Never, ever wondered how it feels like so cause I don’t need to learn the way how d*ck suckers live but here Michael found a great article about 5 women explaining their sex stories with your favorite athletes. One of the bi*ches even believe man she’s with will divorce her wife to be with her. Crazy? Hell yes… These women are hoes and still defending theirselves being beatiful, wanted and intelligent. God bless them with some brain.

The funniest part of the article when one of the girls comes and tells 100% of black athletes cheat while 90% whites are twisting. Now we should ask ain’t it racist? LOL Click to read Robert Littal’s interview with these 5 chicks. The story isn’t finished there, also two other parts about your fav athletes’ sex life is on the Black Sports Online exclusive articles.

You have already heard about Sony’s new whiye PSP series ad. The advert, which has appeared on billboards in the Netherlands, shows a white woman gripping a black woman by the jaw and features the slogan: “PlayStation Portable White is coming.” Many websites and forum posters have protested that the advert is racist and are campaigning for its removal.

A Sony spokesperson stated that the ad wasn’t published because of racist issues but to mention color difference of the old PSP and the new one:

“The marketing campaign for the launch of the White PSP in the Benelux focuses on the contrast between the Black PSP model and the new Ceramic white PSP model.”

Thanks really much Juicy News for emailing and asking for attention.

Did Sony go too far and be racist with this ad? If you think the answer is yes or no, please explain why.

According to Contact Music, Beyonce is not feeling good about her looks is walking one step ahead of her talent. I usually don”t believe everything they write but there is a quote mentioned to be Beyonce’s:

…The 24-year-old says, “It’s frustrating, because sometimes, when you are attractive, people don’t acknowledge that you are talented as well. “I mean, I’m a songwriter, I’m a producer, I have a strong voice, I’m a dynamic performer. Sometimes people forget that.”… (Continue reading…)

It’s really weird to hear that from Beyonce. If the girl don’t wanna get attention with her looks, why she keeps trying to act like the butt shaker? Yes she is one of the greatest performers and a really good vocal of our time but she keeps wasting her time making songs like Signs and Naughty Girl. Moreover, looks always get attention, that’s one piece of success. Others are talent and personality. Nobody can deny it.

Mentioned on The Rap Up first.

Do you like Beyonce better for the way she looks? And what kind of stuff she should bring our ears with  her upcoming album?

Today, earlier hours of the day, Lil’ Kim released from Philadelphia Prison. Although I’m not a Kim fan, happy to see her free. Looks like she gained some weight while she was inside.

The rapper, who served nearly 10 months for lying about a shootout outside a New York radio station, walked out of the jail looking glamorous in sunglasses and an all-white, cleavage-baring outfit. Carrying a balloon and a bouquet of white roses, she waved to dozens of cheering onlookers — some carrying signs that said, “Welcome Home, Queen Bee” — before getting into a silver Rolls Royce. The car pulled into a nearby parking lot where she re-emerged to greet the throng. (Continue reading…)

If you also want to see the full media coverup of release, use link above for NBC’s Lil Kim report. There is also a video of her leaving the prison.

Jewel magazine’s summer issue covers Rihanna and Kelly Rowland and we got both of the photoshots. Kelly is fabolous as always and Rihanna is back to oldies, clothing and trying to look alike vintage legends.

Which oldie version of Rihanna did you like most? Dorothe Dandridge, Billie Holliday, Lena Horne or Diano Ross? I’ll give my two cents for Lena version of the girl. Diana Ross tribute is too hard for me to hit.

Janet Jackson was at Powerhouse recently as a suprize guest waering a “JD’s” signature belly ring. And a new promo picture for 20 years old is out on Ebay. Thanks Janet Planet for the pictures.

The Essence Music Festival’s arrival in Houston is bittersweet.But the 12th annual Essence Music Festival, which runs Saturday through Monday at Reliant Park, still has a celebratory vibe. The music talent remains top-flight — R&B stars such as Chris Brown, Jamie Foxx, Mary J. Blige and Earth Wind & Fire, and rappers like LL Cool J, Doug E. Fresh and Slick Rick will perform. There are anticipated reunions: Troubled R&B star Bobby Brown will rejoin New Edition, which he left 20 years ago. And funky, jazzy hip-hop ensemble the Brand New Heavies has reunited with singer N’Dea Davenport. (Continue   reading…)

Here are some pictures from festival’s first day:
