I'm writing this post after driving eight hours from my hometown in Illinois to the middle of eastern Tennessee where I've come to see my sister who has been recently diagnosed with mono. Therefore, as it is approximately 2:30 in the morning here, let me preface the following posting is not quite as "witty" or "clever" as most of my other postings are, there is a reason for this and it is that I'm pretty sure at least half of my brain cells are not operational at this point in the night. Therefore, please don't judge. But now without any further adue...
Although last week the news was released that Beyonce Knowles and her husband, rapper, Jay-Z aren't expected to bring an adorable future pop sensation into the world, we do have something to make up for the tremendous loss (or at least that is the loss that was never there to begin with.) Mariah Carey is pregnant! Mimi and her husband, Nick Cannon, released to the press this week that the soaring soprano riff singer are expecting a child sometime coming this spring and that they are being very cautious with it as they lost a child due to miscarriage previously about two years ago all while showing ample emotion throughout the interviews. The father- to-be, Cannon, said when interviewed that, "the greatest gift on Earth is a child."
In other celebrity relationship news, it appears that Billy Ray Cyrus and wife Tisch are ending their marriage of seventeen years as the two filed for divorce in Tennessee this week citing the cause to be irreconcilable differences. Furthermore, it was discovered that it was indeed Billy Ray who filed for the divorce papers while he is also asking for shared custody of the couple's three children, including pop star Miley Cyrus. Now, maybe it's just me, but did anyone else see this coming? I think after so long of whoring out your own daughter it has to be bound to put some strain on the relationship... or at least I really hope it would.
In today's reason that the world is coming to an end, we can see the notorious Antoine Dodson. The viral video sensation (Am I the only one here who can quote the famous interview word-for-word?) now is using his newfound fifteen minutes of fame to become a lucrative career. BeenVerified.com has released a "sex offender-tracker," which Dodson has been hired to become the new spokesperson of. In the new commercial for the device Dodson is shown in his signature black wife beater and red bandana while holding a baby (Is anyone else wondering if the tracker's catchphrase will be "You don't have to come and confess, we're lookin' for you, we're gonna find you. So you can run and tell that... homeboy!"???) all the while making at least one blog reader admittedly more likely to buy the tracker (you know, to make my Halloween costume more authentic of course!) Anyway, I decided for those of you have literally have been living under a rock the last few weeks to throw you a bone and post the video that made the man famous... enjoy!
