Kelly Rowland has a new gig. Bravo has hired Rowland to join Isaac Mizrahi to host a new reality show which will sort of be like the long gone “Project Runway”. Rowland and Mizrahi will host a show simply called “The Fashion Show” which follows professional designers on their quest to be recognized in their profession. The participants will compete in challenges along the way and have their fate on the show determined by a panel of judges as well as a studio audience. Winners will have their designs sold for the mass retail market. I hope this is as good as Project Runway because I really do miss that show! (more…)

Rapper, NORE, was arrested in Miami this past Sunday and was charged with misdemeanor battery and disorderly conduct following a altercation at Fatburger, a fast food restaurant. The NY rapper got into an altercation with an unidentified man at the restaurant and reportedly ripped up some flowers and threw a beverage on the victim before punching him in the face. Witnesses say Nore was screaming “Do you know who I am?” LOL! I don’t think anyone cares Nore! Sorry to say. He was released on bond shortly after his arrest. Hours later, Nore updated his twitter account stating:

“Seriously though, I am not a man for negative behavior, at lease not now [i]n my career and [i]n my life. I will not comment on the incident cause I can’t wait for someone like Angela Yee or DJ Vlad to ask me a questions. lol. But, there were no flowers involved. Repeat- no flowers involved. But Fatburger has veggie burgers with wheat bread and also has fries. They have none meat products. God damn!” (more…)

Damon Dash was spotted with his daughter, Tallulah, in New York City this weekend. She is soooo cute! I hope he saved a Trust Fund for his kids, because by the looks of his ripped/torn  jacket (look closely), I think Dash is really broke! Yikes! You know he has been going through some financial troubles!

Damon Dash and his wife Rachel Roy welcomed baby Tallulah Ruth on May 13th of last year!

We hear that Charles Barkley was sentenced to five days in jail and fined more than $2,000.00 for his January DUI incident. On Monday, the NBA Hall of Famer plead guilty to 2 counts of driving under the influence and pleaded “responsible” to running a red light. The Judge also made him enter a alcohol program. Good news is that T-Mobile brought back Barkley’s “Fave 5″ ads and TNT announced last week that Barkley would return to his rightful spot on its “Inside the NBA” studio show Thursday night!

Bow Wow was spotted at Planet Hollywood Times Square to promote his new album, New Jack City II, with a handprint ceremony in the restaurant’s main dining room. His handprints will later be displayed on the walls of a Planet Hollywood location.

When asked about his good friend, Chris Brown, and the whole domestic violent situation, Bow Wow asid, ”I mean, my first thought was, ‘That’s not true, it’s just a rumour.’ But after the story started unfolding, then I was kinda shocked. I know both Chris and Rihanna personally; I’ve been on tour with him and he’s a good friend. And Rihanna, she’s cool, she ain’t (sic) nothing but nice to everybody.”
“I pray for them, I hope Rihanna’s OK and I hope that Chris overcomes the situation; (that) they both overcome the situation and the rest is their business.”, he continued.

Check out his new video “You Can Get It All” featuring Johnta Austin!

Why retract your statement now Xzibit!? Jeez! LOL! Yesterday, we posted an audio of Xzibit XPOSING some dirt on Diddy and Karrine “Superhead” Steffans on Jamie Foxx’s Foxxhole radio show on Sirius, saying that Diddy took him to a “gay” nightclub in Miami. Well, the West Coast rapper wanted to set the record straight after several different media outlets were questioning Diddy’s sexuality. On Xzibit’s myspace blog page he says:

“Wow, so I wake up this morning and my phone is going nuts,” he wrote. “I turn on the computer and find all this shit about me ‘throwing Puffy under the gay bus’ whatever that means. All this SPIN that you journalist[s] are putting on the statements I made on a radio show to DIRECTLY effect a guy in a manor not intended is wrong.” (more…)
