Jail Time for T.I.
T.I. probation officer suggest jail time for him. He suggest 8 to 14 months for violating a federal weapons charge.
Damn!!! Mr. Officer.....
___________________________
ATLANTA — The probation officer for T.I. is recommending that the rapper face eight to 14 months in prison if his probation is revoked following his recent arrest in Los Angeles.
The rapper’s attorneys countered in court filings this week the probation officer’s recommendations are “erroneous” and that he should at most face between five to 11 months behind bars.
U.S. District Judge Charles Pannell Jr. has set the hearing for 2 p.m. on Oct. 15 for T.I., whose real name is Clifford Harris.
An earlier summons for T.I. lists three possible violations of his bond: possession of the drug ecstasy, testing positive for opiates and associating with a convicted felon.

Los Angeles County Sheriff’s officials say the Grammy award-winning rapper was stopped Sept. 1 on a Hollywood street after making an illegal U-turn. Police say they found several pills confirmed to be a controlled substance.

Ciara New Video: Speechless
I just watched Ciara new video for her next single Speechless.
I liked the message in the song. No so sure that I like her voice on it but I definitly like the lyrics. I think she looks good in the video, I just wish she hadn't lost so much weight because now (to me) she looks too skinny. Not saying she was fat at first but she had more meat on her bones. But watched the video and be the judge yourself. Anywho Good job Ciara..... Still waiting on Basic Instinct to drop!

Willow Smith Single: Whip My Hair
For those who don't know on September 9, 2010 Willow Smith got signed to Jay-Z's label Roc Nation.
Willow is the daughter of Will and Jada Pinkett Smith, obviously hence the name.
But anyway, her single is called Whip My Hair.
I just listened to it and I have to admit, it's a banger.... The only thing that bothers me is that she is just 9 years old, singing and sounding like that. I'm having a hard time getting past that fact.
But the single is hot and Willow is going to be something else in due time. I can't wait for her album to drop.

Bishop Eddie Long Speaks to the Congregation
“The Bishop,” as he referred to himself, welcomed his church family and “all our other guests.”
“New Birth, we are not alone,” he told his congregation. “We must not forget our strength is not in man — it’s not in Eddie Long — but in the Lord!”
“For the sake of our visitors here today, we’re here every Sunday at 8 and 11,” he said to another round of applause.
Long then thanked his long suffering wife and their four grown children for their strength and support.
“Out of advice of my lawyers… I am not gonna allow myself to be drawn into the court of public opinion. Because one day every knee got to bow, and every tongue got to confess, and everybody’s gotta give an account for themselves!,” he said. “I only, and my only hope is, is in the hands of the Lord, and my justice is to be given to me in a fair court of justice,” he stammered.
“As you know there have been accusations and attacks made against me, and I am going to vigorously fight all of ‘em!,” he told the parishioners as they stood and cheered. “I feel like Goliath — David, rather — facing Goliath. There’s a giant in front of me. But I am going to fight, and I’m gonna fight vigorously! And I got five rocks and I haven’t thrown one yet!,” said Long as he lay down his mic and strode off the podium to thunderous applause.
Not once did he deny the charges in lawsuits brought against him by 4 former Longfellow Academy students who accuse Long of coercion by plying them with cash, cars, gifts and exotic trips in return for sex..
Afterwards, Long held a press conference but he didn’t take any questions from the media.

Beyonce's Deréon Fall Photo Shoot
“With a Sixties-pinup-girl meets-futuristic-biker-chick theme, BeyoncĂ© and I really wanted to give our DerĂ©on fall 2010 campaign a tough edginess. We decided to invite Temptu to help us create custom body art for her to model with our fashions. The resulting images were so strong that we realized consumers might want to re-create the tattoos themselves.” –Tina Knowles

Third Man Comes Forward......
I didnt get a chance to post this yesterday.......
A thrid man comes forward on Bishop Eddie Long.
I wasn't shocked!! I'm sure a few more may come forward.... anyway here's the story
A third lawsuit has been against Bishop Eddie Long, alleging he coerced a man to have sex with him, the plaintiff’s attorney told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
The third suit was filed Wednesday afternoon in DeKalb County Superior Court, said a spokeswoman for attorney B.J. Bernstein.Larry
Long was not immediately available Wednesday, but is holding a news conference Thursday morning.
Reaction to the lawsuits alleging sexual coercion against Bishop Eddie Long reverberated both locally and nationally Wednesday morning.
CNN and Good Morning America both ran pieces on the lawsuits, as did the local TV news shows.
It was a major topic on local urban-themed radio stations. On the “Frank and Wanda Morning Show” on V-103, host Frank Ski held off on discussing the lawsuits until after 8 o’clock because, he said, “we’re going to get the kids off to school” first.
Ski is a 12-year member of Long’s New Birth Missionary Baptist Church in Lithonia. In an interview with the AJC, Ski said his reaction is one of “extreme support.”
“It’s difficult for me because Bishop Long and I are very close,” he said. “I’m one of these people who’s really old school. When you’re a friend and I support you, I support you. Right now it’s allegations.”
Two men, ages 20 and 21, filed lawsuits in DeKalb County alleging Long coerced them into having sex in exchange for trips, cars and cash.
The plaintiffs say Long began having inappropriate relations with them when they were 16. They are seeking a trial by jury and unspecified damages.
Long adamantly denies the allegations.
Ski said the reaction he’s heard from fellow church members has been disbelief of the claims. But the reaction Ski’s gotten from the public at large has been far more mixed. “It’s going to cause a lot of destruction in our community,” a caller told Ski. “I just hope it’s not true.”
Across the radio dial on Kiss 104.1, Roland Martin interviewed the plaintiff’s attorney, B.J. Bernstein, on the nationally syndicated “Tom Joyner Morning Show.”
Bernstein said that when she first got a phone call from one the alleged victims, “the chills went down my spine because I immediately knew the seriousness…and I knew the stature of Bishop Long in this community and across this nation. I got the boys in and spoke with them and that’s when I knew that I had no choice but to get involved. I was shaken by the seriousness of these allegations.”
Bernstein told Martin that she would be subpoenaing Long’s phone, e-mail and travel records as the case moves forward.
“To say to the world as a young man that you had that happen[to you], the ridicule and scorn that these young men are willing to put themselves through for the truth, is extraordinary,” Bernstein said.
She said that last May, one of the plaintiffs approached Long for counseling after his best friend died. “Instead, the bishop makes a move on him.”
Martin said he would be talking with a spokesperson for Long on Thursday morning, and attempted to set up an interview with Long.
Afterward, Joyner said if that he were Long, he would be immediately making radio appearances to try and clear his name. “I would have beat me to work,” Joyner said. “I would have been in my studio before I got here.”
Church spokesman Art Franklin did phone interviews with CNN and the “Frank and Wanda Morning Show.” He strongly denied the allegations but declined to get specific when pressed, saying the lawyers had yet to look at the full lawsuits. “It’s really unfortunate these two men have decided to take this course of action,” Franklin told Ski. “The plaintiffs, these are not innocent victims. …I just caution people to consider the sources and their motives.”
On CNN, Franklin said the plaintiffs were motived by “retaliation” and called it “a shakedown for money.
One plaintiff, 20-year-old Maurice Robinson, was arrested in June in connection with a burglary at the church. The allegations also were a hot topic on the Internet.

Bishop Eddie Long Accused of Sexual Coercion
I was wondering why people were going in on twitter about Bishop Eddie Long, so I then did a little of research and this why........
Two Georgia men have filed a lawsuit claiming that prominent Atlanta, Georgia, pastor Eddie Long coerced them into sex.
The suits, filed Tuesday in DeKalb County, Georgia, allege that Long used his position as a spiritual authority and bishop to coerce young male members and employees of his New Birth Missionary Baptist Church into sex.
“Defendant Long has a pattern and practice of singling out a select group of young male church members and using his authority as Bishop over them to ultimately bring them to a point of engaging in a sexual relationship,” the suits allege.
Long is considered one of the nation’s top black preachers. His church has more 25,000 members, according to the suit, and was the site of Coretta Scott King’s 2006 funeral, attended by then-President George W. Bush and three previous presidents. King was the widow of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.
The pastor took one plaintiff, Anthony Flagg, 21, on overnight trips to a half-dozen American cities in recent years, Flagg’s suit alleges.
“Long shared a bedroom and engaged in intimate sexual contact with plaintiff Flagg including kissing, massaging, masturbating of plaintiff Flagg by defendant Long and oral sexual contact,” the suit says.
Long took the other plaintiff, Maurice Murray Robinson, 20, to Auckland, New Zealand, in October 2008 for his 18th birthday and engaged in oral sex with him, Robinson’s suit alleges.
“Following the New Zealand Trip, Defendant Long regularly engaged in sexual touching, and other sexual acts with Plaintiff Robinson,” Robinson’s suit alleges.
Long spokesman Art Franklin said Tuesday that “we categorically deny the allegations.”
“It is very unfortunate that someone has taken this course of action,” he said. “Our law firm will be able to respond once attorneys have had an opportunity to review the lawsuit.”
Long frequently denounces homosexual behavior. A 2007 article in the Southern Poverty Law Center’s magazine called him “one of the most virulently homophobic black leaders in the religiously based anti-gay movement.”
“Everybody knows that a bishop or church pastor … cannot have any sort of sexual relations or sexual relationship with one of your parishioners,” the lawyer, B.J. Bernstein, said at a news conference Tuesday evening. “And even worse to have it with two young men who trusted him and got to know him at a very young age.”
Bernstein said she has alerted federal authorities about the allegations.
In June, Robinson was arrested and charged with burglary in connection with a break-in to Long’s office. An iPhone, iPad and other items — more than $1,300 worth — were taken from the office, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported.
On Tuesday, Bernstein said the theft was Robinson’s attempt to retaliate against the pastor. She said that once Robinson began telling others about his experience with Long, “he realized he wasn’t the only one.”
“It made [Robinson] angry,” she said. Both plaintiffs said the pastor, his church and church employees gave them cash and lavish gifts that ranged from cars to college tuition. The suits also said that Long framed the sexual relationships as religious in nature.
The suits allege that Long chose the plaintiffs to be his “Spiritual Sons,” a program that allegedly includes other young men from the church.
Flagg moved into a home owned by another New Birth pastor when he was a high school junior, according to the suit, where Long would sometimes share a bed with him. Flagg was eventually put on the church’s payroll, his suit alleges, with Long personally delivering his checks.
Flagg’s suit says that Long presided over a spiritual “covenant” ceremony between the two of them.
“It was essentially a marriage ceremony, with candles, exchange of jewelry, and biblical quotes,” Bernstein said Tuesday. “The bishop [told] him I will always have your back and you will always have mine.”
Robinson’s suit alleges that “Defendant Long would use Holy Scripture to discuss and justify the intimate relationship between himself and Plaintiff Robinson.”
The suits are seeking unspecified amounts of punitive damages from Long on various counts, ranging from negligence to breach of fiduciary duty.

Bruno Mars Arrested
Singer-songwriter Bruno Mars was found with a bag of cocaine in the bathroom of the Las Vegas Hard Rock Hotel & Casino over the weekend, say police.
He was arrested Sunday after being detained by hotel security. He was booked into county jail on suspicion of possession of a controlled substance. He was allegedly carrying 2.6 grams of cocaine. Formal charges have not yet been filed, but he is due back in court on November 18.
According to the arrest report obtained by TMZ, Bruno entered a bathroom stall with a bag of a white, powdery substance.
After taking what seemed like an unusually long time, the bathroom attendant alerted a security guard who confronted Bruno as he exited the stall, says the report. When asked to handover any narcotics he may have had, the report says that Bruno pulled the bagged substance from his jeans pocket.
It later tested positive as cocaine.
Bruno faces possible felony charges.

Damn Bruno!!! I love your music and your voice, I'm just trying to figure out why you would do something like this? I thought you were smarter than this.... but I guess it comes with being famous!
Fantasia For Real (Review)
Fantasia's reality show, Fantasia For Real, premiered this past Sunday on VH1.
The show begins in Atlanta in the diva's mansion. Fantasia is shooting pool and talking about how much of her family has their own homes. The singer shows fans how her home remodeling job is coming along, part of her taking charge of her life. She then gets ready to promote her third album Back to Me by doing a photo shoot, which could help her make comeback from a disappointing second album. She's also told that she'll be performing in London.
Aunt Bunny comes by for a visit to settle some family business face to face over rumors she heard on the internet. After some pleasantries, Aunt Bunny notices a lot of poles in the mansion, which alarms Fantasia's aunt, but the singer tells Bunny it's for exercise. Later, the singer is informed that low ticket sales are threatening the trip to London (only 300 to start).
Then Fantasia is confronted about her personal life....
Later, Aunt Bunny leads the confrontation with Fantasia about allegedly dating a married man, reported through various media outlets. Fantasia is uncomfortable talking about it even though she acknowledges as "a friend." Her two family members are against her dating a married man no matter the circumstances.
"Teeny", Fantasia's brother, gets a visit from Aunt Bunny to see how he's keeping the house he's got, and he admits to not having a job. The singer readies for her trip to London, and tells her family goodbye. Fearing that the London show won't have a good crowd, we then see the diva in a state of anxiousness. But her fears are unfounded, as the show draws well and she performs well, while even getting up close and personal with some fans in the front aisles over her song from Back to Me called Even Angels.
_____________________________________________________________
My opinion:
For the first episode of the season, I enjoyed it, especially the confrontation part.... I loved it cause she flat foot lied to her mom and aunt about her relationship with Cook.....On National TV!!!
I will definitely be watching next week....
