Rihanna’s Rated R set to FLOP!!

Womp womp womp…

After ALL the hype, “The Wait Is Ova” bull, that interview, blah blah blah, Billboard has reported that Rihanna’s new album Rated R, is set to sell a disappointing 162,000 in its first week!! What’s even worse, is that this number takes into consideration that RiRi’s album is now on sale for a ridiculous $0.99, as reported earlier!! How dreadful.

Maybe her Destroy Breezy’s Career steez backfired?? And yes she does have a plan to sabotage Chris’ career, she even said it herself, via Hot 97’s Angie Martinez show today:

Speaking on the flack she’s received from the Diane Sawyer Interview:
“I expected that. It’s an obvious thing to do. They think that I have an agenda to destroy his career and that’s not what that interview was about for me. There are more creative ways to do that.”

Damn, Karma is a…

Kim Kardashian’s new body: Physical or digital??

PhotoChopped and screwed much??

Kim Kardashian posted this pic up on her Twitter page, showing off her fab new body whilst she was out in Miami recently. And whilst I get the whole hotel room setting, with the kinis scattered across the bed… blah, this pic fails to look like the candid it set out to be! B*tch blatantly send this over to her Photoshop buddies, before she posted this sh*t up!!

I’m not disputing her abs – they look kinda real, but since when did her nose look like that?? Here’s a pic of Kimmy in Miami just hours after the above photo was supposedly taken…

I rest my case.

Christina Milian piles on the baby weight!

Newly weds Christina Milian and Terius Nash aka The Dream, were spotted at the Hawks game this week, getting all cosey; with Christina doing her best to carry that baby weight with style. She looks like she’s doing her best to keep her boo awake too; homeboy looks like he’s konked out! And the baby aint even here yet! Lol.

Who knows? Maybe Nivea’s been keeping her ex-hubby up with the late night post-baby phone calls, seeing as baby daddy Lil’ Wayne can’t be arsed to help out!! SMH.

Ne-Yo splits from girlfriend Tenille

R&B superstar Ne-Yo, has split from his girlfriend Tenille, although the reason for the break-up is unknown. They looked cute together, whilst it lasted and she was holding off those gay rumours rather well don’t you think?

Girl mus’ have been dippin’ that ish low on a regular, ‘cos word is, Ne-Yo bought Tenille a car and a fat crib AFTER they broke up!! Alright for gold-diggers some.

Ne-Yo did however, bring a female friend along for the AMAs red carpet treatment Sunday night…

Interesting.

Ok, where’s the rest of your outfit girl???

What-In-The… SMDH @ Melody Thornton rollin’ out of Katsuya restaurant in Hollywood looking like this!! Where’s your skirt at b*tch!??

With her Pussy Cat Doll on display, Melody sure knows how to drum up some publicity for her upcoming debut album!! Man, and she looked so cute in the dress version at the AMAs. Epic fail.

Anyways, moving on from Bow Wow’s ex, to his current rumoured side piece Teairra Mari…

… who was looking slightly better [busy, but better], outside Guy’s & Dolls Nightclub in Beverly Hills last Thursday night. Girl could’ve thrown on a gold belt to complete the look!

Bow Wow, come get your girls.

Kanye’s intense (retail) THERAPY!

Kanye’s been flying well under the radar, ever since he stage-crashed Taylor Swift’s acceptance speech at the EMAs, and has been taking time out plane hopping in Europe.

He was spotted with graphic designer Virgil yesterday afternoon, as he window shopped at various stores including Roberto Cavalli and Marni, before heading to a waiting vehicle.

Yeezy’s wifey was also snapped this week…

… when she attended Cinema Society on Monday. Cute dress, shame about the fake tan!!

One more of Kanye, followed by a few of the hot couple shopping in Italy the other week…

Awwww, TOO cute! And the matching Jordans… priceless!

Google refuse to remove racist Michelle Obama image

If you’ve recently run a google search on “Michelle Obama”, you’ve most likely come across the extremely offensive image of a Michelle’s face fused in with that of a monkey!! Outrageous. And it’s the first image that comes up too!

Although Google have since apologised, the California-based web giant refuse to remove the image!! SMDH.

Via BBC News:

A spokesman for Google, Scott Rubin, would not give details on how the image ended up as top result for the wife of President Barack Obama.

David Vise, a Pulitzer prize-winning journalist and author of The Google Story, told the BBC that Google results get to the top based on popularity, not because of any ranking system used by the search engine.

He added: “If Google got a call from the White House telling them it’s against the law to have an offensive image of this kind which portrays the first lady in a racist manner as a monkey or an ape, then they would be obliged to take it down and I’m sure they would do so immediately.”

But he said it would be a “very slippery slope” if Google were to try to police the limits of free speech.

“Once you begin to block images, who is to say. It’s like the Supreme Court of the United States once said, ‘what is pornography?’ Well we can’t define it, but we know it when we see it.”

The White House has declined to comment.

On a more positive note, here’s President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama, posing for pics at their first State Dinner at the White House last night, in honor of Prime Minister of India Manmohan Singh and wife Mrs Gursharan Kaur…

Beautiful!

And the Death of Hova movement continues!!

After The Game coined the term Death of Hova (D.O.H – a spoof of Jay’s D.O.A track)), the likes of 50 Cent, Beanie and more recently, Chris Brown & Q-Tip have joined in on the hating! In case you missed, Q-Tip’s diss…

… which was written as Jay threw in his favourite “Women lie, men lie, numbers don’t” line in his acceptance speech at the AMAs Sunday night. Q-Tip obviously wasn’t feelin the arrogance.

But that’s not the worst of it; Jay’s worst enemy of the moment, Beanie Sigel, just released this diss track entitled How I could kill Jigga man”. I’m assuming Sigel’s metaphorically speaking!?! Have a listen…

Eminem re-releases, whilst Usher gets pushed back… again

Here’s the new (I say new, but it’s just like the original) cover for Eminem’s re-released album Relapse: Refill, which features 7 new songs. This new double-disc, replaces the previously announced Relapse 2 LP, which the Eminem promised would hit stores by the end of the year. This new release drops a few days before xmas (Dec 22nd).

As for Usher, his new album Raymond vs Raymond, has been pushed back once again, despite being scheduled for release on December 21st. As it stands, there is no current release, but a rep for Usher tries to reassure fans that the album will be released real soon. Via MTV:

“We believe that the album is so strong that we want to give it the opportunity to have the proper setup before coming out.”

“So strong” yeah? Let’s hope so. In the meantime, I leave you with pics of Usher on set of DJ Khaled’s new video Fed Up (also featuring Drake, Rick Ross & Young Jeezy)…

Rihanna’s record label has no faith in her!!

Wow, despite the various implied nude shots, the raunchy outfits, the Chrihanna interview, etc etc, Rihanna’s record label has decided to slash her album price to just $4, in a desperate attempt to secure the #1 spot!!

Rihanna made an appearance at Best Buy in Manhattan yesterday, to promote her new album which is now selling at $3.99 on Amazon MP3!! Wow, and if she still doesn’t get to #1 (knocking Lady GaGa off the top spot aint gonna be easy), wouldn’t that be embarrassing!?!

Good luck with that!

UPDATED:

Unbelieveably, Rihanna’s Rated R album has now been slashed to just $0.99!!! WTF?? Talk about PANIC MODE! Piiiiissed!
