LIL MAMA FREESTYLES ARE D.O.A?




So after the VMA disaster with Alicia Keys & Jay-Z, Lil Mama has been the butt of everyone's jokes & the backlash is starting to piss her off.




So what does the little one decide to do to clear her name? She does a freestyle over the D.O.A beat, which is literally D.O.A (death on arrival) to anyone who hears it. Cover your ears if you must:








She musta been inspired by Ol' Dirty Bastard.






Oh no. But she didn't stop there! Lil Mama decided to do a freestyle over another Jay-Z song. This one she did over the Empire State of Mind beat, the very same song she hopped out on stage to & looked like a damned fool while doin it! :










I'm gonna get stoned for this but I don't think it's that bad. . . . WHAT? I wonder how much more annoyed Hov is of her now.

2 ICONS TEAM UP, THE JACKSON KIDS GET AN ALLOWANCE OF HOW MUCH?!




Oh hell yes
!!!




Sources are saying Madonna was overly impressed with Janet Jackson's tribute to her brother at the VMA's that now she wants to collaborate and do something huge to honor MJ!




Someone inside the camps revealed, "It was a meeting of two great musical minds. Madonna was so impressed with Janet's tribute to Michael that they started talking about how great it would be to honor him by doing something together…There was definitely something very interesting being planned between them."




Oh yes please yes!!!!









Michael left a fortune to his mother and his 3 children Paris, Prince Michael I & Blanket, so I guess it isn't surprising that the allowance they'll be gettin is unusual for young kids!





Legal documents revealed that the kids will receive a $60,000 per month to spend!





That's what some adults make in a year!

KANYE WEST'S VMA FIASCO IS THE TALK OF THE TOWN


Let the backlash begin!




Days after Kanye's VMA bombardment, many people have had plenty of things to say about his "drunken" speech (he was reportedly carrying around a half bottle of Hennessy & swiggin it on the red carpet & inside) in the middle of Taylor Swift winning her award. Here are some comments made about the incident from various celebs:







We already know Pink's hate for Kanye first started when it came to that PETA issue, but now it's burned deeper!






Meanwhile, 50 Cent said he would've gave 'Ye a black eye!:









Even our beloved President Obama had words about the VMA disaster:








Hilarious!! However, people are looking heavily into this leaked audio because it was suppose to be off the record. If you've ever taken journalism class or know anything about it, once someone says it's off the record, you cannot use it! I believe it's a written rule. . . this person's in trouble!!





In the end, Kanye West apologized on The Jay Leno Show & even talked about wanting to go away for a while:







And that he did. He reportedly called Taylor up & apologized and she's accepted it .









And who could forget this humiliating moment for Lil Mama! I'm still too embarrassed to watch the performance again!!





Well Ms. Alicia Keys stopped by The Today Show & pretty much sonned Lil Mama:








LOL! She looks hot by the way! Lovin the weave!!!





Can the case now be closed on this Kanye West thing? It's becoming a little much. . . . now we can start up with Lil Mama.

2009 MTV VMAS HIGHLIGHTS




What's goin on world? What'd I miss??? I know I've been M.I.A but I'm slowly trying to catch up!




So the VMA's went down last night & boy were there highlights! Here are some of my favorites ones:









Very touching speech by Madonna who opened the show & of course Ms. Jackson killed the performance! Everyone was anticipating this moment, even Beyonce! Did you see how excited she got? Even so, it sounded like Janet's voice was put through a blender & 80 packs of ciggarettes, however her presence on stage was still felt! At the end of the performance, you can see her pointing up to Michael with tears in her eyes. She did not have to perform but she did as a tribute; a tribute which I thought could've been a whole lot better!!





The official trailer for MJ's This Is It documentary film also debuted & it gave me chills while I watched it last night & it's still givin me chills now that I'm seein it again! He still got it.:










Lady Gaga had an interesting performance. I get the artistism and all but. . .








People are saying she was renacting Princess Diana's death which was due to the papz. I don't see it though! But homegirl does have a voice. Sang it.




Beyonce & her 100 female army. Female power. Woop Woop!









And here's what everyone's talkin about. One of the most memorable nights. Kanye turns into a crybaby yet again. I'm gettin real tired of his shannanigans! Check out what he does during Taylor Swift's acceptance speech for her first ever VMA for Best Female Video & what the classy Beyonce does after she wins Video of The Year:








When 'Ye did that it wasn't even halfway through the show yet! Too early for nonsense man. Beyonce looks more pissed then happy for the support. Word has it that he was escorted out right after the incident with his bald chick Amber Rose, who was rockin a horrendous snakeskin bodysuit! Everyone was saying Kanye was drunk already, walking around & on the red carpet with a half drunken bottle of Hennessy. Lawddd. . . P.S I'm LMAO at Gaga's white wreath.




Anyway, after he was kicked out he took to his blog immediately & issued an apology:


"I'M SOOOOO SORRY TO TAYLOR SWIFT AND HER FANS AND HER MOM. I SPOKE TO HER MOTHER RIGHT AFTER AND SHE SAID THE SAME THING MY MOTHER WOULD'VE SAID. SHE IS VERY TALENTED! I LIKE THE LYRICS ABOUT BEING A CHEERLEADER AND SHE'S IN THE BLEACHERS! …………………… I'M IN THE WRONG FOR GOING ON STAGE AND TAKING AWAY FROM HER MOMENT!…………….. BEYONCE'S VIDEO WAS THE BEST OF THIS DECADE!!!! I'M SORRY TO MY FANS IF I LET YOU GUYS DOWN!!!! I'M SORRY TO MY FRIENDS AT MTV. I WILL APOLOGIZE TO TAYLOR 2MRW. WELCOME TO THE REAL WORLD!!!! EVERYBODY WANNA BOOOOO ME BUT I'M A FAN OF REAL POP CULTURE!!! NO DISRESPECT BUT WE WATCHIN' THE SHOW AT THE CRIB RIGHT NOW CAUSE … WELL YOU KNOW!!!! I'M STILL HAPPY FOR TAYLOR!!!! BOOOYAAAWWWW!!!! YOU ARE VERY VERY TALENTED!!! I GAVE MY AWARDS TO OUTKAST WHEN THEY DESERVED IT OVER ME… THAT'S WHAT IT IS!!!!!!! I'M NOT CRAZY YALL, I'M JUST REAL. SORRY FOR THAT!!! I REALLY FEEL BAD FOR TAYLOR AND I'M SINCERELY SORRY!!! MUCH RESPECT!!!!!



His relationship with MTV is dunzo. And ummm, you might wanna rethink the "I'm not crazy" part.




So what was Taylor's response to the whole disaster?:


"Well, I was standing on stage because I was really excited because I had just won the award. And then I was really excited because Kanye West was on stage. And then I wasn't so excited anymore after that. I've been getting so many text messages and everybody's been really nice. So I've had a really, really fun night. It's been interesting definitely. I don't know him, and I've never met him, so… I don't want to start anything because I had a great night tonight."


Sucha sweetheart. Kanye defintely chose the wrong time to crash!





And last but not least. A move that has ended Lil Mama's career (?) as we know it:







At first I was like who's this trick hoppin on stage trying to get close to Jay-Z??? Beyonce must be so tight! Then I realized it was Z-Lister Lil Mama!!! Is this chick insane??? What was she thinkin comin on stage?! Nobody wanna see you! Move out the way bitch, we wanna see Hov & Alicia Keys, you know, real talented people!!! Didn't you get the clue when Jay tapped you on your leg?!! Shorty got too loose & now she looks like an idiot. Can't believe she even posed BBoy style at the end trying to be down with the crew. Ughhh my lawddd she looks like a troll next to those 2 superstars!



And what's worst, people are saying you can kinda hear in some audio clips Jay-Z telling Lil Mama“You’re T-paining right now”, in reference to what happened when T-Pain decided to hop on stage with Hov at HOT 97's SummerJam during D.O.A.




DOH!




And that was this year's VMAs, in a nutshell.

JACKSON UPDATES: JANET JACKSON PAY RESPECTS TO MICHAEL AT THE VMAS





This is what I was hoping & waiting for!!!



Extremely reliable sources are saying Miss Janet Jackson has been rehearsing vigorously for a surprise tribute to her brother for this year’s VMA’s!!!



The tribute is said to bring the house down & is being choreographed by some of the top dancers in the game! It'll feature at least 20 background dancers, all of who have been practicing non stop 15 hours a day!



This will truly be a performance to remember! BET just didn't do it right & it's now up to MTV and their VMA's to pay homage to MJ correctly.



****On another note, some of the names for the Michael Jackson Tribute concert goin down in Vienna, Austria have been released. So far we know the concert will include soul group Sister Sledge, Mary J. Blige, Natalie Cole & Chris Brown!



More names are expected to be released within the next few weeks.



If it were up to me, I'd say Breezy should be a part of that Janet Jackson MJ tribute too! Although, the gossip mill is saying MTV is quietly trying to exclude him from the VMA's since Rihanna will be in the buildin too but who knows!



I'll say this again, Chris Brown needs to be involved with anything & everything Michael Jackson.



VMA's are this Sunday! Coverage begins at 7PM.

MARIAH'S ALBUM PUSHED BACK





Mariah Carey has a string of performances she was set to do but now has cancelled. First it was the Today's Show, now it also includes the MTV VMA's and on top of that she's also cancelled receiving a star on the famous Hollywood Walk of Fame!




Mariah Carey's camp stated that the reasoning behind all the the cancellations is because Mariah wants to make a solid album & give her fans the best music she possibly could.




Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel will no longer be released at the end of August as it was originally suppose to drop but will instead go toe to toe with Madonna's album on September 29th.





It's the battle of the divas all month, who will win??!
