Basketball Wives star Evelyn Lozada is speaking out for the first time since Chad Johnson’s arrest for head-butting her , and she’s not exactly downplaying events, standing by her husband or calling it a misunderstanding. She’s pissed. Evelyn told ET in a statement Tuesday: “It is with great sadness and much trepidation that I release this statement addressing the domestic violence incident that happened this past Saturday.” “I am deeply disappointed that Chad failed to take responsibility for his actions and has made false accusations; it is my sincere hope that he seeks the help he needs.” “Domestic violence is not okay and hopefully my taking a stand will help encourage other women to break their silence as well. I’m grateful to my family, friends and fans for the outpouring of support during this difficult time.” Chad Johnson (formerly Ochocinco), has been charged with domestic battery and cut by the Miami Dolphins . VH1 canceled their reality show as well. Johnson reportedly told police that it was Evelyn Lozada who head butted him, not the reverse, but the 911 call placed by their next door neighbor after the Saturday scuffle certainly does not leave that impression. Listen below:
For the record: no member of The Hollywood Gossip would ever urinate on a member of the opposite sex. We make this important note because Jay Penske – the son of a billionaire, CEO of PMC Media and owner of Deadline.com and Hollywoodlife.com – was arrested early yesterday morning in Massachusetts after allegedly using two women as a urinal. TMZ broke the story: police were called to the Nantucket Yacht Club around 2 a.m. after the women said they approached Jay because he was relieving himself in the parking lot. Upon seeing them nearby, he allegedly turned and sprayed his urine all over one of the ladies’ boots. He’s also accused of shoving these strangers. Penske then tried to run away from the club. The women actually chose NOT to press charges for either of these incidents, but Jay and his brother Mark were arrested on counts of breaking and entering with intent to commit a crime at the Yacht Club. They spent some time in jail and have since been released.
I know that I may or may not have been one of those people encouraging Twilight hottie Ashley Greene to keep working out, I like my women tight, but I think she may have gone too far. Here she is looking at birthday cards or some crap like that, looking a little too skinny in her spandex pants. I mean she still looks really hot, but that booty seems to have completely disappeared. What the hell? Enough with the deep knee bends, I think you’re good. It looks like one sinewy muscle now, she can probably jump really high or break twigs with that thing. She needs to get on the baseball player workout routine, how do their asses get so big? Somebody help her.
Big girls need love too! Some Female Olympians Say They’re Judged More On Looks Than On Athletic Skill We’re thinking Gabby Douglas would agree with this gripe right about now… American weightlifter Holley Mangold tips the scales at 346 pounds (157 kilograms) and she is proud of being the heaviest woman at the London Olympics. Mangold, 22, who competed in the women’s 75 kilogram-plus division, is one of growing number of women athletes speaking out at their frustration with the public scrutiny of their body size and image rather than their fitness and skills. At the 2012 Olympics, a list of top female athletes have hit back at critics who have called them fat including British heptathlon champion Jessica Ennis, Australian swimmer Liesel Jones, and the Brazilian women’s soccer team. British weightlifter Zoe Smith won fans when she hit back at attacks on Twitter saying she looked like a “lesbian” and a “bloke”, addressing her critics as “chauvinistic, pigheaded blokes who feel emasculated (as) we .. are stronger than them”. The Women’s Sport and Fitness Foundation (WSFF), a UK charity aiming to get more women into sport to build self-esteem and confidence, said only 12 percent of British girls at age 14 were doing enough exercise to meet recommended guidelines. WSFF Chief Executive Sue Tibballs said their research found negative body image was consistently cited as a barrier for girls participating in exercise as popular culture gave out the message it was more important to be thin than fit. Quite interesting that weightlifting often requires these women to be this size…..and then they are criticized for it. Source Image via Wenn
Andy Murray of Great Britain won an Olympic gold medal for the host country in tennis on Sunday, stunning top-ranked Roger Federer in straight sets. The victory marked a career breakthrough for the 25-year-old Murray, who had lost all four of his previous Grand Slam finals, three against Federer. Redemption came in the form of a 6-2, 6-1, 6-4 blowout. Murray, who lost to Federer just last month in his bid to become the UK’s first Wimbledon champion in 76 years, dominated him on the same court today. “I’ve had a lot of tough losses in my career,” the pride of Dunblane, Scotland said. “This is the best way to come back from the Wimbledon final.” “I’ll never, ever forget it.” For 17-time Grand Slam winner Federer, the loss marked a surprising disappointment as he has now failed to win singles gold in four Olympics. “He was much better than I was today,” said the Switzerland native, as classy an athlete as there is in any sport. “Still I’m very happy with the silver.” Murray won nine straight games spanning the first two sets to take control, breaking Federer’s serve an unheard of four times in a row at one point. He credited his inspired play to the raucous crowd support he received from British fans, who cheered their hero’s every shot en route to gold. America’s Serena Williams won the women’s gold medal Saturday.
Serena Williams Wins Olympic Gold Medal For Women’s Singles Tennis And another win for Serena Williams ! Homegirl killed it in the Olympics final Saturday against Maria Sharapova, crushing the Russian on the world stage. Serena Williams became only the second woman to complete a career Golden Slam, winning the most lopsided women’s final in Olympic history Saturday by beating Maria Sharapova 6-0, 6-1. The victory completed a remarkable run of domination by the No. 4-seeded Williams, who lost only 17 games in six matches en route to her first singles gold medal. She went 13-0 this summer at the All England Club, where she won her fifth Wimbledon title a month ago. The career Golden Slam was first achieved by Steffi Graf, who did it when she won at the Olympics in 1988 after sweeping all four major titles. Williams can add the gold medal to her 14 Grand Slam singles championships, the most of any active woman. And she’s not done in London. Williams and her sister Venus, pursuing their third gold in doubles, were scheduled to play in the semifinals later Saturday. It took the No. 3-seeded Sharapova 45 minutes to win a game, and by then she trailed 6-0, 3-0. Williams dominated with her serve and repeatedly blasted winners from the baseline, taking a big swing with almost every stroke despite gusty conditions on Centre Court. The wind was so strong it blew the U.S. flag off its pole during the medal ceremony. When Sharapova wasn’t lunging or whiffing as the ball whizzed past, she was caught off-balance trying to block back shots at her feet. Williams finished with 10 aces, 24 winners and only seven unforced errors. Sharapova completed a career Grand Slam in June by winning the French Open, but Williams beat her for the eighth consecutive time. The most one-sided previous women’s final was in 1920, when Suzanne Lenglen of France beat Dorothy Holman of Britain 6-3, 6-0. When Williams closed out the victory with her 60th ace of the tournament, she let out a long scream. After shaking hands with Sharapova, Williams hopped a dozen times on the grass she loves, waved and then hopped some more. Williams was still jumping about as she put on her Team USA jacket for the medal ceremony. Then she began to dance. We love it that she busted out the cripwalk… Congrats Serena! Black girls are rocking the Olympics BIGTIME. Peep her dance below: Gotta love the GIF! Source GettyImages
This 50 Shades of Grey movie is playing out in a very interesting way. Supposedly it’s the sexiest thing since naked women with sliced bread, but hot young starlet after hot young starlet has had her name publicly associated with the project, only to deny any involvement. Elizabeth Olsen , at least, has a good reason. The Martha Marcy May Marlene (2011) star says she doesn’t want to be in the 50 Shades movie not because it’s too racy, but because it’s lame. Forget “mommy porn” and just watch porn porn, she says: ” All of a sudden, this book has become a sensation because the women reading it haven’t had access to this kind of thing before. I was talking to a guy who was making a joke about it, saying, ‘Clearly, these women just need to watch porn’. In a way, he’s right. ” So don’t take it from us, take it from Elizabeth Olsen — watching Mr. Skin’s Horny Hot Hardcore Clips playlist is good for you, so click away, ladies (and gents)!
Dear Bossip , I’ve been in a relationship with my fiancé for 2 years now and I am absolutely miserable! I’ve known him for almost 20 years and always knew him to be such a sweet guy. I actually thought I was too wild for him. After we reconnected, he pursued me heavily and promised me he would be the man I’ve been searching for all this time. We dated for 8 months in a long distance relationship, but we saw each other at least twice a month and talked every day. He eventually moved to the city I live in because he could easily find a job here in his line of work, and my daughter is in high school. We agreed to split the bills 50/50, as we kept our own separate bank accounts. I have YET to receive half of the bill money from him because he ALWAYS says he doesn’t have money. He’s got to go visit his mother, buy a TV for his mother, put up a ceiling fan for his mother…the list goes on and on. AND, keep in mind, his mother lives in another state! He gets upset with me for not wanting to go with him every time he goes to visit her, but I talk to her on the phone every week and listen to him talk about her every day. He has no problem with me paying for every meal, paying all the bills and keeping the gas tank full. I’m just so embarrassed to go anywhere because he NEVER offers to pick up the tab. He always tells me that he doesn’t have any money, but he buys clothes every other week. I arch my own eyebrows, do my own hair, and don’t shop for myself basically because between paying all the bills and taking care of the household needs and kids, there’s not a lot left. He seems to be fine with the idea that I do nothing for myself. When he proposed to me, he told me that he had his finances in order and that we were going to be able to save and have the things we had talked about having for our future. None of the things he promised have taken place yet and I’m just miserable living with this man who puts everything before me or our relationship. The five kids he has doesn’t even cause problems because he’s even stingy with them, not wanting to take them anywhere when they come visit because he says he doesn’t have the money. I just don’t like the man he is and can’t believe that after 20 years, this is who he is! Please help…….. Sick AND Tired Dear Ms. Sick AND Tired , Welp, I don’t know what you’re complaining for. It’s two years in and you haven’t done anything about it, and he continues to live off you and your income. He continues to spend on his mother, and save his money, yet, the lie, yes THE LIE he told you that you were going to split the bills 50/50 meant that you would continue to pay the bills at your house, and he’d pay the bills at his momma house. But, err, uhm, a man who is running up behind his momma all the damn time, and spending more time with her than his woman, well, you can forget about him ever being solely yours and completely with you. He belongs to his momma, and you only inherited a boy. You are his second momma. You’re basically taking care of him. Think about it: You feed him. You clean up behind him. You take care of him. You nurture him. You scold him. You baby him. You treat him just like he wants to be treated, and he’ll never be a man because you and his momma continue to treat him like he’s some freaking little a** boy! He’s not going to change, and he’s not going to ever be a man because he will always have his momma, and he will always find a woman who will be his second momma. And, if you’re sick and tired, then the next time he has to rush home to his momma and fix something, or give her something, then you tell him, “You stay your a** with your momma. You go live with her. You let her continue to take care of you. It’s obvious she’s your woman. So, go be with your woman!” And, you pack all his –ish, ship it to him, and change your number and the locks on your door. Why do you keep putting up with this grown little boy who can’t even take care of you and the household? Honey, when you realized that he wasn’t taking care of his five children that should have set off the bells in your head. His own kids won’t even ask him for anything because he doesn’t spend anything on them. SMDH! That’s sad. But, I want to know when he promised you that he would be the man you’d been searching for, what man exactly was he referring to? Did he give you an outlined description? Did he break it down and tell you instead of showing you? Yes, that’s right, he didn’t show you, he told you what you wanted to hear. As Drake so eloquently rapped, “You hate the fact that you bought the dream that they sold you.” No man should be living off his woman and he got a job. No man who promises to marry you and make a family with you should not be in a position whereas he can’t take care of his family. And, no man should be putting his momma before his soon-to-be wife, or his wife. People will tell you what you want to hear, especially if they can see desperation, desire, and a yearning in your eyes, and in your voice. He heard the tiredness in your voice of looking for a man. He saw the loneliness in your eyes. And, he knew exactly what bull-ish lines to feed your hungry a**. Instead of listening to what he was telling you, you should have told that bum bish to show you! So, chalk it up as a lesson learned and move on. Get out of this relationship immediately because once you’re married it will only get worse. Nothing is going to change. He is only going to mooch off of you and take from you until the wheels fall off. Get that trifling bum off your wagon and go get your hair and nails done. Go shopping and buy yourself a new wardrobe. The hell you look like paying all the bills, taking him to dinner, and supporting his grown a** and he got a damn job. I wish I might.

I don’t really know who Cheryl Burke and Kelly Monaco are…I just know they have something to do with Dancing with the Stars…but more importantly…they are rocking out at Malibu beach house I haven’t been invited to because no one likes me – I like to think it is because they fear I will drink all their liquor, lick all their women, snort all their cocaine, and they are probably right, but they are in Malibu, rich and can afford me, and that’s why they should re-work that strategy….I mean sure I’m no Cheryl Burke or Kelly Monaco…writing that just depressed me….I must stop this post now….and burry myself in being irrelevant…because I don’t even know who they are.

Can you name them all? A Gallery Of Women Signed To Or Managed By Roc Nation Roc-A-Fella records turned Roc Nation front runner Jay-z looks to be building an empire full of female artists from every genre of music and corner of the world. The Roc Nation roste r is overflowing with female bangers, either signed to or managed by the label and it’s head honcho Hov. But much like fellow NY record exec extraordinaire Diddy and his here-today-gone-tomrrow line-up of hopeful has-beens and one-hit-wonders over at Bad Boy, female artists under the reign of the throne don’t have the best track record. Check out our gallery of Roc-A-Fella and Roc Nation’s line-up over the years and see who’s still hangin in there and who’s 15 minutes was up long ago. Do you think the Roc ladies are destined for greatness?
