Ray J: ‘I had no idea Whitney was doing coke’
Brandy’s opportunistic brother Ray J is outraged that insiders are accusing him of being Whitney Houston’s cocaine supplier.
The LA County coroner’s final report listed cocaine among the handful of drugs found in Whitney’s system when she died in a hotel bathtub on Feb. 11.
According to TMZ.com, the coroner Craig Harvey described the cocaine level in Whitney’s system as “acute” — a medical terminology for short-term.
So Whitney must have ingested the cocaine within hours of being found unresponsive in a bathtub in her suite at the Beverly Hilton last month.
But TMZ.com reports that somebody removed the cocaine from the hotel room before police and paramedics arrived. The person who removed the coke was the same one who supplied it to Whitney.
But Ray J tells TMZ.com it wasn’t him. TMZ also reports that the sheets were missing from the bed in Whitney’s hotel room. Could it be that the sheets were removed to destroy biological evidence that could reveal who was doing coke with Whitney before she died?
Source: Jay Z feeling under pressure to stay at home with Beyonce and Blue Ivy
According to my loyal informer within Beyonce’s camp, her husband, Jay Z, is feeling the pressure to spend more quality time at home with her and their infant daughter, Blue Ivy.
“He’s cheating on her with other women, but she doesn’t care about that,” said the source. “She wants him to spend more time at home with them. That’s the most important thing to her right now,” said the source, who added that Jay Z is pushing Beyonce to go out on tour to take the pressure off of himself.
Jay Z is reportedly working to put together a $150 million world tour for Beyonce with Live Nation, but my source says Beyonce is not “emotionally or physically” ready to return to the rigors of touring. “A world tour is very demanding and time-consuming,” says the source. “She wants to do smaller, more intimate venues. She’s not ready for [a world tour] yet.”
It is rumored that Beyonce is suffering from postpartum depression after the birth of Blue Ivy in January. In other photos taken yesterday, Bey’s eyes were red as if she had been weeping. Beyonce’s mom, Tina Knowles, has not left her side since Blue Ivy was born on Jan.7.
Beyonce and Jay Z were spotted leaving their New York apartment last night to go on a dinner date at Nobu restaurant. After dinner, Jay Z and his boys hit the studio. Beyonce also attended a fundraising event for the Obama re-election campaign.

Celebs Out & About: Jada Pinkett-Smith
Jada Pinkett-Smith knows where her loyalties lay, despite persistent rumors that her husband, Will Smith, is having an affair with his best friend, Duane Martin. The 40-year-old actress and mother of two recently recorded a song titled “Burn” which she dedicated to Smith after 13 years of marriage. Jada also shot a video for the song with her rock band Wicked Wisdom. You can view the behind the scenes video after the break.
For years Will Smith has battled pesky rumors of infidelities with both men and women. But Jada has also had her share of ghey rumors. Most notably, the one about her routinely sending her hair stylist to fetch women and bring them back to her hotel room for a night of passion (with or without Will). Jada was spotted leaving her NYC hotel room earlier today. The rock star wore a white suit over fuchsia 6 inch open toe heels. She looks great for 40.

Carmelo Anthony’s wife, LaLa Anthony, called the paparazzi to let them know she would be walking with her son Kiyan Anthony on the street where the shop Serendipity is located in NYC. Kiyan, who just turned 5 on March 7th, is being given a bigger role on LaLa’s reality show this upcoming season. The new season will also focus on the rampant and unceasing rumors of ‘Melo’s infidelities with random tramps on Twitter.com. LaLa’s therapist reportedly advised her to face the rumors head on rather than continue to ignore or deny them. Meanwhile, her husband has slapped down rumors that he would ask to be traded if the NY Knicks front office didn’t fire coach D’Antoni, with whom he reportedly didn’t get along. D’Antoni turned in his resignation on Tuesday. But ‘Melo denied the rumors that he forced the Knicks to get rid of the coach. Knicks fans blame ‘Melo for the Knicks losing record. The Knicks are 3-8 after ‘Melo returned to the team after rehabbing a groin injury last month.

Bobbi Kristina and Whitney’s ‘adopted son’ are dating
When news of Whitney Houston’s tragic death was announced on Feb. 11, everyone’s thoughts were with her daughter, Bobbi Kristina Brown, 19. Few people knew she had a so-called “adopted son,” named Nick Gordon. Later we learned that Whitney took Nick in when he was 11-years-old, but she never formally adopted him.
Now we find out that sometime after Nick moved into Whitney’s home, he started getting real intimate with her daughter. Bobbi K. and Nick were spotting kissing and holding hands together last Friday outside a Target store in Johns Creek, Georgia, according to Hollywoodlife.com.
And last night, Nick updated his Twitter page to let everyone know: “Yea we got a little closer and what!!!” He also posted a new pic of himself and Bobbi Kristina together. This is the same dude who was reportedly being evicted from Whitney’s home. I guess that’s not happening now.
After Whitney passed away, a loyal reader emailed me photos of Nick Gordon taken from Bobbi K.’s Twitter account. The email author wondered if I would ask my readers to pray for her “adopted son.” But I politely declined for two reasons: 1. I had never heard of Whitney having an adopted son, and 2. Bobbi K. and Nick looked like they were more than just siblings to me.

Whitney’s mom confronted traitor who sold casket photo to Enquirer
According to the Chicago Suntimes, a source close to Whitney Houston’s mother, Cissy Houston, revealed that Cissy confronted the traitor who sold the final photo of Whitney in an open casket to the National Enquirer.
The Houston family source said Cissy “had a come-to-Jesus moment” with the guilty party and demanded the alleged six-figure fee for the photo be donated to charity.
Insiders are whispering that the person who sold the final photo was most likely Whitney’s closest friend and sister-in-law, Pat Houston, who signed at least one deal to profit off of Whitney’s death.
Matthew Knowles: Beyonce would never judge a reality TV show
Tavern singer Beyonce, who is busy raising her surrogate’s daughter, Blue Ivy, was the subject of rampant rumors that she would appear as a judge on ‘X Factor’. One rumor has it that Bey turned down $500 million to appear on the reality show as a judge (it apparently wasn’t enough cash).
But her father, Matthew Knowles, dismissed such rumors as unfounded and speculative. He knows better than anybody that his daughter is above judging TV music shows.
In an interview with The Sunday Mirror, Knowles said he recently spoke with Beyonce who told him she had no interest in a career as a TV talent judge.
“It would never happen as Beyoncé would never do that. There are a few things that she would never do and that is one. It’s not for her.”
Clearly, Beyonce’s ego is too enormous o be on the same judging panel with the likes of Janet Jackson, who was also rumored to be approached by Simon Cowell.
Cowell is in the process of interviewing celebrities to fill the hastily vacated seats of ex-judges Paula Abdul and Nicole Scherzinger, whom he fired earlier this year.
