Celeb Style: Lady Gaga Destroys Another Hermès Birkin
We know pop singer Lady Gaga pulls these crazy stunts for attention, but it’s still a shock to see her destroy $20,000 classic handbags with a black magic marker or pierce them with studs. Especially when you consider that these bags are made by hand and you might wait a year to own one. It’s her money, but you just don’t treat iconic Hermès handbags like garbage.
The fashion world just had a heart attack—again. It wasn’t enough for Lady Gaga to stop hearts when she scribbled on her white Hermès Birkin with a black marker. This time, the pop singer has been photographed toting around a haphazardly studded Birkin. In an industry where the Birkin is worshipped and the five-figure bags often have a waitlist, this is tantamount to sacrilege. Source
Why Is This News?
The big news on social networking site Twitter.com today is, Sean Combs made his Twitter account private. If you follow Sean on Twitter, then you probably don’t even realize his account is private since you can still see his tweets if you’re logged in. The rest of us (who don’t follow his narcissistic tweets) are left wondering why this is news?
Diddy’s official Twitter account @iamdiddy has been been turned into a private account for which users must request access before being able to view Diddy’s tweets. It’s not clear whether the move was intentional on the part of the rapper or perhaps a result of a Twitter glitch, although we have yet to hear reports of any Twitter accounts being turned private by mistake.
The move is unusual in that Diddy has more than two million Twitter followers, as it’s very rare that high profile celebrities make their accounts invite-only. …those newcomers who want to begin following him will now need approval.
No word yet on the why or the how of it. User requests are, however, quickly being approved, based on our findings. Source
Here’s why Sean made his account private: it’s because his closest competition on Twitter — narcissists Oprah Winfrey and Ashton Kutcher, both have more followers than he does.
No doubt Sean read this story announcing Britney Spears as the celebrity with the most followers on Twitter. Even Ashton Kutcher’s wife, actress Demi Moore, has surpassed Diddy’s Twitter count with 2,737,453 followers to Diddy’s 2,611,197. On the list of Top 10 celebs with the most followers, Sean sits at #7 and he’s fading fast.
Behind the Scenes: DJ Khaled’s “All I Do is Win” Music Video
It was Memorial Day weekend in Miami, so you know that means everyday was a movie. Well, in this case, everyday was a music video as tons of videos were filmed all over Dade county. One of the music videos attracted a B, C and D-list crowd to the set. Everyone from Sean Combs, Cassie, Nicki Minaj, Fabolous, Busta Rhymes, Rick Ross, Dirty Money and others showed up to be seen & heard.
Do I detect a hint of jealousy from Diddy’s woman Cassie toward his new artist Nicki Minaj?
Fabolous responded to allegations that he sent his brother Ruggo Da Don to do his dirty work for him last week. According to Fabolous, it was Karma. Click here for the back story.
Rumor Control: Did Drake Get a Girl Pregnant?
Rumors are flying on the online micro-blogging service Twitter.com today, that allegedly — ALLEGEDLY — the rapper Drake has a baby on the way. The baby mama is supposedly none other than video vixen/exotic dancer Maliah Michel, who starred in Drake’s “Find Your Love” music video and was recently seen cuddled up with Drake at Atlanta’s Gold Room.
The evidence comes to us by way of a random statement uttered aloud by someone on the set of Maliah’s latest butt naked photo shoot. The person is alleged to have barked,
“DO NOT SMOKE WEED around Maliah and DO NOT offer her any DRINKS! She’s preggers.”
Somehow, I doubt this story is true. But we shall soon see.
Celebs Out & About
The blogs are all saying this dude is singer Kelly Rowland’s new man just because he was seen walking in her general vicinity on a beach in Miami on Sunday.
If that’s her man, then who is this guy — who was also seen in Kelly’s general vicinity on that same beach during Memorial Day weekend?

New Couple Alert?
Super Bowl champ Reggie Bush was pictured walking and shopping at Barney’s in Beverly Hills on Friday with a chick who bears a slight resemblance to his ex-girlfriend, Kim Kardashian. Maybe she is his new woman and not just a friend (we know Reggie still suffers from jungle fever).

PICS: Teyana Taylor’s Revealing Performance At Compound
Over the weekend I found out what socialite Teyana Taylor does for a living: she’s a singer. Who knew? I never hear anything of hers on the radio. Anyway, on Friday night, lifestyle blogger Tami hit me up (waking me from a good sleep) to tell me that blogger Necole Bitchie’s ex Teyana, Lisa Wu (RHOA) and Tey’s gawjus mama, Nikki, were all partying with the lesbuns at the “Girls in the Night” weekly Friday night party at Compound.
Girls in the Night actually paid Teyana to perform. Can you believe it? I don’t know if Lisa Wu was paid to host the party or if she’s just a regular at the lesbun parties. Are the rumors true about Lisa Wu and her hubby Ed…
Here’s how the night went down in Tami’s own words from her blog:
Later, Teyana hit the stage and performed two of her songs, Google Me and Drop it Lo. She shut it down and danced so hard her boobie popped out lol. It wasn’t bad but she just kept on dancing like nothing ever happened lol. Ofcourse the room being filled with alot of women, they loved it and went wild! She apologized to the crowd and kept it moving. A lil later a guy approached the stage and was not suppose to and got a lil roughed up by the bouncers, it was so funny because his plate of food went flying up in the air! I was dying laughing while I was filming and taking pics of Teyana performing.
