Chris Brown's return performance at Powerhouse

Tuesday October 27th marked Chris Brown's return to the stage after months since he beat the shit out of Rihanna. Brown had an electrifying performance at powerhouse singing some new songs as well as his older hits like “Wall 2 Wall”, “Gimme That” & “Take You Down” to name a few. I still don’t care too much for Brown as a person but I must admit that boy got it going on. The beginning gives me a slight Michael Jackson tease but his set was very entertaining. I’m actually looking forward for his new album to come out. He’s very talented. I can only speak for myself when I say that I will not let what goes on in his personal life effect how I feel about his music or how his is as a performer. I mean shit look at R. Kelly. We all knew it was that nigga in the video but we still jam to his music old & new. Ya’ll better act like you know. Chris Brown is back baby!!

Check out the video of his performance below....

Balloon Boy Incident a 'Hoax'

According to TMZ, Larimer County Sheriff Jim Alderden says they have evidence that the runaway balloon incident was a "hoax" and a "publicity stunt" to promote a reality show

Alderden says they plan on filing charges against Richard and Mayumi Heene soon -- one of which would be contributing to the delinquency of a minor, which is a felony. The other charges could be conspiracy, false reporting and attempt to influence an officer.


The most significant charges they face could result in a maximum sentence of six years in prison and a $500,000 fine.

The kids will probably not face charges, Alderden says, because of their age. Alderden says Child Protective Servics has been notified and will be conducting an investigation.

Alderden says the hoax was a "planned event for two weeks."

Alderden said that if the charges do go forward, they will seek restitution for all the expenses the county incurred. He doesn't believe anyone would serve jail time because of the overcrowding situtation in Colorado and because it would be their first offense.

He did not set a time frame for when arrests would be made.

The sheriff also said this about Richard Heene: "His education level is only high school ... he may be nutty, but he's not a professor."

How To Jelq

About The Jelq

According to some websites, the jelqing technique originated in the Middle East and was allegedly used by Arabic men to enlarge their penises to over 20 inches in length! It's unlikely that these stories are true and in fact some people say that jelqing is a hoax. Whatever the truth of the matter, jelqing seems to have become the most common term used to describe a range of penis stretching, milking and massaging techniques that over time will enlarge the penis.


The jelq exercise will enlarge both girth and the length of the penis. The purpose of the jelq exercise is to force more blood into the corpora cavernosa (the spongy tissue that makes up the penis). This is achieved by using a "milking" technique on the penis. This milking will expand and stretch the cell walls of the corpora cavernosa to allow larger quantities of blood to enter the penis. Jelqing will increase the size of both the flaccid and erect penis, but most markedly in the erect penis. Jelqing exercises are like regular exercises and need to be carried out on a daily basis. Results from using the jelq can be seen in increases in penis size after only a month and more pronounced results can be seen in penis length and penis girth after several months.



Before You Start Jelqing

Measuring Your Penis

It's a good idea to keep a diary of your jelqing efforts. This should also contain measurements of your penis on a weekly basis. You can certainly measure and record your flaccid penis size but this can vary so the really important important measurements to take are your erect meaurements. Record both your erect penis length and your erect penis girth. Different people recommend all sorts of different ways to measure your penis. It really doesn't matter how you do it AS LONG AS YOU DO IT CONSISTENTLY! That is, make sure you measure it the same way each week.


The Jelqing Warm Up

Jelqing is just like any other exercise - you need to warm-up before starting!

1- Massage you penis until you are semi-tumescent (partial erection).

2- In warm water, soak a washcloth.
3- Wrap the washcloth around your penis for three minutes.
4- Repeat above warm-wrap another three times


An alternative to the above jelqing warm-up is to simply massage and stroke your semi-erect penis in a warm bath.


The Jelq

1- Put some lubricant (eg. baby oil) on both your hands and penis. Your penis should be semi-erect.

2- With the thumb and forefinger of one hand, make an "Okay" sign around the base of your penis and grip it firmly.
3- Now start a milking motion towards the end of your penis.
4- When your milking hand reaches the head of your penis, form an "Okay" sign with your free hand and start milking as you did previously with the other hand. Do not milk the head of the penis.
5- You should be able to use both hands to create a continuous milking action, alternating between hands.

Ideally, you should be able to complete 100 jelq strokes every five minutes. For the first week, only perform 100 jelq strokes each day. For the second week, perform 200 jelq strokes each day. For the third week, perform 300 jelq strokes each day. From the fourth week onwards, try and perform 500 jelq strokes each day.


Important Points For Safe Jelqing

** Always do the warm-up exercises before commencing jelqing.

** Always use sufficient lubricant during jelqing.
**Don't squeeze too hard when using the jelq grip. If it hurts or you see bruising on your penis after jelqing then your jelq grip is too hard.
**Never jelq when you have a full erection (and don't ejaculate when jelqing). Jelq only when you have a semi-tumescent (rather than fully-erect) penis otherwise you may damage your penis.
**Always perform a "warm-down" (same as a warm-up) routine at the completion of your jelqing exercises.

Lady Gaga: Kanye West Out, Kid Cudi In

Diddy Orders Pat Down Of 106 & Park Crowd

Diddy appeared on BET’s 106 & Park with his other Dirty Money band members Dawn Richard and Kalenna to discuss the Dirty Money Movement & new video “Angels.” The band came out on stage throwing real and fake money into the crowd. Unfortunately, the cash wasn’t the only thing that made it into the crowd. Diddy’s $20,000 diamond ring came up missing as well. Diddy noticed his ring missing during the taping of the live show and walked out of the camera’s view. After filming wrapped, Diddy ordered the building to be shut down and no one was allowed to leave until they were searched.

While the studio audience may have been held captive indoors, they used Twitter to get their frustration out. One person who was there tweeted, “when it was over, diddy held us hostage lookin for his ring. don’t like him no more.” Another person tweeted, “Ok diddy lost his ring… and now there frisking all the kids like this is rikers.”

Diddy never did retrieve his ring and tweeted his own frustrations. “The craziest s**t just happened to me… I guess it’s s**ting on me season… Enjoy it while it lasts!!! life is crazy!”

Buju Banton Meets With San Francisco Gay Activists & Leaders

Buju Banton is n the yellow incase you didn't know

San Francisco gay activists and community leaders met with reggae artist Buju Banton Monday afternoon (October 12) to discuss “his troubling history with gay people.” In attendance were Supervisor Bevan Dufty, who arranged the meeting, executive director of the SF gay community center, Rebecca Rolfe, Equality California’s Andrea Shorter, Supervisor Eric Mar and gay activist, Michael Petrelis. According to Buju and his advisers, this was his first meeting ever with gay advocates and they desire to put an end to the controversy that follows him over anti-gay lyrics in his song, “Boom Bye Bye,” which Banton recorded in his late teens.

Petrelis described the meeting as “very civil and production, ” adding, “we made several suggestion for him to consider, in order to start to undo some of the problems he has in the gay community because of his past anti-gay lyrics.”

Suggestions made included Banton making statements in Jamaica calling for love towards gays, donating to the JFLAG group, holding a town hall meeting in Kingston about the need to respect gays, and singing about loving gay people. All the suggestions were rejected.

In late August of this year, concert promoter Live Nation had announced the cancellation of a series of Buju Banton concerts after gay activists campaigned for him to be dropped due to his anti-gay lyrics. However, since then, Banton has scheduled upcoming shows here in the U.S., just at different venues.

Jamie Foxx Talks Nude Photo & Shouts Out His “Gay Following”

Actor Jamie Foxx appeared Monday night (October 12) on the Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien to promote his new movie, Law Abiding Citizen and took the time to confirm that was in fact his man meat in the naked photo that hit the net back in August. Well, duh!

According to Jamie, “what happened was we were doing Miami Vice and I had to do a nude scene, so my makeup artist wanted to see a before and after, meaning my body wasn’t in shape then to that point.” Jamie believes the photo leaked when sometime during transfer, someone hijacked the photo. Seeing the more humorous side of the matter, Jamie went into a story of his visit to Atlanta during this year’s gay pride week to do a show. Foxx first said he has a huge alternative lifestyle, but then cleared it up to say he has a huge gay following and during his show even more of “his alternative lifestyle” was present.

Mariah Carey Helps Make Gay Marriage Proposal Possible

On Saturday night (October 10) during her show in Las Vegas, Mariah Carey brought two gay fans on stage, Maurie Sherman and Matthew Almedida, to assist in a surprise marriage proposal. Maurie explained to the crowd that several years ago, Matthew told him the only way he would allow Maurie to propose marriage is if he introduced Mathew to Mariah. So after a quick introduction, Maurie got down on one knee and proposed to Matthew with a candy ring.

As for making this magical moment happen, Maurie told the L.A. Times: I worked as hard as I can to make it happen. Everyone loved the idea. But no one made promises. I did not find out until five minutes before the concert started. Her security came over and talked to me. ‘I think we are going to do this. And, I think it will be during the show on stage.’ I did not know before that moment. But I came prepared. I dressed nicely and brought the candy ring in my pocket and made sure it didn’t break. Mathew had no idea.

A Letter My Ex wrote me the 1st time he got locked up...

I wasn't going to post it but everytime I read this I smile. He was my 1st love. I remember the day I got this in the mail.  Enjoy!!!

I Cant Blame U

I know there are times where you doubt all my love

I cant blame u

I know youre upset that Im doing this time

I cant blame u

I know there is hard because I left u alone

and still I cant blame u

But listen

We started out simple with words I would say

directed @ u as u walked away

Would ask u a question just 2 hear speak

You never know when your voice was so sweet

Would stop u @ times just 2 look @ youre face

Everyone of those times, I remember the place

Still remember the time I knew that I could spend my life with a person I knew was good!

It was beautiful we crossed paths

Never knowing we were each others other half

Remember our walks & everything we spoke

How sex was always apart of the joke

As time crept by we felt more secure

knowing in our hearts this love was 4 sure

Slowly we did things 2 teach us our ways

Only 2 awaken 2 much brighter days!

The days went on and stronger we felt

that if this love were ice it would never melt

Til one day I awoke & changed it all

Yet before it happened I made the call

I said "Today seems funny; its not my day"

Yet I still went out & projected my way

Now today has come & my skies are grayer then blü

But whatever u desire

I still can't blame u

Rapper Shyne Calls Diddy Delusional?

Remember rapper Shyne? He was an artist on Diddy’s label many moons ago and took the fall got locked up eight years ago for a shooting outside a NYC night club on a night out with Didddy and then girlfriend, J-Lo. Well, the rapper is due to be released from jail this month and according to Diddy, “It’s a blessing that [Shyne's] coming home. I spoke to him like a couple of weeks ago and he sounded like he was in good spirits. I know he can’t wait to get home. I know he is definitely going to heat the whole scene up. He was definitely one of talented young artists that I had the pleasure to work with. I’m quite sure he’s been using his time wisely and has some heat.”

Sounds nice right? The only thing is, the convo Diddy is referring to, may have never really happened. According to Shyne, “I want it known that this supposed conversation is a figment of Sean Combs’ imagination,” he says in a statement. “He never spoke with me, he never visited me nor would I ever accept a phone call or visit from him. The only way I would do either of those things would be if he stepped up and did the right thing for the victims of the incident.”

Damn! He called him Sean Combs, FULL government, so you already know.

Shyne’s release from jail has also hit a snag by talks of possible deportation back to his country of Belize, where his father Dean Barrow is Prime Minister. Barrow wrote and sent a letter to New York Governor David Paterson pleading for his son to stay in the U.S. He hasn’t received word back as of yet

Nas Appears On CNN To Talk Kids & Violence; Says Rap Influencing Violence Is A Joke

Rapper Nas appeared on CNN in an interview with Don Lemon to discuss the impact of rap music on children and his open letter to youth following the deadly beating of Chicago teen Derrion Albert.

When asked by Lemon if he feels violent lyrics influence kids to act violently, Nas answered “never” and explained “violence and war is the things that built this country,” even going on to say “a rap song in the 21st Century influencing violence is a joke.”

However, he agreed with the belief of Derrion Albert’s mom that pop culture, movie and rap had some influence on those kids to act out that day.

Ex-Judge Herman Thomas Accused Of Demanding Sexual Favors From Male Inmates

Former Alabama judge Herman Thomas’ trial began Monday (October 4) for the charges of sodomy, kidnapping, sex abuse, extortion, assault and ethics violations stemming from prisoner allegations Thomas demanded sexual favors in exchange for lighter sentences.


Thomas, who stepped down from the bench in 2007 after rumors of these allegations became more frequent, was first accused of such grave misconduct back in 2001 when an inmate filed a lawsuit against him. According to that inmate, back in 1999 Thomas offered to help him with his case in exchange for sex. Both lawsuits were dismissed. Since then other inmates have stepped forward and described incidents of being checked out of jail for meetings with Thomas in his car and private office in the county courthouse. It started with reports of inmates having to pull down their underwear for wooden paddle spankings then reports of alleged oral and anal sex.

While some will like to automatically dismiss the allegations levied against this once distinguished judge, there is some major evidence to back up these claims. There’s jail checkout logs to back up inmates’ claims of trips to see Thomas, paddling marks found on inmate’s bodies, and even one inmate’s sperm found in Thomas’ office carpet. Inmates have also been able to describe Thomas’ office in detail.

The NAACP has defended Thomas and claims race is behind the prosecution. However, Chief Assistant District Attorney Nicki Patterson disputes the claim of race, pointing out each of Thomas’ alleged victims is African-American. When on the bench, Thomas was known for his “enviable political record” as a black Democrat elected and re-elected in a county predominantly white and Republican.

Thomas’ attorney has described the charges against his client as “a high-tech lynching” by some in power in Mobile, Alabama.

Prosecutors have 15 current and former male inmates prepared to testify in the trial. If Thomas is convicted of the more serious charges of sodomy and kidnapping, he can face 20 years to life in prison.

Mariah Carey & Nick Cannon Open Up About Their Marriage & Kids

After the recent release of her new album, Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel, Mariah Carey sat down with husband

Nick Cannon for an interview where the couple opened up about having children, Mariah and Nick’s age difference and her belief she wouldn’t have even lived this long.


Check out  pieces of the interview below...

So, are you ready for kids?


Mariah: Definitely, we want a family.

Nick: Yes, of course. It’s at the forefront of our minds. We’re very close. But we want to enjoy our first year together. We didn’t have a stable environment. The first year we were in L.A. in a hotel and then we were like, “Let’s get a house.”

Mariah: But don’t think I’m moving to L.A.

Nick: We live in both places. We need to figure out where we are going to raise our kids. Here or L.A.

Mariah: New York.

Nick: L.A.



How many kids?

Nick: We’d like two.

Mariah: Of course, we’d be happy with one. I want to be able to manage the right amount of attention. We are so busy—if you have six kids running around, no one gets what they need. Kids need a lot of attention.



Mariah, could you let Nick be the sole breadwinner and just be a mom?

Mariah: I could definitely just be a mommy, but I would do other stuff like working on my fragrance, Forever. I love working but I would be able to be with my kids. I could do it.



Nick is 10 years younger than you. Does that ever worry you?

Mariah: I am very happy. I don’t believe in numbers or ages. I don’t celebrate birthdays—I celebrate anniversaries. I think it’s sexist that people make such a big deal that women marry men who are younger—men do it all the time. Age ain’t nothin’ but a number. Who cares?



It seems like 40 is a pivotal age in Hollywood.

Mariah: I find it offensive. It unfairly taints women in particular, and makes people look at you differently. I lived with that my whole life. Honestly, I never thought I’d live this long.



You thought you’d die by now?

Mariah: I have always been grateful for everything I had, but my personal life was a mess. So many artists just exist for their careers and then burn out quickly. That was me before I met Nick, and he helped me. I always thought that I wouldn’t be here at this point. I was thinking, “Okay, I’ve got another year of life left. This has got to be the end of it.” Finally, he was like, “Stop talking like that.” I have been obsessed with the whole Marilyn Monroe thing my whole life—all those artists who died young.

Lloyd Defends Ciara Comments: I Said What I Said & I Stand By It

R&B singer Lloyd is standing by his comments about singer Ciara in a recent interview with Hip Hop Weekly. While he still believes Hollywood went to her head, he took to his blog to set the record straight that he respects and loves CiCi like family but “sometimes family are the only ones that will tell you the truth.”

Here's what else Lloyd had to say about the interview plus his phone called with Ciara...

Let’s set the record straight on my “Hollywood B*tches” comment in Hip Hop Weekly. I said what I said and I stand by it. But read exactly what I said, then judge me. The truth is, I don’t fuck with Hollywood B*tches (or Hollywood Ni**as for that matter). No, I’m not calling Ciara a b*tch, I’m saying that I think celebrity status changed her for the worse, and because of that, we don’t get down anymore.

Yesterday I spoke to CiCi for the first time in years. I called her to explain my comments and to let her know how I felt about the situation. We had a good one-on-one conversation that will remain between us. I respect and I love CiCi like family, but sometimes family are the only ones that will tell you the truth. I’m sure I could have found a better way to tell her, but what’s done is done. We’re moving on.

The funny thing is, this Ciara question was the last question in the HHW interview. At first, I lied and made up some answer to make it seem like we were still cool. But when I hung up the phone, I felt like I shoulda just kept it real, so I called back and answered the question honestly. Maybe a little too honestly. But fair is fair, if I start acting Hollywood, someone that knew me before the fame should call me out too. I wish CiCi the best.

Sticky Fingaz Goes From Rapper To Fan Addict?

As if Guardian of Eden weren’t enough for two of the hardest working filmmakers in Hollywood, there is another film on the roster, FanAddict, starring Tangi Miller and Sticky Fingaz, whom you’ll remember from the award-winning hip-hop group ONYX and a long list of film and television appearances.

FanAddict, the latest film from Olivia Entertainment, follows Cheli Dayton, a world renowned musician who has the world at her feet, paparazzi at her door and a heroin needle to her arm. Haunted by the suicide of her mother, Cheli descends on a downward spiral thatdestroys her own happiness and almost her life. Enter Alex Adams, a perfectionist loner, who happens to be Cheli Dayton’s number one fan. Cheli and her number one fan live parallel lives of pain and solace in the music until a twist of fate (and Cheli’s drug desperation) leads the two to cross paths. Alex, finding a drugged out Cheli, alone and unconscious, seizes the opportunity to save his favorite celebrity, promptly kidnaps Cheli, right in the middle of her concert tour. Through tough love, can Alex saves Cheli from herself and in turn redeem and renew his own long suffering soul?

IDK, I doubt I'll be impressed. However, Sticky Fingaz is kinds cute to look at with his cock-eyed self...

50 Cent Defends Kanye West-Lady Gaga “Gay Tour” Comment + “Fame Kills” Tour Cancelled

During an interview with New York radio host Angie Martinez, rapper 50 Cent accused Kanye of pandering to the gay community and called his join-tour with Lady Gaga “the gay tour.”

“Kanye’s cool with the gay folk,” said 50. “I have nothing against them, but he’s cool with them. He goes, drops his video off to them. Remember 808s & Heartbreak? Where’d he premiere it? Ellen DeGeneres. He went there to premiere his video. He’s conscious of the gay community and wants them to buy his CDs.”

After receiving a bit of backlash for his comments, 50 took to his website to release the following statement: “During an interview with Angie Martinez yesterday, certain comments I made were taken entirely out of context. When I referred to the Lady Gaga tour as ‘the gay tour,’ I was basically repeating what I thought she had referred to the tour in the past. It was not my intention to offend anyone. I don’t have a problem with anyone’s lifestyle and have no issue with Lady Gaga. She makes great music.”

Hmmm. The fact Kanye’s name was left out of his apology only affirms it was 50s original intention to take a shot at Kanye and his perceived sexuality.

In more “Fame Kills” news, tour promoter Live Nation out of nowhere issued a press release yesterday (October 1) announcing the cancellation of the much-anticipated tour. There’s speculation Kanye’s recent antics - VMAs mic snatch and tantrums over chicken - was just more than Gaga wished to deal with. Damn, looks like fame killed the tour before it could even begin. Smh

NeNe Says No No to ATL Relief Efforts

Ludacris and T.I. donated $10,000 each to Atlanta flooding relief ... so what about ATL native NeNe Leakes? She's too busy clubbin' in Hollywood to care.

TMZ got the Real Housewife of ATL in front of Katsuya the other night. Her response to her city's plight: "I'm going to the gay club."

YES NeNe!! I mean, she's not my favorite housewife but she's a Kiki. She reminds me of some of the shady queens that have been in & out my life. Anyways, I think it's fucked up she's not going to do anything to help ATL. I bet if her area got flooded she'd go ape shit on somebody. Oh well! She wants to party with the gays in Hollywood.

BITCH BOO BYE!!!

H&M steps up to Jimmy Choo

By Karen Gram, Vancouver Sun; Canwest News Service

H&M is strapping on some Jimmy Choos this November with a collaboration that will bring the British stilettos into 200 of the clothing retailers' stores. H&M would not specify which stores would feature the collection, however, saying only that it will be in major city stores worldwide.


Jimmy Choo shoes epitomize red-carpet glamour and have been worn by Oscar winners such as Halle Berry, Cate Blanchett and Hilary Swank.

Renowned for working with designers like Stella McCartney, Karl Lagerfeld and Rei Kawakubo, H&Mis collaborating with a shoe and bag designer for the first time.

Jimmy Choo is extending its range to include women's clothing to go with the fabulous shoes. The collection also includes men's shoes, bags and accessories.

"We adore Jimmy Choo's shoes and bags," said Margareta van den Bosch, H&M's creative adviser. "I like the way we have worked with clothes to accessorize the shoes and bags rather than the other way around."

"It's fantastic to be able to offer our customers designer pieces like this at such a great price. This collection is very glamorous, so it perfectly complements H&M's party trends," said H&M spokesperson Karen Richter.

NFL Players Step Forward In Support Of Gay Rights

NFL linebacker Brendon Ayanbadejo has deviated from the typical sound bites you may hear from pro-ballers on the issue of gay people and gay rights. This Baltimore Ravens newcomer is actually speaking up in support of gay rights.

In an article for Huffington Post, Ayanbadejo wrote,

“Looking at the former restrictions on human rights in our country starting with slavery, women not being able to vote, blacks being counted as two thirds of a human, segregation, no gays in the military (to list a few) all have gone by the wayside. But now here in 2009 same sex marriages are prohibited. I think we will look back in 10, 20, 30 years and be amazed that gays and lesbians did not have the same rights as every one else. How did this ever happen in the land of the free and the home of the brave? Are we really free?”

Fellow NFL player, New Orleans Saints defensive captain Scott Fujita, stepped forward in response to Ayanbadejo’s statement, by also showing support. “People could look at this issue without blinders on…the blinders imposed by their church, their parents, their friends or, in our case, their coaches and locker rooms,” said Fujita. “I wish they would realize that it’s not a religion issue. It’s not a government issue. It’s not even a gay/straight issue or a question of your manhood. It’s a human issue. And until more people see that, we’re stuck arguing with people who don’t have an argument.”

Kanye Spazzes Out At Benefit Concert Over Chicken

Kanye West appeared over the weekend at Common’s benefit concert at the Hollywood Palladium and according to sources backstage, threw a temper tantrum over not getting a plate of chicken. No really, we couldn’t dream this up if we tried.

He supposedly became angered when he saw a man eating chicken, and yelled, “Why wasn’t I offered chicken? You want me to perform for free, [and] everyone is eating… why am I not eating?”

The waitress attempted to calm down the baby rapper and explained he never asked for food, but was interrupted by Kanye who yelled, “Well, I’m asking now.” Once he received the chicken, witnesses say he took a bite and then threw the rest in the trash. All the while, Amber Rose looked on in silence amid the other celebrities backstage who watched with jaws dropped.




Mr. Ye, I'm gonna need you to really stop acting like a coon now....

Chilli Shows Off Her New “Baby”… Floyd Mayweather Jr.?

On the heels of affirming his sexuality on Chelsea Lately, boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr. is now stepping out with his new boo, Chilli, to really seal the deal. The two were spotted coupled up last night (September 29) at an event held in honor of Sen. Kasim Reed in Atlanta. Chilli presented Reed, who is running for mayor, with the “Cusp Leadership Award” from Music is My Business and Enchanged PR. Chilli was even heard referring to Mayweather as her “baby” all night.
