Porsha Stewart: Staying "Prayerful" Through "Difficult Time"

Posted on April 4, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Porsha Stewart made her first public appearance yesterday since her divorce from Kordell Stewart went public, walking the red carpet at the Bravo Upfront party in New York and trying to keep a brave face. “This is a very difficult time for myself and my family,” said The Real Housewives of Atlanta star. “I’m just trying to remain strong. That’s all I can do and stay prayerful and lean on my friends and family.” Porsha and Kordell often clashed on the reality show over having children and whether or not the former would continue to work if they did. But Stewart says she was shocked by Kordell’s filing and has since sent in legal documents of her own, asking for alimony and sole use of the couple’s Atlanta home. It’s early, but how is single life treatng her? “Well, when you have strong arms and strong family around you, they cover you – that’s what they’re there for,” Porsha told Us Weekly . “So that’s who I’m leaning on. And it’s really a blessing to see people, supporters and fans are standing up and just really showing me the love.”

Nicki Minaj Describes Lil Wayne as "Southern Gentleman"

Posted on April 4, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Lil Wayne is known for many things: selling albums, taking Sizzurp , having seizures . But Nicki Minaj tell s MTV that the artist should also have a reputation for respecting women and knowing his boundaries, two traits that came out when she shot the music video (below) for “High School” with the superstar. Nicki Minaj – High School ft. Lil Wayne “He refused to touch me,” Minaj says of the duo’s sex scene in the video. Adds Nicki: “He’s so respectful… and I was like, ‘You could do this.’ But he was acting scared… He was just being crazy. But if I didn’t tell him ‘Yes, you can do this’ or ‘touch this,’ he refused to do it, like he’s a southern gentlemen, which people don’t realize.” The American Idol judge adds that Wayne is like her “brother” and that the two had a blast on set. “I texted Wayne and I was like, you’re going to have all the chicks back on you, know what I’m saying? Because when this video comes out, he looks like art, he looks like a piece of art all tatted up, all sexy, black and beautiful.” Lil Wayne already has four baby mamas. We don’t think he needs more chicks up on in his place.

Vegan Flips Out After Being Denied Discount For Bringing Own Pasta to Restaurant

Posted on April 4, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

A vegan who brings his own pasta to restaurants to ensure he eats only 100 percent whole grains flipped out when he was charged full-price for his dish. Jack Litsky and his wife went to a Monticello, N.J. eatery, where they often bring their own pasta and were expecting a discount because they usually get one. Instead, the couple was charged $24 per entree. They also weren’t allowed to use a $50 coupon. “The owner said, ‘You come in on a Saturday night and order a custom meal. I have to charge you extra,'” Litsky told the Newark Star-Ledger . “I said, ‘But you’ve already set the precedent where you charged me a lot less on several occasions,’ and she said that was the old manager’s decision.” “She said ‘this is the new price.'” The patrons caused a scene – so much so that the police were called – and Litsky said that the authorities threatened to arrest him for “theft of services.” He decided to pay the bill. The restaurant owner told the paper that Litsky is mistaken about receiving discounts in the past, however as a sign of good faith, they refunded him $12. The moral of the story? Even an innocuous beef over vegan recipes can turn ugly, but cooler heads can always prevail before anyone gets arrested.

Joss Stone Murder Plot: Two Convicted of Trying to Kill Singer

Posted on April 4, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Two men, Keith Liverpool, 35, and Junior Bradshaw, 32, have been found guilty of conspiring to rob and murder British pop singer Joss Stone in 2011. Liverpool was sentenced to at least 10 years and eight months. The sentencing of co-defendant Bradshaw was adjourned. The pair harbored a deep hatred for the soul artist, the three-week trial at Exeter Crown Court heard, though it is far from clear why (as it often is). They were convicted of conspiring to rob and kill Joss Stone last summer, they were then planning to dump her body in a river in her native England. Stunningly, the pair set off from their home with a samurai sword, knives, bags and gloves crammed in their Fiat Punto, bound for Stone’s address. However, their plan to rob and kill Miss Stone – whose birth name is Jocelyn Stoker – was fraught with problems and they were arrested, thank goodness. The guys became lost around seven miles from Stone’s home and stopped to ask postman Alex Greening for directions to the property in Ashill. They displayed a map with notes and a picture of the celebrity on it. The pair had earlier been stopped by police at the M5 Michaelwood services in Gloucestershireafter their Punto crashed into metal railings and a digger. Officers thought the car was too badly damaged to be driven and left. Not the case. The maligned pair continued their journey south. They were arrested on June 13, 2011, a few miles from Stone’s home when concerned local residents – spotting their crash-damaged car – called police. The suspicious uniformed PCs discovered Bradshaw did not have a driving license and arrested him. Their weapons and plot were soon uncovered. Giving evidence to the court, Stone admitted that there was lax security at her home, but said she only learned of the plot against her from police.
