No Charles, you are not a role model. During a break from commentating on the Atlanta Hawks / Miami Heat game at Philips Arena, NBA vet and Weight Watchers spokesman Charles Barkley got a little too honest. Most likely unaware that his mic and the camera was still on, Barkley told his colleagues about how motivated he is to stick with the Weight Watchers regiment. He also took a few shots at the Atlanta Hawks. “ I’ve been on Weight Watchers three months, ” he said “I have to lose two pounds a week. I’m at 38 pounds now. They come and weigh me every two weeks. I ain’t never missed a weigh-in. Never going to. I’m feeling much better. But I ain’t giving away no money… I’m not giving away no free money. I thought this was the greatest scam going— getting paid for watching sports — this Weight Watchers thing is a bigger scam.” [ SOURCE ] RELATED POSTS: Top 10 Players Never To Win An NBA Title 5 Crazy Athlete Commercials (The Good, The Bad, and The Funny)

Deion Sanders seems very calm about his current divorce situation. The NFL great called into Dallas K104 FM to clarify what exactly is going on in the Sanders household and to do some much needed damage control! Sanders does admit that he and Pilar still live under the same roof, which is mostly for the children, and claims that they are cordial. Deion’s daughter Deiondra recently lashed out against Pilar on Twitter, saying that she was lying about several things including that she didn’t know about the divorce. “I apologize for my daughter,” Deion said. “She loves her father and she felt like I was being abused and misused and she lashed out, which she’s sorry for. She wanted to get a lot of things out of her that’s been inside of her. But it’s unfortunate that that really magnified the situation.” He went on to talk about the standing relationship between he and his soon to be ex-wife: “The thing about it….Pilar and I are cool. I mean we’re cool. When I say cool, we’re living under the same roof. That’s true. First of all, I’m very calm. I’m not a yeller or screamer and I’m not even upset. It’s just another chapter in your life where you have to move on. And Pilar is cool too. And the home is large enough, but you gotta understand we love the babies. I love my babies and I’m a father. It’s cool until the situation is worked out. That’s why you can’t believe what you read because if it was as ignorant as people would speculate it’s no way to be compatible. But I see her every morning. And I say, ‘What’s up?, What’s up, girl?’ It really is like that. That’s why you can’t believe everything.” RELATED: Deion Sander’s Daughter Deiondra Goes Off On Pilar Sanders!

As we previously reported, Tameka asked a Georgia court last month for full custody of their two sons, claiming that Usher has not lived up to their joint custody agreement. Tameka claims that the Grammy Award-winning Atlanta singer failed to get her permission to travel with their kids and hired nannies without her approval.

Usher also claims that he never canceled his ex-wife’s Saks 5th Avenue credit card as she has alleged. Usher and Tameka currently share joint physical custody of their kids.

Several unconfirmed reports are saying that Beyonce is in labor and has checked into a New York hospital. According to the UK Daily Mail : Beyoncé is said to be moments away from giving birth to her first child. And the appearance of the star’s mother Tina, 57, sister Solange, 25, and nephew Julez in the city has certainly added weight to the report. Nurses at New York’s St Luke’s Roosevelt hospital have allegedly been told to prepare the labour suite for the arrival of a celebrity VIP. But the New York Post reported that Beyonce was spotted this past weekend during holiday party-hopping: While St. Luke’s Hospital was reportedly on high alert last night, piquing suspicion that Beyoncé might give birth there, the pregnant singer apparently stopped by one more party before she went into labor. On Friday, she and husband Jay-Z were spotted at SoHo hot spot W.i.P. for a bash celebrating youth arts program Creation Nation and its Creators Club, which will meet weekly in the space. Beyoncé — who reports say is nine months pregnant — and Jay-Z were spotted sitting tight in a VIP booth and fielding greetings from friends. Beyonce has publicly announced that her baby is due in February. But reports have speculated that the diva might be due as soon as this month after she’d said during a video shoot in late September that she was then six months pregnant.
