TI & Tiny Had A Date Today…In Court
TI & Tiny will be in a Beverly Hills courtroom today at 8:30 this morning! Just in case you’ve been living under a rock for the past 24 hours, I’ll quickly recap what happened. TI &Tiny got arrested Wednesday night in Los Angeles after allegedly making an illegal U-turn in the Maybach. Deputies said they smelled the ganja and found Ecstasy pills and marijuana. Ti also has to fly back to Atlanta this weekend to meet with his P.O., who will then decide if the situation was a violation of his probation!

On a more positive Tip TI is looking real dapper on the double cover of Upscale Magazine!



Is Kanye West Creeping?
The Dapper Don himself, Kanye West, may working as a home-wrecker on the side. Word is that Yeezy has stolen singer Maxwell’s girlfriend of 6 months, Selita Ebanks. A source close to Maxwell said, “Kanye and Selita were sneaking around behind Maxwell's back. This is crazy because they were all friends. For Ye to do that is beyond grimey. He'll get his though, Maxwell is no punk." Hey I can’t even be mad at Selita, cus they’re both fine!





Was Rihanna Cheating?
Speaking of creeping, MediaTakeOut is reporting that Rihanna was hugged up with some guy while she was on the beach in Hawaii. And this isn’t the first time MTO accused her of cheating on her man Matt Kemp! They reported that she went out with her ex during a trip home to Barbados. MTO also said that Rihanna "canoodled" with Drake up in Canada.



Is Usher Shacking Up?

Nicki Minaj Embraces The Rainbow
Nicki Minaj is showing love for the gay community. She’s one of the first hip hop artists to openly embrace her gay fans. She told Paper Magazine, "I just like to put a spotlight on the people who support me, and it just so happens, you know, that the gay community has supported me -- more than I ever could have imagined." She also said it doesn’t bother her when drag-queens dress up like her! She said, "I see videos on YouTube where they impersonate me, and they do an amazing freaking job of dressing up as me."

Nick Cannon's Ex Moves On

There’s a reason Selita Ebanks wasn’t giving out her number at last week’s Mets-Phillies game: The Victoria’s Secret beauty is secretly seeing Philadelphia first baseman Ryan Howard. Ebanks was spotted in the crowd sitting near the dugout as the Mets won. A source told us, “Selita wanted to keep it quiet, but she met up with Ryan after the game.” We reported how fans trying to get Ebanks’ number were sweetly refused. Clearly, she had her eye on someone on the field. Reps for Ebanks and the Phillies declined to comment.
