Why Is This News?
The big news on social networking site Twitter.com today is, Sean Combs made his Twitter account private. If you follow Sean on Twitter, then you probably don’t even realize his account is private since you can still see his tweets if you’re logged in. The rest of us (who don’t follow his narcissistic tweets) are left wondering why this is news?
Diddy’s official Twitter account @iamdiddy has been been turned into a private account for which users must request access before being able to view Diddy’s tweets. It’s not clear whether the move was intentional on the part of the rapper or perhaps a result of a Twitter glitch, although we have yet to hear reports of any Twitter accounts being turned private by mistake.
The move is unusual in that Diddy has more than two million Twitter followers, as it’s very rare that high profile celebrities make their accounts invite-only. …those newcomers who want to begin following him will now need approval.
No word yet on the why or the how of it. User requests are, however, quickly being approved, based on our findings. Source
Here’s why Sean made his account private: it’s because his closest competition on Twitter — narcissists Oprah Winfrey and Ashton Kutcher, both have more followers than he does.
No doubt Sean read this story announcing Britney Spears as the celebrity with the most followers on Twitter. Even Ashton Kutcher’s wife, actress Demi Moore, has surpassed Diddy’s Twitter count with 2,737,453 followers to Diddy’s 2,611,197. On the list of Top 10 celebs with the most followers, Sean sits at #7 and he’s fading fast.
Rumor Control: Did Drake Get a Girl Pregnant?
Rumors are flying on the online micro-blogging service Twitter.com today, that allegedly — ALLEGEDLY — the rapper Drake has a baby on the way. The baby mama is supposedly none other than video vixen/exotic dancer Maliah Michel, who starred in Drake’s “Find Your Love” music video and was recently seen cuddled up with Drake at Atlanta’s Gold Room.
The evidence comes to us by way of a random statement uttered aloud by someone on the set of Maliah’s latest butt naked photo shoot. The person is alleged to have barked,
“DO NOT SMOKE WEED around Maliah and DO NOT offer her any DRINKS! She’s preggers.”
Somehow, I doubt this story is true. But we shall soon see.
FanMAIL: Was Chris Brown’s Glass Jaw Rocked in Miami?
I don’t know if this is true, so don’t quote me on it. But, a loyal reader tells me that singer Chris Brown’s jaw was rocked by a “Dade county thug” who probably didn’t take kindly to singers in his midst who have been convicted of domestic abuse.
Hey, even thugs love their mamas, aunties and sisters. So I don’t doubt that someone clocked his jaw, which is why I’m posting the email. If this is true, I hope someone sends the pics of CB picking his jaw up off the floor and running to his mommy crying.
Hey Sandra,
My friend just sent me pics last night off her phone from Mia Lounge in Miami you know all the celebs are down there for Memorial Day weekend. She said she met Chris he was real nice and got pics of him by the DJ booth. She said Chris was in the downstairs VIP chuming it up with she and her girls before he and his crew were confronted and then she seen Chris get his jaw straight borrowed by one of those Dade County thugs.
She said it was a zoo and so packed security was pushing people to escort people out of VIP and tried to take her camera when she tried to get pics of Chris and his crew getting man handled. I guess karma is NEVER good when you put your hands on a woman. Sounds like Chris got his jaw and face rock socketeted. Just letting you know.
p.s. I wasn’t there I’m just going off what she told me. Ask around and see if others witnessed the same.
Basketball Wives’ Evelyn Lozada is a F*#@ing Lady

Listen, I was watching basketball wives last night and they had Evelyn [Lozada] going at it at [with] that Vanessa Davis about the emails and such.
I googled Vanessa Davis because I wanted to see who her hubby was and what team he played for. Boy was I surprised when I came across this mess, it’s funny because I recall reading about this and that’s how I found out who Sakra Ross was.
She now dates a Philadelphia Eagle and is close friends with Antonia Toya Carter and this Vanessa even tries to drag Toya into this mess.
Beyonce – Halo (Alternate Version)
When I first heard about this alternate version to Beyonce’s hit single “Halo”, I thought “alternate” meant she remixed the track with a more alternative sound. Instead, what we see is Beyonce’s director/producer skills on display.
Why is Beyonce producing music videos? I thought she was on hiatus from the music industry? Maybe she’s bored?
Surprisingly, I like this video. It shows a more laid back, fresh faced Beyonce than we’re used to seeing.
“Halo” is by far my favorite song in Bey’s repertoire. The only other song of hers that I like is “Hello.” Everything else she sings sounds like screeching white noise and I can’t take it.
When I Was 17: Ludacris
Chris “Ludacris” Bridges is featured in this clip of MTV’s “When I Was 17.” Ludacris got his start in the music biz as an intern and then a DJ at Hot 97.5, which later changed it’s call letters to HOT 107.9.
After radio programmer Chaka Zulu was fired from the station for allegedly taking payoffs in a Payola-type scandal, Chaka was offered a job at Def Jam and he took the young upstart rapper with him to the label. The rest is history.
Celebs Out & About
More pics from Trina’s album release party in Miami courtesy of FastLifeFastMoney.com. Is this really Kenyon Martin booed up with Trina or a lookalike? I’m kidding of course. But I thought she beat his azz and sent him running back to his baby mama? See, men can be whipped too (literally).
Maybe Kenyon bought Trina a make-up bag for 5 G’s and they had make-up sex like The Dream and T.I. (though not together).
