Mary J. Blige Addresses Her Burger King Ad



Earlier this week, I posted a Burger King commercial to the site that had Mary J. Blige singing her heart out for their new chicken snack wrap. And while I thought the commercial was hilarious, many folks thought the commercial was coonery at its finest. If you don't remember that Burger King post then go (here).

After all of the backlash that both Burger King and Mary J. Blige received about the commercial, Burger King decided to pull the commercial down. Burger King also released an apology to Mary J. for releasing the commercial. You can check out that statement below:

"We would like to apologize to Mary J. and all of her fans for airing an ad that was not final."

Well now, Mary J. Blige has spoken out about her part in the commercial with TMZ.com and you can check out what she had to say when you click on that "Read More" button below:




"I understand my fans being upset by what they saw. But, if you're a Mary fan, you have to know I would never allow an unfinished spot like the one you saw go out."

"I agreed to be a part of a fun and creative campaign that was supposed to feature a dream sequence. Unfortunately, that's not what was happening in that clip.
"


Thank you Jesus that was not how the commercial was supposed to look! What were your thoughts on the commercial? I'm listening!

Gossip Positivity: Fabolous & Emily B At The 3rd Annual Urban Promise Fundraiser



I'm always reporting on gossip or the latest rumors, but those are not the only things I report on. I do have a heart, I am human and believe it or not, I care about people's feelings and how people view me. So with that said, Fabolous and his other half, Emily B, recently took part in the 3rd annual "Urban Promise" fundraiser presented by "A Fabolous Way" foundation.

The foundation is based in New York City and of course was started by Brooklyn's own, Fabolous. Funds were raised to help send 45 inner city youths from Camden, New Jersey on a week long educational spring break trip to Maryland where they will go camping, zip lining, canoeing, rock climbing and on tours of our nations capital, Washington DC, meeting with local senators and congressmen as well. So check out some behind the scenes moments from the event when you click on that "Read More" button below:

Kenya Bell Addresses Her Basketball Wives Castmembers, Talks Plastic Surgery Rumors & Adoring Jennifer Williams!!



Kenya Bell is one of the weirdest characters on "Basketball Wives" this season. From putting out the craziest videos on YouTube, to thinking she can dance, to allowing the other girls to clown her and not say a thing about it, to Evelyn Lozada chucking a bottle of wine at her head, nothing seemed to faze this lady we call Kenya Bell. And even when she was "allegedly" going to kick Kesha Nichols ass, she didn't break a sweat or seem to be bothered by the task.

So let's find out the reason why Kenya Bell is the way she is, as well as addressing those plastic surgery rumors her soon to be ex-husband put out there about her courtesy of "Juicy" magazine when you click on that "Read More" button below:




Juicy: What was going through your mind when EVELYN threw that bottle at you during dinner?
KB: I’ve been professionally trained to fight thanks to my Dad. I have no fear of any of them and all of their bullying, negativity, and pure haterism. It’s sad that as women, they aren’t supporting my efforts to be independent as a woman and a mother, especially after I spent years helping my husband make it to the NBA and he’s chosen to ruin his life. [The cast] can talk all they want, as long as neither of them put their hands on me, they have nothing to fear.


Juicy: Speaking of your husband, what was the plastic surgery claims about?
KB: He’s decided to try and ruin my life by telling lies to the media about plastic surgery, etc. in attempt to ruin any possibility of me having a career. It seems that the women of basketball wives would be on my side seeing what I’m going through.


Juicy: What made you invite Keisha to your video screening after she threw you under the bus?
KB: Actually that’s the result of editing. My video screening happened BEFORE the bottle throwing incident. I haven’t seen Keisha since she started the fight between Evelyn and I.


Juicy: You seemed to be taking the girls’ criticism very lightly at the screening…
KB: I’m a very cultured individual. I’ve worked in corporate America and shook hands with the President. I know the difference between what’s good and what isn’t, so when someone tells me something is horrible and I know it’s not, it’s laughable to me.


Juicy: The girls seem to think you’re jacking they’re style. What’s your response?
KB: In response to me “jacking” their style……I’ve been me since birth, and although I’m younger than most of them (oh wait I forgot, I’m 40 according to them!), ask those who know me the best, I haven’t changed.


Juicy: To set the record straight, when it comes to JEN do you adore her the way the girls claim?
KB: Jen has been the only person in the group that has been consistently nice to me and I appreciate that. Because of that, I consider her someone that I can become friends with. It’s soooo sad that they have a “mob” mentality and because Jen refuses to “join the crowd” and hate me like they have decided to do before they even got to know me, all of a sudden they say I idolize her. It’s their way of trying to make Jen not like me. I’m so proud of Jen for being an individual.


Juicy: What are your current thoughts on TAMI?
KB: I’m very surprised to see the footage of Tami talking bad about me behind my back. I still feel that she has a good heart, that’s why she stepped in between Evelyn and I. Because of the supposed “stabbing” that my husband accused me of, I really didn’t want to have to hurt Evelyn on national television, so I appreciated that. But as a fellow mother of two, it’s very disappointing that she was so mean and hurtful knowing she went through the same things I’m going through on the show.

So what are your thoughts on Kenya Bell's interview? Do you think the other ladies will respond? Will she still be labeled as delusional or what? I'm listening!

Gabrielle Union Explains Why She Doesn't Sit Courtside Anymore



Gabrielle Union recently visited the Conan O'Brien show to promote the new movie she stars in titled "Think Like A Man" which is already out in theatres, but the interview took an interesting turn when Conan asked Gabrielle a question about sitting courtside at basketball games.

Gabrielle Union confessed to Conan that she doesn't actually sit courtside anymore due to her outbursts and disrespectful behavior and admitted that she had to be pushed back a few rows because of it. But if you don't take my word for it, check out Gabrielle Union explain her situation for yourselves when you click on that "Read More" button below:

Producers of "Basketball Wives" Are Pissed With Jennifer



The good folks over at TMZ.com have recently discovered that Shaunie O'neal the producers of "Basketball Wives" are pissed off with Jennifer Williams. In fact, the producers are saying that Jennifer Williams has been on thin ice for a minute, but since the lawsuit came into play, Jennifer Williams ice is breaking fast!!

You can check out the full story for yourselves (courtesy of TMZ.com) when you click on that "Read More" button below:


Sources close to production tell TMZ ... Williams was already on thin ice with the show -- even before her slaptastic showdown with Nia Crooks -- but now that she has filed a lawsuit ... that ice is breaking FAST.

We're told producers think the suit is BS ... claiming Jennifer never had a problem with fighting before and insist this is a desperate publicity stunt to keep her storyline interesting -- securing her a place in season 5.

But a source tells us the stunt is not working, adding, "Filing broad lawsuits when you are as much to blame for the drama, is not the way to get your contract extended.
"


Does this mean that Jennifer Williams might not be returning for season 5 of "Basketball Wives"? I guess only time will tell, but I'm curious to hear your thoughts on this new development. I'm all ears!
