The Low Down For June 1, 2010

Is Chris Brown Out Of Control?

Word is that Chris Brown's camp has completely given up on him! Everyone has abandoned him, including people at the record label. Insiders say he is like a runaway train and no one wants to get run over. A recent tweet from Breezy may support this claim. On May 24th, he tweeted, "I've never done it for the industry or approval of my peers. I do it for my fans."

Matt Barnes Got Something To Get Off His Chest

Now that the season is over, NBA star Matt Barnes, whose fiance Gloria is on Basketball Wives, went in on Shaunie O'neal and the rest of the basketball wives on Twitter! He told Shaunie that she should be ashamed of herself for having Gloria involved with all the cattiness from the other four women on the show. He also tweeted, "Seasons over I'm waitn 4 one of u bball groupies 2 say sumthen NOW!! No 1 would know any of u if u kept ur legs closed. B EZ tricks!!!" Ouch...that's gotta hurt!

Kanye West Takes Shots At SNL

Kanye West used his new single "Power," to take shots at Saturday Night Live, which Taylor Swift hosted after the whole MTV VMA debacle.

"F**k SNL and the whole cast
Tell 'em Yeezy said they can kiss my whole ass
More specifically, they can kiss my asshole
Iâm an a**hole? You n***as got jugs
You short - minded n*ggas’ thoughts is Napoleon
My furs is Mongolian, my ice, brought the Dodies in
Now I embody every characteristic of the egotistic
He know, he so, f**kin' gifted"



Ye has also joined other artists like Pitbull who have decided to boycott Arizona because of its immigration law. He said, "We are not going to play in Arizona. We are going to boycott Arizona." OK, I feel their sentiment with the whole boycott thing, but really, who are they hurting??? I don't think a lot the people that support the immigration law really care if Kanye or Pitbull comes to Arizona anyway...they are probably like good riddance! But it's a nice gesture!


Bey Bey Is Being Sued

Beyonce is being sued by Phillip Markowitz, an L.A. man, who alleges that she disturbed his peace with her video shoot for "Why Don't You Love Me." He wants Bey to pay up $25,000 for the inconvenience and loss of income! Ha! Sounds like a frivolous lawsuit to me!

Swizz Beats Cuts The Check

Swizz Beats has finally paid up! He supposedly owed his ex-wife Mashonda $334,000 in back child support. Dayum!! Meanwhile, Alicia Keys is planning her shotgun wedding to Swizzy!

Lil Mama's Drama

Lil Mama apparently crawled from whatever rock she was hiding under after the whole MTV VMA situation to shoot a video (for what I'm not sure). Anyway, she and her dancers allegedly destroyed some clothes borrowed from Metropark and Rock Revival. Word is that the clothes were either "stolen" or ruined! The producer plans on taking legal action!

Is Uncle Luke A Bad Dad?

Luther Campbell's daughter took to video to say her dad allegedly used to beat her mother and kicked her out at age 3! Dayum, those are some serious allegations!



Rest In Peace Gary Coleman

Actor Gary Coleman, best known for his role on Diff'rent Strokes passed away early Friday due to a head injury. He had been in the hospital and was in a coma, when his wife decided to pull the plug on his life support!
