Ja Rule And Lil Wayne Post Bail

Here's some arrest footage of Wayne and Ja doing the perp walk. Weezy posted a $70,000 bond and Ja Rule put his Saddle River, NJ mansion up for collateral for his and his two co-defendants combined $320,000 bond. They are both facing up to 3 1/2 years on gun charges.

In case you don't know, this what supposed to have happened:

Police approached Lil' Wayne's tour bus, which was parked at 61st Street near Columbus Avenue, and claim they boarded the vehicle after smelling marijuana and discovered Derrick Lawrence of Brooklyn trying to flush half a pound of marijuana in the bus toilet. Lil' Wayne was changing as the officers entered the vehicle, and according to lead prosecutor Joan Illuzzi-Orbon, police discovered a .40-caliber Springfield Armory semiautomatic in a Louis Vuitton bag the rapper removed from his lap.

In Ja's case it went down like this: Police say they stopped Rule's 2004 Mercedes Maybach around 10:30 p.m. at the intersection of West End Avenue and 78th street for having a suspended registration. The officers searched the vehicle after smelling marijuana and discovered a .40-caliber semiautomatic Taurus in a backseat compartment of the car. Police arrested Rule, as well as his 38-year-old driver Mohamed Gamal and another passenger 36-year-old Dennis Cherry.

Mel B Says Eddie Murphy's Lifestyle Came Between Them

In this month's Essence magazine, Mel B gives up every dirty detail in her and Eddie's break-up. Aside from all the stuff we've heard before, like how he made that nasty comment about not knowing whose kid that was after having PLANNED this baby with her, Mel confides to Essence, "We were going to buy a house in Malibu and move in together. Somehow things got confused along the way because there were certain things that went on in his house with his lifestyle that I wasn't prepared to be a part of."

"So that became a trippy discussion, which ended up where we both refused to budge."

The Writings On The Wall For Michael Vick

Might as well say goodbye to Michael Vick. NFL commisoner Roger Goodell told Vick not to come to training camp this week until the league reviews the dogfighting charges against him.

"While it is for the criminal justice system to determine your guilt or innocence, it is my responsibility as commissioner of the National Football League to determine whether your conduct, even if not criminal, nonetheless violated league policies, including the Personal Conduct Policy," Goodell said in a letter to the quarterback.

Vick will still get his preseason pay and Goodell told the Falcons to withhold any disciplinary action of their own until the league's review was completed.
