Chuck was driving in Scottsdale, Arizona when cops allegedly noticed him run a stop sign. He was pulled over and asked to take a breathalyzer test which he refused to do. The former Phoenix Suns player was then taken by the police to a mobile command post where he received a blood alcohol test.

After taking the test, he was issued a citation and released pending the results of the test.

If found guilty, the man once known as the 'Round Mound of Rebound' will face between 1 and 10 days in prison and a $1,000 fine

JENA 6 TEEN ATTEMPTS SUICDE



One of the teens who was involved with the Jena 6 fiasco has once again found himself on the wrong side of the law.

Mychal Bell was one of six teenagers who was imprisoned in 2007 for a school fight between black and white teenagers in Jena, La. The fight, and the teens subsequent arrest led to a historic civil rights march in Jena attended by over 20,000 people who demanded that Bell and his teenage Co-Defendants all be released from prison due to the racially biased treatment that they were receiving.

Bell, who once faced charges of attempted murder for the fight in Jena came face to face with the long arm of the law once again this year on Christmas Eve. Allegedly, Bell was caught shoplifting some shirts and jeans from an area department store. When he was approached by the store's security, he fled the scene and hid under a car. Bell was later captured by the store's security and local police. Reportedly, Bell then swung at one of the arresting officers and struck him in the face with an elbow. He was apprehended and later released on $1,300 bond.

On Monday, the 18 year old Bell was rushed to a Monroe, LA hospital after shooting himself in the chest with a .22 caliber firearm. Bell is believed to have shot himself because he did not want to cope with the media coverage that he was getting from his latest arrest. His wounds are not believed to be life threatening, but no other details on his condition have been released.

FORMER FAMILY MATTERS STAR PREGNANT


You might remember seeing child star Jaimee Foxworth on Vh1's Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew last season. After years of fighting an addiction to marijuana and other drugs, Jaimee went on the show as a way to conquer some of her demons.

In a statement released earlier today, Jaimee announced that she and her longtime boyfriend are expecting their first child together. The 29 year old Foxworth recently said “I haven’t been this happy in years"when asked about the pregnancy.

You might remember that after leaving Family Matters, Jaimee lost all of her money and had to resort to doin somethin strange for a piece of change in order to make ends meet.

MORE OF THE SAME @ MTV



There will be 16..That's right I said 16 new reality shows from MTV in the new year..

Among the 16 new unscripted series to debut over the next 4½ months are shows from such high-profile producers as Sean "Diddy" Combs ("Starmaker"), Matt Stone & Trey Parker, Donald Trump and Nick Lachey. And, according to Variety, they represent a major thematic shift for the channel -- more toward the meta-scripted reality of MTV's "The Hills," one of the cabler's few success stories these days.

This is some foolishness right here...where in the hell is the MUSIC in MTV??!?!? They should flip the name to B.S.TV

JOHN FORTE IS FREE AT LAST


Christmas came a little early this year for former Refugee All-Star John Forte. Forte was released from New Jersey's Fort Dix prison today after serving 7 years hard times.

Thanks to George W. Bush, Forte was pardoned from a 14 year sentence in the last few months of G.W's term in office.

Forte's harsh sentence came after federal authorities busted him with 31 lbs of liquid coke at New Jersey's Newark International Airport back in 2000.

After his release he will still be subject to 5 years probation.

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
BE A FATHER is a frank discussion of how family formation has changed since the 1960s. Twenty-four writers then flesh out historical, sociological, and cultural contexts, examining the impact of welfare, child support, criminal justice, and employment policies on young men of color, Black men in particular. Key to the pieces is the role of hip hop as an influential cultural phenomenon that shaped the individual writer's conceptions of sexual behavior, family formation, fathering, and community building. Gripping firsthand narratives expound on statistical data to form a powerful composite portrait of the challenges facing modern African American communities, and how to overcome them.

THE DAMN...DAMN...DAMN VIDEO OF THE WEEK


Getting your ENTIRE weave pulled out and having your bald spots shown to the world while getting your ass beat at the an obvious BYOB event is never a good look. Well Shavon and Monifa here give us the main reason as to why Tasha's Dominican Braids will no longer have their annual company Christmas party.

SO MUCH FUCKERY...SO LITTLE TIME

I understand that I have been MIA for the past few days, but while attempting to come back from a 2 day absence I have compiled the most fuckarific things that I have found floating on the internets over the last few days.

The first round of Fuckery goes to Max B, formerly of The Dikset. Now I personally believe that anyone that has been associated with the Diks over the years lives some sort of "alternative" sexual lifestyle. But this shit right hurr nigga goes above and beyond proving my point about Max's "alternate" lifestyle. He actually recorded himself confronting Jim Jones with 20 goons outside of the studio in NY. Now that's not the worst part. The worst part is that his camera man wasn't ready when Jones walked out of the studio...Overall a 7.25 on the Fuckery scale.


Video Provided by DatPiff.com


You ready for round two? Well this segment of fuckery is brought to you by Ron Browz and his “Jumping out the Window” dance…This entire video reminds me of an episode of Men on Film. I was just waiting for one of them to give two snaps a kiss and a twist and bust out with an rendition of "It's raining men"


Flo-Rida's hairline=PURE Fuckery...This nigga claims to be 29 years old with an edge up that starts at his ears..Negro PUHLEASE....Nuff said son!!!

NEW MOVIE PREVIEW*OBSESSED


If you thought you were going to see less of Beyonce in 2009, you can think again. Bust It Baby Bey is coming right back in April 09 with her new movie 'Obsessed.'

This thriller features Bey staring as the wife of a character played by Idris Elba or Skringa Bell as most of us know him. Things start to fall apart between the couple as Elba's character has an encounter with another woman who just won't leave him alone.

The movie itself looks good, Bey's acting skills in this one might be up for debate..Watch the trailer and tell me what you think.

FIRST THE FAT BOYS BREAK UP...NOW J.LO AND MARC ANTHONY??



Accordint to US Weekly, Jennifer Lopez and her hubby are headed down that good ol' road called SPLITSVILLE!!!!

He's very, very controlling of her," a close Anthony pal tells Us. "The skirts aren't as short. You don't see so much of that booty anymore." The new Us Weekly also reports that Anthony also picks out Lopez's clothes and keeps tabs on her phone calls.

The magazine reports that the two Latin Lovers have not been getting along, and have also been seen without their wedding rings as of late.
But Lopez -- who once claimed she "loved getting his opinions" -- has become less interested in his approval since the birth of their 10-month-old twins, Max and Emme.
"She walks in from work, washes her hands and grabs the babies," a longtime friend tells Us. "With him, it's almost like, 'Ugh, they're crying again?'"

J-Lo also blames Marc for destroying her career because apparently forgot she's partly responsible for a little thing called Gigli:

"Jennifer looked around and said, 'This is my life now? I'm a Long Island housewife?'" a pal says. "She hates that everything she worked for went down the tubes."


This is crazy..These two just had twins...Does anybody's relationship last these days?!?!?

NEW MOVIE PREVIEW*MADEA GOES TO JAIL


Tyler Perry finds another reason to dress up as a womanbrings back the character of Madea for the new movie 'Madea Goes To Jail.' This movie features PuffyDerek Luke, Keshia Knight Puliam and Perry himself.

In the movie, Rudy finds herself playing the role of a prostitute who Derek Luke's character starts to realize that he is in love with right before getting married to his girlfriend.

I've never been a fan of the whole Madea movement, but I must admit that this one looks like it may be funny.

CHARGES AGAINST MAN WHO TRIED TO BLACK MAIL ALLEN IVERSON DROPPED



Allen Iverson's one time friend Andre "Artie" Steele has escaped prosecution in the case that was brought him for allegedly attempting to black mail A.I. back in March.

Virginia Beach prosecutors have dropped an extortion charge against a 38-year-old Hampton man accused of attempting to shake down NBA star and Peninsula native Allen Iverson.

Assistant Commonwealth’s Attorney Phillip C. Hollowell tried to delay Monday’s hearing until the completion of the NBA season — saying he and Iverson had not had a chance to discuss the case.

A Virginia Beach Circuit Court judge would not delay the case. The charge can still be brought back at a later date, but a new indictment would have to be filed.


My sources tell me that Artie's problems all stem from a problem that he has with putting a certain white substance in his nose. He had been stealing from A.I. for a while, and got upset when the NBA star cut him off.

T-BOZ SAYS SHE ISN'T HOMELESS...



Last week, the word on the curb was that the Atlanta home belonging to T-Boz was being foreclosed on. Well, Tionne has sat down with Essence magazine to dispel these nasty rumors.


ESSENCE.COM: Well, there have been reports that a Georgia property of yours is going into foreclosure. Is that true?
T-BOZ: No, I'm not homeless. During my last marriage [to Mack 10], I had a bunch of things that were put in my name. If one of those properties is going into foreclosure then I don't know. Although I've been divorced for five years, there are still a lot of things I'm dealing with on getting straight in that regard. All I know is that the house I live in with my daughter is not. When you pull up my name, my real house doesn't show up because it's not in my real name, because I enjoy my privacy and I'm not trying to have people be able to find me that easily.

ESSENCE.COM: There were also reports of you losing a home in Houston?
T-BOZ: I've never owned a home in Houston. I closed a store in Houston, Chase's Closet, where I sold girls and boys clothing from infants to 12 years. The store is named after my daughter, Chase. For now, I only have the online store (chasescloset.com).

ESSENCE.COM: That explains the locale. Did you see the photos they had of you that were allegedly in front of your Houston home begging for donations?
T-BOZ: It's almost a waste of energy to give an explanation, but I'll just say that the [blogosphere] loves to make up things. I remember that photo and it was on Craiglist.com showing me holding up an autographed picture on the internet saying, "If you come to this address with cash we'll give you an autographed picture." The only thing that irritated me was that they said that the proceeds would be donated to St. Jude's [Children's Research Hospital]. I can take people talking about me all day, but don't use my name to make fun of sick children because that's beyond low and sick. I was a sick kid for a long time, in and out of the hospital most of my life battling my sickle cell, so I don't find anything funny about that kind of joking. Why would anyone target innocent sick children to make fun of? That's not cool at all. I mean someone actually took the time to make up all this stuff.

ESSENCE.COM: How do you think the rumor began?
T-BOZ: Honestly, I don't know. Ever since the news that TLC went bankrupt back in the day, I suppose everyone wants to believe that we are all struggling, but we're doing fine. And if it were true, does it really matter? All those things are material. I get that negativity and violence sells, so people just stick to that formula. I'm just trying to live life and raise a little a girl that I was told I couldn't have because of my sickle cell disease. I'm trying to do something that matters and make a difference with diseases. When I think about having my organs fail, my heartbeat stop and then begin again, this stuff is so trivial and I'm shocked that people believe everything they read because so much of it is far-fetched. My friends call me a miracle, and I am because there were so many times I almost didn't make it when I was dealing with my sickness, but I'm doing so much better and I can only thank God.

DON'T GO CHASIN WATERFALLS...


Because this recession has claimed another victim. Reports surfaced today that TLC member T-Boz is facing some financial issues and is facing a home foreclosure. T-Boz, real name Tionne Watkins is the owner of a 10,000 square foot, five-bedroom Atlanta area mansion.

It looks like the rumors that started floating around earlier this year about Watkin's financial woes were true because her home is going up for auction in January. Sources say that she defaulted on a $530,000 loan.

PROOF THAT BIGGIE WROTE FOR KIM AND CEASE


I'm sure you all are familiar with the term "Ghost Writer" where a rapper has someone else write a verse for them, and then goes into the booth and spits the rhymes themselves.

It's no secret that Biggie was Lil Kim's ghost writer. When you listen to her first CD, Hardcore you can hear Big's signature rhyme pattern over most of the songs.

Sometimes, after an artist ghost writes a song, they will actually go in the studio and record what is called a reference track of the song for the person who is going to be performing it.

Well someone has dug up some old reference tracks that Biggie recorded for Lil Kim and Lil Cease of Junior Mafia.

Listen below as BIG performs Cease's verse from Players Anthem and Kim's verse from Queen B.

This is pretty classic stuff...Who woulda ever thought that BIG was writing for

Today marks the 1 year anniversary of the death of Pimp C. One of my fondest memories of The Pimp comes from two interviews that he did in Dallas and Atlanta prior to his death. Pimp was the type of dude who didn't bite his tongue for nothing and spoke his mind and in these two interviews you get to hear him in his rarest form. Not only is he speakin the truth...he was also FUNNY AS HELL!!!!! Listen to the two joints below to get a good laff in memory of The Pimp.

NENE SAYS SHE WASN'T EVICTED



Real Housewives of ATL star Nene has released a statement refuting the claims that she and her family were evicted from their Atlanta area home recently.

“The recent rumors alleging that my family faced an eviction are a huge misunderstanding and grossly inaccurate, I am truly blessed to enjoy a wonderful life and lifestyle. We have indeed moved to another home, but we did so on our own free will. Everybody knows that I like to be honest, real and upfront. If something was wrong, I would tell you!”


Hmmmmm...I like Nene and all, but do we believe her?!?!?

HOW DREADFUL...



Ladies, it looks like your gay boyfriend has gone and gotten himself a TV show. Hairstylist Dwight Eubanks, who always seemed to have Nene's back on Real Housewives of ATL may have permed himself into reality TV super stardom. The new show entitled "Behind The Purple Door" will follow Dwight as he runs his prestigious hair salon in Atlanta. According to the creators of the show, a deal is in the works to bring the show to the small screen very soon.
