Just when we thought Kanye’s ego couldn’t get any bigger… Via The Sun reports : ECCENTRIC Kanye West wants to call his baby by Kim Kardashian NORTH. The rapper, 35, came up with a list of potential names for the baby — due in July — but North is at the top because he thinks it sounds good with his last name. He sounded out pals about the moniker last month while working in Paris during fashion week. But the title is unlikely to go down well with girlfriend Kim, 32, whose family have a tradition of starting their first names with a K. The reality star might also have a problem with her boyfriend’s next album title — I Am God. He is toying with the idea while he records new material. A source said: “Kanye’s ego is something else, so he’s quite serious about the title. “He also has a sense of humor though and knows how his self-indulgence is seen by the general public. It’s half tongue-in-cheek, half what Kanye probably feels is true.” It is not the first time his ego has surfaced recently. In December, the rapper complained onstage about the Grammys for failing to nominate his Watch The Throne or My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy releases for Album Of The Year.
Chicago Lawyer Convicted Of Murdering Eddy Curry’s Girlfriend And 10-Month-Old Daughter Via NYPost A jury has convicted a Chicago attorney of murdering former NBA center Eddy Curry’s ex-girlfriend and infant daughter four years ago. Fredrick Goings showed no reaction when the jury’s guilty verdict was read Tuesday in the January 2009 shooting deaths of 24-year-old Nova Henry and her and Curry’s 10-month-old daughter, Ava. Goings represented Henry in a child custody case against the former Chicago Bulls, New York Knicks and Miami Heat center, and was also romantically involved with her. Prosecutors say Henry tried to end her relationship with Goings and moved out with her and Curry’s two children. They say Goings shot Henry in her home while she was holding the infant. Her and Curry’s son, who was then 3 years old, was also in the home but wasn’t harmed. Curry, who now plays in China, didn’t testify. Says Nova’s mother, Yolan Henry: “I’m feeling elated. I can breathe,” she said. “I feel justice has been served.” Yolan Henry testified that she found her surviving grandson, Noah, with the bodies of his sister and mother, and that he told her, “Fredrick did it.” It’s good to see the system benefit those who deserve justice and punish a$$holes that kill babies.

Don’t let the doorknob hit ya where ya ex-boyfriend split ya Frank Ocean Moving To Shanghai For 2 Years After Grammy’s Via Rolling Out If you looked in the dictionary for the definition of an enigmatic recluse, then by all rights you should find Frank Ocean’s picture. The music world’s golden child has seen his name and work listed in every major publication and obscure blog ever since he released his critically acclaimed debut album, Channel Orange, and revealed his same-sex attraction over the summer. But, if Ocean had it his way, he’d live in solitude in the depths of a body of water that bears his name. But, since that’s not ever going to happen, the singer is apparently doing the next best thing: getting on a plane and moving across the globe. In a new cover story for The New York Times, Ocean talks (with minimum detail) about his rise to fame and how it feels to be an anti-pop star in an era when privacy is almost non-existent. And though Ocean has spoken in the past about wanting to move to Canada or London to flee the limelight, he’s now revealed to the publication that he’s going across the world to find solitude. He tells The New York Times that he plans on traveling to Shanghai, China, after Sunday night’s Grammys to write “in remote locations for the next two years.” Ocean also plans to write a book during that time as well. “You can say that. It’s fiction, and it’s about brothers. That’s all I’m going to say,” he revealed. These artists are gettin’ more weird by the day. Do what ya gotta do Frank, but don’t expect us to be waitin’ around for your great return. Image via GQ
We already told you about the horrific details from the young woman who testified Mendeecees told her she performed better sex acts than her mom but neglected to mention that Yandy has been in the courtroom to support her baby daddy at his trial. According to Cliffview Pilot reports , Yandy was definitely there for the beginning of the trial on Tuesday: “We call it taking candy from a baby,” Assistant Bergen County Prosecutor Demetra Maurice said. “An adult like Mendeecee Harris can easily manipulate a child into doing things like performing “sloppy top” – with words, with actions and later, with money,” Maurice said, as Harris, his girlfriend — fellow “Love & Hip Hop” celebrity Yandy Smith — and other family members and friends looked on. (A entourage escorted her into the courtroom and moved with her during breaks — with some holding coats over her face to block photographers. One member of the group even followed a CLIFFVIEW PILOT reporter/photographer upstairs and around a corner when she sat down to write.) The publication did not make any mention of her presence in their coverage of closing arguments however: Harris’ defense attorney Bryan Neary took issue with the key witness not being able to remember dates of specific incidents, citing what he called “contradiction upon contradiction” and “inconsistencies.” Their Lodi home didn’t have locks, he said, and the woman’s brothers were around, running in and out of the house — making the sexual encounters she described implausible. Neary also took issue with Assistant Bergen County Prosecutor Demetra Maurice’s attempt to untangle Harris’ relationships with three different women. “How dare the prosecutor suggest that because he had a different lifestyle – that because he had different girlfriends – sometimes at the same time?” Neary asked. “And that he’s a reality TV star who gets $4,000 an episode… How dare she?” “Not one question contradicted his belief, his strong feeling, and the truth that he had nothing to do with this girl, nothing to do with these sexual allegations,” Neary said. “He broke down and said, ‘I didn’t do this,’ on the verge of tears.” Maurice, by contrast, instructed jurors that, as a minor, “the victim has no duty under the law to pull away, to resist, to absent herself from the situation.” “She doesn’t know that because she’s a child and she’s ashamed,” Maurice said. “This is a child, a child who felt shame and guilt,” she told jurors. “The man she trusted stood in front of her pleasuring himself, “splurged” on her breasts. “This child closed her eyes and pretended she was somewhere else.” During the trial, when asked if the girls’ testimony was true, Mendeecees told his defense attorney “No. No way. No, no,” from the stand. If you were Yandy, do you think you would be able to sit in the courtroom and hear all that and still believe your baby daddy was innocent???

Man, some people should really never ever ever ever ever…EVER have children!!!!
SMH @ Liza talking about she don’t look like Khloe, Khloe looks like her! Anyway, apparently Liza isn’t impressed with Khloe as a stepmom either. Via RadarOnline reports : Lamar Odom’s ex-girlfriend and baby mama, Liza Morales doesn’t exactly give his wife Khloe Kardashian a ringing endorsement when it comes to the reality star’s skills as a step-parent. “I don’t know if she’s good maternally, I don’t know,” said Morales, whose two kids with the L.A. Clippers forward have spent lots of time with their step-mom, who has desperately been trying to get pregnant since her wedding three years ago. “As long as my kids are good, I’m good,” Morales told Starter Wives Confidential. “As long as my kids are taken care of and I haven’t heard anything negative, then I’m good.” Asked about her striking resemblance to the youngest of the three Kardashian sisters, Liza said, “I’m 100 percent Puerto Rican, and I was here first. “I was here first, so she has a resemblance to me. I don’t see it. We both have dark hair. We both have a cherub face. I don’t think we look alike, but I have heard it. Imitation is a form of flattery!” Also in the chat, Liza shared that her relationship with the hoops star crumbled after their third child, son Jayden, tragically died of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome in 2006 at just 6 months old. She went on to claim that Odom refused to open up about their heartbreaking loss, they grew distant and he eventually upped and left. “Who abandons their lady?” she asked. Liza can be seen on Starter Wives Confidential, which airs Tuesdays on TLC at 9/8c. We like Liza, but we like Khloe too. And they do look alike — regardless of who was first. This interview comes off a little bit catty but it could have been much worse, riiiiiight?

Not to mention how they routinely would drive 600 miles just to pop up unannounced on campus! Talk about the epitome of bad parents ! Via RadarOnline reports : Aubrey Ireland, a 21-year-old music theater major at University of Cincinnati’s College-Conservatory of Music, convinced a judge to sign a TRO against David and Julie Ireland, claiming that they stalked her, accused her of using illegal drugs, promiscuity and suffering from emotional woes. Despite their daughter routinely making the dean’s list, the overly protective pair would regularly make the 600 mile drive from Kansas to Ohio to check up on her unannounced at school and informed her department head she had mental issues that could force them to go to court to have her treated. “It’s just been really embarrassing and upsetting to have my parents come to my university when I’m a grown adult and just basically slander my name and follow me around,” Aubrey said in an October 9 court hearing. The Irelands even went so far as to spy on her by installing monitoring software on her laptop and cellphone so that they could read her messages and know exactly who she called or texted. It was “like I was a dog with a collar on,” she said. The school clearly took the threat seriously and even went so far as to hire special security guards to keep the talented musician’s “helicopter” parents out of her performances, and when the Ireland’s stopped paying her tuition because she’d cut off all contact with them, the school gave her a full scholarship for her final year. Finally Aubrey could take no more, and took legal action to keep them away and the judge finally granted the stalking order stating they must stay at least 500 feet away and have no contact with her until September 2013. “I never wanted this to happen, that’s the last thing I wanted,” she told ABCNews.com. “But I wasn’t in control of my life at all anymore. I knew that they were holding me back emotionally, mentally, and professionally and that it got to the point where that was basically my last option.” However, her mom Julie still doesn’t think there is a problem. “We’re not bothering her.” We’ve heard of overbearing parents but these folks take the cake!

This case is so sad. Prosecutors are now adding kidnapping and murder charges against Brenda Stokes Wilson, the woman last seen with Jade Morris . Via NYDailyNews reports : Blood was found inside a car borrowed by a Las Vegas Strip card dealer last seen with a missing 10-year-old girl and later arrested in the razor blade slashing of a co-worker at the posh Bellagio resort, a prosecutor said Friday. Brenda Stokes Wilson was identified in court Friday as the prime suspect in the slaying. “It’s no secret the defendant is the suspect in the murder of 10-year-old Jade Morris,” prosecutor Robert Daskas said as he convinced Senior Clark County District Court Judge Joseph Bonaventure to increase Wilson’s bail from $60,000 to $600,000 pending the filing of kidnapping and murder charges. Later Friday, Clark County coroner’s officials identified the body found Thursday as that of the girl, Jade Morris. Officials say she died of multiple stab wounds. The girl was last seen Dec. 21 with Wilson, who’d picked her up to go Christmas shopping. Family members say Jade had a close relationship with Wilson, who used to date her father. Wilson, 50, was arrested later that night after she was wrestled to the ground with razors in each hand following a face-slashing attack on a female co-worker, Joyce Rhone, at the Bellagio. She appeared in court in that case Friday, when a judge raised her bail to $600,000. Wilson has been jailed on felony battery with a weapon, burglary and mayhem charges that could get her decades in prison. Police said she has offered no help in the search for the missing girl. Murder and kidnapping charges could get her life in prison without parole or the death penalty. SMH what the hell could make you do such a thing to a child who trusted you? Clearly this woman snapped… But now she’s probably going to find out what it feels like to be on the other side of a shank once her fellow inmates get wind of who she is and what she’s done.
