Robin Thicke Seen Partying With a.. "Fan"

"Blurred Lines" singer Robin Thicke was seen partying in the well-known Paris Club 79 last Saturday evening. Thicke joined a slew of fans on the dance floor following his live performance at the fashionable Paris club. That's where he was spotted and photographed getting very comfortable with a lady that was not-his-wife on the dance floor. Reports are saying that Thicke apparently had a great time, smoking and drinking for the duration of the night. Sources claim, the unidentified woman was attached to his side the whole night. The two got a little too close in one of the pictures, which was snapped where it appeared the two were sharing a kiss on the cheek. The woman was also spotted suggestively whispering in Thicke's ear. Hmmm.. sounds like the lines might be a little blurry after all.


Robin Thick is well known for his smash hit song "Blurred Lines"

Is Justin Bieber Abusing Drugs?

I don't know what  has happened to the sweet and cute "Baby" pop star, but based on reports from various news outlets, he is heading down a very dangerous and self-destructive path. His behavior, based on alleged news reports over the past year has made me question whether fame has gone to his head. Perhaps he might be finally be lashing out under all of the pressure involved of handling with superstardom and loads of money at such a young age. Early this morning TMZ.COM reported that Justin Bieber's California residence was allegedly found having drugs as and drug supplies strewn throughout the premises when authorities raided the property last Tuesday. The police had obtained a warrant to search the teen pop stars property based on allegations from a neighbor that the Biebs had caused thousands of dollars worth of damage to the neighbors home by trespassing onto his property and throwing eggs. With regards to the reason why the police didn't obtain some of these materials, law enforcement sources allegedly disclosed to TMZ that they were not on the search for drugs. They were solely seeking out video footage which may have been connected to video surveillance cams. Any moves to confiscate the drug paraphernalia went beyond the terms of the search warrant. They are also reporting that many of Biebers close friends and family are allegedly urging him to check into rehab. Whether or not the "Never Say Never" singer has plans to do so remains to be seen.

If in fact, Justin does have a problem with drugs or alcohol, I honestly hope he checks into rehab. We have already lost so many young artists and celebrities at such a young age because of drug abuse. Both prescription and illegal drugs have played roles in the death of so many young singers and actors. If this is the case, it would explain some of his bizarre behavior over the past year.

Madonna Drops the N-Bomb on Instagram

Yesterday, Madonna dropped the N-bomb on the social picture sharing network Instagram, in a remark published next to a picture of her son Rocco. "No one messes with Dirty Soap! Mama said knock you out! #disni**a", the pop queen posted. A lot of her followers were quite offended and infuriated by the racial slur hashtag. Later on that afternoon, Madonna replaced the caption and re-posted it to say, "Ok let me start this again. #get off of my d*ck haters!". Um yeah. So now she's calling people who were irritated by her racial slur "haters"? The word haters is so effortlessly thrown around these days. I suppose if you don't wish to hear someone make a racial comment, you're now considered a "hater"...??

I believe the hashtag was unmindful and inconsiderate. I think Madonna has always pushed the envelope and  done controversial antics to stay relevant.  In this case however, I don't believe she is racist. She not only has two black children, but she has dated plenty of  black men going back to the '80s forward as well as guys of diverse ethnic backgrounds. Which is all the more reason to NOT USE slurs like that. IMHO. It's NOT OK.

In Defense of Kanye West

There are many things that Kanye West  has done in the past that I haven't been a fan of. But as far as I'm concerned in this matter, the teen claiming to be a victim had it coming. Kanye has been accused of assault for allegedly punching a teenager in the face. It appears on the surface that the rapper had lost his temper in the suspected Jan. 13 attack on the adolescent.  However, reports are claiming that the rapper was angry after hearing a racially-charged rant directed at his fiance Kim Kardashian, while she was on her way to a consultation with her chiropractor.

Reports are saying that Kim was being swarmed by the paparazzi while she tried to walk into a Beverly Hills healthcare center for a scheduled visit. The 18-year-old alleged victim claimed he was purely making an effort to help out her by yelling at the paps while using the N word.  Kim, who’s obviously in a committed relationship with a black man, politely requested the teenager to refrain from using the N-word out of respect for her fiance and child. Nevertheless, that simply made matters worse. The teen allegedly started yelling at Kim, saying, “F**k you b***h. Just trying to help you. Shut up n****r lover, stupid sl*t.” At this point, Kim received a phone call from Kanye, where upon learning of her distress, came to intervene in the confrontation, thus lead to the physical altercation. 

If this is what happened, I don't blame Kanye. The man was harassing, stalking and antagonizing his wife. Perhaps the police should have been called rather than a physical confrontation. But at the same time, the fact that this guy was yelling racial slurs at her was unacceptable.
