Wow on this one: Bears great Shaun Gayle admitted he had a sexual relationship with Marni Yang and that they had sex the night before the murder of his pregnant girlfriend Rhoni Reuter. The admission came during Gayle’s testimony in Yang’s murder trial in Waukegan on Tuesday. Yang is accused of killing Reuter and her unborn child to eliminate her romantic competition. The defense cross-examined Gayle on his relationship with another woman, Monica Kurowska. Gayle first told police he suspected Kurowska in the murder. He said he had an order of protection against her for a series of harassing letters and stalking. Gayle says he was questioned by Deerfield police for 10 hours after the murder. During opening statements on Friday, the defense warned that Yang was a victim too. Attorney William Hedrick told jurors there was no obsession or motive. He said that at the time of the slaying, Gayle was seeing 18 or 19 different women, and he called Yang’s purported confession to the crime a “festival of liars.” Damn, this isn’t a joke, but dude must’ve had that good “D” for these broads (18 or 19 though???) to be going crazy for him like that!!! R.I.P. to Rhoni Reuter and the baby… Source
According to Breitbart TV: “Sen. Tom Coburn (R-OK) appeared on the Hugh Hewitt Show and revealed some startling items in the bipartisan 2012 budget negotiations, including a plan to eliminate the mortgage interest deduction for homes valued higher than $500,000.” So Coburn essentially wants to raise taxes on those who own homes worth more than $500,000?

‘Idol’ puts up biggest non-sports Thursday ratings numbers since 2007. By Gil Kaufman Steven Tyler holds up his swear sign on “American Idol” Photo: FOX Simon who? Perhaps putting to rest any fears that “American Idol” would nosedive without iconic judge Simon Cowell, Thursday night’s first elimination episode of season 10 put up some stellar numbers for the singing competition. On a night when most of the competition on rival networks consisted of reruns (including, count ’em, six episodes in a row of “The Office” on NBC!) after the vaults were emptied last month during sweeps, “Idol” raked in 25 million viewers to win the ratings crown. In fact, the impressive numbers for “Idol” gave Fox the most-watched non-sports Thursday night number of any network over the past four years. The two-hour extravaganza, which not only shaped the top 10 , but also featured six performances by singers vying to score three wild card spots — not to mention the debut of judge Jennifer Lopez’s “On the Floor” music video — was a 29 percent increase of last season’s first elimination night, according to Billboard With an 8.1 rating in the 18 to 49 demo, numbers were also up 13 percent over last Thursday’s “AI” episode. As you might expect, ratings climbed during the pivotal final half-hour of the broadcast, going from 25.96 million between 9 p.m. and 9:30 p.m. to 26.66 million for the final half-hour. The good ratings news bodes well for the start of live competition next week, when new judges Steven Tyler and Jennifer Lopez will have to finally show their stuff during two real-time broadcasts a week after charming viewers during the season’s pre-taped episodes.

‘To walk out of there that day with no handcuffs on,’ Wayne tells MTV News. ‘I was like wow, yeah, I’m gone.’ By Rebecca Thomas, with reporting by Sway Calloway Photo: MTV News On a frigid November morning, Lil Wayne walked out of New York’s Rikers Island last year a free man. And though there would be lavish homecoming parties to attend, a tour-finale concert in Las Vegas, reunions with family and even a marathon recording session in the offing, the New Orleans MC can still remember what struck him most in those first few moments. “Honestly, the first thing that I appreciated when I got out was not having to wear handcuffs,” Wayne told MTV News when we visited the Miami set of his upcoming “6 Foot 7 Foot” video . On the expansive jail facility where Wayne served out an eight-month sentence on an attempted gun possession charge, the Young Money boss discovered that while getting “special” treatment may seem to imply privileges, in fact, his celebrity status created some downsides. Having his wrists shackled as he moved through the prison’s various buildings became a weight, both physical and mental. “That was my first time walking out of there [without handcuffs], ’cause you know I always had to be transferred to one building from another to another just to do certain things, and they had so many special procedures with me,” explained Weezy, who was clad in a gray YMCMB sweatshirt and Chicago Bulls cap when MTV News’ Sway sat with him. “Things they had to do for protocol, so I always had to move here and move there, but everywhere I went I had to be handcuffed because it was this special protocol. “Other inmates didn’t have to be handcuffed when they [were guilty of] the same things,” he added, a look of melancholy flashing across his tattooed eyelids. “But it was this special protocol for me that they had to handcuff me.” Months into his sentence, Wayne called Hot 97’s Funkmaster Flex and said apart from busying himself with the daily routine of incarceration — pawing through piles of mail, listening to sports radio — he was doing serious soul-searching. “Everybody says that you’re here for a reason, and I promise you, Flex, I try to find out that reason every day. I search for it. But I think when I get out, that’ll be the only time I’ll really know the answer.” On the dizzying “6 Foot,” the lead single from his eagerly awaited Tha Carter IV, Wayne cleverly boasts, “I got through that sentence like a subject and a predicate.” But he took a measured tone as he relived the pre-dawn hours of November 4. “To walk out of there that day with no handcuffs on, that was the first thing that caught my attention,” he said. “I was like wow, yeah, I’m gone.” Related Videos MTV First: Lil Wayne’s ‘6 Foot 7 Foot’ Related Artists Lil Wayne

This has gotta be tough on the kid. It isn’t like he sexually assualted someone or committed a crime, just a lil hanky-panky with his girlfriend. Sticking to principles appears to carry a steep cost for the nation’s third-ranked college basketball team. A day after Brigham Young University dismissed center Brandon Davies from the team for violating the school’s strict honor code, the No. 3-ranked Cougars were throttled Wednesday by unranked New Mexico. “The honor code really reflects who we are as a university. It defines us and it does make us different,” BYU spokeswoman Carrie Jenkins told CNN affiliate KSTU-TV. Davies, a 6-9 sophomore from Provo, was the team’s top rebounder and third-leading scorer. He received the Cougars’ Academic Excellence award last season, according to an online profile. BYU had been gunning for a high seed in the upcoming NCAA Tournament, but the team’s fortunes took a tumble with Wednesday night’s 82-64 loss to New Mexico. University officials said Davies admitted violating the honor code at BYU, which is owned and operated by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, also known as the Mormon Church. The honor code requires all faculty, staff and students to: Be honest; Live a chaste and virtuous life; Obey the law and all campus policies; Use clean language; Respect others; Abstain from alcoholic beverages, tobacco, tea, coffee and substance abuse; Participate regularly in church services; Observe dress and grooming standards; Encourage others in their commitment to comply with the honor code. The code forbids homosexual behavior and bars members of the opposite sex from going beyond the lobby of the school’s single-sex dormitories. The dress and grooming standards forbid beards, tattoos and piercings for men and short or form-fitting clothes or bare feet in public for women. The university did not say which part of the code Davies violated, but it did say he had not committed a crime. Davies’ future as a student at BYU and his status for next season have yet to be determined. Ah c’mon give the kid a break! A lil poon-tang ain’t never hurt nobody (long as he wore a Jimmy!) Do you feel that BYU has a right to ask players not to have sex as a condition of playing for the team or going to the school??? Source
Damn playa…we get that you’re not in the game anymore, but you don’t have enough “game” to bag one your own age???? SMH When will they learn??? MOUNT CLEMENS, Mich. — A former Detroit Lions wide receiver who pleaded guilty to a second-degree criminal sexual conduct charge on accusations involving a then-14-year-old girl has been sentenced to spend two to 15 years in prison. Tommie Boyd appeared Thursday in Macomb County Circuit Judge Diane Druzinski’s courtroom. The 39-year-old from Shelby Township entered his plea in January in exchange for authorities dropping several other charges. Police say he grabbed the girl’s buttocks with both hands. The Detroit News reports Druzinski told Boyd he is “probably a parent’s worst nightmare.” Boyd also has to register as a sex offender and be fitted with a tether for the rest of his life, when released. Defense attorney Randy Secontine says his client is “extremely remorseful.” Not as remorseful as he’s gonna be when he gets to the whoscow and them boys start treating him like an underage girl… Source

Serena issued a quick media statement today to make sure her fans knew she’s at home resting following her recent emergency . “Thank you everyone for all of your prayers, concerns, and support,” the star, 29, tells PEOPLE in a statement. “This has been extremely hard, scary, and disappointing. I am doing better, I’m at home now and working with my doctors to keep everything under control.” Williams also says it will be a while before she’s entirely healthy again. “I know I will be okay, but am praying and hoping this will all be behind me soon,” she said. “While I can’t make any promises now on my return [to tennis], I hope to be back by early summer. That said, my main goal is to make sure I get there safely.” Her rep also says in a statement, “Thankfully everything was caught in time. With continued doctor visits to monitor her situation, she is recuperating at home under strict medical supervision.” Glad Serena got the best possible outcome out of this situation. Source
