The Dirty Laundry for August 20, 2010
The Dirty Laundry
Ne-Yo Wants To Design Hats
Well we all know that Ne-Yo loves wearing hats, mainly because he’s got a MEAN receding hairline. Now he wants to make some money off the rest of the baldin’ brothas in the world. He told MTV that he wants to design his own line of hats!
Today Is Decision Day For Wyclef
Speaking of receding hairlines, Wyclef should be hearing a decision today in whether he is eligible to run for President of Haiti. He said he’ll respect the decision either way, but if he’s not approved, he’ll continue to do for Haiti.
Lauryn Hill Hits The Charts
Another Fugees alumni is also making headlines. Miss Lauryn hill is back in a big way! Her new single, “Reppercusions,” is her first song to hit the Billboard 100 chart in more than 10 years! Congrats L-Boogie!
Shyne Wants Cash Money!
Speaking of comebacks, Shyne is trying to work his out since being released from prison. He’s talking about hooking up with Cash Money for one of his upcoming albums. Here’s a clip of him talking about it…
Lil Wayne and Baby are snatching up everybody!
Mashonda Confirms Swizz Is The Daddy
Speaking of Weezy, Swizzy aka Swizz Beats is on his heels when it comes to making babies with different women! Mashonda, his ex-wife, confirmed that he does have a love child with a Russian singer. During an interview, Mashonda said, “I hope all the children involved will grow together in unity.” Awww, that’s so special! But let’s do the math real quick…Swizz had a son before he married Mashonda, then he had a son with Mashonda, he has a daughter with the Russian chick and the one Alicia Key’s is carrying makes four babies with four different women! Sounds like a great catch Alicia! Way to go!
Antwaun Cook Speaks
Speaking of another great catch, Fantasia’s alleged boyfriend, Antwaun Cook, has released a statement through his lawyer. It says, “He knew Fantasia Barrino but the failure of his marriage is no way blamed on anyone except the two people that were a part of the union.” Fantasia, meanwhile, says that Cook told her he was separated. Women lie…men lie…
Black Men Have Never Been Sexy
Well Idris Elba is a liar! He told Upscale Magazine and I quote, “Black men have never been sexy.” Hmmmm, I gotta disagree with that, especially when it’s coming from a sexy Black man!
TI’s New Project
Speaking of sexy Black men, TI, who is definitely one of them, announced that he’s working on a new project. Here’s a clip of him talking about it…
Yung Joc’s Dogs Are Outta Control
Another ATLien got into a bit of trouble recently. Yung Joc was cited by Georgia officials after two of his Pitbulls (not to be confused with Pitballs, LOL) escaped and attacked a neighbor’s dog!
J-Lo Needs Help
If you like to fetch, you could become Jennifer Lopez’s dog…um…I mean assistant! J-Lo, the diva of all divas, is looking for someone who is willing to work 72 hours a week, change diapers, cook and be resourceful in foreign countries! Yup, if you can do all that for $55-65k, you’re hired!
I’m Yasmin Young and that’s The Dirty Dirty, No Detergent baby! For even more, tune in to The Morning Maddhouse at 7:10 am on Power 98!

The Lowdown For June 30, 2010
Rihanna Cancels Seattle Show
Amidst rumors that she trashed one of her hotel rooms, Rihanna has canceled an upcoming show in Seattle. The singer has already canceled shows in Texas and Arizona, and called off this Friday's show at the White River Amphitheatre. Show promoter Live Nation released a statement saying the decision was made because of "production changes" but many speculate the cut was made because of poor ticket sales.
Jay-Z, Beyonce and Rihanna Boycott BET & Chris Brown?
Jay-Z, Beyonce and Rihanna reportedly upset about Chris Brown being included in the performances for the BET Awards. An insider says told MediaTakeout.com, "It was a matter of principal.

BET Awards Show Tops Ratings Again

Will Lauryn Hill Make a Comeback?
Lauryn Hill could finally be ready to make her comeback. She tells National Public Radio, "I think it's time." But she also said it’s been a long road, "The support system that I needed was not necessarily in place... Oftentimes, the machine can overlook the need to take care of the people who produce the sounds that have a lot to do with the health and well-being of society, or at least some aspect of society. And it's important that people be given the time that they need to go through, to grow."
Eminem’s Entourage Conflict

Here’s what Swizzy owes The Man:
$652,727 to the IRS, which filed a lien against Swizzy on June 3 for income taxes from 2008;
$162,300 to the state of New York, which filed a tax warrant against Swizz and his ex-wife, Mashonda, in February of 2009;
Another $556,986 to the IRS from a lien filed against him and Mashonda in August of 2008 for 2007 income taxes;
And yet another $842,645 to the IRS from a lien filed against Swizzy and Mashonda in March of 2008 - this time in New Jersey (the other two were in New York).
Dayum Alicia, way to pick em!

The Lowdown for June 9, 2010
Slim Thug Says Black Women Ain’t Shizz!
Slim Thug probably should think before he speaks. He told Vibe Magazine, “It’s hard to trust a black woman because a lot of Black women’s mind frame is that a man gotta do everything for her.” He also said, “My girl is Black and White; I guess the half White in her is where she still cooks and do all the stuff I say, so we make it.” Sound to me like Slim Thug is an idiot! Moving on to important people…
Lauryn Hill’s Comeback
All you L. Boogie fans will be pleasantly surprised; she’s crawled out from under her rock and she’ll be hitting the stage soon! She’s officially joined the line up for the 7th Annual Rock the Bells Show.
50 Cent’s 2 Cents On The Barbie Beef
50 Cent chimed in with his 2 cents about the Barbie beef between Lil’ Kim and Nicki Minaj. He said he thinks Kim is more heated about the whole situation because Diddy is working with Nicki. He also took a dig Diddy, saying he’s working with Nicki and other artists because his music sucks right now! Sounds like more beef is on the way!
Lil Wayne’s & Drake To Team Up For Album
Lil Wayne and Drake announced that they will be doing an album together when Wayne is released from Riker’s Island.
Mariah Gets Replaced
Well, I told you that Mariah Carey abruptly dropped out of Tyler Perry’s new film For Colored Girls, sparking speculation that’s she’s pregnant. Well, she’s been replaced! Thandi Newton has been cast in her place! I personally think it’s an improvement!
Is Kim Kardashian The Next Lara Croft?
Kim Kardashian may replace Angelina Jolie in the next Tomb Raider movie. Sources are saying Kimmy Cakes is at the top of the director’s list! Hmmm…That’s an interesting choice! We’ll see what happens.
Chris Brown’s Visa Declined
Well, Chris Brown’s visa has been declined! I’m not talking about his credit card, but his work visa to get into the UK. He was planning to perform over there, but that pesky felony assault conviction from last year is getting in the way. UK officials said, “We reserve the right to refuse entry to the U.K. to anyone guilty of a serious criminal offense!” Ouch! That’s gotta hurt!
More Drama Surrounding Gary Coleman’s Death
Gary Coleman’s ex-wife, Shannon Price has been kicked out of their Utah home, and she say’s its Gary’s former manager’s fault. She says she gave him some money to hire a lawyer because she wanted to make sure Gary’s wishes were respected…and all she got to show for it was to get kicked out of their house. Humm…Maybe that was what Gary wanted!
Is Allen Iverson Back In Love?
Word is that Allen Iverson and his wife Tawana are getting back together! Also, actress Tamala Jones was spotted looking real comfortable with Dallas Cowboys safety Ken Hamlin!
I’m Yasmin Young and that’s the Lowdown for today June 9th. For all the dirty dirty details tune in to The Maddhouse at 7:10 am.
