MC: Oprah sent me an invitation. I had been to the Legends Ball as well, which was amazing and one of the most—no, the most—fabulous event I’ve ever been to in my life. The luncheon and the special care and time she took for her guests were amazing. And this trip should be an incredible piece of history, so I’m looking forward to being there. It’s an honor and privilege to be invited.

Lil Kim Pulls Mariah Carey Diva Moves


Lil’ Kim is apparently demanding $1,000,000 million to appear on the British Show Big Brother. She alledgedly turned down an offer of $500,000 to appear on the hit show.

Lil’ Kim, 32, wanted DOUBLE that — but is now considering an increased offer of nearly $800,000.

The 4ft 11in star — has also made a list of diva demands. In documents we have seen, she insists she has:


  • FINAL APPROVAL of all footage of her - which is nigh on impossible on a 24-hour-a-day live show.

  • FIRST CLASS round-trip travel for two from the US and first-class hotel accomodation.
  • A PERSONAL assistant with her in the house, plus her own hair and make-up stylist on stand-by.

  • A HOLIDAY in London for two — two weeks, all expenses paid — at the end of the show.

TheFab Movie Review: Dreamgirls

There's a whole lot of dreamy to this "Dreamgirls": The music, the choreography, Jennifer Hudson's Effie shredding the celluloid with a showstopping performance, Eddie Murphy's amazing Jimmy Early (he sings! he dances!), the costumes (if you don't like one, no problem, just wait 3 minutes), the sets … at times, it has all the flash, fun and spectacle we've been expecting.

Donald vs Rosie Clip

Donald Trump and Rosie fight over Miss America



We couldn't look the other way on this Rosie vs Trump war of words regarding the recent Miss America scandal. This is funnier than the Jay-Z vs. Jim Jones battle.

Rosie O'Donnell apparently got under Donald Trump's skin when, yesterday on the View, she called him a "snake-oil sales man". Rosie called yesterday's entire Miss America press conference a publicity stunt on Trumps part, which we happen, to agree with completely.

Donald fired back with "Rosie's a loser, and somebody has to fight back," Trump said. "I really like Barbara Walters. Believe me — Barbara Walters, in my opinion, rues the day that she put that animal on her show because that show will go down the tubes. You watch."

The Donald event threatened to have one of his friends go over to snatch up her girlfriend.

Lol....you can't make this stuff up!

50 Cents Bank Account might be $10 Million lighter


Looks like 50 Cent might have to come out of his pocket to pay the $10 million in damages that was recently awarded to a Maryland DJ. According to the New York Post, 50's G-Unit crew assaulted "DJ Zxulu, the Big-Lipped Bandit" Dunkerson at WKYS-FM’s Maryland studios. National Fireman's Insurance is allegedly not willing to pay for the damages. However, I get the impression that 50's lawyers will definitely get something worked out.

DreamGirls Already Breaking Box Office Records

50 Cents and Samuel Jackson Deliver a Dud

While Dreamgirls is getting rave reviews, Home of the Brave, starring Samuel Jackson and Curtis "50 Cents" Jackson is not getting applauds from movie critics. Curtis' role may be short lived if this movie does bomb.

HOME OF THE BRAVE follows four returning soldiers as they survive the ravages of war in a distant land and then try to come home to continue their lives. Samuel L. Jackson portrays a medical Captain, a surgeon who is tormented by lost lives he could not save in war and returns home not as the doctor he once was.

Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson is cast in a tragic role as an army specialist haunted by the combat killing of an Iraqi woman who is unable to cope with his anger once he returns home to his friends and the young girl who once cared about him.
