New Video: Lil Kim - Black Friday

The Dirty Laundry for February 17, 2011

The Dirty Laundry

World War Waka Flocka
Waka just can’t seem to get away from trouble! He’s one of four people being questioned by police after a shooting on the eastside of Charlotte, although police say he’s not a suspect. But they are investigating what part he and his crew played in the shootout. He reportedly stopped at the Car Stereo Warehouse on Independence yesterday afternoon to get some upgrades to his tour bus, but instead a group of guys drove into the parking lot and started shooting. One person was shot in the shoulder! Police are still trying to figure out what happened.

Did Lil’ Kim Really Sell 113,000 Copies “Black Friday?”
I’m trying to figure out if Lil’ Kim is lying about how many copies of her mixtape she sold. She’s claiming that her “Black Friday” mixtape sold 113,000 copies at $10 a pop through PayPal. The Queen B tweeted that this makes her the “Number-one seller on PayPal ever.” I highly doubt that. But if you did order the mixtape, you’ll have to wait for it to come in the mail, there aren’t any downloads! Men lie, women lie, numbers don’t…supposedly.

Lil’ Wayne Is Now A Guinness World Record Holder
Lil’ Wayne’s numbers are saying that he’s more popular than popular cookies! Weezy went head-to-head against Oreo cookies to see who could bag the Guinness World Record for the most Facebook “Likes” to a post in 24 hours. After 24 hours Oreo received 114, 000 likes and Wayne got 588,000!

Fiddy says Dr. Dre is upset with him for launching his own line of head phones, which are directly competing with Dr. Dre’s “Beats by Dr. Dre” line.

Suge Knight's Car Gets Impounded
Another one of Lil’ Kim’s enemies has hit another rough spot. Suge Knight got his pimped-out black truck impounded by police in Beverly Hills yesterday after he was busted for driving with a suspended license! Suge apparently doesn’t learn because he was busted for the same reason last year!

Flavor Flav’s New Reality Show
While Suge is doing stupid stuff, Flavor Flav is trying to get smarter! He’s pitching a new reality show that will follow him earning his high school diploma in the same Iowa town where he opened his chicken joint!

Christina Milian Wants Her Part Of The Deal
Speaking of an unhappy Valentine’s Day! I’m quite sure it will be just that for The Dream and Christina Milian! They’re both fighting over Bieber! Not in a creepy child molester way, but over royalties from Justin’s song “Baby,” which the Dream co-wrote. He promised to pay Christina 10% of his publishing stake as part of their divorce settlement. But now X-Tina is asking for a bigger cut and The Dream is trying to stop all payments while they renegotiate! Oh this is going to get ugly.

Mariah Carey & Nick Cannon Will Be Expanding Their Family

Behind The Scenes: Lil Kim - Black Friday

The Dirty Laundry for January 4, 2011

The Dirty Dirty

Waka Isn’t Starting 2011 Off Well
It’s a new year and most people are looking forward to making 2011 good, except...Waka Flocka. Oh no, his 2011 is getting off to a bad start! He recently turned himself to police after they raided his house last month. He's facing gun and weapons charges, a probation violation and allegations that he's involved in gang crime. His mom said he turned himself in because "he wanted to do the right thing and didn't want to run."

Gucci May Be Heading Back To Prison
Bad judgment seems to run in the family! A judge recently recommended that Gucci Mane spend a year in prison for violating probation. Guch was arrested in November for reckless driving and assault. Cops had to pepper-spray him to get him under control and he was also detained at Waka'a house when it got raided! What a family tree!

Lil Kim Is Still Going Hard On Nicki
It looks like Waka and Gucci have company in starting the New Year out wrong! Instead of celebrating and focusing on herself, Lil Kim spent her time on stage at a show focused on Nicki Minaj. She was performing in Massachusetts when she stopped the show to take shots at Nicki. Ok Kim, maybe in 2011, if you stopped focusing on Nicki and focused on yourself, you could maybe possibly make another hit! I’m just sayin'…

Nicki Minaj Dissed Her Fiancé
Speaking of Nicki, Mediatakeout.com is reporting that she dissed her fiancé S. Beezy to be up under Drake! MTO's snitch says Nicki and Beezy were having a good time at a New Year's Eve party…that is until Drake walked in! As soon as Drizzy walked in, Nicki hit groupie mode and left her fiancé hangin’!

Jazmine Sullivan Is Taking A Break From Music
And leaving folks hanging is exactly what Jazmine Sullivan is doing! The diva-in-training Tweeted that she's walking away from music! She said, "I'm making an official announcement that I am taking a break from music. I'm trying to figure out who I am...w/ out a mic, paper or pen."

Soulja Boy Wrote One Hit In 2K10
Speaking of paper and pen, Soulja Boy apparently did put his to good use…and no I'm not talking about for his double wood album, but rather for Willow Smith's song "Whip My Hair." Soulja tweeted, "Yes it's true I wrote ‘Whip My Hair’ for Willow Smith. That's why she says hop out the bed turn my swag on." Well, at least something is working out for Soulja!

New Releases
As for new releases, it looks like we'll have to wait a little while longer for Lloyd's new album, "King of Hearts," it's been pushed back to March 22.

Lil' Kim Disses Nicki Minaj & Keyshia Cole

This is just getting borning now Kim...let it rest and go get some more surgery!

Sneak Peek At Kanye And Nicki’s Album Sales
If you were wondering how Nicki’s debut album “Pink Friday” did. I got a sneak peek at what the numbers are looking like. “Pink Friday” should have sold around 400,000 units by the time the official numbers come out, making it the best sales week for a female hip hop artist since Lauryn Hill in 1998. Kanye’s “My Dark Twisted Fantasy” is expected to sell over a half-a-million copies in its first week.

Fantasia Testifies In Antwuan Cook's Divorce Hearing
I told you last week that Fantasia admitted to aborting her baby with Antwaun Cook, her married boyfriend. Well here’s the audio and transcript from her testimony:



Here are key parts of the court proceedings Monday, including Fantasia admitting to the abortion:

Lawyer: "See if you recognize this as being a letter you wrote to Mr. Cook on May 10th 2010" (inaudible)

(inaudible) Fantasia reads the letter to the court. "I want you. I pray every night that I can be in your life forever, be your friend, lover, prayer partner, wife and MOTHER OF YOUR CHILDREN. As long as I can have you I will be the happiest girl in the world." (inaudible)

Lawyer: "Ms Barrino, when you wrote this letter, you said you wanted to be the mother of his children, is this right?"
Fantasia: "Uh huh."

Lawyer: "Were you pregnant with his child when you wrote this letter?"
Fantasia: "No, no."

Lawyer: "Is it true at one point you told him you had an abortion?"
Fantasia's Lawyer: Objection!

(ARGUMENTS BETWEEN LAWYERS)

Lawyer: "Ms Barrino, isn't it true that you told Mr. Cook that you had aborted his child?"
Fantasia: "When I wrote this letter I was speaking in future references. Like, one day, I would love to be all of these things that I wrote. I was not pregnant with his child."

Lawyer: "But did you tell Mr. Cook you aborted his child?"
Fantasia: "I did, yeah."

Lawyer: "When did you tell Mr. Cook you had aborted his child?
Fantasia: "I'm not sure."

Lawyer: "When did you abort his child?"
Fantasia: "It hasn't been too long ago."

Lawyer: "What's not too long ago?
Fantasia: "I'm not sure."

Lawyer: "I'm sorry?"
Fantasia: "I'm not sure. Probably when all this other stuff was happening."

Lawyer: "Is it your testimony that this summer?"
Fantasia: "I'm not really sure."

Lawyer: "How close in proximity was it to Mr. Cook leaving? In June 2010."
Fantasia: "It was right after he left his home."

Lawyer: "Mrs. Cook contends that she separated from Mr. Cook in June 16th 2010. How close in proximity to her date of separation did youcontend that you aborted his child?"
Fantasia: "I'm not sure. Probably August when the other stuff happened."

DMX Spent Thanksgiving In Jail
It seems like most people had a good or at least productive Thanksgiving…well everyone except DMX!

Faith Evans told a British newspaper “The family- we have an idea of what happened….we have an idea, though we don’t know if it will ever be solved in the judicial system.” It has already been 13 years, it’s sad, but she’s probably right!

Weezy Is Back In Full Effect
And as promised, here are some details about Weezy’s weekend. His first stop after his release from Riker’s Island was a private gathering with his friends and family. Then he checked into the luxurious Palace Hotel, where he spent hours of spent hours getting his dreads styled. Friday night he was kickin’ it courtside at the New Orleans/Miami game.

Dwight Howard Wants His Baby’s Mom To Pay Up


Oh the drama! NBA star Dwight Howard says he’s sick of his media-hungry baby’s mama, Royce Reed, talking trash about him, which is supposedly a violation of their court settlement. So now he’s suing her for 500 million dollars! Wonder who’s going to foot that bill…

Well give up the applause for Cassie! She finally got a backbone! MediaTakeOut is reporting that she dumped her sugar Diddy…uh I mean boyfriend, Diddy! Word is, she got sick of Diddy’s cheating ways and realized she could never have him all to herself. Hmmm…I give it about a month, then, when the money runs out…(in my Tony Montana voice) another Quaalude and she’ll be back!

Kanye Is At The Center Of A Girl Fight
Speaking of relationship drama, Kanye is at the center of a girl fight!! I told you earlier that Yeezy was dating Melody Thorton from the pussy cat dolls. Well, she reportedly wouldn’t go with Ye to New York Fashion Week because she found out his ex, Amber Rose, was going to be there!

Kanye Points Blame In His Mother’s Death
You would never believe who Yeezy says is responsible for his mother’s death. Donda West, died due to complications from extensive cosmetic surgery which aggravated her heart condition. And Ye blames that on the city of Los Angeles. He told XXL Magazine, "When I moved to LA, she moved to LA. And she wound up in a place that would eat her alive. Even if I stayed in New York, it wouldn't have been like that. If I had lived in New York, she'd still be here."

Kid Cudi Arrested
Kid Cudi was arrested in NYC and charged with felony criminal mischief and possession of a controlled substance! Word is that Cudi took a 24-year-old woman’s phone and slammed it so hard it smashed into pieces. He also allegedly broke the door of her apartment off its hinges. Daaaaayyyyuuum! Cops arrived and found a glass bottle of a controlled substance. Hmmm…I wonder what it was! I’ll keep you posted!

Nicki Minaj’s Subliminal Shots
Lil' Kim has finally given of an explanation for her beef with Nicki Minaj. She said, "For the last year, she has been subliminally taking shots at me. Subliminally taking shots at the other girls in the industry... She said, 'Being that the other rap chicks in the game ain't got [nothing] to do right now, when I'm by the pool, they can feed me grapes'... I keep my ears to the street at all the time." She also took shots at Drake, calling him a p*&%y for coming at her!

Dre’s Chronic Flame is Ashed
A California judge has thrown out Dr. Dre's claims that Death Row's release of The Chronic Re-Lit violated his rights of trademark and publicity. Last week, Judge Christina Snyder applied the so-called Monty Python rule, after a 1976 case where a defendant extensively edited the comedy series to air it on television. Snyder ruled that unlike in the Monty Python case, the alterations to the new release were "minor and inconsequential." Snyder did allow Dre's claim that he hasn't been paid royalties on the album since splitting from Death Row in 1996.

Joe Jackson Blames Katherine For Michael’s Death
Michael Jackson’s father, Joe Jackson, blames MJ’s mother, Katherine Jackson, for his death! Hoe told Britain's News of the World he'd been telling Katherine for months to get MJ into drug rehab. He says, "If she'd done what I asked, Michael would be here today. I am incensed with her. She could have made a difference."

Who’s Yo Daddy: The Brian McKnight Edition
Miriam Lee filed paternity and child support documents in Orange County, FL last year claiming that Brian McKnight is the father of her 14-year-old son.
Because Brian never responded to the claims, the judge ruled that he is the father and he's been ordered to pay over $341,640 in back child support. Brian’s rep, said however, "The judgment in Florida was a default judgment made without Brian present." He's still looking to establish paternity, and is awaiting the results of a recent test." Maybe she should have taken him on Maury! Can you imagine…“Brian, you ARE the father!”

Cleveland Show Returning
Even though the second season hasn’t aired yet, Fox has renewed the third season of “The Cleveland Show,” the “Family Guy” spinoff! The upcoming “Cleveland” second season will feature guest voices Justin Timberlake, T-Pain, Tony Hawk, Snoop Dogg and the cast of “Glee.” I’m not a fan of the show, but those that are should be happy!

Box office Report
The Karate Kid kicked butt this weekend, brining in $56 million, more than double The A-Team's disappointing $26 million. And Shrek Forever After came in third with $15.8 million!

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.

Lil Wayne and Drake announced that they will be doing an album together when Wayne is released from Riker’s Island.

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.
