Why Prince thinks the Internet is no bueno

July 6, 2010 | Category:MUSIC,QUOTED | Author: Josh Cox

Prince wants us all to know that he thinks the Internet is over and that silly things like iTunes will never make it. Via his interview with the Daily Mirror:

 
The internet’s completely over. I don’t see why I should give my new music to iTunes or anyone else. They won’t pay me an advance for it and then they get angry when they can’t get it.

The internet’s like MTV. At one time MTV was hip and suddenly it became outdated. Anyway, all these computers and digital gadgets are no good. They just fill your head with numbers and that can’t be good for you.
 

This is coming from the same dude who said the party would be over in 2000, zero, zero. I partied the other night and it’s 2010.

B-T-dub, his THIRTY-THIRD album, called 20Ten, hits iTunes stores only later this year.

Big ups to Prince!

Serena Williams: ‘I have big boobs and this massive butt.’

July 6, 2010 | Category:QUOTED,SPORTS | Author: Josh Cox

After beating a bunch of chicks asses to win Wimbledon yet again, Serena Williams told People how she used to envy her sister Venus Williams’s body.

 
I’m super-curvy. I have big boobs and this massive butt. [Venus is] tall and she’s like a model and she fits everything.

I was growing up, wanting to be her, wanting to look like her, and I was always fitting in her clothes, but then one day I couldn’t. I was 23 when I realized that I wasn’t Venus. She’s totally different.

Personally, I love her big boobs and massive butt.

In a recent interview with Out magazine, Christina Aguilera admitted that she’s attracted to women:

 
My husband knows that I get into girls. I think it’s fun to be open and play. The line is real to me.

My husband and I check in with each other, but I definitely love women. I think they’re more attractive to the naked eye.

He’s my team mate in everything we do. He definitely makes life easier.
 

Just to clarify, she said her husband’s her “team mate” in “everything they do.” We all know what that means…

Drake

 
It’s a honor to make this dream come true for Wayne, and I’m excited to start my journey. I always say, if I would have put out an album that was poor quality, I think the leaks would have hurt me. Because a lot of the feedback has been great, it can only help.
 

Drake‘s first official studio album, “Thank Me Later,” hits stores June 15th, but it’s currently available for free downloads all over the Internets.

Mo’Nique talks open marriage, hairy legs

March 4, 2010 | Category:QUOTED | Author: Josh Cox

Mo'Nique

In an interview for Barbara Walters‘ upcoming Oscar special, comedian turned Oscar-nominated actress Mo’Nique discussed her open relationship with husband Sidney Hicks:

 
Let me say this: I have not had sex outside my marriage with Sidney. Could Sid have sex outside of his marriage with me? Yes. That’s not a deal-breaker. That’s not something that would make us say, ‘Pack your things and let’s end the marriage. What if it’s 20 times? So what? We’ve been best friends for over 25 years, and we truly know who we are. Oftentimes, people get into marriages and they don’t know who they’re laying next to. I’m very comfortable and secure with my husband.
 

A lot of Hollywood couples — the ones who manage to stay together — are rumored to have this same type of “open” marriage. Very interesting. Mo’Nique also talks about her hairy ass legs:

 
He loves the hairy legs, and if Sid likes the hairy legs, there you go. I tried shaving one time, and it was so uncomfortable and painful. I said never again would I do that to myself. I’m 42 and I’m very hairy.
 

He likes the hairy legs!? O_o

Whatever makes them happy…

Tyler Perry talks ‘Precious’

The highly-anticipated film “Precious” hits select theaters THIS FRIDAY, and I couldn’t be more excited!! In a recent interview, Tyler Perry opened up about his and Oprah’s involvement with the film, the buzz around it, and how it’s not just a film for black people. Check it out:

This is one of the first projects you decided to campaign for that isn’t one of your own. You’ve also teamed up with Oprah. How did that all come about? Did you know Lee Daniels before this movie?

Never met Lee. I sent my team up to Sundance, and they found the film. I started a new film company, and I wanted to find some new filmmakers and really push them. They found a great film and brought it to me, and I was blown away by it because it was so close to my childhood and how I grew up. Mo’Nique’s character was so close to my father. I watched it and called Oprah and asked her if she’d seen it. She said, “I have it in my purse, I haven’t watched it.” She watched it, and she’s like, “Tyler, this is so great. I’m so glad you’re doing this because people will get a chance to see it.” I said, “More people will get a chance to see it if we did it together,” and she said, “Let’s do it.” That’s when it became Oprah Winfrey and Tyler Perry presents.

In addition to promoting the film, what’s Oprah’s involvement? Promoting it in her magazines?

All of that, as well as pushing it through the Website and asking people to see it. It’s what we bring, and I think what Oprah brings more than anything is she makes it not just a movie for black people. She makes it a movie that everybody will be invited to and feel comfortable going to. I can cover the black folks. I can cover us! It is amazing to see what she will be able to do with that, because the film is universal. There are little girls who grew up in trailer parks who went through the exact same thing who are not black. It’ll all work out.

When you’re introducing this film to your audience, how are you going to present it so they don’t think it’s your production?

It’s starting with a huge warning, saying, first of all, I did not write or direct the film. It is not a Tyler Perry film. It’s gonna start with that warning. I know I got the grandmothers and the seniors who will go and see it right away and think it is something I’ve written and they’ll bring all the kids to see it, but I need all of them to understand, and you can help me with this, that this is not a Tyler Perry film, and I would not suggest that they bring their children to see it. Once that is said, my next move is letting them know why I felt the need to get involved, and that is because of my own life story.

You said this movie had a profound effect on you because you saw parts of your life in it. Now that you and Oprah are behind it, is there anything you plan to change or to enhance?

Nothing, not a thing. I think it’s all Lee’s vision and what he wanted it to be from the very beginning. The only thing I suggested and was a little adamant about was Mary J.’s song being involved, called ‘I See Color.’ That was still Lee’s decision, so that was all Lee.

Tyler also talks about his upcoming projects “For Colored Girls…” and “Why Did I Get Married Too?” in this interview, which you can finish reading here.

Diddy: ‘Whitney threw Bobby under the bus’

October 13, 2009 | Category:QUOTED | Author: Josh Cox

diddy

In a recent interview with the Big Boy’s Neighborhood radio show, Diddy stated that although he supports Whitney Houston‘s comeback, he feels that she basically threw Bobby Brown under the bus in her recent interviews.

Actually, this is exactly how Diddy put it: “Man, I rock for Whitney, but I don’t like the way she threw Bobby under the bus though. If we gon’ be smoking crack together at the same time, then that’s what we did and we did it and we shouldn’t have did it… but we can’t throw one under the bus.”

Dear Jesus, take the wheel. That is all.

“Well, I knew his intentions, and I knew he was standing up for art; and he told me before, when they said the nominees, he’s like, ‘You have this award.’ When they didn’t call my name, he was, like, completely shocked, and when he walked on the stage, I was like, ‘No, no, no!’ and then he spoke, and I was like, ‘Oh, no, no, no!’ But in the end, it ended up being a great night, and Taylor Swift did get her moment — and I didn’t have to make an acceptance speech.

Quoted: Lady Gaga “on a quest to kill Kanye West”

Lady Gaga

The storyline is that Kanye is on one end of the stage and I’m on the other, and the whole show, we are trying to get to where each other is. I want something that he has, which is the fame, and he wants something that I have, which is home, and my humble beginnings. So we battle each other throughout the entire performance to steal each other’s spaces. So I’m essentially on a quest to kill Kanye West to steal his fame.

Obama: ‘I was black before the election’

September 21, 2009 | Category:QUOTED | Author: Josh Cox

President Obama

President Barack Obama has to be the most outspoken president, at least of my lifetime, and I love him for it. He’s always hip with current pop culture events and never hesitates to make a comment.

Fresh off of calling everybody’s favorite super narcissistic rapper Kanye West a ‘jackass,’ President Obama has now responded to a statement made by former president (and huge Obama supporter) Jimmy Carter, in which he said he believes that much of the opposition to our current present is due to racism.

“I think it is important to realize that I was actually black before the election,” Obama responded in an interview that is scheduled to air tonight on CBS’s The Late Show with David Letterman.

I love the fact that President Obama can make us laugh without even trying.

Quoted: Chris Brown speaks out

Chris Brown

Chris Brown released a lengthy statement to People magazine early Monday in response to an answer he gave in an interview that suggested he did not remember what happened between he and Rihanna last February. Here’s an excerpt:

Of course I remember what happened … But it was and still is a blur. And yes, I still can’t believe it happened because it is not me or who I am, nor is what happened like anything I have ever done before … I am ashamed of and sorry for what happened that night and I wish I could relive that moment and change things, but I can’t. I take full responsibility for my actions. What I have to do now is to prove to the world that this was an isolated incident and that is not who I am, and I intend to do so by my behavior now and in the future…

The statement is an attempt to clear up some misinformation reported by several news outlets in regard to an excerpt from his exclusive interview with CNN’s Larry King, which was taped this weekend.

Chris Brown’s first televised interview since the infamous domestic “assault” on his former girlfriend Rihanna will air on Wednesday, September 2nd, at 8 p.m. CST on CNN’s Larry King Live.
