New Couple? Is Evan Ross Blowing Ashlee Simpson’s Narrow Blonde Backs To Smithereens?

It’s a New Swirl Order for Evan Ross ! Diana’s actor son was spotted boo’d up with Ashlee Simpson over the weekend. Via US Weekly reports : Is Ashlee Simpson seeking the (musically) royal treatment? The pop star stepped out for a night out on the town in Hollywood on Monday, July 1, with Evan Ross, the son of legendary Motown singer Diana Ross, in tow — and the two resurfaced again the next day for a daytime bite. The pair, who popped by Teddy’s at the Roosevelt Hotel late Monday evening, stayed close as they stepped out of the nightclub around 1:30 early Tuesday morning, with Simpson, 28, looking chic in a floor-length flowered maxi dress, her blonde hair worn loose around her shoulders. Ross, 24, similarly kept casual for the pair’s outing, wearing a black sweater over a loose white shirt and dark pants. According to X17 Online, Simpson giggled a bit as Ross helped her into the back of a chauffeured car as they sped away. The next day, on Tuesday, July 2, the duo grabbed lunch together in West Hollywood after they were spotted leaving a mutual friend’s home that morning. Sources tell Us Weekly, however, that the two are hanging out just as pals. “Evan and Ashlee have been friends for a really long time, probably ten years,” a source says of the duo. “They know each other from the club scene and have tons of mutual friends.” Simpson last beau was Boardwalk Empire actor Vincent Piazza, but the couple pulled the plug on their relationship in November 2012 after a year and a half of dating. “There was no bad blood and no third party involved,” a source told Us at the time. “It was honestly just a long distance relationship and it became too hard to make it work.” Simpson is mom to son Bronx, 4, with ex-husband Pete Wentz, 33, and the pair have stayed amicable for the sake of their son since their split in 2011. Womp womp womp… Do you like these two as a couple? GSIMedia Continue reading →

For Discussion: North Carolina Legislation Threatens To Close The Majority Of Abortion Clinics In The State…Do You Think This Is Extreme?

This is ridiculous. Legislation Attacks Abortion According to Raw Story Legislation to ban Islamic law in North Carolina now also contains a number of anti-abortion measures, potentially closing all but one abortion clinic in the state. “This attempted sneak attack on women’s reproductive rights is absolutely shameful,” Sarah Preston of the American Civil Liberties Union of North Carolina said Tuesday. “Issues as vital and personal as access to comprehensive health care and doctor-patient relationships deserve to be debated in an open, public process – not hastily pushed through without notice and under the cover of night during a holiday week.” House Bill 695 originally sought to prohibit courts from using Sharia and other foreign laws in family law proceedings. The North Carolina Senate Judiciary committee on Tuesday unexpectedly tacked on six anti-abortion measures late in the afternoon and sent the bill to the Senate floor for a vote. U.S. Senator Kay Hagan (D-NC) said she was “appalled” by Republicans’ attempt to use “procedural tricks” to ram the anti-abortion measures through the state Senate. The legislation would now allow any health care provider to opt out of providing abortion-related services, prohibit health plans offered through federal health care exchanges from offering abortion coverage, outlaw sex-selection abortions, require doctors to stay in the room during the entire abortion procedure, force abortion clinics to obtain patient-transfer agreements with local hospitals, and mandate that abortion clinics meet the same stringent standards as outpatient surgical centers. “These loathsome restrictions and the deceitful method through which the Senate tried to pass them are an obvious effort to not simply prevent women in North Carolina from having comprehensive access to much-needed health care, but to not even give them an opportunity to weigh in on legislation that will have wide-ranging impacts on women and doctors all across our state,” Preston added. Sen. Warren Daniel (R-Morganton) told the News & Observer that abortion clinics should be regulated the same way as surgical centers. Just one clinic in the state currently meets that standard, which includes regulations on corridor widths and room sizes, among many others. “The politicians who responsible for this backdoor maneuvering have taken seriously the rising tide of activists gathering weekly outside the General Assembly to oppose anti-choice legislation. Unfortunately, the lesson they’ve taken is that the best way to accomplish their goals is to hide their maneuvers from the public,” said Suzanne Buckley of NARAL Pro-Choice North Carolina. Do you think closing the majority of abortion facilities will force women to seek extreme ways to get rid of unwanted children? Continue reading →

Put On Blast: Shakira Says Her Ex Argentinian Boo Thang Is Full Of Isht After Trying To Take Half Her Scrilla In $250 Million Lawsuit

Shakira is about to put his bizness on blast. Shakira Says Ex Is Liar $250 million…..let us hold some of that when ya’ll stop fighting. According to TMZ It’s a good thing Shakira keeps her old emails … ’cause the pop star says she found an old cyber-exchange that proves her ex-BF is lying through his Argentinian teeth in his $250 million lawsuit. Shakira has filed a declaration in her legal war with Antonio De La Rua — who she dated from 2000 to 2010 — in which she adamantly denies A.D.L.R. has any right to her fortune, despite his claim that he’s entitled to a cut of her businesses. FYI — A.D.L.R. claims he wasn’t just Shak’s lover, he was also her business adviser and says she owes him a quarter of a BILLION dollars … based on an oral agreement the two struck back in 2004. But Shakira is calling B.S. on Antonio … claiming in 2011, he sent her an email in which he couldn’t have made it any clearer — “I am not a partner in any of your companies. You are the sole owner of all of them.” Shakira says he sent a similar email to her mother. In the legal docs, filed in L.A. County Superior Court, Shakira also says she had hammered out a relationship contract back in 2006 — the equivalent of a prenup — that spelled out their financial obligations to one another in case they broke up. According to Shakira, both parties agreed back in ’06 to create a joint account worth $10k … which they would split if they broke up. Shakira says they also agreed to “renounce” any rights to future earnings. Shakira explains the point of the contract was to prevent a stupid lawsuit … like the one Antonio has filed. The case is due back in court later this month. Do you think Shakira will win?

Jesus Take The Wheel: 16 People Killed In Egypt As Supporters And Opponents Of Egypt’s President Clash

Isht is real in Egypt . Egypt In Crisis According to Mail Online Officials say sixteen people have been killed in clashes between supporters and opponents of Egypt’s president as the country faces the prospect of civil war. Unofficial sources claim the figure could be as many as 23. The death toll comes after a night of violence outside Cairo University, which also left as many as 200 injured. President Mohammed Morsi, who yesterday rebuffed an army ultimatum to force a resolution to Egypt’s political crisis, has made an emotional speech which was aired live to the nation. The confrontation has pushed the most populous Arab nation closer to the abyss amid a deepening economic crisis two years after the overthrow of Hosni Mubarak, raising concern in Washington, Europe and neighbouring Israel. But as anti-Morsi protests entered the third day, Egyptian shares jumped to a three-week high this morning. The bourse’s benchmark index jumped 4.9 per cent in early trade to its highest point since June 9 after a bank holiday on Monday to mark the start of a new fiscal year. Share prices fell 12 per cent in June amid fears that a mass protest called for June 30 might deteriorate into violence, further aggravating a deteriorating economy. Hopefully this senseless violence will stop. Shutterstock

It’s a….. Kirk Frost Reveals Sex Of Baby With Rasheeda Rasheeda was in LA this past weekend for the BET Awards. The reality star was nominated for an award and chatted with Hip Hollywood while on the red carpet on her baby’s name and gender: “I do know. I have a name and I know what I’m having but I can’t tell you. Y’all gotta stay locked in on television Monday nights, VH1, 8 o’clock.” Rasheeda later talked about her relationship status with punk azz Kirk Frost: “You know what, it’s a work in progress. Still working on it. We’re here together because he’s such an influential part of my career. And he’s here, holding me down because I’m nominated for Best Female Hip Hop Artist. On the personal side, we’re trying to make it work.” Diorce or nah? “Not specifically, but it all depends on how he (Kirk) balances it all out.” After Rasheeda finished her interview, Kirk answered questions and slipped up and revealed they are having another boy. “I’m getting used to it. I’ve been a father for a long time. So I’m adjusting. II’m getting used to it. I’m happy. I can’t wait to meet him.” Mona Scott and VH1 ain’t going to be happy about this one!

Hide Ya Kids? KimYe Turn Down $3Milli Deal For First Photos Of Dash-ing Daughter North West

Ye wasn’t playing… North is not America’s baby! And apparently she’s not Australia’s baby either because Kanye West and Kim Kardashian have reportedly said no to a deal that would have netted them $3 million for their daughter’s first photos. Via US Weekly reports : North West isn’t ready for her close-up just yet. The first daughter of media mavens Kim Kardashian and Kanye West won’t be making her big debut in the spotlight anytime soon — for any price. The media-savvy couple have yet to share any photos of their tiny bundle of joy since welcoming her into the world on June 15, though they’ve been offered a whopping $3 million from an Australian magazine to do so. “Kanye’s been adamant about not having the baby on the show,” an insider tells Us Weekly. “He was serious when he said North isn’t America’s baby, so he may not do anything.” The rapper’s protective, paternal instincts move beyond just maintaining North’s image, however. West, 36, has been a doting father to his daughter, becoming a “super worrywart” over her and trying to stay by her side as much as possible. “Kim told him it was good to get out!” a friend of the Yeezus rapper tells Us. “He couldn’t wait to get back. North is all they talk about.” His new family-centric attitude is even starting to affect Kardashian, 32, who has toned down her usual social media frenzy in the past few weeks, only breaking her silence to wish sister Khloe a happy 29th birthday on Thursday, June 27. “Motherhood has changed her,” a source tells Us. We’re not surprised KimYe said no to the dough. After all they got plenty money! But we are shocked that Kim has managed to go so long without tweeting or posting a photo of herself but we all know it’s just a matter of time before she and her baby show up to show off. Y’all already know they can’t be letting Bey and Blue Ivy get all the shine. SplashNews Continue reading →

F Yo Lawsuit: Skateboard P Counter Sues Futuristic Space Ninja Will.I.Am For Fugazi Trademake Infringement Claims

Do unto others as they would do unto you… Pharrell Is Counter Suing Will.I.Am For Copyright Infringement Claims According to TMZ reports : Will.i.am … Will.iam … Pharrell doesn’t like that Will.i.am … and now he’s suing the Black Eyed Peas rapper in what’s becoming a pretty nasty trademark war … which now involves Dr. Seuss, TMZ has learned. Pharrell — who’s featured on TWO mega-hits right now (“Get Lucky” & “Blurred Lines”) — recently launched a YouTube channel called I Am Other … and he’s pissed that Will.i.am is trying to block him from using the name. Why? According to Pharrell, Will has already sent him a cease and desist letter informing P that he owns the rights to all things with an “I Am” element … and warned Pharrell to back down or else. Pharrell didn’t run scared … he ran to court … and SUED Will — in an effort to stop Will from stopping him. In the suit, filed in federal court in NY and obtained by TMZ, Pharrell argues that they are each using “I Am” in completely different ways. Pharrell says Will is using the “I Am” is a Seussian way — as a playfull riff on his own name — and to hammer home his point, he quotes from Green Eggs and Ham: “Sam I am I am Sam I am Sam Sam I am” Pharrell continues in his suit, “In contrast, the I Am Other mark means ‘I am something else,’ leaving what that ‘else’ is to the imagination of the consumer. It certainly does not mean ‘I am Will.’” Sounds like ol’ Willie Will is in for a fight that he probably won’t win. Couldn’t these two just have easily talked this out?

But tick tock, tick tock … still no album more than a year later. Torion claims Wayne and company have abandoned him, and he wants out of the contract.
