While some celebrities are known for staying out of headlines with their squeaky clean images and good manners, a select few have been in the news for alleged throw-downs. While some have admitted that they let their temper get the best of them and are awaiting consequences for their actions, others are still in denial and denying any wrongdoing. So who’s been accused of knuckling up? Read More At HipHopWired.com

Lil Scrappies: Female Celebrities Accused Of Fighting

It is painful to watch thousands of black women commit suicide everyday. I’m not talking about the quick, shoot yourself, or take some pills kind of suicide; I mean the slow, agonizing death that comes with allowing ourselves to be degraded, objectified, used and abused, then fighting so hard against our own best interest for the sake of members of our own race that mean us no good. I’m speaking in this case about the majority of hip hop (c)rap music that poisons us with every line that says some black girl is a whore, b*tch, trick, sperm receptacle or nappy head. Our souls are stomped upon with every lyric that says dark girls are ugly, light-skin is superior, and thugs are the best that we can get because we’re worthless pieces of trash. And this isn’t said by white people. It’s coming from black men–our supposed brothers in the struggle, and justified by the music media machine, the NAACP and worst of all, we black women support it every day, every minute, and every weekend when we drop it like it’s hot to Lil Wayne, et al. And if ANYONE DARE speak up against it–especially a white chick like Ashley Judd–that person gets pimp-slapped into apologizing for telling the damn truth. In just two lines of her book, All That Is Bitter & Sweet, she says “As far as I’m concerned, most rap and hip-hop music — with its rape culture and insanely abusive lyrics and depictions of girls and women as ‘ho’s’ — is the contemporary soundtrack of misogyny.” Exactly what part of that statement is NOT true? What part of rap/rape culture actually makes black women feel worth a dang? Continued at MadameNoire.com

‘It was the things he did for me as a friend before I had a record deal,’ Snoop tells MTV News. By Steven Roberts Snoop Dogg Photo: MTV News Nate Dogg was laid to rest this past weekend in his hometown of Long Beach, California. Several artists came to pay their last respects, including Dr. Dre, Daz and Kurupt . They gathered alongside the G-Funk crooner’s friends and family on a gloomy Saturday morning. At his funeral, an emotional Snoop Dogg spoke about how the two attended the same high school. “1986, Poly High School, that’s where we connected for the first time,” Snoop reflected on his friend. “We didn’t know each other, but the music connected us. We built a brotherhood, a friendship.” On Monday (March 28), MTV News caught up with Snoop after his appearance on “The Seven,” and he elaborated on what his friendship with Nate meant to him. “As a friend, Nate Dogg, was like a brother, a homey, someone who understood Snoop Dogg, someone who understood the struggle of Snoop Dogg, because he was a part of the struggle of Snoop Dogg. We created a group, 213: me, him and Warren G, back in the late ’80s that spawned our careers.” The rapper and the crooner collaborated frequently throughout their careers, recording G-Funk hits like “It Ain’t No Fun” and “Bitch Please,” but for Snoop it was all about the time they spent together coming up. “His friendship meant so much to me, because it was more about before we made records, as opposed to when people [saw] us in the limelight. It was the things he did for me as a friend before I had a record deal. The belief he had in me as an artist, as a homey, and just staying down and sticking to the rules of the game. That’s what made Nate so genuine.” Related Videos Remembering Nate Dogg Related Photos Snoop Dogg Tweetpics: The Tattooed Tribute To Nate Dogg Nate Dogg: A Life In Photos Related Artists Snoop Dogg Nate Dogg

It was on the first day of her job as co-host of Bravo’s upcoming reality show Going Platinum that Jewel received some unexpected, happy news : She’s pregnant! “I took a pregnancy test and it was positive!” the singer remembers. “It was so hard to keep it a secret. I was worried I’d start throwing up on set.” Jewel and Ty Murray are expecting! Now in her second trimester, Jewel and her husband, rodeo star Ty Murray, are finally ready to share their happy news – and fans are happy to hear it. The couple, who wed in the Bahamas in 2008, and who both competed on Dancing With the Stars , had been trying to have a baby for two years. “I’ve always been a workaholic, so I had to learn how to slow down, to take care of myself in a different way,” Jewel says of her struggle to conceive. “I’m trying to be in the moment and really enjoy my pregnancy,” says the singer, who we wish only the very best, along with her husband!

While the entire nation is debating about taxes (complete distraction from the root of the nation's real economic problems), look who is getting even MORE cash from the feckless American debt slaves. America's foreign policy, dominated by Zionists, as stated by Helen Thomas and many others, is destroying the economy. *** The House of Representatives earlier this week approved a significant increase in the level of military aid to Israel, pushing the level to $3 billion in flat military aid, with an additional $205 million set aside for a short range rocket system. Both of the increases were already planned as part of a memorandum of understanding between the United States and Israel, but were formally approved as part of the 212-206 vote in the House on Wednesday. Rep. Steve Rothman (D – NJ) said the increase in aid to Israel “sends a strong message to both our enemies and allies,” but also comes at a time when the US has only just abandoned the Israeli peace process over its inability to convince Israel to agree to even a short term freeze. added by: maasanova

Aaron Huey's effort to photograph poverty in America led him to the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, where the struggle of the native Lakota people — appalling, and largely ignored — compelled him to refocus. Five years of work later, his haunting photos intertwine with a shocking history lesson in this bold, courageous talk from TEDxDU. added by: treewolf39
