JACKSON FAMILY VISITING BROTHER MICHAEL
*Janet Jackson and her brothers Randy, Jermaine and Tito paid their respects to Michael at Forest Lawn Cemetery today, while their mother Katherine joined Randy’s daughter Genevieve at a memorial event in their hometown of Gary, Indiana.
BEYONCE AINT TALKING TO HER DAD
*If you believe the NY Post, there’s a big rift developing between Beyoncé and her father and manager, Mathew Knowles.
The Grammy winning singer reportedly is still refusing to speak to him since he became a baby daddy with a woman 20 years his junior. Now execs at her label, Columbia, are fearful the problems between the two could damage her career:
RAPPER BUN B GOES TO COLLEGE
Rap is educational, and don’t let nobody tell you otherwise. The industry is not producing violence, hate, and sex… only, but there is a breed of consciousness out there, you just gotta sift through all the mumbo jumbo! Okay, well, perhaps that’s not the majority, but there is hope out there folks.
Rapper Bun B has decided to take his talent to the schools. He has decided to teach a Hip-Hop and religion course at Rice University in Houston, Texas this coming spring semester.
PRINCE RECIEVED BET LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT AWARD
Prince shows off his BET Award (presented to him by Chaka Khan)
*Sunday at the BET Awards in Los Angeles veteran funk-rocker Prince got his props and was given a lifetime achievement award.
Prince watched in the audience as Stevie Wonder paid tribute in a video, and onstage Janelle Monae gave an energetic rendition of his “Let’s Go Crazy” while disco diva Patti Labelle pumped out a rousing “Purple Rain.”
CHRIS BROWN IS BACK
Chris Brown Performed Michael Jackson tribute on BET Awards ... before breaking down
*It was a night of comebacks at the BET Awards, and none more unexpected than Chris Brown performing an emotional tribute to Michael Jackson.
The embattled pop star has mostly kept a low profile since pleading guilty to felony assault for beating up Rihanna in February 2009. But here he was, center stage, mimicking Jackson’s signature dance moves with almost eerie accuracy. Introduced by Jermaine Jackson, Brown embodied the King of Pop, wearing his fedora and spangled glove and moonwalking across the stage to “Billie Jean.”

Conservative commentator Glenn Beck is planning to hold a rally on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial on Aug. 28 — where exactly 47 years earlier, Dr. Martin Luther King delivered his “I Have a Dream Speech” during the March on Washington. …Coincidence?
Beck’s rally, titled “The Plan,” is apparently designed to drum up support for his 100 year plan “to restore our nation to the maximum freedoms we were supposed to have been protecting, using only the battlefield of ideas,” he told a group of Florida supporters last November.

Report: Tiger's Wife About to Sign Those Papers
by Dr. Boyce Watkins, AOL Black Voices
Radaronline is reporting that Tiger Woods' divorce is about to be signed and finalized. The most shocking part of the report is that there are claims that Woods' wife is set to get $750 million out of the settlement. There is no clear indication of who might get the kids out of the divorce or whether there is a confidentiality agreement, but the possibility that Elin Nordegren may walk away with $750 million is incredibly shocking.
"When they first started negotiating the divorce, it was very acrimonious," the source told RadarOnline.com. "Elin had a lawyer in California who was very, very aggressive."
Here are some quick thoughts about the Tiger Woods divorce:
1) Do prenuptial agreements not work anymore? Didn't Tiger's wife sign a prenup, and would it have been a crime for Elin to walk away with a clean $40 million for five years of "hard work?"

TERRELL SUGGS TELLING IT ALL
It is very easy to look into anyone’s life and find a flaw or a blemish, and it’s no different for Baltimore Ravens Defensive End Terrell Suggs. The NCAA single-season sacks record holder out of Arizona State University has had his fair share of media gaffes in his 7-year career.

Rapper Rick Ross Sued by Drug Dealer
by Dr. Boyce Watkins
I never bought into the hype that Rick Ross was a fraud. Everyone seemed to feel that because he was found to have been a corrections officer in a previous life, that he somehow violated the oath which says that rappers have to be criminals in order to sell records. I don't know how true or false the rumors happen to be, but the fact is that I never cared.
However, when I found out that there is reason to believe that the rapper Rick Ross took his name from the notorious drug dealer "Freeway" Ricky Ross, I thought to myself, "This is just stupid. Why can't the brother just be himself?"
JADA PINKETT SMITH POSE NUDE FOR ESSENCE
The actress also plugged “HawthoRNe” and discussed other topics on Detroit’s WJLB.
During her phone conversation with COCO, Foolish and Mr. Chase, she was asked about her close friendship with the late Tupac Shakur. Jada described their relationship as a “platonic romance.”
“We knew us being together in a romantic way would destroy everything because we were both fire,” she said. “We would burn everything up! So we knew in order to preserve our relationship there was no way we could ever add romance to it cause we probably would’ve killed each other!”
DEBBIE ROWE HANGING OUT WITH THE KIDS
As the June 25th anniversary of Michael Jackson’s death approaches, Fox 411 is reporting that his three children have been spending time with Debbie Rowe, the biological mother of his two eldest kids Prince Michael, 13, and 12-year-old Paris.
The mother of the pair’s 8-year-old brother Prince Michael II (Blanket) is unknown.
DRAKE AND RIHANNA WORKING ON A BIG PROJECT
*The former couple might be working4 together, despite the sour grapes the two have shared. Drake and Rihanna are going to be working together in the future despite the rapper’s harsh song supposedly dedicated to her.
“Right now I’m listening to Drake, Jay-Z, Kings of Leon, Ke$ha,” she told E! News while in Israel. The interviewer asked about a possible collaboration with Drake. She said, “I hope so ‘cause he’s really, really talented, and I think he’s one of the illest lyricists out there right now, so I would love to work with him.”
