    • You got to be effin kidding me…Will & Jada #getittogether NOW!

    •  
    SECTION: Life Is A .....

     

    CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS ISH?  WILL “ALLEGEDLY WALKED IN ON JADA WITH OF ALL THINGS MARC “SKELETOR” ANTHONY? #DEAD (I AM ROLLIN’ ON THE FLOOR ….CAN YOU SEE ME?)

    Since the rumors broke, both Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith have denied reports that they were splitting up, a new story is saying that Will WALKED IN on Jada and her recently single HawthoRNe co-star Marc Anthony is now the new development in this already shocking story!! Will reportedly walked into his own home to find Marc and Jada together, then left crying!! <—lmao..oh please!

     


    Even though their reps say that Jada had not been unfaithful to Will, Marc was reportedly at their home back in April to “see a DVD.” This doesn’t help the fact that Jada and Will have been living separately  for months now.

     

    Well you know what they say… “believe nothing of what you hear and half of what you see” and here’s why…..this morning Will Smith SHOT DOWN reports he’s splitting from wife Jada Pinkett  – saying all the rumors are outright R-I-D-I-C-U-L-O-U-S!!! While out shopping with Jada in Malibu this morning, Will was asked to comment on the “ridiculous” rumors – and Will responds, “You just did.”

    SOOOOOOOOO…What does this all mean?!?!  THESE RUMORS are just THAT! RUMORS!!!! ONLY TIME WILL TELL REALLY!!!

     

     

    AND CAN YOU REALLY IMAGINE SKELETOR WITH JADA PINKETT SMITH?

    • SHOCKING NEWS in COUPLESVILLE: WILL & JADA PINKETT SMITH SPLIT!!!

    •  
    SECTION: Life Is A .....

     

    The rumormill is on fire—from facebook to twitter— and this morning its saying 

    Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith have decided to separate after 13 years of marriage.

    The twosome, who are the proud parents to multi-million dollar pre-teen Hollywood starlets Willow & Jaden Smith and teen son Trey, have always said “divorce was not an option” for them.  And, not saying looks are everything, they always appeared to be the quintessential marital couple.

    Even over at TMZ.com they’re saying that they placed a call to Jada’s rep, Karynne Tencer, who told them … “What? In Touch said that? I know nothing about this … Lord. I’m going back to bed.”

    SMH ….hope this is all false,   true love is hard to find! 

    Here is a gallery of Will and Jada over the years:

    **UPDATE**

     

    0823_will_jada_EX_TMZ_01

    Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith just released a joint statement SHOOTING DOWN a report that they have separated.

    The statement reads, “Although we are reluctant to respond to these types of press reports, the rumors circulating about our relationship are completely false.”

    The two add, “We are still together, and our marriage is intact.”

    SECTION: RIP/Tribute,What is your purpose in life?

     

    Nick Ashford, one-half of the husband and wife songwriting/production/duet team Ashford & Simpson, died today after throat cancer complications. 

    The legendary and soulful Ashford & Simpson suffered a major loss today as 70-year-old Nick Ashford died, reportedly due to radiation and throat cancer complications at a New York hospital.

    The AP reports:

    Liz Rosenberg, who also was Ashford’s longtime friend, told The Associated Press that Ashford – who along with wife Valerie Simpson wrote some of Motown’s biggest hits – died in a New York City hospital. He had been suffering from throat cancer and had undergone radiation treatment.

    Though they had some of their greatest success at Motown with classics like “Ain’t No Mountain High Enough” and “Reach Out And Touch Somebody’s Hand” by Ross and “You’re All I Need To Get By” by Gaye and Tammi Terrell, Ashford & Simpson also created classics for others, like the anthem “I’m Every Woman” by Khan (and later remade by Whitney Houston).

    •  
    SECTION: Black Businesses/Uplifting the Community,Community Outreach,Favorites,Rave Reviews,True Baller Status,What I Love,What is your purpose in life?

     

     

    The dreamy Orlando Magic’s power forward Dwight Howard has been giving back through his D12 foundation to make an impact on the educational opportunities for children in Tanzania. See more below…

    Dwight Howard joined executives from his D12 Foundation on a trip to the United Republic of Tanzania where he visited the Kipok Secondary School in the Monduli region and the Lunguya Secondary School in Shinyanga.  He donated more than $80K to their educational efforts. Dwight’s donation will be used to build dormitories on the grounds of each school so that the young girls are safe from danger and are provided three meals a day.

     

    LOOK AT HIS FINE ASS!!!! SMH!

    When asked about his donation he said,  “Our donation is just a start for the future of the youth in Tanzania. If we can protect them while they obtain an education, we protect their future and the future of Tanzania.”  Fine and humble…mmm mmm mmm!

     

    International School of Tanganyika Secondary School Campus

    In addition, Dwight also visited the International School of Tanganyika ‘ss Secondary School Campus in Dar es Salaam.  While there, he taught basketball skills and delivered a motivational message to the students. Furthermore (as if his generous bones weren’t tired enough), he also found time to help rebuild houses in Alabama after the 2011 tornadoes and to serve as a Celebrity Ambassador for the Big Brothers Big Sisters Start Something Campaign. 

     GOD BLESS YOU BOO!  Congrats to a great black man with a beautiful heart …and chocolate shoulders..lol

    • KIM KARDASHIAN & KRIS HUMPHRIES NUPTIALS!!!!! WEDDING OF THE YEAR PERHAPS?

    •  
    SECTION: Congratulations!!,Must See!!!!

     

    AND THE UNDISPUTED PIMP & TRICK OF THE YEAR GOES TO ……

    First and foremost… Congrats to the new Mrs. Kris Humphries aka Kim Kardashian!

    Soooo in total…. between all of the gifts she received prior to and to be included in her wedding, turning her bachelorette party into a Vegas event and turning her wedding into two two-hour episodes of ratings gold for E! (and getting them to share the ad revenue from her wedding special), Kimmy is about to rake in a reported $17.9 million!!!   And how you say?!?!  Well let’s break it down shall we?

    The exclusive photo rights to the Hollywood super nuptials were sold to People magazine for $2.5 million, a source told The Post.

    Their biggest payout will come from turning last night’s ceremony into a four-hour, two-part TV spectacular called “Kim’s Fairytale Wedding: A Kardashian Event,” which will air on E! in October.

    The special is expected to pull in $12 million to $15 million for the Kardashian family franchise and for the show’s producer, Ryan Seacrest.

    And I’m sure they got their vendors for the wedding comped the celebrity couple as this event was great publicity!  Can’t wait for the pics!  Patiently waiting for People magazine!!!

    Furthermore, the 30-year-old star of “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” picked the Sotto Il Monte estate in Montecito, Calif., for the black-tie affair.

    She got three $20,000 Vera Wang gowns — one for the ceremony and two for later in the evening — all free, and $400,000 worth of Perrier Jouet Champagne also gratis.

    Her $15,000, 10-tiered wedding cake with chocolate-chip icing and black and white decorations made by Hansen’s Bakery was comped, too.

    In addition, the $10,000 worth of invitations by Lehr & Black were F-R-E-E!!  Really though? Its like that? 

    Other costs would have included $2 million for Mark Gardens floral arrangements of African white roses and black and white décor, tents, lighting and favors.

    Caviar, Kobe burgers, truffles, cupcakes and other tasty tidbits for the reception racked up a sweet $750,000 tab for the nearly 500 guests, which included Seacrest, Lindsay Lohan, Eva Longoria, and Carmelo Anthony and his wife, La La, People reported.

    The $3 million in wedding bling — including the couple’s $1 million nuptial bands and Kim’s $2 million engagement ring, all by Lorraine Schwartz — was deeply discounted.

    Even the $50,000 bachelorette party was sponsored, by Tao of Las Vegas.

    Lastly, 

    After the wedding, the couple planned to head to New York, where Kim and her sister Kourtney will work on their reality TV show “Kourtney & Kim Take New York.” During the filming, they will have a second wedding party at Capitale. <—-I swear this chic is all about business …all day everyday!

    Here’s some footage from the wedding!! :

    JUST FABULOUS!!


    OH AND YES! LET”S NOT FORGET ABOUT HER NEW HUBBY K. HUMPRHIES…Homeboy is getting at least 8 out of that $17.9 million!  BELIEVE THAT!

    Official Break goes as follows:

    Payments they received
    * $15 million plus profit for four-hour, two-part wedding special on E!
    * $2.5 million for exclusive photos with People magazine
    * $300,000 for exclusive engagement announcement with People
    * $100,000 for exclusive rights to bridal shower with Britain’s OK! mag
    * $50,000 to have bachelorette party at Tao in Las Vegas

    Stuff they got for free
    * $15,000 to $20,000 Hansen’s Bakery wedding cake
    * $20,000 Vera Wang wedding dress and fittings
    * $40,000 for two more Vera Wang evening dresses
    * $400,000 in Perrier Jouet Champagne
    * $150,000 in hair and makeup for photo shoots and TV “home video”
    * $10,000 in Lehr & Black wedding invitations

    Deeply discounted
    * $2 million 20.5-carat engagement ring and $1 million wedding bands by jeweler Lorraine Schwartz. The amount they paid for these items hasn’t been revealed, but it’s much less than their worth.

    Source

    I’m exhausted just talking about the amount of money they received, spent, or saved for this wedding!  Hope it last for all that gwap! Time will tell! Congrats K&K
