MC Hammer , who has done everything from breed horses to manage MMA fighters, made an announcement at the Web 2.0 Summit in San Francisco that he wants to boldly go where no search engine has gone before. WireDoo is the result of two years of research into what Google is supposedly not doing right. Hammer and his team claim that WireDoo is “about relationships beyond just the keywords.” So when you do your searches for those Amber Rose nude pics (we KNOW you’re doing) it won’t just show you the pics, it’ll show you about Amber Rose’s hairstyle tips, shoe fetishes and other things, but nothing about roses or amber alerts for missing kids. WireDoo is still in development so we have to wait and see if it does what he claims.

Demi Moore made a public appearance in New York City last night, attending the premiere of Margin Call at the Landmark Sunshine Cinema. You might pick up on three items from the following event photos: Ashton Kutcher is not by her side. The actress looks very thin. She is wearing a wedding ring. Moore has kept a mostly low profile since rumors of her and Kutcher’s divorce hit the Internet last month. Neither side has done or said much to quiet this chatter, with alleged mistress Sara Leal doing most of the talking. But anonymous friends of the actress have expressed concern over Demi’s weight , and it’s easy to see why, based on the above images. Please, someone get this woman a cheeseburger. [Photos: WENN.com]
‘It’s bad that it takes pain to unite people, but [it’s good] to see people from all walks of life come together,’ rapper tells MTV News. By Steven Roberts David Banner at Occupy Wall Street Photo: MTV News NEW YORK — By now, you’ve heard about Occupy Wall Street , the demonstration that began September 17 in Manhattan’s Zuccotti Park. The demonstration has been both lauded and laughed at, and it has continued to grow and spread to several cities across the globe. The movement has made waves throughout the media and caught the attention of several politicians, celebrities and CEOs, including David Banner. MTV News followed the Mississippi rapper down to the park — now dubbed “Liberty Park” — last week. He said he was proud to see Americans standing up for themselves, because he’s always worked for the upward mobility of people. He also drew a parallel between America’s current economic struggles and the fallen music industry. “You watched in the same way that the middle class is being evaporated; you don’t have those 250,000 to 650,000 artists anymore,” Banner said. “You[‘re] either selling 15,000 records, 20,000 records or you selling a million records. So the middle class in entertainment is going the same way the middle class in America is going.” David Banner isn’t alone: Tom Morello , Kanye West and Talib Kweli have also joined the Occupy Wall Street protesters throughout their monthlong demonstration. One of Banner’s main goals was to present the side of the people. He said he’s noticed some Republican leaders speaking disrespectfully about the protesters, as well as about the general public. “I hear comments like, they need to work hard or they need to take baths. Like, dude, why would you even say that about your people? Regardless of whether we agree with each other or not, we’re all American,” Banner said. “This is even our opportunity to show the side of the people, to allow people to really talk, especially the young people.” Another of Banner’s goals was making sure people’s goals were expressed. He worried that the power of the movement could be watered down because it’s faceless. There are consequences to having leaders and goals, but at least everyone would know exactly what they were out there for. When Banner talked to a few of the demonstrators, he didn’t find one common thread, but he said he was motivated by their willingness to take a stand. “It’s bad that it takes pain to unite people, but [it’s good] to see people from all walks of life, all colors, all creeds come together to try to make something happen.” Share your thoughts on the ongoing Wall Street protests in the comments below.

It’s no secret that rappers from around the country have been taking their talents to South Beach, turning Miami into their personal playground. However, longtime resident of Miami-Dade county Luther “Uncle Luke” Campbell is taking exception to everyone taking from his city but giving nothing back. In a letter to the Miami New Times, the legendary Luke took aim at Lil Wayne, Diddy, DJ Khaled and others: “I’ve got a message for Lil Wayne, his Cash Money Brothers, DJ Khaled, Puff Daddy and all the rappers from other parts of the country who now live in Miami. I’m tired of seeing these cats using up our beaches, soaking up our sunshine, taking over the nightclubs, and sleeping with our women without investing anything into the community. I want to know when Lil Wayne is going to do more than show up courtside at the American Airlines Arena. Hell, it’s not like he paid for them anyway. You know he got comped.” “This free loading and mooching of my city has got to stop. There used to be a day when out of town rappers were scared to throw their weight around Miami. It didn’t matter if they were coming from New York or Los Angeles, they knew better than to act like they owned this motherfu**er.” READ THE FULL LETTER AT VLADTV.COM RELATED POSTS: EXCLUSIVE VIDEO: Uncle Luke Talks Marriage, Hip Hop Honors At Birthday Bash 15!

Monday’s Dancing With the Stars performances captured a critical year in the life of each participant. For J.R. Martinez , that year was 2003, when he was wounded in Iraq. For Chaz Bono, the most defining year has been this one. Bono said ’11 has been his most meaningful because “I’m happier than I’ve ever been,” then danced a rumba to a song that his father wrote, “Laugh at Me.” Its message: “If you have a problem with me, then it’s your problem, not mine.” Chaz Bono on Dancing With the Stars (Week 3) Unfortunately for the 42-year-old activist, who’s drawn both ire and support as the first transgendered contestant on Dancing With the Stars , his positive attitude, courage and charisma simply don’t translate to dancing skills. His score of 18 landed him in last place for the second straight week, three full points behind the next lowest total. Barring an upset, he’ll be out the door tonight. If so, he’ll do so what his held high. What more can one ask for?
