will be seeking to get a permanent order in place at a hearing next month, while Darshelle takes to YouTube to explain her relationship with USHER and her version of what happened.

BasketballWives producer Shaunie O’Neal might be responsible for bringing the other girls drama to the forefront each season, but the former Mrs. Shaq Diesel has somehow managed to keep her own personal and love life behind the scenes and off camera.From her relationship with ex-husband Shaquille O’Neal to her current relationship with young model Marlon Yates. But it looks like her stroll through cougar-ville with her barely-legal boo thang may have backfired this time. Despite her best efforts however, Marlon may have put the producer in a precarious position. Marlon and Draya Michele were having an “interesting” conversation on Twitter via DM, which she may have unknowingly tweeted and Draya was letting Marlon know that she was “mad” about something. What is even more interesting is that Marlon has deleted the tweets which seems real suspect.   Check out the conversation below: “@MarlonYatesJr lol. No I’m chillin. Impatient if anything. Never mad.” “@MarlonYatesJr marlon I

Snoop Dogg was detained at an airport in Norway this morning ... after customs officers discovered ..... SNOOP WAS PACKIN' WEED!!! The Agder Police Department tells that ... Snoop was stopped at customs at the Kjevic Airport in Kristiansand ... where officials discovered 8 grams of weed. According to the cops, anything less than 15 grams is merely punishable by a fine -- and in Snoop's case, the violation ran him 12,000 Norwegian Krone ... which converts to roughly $1,980.13.  Snoop was cooperative ... and quickly took care of the fine ... because he probably carries that kind of money in his back pocket. FYI -- Snoop is in the country to perform at the Hove Festival at 10:30 PM local time ... which still gives him a few hours to find some replacement weed.

 Yesterday on NYC’ on ANGIE MARTINEZ ‘ radio show on Hot 97.1, guest MARY J. BLIGE , finally addressed the infamous Burger King commercial. The singer who was bashed earlier this year for singing a song about chicken that had racist undertones in the commercial, said it wasn’t pitched to her the way it was executed. “It was suppose to be a branding opportunity, not a chicken commercial. It was about a sandwich and I thought I was singing about the ingredients,” BLIGE continued, “I checked out the ad online and all I could see was chicken and buffoonery, and I’m like ‘what the hell’ and it broke my heart.” She says the response by the Black community to the commercial had her dropping her head in shame. “People were just going crazy. The thing that hurt me most was when people were beginning to say vicious and hurtful things that didn’t even have nothing to do with that. Everyone was running with it and running and running with it and crucifying me, so I just pulled back and wat

Just when we couldn’t take anymore of reality TV, former producer MEMPHITZ dropped the trailer for his reality show Mistresses Of Atlanta . The show includes a cast of strippers, “models”, and vixens ready to put their business on blast (taping getting butt shots) as well as the business of many of the athletes, music artist, and actors they have had relationships with. The show will chronicle the lives of different women (and er…a man?) in the Atlanta strip club and social circuit that admittedly sleep with married men for money, cars and other luxuries.

He previously addressed the dating rumors via his Twitter page, kinda, tweeting, “So papparrazzi was on one today! Wonder what the headlines are gonna read this time.” Neither star has denied the rumors, only time will tell. Do you think they make a good couple?

Love & Hip-Hop: Atlanta ‘s JOSELINE HERNANDEZ won’t stop until we get enough. Homegirl has launched yet another Twitter rant defending her “relationship” with her man(ager) STEVIE J.

Apparently GREG has been sporting his newest love interest PR rep PAM PINNOCK (ex girlfriend of MIKE TYSON ) all around the ‘A,’ and NENE it was being reported that NENE wasn’t to happy.

U will NEVER break the Leakes bond,” she tweeted regarding he amicable relationship she still has with her ex-husband GREG. NENE’s new sitcom The New Normal will be out later this year.

LISA RAYE is the latest celebrity to take to Twitter to denounce a VH1 reality show. She wrote her disdain for VH1′s newest reality show, Hollywood Exes by tweeting, “For real??…Another show with fighting, scrapping, throwing….WTF man. Say it aint so HOLLYWOOD exes.” Now airing the second season of Single Ladies, RAYE should be careful of getting into a messy situation considering both the show she works on, and the show she isn’t fond of, are on the same VH1 network.

Rodney King was not a wealthy man when he died ... and now his family is asking the public for donations so they can pay for a proper burial for the infamous LAPD beating victim. Despite the fact King scored a $3.8 million settlement from the City of L.A. after the 1992 incident, King's family tells that there is basically no money left over to pay for his funeral costs, which are expected to run north of $22k. The family has now issued a statement, through their rep, Kali Bowyer , asking people to contribute to a memorial fund established "for those who wish to contribute to the King family." King's 3 adult daughters, along with other family members, are desperately trying to come up with the cash ... but Bowyer tells us, "They need the money." King is scheduled to be laid to rest on June 30. As far as the mystery surrounding Rodney's death, the family says, "[We are] looking forward to a swift investigation into the death of our f

Flo Rida is learning the hard way -- it's never a good idea to lie in court ... and now a judge is ordering him to cough up $7k for his deceitful ways.  He is being sued by his former assistant Mahogany Miller -- who claims he worked her to the bone for a measly $3.08 / hour and then fired her when she complained -- alleging she was just an unpaid intern. Problem is, Flo originally didn't respond to the suit in time and later told a judge it was because he was never served papers -- claiming they went to a woman named Stephany Nelson, whom he didn't know -- and the address listed for him was incorrect. Turns out, his excuses were big, fat LIES ... Flo later copped to the address originally listed and admitted that Nelson was actually an employee of his. In other words, his original statements were total fabrications. Caught red-handed, the judge said the rapper's deception was "premeditated" and ordered him to pay Mahogany $7k for her atto

 Who wore it better? 

A Kansas City , Mo., mother is behind bars, accused of keeping her 10-year-old daughter locked in a closet, not letting her come out to eat, sleep or even go to the bathroom. The girl weighed just 32 pounds, and hospital records indicated that she has only gained 6 pounds since she was 4 or 5 years old, according to a police probable cause statement. The girl also suffers from "multiple healing skin injuries and failure to thrive," the statement said. "She weighed a little over a third of what a 10-year-old should weigh," Kansas City Police Capt . Steve Young said. "We don't know how long or how frequently she's been in there [the closet], but it's clear she'd spent a significant amount of time in there." Kansas City police met Missouri Children's Division workers outside the apartment building Friday morning after the division received a hotline call about a girl who was locked up and unable to eat or use the restroom.

Salt on the wound for fired " Basketball Wives " star Jennifer Williams has learned her expensive Bentley is on the verge of being repossessed ... by force of law. The Toyota Motor Credit Corporation in Syosset, NY just filed a lawsuit against Williams, claiming she stopped making payments on her used 2006 white Bentley back in 2009 -- and it wants the car back. According to the lawsuit, TMCC has made several attempts to peacefully repossess the vehicle ... but was unsuccessful. Now, it wants a court to FORCE Williams to give back the car. TMCC is also demanding Williams pay the entire outstanding balance on the car -- $92,310. A rep for Williams tells that "Jennifer hasn't been served documents in reference to this lawsuit. Anything related to community property acquired during the marriage, such as the car, is an issue that is currently being addressed in her divorce proceedings."

Dennis Rodman drunkenly barged into his ex-wife's house last month early in the morning, attacked her, then insisted on taking her and their son out for breakfast ... where he slammed 4-6 Jägermeister shots -- this according to his ex-wife. Michelle Rodman has obtained a temporary restraining order against Dennis over the May 28th incident -- but was back in court in Orange County, CA yesterday to make it permanent. Michelle took the stand, describing the events that took place -- claiming Dennis had shown up to Michelle's house wasted at 2:30AM, completely unannounced, and demanded to see his 11-year-old son. Michelle said Dennis attacked her when she refused, shoving her onto a bed, then took off -- only to return hours later, still intoxicated, asking to take their son to breakfast. Michelle obliged ... on the condition she came with. At breakfast, Michelle said Dennis got even more wasted -- ordering 4-6 shots of Jägermeister ... in front of the kid ... and

NBA superstar Tony Parker -- who was injured when Drake and Chris Brown 's posses squared off -- is suing the NYC nightclub for $20 million, claiming it should never have let Rihanna 's exes in at the same time ... and Chris Brown as well as Drake could end up as defendants. The San Antonio Spurs star filed the lawsuit Thursday in NY State Supreme Court ... against W.i.P. Nightclub -- and in the suit he alleges the club's security was negligent for allowing the brawl to ever happen. Parker says he was hit by shards of glass and suffered lacerations to his cornea when bottles started flying in the fight last week. The lawsuit alleges club management, knowing there was "bad blood between Drake and Brown," was driven by the almighty buck and continued selling alcohol to the participants in the brawl, despite the fact that some were "visibly intoxicated." Parker's injury is a huge deal because it could affect his NBA career, and -- mor

KEISHA KNIGHT PULLIAM says you won’t be seeing her on Real Housewives of Atlanta . It was reported earlier this week that PULLIAM planned on joining the cast of the hit Bravo series, but she says all the speculation is false. “I am NOT joining the cast of RHOA this season… Next season or any season. I honestly don’t know where this rumor is coming from!!” PULLIAM tweeted on Wednesday. Although she has made a cameo on the show before, she has made it clear that she will not be joining the franchise in the future.

Now that the aftermath of the DRAKE and CHRIS BROWN fight has subsided, rapper LIL’ KIM has decided to weigh in and give her two cents. KIM who has 2010 beef with DRAKE that stems from her hate for NICKI MINAJ said to PRLOG , “I mean, people are so hard on Chris. He made a mistake, he owned up to it, and he and Rihanna have moved on with their lives. But since that incident it’s so easy to blame Chris. What I know about Drake is he is b***h-made.” When asked to explain the term she responded, “Meaning he’s an instigator, and a p***y. He had no issue stepping to Lil Kim, I’m like five feet tall.” Like NICKI, KIM feels male rappers shouldn’t war with females, “But he didn’t try stepping to Chris, a man, because he’s simply a coward. At the end of the day, you don’t gotta be a tough guy to be a rapper, but don’t dress up in Gangsta Drag when you a b***h,” she continued. “Drake’s a bottom – y’all know what I mean when I say that.” Could KIM be questioning DRAKE’s sexual orient

Real Housewives Of Atlanta star KANDI BURRUSS stopped by fellow Bravo star BETHENNY FRANKEL ‘s daytime talk show yesterday to promote her adult toy line Bedroom Kandi. FRANKEL questioned BURRUSS about her role as the spokesperson for Black women who want to become more liberated sexually. She responded, “In our community, the Black community, it is very hush hush to talk about sex. Everything is hush hush, like you can’t talk about that.” She continued to say that often Black men are not open to women using toys in the bedroom. “Black men a lot of times are not down with that at all because it’s this whole [sterotype] of ‘Black men are supposed to be swinging,’ which a lot of them are not! But they feel like ‘You don’t need that, I’m handling things around here.” When asked about why she did a toy line, she replied, “We don’t always get the ‘AHHHHH’ moment every single time. So if we don’t get that every single time, why can’t we get a little bit of extra?” Do you agree wit

NFL star MICHAEL VICK is set to wed his longtime fiance KIJAFA FRINK at the end of this month. VICK proposed to his girlfriend in 2007 at a surprise birthday party, that was shown in his BET docu-series The Micheal Vick Project . Now we thought the two had already hitched, but the wedding takes place June 30th at Fountainebleau Miami Beach in South Florida. VICK along with FRINK, co-owner of PNK Elephant boutique, have invited more than 300 guests, mostly NFL friends and family members.

Hip Hop legend NAS must have changed his mind about hip hop being dead. The MC spoke with Rap-Up about his views on the rap game yesterday, and said that Harlem artist AZEALIA BANKS and Philly’s own MEEK MILL are holding it down for rap. “She has incredible star power, you can see it already,”NAS said of BANKS. He continued, “To come across the total package in this game, you need more than just a hot 16 and not everybody is blessed with the total package. She has it.” When asked about artist MEEK MILL, he replied, “I got my eyes on him. He’s the next one to take this shit over. I’m rooting for him!” “We have to support Meek Mill’s movement because he’s talking about real life and if we don’t support that, then what are we doing,” NAS questioned. NAS’s album Life is Good , is set to be release July 17. What do you think about the current state of hip hop?  

Now who said you can’t turn a stripper into a housewife? AMBER ROSE is ready to put all the fame on hold for a while, to focus on raising a family and being a supportive wife to fiancé WIZ KHALIFA . Instead of venturing into music and putting out albums, the fashion personality says she wouldn’t have time considering she would like to have children soon. “Like I’m 28 now and me and Wiz are in love and we’re thinking about having kids and to do shows and start a music career is just not on the cards for me,” ROSE tells HipHollywood.com on the set NICK CANNON ‘s new comedy School Dance .

Whoa. The newest pack of reality starlets, the cast of Love & Hip Hop Atlanta, need crisis control after only one episode. We were shocked yesterday when JOSELINE decided to expose all her goodies to prove her gender, but now fellow cast mates K. MICHELLE and KARLIE REDD get into a heated Twitter beef that reveals even more about the girl’s personal mess. The feud started when KARLIE retweeted an offensive comment made about K. MICHELLE by another user, and once K.MICHELLE checked her on it, KARLIE went awf. “…But now u wanna go there it’s on!! At least I can get a man NO BODY WANTS U HORSE!” Karlie wrote defending her decision to retweet the comment. After K.MICHELLE responded calling her a “cum snatcher,” KARLIE felt it was good time to tweet K.MICHELLE was unable to get a man and poke fun at the fact she was beaten by her last one. K.MICHELLE hit back hard writing, “@KARLIEREDD you can say whatever bout me, but a woman that doesn’t claim her own child and wears beauty s

Move over BEYONCE and J.LO – there’s a new singer-turned-fashionista on the scene! JENNIFER HUDSON just announced the launch of her new fashion line, The Jennifer Hudson Collection, on the home shopping network QVC. Capitalizing on her weight loss journey, the line will cater to women sizes 6-16 and will be offered at an affordable price point. J. HUD told Women’s Wear Daily, ”I feel like I represent every woman. I’ve been on both sides of the fence. I’ve been a big girl and now whatever this is, the average size, whatever you want to call it. But I wanted the clothes to be where any girl could wear it – no matter what size you are.” The ‘Dreamgirls’ actress expects her collection to draw in the multicultural market as well as music and film fan. J. HUD insists she would wear every single item in her 14-piece range.

Some of Halle Berry 's "New Year's Eve" money will be going to baby daddy Gabriel Aubry , because a judge has just ordered the actress to shell out nearly a quarter of a million bucks a year in child support. Lawyers for Halle and Gabriel were in court Monday, and sources connected with Gabriel tell that the family law judge ordered Halle to pay Nahla 's daddy $20,000 a month . Although Nahla is 4, until Monday there was never a child support order issued by a judge, but now one is in place. We're told both sides are still at war, and they will soon be battling in court over whether Halle can take Nahla and move to Paris.

Urban Report has obtained the mug shot taken by Dwyane Wade 's ex-wife ... moments after she was arrested this weekend for allegedly attempting to abduct the former couple's two children. A rep for the Cook County Sheriff's Office released a statement saying, " Siohvaughn Funches-Wade was charged with two counts of attempted child abduction, two counts of unlawful visitation interference and one count of resisting arrest." Funches-Wade's bond was set at $10,000 ... which she posted. She's set to appear in court again in August. Wade -- who's currently in the middle of the NBA Finals -- has been at war with his ex ever since they divorced back in 2010. Wade was awarded primary custody of their two boys ... and Siohvaughn has visitation rights ... but she's clearly not happy with the current arrangement. The financial details of their divorce are not yet finalized -- and in recent court docs, Wade said his ex has been using the childr

 Lil Wayne and the rest of the Young Money crew want Drake to put an end to his beef with Chris Brown ... STAT -- because the bad blood is bad for busine$$. It's a sign that as bad ass as rap may be ... the bottom line is the bottom line. Sources close to Drake tell that Drizzy has received several calls from Weezy, Birdman, Mack Maine and more -- urging the rapper to extend an olive branch to Brown after last week's nightclub brawl in NYC.  Wayne and co. are worried the rift will affect business -- since Brown appears on several tracks with Young Money members and, pure and simple, Brown = hits.  Drake doesn't want to reach out to Breezy until he knows CB doesn't actually blame him for last week's melee -- despite what Brown's lawyer has been saying ... that Drake was one of the aggressors.  Young Money's on Drake's side no matter what -- but as one source put it, "Making money matters most."

Reality star JOSELINE HERNANDEZ recently tweeted a naked photo of herself to shut down rumors that she is man. With the very explosive premiere of Love and Hip Hop: Atlanta , many have questioned breakout star JOSELINE HERNANDEZ’ gender. Thanks to prominent jaw line and androgynous facial features, Twitter fans of the show have speculated that the Puerto Rican stripper turned rapper was born a man. Even some unanimous sources have come forth via blogs to claim they had proof that JOSELINE was in actuality JOE in high school. Unable to cope with the lies, JOSELINE however recently tweeted a picture of herself completely naked, with the caption, “”B****es I’m 100% women. F**k yall eat my p***y.” She added, “I will no longer entertain the foolishness it’s been real & fun @ the same time I hope a few of you’ll received the 30 second of fame tweets. Do you believe her?

After the dust has settled on the NICKI MINAJ vs. Hot 97 fiasco, Young Money commander-in-chief LIL’ WAYNE has finally come forward to explain his decision to pull NICKI and all Young Money artists from Summer Jam 2012. The man that pulls the Young Money strings told MTV News , “ I believe females deserve the ultimate respect at all times. No matter what, when, where or how. So, as soon as she called me and said that she felt disrespected, I just declined everything. I pulled her from the show because first of all no person that works with me will be disrespected in my presence as long as I’m on this planet.” Sort of ironic that this all coming from a rapper known for referring to women as b*tches and H*es repeatedly on his records. Hmmm…interesting. NICKI would have been the first female emcee to headline the show. Since dropping out of the show, NICKI has promised her fans a free concert to make amends for her no-show. But the residual controversy still lingers and has even

After watching the pearl-clutching debut of Vh1’s Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta , there’s definitely one person that stands out most. Meet JOSELINE HERNANDEZ, the feisty former stripper who candidly says whatever is on her mind. Urban Report  caught up with Joseline right before the premiere episode of VH1’s latest hit to discuss her background, her relationship with STEVIE J , and her understanding of his relationship with girlfriend MIMI FAUST .  Your accent is part Latin with a southern twang. What’s your background? JH: I’m Puerto Rican. I was born in Puerto Rico and I went to Miami. I was raised in Miami. That’s where the accent is coming from. I’ve been coming back and forth to Atlanta for like seven years. I’ve always moved back to Miami or to Dallas and always come back to Atlanta. So, this last summer I’ve been back in Atlanta for a year and a half. How did you become a cast member on Love & Hip Hop? JH: Well I actually met Stevie J, my manager, through a friend

Ever since producer MONA SCOTT-YOUNG announced she’d be serving Southern “tea” in place of Long Islands this season, Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta made its way on plenty radars. Last night, the countdown ran its course and VH1 stuck to their guns, debuting an episode so drama-packed it could easily be mistaken for the finale. For starters, we were introduced to the enigmatic couple that is MIMI FAUST and music producer STEVIE J … and rap artist JOSELINE HERNANDEZ . Let’s do some math. MIMI + STEVIE = an item. STEVIE = JOSELINE’s man [ager]. JOSELINE + STEVIE = a pissed off MIMI. While these equations may never do this trio any justice, just know that their shenanigans are already spin-off worthy. On top off accusations of adultery just within the first episode, we’re introduced to MOMMA DEE , reformed pimp and mother of rapper LIL’ SCRAPPY , who will probably become best known for #shading her son’s ex, rapper DIAMOND . SCRAPPY’s longtime, and current, girlfriend ERICA DIXON

Drake is solely to blame for inflaming the violent mob that severely injured several innocent people ... so says a 4th woman who was injured in the melee and is now threatening to sue the rapper. Innocent Victim #4, Vladimira Brace, has lawyered up -- claiming she suffered a spinal injury when she was trampled in the melee that ensued inside W.i.P. nightclub in NYC on June 13. Brace's attorney has already fired off a letter to Drake's reps ... saying point blank, "Your client instigated a brawl with Mr. Chris Brown " ... and adds, "[Drake's] actions were reckless and negligent in inflaming a violent mob." The letter continues, "My client personally observed several members of [Drake's] entourage throwing bottles of champagne with reckless and criminal disregard of the well-being of the innocent bystanders." Brace's attorney, Allan Friedman , claims Drake has a "well documented history" of vulgar, abusive and pro

Sorry ladies, Bobby Brown is officially off the market ... again. Bobby married his manager/baby mama Alicia Etheredge yesterday ... during a private ceremony in Honolulu. According to People.com , Brown was surrounded by some of his kids Landon, La'Princia, Bobby Jr. and 3-year-old Cassius ... the couple's only child together. Bobbi Kristina -- Brown's daughter with ex-wife Whitney Houston was apparently not at the ceremony.

Bobby and Alicia got engaged back in 2010 ... 3 years after his divorce from Whitney.

OPRAH WINFREY has mastered social networking, and recently confirmed that RIHANNA will be guest on her show Oprah’s Next Chapter. Following the lead of BOBBI KRISTINA , 50 CENT , and the KARDASHIANS , RI-RI will now take a place in the hot seat of her choice for an in-depth interview with OPRAH. Considering rumors about RIHANNA’s drug use, her involvement in love triangle with performers DRAKE and CHRIS BROWN , and her making the decision to get her 17th tattoo (a huge falcon on her ankle), we are pretty sure she and OPRAH will have much to discuss. OPRAH confirmed that the RIHANNA sit down will air sometime in August. Will you be watching?
