The Lowdown for August 11, 2010

The Dirty Laundry




Kanye West Back In With MTV?
Looks like Kanye West and MTV may have kissed and made up! According to a source, Yeezy will be performing at this year’s Video Music Awards…just one year after jack-moving the mic away from Taylor Swift. The VMAs air September 12!

Bow Wow’s New Role
Bow Wow is following in the footsteps of LL Cool J, Ludacris and Ice-T. It seems like his acting career is popping off more than his music career. He recently confirmed that he will be starring in the latest Tyler Perry movie, Madea’s Big Happy Family. The Lottery Ticket, starring Bow Wow, is in theaters August 20.

Did Kim K. & Reggie Bush Swap It Out?
TMZ is reporting that Kim Kardashian and Reggie Bush got into a drunken fight at Bobby McCray’s wedding. Supposedly Reggie was talking to her about getting back together but was getting more aggressive and had to be pulled away from Kim by bodyguard!! Wonder what Amber Rose thinks!?!

Waka’s Mama Calls Out Vibe Magazine
Waka Flocka’s mother and former manager, Deb Antney, is calling out Vibe Magazine, saying they twisted what Waka said about his and Gucci Mane’s relationship. Vibe reported that Waka said he and Gucci said they don’t talk anymore, but she’s saying he meant that they don’t talk as frequently. She also said she nor Waka have beef with Gucci. You can’t stop mama from speaking her mind!



G-Unit is Gagging Young Buck
One person that shouldn’t be speaking his mind is young Buck. Tony Yayo recently said that G-Unit has a gag order on Young Buck. But it hasn’t stopped him from talking about 50 Cent. Buck recently said that 50 is blackballing him by not approving any of buck’s features (he is still contractually obligated to g-Unit). Tony also said Young Buck shouldn’t even be talking about him because he doesn’t even have a chain! "N*gga don't even got no jewelry, man, get some new jewelry and then talk about me man. You know? Everything upgraded. I'm trying to figure out what to get, the four-door Porsche or the new Jag." Wow, drama…

Fantasia Overdoses!
Speaking of drama, Fantasia’s life has been full of it! Her manager confirmed that she overdosed on aspirin and a sleeping aid, possibly trying to commit suicide. She’s been catching heat lately for rumors that she’s been sleeping with a married man! Plus, her alleged boyfriend Antwuan Cook’s wife filed a lawsuit!

Here's the statement in its entirety:

Fantasia has always been an open book. Honesty, self-respect, and personal responsibility are values she wears proudly.

Fantasia believed Mr. Cook when he told her he was not happy in his marriage and his heart was not in it. She believed him when he told her he and Mrs. Cook separated in the late summer of 2009. She believed Mr. Cook when he told her he lived elsewhere.

He even took her there. One of Mr. Cook’s most redeeming qualities was his complete devotion to his children. Fantasia fell in love with Mr. Cook and believed that he loved her.

Fantasia and Mr. Cook dated on and off for about eleven months. The pressure of the constant media attention was hard on their relationship. Fantasia gave inconsistent interviews about the status of her relationship with Mr. Cook because sometimes they were on and sometimes they were off.

When they were on, they spent most of their time together when she was not traveling with work.
Fantasia read Mrs. Cook’s Complaint against Mr. Cook for the first time yesterday. She knows some of the allegations in Mrs. Cook's complaint are totally false. There are others she strongly doubts. There is plenty she does not know.

Fantasia is heartbroken and is sorry for any pain she may have caused.

Yesterday, she was totally overwhelmed by the lawsuit and the media attention. Last night, Fantasia was hospitalized. She took an overdose of aspirin and a sleep aid.

Her injuries are not life threatening. She was dehydrated and exhausted at the time. Fantasia is stable now. She will be released from the hospital soon. Fantasia is a fighter and a survivor . This is not the hardest thing Fantasia has endured.

Fantasia will be stronger, smarter, and better for it. Her work has always inspired her and served as a source of strength. Her new album, “Back To Me,” will be released on August 24th.

The lyrics to “I’m Here” say it best:
“I Believe I Have Inside Of Me
Everything That I Need To Live A Bountiful Life
With All The Love Inside Of Me
I’ll Stand As Tall As The Tallest Tree
And I’m Thankful For Each Day That I’m Given
Both The Easy And The Hard Ones I’m Livin’
But Most Of All
Yes, I’m Thankful For Lovin’ Who I Really Am”

Fantasia sends her praise to God and her eternal gratitude to her fans, friends, and family.

God is good.
