PICS: Gillette Men of Style
Last night, super producer & songwriter Sean Garrett called to say he was honored, along with V103′s Frank Ski, left, and Ryan Cameron, right, as one of Gillette’s Men of Style at a classy event held at the Geisha House. The splashy affair was hosted by actress Vivica Fox and male socialite Fonzworth Bentley.
I told Sean my invite must have gotten lost in the mail. At any rate, the finest gentleman in the industry put on their best threads for this event. Congrats to all the real men who were honored!

Will The Real Nicki Minaj Please Stand Up?
I told y’all Nicki Minaj was a fraud! Before she was a Barbie, she was wearing her brother’s clothes and stalking rapper Remy Ma! Y’all gon’ learn to listen to your auntie when I tell you something.
I saw this video years ago when it first came out on YouTube, and at the time I remember feeling sad for this young, misguided Dom. Now it turns out the young, misguided Dom is none other than rap fraud Nicki Minaj who is signed to Lil Wayne’s Young Money Records. No wonder she comes off as such a fake to me.
How can this tramp stunt like she’s a STUD, then call herself a Barbie doll just to get a record deal? Y’all, please [email_link] everywhere so the young Hip Hop heads can see that she’s nothing but a fraud!

Celebs Out & About
Pop singer Rihanna was spotted out & about with her HLF Melissa Forde last night in LA. Mel looks so proud (I know I would be). LOVE RiRi’s cropped leather jacket!
All heads turned when Rihanna strolled into Madison Square Garden to attend the Portland Trailblazers Vs. New York Knicks game yesterday.
She was a vision of loveliness sitting courtside chewing gum.
Music mogul Sean Combs was looking right in all black at his ‘Last Train To Paris’ album release party at mur.mur last night at the Borgata Hotel in Atlantic City. So when did he have time to fly to the Dominican Republic for Jay Z’s 40th birthday bash?

BeBe Winans Cleared of Domestic Violence Charges
This is great news from Singersroom.com:
Gospel recording star and BET ‘Sunday Best’ judge BeBe Winans has been exonerated of charges stemming from an alleged altercation with his ex-wife Debra Winans.
Judge Gloria Dumas of the General Sessions Court for Metropolitan Nashville-Davidson County signed an order on Friday, December 4, 2009, dismissing all charges with prejudice. With this order, this domestic matter is over and cannot be reopened.
“This has been a trying year, beginning with the death of my father, ” BeBe Winans said in a statement shortly after being cleared of charges. “Even though this allegation has affected not just me, but also the entire Winans family, my children and certain aspects of my career, I chose to stay quiet because I knew the truth. To be exonerated of all charges shows the power of trusting in God, and is a wonderful Christmas gift for me and my children.”
I Was Right After All: Tiger Was High On Prescription Drugs
As I told you last week, golf superstar Tiger Woods was incapacitated by prescription drugs in the early morning hours of Friday, Nov. 27 — not by a golf wedge wielded by his wife as some of you insist on believing.
From TMZ.com:
Tiger Woods was admitted to Health Central Hospital the day after Thanksgiving as an overdose.
Sources connected with the hospital tell TMZ the admissions chart lists “OD” and that he was having trouble breathing.
As a trained nurse, I know signs and symptoms very well, and Tigers symptoms were consistent with an overdose of pain killers and sleeping pills, not an assault with a golf club (where are the head wounds?).
it made complete sense to me that Woods’ wife Elin Nordegren would bust out his car windows to get him out of the SUV because he was completely disoriented by the drugs and had no clue where he was going at that time of night.
Woods was probably disoriented as a result of hypoxia — or lack of oxygen to the brain due to over medicating with sleeping pills. Hospital personal intubated Woods (pass an oxygen tube down his throat) to assist his breathing.
Woods was taking prescription Ambien for sleep and the narcotic pain killer Vicodin at the time.
Instead of ridiculing Elin or accusing her of spousal abuse, we should be thanking her for saving his life.
In more Tiger Woods news, apparently, his mother-in-law — Elin’s mother — who just arrived in the country last Friday, was transported to the same hospital last night where Woods was treated after his little accident.
Paramedics responded to a 911 call around 2:55 a.m. last night at Tiger Woods’ address.
There was also a rumor circulating yesterday that Elin moved out of the home she shared with Woods and their two children. But there is no confirmation of that rumor.
So far 10 women have come forward claiming to have had extra-marital affairs with Woods.

Beyonce Throws Jay Z Gangster Style 40th Birthday Bash
Beyonce helped her man Jay Z celebrate his 40th birthday in the Dominican Republic with a 50s gangster style birthday bash last night. She was the guest of honor along with Jigga’s mom Gloria.
According to Marie Claire.CO.UK, his well-heeled guests included Oprah Winfrey, Mary J Blige, Alicia Keys, P Diddy, Kate Hudson, Ne-Yo, M.I.A., Kanye West and Lil Wayne. Sean Combs and Kanye performed during dinner and actress Gwyneth Paltrow and rocker Chris Martin of Colplay sent birthday greetings via video.
After dinner, guests were treated to a 40s-style synchronized swimming show followed by a fireworks display.
The only guest missing from the merry shindig was golfer Tiger Woods who has his own problems to deal with.
Guests dined on caviar washed down with expensive Perignon champagne.
There are no pics yet because even the biggest stars were asked to leave their cell phones at the door to prevent them from Twittering pics to Jay Z’s fans who helped make him what he is today.
