Boo Music: Laurie-Ann Gibson

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

OK, maybe we're late on this one but it's new to me! This is the single that is going to launch the career of choreographer Laurie Anne Gi... I'm sorry, I couldn't even type that with a straight face.

Anyway, I can't figure out if she's rapping or singing and between the yelling, talking in French, and whistle blowing, this song really pisses me off.



Good luck Laurie Anne!

Update:

Fresh from Crunk + Disorderly just posted a priceless video of my new favorite person: Boo Boo Kack.

PLEASE wait until about 48 seconds into it when she sings, "You know i'm a Wild Child!".



She said the meaning behind "Addictive" is whatever you do from your heart is going to be addictive. I think Laurie-Ann is addicted to stupid because I don't know anyone whose gonna drop no $100 on a generic metallic hoodie.

"Remember kids, if the haters come atcha' just say "Boom Boom Kack!" - Laurie-Ann

Watch out, she's got you in her clutches!




Rihanna looks like one of those gigantic dolls from a county fair with an oversize head that tips over when you set it down. Or a black Powerpuff Girl. Either way, she looks like she's going to eat these two tiny male designers at the Dsquared fashion show in Milan.

SPOILER ALERT: Karrine has done it again!




Karrine has let the cat out of the bag. In her megahit book "Confessions of a Video Vixen" KK exposed the identity of all of her conquests, except one whom she called "Papa". She refused to name the man who had done so much for her. But in her new book, "The Vixen Diaries", she lets all that sh*t go. Papa is declared to be none other than....


Method Man. Yep. That's who it is. Honestly, I'm a little disappointed. After all that bragging in the August King magazine about bedding kings and presidents and sh*t, I thought the name would be bigger. I guess it's bad for him, but people have been saying it was him all along.

But as with the others, his ain't the only name she's giving up. Miss KK has admitted (bragged about?) getting it on with none other than...


Chris Brown.It's a sad statement about my obsession with youth culture, but this is waaay more interesting to me than Papa. He's called "Baby Boy" in her new book.

An excerpt describing their first meeting:

He is beautiful and tall, with a smile that would melt any girl's heart, but he is young, very young. As we were being introduced in the midst of a crowded room, eyes on us, I was afraid to look at him. He had an air about himself that I couldn't comprehend. For someone so young, he carried himself like an experienced man ... The young man had class and smarts - and by the end of the night, he had me.

And their first "encounter":
He planted his lips on mine, and his sweet kiss extinguished my fight as I lay on my back, inviting him to mount me, to make love to me, to make it impossible to do without him from this night forward.
Slow and sensual, he moved inside me. Then I rolled on top of him, surprised by his size, unwilling and unable to handle it all. Our eyes were locked and fixed on each other as we explored each other's bodies and needs; I felt him and he felt me, and then it was over.

Oh man, I am eating this sh*t up with a spoon. I'm sorry, but I can't WAIT for this book!

*On a related note, rumors are flying that KK is now engaged...to Family Matters' Darius McCrary, aka Eddie Winslow. More coming soon!

Let's Get Serious About Butter Booty

Let's take a minute from all the celebrity gossip and the jokes and talk about something real. Something that affects so many women across the country, even the world. Butterbooty. When a chicks bad on all points... but-her-booty.



[via: Think2wice]

I've heard about a drug being created that might help called Nasatol. It's for women with No-Ass-At-All. Side effects may include:

- Self esteem
- Higher paying job
- Gaining an "ugly friend"
- Having to buy new jeans
- Being harassed at the club
- Free entrance into the club
- A baby daddy

It's worth it.

OMFG! Tyler Perry IS Jill Scott

Brace yourself. I just had an epiphany that I had to share when I was walking through the subway and saw a poster for Tyler Perry's new film Why Did I Get Married?.

Has anyone noticed the striking resemblance between Jill Scott and Tyler Perry? How "Madea" conveniently is missing from this film? How Tyler Perry is never seen at any Jill Scott concerts?!?

Jennifer Hudson Beats Beyonce' AGAIN!

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket


Now this is definitely from the rumor mill but the Russ Par Morning Show reported today:


Word has it that Beyonce was set to be cast in the Sex and the City movie, but due to her management insisting that she wear only House of Dereon clothing she lost out....to Jennifer Hudson. This actually comes from Alfredas on the Russ Parr Morning Show this morning


Almost sounds too good to be true but I really don't think that it's too far fetched. You know MaMa Tina is pretty damn pressed to sell some clothes and i'm sure Sex and the City who is known for their fashion sense really wasn't going to be showin' hood fab Tina Knowle originals.

Diddy and J.Lo together again-- In the Restaurant Graveyard




That's a wrap for Diddy's New York flagship version of his restaurant, Justin's. The music mogul's restaurant venture has gone the way of an overcooked piece of fried chicken: it's done. I, for one, have dined at that particular restaurant and frankly, it was really overpriced and not even good. So I'm not suprised. But I guess it sucks to have to close down one of your ventures, so I guess that's why reps are saying that they're just "looking to relocate elsewhere in Manhattan."

A Crip and a Blood Work Together, and Nobody Dies





Okay, VH1 has officially gotten the title for most outrageous shows. Where do they come up with this stuff? On a new show they call "Bridging the Gap", hip-hop artists like Queen Latifah and Eve will talk about how they've influenced each other. This show seems pretty interesting. The first two episodes feature Snoop and The Game working on a new track called "To the Top". It seems like a good look for VH1, and a step up from the network's usual depiction of rappers, a la "Flavor of Love".

This is REALLY starting to get out of hand

Paris' transformation from this...

To this...

Is finally complete. "Reformed" party girl-nightvision superstar-ex con Paris Hilton has finally arrived where all her white formerly-wild female foremothers already are...black babies.


The Heiress is going to Rwanda. That's right, according to E!Online, she is going as "part of her new, post-jail commitment to bring the spotlight to what she feels are important causes around the world."
Hilton told reporters and photogs that she would be on her way to the war and poverty-stricken country as soon as she finished her new role in the...ahem...horror-musical flick 'Repo! The Genetic Opera.'
Move over Madonna. Get lost A. Jolie. Adoption for the Heiress can't be too far behind.

Jay Continuing to Slowly Take over the world during "retirement"

What do these two...

and this guy...




have in common? They could both be livin it up in...wait for it...Rocawear Field. The Grown Man is trying to own stadiums, ya'll! He put in a bid for New Jersey's Meadowlands Arena, home to the New York Giants. Part of me is proud, but the other part is thinking, is this a little ricidulous? Rocawear Field? I can just hear the fans now..."Yeah, I can't wait for the game at Roca...Rokin..Rocksteady field."
Hey, Jay, do your thing. He already owns part of the Nets, so this might just be a logical next step. And hey, Rocawear Field is a whole heck of a lot better than Izod or Southpole Field, which are the mougul's main rivals for the aquisition. A decision could be made as soon as next Friday...be on the lookout.

Partying With His Daddy

Something weird was going on at Lil Wayne's b-day in Houston...

Is that a cake? Cause, just a hint, Wayne, no one wants to eat ice.

Unless, of course, you have ghetto empty styrofoam cups to put it in...

There doesn't seem to be any food or drinks at this party!

It's got everything you need at a major rap star's party;grills, ice, big booty girls,hangers-on, yes men...

And of course, your Daddy.


I guess nothing's missing after all.

Cassie takes Pretty Pictures, Keeps Mouth Shut


You know how Diddy likes to pick up girls with absolutely no voice and give them a "career"?Some of them should just stick to what their good at. Like Cassie, who used to model for Abercrombie and Delia's. These pics are fire.

Cassie modeling:thumbs up. Cassie singing and dancing like a little anorexic bird trying to fly: thumbs DOWN.

Don't You Ever For A Second Get to Thinkin...



So pretty much everyone knows about J-Hud being cast as SJP's assistant on the new SATC movie, which started filming last week. But now sources close to the film's production are saying that the orignal first choice was Bey. Apparently all was well until contract negotiation started, and Bey insisted on a totally Dereon wardrobe for her character. She threatened to walk, and who did they choose to replace her? Old frenemy J-Hud. Oh, lord. Can't wait for the Essence article on this one.

Okay, I understand major A-list players like Shaq,Mary J., and LiLo getting their birthday parties sponsored by the likes of Boost Mobile and Cadilliac. Clearly, aligning yourself with a star like that is good for your company. But Maria Sharapova, Mario and Dannielyn Hope Marshall Stern Birkhead? Really?A tennis player, a B-list R&B singer and a baby? I mean, I know she was born in media circus led by a hoochie Mama and eighty-seven baby daddys, but selling the rights to the child's first birthday to Entertainment Tonight? Ridiculous.

Alicia Keys' New Album Cover/ Papoose Gets Dropped from Jive!

The cover of Alicia Keys' new album As I Am made its way on the net


Now for some 'not-so-pop culture but notable in Hip-Hop' news Papoose has been dropped from Jive.




New York's most talked about up-and-coming mixtape rapper got his $1.5 million dollar advance (which was mostly raped by his management and Kay Slay) and was released a year later after building virtually no buzz outside the mixtape circuit that he already had on lock. Kay Slay was quoted as saying that it was hte best thing that could've happened...maybe he is right because Jive's track record with Hip-Hop artists is the worst. Once that advance runs out Papoose could always go do Geico commericals for a living.

Wear black today for Jena 6




This post is a break from our usual pop culture rants. We must address a more serious (and historic) issue that is happening right now. Today is a historic day in what many are calling the makings of a 21st Century Civil Rights movement. This time it's about disparities in the legal system in this country. There is a massive march happening in Jena, LA as we speak (CNN is reporting thousands of people). If you couldn't make it to Jena wearing black on Sept. 20th (today) to stand against racism and spread the word on what's going on.

The Numbers Are In...Kanye Kills 50




Okay I just realized that I'm about to post what will become the 5th straight post about 50 Cent or Kanye but this is the last one from me. I promise. "What you want me to do? I'm sorry!" The numbers are in and Kanye West wins. He can offically talk sh-t because his Graduation album outsold 50 Cent's Curtis by almost 300,000 copies. According to Soundscan, Graduation sold 956,936 units in its first week, just missing the platinum mark. 50 Cent debuted with 691,304 units, which are also impressive numbers, but the bottomline is-- HE LOST! HE LOST! NANNY NANNY BOO BOO!... I know Kanye's immature, whinning ass was in his house gloating for hours with them ugly ass air conditioner vent glasses on and his Louis Vuitton man purse.

Fiddy refers to self in third person, still no one cares




This is seriously the last thing I'm posting about this, unless Fiddy and Kanye physically fight or somebody gets sued, because I am really over it. But here goes: Fiddy is still whining. That's it. That's the whole story.
In an interview in British magazine Uncut, Mr. Cent was quoted as saying that that Kanye beating him in record sales was due to Def Jam padding soundscan numbers. "He's never had a fraction of the sales 50 Cent has," Curtis said. Mr. Cent's representatives are also confriming that he has cancelled his European concert tour due to "a last minute, unforeseen and unanticipated change in his schedule."
In unrelated news, Kanye's latest debuted at number one in the UK this week.
Whatever...*Rolls eyes and mentally moves on.*

"I Get Money (Billion Dollar remix)"- 50, Hov and Diddy!!!


Allhiphop.com posted the remix 50's ridicu-crazily hot single "I Get Money" today. The joint features n*ggas who actually gets money-- like Hip-Hop's Forbes list #1,#2, and #3 worth. Nobody else qualifies for this song except those three. 50 and Jay kill it, obviously, and Sean Jean still can't seem to write a check big enough to make his raps sound any good but he definitely gets money and runs NewYork so he belongs on the track. Everytime I hear this f-ckin song I can't help but spazz out and do he "Yayo" dance.

And you thought Kanye was the only one who just wouldn't shut the hell up...




One Trick Pony just refuses to admit defeat. This man is saying that just because Kanye has outsold him by almost 200,000 records, that doesn't mean Kan-yeze will win in the long run. "[The sales] can't be considered [any one way] anyway because it's just a few days out," the head gorilla said in a recent interview. "I guess [the music industry] would consider me to be a hip-hop favorite because of my sales history, and people like to root for the underdog."
That must be why Fiddy is whining even more than his latest rival because he didn't get enough screen time at the VMAs than him. He alleges that he only got one minute and twenty seconds of screen time. Fiddy, if you're better like you say you are, isn't that all you need?

50 Cent Calling It Quits?



During an interview with a Springfield, Massachusetts news station 50 Cent publicly stated that his music career is most likely a wrap after this album. He essentially said that he lost his motivation to continue to sell records. He thinks that he's leaving as the best in the game (not according to MTV, but who's opinion really matters these days anyway?). Just think of his $100 million dollar Vitamin Water payoff as his lottery and him choosing to quit his day job as a rapper.

I know all the talk about the VMAs was surrounded around Britney's career-crashing performance and Kanye's "tired of this sh*t" rants but is it just me or did Dr. Dre look like he was the surprise presenter because he was just released from prison two hours earlier? Homie was on swole! pause. I'm mad that he is keeping me waiting for this 10-years-in-the-making Detox album but glad that it's, in his words, "coming". Dre the world needs Detox!





And what's up with all these 40-year-old rappers getting all diesel in sh*t? Who's f*ckin with Melle Mel, LL, and Dre to the point that they look like they wanna take over the WWE? I guess age is the culprit.
