Lil Wayne Shoots Videos, Shows Off Awards In New Pre-Jail Clip

Rapper describes plans to film seven videos in one night, including one for Drake. By Shaheem Reid, with additional reporting by Rahman Dukes Lil Wayne Photo: Courtesy Nino Brown Nino Brown: The Road to Rikers, Part 2 Saturday night Lil Wayne and DJ Scoob Doo sent in a video clip featuring footage they shot that afternoon. Among other things, Wayne said it was time to party before he begins his expected one-year prison term at New York’s Rikers Island. But in fact he was doing the exact opposite. Wayne was back at work, filming several more music videos before his sentencing on gun charges on Tuesday. “I’m shooting seven videos today,” said Wayne, in his trailer on-set in Miami, in a brand-new clip you’ll see here exclusively. One of the videos of the night was for the Rebirth track “Runnin.” “I’mma show y’all the [work] ethic of a true artist,” Wayne says in the clip. “You know what I’m talkin’ about? Seven videos. I shot 10 in two days before. Now we about to do seven in one night. [‘Runnin’] was one. Next we about to do Drake’s song called ‘Afrika Boombatta.’ ” The New Orleans Fireman then began mulling over his wardrobe for Drake’s shoot. He was deciding between one of his brand-new tees promoting his Twitter account, “@liltunechi,” or a funky interpretation of deceased legend Marilyn Monroe. “Gotta wear one of my ‘@liltunechi’ shirts on there,” Wayne said. ” ‘Cause that song is a fun song. So I could wear that. Then again it’s Drake, so you might wanna get a little fly for his sh–.” Wayne then pulled out a T-shirt featuring Monroe with tattoos all over her arm. “Yeah, that’s stupid,” the Birdman Jr. said of the Monroe shirt. “I might have to rock that.” This latest clip of Wayne starts with the acclaimed performer showing off all the BET Hip-Hop Awards in his house. Later he says he needs more VMAs. “I got a house full of BET Awards,” Wayne said with a grin. “I got one MTV Award. MTV, holla atcha boy now. I’m not gonna mess up your function. I’m just gonna come get my award, thank God, thank my ‘hood, thank my fam. I ain’t gotta perform. “Give me an award for nothin’,” he continued with a chuckle. ” ‘The award for nothin’ goes to Lil Wayne.’ That’s all I need. MTV Award for nothin’, man.” Wayne and DJ Scoob Doo are also filming the reality DVD “The Nino Brown Story Part 3.” The first two installments are available at DJ Scoob Doo’s Web site .

Blake Lively Just Because She’s Hot

I don’t think I have to tell you folks just how absolutely gorgeous Blake Lively is, if she wasn’t always working so hard or hanging out in her bikini with some co-star douche or ignoring all my twitter advances and inappropriate twitpics or pretending I don’t exist all together, I think our relationship would be much stronger. I don’t really care, I know that every relationship takes work and I’m not afraid to put in the time and effort to make this thing work… Even if I’m not allowed within 200 feet of her.

Conan O’Brien Joins Twitter

‘Today I interviewed a squirrel in my backyard and then threw to commercial,’ former ‘Tonight Show’ host joked. By Joel Hanek Conan O’Brien Photo: Bryan Bedder/ Getty Images Conan O’Brien has been lying low since his final “Tonight Show” appearance on January 22, where he performed a hilarious and heartwarming rendition of Lynyrd Skynyrd’s “Free Bird” alongside Will Ferrell to close out the show. On Wednesday, however, the comedian broke his silence through what is currently one of the most popular mediums for celebrities: Twitter. “Today I interviewed a squirrel in my backyard and then threw to commercial,” O’Brien tweeted . “Somebody help me.” With just one tweet and less than 24 hours since signing up for the social-networking site, O’Brien has already gained over 235,000 followers. At the beginning of the year, O’Brien and his longtime employer NBC were involved in a much publicized disaccord over the future of “The Tonight Show.” After receiving low ratings due to a failed experiment that involved moving previous “Tonight Show” host Jay Leno to a 10 p.m. time slot and letting O’Brien helm the late-night staple, NBC proposed to push Leno’s new show to 11:30 and bump O’Brien’s “Tonight Show” back to 12:05 a.m. Believing that a time slot shift would “seriously damage” what Conan called “the greatest franchise in the history of broadcasting,” O’Brien chose to walk away from the network with a $33 million settlement deal. The comedian sardonically joked about the ordeal in the “Bio” section of his Twitter profile: “I had a show. Then I had a different show. Now I have a Twitter account.” Conan chose to create a Twitter account just days before Jay Leno will resume hosting “The Tonight Show” on Monday, March 1. And while O’Brien has not announced any future plans to host another talk show, in January, NBC picked up a series produced by his company, Conaco . And judging from the traffic on his Twitter, it’s clear that his army of dedicated fans still care what the comedian has to say.
