FanMAIL: Zonnique and Her Dad Zeboe

Yesterday, we posted pics from Zonnique's 13th birthday party. Someone left a comment asking who Zonnique's dad was. A loyal reader, who asked to remain anonymous, sent in these pics of Zonnique, Tiny, Zeboe and Zeboe's fiance Cheryl.

She said Zeboe attended his daughter's birthday party on Sunday with his fiance Cheryl and 'Nique's little brother Zonnie, who is being held by his sister in the very last photo of yesterday's post.

Here is a picture of Zonnique and her dad. Please post and correct your bloggers by letting them know that Zeboe is very active in his daughter's life and the ENTIRE extended family has a wonderful relationship.

Is Obama the Dumbest President Ever?

Anyone who's seen the movie "Men in Black" knows how to pronounce the word "Orion" as Or-EYE-on instead of Or-EE-on. Even if you're not a Will Smith fan -- as Barack Hussein Obama claims to be -- you should know how to pronounce the name of the company that you're speaking at.

Obama mispronounces the word "Orion" three times in this video that was shot during his visit to the Orion Energy Systems offices yesterday. This is more proof that Obama slept through classes at uh, uh, Harvard.

Rihanna’s Hairline Has Seen Better Days

No, these aren't pics of Rihanna attending a funeral. She is actually house hunting, according to X17 Online.

We didn't believe the initial reports that Rihanna dumped Chris Brown in an effort to save her career. But now that we've seen these pictures, we believe it!

We also received word from a credible source that Rihanna was given an ultimatum by her bosses at her record label: either dump bish boy or be dropped like a hawt Kanye track.

So now Rihanna walks around looking and acting like a drug addict who's struggling to kick her habit. We don't think we've ever seen her look this bad. Even in her pon de forehead days she didn't look this sick. We're praying for Rihanna.

Now That Damon is Down and Out, Rachel Roy Wants a Divorce

Does former music mogul Damon Dash have any luck with women? Now we know why we've been seeing Damon Dash playing the single father role lately. Fellas, stop wifin' these hos. This is yet another example of treacherous gold diggers who only want you when you're making that paper.

From NY Daily News:

    He's got no money, but he sure does have mo' problems.

    Roc-A-Fella Records and Rocawear co-founder Damon Dash has been slapped with divorce papers by wife Rachel Roy, the Daily News has learned.

    The stunning fashion designer piled onto Dash's already sizable stack of lawsuits when she filed for divorce from her husband of four years this month in Manhattan Supreme Court.

    Ed Hayes, a lawyer for Roy, declined comment, and a Dash spokeswoman did not return calls or e-mails.

Morning Wood: Sandhurst Miggins

I rarely sit and watch reality TV, but this weekend I finally got to watch the new season of my favorite reality series Real Housewives of New York City, which was followed by Make Me A Supermodel on Bravo.

I am really, really impressed with model Sandhurst Miggins on the show (I know. I am so late). Sandhurst was born and raised on the island of Tobago, and later moved to Ft. Lauderdale, Fla. He got his start in modeling when he was picked out of a crowd during Trinidad and Tobago's inaugural Fashion week and asked to walk in a runway show.

Sandhurst is a "classically trained" dancer who studied ballet. As a result, Sandhurst has a nice walk, a hawt bod and supreme confidence! He was born to model. But since we're talking about Bravo network we won't waste our time thinking he will win it all this season.

Despite his denials, we suspect that Sandhurst is gay. But we picked Sandhurst as our Morning Wood today because he's beautiful!

FanMail: Is Lewis Hamilton Being Singled out Unfairly?

Loyal reader Cunningham wrote:

I know you prolly don't follow Formula 1 racing, but i know you know lewis hamilton, the F1 champ who is young and black, kinda like tiger woods. either way, Formula 1 is for some reason changing the rules for the new season. The rule makes it so that the F1 championship goes to the racer with the most wins instead of the most combined points. By those standards Lewis Hamilton wouldn't be champ right now. It's just kinda suspicious how they are all of a sudden changing the rules now that lewis hamilton has become so dominant in the sport. Kinda like how the PGA tour decided to alter the courses when Tiger was blowing out the competition. I'm not crying racism, but I just think that people should know what's going on.

Obama nominates deputy at the Treasury Department

In the face of mounting criticism of his administration's failure to address the unfilled treasury positions, Obama finally starts hiring.

    President Barack Obama has announced a deputy for Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner as the White House looks to add senior officials to help the government's effort to aid the staggering economy.

    Obama on Monday announced Neal Wolin as deputy treasury secretary. The White House also announced that Lael Brainard would be the department's top official for international affairs and that Stuart Levey would stay on as the top counter terrorism official.

    Their appointments round out four of the five top jobs at treasury, if the Senate confirms them.

    Many jobs at the department have gone unfilled, leading to criticism of the administration.

My Readers Don’t Miss a Thing

We like V-103's Elle Duncan, but according to a longtime loyal reader, Elle committed a fashion faux pas by wearing the same thing to two industry events. Poor Elle thought if she put 4 months between the last time she wore this red satin frock, no one would notice:

Hey!!! Hope all is well!!!!! So..... I was on your page and saw Elle Duncan's photos from Friday. The dress looked very familiar. Then I realized she wore it to Ryan Cameron's bowling challenge in November. Should we do a "when did she wear it best?"....... Elle should know better than to be photographed in the same exact thing twice. She should've at least changed the shoes or something!!!

PICS: Ray J Live At Velvet Room (3/20)

Ray J poses with AG Entertainment's Alex Gidewon who makes it possible for Sandrarose.com to get the exclusive Velvet Room pics first!

It's easy to see why Beyonce is jealous of former Destiny's Child member LeToya Luckett. She wears her real hair and Beyonce doesn't. She has a really nice personality and Beyonce doesn't. She can sing and Beyonce can't. She's very pretty in a natural way while Beyonce's image is completely rebuilt out of old body parts. I would hate her too if I was Bey.

Unlike Mya, singer LeToya Luckett was too smart to be photographed with her lips anywhere near Ray J's in the VIP at the Velvet Room. She stayed about a good foot away from Ray J when she give him her number. A friend was just asking me who LeToya is in Atlanta seeing becuase she's here so often. We have someone on the case finding out now.

Celebs Out & About

Taraji P. Henson and Brian J. White were among the celebrities and industry professionals who showed up for the final night of celebrity bowling at 300 on Sundays. There will be no more star-studded industry parties at 300 bowling alley. The new owner decided not to renegotiate the contract for the Sunday night "Chill Spot" parties thrown by Taiye, Chaka Zulu, Jamal Coleman and others. ExclusiveAccess.net was there to bring us the pics of the finale on Sunday night.

Actors Brian J. White and Taraji Henson came out to support Chaka Zulu's last industry night at 300 Bowling. Brian and Taraji are in town working on Tyler Perry's latest film project

Friend to Sandrarose.com, Tameka Foster-Raymond came out to support Chaka and DTP's final night hosting the Chill Spot at 300. Doesn't she look pretty?

Ludacris came out to support his manager Chaka Zulu of Ebony Son Management

Taraji has grown close to Chaka Zulu's son who he may be calling stepmom soon. The last time I saw this kid he was knee high to a grasshopper!


Fabolous posed with Toya, left, and a friend



Jamal Coleman, B.Cox and guest



Rapper Jadakiss


These are the guys responsible for the now defunct industry parties at 300 bowling alley on Sunday nights. The new owner decided not to renew their contract because he is going for a more family-oriented atmosphere on Sunday nights.

Celebrity Seed and New Music from Monica!

R&B Diva Monica reached out to us over the weekend with these great photos of her son Lil Rock imitating his dad Big Rock.

Mo wrote, "This is Big Rock's face all day. Lol."

She also sent this photo of her brother Montez, who I thought was baby Romelo at first glance. The resemblance is uncanny!

Mo wrote:

This is my brother Montez at the same age as Romelo and both their eyes are grey. Its amazing how genes jump around. Okay, I won't bore you with family photos anymore. Lol.

And thanks to loyal reader Janie, aka Baby_J for sending in this new Monica track that leaked online over the weekend. The track is titled "Once in a Lifetime." Don't know who produced it or even if it's on Mo's upcoming album, but the track is beautiful!

Rap artist T.I.'s children Zonnique, 13, and Domani, 8, celebrated their birthdays with friends and family at Cascade Family Skating Rink yesterday (3/22). T.I.'s friends Usher, Yung Joc, Soulja Boy, Young Dro, Killer Mike and more turned out for the joyous occasion. Our friend H., who organized the party, made sure Prince Williams of ATLPICS.net was on the scene to bring us great shots from the party!

Video: Obama is Mortgaging Away Our Children’s Future

****************************************************
Obamaholics please pass on this post. I get sick and tired of reading your e-mails and your comments whenever I am critical of your boy, and I am afraid this is going to be one of those times.

~borrowed from Field Negro
****************************************************

More and more former Kool Aid drinkers have put their cups down to join the swelling army of protests against the Obama administration's reckless spending in Washington. It's clear to them that the spiraling economy is nowhere near the top of Obama's list of priorities.

According to reports, 18 of 19 Treasury department jobs remain unfilled. This at a time when ex-Wall Street employees are looking for steady work. Tim Geithner's position is the only spot out of nineteen to be filled after two months, which makes one wonder what is Obama and Geithner trying to hide?

Rather than deal with that pesky economy problem, Obama and Geithner have shoveled billions into AIG's coffers while Americans are expected to settle for a measly $13 a week in their paychecks.

Oh, Obama will eventually get around to fixing the economy, but first he must satisfy his ego's need to be a celebrity, appearing on late night talk shows while Americans continue to lose their jobs and homes.

So much for hitting the ground running when he got into office.

Who’s That Girl?

They say this is who Chris Brown left Rihanna for. All I can say is maybe Chris Brown isn't the dork that we thought he was. Her name is Natasha Ellie and she is beautiful! See more pics of Natasha on her Myspace page.

    Chris Brown cheated on Rihanna with a model. The 19-year-old singer - who has been charged with felony assault and making criminal threats following his alleged assault of Rihanna last month - was having a relationship with 27-year-old brunette beauty Natasha Ellie.

    It has been claimed Natasha sent the three-page text message - initially reported to be from someone who Chris "had a previous sexual relationship with" - which sparked Chris and Rihanna's argument, during which he allegedly punched, bit and choked the singer until she was unconscious.

    A source said: "Rihanna has been having problems with this girl for a long time. Rihanna even reached out to Natasha, but she denied everything. Have you heard the song "Emergency Room" by Rihanna? In the lyrics she mentions finding Natasha's number in Chris' jeans. Rihanna didn't write the song, but she met with the songwriter and told her how she felt and what she was going though and they came up with it." READ MORE...

Comments Off on White House Bars White Press From Black Press Awards Dinner

White House Bars White Press From Black Press Awards Dinner

I saw this story earlier this morning on another blog, but I didn't read the post. So I didn't know that Barack Hussein Obama was being given an award by a black press organization. The headline read "Obama White House bars press from press award ceremony" and now it all makes sense.

You know if Barack cut the fool on Jay Leno, he damn sure will forget his manners at an all-black dinner. So he doesn't want any white press around to capture all his gaffes on tape.

Thanks to loyal reader Ebony H. for the tip!

Strip Club Holds Job Fair


Photo illustration

I was just discussing this subject with my GGF the other day. Jobs are hard to come by with the worsening economy, but one industry that is rarely ever affected is the gentlemen's club industry where women can easily make $500 or more a night. Even if a man is out of work he will still treat himself to an occasional lap dance.

If you look like Beyonce or Gabrielle Union and can work a pole you will never be out of work. One strip club in Rhode Island is even holding a job fair to attract out-of-work women who might otherwise never consider dancing for tips.

    Hoping to take advantage of Rhode Island's floundering economy, owners of the Foxy Lady strip club in Providence plan to hold a job fair on Saturday.

    They say they're looking to fill around 30 positions, from strippers and waitresses to disc jockeys and bartenders, at that club and two others in Massachusetts.

    "I need more managers, I need more competent staff, and I need more attractive waitresses to go along with the ones I have right now," said co-owner Tom Tsoumas.

    The Providence club isn't immune from the recession but is still drawing customers willing to drink and pay for lap dances, said manager Bob Travisono.

    "It's taken a hit," he said. "It's not as bad as restaurants and stuff like that. In times like this, they seem to drink their sorrows away."

    Tsoumas said he hopes some who might shun strip clubs when the economy is good might consider shedding their clothes now -- or at least working as a floor host or bartender. [LINK]

Cover Parade

Here's a little Morning Wood for you ladies (and mens). Model Roberto Bolle flexes his muscles on the cover of Vanity Fair Italy.

Meanwhile, Barack Hussein Obama, who thinks he's a celebrity, became the first sitting president to laugh it up on a late night talk show while Americans are losing their jobs and their homes. This guy is a joke.

Outrage: Obama Makes Fun of Special Olympics and Kids With Hydrocephalus

Yesterday, Barack Hussein Obama taped an appearance on “The Tonight Show” with Jay Leno -- without his trusty teleprompter -- and the result was an unmitigated disaster!

First, Obama made fun of the Special Olympics then he made a gaffe by repeating a Jay Leno joke about "water head" dogs, and even added his own joke saying, "it's not a "water head." (Laughter.) That sounds like a scary dog. (Laughter.) Sort of dripping around the house." (Laughter)

Keep laughing O. You're gonna laugh yourself right out of the White House in 2012. Go here to view the video of Obama's disastrous appearance on Jay Leno.

The term "water head" is used by the insensitive (and morons) to describe children with water on the brain, or in medical terminology: hydrocephalus.

Beyoncé Cheating On Jay Z Already?

From Page Six:

When Beyoncé (above) popped into Patricia Field's Bowery boutique where The Post snapped her emerging from a shopping visit the other day, she wasn't shy about throwing some real money around, recession or not. Our source reports that "she spent $11,000 in just 20 minutes." Mrs. Jay-Z made sure to pick up the essential evening wear including "a black, diamond-studded bra."

OK I'm convinced that Vivica A. Fox has a tranny double masquerading as her in Hollywood. In these pics she looks like the vivacious aunt Viv we're accustomed to. But earlier this week at another event, we could swear she was a glammed up Tyler Perry. So what gives? Aunt Viv attended the 3rd Annual Avant Garde Fashion Event And "Shark City" After Party in L.A. last night.

Yesterday Alicia Keys and her mom Terri visited Washington D.C. schools at the request of the First Lady Michelle Obama. How anyone can call Alicia 'black' after seeing her mom simply mystifies me.

Actor/director Spike Lee took his family to the "West Side Story" Broadway Revival Opening Night in NYC last night.

Actor Taye Diggs got a jungle fever side eye glance from a woman at the "West Side Story" Broadway Revival Opening Night in NYC last night. That look is also what intellects refer to as a "knowing glance." Broadway dimmed its lights in memory of Natasha Richardson, who died Wednesday of traumatic brain injuries after a fall on a ski slope in Canada.

Police Investigate Double Mother-Daughter Homicides

Prince George's County police are investigating double mother-daughter homicides in the same area. The two cases are a top priority as tensions and fear rise.

    The Loftons, Karen and Karissa, were the first, shot in late January in their Largo home. Then on Monday, less than a half mile away, the bodies of Deloris and Ebony Dewitt were found in a burning car, one in the trunk, the other in the back seat.

    "To me, the feeling is there's just got to be some kind of connection," said Michael Jeter, 45, a neighbor of the Dewitts.

    "Everybody in this neighborhood is in fear right now," said William Mackall, 62, who lives several blocks from the Dewitt home. "I have kids, but thank God, just boys, no girls."

    At a news conference Tuesday night, police said they could not rule out the possibility that a serial killer was responsible for the slayings. No physical evidence linked the killings, but police said the parallels were disturbing and went beyond proximity: In each case, the mothers were in their 40s and the daughters were teenagers. They were found dead early in the morning, on a Monday.

    One other commonality that emerged yesterday - Karen Lofton, 45, and Deloris Dewitt, 43, were both nurses - appeared to be mere coincidence, police said. Lofton had just finished her first day of orientation to be a school nurse in Largo. Dewitt had worked at a nursing home in Clinton for the past nine years. READ MORE...

Mya Wants You To Know She’s Not F***ing For Tracks

I just received this email from publicity honcho Barry Florence. It seems we misinterpreted these photos of Mya sticking her tongue down Gucci Mane's throat:

    In a statement released today, Mya Harrison and Radric Davis aka Gucci Mane said “We are friends and artistic colleagues, nothing more.” The two were photographed together at Gucci Mane’s mixtape event and this past weekend’s homecoming parties along with several other attending artists and celebrities.

    “I am offended that pictures and assertions have been levied against me without consideration for the truth and how it affects me, Mya said. Gucci and I are friends and he is on one of my new songs soon to be released. That’s why I was in Atlanta this weekend – celebrating his return and recording our new collaboration. To our friends, fans, and supporters – thank you for your concern and I apologize for the inconvenience of having to deal with these bogus rumors.”

    Hajji Harrison, Mya’s manager, expressed genuine concern regarding the rumors. “We want all of Mya’s focus and energy to be on her new project – not on defending false accusations about her personal life. Her new CD is extremely hot and fresh. Gucci’s lyricist flow is also hot and fresh and we are pleased that he did a record with her.

Michelle Obama, Alicia Keys Visits D.C. Schools

First Lady Michelle Obama continues her official duties as the wife of the president by visiting more D.C. area schools. When is she going to leave D.C. and come visit a school or two here we wonder?

I think it was a smart idea for Michelle to let White House Social Secretary Desiree Rogers tag along with her as she visited schools today (that's right girl, don't let her out of your sight).
