Having gone through a really rough patch both on and off the field recently for dog fighting, Michael Vick has climbed back into many fans good graces.
The Philadelphia Eagles QB talked with the Wall Street Journal about coming out of prison a better man, what choices he would change in his life, mentoring younger players and advice for Chris Brown and Charlie Sheen.
On Chris Brown : “Just put your faith in God. Don’t worry about what people say about you. Words will never hurt you. The things that people can say out of their mouth can cut you deep. And sometimes a tongue can be sharper than a knife. But at the same time, you should never allow that to push you over the edge. You should have more self-control. You control your own destiny. You’re still admired by so many people.”
On Charlie Sheen: "Charlie Sheen's going to be Charlie Sheen. He's gonna be successful whatever he do, and Chris Brown too."

Queens legend, Cormega visited earthquake ravaged Haiti recently, and what he saw was a lot of people still in need of help. With all of the millions that have been generated through donations, Mega said the country looks as if it hasn't received a dime.
"They deserve honorable people helping them, instead of all this f*ckery that's going on." Cormega says in an interview with Mikey T The Movie Star.
Mega said that some people will be surprised at the work actor Sean Penn is putting in behind the scenes.
"I gained a lot of respect for certain people while I was out there, and I lost a lot of respect for some," Mega said. "The person that surprised me the most is Sean Penn. "Here you have an "A" list actor, he was out there while I was and he was in those tents helping those people."
Entertainers like Shakira, Wyclef Jean and George Clooney have also been huge contributors in helping Haiti get back on it's feet. While some in he media accuse certain celebrities of capitalizing on tragedies like the one in Haiti for personal gain, Cormega said Penn was he real deal.
"I've seen a story in the media where they said he was trying to do it for attention - that's a lie, he was out there when there was no media attention," Mega insists.
The biggest shock for Cormega and those who have visited the country recently is the lack of progress being made in rebuilding the country.
"I thought, and a lot of people in America thought Haiti was straight. Like all of the money that was generated. We thought 'oh they made such and such millions they're straight.' Bet when I went out there a lot of people were saying it's like the money never came ... and it shows."

Lil B has shown in the past his bizarre sense of humor when it comes to his sexuality.
Last year he made the controversial tweet that if Kanye West didn't respond to him on twitter he was going to "f*ck him in the ass." Now he's announced he will be naming his new album 'I'm Gay.'
"I'm gonna do the most controversial thing in hip-hop," Lil B told the Coachella crowd in Indio, California this weekend. "Ya'll heard it first. And I'mma just show you that words don't mean sh*t. I'mma make an album called 'I'm Gay,' right?" he continued. "Now I'mma tell you why I'm the first person to do it in hip-hop and why you're the first people to know my reasons," the rapper explained. "I'm just gonna tell you. So many people be worried about what people mean and definitions of words and sh*t... Now I like women, I love women, you feel me. But within yourselves, no matter what you do, it doesn't matter, it's like live life. You've only got one life to live. Be happy."
What do yall think of 'I'm Gay' as the title of an album? Is Lil B going overboard or just being a comedian?

Day two of the Coachella Music Festival saw Raphael Saadiq and Erykah Badu grace the stage.
Badu performed a bit of everything during her 36 minute set. She had to wake the lazy crowd up during "On & On" asking them "damn yall don't feel that?"
Saadiq would take the stage later in the evening. with a damn good band in tow. Raphael's set was a lengthy 45 minutes, but seemed to fly by as he jammed out to hits like "Be Here" and "Staying in Love."

Helping to kick off the first day of the Coachella Festival, Lauryn Hill and Cee Lo both performed, but only one of them left happy Saturday (April 15) in Indio, California.
Hill's nearly 40 minute set included everything from "Lost Ones" to "Ex Factor." Hill then asked the crowd "how many Fugee fans do we have in the house tonight?" before tearing into "Fu Gee La" and "Ready Or Not."
The crowd of mostly teen kids didn't seem to recognize a lot of her songs and Hill was raspy voiced throughout, but she made up for that with enthusiasm and a solid band.
Meanwhile, Cee Lo got a raw deal as his set for cut short after only 3 songs.
After apparently starting his set late, the festival's organizer's pulled the plug on the Goodie Mob member as he sang Journey's "Don't Stop Believing."

Earlier this year Birdman was named one of the top 5 wealthiest artists. It's Stunnas first time on the list. He was joined by 50 Cent, Dr Dre, Diddy, Jay-Z, all estimated to be worth $100 Million or more.
During a recent interview with Uptown Angela, Birdman said his numbers weren't calculated correctly.
"I don't know where they get that sh*t from. I'm valued at more than $100 million," Birdman said. "That's a low number for a n*gga like me, but it's cool though."
Known for stunting every chance he can get, Birdman talked about his desire to buy a one-of-a-kind $8 million dollar Maybach.
"I offered them $10 mil for it, but they won't sell it." Birdman says.
Looks like there are still a few things money can't buy.
