Socialite/TV personality Kim K debuted her new hair color over the weekend in Manhattan to the delight of the paparazzi who thought she was Beyonce promoting her new movie. When are pseudo celebrities going to start being more creative with their personal style and stop jacking others?

Celebrity Seed: Usher and Baby Cinco
When Usher’s wife, celebrity stylist Tameka Raymond, took to her Twitter account this weekend to announce that she was packing a bag for her and Usher’s son Cinco so Ush could take the 17-month-old to L.A. with him on Saturday, I knew the paparazzi were also reading, and would be ready to grab the cute pics.
Speaking of Tameka, quite a few fellow twitterers are questioning whether it’s even her tweeting at all. Rest assured that it is Tameka Raymond tweeting. Should Tameka put her Twitterberry down and back away slowly? You be the judge:
-
TamekaRaymond: @harveysan look queen whore #20094, leave my twits.. nit twit. go find Mike… lol so old I’ll put your bitchass over my knee..
harveysan: @tamekaraymond you talk mad shit bitch but it’s funny that you don’t got it in you to stand by your mouth, deleting messages…For shame.
TamekaRaymond: @JohnnyACE562 fuck you bitchass cat.. I’ll bitch slap you like one..haaa now here come the queen boys.
Obama says swine flu is no cause for alarm
Barack Obama attempted to quiet the swell of criticism about his open borders policy by diminishing the worldwide concern about a new strain of swine flu coming out of Mexico. Obama states the swine flu hysteria that’s sweeping the nation is “not a cause for alarm.” What is wrong with him?
Although swine flu has been around for decades, this is a deadly new strain of the virus that this country has not seen before. What part of ‘deadly’ is he not understanding?
This virus has been known to kill healthy people within 24 hours. The new strain has already caused over 1,600 infections and 68 deaths in Mexico. New cases are sprouting up in the United States and the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) has matched the strain to the one in Mexico.
If that’s not a cause for alarm then I don’t know what is. Why doesn’t Obama just step down now since he is clearly in over his head?

President Barack Obama said Monday that the threat of spreading swine flu infections is a cause for concern but “not a cause for alarm” as the United States undertook close border monitoring to contain it.
“The Department of Health and Human Services has declared a Public Health Emergency as a precautionary tool to ensure that we have the resources we need at our disposal to respond quickly and effectively,” Obama told a gathering of scientists, amid increasing worries worldwide about a possible pandemic.
The quickening pace of developments in the United States in response to some 1,600 swine flu infections in neighboring Mexico was accompanied by a host of varying responses around the world. The European Union advised against nonessential travel to the United States and Mexico, China, Taiwan and Russia considered quarantines and several Asian countries scrutinized visitors arriving at their airports.
READ MORE…Beyonce is one big joke at the box office
Thanks to loyal reader Christine for sending this link to a review for Beyonce’s movie “Obsessed” which opened nationally in theaters this weekend. I went to see “American Violet” at Atlantic Station last night and I didn’t see anyone going to see “Obsessed”. The theater staff I spoke with blamed the lack of interest in the movie on Beyonce — despite the fact that critics say actor Idris Elba shines in the movie.
From UK Metrolife:

Beyoncé Knowles is standing tall at the top of the US box office but her plans to become a giant of the big screen have been blasted as a joke by critics. Knowles latest on screen efforts took a pummelling from naysayers despite her stalking thriller Obsessed amassing an impressive £19.6million ($28.5m) at the weekend. The singer was blasted ‘laughable’, after her flick was dubbed a b-rate re-run of 1987′s Fatal Attraction. One acid-tongued reviewer said: ”Obsessed’ is your typical stalker thriller, but is horrifically written and terribly overacted. Beyonce Knowles’ performance is completely laughable.’
Another stepped up to put in the blows, telling: ‘It’s doubtful that ‘Obsessed’ will stick in the popular imagination for more than two weeks, because the movie is borderline ludicrous.’ The floundering Destiny’s Child singer, 27, plays the wife of a successful asset manager who has just received a promotion. But things go horribly wrong when a temp work turns on the screws and starts stalking him.
[LINK]Survivor recalls fatal Easter crash
Easter crash survivor Tracie Johnson, above left, poses in a portrait with her husband Morris Johnson Jr, her son Morris II, and her daughter Morgan who was killed in the Easter SUnday crash. Morgan’s brother Morris II was in another car and witnessed the accident that killed his sister and injured his mom.
From AJC.com:

It was a beautiful spring afternoon, and Tracie Johnson was cruising home from church in her pastor’s Volkswagen Beetle. She was driving the car home for him as a favor, her 6-year-old daughter Morgan in the back seat. Her husband and son were ahead of her in the family’s SUV. They were looking forward to Easter dinner. They were almost home.
In the opposite lane on Camp Creek Parkway was a Mercedes-Benz 320 carrying a family the Johnsons had briefly met at a birthday party months before. Speeding alongside the Mercedes, police say, was a BMW driven by a young woman on an errand to pick up ice cream and cake.
Their three paths crossed violently about 1:30 p.m. on April 12. The fiery crash left Johnson the sole survivor of the two cars that collided head-on and led to an intense 10-day search for the BMW driver, who left the scene.
On Monday, Tracie Johnson will be hoisted into a makeshift hospital bed and join her husband Morris Johnson II and their 11-year-old son, Morris III, at an East Point church to bid farewell to Morgan, whom family members called “Princess.”
The four passengers in the Mercedes, Robert and Delisia Carter and their two children, were buried a week ago. Aimee Michael, 22, who police say was the driver of the BMW, was arrested last week and remains in jail, facing five counts of vehicular homicide.
The Johnsons recalled the crash Friday afternoon in Tracie’s room at Grady Memorial Hospital. She had just finished a therapy session on her two broken legs and managed to smile while summoning nurses to bring pain medication. The fractured bones have required surgically implanted rods. Her hip has a pin. Her heel is fractured. Her collarbone broken. A smiley face balloon and one wishing “Get Well” floated behind her bed. READ MORE…
