Celebrity Seeds: Kimye To Ditch Directional Baby Theme In Favor Of Family-Related Moniker

Kim And Kanye To Forego Directional Baby Name In Favor Of Family-Related Name Looks like there’s no chance of getting a South-By-South West… According to TMZ reports : Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are ditching the compass when it comes to naming baby #2 … we’ve learned there will be no sequel to North West. Sources close to the couple tell us there’s NO CHANCE their new bundle will be inspired by direction, like their firstborn. Everyone’s been speculating they’d go with something like South, East or even Easton — but we’re told there’s simply no direction in play. The main reason, we’re told … is they want the name to be strong. With North, there was a power element because it’s always on top, or pointing up. The other 3 just don’t have that swagger. Our sources say right now they’re leaning toward something more traditional … with a family-related influence. Think less ‘K’ name … and more likely something connected to Kim or Kanye’s late parents, we’re told. Kim’s due in December, so they’ve got time to sort it out. Perhaps they’ll even go seasonal … Winter West has a nice ring to it, but no word on the sex yet. Not sure how you make a suitable name out of Robert and Donda, but with Kanye’s imagination, we’re sure he’ll come up with something. What do you want to see them name the baby? Image via FameFlynet

Hi Hater: Rihanna Fans Relentlessly Roast Jhene Aiko For Old Diss Tweets

Jhene Aiko Blasted Over Old Rihanna Diss Jhene Aiko recently felt the wrath of Rihanna’s Navy after old screenshots popped up showing her dissing the singer. On Saturday Rih’s fans blasted Aiko over a 2009 tweet blasting Rihanna, Cassie and Kelis for being poor role models. And apparently Rihanna was well aware of the tweet and previously shaded her for suggesting they collab on a song.   Jhene has since claimed that she was hacked back in ’09.   but unfortunately for her no one believes her. Poor thang! She’s not the only one who got outed by the Navy for Rihanna diss tweets however; hit the flip to see who else they slandered….

Son Of Zimbabwe’s First Lady Receives No Jail Time For Killing Man With Car It’s no secret that the rich and powerful get away with murder… Or in this case, manslaughter. According to NY Daily News The eldest son of Zimbabwe’s First Lady has been fined $800 after being convicted of manslaughter. Russell Goreraza, the stepson of long-time leader Robert Mugabe, knocked down and killed a man in Harare, the country’s capital, reports the BBC . The judge said he had decided against jailing the 31-year-old — and taking away his license — because of the defendant’s remorse. Goreraza was also a first-time offender. “I regret and want to apologise for the incident,” he said in court. The BBC claims the lenient sentence has shocked many in Zimbabwe. Two-year prison sentences have been handed down in similar cases. The accident happened in February. SMH. Do you think this is going to come back to haunt his parents? Sounds like something the people might really get upset about. APImages

Mistress Sues Former Lover For $2 Million In “Unpaid Services” After He Refuses To Leave His Wife

Mistress Sues Former Lover For $2 Million A married man swears to his mistress that he’ll leave his wife…only to use her up for years (maybe decades) and never get divorced. It happens every day , and most women would chalk it up as a lesson learned. But one New York woman instead decided to come up with a litany of reasons that she is owed a lump sum of cash now that their affair is over. Via MailOnline : A 67-year-old mistress who spent the last six years trying to get a retired media executive to divorce his wife and leave her alone at their Park Avenue home has filed a $2million suit against the man. James Greenwald, 88, was professionally and romantically involved with Theodora Lee Corsell while he was living with his wife Marilee, according to papers filed in Manhattan Supreme Court. Corsell is suing for the ‘reasonable value’ of the six years during which her ‘services’ went unpaid. She claims she performed tasks for Greenwald such as helping him get rid of New York Giants tickets, dealing with a $3million threat from another mistress and digging up dirt on his 77-year-old wife, according to the New York Post. Corsell, who said her ‘professional services were separate and apart from the parties’ romantic relationship’, alleges Greenwald said he owed her ‘everything’ and promised to compensate her as well as indicated he would leave his wife. Greenwald said he would pay Corsell and include her in his will, the New York Daily News reported. The payment did not happen and neither did the divorce. She says this is about the odd jobs that she performed while they were an item…but we suspect this is more about back pay for the six years of free poon she slung his way while waiting for him to leave his wife.

Director Of “Aloha” Apologizes For Whitewashing Asian Role With Emma Stone

Cameron Crowe Apologizes For Casting Emma Stone As Mixed-Race Asian Woman Is Hollywood starting to recognize how egregious its whitewashing casting choices are? Cameron Crowe’s return to directing, “Aloha,” was not only a box office disappointment over its opening weekend, but enfuriated tons of fans who didn’t understand why a movie set in Hawaii featured virtually NO Pacific Islanders, but the only partially Asian character in the film was cast as a fully-white woman. Via CNN : Writer-director Cameron Crowe is having a tough week. His critically savaged movie, “Aloha,” performed poorly in its first weekend in theaters, collecting just $10.5 million despite a shiny pedigree and a star-studded cast. And now he’s apologizing for what critics are calling the culturally insensitive casting of actress Emma Stone as a part-Asian character. “Thank you so much for all the impassioned comments regarding the casting of the wonderful Emma Stone in the part of Allison Ng,” Crowe wrote in a post on his personal blog. “I have heard your words and your disappointment, and I offer you a heart-felt apology to all who felt this was an odd or misguided casting choice.” The Allison Ng character in the film is a young Air Force pilot in Hawaii with a father who is half Chinese. Ng is proud to be one-quarter Hawaiian, a fact she repeats to almost everyone she encounters. But Stone, who grew up in Arizona, apparently has no Chinese or Pacific Islander ancestry. Native Hawaiians, Asian activists and bloggers have criticized the movie — set entirely in Hawaii — for its overwhelmingly white cast, with many singling out Stone’s casting as being especially egregious. “As far back as 2007, Captain Allison Ng was written to be a super-proud ¼ Hawaiian who was frustrated that, by all outward appearances, she looked nothing like one. A half-Chinese father was meant to show the surprising mix of cultures often prevalent in Hawaii,” he wrote. “Extremely proud of her unlikely heritage, she feels personally compelled to over-explain every chance she gets. The character was based on a real-life, red-headed local who did just that.” It doesn’t fix Hollywood’s frequent refusal to acknowledge races and cultures other than Caucasian…but it’s a step in the right direction, right? Now if only Ridley Scott could do the same for his all-white movie of African Gods and Kings …

Zoe Saldana Not Looking To Get To Pre-Baby Weight Zoe Saldana gained over 70lbs while pregnant with twins Cy & Bowie . Even though she’s working hard with a trainer to regain her health, she stresses that she isn’t really interested in regaining her signature thin frame. Via MailOnline : It has been six months since Zoe Saldana welcomed twin boys Bowie Ezio and Cy Aridio, and while the actress looks amazing, she’s in no rush to return to her post-baby shape. The 36-year-old shows off her stunning figure on the cover of InStyle’s July 2015 issue, wherein she opened up about how motherhood has changed her life. ‘I don’t want to get back to where I used to be,’ the mother-of-two shared, regarding her figure. ‘I want to feel healthy, and not just fit into the old jeans I used to wear.’ Zoe, who looks radiant on the cover in a patterned blue and white Dolce & Gabbana dress, continued: ‘I’m a woman now. My body has changed forever. It’s softer… and stronger.’ The actress has documented her struggle to get back in shape on her Facebook account, sharing a picture of herself working out on a treadmill in April, along with a detailed message describing her journey to regain her stamina and svelte shape. Good for her! She looks nice a little thicker anyway, don’t you agree?
