OBAMA FAIL: The Dollar Crashes

My apologies for my lack of coverage on Barack Obama’s train wreck of a presidency. But have you heard the news that our 401K’s are worth almost nil now? For the first time EVER, the mighty dollar has been upstaged by the yen and the euro as the currency favored by world banks moving us closer to Socialism.

Even as the dollar loses value to worlkd currency, Obama’s well-oiled printing presses continues printing cash in DC. I bet Obama is very excited to hear this news since he thinks America is too arrogant and we need to spread the wealth.

No wonder the lines at the banks are getting longer as nervous customers withdraw their life savings before disaster strikes.

Over the last three months, banks put 63 percent of their new cash into euros and yen — not the greenbacks — a nearly complete reversal of the dollar’s onetime dominance for reserves, according to Barclays Capital. The dollar’s share of new cash in the central banks was down to 37 percent — compared with two-thirds a decade ago.

Currently, dollars account for about 62 percent of the currency reserve at central banks — the lowest on record, said the International Monetary Fund. Read more…




 

Source: Sheree Whitfield Won’t Be Around Next Year

According to a well-connected industry source, RHOA cast member Sheree Whitfield won’t be back on the show next year.

This info comes to me from a credible source who said one of the cast members has to go to make room for new blood next season just as DeShawn Snow was let go from last season’s cast.

The booted member was to be newcomer Kandi Burrus, but recent developments changed all that. Now Kandi Burruss has emerged to be the breakout star on show, which isn’t sitting too well with NeNe Leakes who assumed the smack talking role from Sheree.

It seems that Sheree is biting the hand that fed her by refusing to wild out and stir up drama on the show this season because she wants to be taken seriously as a (lol) fashion designer.

But according to my source, Kandi has surprised the show’s producers by emerging as the star of the show. Kandi’s new track “Fly Above” from her upcoming album B.L.O.G. is selling well on iTunes and Amazon,com, and she has the most Twitter.com followers (100,000) out of all the RHOA cast members.

Industry people have expressed surprise that Kandi has come from the behind to become the sentimental favorite of the viewers. But that’s how it goes sometimes. Viewers get tired of all that fake drama.

Speaking of Kandi, you can download “Fly Above” from Amazon.com by clicking here or on iTunes.




 

Kanye West’s Fashion Line Kicks Rocks

If troubled rapper Kanye West didn’t know his career is on the rocks, he certainly knows now. Kanye’s Patelle Clothing line is officially dead before it ever got off the ground. You see, celebrity clothing lines are usually always backed by rich investors who act as silent partners behind the frontman celebrity endorser whose face is on all the ads.

But when said frontman celebrity endorser goes berserk and snatches the microphone from a white woman’s hand on national TV, well, that spells disaster in every language. Rich investors will pull out faster than 2-minute-man Sean Combs.

Poor Kanye thought his super celebrity powers would protect him from the wrath of a public fed up with his childish antics.

In other news, Lady Gaga, who dropped out of a tour with Kanye last week, will be going out on tour without him. They say tickets to her show are selling briskly, unlike the tickets to Kanye and GaGa’s tour.

Celebs Out & About

Pop icon Rihanna dressed down to run errands in NYC yesterday wearing fishnet stockings under ripped Dirty Couture jeans. Rihanna combed her blond extensions back and slicked the mess down with gel. But we hope she removes them completely and goes back to black. She looks much cuter.

Rapper 50 Cent strolls into a Hollywood Barnes & Nobles book store where he signed copies of his book. I don’t even know the name of it. But I know this thug didn’t write any book, lol.

Talk show Diva Tyra Banks showed off her bouncing and behavin’ hairdo yesterday in NYC during a photo shoot. Actually, that’s a lacefront, and yes I am quite disappointed in her after all that talk about black women wearing our own hair. But then again, she is mixed.

Convicted felon Chris Brown was spotted arriving at LAX yesterday. I guess the Richmond District attorney’s office gave him the day off from his hard labor picking up trash by the highway as part of his community service agreement.

Necole B’s Attorney Sends Bogus C&D Order

If you’ve been following the drama between myself and celebrity blogger Necole Bitchie, here’s the latest. The shook blogger took a gamble yesterday and had one of her attorney buddies send me a bogus cease & desist email ordering me to remove all posts pertaining to one “p/k/a Necole Bitchie (Miss Bitchie).” They didn’t even put her real name in the letter. What kind of foolishness is that?

Actually, the C&D was a photo scan of an actual letter that I’m guessing they intend to send through snail mail, though I doubt I’ll get it.

As I’ve told you bloggers in the past, receiving a cease & desist letter via email is not legal unless it’s sent certified through the mail. So you should not panic when you receive a C&D in this manner. Most attorneys think that sending C&D orders through email should be sufficient enough to scare the pants off of you. But Necole’s attorney obviously is not familiar with me or my blog.

If Kimora Lee’s prestigious 5th Avenue law firm couldn’t persuade me to remove a post about her, what makes this attorney think I’m going to budge on Necole’s post — and she’s a nobody?

Anyway, it’s obvious that Necole’s attorney didn’t even bother to authenticate Necole’s claim that I altered her email that she sent to an industry executive (hey, bloggers can be executives too). For instance, the attorney didn’t ask her to produce the original email so they could check the headers or anything. Had they done that they would have known that she was lying her azz off.

Anyway, I forwarded the foolishness to my attorney because she snacks on bogus C&D orders between meals. If any of you bloggers need a really good attorney, who is Harvard educated and knows her chit, let me know and I’ll pass on her info to you.

EDIT: I forgot to add that putting a legal disclaimer at the end of emails is not legally binding in most states. I thought all attorneys knew that?




 

Chilli’s Fake ‘Project’ Begins Shooting in Atlanta

Here we go, another fabricated reality TV series cluttering up the airwaves has begun shooting in Atlanta. I think by now the public knows that these shows are completely bogus, But I guess it’s the entertainment value that drives viewers to watch.

Rodney Ho of the AJC’s radio blog spoke with TLC member Rozonda “Chilli” Thomas about her new reality TV series titled ‘The Chilli Project’ in which she consults with a dating coach to find her a date with eligible bachelors. I’m assuming boxer Floyd Mayweather will be one of those “eligible bachelors.” The show will air on VH1 early next year.

According to Rodney, the show “won’t be “Flavor of Love” or its many variations. No bachelor mansion, no rose ceremonies, no hot tubs.”

He goes on to say that she recently hosted “a semi-manufactured event” at celebrity attorney Charles Mathis’ Buckhead mansion to help out her friend and Atlanta mayoral candidate Kasim Reed. Chilli and Kasim knew each other when they were in high school two decades ago.

Rodney interviewed Chilli about her show. He writes:

Chilli is no stranger to reality shows. She did one for UPN four years ago called “R U the Girl with T-Boz and Chilli.” The show was a bit bogus because it gave the impression they were seeking a replacement for Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes, who had died in a car accident a few years earlier. But the winner only got to sing one song with them and do one concert. Tionne “T-Boz” Watkins, her TLC singing mate, was recently on “Celebrity Apprentice” and barely made a peep. Read More…
