D’Angelo is Back – and He’s Still Hawt (Video)
Remember when your mom and aunty used to lose their minds over D’Angelo back in the day? It wasn’t just his smooth vocals that made the ladies lose it, it was his hard, beefcake bod too! There was no doubt about it; D’Angelo was a good looking man. Plus, he had the confidence to go with his dashing good looks — or so we thought…
It turns out that D’Angelo, real name Michael Archer, wasn’t emotionally equipped to handle his growing fame. D’Angelo mistakenly believed his music was not appreciated by his fans as much as his hawt bod was. So, like most artists who lose their focus, D’Angelo dropped out of the music scene. Paralyzed with self-doubt, he neglected his music and turned to a life of drugs and alcohol abuse.
Along the way, D’Angelo, now 37, was arrested for drug possession and DUI’s. He did a stint in drug rehab in 2006. And on Mar. 10, 2010, he was arrested for soliciting oral sex from a female undercover officer in New York City.
But despite his many setbacks, the old D’Angelo made a triumphant return to the stage during a performance in Paris, France over the weekend. Watch the performance after the break!

Psycho Mom Abandons Her Two Daughters On the Street
Frustrated moms sometimes threaten their children with abandonment if they don’t behave. But one Brooklyn mother made good on her threats, according to the NY Daily News.
Dalisha Adams, 26, spent all day Sunday screaming profanities at her two daughters, Dominae, 5, and Diani, 3.
Neighbors of Adams at the Breukelen Houses in Canarsie often heard her screaming at the girls and their older sister, who lives with an aunt.
“She was always yelling at the kids, ‘Shut the f— up,’” said the neighbor, who did not want to be identified, according to the NY Daily News.
“One day, I heard her curse out the little baby, ‘I’ll punch you in the f—— face,’” the neighbor said.
On Sunday, police say, Adams bundled the children into her car, drove them about two miles away from home and dumped them out on the sidewalk before driving away. That’s where an elderly couple found the girls wandering up and down the street in the cold. The girls were still holding their disposable diapers.
Police went door-to-door hoping to identify the children. Their search eventually led them to Adams’ apartment. Police used a crowbar to take the door off its hinges around 10:10 p.m, but Adams wasn’t inside.

A bullet-riddled photo of President Barack Obama posted to a cop’s Facebook page has attracted the attention of the Secret Service.

Assistant of Fake Butt Implant Doc Attacked On Talk Show
The assistant to fake butt implant surgeon Oneal Ron Morris was attacked yesterday on a TV talk show. Corey Eubanks was a guest on Cristina Saralegui’s talk show in Doral, Florida Wednesday when he was attacked with a syringe wielded by the mother of one of Morris’ patients.
“My face has a mark on it and my head is killing me,” Eubanks told The Miami Herald. He said he appeared on the show to tell his side of the story and to clear his name.
The syringe was on the set for a demonstration related to the butt implant surgeries, and Eubanks’s attacker reportedly scratched his face with it, according to Radaronline.com.
Morris made headlines all over the world in Nov. when he injected tire sealant and other industrial substances into another man’s buttocks, sending the patient to a local hospital in serious condition.
As RadarOnline.com previously reported, Eubanks, 40, acted as the booker for Morris, 30. Both men were arrested in November for performing illegal butt enhancement surgeries without a license.

Jay Z’s Business Partner Charged With Murder!
The Hip Hop police never sleep. While former drug dealers-turned-rappers cavort onstage flashing the products of their ill-gotten wealth, the feds are meticulously gathering evidence against them.
According to The Sun, British police arrested Jay Z associate Chris Nathaniel, 39, and charged him with the stabbing of Danny O’Shea, 18, in East London.
The police nabbed Nathaniel yesterday when he landed at London’s Heathrow airport on an international flight from the United States.
The entertainment guru — linked with a host of sports idols, showbiz stars and leading politicians — was held with a pal aged 33.
Both were quizzed over the killing of Danny O’Shea, who was stabbed in the neck after being chased by a gang for 300 yards.
The teenager bled to death outside his mum’s home in Canning Town, East London.
Nathaniel was instrumental in brokering a business deal to open a London branch of the “Throne” rapper’s 40/40 restaurant and bar franchise.
Police: Body may be missing woman, Stacey English
The Atlanta Journal reports that the body of a woman found Monday in southeast Atlanta might be Stacey Nicole English, 36, who was reported missing in December 2011.
“The decedent is an adult black female, consistent in age with reported missing person Stacey English,” said chief medical examiner Randy Hanzlick, though it remains unclear whether the body is that of the missing Buckhead woman.
According to the AJC, two men searching for scrap metal stumbled upon the body on Monday in a wooded area less than a mile away from where English’s white Volvo was found abandoned with the engine running.
The body was “in an advanced state of decomposition,” Atlanta police spokesman Carlos Campos told the AJC.
APD notified English’s family of the discovery. “If this is not her, I have to still be sad because it’s someone else’s child,” said Bernice English Hurks, English’s aunt.
“I can’t base my emotions on what I think,” English Hurks said. The hardest thing now, she said, “is not knowing.”
An autopsy is underway to identify the body and to determine the cause of death.
