Nick Cannon asks ‘Who’s sickly?, and Khloe says ‘Our show is not canceled!’

Every time the blogs mention a new rumor about entertainment mogul Nick Cannon, he sets out to prove them wrong with photographic evidence or a flurry of emails from his publicist.

Yesterday in Paris, Nick and his wife, Mariah were spotted leaving their hotel. Nick was dressed in a tight tank top that showed off his muscular guns. He seems to be asking “Who’s sickly?” It’s good to see Nick looking so well after his recent health scare.

E! Online got the scoop on that scurrilous rumor about Lamar and Khloe’s show being canceled. According to a celebrity blog, Khloe and Lamar pulled the plug on their hit reality TV show so they could focus on their marriage and his failing NBA career. So I guess all that stuff about Khloe caring more about her marriage wasn’t true?

Whitney’s Final Coroner’s Report Gives Rise to Misinformation

Yesterday, Whitney Houston’s final autopsy report was released to the media and others who immediately began misinterpreting the coroner’s findings. There is so much misinformation surrounding the autopsy report. Where do I begin?

First and foremost, Whitney died as the result of accidental drowning, meaning there was enough water in her lungs to interfere with the delivery of oxygen to her brain. The singer’s entourage found her face down and unresponsive in the bathtub of her suite at the Beverly Hilton hotel on Feb. 11.

According to the report, Whitney’s drowning death was preceded by a cocaine overdose. Cocaine was found in her system, and cocaine residue was found on a spoon and on a rolled up sheet of paper in her hotel suite.

Someone supplied Whitney with that cocaine, since she obviously didn’t procure it for herself. Many in the industry believe a close friend of hers supplied her with the drug.

Whitney was a chronic cocaine snorter, as evidenced by the finding of a perforated posterior septum, which means a hole in her nose caused by chronic cocaine use.

Whitney was also vain about her appearance. The coroner had to pry a brown lacefront wig off her head which was “firmly attached to her hair.”

The coroner’s report also noted Whitney’s McGhan breast implants (size: 230 cc).

A sex assault kit was performed on Whitney in the hotel room where she died. If she had sex prior to her death, semen might have been collected. But that’s not likely since she was found submerged in water.

Now let’s get to the misinformation that is circulating.

This morning, an Atlanta area radio morning show reported incorrectly that Whitney’s body was scalded in 93 degree water that caused her skin to peel off. That’s not true.

Robert Kardashian Speaks from Grave: I’m Khloe’s Dad

Khloe Kardashian lashed out at her late father’s two ex-wives on Twitter.com for alleging that she was not a full fledged Kardashian.

Khloe was steamed at the 2 ex-wives for blabbing to celebrity gossip websites that Robert Kardashian, who died of cancer in 2003, told each of them that Khloe was not his kid.

“The audacity you have to mention my father’s name like this!,” she tweeted yesterday. She added: “Should be ashamed of urself! I let a lot of things slide but this one is really low… YOU ARE DISGUSTING! (yes you know who YOU are)”

But TMZ.com did a little digging around and unearthed an old court document that seems to suggest that Khloe might have sprang from Kardashian’s loins after all.

Robert Kardashian swore that Khloe IS his biological daughter … torpedoing claims by his ex-wives that Khloe was fathered by another man.

When Robert was seeking to have his 2nd marriage annulled from Jan Ashley in 1999, he submitted a declaration to the judge stating that the marriage did not work because Jan wanted to have his child … but he did not.

In the declaration, Robert says, “I decided that since I already had four biological children, I did not wish to have any more.”

Jan just told a tabloid that Robert had privately confessed to her he was NOT Khloe’s biological dad — but that seems to fly in the face of Robert’s own declaration.

Great work, TMZ! I’m sure this will make Robert rest easier.

Rumor Control: Tiny’s Dad is Alive and Well

This morning I received an urgent call from former Xscape singer Tameka “Tiny” Harris’ mom, Dianne Pope, asking me to inform my readers that Tiny’s father, Charles Pope, is alive and well. Tiny’s fans were introduced to Mr. and Mrs. Pope on Tiny’s reality show, Tiny & Toya on BET in 2009.

It seems that some idiot created a fake Facebook page imitating Tiny and claiming her father was deceased. “Tiny wants people to know that her daddy is fine,” said Mrs. Pope. “That’s not her Facebook page at all.

As you know, Mr. Pope (pictured at right with Tiny’s daughter, Zonnique) was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease. T.I. and Tiny founded the For The Love of Our Fathers Foundation, which raises money for Alzheimer’s research.

Mrs. Pope says her husband’s condition has improved and he’s getting stronger. “He’s more alert. We’re getting him up now doing exercises,” she said.

Mrs. Pope theorized that Tiny’s fans may have confused Tiny’s father with a member of his legendary R&B group The Tams, who was murdered by his roommate. Tiny’s father founded The Tams, and Tiny has performed with the group.

According to Channel 2 Action News, longtime Tams band director Versi Sain, 59, was found shot to death in his Clayton County home earlier this month. Police arrested his roommate, Sam Morgan, and charged him with murder. He is being held in the Clayton County jail. The two men were childhood friends who grew up together in Muskegon, Michigan. Sources say the motive may have been money.

The Tams, now headed by Tiny’s brother Red, are known for their 60s hits “Be Young, Be Foolish, Be Happy,” and “Hey Girl Don’t Bother Me.”

fanMAIL: Keri Hilson incident in Paris

Our post on the Keri Hilson incident in Paris 2 weeks ago stirred emotions among readers who were upset with the connotations that my post may have implied.

Everyone had their own battles to pick with the wording of my post, including someone in Keri Hilson’s camp who was on the scene and witnessed the incident firsthand.

In an earlier email to Sandrarose.com, the crew member wrote, “We were all negatively effected by what happened. But 3 weeks later [blogs] like yours reopen old wounds that we wish would heal.”

In a follow-up email sent this morning, the crew member asked to clear the air on what really happened in Paris:

T.I. Released from Prison (Correction)

The photo above was taken on August 31st at the Forrest City Correctional facility, not today in Atlanta. T.I. remains incarcerated. We apologize for the error.

Just a few moments ago, rap mogul T.I., real name Clifford Harris Jr., 30, was released from the federal Penitentiary on Boulevard in Atlanta. TMZ published a pic of T.I. dragging a cart full of his belongings to the same luxury tour bus that Arkansas prison officials claim was unauthorized when he was transported from their facility to a halfway house in Atlanta.

Additionally, TMZ reports that there were two unauthorized individuals on T.I.’s bus.

According to TMZ.com:

TMZ has obtained photos of T.I. just minutes after he left prison on August 31 … and the photos show he wasn’t hiding anything from the prison staff — including his mode of transportation or who got on his tour bus.

The photos show T.I. in a red shirt, accompanied by a prison guard as he makes his way to the tour bus that carried him and his entourage to a halfway house.

Sources tell us … T.I.’s legal team believes prison officials targeted T.I. when they picked him up at the halfway house and hauled him back to prison, their reason was that T.I. was not authorized to take the tour bus. Yet the pictures clearly show prison staff knew exactly what mode of transportation he was using.

fanMAIL: Correction

In an earlier post about Alex Gidewon’s 40th birthday bash at Reign Nightclub in Atlanta, we noted that both Reign and Dubai (formerly Vanquish) nightclubs were designed by Michael Stribling. That was incorrect. The clubs were designed by Michael Habachy of Habachy Designs, Inc. We regret the error.

Good Morning,

I came across this article on Alex Gidewon’s Birthday Bash, and I think that there are a few corrections that you need to make to the article previously written. You had listed that Michael Stribling was the person responsible for the design of the club. Our design firm has been working on both Reign and Vanquish (now referred to as Dubai) for the past couple of years. A lot of blood, sweat and tears has gone into the design of these clubs, and we feel as though we were slighted in your article. You can verify this with both Alex and Michael Gidewon. Also deserving mention in your article should be Amy Rader of Rader Designs, who contributed to all of the Graphic Murals and Dave Daniels of David Daniels Design, who is responsible for all of the architecture. The months and months of collaboration should not go unnoticed and we all deserve the proper accolades.
