Where Are Dr. Love’s Parents? Fake Teen Dr. Arrested Again! [Video]

Malachi needs to quit with all this mess… NBCMiami : Malachi Love-Robinson, the alleged fake teen doctor, has been arrested again. He faces new charges of larceny between $20,000 and $100,000, and fraud. According to The Palm Beach Post , Love-Robinson was arrested Monday during a court hearing where his attorney asked to be released from serving as the 19-year-old’s lawyer. Love-Robinson was first arrested in February and charged with practicing medicine without a license, fraud, theft and faking a naturopathy license. Last month, attorneys for the so called “Dr. Love” filed documents saying they are “exploring the viability of a defense focused on limitations presented by the defendant’s mental health.” Earlier this year, Love-Robinson turned down a plea deal in which he would have served three years in prison.

Tyler Perry’s ‘Alex Cross’ Trailer: Five Key Scenes

Tyler Perry and Matthew Fox feel the pain in the first trailer for the James Patterson adaptation. By Josh Wigler Tyler Perry in “Alex Cross” Photo: Don’t cross Alex Cross. Do cross the “Alex Cross” trailer. Tyler Perry makes his debut as James Patterson’s iconic detective and forensic psychologist in the first official trailer for “Alex Cross,” which premiered exclusively on Amazon Tuesday (June 26). Previously played by Morgan Freeman in “Kiss the Girls” and “Along Came a Spider,” Cross gets a younger makeover in the Perry-starring flick, as well as an impossibly ripped homicidal-maniac nemesis in the form of “Lost” veteran Matthew Fox. The trailer is all kinds of bonkers, with Fox shouting out sadistic one-liners and threatening women like it’s his job (in this case, it actually is) and Perry doing everything he can to hold it together while going up against one of the most ruthless psychopaths this side of Madea. Keep reading for five key scenes from the trailer! Tyler Perry’s Alex Cross If there’s one word to describe Perry’s take on the sharp-minded detective, it’s “smooth.” The trailer introduces us to a cool and composed Alex sipping drinks with his wife; she needs some convincing to leave Detroit and join Cross on his next assignment. His proposed method of getting her to come with him? “The National Guard and a drink.” You had me at “the”! He Had to Go Back Fox wholeheartedly embraces his inner Heath-Joker in the “Alex Cross” trailer, playing Michael “The Butcher” Sullivan, a killer who is “fascinated by pain.” Cross determines that Sullivan is “ex-military, special forces, judging by his tactics.” He’s also an Ultimate Fighting Champion, if you can believe it, and has a thing for Doctor Cross’ very pretty wife. It’s an unusual new shade for the actor most commonly associated with good guys Jack Shephard and Charlie Salinger, but it’ll be a fascinating transformation — or train wreck — to behold. Feel the Burns Just don’t get too distracted by Fox’s villainy. Also starring in “Alex Cross” is “Saving Private Ryan” and “Entourage” actor Edward Burns as Cross’ partner, Tommy Kane. It’s weird seeing Burns in a third-tier role at best; as a writer and director by trade, he tends to be somewhat choosy with his acting roles. (Ignore that “27 Dresses” credit.) So I’m calling it now: Burns is the real bad guy pulling Fox’s strings. Then again, I incorrectly called Jeremy Renner as the secret “Mission: Impossible” villain and Jared Harris as a red herring for the real Moriarty in the last “Sherlock Holmes” movie, so take my predictions with a half-cup serving of salt. Matthew Fox and the Chocolate Factory Watch at around the two-minute mark as Fox gets his high-tech Augustus Gloop on. If you need further reasons to see “Alex Cross” when it hits theaters this October, I don’t know what to tell you. To Hell and Back Again “He won’t stop. I’ve seen his face. I’ve heard his voice,” Perry’s Cross warns his wife of Fox’s killer. “I will meet his soul at the gates of Hell before I let him take a person that I love!” If there’s a better alternate ending to “Lost” or the “Madea” films than Tyler Perry and Matthew Fox battling to the death for Satan’s amusement, I haven’t heard of it. The trailer’s action-packed finale is, in a word, surreal, every bit as oddly enjoyable as the promise of Perry versus Fox sounds on paper. This demonic battle of the ages cannot come soon enough.

Diddy, Atlanta Radio Host ‘Talked It Out’ After Club Rant

Kenny Burns tells MTV News that Diddy’s anger was directed at someone in his booth. By Rob Markman Diddy Photo: John Shearer/ WireImage Diddy said he’s sorry , T.I. said he meant no disrespect , and radio personality Kenny Burns said there is no beef. Things may have gotten a little heated in Atlanta club Compound this weekend when Diddy chastised a clubgoer for drinking Grey Goose vodka instead of the Puff-endorsed Ciroc, but it’s all good now, according to Burns, who can be seen arguing with Diddy in a video of the incident. “Puff and I got a long history of knowing each other and it’s really nothing we can’t talk out, because we done been through a lot,” Burns told MTV News. In the clip, Diddy — who was hosting a BET Hip Hop Awards afterparty on Saturday alongside T.I. — was on the microphone hyping up the crowd. At one point, the music stopped and the Bad Boy CEO barked at a patron for drinking his rival Grey Goose. “Bitch-ass n—a, put that sh– down,” he yelled into the mic before appearing to throw a piece of ice. After Diddy’s tirade, T.I., who was just released from prison and is currently on probation, grabbed the mic to reason with his collaborator and friend to let the people drink what they want. V-103 radio host Kenny Burns is also seen on the tape, and to some, it appeared that Diddy’s anger was directed at him. Not the case, said Burns, who has an endorsement deal with Grey Goose. “The only truth to that is that I’m an ambassador for Grey Goose and that he is an ambassador for Ciroc,” he said. “At the end of the day, no, he was not talking to me. He was actually going at somebody in my booth. He made a mention in a song, ‘Everybody put your bottles up,’ and my table happened to be in front of his, and we were all drinking Grey Goose.” Burns insists that he was trying to play peacemaker, helping protect Puff’s image and his friend as well. “I thought I’d jump in it and put my man back where he was supposed to be so he wasn’t in harm’s way and then climb up on the ledge and holla at Puff,” he said. “At the end of the day, he’s an icon of our generation. He don’t need that look.” During a Wild 105.7 interview in Atlanta, T.I. clarified that he wasn’t disrespecting Diddy but simply trying to “defuse the situation.” Diddy has since taken to Twitter to apologize for his actions, and Kenny Burns said it has all been resolved. “Immediately after the club, myself and him went behind the cars and talked like men,” he said. “We talked it out.” Related Artists Diddy
