Kelis Shows Off Her Baby Bump

sweatpantsmom — Mon, 16 Mar 2009 21:35:00 GMT

You'll be happy to know I've decided to take the high road and not use 'milkshake' in the title of any more posts about Kelis. Unfortunately, as you can see it makes for a really boring title.

But Kelis is anything but boring, showing off her growing baby bump while rockin' a tight blue top and some crazy lace leggings. I love the blue in her hair - something tells me after the baby's born she won't always have the time to match her locks to her outfit.

Kelis and her husband, rapper Nas, are expecting their first child together sometime this year. Nas recently announced on his website that it's a boy. Hope they don't name him Milkshake, 'cause then I'm definitely going to have to go back to using that in my titles.

Kelis: Her Milkshake Really DOES Bring All the Boys to the Yard

sweatpantsmom — Wed, 18 Feb 2009 19:05:00 GMT

As you know, singer Kelis and rapper Nas are expecting a baby together. And now Nas has revealed that his wife is expecting a boy. Nas made his announcement on hip-hop website GlobalGrind:

"Personally, life is good. I’m sure that y’all heard K is expecting. The internet seems to be more excited than I am. It’s crazy! I got too much to think about, and I didn’t wanna leave all my fans out the loop. But I wanted to let ya’ll know from me personally that I’m having my first SON!!!!!

I been celebrating life ya’ll. Also I want you all to know that the Nas and Damian Marley album is coming in the next few months. It’s something we have been secretly working on. Tour this summer too!"

This is the first child for Kelis. Nas has a 15-year-old daughter, Destiny. Congrats to the expectant couple! And I promise - no more milkshake jokes. Well, maybe just a few.

Kelis and Nas Officially Expecting

Karl Erikson — Tue, 10 Feb 2009 22:34:00 GMT

Nas confirmed it officially during the Grammy Awards on Sunday: "I got another one coming in '09, yeah!" Kelis is definitely pregnant. As for the sex of the baby, Nas said, "I find out what it's gonna be next week, so I'm happy."

Kelis is in her first trimester, but already showing a baby bump. It'll be the first baby for Kelis, 29, but Nas, 35, is a dad to 15-year-old daughter Destiny.

No more speculation...there's a baby rapper coming and it's probably going to have yet another wacky name.

Oh, and hey, look at what the power couple wore to the Grammys on Sunday. I had to bleep out most of the letters. Can you guess wha their shirts say? No, not "nickel." Nooo, not Nigeria. But you're getting warmer. Yeah, now THAT'S Klassy with a Kapital K.

Diddy Pimping Out His Twin Daughters?

Sassy Smith — Mon, 27 Oct 2008 11:03:00 GMT

Diddy and his twin daughters are featured in L'Uomo Vogue and who approved the photos? Diddy did right? Why, as a father, would he want his girls, who are two, to be photographed nude, wearing only bow ties?

D'Lila and Jessie, are posing with their dad, on a black faux fur rug, wearing only ties. Sure, most parents have naked pics of their babies in the tub and the like, but they're for private viewing (and blackmailing your child when they're grown and at their wedding reception *wink*). Not published for the world to see - and these girls aren't babies, they're now two. I think it's a bad idea. Listen, most people view that photo as innocent - anyone who's normal. But there are pervs out there who love that sort of thing. Doesn't Diddy have a kid's clothing line? Why not put them in something from that?

Sandra Rose wrote on her blog:

"Sean Combs continues to demonstate extraordinarily poor judgement when it comes to exploiting his twins.

Sean brazenly pimps his naked twin girls inside the November issue of L'Uomo Vogue magazine. Yes, those are girls with bow ties on looking like little boys!

"Obviously his desperate plea for attention is working because I am posting this incredibly distasteful photo. By pimping his twins to this magazine, Sean Combs has sunk to a new low."

I'm not posting the photo, because I disagree with it. If you want to see it, click the "source" below.

What do you think of the photo? Bad idea or perfectly OK?

First Photos Of P.Diddy's Love Child

Sassy Smith — Fri, 17 Oct 2008 17:07:00 GMT

Sean "P. Diddy" Combs is dad to six children (5 biological and one adopted) - Quincy Jones Brown, 16, Justin Dior Combs, 14, Christian Casey Combs, 10, twins D'Lila Star & Jesse James Combs, 22 months and Chance Combs, 2, who is the daughter he fathered with Sarah Chapman, while in a serious relationship with Kim Porter (she's mom to Quincy Jones and the twins). Up until now, no one had seen pics of the little girl, and she's a cutie. She's actually just a few months older than his twin girls.

Pic after the jump!

Chance Combs attended Diddy's fashion show in Atlanta on Thursday, where she was photographed. Combs finally acknowledged his child last October and had released this statement in regards to that: "At first, I wasn't sure if this was my child. Now that it has become clear she is, I will take care of her for the rest of her life."

Rapper The Game Escapes Jail on Battery Charges

Karl Erikson — Thu, 02 Oct 2008 16:02:00 GMT

There's this rapper called "The Game." What kind of freaking name is that, anyway? Can you imagine his 5-year-old kid at school? "My daddy is The Game."

"What game? Candy Land?"

"No, THE Game."

"Oh, Hungry Hungry Hippos?"

At any rate, The Game - who really does have two sons - is in legal trouble. I know, a rapper in trouble with the law. What will they think of next? Apparently he got in a fist fight with his cousin at a family funeral a few months ago because, you know, rappers are classy that way. They're really like rednecks on the Jerry Springer Show. With more rhythm.

The Game, whose real name is Jayceon Terrell Taylor, had to go to court over this criminal battery charge. The judge said that Taylor won't have to go to jail if he attends 36 anger management meetings by February. This is probably the way to go for Taylor, since he's currently on parole for a previous gun offense. I KNOW! A rapper with a gun! Crazy.

But anger management classes? What the hell is The Game gonna do for a living after that? I mean, you take the anger out of rap and what are you left with? Reggae?

Rapper T.I. Ordered to Increase Child Suport

Karl Erikson — Wed, 24 Sep 2008 21:35:00 GMT

An update to the T.I. child support story. Rapper T.I. has been ordered to pay more child support...more than $3,000 a month. T.I. also has to pay the children's uninsured medical bills, their private schooling, and any extracurricular activities. Lashon Dixon, mother of the children - Domani and Messiah - will keep primary custody, but the couple will now share joint custody.

T.I. - whose real name is Clifford Harris - has a lot of kids, 6 altogether, with various mothers. The 27-year-old rapper says that there's nothing more important to him than his kids, and that the media has been used to manipulate and distort the facts.

The facts are that T.I. gets around. At this rate, he'll have 40 kids by the time he hits 40. That's a lot of child support.

Audioslave Daddy Exposes His Child to Drugfest?

Karl Erikson — Wed, 10 Sep 2008 13:15:00 GMT

Audioslave front man Chris Cornell was out and about with little Toni at the Fashion Rocks thingie the other night at Radio City Music Hall. Just the sort of thing you want to take your child to, really. A bunch of emaciated supermodels and coked out rockers all celebrating what passes for fashion. Yep, that's where I'd take MY 4-year-old daughter. Give her all sorts of unhealthy images about what women should look like. Very healthy.

Cornell has two other children, as well. His second child with current wife Vickey is Christopher (2-1/2). And there's Lillian Jean, 8, from ex-wife Susan Silver. I suppose he decided to take them on a crackhouse field trip later.

Former Soundgarden dude Cornell has a new solo album (Scream) coming out next month. Why are you yelling? Oh, no, "Scream" is the name of the album. It wasn't a stage directive. Get this, the new album is produced by...wait for it...Timbaland. No shit. If Chris Cornell starts rapping, I'm going to claw my ears out.

Rapper Rick Ross Trying to Beat Child Support Rap

She claims that the rapper hasn't done a thing for their son, 2-year-old William Leonard Roberts III. Yeah, Rick Ross' real name is - take a guess - William Leonard Roberts II.

According to Ross' attorney, Ross is a great father. Yeah, this is the same guy who is also being sued for assault against a DJ at this year's Ozone Awards. I'm sure he's a class act. I need to get some of those hubcap around my neck, yo.

Best Parenting Advice Ever! Snoop Dogg Knows His Shiznat!

Sassy Smith — Tue, 17 Jun 2008 17:32:00 GMT

Snoop Dogg, married father of three kids, has some awesome advice for first time parents-to-be Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz. Snoop heard that Ashlee and Pete had a little sompin' sompin' on the way & paid them a visit at their home and he gives a basic run-down of what to expect and what sort of things you need to get through the first few months of having a newborn. Things such as, nip-nips for your booze bottles, videos with scantily clad women and for goodness sake, do not put the baby's crib in your room - Snoop recommends you put the baby's bed in the garage, 'cause duh, who wants to hear a crying baby when you're trying to get some action?

Video of Snoop's parenting tips after the jump!

Here's a brief run-down, take notes:

1. You put baby's bed in the garage because you and your partner will want to knock da boots off each other after baby is born and you can't do that if the baby is crying in your room.

2. Forget Baby Einstein videos! You put Snoop Dogg's semi-pornagraphic music videos on the TV - he said baby's will stare at that sh*t all day. Great way to keep baby occupied, so you can.... uh, see # 1.

3. Do not get rid of your malt liquor - get some nip-nips (bottle nipples for you that are not down with your slang). No, silly, it's not for the baby, it's for you, so you can get a good night's sleep and not hear anything, including a crying baby. No tossin' and turnin'!

And that's about it for Snoop's advice. He hopes Ashlee and Pete have a healthy baby boy - but I spied a pink bed, so maybe they're having a girl? Or twins - one of each? Snoop doesn't want the Wentz's to let their baby rap - because, as he said, they are the whitest couple on earth.

Gotta love Snoop. He gives the best advice all.the.time. Maybe he should hand out some to his wife.

Enjoy the video!

Rapper and reality TV star Snoop Dogg might be sleeping alone tonight - his wife Shante Brodus was arrested!

The 32-year-old was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence early Saturday morning in Orange County, CA.

Shante was pulled over at around 12:15 a.m., booked, cited and given a notice to appear in court. She, thankfully, did not have any of the couple's three children with her at the time.

I don't get it - you're rich, have a BRAIN and yet still drive (allegedly) drunk. Makes no sense to me! Put your thinking cap on Shante or you'll end up in the DOGG house.

Snoop Dogg Says Crack Ain't So Whack

Hey kids - Snoop Dogg says don't go wasting your money on Harvard. What you really need is a big rock in your pocket if you want to get somewhere in this world.

"A lot of people like to fool you and say that you're not smart if you never went to college, but common sense rules over everything. That's what I learned from selling crack," the Grammy-nominated rapper says.

I'll bet Snoop's kids can't wait to have their daddy give a speech at their high school graduation. Instead of filling their heads with all that useless crap about 'persevering' and 'aiming high' he could give them some real solid advice on how to build a better crack pipe, or how to kick your dealer's ass if he tries to sell you some bad shit.

Fo shizzle!

50 Cent Tried To Kill Me!

Sassy Smith — Fri, 30 May 2008 21:12:00 GMT

Fiddy's baby mama is hoppin' mad, and rightly so. She and her son were inside the home that burned early this morning - the house that her ex purchased. She's laying down some pretty harsh claims! Shaniqua Tompkins is claiming that 50 tried to kill her!

Video link after the jump!

Shaniqua went off on a rant (legit or not, not sure) earlier after returning to the home that she and her son, Marquise resided in and she's on video saying that 50 Cent is obsessed with her and that he had someone try to kill her. Wow!

From TMZ:

The lawyer for 50 Cent's baby mama, Shaniqua Tompkins, tells TMZ that she heard "someone" come into the house this morning at 4 AM, shortly before the fire broke out around a hour later.

Paul Catsandonis, Shaniqua's lawyer, tells us that his client is "traumatized" by the fire and that the kids are similarly in total shock. Six people, including Tompkins and their 10-year-old son Marquise, were in the house. They all were transported to the hospital and treated for smoke inhalation.

She alleges that Fiddy hasn't as of yet, called to see how his son is doing. Hey, I don't know whether or not Shaniqua's claims are real but the fact that 50 didn't even check on his son, is pretty low!

50 Cent Evicts Baby Mama and His Son

Fiddy's House Up In Flames - Suspicious!

Sassy Smith — Fri, 30 May 2008 15:33:00 GMT

Remember rapper 50 Cent aka Fiddy aka Curtis Jackson purchased a home for his baby mama (they're not together now) and his 10-year-old son? It was a $1.4 million pad which was supposed to be a place for his ex and his child to live comfortably, then the singer wanted to evict them (nice) and demanded that she pay $4,500 in rent. Well now, that little issue went up in smoke - literally. The house went up in flames - Shaniqua and Marquise were in the home at the time - and it's looking very, very suspicious!

From TMZ:

The fire broke out at the six bedroom, five bath house in Dix Hills, NY around 5:00 AM. Six people, including the rapper's ex Shaniqua Tompkins and their 10-year-old son Marquise, were in the house. They were all transported to the hospital and treated for smoke inhalation.

The Chief of the Dix Hills Fire Department tells TMZ that dogs are currently searching the burned out rubble, as the intensity of the fire made it highly suspect. The Chief says they're searching for what substance could have possibly been used as an igniter.

The house has been the subject of a bitter dispute between Fiddy, whose real name is Curtis Jackson, and Tompkins. The rapper reportedly bought the home -- one of the biggest cribs in the area -- for a cool $1.4 mil in January 2007. Last month he tried to evict Tompkins and Marquis from the house, demanding she pay him $4,500 a month in rent.

Interesting....keep you posted!

How very sad - Rapper, actor, and TV host of Pimp My Ride, Xzibit has blogged on Myspace, telling his fans that his newborn son Xavier Kingston Joiner passed away.

Here is what he wrote:

"ITS 4:32AM AND I HAVE SOME BAD NEWS........

As you all know I told shared with you the announcment of my newborn son Xavier Kingston Joiner on may 15th and also informed you that he was born prematurly. well this week was extremly difficult for him because his lungs were not strong enough to handle regular oxygen on his own. Xavier passed away this morning at 3:30am and I must tell you this, It is unatural for a parent to bury a child. I am telling you this because of the same reason I tell you when im having great times, life is too short to be fake. Hold on to your kids if you have them, protect them and show them you love them everyday you wake up and see them, dont take a second you get to hug them teach them and care for them for granted. You can have all the material wealth in the universe but it is NOTHING compared to having your family. I am thankful for all of my blessings and im not one to question God's perfect plan, so I leave you with great love and thanks for the love that was sent earlier on my pervious blog to my son. Of course I need to take some time and handle my loss, STAY FOCUSED PEOPLE. Its not promised to any of us."

We are very sorry for his loss.

The 32-year old rapper is being sued by ex girlfriend Shaniqua Tompkins because she claims that Fiddy is trying to evict her and their 10-year old son, Marquise, from their Long Island home.

Court papers filed in Manhattan, accuse 50 of breach of contract. Shaniqua's lawyer says that 50 Cent broke a promise to buy a house for her. He was supposed to put the house in her name but when the closing came around, he put the house in his name only.

Tompkin's receives child support from the singer, who's real name is Curtis Jackson. 50's lawyer has not made a public statement.

Hopefully the ex's can work this out for the sake of their son. I'm quite certain Fiddy can afford to give them the house!

Juvenile's Four-Year-Old Daughter Murdered

Sassy Smith — Sat, 01 Mar 2008 00:56:00 GMT

Rapper Juvenile's four-year old daughter was murdered - From TMZ:

Cops in Georgia arrested a 17-year-old boy on Friday and charged him with killing his mother, who was a local sheriff's deputy, and his two small sisters. One of those little girls was the daughter of rapper Juvenile.

Anthony Tyrone Terrell Jr. allegedly gunned down his mother, Gwinnett County Sheriff's Deputy Joy Deleston, 39, and her two daughters, Micaiah, 11, and Jelani, 4.

Jelani was Juvenile's daughter. In 2003, the rapper, whose real name is Terius Gray, was arrested for abandonment of a dependent child after a DNA test determined he was the father.

Terrell, a sophomore at Central Gwinnett High School, has been charged with three counts of murder and three counts of aggravated assault. He is currently being held in the DeKalb County Jail.

A rep from Atlantic Records had no comment.

More details to follow as they become available.

The Game Jailed on Gun Charge

Karen — Tue, 12 Feb 2008 15:31:00 GMT

Daddy to Harlom (4) and King (10 months), rapper The Game has been sentenced to 60 days on a gun charge.

the artist, born Jayceon Terrell Taylor, pleaded no contest to a felony firearms charge for pointing a gun at another player during a pickup basketball game last year in South Los Angeles.

Taylor could have faced more time if he had been found guilty on all related charges, which includes making criminal threats and of exhibiting a firearm in the presence of a peace officer. Instead he was found guilty of possession of a firearm in a school zone.

On top of 60 days in jail, Taylor has to perform 150 hours of community service and 3 years of formal probation.
