LARRY KING ANNOUNCES THE END OF HIS CNN SHOW “LARRY KING LIVE”!!!
Every great run must come to an end, and T.V. show host Larry King is ready to hang up the suspenders and spend more time with his family. Last night on Larry King Live, the nightly interviewer announced his retirement from the 25 year long CNN talk show series. The 76-year-old television personality said:
“Now, decades later, I talked to the guys here at CNN and I told them I would like to end Larry King Live, the nightly show, this fall and CNN has graciously accepted, giving me more time for my wife and I to get to the kids’ little league games.
“I’m incredibly proud that we recently made the ‘Guinness Book of World Records’ for having the longest-running show with the same host in the same time slot. With this chapter closing I’m looking forward to the future and what my next chapter will bring, but for now it’s time to hang up my nightly suspenders.”
T.I. TALKS PRISON, “KING UNCAGED” & “TAKERS” ON CHELSEA LATELY!!!
Rapper T.I. recently had a heart-to-heart with Chelsea Handler on E!’s “Chelsea Lately” Monday night (Jun 28) and promoted his new album King Uncaged, due for release in August, and his new film “Takers,” which hits theaters in August as well.
As usual, Ms. Handler kept folks laughing as she questioned Tip about their “relationship” (LMAO!), his recent bid in prison and whether or not he enjoyed the “care package” she sent him to “keep him busy” in jail, among other things.
But when T.I. tried to promote his latest projects, Handler interrupted him:
“Excuse me, I’m just bored because we’re not talking about us.”
FIRST OFFICIAL “HARRY POTTER & THE DEATHLY HALLOWS” TRAILER PREMIERES!!!
It looks like the “Harry Potter” fever is finally about to begin.
The first official trailer for the final installment in the franchise has premiered. While other clips have been released, this trailer is set to be played in front of “The Twilight Saga: Eclipse”, which hits theaters Wednesday (Jun 30), and has footage from both part 1 and part 2 of “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows”.
We’re not gonna front, this trailer looks pretty sick. It just sucks we’re gonna have to wait a year to see the final battle scene. Damn you two part saga!
KIM KARDASHIAN WILL BE “WAXED” AT MADAME TUSSAUDS IN NEW YORK CITY!!!!
It truly amazes me how Kim Kardashian is so famous. The girl who made her rise to fame after a sex tape was released is now being waxed at Madame Tussauds in New York City. She made the announcement via her website:
I’ve been keeping you guys in the dark about my big announcement and teasing you with my #karwax tweets… but I can finally reveal that I am getting my own wax figure at Madame Tussauds in NYC!!!! This is one of the greatest honors ever and I am so thrilled and excited. Now I will never have to leave NYC… I’ve officially gone bi-coastal! LOL
DIDDY’S MESSAGE TO 50 CENT: “YOU A SUCKER, YOU’RE ASHY & YOUR BREATH STINKS! YOU HATIN A** CRAB!”!!!
Many of you probably saw Diddy address his haters during the after party of the 2010 BET Awards the other night. During the party, Diddy had a little message to a special someone who he didn’t name in particular:
“Check this out. I love my people. Let’s stop the hate, man. Congratulate. Hate is for suckers. If you hating, you a sucker, and you’re ashy and your breath stinks. And you know who I’m talking to, you hatin’ a** crab!”

LAURYN HILL FINALLY GETTING EXCITED ABOUT MUSIC AGAIN & READY TO MAKE A COMEBACK!!!!
It has been close to 15 years since Lauryn Hill was excited about doing music, but that displeasure with the industry is starting to change. The singer recently spoke with NPR and had this to say:
“There were things about myself, personal-growth things, that I had to go through in order to feel like it was worth it,” Hill told NPR News. “In fact, as musicians and artists, it’s important we have an environment — and I guess when I say environment, I really mean the [music] industry that really nurtures these gifts. Oftentimes, the machine can overlook the need to take care of the people who produce the sounds that have a lot to do with the health and well-being of society, or at least some aspect of society. And it’s important that people be given the time that they need to go through, to grow, so that the consciousness level of the general public is properly affected. Oftentimes, I think people are forced to make decisions prematurely.”
She went on to say that people really don’t know her singing ability:
“I’m trying to open up my range and really sing more,” she said. “With the Fugees initially, and even with Miseducation, it was very hip-hop — always a singing over beats. I don’t think people have really heard me sing out. So, if I do record again, perhaps it will have an expanded context, where people can hear a bit more.”
She finished the interview by saying this:
“I think it’s just time,” said Hill. “I’m starting to get excited again.”

CHRIS BROWN DUE TO PERFORM MICHAEL JACKSON TRIBUTE AT THE 2010 BET AWARDS!!!
He was denied the chance to pay tribute last year, but this year, word on the sidewalk is that R&B singer Chris Brown is scheduled to pay homage to Michael Jackson during a tribute to the King of Pop at the 2010 BET Awards. Explicit details are being kept a secret at the moment but Gyant over at BET.com has a little info about the “surprise” performance:
Word on the street, from a VERY reliable source, is that powers that be have reached out to current embattled Pop star Chris Brown to bless the stage and pay homage to his musical idol in conjunction with the anniversary of his passing.
Details surrounding the super secretive surprise are being guarded, so I don’t have much on what exactly Chris will perform, but let’s be honest this opportunity could save both my new networks home in the eyes of the public, and Chris who is currently in the fight of his life every since that debacle almost a year and a half ago.
FANTASIA – “BITTERSWEET”!!!
R&B singer Fantasia has released the official music video to her single “Bittersweet” taken off her upcoming third studio album Back to Me. So far the song has peaked at #16 on R&B charts and has yet to crack the Top 100. Check out Fantasia’s new video, which stars NFL football player Devin Thomas as her love interest, above:
DID TYLER PERRY FIRE HIS STAFF THIS WEEK AFTER THE BOONDOCKS’ EPISODE MAKING FUN OF HIM AIRED?!!!
This is a hot mess!
Rumor has it that filmmaker/playwright Tyler Perry may have fired his entire staff over a recent episode of Aaron McGruder’s wildly popular cartoon series “The Boondocks”. In an episode that aired Sunday night (Jun 20), Perry is depicted as being homosexual and using his staff and other actors to engage in sexual activities, among other things. And though it may have given us and everyone who watched it more than a few chuckles, we hear that Mr. TP himself wasn’t too pleased and he believes that someone exposed some of his “inside secrets” to McGruder and his writers.
Word on the streets is the recent ’Boondocks’ episode, that mocked everything TP hit a deep nerve with the mogul. Our source claims he’s paranoid and believes it was an inside job – based on the show’s accuracy!!! Our source also says that Madea is giving pink slips to his entire staff [not the shirtless boy wonders of course] starting Friday – – he wants to control any leaks of information about ”the compound!!”
KELLY ROWLAND – “EACH OTHER”!!!
Another song from Kelly Rowland’s recording sessions for her upcoming self-titled album has leaked. This time, it’s in the form of a Rico Love assisted track “Each Other”. While it still has the dance vibe, the song is slower and more mellow.
CHRISTINA AGUILERA RELEASES “YOU LOST ME” SINGLE COVER!!!
Here is the single cover for Christina Aguilera’s second single “You Lost Me”. The song is taken from her recently released album Bionic. While “You Lost Me” will act as her US single, she will release “I Hate Boys” internationally. Check out the song above…
KELLOGG’S IS RECALLING 28 MILLION BOXES OF CEREAL!!!!
Kellogg Co. has really screwed up this time!
The world’s leading cereal maker is recalling somewhere near 28 million boxes of cereal due to temporary symptoms such as nausea and diarrhea caused by an unusual taste and odor coming from the liner within packages. The recall covers Kellogg’s cereals: Apple Jacks, Corn Pops, Fruit Loops, and Honey Smacks. According to the Kellogg company CEO, President David Mackay:
“We apologize to our consumers and our customers and are working diligently to ensure that the affected products are rapidly removed from the marketplace.”
