Diddy Speaks On Cassie Engagement!

Over the weekend, Diddy shared a photo of a beautiful ring he bought for longtime girlfriend Cassie, who was later spotted rocking the bling on her ring finger, naturally sparking rumors of an engagement for the happy couple. Looks like it was just an “I love you” ring, though, as a rep for Puff released a statement to the Daily News that the pair “are not engaged.” There’s that!


Kayo Redd’s Mother Debra Antney Speaks Out; Reveals Final Moments & Possible Reason For Suicide

It has all but been confirmed that Waka Flocka’s younger brother, aspiring rapper Kayo Redd, died from a suicide over the weekend. The official autopsy report should come at some point this week, but that is basically what his family and police are saying. The news is heartbreaking in itself, but adding in the fact that Debra Antney (Waka and Kayo’s mother) already lost a son (their brother) in 2000 from a car crash, that makes it that much harder. “He had just left my house and he headed down the street and the next thing I knew was my son was dead,” the Mizay Entertainment CEO said in a phone interview yesterday afternoon. Debra was naturally fighting back tears as she spoke, explaining that her son had been struggling with the fact that he couldn’t help take care of her the way that Waka was doing. He had an upcoming eye surgery that was troubling him as well. “My son was a good kid and I never had any problems with him,” Debra said. “I just don’t know why he would do such a thing?” It’s so, so sad…and truly goes to show that you NEVER know what someone is going through. Scrolling through Kayo’s Twitter, he seemed excited about the mixtape he’d recently released, Red Kisses, and the weekly radio show he was involved in. Little did the world know the demons that he was facing inside. Let’s make sure we are talking to our loved ones daily! RIP, Kayo!


(Photo) Ashley Reid Releases A Statement In Regards To Threatening TLC’s Chilli!

I’m all about PR! My question here is, WHERE WAS YOUR PUBLICIST WHEN YOU WERE THREATENING FOLK – ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS?! We all know the story by now, CrazySexyCool: The TLC Story aired on VH1, the movie depicted former manager, Pebbles in a terrible light and then her children spoke up. The loudest of the two, Ashley Reid took to her twitter account as well as her weekly radio show to single out Chilli and send bodily harm threats her way. Chilli responds with the most simplicity, which has forced Ashley to make an attempt at redeeming her image with the statement after the jump. Drop down bottom and check it out.


(Photos) NBA: Carmelo Confirms: “I Want To Retire In New York”

The Knicks lost their game against the Bulls last night, but they might of won in the long run. Prior to the game going on the air, Carmelo Anthony did an interview with TNT where he discussed his free agency. He has been taking some undeserved criticism lately for even discussing his possible free agency, and leaving it up in the air as far as where he could wind up. But if you are a true fan you know it would be naive of him NOT to opt-out and become a free agent because of the money he can earn even if he was to re-sign with the Knicks. He decided to clear the air last night and Knicks fans should he happy. Hit the jump.


Pebbles Releases A Statement About TLC Movie; Reveals Plans To Possibly Sue

The TLC biopic CrazySexyCool: A TLC Story premiered on VH1 last Monday night, and over a week later, their former manager Perri “Pebbles” Reid has finally issued a statement. If you’ve seen the film, you know that Pebbles wasn’t exactly portrayed in a positive light. In fact, she was made out to be a conniving, money-hungry record exec that took advantage of 3 young women that wanted to make it. Whether these are really the “facts” is up for debate, but one thing’s for sure: Pebbles is PISSED. (As was her son, who has already spoke out.) “This unprovoked attack has been extremely upsetting to me and my family,” Pebbles said in her statement, which she says took so long to release because she was so shocked. “‘CrazySexyCool: The TLC Story’ contains many false and defamatory statements and scenes about me.” Pebbles insists she has never cheated the group she “discovered, managed, and mentored,” and plans to defend her name by any means necessary. She says her attorney is already in the process of demanding retractions from VH1.
