Judge Praises Chris Brown; National Enquirer: Rihanna Hates Chris

MrsGrapevine — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 18:24:40 +0000

Every time it seems like the drama is coming to an end, the news brings it back to the forefront. Singer R&B Chris Brown appeared in court yesterday, and the judge was proud of the progress he’s made. I don’t know if he’s genuinely remorseful, or if he just knows we’re all watching, but most abusers are not so willing to do the time because they don’t feel they’re guilty. Most abusers have every excuse in the word, and for Chris Brown to take full responsibility without justifying his actions (not that they he could anyway), isn’t something that should go unnoticed. I hope the classes work, and I hope he’s not putting on a front to win back favor or fans.

LOS ANGELES – Chris Brown won praise from a judge Thursday for keeping up with the terms of his punishment for beating Rihanna. “Excellent,” L.A. County Superior Court Judge Patricia Schnegg said when informed by Brown’s lawyer Mark Geragos that the “Kiss Kiss” singer has completed 100 hours of his lengthy community labor requirement.

“It’s an extremely favorable progress report,” Schnegg said, referring to Brown’s formal probation update. She said Brown has attended seven of his 52 mandatory domestic violence counseling sessions, paid all his court fines and given a sample of his DNA.

She ordered Brown back for another status report Feb. 18. [Source]

The National Enquirer is reporting that a “friend” of Rihanna claims Rihanna “despises” Chris Brown, and that Chris Brown has been sending her e-mails up until October trying to win her back…Click “continue reading” for the juicy details.

The 21-year-old singer cannot bear to discuss her relationship with Chris with those close to her, and is still struggling to come to terms with the violent assault he inflicted on her in February. Chris was sentenced to five years probation, six months community labour, 52 weeks of domestic violence classes and ordered to stay away from her for five years following the altercation.

The source told National Enquirer magazine: “Behind the scenes the truth is Rihanna despises Chris – so much so that if someone mentions him in passing she’ll say, ‘Please don’t talk about him.’

“She absolutely did the right thing by being classy in the interview, rather than coming off as vindictive. But I’ve even heard her curse Chris out for what he did to her. She did love him deeply, but in reality those feelings have died away.”

The source explained: “Up until October, Chris was stills ending her emails saying they should go out together for dinner or drinks. Rihanna finally got to the point where she threatened to go to the judge if he kept on bothering her. He’s stopped since then.” [Source]

For The Love Of Ray J Drama Spills Into Reality: Trey Songz, Just Right, Danger

MrsGrapevine — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 16:22:23 +0000

You know it’s a slow news day when all the drama on the internet centers around the cast of For The Love of Ray J. There are some pictures and rumors circulating that Just Right, who goes by the name Ophilia, is dating Trey Songz. Supposedly, the real reason Just Right was kicked off the show this week was because Ray-J found out about Trey Songz. Wow, in my opinion is sounds made up. It sounds like a publicity stunt to to gain just enough media attention to market Ophilia’s “modeling” career (i.e. hustler magazine and music videos).

The picture taken below, looks like a picture you take when you see a celebrity at the mall or in the club, not a picture of a real couple.

[Just Right: Hey, I'm a big fan, can I take a picture with you!]

[Trey Songz: Sure, Cheese!]

[Trey Songz: Thanks, I'm going back to my table, now. Akward!]

Speaking of cast members from For the Love of Ray J, According to Hello Beautiful, Danger admits to sleeping with Ray J while pregnant with Nick Canon’s brother’s child. You better start praying now because I have a feeling the world just may end in 2012 with all this foolishness…WOW!

While being interviewed on DJ Whoo Kid’s radio show, Danger let it slip that she had sex with Ray-Z while being pregnant with someone else’s kid. As the interview went on, she retracted her statement. Danger also revealed that she’s not with the baby’s father anymore and that she did make a sex tape which was stolen…stay tuned!!!We can’t post this interview here due to it’s graphic content, but you can click here to listen to the interview.

Perhaps the best invention of our day is the paternity test. SMH!

Rihanna Spotted With Bump & Bruise Over Eye

MrsGrapevine — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 16:40:26 +0000

I try not to make fun of the situation, but sometimes I can’t help myself. My first thought was Chris Brown and Rihanna were re-united (I know that was mean and not funny, but that’s what I thought.) Now, I’m just curious as to why Rihanna has a huge bump above her eye. All I know is that she had fun in London, whatever that means.

Check out more pictures of Rihanna’s Eye after the jump…

The Story Behind The Story: Chris Brown Versus Rihanna Assault & Album Sales

MrsGrapevine — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 16:32:45 +0000

I have had my share of grief because people feel like I favor Chris Brown, thus I support domestic violence. Not sure how they come to that leap, but those are the accusation many of us who have asked the media to slow down and be fair, have received. I don’t condone domestic violence against women, or against men. I don’t think anyone no matter how weak they are should hit anyone else. (Glad we got that out the way).

Behind the scenes there is a war of truths going on, and it has been ignited with Rihanna’s interview with Diane Sawyer. The problem is that there is a big “gap” and huge “hole” between the time that Rihanna admits to finding a text message that proved Chris Brown was cheating, until the time Chris Brown started assaulting her. All Rihanna has said about that gap is that it escalated, but she doesn’t say how it escalated. Chris closest friends maintains that he is a good guy, and that Rihanna “knows” what she did during this “gap” in the story, and that it was completely foul and will certainly turn public opinion against her. Friends of both parties just want Rihanna to tell the “whole” story. So many people in Chris Brown’s camp want to speak out so bad that they have taken to twitter of all places to defend him:

In the history of their relationship, Chris Brown has not initiated a violent act against Rihanna. Each time a situation of violence has occurred, it was initiated by Rihanna and Chris Brown has always managed to control or redirect his anger.

People who claim to be closest to Chris Brown say the Rihanna interview was a media stunt, and that she was forced by her handlers to say certain things in the interview to restore her career, and to destroy that of Chris Brown. They also maintain the truth will come out oneday. I don’t know what’s true, but I do know the year began with Chris Brown and Rihanna and the year will end with Chris Brown and Rihanna.

Please Note: Chris Brown has taken full responsibility for the assault, and has not charged Rihanna with any wrongdoing. He has chosen to not talk about any of the details that lead to the assault. I don’t know if that was for legal reasons, or out of love for Rihanna.

This is about to get messy…

Rihanna Interview With Diane Sawyer 20/20

MrsGrapevine — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 14:46:34 +0000

That’s embarrassing that that’s the type of person that I fell in love with. So far in love. So unconditional that I went back. It’s humiliating to say this happened. To accept that? It’s a traumatizing experience.

You listen to this interview it will put some things in perspective for you. I always say, we behind the blogs get so wrapped up in the story that we forget there are actual human behind the celebrity. I must say I am so proud of Rihanna for finally speaking out, it’s always better late than never, and not only does she speak out, she seems quite honest and forthcoming. This interview is more detailed than what inside “sources” lead us to believe (almost made drop a tear). Although she doesn’t go into great detail, in part two she says a lot more about that night than what Chris Brown had to say. I am still suspect that her team decided to speak out before an upcoming album, it would have meant a lot more to me, if the interview wasn’t linked to a promotion. But like I said late, it’s always better than never…

It’s completely normal to go back. It’s not right. I learned the hard way, but again, this is what I want people to know. When I realized that my selfish decision for love could result in some young girl getting killed, I could not be easy with that part. I couldn’t be held responsible for going back.Even if Chris never hit me again, who is to say that their boyfriend won’t? Who’s to say that they won’t kill these girls? These are young girls and I just didn’t realize how much of an impact I had on these girls’ lives until that happened.

Khloe Kardashian Staged Reality Show Relationship With NBA Player Rasha McCants

MrsGrapevine — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 14:01:15 +0000

Surprise, Surprise the Kardashians reality fake! NBA baller, Rasha McCants, claims he was framed by Khloe Kardashion and her sister sidekick Kourtney Kardashian on their reality show, Kourtney and Khloe in Miami. Rasha claims that the show staged a break-up between him and Khloe, and Page Six of the NY Post has the details:

The shooting guard said Khloe and sister Kourtney, who claimed he cheated on Khloe, “made the whole thing up.” McCants said a “Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami” episode — where they were seen hacking into McCants’ voice mail and listening to suggestive phone messages apparently left for him by a female fan — was staged. He said the curvy sisters did not have his current phone number and he and Khloe “had already called it quits” in January, before the segment was even taped. Meanwhile, Khloe wasted no time finding herself another NBA star to play ball — she wed the LA Lakers’ Lamar Odom in September, after a monthlong romance. Not surprisingly, the reality show cameras caught every moment. Reps for E! and Khloe did not return calls or e-mails for comment. [Source]

Rihanna Candid Interview With Glamour Magazine – Woman Of The Year – December Cover

MrsGrapevine — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 14:52:01 +0000

Rihanna first interview regarding the assault has just been released. In an interview with Glamour Magazine, she talks about her career, her personal life, and the embarrassing moments that began the night before the Grammy’s, specifically the infamous assault, and the photo leaks. As I told you yesterday, she will not talk about the details of that night for legal purposes, but she does touch on how that night changed her. Rihanna will be honored by Glamour Magazine at Women of the Year on Monday at Carnegie Hall in NYC. (I am so happy she spoke out, I just didn’t want this to be swept under the rug, without addressing the young fans. I’m going to ignore the fact that she has an album coming out, and believe in my heart that she has done this because she felt it was time…)

Glamour: Let’s talk about this past year—you’ve obviously been through some difficult things. How did the people around you help you cope?

Rihanna: My friends and family have been extremely supportive, and everyone has been there for me. But at some point you are there alone. It’s a lonely place to be—no one can understand. That’s when you get close to God.

Glamour: Are you referring to the [Chris Brown] incident?

Rihanna: I am talking about starting with the night [before] the Grammys and then on. That was not the only thing that occurred this year. The picture leaking…it was one thing after another.

Glamour: You’re talking about the photo [reportedly of Rihanna’s injured face taken by police after Brown assaulted her] that was allegedly leaked by cops. You handled that so well; you kept silent in the press.

Rihanna: It was humiliating; that is not a photo you would show to anybody. I felt completely taken advantage of. I felt like people were making it into a fun topic on the Internet, and it’s my life. I was disappointed, especially when I found out the photo was [supposedly leaked by] two women.

Glamour: How has this event changed you as a person, as a woman?

Rihanna: I’m stronger, wiser and more aware. You don’t realize how much your decisions affect people you don’t even know, like fans.

Glamour: If you could offer a message to the millions of young women who look up to you, what would you tell someone who found herself in a similar situation?

Rihanna: Domestic violence is a big secret. No kid goes around and lets people know their parents fight. Teenage girls can’t tell their parents that their boyfriend beat them up. You don’t dare let your neighbor know that you fight. It’s one of the things we [women] will hide, because it’s embarrassing. My story was broadcast all over the world for people to see, and they have followed every step of my recovery. The positive thing that has come out of my situation is that people can learn from that. I want to give as much insight as I can to young women, because I feel like I represent a voice that really isn’t heard. Now I can help speak for those women.

Glamour: Is it too early for you to think, I want to be in love, I want to have a family? Is that too far down the road?

Rihanna: I hope I find love in the next 10 years—that will be pretty annoying if I am 31 and still have never been in love! But yeah, I’d like to be in a great place in both my personal life and my career. I still want to be doing what I love. Whatever that is in 10 years, I don’t know.

Rihanna Finally Speaks Out On Good Morning America & 20/20

MrsGrapevine — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 13:54:49 +0000

Good Morning America: Thursday 7AM ET; 20/20 Friday Night 10PM ET

The headline says “Now For the Very First Time Rihanna Tells Her Story.” You have to read the tag lines carefully, it says Rihanna will tell “her” story and not “her side” of the story. What does that mean; that could mean anything. Not once did it say Rihanna will talk about that awful night with ex-boyfriend Chris Brown. I am definitely going to watch just to see what she will say, but I have to tell you I have a “suspect” feeling, that this is more of an interview about her music career, and not about her “private” life.

We will all tune in, only to find out that legally due to the plea deal Rihanna is not allowed to discuss the merits of the case. Something also tells me that she will admit that she still has feelings for Chris Brown, and that the night of the assualt changed her and shaped her new album. That’s the PR spin in me talking….Similar Posts:

More Proof Alicia Keys Knew Swizz Beats Was Married To Mashonda

MrsGrapevine — Fri, 30 Oct 2009 23:00:27 +0000

Sorry, Alicia Keys but your private life just keeps coming into my inbox and onto my twitter page. I have never defended Alicia Keys actions, but I did give her the benefit of the doubt. Now, YBF has exclusive pictures of Alicia Keys and Swizz Beats kissing back in January of 2008, which is quite strange considering rumors were flying around that the two were seen kissing at the Museum of Art in NYC before Mashonda and Swizz Beats split. I see why celebrities want to keep their private lives private. Click here to read more…

When I was single, I had the mindset that you can’t make a man cheat, and if a man cheats it has nothing to do with the mistress. Now that I am married, I now see that women are a lot more sneaky than perhaps I thought before, and that anyone that is knowingly dating a married man, needs to fall back, until the ink dries.

If a man really loves you, why is it so hard for him to get a divorce and be with you? Don’t let him blame it on the kids because the kids usually know what’s up. When has enough time passed before you begin to realize you’re being played just like his wife? I don’t know if the statistic is true, but only 3% of the married men who cheat on their wives actually marry their mistress? Those that marry their mistress have high divorce rates, and I wonder why.

Chris Brown has been busy promoting himself and taking care of some damage control in preparation of his new album, Grafitti.

Chris Brown just released another promo pic that shows him in a new mature light. Album available December 15, 2009...

Rihanna has just released a song from her new album, Rated R, entitled Russian Roulette. The song is really dark and sombre, which is not a bad thing for people like me. Also, check out Rihanna’s promo pic from Rihanna Daily. Album in stores November 23rd…

I hope this doesn’t turn into publicity war to sell albums. They are both talented, and I want them to both have the opportunity to shine…

Usher 911 Call To Police To Report Tameka Allege Outrage

MrsGrapevine — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 23:02:28 +0000

RadarOnline has the 911 tape of Usher Raymond call to 911, reporting that Tameka Raymond keyed his car. The great thing about this tape is that we learn Usher’s home address and “office” number.

In case you haven’t heard, Usher claims Tameka was acting psycho one night calling his mama’s house, and banging on the door late night demanding her kids. The incident must have really frightened Usher and his mother, because they called 911 to report Tameka. The next day Usher SUV was “allegedly” keyed by the ex, Tamkea Raymond. Now I must inform you that the police found no evidence to support Usher’s claim. So either Tameka is really sneaky, or Usher is not telling the whole truth. So it’s a classic case of he said/she said, all played out in the media.

Anyway to get Usher’s address and phone or to listen to 911 call, click here…

Are We Sure Ray J Is “Not” The Father Of Danger’s Baby

MrsGrapevine — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 14:04:41 +0000

Monica Leon, best known by the code name “Danger” on the VH1 reality series, For the Love of Ray J, just had a baby shower. Let’s see, about nine months ago she claimed Ray-J was the father of her un-born child, and of course Ray J denied denied denied. But isn’t it strange for a guy to be at a baby shower when he’s not the father of the baby? Isn’t it even more strange when he’s the only guy in the picture? Move over Papa Knowles, I think another paternity suit is coming.

I received a tweet yesterday that made me laugh, and then it made me think. Is Ray-J a supportive friend, or is there more to this story:

walkerk23 @MrsGrapevine Ok, is danger carrying Ray Js kid or what…I saw the pics from her baby shower and it looked like he was the only guy there…

Cat Fight Reality: Lisa Raye Has Beef With Rocsi, Vivica Fox, & Star Jones

MrsGrapevine — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 13:12:06 +0000

Lisa Raye has been the subject of many rumors lately, and the strangest one is that she’s been chopping it up with Al Sharpton of all people. Now, Lisa Ray McCoy is back with a reality series in the works, and she’s putting former BFFs Vivica A Fox and Star Jones on blast. It doesn’t stop there, Rocsi of 106 & Park is a target for sleeping with Lisa Raye’s ex-husband while they were still married, and former cast mate Duane Martin is accused of providing Lisa’s ex- husband with a mistress in exchange for a business deal…

After Lisa’s divorce from Prime Minister Michael Misick of Turks & Caicos, Lisa Raye’s so called “friends” turned their backs on her, by supporting her ex-husband Misick:

First up is former “View” co-host Jones, who raised McCoy’s ire by supposedly supporting Misick after the divorce. “LisaRaye hosted Star at her home in the Turks & Caicos for three weeks when Star was going through her divorce from Al Reynolds,” says a source close to the TV One series. “When the tables turned and McCoy’s marriage ended, Star was helping LisaRaye’s husband.”

That allegedly included counseling Misick and even recommending her personal damage-control publicist to aid him during the messy split…

That’s not all former best friend Vivica A Fox has her share of wrath coming, as well:

McCoy says she was also double-crossed by former best friend Fox, who allegedly shared McCoy’s most intimate secrets with Misick. “LisaRaye hasn’t spoken to Vivica since,” said the source.

The list just goes on. Duane Martin & Rocsi will be getting some of the action, too:

The list doesn’t stop there – in fact, it gets worse. McCoy also counts “106 & Park” host Rosci as an enemy, accusing the BET star of having an illicit affair with Misick. Even McCoy’s former TV hubby on “All of Us” has fallen out of favor – McCoy claims actor Duane Martin rovided a mistress for her then-husband in an effort to do business on Turks & Caicos.

It’s not Tameka Foster that’s holding up the Divorce, it’s Usher. Blogxilla exclusively reveals to Global Grind that Tameka Foster is ready to finalize the divorce “papers”, but Usher is stalling the process. Honestly, if he’s stalling the process, I don’t think it has anything to do with not letting go of Tameka Foster. We all know he’s already moved on, so I’m thinking it’s one of two things: his pocket book or album timing.[To get the juice on this story check out Blogxilla]

Papa Knowles Paternity Suit

MrsGrapevine — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 13:06:35 +0000

Papa Knowles may be working on his retirement plan.

According to Alexsandra Wright and TMZ, she is six months pregnant by Mathew Knowles, better known as Beyonce’s father. Ms. Wright has filed a paternity suit in the court of law against Big Papa Knowles. She’s not just saying he’s the baby’s daddy, she wants the court to prove it, and she’s not waiting until after the baby is born, either.

Rumors have been circulating that Tina and Mathew Knowles were estranged, like Joe and Katherine Jackson. In past interviews they have spoken of brief separations in their marriage, but this one will probably take the cake.

The young lady, Alexsandra Wright, is an “actress”, who had a brief appearance on Scrubs in 2001. I do mean brief. Her last acting gig was on the show Girl’s Club, as Janice back in 2002, and she also had a brief appearance in Baby Boy. Papa Knowles should no better by now, and this woman just may have found her come up. As for now, it’s just a rumor, a legal one at that, but we are watching to see how the story unfolds…

People are going to get mad at me because they buy into these princess images, but Bobby Brown was on VH1 Behind the Music with a revealing interview. Now when Whitney Houston was on Oprah, I felt she wasn’t tell the whole truth about her drug use, and blamed everything on Bobby Brown. I don’t think Whitney came clean, and I could probably understand why. Bobby Brown on the other hand admitted to not only doing drugs like cocaine, but heroin as well. He said he doesn’t remember 5 years of his life because he spent it so high. Most importantly, this time he quit cold turkey, because rehab failed him three times. Anyway you can see for yourself…
