Boy Stop
Why is Adam "Pac Man" Jones hosting a party with a flyer that says, "Party Starts at 12am & We Gon Make It Rain?" Is there no one in his crew with enough sense to tell him that considering the fact that the man who was paralyzed in a shooting the last time he "made it rain," is suing him, that it's not a good idea to keep attaching his name to stuff like this?

Monica's Baby Father Wreaks Havoc in New York
You know R&B singer Monica's kids' daddy cd Self Made came out last week, right? Well, maybe you don't, cause only 27,700 of y'all bought it. But anyway, Rocko da Don's street team was in New York plastering every pole in sight with these posters 'cause, you know, they want to sell more than 30,000 cds. But the thing is, this type of guerilla advertising is illegal in NY City. So check it, a reporter from the NY Times starts taking pictures of Rocko's street team doing their thing, and after snapping a few shots, Rocko's boys ask dude why he's photographing them. When the reporter replies, "Because what you're doing is illegal." One of Rocko's goons told him,“Breaking cameras is illegal, too, but if you don’t stop taking pictures, I’ll break your camera.” So the dude tells the goon that he's from The Times and the goon tells him again, “I’ll break your camera and you can print that in your paper.” And he did what he promised. Goon snatched dude's camera, throwing dude down in the process, and smashed it on the ground, in front of several witnesses. I guess goons don't know everything is digital now, and that he should have just taken the memory card out of the camera because dude printed all the pictures anyway. And Rocko and 'nem can breath a sigh of relief, because dude says he's not going to press charges.

They Say The Jacksons are Broke
Mike Epps Hit with Paternity Suit
Married comedic actor, Mike Epps, has been named in a paternity suit brought by a woman in Georgia who gave birth in December 2007. Randy Kessler, the woman's lawyer, says Epps has refused to submit to a paternity test or provide any support for the child, saying, "We are not asking for the moon, we are just asking him to take a paternity test. Once the tests are completed and paternity is confirmed, hopefully, Mr. Epps will do the right thing and begin to provide for his child." Kessler says he and his client initially wanted to work things out privately, but those efforts have been ignored by Epps and his camp. The paternity suit was filed in early February, and since then, Kessler says he has sent five letters and made a number of phone calls to Epps' lawyers -- and all he got back was silence.
