Singer Mashonda confronts Alicia Keys regarding being a homewrecker


I made a post previously regarding Alicia Keys dating married Producer Swizz Beatz. Well it was just a rumor then, now it is all out! They are a couple and are open with it. Swizz Beatz is still married, but has left his wife, singer Mashonda, and is now in a real relationship with Alicia Keys.

Mashonda recently tweeted a whole damn letter to Alicia via twitter and here's a few paragraphs from that long letter:

"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.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’ve handled things more carefully. I’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."


"This is not a publicity stunt, I dont have a record coming out. I just need to close this chapter in 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’t have a relationship. This is my main concern. My son NEEDS his dad and I NEED to be comfortable with you. For him!"


"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’t understand what I might have 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. I felt me attending the party would have been a starting point for us, since you shook my hand after I offered it, but I suppose I was wrong."

Model Spotlight: ZeEnna








I use to do a model spotlight on the blog when I first started, but my content changed up a little bit. Well I have made a new buddy and she is a model by the name of ZeEnna. The modeling industry can be a tough one to break into to. Especially if you don't fit the norm. Well ZeEnna breaks the mold, and I feel like she needs more exposure. Since I have the platform to put her name out there why not?
If you are interested in booking Z for a show click on her name above or feel free to contact her @ zeennaj@hotmail.com. ZeEnna is available for Select TF projects with Professional and established photographers.

Baddest Bi**h of the Airport: Rihanna











I always see pics of many celebs in the airport and they look busted and disgusted. Some will wear sweats with no makeup on looking sloppy, but others actually care and keep it decent and simple. My favorite airport celeb is Rihanna. I loveeee her style and some have coined her as the current day Grace Jones. You tell me what you think. Does Rihanna satisfy your airport attire taste? I know she just DOES it for me lol

Are you "Ready" for Trey Songz?








Ladies, Ladies, Ladies! I know you all will be happy that I am making this post. How many of you are feeling Trey Songz aka Trigga aka @Songzyuuup? I know I am. I've been following him from the beginning until now, and I can surely say that he has matured and his Grown and Sexy is off the meters. His latest c.d. Ready is burning up the charts and I can't stop listening to it. Visit his website: See Further Than I am Follow him on Twitter: @Songzyuuup

Jupiter Love from Ready c.d.




Neighbors know my name: Favorite cut off of the album

I'm starting to warm up to Letoya Luckett

Sooo I have slept on Letoya Luckett for a while. I was kind of not liking her music before. I was like she is made for the background. I just didn't feel like she came hard enough with her music. Buttttt I think she has come around. I am feeling the direction that her music is going in. Letoya has definitely emerged as a stand out artist. I wish her the best and I can't wait to hear more from her. OH yeah I will be buying her latest c.d. Lady Love. P.S. She is reppin Texas to the fullest!

She Ain't Got





Regret: Live for Tom Joyner Morning Show.... Love this song


Amerie is bringing a lil heat!

Shouts to WSHH and BET
I'm really feeling this new Amerie joint "Heard Em' All". I can't wait for them to play this banger in the club... Tani loves to cut a rug. lol And it's not all about the lyrics but the beat hits hard. I've always liked Amerie since Why don't we fall in love, but she's been slacking lately. Welcome back Amerie, let's see what you got mama!

KRS 1 blames Def Jam for ruining Hip Hop?

OMG I respect KRS 1 because he is one of the best MC's there has ever been, but I think he's a little off with his "spewing of the mouth". So he thanked Def Jam for being the start of Hip Hop and then he disses them for destroying Hip Hop???? SMH I don't know what to say really. Do you?




Thanks to World Star Hip Hop for posting!!!!

Heineken Red Star Soul Dallas

















OMG this has got to be one of my favorite events of the year so far..... Heineken's Red Star Soul Tour Dallas starring DJ D-Nice, Estelle, and Big Boi hosted by Kevin Hart. Free Heinekens all night, funny ass host, and great music. The Ghostbar was a very grown and sexy venue. The green decor along with free Heinekens really set the scene. Here's a few pics of the happenings at the event. I really want to thank Heineken for putting on another great event. Last year was off the chain as well.

Funny pic of Kanye


I was browsing my new Favorite site Miss Jia and saw this pic that I had to post. Kanye is in the business of snatching mics huh? Lmaooooo Thanks Jia for posting this.

Kanye West... still acting a fool




Soooo the asshole of 2009 awards goes out to Kanye "dumbass" West. I was absolutely embarrassed for Beyonce and Taylor Swift last night on the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards. Taylor Swift won the award for best Female Video and while accepting her first award ever Kanye jumps his tail up there and snatches the mic from her. He goes on blabbing how Beyonce has the best video out there. Ok Kanye, we know that, but let Taylor get her props. Taylor has one of the best selling c.d.s of the year and has won numerous awards elsewhere.
When the camera turned on Beyonce she was in shock. Beyonce shook her head in amazement and I can only imagine what was going on inside her head. Mrs. Carter did win Video of the Year and she showed us how humble and gracious she is. Beyonce invited Taylor out to finish her acceptance speech. I really do admire Bey for doing that.
Some celebs expressed their pov's on their Twitter pages. My favs were Pink and Katy Perry.
All I can say is Kanye has really showed his ass and I am happy that he got put out for the rest of the show. Oh yeah he blamed it on the alcohol.... see the pic above.
