Celebrity Seed: Dwyane Wade, Mel B, Rev Run, June Ambrose

Singer Melanie Brown is just like you. Melanie, aka Mel B, shopped for baby supplies with her daughter Angel Murphy-Brown just days after giving birth to her third daughter Madison in Los Angeles, California. Angel’s daddy is comedian Eddie Murphy who didn’t see this child until she was almost 2.

Miami Heat star Dwyane Wade proudly tweeted this pic of his oldest son Zaire who won his first basketball game yesterday. Let’s hope he doesn’t put too much pressure on the kid to follow in daddy’s footsteps.

Angela Simmons, the daughter of Rev. Run Simmons, attended the Rachel Roy Spring 2012 presentation during Mercedes Benz Fashion Week on September 12.

Jay Z, La La & Carmelo Anthony, Zoe Saldana, Common, Ne-Yo celebrate Nas’ 38th birthday

It’s been 10 years since rapper Nas Ethered his rival Jay Z on wax by implying that the illest MC was gay and a narcissist. But last night the two men, who magnanimously settled their feud years ago, came together to celebrate Nas’ 38th birthday at Catch in New York City.

La La and her husband Carmelo Anthony looked very classy and respectable last night. Ladies, pay attention: this is how you dress when you’re with your man in mixed company. Exposing your cleavage when you’re with your man around other men is never acceptable under any circumstance.

Did Rappers Ruin Moscato?

The Hip Hop community is being blamed for ruining yet another high-priced alcoholic beverage.

If you recall, the folks at Cristal said “no thanks” to rappers who used to spit lyrics about the expensive wine on rap records. Rap mogul Jay Z was so infuriated by the winemaker’s diss that he threw the full weight of his swag behind Ace of Spades, thereby helping the cheap bubbly gain a strong foothold in Hip Hop circles.

But now Moscato is fast becoming the favored beverage among rappers who routinely drop the brand name in their songs.

“Moscato d’Asti used to be a fun, simple, adaptable dessert wine,” writes Gil Kulers, Access Atlanta’s Wine Curmudgeon. The wine taster objected to the idea of Hip Hop thugs consuming the Moscato “in the back of a limo or as refreshment on the dance floor and certainly not with nonsweet portions of the meal.”

“Where in the name of André Tchelistcheff did kids in their 20s get the idea to raise the roof with a bottle of Moscato d’Asti!?” Kulers gripes.

Kulers goes on to list the lyrics of Trey Songz’ song “I Invented Sex” as an example of the ruination of Moscato:

    It’s a celebration
    Clap clap bravo.
    Lobster and shrimp and a glass of moscato …
    finish the whole bottle.

What irritates Kulers most is the unforgivable misuse of the wine, which is considered blasphemy in wine circles.

“Moscato does not go with lobster and shrimp and ranks among his last choices for a celebratory drink,” wrote Kulers, who added: “It’s not the Wine Curmudgeon’s job to point out that “moscato” and “bottle” don’t rhyme.”




 

Locked Up: Gucci Mane gets 6 months in prison

According to the NY Daily News, troubled rapper Gucci Mane was sentenced to 6 months in prison for pushing a female out of his slow moving Humvee earlier this year.

Authorities in suburban Atlanta say rapper Gucci Mane will serve six months in jail after pleading guilty to battery and other charges.

DeKalb County Solicitor-General Sherry Boston said Tuesday that Mane, whose real name is Radric Delantic Davis, pleaded guilty to two counts of battery, two counts of reckless conduct and one count of disorderly conduct.

A police report said Davis pushed 36-year-old Diana Graham out of his Hummer as it rolled down a suburban Atlanta street on Jan. 28.

State Court Judge Eleanor Ross sentenced the rapper to serve six months in custody followed by several months on probation.

The judge also ordered him to complete 12 weeks of anger management classes; pay $5,091 in restitution to the woman for her medical bills; and pay a $3,000 fine.

Hopefully Radric will get the mental health treatment that he needs while he’s locked up.




 

Did Swizz Beatz just tell on himself?

Tweets are talking about music producer Swizz Beatz’s extravagant birthday gift that be purchased — not for himself, but for his wife, Alicia Keys.

The gift, an expensive Lotus automobile, is reminiscent of the sparkling 7 carat diamond ring valued at $4 mil that NBA superstar Kobe Bryant bought his wife Vanessa after allegations surfaced that he cheating on her with a hotel desk clerk.

By sheer coincidence, rumors are now swirling that Swizz cheated on his wife with at least 2 thirsty groupies. It would seem that men are not so complicated to figure out when it comes to matters of the heart.

Someone who is more intimately familiar with the ways of cheating men is Dallas socialite Zeralyn who has had her share of married ball players and rappers.

Zeralyn wrote on her blog: “Maybe it’s just me, but twice people have cheated on me and bought me a vehicle. So, im going to have to go with he admitted to her something.”

Swizz looks guilty from where we’re standing.
