Kim Kardashian wins settlement against blogger; shut down blog
Reality maven Kim Kardashian won a civil settlement against her former publicist, celebrity blogger Jonathan Jaxson — barring him from spilling any more teas about her.
On Wednesday, the 31-year-old E! star’s lawyers issued a statement to Us Weekly, saying: “Kim Kardashian is very happy to announce that she has reached a settlement of her claims against Jonathan Jaxson. . .Kim is extremely pleased with the outcome of the matter.”
It’s highly unlikely that their settlement includes any monetary damages — since Jaxson doesn’t have any money. It more than likely includes language ordering Jaxson to keep his mouth shut — or else.
According to US magazine, As part of the settlement, Jaxson issued a public apology on his official website. “I wanted to apologize publicly to Kim Kardashian for any confusion that I may have caused by the personal statements I made recently regarding Kim Kardashian,” Jaxson wrote. “I would like to further clarify that I did not have any first hand knowledge of Kim’s relationship with Kris.”
Jaxson’s official website is no longer online, probably per the settlement agreement.
Despite Kardashian’s denials, there is no doubt that Jaxson once worked for Kardashian. There are videos and photos online of them together during happier times… if you feel like searching.
Plus, back in 2007, I met Jaxson at a party that I was hired to shoot for one of his clients (a Soap star whose name I can’t recall). Jaxson was your typical loose cannon who could not stop dishing the dirt about his other clients — Lindsay Lohan and Kim Kardashian.
Hopefully, Jaxson has learned his lesson to stop running his mouth so much and save all his dirt for a book… like I’m doing.
Floyd Mayweather thinks Jeremy Lin hype is because he’s Asian
According to sports groupie, Stiletto Jill:
Floyd posted on Twitter Monday night that the only reason why Knicks breakout star point guard Jeremy Lin is getting attention is because he’s Asian. I’m going to attempt to play advocate for Floyd for a second. There are a very small number of Asians in the league. That’s true. Obviously Yao Ming was a superstar. There was Wang Zhi-Zhi, Sun Yee and maybe a handful of others.
I agree with Floyd and Jill. I’m glad I don’t live in New York where the media overhypes everything. I watched Lin play and I don’t see the big deal. He is a typical ball hog who misses more shots than he hits, rather than passing the ball to the open man.
Judge a player by his season stats, not over 6 games against weak opponents.
CNN Suspends Roland Martin
CNN has apparently caved in to pressure from gay groups by suspending political analyst Roland Martin for making a joke about British soccer star David Beckham.
A CNN spokeswoman confirmed the suspension with this statement issued today:
“Roland Martin’s tweets were regrettable and offensive. Language that demeans is inconsistent with the values and culture of our organization, and is not tolerated. We have been giving careful consideration to this matter, and Roland will not be appearing on our air for the time being.”
Martin came under attack from gay groups after tweeting a wisecrack about Beckham’s underwear commercial which aired during Sunday’s Super Bowl telecast on NBC.
Martin seemed to suggest in his tweet that his followers “smack the ish out of” any male Super Bowl fan who is “hyped about David Beckham’s H&M underwear ad.”
Martin added that “real bruhs” would not purchase underwear advertised by Beckham.
A network suspension is usually the first step towards a contract termination. Martin was a CNN political analyst for 4 years.

CNN’s Roland Martin Under Attack From Gay Groups for David Beckham Tweets
CNN’s political analyst Roland Martin came under attack from gay groups after tweeting a wisecrack about British soccer star David Beckham.
Martin, who is very sensitive when he is the subject of gay jokes, took to his Twitter page last night to “live tweet” during the Super Bowl broadcast. His tweets included this one, which his followers took to be an anti-gay slur:
Martin seemed to suggest that his followers “smack the ish out of” any male Super Bowl fan who is “hyped about David Beckham’s H&M underwear ad” that was shown during the Super Bowl.
Martin added that “real bruhs” would not purchase underwear advertised by Beckham.
Trump endorses Romney; Says he will ‘save this country we all love’
As predicted by media talking heads, business mogul Donald Trump has endorsed Republican candidate Mitt Romney for president.
In announcing his decision Thursday at a packed news conference, Trump said Romney is “not going to allow bad things to continue to happen to this country we all love.”
Romney said he was honored to receive Trump’s endorsement, but he is more concerned with winning the endorsement of Nevada voters in the presidential caucuses Saturday.
Romney, who famously said he didn’t care about the poor, is not concerned with repairing his image as a racist elitist.
Romney told CNN, “I’m concerned about the very heart of America, the 90 to 95 percent of Americans who right now are struggling.” He added: “I’ll continue to take that message across the nation.”
Unless President Obama can pull a Herman Cain sized rabbit out of his hat, Romney will roundly defeat him in the upcoming Presidential election in November.

Sneak Peek: Braxton Family Values, Ep 12, Caught Red Handed
In tonight’s dramatic episode of WEtv’s Braxton Family Values, Trina Braxton and her estranged husband, Gabe Solis, tackle his infidelities during an emotional therapy session with TV Dr. Sherry.
“I caught Gabe red handedly acting inappropriately on a social network site with a female that he knew,” explained Trina.
Gabe’s cheating ways came to light on Twitter.com when a woman tweeted photos of him exposing himself on Skype.
But when it was Gabe’s turn to speak, he avoided the issue of exposing himself online.
In typical canine behavior, Gabe blamed the other woman for tempting him with a bone. “I took the bait,” he said. Gabe has since deleted his Twitter page.
Although he remains in denial about his voyeuristic behavior, Gabe did admit to Dr. Sherry that he didn’t do what a married man should have done.
In an interview last month, Trina, who has children from a previous relationship, revealed that she and Gabe separated a year ago. Their Johns Creek, GA home is still on the market.
Watch the sneak peek of tonight’s episode after the break.
Snoop to Kris Humphries: ‘You shouldn’t have tried to wife the b*tch!’
Rapper-turned-comedian Snoop Dogg gives sound advice to hopeless romantic Kris Humphries, who followed his heart — and not his brains — when he married narcissist Kim Kardashian in a made-for-TV wedding last year.
It’s not entirely Kris’ fault. It’s a holdover from evolutionary days that some men lose all common sense when they are in the presence of a pretty woman.
In another video making the rounds on the Internet yesterday, rapper Young Jeezy, weighed in by saying he would rather die than marry a Kardashian. We’re sure he meant Kim, not Khloe.
