Goodbye Whitney!

Posted in Whitney Houston on February 13th, 2012 by dirtygurl

Another contract was collected yesterday.  Whitney Houston was found dead in her hotel room yesterday @ 3:55  pst.  Whitney was staying at the Beverly Hills Hilton where she was scheduled to perform during Clive Davis’ annual Pre-Grammy party.  Although no official cause of death has been reported due to a security restriction, the blogs have speculated that Whitney had taken the anti-anxiety drug Xanax and accidentally drowned in a tub of water.  It is unclear who found Houston; some reports say it was her hairdresser and others claim it was her bodyguard. So let the lying and covering up begin.

I gotta admit, I was taken aback when I heard the news, however I was not surprised.  I felt pretty much the same way when I heard that Michael was gone.  She’d always been “there” and now she wasn’t.  Silenced.  Whitney had such a powerful voice and I liked her music since her debut.

Once again the “celebrities” have shown how low and disgusting they are.  While Whit’s body languished in her hotel room, these self-centered egotistical bastards walked the red carpet for that much-needed photo-op.  First of all, I’m sure that everyone was well aware that Whitney had passed, so out of respect for the woman, the party should have been cancelled!  Period.  How dare that  demon Clive Davis tell us ” Whitney would have wanted the party to go on”.  Okay so did she appear to you in ghostly form to tell you this Clive?  Let’s keep it real…you have never given a red fuck about Whitney or anyone else, all you see is $$$$$$$$$$$$!  She was a commodity to you, nothing more, and even in death she will be worth more $$$ to you than she was in life.

I hate to appear to jump at shadows but it has been proven time and time again that nobody living this Hollyweird lifestyle dies of natural causes.  The old standby is usually death by overdose, cardiac arrest, or suicide and this is no different.  They are also quick to add

There is an evil formula at work here.  First the drug abuse.  When you enter into the industry, it is a given that you will be offered some kind of drug, usually cocaine.  They introduce you to it, supply your habit, then slap you in the face with it when you are thoroughly addicted.  These entourages are put in place to keep you addicted by enabling your habits and to spy on you to the label execs.  Your habit is then leaked to the press and the smear campaign begins.  Once you are labeled a drug addict, then the “broke” rumours start.  After that your mental and physical  health is called into question.  If you think about it,  Whitney’s decline is much like that of Michael Jackson and many others who have gone before them.  Ten or fifteen years from now it will be Beyonce, Rihanna, and Nicki Minaj.  You see, the only thing that changes are the faces, but the game remains the same.

When you think of Whitney you think of the man who takes credit for her success.  Clive Davis was responsible for molding and guiding Houston’s early career, but she wasn’t his first protegé to crash and burn.  If you know good soul music, you know the name Phyllis Hyman.  Just like Whitney, Hyman had an extraordinary voice.  Phyllis was signed to Buddha who came under Arista’s ownership while Davis was president of the label.  During the four years that Hyman was under Davis’ mentorship, the came to loathe each other.  According to some, Phyllis was a very proud and opinionated woman who irked Davis, who is rumored to be a closeted homosexual pedophile.  He wanted to control Hyman’s music, and she rebelled.

When it became clear that Davis couldn’t control Hyman, he dropped her in favor of Houston who was more than willing to be molded.  She was very young and naïve when she  was signed and was probably willing to do what Hyman clearly wasn’t.   Hyman eventually ended up taking her own life, but I don’t think she was mentally ill, I think that was a smear campaign started by Clive the Queen.  Hyman was also addicted to drugs.

Kelly Clarkson also had issues with Clive and she made it public knowledge.  Apparently, he wanted her to stick with her pop formula, and she wanted to go in a different direction.  I’m sure that he blackballed her, forcing her to play nice and he probably made her throw in a blow job on top of it.

I think that Whitney at some point some years back must have grown tired of being under Davis’ control, when she snubbed him by not attending some event.  I’m not sure of the specifics, maybe one of you guys can help me out on this one.  I believe it was right before her infamous interview with Illuminati pawn Diane Sawyer but once again I’m not sure.  If my theory is correct was that interview her “punishment” for that snub?

 

Last I heard, it’s going to take six to eight weeks before Whitney’s toxicology reports come back from the lab, so of course there will be an update once that happens.  In closing I want to say that Whitney is finally free!

I can’t help but think that maybe Davis had something to do with Whitney’s body not being taken from the hotel before the festivities began.  Seems like he let the party go forward having the last laugh, and dancing on her grave.     Although he may seem remorseful over her death, I’m sure that he knows that he will make more money off her now than he ever has in the past.  As for Bobbi Kristina being rushed to the hospital…nothing a few electro-shocks and cattle-prodding won’t cure.  She was released after a few hours and is good as new.

It’s three days later and I still feel like I’ve been gut punched.  Bobbi Kris rushed to the hospital twice for “stress” and “anxiety”?  Did you guys catch Chaka Khan on Piers Morgan last night?  I’m so happy that someone stood up for Whitney by questioning the decision to go ahead with the party while Whits body was upstairs.  She also said that the music industry was demonic and that Whit’s mother feared for her daughters life, and now they fear for Bobbi Kristina.  Have you all noticed that each and every special on Whitney repeats the details  about her drug abuse over and over again?  It’s as if that’s the thing they want us to remember most about her.  They imply that Bobby Brown was responsible for her drug addictions when in fact, she was on drugs before she met him.  My respect level for Chaka just went up 200%.  A majority of the celebs are too afraid to go against Clive Davis for fear of being blackballed, but Chaka had the balls to speak out and tell the truth!  Class act!  It just goes to show that although these celebs claim that Whitney was such an inspiration blah blah blah, but you weren’t inspired enough to stay out of the camera as tribute.

KEEP YOUR BEATS TO YOURSELF

Posted in Dr. Dre on January 13th, 2012 by dirtygurl

The life of a fake gangsta is never easy…just ask Rick Ross. Bitches and hoes need to be pimped out and drugs have to be sold.   Such was the life of Dr. Dre f.k.a. Andre R. Young.  Dre was 1/5 of the violent rap group NWA.

 

But alot of you new-booties don’t know that the uber-producer was also in the group The World Class Wrecking Crew. It was during this time that he worked with future NWA bandmates DJ Yella, and Ice Cube.  Easy E was in the picture, but he was a local drug dealer who frequented the club the group played in.  The Crew had one radio hit called “Turn Off the Lights” featuring Dre’s “girlfriend and mother of  one of his children.

 

Sidenote: I had no idea that Michel’le was the ex-wife who sued Suga for child support back in ’09.  So you have kids by the two men who co-owned Death Row Records! RME!

 

So after the Crew fell off, Yella, Cube, Eazy E, and MC Ren came together to form NWA, and the manufactured Gangsta Rap was born.  NWA stayed together until 1989 until Ice Cube left alleging that he and the other group members were being cheated out of royalties by Eazy, and the groups grimy  manager Jerry Heller.  Cube went to New York and came with the classic album Amerikkka’s Most Wanted, which was a huge commercial success.

 

Without their writer, NWA disbanded in 1991 after the release of the lackluster Efil4zaggin which is niggaz4life spelled backwards.  Perhaps Ice Cube said it best on Death Certificate…

“you can’t be the Niggaz 4 Life Crew/with a white Jew/telling you what to do”, “you let a Jew break up my crew”, “get rid of that Devil real simple/put a bullet in his temple.”

Shortly after parting ways with Eazy and company, Dre partnered up with Suge Knight to form Death Row Records, which Suga ran with fear and intimidation tactics that led to him being knocked the fugg out by a barber in 2008

 

 

Sorry Suga Bear, but this still cracks me the f**k up!

Death Row was home to not only Dre who had the chronic, but Snoop Dog, Tha Dog Pound, Lady of Rage, Tupac Shakur, and a stable of artists that we didn’t care about.  It was around this time that Dre began beefing with former label and bandmate Eazy E, who accused Dre of liking the boys more than he liked the girls.  Labelmate and songstress Jewell also corroborated rumors that it was common knowledge that Dre kissed a boy and liked it when he was @ Death Row ;0)

 This could also explain Dre’s reputation as a woman beater earned when he beat the crap out of Dee Barnes for having Ice Cube on her show Pump It Up. What’s with these closeted homo-thugs and beating on women?

However it wasn’t long before Dre was on the outs again.  He left Death Row Records and formed his own label Aftermath, and introducing Eminem and Fifty Cent to the world.  He also found himself acting in films like Training Day, The Wash, and Set It Off.  But of course we all know that these celebs must pay their dues.  In 2009, Dre’s oldest son Andre Jr. was found dead in his bedroom by his mother.  The coroner ruled the death an accident from ingesting too much heroine and morphine.

One year later Dre secures a deal with HP worth 40 million dollars.  He’ also has a pair of headphones named after him call Beats by Dre.  The suckers cost anywhere from 2 to five hundred dollars a pop.  Here’s a commerical with Dre promoting the three sixes…

Under Pressure

Knowing what agenda he’s pushing makes me nervous about these headphones.  I’m convinced that these things feed subliminal satanic messages to those who wear them.  I’m good!

Queen Halle

Posted in Ab-Fab!, fashion, Halle Berry, red carpet on February 21st, 2009 by dirtygurl

I’ve always admired Halle Berry’s fashion choices, and this one is no different.  Here’s Halle gracing the red carpet, and putting others to shame at the Essence  Black Women In Film Awards Luncheon in Los Angeles.  I love the dress by Reem Acra, but the back is just a bit fussy for me, but despite that Halle pulls it off flawlessly.  I also adore the CL peeptoe, platform, slingbacks.

She Was Down, But Not Out!

Posted in Rihanna on February 21st, 2009 by dirtygurl

Rihanna was spotted in L.A. on her way to the airport.  As you all can see, the girl is back to her normal, gorgeousness.    Her birthday was yesterday (Friday) so happy belated b-day Ri.

Emerging a stronger person, hopefully she'll leave that savage alone, and get some counseling.

Working the Red Carpet @ the NAACP Image Awards Pre-Show

Posted in Ab-Fab!, Angela Simmons, Award Shows, fashion, red carpet, Taraji P. Henson, Tatyana Ali, Vanessa Simmons on February 12th, 2009 by dirtygurl

These lovely ladies continue to put their foots in fashion, well except Angela Simmons, who just can’t seem to find her way through the fashion jungle.  I have hope for her yet, and I think that as she matures, she’s going to find her look, however this just isn’t it.  I’ve alway thought Angela was pretty cute, but all that hair isn’t going to cut it.  I don’t like the jumpsuit’s plunging neckline, and the fact that her bra is showing.  The whole thing just looks ill-fitting.  As her older, and more stylish sister, Vanessa needs to take Angie under her stylish wing.

 

Keep trying, one day you will get it right.

Keep trying, one day you will get it right.

Older sister Vanessa’s look is so 50′s, as evidenced by the skirt, meets rocker chick with the leather jacket.  She looks young, fresh, and fun.  I just wish I had a better look at those shoes, because they look like they may be FEROCIOUS! Anyway, this isn’t surprising, because I can’t remember a time when Vanessa didn’t bring her A-game.

Love the look Vanessa!

Love the look Vanessa!

Taraji killed it in her yellow/orange dress.  She looks like a walking flame, and a definite Oscar caliber actress!  I’m keeping my fingers crossed that she will take it home.  She’s most definitely becoming more evolved with her fashion choices, as the dress, hair, and makeup are flawless.  I’m not all that crazy about the shoes, but I’ll overlook them.  Has she been getting style tips from another Oscar winning actress?

The dress is ab-fab, go on Taraji!

Look at Tatyana Ali looking gorgeous.  She doesn’t look that much different from when she played Will’s younger cousin on the Fresh Prince.  I like this dress on her.  It’s very age appropriate for the 30 year old actress/singer.  Once again, the shoes don’t inspire me, but she looks gorgeous.

It's Nice To See Jennifer Smiling, But the Outfit Has To Go!

Posted in fashion, Funky Fashion Faux Pas, Hudsons, Jennifer Hudson on February 7th, 2009 by dirtygurl

Now that JHud is back on the scene, and seems to be coming to terms with her family tragedy, I can go back to critiquing her clothes.  Here’s Miss Jen @ an event for “Music Cares, and I gotta tell you, I’m not thrilled about the gold business blazer, or those awful gladiator sandals that look a little too small. 

Not that the outfit can’t be salvaged if she’d take off the jacket and donate it to Goodwill, along with the shoes.  Jennifer’s lost some weight which given what happened is perfectly normal.  She’s looking good, and she’s sporting a big smile, which always looks good.  I just don’t want to see her start “going Hollywood” and losing so much weight she looks like a bauble-head, like a certain someone.  Anyway,  my fave Dreamgirl is up for four Grammy’s this year, and I’m sure she’ll take at least one home.  That will make an Oscar, and a Grammy.  Now if she can just win a Tony, she’ll have upstaged Beyonce once again!

Jennifer in L.A.  She should have re-thought the jacket and shoes.

Cute Shoes….Rihanna

Posted in Diva Wannabes, fashion, Love Those Shoes!, Rihanna on February 5th, 2009 by dirtygurl

Rihanna wandering the streets of L.A. in some really cute shoes.  I normally don’t like this color when it comes to shoes, but these make me re-think that!  She and Chris are together so much, that she looks weird without him.  When her singing career fizzles, she’s got a great future as a runway model with those long legs.

Thanx for the photo Concrete Loop!

Kimo And Djimon

Posted in Baby News, Kimora Simmons, Movies, red carpet on January 30th, 2009 by dirtygurl

I absolutely adore Kimora Lee Simmons, and here she is on the red carpet at the Los Angeles premiere of Push, which took home multiple awards from Sundance.  Anyway, I just think these two are such a good looking couple, and are obviously in love with each other.   Kimora shuts bossip critics up by glamming it up.  I love that she can be casually cute one day, and a glowing diva the next.  Peep the hand action going on behind her back.  I wonder if she smiled this much when she was with Russell?  BTW…Kimora has some pretty big feet…like me, and I love that she put some thought into where to place her tat..not only is it small, but it’s in a place that really doesn’t take away from her overall look.  Now, I love Mary J Blige, and Keyshia Cole, but when they glam it up, all I see are those horrible tats.  Ladies, stop inking yourselves up, it only looks foolish when you get older!

Kimo is all smiles, and Djimon is as suave as ever

Taraji P. Henson Lights Up SAG's Red Carpet

Posted in fashion, Movies, Taraji P. Henson on January 26th, 2009 by dirtygurl

Taraji strikes a pose on the red carpet in Los Angeles

I”ve always like Taraji P. Henson, especially in Hustle and Flow, where she played a mentally challenged, pregnant, hoe ( Did I fuck up?).   She didn’t win the Award for her role in the movie Benjamin Button with Brad Pitt, but she sure did stun on the red carpet in a white Herve Leroux gown.  Taraji was flawless from head to toe. The hair was simple, the make-up was understated, and the dress was  elegant, without being over the top.  In order to pull of such a form fitting white dress you’d better have on some fantastic foundation garments, or be  in tip-top shape, as white will show every ripple, dent, and roll on your body.  I’m hearing nothing but good things about Benjamin Button, so I guess that’s what I’ll be doing tonight.  Anyway, Taraji…keep up the good work, and I’m sure your time to shine is right around the corner.
