Shade Alert: Beyonce- no Queen in Keri Hilson's Eyes...


Speculation arose a few years ago that Keri Hilson (right) has it out for Beyonce (left). Now I know this sounds absolutely absurd, but, Im afraid its true. A couple of years ago Keri released her own version of Beyonce's Diva that seemed to diss Bey and the internet went crazy! I heard it..I thought it was a bit much, but I didnt bother to pay it much attention after that.

Well it seems as though Juicy Magazine gave Keri another opportunity to show the world how much she loves Beyonce-or no. I can only smh at what happened.. The video is self explanatory...Check it when you read on.

Justin Bieber takes paternity test...but WHY?!?

In Case You Missed It- Chris Brown Performs My Fave Song from FAME

From the onset of Chris' "Comeback" album entitled F.A.M.E..I loved the song All Back. I felt it..the lyrics are amazing and I loved his delivery. So I was uber excited to witness him perform it on the AMAs last night. He gave a pretty good vocal performance accompanied by an amazing band and some SANGIN' bgvs.

Following All Back he went into another fave on the album, Say It With Me..and danced our lives away as only he can do! Peep the full performance after the jump..

Nicki Minaj Sings For AMA Opener & Gets Emotional Accepting Award


Nicki Minaj opened the AMAs last night with the David Guetta..dressed w/ two speakers serving as her back side- she rocked the crowd in a way Im sure they werent expecting! From the very beginning of her mainstream career she's made it clear that she wants to do it all. So it wasnt a surprise at all to me for her to open the AMAs show singing instead of rapping. 

She had a great night following the standing O she received from the crowd. She took home two AMAs..favorite artist and best album for her debut "Pink Friday". Accepting the latter of the two Nicki got a wee bit emotional..

"This one could actually make me cry...I can't believe this is happening."
Awww. She's worked really hard and come soooo far...remember the earlier Nicki Minaj posts BabyKayKs??...wow! Check her performance when you read on!

Bullet Hits White House.. Warrant Issued For Suspected Shooter


Wow........... This is scary, no? A bullet was stopped by the ballistic glass shield surrounding a window of the White House. Secret Service said they'd also found another bullet in another area of the White House. Though they say there are no specific concerns that this was an assassination attempt of any sort, but it still makes you consider..how safe is our first family really?!

This story is still developing, but they are considering the bullets to be linked to a shooting on Friday near the National Mall. The suspect is Oscar Ortega-Hernandez, a 21 yr. old with legal issues in 2 other states. A warrant has been issued for his arrest. Crazy.Check the report from local news below.

Usher's Baby Bro In Jail for Child Abuse?!


Sigh.... this saddens me. I think about little Lackey all of the time and where he is, because I dont ever hear anything about him. You know it can be difficult to live under the shadow of a superstar sibling. So, much to my dismay I received a tip this morning answering my long lost question of where he is. To find out this morning that he was arrested for allegedly abusing his girlfriend and cruelty to a child, and reckless conduct.. is just too much for me.

 I blog this with the understanding that people are arrested all of the time for things they really didnt do.. trust me, I know. So I hope these claims are not true, and that he's doing well. Usher & crew have said nothing of the arrest. James was released on bond almost immediately (of course).

Co-sleeping ads in Milwaukee causing a stir

This Day in History TLC Releases 11 x platinum Crazy Sexy Cool

According to RIAA TLC's Crazy Sexy Cool is the top selling female girl group album in all of American History. Coming in at a wopping 11 x platinum, the album set the bar and established TLC as a group that will forever go down in history. These ladies have been imitated seemingly every other year by a girl group hoping to fill their shoes. With their girl power & blunt approach to music, they were able to give girls confidence and encouragement to be who ever they are. Though many groups have come and gone and one even has come close to the numbers.. they or this album have yet to be duplicated! So..Happy 17th CrazySexyCool b-day TLC & Fans. RIL Lisa "Left Eye"

NYPD Raids Zucotti Park & Evacuate OWS -Vid

Photograph: John Minchillo/AP


This is disheartening footage. The Occupy Wall Street movement has been solid and holding in parks around country as protesters seek to disassemble the nature of big business. At the movements core is the idea that big business profits more and more while the everyday person struggles more and more. The movement for the most part has been peaceful and well structured. In some locations, protesters developed miniature communities. They had doctors, mail service, and even food areas. It is quited commendable actually. They used their actual bodies, voices, and own resources to speak out against the injustice that most of us face everyday, whether we notice or not. We are all the 99%.

Last night the NYPD raided one of the above mentioned parks, Zucotti in NYC. Many of my NYC folks began to tweet about seeing a monstrous numbers of police moving through their neighborhoods. Soon we all realized that it was the NYPD pounding down on the peaceful protesters. Below you'll find some of the disturbing footage of the evacuation.

Salute to The Veterans Today & Why It falls on 11.11



I would like to send a huge THANK YOU to every Veteran who has served this country. I can only imagine what many have chosen to endure for the sake of the idea of freedom we'd like to think this country upholds. I really appreciate all of their sacrifice.

Today I learned a bit of history as to the significance of this date. You have to go aaalll the way back to the Cold War. The United States and its allies were advancing pretty well against Germany, but to no avail. Finally on November 11, 1918 Germany had decided that enough was enough and they ceased fire. This brought an end to WW1 and America began to celebrate 11.11 as Armistice Day, that is until as you should know a second World War began int he late 1930s.

So, Congress decided to scratch the name Armistice Day & go with something more generic that would honor all of the men (now women) who serve our country! This is how we got our token "Veterans Day" holiday. So theres your US World History moment and why we celebrate Veterans Day on 11.11 every year. Again Salute to out Vets!

KayKi Cosign: The Corner Grille Downtown College Park!




I remember the first visit I made to The Corner Grille. It was after having their food at a meeting one morning for work. We were all so impressed. I promised I'd go by and check out the place for myself. The first thing I noticed was how relaxing it is inside! It's like stepping into a coffee shop or something. Nothing is more comforting to a blogger, or a person who needs to be able to sit and write anything for that matter, than an atmosphere like the Corner Grille's!

BREAKING NEWS: Heavy D Has Passed Away


I am heart broken to confirm that rapper/actor & legend Heavy D has passed away today. Id like to bet that he is one of the catalysts for hip hop becoming main stream and crossing over. It was voiced by the legendary  Grandmaster Flash today on twitter...then echoed by the well respected journalist dream hampton, but of course no one wants to believe such a thing.

It is reported that the cops were called to his home in California and upon arrival he was alive and speaking, TMZ is reporting that he died shortly thereafter. An investigation is ongoing.

Ironically his last tweets were RIP to Boxing legend Joe Frazier who passed away just yesterday.  My prayers go out up for his family. I believe he has a little girl, my heart aches for her. He was 44.

Salute!

Yiiikes! 14 yr. old Bieber Fan Threatens to Kill His Ex girlfriend-Warrant Issued

The JB stan went as far as a detailed plot on how she was going to kill Beadles with a knife, and how Beadles, "..wont know whats coming.". Scary! Further investigation revealed that the young girl is a special needs individual, and theyve just asked her mother to keep a closer eye on her while she's on the internet. Wow.

Jury in Michael Jackson Case Reaches Verdict




It was a little over 2 years ago that the world seemed to stand still at the announcement that one of the greatest ...arguably the greatest entertainer of all time-THE King of Pop, Michael Jackson had died. There was immediate speculation behind the sudden death as he was about to make one of the biggest returns to music anyone had ever seen. Medical examinations found drugs in his system that lead them to investigate his doctor who was on the scene at the time of his death.

 Today many fans are having to relive that dreadful day of June 25, 2009 as the jury has found Dr. Murray guilty of involuntary manslaughter. There was really no win situation in this. Some felt the King of Pop had a serious problem & Dr. Murray and other people were literally just giving him whatever he wanted, because when youre that powerful thats what people do. Others  (as I feel) felt like either way a Dr. has a responsibility to uphold the integrity of medicine. Some thought maybe this was a suicide on MJ's part because he couldnt dare face the world in the shape he was in just before his big tour.

At the end of it all, the world has lost a legend and both families have been immensely affected by the horrible outcome.  My prayers go up for the Jacksons and the Murray family. May Michael Jackson RILove.

Ahhh guys... D&G Metallic Oxfords = EVERYTHING!


So how cool would anybody be in these shoes??? Dolce & Gabbana's Metallic Sequin Leather Oxfords are JUST! Every now and then you want to make a statement w/out having to put on a tall pair of heels. These are definitely statement shoes. Im all about a pair of flats/sneaks from time to time. These bad babies are about $800  online and I feel like I'd wear them in the most inappropriate ways..just because they are flashy!  I could see Victor Jackson in these killing the dance floor!

Nicki Minaj is Will & Jada's long lost child!


So the wonder child that is Willow Smith has an awesome new video coming out featuring the Nickster! Over the weekend she shot it and hung out with the adorable family for a sec. She was so excited she twitpic'd a photo with the below caption:
“I’m the newest member of the family! Lmaoooooo. How cute are they barbz???? Willow goin ham in the video”
Love this family..and Nicki may just fit right in....!

Kanye Dedicates Philly Performance to Amber Rose

Kanye is STILL talking about Amber Rose While Amber is madly in love with another rapper Wiz Khalifa. It seems as though Kanye still has a lot to get off of his chest about it, while Amber seems to have moved on rather quickly. Last night at his Philly show for WTT he gave her yet another shout out.."..to the city of Philly.." he says.." I want to thank y’all for making the incredible person that this song was made for…” Do yall think these two will end up back together?!


Nicki says ex maid is full of it!

A woman who used to work as Nicki Minaj's maid appeared at Nicki's home and was kicked out by her BF (Scaff Beezy) *cough* las week. Well, the maid's boss filed a battery suit stating that someone put their hands on the maid. The lady was  actually fired from the Nickster's home a few weeks ago for asking for an autograph. Unfortunately nobody told her I guess, because she showed up again last week lol.

Nicki says the girl made the whole thing up for money..who'd ever do that Nicki?? Youre only one of the biggest celebs right now. SMH..Im sure this will kill right on over soon.

Will harassment claims hurt Cain's chances?


He's been accused twice of sexual harassment and news accounts over the past few days show Republican presidential candidate hopeful Herman Cain singing several different tunes. Cain and top campaign aides have wrangled with the fallout over the news, threatening to kick him from a high standing in the polls.

Is there a Baby Bieber on the way??

Heck...isnt Justin the Baby Bieber? I don t know. Anywho, a 20 yr old woman is claiming that America's (well..not really) heartbreaker Justin Bieber impregnated her backstage at a concert in LA. I have a few questions..umm Justin turned 17 this March..when did this heated moment happen? Also, lets say he's not the father..I hope this lady's identity is never revealed. Doesnt she know how crazy Beliebers are?! LOL I don't know what to think. It could be true, but I think this is expected being that he's JB. His legal team is adamantly denying these allegations & working to clear Justin of the suit his alleged Baby Mama has filed ..woah grown folk stuff!
