More Celebrity New Year’s Eve Pics
Pseudo singer Keri Hilson celebrated New Year’s at Karu & Y nightspot in Miami where she gave a middle fanga salute to all her hatahs. Keri was the subject of much hate on the blogs in 2009. So you really can’t blame her for giving her haters the For U. Unfortunately, 2010 won’t be much better for her unless she suddenly and miraculously learns how to sing in key.
Singer Akon looked so fine in his Armani suit down in Miami when he helped his artist Lady GaGa ring in the New Year.
Former TLC member T-Boz spent her New Year weekend bowling with the Traxx Girls lesbuns at 10 Pin Alley at Atlantic Station. Oh, you didn’t hear that T-Boz dumped her linebacker boyfriend Takeo Spikes and tipped over to the other side? Well, you didn’t hear it from me.
This is the custom whip that T-Boz pulled up in. I would be lying if I said I didn’t envy those rims.
It was a ghey fest on the set of BET’s 106 & Park last week as Trey Song and Omarion battled it out for the Teh Gheyest male singer of the year.
Honestly, Trey doesn’t help his situation when he takes pics like this.
How U doooinnnn?

Secret Service Looking Into Obama Effigy Hanging
The Secret Service are investigating a report that an effigy of U.S. president Barack Obama was found hanging by a noose from a building in Plains, Georgia this weekend.
Secret Service spokesman Ed Donovan told The Associated Press that the large black doll was found Saturday morning along Main Street in the small town of Plains.
According to footage from WALB-TV, the doll was hanging by a noose in front of a red, white and blue sign that says “Plains, Georgia. Home of Jimmy Carter, our 39th President.” A witness told the television station that the doll wore a sign with Obama’s name on it.
Donovan said the doll was removed Saturday. He declined further comment. Read More…
Mission Impossible: Seeking Straight Black Males in Atlanta
I found this pic of this seemingly macho black man on Ms. Wanda’s blog yesterday. To some of you, he may seem like the hunk of your dreams, who simply oozes sex appeal.
Unfortunately, this brotha likes the same thing you like.
Pop the hood to see why…
Toya left a grown man for this boy
I didn’t tell you guys about the evening I spent watching a rehearsal for Tiny and Shamra Rodriguez’s girl group the OMG Girlz, which includes Tiny’s daughter Zonnique. For those who don’t know, Shamra is the mother of the sisters in the group, Bahja and Lourdez.
Last month I was invited to a studio on the west side to watch the OMG Girlz give a private audition for BET (I guess they’re getting their own reality show). Tiny was there putting the girls through their paces as they warmed up before the show.
After the group warmed up, Lil Wayne’s daughter Reginae, who is the most talkative in the group, entertained the adults with a story about how some boy pushed her down at school that week. I wasn’t really paying attention until she mentioned that some guy wanted to smack the kid up for pushing her.
The dude actually ordered Reginae to point the little boy out to him. Naturally, it piqued my interest when she mentioned that the dude was “my mommy’s boyfriend.”
I had several questions — all of which I kept to myself. The biggest question on my mind: what was a grown man doing at an elementary school picking on small kids? I just assumed that Toya’s new beau would be a grown man considering that she just got out of a relationship with a grown man.
To me it just made sense that Toya would leave a grown man for another grown man. You know what I’m sayin’? I just can’t see James Hardy on school grounds trying to push a little kid’s face in.
This was before I knew that Toya’s new man was Memphitz, aka “Sexi face”, some unknown rapper who’s probably only using her to get some shine. This is the boy who bought Toya that pink gun that was all over twitter last year.
I have to remember that Toya is kinda young in the mind herself. Peep the tattoo she got on her finger to remind herself that she’s in love. You know how kids are. They aren’t entirely convinced that they’re in love unless they mutilate their bodies.
At least she’s in love until she finds out that ol’ boy is stepping out on her already. This, according to a loyal reader who knows Memphitz well.
Celebrities Ring in the New Year
We don’t have much in the way of real celebrities anymore now that psuedo singers and reality TV personalities have just about taken over. The music industry realizes that the genre is dying and have quickly switched their focus to white celebs like Lady GaGa and the newcomer white rapper Ke$ha.
What few celebs we still have left celebrated their New Year in the typical fashion. Beyonce spent the week in St. Barths with Jay Z on the French Riviera. She performed a New Year’s Eve concert for the wealthy elite who could afford to be gouged on the ticket prices.
By the way, some of you may recall me mentioning Beyonce’s stage manager/tour director(?) Kim Burse whom I had dinner with a while back (follow her on Twitter). Well, Kim is the one who auditioned and hired Beyonce’s lesbun lady band. So you can thank her for the guitarist chick with all the crazy tats.
I told you that convicted woman beater Chris Brown would be partying on a private yacht near Miami Beach.
Brown and Bow Wow hung pretty tight the whole weekend.
At one point, Brown’s camp got a little nervous and invited a buxom beauty to take pics with Brown to throw off the rumor mongers.
It didn’t work
Unfortunately, the other celebs I mentioned didn’t bother to show up to the private yacht party.
According to my friend, Akon’s brother Bu Thiam, VP of Def Jam, who invited me to Miami for the Lady GaGa concert — only Brown, LisaRaye, Polow Da Don, and new group The Rich Girls (one of whom is pictured above with Chris) showed up to party on the boat. Bu blamed the cold weather in Miami for the low turnout. But everyone still had fun as much fun as one can have with a convicted woman beater on board.
I also asked Bu about the incident involving Lady GaGa. The tabloids said she took a nasty spill while performing her New Year’s Eve concert at the Fountainebleu hotel on Miami Beach. Bu said she did fall, but the blood was fake. “She just be on her artist sh*t. GaGa is an artist. You know how artists are. They just do crazy sh*t. She’s all good,” said Bu, who hung out with rapper Young Jeezy all weekend in Miami.

Another Dumb Rapper Gets Locked Up
According to WSB-TV, a local rapper/producer is behind bars charged with the shooting death of a friend. Police say Damon Martin, 35, of Detroit, was shot and killed early Friday morning at the sprawling Hampton, GA home of local rapper Shawty Redd.
Redd, real name Demetrius Stewart, 28, initially told cops the New Year’s Day shooting was accidental. But following an investigation, cops leaned the shooting was the result of an argument which turned physical.
Shawty Redd is mostly known for his production work on Young Jeezy’s albums and for producing Snoop Dogg’s hit “Sexual Seduction” off his ‘Ego Trip’ CD.
If you recall, Redd took to the blogs two years ago to complain that he never got paid for producing tracks on Jeezy’s mixtape and CDs.
Redd is currently being held in the Henry County jail without bond. A preliminary hearing scheduled for Saturday is reset to Jan. 12. His only hope for freedom is if his legal counsel can convince a jury that the shooting was in self defense.
4-Year-Old Killed in Church By Stray Bullet On NYE
A 4-year-old boy was killed by a stray bullet during a late night New Year’s Eve church service in Decatur, GA — a suburb of Atlanta.
Lloyd Phipps, senior pastor at the Church of God of Prophecy near Decatur, told the AJC that Marquel Roberts was sitting beside his mother playing a hand held video game while waiting for a live concert to begin at 12:30 a.m.
“We heard a loud pop, which we now assume was when the bullet came through the roof,” Phipps said.
Pastor Phipps said the child fell to the floor and at first seemed unconscious before awakening and crying. Members of the congregation prayed over the boy and then returned to watching the concert while an ambulance raced Marquel to a local hospital where he later died.
Church members were still enjoying the concert at 3:30 a.m. when they learned of the boys death. DeKalb police investigators returned to the church the next day and found the bullet’s point of entry in the roof. Police believe someone fired a celebratory shot in the air and it fell through the roof on its way back down. They have no suspects.
“It’s one of those things that you just cannot make any sense out of,” Phipps said. “This lady took her kid to church, which is the right thing to do. And her son got killed because of someone’s irresponsible behavior.”
