The #AskDiddy panel on Saturday (Oct. 17) at the Revolt Music Conference in Miami was jam packed. Sean “Diddy” Combs really did answer any and all questions—while politely curving a couple of people asking to spit rap bars for him—but one of the most interesting moments was when he said Vote Or Die was “full of sh*t.” Continue Continue reading →
If you’re a member of the hip-hop community, there’s a good chance you spent your weekend in Atlanta, Georgia.

The 11th annual A3C Music Festival and Conference kicked off with inspirational […]
Fans in attendance at last night’s Los Angeles Clippers-Oklahoma City Thunder basketball game went home unhappy. The home squad lost to the Thunder, ending their season a round short of the Conference Finals and giving supporters more free time to contemplate the awfulness of owner Donald Sterling . But, hey, at least a majority of men, women and children at the Staples Center weren’t dissed and dismissed by Jack Nicholson. The same can’t be said for one young boy, who reached to shake the Oscar winner’s hand and was summarily ignored. Watch the sad snub play out below: Jack Nicholson Snubs Young Fan
Ed Kramer, co-founder of Dragon Con, pled guilty to three counts of child molestation this morning in Atlanta, Georgia, over 13 years after the first allegations that he sodomized three young boys were made. As a condition of his plea, Kramer was given 5 years for each count to run concurrently which a judge reduced to 34 months of house arrest , ordered to pay a $100,000 fine to each of his victims, and is required to register as a sex offender. HOUSE ARREST for molestation after avoiding prosecution for 13 years! In October of 2000, two boys, then 13 and 15, alleged that he had molested them while they slept over at the science-fiction conference creator’s house. Just before prosecutors were set to go to trial in 2003, a third young man came forward with allegations of his own which dated back to 1996. Kramer has avoided a trial for the past 13 years citing health reasons which would prohibit him from spending full days in a court room. Doctors have stated that he could only handle up to three hours at a time in court because of his use of a respirator, and that he would require a 90 minute break in between each 3 hour court session, making going to trial nearly impossible. A Gwinnett County district attorney stated in 2010 that he believed much of Kramer’s health complaints to be fabricated to avoid going to trial. Earlier this year, Kramer’s former business partners announced that he would no longer profit from Dragon Con when former attendees threatened to boycott the conference because of the molestation charges. He was paid an undisclosed amount for his share of the conference.
Not only Alec Baldwin support gay rights, he has been in love with men himself, he said at the Dreamforce tech conference in San Francisco this week. In the wake of his recent homophobic slurs , the actor went out of his way to show that he’s not anti-gay. On the contrary, in fact. He loves his lawyer. Alec Baldwin Loves Men At one point during the conference, Baldwin called out his attorney, Matt, who he told, in a joking manner, that “I love you. I love you in THAT WAY.” Baldwin then turned serious, saying ” I’ve loved men in my life . There are some men I’ve loved in my life as much, if not more, than the women in my life.” “I don’t have a sexual preference for men, but I’ve loved men. I’ve been in love with about 3 or 4 men … as much, if not more, than any woman I’ve loved.” He then added, “I don’t wanna have a sexual relationship with them.” Fair enough, Alec. Now we just gotta work on your rage issues …

Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries are scheduled to come face-to-face today for a divorce settlement conference in Los Angeles. But there’s one little problem: the moronic Brooklyn Nets forward isn’t gonna make it in time. Sources confirm to TMZ that Humphries was in New York City this morning at 1. And with the first flight out of JFK not arriving at LAX until 9:15 a.m., it will be difficult for Kris to attend a hearing scheduled for 8:30 a.m. Both halves of the estranged couple are required to be present at the conference to attempt a resolution before their divorce case goes to trial. But Humphries may simply consider the event fruitless, considering he’s holding out for a $7 million payoff or he will continue to pursue an annulment. Kardashian is expected to call witnesses at the May 6 trial that will prove Humphries was well aware of what he was getting into all along, while Kris… is being sued by a clothing store owner who says he reneged on a deal. Yup, pretty much everyone hates this guy.
