Wesley Snipes To Join Lil Wayne?
Lil Wayne may have some company behind bars soon! Wesley Snipes is finally going to jail. He was convicted of tax invasion a few years ago and had been appealing every since. But, the appeals court has finally spoken!

Bushwick Bill Phones Home!
Poor Bushwick Bill, he's getting cut short...or at least his stay here in the United States is! He's facing deportation back to Jamaica! He was in immigration court on Thursday supposedly because of being arrested and charged with a crime!

Life Is Too Short To Be Fighting.
It must be something in the water, cus all these 90's rappers are in legal trouble. Too Short was arrested in Boise, Idaho last week after allegedly getting into a fight at the Knitting Factory. He's charged with 3 counts of misdemeanor battery.

Rihanna Speaks Up!
Speaking of Battery, Rihanna is denying rumors that she reached out to Chris Brown after the BET Awards. Her people are saying the story is absolutely not true!

PETA Is Coming For Janet
One thing that is true is that Janet Jackson is the new face of fur manufacturer Black Glama. PETA, or the people for the ethical treatment of animals is pretty pissed! A PETA spokeswoman said..."It's amazing what celebrities will do when their careers are on a downside, but we didn't think that Janet was this desperate! WOW! Well, I personally think grown people should be able to dress themselves how they see fit...

Christina Had A Dream
Speaking of grown folks, we know The Dream was doing grown folks things with his personal assistant and not his wife Christina Milian! Well, he's finally telling some of the truth about his separation. He issued a statement saying that he takes "full responsibility for misleading everyone into thinking everything was fine and ok when we knew problems misted for a while. And, Christina’s camp is on the offense, they said that The Dream was controlling and sabotaging her career! Mark my words, this is going to get ugly.
