Top Model Tranny Now Engaged


Former 'America's Next Top Model' contestant Isis King is now engaged to "her" boyfriend Desmond after three years of dating. Isis was the first transgender contestant who after the show wrapped, Tyra Banks took "her" to a surgeon who granted "her" wish of becoming a "real" woman. Sounds like Pinocchio to me.
“It’s almost like I was supposed to have it,” said King, who was born Darrell Walls. “Although it was swelling and bruising and everything, automatically I felt more comfortable. I was ready to walk around the house in my little shorts. I just felt more confident.” SOURCE

Oprah Deals With Another Sex Scandal

They are accused of sexually harassing their schoolmates after allegedly being caught fondling each other. A letter to the parents of one accused 15-year-old reads: "You have been found guilty of physical contact of a sexual nature with another pupil on campus, harassment, bullying other girls on campus and of being dishonest by not telling investigators the whole truth", reports local weekend newspaper Afrikaans on Sunday.

With all of it's problems, should this school be shut down? SOURCE

"Kissing him wasn't bad at all. Justin's a sweetheart, and the whole shoot felt very organic. It all flowed so well........I met her, and she's very nice. I think she was cool (that I kissed her man). She seems like a confident girl, so there's nothing for her to worry about."

Michael Vick To Write Book?

Disgraced QB Michael Vick is said to be shopping a book around about his "life and crimes." Apparently it's supposed to be about his childhood in poverty to becoming one of the highest paid ball players then becoming a convicted felon. The commissioner of the NFL stated that Vick can only be reinstated back into the league if he shows high remorse for what he did. Maybe this is his way of showing that.

Snap Shots......

'High School Musical' star Vanessa Hudgens strolled the red carpet in this "interesting" get up at the Kids Choice Awards.
Jennifer Lopez was in Tokyo for handbag promotion. Nice shoes.
Tyra Banks received an award from GLAAD for an outstanding fivehead determination in educating the public about the lives of gay and transgender people.
One of my favorite fellow Chicagoans, Common, attended the Annual Jazz in the Gardens event held in Miami.
Usher was also on hand at the Kids Choice Awards. I wonder why he didn't bring his family this time. Isn't Usher V about 2-years-old now?
Cameron Diaz finished sliding into 3rd base to attend The Kids Choice Awards in these ripped up jeans.

WTFiles!?!?

Rihanna's beatdown by Chris Brown not only caused headlines, now it's inspiring art. L.A.-based pop artist Sham Ibrahim's new portrait of the "Disturbia" hitmaker is based on the now infamous police photo showing the singer bruised and bloodied. But Sham's intent is not to raise awareness about, let's say, domestic violence. Instead, his reasons for creating the Andy Warhol-like piece—which is featured in the World of Wonder Storefront Gallery's new group show, Name That 'Toon, opening tonight in Hollywood—are quite simple… "I thought the bruises in the police photo were interesting shapes to draw," he says. "And it was cool to color them pink and blue. Those are two of my favorite colors."
Um, OK.
The 24-inch by 36-inch piece was made by transferring custom colorized blow-ups of digital tracings of the police pic onto canvas. "There is no message to any of my art," he says. "It's meant to look cool hanging on your wall and that's it! I'm not into deep meanings."
Hey, at least he's honest.

Is America Becoming A Police State?



The personal computer may soon be not-so-private, with the U.S. and some European nations working on laws allowing them access to search the content held on a person's hard drive.President Obama's administration is keeping unusually tight-lipped on the details, which is raising concerns among computer users and liberty activists.Almost everyone today owns a music player and a laptop. But what if the Government decided to allow itself to access these personal devices for no specific reason whatsoever?

Big brother is watching.

"There's a line that you cross"

She's Baaaaaaack

Tiffany Pollard aka New York will be back on VH1 this May for her upcoming show titled "New York Goes To Work."

After her rollercoaster journey in New York Goes to Hollywood, Tiffany found out that the acting world is harsh and landing roles isn’t always so easy. So what is a girl to do? Every actress needs a day job, even the queen of reality. Believe it or not, Tiffany will be trying to find a J-O-B…with your help! Each week America will choose from a list of three possible job opportunities and vote via their mobile phones by texting which job they would like to see Tiffany try. Will she be a Cal Trans sewer worker, a mortuary beautician, or a fast food employee? It will be up to you. And don’t think it will be easy for Tiffany. She’ll be worked, in all aspects of the job! Why again is she doing this? For the money of course. If she can impress her new employers, she’ll receive a $5,000 bonus each week. But, if she quits, fails, or gets fired, she’ll get absolutely nothing.

I didn't care much for that Jay-Z lookin' bish's last show, but still, you know what this means, right? More Sister Patterson!

In The News: Babies Having Babies

We all remember the report from England where a 13 year baby faced baby believed that he impregnated his little fast assed girlfriend. But after the report went public, a sh*tload of young boys started claiming that they tapped that too. Alfie's father then demanded that his kid take a paternity test.

"It had not even crossed Alfie’s mind whether Chantelle had not been faithful to him," his mother Nicole said.The Daily Mirror reports the test has proven the infant is not Alfie's — a finding that is likely to leave the boy devastated.

Jada Pinkett Smith Speaks On Open Marriage Rumors

I remember how many people took Will Smith's quote about getting to a certain point in his marriage, that he could tell his wife when he needed to "have sex" with someone else a bit out of context, and started believing that they had an open marriage, even going as far as saying that Will has tapped co-stars in recent movies. Well, Jada recently addressed those rumors saying:

"I definitely respect and understand people's curiosity, but people, they have to trust me when I speak on my truth...If I say to you, 'I don't have an open marriage,' 'No, we're not gay,' and you don't trust that, well then there's nothing that I really have to say to anybody about anything, because at the end of the day, I'm living my life, and I'm happy."

The Three Stooges Movie?

Hollywood always has to f*ck with the classics, huh? According to reports, MGM studios and the Farrelly Brothers are about to make a film adaption of "The Three Stooges" and they have made a determination for the cast. Playing Larry will be Sean Penn, Jim Carrey will be Curly, and Benicio Del Torro as Moe? Keep in mind that the movie will not be a biopic but a comedy. I can see Jim Carrey in the movie, I think it'll be a strech to imagine Sean Penn, a two-time Oscar winner, in a comedy. But Benecio Del Toro? I don't get it.
