STR8 LOCK-UPS: MARIO PULLS A CHRIS BROWN ON HIS MOM!

J'More — Fri, 01 Oct 2010 20:43:04 +0000

Say it ain’t so Mario! Earlier this morning, R&B singer Mario was arrested in Baltimore for allegedly assaulting his mother in their apartment. According to TMZ, Mario’s mother Shawntia Hardaway told five-0 that he had been “throwing and damaging property” and also pushed her around a few times. The cops also found a few broken items inside the apartment–including a broken china cabinet, a busted mirror and a hole in the closet door. And it seems like this isn’t the first time Mario has put his hands on his mother. She also told the cops that he attacked her earlier this week, pushing her “eight feet into a living room wall”, which caused her to hit her head on the wall. WOW…I’m speechless!

Check out Mario’s mugshot…doesn’t look too bad ‘eh?

I’m at a loss for words. Can’t believe this is the same Mario who made it his goal to help kick his mother’s heroine addiction. Damn, what made homeboy snap?

STR8 SNITCHIN’: MATT KEMP WANTS TO PUT A RING ON IT?!

J'More — Fri, 01 Oct 2010 14:06:25 +0000

Matt Kemp likes Rihanna so much that homeboy wants to put a ring on it! Although, the couple have been dating for only eight months, word is Matt really wants to wife Rihanna up. Snitches close to Matt and Raggedy Ann Rihanna ran their mouths to Us Weekly.

“They are in love,” says a snitch. “Seeing them interact, it’s definitely possible he could propose — but it’d have to be a long engagement, because they’re both so focused on their careers.”

Meanwhile, a snitch close to RiRi dishes,

“He centers her, as he has a more normal life. He allows her space, but they text and talk all the time. And they really have fun like kids when they’re together. They like to laugh and be silly.”

Rihanna is too young to be settling down…don’t you agree?

STR8 SNITCHIN’: CHRIS BROWN CHEAP & DEPRESSED!

According to snitches in this case Page Six, “While Rihanna rocked the house on Sunday night at the Video Music Awards — her opening act with Eminem was voted best performance by MTV viewers — her ex-boyfriend, Chris Brown, sulked in a corner at Veranda nightclub in the West Village. “He looked lifeless,” a witness said. “He barely spoke to anyone and refused to take pictures with fans.”
The snitch also claims C.Breezy was given two free bottles of vodka at the club, stayed for two hours and didn’t leave a tip.
Really Chris…no tip?! Why do most celebrities insist on being cheap when they got all that guap?!

CHRIS BROWN ON MJ BET TRIBUTE: “IT WASN’T FAKE!”

LexAve — Wed, 25 Aug 2010 14:19:31 +0000

Yesterday Chris Brown stopped by BET’s “106 & Park” to discuss his BET Awards Michael Jackson tribute, the rumored tour with Usher and to teach his fans how to dougie. The ladies in the audience went bananas! Cue the clip…

For Hip Hop News & Entertainment at DimeWars.Com

When Rosci & Terrence asked him about his MJ BET tribute, CB said the following:

“A lot of people don’t know, I was going to see Michael Jackson the day he died. I was on my way to the Staples Center that day,” Brown told an overly excited crowd of weeping, mostly female fans. “When I heard ‘Man In The Mirror,’ it just touched me. It wasn’t fake. I know people were trying to put extras on it, but everything was genuine. That was my ultimate apology, hands down.”

When asked about the tour with Usher, Brown said it might happen at some point, but for now he wants to focus on his own career.

“At first we were talking about it, but maybe in the future. For now, just doing the Chris Breezy thing,” he said, adding that the video to his “Matrix” track will be released after his upcoming “Takers” flick, which hits theaters this Friday (Aug. 27). “It’s a five to six-minute short film,” he revealed about the clip.

Is it me or is Chris Brown looking a bit overgrown in that horrid outfit…not to mention that stupid Dougie dance. C’mon man!

Ya boy Twista has returned from hiatus with a smooth little track for the ladies and the end of the summer entitled “Make a Movie” featuring none other than ladies man Chris Breezy. The intro is autotuned, so brace yourself but the rest of the track is decent. I guess this will be some promotion for Twista’s forthcoming project, The Perfect Storm, which is slated to release later this year.

STR8 TALK: WILL CHRIS BROWN’S TEARS STRIKE A STRONG COMEBACK?!

LexAve — Mon, 28 Jun 2010 14:40:58 +0000

While everyone continues to talk about Chris Brown’s on stage meltdown during his Michael Jackson tribute at 2010 BET Awards singing “Man in The Mirror”, we’re gonna address just in fact if Chris Brown is due for a comeback. Ever since he laid that midnight beatdown on swag princess Rihanna, Chris Brown has struggled to get his career back but last night he’s amazing show stopping performance of Michael Jackson’s “Remember The Time” and “Billie Jean” solidified his talents and #teambreezy was in full effect.

Granted CB has engaged in numerous douche bag antics both via twitter and in interviews with the media, but last night BET gave the fallen star the perfect platform to demonstrate his emotion and albeit somewhat dramatic choked up performance. But is it a coincidence Chris Brown, nearly a year later, finally breaks down on stage during an award show, during an MJ tribute, and to the song “Man In The Mirror”. How fitting?! Could it be Chris Brown was overcome by the powerful lyrics of MJ’s “Man In The Mirror”:

I’m starting with the man in the mirror
I’m asking him to change his ways
And no message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself, and then make a change

Could it be Chris Brown was so struck and saddened by Michael’s death? or Did Chris Brown make it all about himself and his issues and not about MJ? Was it genuine or pure PR stunt? We can’t really say…but Chris Brown did have a few words to share when he accepted his award for BET’s Fandemonium award: “I let you all down before but I won’t do it again,” he said. “I promise you.”
Whatever you may think of Chris Brown’s breakdown, that’s all subjective but one thing is for certain…THAT BOY CAN DANCE!
Here’s what you missed:

Is this what America’s been waiting for…Chris Brown finally sobbing and crying on stage? Will this moment catapult him back into the spotlight and stardom?…not that he ever lost it, but more like in good graces with the public. Maybe, just maybe. Is this all what Tiger Woods and all the other fallen celebrities need to do…experience a full blown melt down?
