HHGS Exclusive: John Depp of Skull Gang Shot!!

Friend to the site and my brother Jonathan Ruiz, better known to the world as John Depp of Juelz Santana's group "Skull Gang" was shot and wounded in Southside Jamaica Queens last night over on Farmers Boulevard at what should have been a peaceful #bikelife gathering amongst different biking crews.


For some reason the biking crews had a disagreement and unfortunately, shots rang out into the crowd and John Depp caught a bullet to his right leg (as photo'd above). John Depp underwent 3 hours of surgery to have his leg mended and had this to say about the situation.........when you click on that "Read More" button below:

“I’m just greatful to be alive” states John Depp. Over six young adults were randomly shot as a result of the disagreement between the bike crews. And for those of you who are not aware, John Depp is also the first cousin to G-Unit's own, Lloyd Banks. You can check out what Banks had to say about the incident below:

“I’m just happy to know that Depp is doing well considering the circumstances.”

Even Juelz made a statement below:

“I’m glad to know that Depp’s surgery was a success.”

Everything will be fine with John Depp. He'll be back on the road and working in no time. And just as an added update, although John was scheduled to perform and open up for Lloyd Banks in Australia on September 12, 2012, due to the recent turn of events, he will not be able to make it. Keep your head up!

Gossip Pics: Before & After of K. Michelle Oral Surgery

K. Michelle is one of my favorite castmembers on Vh1's "Love & Hip Hop Atlanta", and the thing that I like about her the most is her ability to be open and honest without regard to how others might feel about her situation. She also has a talent for comedy that comes naturally, so it's only right that if she can dish it she can damn sure take it.

So it came as no surprise that on Monday night after part 1 of "Love & HIp Hop Atlanta's" reunion show aired that K. Michelle tweeted out a photo of herself with the caption "I love these new teeth!" The comment was made on the social networking site Instagram after Karlie Redd had made a comment about how K. Michelle looked before her new teeth on part 1 of "Love & Hip Hop Atlanta's" reunion show.

K. Michelle has admitted on several occasions that she has had oral surgery. She never denied that fact one bit, but for some reason Karlie Redd needed to bring it up during the reunion show. So to once again admit to the masses that she has new teeth, K. Michelle tweeted out the following when you click on that "Read More" button below:

I'm all for improving what we've got! There's no judgements over here! What are your thoughts? I'll hold!

Jennifer Lopez’s 3D Movie & The Top 5 Concert Flicks: Extended Cut

J.Lo Is Going To "Dance" In 3D

Welcome back to Extended Cut - our Soundbytes segment where we plunge into the depths of the biggest pop story of the week. Today, our focus is on one Ms. Jennifer Lopez. Now that the pesky American Idol gig is no longer taking up her schedule, how is J.Lo planning to rake in the dough (aside from shilling for Fiat and her Kohl’s clothing line)? The sultry siren recently unveiled plans to release a 3D concert movie, Dance Again. Hmm… a concert film, in three dimensions, where have we heard that idea before?

Should Jenny expect a blockbuster? What does it take to have a smash concert doc? Is the world prepared to see J.Lo’s glorious behind in 3D? Watch as we tackle some of these questions - and look back at pop music's top earning concert films.

Lupe Fiasco’s ‘Food & Liquor II: The Great American Rap Album Pt. 1′ Cover Is Quite Dark

Following a releases of “Around My Way (Freedom Ain't Free)”, “Lamborghini Angels” and “Bitch Bad”, questionable Chicago MC Lupe Fiasco has offered in the cover art for Food &lifier Liquor II: The Truly Amazing American Rap Album Pt. 1 (going to be out September 25). Really, “cover art” may be a little of the misstatement. Let’s opt for cover color option?

Fiasco’s 4th LP works as a follow up to 2006′s Food &lifier Liquor, and that he done the edgy set with your producers as Soundtrakk and Symbolyc One. Obviously, he’s not the very first artist to create this type of minimal black album sans hue - in 1991, Metallica launched themselves-entitled LP (also called The Black Album), which in fact had a virtually-all-black cover, save for any barely visible cobra within the lower right corner and also the band’s logo design within the upper left corner. (After which there's, clearly, The Beatles‘ Whitened Album).

Sean Kingston Attempts To Seduce With “Money”

Before Sean Kingston drops his new album Back 2 Existence, he’s shedding tunes-switched-teaser games in the own “Feed the Roads Thursdays” series. The 2nd song, “Money,” is all about - well, clearly.

To summarize the collaboration with Dom Kennedy, the 2 emcees trade off verses regarding their commercial success - radio singles, among other career highlights - among perplexing bouts of bemoaning the possible lack of attention: “Damn girl, can’t the thing is? I’m engaging in those funds at this time.” The chorus is mind-dazzling along with a little mind-mind-numbing, if Kingston is constantly on the drop singles only at that rate, there won’t be any left for individuals to really purchase. Hear how “Money” compares following the jump.

So how exactly does “Money” measure? Tell us within the comments below, or on Twitter and facebook.

Trey Songz Hangs With Female Football Players In “Hail Mary” Video

Trey Songz's Sexy Super Bowl

Trey Songz‘ new album Chapter V dropped today (August 21), and besides some promotional appearances on the Today show and Power 105′s The Breakfast Club, Trey also appears in the football-themed video for his single, “Hail Mary”.

The clip features two teams of women competing against one another in a football game, with Trey and VMA host Kevin Hart acting as opposing coaches. (Young Jeezy and Lil Wayne also make cameos.) If that sounds progressive at all, it’s not - the women are playing in booty shorts with their bras exposed, the implication being that women should only play sports if they’re fetishized and sexualized for male attention. Pretty disheartening after watching so many amazing female athletes take part in the Olympics.

That said, you could argue that this is just a hip-hop video, and hot ladies wearing revealing outfits is the norm. (Drake pretty much did the same thing but with basketball in his “Best I Ever Had” video.) We’ll leave it up to you to decide whether “Hail Mary” is way sexy, or way misogynistic.

Lanvin Reveals Fall Campaign Video

Last year, Lanvin stumbled upon viral success with its fall 2011 campaign video featuring models Karen Elson and Raquel Zimmermann dancing to Pitbull’s “I Know You Want Me.” Designer Alber Elbaz even joined in.

With the bar set high, we were eagerly anticipating what kind of video magic the Lanvin team would dream up to accompany their groundbreaking fall campaign featuring regular folks, ranging in age from 18 to 82.

There’s no dancing this time, but the video is just as clever. Since none of Lanvin’s fall faces are famous models or actors, the video lets us get to know them. We hear their voices as we watch them pose for the campaign in stop motion. One likes frozen blueberries and another collects salt and pepper shakers. The youngest model in a red peplum dress goes on about some “douchey gross” band she hates.

But it’s former Apollo Theater dancer Jacquie "Tajah" Murdock who steals the show (as we knew she would) telling Alber and his crew that she always wanted to come to Paris when she was 18 so you could flip those numbers since she was 81 when she came to Paris to shoot the campaign (she’s now 82). “Paris is coming to you,” you can hear Alber exclaim, followed by a big smooch.

Take a look.

Did Steven Meisel Copy Scary Video Game The Path For This W Spread?

When Lana Del Rey told her distant boyfriend to “go play a video gaaaame,” it seems like the fashion world listened. First there was Prada’s virtual reality-esque fall ad campaign, then came Conde Nast’s trist with personal gaming, and now, it seems photographer Steven Meisel has gotten more than a little inspiration from a computer game called The Path.

Blog Is This Fun Yet? noticed some extreme similarities between Meisel’s “Spellbound” shoot in the September issue of W and The Path‘s character selection screen. We’ll admit–we aren’t gaming fanatics (unless you’re counting virtual pets–I still love my Tamagotchi), but it’s impossible to deny that Meisel, who also shot the Prada ads, was influenced by this game in particular, which is apparently based on Little Red Riding Hood. And it’s not too hard to see why: The characters in that game definitely have a goth-chic thing happening. That girl in the window? Totally rocking that Mary Poppins hat.

Are you into this trend of video games in fashion? Which of Steven Meisel’s creepy models would you choose to walk down The Path to Grandmother’s house? And most importantly, when is someone going to do an editorial inspired by Duck Hunt??

How to: a glossy natural beauty look

_{Posted in Fashion / Fashion blog / Make-up / Make-up & beauty}

Strong and beautiful are words that encapsulate Alberta Ferretti’s fall / winter 2012 collection which was shown during Milan fashion week. We are used to seeing romance and glamour in her collections but we fawned over her new collection which was darker. It was an ode to the modern woman who despite the problems in the world today, would still walk with her held high – and of course her high heels.

This darker, tougher yet still graceful vibe was greatly supported by the makeup worn by the models. It was all about enhancing the features giving a strict and clean look that went well with the collection. This look was all about being natural, foregoing the colors and opting to go for a more flawless glossy look. Perfect not just for the runways, it is a daytime look that will surely make you feel empowered and all you have to do is follow these easy steps.
