BET's 106 & Park: Keshai Chante Auditions For Aaliyah's VH1 Biopic

Reports over the past few weeks has surfaced that an Aaliyah Biopic will be aired on VH1.

It now looks as though BET's 106 & Park, Keshia Chante, is in the running for the part of the songbird. She has been auditioning for the part for as long as there has been talks of the biopic, but production came to halt in 2008 after the family was pleased about the biopic.

Keshia revealed:

What I will say is…I did meet a few people production company wise that are developing the Aaliyah movie and they spoke to me about playing her in the biopic of her life. And from my understanding there are people trying to create a movie and Aaliyah’s family are still mourning her loss and aren’t ready to share her story and create a film. So there’s a bit of back and forth thing with her family and with creative people.

…unfortunately from my understanding they don’t have complete control of her estate. So a movie could technically be made without them green lighting it and I kind of think that’s unfortunate. So I want her family to be on board and to be happy with it. It’s still kind of lingering in the air. I would love to play the part. I’m a huge fan of Aaliyah…I would want to do it justice and exceed people’s expectations of it.

With the auditions moving forward she is going to be auditioning again.Watch the cover for "One In A Million" by Keshia Chante.

T.I and Floyd Mayweather Fight's Over Tiny?

Did T.I and Floyd Mayweather got into a fight over Tiny?

Last night the internet was buzing with rumors that rapper T.I and Floyd Mayweather has gotten in a fight over Tiny.

Reports are T.I ran up on Mayweather at a Fatburger joint because he didn't like it very much that he was kicking it with his wife Tiny. A video surfaced showing Floyd telling T.I to control his B***H, which allegedly started the fight.

Floyd Mayweather however made it straight that he would never date a married woman and that there is nothing going on between the two of them. He also apologized for calling Tiny out of her. He also explained what happened and what led up to the incident.

Floyd on his relationship with Tiny
I been knowing Tiny before T.I. I’ve never slept with her, I never kissed her, never touched her in no inappropriate way. Her friend Shekinah wanted to come to the [May 4th] fight, she brought Tiny with her. They came to the fight.

After the fight was over Saturday night, Sunday they came over my mother’s house. My mother had a big, big party for me. They came over and showed love. They came over to my house all cool, all respect. Hang out with The Money Team, my crew. Everybody was cordial. No disrespecting type. After that, I guess she put a picture up on Instagram of her at the fight so I guess he [T.I.] was feeling some type of way.

Well we guessing it's just not time for us to find out what Pink's cryptic message really means.

Everyone has since been reading into her tweet, and taking their own meaning to it. Pink was sent tons of congratulations on her pregnancy. But no one really knows for sure.

The star took to social network saying :
 “I love that every time I find a box of Girl Scout cookies I’m pregnant. Guilty: I’m having a thin mint:)” 

It isn't any secret that motherhood has definitely changed her. "I didn't want kids", the 34 year-old related in an interview. "I was terrified. I had moments where i wanted to have a kid with Carey- you know. You first fall in love and you're like "we should have kids" and then it went away. But he always wanted kids, and then we did it, and now it's like F**k, this is so rad. It's more important than anything we've done."

The couple however doesn't see to be welcoming a newborn anytime soon. But who really know?

Toni Braxton Charges Her Children Rent and Utilities

Celebrities are now taking parenting to a new level, and for all good reasons. Toni Braxton appeared on "The Queen Latifah" show and reveals that she makes her children pay rent.

Braxton's boy's who are 11 years old and 12 years old are being taught from an early age that bills need to be paid and that the real world is hard. Diezel and Denim is learning the value of a dollar.

Considering the whirlwind of financial difficulties Toni has been through, its a no surprise that she wants her boys to learn money management to avoid them from learning the hard way.

They get ten and twelve dollars a week, and one pays me two dollars, the other pays me three dollars. Seventy-five cents for gas and electric and fifty cents for cable and things like that.

"Just so they can understand the value of a dollar and they can understand that when you get older and have to leave, you have to pay bills. It was a shock to me when I found out I had to pay bills, like, ‘What do you mean rent?!’ So I thought I should instill that into my little boys."

Back in 2012 Taraji Phenson, made her 18 year old son sit out of the first semester of college, so that he could get a job to understand what the real world is like.

"I don’t want to raise this privileged  kid, who’s out of touch, so I made him sit out the first semester and he has to get a job. He called his grandmother, he was like, ‘It’s hard out here, it’s hard to find a job. So I was like, ‘Yeah, I need you to know that.

I need him to see how real it is out here. It builds character. I told him, ‘College is like an investment. I’m investing my money in your future, and if I feel like you’re a bad investment, I’m taking my money back."

Morgan Freeman Voice Plus Helium Equals The Best Video You Can See

Topping off best video of the day is no other than Morgan Freeman.

We all love his baritone voice, and ther is only one thing that would be better than it, that is Morgan Freeman's voice after ingesting a balloon full of helium.

In a Science Channel Video Freeman talking in a baby voice of things we never knew we really needed,. Its for the docuseries "Through The Wormhole" which is usually narrated by Freeman in his normal voice, but we would rather tune in everyday to hear his baby voice!

Are You Ready For A Black Version Of Magic Mike? Oh Yes I Am..

Director Jean-Claude LaMarre is looking to shoot an urban version of the movie that launched Channing Tatum into sex symbol stratosphere, if he gets his way.

Now for those of you who watched the male stripper movie Magic Mike, and wondered if it wasn't possible to get some fine brothas in there, your wish might just be coming true.

According to deadline, Micheal Jai White and Tyson Beckford are already in talks to star in the project:

Now indie helmer Jean-Claude LaMarre (Gang Of Roses, Color of the Cross) is hoping to tap into the world of male strippers with his urban take, Chocolate City, which aims to merge the Magic Mike phenomenon with the recent strength of African-American-themed films at the office box. Black Dynamite star Michael Jai White and model-turned-actor Tyson Beckford are in negotiations to star in the tale of Devin, a college student struggling to make ends meet who meets the owner of a male strip club (White) who convinces him to give amateur night a whirl. Beckford will play Adrian, the club’s former star attraction who finds his popularity fading as the new kid starts to steal the spotlight.

[...]

Story also has a faith-themed subplot involving the protagonist’s struggle to balance his religious upbringing with his newfound career on the stripper stage.

Yes, yes, and yes!

Chocolate City is scheduled to start shooting in Los Angeles next month with a straight-to-DVD deal already on the table. But the filmmaker is hoping to shop the flick to studios that’ll get it the proper theatrical run it deserves!

With some drama in the beginning because the family did not approve of the film being made , it seems as though that the casting has been completed and the film is in the pre-production stage.

An actress named Tristin Mays, took it social netwotk to call the audition the most difficult, emotional and inspiring audition process she has ever been apart of:

Normally I wouldn’t do something like this. But a very close friend of mine, @loganlaurice, gave me the courage to speak up about something that’s been pending and sitting on my heart. Today, I can’t be upset that I didn’t book the role I worked so hard for. This may have been the most difficult, emotional, inspiring, and lengthy audition process I’ve ever experienced. Getting the chance to portray someone I’ve always loved and admired so much was a blessing every single step of the way. I invested every ounce of my body mind and soul into this process and I can honestly say I’m proud of myself. God definitely has something incredible in store for me. A huge thank you to everyone who believed in me and spoke up for me in the room. And a huge congratulations to everyone in the cast!#TheAaliyahStory. Like Logan said, you’re satisfied no matter the outcome of things that aren’t in your control. -Tristin Mays

VH1 did a caps off job with the TLC story, so if this is true then we are in for another great storyline!

Rihanna Dragged By Charlie Sheen Over Resturant Snub

No one can deny the awesome connection Rihanna has when it comes to her #teamnavy fans. Riri goes from hugs and autographs to private messages and remembering names and faces, her personal connection is undisputed.

"Old man" Charlie Sheen unfortunately, isn't on #teamnavy or maybe he just had bad timings. The actor is claiming that Rihanna snubbed both him and his fiancee Scottine during her birthday night out. And he has now taken it to twitter to drag his drama.

Charlie was at the Giorgio Baldi restaurant in Santa Monica, California celebrating his girlfriend's birthday when they heard that RiRi was in the building,with his fiancee being a Rihanna stan he sent over a request for the two of them to meet but was told that was not possible since there was too may paparazzi outside and they would have to reschedule for a meet-n-greet.

Sheen began to feel some kind of way and took it to twitter:

so,
I took my gal out to dinner
last night with her best
friends for her Bday.
we heard Rihanna was

present as well.
I sent a request over to her table to introduce my fiancé
Scotty to her, as she is a
huge fan.

(personally I couldn’t pick her out of a line-up at gunpoint)

well, the word we received back was that there were too
many paps outside and it just wasn’t possible at this time.

At this time? AT THIS TIME??
lemme guess, we’re to reschedule another random
11 million to 1 encounter
with her some other night…?

no biggie for me; it would have been 84 interminable seconds of chugging Draino and
“please kill me now”
that I’d never get back.

My Gal, however,
was NOT OK with it.
Nice impression you
left behind, Bday or not.
Sorry we’re not KOOL enough
to warrant a blessing from
the Princess.
(or in this case
the Village idiot)

you see THIS is the reason
that I ALWAYS take the time.
THIS is why I’m in this thing
31 awesome years.
Good will and
common courtesy, carefully
established over time to exist radically in concert
with a code of gratitude!

I guess “Talk That Talk”
was just a big ol lie from
a big ol liar.

oh and Riahnna,
Halloween isn’t for a while.
but good on you for testing out your costume in public.
it’s close; a more muted pink might be the answer,
as in:
none.

See ya on the way down,
(we always do

and actually,
it was a pleasure NOT
meeting you.
clearly we have NOTHING

in common  when it comes
to respect for those who’ve
gone before you.
I’m guessing you needed those precious 84 seconds
to situate that bad wig
before you left the restaurant.

Here’s a tip from a real vet
of this terrain;
If ya don’t wanna get bothered
DONT LEAVE YOUR HOUSE!
and if this “Prison of Fame”
is soooooooo unnerving and
difficult, then QUIT, junior!
c
#Hamateur

Rihanna addressed the dragging via twitter DM to a fan. 

RiRi saysshe didn't even know "old man" Charlie was at the restaurant and was simply trying to enjoy her dinner.

Catchy lyrics:

I’m not worried bout a thing
Cause I know You are guiding me
Where you lead me, Lord I will go
I have no fear cause I know who’s in control
There’s no limit to what You can do

Yes it belongs to You
You’re almighty and all powerful
And it all belongs to You
Yes it all belongs to You

Amen!
