Drake Recalls Being An eBay Geek At 17 [Video]

You might say Drake is obsessed with the ladies these days, but back before he was a burgeoning superstar he was obsessed with something else you might be surprised by.

"When I was 17, I was heavy on eBay," Drake reveals during the next episode of MTV's new show "When I Was 17," which airs Saturday at 11 a.m. and also features Queen Latifah and Olympic softball player Jennie Finch. "I was a beast. I was like an eBay guru." It was a different time for Drake then; he wasn't the hottest rapper in the game busy with ladies tossing their undergarments his way.

Instead, he was a supporting actor on teen hit "Degrassi: The Next Generation" and living a life that was nearly as normal as any other kid. His online hobby, however, wasn't supported by his friends, who thought it was a bit strange.

"I used to call him up and be like, 'Yo, what are you doing?,' " childhood friend Niko explains dismissively with a puzzled face. "And he'd be like, 'Shopping on eBay.' "

According to the rapper, he was involved in a few scandals. He sold items on the online auction site just as often as he bought them. To hear Drake tell it, though, everything he pushed online wasn't always on the up and up. And as for his own purchases? Well, let's just say today they might be considered as crime too.

"Mostly it as just clothes, electronics, jerseys and velour suits," Drake says. "I look back now and it's all hideous"

Video Of 16 Year Old Miley Cyrus Grinding & Humping On 44 Year Old Man At Party Surfaces

Video After The Jump

She might have been playing the role of wholesome girl next door, Hanna Montana at the time, but it's clear Miley Cyrus had the dance moves of a grown woman.

Miley was at a wrap up party last summer in Georgia for the movie 'The Last Song' when she and 44 year old producer Adam Shankman hit the dance floor for some dirty dancing.

Shankman who is gay seemed to be really enjoying himself as Miley grinds her butt into his crotch.

Does it make it ok because Shankman is gay?

In my opinion no, because there should be a limit to the kind of contact an adult should have with what the law considers to be a child.

According to TMZ the people who shot the video were said to be offended by what they saw.

No wonder Miley is in such a hurry to push her career into the adult arena with her new video for "Can't Be Tamed" . Looks like the age of innocence for her was lost a while ago.

Gucci Mane Schedules Press Conference Immediately After Release At 12:01 AM To Address All Drama

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on May 11, 2010 at 3:18pm

(AllHipHop News) Rapper Gucci Mane will address the media tomorrow morning at 12:01 AM (May 11th) when he is released from the Fulton County Jail.

Representatives for the rapper confirmed with AllHipHop.com that the rapper will hold the press conference at the jail, as soon as he is freed.

Gucci will discuss a number of issues brought up while he was incarcerated over the past year, for violating his probation, by using cocaine and other drugs.

Last week, the rapper announced he had severed his ties with former manager Debra Antney and Mizay Ent as well as booking agency Hitt Afta Hitt and the company’s owner Johnnie Cabbell.

Both Antney and Cabbell are named in a number of lawsuits in multiple states, for allegedly booking Gucci Mane and taking deposits, even though the rapper was heading to jail to serve the one-year sentence.

Yesterday, Antney called out Cabbell in an interview with AllHipHop.com and distanced herself from Cabbell, while wishing Gucci Mane continued success.

“Johnnie Cabbell, I stood there with yo raggedy a**. I didn’t fall down,” Antney told AllHipHop.com. “I tried to back you. I tried keep it 100 with you. But now, you violated," she said. “You go online and you talk that s**t like you didn’t do nothin’. N***a, I don’t book shows. Money don’t come to me first. I’m not thirsty for money like that. People know when they call my phone I shut you down and tell em ‘no.’.”

Johnnie Cabbell denied all allegations against him in a statement released to AllHipHop.com last week and claimed he was still acting as the official booking agent for Gucci Mane and Nicki Minaj.

“While it is being widely reported that my booking agency Hitt Afta Hitt is no longer working with Gucci Mane, I have yet to receive any type of correspondence from Gucci, the label or anyone else that supports that,” Johnnie Cabbell told AllHipHop.com in a statement today (May 5th). “I have known and worked with Gucci for over a decade. I have seen his career grow from being a local phenomenon into a household name and I feel like I helped play a minor role in his success.”

Cypress Hill Cancels

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on May 11, 2010 at 3:00pm

Rap veterans CYPRESS HILL have cancelled an upcoming concert in Arizona in protest of a new state immigration law.

Arizona lawmakers recently passed the SB1070 immigration bill, allowing officials to detain anyone they suspect to be an illegal alien.

The new ruling has infuriated a string of stars including Black Eyed Peas frontman will.i.am, and Cypress Hill have pledged their support to immigrants by scrapping their planned gig in Tucson on 21 May (10).

Explaining the move in a statement, the California-based Latin group says, "This decision was made in an effort to show support and solidarity with those, undocumented and otherwise, being directly affected by this unconstitutional law. Cypress Hill recognizes those living in the struggle for their basic civil rights."

Madness: Professional Alligator Wrestler Almost Loses Arm In Attack [Video]

Video After The Jump

Who knew there were people in America that still wrestled alligators as a living?

Jeff Quattrocchi, better known as 'The Swampmaster' is one very lucky man. During one of his recent shows he made a mistake and his arm got caught in the jaws of an angry 8 foot gator.

He kept his cool as the gator's jaws applied 2000 pounds of pressure or the equivalent of a small truck on his arm. Somehow he was able to free himself.

36 staples and 23 stitches later Jeff was able to laugh about the whole thing.

"Well you gotta be three things to be a professional alligator wrestler. You gotta be pretty big, pretty strong and really stupid," he said laughing.

Bow Wow Speaks On The Races Of Women He Prefers & Dating Rules "I've Never Paid A Girl's Bills, I've Never Been A Trick"

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on May 11, 2010 at 12:00pm

The newest addition to the Cash Money family, Bow Wow had an in depth interview with Ozone Magazine recently.

Seems he wants to once and for all shed the 'Lil Bow Wow' image and show his fans he's indeed getting his grown man on.

Check out an excerpt from the interview where he talks about his love life.

Do you have a preference as far as different races of women?

I love them all. I don’t discriminate. I love white women, black women, light skinned black women, Oriental women, Japanese, I love them all. I’ve had my share of just about all races so I never discriminate. I just love women. That’s my only weakness. That’s the only thing that could ever distract me from anything is a woman. I love all women. Women are my only weakness. It’s like kryptonite is to Superman. If a woman comes around me it could just throw my shit all off, in a good way. Like, if she’s in the studio I might not get any work done.

Have you ever paid a woman for sex, directly or indirectly? What’s your opinion on breaking females off? Do you pay their rent or car notes?

I’ve never in my life paid a girl’s bills or rent. I’ve never been a trick. Never. I think that’s terrible. If you’ve got to do that, that means you’re lacking and slacking in your conversation skills or you’re not confident with yourself. Paying for sex is cheating. You get no respect from me if you do that. But if it’s your girl and you’ve established that she’s your woman and she holds you down, that’s a different thing. You trick off on your woman because you want to make sure she’s lookin’ fly, but other than that, the closest thing I’ll ever get to trickin’ is throwing ones at the strip club. Don’t ask me to pay your phone bill or nothin’ like that unless you’re my woman

Kelis Shrugs Off 'Swagger Jacking' From Lady Gaga & Rihanna

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on May 11, 2010 at 10:30am

Rihanna and Lady Gaga have taken the fashion world by storm with their bold sense of style, but before them was Kelis. While the “Bossy” singer’s influence on today’s female pop stars remains a hot topic of conversation, Kelis is sounding off to Rap-Up.com about her impact on music’s leading ladies.

When asked whether she had heard the Internet chatter comparing her style to that of Rihanna and Lady Gaga’s, Kelis responded, “Yeah. I tried not to see, but it’s noticeable.”

Although it may ruffle her fans’ feathers, the “Acapella” songstress says she’s flattered by the comparisons and attributes the similarities to her peers’ ages. “They’re really young. What else are they supposed to do?”

Kelis explains that this is not the first time an artist has been accused of “swagger jacking.” Borrowing fashion and recycling trends has occurred many times before her. “I’ve been around for a long time and that’s what artists do; we take from each other and we recycle,” she states. “And quite frankly, it may not even be them. It might be stylists that have been around as long as I have and are like, ‘Hey, let’s recycle this on these younger artists.’”

But she shrugs off the controversy. “I’m not offended by it. I don’t really have much feeling about it, honestly. It just keeps me on my toes and allows me to continue moving forward, so it’s cool. I really don’t see it as a bad thing. I guess it means I’m on the right track.”

While she has no beef with her fellow fashionistas, you won’t find her listening to their music on her iPod. “I can’t say that I do. I’m familiar with it, like I know it. I don’t live in a hole. If I’m at a party and they play it, I enjoy it. I get it.”

Kelis’ new album Flesh Tone arrives in the U.K. on May 17 and July 6 in the U.S.

As Playboy Playmate Tries To Stop Vivid From Selling Sex Tape, Documents Reveal She Tried To Sell Tapes With Multiple Partners

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on May 11, 2010 at 8:57am

As ex Playboy Bunny Kendra Wilkinson scrambles to stop Vivid Entertainment from distributing a sex tape she made when she was 18. RadarOnline is reporting the reality star actually tried to sell tapes of herself back in 2008.

The tapes she was peddling reportedly included multiple partners. Kendra hired an L.A. law firm to represent her in selling the tapes, but the sell never happened.

Now she is desperately trying to stop Vivid from releasing a tape it obtained. The company says they will release it whether Kendra agrees to it or not. They expect it to be their biggest selling celebrity tape ever.

Complicating matters even further for Kendra is her recent marriage to Philadelphia Eagles player Hank Baskett. The two have a young song together.

She's worried the tape could damage their marriage. She is threatening to sue if the tape is released and according to RadarOnline she might be able to win big.

“She has the right to change her mind and say she doesn’t want them sold now,” one source familiar with the situation told RadarOnline.com. “And if her wishes aren’t honored, she’ll have a great lawsuit.”

Lady Gaga Babbles About Dying At Concert In Sweden "I Know Alcohol Will Kill Me One Day, I'll Sleep When I'm Dead" [Video]

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on May 11, 2010 at 8:00am

Video After The Jump

Lady Gaga's non stop touring appears to be getting to the superstar. She's literally covering the globe on her never ending 'Monsters Ball Tour.'

Even some of her superstar fans like Janet Jackson have expressed concern that Gaga is driving her body beyond it's breaking point.

"She works so hard and I told her I think she needs to slow down just a little bit, take some time out for herself," Jackson said recently

During a show in Sweden on May 5, the 'Bad Romance' singer started babbling about dying. It begins at the 1:38 mark of the video below.

"You know when people say 'Lady Gaga's really tired she needs to take a break,' I just think about all those times I sang in bars when nobody was singing my lyrics. I'll sleep when I'm dead, okay?"

The crowd seems to enjoy hearing this as the applause grows louder.

Gaga continues to ramble on about dying at the 6:30 mark.

"I know that I work really hard, and I run myself into the ground and I also know that alcohol will kill me one day. But I would rather not die on vacation, I'd rather die onstage with all my fans," .

It would be easy to chalk her rants up as nothing more than her putting on a good show. But we've already seen the footage of her looking like a zombie, lying on her back unable to get up at a recent show in New Zealand.

It's crazy what some artists will do to please their fans.

Ne-Yo Pens 1st Movie Script With Accompanying Album

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on May 11, 2010 at 6:34am

R&B superstar Ne-Yo has penned his first screenplay with an album to accompany it.

He told UK's Daily Star he's working on getting the film picked up by a major studio

“I developed a script and I’m in the process of getting a Hollywood studio to turn it into a movie," he said.

Fans of Ne-Yo should not be surprised by this new development. In an interview with MTV from earlier this year he expressed an interest in acting, saying he wanted to be "the black Tom Cruise".

Ne-Yo will be the star of his film, explaining “The underlying question is about your moral fiber. Is love, money and fame more important to you?

“The movie is really me and my friends answering that question."

While the movie is still in the developmental stage and probably won't see the big screen this year, his new not yet titled album will hit stores in September.

“My new album is a series of songs inspired by the script that I wrote, but it’s not a musical.”

T.I. To Appear On Larry King To Talk About His 9 Months In Prison On Weapons Charges

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on May 11, 2010 at 6:30am

T.I. will appear on Thursday's "Larry King Live," airing at 9 p.m. ET, to talk with the CNN host about the nine months he spent in prison on federal weapons charges, among other topics.

The rapper was sentenced to one year and one day of prison last year following his arrest in October 2007 for attempting to illegally purchase firearms. The rapper was subsequently released to a halfway house in December to serve out the remainder of his sentence before his ultimate release at the end of March.

Since finishing his sentence, Tip has filmed and released a music video for his appropriately titled new track "I'm Back," the first single from his forthcoming King Uncaged LP, set for release in August.

"I want to maintain the level of success I've been fortunate enough to do, over and over again, over the years," the rapper said of his upcoming album in a recent interview. "This album is different in many ways. I think that Paper Trail was a lot more about thoughts; this is more about feelings. This is significantly more aggressive, or at least at this period in production. Who knows? I can do 10 love songs tomorrow and change the direction. At this point, right now, it's going hard. It's going hard like classic T.I."

Speaking with MTV News last month, The-Dream agreed with Tip's assessment of the developing record. "Tip is in the zone, man," he said. "Right now, he's rapping like he's in space. Not a place we don't know — it's in the same area — but his vibe is just wider now."
