TreySongzBETAwards11ShowEIyLIPNydnCl1

 

Reports TMZ:

Songz (real name Tremaine Neverson) had an album release party on August 21 at a gentleman’s club in Queens. According to police, somewhere between 4:00 and 4:15 AM on the 22nd, Trey became involved in an altercation inside the club.

Cops described the incident this way in the criminal complaint: “Tremaine Neverson, did throw a sum of United States currency at the complainant and said sum of United States currency struck the complainant’s left eye causing substantial pain to her left eye.”

It is unclear if the woman in question was … how do we say this nicely … a stripper.

Songz was not arrested that night, but rather a month later for misdemeanor assault. Songz had a court date in NY on November 1 and an order of protection was issued. He is due back in court in February.

We reached out to a rep for Songz, but have yet to hear back.

@Example & DJ Wire (@SamuelWire) Acquire 2013 Summer Residency At @MallorcaRocks

Rocks’ favourite Example is set to make a triumphant return to the Balearics with longstanding collaborator DJ Wire, for an amazing run of 12 exclusive shows on dates across the summer only at Mallorca Rocks.

Example said: “The reason for the residency and why I keep coming back for more is quite simple. Whether it’s my live show or the We Are Rockstars crowds, the hotels are packed and the atmosphere is incredible. I’ve started on new material and have some big collaborations in the pipeline. DJ Wire is working on new material too. We’ll change our set over the summer but it’s the best of my back catalogue mashed up with whatever huge tunes are around for summer. It’s not often you can spend all day on the beach and then jump on stage and party with a few thousand holidaymakers. Honestly, playing the Mallorca Rocks Hotel – it feels like home for the summer.

With 12 shows in total during his exclusive season residency it’s going to be one seriously hot summer for Example.

Reports Bossip:

“Chris needs to stop taking advantage before she’s gone forever and this time she ain’t playing,” a well connected source reveals. “She loves him so much and he knows that but her heart is involved and he’s taking advantage.

“I ain’t saying she done with him just yet,” a source says, adding “that’s going to be hard for her and probably one of the most hardest things she will ever do in her life but she is tired of the bulls**t and she’s realizing who the f**k she is and how life must go on even if it ain’t with the love of her life.”

On December 12, Rihanna let the world know her relationship with Chris was fizzling out when she first tweeted:

Rick Ross Claims He Accidentally Inherited Rap Alias In Leaked Deposition Docs (Depo Docs)

1rickrossdepo1

Reports Sohh:

According to the documents, Ross’ rap alias stems from sports and not notorious former drug lord Freeway Ricky Ross.

When questioned about how he decided to use “Rick Ross” as a professional name, the rapper unspooled a tale beginning when he was a football player at Miami Carol City Senior High School in the mid-1990s. Ross testified that he and his fellow offensive linemen called each other “Big East,” since they all wanted to attend the University of Miami, then a member of the Big East Conference. “That was my first nickname,” he said during the January 12 deposition. Ross then explained, “When I became All American, by the time I was in sophomore, I was the Big Boss. The Biggest Boss. That was a nickname.” (The Smoking Gun)

He also claimed the “Rick Ross” moniker indirectly sprouted from his “Big Boss” nickname.

At some point following his 1994 graduation, Ross testified, “a friend” mistook his nickname to be “Rick Ross,” not “Big Boss.” The deposition does not further identify this purported friend or the level of his hearing deficiencies. “And when he said, when he brought it up to me, it became my moniker. From Big East to the Big Boss, the Biggest Boss for my senior year, I was All American. When I finished high school and pursued music, it came into Rick Ross. So this is ’96.” (The Smoking Gun)

Cheryl Cole (@CherylCole) Sues The X-Factor

Cheryl Cole is MAD, literally. From Perez Hilton:

The Girls Aloud singer, who was famously axed from the judges panel of the American version of The X Factor before the first season of the show even premiered, only to be replaced by Nicole Scherzinger, let Simon Cowell have it via text message when she initially heard the news, but now, has fired off a lawsuit against the producers of the reality series for $2.3 million!

According to legal documents filed in El Lay Superior Court against Blue Orbit Productions, Chezza entered a pay-or-play agreement with them back in April of 2011, which guaranteed her $1.8 million for the first season, $2 million for a second, and living expenses, wardrobe, styling, and $15,000 per month housing!

However, upon her exit from the series, all she received was her $1.8 million, and now, is looking to receive not only damages “in excess of $2.3 million,” but also interest at the legal rate AND court costs!

@NiallOfficial & @Louis_Tomlinson Of @OneDirection Pulled Over By NYPD

Footage courtesy of Stupid Famous People. It’s presumed that they were currently working on their forthcoming 3D film.

Niall Horan and Louis Tomlinson of One Direction were out filming segments for a video in New York City today, but when Louis was caught popping out of the sun roof the NYPD wasn’t very happy about it. They pulled the car over and asked a lot of questions, but once they realized who the boys were, they let them go… but not until Louis agreed to take a photo with one of the officers. Haha!
