A man once said “we’re never going to survive unless we get a little crazy.” Apparently Seal and Heidi Klum weren’t crazy enough for their marriage to last. After renewing their vows every year and donning some of the wildest costumes the world has ever seen, the handsome twosome are heading to splitsville.

According to TMZ, Heidi Hlum will cite irreconcilable differences when she files for divorce in Los Angeles sometime next week. We don’t know if the couple has a prenuptial agreement but Heidi did rake in upwards of $20 million in the past year.

We can honestly say we didn’t see this coming and are kind of sad.

We wonder if Seal tried to sing this song to Heidi at any point …  Read the rest of this entry »

Just when New York City denizens and visiting tourists thought they were going to kick it like ballers The 40/40 Club is shuttered by the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene. Insert record scratch here.

Based on Wednesday night’s lavish opening with an open bar featuring Ace of Spades Champagne and mountains of food from the new menu, it seemed as if The 40/40 Club was destined for nightlife greatness. Sadly, the club received a whopping 69 violation points for infractions including insufficient refrigeration (cold food heated above 41 degrees), inadequate personal cleanliness of food preparers and inappropriate contact with food that will not be further heated – a worker [sic] seen mixing salsa with his bare hands.

Have you ever watched a video of E.coli and other bacteria grow? We have. No nom nom.

We know Jay-Z is a business, man so this situation had to be cleared up quickly.

Ron Berkowitz, a rep for the club, tells TMZ the motor in one of the refrigerators blew just moments before the health inspector arrived … causing the temperature in the fridge to rise. Berkowtiz says the staff identified the problem immediately and had no intention of serving the food from that fridge. Berkowitz says the fridge was fixed by noon the next day and the club was permitted to re-open. He adds … the club lost no business as a result of the issue and their health code grade is currently pending review.

Case closed?

Today’s release of the film “Red Tails” may make history on several accounts. “Red Tails” is one of the first all Black action films made for wide release.

Sara Stokes formerly of “Making the Band,” and former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick’s sister, Ayanna Kilpatrick-Ferguson are also said to be cast members. However, we were shocked to see the Facebook update below from the show which is still being shopped around.

Hey Ladies! I realize the affect the many “Wive” reality shows has had on women and I totally respect your opinions. But, I assure you that my show “Motor City Wives” will represent an entirely different woman. For one “Deelishis” is no longer a part of our cast, let’s clear that up. We have carefully selecteda diverse group of women who are entrepreneurs, leaders and play dominating roles in their relationships and households … Valencia R Williams Creator of Motor City Wives

Well, that says it all.
