Report: Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith Still Together
According to RadarOnline.com, a subsidiary of the conglomerate that owns the National Enquirer, Hollywood super couple Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith are the victims of a vicious hoax.
Gossip tabloid In Touch Weekly cited an “inside source” who claimed the powerhouse couple were splitting up after 13 years of marriage. But ITW has reported wildly inaccurate rumors in the past.
“This is absolutely not true,” a family member –who asked not to be identified – exclusively told RadarOnline.com Tuesday about the rumors that the couple had broken up.
“No way are they splitting up. They are totally together and are not separating,” the family member said.
Meanwhile, a separate source that works very closely with Smith at his production company, Overbrook Entertainment, exclusively told RadarOnline.com: “The rumors are not true. Not sure who the source was but they are wrong. All is good in their relationship.”
Reports that Will and Jada, the Hollywood powerhouse couple who have been married for 13 years, surfaced Tuesday and the report was quickly shot down by those close to them.
“They’re happy and married still,” the family member said when asked about the rumored split.

Report: No illegal drugs in Amy Winehouse’s system
According to a toxicology report, alcohol was present but no illegal street drugs were found in British singer Amy Winehouse’s system after she died suddenly at age 27 in her $4 million London flat last month.
Winehouse’s spokesman released a statement confirming alcohol was present in her system. “Toxicology results returned to the Winehouse family by authorities have confirmed that there were no illegal substances in Amy’s system at the time of her death,” the statement read.
The spokesman added: “Results indicate that alcohol was present but it cannot be determined as yet if it played a role in her death.”
Amy’s father Mitch said she successfully kicked her drug habit that plagued her for years.
“Three years ago, Amy conquered her drug dependency — the doctors said it was impossible but she really did it,” he said.
But reports quoted family sources as saying her death could have been caused by sudden alcohol withdrawal.
“She was trying hard to deal with her drinking and had just completed three weeks of abstinence. She said, ‘Dad I’ve had enough of drinking, I can’t stand the look on your and the family’s faces anymore.’ ”

Shocker: Will and Jada Separate After 13 Years of Marriage
According to In Touch Weekly, Hollywood super couple Will and Jada-Smith have announced their intent to separate after 13 years of marriage and two children together. This rumor should be taken with a grain of salt because In Touch Weekly is losing credibility with outrageous rumors in the past which turned out to be wrong.
But tongues are still wagging. And rumor has it that today’s bombshell report (IF true) was probably brought on by the fact that one of their alleged sexual partners has decided to come forward with salacious details of their rumored sexual orgies over the years.
Rumors have circulated around the industry for years about the couple’s taste for threesomes and foursomes. Rumors have abounded about Will Smith’s alleged proclivity for intimacy with industry males.
Additionally, it has been rumored (and confirmed by at least one Atlanta socialite) that Jada allegedly prefers LSLH, or exotic looking industry females, and that she allegedly sends her people (more specifically, her hair stylist) to fetch her these professional industry women who might have something to lose if they should spill the beans to the media or blogs.
R.I.P. Nick Ashford
Nickolas Ashford of the legendary songwriting team Ashford and Simpson died Monday from complications of throat cancer in a New York hospital. He was a young 69.
Ashford, who recorded and performed professionally with his wife of 30+ years, Valerie Simpson, is best known for writing the 1984 hit songs “Solid (As A Rock)” and 1967′s “Ain’t No Mountain High Enough” recorded by Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell.
Ashford and Simpson never reached the heights of fame as the superstars who recorded their musical compositions, such as Diana Ross, Chaka Khan and Marvin Gaye. But Ashford, who was reportedly bisexual, will be remembered for his classic R&B hit songs, his falsetto voice, his flamboyant long flowing hair and his colored eye contact lenses that set him apart from other male R&B performers of his era.

…and they’re saying that Antonia “Toya” Carter’s slow husband, Mickey “Memphitz” Wright Jr., was arrested for attempting to sneak a loaded handgun past airport security. We wonder if it was this little pink pistol that Toya’s former fiance, James Hardy, bought her for her birthday? It will be interesting to see what is listed under “occupation” on Memphitz’s police report.
Carter and Wright were recently wed in a private ceremony in a suburb of Atlanta. The couple have no children together. Carter has a daughter with rapper Lil Wayne, who wiped out on a skateboard yesterday and required stitches to close a gash on his head.
Update: According to TMZ.com, which is surprisingly late with this news:
Law enforcement tells TMZ, Mickey “Memphitz” Wright put his backpack through the X-ray scanner at Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport — and TSA agents quickly discovered the firearm and called the cops.
According to police, Wright had a valid license to carry the weapon … insisting he had simply forgotten the gun was in his bag — but it’s still illegal to bring it on a plane.
Wright was arrested on the spot and transferred to a nearby jail. He is still in custody.
Oops. Toya must be frantic with worry for her man in Fulton County jail.
Martin Luther King Memorial Statue Unveiled in D.C. Today
A stone sculpture honoring the late civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. was unveiled on the National Mall in Washington D.C. today.
The gigantic ‘Stone of Hope’ sculpture of King was created by Chinese artist Lei Yixin. The statue was erected near the George Washington Monument at the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial. The memorial is the first on the National Mall to honor an African-American man and the first to honor a person who did not serve as president.
Engraved on one side of the statue are the words “OUT OF THE MOUNTAIN OF DESPAIR: A STONE OF HOPE.”
The monument will officially be dedicated on August 28, the 48th anniversary of King’s historic “I have a dream” speech.
When it comes time for President Barack Obama to have a statue erected in his honor he can only hope that his statue will be as impressive as this one!
