<p><a href="http://bellejenkins.wordpress.com/2009/09/02/roxanne-shante-is-a-fucking-liar-im-disgusted/" target="_blank"><strong><span style="color:#800000;">Roxanne Shante</span></strong></a> has finally issued an apology (if you can really call this that) for her blatant LIES about her education. Like to read it? Here it go:<!--more--></p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I would like to thank my long time fans and supporters for your continued support. I am humbled and grateful to all of you for that. Without going into all of the details as of right now, I would like to apologize that this story regarding my post recording career has caused such a ruckus. The entire story will be revealed at a later time.</p>
<p>Throughout my career and life, I have been faced with many challenges, both professionally and personally. Like all of you, I am human, and may have not made the correct decision all the time. And, like anyone else, I would like to think that my entire life or career is not judged by one error or mistake.</p>
<p>It is very easy to criticize someone and I have left myself open to criticism. That is fair. There are plenty of people that will attest that I have done a lot for them. It seems though, that negativity gets more attention than positivity.</p>
<p>All I can say to that, is before you level any further criticism and cynicism, walk in my shoes. I am making this statement to apologize to the people that truly care about me for any angst that this situation has caused, and to thank them for their continued support. I am proud of what I have been able to do for so many others, and would like to let those persons know that I will continue to be there for them no matter what.</p>
<p>I am proud that during my twenty plus years as a pioneer in the Hip-Hop industry, to have opened doors for those who came after me, such as MC Lyte, Salt N Peppa, and Queen Latifah to name a few. I will have no further statement in regards to this matter at this time.&#8221; [<a href="http://www.vibe.com/mt/2009/10/roxanne-shante-has-finally-spoken/" target="_blank">SOURCE</a>]</p></blockquote>

<p>I&#8217;m DYING LAUGHING @ how far back she was from the stage to even do this in the first place. It&#8217;s not even like she was sitting in the front row. NO&#8230;this bitch CATWALKED down the aisles to create the most embarrassing &#38; regretful moment of her career.</p>

<p><span style="color:#800000;"><strong>Common</strong></span> says the <strong><span style="color:#800000;">Kanye</span></strong> <a href="http://www.vibe.com/mt/2009/09/kanye-spazzes-out-again-at-commons-charity-concert/" target="_blank">chicken incident</a> is not true. Why <em>wouldn&#8217;t</em> we believe it though?? What wouldn&#8217;t <em>you</em> do for some chicken?? You already saw <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y-YZe-iqOWw" target="_blank">what I did</a>. Straight from <span style="color:#000000;"><a href="http://thinkcommon.com/blog/2009/09/30/thanks-to-all-who-came-out-this-weekend/" target="_blank">Common</a></span>&#8217;s blog:</p>
<blockquote><p>This past weekend we had the second annual Common and Friends concert as a fundraiser for the Common Ground Foundation. It turned out to be an incredible and monumental night. Legendary artists performed and the crowd was phenomenal. For me, getting to perform New York State of Mind with Nas and spit his verse was a highlight for me. Getting to rock with Mos, Kanye and Talib again felt like I had just reunited with my brothers. To think that De La Soul, Queen Latifah, Ludacris, Heavy D, the roots and all of the other previously mentioned artists were all apart of this good cause and expressed their talents freely, just really blew me away. It truly was a classic night in Hip Hop and music in general.</p>
<p>Oh yeah – And one more thing…. It’s funny how people try to blame Kanye for things. I just heard some news that was untrue about Kanye at my benefit concert. For those who are concerned, to all who want to know, Kanye was fed well and had a blast at the show. He contributed to the cause with his heart and soul and I am very grateful. That’s my brotha and nothing but good things happened for us that night. Keep checking back…I’ll be posting pics up later tonight. Peace.</p></blockquote>

<p><span style="color:#800000;"><strong>Lady Gaga</strong></span> performed at Dar Constitution Hall in Washington, DC on Tuesday night and there was no weewee to be found.

<p>Not on the level of &#8220;Slave 4 U&#8221; or &#8220;Womanizer,&#8221; but it&#8217;ll do.  Gotta admit I love to see Britney doing good though. She&#8217;s no fun when she&#8217;s drugged out.

<p>Anybody surprised by this is a plum fool. It was only a matter of time before <strong><span style="color:#800000;">Usher</span> </strong>&#38; his 42-year-old cougar <span style="color:#800000;"><strong>Grace Miguel </strong></span>were gonna have to decide btwn their relationship, &#38; her position at Def Jam. Here&#8217;s the info I spotted on <a href="http://egyptsaidso.com/are-they-dating/guess-who-got-fired/" target="_blank">Egypt&#8217;s blog</a>:<!--more--></p>
<blockquote><p>Def Jam exec <strong>Grace Miguel<span style="font-weight:normal;">, the woman who has been romantically linked with Usher, just got the ax from Def Jam.</span></strong> Rumor has it that <strong>L.A. Reid</strong> <em>forced</em> Grace to resign last week because she was ‘mixing too much business with pleasure’.  Her very public trysts with the still legally married Usher have allegedly been bringing bad press on the label and his reps are afraid that the bad publicity will hurt his public image.</p>
<p>Here’s the kicker, according to YBF, “Usher not only cheated on soon to be ex-wife <strong>Tameka</strong> with Grace, who is 12 years his senior…but Grace was indeed married at the time as well.  She filed for<span style="color:#000000;"> </span><span style="color:#ff3399;"><span style="color:#000000;">divorce</span></span><span style="color:#000000;"> co</span>nveniently around the same time Usher did.  Tameka was also married and ‘filing for divorce’ around the same time she and Usher got together.”</p></blockquote>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3406" title="Khloe Kardashian x Lamar Odom" src="http://bellejenkins.wordpress.com/files/2009/09/mx0222638-504x800.jpg" border="1" alt="Khloe Kardashian x Lamar Odom" width="504" height="800" /></p>
<p>Read that again!! Not <span style="color:#800000;"><strong>Lamar Odom</strong></span>!! Just <span style="color:#800000;"><strong>Khloe Kardashian</strong></span>!!  According to the <a href="http://www.nydailynews.com/gossip/2009/09/25/2009-09-25_khloe_kardashian_to_ring_up_300000_in_wedding_deal.html" target="_blank">NY Daily News</a>, she inked a $300,000 deal w/OK! Magazine, the highest bidder for exclusive wedding pics. But check <em>this</em> out&#8230;the couple is working out the details of their &#8220;post-nup&#8221; since they had to get married on Sunday since her reality show would be footing the $1M bill. Odom is smitten, but he ain&#8217;t THAT whipped. Apparently things aren&#8217;t so smooth @ the negotiations table. Hmm&#8230;<!--more--></p>
<blockquote><p>Odom has lawyered up and so has <strong>Khloe</strong>. The problem is &#8230; they have to get married on Sunday and there isn&#8217;t enough time to hash out the details of a prenuptial agreement.</p>
<p>Why, you ask, isn&#8217;t there enough time? We&#8217;ve learned they must get married on Sunday because one of the Kardashian reality shows is footing the $1 million bill for the wedding, but the deal is that the wedding must be shot this Sunday.</p>
<p>So we&#8217;re told Lamar wants a postnup &#8212; meaning the agreement will be hashed out and hopefully signed after Sunday&#8217;s event.</p>
<p>Now here&#8217;s the intrigue. There&#8217;s talk that Sunday&#8217;s wedding might not be the real deal &#8212; it could be a non-binding ceremony. It&#8217;s common with a postnup that bride and groom would not officially tie the knot until after they sign the document. What they typically <em>do </em>sign before the ceremony is an acknowledgment that it&#8217;s not really an official wedding, to prevent misunderstandings down the road.</p>
<p>And speaking of problems &#8230; we&#8217;re told lawyers for Odom and Kardashian are already arguing and hitting road blocks. [<a href="http://www.tmz.com/2009/09/26/lamar-odom-khloe-kardashian-married-prenup-problem/" target="_blank">SOURCE</a>]</p></blockquote>

<p>I really don&#8217;t understand the need to hang on to this particular hair piece, but a wig can be repaired, &#38; it doesn&#8217;t have to be like this!! Is there some sentimental value attached to the piece the rest of us don&#8217;t know about??</p>
<p>In spite of what&#8217;s going on about the follicles, <span style="color:#800000;"><strong>Beyonce</strong></span> looks terrific, &#38; <span style="color:#800000;"><strong>Nicole Scherzinger</strong></span> always does.

<p>But before I get into that, isn&#8217;t it funny how everybody&#8217;s turning their back on <span style="color:#800000;"><strong>Real Housewives of Atlanta</strong></span>&#8217;s <span style="color:#800000;"><strong>NeNe</strong></span>, when I told y&#8217;all from DAY ONE she was an insecure bully w/issues?? I mean I&#8217;m not one to rub it in, but I FUCKING TOLD YOU SO!!  You could see the creation of that monster from the first season, &#38; of course <span style="color:#800000;"><strong>Bravo</strong></span>&#8217;s doing their part by playing up the drama. But there&#8217;s only so much editing you can do. Nobody can make you say or do  shit that you don&#8217;t want to!!</p>
<p>But back to <span style="color:#800000;"><strong>Bethenny</strong></span> &#38; the gang. Wouldn&#8217;t you know Bethenny &#38; <strong><span style="color:#800000;">Kelly</span></strong> actually call themselves friends now?? After all that drama?? And guess who doesn&#8217;t take Bethenny&#8217;s phone calls now?? <span style="color:#800000;"><strong>Jill Zarin</strong></span>!! Word on the streets is that the other girls are more than a little bit salty though that Bethenny&#8217;s getting her own show: <span style="color:#800000;"><strong>Skinny and the City</strong></span>. <!--more--></p>
<blockquote><p>Frenemies Bethenny Frankel and Kelly Bensimon may have made peace over the summer, but the cat-fighting on this season&#8217;s &#8220;Real Housewives of New York&#8221; has only just begun.  On the show, which is slated to premiere in early 2010, the Skinnygirl creator will be feuding with all of her co-stars aside from &#8211; ironically &#8211; Bensimon. This time around, Bethenny&#8217;s biggest enemy appears to be her former BFF, Jill Zarin.</p>
<p>The rift between the ex-besties was evident late last week during a dinner Zarin hosted for 40 friends at Saks Fifth Avenue; Frankel was the only &#8220;Housewife&#8221;  who hadn&#8217;t been invited. While guests gossiped about the chef&#8217;s noticeable absence, Bensimon &#8211; who appears to be playing both sides &#8211; took a place of honor beside the evening&#8217;s hostess, a spot previously reserved for Frankel.</p>
<p>But it isn&#8217;t just her close pal that the Skinnygirl is alienating herself from: Frankel has been gradually cutting ties with Countess Luann De Lesseps, Alex McCord and Ramona Singer since news that she&#8217;d get her own show on Bravo broke during the summer months.</p>
<p>It will become obvious to fans of the New York version of the franchise, which began filming its third season Aug. 31, that the chef is separating herself from the pack. Frankel skipped US Weekly&#8217;s 25 Most Stylish New Yorkers fete in early September (all the other ladies attended) and was absent from a night of filming at Emanuel Ungaro&#8217;s Madison Ave. store. Even when she did join her castmates &#8211; such as at Pamella Roland&#8217;s Fashion Week show &#8211; the atmosphere was frosty. Frankel and De Lesseps had a front-row fight which, of course, will be played out large on the small screen come 2010.</p>
<p>However, sources say that separating Frankel from the other &#8220;Housewives&#8221; is a calculated move by Bravo producers, who want to wean her off of the show so she can stand alone.</p>
<p>Frankel has been filming several scenes solo - including a party shot at Meatpacking District nightclub Tenjune &#8211; to pave the way for her solo project, the working-titled &#8220;Skinny in the City.&#8221; Says a source, &#8220;Distancing herself from the cast will make the transition away from the ‘Real Housewives&#8217; that much more seamless.&#8221;</p>
<p>Reps for Bravo, Frankel and Zarin did not return calls for comment by press time. [<a href="http://www.nydailynews.com/gossip/2009/09/28/2009-09-28_friend_list_of_housewife_bethenny_frankel_gets_skinny.html" target="_blank">SOURCE</a>]</p></blockquote>

<p>Hey it ain&#8217;t my business, but they made it my business, so I&#8217;m just posting what I seen on the tweets!! If you&#8217;ve been living under a rock &#38; ya dunno&#8230;Swizz Beats &#38; Alicia Keys have been romancing for a minute, much to the chagrin of his ex wife<em> AND</em> then wife Mashonda Beatz (lmao I&#8217;m bullshittin&#8217;&#8230;lol).  Here&#8217;s your drama, you bastards!!<!--more--></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3358" title="mashonda_alicia" src="http://bellejenkins.wordpress.com/files/2009/09/mashonda_alicia.jpg" alt="mashonda_alicia" width="500" height="453" border="1" /></p>
<p>Before I get into the diatribe, what caused all this you asked?? A little bitty tweet from Alicia:</p>
<blockquote><p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3359" title="Picture 10" src="http://bellejenkins.wordpress.com/files/2009/09/picture-10.png" alt="Picture 10" width="510" height="98" border="1" /></p></blockquote>
<p>Here&#8217;s what Mashonda had to say about it!! Grab a seat, meal, &#38; a pillow cause it&#8217;s finna be a minute!!<!--more--></p>
<p><em>After having a great evening with my son and enjoying some fun twit chat, I decided to sign off and get some work done. However, a few hours later I was advised that I should check <a href="http://twitter.com/aliciakeys">@aliciakeys</a> twit page. I&#8217;ve never reached out to her on twitter before. I feel our issues are a lot more serious than a website conversation. Not to mention that I&#8217;ve reached out to her many times in the beginning of this whole thing, as any wife would do. Unfortunately, I never succeeded in getting a response. The 1st time I meet AK, my husband introduced us to each other at an event. ( I have no choice but to call him my husband, until he is not anymore) In the messages that I sent <img class="alignright size-full wp-image-3361" title="Mashonda" src="http://bellejenkins.wordpress.com/files/2009/09/mashonda.jpg" alt="Mashonda" width="250" height="480" border="1" />to her (AK), I made it very clear that on the contrary of what she might be hearing, I am still married to my husband, living with him and just had a child. Its been two years and I still have not received a response. What I do receive, is constant displays of selfishness and disconcern to me and my son.</em></p>
<p><em>I was a fan of AK&#8217;s last album, we were both signed to J Records and I always checked up on her projects. I sang her songs and admired her for creating Superwoman and Karma, I would never deny her, her talent. I believed in her until I found out she was possibly sleeping with my husband. The affair was denied by both, until it was finally admitted months later.</em></p>
<p><em>Already I can hear some of you saying &#8221; why are u blaming her, You cant make someone leave their wife, You cant break something thats broken&#8221;. Well, my marriage was not broken, as far as I knew we were celebrating our sons birth and getting ready to celebrate our 5 year wedding anniversary . Call it blind love, whatever. I call it being a devoted wife.. As far as me blaming her and not blaming him, thats false. Me and my husband have worked out our differences. We are in a good place as people and as parents. I accept his choices and I am comfortable enough with myself to move on. I am so very blessed in many ways.</em></p>
<p><em>My concern with AK is no longer the fact that she assisted in destroying a family but that she has <img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-3362" title="swizz-mashonda" src="http://bellejenkins.wordpress.com/files/2009/09/swizz-mashonda.jpg" alt="swizz-mashonda" width="300" height="423" border="1" />the audacity to make these selfish comments about love and wanting to be with someone, even after knowing their situation. How is this the same Superwoman that I sang out loud with in my truck? I ask myself sometimes.</em></p>
<p><em>If you are reading this Alicia, let me start by saying, you know what you did. You know the role you played and you know how you contributed to the ending of my marriage. You know that I asked you to step back and let me handle my family issues. Issues that you helped to create.<br />
Im not saying everything was perfect all the time but no relationship is perfect. We made a vow to God and I believe you should have respected that, as a woman. I know you owe me or my son nothing but I just wish you would&#8217;ve handled things more carefully. I&#8217;m not judging you, I put you and the whole situation in the hands of God, the Higher Power. Just know that as a woman, I expected so much more from you. I never had intentions on reaching out to you this way but after reading your twits tonight, and the constant disregard, you left me no choice. I feel that after 1 and a half years of you hiding this affair and acting like it doesnt exist, that now is the time to confront it, since you talk so openly about it now</em></p>
<p><em>This is not a publicity stunt, I dont have a record coming out. I just need to close this chapter in <img class="alignright size-full wp-image-3363" title="swizz-beatz-and-mashonda_1_1" src="http://bellejenkins.wordpress.com/files/2009/09/swizz-beatz-and-mashonda_1_1.jpg" alt="swizz-beatz-and-mashonda_1_1" width="400" height="321" border="1" />my life and that means confronting our issues. There is a small child involved. His dad loves him to death and he wants to spend more time with him but hes afraid because he knows we don&#8217;t have a relationship. This is my main concern. My son NEEDS his dad and I NEED to be comfortable with you. For him!</em></p>
<p><em>I know many will see my point and many will not be able to look into what&#8217;s real because they only want to see Alicia Keys the celebrity, not the human. This is not for the &#8220;people&#8221;, this is for you. Like I said I was left no choice but to reach out to you this way. By now, Im sure you want to find a balance in this as well.</em></p>
<p><em>I read your tweets tonight and I felt they were very insensitive. You have no idea how much pain I was caused because of this affair. Its baffling to me that you don&#8217;t understand what I might have <img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-3364" title="swizz" src="http://bellejenkins.wordpress.com/files/2009/09/swizz.jpg" alt="swizz" width="300" height="386" border="1" />gone through with this situation. I dont consider myself a victim anymore, Ive learned alot from this! I just ask you to try and be a bit more realistic and delicate to the situation, at least until my divorce is final.

<p><em>If its so, that you and my husband are meant to be together, then God bless you both and I hope you never have to deal with what I did. I would not wish it on my worst enemy.

<p>And you know what?? This time I refuse to hate. Whatever she&#8217;s been doing, it&#8217;s working b/c her voice has been getting progressively better over the years. I heard glimpses of it on &#8220;Rain on Me,&#8221; but &#8220;The Way That I Love You&#8221; almost had me feasting on crow.  Check out her rendition of &#8220;Over the Rainbow.&#8221; I&#8217;m not gonna overstate it, like she was taking folks to CHURCH, but the girl&#8217;s no longer a hack!!<!--more--></p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Let me go ahead and state the obvious!! How can a movie like <em>Mama I Want to Sing</em> be headlined by the likes of CiCi?! I enjoy her music (more so her DANCING), but that&#8217;s not SINGING. Was Jazmine Sullivan busy?! Oh &#38; to add another insult, the young singer blows Ciara out the water!! Watch!!</p>

<p>Damn Kim!! Is THAT how you do the dude that made your voice listenable?? I wonder what Kandi has to say about this&#8230;<!--more--></p>
<blockquote><p>Kim Zolciak&#8217;s a bit of a &#8220;Party&#8221; pooper, according to some.</p>
<p>&#8220;Tardy for the Party,&#8221; the first single from the <em>Real Housewives of Atlanta</em> star&#8217;s upcoming album, has been removed from iTunes because she supposedly hasn&#8217;t yet paid the tune&#8217;s producer for the time she spent in the studio.</p>
<p>&#8220;The song was number three on iTunes for the last four days, but since Don Vito owns the copyright to the song and he hasn&#8217;t been paid, he requested that the song be taken down off iTunes,&#8221; a source told E! News Monday.</p>
<p>Zolciak&#8217;s rep had no comment and Vito, when contacted, only had nice things to say about the allegedly delinquent diva.</p>
<p>&#8220;I think [Kim] is a good person and it was fun working in the studio with her,&#8221; he said. &#8220;We made a great record and I look forward to working with her on the album again.&#8221;</p>
<p>Next time, presumably, he&#8217;ll want a check in advance. [<a href="http://www.eonline.com/uberblog/b145407_kim_zolciaks_party_isnt_only_thing.html" target="_blank">SOURCE</a>]</p></blockquote>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>I was <em>VERY</em> pleased w/the Emmy Awards last night (even though I fell asleep through most of the ceremony&#8230;I had a long day!!) &#38; just wanted to shoutout my personal highlights:</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3300" title="Toni Collette - Emmy Awards 2009" src="http://bellejenkins.wordpress.com/files/2009/09/picture-9.png" border="1" alt="Toni Collette - Emmy Awards 2009" width="500" height="418" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series<br />
<span style="color:#800000;"><strong>Toni Collette</strong></span><br />
as Tara Gregson<br />
<strong>United States Of Tara</strong></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3301" title="Alec Baldwin - Emmy Awards 2009" src="http://bellejenkins.wordpress.com/files/2009/09/022339424-ex00.jpg" border="1" alt="Alec Baldwin - Emmy Awards 2009" width="500" height="356" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series<br />
<span style="color:#800000;"><strong>Alec Baldwin</strong></span><br />
as Jack Donaghy<br />
<strong>30 Rock</strong></p>
<p>My two favorite shows took the big ones!!</p>
<p>I was a little salty that Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series didn&#8217;t go to <span style="color:#800000;"><strong>Tracy Morgan</strong></span>, <span style="color:#800000;"><strong>Jack McBrayer</strong></span>, or <span style="color:#800000;"><strong>Kevin Dillon</strong></span>. But congratulations to <span style="color:#800000;"><strong>Jon Cryer</strong></span> who plays <strong><span style="color:#800000;">Alan Harper</span></strong> in Two and a Half Men (I don&#8217;t love this show, but I do love his role).</p>
<p>I would&#8217;ve loved for <span style="color:#800000;"><strong>Jane Krakowski</strong></span> to take home an Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series statue for playing <span style="color:#800000;"><strong>Jenna Maroney</strong></span>, but <em>Pushing Daisies</em> star <span style="color:#800000;"><strong>Kristin Chenoweth</strong></span> took it home for her role as Olive Snook. I&#8217;m pissed!! Is Pushing Daisies good?? I&#8217;ve never watched.</p>
<p>Of course <em>30 Rock</em> took it home for Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series; I&#8217;m just happy there&#8217;s so much good television right now that&#8217;s not necessarily reality tv (which I&#8217;m addicted to&#8230;don&#8217;t get it twisted).</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3302" title="Kim Kardashian - Emmy Awards 2009" src="http://bellejenkins.wordpress.com/files/2009/09/picture-6.png" border="1" alt="Kim Kardashian - Emmy Awards 2009" width="332" height="473" /></p>
<p>Now my two fashion highlights&#8230;<span style="color:#800000;"><strong>Kim Kardashian</strong></span> &#38; <span style="color:#800000;"><strong>Heidi Klum</strong></span>!! Now let&#8217;s not act like Kim Kardashian had no business there&#8212;she does have a TV show, so let the hate subside!!</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3303" title="Heidi Klum &#38; Seal" src="http://bellejenkins.wordpress.com/files/2009/09/picture-8.png" border="1" alt="Heidi Klum &#38; Seal" width="311" height="471" /></p>
<p>When was the last time Heidi Klum wasn&#8217;t pregnant?? LOL!! I swear the Seal Family is popping out chirren every 9 months. I think she looks fabulous, &#38; the two of them just ooze sappy happiness!!</p>

<p>Derek Blanks made it happen, &#38; while his photography (and Photoshop!!) was on point&#8230;gotta say I wasn&#8217;t really feeling the emotional weight of the Kandi alter ego photo. I thought it looked kinda camp, but respect to her for being strong enough to go through with it.  Am I the only one that didn&#8217;t love that picture?? And NeNe looked more stank than sexy. I thought Lisa Wu&#8217;s was cute, Kim looked awkward, &#38; Sheree&#8217;s was right on the money (har, har).<!--more--></p>
