Tiger Woods Issues Statement, Will Be Taking Indefinite Break Away From Golf To "Focus On Being A Better Husband, Father & Person"

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on December 11, 2009 at 6:30pm

Tiger Woods said Friday he is taking an indefinite leave from golf to work on saving his marriage, using the word "infidelity" for the first time in a statement posted on his Web site. "After much soul searching, I have decided to take an indefinite break from professional golf," Woods said. "I need to focus my attention on being a better husband, father, and person." The announcement came two weeks after a car accident that set in motion a shocking downfall for the world's No. 1 player, which has included sordid allegations of numerous extramarital affairs. One woman even shared a voicemail she said Woods left her two nights before his Nov. 27 accident. Woods has not been seen in public since the accident. "I am deeply aware of the disappointment and hurt that my infidelity has caused to so many people, most of all my wife and children," Woods said. "I want to say again to everyone that I am profoundly sorry and that I ask forgiveness. It may not be possible to repair the damage I've done, but I want to do my best to try." How long Woods will stay away from golf was unclear. PGA Tour commissioner Tim Finchem said "we look forward to Tiger's return to the PGA Tour when he determines the time is right for him." "We fully support Tiger's decision to step away from competitive golf to focus on his family," Finchem said Friday in a statement. "His priorities are where they need to be, and we will continue to respect and honor his family's request for privacy." A year ago, Woods was out of golf for eight months while recovering from reconstructive knee surgery, and television ratings dropped 50 percent during his absence. "I would like to ask everyone, including my fans, the good people at my foundation, business partners, the PGA Tour, and my fellow competitors, for their understanding," the statement says. "What's most important now is that my family has the time, privacy, and safe haven we will need for personal healing." Woods and his wife, Elin, have been married five years and have a 2-year-old daughter and 10-month-old son. "Again, I ask for privacy for my family and I am especially grateful for all those who have offered compassion and concern during this difficult period."

'50th Law' Co-Author Robert Greene Takes Us Inside The Mind Of 50 Cent. Says The G-Unit General Wanted To Make Rapper, The Game "Go Away"

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on December 11, 2009 at 6:19pm

Lil Kim said it best, “Money, power, respect… That’s the key to life.” In hip-hop especially there are no greater motivational tools than those three. Dissect the importance of each, and you’ll see that the first and third are byproducts of the second. And there are few scholars out there with more knowledge on how to obtain power than writer Robert Greene. A New York Times best-selling author, Greene is best known for his 2000 book, The 48 Laws of Power, which has become a guiding force behind the dollar-chasing pursuits of Wall Street types and politicians, as well as music industry elite. Perhaps Greene’s biggest rapper-fan is Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, whose appreciation for the Los Angeles-born scribe’s work culminated in their collaborative text, The 50th Law. Released this past September, the book breaks down the key to triumph as a not-too-simple conquering of one’s own fears. To compile the nearly-300-page tome, Greene shadowed 50 for six months back in 2007, everything from attending meetings alongside the megastar to spending time at his Connecticut mansion. XXLMag.com recently caught up with Greene to discuss his time with the rapper/mogul who directly inspired The 50th Law. His insights may just paint a whole new Curtis Jackson picture. XXLMag.com: How did you and 50 first meet to work on this book? Robert Greene: Someone in his team had reached out to me in, I think it was early 2006. He’d read The 48 Laws of Power [and] found it very helpful, dealing with the music business, like a lot of other rappers. So, he wanted to meet me. I didn’t precisely know why at that time; I thought he was thinking about a book, and also there was all that stuff going on with Game, and he wanted to talk about that, which we did talk about. We met in this steakhouse in Manhattan, [in] the backroom. He had his entourage of about 10 people, and I was just by myself. [Laughs]. XXLMag.com: That must have been intimidating? Robert Greene: His son was there, and his manager and agent and a few others. It was really good. I didn’t know what to expect, so I was a little surprised. He was more open, and he wasn’t intimidating at all. And I think I wasn’t what he was expecting—he was probably thinking this old man, kind of like Henry Kissinger, and I wasn’t like that. So I think we were both surprised, in a good way. We felt really comfortable. XXLMag.com: Where you even familiar with 50’s music at that time? Robert Greene: Well, I knew his music. When I was writing my 33 Strategies of War… sometimes, when I write my books, I like to have a bit of an aggressive energy, particularly when I was writing the war book. Sometimes, I just would wake up and it wasn’t there. 50 was one of the few hip-hop artists that I would put [his music] on and it put me in the kind of war-like mood. XXLMag.com: Any songs in particular? Robert Greene: Well, there were things like “Position of Power” and “My Toy Soldier,” and “Hustler’s Ambition.” I had Power of the Dollar, somebody had passed it to me secretly, and there were some songs I really liked. I don’t have it in front of me, but I had the hard stuff. And the one where he’s really dissing Ja Rule… XXLMag.com: “Back Down.” Robert Greene: Yeah, that’s the kind of stuff I like—the nasty stuff. So, I knew his music that way. Then, before I met him, when I knew the meeting was coming, I got a copy of From Pieces to Weight and devoured that. I think it’s a great book; I found it inspiring… When you first meet him, you’re kind of expecting that “gangsta,” intimidating presence, and I think he uses that to an effect. He knows that most people, particularly White guys like myself, when we first meet him we’re expecting that, and he uses that to his advantage, because it’s very disarming when you realize that he’s not. So my first impressions were, at first, he’s really nice and charming. He’s not like all ego-ridden. He looks you in the eye when he talks to you. XXLMag.com: Earlier you said when you guys first started talking that he spoke to you about the Game situation. Was he looking for advice on that? Robert Greene: I don’t think he was looking for “advice,” per se. Because, who am I to give him advice? But, maybe he was. We talked about it, for sure. To be honest with you, I wasn’t too up on the situation. I knew that there was a beef going on, but what was behind it? How did it start? I really didn’t know. So, talking about it then, what I would’ve said knowing what I know now about the whole thing, it would’ve been different. So I don’t know if my “advice” was particularly insightful at that time. That’s when I thought he was a very crafty person. He was really strategizing in a hardcore way, about how to make this guy go away. Not in the Mafia sense, but how to end [the problem], so it doesn’t turn into this mutually destructive war… I was impressed about how he was weighing certain options and not just going with raw emotion, because you’d expect someone with the persona that he projects—which really isn’t who he is—that he would be looking for something kind of ultra-aggressive. That’s the entertainment part of 50. The real 50 is much more strategic. XXLMag.com: In order to write The 50th Law, you trailed 50 for nearly six months straight. Do any memories from that time stand out in your mind as being exemplary of his character? Robert Greene: I remember we would talk about how he had learned to adapt to the business world. A lot of the book, at first, and even as it came out, was about him as a hustler on the streets and how that translated into working in corporate America… He said that he was always learning on the job. He noticed that Lloyd Banks, whenever he would be in a meeting, would be kind of surly, and didn’t want to talk to anyone. But because of that, people would always be trying to please him, and giving him attention, thinking he was upset and they needed to win him over somehow—but that’s just his personality. 50 noticed that he needed to talk less in these meetings, and act a little bit like he wasn’t totally happy, and then people would work harder to please him—a little psychological ploy. Then we went into a meeting and I saw him do exactly that. [Laughs] This group of four or five very conservative White people from the Midwest. He did a little seduction number on them, making them feel like he wasn’t totally happy with what they were offering, and it worked like a charm, just as he told me it would. XXLMag.com: In the book, you talk about how the infamous throwing-the-plasma-TV-out-the-window incident, in response to his “Follow My Lead” video prematurely leaking online back in August of 2007, was staged, and how that showed his tactfulness, in a way. Robert Greene: That was an amazing thing to watch, because I got to see how he handles a crisis, and how calm he was compared to everybody else, who were like chickens with their heads cut off. [Laughs] He came up with this kind of weird, made-up problem of him getting angry, and the television screen and all that, which I thought was really quite smart. And then, the next day, the management team at Violator had a meeting about this, which I attended, and they were really not happy with what he’d done, because their whole method of handling it was to suppress the video, and he had done the opposite. So there was this confrontation—not angry or anything. They were telling him, “You just can’t do that kind of thing,” and he was telling them, “No, the story is already out there. I’m not going to, like, stop something that’s already out there. You have to make a story out of it.” I thought it was really indicative of how he operates. XXLMag.com: Another side of 50’s personality is that he seems to fully embrace this “bad guy” role that he’s been put into. How do you think that helps him as an artist? Robert Greene: Well, it helps him, but it [also] hurts him, and that’s a real strategic bind that he’s in. It’s the entertainment character that he created, and it’s kind of a cartoon character, which he’s done all on purpose. He knows that he can’t be too subtle when you’re a celebrity like that. People want a good guy, a bad guy… You can’t be a mix, or they get confused. So he plays it up, particularly in those very public beefs that he seems to always choose. But then, on the other hand, you start getting older and you can’t keep doing that forever… Younger people come up. And it’s also just not the space that he’s in right now. He’s in this very comfortable world. So you can’t keep doing it forever. You get stale and people will grow bored with it. He’s trying to figure out how to keep that. XXLMag.com: You think so? Robert Greene: You know, the music sells when it’s more aggressive. He knows that. The ballads and the soft stuff, although I think is good and he likes it, just doesn’t have what people seem to be looking for. So he knows his audience, he knows what people want, and he’ll play that up, but at the same time, he has to figure out a way out of that. He has to figure out how in five-to-ten years he’s going to morph into this interesting business mogul. He just can’t keep doing it… He’s really hyper aware of how it works, how he can use that aggressive edge, and how if it can’t how he has to adapt it. Unlike a lot of rappers, who becomes sort of prisoners of their image, he’s thinking about it. He’s trying to solve it some way. —Matt Barone Source Follow Me @Twitter.com/ChasinMoPaper

Timbaland Says He's Done With Hip Hop, Claims Only Jay-Z, Lil Wayne & Kanye West Are Acceptable & His Audience Watches 'Desperate Housewives'

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on December 11, 2009 at 5:31pm

Video After The Jump MTV Reports Timbaland told MTV News that if he makes another Shock Value LP, he'll give it away. "If this album does as semi-well as the last one, I'm done," Timbaland said. "I'm not going through the stress no more. I will do it for my fans and give it away for free."
The super producer says he's tired of the politics and the way the music biz is going and he's losing his desire to try to sell albums. Of course, he's still in the midst of doing exactly that with Shock Value II, which overall is more slanted toward pop than hip-hop, with contributions from the likes of Justin Timberlake, Katy Perry and Miley Cyrus (although Brandy does make her rapping debut on the LP). That's for a reason, he said. "After my last album, I know where my bread and butter is at," Tim explained. "I know 75 percent [of the people who buy my album] are women who love Timbaland and most are the women who watch 'Desperate Housewives' and all those others. I did this research. It's the women who watch 'Sex and the City,' 'Desperate Housewives' — all the real go-to-the-bar women like Timbaland, and mostly European women. It lets me know that my fanbase is mostly women and they are from all cultures. So it's not a person who loves mostly hip-hop. It's a person who loves everything besides hip-hop." Don't get him wrong, Timbaland still loves hip-hop — he's still DJ Timmy Tim at heart. But he's not inspired by much from the genre these days and it's reflected on the LP. "I was done with hip-hop a long time ago," he said. "Once my generation left, I left. I do it, but there's nobody from my generation besides Jay who's doing it. I look at Lil Wayne as being from my generation. Some people are still acceptable. Kanye is acceptable from my generation. "It's just not the same. By it not being the same, I kind of fade to black. I did music [on this album] that fits where I was going to in my age bracket. 'What does Tim listen to in his car all the time?' I love '80s music. So how do I infuse '80s with modern-day music? You Timbo the King, you gotta figure it out. I figured it out a couple of years ago with Nelly [Furtado] and Justin and myself. We had a tremendous run. I think it was good for me to do it that, because some people would say 'Tim is cold.' The same people who smile in my face would be the same ones to talk behind my back. But I got this run, I'm not gonna stop until I wanna stop." Follow Me @Twitter.com/ChasinMoPaper

P.Diddy The World's Most Unsuccessful Drug Dealer. Puffy Speaks On His Brief Time In The Drug Game.

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on December 11, 2009 at 4:30pm

HipHopWired Reports For Diddy it may have been all about the Benjamins but it wasn't by any means necessary. In his interview with Playboy, he revealed how almost getting popped made him reconsider his “Frank White” and King Of New York dreams. "Some of my friends were selling drugs in the Maryland and (Washington) D.C. area. I remember them having all this jewelry and new BMWs. I was eating ramen noodles, stealing from the 7-Eleven to get some food. I thought, 'I need to get some money like y'all have.' So I go out on the block, the strip where they're selling drugs, and my man says, 'OK, I'm going to give you this. You wait there. They'll come up to you.' I'm out there five minutes when three cop cars pull up and officers jump out and start chasing me. I ran and got away. We reconvene in the same place two hours later. This time it's dark, and all of a sudden a van pulls up. Cops jump out and start chasing me again. There's a helicopter overhead with a light following me through the woods.” Puff then continued with the story where he finally met up with his boys hours later and started to really reconsider his choice. “I wanted to go home, but I didn't know how to punk out and tell them. The cops were outside, and we heard them coming up the stairs (but) they were responding to a couple having an argument below us... I turned unto a scared white Harvard (University) student. God was sending me signals. I told my friends, 'Thanks, y'all, but no thanks. This game is not for me.' I walked out that door, and I ain't been around nobody with no drugs. I don't want to see no drugs. I'm probably the shortest-duration drug dealer in history. That's why you never heard me talk about it in my rhymes." Follow Me @Twitter.com/ChasinMoPaper

Video After The Jump TMZ Reports Monica Danger -- the VH1 reality star who was placed on a psychiatric hold earlier this month -- claims her mental breakdown was the result of postpartum depression ... but her head-shaving antics had nothing to do with illness. The "For the Love of Ray J" star claims she buzzed her 'do because she was "inspired by Britney" and just "didn't want hair anymore." As for the psychiatric hold, Danger claims she was taken in on a 5350 hold -- not a 5150 -- which, according to her, means "they keep you longer and they give you more drugs." Though Danger also says she's not taking any medication.

Oh Lawd He Did What? Hollywood Madam Michelle Braun Claims Tiger Woods Coughed Up $60K For 3-Ways With Hookers.His Lawyers Block Attempts To Publish His Nude Pics.

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on December 11, 2009 at 8:24am

Michelle Braun, the Hollywood madam, claims Tiger Woods paid thousands to spend time with high-priced hookers. NY Daily News Reports Tiger Woods was into threesomes and shelled out more than $60,000 to cat around with high-priced hookers, a Hollywood madam claimed Thursday. "One of his favorites was Loredana Jolie," Michelle Braun told the Daily News, describing the gorgeous blond as a Playboy model from Sicily who's been living in New York since age 14. "She's a stunning girl," said Braun. "He went out with her four or five times. She took part in group sex. They met up in 2006 or early 2007. I'd say he paid $15,000 for her." Woods "had a pretty big appetite for women" added Braun, as the world famous athlete's list of extramarital "transgressions" continues to grow. "He was rarely with just one girl. He usually wanted more. He liked three-ways," she said. Braun, whose escort service was closed due to legal troubles, said two of Woods' other playmates were porn star Holly Sampson and onetime trashy lingerie model Jamie Jungers.

Jamie Jungers Braun contended Woods would drop $30,000 to $40,000 a weekend for his liaisons and that he met up with the women in cities where he was playing tournaments. "He would request the college-cutie, girls-next-door look," she said. Braun also said the girls marveled at the golf champ's endurance. "He could go for days," she said. "He'd pay a flat rate for an evening, but an evening would usually be extended. The girls would talk about his stamina." The girls all thought Woods was a "real gentleman" and a good lover, Braun added. "He'd shower them with gifts, he was very polite and he was amazing in bed ... very sensual and well-endowed."

Holly Sampson Woods and most of her celebrity clients always were "smart enough" to pay in cash, Braun said, adding the golf star, in particular, "liked to communicate by text message." "Most of the girls understood it was a business relationship," Braun said. "I've never known a girl to fall in love with a client. I've seen them develop relationships with men who were available. But Tiger made it clear this was a good time and his wife would always be in the picture." Jungers, 26, who has said she was in love with Woods, also is going public about their hot-sheets affair, boasting that their secret sex life was GRREAT! Jungers, who is scheduled to appear this morning on NBC's "Today" show on "Dateline" tonight, refutes the claim that Woods paid her for sex, swearing, "I have nothing to do with prostitution." "I mean, we had - I felt like we had a lot - or I had a lot of feelings toward him," Jungers admits. "It wasn't just a sexual situation . . . I loved him." While she says she feels sorry for his wife, Elin Nordengren, and their children, she has no misgivings about bedding Woods. "I'm certainly not gonna say that it was wrong," Jungers mused. "I don't believe I owe her an apology." She insists she hopes Woods and his wife work things out. If not, she says, "There'll always be a place in my heart for Tiger." As Jungers' confession was set to roll, Woods' lawyers went to court Thursday to block British papers from publishing photographs of his "naked parts" or sexcapades. His London lawyers said the order issued by the High Court was in no way an admission that X-rated snaps even exist. "Our client is not aware of any images," the lawyers said in a letter obtained by the gossip Web site TMZ. "And in any event he would not have consented to any such photographs being taken." It's unclear if Tiger's camp is trying to obtain a similar order against Playgirl, which said this week it has pictures that purportedly show the golfer in the buff. In other developments: A new mistress - one not previously identified - has hired celebrity lawyer Gloria Allred, Radaronline reported. Allred already represents Rachel Uchitel, 34, the New York party girl who was first linked to Woods and has denied sleeping with him. Golf great Jack Nicklaus predicted the scandal would die down soon. "Our public is pretty forgiving at times," he said, calling Woods a "great athlete." Though "devastated" by the breadth of Tiger's cheating, Nordegren isn't packing her bags and fleeing with their two kids, People magazine reported. Follow Me @Twitter.com/ChasinMoPaper

Mary J Blige, Jill Scott , Erykah Badu, Corinne Bailey Rae Join Incredible Lineup For 2010 Lillith Fair Tour

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on December 10, 2009 at 5:00pm

MTV Reports After a decade-long hiatus, the female-centric Lilith Fair festival will storm back in summer 2010 with a lineup that features a mix of festival veterans and new stars, including founder Sarah McLachlan, Mary J. Blige, Ke$ha, Erykah Badu, Jill Scott, Colbie Caillat and Corinne Bailey Rae. McLachlan and Badu, who were on the lineup the first time around, will be joined by fellow vets Emmylou Harris, the Indigo Girls and Tegan and Sara. Among the other acts slated to perform are country star Miranda Lambert, Janelle Monáe, Metric, A Fine Frenzy, Chairlift, Jill Scott, Sugarland, Brandi Carlile, Butterfly Boucher, Ingrid Michaelson, Grace Potter and the Nocturnals, Katzenjammer, the Submarines, Tara MacLean, Sara Bareilles, Chantal Kreviazuk, Serena Ryder, Susan Justice, Ima, Donna Delory, Ash Koley, Ann Atomic, Jennifer Knapp, Jill Hennesy, Meghan Smith, Vedera, Vita Chambers, Nneka, Ximena Sarinana, Zee Avi and the Weepies. Badu, who toured with Lilith in 1998, said in a press release announcing the roster that she was psyched to have another go-round. "Magic happens when you bring this many artistic women together," she said. "I'll never forget the frequency and energy that I felt that first time I performed at Lilith. Between the sistas on stage and those in the audience, it was powerful!" Tegan of Tegan and Sara recalled playing the smallest side stage on one of the last Lilith Fair shows more than 10 years ago in Edmonton, Alberta, and how despite challenging conditions, the gig was a formative experience. "We only played one show, and it was on the smallest stage, in the rain, to nearly no one," she said. "And yet, for the past 10 years, it continues to come up in almost every interview and is something we honestly look back on as a very important event in our career. The impact of Lilith Fair was felt all over the world, and its significance still resonates with women and the music industry itself 10 years later. We are proud to be a part of it again and are truly excited that Lilith is back." Tour co-founder Terry McBride — who also manages or releases albums by a number of the acts on the lineup through his Nettwerk label — added: "The 2010 Lilith Tour isn't just a celebration of women in music, but a celebration of diverse female voices across all genres. The original Lilith Fair broke down boundaries, and the new tour promises to do the same, with a mix of contemporary and classic, established and up-and-coming artists from the worlds of pop, rock, urban, country and more." From 1997 to 1999, Lilith Fair toured around the world with a lineup of some of the biggest female and woman-fronted acts of the day, including Christina Aguilera, the Dixie Chicks, Missy Elliot, Tracy Chapman, Fiona Apple, Nelly Furtado, Beth Orton, Sinead O'Connor, Bonnie Raitt, Lauryn Hill, Liz Phair, Mya, Martina McBride, Jewel, Dido, Queen Latifah and the Pretenders. Dates and additional artists for the 2010 Lilith Fair will be announced in the coming months. For More Info Log Onto The Lilith Fair Website Follow Me @Twitter.com/ChasinMoPaper

Master P Keeps It 100 "You Will Most Likely Read About Celebs 'Making It Rain' Than Giving Back To The Community"

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on December 10, 2009 at 4:18pm

AllHipHop Reports P.Miller made a recent stop at Southern California’s Save Our Kids event to speak to teens and parents on the importance of community involvement. As one of the most successful moguls in Hip-Hop history, Miller is often sought after by organizations for donations. While the former No Limit CEO is happy to honor those requests, he challenged those in attendance to be proactive in making a clear path for others to become inspired and follow. “Why [do] so many rappers and pro-athletes make it out and don’t come back to help the hood?” P. Miller questioned. “We have to take care of the hood ourselves and stop waiting for some celebrity or pro-athlete to come back and save us. I made it out. If one of you make it out, it’s important for you not to forget where you came from and always come back to help the next generation. That’s the reason that I’m here today because I really care about inspiring the next generation.” One of Miller’s notable philanthropic efforts is his work with onemilliongifts.org. The organization aims to deliver 1 million gifts to families across the nation in need by the end of the year. Each person, Miller explained, could make a huge communal impact by pooling their resources for good causes. “You will most likely read about celebrities ‘making it rain in the club’ than giving back to the community,” he admitted. “If we really want to take care of the hood, we’ve got to start with us. If each one of us, one person, gave at least one dollar to our community we could make a real difference… together, starting in our own community. We could save churches and organizations that help the community. We could also educate our kids, feed the homeless, and take care of the elderly, if we work together.” Last month, Miller teamed with Mark Wahlberg to supply thousands of Thanksgiving dinners to needy families in Los Angeles.

Former Football Great, Herschel Walker To Try His Hand At Mixed Martial Arts, Will Fight In January

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on December 10, 2009 at 3:46pm

BallerStatus Former NFL great, Herschel Walker, announced that he planned to enter the world of mixed martial arts (MMA) months ago. Now, he's gearing up for his first, official fight. Walker signed a contract MMA promotion Strikeforce in September to compete in their heavyweight division, and is now set to enter the octagon for his first fight on January 30th. "I wouldn't have gotten in to this if I didn't know I could do it," Walker told the San Jose's Mercury News. "I can fight." Walker is fifth-degree black belt in tae kwon do, and has been training at the American Kickboxing Academy in San Jose, California for quite some time. The NFL Hall of Famer says he's in great shape, and could even play in the NFL today if he wanted to. While he doesn't need the money or publicity, Walker says he does need the competition. He's actually donating the money he earns from the upcoming fight to charity. "I could still play football today," Walker said. "Now I couldn't take every snap. I've slowed down a little bit, but I'm still faster than 80 percent of the guys in the league. That's why I know I can step in to the cage." If you doubt Walker's skills, his trainer says you should think again. "I understand why people would hear that he wants to fight and say, 'Yeah, right,' " said American Kickboxing Academy head trainer Javier Mendez told the paper. "But he's not a 47-year-old man. He's got the body of a 20-year-old. He's absolutely ripped. He's not normal. He's one of a kind." The upcoming match is set to air on Showtime. However, his opponent has yet to be announced. Stay tuned.
