The Hollywood Bubbly

In case you didn't watch last night's ANTM finale, Cycle 12 ended with Teyona being crowned America's Next Top Model.

KUDOS to her because she worked it out all season long. Aminat came in 3rd and Allison was 2nd. What do you guys thinks?? Did she deserve it? Holla at me in the comments.

So Hoopz is addressing recent rumors of her recent leaked sex tape. She is claiming that her ex-boyfriend is the one who leaked the tape and that she only did it because she thought it would be deleted.
Come on now, I don't feel sorry for any of these chicks at all. I don't give a flying hoot who you are or who you do it for. You put your self in compromising situations, you end up with compromising consequences. Just deal with it.

Pop The Cork to check out the 17sec Teaser of the video. (Do I have to warn you peeps this is NSFW???)

John Legend is keeping it in the family when it comes to finding the next artists for his HomeSchool Records label. He signed his younger brother Vaughn Anthony in November of 2007. After years of training and performing background vocals, John feels now is the time to bring Mr. Vaughn to the forefront. From Billboard:

Vaughn has a great voice and a great talent for writing, and I've seen that grow over time because he just worked so hard at it. I think he's ready now.
To introduce Anthony, Legend will host a showcase for industry executives at S.O.B.'s in New York on Thursday night (May 14) in the hopes of securing a distribution deal. "It's an important venue for me," says Legend. "It was one of the places where I really launched my career." Chrisette Michele, Ryan Leslie and Kat DeLuna are among the VIPs expected to attend, and both Legend and Estelle are rumored to be performing in addition to Anthony, who will debut seven tracks from the upcoming album. As for the inevitable comparisons between siblings, Legend insists he's not concerned. "I think people make too much of it," he says. "Of course our voices are similar, we have the same genetic material. But the songs reflect his personality, and he's not me."
Anthony agrees. "Not only do me and John sound alike," he says, "but we sound like my uncles and my father. There's nothing I can really do about it but just be myself--which is far left from where [John] is--and try and make the best music I can make."

Now that's what's up! Definitely looking forward to Mr. Vaughn Anthony surfing the music waves!

Eminem was spotted giving photogs the finger (as usual) in London while on the way to a recording studio.




Gotta love some Slim Shady!

The King of 'Fits' has his next battle. Kanye West apparently isn't a big fan of the now overly popular social site, Twitter. He posted the following message on his blog about his "fake" accounts:

This spaz comes courtesy of losers making fake Kanye West Twitter accounts) I DON’T HAVE A F—ING TWITTER… WHY WOULD I USE TWITTER??? I ONLY BLOG 5 PERCENT OF WHAT I’M UP TO IN THE FIRST PLACE. I’M ACTUALLY SLOW DELIVERING CONTENT BECAUSE I’M TOO BUSY ACTUALLY BUSY BEING CREATIVE MOST OF THE TIME AND IF I’M NOT AND I’M JUST LAYING ON A BEACH I WOULDN’T TELL THE WORLD. EVERYTHING THAT TWITTER OFFERS I NEED LESS OF. THE PEOPLE AT TWITTER KNOW I DON’T HAVE A F—ING TWITTER SO FOR THEM TO ALLOW SOMEONE TO POSE AS ME AND ACCUMULATE OVER A MILLION NAMES IS IRRESPONSIBLE AND DECEITFUL TO THERE FAITHFUL USERS. REPEAT… THE HEADS OF TWITTER KNEW I DIDN’T HAVE A TWITTER AND THEY HAVE TO KNOW WHICH ACCOUNTS HAVE HIGH ACTIVITY ON THEM. IT’S A F—ING FARCE AND IT MAKES ME QUESTION WHAT OTHER SO CALLED CELEBRITY TWITTERS ARE ACTUALLY REAL OR FAKE. HEY TWITTER, TAKE THE SO CALLED KANYE WEST TWITTER DOWN NOW …. WHY? … BECAUSE MY CAPS LOCK KEY IS LOUD!!!!!!!!!

I dont' blame him one bit. The execs for Twitter probably are the ones behind the fake pages anyways. I tried Twitter and I so don't understand the hype about it. Just not my cup of tea.

Ciara recently performed Never Ever live on Jay Leno and them vocals wasn't too pretty...



SMH...This reminds me to never go and see her in concert. I can only imagine that would be much worst...On a positive note, she looks great and her moves are always on point.
