Chris Brown-Back to Black

Attached with this photo(right), Chris Brown tweeted yesterday: 'Black Out!'. Yes ladies, he's black and he's baaaad! (:

This is the first photo released since his last "hair outburst" and Brown has received bittersweet feedback. Some love it, some hate it but, all cannot deny!

One month ago from yesterday, the handsome R&B singer bleached his hair completely blonde, and although the jokes came rolling in from that Twitpic...fans have grown to love! On comments posted in regards to this picture, fans requested the blonde be brought back!

We'll see how Breezy reeeeally feels about that one!
Which one are you feelin` though?

LaLa Vasquez on Carmelo Love Child Rumors

This past Wednesday, the 23rd, the lovely Lala Vasquez-Anthony(wife to Carmelo Anthony, New Your Knicks NBA Star) stopped by New York's radio station Power 105.1 and joined the Breakfast Club! LaLa not only diffused the rumors regarding Carmelo's faithfulness to her but she also discussed her thoughts on VH1's television reality show,Basketball Wives, Kim Kardashian's song, and sending nude pictures out of herself...

Women coming onto Carmelo Anthony(her husband):

When I had a regular boyfriend women were throwing at him, it comes with the territory of having a man to begin with. What I do is, I don't entertain that. I have my own life and my own career that I give my time to so I don't even think about that. Now if something was to come in my face, and I have to deal with it, I won't have a problem dealing with it.

Rumors on Carmelo's Supposed Love Child:

That story is laughable... Let me just tell you one thing, if I knew about a baby... first of all, what kind of women would it make me to say, "Hide your kid"? That's just unbelievable; I would never do that. I don't know if I'd still be here right now if there was a secret baby so it would be a whole different story. You wouldn't see me smiling and having a good time right now.

Joining the cast of Basketball Wives:

That is not true. I am not joining the cast. I was asked in the beginning, when the show first started, to be apart of it by Shaunie. You know, after talking to them I just realized that's not something I want to do but I do think the show gives everybody what they want, which is entertainment and drama...

Kim Kardashian's Record:

First of all, the record was done for charity so there has to be something said for someone of her caliber to do something like that for charity. Second of all, she admitted she was having a good time while doing it. It's not like she put the record out like, 'Yo. I'm going to the next Beyonce or Mariah Carey'. It took guts to do that! I mean, you got to give credit where credit is due whether you like it or not...

Ciara and Stoudamire:

That's not true. She's been coming to the games with me.

Sending Nude Pics:

I think that any woman that wants to keep her marriage spicy and going should send naked pictures to their husband or significant other.

Preventing Leakage of Photos:

I've been trying to cut my head off more.

Baby from Notorious B.I.G.'s Album 'Ready to Die' Revealed

Many rumors and assumptions speculated after the late, Notorious B.I.G. dropped his debut album, 'Ready to Die' regarding the cover. Ready to Die's album cover featured an African-American male baby with an afro and nothing on but a diaper. Some thought the picture was one of Biggie's childhood while others thought the child was one of rapper, P. Diddy's kids. However, all were wrong. The photograph was of a young man, now 18 years old, by the name of Keithroy Yearwood.

Yearwood participated in an interview with the New York Daily News, telling how his well known baby picture is mistaken for a publicity plea as of today...
Every time people find out, they ask me if I got a lot of money out of it.
Which in reality, he didn't. Only coming out with $150 for the two hour photo shoot, Yearwood is constantly mistaken as a lifetime profitee.

The Bronx native goes on to tell the NY Daily,

I just want people to know that's me. The truth is finally coming out.

In continuing to prove Yearwood's claim, his mother, Delcenia Burns, dug up photos and papers from the child modeling agency(Chicky's Kids) to reveal her son's truth.

Yearwood also explains that he talks very little about the album cover because people find it hard to believe at yet he is very honored, telling NY Daily News that his favorite songs off of the album or Biggie's hits, 'Juicy' and 'Big Poppa'.

When Wiz Was 17

There once was a clean-body, no hair Wiz Khalifa. Yes, he was once 17...featured on MTV's television show "When I Was 17", which shows celebrities now as they were at that age and what they did from personal interviews, Wiz let's us go back in time with him...

Wiz always had the rapper ambition inside of him, said to have sold mixtapes in his high school's hallways.

His love for tattoos was also shown during the age of 17, letting us all in on his right arm history. The name Wiz Khalifa was tatted on him that young in life.

Wiz, and his mom Peachie will testify, says he was the life of the party. He walked around with a brush(typical pretty boy), and always rocked the Chucks because those shoes were affordable and fit his budget.

Wiz Khalifa shares the story behind his rapper name and whom presented the two-part name upon him. Wiz also goes into detail about his Senior prom experience and his "popularity" amongst the girls at school. Check it out below...
