REPORT: NeNe Leakes INKS $1 MILLION Contract For “RHOA” Season 6, Now BRAVO’S HIGHEST Paid HOUSEWIFE!
Apr 12th

It pays very well to be a Bravo Housewife…at least for NeNe Leakes. Reports are surfacing that the reality star has signed on for season six "RHOA" for a cool million bucks! Get the deets inside…..
During season four of "RHOA" when Nene Leakes first uttered "I’m very rich", many viewers gave her the side-eye. Fast forward to season six, Nene is collecting tv checks from "Glee", "The New Normal" and just signed a contract with BRAVO for a reported Million dollars (and that doesn’t even include her bonuses!). It turns out she is "very rich."
According to Radar Online, a source with intimate knowledge of the season 6 contracts said, "NeNe is the one viewers watch. She knows that, Bravo knows that and that’s why they gave her a raise."
So how did the other housewives respond to the news? Radar’s source tells them, “Everyone gets it, NeNe is the favorite, but they’re still jealous, of course. They wish they could earn what NeNe makes because they don’t think she would be nearly as popular without fighting with them."
Though NeNe seemed to be burning the candle at both ends for season 5 as she commuted between Atlanta and LA, she’s really happy with the way things are working out. The site’s source says, “She likes being on the show. NeNe is really happy with the New Normal and Glee, where she can be a real actress, but she knows her bread and butter comes from Bravo and that’s why she’s coming back, ‘cause she can’t turn the money down!”
By the way, all of the "RHOA" cast members have reportedly officially signed on for another season.
Congrats NeNe!
The Real Housewives of Atlanta airs Sundays on Bravo at 8/7c.
CELBUSPAWNS: T.I.’s Daughter Deyjah’s New Sitcom Moves Forward + Zoe Kravitz Nabs Jewelry Line + Reginae Gets OFFICIAL Contract With Young Money
Feb 27th

Reginae Carter just made her Young Money contract official. Check out what the star in the making posted last night from her pop Lil Wayne, plus other celebuspawns like Deyjah Harris & Zoe Kravitz nabbing their own ish…
Lil Wayne’s oldest kiddie Reginae (pictured above out and about this week with her mom Toya Wright) has been talking about a singing career, fashion career and literary career on her Instagram for a while now. Reports came out a few weeks ago that ‘Nae landed a book deal with Cash Money Content. Now, she’s posted a message from her CEO dad saying he just finalized her (and her bestie LoLo’s) contract as the newest signees of Young Money:

She said: "Yaaaassssss The happiest day of my lifeeeee…They ain’t ready suhh"
Who says nepotism only exists in the corporate world? The cutie teen, who is also a cheerleader at her school, left the OMG Girlz a few years ago as her mom wanted her to focus more on her school work. I guess it’s all good now, because she’s got her won deal on a big label. And she’s already helping design the YMCMB Princess fashion line for girls. Must be nice…

Lenny Kravitz & Lisa Bonet’s daughter, Zoe Kravitz, is launching her own jewelry line for Swarovski Crystallized. The 23-year-old actress, who was spotted above arriving at the Chateau Marmont in West Hollywood late kast night, will be creating a 9-piece collection of bracelets, necklaces, rings and earrings incorporating her birthstones, turquoise and tanzanite, and other Swarovski Elements. And it will all be inspired by her travels.
Zoe told WWD:
”I wanted it to feel organic and fun. Something that would allow each person to make it their own. I was inspired by places I want to travel such as India and Morocco. Those countries have such vivid landscapes so I wanted to pull in colour from there.”
The line will range from -4 and will hit Swarovski Crystallized stores in New York, London & Austria, as well as on their website.

And finally, rapper T.I.’s youngest daughter, Deyjah, is moving forward with her own sitcom. Back in December, it was first reported that the youngin, who often appears on her dad’s VH1 reality show "TI & Tiny: A Family Hustle", landed a new Atlanta-based sitcom called "All For MyLove." It also stars Oprah‘s Goddaughter, Hannah Cartwright.
The show is about a coming of age story about a girl, named MyLove (don’t ask), who is trying to make it in the industry. Deyjah will play troubled teen Yasmin, while Hannah will play Chelsea, MyLove’s best friend.
And today, an open casting call wa announced to fill other roles of the show. Here’s the synopsis:
Mylove, leaves the UK to live with her brother after her father dies. Mylove’s brother Quentin is a music manager and has accomplished many successes for his artists. In order to obtain his inheritance, Quentin must secure a successful singing career for Mylove.
Once in the states, Mylove begins attending the Jewels Private School Of The Arts where she befriends many like minded kids. Yasmine, a 12 year old with a troubled past, 11 year old Chelsea, Quentin’s youngest artists Jabias, who starts to form a crush on Mylove, smart and business minded 12 year old named Sheldon, shy yet skillful 12 year old rapper Young D, plus many more interesting characters.
And since at least one casting call is going down March 16th in Bartlett, TN, it looks like this sitcom is a go. Check otut he trailer below:

|
”It’s Kinda Like Breaking Up…”
Ma$e discussed his standing with Diddy and Bad Boy Records in a recent interview with MTV. The Harlem-born emcee revealed that Diddy finally set him free from his contract and he is now pondering his options as to his next career move. “I’ve been in that contract for 16 years,” he said. “Yeah, the other day he let me out of it, so big shout-outs to Diddy, I guess he woke up feeling good and he wanted to do something good.” “At this point, I don’t really want to be under nobody from the aspect of being tied in a long, long contract,” he said. “It’s kinda like breaking up; you don’t want to jump into a new relationship.” “I’ma have to go somewhere. I would entertain that,” Ma$e said about the possibility of joining Kanye’s G.O.O.D. Music label. “I love Kanye, I love what he does musically, I love his ability to push the envelope. I like to be around people that’s not afraid to be different.” |
Blake Griffin Say Terrell Owens Begged Clippers Coaches For A 10-Day Contract
Dec 11th
The level of struggle Terrell Owens is going through right now incredible. The former NFL wide receiver was cut by the Seattle Seahawks before the start of the season and has been unable to land on a team since. Now, Blake Griffin of the L.A. Clippers says T.O. was begging for an NBA gig over the summer.
Griffin dropped dime on Owens’ plan B of stressing the Clippers coaches for a shot at playing in the Assocation. “Terrell Owens is always — he was at our practice facility this summer, begging coaches for a 10-day contract,” said Griffin said on the Dan Patrick Show, NBC sports reports.
To his credit, Owens did play basketball at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga and knows his way around the court. However, he is 39, had a torn ACL and took an L in a one on one game versus streetballer, who also happened to be a little person, which was caught on video. That’s without mentioning the personal and financial troubles he has been in the news for, including getting cut from an Indoor Football League team and revealing in child support documents that he earned only an hour while trying to make the Seahawks.
It’s a shame to see a once great player go out in what clearly are not the terms he desired. Damn homie.

Drake’s Management Team Facing Breach Of Contract Lawsuit
Jul 30th
drake
There’s something shady going on in Drake’s team, so says a lawsuit filed in a New York court, last week. While Drizzy is not named in the suit, he is the focus of legal action brought on by James “Jas” Prince, who is the son of Rap-A-Lot Records CEO, J. Prince.
Prince, is credited for discovering the 25-year-old and helping to deliver him to Lil Wayne. Now that October’s Very Own is one of the biggest rap stars in the game— and about to renegotiate his contract— Prince feels that he is owed compensation for his work.
According to Prince “on or about 2007 /2008,” he entered into an oral agreement with Drake’s manager, Cortez Bryant, and Wayne’s manager to “develop and exploit Drake’s entertainment services together and split profits therefrom accordingly.” Prince and his father handled the business side of the agreement, but once Bryant signed Drake to his management company, Aspire Music Group, he was subsequently fazed out of the deal. As a result, in July of 2009, Prince negotiated a settlement agreement, offering him a share of Aspire’s profits. In the years since, Prince alleges that Aspire has not upheld their end of the bargain. Additionally, he claims that a lawyer for Young Money Entertainment didn’t pay Drake and has therefore “failed to protect the main asset of the Settlement Agreements.”
Prince’s attorney, James McMillan, said that his client doesn’t know how much he is entitled to receive. ”We have no idea how much is owed because they are hiding behind one guy,” he told the New York Daily News.
Drake has yet to speak on the matter, but his YMCMB family is pretty used to legal action. Wayne has been the subject of several suits, so he can probably help him handle this situation.

ESPN Decides Not To Renew Rob Parker’s Contract After RGIII Comments
Jan 8th
Posted by admin in News
No comments
Rob Parker will not be asked back to ESPN. The sports network announced today that the commentator— who questioned Washington Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III’s “blackness” because he’s in an interracial relationship—will not have his contract renewed.
“Rob Parker’s contract expired at years’ end. Evaluating his work and our needs, including his recent RGIII comments, we decided not to renew his deal,” ESPN spokesman Mike Soltys said in a statement.
During his appearance on First Take last month, Parker labeled Griffin a “cornball brother” because he’s engaged to, Rebecca Liddicoat, a white woman. “We all know he has a white fiancée. There was all this talk about he’s a Republican.”
One day after making the statements, ESPN suspended Parker for 30 days.
According to USA Today, Parker spoke to a Detroit TV station about his words, and said that higher-ups were aware of what he was going to say during a production meeting.
Parker has not yet responded to being fired.
As for Griffin, his season hit a rough patch when the rookie sustained a torn LCL in his right knee over the weekend. He is expected to undergo surgery in the coming days.
