STR8NYC’S TOP HOLLYHOOD MOMENTS OF 2009! http://str8nyc.com/2009/12/31/str8nycs-top-hollyhood-moments-of-2009/ http://str8nyc.com/2009/12/31/str8nycs-top-hollyhood-moments-of-2009/#comments Thu, 31 Dec 2009 15:55:11 +0000 J'More http://str8nyc.com/?p=30250 STR8NYC’S TOP HOLLYHOOD MOMENTS OF 2009!

There’s no denying that 2009 has been a very eventful year for Hollyhood. From break-ups to beatdowns, we’ve created a list of the most juiciest moments in Hollyhood.

rihanna-and-chris-5

Good Girl Gone Bad Rihanna and Chris Brown admitted they were more than just “good friends”. Unfortunately, before the year ended their puppy love came to a screeching halt when Chris whooped her ass the night before the Grammy Awards in L.A.

kanyewesttaylor

Kanye West stole country singer Taylor Swift’s shine at this year’s VMA’s uttering the infamous line, “I’mma let you finish but, Beyonce had one of the best videos of all time!” The cocky and arrogant rapper received a lot of media backlash and eventually went into hiding.

2009vma

Just when we thought security would’ve gotten the memo to beef things up a bit, out comes Lil Mama who hops on stage and crashes Jay-Z and Alicia Key’s set of “Empire State of Mind”.

beaniesigel

Beanie Sigel came out of no where and launched an attack on Jay-Z with diss record “What You Talkin’ About (Average Cat)” and eventually teamed up with 50 Cent for another diss record titled “I Go Off”.

kanyeamberKanye replaced ex-girlfriend Alexis Phifer with bald headed video vixen Amber Rose who quickly became an instant celebrity. Amber went from working the pole for cash to red carpet events, shopping sprees and even front row seats at Fashion Week.

50centrickross
We found out Rick Ross used to be a CO. Officer Ricky started beef with 50 Cent to sell records and 50 took the meaning of the word “beef” to a wholenotha level by taking Ricky’s babymama shopping and hooking her up with a book deal.

usher-tameka-4
Usher finally cut Tameka Foster’s cougar ass and signed those “Papers”. Poor Tameka found out about the divorce on  the internet. A few months later, Tameka expressed how she really felt about Usher’s ass and keyed up his whip.

weezy
Lil Wayne was really on a mission to f*ck every girl in the world. The rapper knocked up three broads in less than a year–an uknown Asian chick, actress Lauren London and The Dream’s ex-wife Nivea.

cassie
Cassie’s pierced A cups and vajayjay were on display via the World Wide Web. That very same week Rihanna’s pierced chi-chis knocked her ass out of the spotlight. Unfortunately for Cassie, the naked flicks didn’t help her sell any records.

alicia-keys-and-swizz-beats
Swizz Beatz’ wife Mashonda aired out Alicia Keys for stealing her husband. We found out that Miss “Superwoman” is more than just a Grammy-Award winning singer…she’s actually a homewrecker too!

naskelis

Hip-Hop’s royal couple, no not Jay-Z and Beyonce but rather Nas and Kelis called it quits citing “irreconcilable differences”. Kelis took Nas to court claiming she was broke and needed him to hit her off with some spousal support, pay her legal fees, and among other things drop $20,000 on baby Knight’s stroller, crib and other baby supplies. A judge sided with the “Milkshake” singer and ordered Nas to pay her $44,000 a month in child support.

Cant’ wait to see what 2010 has in store for us!

5napkinburger1

Over the holiday weekend, I feel in love. Although I’ve dined at this American Bar & Grill, 5 Napkin Burger a few times (strictly for appetizers), it wasn’t until this weekend it hit me. This is the best burger joint in the world!! Take it from gal who swore off burgers about six years ago, that was until I tried the veggie and turkey burgers here…AMAZING! One bite off the 10 oz., turkey patty, cheddar bacon masterpiece and trust you’ll melt. Aside from the great customer service, if you’re looking for the best burgers in town hit up 5 Napkin Burger, order the “Cheddar Bacon” burger either beef or Turkey with a Yuengling Porter or even a Brooklyn “Pilsner” and you’re good to go! 5 Napkin Burger 630 Ninth Ave at 45th St (212-757-2277)

KELLY ROWLAND LEAVES COLUMBIA?! + DESTINY’S CHILD REUNION?! http://str8nyc.com/2009/03/31/kelly-rowland-leaves-columbia-destinys-child-reunion/ http://str8nyc.com/2009/03/31/kelly-rowland-leaves-columbia-destinys-child-reunion/#comments Tue, 31 Mar 2009 21:25:49 +0000 LexAve http://str8nyc.com/?p=14152 KELLY ROWLAND LEAVES COLUMBIA?! + DESTINY’S CHILD REUNION?!


We reported the rumor this past weekend and now its official, Kelly Rowland is leaving her longtime home at Columbia Records. The split was described in a statement issued yesterday as “mutual and amicable.”


“Because Columbia Records has been my home base as an artist for more than a decade, the decision to move out on my own required a lot of soul-searching,” said Kelly Rowland. “As a solo artist, I felt the need to explore new directions, new challenges, and new freedoms outside my comfort zone and my friends and family at Columbia have been incredibly understanding about my evolution. I want to thank everyone at Columbia for the love and support they’ve shown and I will never forget how many good times we’ve had over the years.”

“Kelly Rowland is one of our finest contemporary artists and a musical force to be reckoned with,” said Rob Stringer, CEO, Columbia/Epic Label Music Group. “It has been a privilege and a pleasure to work with Kelly and we will continue our working relationship with her under the Destiny’s Child moniker. The decision for Kelly to seek other opportunities for her solo career was agreed upon mutually, and any reports to the contrary are false.”


I understand what’s being said here, but what I don’t understand is the part of the announcement that refers to Kelly as part of Destiny’s Child, they wrote, she

“will continue her relationship with Columbia Records in her ongoing role in the iconic ensemble.”


Can we expect a reunion of DC3 anytime soon?! Will Sasha come rescue Kelly and the other chick out of their sinking careers?! Regardless, I’m glad to see Kizzy step up and take hold of her career.

Sidebar: Let’s just hope Kizzy doesn’t jump on reality TV bandwagon, ay dios mio that’ll be the last straw!
