Behind the scenes of “Run This Town”
This behind the scenes look at Rihanna, Jay Z and Kanye West’s anti-climactic track ‘Run This Town” illustrates just how overblown Jay Z’s ego is. Somebody needs to remind the aging rapper that he doesn’t run sht in New York — the kids do. And even if he did run sht, could he have come up with a better theme song than this load of crap?
Celebs Out & About: Rihanna
Fashion icon Rihanna was spotted out and about with Jay Z’s nephew again. What’s going on here? Why is Rihanna babysitting this kid for Jay Z when she should be working on her comeback album?

Khloe Kardashian and Terrence J Suck Face On Premiere
I know you don’t care, but remember when Khloe Kardashian sent out that press release vehemently denying a relationship with rap artist Young Jeezy? supposedly, it was because Khloe and BET host Terrence J were busy sucking face behind the scenes. No one can believe that Khloe would kick Jeezy out of her bed for a pansy like Terrence J.
OBAMA FAIL: Obama Pulls Plug On White House Snitch Line
For those of you who are keeping track of Barack Obama’s ongoing goofs and missteps, here’s another one: The Obama administration has announced it has pulled the plug on the unconstitutional snitch line Flag@whitehouse.gov. So all those emails you sent about me will be bouncing back to you.
I feel sorry for those of you who actually sent in an email snitching on your fellow Americans thinking you were doing something.
Following a furor over how the data would be used, the White House has shut down an electronic tip box — flag@whitehouse.gov — that was set up to receive information on “fishy” claims about President Barack Obama’s health plan.
E-mails to that address now bounce back with the message: “The email address you just sent a message to is no longer in service. READ MORE…
Tyra Banks Challenges Women To Let Go Of Their Weave
Talk show Diva Tyra Banks plans to trade in her trademark weave for her own flowing locks and she’s challenging other women to do the same.
Tyra said:
“This season on The Tyra Show we’re taking it to the next level and getting more real than ever before by encouraging women everywhere to own and rock what they’ve got and be proud! For the Season 5 premiere, I will be doing just that – no fake hair, I’m rocking my REAL hair. This will all be going down on September 8, 2009, which we’re declaring National Real Hair Day! We welcome everyone to go natural with me!”
Tyra believes there is nothing sexy anymore about horse hair or Yaki no matter how you style it. It’s still horse hair.
Some of our women see weave as an absolute necessity because they can’t afford to get their hair done every week. Others have convinced themselves that their men like weave and that’s why they wear it. But every man I’ve spoken to laugh at weave wearing chicks behind their backs. They see hair weave as a sort of prosthesis for black women who can’t grow hair.
It diminishes our self worth and decreases our value. That’s why many brothers flaunt LSLH chicks (with real hair, not synthetic) in our faces. They want their kids to have good hair so they won’t have to use weave as a crutch all their lives.
The Domican salons are increasingly crowded with black women who have finally figured out that the key to growing hair is to stop abusing it with hair glue, flat irons, curling irons and harsh chemicals.
Tyra says it’s time to stop the madness! Wear your real hair and be proud!
