World AIDS Day 2006: Stop AIDS, Keep the Promise

Ladies (and fellas), especially my sisters (and brothers), it's the wrong day and age to be so irresponsible as to be sleeping with your mate unprotected unless you're married (or in a long term commitment-and by long I mean more than 2 months!) to them. Please don't let the fact that he takes you to the movies and dinner a couple times a month be the reason that you put your life in jeopardy. No one is responsible for your health AND LIFE but you, and there are so many liars out there nowadays that you need to be SAFE! You'll know he really loves you if he's willing to keep it on.

World AIDS Day, December 1st, is an opportunity for people worldwide to unite in the fight against HIV and AIDS. This year, it's up to you, me and us to stop the spread of HIV and end prejudice. The statistics don't lie...

The Evolution

Ciara is releasing her sophomore album effort The Evolution Dec 5th. The album isn't too bad. Shockingly there's no sign of Timbaland or Missy anywhere, but the album surely shows the more mature side of the singer without their help. Poor girl clearly got her feelings hurt and shares some of her feelings toward her past relationship with Bow Wow, but I'm sure she'll find a replacement that's over 5 feet soon enough. I put a couple of songs over there for you to listen to. Promise is definitely the favorite but I do want to make it clear that there will never be another Aaliyah ;)

She Ain't Desperate No Mo'

I still think heffa need to recognize he's Black and not "French," but whatever. Let the media frenzy begin...

From E Online:

She's not desperate and unlikely to be a housewife anytime in the near future, but Eva Longoria is a bride-to-be.

The actress confirmed exclusively to E!'s own Ryan Seacrest that she had accepted a "perfect, personal and sweet" proposal from her boyfriend, San Antonio Spurs star Tony Parker.

"I always promised you that you would hear it first, and here we are...I wanted to tell you that Tony and I are engaged," Longoria said in an early-morning phone call to Seacrest, a longtime friend of the couple.

Longoria said Parker surprised her by grabbing a late flight to Los Angeles Wednesday, after the Spurs played the Utah Jazz. When she returned home from work around midnight, he was there waiting for her, surrounded by candles and rose petals.

Unlike some of her fellow celebrity brides, Longoria vowed that her nuptials would not be shrouded by secrecy.

"You know, Ryan, we aren't going to be crazy hush-hush about this and be dramatic trying to protect it, because we are so excited," she said. "It's going to be huge and beautiful, and we just can't wait."

The Desperate Housewives star, 31, and Parker, 24, met in November 2004, and began dating in January 2005.

Though they endured a brief rough patch in September, their romance bounced back shortly thereafter, with Longoria traveling to Parker's native France in October to watch him play in exhibition games.

The twosome are planning a summer wedding. It will be the second trip down the aisle for Longoria, who was previously wed to General Hospital star Tyler Christopher, and the first for Parker.

Well Thank the Lord!

Britney Spears finally decided to come to her damn senses for a change and do something smart. Now the next question is, how much money is this fool about to get from her? And is he going to have the nerve to go back to Shar? Popozao Mr Federline!


Britney Spears Files for Divorce in LA

The Associated Press

LOS ANGELES -- Britney Spears filed for divorce Tuesday from Kevin Federline, officials said.

The Los Angeles County Superior Court filing cites "irreconcilable differences," said court spokeswoman Kathy Roberts.

Spears, 24, married Federline, 28, in 2004. They have a 1-year-old son, Sean Preston, and an infant son who was born Sept. 12. The divorce papers identify the baby as Jayden James Federline.

A message left with Spears' attorney and Ferderline's representatives were not immediately returned.

Spears married Federline eight months after ending a 55-hour Las Vegas marriage to her childhood friend, Jason Alexander. Her second marriage has provided endless fodder for tabloids, which have speculated frequently that the union was in trouble.

The filing comes just a day after Spears, back in shape after the birth of her second child, made a surprise appearance on David Letterman's "Late Show" in New York by popping up behind him as he was sitting at his desk.

Federline appeared in the movie "You Got Served" and performed as a backup dancer for singer Justin Timberlake, Spears' former boyfriend. He was previously involved with actress Shar Jackson of TV's "Moesha." Federline and Jackson have two children.

Irreplacable

Concrete Loop found the premiere of Beyonce's latest single "Irreplacable". Check out the video:



I think it's okay. I like the toned-down Beyonce waaaay better than the over the top stuff.

$1 Makeup, Oh My!

Thanks to a tip from my Soror, I found that Bloomingdale's affordable makeup line E.L.F. is selling most of their makeup for $1 for a limited time. I'm not sure if everything is on there, but there are plenty of deals. Enjoy ladies!

Desperate Again

So I kinda feel bad for Eva since she's been on EVERY show in America professing her love for this man, but I think he needs to be with somebody who can admit to his Blackness...

Eva Longoria, Tony Parker Split Up

Desperate Housewives star Eva Longoria and San Antonio Spurs point guard Tony Parker have split up, a source close to the couple tells PEOPLE.

"They did break up. It's amicable," the source says, adding, "They are talking and trying to figure the best course of action for their future. They are trying to work things out."

"It's distance and demanding careers and not living in same city," said the source. "It didn't happen yesterday. It's been going on for a while."

In an earlier statement issued by Longoria's rep Liza Anderson on Friday, she said, "Eva and Tony are going through a very difficult time right now, just like any other couple with extremely demanding careers."

REV RUN AND WIFE LOSE NEWBORN BABY

According to published reports, the newborn baby of former Run DMC rapper Rev Run and wife Justine has died.

TMZ.com reports that Justine gave birth Thursday (September 21), but the scene quickly turned to tragedy after their newborn girl was pronounced dead. When doctors delivered the baby via c-section, they learned that the baby girl was born with organs outside her body. The newborn died a short time later.

Justine's pregnancy was the cliffhanger on the MTV show last season. It generated intense interest among viewers who have been anxiously following the pregnancy and awaiting the birth.

TMZ reports that while MTV cameras were inside the hospital at the time of the birth, it is unknown if they were in the delivery room.

Rev. Run issued the following statement about the tragic death of his daughter to the Associated Press: "On Sept. 26, 2006, Victoria Anne Simmons for some unknown reason chose to come early and unfortunately did not survive," his statement said. "We must accept whatever is there and once you accept unconditionally, then everything is beautiful. Every pain has a purifying effect. So whatever comes your way, just be thankful. We see life in death and believe in the celebration of life in death."

Lost Without You

Here's Robin Thicke's single "Lost Without You." I think it's a beautiful song, and I believe that's his wife in the video. For any of you who actually paid to see Idlewild, she's Percival's love interest Angel.

He has a beautiful voice. Very reminiscent of Justin...
