Celeb Style: 2 Chainz rocking MCM STARK Visetos Backpack
Unlike Sean Combs, I bet rapper 2 Chainz pays his bills. The rapper was wrongly detained by New York’s finest when they mistook 2 Chainz’s rap accessory for a dangerous weapon at NY’s LaGuardia airport.
2 Chainz, formerly Tity Boi, was released after the po-po examined the 4-finger ring chain, which police assumed was an illegal pair of brass knuckles.
“They tried to assassinate my character, they tried to assassinate my swag,” 2 Chainz told MTV News in an exclusive telephone interview. “It was just a negative dilemma earlier where someone misconstrued a piece of jewelry for a weapon and stuff.”

Earlier, Rihanna tweeted a pic of her new dreads extensions, shocking her fans who doubted she was really making the transition to dreads.

Fantasia and Joshua Ledet Perform Live On American Idol Finale (Video)
Singers Fantasia Barrino and Joshua Ledet brought the house down with their rousing rendition of “Take Me To The Pilot” during Fox’s ‘American Idol 2012′ results show at Nokia Theatre L.A. on Wednesday in Los Angeles.
Georgia’s own Phillip Phillips was named American Idol winner after a record 132 million votes were cast.
Fantasia, who retained her baby fat after giving birth to her son, wore outfits that accentuated her voluptuous curves. Rather than appreciate the gift of Fantasia and Joshua’s amazing talents, social network users were more concerned with what Fantasia was wearing. Just messy.

In Case You Missed It: Billboard’s Underwhelming Whitney Houston Tribute
Whitney Houston’s daughter Bobbi Kristina paid tribute to her late mother Sunday night during the 2012 Billboard Music Awards. Whitney died of a drug overdose on Feb. 11.
The tribute was underwhelming according to feedback on Twitter.com last night. Despite the pre-show hype indicating that Bobbi Kristina, a budding entertainer, would sing — she didn’t.
BK shed tears during Jordin Sparks’ stirring performance of “I Will Always Love You.” Afterwards, Bobbi K. took to the stage with her aunt, Pat Houston.
“I’m just blessed to have been in such an incredible woman’s life,” said Bobbi K.

HOT 97 Listeners Blast Obama for Gay Marriage Stance, Manny Pacquiao Comes Under Fire
HOT 97 (NY) listeners flooded the station with angry calls the day after President Barack Obama endorsed same-sex marriage. A majority of the listeners agreed that Obama’s opinion was clearly politically motivated, and intended to score points with the gay community.
A rumor is going around that Obama met with influential and powerful gay donors at the home of actor George Clooney, where Obama received millions in donations and a promise to deliver gay votes if Obama endorsed same-sex marriage.
Mr. Obama has consistently said he agreed with gay unions, but not same-sex marriage.
According to Fox News, callers to the popular urban station expressed disappointment in Obama, with some saying the president lost their votes.
