Alicia Keys, whose whiny tune “No One” gives me massive diarrhea every time I hear it, told Blender magazine, “‘Gangsta rap’ was a ploy to convince black people to kill each other. ‘Gangsta rap’ didn’t exist.” She also said that the feud between Tupac Shakur and Notorious B.I.G. was fueled “by the government and the media, to stop another great black leader from existing.”
OMG, 50 Cent and T-Pain better watch ouuuut! Thanks the gods Alicia Keys busted wide open this conspiracy against black leaders who can rhyme.
I always knew Alicia Keys can’t pick songs, has bad skin and the lower body shape of a rhinoceros. But I never thought she was CRAZY.

15 name-brand architects were given carte blanche to each create an ultimate cottage, sparing no absurdity (helicopters, interior waterfalls) or expense.
My fav is the 1968 Sikorsky HH37 Sea King Pelican helicopter refashioned into a bar and entertainment center for the Helicopter Cottage (pictured).

Marilyn Monroe Sex Film Surfaces
So juicy .. a copy of a sex film featuring the lovely Marilyn Monroe before her rise to fame has been sold to a New York businessman for $1.5 million.
The 15 minutes of black and white 16mm film, made in the 1950s, features Monroe performing a sex act on an unidentified man.
Then-FBI agent J. Edgar Hoover had his agents spend two weeks researching it to try to prove that the sex partner in the movie was either President John F. Kennedy or Sen. Robert F. Kennedy. Um, I bet ..
‘Harry Potter Lexicon’ Author Cries On Stand
The author of a Harry Potter encyclopedia cried as he told a New York court about his devotion to the series of books about the boy wizard and denied accusations by JK Rowling that he plagiarised her work.
Rowling and Warner Brothers are suing independent US publisher RDR Books, which plans to publish The Harry Potter Lexicon - a 400 page reference book written by Steve Vander Ark.
Rowling, 42, whose seven Harry Potter books have sold around 400 million copies, told the court on Monday that Vander Ark’s plans for an unofficial encyclopedic Harry Potter companion book and the stress of the lawsuit had stifled her creativity and caused her to stop work on a new novel. (yeah sure JK, I believe they call that PMS).
Today Vander Ark, 50, said his Potter encyclopedia was merely a companion reference guide to help fans and readers and was intended to celebrate Rowling’s work.
With Rowling and her lawyers sitting directly in front of him, Vander Ark broke down in tears after more than three hours on the witness stand. He was asked if he still thought of himself as part of the Harry Potter fan club community.
“I do,” he said, trembling with tears and struggling to continue speaking.
“It’s been difficult because there’s been a lot of criticism, obviously, but … it has been an important part of my life for the last nine years or so.”
Rowling has called Vander Ark’s book, due to be published last November, “sloppy, lazy” work compared with other Harry Potter companion books already published.
The trial continues.
Hey J.K. - You have more than $4,500,000,000 dollars. Why don’t you pick on someone your own size.
