Former Fugees member Wyclef Jean is at the center of a new situation concerning his recently foreclosed Miami Beach mansion. The Palm Beach Post reports that Jean took out a $2 million mortgage from Home Equity Mortgage Corp. in 2004 to purchase the estate through a corporation he owns with several friends. Although the rapper/producer set out to renovate the canal-front property, the foreclosed home, which was appraised at $1.4 million, was left unfinished for more than two years as a series of construction liens were filed.

Who watched the American Music Awards (AMA) last night? Chris Brown was the big winner, but it was Kanye West’s night at the American Music Awards. Kanye got two trophies last night and called on his colleagues to up their game. “It’s our responsibility as musicians to keep pushing each other,” West said. “We will be the new Beatles, the new (Jimi) Hendrix. I want to be Elvis.” Chris Brown won a award for top honors — artist of the year — as well as favorite male artist in both the pop/rock and soul/R&B categories.
Rihanna won favorite female artist in both the pop/rock and soul/R&B categories. Alicia Keys was another double winner: Her CD, “As I Am,” was both pop/rock and soul/R&B album winner.

Well we here that Angie Stone is planning on coming out with a “tell all” book entitled “Life in the Shadows of a Sex Symbol”…not only will she be dishing the dirt on her relationship with her baby daddy, D’Angelo, she says she will be xposing Beyonce about her secret romance with Jay-Z.
She reportedly tells Sister 2 Sister magazine, “I was right there in the beginning when Beyoncé started dating Jay-Z, and I was a friend and confidante to her during those times.”
The word “WAS” says it all in that statement. If someone tells you something in confidance, why dish it in a book! Jeez! Well, the only reason I would read this book because I’ve always been curious as to her relationship with D’Angelo. They made a odd couple back in the day…
I wonder if she will be addressing those rumors that said she hooked up with married men! I love Angie Stone, but If this rumor is true, thats a bit grimey! What do you think?
Last year around this time, I reported that Al B. Sure and Diddy were beefing over the theme of his son’s party. As you may know Al B and Kim Porter (Diddy’s baby momma/girlfriend) have a son together, named Quincy and Sure was upset that Diddy themed Kim’s son’s bday “Stuntin’ Like My Daddy”…
Well, Essence.com met up with Al B. Sure recently and he spoke about the incident, check it out here:
ESSENCE.COM: Absolutely, everyone needs to stay on the grind for what they truly want in life. Which brings me to the rumor that you wanted Quincy, your youngest son with Kim Porter, who also has children with Diddy, to acknowledge you as his father and not Diddy during his birthday bash (the party and its preparation were documented for MTV’s “Sweet Sixteen” series), which you failed to attend because you wanted them to change the theme title from “Stuntin Like My Daddy”?
SURE!: That’s absolutely not true. I never had a conversation about changing the theme name of the party. Zero. [Editor's Note: Forgive us, but we can't resist but recite his lyrics "You think you dope on the rope? Nope. Zero on the strength!"] I don’t discuss my personal life, but I will say this: I truly think the world of Sean. I respect him and he respects me. He’s a great stepfather to Quincy, and Kim is a great mother. We all grew up together, so I just laugh when people, or should I say groupies, are concerned more about what’s going on in your life than theirs. I don’t even know how my name ends up in any gossip because I haven’t been out [as an artist] since Kung Fu (laughs.) (more…)
Side note: He looks so handsome!
