Your Friendly Neighbourhood Gangster 50 Cent a.k.a Curtis Jackson may increasing his name by a few pennies!
According to media sources 50 was approached by Taco Bell to change his name for charity…and on wednesday, Taco Bell requested he change his name to 79, 89, or 99 Cent for a day to promote their “Why Pay More” value menu.
“As part of the deal was asked stop by any Taco Bell restaurant of his choosing and his order at the drive-thru using his new moniker. In return, the chain would donate $10,000 to a charity of his choice.
“We know that you adopted the name 50 Cent years ago as a metaphor for change. We at Taco Bell are also huge advocates for change… We encourage you to ‘Think Outside the Bun’ and hope you accept our offer.” Source MWZA

Rapper 50 Cent asked a judge to evict his 10 year old son Marquise Jackson and his ex-girlfriend Shaniqua Tompkins from his New York Residence!
50 cent a.k.a Curtis Jackson or Cur-tis claims that his ex is basically well free loading….
Thompson has appointed a lawyer……the battle continues!
Isn’t Marquise supposed to be 50 cent’s inspiration or something…I could have sworn he was the reference is the film “Get Rich or Die Trying”

Hope you’re having a great weekend? Well I am as always… According to TMZ 50 Cent’s video “”Follow My Lead” featuring Robin Thicke was leaked onto youtube.
The video was originally supposed to be released in October and 50 cents album “Curtis” hits the shelves on September 11! 50 Cent is said to be very pissed and according to Miss Info he suspects it was an employee of Interscope records that leaked the video.
50 reportedly as told Interscope Execs that he refuses to do a promo for his album! Sources say he ripped a 70 inch plasma television from the wall and threw his cellphone through a window of an executive’s office… However these details have not been confirmed!
Wow…Well yeah I’d be pissed if my video got leaked but then again 50 you should join the Youtube train, its a great way to promote your album and videos. If you bring out statistics nowadays people will rather watch music videos and the likes on Youtube than on T.V.
Cheer up Curtis…by the way I loved the Video!

Jlo was spotted by MediaTakeout grabbing coffee its nice to see her again! Perhaps shes upset at the El Cantawatever tanking but as long as Jlo is still around I’m happy!

Also on MediaTakeout Eva Longoria was spotted “Booty Less” The recently married Desperate Housewife seemed to have lost her backside somewhere along the way but we do hope she finds it soon!

Its been a while since we’ve spotted NAS in a candid shot but thanks to MediatakeOut we get to see him again! How’s Married Life Nas?
Is the Beef Over? Well the reason why I’m asking these questions is Mediatakeout has an exclusive story on The Game Re-Uniting on 50 cent’s upcoming album “Curtis” heres a direct quote:
The hip hop world is in for a huge shock. MediaTakeOut.com has learned that the Game has agreed to record a track for 50 Cent’s new album Curtis.
We spoke exclusively with a key source in The Game’s camp who explained how the two superstars came together. The source told MediaTakeOut.com, “[Game] contacted [50 Cent's management] and asked if he could record a track. At first they refused, but in the last few weeks, they’ve changed their minds.” The insider continued, “[The Game] is set to go into the studio this week … he’s pretty excited about it.”
And that’s not all. According to our source, The Game may be on the verge of re-joining with G-Unit. The insider explained to MediaTakeOut.com, “Both [50 Cent] and [Game] are businessmen. It would be great for both of them if Game were to return to The G-Unit … No deal is signed yet, but they’re talking about it - and both sides are interested in making it work.”
Outside of 50 Cent, The Game has been the most successful member of G-Unit. His debut album sold nearly 6 million copies. That’s more than Tony Yayo’s (700,000 copies), Young Buck’s (2 million copies) and Lloyd Banks’ (2.5 million copies) debut albums combined.

This is the brand new Video from Ciara ft 50 Cent, I really love the hook and the song in general. Many people are debating whether Ci Ci is dating 50 and this video certainly sends some people in the direction that they probably are dating. Some are enraged that Ci Ci is seen topless and some are actually pissed that Ci Ci has ‘Changed’ Saying she is no more the innocent girl she was at the start of her career!
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RUvHcb3V0sk]
I on the other hand commend Ci Ci her new look is fabulous and her video is hot! I see it as an upgrade from Bow Wow to 50 and I’m actually happy for her (If she’s actually dating him)
Enjoy and Happy 4th of July

Last Night at 8pm/7pm central the 7th Annual BET Awards took place. The Event which is a celebration of Black Music, Movies and Entertainment.
The Event was hosted by The ‘queen of comedy’ Monique.
Now… I think this was the best BET Award Show, Monique really had us awake and kept us laughing throughout the show unlike the previous hosts. The Opening act was one of the best performances with Monique doing a Beyonce Dance Parody!
The Best Performance of the night goes to..DIDDY his collaboration with Keyshia Cole, The Orchestra…and to top it all Lil Kim making an appearance!! How i wished diddy walked away with an award the guy is really a performer!

Next on my list…..Jennifer Hudson and Jennifer Holiday i mean woah!! Their song gave me goosebumps! great performance and kudos to JHud on the award. Whats with the dude following her on stage i mean wtf? boyfriend? manager? who knows!

Followed by TI - Hes the bomb…his song still chimes in my head! He has so much energy its overwhelming!

50 Cent… He made a statement and quite frankly i got the picture…
Ciara’s was great…love her dancing!
Beyonce’s performance was not all that, I think she should have performed Upgrade You i guess she didnt want us to think the only way she can perform is with jay-z!
The Tribute to Gerald Levert was touching, Chaka Khan’s still got the juice in her as well as Gladys Knight also Patti LaBelle looked stunning.
Eryka Badu did a great job during the Diana Ross Dedication and it was great to see Diana’s kids come out to support her!
Kelly Swung to much on her steps and eve couldnt rescue her from her breathless song!
Overall Monique did a good job she was the best host for me!
Long Live the BET Awards… Long Live Black Music
