Ms. Nina Says...............








'It's Friday you ain't got no job you ain't got ish to do.' Ha! Ha!

Happy Friday babies, y'all be safe.

Ashanti Takes Ms. Nina's Advice?














Ashanti has been taking some ones advice could it be Ms. Nina's?
I don't know but she is definitely giving us the less is more in the
make up department on the cover of Jet. I would have done a
little less color on the lips and the shot would have been perfect.
None the less she is looking beautiful. You go on then with yo
bad self!

50 Cents' House Burned Up!











The house that 50 cent went to court to have the mother of
his child and his 10 year old son put out of caught on fire today.
The house was completely burned and occupants had to be
taken to the hospital, no one was injured but the fire department
says the fire is 'suspicious'. This means they suspect arson,
could 50 be behind this that would really be a shame. I hope
his son wasn't in the home at the time because that would be
a disgrace.

Diddy Plays Daddy.











P. Diddy was out and about at an LA park playing with his
beautiful twin daughters before he attended game 5 of the
Lakers vs. Spurs at the Staples Center. That's what Ms. Nina
likes to see Mr. Combs being Daddy instead of Diddy, now
that's a good look.

Toni Braxton Focuses On Health.










Toni Braxton will end her two year run in Vegas to focus on her health.
Toni was taken to a hospital in April for medical reasons and she has
decided not to return to her Vegas show. It is still unclear what she
is suffering from but we wish her the best.

Kenneth `Babyface’ Edmonds To Be Dad Again!














Babyface, 50, has two sons with ex-wife Tracey Edmonds. He and his
35-year-old partner, Nikki Pantenburg, are now expecting a baby. The
baby is due at the end of 2008. Congrats, keep those babies coming, it's
crazy how many celebs will be welcoming babies this year.

I can't list them all there are so many but congrats to everyone, Ms. Nina
wishes the best for all!

Steven Tyler Went to Rehab To Recover From Foot Surgery?













Aerosmith front man Steven Tyler is claiming he went to rehab
to recover from foot surgery. Who the hell believes this, why
would you go to rehab to recover from foot surgery. These people
are ridiculous with this ish. Kristen Dunst went to rehab for
depression and Steven Tyler goes to recover from foot surgery??
Don't these people know that there are actually hospitals for
these very different needs and it just sounds ridiculous when
you say you went to rehab for anything other than you are
recovering from some sort of drug or alcohol addiction. Wow,
remember when Isaiah Washington went to rehab for dropping
the f bomb on set. Ha!

Is Oprah Still The Woman?









The Chicago Tribune is reporting that Oprah's television ratings have gone down since she started campaigning for Barack Obama. The truth of it all is that the ratings were already on the decline going from 9 million viewers in 2005 to 7.8 last year, to 7.3 this year. Her magazine sales have also seen a 10% drop. Don't count Ms. Winfrey out yet, she still has the number 1 rated talk show. But really does the decline have anything to do with her campaigning. Personally I'm just not feeling Oprah these days. Being an African American women I would like to feel included when I watch her show or look at her magazine but instead I feel like I am excluded from the issues she covers on her show, and have you looked through her magazine, there are scarce pictures of any African Americans. Now I am certainly not saying she should only cater to African Americans but she should at least include us. I like media that includes me so I will watch and read just about anything I feel included in. I love the View and Ellen is the ish so that has to say something right? Well I'm sure Ms. Winfrey could care less about what Ms. Nina has to say, so gone girl make that money how you make it.


Tyra Banks Is A Cover Girl??














Tyra Banks covers New York Times Magazine. The
magazine is basically comparing Tyra and her growing
media empire to Oprah Winfrey and Martha Stewart.
You already know what Ms. Nina says, 'do what you do
and get that money!' What do you think is Ms. Banks
the next media mogul?

George Clooney Is Single Again!














Surprise, surprise George Clooney and Sarah Larson have split.
Did anyone really think Mr. Clooney was settling down with
this girl. He has said it time and time again, he doesn't want to
get married and he has no interest in having kids. So ladies if
you think you are the one who is going to change this bachelor
til the end, think again Mr. Clooney is a woman eater. Ha Ha!

Ludacris & Tommy Lee Do Their Philanthropic Thang.














Ludacris and Tommy Lee hit the stage for a duet Wednesday at a
launch party for Planet Green, Discovery Communication's new
eco-friendly network. Ludacris is always giving back and he supports
many different humanitarian causes. Ms. Nina loves it when the
celebs. really get involved Luda is one of the few who actually gets
involved. Some celebs just attach their names to a foundation or charity
and they have no clue what it is about or what they are supporting.
To all the celebs out there, whenever you want to support a charity be
active and really participate, get in there and get those manicured hands
dirty baby.

Ashlee & Pete Wentz Confirm Pregnancy!













As if it were a big secret, as speculated Ashlee Simpson is indeed pregnant.
And unlike the denial of getting a nose job, Ashlee didn't want to confirm
the pregnancy until after the first trimester. It's understandable because
many women decide not to tell family and friends until they know the
pregnancy is going well. Congrats to them, they are a cute couple but I
don't which one is cuter. Any who, I wish them well, unlike Jessica
Ashlee seems like she knows who she is and what she wants and she goes
after it. Big sister should take some notes instead of wandering around
aimlessly looking for a man to define her. By the by her new country
single is circulating the net, it's entitled 'Come On Over' or some ish
like that.

Ruthie Has Raunchy Pics Too!?!













Remember little Ruthie, Mackenzie Rosman, from 7th Heaven, well she has some racy pictures that have been circulating on the net. Unlike Miley Cyrus, Mackenzie is of age she is 19 but this is still and always will be tasteless at any age. Why Ruthie, why?? She was so cute when she was little.

Is That Lil' Kim?













Lil' Kim was also at the Sex & The City premier looking almost unrecognizable. Please, please someone make her stop, it is getting ridiculous. I always thought she was pretty before she started getting all that plastic surgery. Pretty soon she is going to start looking like Michael Jackson. I don't understand why people do it, if you are not terribly disfigured there is no reason to be getting all that work done to yourself. People are going crazy with this ish, just say no to the plastic!

The New York Movie Premier of 'Sex & The City'













Sex & The City premiered in NY last night and the usual crowd gathered. Sarah Jessica Parker and Jennifer Hudson are pictured together. I don't know about you all but for some reason I just don't want to see this movie. I was happy the way the show ended and you could assume for yourself how the characters lives would turn out. I am also over Jennifer Hudson, I have been hearing some of her leaked music from her up coming album and I am not impressed. I think she peaked with that Oscar and there ain't no where else to go from there but back down. Not to be mean but I hope she gets some good tracks for this album, better than the ones I have heard. Her voice is amazing and it would be a shame to let it go to waste.

A New King Has Entered The World!














The first grandchild Dr. Martin Luther & Corretta Scott King’s was born I believe on Monday. Her name is Yolanda Renee King; her parents are Martin Luther King III and Andrea Waters King. Congratulations to the King family, babies are such a blessing!!

Sen. Barack Obama Plays Ball In Denver, Literally!









Barack Obama was in my hometown playing hoop on Tuesday evening, now ain't that something!

DENVER (CBS4/AP) ― Sen. Barack Obama found himself in a pick-up game of basketball Tuesday night with CBS4 sports anchor Vic Lombardi at the Denver Athletic Club. Obama arrived in the mile high city the night before a Wednesday morning campaign event in Thornton.

Mr. Moss Goes To Hollywood!











Shad Moss, aka Bow Wow, is now ready to focus his talents on acting. I’ve always liked his music because my kids were able to listen to it without me being offended. But now Mr. Moss is all grown up and he is ready for something a little different. “After 16 years in the music industry and six successful albums, I’ve decided to shift my energy to something else I’m passionate about, acting,” Moss said. “I’m going to try to be the next Will Smith.” Despite what some say I think he can do it, he is one of the few rappers who can really act. Like Bow Wow I never thought he got the respect he deserved in the rap industry, so I am glad he is focusing on acting. Love or hate the facade you can’t deny the guy is talented. By the by, he is someone who really appreciates his fans, I’ve met Bow a couple of times and he is as sweet as peach pie, very nice and polite.








More Photos Of Miley!











Miley Cyrus made headlines earlier this month by appearing to be topless
in a Vanity Fair spread. Now she is back in the news again for more racy
photos. The photos were supposedly sent by the 15-year-old to her then
boyfriend Nick Jonas. What is up with this girl, if Ms. Nina was her
mother I would pull her azz right out of the celeb. scene for a while.
I think she needs some time to reflect on this photo taking business
that she engages in. Vanity Fair was not the first instance of her
provocative posing. It's ridiculous at this point to let a 15 year old
who obviously needs some kind of boundaries or rules continue to do
what she is doing. Get a hold of that azz now before she ends up like
Britney or Lindsay. If Ms. Nina saw photos like this of her daughter
that she sent to some boy I would get in that azz, and she is 17. These
mothers have got to teach these babies to respect and love themselves.
If mama don't teach them who will?

Prayers Go Out To Xzibit.













Xzibit, Former rapper and host of MTV's 'Pimp My Ride'
turned actor, has suffered the loss of his son. Xavier Kingston
was born prematurely earlier this month and was not able
to breath on his own, he died yesterday. Xzibit talks about
the loss on his myspace page. Thoughts and prayers go out to
him and his family during this difficult time.

Usher Talks To EW.













Usher is on the cover of Entertainment Weekly to promote
his new album and he talks candidly about his relationship
with his wife and his mother. Check out the interview at

All The Beautiful People Are In Cannes

So it's the same old ish, nothing really worth talking
about today. All the beautiful people are in Cannes for
the film festival,Lindsay Lohan is there hugged up on
Samantha Ronson (yuck), Jay-Z and Beyonce just
arrived, hey if the paparazzi don't come to you, and
Diddy is hosting every party under the sun on his yacht.
I just thought I'd through in this picture of
Mary and Kendu did look fabulous at an
AIDS event in Cannes.
Happy Friday People!!!

Quick Updates

During the R. Kelly trail yesterday he was positively
identified twice as being the man in the video with
an under aged girl. The girl was also identified by
her best friend.

Senator Edward 'Ted' Kennedy was released from
hospital on Wednesday after being diagnosed with a
brain tumor. Prayers go out to him and his family.

Ice Cube Spotted Out & About














Ice Cube was spotted headed to the Lakers game
last night with his beautiful wife. I wonder what he
is up to these days. By the by, the Lakers bet the
Spurs 89 to 85.

Maxim's 2008 Hot 100 Party










Maxim held it's 2008 Hot 100 Party last night
and the usual suspects were there. The PussyCat
Dolls were also spotted on the seen together. I
guess they will be doing an album soon since
the solo thing obviously didn't work out for Ms.
Nicole. They have a new single supposedly coming
out called 'When I Grow Up'. It's alright do what
works and get that money Ladies!! Isn't one of them
missing in this photo, I thought there were six?

Did You Hear The One About The Beef Between 50 Cent & Rocsi!









Apparently 50 Cent is saying Rocsi is a VJ hoe after
reports came out that Rocsi said 50's latest Album 'Curtis'
was garbage. 50 is saying that Rocsi is just mad because
he didn't break her off a lil' bit. 50 called into 93.9 WKYS
on Tuesday to basically put Rosci's biz in the streets. Ms.
Nina says keep in professional Rosci, don't let them dudes
run all up in ya because word travels baby, word travels.

R. Kelly Has His Day In Court, Finally!











The trail for the child porn charges against R&B
singer/songwriter R. Kelly began yesterday. It's
about dang on time, I was beginning to think this
day would never come. R. Kelly should really be
ashamed, it's disgusting, what a waste of talent and
space. The Prosecution actually showed the sex
tape in question in open court yesterday. Who
the hell would have the stomach to sit through
that ish. I have no more words.

Danity Kane Out & About













Danity Kane were out at the 36th Annual FIFI Awards
& Celebration last night in NYC. Doesn't Aubry look
like Christina Augilera when she was going through
her DIRRRTY phase. Not a good look for anybody.
I don't know what it is but there is something a little
trashy about Aubry, Diddy needs to clean that up a
lil' bit.

Jessica & Cash Tie The Knot!













Congratulations to Jessica Alba and Cash Warren.
The couple tied the knot in a secret court ceremony
yesterday. Now that's how you get secretly married
for the sake of privacy.

Ashlee & Pete's Wedding Photos













Congrats to newlyweds Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz.
The couples wedding photos are in the new issue of people
magazine.

Michelle Williams Lookin' Fly!














Michelle Williams, from Destinys Child fame, was
out and about last night. I love her new hair cut,
she looks so good with this short hair style. Now
that she is a solo artist she can glam it up a little
more without upstaging you know who.

Derek Blanks’ Alter Ego!










Derek Blanks is at it again with his amazing photos. Here
is just one of many, this one is of Chrisette Michelle. I
love this guy he does some of the most creative photographs
I've seen in a while.

Daddy & Baby Usher.














Usher took a break from shooting MTV movie award
promos to spend some time with 5 month old Usher
Raymond V. Are we every going to see this baby, he's
5 months old already!

Fabulosity My Azz!!













I can't believe Kimora has let herself go, it is so sad. I
use to love her and all her over the top fabulousness,
but lately I just ain't feelin' her. I think because I have
caught a few episodes of her reality show and she just
does entirely toooo much. It's ridiculous how rude
and loud she is, and she treats her employees like
slaves. It ain't cute anymore Ms. Kimora Lee, it ain't
cute at all. You too damn old to behave the way you
do!

And The Winner Is!










As nothing else was on television last night I decided to catch
the last episode of cycle 10 of ANTM. I was surprised, as I
am sure many were, that Whitney Thompson won. She is the
first plus sized model to win the competition. She is indeed a
beautiful girl, but in the modeling world she will never be a
top model. I don't think any of the winners from that show
have ever become anything other than catalog models. Why
did Tyra title the show ANTM. She should have named it
I Want To Be A Model or some ish like that. I think it's
just another way to exploit people for the sake of having a
show and good ratings. But I think that is true for all reality
shows. Oh well, Congrats to Whitney Ms. Nina loves it!!

For Ashanti Less Is More, Wow!
























I usually don't post pictures from the men's
magazines on my blog. Not that there is anything
wrong with the pics, I just think women can
be sexy without doing it. But in this case Ashanti
looks soooo good posing for the June issue of Maxim,
I had to do it. Enjoy!

Beyonce, Is She or Isn't She?














The rumor mill is a churnin'. Beyonce is
supposedly preggers again. Only time will
tell. In the mean time, Ms. Carter stepped
out with her husband Tuesday Night after
Kanye's concert at Madison Square Garden.
I must say she does seem to have that glow!

Did You Hear The One About???














Diddy and Cassie all hugged up on Mother's Day.
I hope Kim gets the hint this time and finds her
a new Suga Diddy. Get some dignity girl this
ish has gone waaaay to far!












Amy Winehouse and Pete Doherty share a friendly
kiss at a party she threw last night. Yuuuuckk!!













I know everyone heard the one about Suge Knight.
That ish is hilarious!!

Kanye Gone Wild!























So Perez Hilton posted these photos of Kanye
and a bouquet of blondes. It's funny because
all of the blogs are posting these photos on their
sites, so this time I will not be the exception.
The man is single now and he's grown so he clearly
can and will do whatever he wants. He might want
to be a little more considerate of his ex's feelings.
All I can say is, get your groove back but keep it behind
closed doors baby!!

Jessica Simpson & Tony Romo Split?










Jessica Simpson is denying reports that her and
Dallas Cowboy QB Tony Romo have split. Sources
said the two had split after Tony spent the weekend
partying sans Ms. Simpson. Jessica Made the
following statements for the June issue of Glamour
Magazine:

"He reintroduced me to myself. I thought that I had
to be deeper, more profound and more artsy. You change
with the guys you date. [I thought] I had to be more
intellectual. Come on--just be yourself! Tony taught
me that because he loves me [as me]. He made me feel
comfortable [being myself] again."

"This article could come out and Tony and I could be
broken up, but he still deserves all the accolades for
bringing me back to who I am."

As always Ms. Nina has an opinion on this. I think Jessica
should take time to get to know herself and stop letting men
define who she is, especially that father of hers. He gets
involved in her personal life entirely toooo much. But I digress,
it's not good to try so hard to be in love with someone if you
are not in love with yourself. I've said it before, you have to love
yourself first.

Why Amy? Why?













The title says it all, but Amy Winehouse is not your
average 5 time Grammy winner. She's like a box
of chocolates, you never know what you're going
to get!

Another Star Gets Real!














Monica has a reality show in the works. Ms. Nina
thinks it's great that all these people are able to get
their own reality show. Get that money while the
getting is good! But is money everything, I wonder
how these reality shows effect their personal lives,
it has to be hard, you can't expect any kind of private
life once you do a reality show. Can you?

Remy Ma's Wedding Canceled!













Remy Ma, who was sentenced to eight years in prison,
and Papoose were suppose to get married yesterday
but the wedding was canceled by prison officials when
it was discovered that Papoose was trying to smuggle in
a handcuff key. These fools are crazy, who the hell gets
married in Jail and who tries to smuggle in a handcuff
key. I don't understand why are these rappers so dead
set on throwing there lives away for foolishness. Eight
years for shooting someone over $2,000.00. That's just
idiotic, get it together people life is already too short!

The Melo Man Gets A Dose Of Reality!













So, I've said in the past that I am a reality show junkie
because that's all that is on television these days. I was
happy to learn that Carmelo Anthony is going to have
his own show on BET. I am not sure when it is scheduled
to air, but it will follow him during the summer months of
training and other ventures. Being a Denver native I get to
see Carmelo out and about during the season and despite
some of his legal troubles he is a cool dude, and he is still
young so he has many more mistakes to make. Hopefully
he has learned from his most recent troubles that he needs
to make better decisions, because like it or not he is a role
model!

Nick Bollea Gets 8 Months











Nick Bollea, son of Terry 'Hulk Hogan' Bollea, was sentenced
Friday to 8 months in a Florida jail for his no contest plea
to felony reckless driving. I hope he has finally learned
his lesson, he is a habitual speeder and this time it cost
his good friend any quality of life he may have had.

Nina Monroe Just Might Have A New Favorite Author!

 I stumbled upon an author by the name of Tiffany D. Jackson, whom I am now totally addicted to. Ms. Jackson is an author of young adult nov...
