Regina's Gossip Fix
Nicole Murphy and Michael Strahan Breaking Up?
Last week there were rumors of trouble in paradise for Nicole Murphy and Michael Strahan because Michael was upset about Nicole appearing in a sexually charged music video. Looks like Michael may have had reason to worry. Insiders say that Michael found inappropriate text messages on Nicole's phone from the guy in the video and all hell broke loose. Word on the street is that Nicole and Michael haven't spoken since Sunday but that Nic is hoping Mike will come around._________________________________________________________________________________________Bobbi Kristina in Serious Car Accident
Bobbi Kristina and companion Nick Gordon were involved in a serious car accident Sunday night in Alpharetta, GA. Bobbi Kris was in the passenger seat and she and Nick were allegedly arguing at the time of the crash. No other car was involved. Later that evening police were called to Bobbi Kris and Nick's apartment to investigate a noise complaint, but no one answered the door. Police found Nick's Camaro parked outside their apartment with the front end torn off, the airbags deployed, the front tire missing and the hazard lights blinking. The crash is under investigation.
_________________________________________________________________________________________The Kim Kardashian - Kanye West Sex Tape Cover-UpRemember how earlier it was reported that there are now TWO Kanye West sex tapes floating around, starring two different Kim Kardashian look-a-likes??? Well, that doesn't seem to be the case anymore. Insiders claim the so called Kim Kardashian 'look-a-like' featured in the infamous Kanye West's sex tape is actually the real Kim. In what is shaping up to be a big ole scandal, word on the street is that it was Kim Kardashian, not Mony Monn, who appears in the leaked Kanye West sextape. Kim Kardashian and Kanye West were blindsided by the leaked sextape and quickly tried to cover-up Kim's identity by claiming Mony Monn was the "leading lady."Outside of the obvious, why would they be so concerned about this particular sextape? The answer is simple: millions and millions of dollars. Kim Kardashian is still engulfed in nasty divorce proceedings with Kris Humphries, who is desperately looking for evidence to support his claim Kim was unfaithful during their marriage. If he could successfully support his claims, he could divorce Kim on grounds of infidelity instead of irreconcilable differences, a major breakthrough in the divorce proceedings which could make him an extremely wealthy man. Fortunately for him, the sextape may be just what he needs to support his claims since it was reportedly filmed during the early stages of his marriage to Kim Kardashian. S-C-A-N-D-O-L-O-U-S. And in that order.Mony MonnBecause the sextape could equate to irreparable damage financially and character-wise, Kanye and Kim reportedly convinced aspiring-model Mony Monn to claim she was the one who appeared in the video (she was reportedly paid upwards of six-figures to make this claim). Sources also suggest Mony Monn was given previously unreleased photos of Kim Kardashian to mix in with her own photos on Facebook, in an effort to confuse anyone who may be looking for ways to differentiate between the two. While this all seems slightly bizarre and far-fetched, this would explain why it's almost impossible to differentiate between Mony Monn and Kim Kardashian in online photos, while those similarities are not quite as evident in person._________________________________________________________________________________________Rocsi Diaz Up for X-Factor Job
Not long after BET announced '106 and Park' hosts Terrence J and Rocsi Diaz were being replaced, Terrence secured a new job with E News and now Rocsi has something in the works, too...
From Confidential
Khloe Kardashian is no lock to be the new "X Factor" host, according to another "X" hopeful herself, Rocsi Diaz. A source at Monday's "Bringing Up Bobby" after-party at Haven Rooftop says Diaz, who hosts BET's "106 & Park," told author James Hester that competition for the final spot is down to herself and Kardashian. The insider also overheard Diaz telling Hester that Thursday will be her last day at BET because she's moving to LA — where "X Factor" is filmed — to pursue her acting career._________________________________________________________________________________________Stevie Wonder Blackmailers Sentenced
Back in May a man claiming to be Stevie Wonder's nephew was arrested for trying to extort the singer out of millions of dollars by threatening to go public with incest claims. Besides lying about the incest claims, the guy isn't even related to Stevie Wonder. Alpha Walker was sentenced to 292 days time served after pleading no-contest to extortion charges. His cohort, Tamara Diaz, also pleaded non-contest and was also sentenced to time served. Alpha and Tamara both received 3 years probation and have been ordered to stay away from Stevie Wonder, his family and his co-workers.
_________________________________________________________________________________________Ciara Says She Never Stalked 50 Cent
Back in January Chelsea Handler went on The Howard Stern Show and told Howard that Ciara stalking 50 Cent is what ended Chelsea's fling with 50. Ciara says it never happened...
Ciara tells Power 106
"Well, you know what? I did, I actually did hear something she said. I'm not going to act like I didn't hear anything but I have to honestly say that whatever she said that I supposedly said or whatever she was told, I never said. So either she was misinformed or she was creating her own fun thing. She always seems like she's very fun and wild and very personable so I'm assuming she created her own story and breakdown of it all."_________________________________________________________________________________________DNA Test Ordered for Sherman Hemsley's Brother
Last month it was revealed that the late actor Sherman Hemsley had not been buried because a long lost brother was contesting his will. Welp, a judge in Texas just ordered a DNA test to make sure this guy isn't a fake. Sherman Hemsley died on July 24 and left his entire estate to his longtime manager Flora Enchinton. That's when Richard Thornton showed up claiming to be Sherman's brother and demanding his slice of the inheritance. Results for the DNA test are expected by October 15 and the next hearing is set for October 31. Sherman Hemsley's estate is worth roughly $50,000.00_________________________________________________________________________________________BET Promo Stunt Causes Bomb Scare, Evacuations in LA
BET's attempt to promote its upcoming late night talk show went horribly wrong this week, resulting in the temporary shutdown of two radio stations in Los Angeles and the complete evacuation of the building they share. The arrival of BET's promotional package for "Don't Sleep with TJ Holmes" at LA's CBS-owned stations KNX and KFWB included a beeping sound from inside the sealed envelope, causing staffers to assume that a bomb was inside. As a result, the stations temporarily suspended live local broadcasting and evacuated their 27-story Miracle Mile office tower (containing other media outlets) as well as a stretch of Wilshire Blvd. Staffers also called the police, and LAPD's bomb squad was dispatched to the area. The package wound up containing plastic alarm clocks promoting the TJ Holmes program. KNX took the below pic of the clocks._________________________________________________________________________________________Tashera Simmons Joins Bitter Exes Reality Show

_________________________________________________________________________________________Lil Wayne's Crazy DepositionWe came across some very interesting footage of Lil Wayne being deposed in a legal case. Weezy, who's suing Quincy Jones III – who's better known as QD III – over a documentary about him, says he can't remember anything, but what he does remember is … well, you gotta see it...But first, here's the back story:QD III had his production team follow Lil Wayne around for months to chronicle his life as he was putting together his album, "Tha Carter III." It appears Lil was on board, but things fell apart because the rapper hated the movie, calling it a "scandalous portrayal." Lil Wayne is grilled by Qunicy's lawyer, Pete Ross from the powerhouse law firm of Browne George Ross, who hammers Wayne about his criminal record, but the rapper claims he remembers nothing. And then there are the alleged threats Wayne makes against Pete Ross. Wayne says he wasn't threatening the lawyer. You be the judge.Here's QDIII's movie trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sDo92CxqxlU&feature=player_embeddedHere's Lil Waynes' deposition: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=duxaXw0zKDAQuiet as it's kept Weezy's deposition may be better than the documentary itself._________________________________________________________________________________________Tameka Speaks on Being Labeled a Gold Digger
In the second segment of Tameka Raymond's Entertainment Tonight interview Tameka speaks of still being in shock over the death of her son Kile and why she doesn't deserve to be labeled a gold digger...
Regarding the death of her son..."I think I'm still in shock. I think this will probably be the greatest pain I will ever experience, losing him. But, it gave me strength beyond measure and it made me determined to fight for my other boys."and about being called a gold digger...
"You know, I think this is the typical stereotype. If a woman who has lesser means -- even if she is successful and hard-working, does her thing in her own right -- marries someone, what they call 'marrying up,' who has more money, they're automatically a gold digger. … The woman is always the gold digger. … It's kind of an insult to the men because it implies they're not loveable."_________________________________________________________________________________________
Basketball Wives' Gloria Govan and Matt Barnes tied the knot in Las Vegas. Matt and Gloria famously called off their nuptials at the last minute back in 2010, but this weekend they finally made it down the aisle. From The Las Vegas Journal ...Spotted: Matt Barnes of the Los Angeles Clippers, marrying Gloria Mendoza-Govan on Sunday at the Little Church of the West, with teammate DeAndre Jordan serving as best man.Just last week, Gloria said in an interview...
"Marriage isn't necessarily a huge priority for me. Matt and I are working on our relationship in terms of being parents first and foremost, being friends secondly and like I said, we had so much growth, we have to get to know each other. I know it's in the future, it's just not tomorrow. I think when it happens, everyone will be surprised because I don't think we will make a big deal out of it."In the meantime, Matt Barnes is also in the middle of some trouble. The pro-baller – now with the LA Clippers – was arrested over the summer for driving with a suspended license. Cops handcuffed him after he enjoyed a nice romantic dinner with Gloria at a local restaurant. But more issues came up when Barnes was reaching in his pocket to give his keys to Gloria. The arresting officer grabbed his hand and Barnes pulled away. That then became a felony offense for resisting arrest. Fortunately for him, the D.A. didn't see it that way, and excused the claim and got him for interfering with the duties of a police officer, which is a misdemeanor._________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Rihanna Was Throwing Up in the Club

But the industry is still entertainment with a huge fellowship and a lot of money. But who is the richest man in gospel? Well, that would be Kirk Franklin, who's net worth is at a whopping $8.5 million. The multi-talented songwriter and director first stepped on the scene in the early 90s, backed by his huge family of a choir. He was different, though. His music was just far enough away from traditional to catch the attention of secularists. But it hinted the right amount of praise and sermon to remind listeners of the gospel message. His debut album sold over a million copies and has won multiple awards, including a few Grammys, since._________________________________________________________________________________________Jaden Smith – "The Coolest"

Despite his death being ruled a suicide by the medical examiner, the circumstances of Hip-Hop mogul Chris Lighty's untimely passing left many skeptical about its cause. Now 50 Cent, at the behest of the late "Baby Chris's" mother, has hired a "high-powered" investigative team to look into his former manager's death. A copy of Lighty's will shows that all his worldly possessions have been left to his wife, Veronica Lighty. Although Chris Lighty was in the process of moving out of the Riverdale home he shared with his wife and was reportedly in an argument with her moments before he allegedly shot himself in the head, his entire estate has been left to Veronica. "I give my entire residuary estate, real and personal, to her," reads the will. The last will and testament was created in 2007 and also leaves a $1.6 million trust fund to his children.Although they were reportedly in the midst of a divorce, Monica Lighty has stated that she called off the divorce proceeding as a Father's Day gift. Lighty's family hired Dr. Michael Baden to conduct another autopsy before the Violator Management founder was laid to rest, but so far results beyond his being killed by a gunshot wound to the head have been inconclusive. Baden is awaiting further test result. With all these conflicting opinions (the couple's relationship has been describe as volatile by many different source), things may start to get uglier._________________________________________________________________________________________Lyor Cohen To Step Down as CEO of The Warner Music Group
