Music News
From MTV:
“…according “frequent 1D collaborator/pal Ed Sheeran, the album’s already finished. Though, for the first time, it won’t feature any of his tunes — not because he wasn’t asked to contribute, but because he’s just been too busy trying to wrap up his new record.
“I haven’t done any songs on this one; I’ve actually kind of cut myself from giving any people songs at the moment, because I want to make my album,” Sheeran said. “I was approached, and it wasn’t so much a ‘No,’ it was just a ‘I want to write tunes for myself at the moment.’
“Once my album’s done, then we’ll see,” he added. “But their album is already finished.”

UPDATE: Mister Cee Addresses His Recent ‘Male Hooker’ Arrest On Hot 97…..AND DENIES EVERYTHING
UPDATE: We now have video.
****************************************
From AllHipHop, where you can read the full write-up:
Over the weekend Mister Cee, a DJ at New York’s Hot 97 radio station, was arrested in Brooklyn for allegedly trying to solicit a prostitute. The prostitute turned out to be an undercover police officer, but according Cee the cop was women and not a man as previously reported.
“I am not gay,” Cee told his co-workers Peter Rosenberg, Cipha Sounds, Ebro, and K Foxx this morning on Hot 97. “I was approached by a female undercover cop.”
Cee went on to say that the original story reported by the New York Daily News cited that the cop was a women, but at some point the news reports changed to say the arresting officer was a man.
When Ebro and Rosenberg pointed out that the area where Cee was arrested in is known for the solicitation of transgender prostitutes Cee said it was just “dumb luck” that he was in that site at the time.
Cee admitted that he does regularly engage in soliciting female prostitutes and paying strippers for sex, but reinforced that he does not seek out men or transvestites.
“I have an addiction to not only prostitution. I have an addiction to getting the quickie,” said Cee.
Mister Cee has also apparently suspended himself because of the matter.

Lil Wayne, Music News
No love lost, apparently. From MTV:
“What [Jason Collins’ coming out] does for sports? It’s opening a lot of doors and it’s showing that it’s a fair world out there,” Wayne told MTV News on Saturday morning (May 4) when we sat with him in Miami at a launch party for his new Spectre by Supra sneaker, the Chimera. “Just to see how many people came to his support and things like that, that’s a pretty fair world out there. Be you.”
With his beloved L.A. Lakers out of contention, the South Beach resident now believes that LeBron James and the Miami Heat are the clear-cut favorite to take the basketball crown. Clearly his past spat with the team hasn’t affected how he analyzes the game. “C’mon man, you know you can’t beat that machine out here in Miami man. Nobody can beat that machine. I have yet to see someone beat that machine,” he said. “I think the [San Antonio] Spurs will give them a run for their money but, that machine, the Miami Heat.”
