This Little Kid is Doing Too Much!
I’m so tired of seeing Willow Smith all over the blogs. Okay, the 10-year-old had a cute, catchy single with “Whip My Hair” last year. But now she’s doing magazine covers. music videos and movies — all while admitting she can’t multiply or subtract.
In the latest issue of Teen Vogue magazine, on stands now, Willow says, “I used to go on tour with my mom and dad and see what they were doing, and I’d tell them, ‘Oh, I wanna do that, I wanna do that.”
How many kids aspire to grow up and be whatever their mommy and daddy does for a living? Most adults encourage their offspring to get an education first. Will Smith and Jada Pinkett-Smith are raising their kids backwards!
Every time Willow gives an interview there’s a blizzard of red flags indicating future problems for the child prodigy. Here’s an example of Willow’s parents pushing the child towards failure:
“Whenever I don’t feel like working, they say, ‘You don’t want that career? You have to work hard. They think I should keep working harder and harder.”
Hello? She’s only 10!! This is what happens when narcissists are allowed to raise children. Luckily, Tron’s mother saved him from a similar fate.
Celebs Out & About: Christina Milian
Singer Christina Milian must have a really nasty personality. How else to explain her inability to keep a man despite her stunning beauty?
The 29-year-old singer was spotted dressed casually while shopping with friends in Los Angeles yesterday.
According to gossip website TMZ.com, Christina is back in court fighting for a larger share of estranged husband Terius “The Dream” Nash’s wealth.
She is said to have been offered a hefty divorce settlement, including 10 per cent of the music producer’s publishing interest in Justin Bieber’s worldwide smash-hit, “Baby”, which he co-wrote.
But in response, The Dream, who filed for divorce seven days before the birth of their daughter Violet last year, is said to have denied there was any agreement.
A lawyer for Christina told website TMZ: “Mr Nash filed for divorce. He wanted the divorce, not our client. She then agreed to resolve it peacefully and outside of the court. Now his lawyer is writing me saying there’s no agreement when we 100 per cent made an agreement on the record.” READ MORE

New Couple Alert: Bow Wow and Mystery Woman
Is rapper Bow Wow aware that a groupie is having his baby?
That’s the rumor floating around the blogosphere this week. As rumors go, this one is pretty ridiculous. But some bloggers earn six figures from their gullible readers who will believe anything.
The groupie, named Joie, whom I introduced you to here last June, is indeed pregnant. But she’s not confirming — or denying — that Bow Wow is her baby daddy. In fact, she’s keeping the rumors alive on her Twitter page at least until the real father comes forward.
This past weekend, Bow Wow, real name Shad Moss, 23, was spotted at Atlanta’s Compound nightclub partying with his current LSLH flame. Both Bow Wow and his new lady seemed oblivious to all the baby talk that’s making the rounds. The two cuddled and made love faces at each other in the VIP all night long. She made sure that everyone in the club knew she was with Bow Weezy.
Bow Wow and his cutie pie girlfriend partied with friends into the wee hours of the morning before leaving the club together. He sure isn’t behaving like a man who’s about to be a daddy for the first time (that we know of). He’s acting more like a man with no worries — or baby mamas at home.
I wonder what Miss Joie, who lives in LA, thinks about these pictures?

Mike Kyser (@Littleburger) Named President of Black Music for Atlantic Records
Industry veteran Mike Kyser has been named the first-ever President of Black Music for the Atlantic Records Group.
The announcement was made yesterday by Atlantic Chairman/COO Julie Greenwald and Chairman/CEO Craig Kallman. Kyser, who began his music career two decades ago at Def Jam Recordings, joined Atlantic Records in 2004 as Executive Vice President of Urban Music.
In the early years of his career, Kyser (who was a DJ) worked and toured with such artists as Public Enemy, LL Cool J, Jay-Z, Method Man, Redman, Foxy Brown, Warren G, and Montell Jordan. Kyser was instrumental in staging the historic, record-breaking “Hard Knock Life” stadium tour with Jay-Z, DMX, Method Man, and Redman in 1999.
In 2009, Kyser was a key player in one of Jay-Z’s most successful releases to date, The Blueprint 3. He spearheaded Jay-Z’s achieving his 11th #1 album, surpassing Elvis Presley as the solo artist with the most #1 albums, while leading the team that delivered Jay-Z his first #1 Billboard Hot 100 single as a lead performer, the
multi-Grammy nominated “Empire State Of Mind” duet with Alicia Keys.
“To say that this is a dream come true is an understatement,” said Kyser in a press release. “The heritage of black music at Atlantic Records is second to none in this industry, and it is both humbling and thrilling to take on this new post at a label with such an amazing legacy. We have a fantastic roster of talent, combined with the best staff in the business, and I’m looking forward to building on our achievements to take black music at Atlantic Records to new heights.”
Some of you may know Kyser as the elusive, but popular @Littleburger on Twitter.com. For a while, many in the industry believed @Littleburger was really singer chris brown.

The UK introduces gay curriculum in schools
The British school system is introducing a new “gay curriculum” incorporating homosexual lifestyle lessons for thousands of school children from Kindergarten to grade school.
The Telegraph UK has more details:
The initiative will be officially launched next month at the start of “LGBT History Month” — an initiative to encourage teaching about lesbian, gay, bisexual and transsexual issues.
The lesson plans, spread across the curriculum, will be offered to all schools, which can choose whether or not to make use of them.
But critics last night called the initiative a poor use of public money which could distract from the teaching of “core” subjects.
Among the suggestions are:
Maths — teaching statistics through census findings about the number of homosexuals in the population, and using gay characters in scenarios for maths problems;
Design and technology — encouraging pupils to make symbols linked to the gay rights movement;
Science – studying animal species where the male takes a leading role in raising young, such as emperor penguins and sea horses, and staging class discussions on different family structures, including same-sex parents.
Where Are They Now: Kim Porter
Bit actress and sometime model Kim Porter, 43, was spotted out & about in Beverly Hills yesterday. Kim was seen shopping for high end sunglasses. She listened to music on her iPod while she tried on expensive frames. As you know, her famous baby daddy’s are music mogul Sean Combs and 80′s R&B crooner-turned-radio jock Al B Sure. Between them she has 4 children.
Later, Kim was spotted waiting for the elevator outside a dentist’s office in Beverly Hills. She told the paparazzi that she’d just had a root canal, yet she was sipping on a large soda. The pap advised Kim that the cold soda only makes the pain worse, to which Kim replied that she needed the soda to calm her nerves. Kim eventually got tired of waiting for the elevator and opted for the stairs. At age 43, she still looks like a teenager.

Soulja Boy, whose last album sold a measly 13,000 copies, released his latest single, “Mike Vick” on his Twitter page last night. This is more brainless music from the 20-year-old rapper whose young fans have outgrown his grade school rhymes and moved on to Lil Wayne and Wiz Khalifa.
