On BLAST!! Spectacular 'Shakes it' in his panties!


OK OK OK!!! I have received so many calls, emails, twitter messages, facebook messages, and aim's about this damn issue! I personally don't care what his motivation is/was, or his sexuality, hell, I didn't even know who Pretty Ricky was. So on that note, the video probably wanted to gain attention and it did.

Spectacular, a member of the group Pretty Ricky was recently found dancing around and singing to a new song by the group. While I must admit that the song is hot, the little panties were NOT. I've gone to his twitter and found him defending his choice of attire and twirling, as well as his sexuality. Many people are calling him gay, people close to him are telling me he's not - WHO KNOW's. What is evident is that these panties were not meant to be worn on a man PERIOD.

Now for those who says he's gay does Prince not do some of those moves? And child molester R Kelly, what about him? And all these other male groups begging for attention, don't they do it? I will admit, the licking of lips, and enticing "call out" of the other male groups is a bit suspect, I don't know how he's "acting gay." And isn't saying "acting gay" somewhat gay bashing? That's like saying someone is acting black!! OMG, these thoughts, these questions, they just drive me nuts. Well, Spectacular told my girl he would do an interview for my blog so we'll see.

Check the video out and judge for yourself!

D. Woods has arrived! On set of her video, "Legalize Me"

Photobucket

Many of you know D. Woods as one of the 5 members of the super female pop group, Danity Kane. D. Woods left the group after much success and multi-platinum fame to pursue her solo career. I recently met D. Woods on the set of her upcoming video, "Legalize Me" which is definitely going to be a smash hit!

Her girl Quinn hit me up and asked me if I wanted to roll with her to the set of the video and at first I didn't know what to expect. You know, most females who are hot in the game (ahem Keri Hilson) get a bit ahead of themselves and allow ego to supercede their talent. So reluctantly I went ahead and visited the set. I have to say I'm so glad that I did! While there was a lot going on, I must admit it was good time.

What struck me immediately was how extremely humble D. Woods was to EVERYONE on the set. She walked through and was clearly having as much fun shooting the video as all the other participants. The only other noticable part of her video cast was Ray Cunningham from BET College Hill, and Tech from MTV's Real World who was apparently a part of the production crew.

D. Woods and I chatted briefly, and thanks to our mutual friend Coko Clemons from the female power group SWV, we broke the ice immediately. Noticeably, D. Woods had major swag zipping through the crowd speaking to everyone from extras to hair and makeup, and to ME. It was very refreshing to see an artist with talent be such a humble and sweet person. Although we didn't have time to do our interview, I will get her on here before she leaves this week!

What's HOT: Ace of Spades Champagne

Photobucket

Armand de Brignac (also known as "Ace of Spades" or "Gold Bottles"), the high-end champagne featured in Jay-Z's new video for "Show Me What You Got," is making its debut in the U.S. this year. Armand, manufactured in France, is being imported into North America for distribution by the Manhattan-based company of the same name.



"We're delighted to have someone of Jay-Z's stature include Armand de Brignac in the first video for his new album," said Brett Berish in a press statement. "Jay-Z has always demonstrated the highest standards and finest taste, and we're honored to see Armand make an appearance in "Show Me What You Got." Armand's unmatched taste and package are a perfect fit for the video."

The video reaffirms Jay-Z's decision to boycott Louis Rodere Cristal brand of champagne back in June, following some disparaging comments by Cristal boss Frédéric Rouzaud. In the video for "Show Me What You Got," Jay-Z is offered a bottle of Cristal, a brand he had endorsed on previous songs and videos. Jay motions for the bottle to be sent back, and a waiter returns with a silver briefcase. It's opened to reveal the Armand de Brignac gold bottle. GANGSTA
