Kim Kardashian Flies To Minnesota!


For WHY?!?!? (YES, I'm aware of what I just typed)

Kim Kardashian booked a last minute flight to Minnesota, where her soon-to-be ex husband Kris Humphries is, and was spotted in the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport at around 5:30 AM local time.

Sources close to Kimmie are saying that she "booked the flight very last minute because she felt like she owed it to him to talk things through face-to-face. We're told no reality show cameras were involved," this according to TMZ

Sources are also saying that it's "definitely not accurate to call this a reconciliation ... or even an attempt at one ... but the door is definitely not shut."

Kimmie, lookahere...PACK IT UP!!! I don't believe that this is a reconciliation. Honestly, how can it be?!?!? He would be a fool to take her back, especially when she has pretty much called the wedding a mistake from the beginning. And just think. Even if they were to get back together, can you even imagine what there relationship would be like thereafter? It would be plagued by this event forever.

Kim and Kris...cut your losses and move on!

Sidebar - speaking of Kim and Kris' wedding debacle, please check out SNL's spoof of their wedding under the break....LMAO!

Rihanna Unveils "Talk That Talk" Promo Shots!


I'm not convinced this one right here can take a bad picture....NOPE!

Rihanna and her team have released a couple of promo shots for her anticipated new album, Talk That Talk, due out November 21st! And if things couldn't get ANY better for the Bajan beauty, her new single "We Found Love" hit the #1 spot on the Billboard Singles chart making it Rihanna's 11th number one song!
"11th NUMBER ONE?????? That sh*t CRAY!!!! RihannaNavy Talk that Talk!!!!! #WeBadUMad"
Don't you just love her?!

But all is not going good for our Ri-Ri! The singer had to cancel her Swedish concert earlier this week due to exhaustion!
Live Nation's Kristofer Akesson said Rihanna "is exhausted and doesn't feel well," but did not elaborate on what is wrong with her. Promoters have said they plan to reschedule the gigs, but have not said when they will take place. She was able to perform at the first of two scheduled shows in Stockholm on Tuesday night.
Get better Rihanna!

Another shot under the break.....

John Mayer Undergoes Throat Surgery!


Via John Mayer's blog:

Hey all…

I wanted to give you an update on the granuloma just above my vocal cord. I had surgery this afternoon to remove it and am now on complete vocal rest for a month or more. It’s been a very long process in waiting to see if time was an alternative to surgery, but even given two weeks’ voice rest (along with many other approaches), there was no change for the better.

I should be frustrated but I can’t seem to stop thinking about beautiful things… I never thought I’d be wishing I could do what I love again; I stay in at night, picking guitar parts off of records and dreaming of playing on the big stage. The only difference between now and when I was 18 is that now I have this beautiful, meaningful record waiting for me when I can sing it.

Until then, I’m taking off. Going to travel the country, look and listen.

sincere love

JM

P.S. thanks to those who sent birthday wishes, especially those who contributed to the Happy Birthday video… I streamed it to TV and let it run like a music playlist for the whole 30 minutes on my birthday. You’re the best.
John (as if I know him on a personal level) is one of my favorite musicians! I've been obsessed with his music since the beginning, so I'm happy to hear that after this healing process we can hear some great music soon *pretty please...fingers crossed* HURRY!

BREAKING: Judge Revokes Lindsay Lohan's Probation....Bond Set!


THIS GIRL!!!! First her teeth, now this. *sigh*
What was meant to be a routine progress report stemming from a jewelry theft case ended Wednesday with actress Lindsay Lohan leaving the courtroom in handcuffs. Judge Stephanie Sautner made it clear throughout the hearing that "probation is a gift," and the troubled starlet did not meet her required hours of community service. "I'm revoking her probation," said Sautner. "Miss Lohan has created an impossibility to perform this sentence that was given to her by her own actions," she said. The actress, who arrived in court wearing a white top and white scarf, was taken into custody. A hearing was tentatively set for Nov. 2. Bail was set $100,000. During Wednesday's hearing, the judge focused on nine appointments at the Downtown Women's Center that Lohan missed. The judge also noted the sessions were supposed to last four hours. Lohan allegedly visited once and only stayed for about an hour. (MORE)
*in my Tyra Banks voice* I was rooting for you....we were all rooting for you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Although Lindsay could face up to a year in jail since having her probation revoked, more than likely that will NOT happen. The judge said Lindsay must complete 16 hours of community service at a morgue before her upcoming November 2nd hearing.

Jada Pinkett And Will Smith Now Minority Owners In The Philadelphia 76ers!


Now....take THAT divorce rumors!!!
Will Smith just bought a much bigger playground to spend most of his days. The Philadelphia native and wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, are officially minority shareholders of the 76ers NBA team in a deal that was confirmed by the league on Tuesday. The "Men In Black" star and his wife are part of an ownership group that includes a former NBA executive, leveraged buyout specialist Josh Harris and an Indonesian media magnate, according to the league's website. The group takes ownership from Comcast-Spectator, which, led by chairman Ed Snider, purchased the team in 1996. "This is one of the hardest business decisions I've ever had to make," Snider said in a statement on Tuesday. "The Sixers are family, and it is very difficult to say goodbye to an organization of great people with whom we have worked so closely over the last 15 years." Forbes magazine valued the team at $330 million this year – which is 17th in the league. The Philadelphia Daily News reported that the new owners paid about $280 million. The Smiths join rappers Jay-Z, Nelly and Usher as entertainers-turned-part NBA owners with the investment. Smith was rumored to be part of a group interested in purchasing the group as far back as 2006, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer. That group was assembled by Julius Erving.
Congrats to Will And Jada! Great investment IMO....

Spotted: Rick Ross After SECOND Seizure!


YES, Dancers! Rapper Rick Ross had a SECOND seizure after he was released from his first scare on an airplane!
After two in-flight medical emergencies, rapper Rick Ross FINALLY made it to Memphis this weekend for the grand opening of a chicken wing joint. Ross suffered his first seizure on a commercial flight, which had to be diverted so he could receive medical care. Hours later, Ross got back on a private jet ... and suffered ANOTHER seizure. The plane was also diverted ... but this time Ross was rushed to a nearby hospital for treatment. But Ross eventually made it to Memphis ... because Ross' friend, DJ Khaled, posted a photo last night ... showing the rapper sipping on a drink in front of a Tennessee Wingstop. Khaled noted, "My brother ROZAY!!IS GOOD!!!" It's unclear HOW Ross actually got to Memphis -- or how he plans to get home.
I'm no expert at this, but people just don't randomly have seizures, right? Which leads me to believe or question if Ross is epileptic. Although he nor his people have ever announced this, it's very puzzling how he had back to back seizures.

I hope that he will be ok! Money, cars, access, etc is GREAT, but without your health, none of that really matters.

Giuliana Rancic Reveals She Has Breast Cancer!



WOW!!!

In very SHOCKING and SURPRISING news, E! news correspondent and reality star Giuliana Rancic has revealed that she has been diagnosed with breast cancer after discovering a tumor during a mammogram while going through in-vitro fertilization (her and husband Bill Rancic have struggled for quite some time to get pregnant, as documented in her reality show "Guiliana & Bill"). 

An emotional Guiliana made the announcement on the TODAY show this morning and, said that she will undergo surgery this week and then have six weeks of radiation therapy. 

UGH! This is just really sad!
"I still want this baby ... because this baby has saved my life," she said. "I truly feel God was looking out after me … If I had gotten pregnant later down the line, I could have been a lot sicker."
Women (especially), I can't stress enough how IMPERATIVE it is for us to get ourselves checked REGULARLY!

Praying for Guiliana and her husband Bill!

Jay-Z: Meet The Brooklyn Nets!


Big Boy Shyt!!!
Rap impresario Jay-Z stood on a dais across the street from the monstrous Barclays Center construction site on Monday morning and tried his very hardest to get everyone to forget about the NBA lockout. A minority owner of the New Jersey Nets, Jay-Z made the long-anticipated announcement that the Nets will be known as the Brooklyn Nets when they move into the arena before the start of the 2012-13 season. "I am absolutely humbled," said Jay-Z, who looked resplendent in a dark suit that featured a white pocket square. Jay-Z toured the site. Construction workers flocked for photos. He announced that he intends to christen the new arena with a series of concerts. "Maybe one, maybe two, maybe three—I sound like LeBron," he said, taking a swipe at LeBron James's much-maligned championship prediction with the Miami Heat. For one sun-splashed morning, the labor strife that continues to threaten the 2011-12 NBA season was a non-issue. Perhaps that was the hope. Organizers of the press conference had promoted it by claiming it would include a "major announcement." The event did mark a milestone of sorts: the start of a 12-month countdown until the arena's scheduled opening in September 2012. Borough president and tireless Brooklyn booster Marty Markowitz painted the entire project—buffeted for years by grassroots opposition—as a victory for his constituents, and as a loss for the cross-city New York Knicks, a team he re-branded as the "Manhattan Knicks." "For generations, Brooklyn-ites were belittled and disrespected," Markowitz said. "Disrespected and belittled, no more! Next year, when we formally open this arena, the ghosts of Ebbets Field will forever be lifted." Barclays Center CEO Brett Yormark rattled off the events to which the arena will play host: concerts, professional boxing cards, family shows. A person with direct knowledge of the league's plans confirmed Monday that the Atlantic-10 men's basketball tournament will move from Atlantic City to Barclays Center in 2013. Before he delivered his remarks, Jay-Z invited a group of students from George Westinghouse High School to join him on stage. He referenced his own childhood growing up in Brooklyn's Marcy Projects. He used the words "excited" and "pride" and "humbled," more than once. "I appreciate all the support from Brooklyn," Jay-Z said, "because without Brooklyn, I wouldn't be standing here, humbled." He spoke for a total of 1 minute, 43 seconds, and when he was done, he disappeared with his security detail. A phalanx of luxury vehicles awaited, engines running.
*standing ovation* What a GREAT accomplishment...clap for 'em, Dancers!

Whole Foods No Like Bethenny Frankel....Pulls Skinnygirl Products!


First and foremost, Bethenny's daughter Bryn is getting so big!

Natural and health food store chain Whole Foods have decided to pull all of Bethenny Frankel's Skinnygirl products. Why you ask? Well according to them, the store discovered that the ingredients in the drink were not natural. Ut Oh!!!

According to the Huffington Post:
“There are no ingredients listed on the bottle,” one nutritionist tells me. “Bethenny has been promoting the drink on and off-camera for years [as] full of 'natural flavors, lightly sweetened with agave nectar and made with premium Blue Agave clear tequila,' but that’s about all we know about its ingredients." The reality star, who has told many friends "you have to fake it until you make it," has been doing just that. “Whole Foods isn’t about faking anything,” a store worker, who did not have permission to speak on behalf of the company, told me. “The store prides itself in selling the best quality whole products that our high-end consumers expect. Not novelty products that are shaded with secrecy.” What’s amazing is how quiet this big blow to Frankel’s brand has remained. Neither The Skinnygirl website nor the Whole Foods site mentions the withdrawal. And no response was given from either the company or Frankel’s spokesperson.
In business and in life, there are always setbacks. Hopefully Bethenny can get over this hurdle!

Good for him! Now, make your wife, kids and momma proud and NEVER return, k?

T.I. was released from prison early Wednesday morning (August 31) and is on his way to a halfway house to serve out the rest of his 11-month sentence for probation violation. MTV News received confirmation from Federal Bureau of Prisons spokesman Chris Burke that T.I. was released from Forrest City Correctional Facility in Arkansas at 7:29 a.m. and is on his way to a community living facility. The name of the facility will not be released until after his arrival. The Atlanta rapper has been serving time for a probation violation stemming for his arrest in Los Angeles on drug charges last year. The King has already taken to Twitter to announce his return. "Feels great to be back where I belong...Back in the arms of those who need me the most," he tweeted from his verified @ account. "The storm is over & da sun back out. IT'S OUR TIME TO SHINE SHAWTY!!!!! Welcome to the beginning of our Happy Ending!!!!" Fans will be getting an intimate look at T.I.'s return to freedom in December thanks to a new show with VH1. In the still untitled series, viewers will get a behind-the-scenes look at T.I., and his wife Tameka 'Tiny' Harris, as he tries to walk the straight and narrow and stay out of prison for good. The series is set to premiere on December 5 at 10 p.m.
Way to get back to work, TIP! Congrats....
