“It’s Been a F*** Khia Week!”

After a recent radio interview gone bad in Detroit with radio personality Cheron, Khia released this video blog* on her myspace page earlier this week. I have to admit I don’t really listen to Khia’s music, but her recent rants have been quite hilarious so I thought I’d share the laughs with you.

Usher and Wife Tameka Still Going Strong

Usher’s reps are saying that the R&B star and his wife of nine months are still going strong and the recent rumors of a separation posted on another site are “100 percent not true.” According to Benny Medina “Usher and Tameka are currently traveling in Europe together as a family on his promotional tour…[t]his rumor is completely false.”

Well I’m happy for the couple since I’m all about black love. I thought the story was sus anyway since Usher’s album is scheduled to drop next Tuesday. That would have been very convenient unfortunate for Usher if that story was true right now.

Trina’s New Business Venture

So one of the tackiest chicks in the game is taking it upon herself to style the rest of America. Rapper Trina is coming out with her own clothing line that will be called Pink Diamond Couture. According to the press release:

When it comes to fashion and style Trina has always been a trend setter. With her unique style and an appreciation of what women want, Trina will debut her Pink Diamond Couture clothing line for Spring 2008. Her high quality jeans are emblazoned with her signature logo on the back pockets. Imagine jeans with details such as leather, python and crystals. To add a personal touch to her line the collection comes with a Tattoo that is uniquely Trina’s. No detail is overlooked in the fabric, as well as design. The fit and styling are a sexy new look in the world of fashion.

I can’t imagine what foolishness is about to be bestowed on the great lands of America due to Trina, and I really don’t want to. I just don’t understand why someone who looks a hot mess all the time thinks they can give fashion tips to everyone else. AND THEN she has the nerve to call it couture! If I recall my fashion vocab correctly “couture” refers to highly fashionable, usually custom-made clothing. If anybody out there on the world wide web can explain how clothes that will probably end up on the racks at Marshalls (next to the Fubu line) qualifies as “couture,” it would be greatly appreciated.

Wii Fit Review

I’d like to start off by saying that I’m glad I’m alive in 2008. The internet, GPS, wireless everything, and now Wii Fit. Nintendo’s Wii revolutionized video game play when it was released in September 2006 and introduced the wireless remote allowing players to swing the controller at the screen and have it actually respond. Which was great because video game controllers were beginning to get way too many buttons. For the first time video game consoles were being sold to people other than teenagers and loners. Senior bowling leagues even started up because of it…seriously.

But back to Wii Fit. First of all, it was supposed to come out yesterday and Nintendo pushed the date back because all of the stores didn’t get their shipments in. So we had to go to Toys R Us twice, but we’ll blame that on FedEx.

So you start the game up and it asks your age and height. Then it calculates your Body Mass Index (BMI) and lets you know your weight range. For those of you who have Mii’s already, you might notice a slight change in your figure. Your Wii Fitness Age is then calculated and marked on your chart. Along the way they give you a lot of good pointers and stress the need for good balance and posture. You can then choose a trainer  and begin to play the exercise games. The games are divided into 4 categories: Yoga, Aerobics, Balance Games, and Strength Training.

The trainers on the game do a very good job of explaining the exercises so you don’t feel completely lost the first time you step on the Balance Board.  As you get used to the games you will notice that not only are you are having fun and enjoying yourself, but you are also getting your heart rate up and possibly even breaking a sweat (the running challenge and the strength training exercises are no joke…don’t play yaself!)  The thing we really like about the Wii Fit is that you can get a different workout everyday and the more you workout the more games you unlock.

This system is amazing! After certain exercises it tells you about your exercise abilities and somehow it seems to know if you were not breathing properly, were too stiff, or if you plain ole just aren’t as strong as you should be.  This ish is crazy.  If you are ready to get fit and aren’t afraid to get your feelings hurt the first few days or weeks (It doesn’t have a problem telling you you’re obese), then definitely go snatch one.

Kells Is Fenna Go To Jail, Chapter 2

This trial seems to be moving pretty quickly. A young lady took the stand today who identified the girl on the sex tape as her best friend and said the two used to visit R. Kelly frequently. She said the pair rode bikes, rollerbladed, played basketball, went shopping together, and apparently did famous R&B stars…as most 13 year olds do. She said she also saw Kells give the girl between $100 and $500. She noted that she saw the sex tape at a friend’s house and immediately recognized the two individuals on the tape:

“I thought she looked just like my best friend … (and) her godfather R. Kelly.”

Her GODFATHER? Like her literal godfather? Like he was at her Christening and held her when she was 2 months, then knocked her when she was 13 type godfather? Even if that didn’t go down, that statement connotes that he at least knows the girl’s parents, which just makes it gross. I mean, not that it wasn’t gross before, but that just adds to it. Eww. I feel bad even putting this in the Sexy category.

Beyonce Comes Clean…Kinda

So after keeping a serious tight lip and not talking about the private wedding that the entire world knew occurred last month, Beyonce finally talks about her marriage to rapper, Jay-Z. According to Entertainmentwise.com Beyonce is not denying her marriage, she just chooses not to put it on blast.

I don’t deny it (the wedding). I just don’t talk about it. We’ve never talked about us and it’s kind of protected our relationship. I think it’s kept us out of tabloid drama. A lot of actresses that have had successful relationships don’t talk about them, so neither do I.

I can’t really fault Bey for wanting to keep her relationship private; it has worked so far. Her and Jay have lasted way longer than most Hollywood couples parading around, but is it really too much to ask for them to wear wedding bands? I mean dayum! Give us something to cling on to. Please, I’m begging you.

MJ Might Do The Vegas Strip

Word is the owners of the Las Vegas Hilton, who are also the guys who took over Mike’s Neverland mortgage, are encouraging the 49 year old white woman to headline their venue in Vegas. This could put him easily back in the mega rich column…if people show up. They might want to do some market research cause he’s not exactly as family friendly as, say, Celine Dion. But in the words of Dave Chappelle:

“He made Thriller. Thriller.”

Whether the King of Pop will actually do the gig or not is another question. I’ve been saying for years he should do one night in the Garden and it would sell out in an hour. But 3 shows a day everyday? I don’t know if he’s up to it.

Kells Is Fenna Go To Jail

Tell me that ain’t the same guy.

The infamous R. Kelly sex tape will be played in the courtroom today as singer Robert Kelly’s statutory rape trial gets underway. There has to be a better argument for him than the that’s-not-me defense. He could have gotten his lawyers to argue that the state would be committing a crime by playing the tape if in fact the girl was under age at the time, or if he finds some long lost birth certificate that shows the girl was 18, or some dude that looks EXACTLY like him (who also has a steam room in his house), or…nah he’s goin to jail.

Amy Just Say No! We Need You!

OOOH loookey heah pahty. Double gross@her fingernails and playing with mice. Creepy!

RUN CHICK!!: OJ’s Girlfriend Has 2 Broken Legs

Maybe she was just trying to re-enact Tina Turner’s escape at the end of What’s Love Got To Do With It? But O.J. Simpson’s girlfriend, who had been hospitalized in February after a fall, was back in the hospital, this time with two broken legs and other serious injuries, CBS4 in Miami reported.

Florida Highway Patrol Lt. Pat Santangelo said Christie Prody was injured early Saturday morning on the Don Shula Expressway near Miller Drive after she pulled over to an emergency lane because she had two flat tires on her 2-door Mitsubishi.

Police say she rode on the flat tires for quite a distance because one of the tires was completely shredded and the other had come off the rim completely.

For an unknown reason, Prody, 32, got out of her car and tried to cross the highway. Santangelo says she nearly made it across but about two thirds of the way, she was hit by an oncoming car. Her head and arms went through that car’s windshield and she landed inside the vehicle with her legs sticking out. The driver stopped and called 911 immediately.
