Pau Gasol: Kobe Byant is selfish
The hapless LA Lakers (21-10) continue to spiral out of control after being routed by the San Antonio Spurs 97-82 last night.
Fingers immediately began pointing at conceited Lakers star guard Kobe Bryant who fired up 27 desperation shots at the basket. Center Pau Gasol, who only made nine field goal attempts during the game, couldn’t hold his tongue any longer.
“We didn’t play a smart game, put it that way,” Gasol said. ” … We have to recognize what’s going on and understand what our strengths are against certain opponents, and try to exploit them.”
“It can’t be an individual effort from nobody,” Gasol added. “It has to be altogether on a string, like a family.” Source

Vick Falls Flat After Obama Jinxes His Team With That Phone Call
Just a few days after U.S. President Barack Obama placed a phone call to Philadelphia Eagles’ owner Jeffrey Lurie praising Michael Vick, the Eagles suffered a stunning loss to the Minnesota Vikings.
Rookie 3rd string quarterback Joe Webb led the Minnesota Vikings to a shocking 24-14 upset win over the hapless Eagles who were still soaring high after that come-from-behind win over the New York Giants last week.
In the first Tuesday night NFL game since 1946, Eagles quarterback Michael Vick fell flat on his face as he was sacked six times by the Vikings’ marauding defense.
Subbing for the injured Brett Favre, Webb threw for 195 yards and ran for a touchdown against the Eagles (10-5).
Vick threw for 263 yards and ran for two touchdowns last night, but it wasn’t enough as the Vikings (6-9) rolled over him.
Vikings RB Adrian Peterson ran for 118 yards and a TD as the Vikings snapped the Eagles’ three-game winning streak.
Next up for the Eagles is the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday, Jan. 2. If Obama calls again, maybe Lurie shouldn’t answer the phone.
TLC’s Chilli wants a Religious man with a high sperm count
She’s tried every other man that crosses her path (including yours), but now TLC’s Chilli has lowered her standards a bit.
In the 2nd season of her fake dating show, What Chilli Wants, Chilli will put another round of star-crossed men through their paces to see which one has what it takes to win her heart.
The show is purely for entertainment purposes. But in real life, Chilli tells Popeater that she wants a religious man with a high sperm count.
After an unsuccessful attempt to find her dream man, TLC singer Chilli is back for a second season of her hit VH1 reality show, ‘What Chilli Wants.’ But this time around, she’s ditching the blind dates, noting she keeps her 13-year-old son Tron in her mind as she searches for Mr. Right.
“I can’t imagine bringing someone around my son who is not an extraordinary man. He already has an active father [ex-husband Dallas Austin], so whoever is going to be my husband has to be a good figure for my son and add to our family,” she tells PopEater.
But with her biological clock ticking, Chilli admits she’s hoping to find a man soon because she wants more children. “I’m straight up and told all the guys this season I wanted kids. It probably made some of them nervous, but it shouldn’t. I just need to know if we’re on the same page or not because I want more kids,” she adds.
Nicki Minaj Covers KING Magazine
Rap newcomer Nicki Minaj covers the new issue of KING magazine dressed like — what else? — a high maintenance stripper.
Inside the covers, Nicki muses about making the transition to the silver screen — “You know, like how Jada Pinkett Smith did in Jason’s Lyric.”
Bwahaha! Keep dreaming, Nicki. You probably don’t have the skills to act your way out of a paper bag. Can you even read?
KING: What would be your dream role?
Nicki Minaj: I’d like to play someone in a Tim Burton movie, where I get dressed up and painted and crazy.
You kind of do that now.
Then I want to be able to do some action stuff, like Angelina Jolie.
Like in Salt?
Yes! And then I’d like to just play a regular girl who, you know, is facing the world. Something really sentimental and organic, that girls all around the world can identify with. You know, how Jada Pinkett Smith did in Jason’s Lyric.

Eddie Murphy’s Ex, Nicole, blew through $15 Million and is now broke
When gold digging goes horribly wrong:
According to the current issue of the National Enquirer, Eddie Murphy’s ex-wife, Nicole Murphy, has already blown through her $15 million divorce settlement, and is now broke.
Unfortunately, Nicole neglected to read Kim Porter’s Gold Digger’s Manual from front to back. Had she read the manual she would know to stack her chips carefully, and to never give her heart to a man like Michael Strahan, who has less money than she does.
The former Nicole Mitchell met Murphy in 1988. Their 12-year marriage ended in a bitter divorce in 2006. They have 5 children together.
Eddie Murphy’s ex wife Nicole has blown her massive $15 million divorce settlement in just four years – and now she’s millions of dollars in debt.
What’s more, the IRS has slapped her with five tax liens totally $846,630, and she has put her opulent mansion up for sale.
When Nicole divorced Eddie in 2006 after 13 years of marriage, she chose to take a one-time payout from the comedian of $15 million, instead of monthly alimony. But in a shockingly short span of time, she’s managed to lose all of it.
“Nicole made some bad investments with the fortune she got from Eddie, and now she is in serious financial straits,” said a friend of the 42-year-old stunner.
Court records show that the IRS slapped Nicole with two liens for back taxes in November totaling $214,688.
That huge bill was on top of outstanding judgments against her for nearly $600,000 by a legal firm and another $60,000 demand for payment by a landscaping company. She also owes $5 million on her Los Angeles-area home.
“Nicole is overwhelmed by the mountain of debt she has piled up,” added the source. Nicole, who has five children with Eddie, invested in an Internet jewelry business, but the venture quickly failed and Nicole lost most of her money.”
