$$ Child Support $$

Child support is so common now in the States, it's like a past time. It's the best the law can do to hold guys (in most cases) accountable for their children. In some cases, it seems unfair. I've always been fascinated by the whole child support thing because we all know that money isn't solely going to the kids, a lil' sumn sumn is going to the mama's packet (at least in my opinion). Now when it comes to celebs, the amounts they pay are so ridiculously large I am wondering how they spend that much on just kids. Say, you even say it goes to school fees can't the dad just pay that separately. Anyhue, thought I'd just share with you some amounts that are being paid out there in Hollyweird.
 Eddie Murphy pays Mel B $51,000/month
 Linda Evangelista is in court requesting $46,000/month from her baby daddy (Salma Hayek's husband) Charlie Sheen pays each of his baby mamas (Denise Richards and Brooke Mueller $55,000/month. Total of $110k
Melissa Etheridge pays her former wife $23,000/month and even then she is requesting more
Usher pays Tameka child support but is demanding an increase because she feels his income has increased substantially since their divorce. (WHat has that got to do with the kids??)
When Britney got a divorce, she had to pay Kevin Federline $20,000/month
Russell Simmons pays Kimora Lee $40,000/month P Diddy pays about $250,000/yr total to all 3 of his baby mamas
Mel Gibson paid his baby mama $750,000, still pays for the house and will continue to pay additional support for the kid
Tiger Woods ex wife Elin cashed out big with $100mill, I can only imagine what he has to pay in child support for 2 kids.
The head scratcher of them all is NY Jets QB, Antonio Cromartie. This fool has 10 kids and twins on the way by 8 different women. Now he has a $35million contract but in 2008 he had to request a $500k advance so he could pay off outstanding child support payment. I can't even imagine what those are.

Some of these amounts are some people's salaries for the year! What do you think? Is this okay because they are celebs or you think it's too much?

And this is what the world has become....

I got this as a broadcast and almost deleted it but my jaw dropped. This little girl wasn't just copying what she saw on TV. It's like she knew what she was doing and that was worrisome. Let's not even talk about the boy or the people cheering them on OR whoever the retard was filming it. Sigh.


Ok I can't get the video posted so just click on this link - Here ya go

Tid Bits

I am currently watching Basketball Wives: LA and I don't even know what I think, all these hoodrats with tattoos everywhere, speaking ebonics, fighting in public, wearing tight ass yeast infection pants with fat bulging out everywhere. I can't.

The VMAs were actually okay last night. I can't get over how Beyonce announced her pregnancy though. She stopped on the red carpet, said "I have a surprise" and put her hand over her belly. I dunno, even for Beyonce that was...weird. Then again after her performance she unbuttoned her jacket and rubbed her belly. I thought it was cute but it was still all so bizarre. Congratulations to her and Jay though.

Adele is awesome. She could easily have been cast aside. She isn't manufactured and isn't skinny. But she sings from her heart and it's genuine and therefore relatable. "21" is the stuff great music is made of and I totally expect her to get album of the year at the grammys. Can't wait to see her next month.

Cowboys and Aliens cost $163 million to make and opened with $36.4million. somebody say ouch. Thank God for international markets.

Justin Timberlake and Jennifer Aniston. What do they have in common? They both can't carry a movie. These two are so hyped and everyone knows I love me some Justin but check all the movies they've done (Aniston does have a few years on Justin) but they don't do so well UNLESS it's an ensemble movie. Read: Justin in Social Network and Aniston in Horrible Bosses.

Everyone has like brutally SLAMMED Carter IV. I have the album but yet to listen to it.

The Hunger games are currently rocking my world. Great Book. I am on Book 2

Kim Kardashian is just as self absorbed as her mom. Kim Kardashian's husband seems like a douche. Oyibo pple dating are weird. Like how you don't meet the parents TILL you are engaged. How the hell did Kris not know that Kim was married? Is google dead?

I have absolutely no desire to see The Help. Great book but I can't help but think it won't translate. I'll see it eventually.

Reality shows won't be the death of me.

Katy Perry is manufactured. Katy Perry has a record with Michael Jackson for the most #1 singles from an album. This bothers me. Now I know I am the girl who likes any kind of music, no matter how poppy but I dunno, it's Michael men. Still can't believe she was nominated for album of the year at the Grammys.

I think that's all the pop culture tidbits I got right now. Have a great week.

My current favorite songs

Just thought I'd share a few of the songs that I have been listening to a lot more than others.

The Band Perry - If I Die Young
This was love at first listen. I heard this song and had to have it. Sure it talks about death ( One of my favorite lines: A penny for my thoughts, oh no, I'll sell them for a dollar. They're worth so much more after I'm a goner and maybe then you'll hear the words I been singin'. Funny when you're dead how people start listenin'). I looked up the inspiration for the song and they say it was basically to encourage living every moment to the fullest cuz life is short.

No, my obsession with The Weeknd isn't over. I am still in lust with this album. I woke up one day and High for This was my favorite song. I put that thing on repeat and sun bathed in the goodness of this song...many times.



My love for bubblegum will never die. I mean, I am the girl who went for a BSB concert not too long ago. Britney Spears' "I wanna go" always puts a smile on my face and oh yez, I whistle along.



My latest Brit import Ellie Goulding. I love her album and I like her voice, she sounds so animated. My favorite song on the album is The Writer



She is not that well known but Yemi Alade has a song with Eldee "Fi mi Sile" that I really like and is always a good song to dance to



Please feel free to share your favorite songs.I can never have too many songs!
