...for NOT knowing who Peabo Bryson is! COME ON!!
Anyway...
RIHANNA, GRAB-ASSING...
RIHANNA is one of those artists who sells sex just as much as she sells music. I'm not complaining about that.
At the Staples Center in Los Angeles the other night, she paraded her stuff onstage in a weird bikini outfit decorated with jewels...and even grabbed her own backside.
Pics? Gotta hit the FB! http://www.facebook.com/robbiemackpage
WINNING!!!....BY TAKING THE ROIDS
When CHARLIE SHEEN gets into character, he goes all out. Charlie tells "Sports Illustrated" that he took STEROIDS while filming the 1989 comedy "Major League".
He says, "Let's just say that I was enhancing my performance a little bit. It was the only time I ever did steroids.
"I did them for like six or eight weeks. You can print this, I don't give a [eff]. My fastball went from 79 [miles-per-hour] to like 85."
He was also getting into a lot of fights at the time. But only part of that was due to 'roid rage. The other part was the teasing he took because of his character's lightning bolt haircut.
He says, "I didn't like the haircut because it generated so many comments in bars. I've got enough of that already. Add that to the mix, and it's a recipe for a fistfight."
JT BOUGHT MYSPACE...
After appearing in "The Social Network"...JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE'S latest project is to revitalize MySpace. In fact, he even bought a stake in it.
But it sounds like competing with Facebook is low on his list of priorities. He says, "There's a need for a place where fans can go to interact with their favorite entertainers, listen to music, watch videos, share and discover cool stuff and just connect.
Facebook anyone? Youtube? Yeah.
"MySpace has the potential to be that place. Art is inspired by people and vice versa, so there's a natural social component to entertainment.
"I'm excited to help revitalize MySpace by using its social media platform to bring artists and fans together in one community."
More people now view social media sites than porno sites.
Except for MySpace. No one goes there anymore.
Yesterday, a company called Specific Media bought MySpace from News Corp., which is the company that owns FOX.
Specific Media paid $35 MILLION for MySpace. When News Corp. bought it back in 2005, they paid $580 MILLION. Meaning that in six years, it lost 94% of its value.
News Corp. was initially hoping to get $100 MILLION.
As part of the sale, MySpace will be laying off more than half of its 450 employees. We're not entirely sure what those 450 employees were doing there, but that's not the point.
Specific Media has said they plan to, "rebuild and reinvigorate" MySpace and try to make it a place where people can watch media and interact with entertainers. Specific Media's main business is...........selling online ads.
