Madonna On 106 & Park!


Madonna made her very first appearance on 106 & Park yesterday. She looked absolutely fabulous! She spoke about being a mother, her favorite Hip-Hop artists, the new album "Hard Candy", & working with Justin Timberlake & Kanye West. It was exciting to see her on the show, I've never seen that many white people in the audience! That's the power of Madonna.


Beyonce Has $25 Million Prenup!


According to the National Enquirer, Beyonce will be even richer if her marriage doesn't make it to "till death us do part." The longer she stays married to Jay-Z, who's reportedly worth around $300 million, the more she gets. A source told the mag, "The prenup calls for Jay-Z to pay Beyonce $10 million if the marriage ends after 2 years, & 1 million a year for each year she remains in the marriage, up to 15years." Sources are also claiming she'll be given "access to their private jet & a $1million 1959 Rolls Royce convertible..." Beyonce will also receive $5 million per child, to help compensate for the money she'll miss out on, for being a mommy. Mothers everywhere are looking at their baby daddy's like DAMN!

New Music! Kelly Rowland - Ms. Kelly Deluxe


Overall, "Ms. Kelly Deluxe" is o.k. It's not good, It's not bad, just o.k. "Work (Freemasons Radio Edit)" is a pretty decent remix, but where is "Come Back" (the original version)? The video was just put out all of 5 minutes ago. Who the hell put this together? They're certainly not doing Kelly Rowland any favors.

I don't know why they even bothered. No one is ever going to put as much time & energy into Kelly, like they do for Beyonce. Kelly, wake up & smell the coffee. You will always be treated like you're 2nd best. You'll be given the 2nd best songwriters, 2nd best producers, & 2nd best video treatments. Why? Cuz for whatever reason, you insist on keeping Mathew Knowles on board as your manager. His job is to make sure Beyonce always comes in at #1, now you need to find someone that will be that committed to you.

Kanye's In a Pissy Mood Again!


Entertainment Weekly gave Kanye's "Glow In the Dark" tour a B+. The review went on to state great things about Kanye, but was less kind to his opening acts. The reviewer, Chris Willman, wrote, "[Lupe Fiasco]...suffered from rapping to studio tracks, (& 'Kick, Push' deserves more than a reduced medley slot). Pharrell Williams is no great singer..." He was even more scathing towards Rihanna. "...'Umbrella,' felt off, with the rain-gear-wielding backup dancers working harder to sell the smash than she did. Ri-Ri needs to ramp up the charisma..."

Those are fighting words, & you know Kanye was coming back with something. He wrote on his blog, "Yo, anybody that's not a fan; don't come to my show. For what?! To try to throw yall to cents in? Yall rated my album shitty and now yall come to the show and give it a B+. What's a B+ mean? I'm an extremist. It's either pass or fail! A+ or F-! You know what, fuck you and the whole fucking staff!!! I know I shouldn't dignify this with a comment, but the reviewer threw a jab at all the artists. I just wanna know when was the last time you enjoyed yourself. If you can't have fun and loose yourself at this tour it's a good chance you're a very miserable person. I actually feel sorry for you guys. Your job forces you to not have fun anymore. Grab a drink, holla at some nice girls, and party bitch!!! You don't know shit about passion and art. You'll never gain credibility at this rate. You're fucking trash! I make art. You can't rate this. I'm a real person. I'm not a pop star. I don't care about anything but making great art. Never come 2 one of my shows ever again, you're not invited and if you see me... BOW!!! This is not pop, it's pop art! Chris Willman, kill yourself!"

What did they expect...Everyone knows Kanye doesn't play well with others, unless they're kissing his ass.

Usher Won't Pimp Out His Baby!


Although rumors ran wild that Tameka Foster was trying to sell the baby pics, Usher has put his foot down! He posed for free, on the cover of Essence Magazine, for the Father's Day edition. Usher told Page Six, "In no way would I ever pimp out my child for money. I am livid that people talk about my child. What makes you a man more than being a father to your child? I recognize I gave anonymity away when I became an artist, but to have people try to paint a horrible picture of what's so beautiful - it's obvious someone is trying to stop something so beautiful." Good for Usher! Either he really means that, or Tameka couldn't get her asking price for those pics.
