Mila Kunis In April's GQ Magazine: That 70's Show Star Says She Loves "A Good D**k Joke". Check Out Her Pics + Interview Inside

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on March 22, 2010 at 6:38pm

For eight years, Mila Kunis played a stoner on That '70s Show. Thankfully, she's back on familiar ground this month, getting smoked out of drug den by Tina Fey in Date Night. Groovy

There are things in this existence that are fair, and there are things that are not. The rules of backgammon are undeniably fair. That Macaulay Culkin gets Mila Kunis is not. It's not just that she looks like an anime cartoon. Or that she's the ultimate guys'-girl, having starred in everything from The Book of Eli to Family Guy. Or that she is the type of comedian that steals every scene she's in, most recently (and perhaps most impressively) as a foulmouthed stripper turned blackmailer who helps ruin Tina Fey and Steve Carell's nice, suburban lives in this month's Date Night. She is all those things, of course. But Mila Kunis also happens to be one of the funniest women we've ever had the good fortune to speak with.

"I love a good d*ck joke," she says, in a tone usually reserved for topics like Iranian nuclear enrichment or troop levels in Waziristan. "Fart jokes. Poop jokes. They're hilarious. They never get old. But especially not a d*ck joke." Given that kind of setup, it's impossible not to bring up 2008's Forgetting Sarah Marshall, in which Ms. Kunis acted opposite a stark-naked Jason Segel. "Look, I want it on the record, okay?" she says. "It's a nice d*ck. Well proportioned. Handsome. I have nothing but good things to say about Jason Segel's penis."

Troubled Basketball Player Gilbert Arenas Loses His Mother

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on March 22, 2010 at 5:10pm

Gilbert Arenas already faces a difficult week ahead, with his sentencing for felony gun possession set for Friday. But Arenas's troubles were magnified recently, when he discovered that his estranged mother, Mary Francis Robinson, died in Miami.

Robinson passed away on March 13, but Arenas didn't find out until a few days later, according to multiple sources. The cause of her death is not known.

Arenas wasn't close to his mother, who abandoned him at young age and left him to be raised by his father, Gilbert Sr., from the time that he was 3. Arenas met his mother only once in the past 25 years. In his second season with the Golden State Warriors, Robinson approached him after a game in Miami. Although he has not been in communication with Robinson, Arenas paid for her funeral expenses.

Arenas is said to be distraught over her death. Arenas said he never held any animosity toward his mother, but his one encounter is believed to have traumatized him. Arenas always said that he planned on reconnecting with Robinson after his playing days were over. He never got the chance.

Death Row Records Vet RBX Speaks Out On "3-Ring Circus" Label Has Become, Thinks It Will Be Sold Again

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on March 22, 2010 at 12:21pm

Veteran Rapper From Long Beach, RBX, Issues New Statement On Death Row Records.

LONG BEACH CA, Back in the original days of Death Row, producer, writer, tastemaker RBX could be found pushing the line on the streets of Southern Cali. Known for his work with Dr. Dre, The Dogg Pound, Snoop Dogg, Korn, Brother J, Eminem and many more, RBX rarely speaks to the press, but when he does it is the truth.

In a statement made today, RBX asks the question every hard-core Death Row fan wants to know;

"I have been watching the three ring circus of these Canadians buying Death Row for the last year or so. I just read a crazy article on line where the guy in charge now - some banker Robert Thompson-So and his sidekick John Payne announced to the world they are looking for someone to buy them out because they don't to be in the Death Row records business any more (Wall Street Journal).

I just have one thing I have to ask these guys. What tha f--k were you thinking .......seriously? We all had a little bit of hope when this game started but due to the shananigans, optimism is dwindling. Word on the street in Southern Cal is that Lara Lavi, the woman these guys kicked out of the mix is seriously backed by new heavy hitters on Wall Street. I have received phone calls confirming Lavi has a new deal. I don't know whether she on to something new or trying to buy back her company. I don't know the woman but damn she is truly unfadeable.

So I have to ask, why do these New Solution guys continue to beat on her in court if she might just be the most likely candidate to buy them out given they asked for it last week.

I just don't get it. The fans and the artists deserve better than this mess. Uncut...."

RBX first joined Death Row Records in 1992, with his cousin Snoop Dogg. After a noteworthy appearance on Dr. Dre's The Chronic, he then made cameos on various Death Row Records releases, and has released several acclaimed solo projects that have drawn many dedicated fans and admirers of his unorthodox sound.

For Dr Dre The 'Detox' Album Has To Be Perfect

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on March 22, 2010 at 7:30am

Dr. Dre’s Detox has been alluding fans for six years now, with little known about when the hip-hop icon’s long-awaited opus will arrive. Where most albums are pushed back due to label turmoil or economic mishaps, it’s Dre’s perfectionism that has been the driving force behind the Detox delay. Rap-Up.com caught up with the Doc’s protégé and former Shady/Aftermath signee Stat Quo, who shed some light on the heavily-guarded project.

“It’s whenever Dre’s ready,” the Atlanta MC tells Rap-Up.com. “If you want my opinion on it, I think he wants to be confident in what he has to put out as an ensemble piece. Dre is hip-hop in a sense, so hip-hop needs him to put out a great album, ’cause if he doesn’t, it affects all of us—not just what he does, but the whole culture.”

Stat is no stranger to album setbacks himself, which is part of the reason he chose to depart Shady/Aftermath in 2008. However, Eminem and Dre’s influence on him as an artist, as well as a person, has remained a vital part of who he’s become today. “Em has taught me, in terms of function, how to put a rhyme together, just being around him and watching him, I’ve taken that and incorporated that in what I do,” he says. “And Dre is just all around a better artist, a better person. Whenever I need advice on anything—my personal life, business, whatever—I go and ask him. He’s like a real live mentor for me.”

Despite not being part of the Shady/Aftermath family any more, it’s still all love between Stat and his mentors. The rapper was actually featured in one of Dre’s recent HP commercials (and as a result has created a pseudonym for himself—Russell Quo), and has also been one person who’s had a chance to not only listen to, but be a part of Detox. “I still work with Dre every day,” he reveals. “I’ve heard and been a part of some incredible music.”

The burden of perfectionism is a heavy one—and apparently a six-year long one, but it’s clearly something that Dre takes very seriously and has passed onto Stat as well. “He’s very important and he knows that, so he’s not just gonna put out some bullsh*t. You never get that second chance to make that first impression.”

Stat Quo’s debut album Statlanta has a tentative release date of June 22. As for Detox, Stat assures it’s coming sooner than later. “I think he’s gonna be putting something out real soon,” he adds. “It’s all on him. He’s the captain. We’re ship hands working on that ship.”

Jim Jones Previews 'The Ghost Of Rich Porter' Mixtape [Video]

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on March 22, 2010 at 6:18am

Video After The Jump

This Week's Main Pick

Street King: Jim Jones

Holding It Down For: Harlem, USA

Mixtape Album: The Ghost of Rich Porter

Real Spit: Across 110th Street, Jim Jones grabbed his favorite hero — roast beef with ketchup — and threw waves to the police as squad cars rolled by. One of his old friends, just out of jail, came by and got love from the whole crew, which included Jim and Byrd Gang member Sen City. Jones stood in front of a mural of his late friend Bloodshed, a cousin of Cam'ron's.

Jones spoke of beloved late Harlem figures such as Blood and Rich Porter.

"It's a lot of meanings behind that title," Jones said of his mixtape, The Ghost of Rich Porter, which comes out Tuesday. "If you're not familiar with Harlem, I'll hip you to game kinda quick. If you're not familiar with Rich Porter, he set the precedent for us as far as how we wanted to live. As far as getting fast money — the cash, the cars, the girls. Then the underlying story behind it — the betrayal, the disloyalty, the backstabbing. Rich was special to Harlem.

"If it wasn't for people like Rich and a few other people, people wouldn't understand Harlem, as far as the culture, the style. So I credit him for that," Jim continued. "There'll never be another Rich Porter in Harlem. He set the precedent for us. It was him we was coming up looking at. On the flipside, I say it's the 'ghost,' because when you think what me, Cam and Juelz and Zeek have done for Harlem, it's changed from when we was directly in the streets to what we doing now. When we come back now, it's like people looking at a ghost. Some people are in awe, some people don't know what they looking at. We're in the 'hood."

Shawty Lo, Gucci Mane and the Byrd Gang all appear on the mixtape.

"For the past half a year, six, seven months," Jim said of the tape's title, "all I been hearing is people saying it's a recession. It's getting bad. I never knew it not to be a recession in Harlem. That's why it's Harlem. We found a way to get the money. If it wasn't no job opportunities, our next best thing was to hustle. I'm not telling you what to hustle. I'm not advocating you do anything illegal. I'm advocating you get the money, the moolah, the muggah! That's what it's all about. That's what it portrays.

"You won't hear your traditional pop hit," Jim added. "What you will hear is some hustle music that will make you hit the block early. ... Put that iPod on, hit the train or the bus, get on that commute. All my strap-hangers. Then we'll get to the album and fulfill all your dreams with all that radio music [later]."

Jim's fifth solo album will be out later this year. It will be an independent release through E1. He has no title yet.

Joints to Check For

» "Black on Black." "A lot of car talk on that 'Black on Black,' " Jim said, sitting in his all-black 2010 Camaro. "I step outside, it looks like a funeral, all the black cars I bring to your 'hood. Regular sh--. I'm a car connoisseur. I love fast toys. I love talking sh--, because I can back it up. Still keep a pocketful. What are you doing? 2010 Camaro, this is the latest one. SS and all that. 500 horses. Eight cylinder. Do a 360 on your block with no clutch. Holla!"

» "This How That Life Go." "It's talking about the procedures you go through when you filling up those little bottles," Jim explained. "Survival tactics you need in the game. Talking about when the rap game goes bad, the risks I'm willing to take so I can maintain the life I'm living. Sometimes that risk could be hellafied. Talking about Uptown, how it's dry Uptown in that work area when it used to be liquid. I shouldn't say all this on TV, huh? But it's cold up here in Harlem."

» "Cocaine Dreams." "True story. My man had three blocks 'He was pumpin'/ Three blocks he was runnin'/ Now he's damn near back to pumpin'.' Crazy, right? 'Recession caught him right, where Stevie couldn't Wonder/ He said his car didn't match the summer.' Ya heard? That's how we live up here. The car gotta match the summer. That means the top gotta go off. [The guy in the song] had to go back. The same thing that could make you rich could be the same thing that make you poor. The same thing that makes you laugh makes you cry."

Historic Day For America: Health Care Reform Bill Passes By Vote Of 219-212 [Video]

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on March 21, 2010 at 11:00pm

Video After The Jump

WASHINGTON - The Democratic-controlled Congress approved historic legislation Sunday night extending health care to tens of millions of uninsured Americans and cracking down on insurance company abuses, a climactic chapter in the century-long quest for near universal coverage.

Widely viewed as dead two months ago, the Senate-passed bill cleared the House on a 219-212 vote, with Republicans unanimous in opposition.

Congressional officials said they expected Obama to sign the bill as early as Tuesday.

Republicans hoped that by blocking the legislation, they would be able to thwart Obama's ambitious domestic agenda, including immigration reform and climate change legislation.

While national health care has long been a goal of presidents stretching back decades, it has proved elusive, in part because self-reliance and suspicion of a strong central government remain strong in the U.S.

Obama planned to make a statement to the nation Sunday night after the vote.

After more than a year of political combat - certain to persist into the fall election campaign for control of Congress - debate on the House floor fell along predictable lines.

"We will be joining those who established Social Security, Medicare and now, tonight, health care for all Americans," said Speaker Nancy Pelosi before the vote, referring the government's pension program and health insurance for the elderly.

Republicans opposed the measure as a takeover of government health care that would cut Medicare for the elderly and raise taxes by nearly $1 trillion combined.

"We have failed to listen to America," Rep. John Boehner the Republican leader said ahead of the vote.

Earlier in the day, the House argued its way through a thicket of Republican objections toward an evening vote on the bill to extend coverage to 32 million Americans who lack it, ban insurers from denying coverage on the basis of pre-existing medical conditions and cut deficits by an estimated $138 billion over a decade.

A shouting band of protesters outside the Capitol dramatized their opposition, and one man stood up in the House visitor's gallery shouting, "Kill the bill" before he was ushered out - evidence of the passions the yearlong debate over health care has stirred.

Obama lobbied by phone from the White House, then took the crucial step of issuing an executive order that satisfied a small group of Democrats who demanded that no federal funds be used for elective abortions.

Over and over, Democrats stressed the historic nature of the day. The measure represents the biggest expansion of the social safety net since Medicare and Medicaid were enacted in 1965 during President Lyndon B. Johnson's administration to provide government-funded health care coverage to the elderly and poor.

"Health care isn't only a civil right, it's a moral issue," said Democratic Rep. Patrick Kennedy. He said his late father, Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, had worked his entire career for nationwide health care, and President John F. Kennedy before him.

Obama has said often that presidents of both parties have tried without success to achieve national health insurance, beginning with Theodore Roosevelt early in the 20th century.

The 44th president's quest to succeed where others have failed seemed at a dead end two months ago, when Republicans won a special election to fill Edward Kennedy's Massachusetts Senate seat, and with it, enough votes to prevent a final vote.

But the White House, Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Reid soon came up with a rescue plan that required the House to approve the Senate-passed measure despite opposition to many of its provisions, then have both chambers pass a fix-it measure incorporating numerous changes.

Under the legislation, most Americans would be required to purchase insurance, and face penalties if they refused. Much of the money in the bill would be devoted to subsidies to help families at incomes of up to $88,000 a year pay their premiums.

The legislation would also usher in a significant expansion of Medicaid, the federal-state health care program for the poor.

The insurance industry would come under new federal regulation. They would be forbidden from placing lifetime dollar limits on policies, from denying coverage because of pre-existing conditions and from canceling policies when a policyholder becomes ill.

Parents would be able to keep older children on their coverage up to age 26. A new high-risk pool would offer coverage to uninsured people with medical problems until 2014, when the coverage expansion goes into high gear.

Once enacted, the two bills would create a series of so-called "insurance exchanges" beginning in 2014 where self-employed people and small businesses could pool together to shop for health care coverage.

To pay for the changes, the legislation includes more than $400 billion in higher taxes over a decade, roughly half of it from a new Medicare payroll tax on individuals with incomes over $200,000 and couples over $250,000.

SPOKANE, Wash. -- Police are searching for a man accused of offering to sell his son on Craigslist for $5,000.

In the ad, the father identified himself as a single parent dad by the name of "Rick" who has run out of child care options.

"Gavin is a great kid but I can no longer afford to take care of him," the ad said. "I don't know what else to do other than find a good family with kids or a couple that wants a son. I just won't give him to anyone."

"loves playing with balls, but doesn't really like to play with cars and refuses to eat vegetables."

"He doesn't fuss very much but when he does, he just screams for hours. I usually just put him in the closet until he stops, and that usually works,"the posting said.

The posting was only up for a short time, but long enough for a concerned woman to copy and forward the ad to sheriff's detectives.

Label Tells Joell Ortiz To Start A Beef If He Ever Wants To Drop "Free Agent" Album

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on March 21, 2010 at 6:24am

For fans who are wondering what the holdup is on the Joell Ortiz album, Free Agent, Joell answered it via Twitter.

In a series of tweets, Joell spoke about his disappointment in the lack of support from his label.

“It's crazy to be on a label that says that no one knows me but when i get outside. the car horns beep and all yall yell YAOWA!”

“Its funny cause when I tell them to let me go cause Im such a burden the whole convo changes. I dont give a f*ck”
Although Joell has two singles in rotation that are burning up radio airwaves, “Call Me” and his remix to Lloyd Bank's “Beamer, Benz and Bentleys”, “Nissan, Honda, Chevy,” the label still feels that he is not received by fans as a “good rapper.”

According to Ortiz:

“The label asked me if I have a twitter account! Then they said I need to do something "controversial" (beef) to market myself. this is true!”

“I was told that I am marketing myself as a "good rapper" i need to be more rock n roll. I am not lying.”

Don't think that the lack of support is stopping Joell Ortiz as he is promising fans that there is more hot music to come:

“shout to all the promoters out there that support the real and all the fans that support. I give it all on that stage every night”

“btw, we leaking another joint next week with a video WE paid for.”

With constant statements like this, the majors are gonna be on pause in a second as being independent definitely seems the way to go in 2010.

Epic Fail : "Scarface", A Mafia Hitman On 100 Most Wanted List. Caught After Using Facebook To Chat [Video]

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on March 20, 2010 at 10:30am

Video After The Jump

A cold-blooded Mafia hitman who called himself "Scarface" was arrested by Italian police on Tuesday after being tracked down via his Facebook account, The Sun reported.

Pasquale Manfredi, 33, was on Italy's 100 Most Wanted List and had been on the run for a year with police wanting to question him in connection with two bloody Mob hits.

The father-of-two is said to have been behind the murder of rival mobster Carmine Arena who was taken out with a bazooka in October 2004 and Pasquale Tripaldi a year later.

Officers had been tipped off that Manfredi was a fan of the global social networking site and regularly logged on using his laptop.

Using sophisticated electronic surveillance equipment in an operation codenamed Pandora, officers managed to locate Manfredi at an apartment in Isola Capo Rizzuto near Crotone in southern Italy.

The area is the heartland of the local Mafia, known as the N'drangheta, who are known for their vicious violence and were responsible for the so-called Duisburg Massacre two years ago in which six mobsters were gunned down in a German pizzeria.

Officers from the Rome Central Operation Service handled the investigation along with local officers in Crotone and were led by Edgardo Giobbi, who was also involved in the Meredith Kercher case.

Manfredi would log on under the Facebook name Georgie. Officers said they believed he received coded orders via the site and also kept in touch with mobsters.

Manfredi had more than 200 friends on his Facebook site and police are going through them systematically to see if any others are involved in Mafia activity or are wanted.

During the early morning raid on his top floor apartment Manfredi had tried to escape by climbing out of a window and running along roof tops but was eventually held.

Giobbi said: "Manfredi is a good catch. He is particular cold and cruel. We tracked him down because we had information he was using a key to log on to the Internet and in particular use Facebook.

"The operation lasted several months and was successful thanks to good police work and sophisticated technology. Manfredi is suspected of at least two murders and is also wanted for drugs and arms offences.

"He is a very dangerous character and he was on the country's 100 Most Wanted but now one can be taken off the list thanks to meticulous police work and a through investigation."

"Scarface" is a 1983 epic gangster film starring Al Pacino as Godfather Tony Montana.

This is not the first time Italian law enforcement has used Facebook to track down criminals. Last October, police near Rome arrested a burglar who logged on to the social network during a break-in and sent messages to his friends.

Nicki Minaj Explains Why She & Drake Skipped The XXL 2010 Freshman Cover "We Graduated From The Freshman Class" [Video]

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on March 20, 2010 at 3:15am

Nicki Minaj said she told XXL magazine, "No disrespect, but no thanks." The sexy rapper declined the invitation to be a part of the 2010 Freshmen 10 issue because, like her Young Money compatriot Drake, she felt she should have been down last year.

"Drake and I, we love XXL," she told us recently on the set of her video for "Massive Attack." "We just shot for XXL. With all due respect, we felt like we kinda had graduated from the freshman class. We felt that XXL missed the mark when they didn't put us on the cover prior to that. They have to pay for that. They can't say, 'Hey, get on the next one.' But we love XXL. That's like a hip-hop classic. So we said, 'Can we have something just a little bit more catered to us, so that we feel like we have still grown as artists, so we're not at all disrespecting the magazine?' They were cool with that.

"We didn't dictate, we just asked nicely," Nicki smiled.

"Technically, we were freshmen when they didn't put us on," Drake told ImFlashy.com in February. "I feel now it's just returning the favor."

Earlier this month, the publication revealed their Freshmen 10. The roster consisted of OJ Da Juiceman, Nipsey Hussle, Jay Rock, Pill, Donnis, Fashawn, J. Cole, Wiz Khalifah, Freddie Gibbs and Big Sean.

Mr. Wavy may wash ashore sooner than expected. XXLMag.com spoke with incarcerated rapper Max B’s manager, Joli O’Shay, earlier today (Mar. 19) and she says the Harlemite was recently granted an appeal in his murder case.

According to O’Shay, Max is now sitting tight as he awaits an actual appeal date. Once that comes in the MC known as Biggavelli, has a new lawyer to fight for his innocence. “He’s gonna try hopefully to go back to trial, or get it a mistrial or get it time served, whatever we can do,” she said.

As previously reported, Max was sentenced to 75 years in prison on September 3, 2009 for orchestrating a 2006 robbery that left a man slain in a Fort Lee, New Jersey hotel.

The former Jim Jones protégé was convicted of felony murder, aggravated manslaughter, kidnapping, armed robbery and conspiracy.

O’Shay, who speaks to Max daily, says he’s in good spirits about the appeal.
