"Basketball Wives" Brooke Bailey Beat Da Shit Out Of Jackie???

Image
She came to the party sporting a “Trust No Bitch” necklace – and left with that same necklace being thrown at her – but Brooke Bailey  is reported to have got a good one in on Jackie Christie . Basketball Wives LA took it back to the reality television show brand’s original format of bitchiness, back-stabbing and bombs – as viewers got a glimpse of Brooke and Jackie getting down at none other than an alcohol-serving establishment. Despite the fact that VH1 decided to cut the exact moment of physical contact between the clashing pair out of its broadcast, sources say Brooke Bailey didn’t disappoint her crew and is the the reigning champion of the fight. Here’s what Jackie Christie had to say to Brooke, moments after they kicked off: “It’s on bitch…It’s on. Keep trying to make a name for yourself bitch, I already gotta a name you fucking hoe… Come here…Lemme show you bitch… You lil big booty bitch, with your injections and shit – tramp!!! Here’s your necklace, trick!”

Gucci Mane Says Nas Is BROKE!!

Image
Atlanta rapper Gucci Mane has recently been taking shots, dissing almost everyone. Now he’s taking a public jab at New York rap veteran Nas. Gucci says: “Does Nas make a 150 blood money per week off a mixtape. Yeah, blood money. Nas’ f*cked up right now. Yeah. Me and you got whips, I just bought me something. Don’t you have a drop top? … You got the white one, I’m getting the black one? Nas got one? [laughs]“ Does Gucci Mane say ridiculous things in order to gain press? Of course. Don’t believe me.. Ask Keyshia Cole.

NBA Suspends Matt Barnes!!

Image
Matt Barnes has been suspended by the NBA for one game (without pay) ... after the L.A. Clippers forward pled "no contest" to interfering with the duties of a police officer. According to the NBA, Barnes will serve out his suspension tomorrow -- when the Clippers play their season opener against the Memphis Grizzlies. The punishment stems from an incident back in July -- when Barnes was arrested for driving on a suspended license and resisting arrest. Barnes eventually pled no contest to misdemeanor interference with the duties of a police officer ... and his suspended license charge was dropped when he proved he had a valid license. Barnes just tweeted about the NBA's decision, calling it a "joke" -- but wishing his team good luck in his absence. He'll be back on Friday when the Clippers face the Lakers.

Producer Sean Garrett SUED By American Express!!

Image
Don't mess with American Express -- that's the lesson for hip-hop mega-producer Sean Garrett , who was just ordered to fork over $108,084 to the credit card company.   Amex sued Garrett claiming he never paid off the hefty tab on his card. Amex filed a motion for default judgment last month -- because Garrett didn't respond to the lawsuit -- and the judge ruled in Amex's favor. Unfortunately for Amex, Garrett has a ton of other financial woes -- the State of Georgia filed a tax lien  against him earlier this year, claiming he owes over $1 MILLION in back taxes for the years 2006, 2007, and 2010. Garrett previously claimed the AMEX bill was the result of identity theft.

"Basketball Wives" Tami Roman Brings In 6 Figures From Endorsement!!

Image
" Basketball Wives " star Tami Roman traded in her large behind for some large bills -- because a diet company offered her a SIX FIGURE endorsement deal after she shed 25 pounds using their product!!! Sources close to Tami tell that she got all the way up to 185 lbs recently and was determined to lose the weight. She started exercising her ass off, ate healthy food ... and began using a product called NV Sprinkles -- where you sprinkle powder on your food to make you eat less. Tami dropped the weight in about two months and was so vocal in the press about the NV's help in her speedy weight loss, the company actually approached her to be the face of the product. Tami signed on for a mid-six-figure endorsement deal and all she has to do is keep the weight off.

"Basketball Wives:LA" Fires 4 Castmates!!!

Image
"Basketball Wives: L.A. " axed four of its six cast members -- and Urban Report has learned the catalyst was when Gloria Govan shut producers out of her nuptials to L.A. Lakers star Matt Barnes . Sources connected to the show tell that the producers are getting rid of Gloria, Laura Govan , Malaysia Pargo and Brooke Bailey because the wives, especially Gloria, weren't allowing "all of their reality to be filmed." We're told the breaking point came when Gloria (who is known for her feisty ways) jetted off to Vegas to marry Barnes -- and didn't even let the show know about it. The producers felt extremely disrespected by her actions and made the decision to clean house and they haven't told the wives they're getting fired yet, but are already looking for new women to fill their spots. Draya Michele and Jackie Christie will be the only returning members.

Azealia Banks Calls Dolce & Gabbana’s Spring 2013 Collection ‘Racist’!!!

Image
Extremely outspoken rookie  rapper, AZEALIA BANKS has waged a war against luxury fashion house Dolce & Gabbana. BANKS tweeted, “Definitely boycotting Dolce & Gabbana. Whoever designed that racist a** Dolce and Gabbana collection needs a swift kick in the mouth and a big d*** up the a**.” Normally BANKS’ outlandish antics may have been side-eyed, but many do believe D&G’s “black mammie” images used throughout the collection are bit offensive. The NYC rapper ended her rant with, ” I really hate when people do corny, racist things then try to justify it as ‘art’. It’s all just really unnecessary. The clothes in the collection were find without all the ‘black mammie’ imagery.”

Miquel Addresses The GAY Rumors!!

Image
R&B singer, MIGUEL , stopped by Power 105.1′s The Breakfast Club to promote his sophomore album, Kaleidoscope Dream. MIGUEL addressed questions regarding his unique fashion sense and sexuality throughout the interview. When asked about his “odd style,” MIGUEL stated, “Looking back, I did look odd. In the midst of trying to maintain some kind of individuality, while being marketed a certain way, I was just trying to be myself in the midst of being pressured to be something I wasn’t.” MIGUEL was also asked how he feels about his sexuality being so widely questioned he stated, “I think at first, kind of getting acclimated to the fact that people are watching and everything you do is scrutinized, I had to take a step back. Now when I look at everything, I just know that first and foremost is the music. I don’t want to do anything that detracts from who I am as an artist. People are gonna say what they’re gonna say.”

Lil Scrappy Violates Probation!!

Image
Monday it was reported that rapper LIL’ SCRAPPY was detained by Atlanta police after violating his probation stemming from 2008 drug arrest for drug possession. While the description of his probation violation was not initially revealed, we now learn that that it’s all because he failed to check in with his probation officer, according to TMZ . Luckily for SCRAPPY the one person that remains in his corner is his fiance and fellow LHH:ATL co-star ERICA DIXON . “Thank for your prayers. Riding for my babes and great things are in store in the am,” DIXON tweeted yesterday morning before SCRAPPY had to appear before a judge. DIXON continued, “Court this morning and I know God has this…..praises anyway.” SCRAPPY remains behind bars, and is expected to go to court again in the near future.

Wiz Khalifa Done Smoking WEED????

Image
Professional pot head WIZ KHALIFA says he’s stopped smoking weed for his fiance AMBER ROSE during her pregnancy – well, kind of. The rapper admitted that because ROSE is so sensitive to smells during her pregnancy he has stopped smoking weed around his expecting wifey. “I smoke outside instead of inside. Everything is all about smells, man,” he told MTV news. The “Roll Up,” rapper continued, “If the smell irritates her, then it gotta go.” Sacrifice in the name of love. WIZ and AMBER are expecting their baby around March of next year.

Obama Says He Doesn't Listen To Jay-Z Around His Daughters!!

Image
President BARACK OBAMA has admitted that although he’s a fan rap music by JAY-Z and NAS , he is too embarrassed to enjoy the music with his daughters because of the some of the mature lyrics. In an interview with Glamour magazine, the POTUS revealed he’s a cool dad that draws boundaries. “You know, we actually don’t constrain what she listens to,” OBAMA says. He continued, “We expect her to show some good judgment. She listens to my iPod and has gotten hip to stuff that was made well before she was born like Motown, jazz, classic rock.” “We actually share tastes in hip-hop and rap music but we don’t listen to it together, because some of the language in there would embarrass me — at least while I’m listening to it with her,” Barack eventually revealed. “Folks like Jay-Z, Nas, we both like them, but when it comes on and I’m sitting with her and Sasha, then I fast-forward because it would make me blush,” OBAMA says. Our President may have 99 problems, but his family isn’t one.
