After Drake dumped his management team, it is now reported that he’s trying to leave Lil Wayne’s Young Money to join Jay-Z’s Roc Nation. If the rumors are true, it’s goin’ down! Drake was repped by Hip Hop Since 1976, the same team that manages Lil Wayne. Drizzy also detached himself from J Prince, the Houston executive who helped him link up with YMCMB, and parted ways with his agent ICM to join the William Morris Agency. This rumor sounds crazy since Drake has done so well with Young Money. But the tweet below from Lil Wayne makes it seem like he might be talking to Drake if this rumor is true, although why would Weezy be calling Drake “sweetheart?” Get the rest of the story at MTO .

The court battle between Usher and his ex-wife Tameka Foster is heating up. The drama started when Usher wanted to take their sons with him on tour and Tameka said no. He then tried to get sole custody. She followed up with a motion last week for him to be tested for drugs so she could get sole custody. According to Tameka, when he was sick onstage in Germany and had to stop the show, he was “in delirium” and not sick as he claimed. She also alleges that back in 2008 she found “mysterious pills” in his jeans pockets and she believes he gets high. Tameka said: “I believe he gets high. And if he doesn’t then he’d take the drug test, correct?” Usher filed a response to Foster’s allegations last week, calling Foster’s drug test request “frivolous and unfounded,” and intended to “harass and embarrass” the singer. So we’re assuming that Usher did not pee in the cup!

It looks like Jay-Z and Kanye West will have to destroy a new line of cars in their next video.

It is reported that only 200 Maybachs were sold last year at the starting price of $375,250.

Gloria Govan and Matt Barnes’ break-up may have come as a surprise to the viewers of “Basketball Wives,” but according to Matt, the split was a long time coming. Though Gloria has implied that the reason the two broke up is because of his relationship with Eva Longoria , Matt is calling her bluff. He took to Twitter before Thanksgiving to finally set the story straight: “In May, Gloria & I decided to separate & in the best interest of her career, I foolishly agreed to portray that we were still together for her upcoming season of her show on VH1. As recently as August we decided to revisit a joint statement of our separation, but Gloria asked to delay making our separation public for the interest of her show. It is ironic now how Gloria is trying to manipulate the professional relationship between Eva Longoria & myself as the sole reason for our separation, when she knows we split up in May. The reason why I broke my silence a month ago was because of the on going “affair” she was having with a now former FRIEND of mine..Again, I wish Gloria nothing but the best, & I will continue to keep our beautiful children as my first priority.. Thank you.” She responded via Twitter: “So Matt’s at it again I see… Whatever he feels like he needs to say to justify our separation is on him. Obviously his relationship with Eva is important enough to bash me. So I wish him and her nothing but the best. Ad will continue to focus [on] me and our kids. Happy thanksgiving everyone xoxo.” Ugh, we really hoped that these two would keep it clean. This won’t end pretty. Hopefully, they don’t get the kids involved. ( Meanwhile , Eva Longoria isn’t claiming Matt at all, telling Vanity Fair Spain that she’s still with her boyfriend Eduardo Cruz and is “lucky” to have found him.)

TLC singer T-Boz has filed for bankruptcy. According to TMZ , T-Boz aka Tionne Watkins filed for bankruptcy last month and currently owes collectors $768,642, mostly from mortgages on her $1.2 million house. T-Boz is not a big spender as she takes in $11,700 a month in income, with monthly expenses totaling $8,821. She might have dodged the bankruptcy bullet if she’d been able to collect the child support she claims she’s owed — which according to the docs is $250,000. Things have not been easy for the singer recently, she’s battling Sickle Cell Anemia, along with discovering that she had a brain tumor that she’d been battling for three years.
