Asians Want $4 Billion For This Picture
Asian Pacific Islanders who live in LA have filed a $4 billion lawsuit against teen star Miley Cyrus for their pain and suffering after seeing this picture of Cyrus slanting her eyes.
Attorney Lucie J. Kim, who filed the suit in L.A. county, says she represents 1 million Asian Pacific Islanders who feel their civil rights have been violated, and they want $4,000 apiece from Miley.
There’s no word on if they are also suing the guy on the left who is also making an offensive gesture, or the third guy from the right — who is really insulting.
Celebs Out & About: Tichina Arnold’s B-Day Bash
I have no clue why Faith Evans was giving Oscar nominee Taraji P. Henson the evil eye at Tichina Arnold’s birthday party last night in Hollywood. Maybe because she knows Taraji stepped her style game up? Faith gets an ‘F’ for that hat, that loud neon blouse and that faux fur vest. But the Christian Louboutin boots are the biz!

We LOVE those leopard skin boots on LisaRaye, who is going through some trials and tribulations with her ex-husband. We know she has some of the Premier’s assets stashed in off-shore accounts so we’re not worried about sista girl.
Speaking of assets, the birthday girl Tichina Arnold showed hers off as she strolled past the paps into her party. Tichina’s look is hawt! I LOVE the shimmering over the shoulder dress, those suede pumps and even the clutch that’s dyed to match her weave. As Jazze Pha would say, ‘WHOA!”
Other guests at the party included Keshia Knight Pulliam, Jalen Rose, Wesley Snipes (when is he going to jail?) and celebrity gossip columnist Jawn Murray.

Asian Man Uses Vulcan Nerve Pinch On Mugger, Puts Him To Sleep
Click here if you can’t view the video
Police always caution robbery victims to comply with muggers and give them what they want to avoid injury or death.
But a quick think Asian man decided to fight for what was his when a black dude jumped him at a train station.
After struggling with the crook for what seemed like hours, the Asian man finally applied the Vulcan nerve pinch — made famous by officer Spock on “Star Trek” — to put the fool to sleep.
The action was all caught on video, including the aftermath when the thug’s friend tries to wake him up.
Angelina Jolie “Totally Creeped Out” By Octopussy
According to the Chicago Sun Times, actress Angelina Jolie is “totally creeped out” by reports that Nadya “Octopussy” Suleman had plastic surgery to look like her.
The woman who made news for giving birth to octuplets through artificial insemination, denies wanting to be Jolie.
But friends say Suleman is lying and there are indications that Suleman may have been stalking Jolie:
Though Suleman categorically denies she’s undergone any plastic surgery to make her look like Jolie, neighbors, friends and family members of the unemployed single mom of 14 challenge those denials — as do earlier photographs of Suleman clearly indicating thinner lips and a different-looking nose.
Apparently, over the past year or so, Suleman has made attempts to reach out the the actress — sending her admiring letters and extolling her talent and humanitarian efforts on behalf of children’s issues around the world.
“At least she wasn’t a total crazy … like the stalkers who try to actually meet Angelina and follow along with the paparazzi,” added the source, who also said, ”It is clear this woman needs psychological help. It’s one thing to clip out a celebrity’s photo from a magazine and ask your [hair] stylist to copy that cut. Who hasn’t done that? But to have a nose job, have collagen injections in your lips and start talking like Angelina — that’s over the top.” [LINK]
Why Celebrity Publicists Will Soon Be a Thing Of the Past
Page Six has a story about a celebrity publicist named Amanda Silverman who, like other publicists, makes a fabulous living fabricating lies for their clients.
They write that when news broke of a woman being assaulted by Chris Brown, Silverman was asked how Rihanna was doing:
Silverman claimed Rihanna, her client, had only been in a traffic mishap, and said she was “fine.” She told another reporter the “Umbrella” singer was “well. Thank you for your concern and support.” [LINK]
The fact of the matter is, some publicists are paid ridiculous fees ($6,000 and up per month) to basically lie their asses off and keep the public in the dark about their clients. The more money they make, the bigger the lies they tell and the happier their clients are.
The tide began to change for publicists when shock jocks like Wendy Williams and celebrity bloggers like Perez Hilton came along.
Purveyors of truth like Wendy and Perez are the anti-publicists. The public is hungry for the real low down on celebrities and that’s what drives millions of listeners and viewers to Wendy and Perez daily.
It would be wise for publicists to recognize that fact because some in the mainstream media are already bypassing publicists and going directly to the blogs to pull information for their stories.
Pretty soon, lying publicists will be a thing of the past and the blogs will be in total control of disseminating celebrity information.
Rihanna and Chris Brown Ordered Not To Leave LA
Despite reports to the contrary that Chris Brown is hiding out at his mother’s place in Virginia, and Rihanna has returned to Barbados, FOX 411 reports that both Rihanna and CB are still in the LA area.
The battling lovebirds were ordered to remain in LA by the LAPD until the investigation into their dust up last week is completed.
And so the couple waits, in separate accommodations, to see if the police or district attorney need to do more questioning about their wild ride on Saturday night that left Rihanna bruised and beaten, and Brown the object of much derision.
A source says, “Can you believe that Chris hasn’t even issued an apology? Three days and nothing.” Of course, a public apology might be thought of as admission of guilt. But still: Brown so far has not made wise decisions. [LINK]
But that’s not all, according to one industry insider, there won’t be enough security to protect CB when he shows up for court on March 5th.
The industry insider, who normally keeps his emotions in check, told me that Rihanna has made many friends on the west coast — mostly male — who are “sick to death” about what Chris did to Rihanna.
“Some of these industry cats have ties with the bloods… the Crips,” said the insider. “They wish they had been passing by at that exact moment when he attacked her. The outcome would have been much different!”
The insider dismissed my speech about violence begetting violence. He told me Chris Brown has already been tried and convicted in the court of public opinion.
“Watch the news coming out of LA on March 5th, he said. “Somebody’s going to f*ck him up, no doubt about it.”
T.I. Covers Blender Magazine
In the new issue of Blender magazine, on stands now, T.I. shares his feelings about doing federal time in March and how he plans to cope with being away from his family and friends for 10 months:
You stay to yourself as much as possible. Speak when spoken to. And just mind your business. You ain’t there to make friends. You ain’t there to join in on the jailhouse games. You just there to do your time and go home.”
…Some luxuries are available in some facilities that aren’t available in others. Some facilities have a TV, but you can’t watch it ’cause cats in there wild out so much. I’ll read the Bible a lot. Biographies, magazines. I don’t really read fiction. I read for information, rather than for entertainment. I’ll talk on the phone a lot. I’ll spend a whole day on the phone, checkin’ on what’s goin’ on, makin’ sure things are taken care of. Ain’t a lot to do.
People are in awe at times about who I am. I can’t believe I’m in here with T.I., but that usually goes away in about three, four days. After so long, everybody just inmates. [LINK]
