MTV has deemed it inappropriate for its viewers to watch Lady Gaga’s “Telephone“ video, so the music channel is banning the provocative and controversial mini movie-cum-music video. Other networks are expected to follow MTV’s lead, but the millions of people who have seen the video on YouTube do not seem to mind.
The controversial video has riled the sensitivities of some people for its raunchy content, which includes lesbian kissing and a lot of boobs, not to mention parental-advisory-worthy lines. The video has received over 14 million hits just three days since its debut. “Telephone” opens with a bra-less Lady Gaga being escorted to her jail cell by two bra-flashing guards, as female inmates salivate at the new jailbird.

Gabourey Sidibe’s mother spoke with Inside Edition to respond to Howard Stern’s slick comments that he made during a radio broadcast a few days ago. With all considered, I’d say that she handled it pretty well. I’m not too sure that my own mother would’ve been so nice about it but her answer worked. Peep the ending where Stern says Gabby “needs help,” like she’s some sort of cracked out mental case. Oh brother…

I mean DAMN! How long did we have to wait for this? Lady Gaga hooked up with Beyonce for the highly anticipated video for Telephone. These two ladies together, even for a stroll in the park, are EPIC!
PS: Kinda upset that Jesus didn’t make a guest appearance though. You’d think that with all this wait….I’m just sayin’!
Another sidenote: I didn’t watch the video. I wanna wait and tweet about it when everybody else is watching it haha!

Well don’t this beat all? Sad thing is, with all the complexion issues that even children are showing when comparing white/light dolls to black ones, these cheaper black dolls STILL won’t sell. Shoutout to Kiss Magazine for the heads up!
Walmart is raising eyebrows after cutting the price of a black Barbie doll to nearly half of that of the doll’s white counterpart at one store and possibly others.
Packages of Mattel’s Ballerina Barbie and Ballerina Teresa dolls hanging side by side at an unidentified store. The Teresa dolls, which feature brown skin and dark hair, are marked as being on sale at $3.00. The Barbies to the right of the Teresa dolls, meanwhile, retain their original price of $5.93. The dolls look identical aside from their color.

New track from Usher ft. T.I. called Guilty. I kinda like this track mainly because it features the KANG. I can definitely see myself putting this one on repeat. Good job, Ush.
Oh and FYI, I have always been an Usher fan. As a fan, you want the artists that you like to do their thing and be successful but when you feel that they’re doing less than that, it doesn’t make you any less of a fan to speak on it. I would love to see Raymond vs Raymond do well but with the exception of Daddy’s Home (cuz I do like that song now ha!) and this track, I’m not too excited about what Ush has in store for us. But we’ll see. I’ll continue rooting for him but just b/c I am a fan doesn’t mean that I am obligated to like EVERYTHING he does all the time.
During a mini-interview with DJ Enuff, Swizz Beatzkinda speaks on why his relationship with Mashonda ended. And guess what? It’s NOT Alicia Keys fault. He says that the reason for the dissolution of their marriage was because Mashonda repeatedly tried to make him choose between their marriage and his relationship with his oldest son (who knew?). He also hinted that Mashonda was using the drama of their fallout to try and pull in a reality show. And did he say that ole girl was trying to find different ways of going through his phone? Doesn’t every chick try this at some point? Post your thoughts on the ‘view.
