Lady Gaga Rants On Twitter

lady-gaga-13

From USA Today:

Lady Gaga’s new single Do What U Want, featuring R. Kelly, was released at midnight. In the hours before the new song arrived, Lady Gaga did what she wanted — addressing some of the badmouthing that’s been done about her of late.

In a series of tweets, she used all caps to right the charge made against her. And then she made her own comment, often using her theme of “doing what you want” as the answer.

• “MADONNA HATES GAGA SHES OVER … i dont need anybodys permission to be remembered. I will be. Whether they like it or not”

• “APPLAUSE didn’t DEBUT AT #1! KATY IS BETTER THAN HER! … I write for the music not the charts”

• “GOD HATES LADY GAGA! … ill always fight for equality, got my own relationship with God”

• “LADY GAGA IS ON DRUGS! HER CAREER IS OVER! (been an addict for 10years) #WriteWhatUWant My recovery is a daily battle”

• “LADY GAGA IS A HERMAPHRODITE! … #DoWhatUWantWithMyBody”

• “LADY GAGA IS A REDUCTIVE MADONNA COPY! SHE’S OVER NOW! #WriteWhatUWant #SayWhatUWantBoutMe #ImNotSorry”

• “LADY GAGA IS FAT NOW! #DoWhatUWantWithMyBody”

She also released the “official” cover for Do What U Want, and it has nothing to do with moss and everything to do with a Miley-Nicki-esque shot of Gaga’s backside in a thong.

TLC’s Chilli: Usher Never Cheated On Me

usher-chilli

From US Weekly:

TLC’s Rozonda “Chilli” Thomas has a confession to make: The girl group singer’s two-year relationship with Usher was not, in fact, the inspiration for his 2004 hit album Confessions.

“We were together when he recorded that album,” Thomas clarified in an exclusive interview with Us Weekly. “All of those songs on Confessions, that was about Jermaine Dupri’s situation. Usher was just singing it. But people kind of bought into it, it was just the timing of our breakup when the album came out.”

“So people assumed that album was about us, but it was not,” she continued. “And Usher and I weren’t oil and water. We broke up because I guess it was that time or whatever,” she added wistfully: “he was that real love for me.”

Thomas, who, together with Tionne “T-Boz” Watkins and the late Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes, formed 90s mega girl group TLC, even admitted that she will “always love” Usher, despite the fact that the pair called it quits on their relationship in 2003.

“In any relationship, even when it came to my relationship with Usher, when it was time to make a move, I had to do that,” she said. “I don’t care how much my heart was hurting, sometimes you’re just supposed to be with people for a reason and it’s not always a lifetime. Even if you want it to be, it just doesn’t work out that way.”

“But I’ll always love him, forever, because he was my first adult love, a real love,” she added. “But we’re cool, we’re really cool. There’s no hard feelings, nothing like that. It’s all good.”

Cee-Lo Green Cleared Of Sexual Assualt….And Charged With Possession Of Ecstasy

Frederick-M.-Brown

From TMZ:

The L.A. County D.A. will CLEAR CeeLo Green of charges he sexually assaulted a woman by allegedly slipping a drug in her drink … TMZ has learned. CeeLo will, however, be charged with the felony of furnishing ecstasy … law enforcement sources tell TMZ.

Our sources say the D.A. will officially REJECT the sexual assault case this morning. A woman had claimed she and CeeLo went to a sushi joint in downtown L.A. more than a year ago. She told cops the star of “The Voice” had slipped ecstasy in her drink and the next thing she knew she was naked in his bed.

Law enforcement sources tell us, authorities had problems with the woman’s story … one of which was that she and CeeLo had been dating for months and had already been intimate.

We’re told CeeLo not only denied the allegations … he encouraged the D.A. and the LAPD to fully investigate. In the end, we’ve learned the D.A. will reject the sexual assault case because of insufficient evidence.

As for the drug charge … law enforcement sources tell us CeeLo will be charged with 1 count of furnishing ecstasy … a felony, and he may be arraigned as early as this afternoon.

As we previously reported, the woman claimed to have a tape recording of CeeLo talking about the incident.

Although our sources say CeeLo never said anything about slipping ecstasy in her drink, he did reference the drug. It appears the D.A. views the tape as a confession to drug use … thus the charge.

We’re told the criminal complaint will NOT allege the singer had any criminal intent to harm the woman when he allegedly shared ecstasy with her.

As for punishment … we’re told most people with such a first offense get probation.

Master P’s Wife Files For Divorce

sonya-miller-master-p

From TMZ:

Sonya Miller filed divorce docs — obtained by TMZ — in which she seeks to end her 24-year marriage based on the standard “irreconcilable differences.”

The couple has 4 minor children — she wants full custody. They also have famous adult son, Romeo.

Sonya wants spousal support.

This one’s a little weird. Back in 2011, Sonya went to court to get child support. At the time we thought they were already divorced, but now we learn no one ever pulled the trigger and filed divorce documents. So she did it now, but we’re told they’ve been separated for a long time.

BAD GYAL: X-Factor’s Tamera Foster Caught Shoplifting Makeup From Boots

foster

From Daily Mail:

X Factor contestant Tamera Foster was reportedly caught shoplifting make-up from Boots just a month after her first audition for the show.

The 16-year-old singer and two of her friends were spotted by security guards trying to leave the store in Gravesend, Kent, on July 24th, according to the Daily Mirror.

However, after being held by security guards, bosses at the store decided to deal with teenager Tamera through ‘restorative justice’, the paper quotes Kent Police as saying.

In this case, a manager at the store would have asked Tamera why she stole the products, and apologise for the incident rather than getting the police involved and pressing charges.

Tamera is also believed to have paid for the products she attempted to steal in full.

Since the incident, Tamera is said to have issued a grovelling apology to X Factor bosses, telling them: ‘I’m so so sorry.’

Earlier this month, Tamera’s boyfriend Joshante Amihyia, 20, claimed that she stole him from another woman.
He said: ‘What she wants, she gets, and when I was in a relationship, she wanted me.

‘We were texting each other and we kissed several times behind my girlfriend’s back, although we didn’t sleep together.’

Teen Reportedly Had Dead Baby In A Victoria’s Secret Bag At NYC

NBC New York reports:

A 17-year-old girl was caught shoplifting at the Herald Square Victoria’s Secret with a dead baby in her bag Thursday afternoon, the NYPD says.

A security guard at the 34th Street store pulled aside the girl and her 17-year-old friend under suspicion of shoplifting about 1:30 p.m. The guard got a whiff of a strong odor coming from the girl’s bag and found the body when he looked inside. The baby didn’t have signs of trauma, sources said. An autopsy on the baby was inconclusive pending further study, according to the medical examiner.

The girl told police that she was about 6 months pregnant and miscarried the baby Wednesday. Police haven’t charged her with any crime in relation to the child, but she and her friend are both charged with petit larceny and criminal possession of stolen property.

One of the girl’s Brooklyn neighbors, Ricardo Salazar, said she didn’t even know the girl was pregnant until police officers interviewed him Thursday.

“They asked me if I had seen a lump or if she was recently was pregnant and I told them ‘I couldn’t really tell,’ because she was always a little heavy” he said. “But in a way, I guess she was.”

The girl, who has another child, was taken to Bellevue Hospital for evaluation.
