Houston Got to See Kanye’s Bad Side

Monday, May 5th, 2008

Friday night at Kanye’s Houston show for his “Glow in the Dark” tour with Rihanna, he threw one of his infamous tantrums.

Two songs into his set, a pair of video screens weren’t acting as they should. He yelled, “Turn the (expletive) screen off,” before he stormed offstage, prompting a chorus of boos, and then cheers once the screens were shut down.

Today he says:

“HOUSTON I LOVE YOU! Don’t believe the hype! When I started the show the other night we were having a lot of technical issues due 2 the heat. The 2 huge screens on both sides of the stage were glaring bright blue like when your DVD player acts up at home. I asked for them 2 turn the screens off 3 times because it was distracting 2 the show. The fans were not getting what they paid for. I admit, in my frustration, I did use profanity on the 4th time I asked. I stopped the show 2 go over and check it out myself. After the screens were turned off I started the same song from the beginning. The screens were eventually fixed 5 songs in but it was definitely better 2 have them blacked out rather than bright blue. Unfortunately for certain media outlets, you will never be able 2 ‘Michael Jackson’ me. That means 2 make it seem like everything I do is so weird or out of place… they always try 2 make it seem like everything is about my ego! That joke is getting old. At a certain point you have 2 respect that I’m one of the last artist that still cares about the fans having the best time of there lives! Thanks 2 Bossip and Perez for taking it easy on me on the EW spaz… I did go in a little 2 much on that one. I’m sure there are some cool people who work over there and had nothing 2 do with that review. With all that said…. “I’m still the greatest!!!” lol!! Oh and I was in the studio with T.I. last night…. so get ready!!! “

Grand Theft Auto Gets a 100

Sunday, May 4th, 2008

The newest installment of Grand Theft Auto is upon us and if the reviews are correct, this is simply put the best video game ever created.

 

Although I have sworn off video games as a distraction more than anything else I must admit, talk of a Liberty City that lives an breaths without repetition of any kind has me intrigued.

 

This game is predicted to make over $400 million in its first week, numbers like that have hollywoods attention… make no mistake this game is the first and probably the biggest blockbuster release of the summer.

 

So far the only controversy that surrounds it, is a bug that is freezing the game up during its opening credits, but give it time as I’m sure a city of this magnitude has some darker secrets that lie beneath its surface. Don’t worry kids no need to get crazy in line or skip school, the game is out and your copy will be waiting whenever your ready to pick it up. Let us know what you think of the game.

Simon’s Kiss Revealed

Sunday, May 4th, 2008

Mr Cowell looked visibly shocked by the call, wincing and holding his head in his hands in disbelief.

He said:

   “My god, we’re going back 17 years. This is really you Tara? This literally was my first kiss – this was my first crush.”

The star, 48, was further embarrassed when fellow judges Randy Jackson and Miss Abdul teasingly asked Miss McDonald-Smith if he was a good kisser.

The 46-year-old paused for some time before joking the incident had left her needing therapy.

It did not take long for Mr Cowell to turn his charm back on, however, asking the single mother, “Do you still look cute?”

A source close to Mr Cowell told the Daily Mail: “He would love to meet up with Tara. He’s really glad she came forward and thinks it would be brilliant to catch up.”

Free Madonna Concert

Sunday, May 4th, 2008

Madonna’s out there pimping her new CD, “Hard Candy”. She gave a free concert at Roseland Ballroom in New York City last night where Justin Timberlake joined her on stage.

She looks great, although the pipes may be a little rusty it looks like it will be a good show.  Although hearing the 50-year-old mother of two say the “ef word” several times in an attempt to get the crowd going is plain uncomfortable (see clip 3).

Missing Money

Sunday, May 4th, 2008

Here’s Britney at the Spears’ Louisiana country mansion for Jamie Lynn’s baby shower Saturday.

Dad, Jamie Spears has hired a CPA to assess the havoc wreaked on Britney’s bank account since February 2007, when Britney first went publicly crazy and shaved her head. According to In Touch weekly that Britney’s family was shocked to find out how much money Britney blew before Dad stepped in to slow her crazy behavior.

Jamie’s Spears paid for the accountants himself to figure out how much money Britney has spent and is missing since February 2007.

In Touch Weekly reports:

Jamie must have learned just how much of a toll Britney’s crazy behavior, which started in February 2007 when she shaved her head, has had on her bank account – she’s lost nearly $61 million. “It’s staggering how much money has been used up,” a family friend says. In addition to the enormous tab for legal bills, rehab and psychiatric care, Britney’s inability to work has cost her a fortune. “By not touring for her last album [Blackout], she lost out on $50 million,” estimates Robert Bianchi, an LA-based CPA who isn’t an accountant for Britney. Jamie hired his own accountants to sort out the money mess and bring an end to the 26-year-old’s excessive spending. “It’s been quite a challenge getting things under control,” the insider says.”
