It’s nothing like seeing a dad with his children. In recent news we have Eddie Murphy acting like his doesn’t have a baby to spend time with, but not all hollywood dads work that way. Checkout Travis Barker and Russell Simmons spending quality time with their daughters.

Also, checkout the Simmons Clan at the 8th Annual Art For Life “”Not So Mellow Yellow“.

It’s been a minute since we’ve seen these stars on the small screen, big screen, and in the studio. I wonder what’s going on in their lives, and if they have any new projects in the works.

Sorry, haters, hip-hop isn’t dead.
It may be in trouble, but Rock the Bells, a 10-hour festival of nearly two dozen acts at Randalls Island throughout the weekend, not only provided plenty of proof of how potent the genre still is, but it offered a blueprint of ideas rappers could use to make hip-hop even more powerful in the future.

According to Page Six, Diddy social status has been down-graded from an A-lister.
HE once ruled the party scene from New York to the Riviera, but it seems Sean “Diddy” Combs‘ social status is slipping. Sources at St. Tropez hotspot Les Caves – where the rapper was once a regular fixture – told Page Six that when the daddy of four showed up at the club Thursday night, he was refused a table. “He is so B-List here,” said the snitch. “No one even acknowledges him.”
Maybe you to get with Beyonce and Jay-Z, and let them upgrade you! Say it ain’t so, Diddy, say it ain’t so!
If they make it to the alter do they really think they’ll be in love forever ever…I know this is Hollywood and 10 months may seem like a life-time, but really isn’t it too soon for the both of them. Woman to woman, she hasn’t even convinced him to see his child, may be she knows a gentler side that we can’t see. He definitely needs something to boost his image.

According to TMZ, “Dreamgirls” star Eddie Murphy proved that girlfriend Tracey Edmonds is his favorite girl of all, by presenting her with a ginormous yellow diamond engagement ring this past week.
The ring was massive, but don’t expect a blowout wedding…This one, a friend told OK! magazine, “will be a private wedding. Something low key and very romantic.”
Congrats!
The Beckhams meet the Queen…Latifah that is. Hollywood must be really small, these Beckhams are certainly getting the red carpet treatment. I wonder what will happen if we actually win a World Cup.

Here are some pics of Ne-Yo performing for McDonald’s Live Concert Tour in Venice Beach. I like his music, so I am going to be nice, but he really tries too hard.

MTV releasaed their top ten as chosen by a special panel. If you do not agree with this list, please contact MTV, they would love to hear from you. I still listen to music from the 80’s and 90’s, so I can be to mad. I do have a few questions: Jim Jones Top 10? The Game #3? Where is Big Boi?
