Kelly Rowland has more in common with her best friend Kim Kardashian than we thought. Both ladies took the plunge with the wrong man – well, Kelly almost did. Back in 2005, Kelly was engaged to be married to NFLer Roy Williams, but just two months before the wedding, Kelly broke it off. She recently told Britain’s Daily: “I wanted that wedding. I wanted to be married. You can just make wrong decisions in life. That was all part of growing up. I just think it’s important to trust your gut. I did a lot of soul-searching afterwards, and I want to be married, so dating is part of that process.” She also told the Daily Mail : “I’m careful with my heart. I don’t take crap from no one these days. I put my foot down. Being a woman you deserve heaven and earth. So if a man wants to date me, know that I don’t take crap. When I get married it will be for life, divorce is not an option.” Kelly Rowland Has A Sex Shop Obsession Kelly Rowland & Lance Gross Get Cozy On Set [PHOTO] Kelly Rowland: “I Was Embarassed To Call Off My Wedding”
Prince William is kind of the man. Not only is he rich, famous, intelligent, married to a lovely young woman and the heir to the British throne, he’s an accomplished pilot in the UK’s armed forces – as evidenced during a daring rescue mission he took part in this morning. William helped save the lives of Russian seamen whose cargo vessel sank into the Irish Sea off the coast of North Wales early today, according to various reports. Known simply as Flight Lt. William Wales in the Royal Air Force, he was co-pilot in a four-man rescue helicopter crew that responded to a mayday call around 2 a.m. At that point, the vessel Swanland’s hull apparently cracked in bad weather. He and fellow military servicemen saved two men, airlifting them to safety at William’s base on the Welsh island of Anglesey, where he lives with Kate Middleton . The body of one of Swanland’s crew has been recovered; five are still missing. “We know at least some of [the missing] are wearing immersion suits and have strobe lighting with them,” Jim Green, a coast guard spokesman, said Sunday. “However, sea conditions are challenging at best.” [Photo: WENN.com]
Weed the lips of Miley Cyrus: this singer really enjoys smoking pot. At her 19th birthday party last week, Miley was presented with a Bob Marley cake and told the crowd: “You know you’re a stoner when your friends make you a Bob Marley cake. You know you smoke way too much f-cking weed!” Watch the video of the confession, obtained by The Daily, below: Miley Cyrus Weed Confession Kelly Osbourne, who was on stage with her pal, then grabbed the mic and – referring to THIS VIDEO from last year – joked with Cyrus: “I thought salvia was your problem!” Meanwhile, the night of her birthday, Miley made news for another video: she posted a tribute to those involved in the Occupy Wall Street movement. No word yet from Miley’s camp regarding the words about weed, but Osbourne has taken to her Twitter posted this less-than-convincing defense: “u guys if @MileyCyrus is not recording/filming/touring she is works everyday how could she possible do all that if she was a stoner! #think.”
Somewhere up in a smoke room in heaven, Bob Marley is toking with the angels to burn away the memory of Miley Cyrus blowing out her 19 birthday candles on a cake with his face on it.

Nicki Minaj is the apple of Drake’s eye! He recently released his sophomore album Take Care which features the single “Proud Of You” with the head Barb in charge. He tells The Daily Beast : “If there’s any woman in my life that’s the ideal woman for me, it’s definitely Nicki. I like the stripped-down Nicki. I like Nicki with no makeup, black hair, some casual clothes in a recording booth rapping an amazing verse. That’s sexy to me. I know some great women, but all jokes aside, Nicki is somebody I could spend my life with because I think we understand each other.” Ludacris On His Drake & Big Sean Diss Track: “I Don’t Start These Things, I Finish Them” [AUDIO] Drake Talks Being Biracial: “I Don’t Even Notice Color”
‘All his verses on the album, it sounds like you’re getting smacked upside the head,’ producer tells Mixtape Daily. By Rob Markman Nas Photo: MTV News Behind the Beats: Salaam Remi Salaam Remi and Nas didn’t start out as buddies, but some things are just meant to be. By the time Nas was putting out his classic rap LP Illmatic, Salaam was separately making his mark, already having produced for seminal hip-hop star Kurtis Blow at the age of 14. Though they hailed from the same Queens, New York, neighborhood and ran in similar circles, Nas and Salaam didn’t hook up until 2001, when Nas requested a beat from Remi for his Stillmatic LP. Now, 10 years later, he and Nas are still at it, working on God’s Son’s upcoming 10th solo studio album. “Life is different, and at this point, life is good and dudes is looking younger now than they did when they were 25,” Remi told Mixtape Daily. “So he’s just in that rare form.” It’s surprising that they didn’t hook up sooner, but after going through a small spat with one of Nas’ mentors, Large Professor, Remi never got the chance to really get to know Nas earlier. But a 2001 chance meeting in L.A. led to one of hip-hop’s most organic partnerships. “I created the track for ‘What Goes Around (Poison),’ and I sent it to him,” Remi recalled. “And when I sent it to him, at the end of the day, we’re in the same neighborhood.” Remi’s discography is long and diverse. In 1991, he worked alongside Marley Marl on Craig G’s Now, That’s More Like It album, and three years later, he produced Ini Kamoze’s reggae hit “Here Comes the Hotstepper.” Salaam, however, is most known for producing the Fugees’ 1996 smash single “Fu-Gee-La” from their Grammy-winning The Score LP. Then, of course, there is his work with Amy Winehouse on her 2006 breakout, Back to Black. Since hooking up, Salaam has been responsible for a number of Nas bangers: 2003’s “Made You Look” was noted for its authentic New York feel, while the uplifting “I Can” sampled its drums from the Honeydrippers’ “Impeach the President,” one of the most recognizable samples in hip-hop. In 2004, Remi crafted “Thief’s Theme” and Nas’ collaboration with his dad, “Bridging the Gap” More recently, the two have come up with the gritty “Nasty,” the first single from the Queens rap legend’s upcoming album. On the boom-bap-inspired track, Nas chooses to bypass any notions of going pop, instead setting his sets on hip-hop’s underground. It’s a welcomed departure from the hip-hop that occupies top 40 radio these days, but Salaam promised that the sound on Esco’s next album will be diverse. “Musically, I have an array of records,” he said. “You got some ‘Nasty’-type stuff, you have stuff that’s in the middle, up, down. I have all types of stuff. Just at the end of the day, we have to see what feels right for that package of 10 to 12 songs, because it’s way more songs.” The expectations for this new Nas album are high, and Remi assured fans that his friend will deliver. “He sounds like he’s on his A-game writing,” he said. “All his features at this point, all his verses on the album, it sounds like you’re getting smacked upside the head. As much as ‘Nasty’ has that type of beat, it’s really him on the beat that’s making it connect all the way.” For other artists featured in Mixtape Daily, check out Mixtape Daily Headlines .

Of course with the release of a new album comes all types of deep introspective interviews, and your boy Drake always gives us plenty to discuss. Take his little chat with The Daily Beast , for example, where, once again, the topic of his heart-ing Rihanna was once again the topic… “I came straight from Toronto, just a kid that was trying to get out of my mom’s house, and the first person I meet is a girl that’s the biggest person you could possibly meet at my age,” said Drake. “So I meet her and it was just mind-blowing. I couldn’t believe she’d even want to talk to me.” He paused for a moment, adding, “I read some interview where they painted me as so sad and heartbroken, but we’re cool. I was never torn apart by that situation.” Really? But just last month you were… oh, never mind. And then, we discovered just how real “Tough Guy Drizzy” can get. Still, the story has persisted in the media, sparking recent rumors that Brown elbowed Drake in the head in retaliation. “I respect Chris Brown. I’d like to call myself a friend—I don’t know if I’m allowed to do that,” said Drake. “But I definitely didn’t get elbowed in my face. Somebody would’ve got knocked the f–k out.” That made us giggle a little… And then we checked out his cover feature for the December/January issue of Complex Magazine and realized this is really how this dude talks when he drops his Aaliyah aspirations . “I don’t give a [fawk]. I want to move through life in the most non-confrontational way possible, but I’m not a p****. Don’t ever get that mixed up. “My father taught me: ‘Don’t fear any man. Don’t ever fear another person.’ I don’t get myself mixed up with stupid [isht]. I get a lot of love. I don’t feel tension. I stand 6’2″. By no means am I the most threatening guy in the rap game, but there are very few people who will come up and say that isht to me in person. It’s always all smiles. That’s one thing I do not fear, anyone in this game. Nobody. Especially none of these guys that are paid to talk [isht].” Well, alrighty then Aubrey. Flip through and check out some more interesting quotes and photos from Drake’s Complex jawn, including the real deal about the next two famous women who will probably end up in his music.
