Rapper T.I. was spotted wearing Gucci flip flops and socks with long cargo pants at Reagan National Airport in Washington DC, after screening his new movie “Takers”. Why do men wear flip flops with socks and cargo pants? Is that supposed to be sexy? Don’t you have to keep pulling the pants leg up to keep it from dragging on the ground? I understand most men don’t have the most attractive feet, but flip flops and socks with cargo pants in 80-degree weather is not the biz.
By the way, that’s Clay Evans in the white tee: he’s T.I.’s road manager, and my readers’ favorite chocolate dip.

Upscale Hype says Nicki Minaj’s boss, Cash Money founder Birdman (Baby) Williams, surprised her with a Chanel J12 Chronograph ceramic watch on the set of Jay Sean’s new video. The watch retails for approx. $6,900. I’ve had my eye on that beauty (the watch, not Nicki) for some time now. But even if I could afford to splurge $6,900 on a watch, it wouldn’t be on a ceramic one. Especially since I know I’m only paying for the name.
