SMH: Malcolm X’s Daughter Held On $100K Bail For Forgery And Foolishness

A daughter of slain civil rights leader Malcolm X has been extradited to New York City to face charges of identity theft and grand larceny. Malikah Shabazz was held on $100,000 bail after a court appearance Wednesday night in Queens. Shabazz waived extradition from North Carolina, where she was arrested last week on a warrant issued more than a year ago. She is accused of defrauding the widow of one of her father’s former bodyguards out of more than $55,000 in credit card bills. The 45-year-old Shabazz was arrested Feb. 18 after investigators went to her home in western North Carolina on an unrelated matter. That’s when authorities found out about the warrant. Her lawyer says his client denies the charges. Her case has been adjourned to March 15. Source

JWoWW’s Breasts Head North Of The Border

It seems as thought JWoWW’s big breasted North American ‘book’ tour continued with a stop north of the border at some no name Canadian daytime talk show the other day. Normally that would be considered rock bottom, but when you get your start on the Jersey Shore there’s really nowhere to go but up. Anyhow, the good news is she brought along my two favorite things about the crappy show and that’s all I see in these shots. I’d love to stick my face in between those things, but I’m afraid it will stink of self tanner and guido testicles.

Jesus Take The Wheel: Huge Earthquake In New Zealand Kills At Least 65 [PICS]

R.I.P to those who lost their lives. From the looks of the pictures this catastrophe is going to take a very long time to sort out, take a look after the jump. Ironic that something so devilish happened to a city called Christchurch. WELLINGTON, New Zealand — A 6.3-magnitude earthquake rocked the southern New Zealand city of Christchurch Tuesday, killing dozens, collapsing buildings and cracking streets. Prime Minister John Key said at least 65 had died as a result of the disaster and told reporters that the death toll was expected to rise further. “It is a just a scene of utter devastation,” he added. Television footage showed streets strewn with bricks and shattered concrete. Sidewalks and roads were cracked and split, and hundreds of dazed, screaming and crying residents wandered as sirens blared throughout the city. Bodies were being pulled from rubble, others lay in the streets. Water mains burst, causing extensive flooding. New Zealand’s 3 News television station said that by 10:30 p.m. Tuesday local time (4:30 a.m. ET) that there were reports of at least 125 people being rescued. However, it added that Mayor Bob Parker estimated that more than 100 people were still trapped at six different locations with possibly more in individual homes. Parker said earlier that he had been “thrown quite a distance” by the quake. The TV station said the 33rd aftershock hit at 10:18 p.m. local time (4:18 a.m. ET). It was the second quake to hit the city in five months, and New Zealand’s deadliest natural disaster for 80 years. In 1931, a quake in the North Island city of Napier killed 256 people. “We may well be witnessing New Zealand’s darkest day…The death toll I have at the moment is 65 and that may rise,” Key told local TV. “It’s hard to describe. What was a vibrant city a few hours ago has been brought to its knees.”

Blink-182 Might Tour With Kid Cudi, Travis Barker Hints

Blink-182 ‘definitely coming close’ to finishing album, drummer says. By James Montgomery Blink-182’s Mark Hoppus and Tom DeLonge Photo: Cory Schwartz/ Getty Images NORTH HOLLYWOOD, California — On Wednesday, Travis Barker set long-suffering Blink-182 fans’ hearts aflutter when he told MTV News that the band’s new album would finally be finished in “June or July,” effectively ending two-plus years of speculation about the disc, their first since 2003’s self-titled effort. Of course, that announcement was also greeted with a fair amount of skepticism (sample joke: “June or July … of what year?”), but, from the sound of things, Blink might actually be in the home-stretch, as Barker explained. “Here’s the thought process for the album,” he said. “Build 20 songs, pick 12 we love, and then concentrate on those 12 songs until they’re done, and then our album’s finished … and it’s definitely coming close.” And all of that begs the question: Just what will the new Blink album sound like? We’ve already heard it described as “weird” and “expansive” , but Barker — who on March 15 will release his long-in-the-works solo album, Give the Drummer Some — was willing to go one step further. To him, the album sounds like the logical extension of everything Blink did on their 2003 album, not to mention all they’ve done since. “I think it’s where you would think Blink would be right now,” he said, “if you left off with our last album with us, and you follow each of our careers, and you know what we’ve done [since].” As if all that chatter about the new album wasn’t enough to get Blink fans excited, Barker had one more bit of information: There’s probably going to be a tour in 2011. “We are talking about taking Kid Cudi out for an amazing tour we may have planned for later this year,” he revealed with a smile.

Arcade Fire Take Home Album Of The Year Grammy

Indie-rock band bests heavyweights like Lady Gaga and Eminem in the show’s final category. By Ryan J. Downey Arcade Fire win Album of the Year at 2011 Grammy Awards Photo: Getty Images Who says the Grammys reward nothing but pop music? Critical darlings Arcade Fire nabbed the top prize for Album of the Year at the 53rd annual Grammy Awards on Sunday night. The Canadian indie rock group’s The Suburbs bested major label albums from megastars Eminem, Katy Perry and Lady Gaga, whose media campaigns were as relentless as their radio hits were ubiquitous. The category was rounded out by Lady Antebellum , huge stars in the world of country and multiple Grammy nominees in their own right. Check out photos of Arcade Fire’s performance and more! Arcade Fire’s Album of the Year win was something of an upset, although MTV News’ own James Montgomery did sort of call it for them. The band’s Grammy heat was part of a wave that showed how much traction indie releases have gained with Grammy voters in recent years. The Suburbs was released by Merge Records, the independent label based in Durham, North Carolina, that has been home to underground acts like Lou Barlow, The Clientele, Superchunk and Neutral Milk Hotel. In addition to performing, Arcade Fire were up for three Grammys this year. On Sunday night in Los Angeles, groups like Mumford & Sons, Florence and the Machine, Black Keys, Vampire Weekend, Band of Horses and Broken Bells all joined Arcade Fire in battle with more mainstream nominees like Justin Bieber and Eminem. The Suburbs has sold roughly 400,000 copies, making it a smash for an indie label, particularly in the age of downloading. Arcade Fire’s Funeral (2005) and Neon Bible (2008) were both nominated for Best Alternative Music Album. The Montreal, Canada-based multi-instrumental band is led by husband-and-wife team Win Butler and R

Travis Barker Says Solo Album Helped Turn Tragedies ‘Into Strengths’

Give the Drummer Some, his long-in-the-works solo album, is finally due March 15. By James Montgomery, with reporting by Sway Calloway Travis Barker Photo: MTV News NORTH HOLLYWOOD, California — It’s not exactly breaking news to say that Travis Barker has been working on his solo album for a while now ( at least two years , by our count), nor is it much of a stretch to say that, in the time he’s been working on it, a lot has happened in his life, both good and really, really bad. From the plane crash that took the life of longtime friends “Lil'” Chris Baker and Charles “Che” Still in 2008 to the death of collaborator Adam “DJ AM” Goldstein the following year, Barker has been forced to endure more than his fair share of hardships along the way, but through it all, he’s maintained focus on just one goal: finishing that album. And, at long last, he has. On March 15, his Give the Drummer Some album will finally see the light of day, and when MTV News paid Barker a visit in his NoHo studio, he was definitely in the mood to celebrate — in his own, understated way. “It’s a big accomplishment for me,” he told MTV News. “It’s something that’s been in the making for a couple years now, and there’s been lots of bumps in the road along the way.” And, in a lot of ways, the album — which features head-whirling contributions by everyone from Tom Morello, Raekwon and the RZA (on the track “Carry It” ) to the Transplants and Slash (on “Saturday Night”), not to mention Lil Wayne, Rick Ross, Game and Swizz Beatz on the proper first single, “Can a Drummer Get Some?” — helped him overcome the loss of his close friends and saved his life too. “I had to transfer those [tragedies] into strengths and just push through,” Barker said. “Once I started coming in here, little by little, making my way into the studio, and I could actually make music again, and I was able to think, be in the studio environment, be productive, that was a big accomplishment, and, you know, from getting out of the hospital and learning how to walk and survive without being on 20 medications and stuff … I never envisioned it being OK again. So it was a big thing for me, and knocking this album out was the number-one priority on my list.” Which is why, when he talks about the album, he does so in relatively hushed tones. It’s been a long voyage getting to this point, but finally, Barker has made it. And he definitely considers himself blessed to have done so. “Everyone on the album is someone I was blessed to come in contact at one point or another in my life,” he said. “That’s a pretty good way to describe how I feel about it too.” What are you expecting from Travis Barker’s album?

Philadelphia One-Time Looking For Tranny “Black Madam” Whose Responsible For British Student Butt Implants Death

This story gets crazier and crazier as more details are revealed: Police are hunting a transgender hip-hop singer who calls herself ‘Black Madam’ on suspicion of killing Claudia Aderotimi with a botched bottom implant. The sex swap woman, also known as Padge -Victoria Windslowe, 41,is the prime suspect in the death of the 20 year old student. Detectives searched Windslowe’s home in an upmarket suburb of Philadelphia after being given her name by Aderotimi’s cousin who acted as fixer in the botched op. Investigators searched her home looking for medical supplies, such as syringes, Krazy Glue or silicone that might link her to the crime, according to a police affidavit. They also interviewed a man who identified himself as her boyfriend, investigators said. The document states: ‘There is sufficient probable cause to search the residence for any medical supplies, gauze, syringes, krazy glue. silicone, bandages, United States Currency, proof of residence, vehicle information.’ Windslowe, who has several aliases, has gone on the run after learning her ‘patient’ died from the botched injection aimed at giving her a curvier rear. The police warrant also names one of Claudia’s friends who was with her when the fatal injection was administered in a budget hotel room. She was named as Theresa Gyamfi, 20, and she is referred to as witness No 1 in the affidavit. Police said that Windslowe and her fixer both used fake to names in an attempt to cover their tracks. Windslowe was also known by the name of Lillian and Vicky. Police said Miss Aderotimi, of Hackney, East London, travelled to Philadelphia with three friends on Saturday, before the silicone injections were administered in her buttocks at the Hampton Inn on Monday. After suffering chest pains and breathing problems she was rushed to hospital but was pronounced dead shortly after. One friend had a similar cosmetic procedure but was not taken to hospital, according to police. Police Lieutenant John Walker said investigators have cleared a New Jersey woman who helped arrange the procedures, but was not in the hotel room when Miss Aderotimi and a friend received their injections. She is now being considered as a witness in the case.Mr Djimo, of Tottenham, North London, revealed Miss Aderotimi was studying at Thames Valley University and also in a girl group called The Chocolatez. They described themselves as ‘a multi-talented group of three African girls’ whose talents include dancing, singing, modelling and acting. ‘Claudia wanted to be a superstar. She had big dreams,” added Mr Djimo. ‘Her death is absolutely devastating.’ Miss Aderotimi had her first silicone injections in November, but it is unknown if they were carried out illegally. Mr Djimo added: ‘It sounded like it cost a lot so I assumed it was all done properly. She didn’t need it. She was a pretty girl, anyone could see that. ‘But she told me having the injections made her feel better about herself. Every girl has something they don’t like about their looks and she mentioned her bum a few times. ‘The industry she was trying to break into is competitive and dominated by US stars. And over there the size of your bum is extremely important.’ Liquid silicone is sought on the black market by women seeking to enhance their figures, even though it is not approved for cosmetic injections. It was not known what substance was used on the women at the hotel. This story is super crazy and super suspect. Why in the f*ck would anyone travel all the way from London to Philly to get butt implants from a tranny at the Hampton Inn? Source
