"We are devastated by the loss of our group member, sister and friend Natina Reed. Because of the enormous support of Blaque fans and our love for each another, Blaque officially reunited this fall and we were in the process of working on a new album and a reality show. Natina continuously embodied the pioneering spirit of Blaque and her undeniable creativity touched the hearts of fans everywhere. Natina was a mother, sister, accomplished songwriter, artist and friend. We ask for your prayers at this time for Natina's family. She will forever be missed and her global influence eternally felt. We thank God for the experiences we shared".

After Totally Deleting All Of His Tweets, Kanye West Returns to Twitter to Remember Steve Jobs

 


Just a couple of days after deleting all of tweets and leaving his 8.6 followers with a simple "Be back soon," West, 35, is tweeting again -- this time, to pay homage to Apple's late co-founder, Steve Jobs.

"WE LOST STEVE A YEAR AGO TODAY . . ." West wrote Friday evening, using his signature all-caps style. "HE IS ONE OF THE MOST INSPIRING AND INFLUENTIAL HUMAN BEINGS OF OUR EXISTENCE ALONG WITH MICHAEL JACKSON, WALT DISNEY AND DR. [MARTIN LUTHER] KING."

Added West, "LET'S BE THANKFUL FOR HIS LIFE AND RESPECT HIS LEGACY BY NEVER COMPROMISING ON OUR FUTURE."
 
  

Prior to clearing his Twitter feed, the outspoken Grammy winner was known for his always entertaining, often outrageous musings about life on the A-list. (Among the best? "I specifically ordered persian rugs with cherub imagery!!! What do I have to do to get a simple rug with cherub imagery uuuuugh," he wrote in July 2010. And, "I hate when I'm on a flight and I wake up with a water bottle next to me like oh great now I gotta be responsible for this water bottle," he tweeted that October.)

More recently, West had been keeping his Twitter transmissions short and sweet.
"Mercy," he captioned a photo of girlfriend Kim Kardashian, 31, in a formfitting backless Tom Ford dress in early August. A few days later he let his followers know, "I wrote the song Perfect Bitch about Kim."

Fleetwood Mac Singer Stevie Nicks is Apologizing For Wanting To Strangle Nicki Minaj Over Mariah Carey Beef


OMG by Yahoo just broke this news report:

"The former Fleetwood Mac singer, who was a mentor last season on "American Idol," was asked about the recent blowup between new "Idol" judges Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj, and Stevie had some strong words for the new "Idol" judge.

"How dare this little girl!... If I had been Mariah I would have walked over to Nicki and strangled her to death right there," the 64-year-old rocked told The Daily.com when asked about Minaj. "I would have killed her in front of all those people and had to go to jail for it."

Now, Nicks regrets her comments and says they came after a grueling day with the media.

"I want to apologize for my remarks about Nicki Minaj's behavior toward Mariah Carey which I said during a long and exhausting day of interviews. It was very out of character for me and I deeply regret what I said," she said in a statement released to Access Hollywood.
Adding, "I feel very protective toward Mariah Carey who has gone through many difficulties in her life and I spoke without thinking. I think all artists should be respectful toward one another and that includes me. I am truly sorry."
A rep for Minaj was not immediately available for comment when contacted by Access Hollywood on Wednesday."

Actress Stacey Dash gets BLASTED On Twitter for Encouraging Us All to Vote For Mitt Romney

From NY Daily News Reports:

"After experiencing a firestorm on Twitter fueled by racially explosive language, “Clueless” star Stacey Dash evoked Martin Luther King Jr. on Tuesday to explain why she’s supporting Mitt Romney for President.

“I chose him not by the color of his skin, but the content of his character,” the black actress told CNN’s Piers Morgan.




Dash also dished that the GOP nominee’s running mate, Paul Ryan, called her personally to praise her, she said.

 But Morgan began the interview by reading Dash some of the more provocative tweets pouncing on her initial Twitter post Sunday, when she urged people to “vote for Romney.”

“This is somebody who tweeted, ‘You’re an unemployed black woman endorsing Mitt Romney. You’re voting against yourself thrice, you poor beautiful idiot.’ And somebody else just put, ‘Kill yourself, you old hag,'” Morgan said, labeling the remarks “disgusting.”

“I don’t feel offended. I just feel that, you know, as a country, this is my choice,” Dash responded. “This is the man [Romney] I want to lead my country.”
 
Other Twitter users who attacked Dash referred to her as an “indoor slave” and joked that she is no longer black.

“RACIAL DRAFT: I LIKE TO REQUEST A TRADE TO SEND STACEY DASH TO THE CAUCASIANS TO ACQUIRE BILL CLINTON TO THE BLACKS,” tweeted someone named Mr.Controversy.

Samuel L. Jackson, an ardent supporter of President Obama, also tweeted his surprise Tuesday that Dash plans to vote for Romney — although the potty-mouthed actor kept it clean.

“Wait, did Stacey Dash Really endorse Romney today?! REALLY????! Is she CRA...........??!” Jackson wrote.

Dash said getting bashed on Twitter “saddened and shocked” her. But plenty of Twitter users also came to her defense — and she mentioned that veep candidate Ryan called her Tuesday.

“He said, ‘Thank you so much for your support,’ and that I was brave, and they support me, and I thought that was so generous and kind,” Dash said.

A former Obama supporter in 2008, she told Morgan that she decided to switch parties after seeing the Romneys on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

“They spoke to me, and they seemed authentic and genuine about what they said about this country, about the need for us to be united and move forward,” Dash said."



Beyonce Says "Deuces" to Playing Star Role in Clint Eastwood's New Movie

 
If you were one of the millions of fans SO ANXIOUS to see Beyonce return to the big screen as the star in Clint Eastwood’s remake of “A Star is Born", then sorry to tear your poor little hearts out but....Rrrippp!! Multiple sources are now reporting that the new mommy and superstar songstress has exited out of the film.





"Beyoncé made an announcement on E! News on Tuesday that although she was looking forward to working with Eastwood, she had to drop out of the movie because her busy schedule just wouldn’t allow it.

According to 31-year-old Beyoncé, “I was looking forward to the production of A Star Is Born and the opportunity to work with Clint Eastwood. For months we tried to coordinate our schedules to bring this remake to life but it was just not possible. Hopefully in the future we will get a chance to work together.”
