Chris Brown Doing Community Service
Chris Brown started Community Service today. They say he’s cleaning the area where the VA Police Horse Stables are located. We translate that as … He’s cleaning up horse sh*t.

Whoopi Remembers Patrick Swayze
He was a man loved by all!
In honor of his recent passing, Whoopi Goldberg adoringly remembers her Ghost costar, Patrick Swayze.
She states:
"Patrick was a really good man, a funny man and one to whom I owe much that I can't ever repay. I believe in Ghost's message, so he'll always be near."
The film was some of Swayze's finest work and Goldberg earned an Academy Award for her role in it.
No doubt, due to playing opposite Patrick's stellar performance.
He will be greatly missed!
Hey Joe, Arent You Married?
Attention ho Joe Jackson was spotted getting his shine on more than Jermaine under the moonlight. He was kicking it at Jay-Z’s after party all swirled up with this unknown chick. Pop the hood for another flick of Joe and his response to Kanye’s VMA behavior.
“I had just gotten through speaking to him, he was introducing me to his girlfriend (Amber Rose) and then three minutes later he jumped up on stage. And people booed Kanye all night. I don’t know what he was doing, he jumped up on stage and snatched that microphone out of that poor girl’s hand. They should blackball him out of show business for that. He just leapt up there; that was bad.”
Joe should be last person talking about being blackballed from events cause he’s only at half this sh*t off the strength of MJ’s passing. He needs to sit down somewhere and take the bright chick along with him.

Patrick Swayze Dies At 57
LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Patrick Swayze, the actor who danced his way into viewers' hearts with "Dirty Dancing" and then broke them with "Ghost," died Monday after a battle with pancreatic cancer. He was 57.
"Patrick Swayze passed away peacefully today with family at his side after facing the challenges of his illness for the last 20 months," said a statement released Monday evening by his publicist, Annett Wolf. No other details were given.
Fans of the actor were saddened to learn in March 2008 that Swayze was suffering from a particularly deadly form of cancer.
He had kept working despite the diagnosis, putting together a memoir with his wife and shooting "The Beast," an A&E drama series for which he had already made the pilot. It drew a respectable 1.3 million viewers when the 13 episodes ran in 2009, but A&E said it had reluctantly decided not to renew it for a second season.
Swayze said he opted not to use painkilling drugs while making "The Beast" because they would have taken the edge off his performance. He acknowledged that time might be running out given the grim nature of the disease.
When he first went public with the illness, some reports gave him only weeks to live, but his doctor said his situation was "considerably more optimistic" than that.
"I'd say five years is pretty wishful thinking," Swayze told ABC's Barbara Walters in early 2009. "Two years seems likely if you're going to believe statistics. I want to last until they find a cure, which means I'd better get a fire under it."

Preacher Prays For Obama's Death....WoW
An Arizona preacher has drawn out protesters after preaching a sermon entitled “Why I Hate Obama So Much.”
Pastor Steven Anderson has not been shy at displaying his hatred towards the President. The preacher has been telling people that he is praying death upon President Obama and wants people to join in on it:
Pastor Steven Anderson stood by his sermon in an interview with MyFOXPhoenix, which reports that the pastor continues to encourage his parishioners to join him in praying for the president’s death.
“I hope that God strikes Barack Obama with brain cancer so he can die like Ted Kennedy and I hope it happens today,” he told MyFOXPhoenix on Sunday. He called his message “spiritual warfare” and said he does not condone killing.
The preacher’s words have brought out protesters who say he is incomprehensible. Of course, Steven’s sermon has also gotten him a ton of death letters.
This is where religion has gone!
Man Last Wish Was To Be Buried In His Car!
A 90 year old man’s dying wish was to be buried in his car with all his prized possessions.
According to sources, Lonnie Holloway drew out a huge crowd to see him get buried in the front seat of his 1973 Pontiac Catalina. Described as a unique individual, Lonnie talked about his burial plans but many thought he would never go through with them. As we can see, he made his plan a reality:
Diddy Sings Now w/ Auto Tune Of Course!
This is P Diddy with his new group Dirty Money and their new single "Angel". Not sure how I feel about this one. It's possible it may hit. Sorta reminds me of Kanye's Heartbreak and 808's. No originality in music these days!!
What Has This World Come To?
David Collins and Darryl Kennedy, pictured above, are two crack head con artists that recently hit a baby with a bat, killing her. To make matters worse, this sad turn of events all happened while the infant was at church with her family.
Aundrea Brownlow’s father says he’s forgiven the man who came to Thy Kingdom Come World Ministries swinging a baseball bat……that landed a fatal blow to the 14-month-old girl’s head. Her death marked a tragic end to an argument over a $20 debt and a donated washer and dryer. Still, some residents of Wheaton, a town of about 1,400 near Minnesota’s border with the Dakotas, say greater scrutiny of the church and its pastor’s criminal history are needed to prevent future confrontations.
David Collins, 50, of Wheaton, is charged with two counts of second-degree murder in Aundrea’s death last Thursday. He also faces charges of attempted second-degree murder and second-degree assault against her father, Claude Hankins. The men had argued earlier over $20 and the washer and dryer given to Hankins by the Rev. Danny Barnes, who started the church nearly five years ago as a welcoming place for people down on their luck. “I was very angry at first, which I believe is part of the initial shock,” Hankins said inside the church where fellow church members prepared for his daughter’s Wednesday funeral. “What happens if you keep that anger in you and you don’t forgive somebody, it’s going to stop you from having a productive anything.”
Darryl Kennedy, 42, of Wheaton, is also charged with second-degree assault in the case. Authorities said Kennedy loaned Collins the baseball bat and later showed up at the church, swinging at Hankins with a 4-foot-long 2×4. Collins and Kennedy, who are in custody, have been granted public defenders but were not immediately assigned attorneys. Barnes said he planned to “attack the true culprit in this particular incident” in his Wednesday eulogy for Aundrea.
“We believe that it was the spirit of addiction,” he said. “It was enhanced by alcohol and drugs.” Hankins said he could “smell the alcohol reeking off” Collins on the day of the attack and Barnes also said Collins appeared to be under the influence. Collins’ wife, Melissa, said Tuesday night that her husband had no comment. Barnes, 53, touts Thy Kingdom Come’s yearlong program to help people, especially those battling addiction, clean up their lives. He said there are about 70 registered members, many of whom were referred to the church by shelters, jails, hospitals, treatment programs and other agencies.
Lil Wayne Is Still The Man!
According to sources, Wayne racked in over 40 million on concerts alone.
Wayne grossed 42 million dollars in revenue from concert sales, outselling the Jay-Z and Mary J Blige Tour which grossed 34 million:
According to Lil Wayne’s tour producer and tour business manager, Shawn Gee, seventy-eight concerts held in North America from Dec. 14, 2008, through Sept. 6, 2009, grossed approximately $42 million and drew nearly 804,000 fans.
The second highest-grossing rap tour that Billboard has tracked was Jay-Z’s 2008 jaunt with Mary J. Blige, which grossed $34.6 million and drew 310,694 concertgoers to 28 shows, according to Billboard Boxscore. Kanye West’s 2008 Glow In the Dark tour comes in third, having pulled in $30.8 million from 49 concerts that attracted 507,853 fans. (Billboard)
Well Maia Campbell Is In Rehab; Thank God!
Last week, a video of Maia Campbell surfaced of her in a manner that we will not dwell on BUT… because of the video, people have stepped in to help her get the treatment that she needs. Here is a statement from a family friend.
Maia has been diagnosed with bi-polar/manic depression and because substance abuse is involved she has co-occurring disorder, which has symptoms similar to schizophrenia. In short, Maia is mentally ill and has a substance abuse problem.
Maia is in treatment, and she said that there is hope for Maia’s recovery. The prayers of “50,000,000″ people can make the difference because Maia doesn’t like to stay in treatment, and her treatment involves drug withdrawal, as well as, treatment for her disorders. Maia’s disorders are exasperated and sent out of control by substance abuse. Pre-existing and early onset bi-polar, clinical depression and schizophrenia can be sent out of control by marijuana (the worst culprit), alcohol and of course, synthetic and street drugs.
Maia Campbell’s mother started an organization called NAMI Urban Los Angeles (NULA), the urban affiliate of NAMI, the National Alliance on Mental Illness. NULA, founded in 2003, provides education about severe brain disorders, supports increased funding for research and advocates for adequate health insurance, housing rehabilitation and jobs for people with serious psychiatric illnesses in communities of color. It also seeks to educate the public about the myths of mental illness to eradicate stigma. NULA seeks to be a beacon of hope in the community it serves.

When Tweeting Goes Bad!
Oh it’s about to go down, plastic Kim from BRAVO’s RHOA and barefoot pregnant Neffe from BET’s FRANKIE AND NEFFE are going at it on Twitter. Apparently, Neffe wanted to verify Kim’s phone number and her dumb a** asked tweeted it to everyone. Even though that was a bad move on Neffe’s part, Kim went off and got all “white girl” on her.
Kim, you should be the last person trying to out anyone as not being a class act. She must not know, Neffe and Frankie are the type to come and beat the brakes off a chick… Pregnant and all.

Jay Z interveiwed By Oprah!!
The Exclusive O Interview
At 13 he was selling crack. By 30 he was a hip-hop legend—having gone, in his words, “from grams to Grammys.” Now Jay-Z charts his escape from the hard-knock life, describes the reunion that healed the wounds of his childhood—and even reveals the standing Sunday date he has with what’s her name.
The complete interview will be availabe in the October 2009 issue of O, The Oprah Magazine, on newsstands September 15th. Get a first look right here.
Oprah: So tell me how you got into the drug dealing.
Jay-Z: It was natural.…
Oprah: Because drug dealers were your role models. There wasn’t a teacher or a lawyer or a nurse or a doctor or an accountant in the neighborhood?
Jay-Z: Well, we were living in Marcy by then, so, no. And if anyone did become something like that, they moved out. They never came back to share the wisdom of how they made it. If anyone made it, you never knew it. That’s why I’ve always said that if I became successful, I’d come back here, grab somebody, and show him how it can be done.
Oprah: So by the time you were 13, this was a way of life. Did the lifestyle frighten you?
Jay-Z: No. It was normal. And at some point, you become addicted to the feeling. The uncertainty and adrenaline and danger of that lifestyle.
Oprah: This is where we differ. This is where we differ. Because I’d be very scared! Weren’t you shot at three times—within six feet—and you lived to talk about it?
Jay-Z: That was divine intervention. Divine intervention, and nobody knowing how to shoot.
Oprah: What happened in each situation?
Jay-Z: It was one situation, three shots.
Oprah: So he was a bad shot.
Jay-Z: Well, no one really practices shooting a TEC-9 machine gun, right? And when you’re a kid, with little bony arms—no wonder nobody could aim.
Oprah: Many of the little boys who grew up in the Marcy projects are either in jail or dead. Why do you think you got to grow up and buy your mom a house?
Jay-Z: There’s the gift, there’s the spirit, and there’s the work—all three have to come together. If one of those things is off, it can stop you from becoming who you were meant to be.
Oprah: When I met you a few years ago, we discussed our disagreement over the use of the N word and misogynist lyrics in rap music. Do you believe that using the N word is necessary?
Jay-Z: Nothing is necessary. It’s just become part of the way we communicate. My generation hasn’t had the same experience with that word that generations of people before us had. We weren’t so close to the pain. So in our way, we disarmed the word. We took the fire pin out of the grenade.
Oprah: Do you and Beyoncé have a pact that you just won’t talk about each other?
Jay-Z: Yeah. When you’re a public person, you have to keep some things to yourself, or else people will just—
Oprah: Eat it up. I know. But can I ask how in the world you kept your wedding a secret?
Jay-Z: Late planning!
Oprah: How many people knew?
Jay-Z: Very few. The sad part is that we offended some. But people who love you understand. Because at the end of the day, it’s your day.
Oprah: So here we are, talking on a Sunday afternoon. If you weren’t sitting here with me, what would you be doing?
Jay-Z: I’m gonna get killed for this, but I’ll tell you anyway. There’s a great pizza spot we go to every Sunday. It’s our tradition. It’s a small place in Brooklyn, you can bring your own wine, and there are candles there. It’s a nice date.
