Doug E Fresh In Foreclosure
According to the NY Post: Rap icon Doug E. Fresh - best known for his '80s hit "The Show" - has been socked with three foreclosure actions by banks looking to collect more than $3.5 million in unpaid mortgages on a trio of his Harlem homes.
The rapper, 46, also is being chased by American Express for nearly $60,000 in credit-card debt, and the IRS just slapped him with a $367,000 tax lien on top of more than $40,000 owed to the state tax collector, records show.
That's Her Story And She's Sticking To It
T-Boz told Essence Magazine: "I'm not homeless. During my last marriage [to Mack 10], I had a bunch of things that were put in my name. If one of those properties is going into foreclosure then I don't know. Although I've been divorced for five years, there are still a lot of things I'm dealing with on getting straight in that regard. All I know is that the house I live in with my daughter is not [in foreclosure]. When you pull up my name, my real house doesn't show up because it's not in my real name, because I enjoy my privacy and I'm not trying to have people be able to find me that easily."
Not A Good Look Plax
In his first public outing since shooting himself in the leg and being suspended from his team, NY Giant Plaxico Burress and his family attended a Kevin Powell sponsored benefit for the homeless. Guests were supposed to bring a coat to donate, which Plaxico did not. "He's ridiculous," an insider fumed. "He just used the event as a photo opportunity and couldn't have cared less that he didn't bring a coat."
Beyonce Says
"My goal is to become a successful actress in dramas that don't involve singing. I've been comfortable in singing roles, but I don't want to be comfortable. I want non-singing roles that will challenge me. I want to open the door for black female entertainers and show them they can do anything."
