Mike Vick Pleads Not Guilty
Michael Vick pleaded not guilty to all charges against him in a Richmond Virginia court yesterday where prosecutors said more charges against him are likely and told Vick and his co-defendants, "We've already charged you with serious crimes. You might want to consider a guilty plea. We are going to file more charges next month. That gives you a few weeks to think about the guilty plea. If you come and talk to us about pleading guilty and testifying for us, there will be no more charges against you. If you do not, the charges and the potential punishment will grow quickly. "
Call me crazy but that sounds like the kind of shit they say to scare you when they know their case won't hold up in court.

He was denied.

This is what you're supposed to do when you fall down on stage. Get your butt right back up and act like nothing 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.

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."
