Put On Blast: Janet Jackson’s Billionaire Boo Thang Chopped Down A Playboy Pole Dancer

Janet girl we happy you snagged your billionaire boy toy, but we don’t know about this! Janet Jackson’s Husband Use To Date Playboy Playmate According to The National Enquirer JANET JACKSON’s billionaire hubby has a NASTY secret in his past! Jackson may have to cover up her body for new billionaire husband, Wissam Al Mana, after reportedly converting to Islam, but that was never the case for Wissam’s former flame – Gwen Rogers, a pole dancer and Playboy Playmate. Rogers, a well-known Washington, D.C. based dancer and “model” – she graced the pages of Playboy five times including the Women of Washington issue in 1988 — told RadarOnline.com that she dated Wissam, who she met when he was a student at George Washington University. “Yes, Wissam and I dated. He was a great guy, very private,” Gwen said. “I met him when he was a student. He was very religious. I wish him and Janet all the best and that’s all I want to say about him.” Gwen was just as shocked as the rest of the world when she heard the news that her ex-lover had married the Rhythm Nation singer. On April 7 Gwen wrote on her Facebook page: “BREAKING NEWS: I just hears on the radio that Janet Jackson DID convert to Islam…after marrying one of my ex-boyfriends… Wissam Almana.” The notoriously private Jackson secretly married the Qatari-born retail entrepreneur during a hush-hush ceremony in 2012. They say what’s done in the dark will always come to light. On the other hand would you care if your billionaire boo dated a freaky dancer if he kept those stacks on deck? Getty Images

Clap Back: “The Kang” T.I. Is LIVID That His Likeness And Hip-Hop Music Is Being Associated With Boston Bomber Tragedy!

Clifford ain’t ’bout to tolerate no disrespec’ patnah! T.I. Angry That His Likeness And Hip Hop Is Associated With Boston Bombing According to TMZ reports : T.I. is pissed … telling TMZ he has no connection to the hip hop website frequented by dead Boston bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev … a site that prominently featured the rapper’s mug. T.I. had no idea his pictures were posted — he’d never even HEARD of Real-HipHop.com — and he’s upset that the hip hop genre is now connected to the bombers. “Hip hop narrates the activity and conditions of our culture,” he tells us. “It doesn’t create them.” T.I. is frustrated: “Hip hop ain’t never been about hurting innocent people,” T.I. said. He feels Boston “was a horrible tragedy and my prayers go out to the families involved.” Seriously though, we’re with The Kang on this one. What the FAWK does the fact that Tamerlan listened to rap music have to do with the murder of innocent people?! Sounds like another way for the media to connect people of color to terrorism …SMMFH Image via TMZ
