Lil Wayne signs $150 million record deal?

Lil Wayne might have 150 million new reasons to celebrate.

It’s been speculated that the rap star just signed a $150 million, 4-album deal to re-up with Cash Money Records.

While his label boss Bryan “Birdman” Williams wouldn’t confirm the official sum, he did tell MTV Monday that “it’s probably the biggest deal ever in urban music.”

“I’m blessed to even do that,” Birdman said of the rumored astronomical figure he paid to keep Wayne, who signed to Cash Money when he was just a kid. “Whatever my son want, he can get. It’s all his anyway, so it don’t really matter to me.”

Without Wayne, the Young Money/Cash Money empire doesn’t exist, Birdman added of the rapper’s central position.

Wayne himself referenced his long-standing relationship with the label on an episode of MTV’s “Hip Hop POV” a few weeks back.

“Everybody knows I came into the game at 11 years old with Cash Money Records, before we even had a major deal,” he said of his new contractual situation. “We signed a deal in I don’t remember when, and I been with Cash Money ever since. So, if you’re looking for integrity, I am the definition. If you’re looking for a person that’s gonna stay down, I am the definition. If you’re looking for loyalty, I am just that.”

Looks like the new deal comes at just the right time: Birdman recently told XXL magazine that Cash Money is headed to Hollywood.

He’s apparently looking to launch his Cash Money Films project with a movie starring his entire YMCMB squad, including Wayne, Drake, Nicki Minaj, Busta Rhymes and Limp Bizkit. The title of the forthcoming project is appropriately titled, “Rich Gang.”

World's Largest McDonald's Being Built for 2012 Olympic Games

The world's largest McDonald's is currently being built for the 2012 Olympic Summer games.
Located in London, the 32,292 square foot restaurant will open for six weeks during the summer games.
Over 2,000 temporary employees will man the restaurant as it's expected to serve more than 50,000 Big Macs and 18,000 orders of french fries. However, the world's largest MickyD's is already being critized by health experts.
McDonald’s Global Chief Brand Officer, Kevin Newell, says, “Most people when they talk about children’s well-being, they go immediately to the food, but…it’s also about education and activity – and the Olympics will set us up very nicely to launch a few things around children’s well-being.”

Woman Who Let Man She Met Online Rape Her Infant Daughter Gets 2 Life Terms!!!

A judge sentenced a Missouri woman to consecutive life prison terms for sexually assaulting her infant daughter along with a California man she met online. I like this sentence, hopefully they’ll send these two to the worst jails in the country. Click below to find out more.

Attorneys for 22-year-old Tessa Vanvlerah, of Ballwin, failed to persuade St. Louis County Circuit Judge Colleen Dolan to sentence their client Monday only to probation, because they argue that a psychological disorder is largely to blame for her crimes, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported.
Vanvlerah pleaded guilty in January to incest, statutory sodomy and statutory rape in the attacks against her daughter, who is 3 but who was 5 months old when the pair first attacked her. The woman who fostered and then adopted the girl said initially, the girl would scream when anyone bathed her or changed her diaper. She still has night terrors and asks at each bedtime to make sure nobody else comes into the home.
However, she said the girl is improving day by day and “is no longer Tessa’s plaything and she is no longer Tessa’s child.”
Vanvlerah was arrested in 2010 following the arrest of 49-year-old Kenneth Kyle, a California State University East Bay professor, on child pornography charges. Along with hundreds of child porn images on Kyle’s computers, investigators found information that led them to the St. Louis area, where Kyle had visited Vanvlerah four times in five months since meeting online. During those visits, prosecutors say the pair had sex with the girl and each other at various hotels.
Kyle pleaded guilty to a federal child sexual abuse charge and was sentenced in March to 37½ years in prison.
Forensic psychologist Dr. Brooke Kraushaar testified at Vanvlerah’s sentencing hearing that Vanvlerah’s dependent-personality disorder caused her to participate in Kyle’s sexual fantasies, even though she knew sex acts involving the baby were wrong.
Kraushaar, who was hired by defense lawyers Brent Labovitz and Kevin Whiteley, described Vanvlerah as “a passive offender.” She said Vanvlerah was so afraid of being rejected by others that she also allowed Kyle to choke, burn and urinate on her.
But assistant prosecutor Kathi Alizadeh disputed the diagnosis, pointing out that Vanvlerah exercised free will in electronic communications with another man. Vanvlerah carved her nickname for the man, “Lord Nikon,” into her skin at his request, the prosecutor said, but drew the line at one of his suggestions involving bestiality.

Wiz Khalifa Busted By The Cops For The Second Time In 2 Weeks!

North Carolina wasn’t very friendly to Wiz Khalifa last night…giving him his second run-in with cops in 10 days! I’m sure you can guess what it’s for!

The Forsyth County Sheriff’s Office in North Carolina tells us … the rapper was ticketed for possession of marijuana after his concert in Winston-Salem last night.
We’re told officers discovered 11.39 grams of of pot after searching the rapper and his tour bus.
Wiz was cited and released — and is required to appear in court at a later date.
As we previously reported, Wiz was caught with weed in Nashville on April 21 … after cops received complaints about marijuana smoke at a local Holiday Inn.

Tom Cruise takes the mic in 'Rock of Ages' trailer

Tom Cruise turns himself into a total rock star in the new clip for the anticipated “Rock of Ages” screen adaptation.

New Line Cinema released the second trailer for the uber-popular Broadway musical-turned-film on Monday.

In it, a long-haired Cruise - aka Stacee Jaxx - can be seen in full rock star swag, tattooed and at times wearing a fluffy fur, surrounded by scantily-dressed women.

He’s cavorting with similarly '80s-styled co-stars Alec Baldwin, Russell Brand, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Malin Akerman, Mary J. Blige, Julianne Hough, Diego Boneta and, last but not least, a monkey named "Hey, Man."
As fans of the musical would expect, the Adam Shankman-helmed vehicle is all about sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll, and as such, boasts a big-haired soundtrack of '80s rock anthems.
Among them?
Classics like Journey’s “Any Way You Want It,” Joan Jett’s “I Love Rock and Roll," Warrant’s “Heaven Isn’t Too Far Away" and Bon Jovi’s “Wanted Dead or Alive."

Boko Haram Creates More Fear, Threatens More Terrorists Attacks on Nigerian Media Houses – Punch Newspaper, Vanguard, Tribune & More

“Islamist sect Boko Haram last night released a video showing a smiling suicide bomber drive into the offices of ThisDay and blow himself up, an attack that killed at least three people and made journalists a new target of the extremist group.
The 18-minute video posted on YouTube includes new threats against journalists and major newspapers, as well as the Hausa language services of Voice of America and Radio France International. An unnamed male speaker also threatens new attacks against the Federal Government, saying security forces continue to hold the wives and children of its followers hostage.
The message, relayed in Hausa, was translated into english. It reads: “This is a message from the public awareness department of the Jamatu Ahlis sunnah lil daawati wal jihad, a group engaged in jihad in Nigeria.
“We wish to explain about the attack we carried out on Thisday Newspapers. Some of the reasons why we decided to attack some Media Houses, especially Thisday, is because the paper was used in dishonouring our prophet, Mohammad (SAW) during a beauty pageant in Kaduna in November 2002.
“At that time, some people who called themselves leaders of Muslims came out to say they have forgiven those who committed the offence.
“But based on our knowledge, we know that no one has the power to forgive anyone for an offence that God himself has given judgement, especially on an offence that has to do with dishonouring Prophet Muhammad (SAW).
“No one has the power to forgive this type of offence, and the judgement is for such persons to be killed.
“This lady Isioma Daniel that committed this crime, the judgement on her is to be killed at any opportunity; and the media house is also supposed to be driven out of existence whenever there is a chance to do so.
“We are just getting the opportunity to attack the media house, and we are hoping to continue these attacks until we drive them out of existence.
“It is our hope that Allah (SWT) will help his religion.
“We know that any genuine Muslim must have been deeply touched by the ThisDay incident.
“Thisday newspaper is also leading in helping the government in fighting us, alongside other media houses that we will mention soon.

Divorce not an option for Khloe Kardashian

“Khloe and Lamar” isn't canceled, as Khloe Kardashian's rep has told CNN, but the 27-year-old and her husband Lamar Odom are putting their reality TV gig on pause while they focus on Odom's basketball career.

Odom went from the L.A. Lakers to the Dallas Mavericks last December, but by April, he stepped away from the team following a mutual decision.
In the wake of those ups and downs, the couple wants to "prioritize a little," Khloe Kardashian tells People magazine. "We just wanted a little pause. Part of being married is knowing when your husband needs your support."

The couple will still appear on Kardashian's reality show with her family, "Keeping Up with the Kardashians," but taking a break from their own E! show means "there's less pressure on us," Kardashian says.
"I'm a modern girl, but you should put your husband first," she adds. "I like to think divorce is not an option."
For fans of "Khloe & Lamar," Kardashian has been stressing that the show isn't over yet.
"Lamar and I have just chosen to take a break this summer," she recently told "Entertainment Tonight." "I feel like we've been on a whirlwind and doing back-to-back shows. We just want to take a little time off for Lamar to be with family, kids, basketball, Olympics, you never know. We have a lot on our plate right now."
"We just want to be happy," added Odom, who said he hopes to be a part of the Olympic basketball team during this summer's games, and then go back to the NBA next season. "We'll take our time and we'll get back to it when it's time."

Girl Dies A Year After She Was Allegedly Used For Money rituals

This has been going around on BB. But I pay less attention to BB broadcasts these days. This got too much and almost everyone used her pic as their display picture. I am reporting this because it is quite touching, and who knows we might just be saving a girl’s life.  The last paragraph of the broadcast read thus; please i am appealing to all girls, to please be patient and be contented with whatever your parents or boyfriends can offer. Please tell every girl/lady you know you might just be saving a life. Click to read the story. But if you ask me, my appeal will be, please be contented with what your parents alone can give you. Any boyfriend might still use you for his own selfish interest.

She has been very ill for more than one year now. Reliable sources told us she was used for ritual by one of those rich men through sex. She hasn't menstruated for over a year. Whenever she coughs everybody runs away because her breath smells like shit. She grows lean and lean every day. After all d money, stress and time her parents wasted she died yesterday.

This thing you call "RUNS" is just a deadly game and you might not be lucky the next time you try. Please be warned! RIP ADETUTU

Finally, Microsoft Is Giving Us the Live-Action 'Halo' We've Been Waiting For

The long-rumored live-action film based on Microsoft’s wildly popular Halo franchise may be dead in the water (a point driven home by last month’s book excerpt detailing how the computer giant’s outrageous demands ultimately scared Hollywood off), but there is a new live-action Master Chief adventure in the works – and we’ve got details.
Microsoft’s gaming division is spending big to craft Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn, a series of short films set to promote the release of the gaming giant’s Halo 4 this fall. Sources from MS say the project represents the “largest investment” the company has made in live action to date.
Taking place over five weekly installments (which will debut at Machinima.com and Halo Waypoint), each 15-minute episode will build an elaborate story about how Halo’s iconic main character Master Chief inspired a young USNC cadet. That cadet eventually becomes the leader of the USNC Infinity spacecraft. Basically, Forward Unto Dawn will be a prequel series to set up events for the franchises’ fourth game, which releases on November 6th.
MS is keeping a tight lid on the talent involved with the new initiative – no word on cast or directors yet – but they plan to unveil more details at this year’s Comic-Con in July.
The web series has numerous objectives to meet. Microsoft wants Forward Unto Dawn to appeal to hardcore Halo fans so they’re hyped up for the latest installment (which finds series creators Bungie replaced by a new team of developers known as 343 Studios). It also wants to provide an entry point for new fans who may not have played the earlier games or followed the ancillary material (books, comics, etc.) but are interested in experiencing the title without having to track all of that stuff down.
Still, the biggest objective of all is to rekindle interest in a full-on live-action Halo feature film.
We’ll have to wait and see if that comes to pass, but Halo fans can rest assured that Microsoft is still well aware of the cinematic potential of the series. “I don't think anybody needs any reminding of (the potential)," 343’s director of franchise business management Matt McCloskey said. "Everyone keeps reminding us of that."

Watch: The New 'Dark Knight Rises' Trailer Hasn't Given Everything Yet

1 Comment

The Dark Knight Rises seemed to be under the microscope during its surprisingly open production, but it's been relatively quite during post production-- and we think that's just perfect. We're tired of movies that break fans with their endless marketing cycle, and we appreciate that we're about three months away from release and we don't have eight thousand different trailers and TV spots giving us every beat of the movie (if only the same could be said of the equally-anticipated Prometheus, whose latest trailers reek of spoilers).
Granted, that may change, but for now we think Warner Bros. are doing a commendable job of keeping TDKR on our collective radar (as if it could ever fall off of it), without spoiling everything, and this new trailer only reinforces that belief.
There's plenty of new material here, particularly an emphasis on Joseph Gordon-Levitt, though we hardly get any clarification of who he will be playing, and yet the movie still feels largely inaccessible; as though are still plenty of surprises in store come July 20^th. But what say you fans? Does the third trailer for The Dark Knight Rises prolong the tease of the conclusion to Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy? Or do you fear it gives away too much, too early?

Interview: D’Banj Man United Fan Discusses Having Rio Ferdinand as his Fan, David Beckham, Ryan Giggs & More

As a Manchester United fan, it marked the ultimate endorsement for Nigerian Afrobeat sensation D'Banj when Rio Ferdinand expressed his love for his debut UK single 'Oliver Twist' to his 2.6million Twitter followers.

With Red Devils midfielder Tom Cleverley also waxing lyrical about the infectious tune all over the twittersphere, D'Banj is determined to make all of his United heroes - including Sir Alex Ferguson - a fan of the song.
With his 'Oliver Twist' dance competition having already gone viral on YouTube, the Nigerian is hoping to see Rio and co. celebrating their goals to his tune - and has told Sky Sports he'll even nip down to the Old Trafford dressing room and teach the stars some moves.
D'Banj, who releases the single on 14th May having signed to Kanye West's G.O.O.D label following a fierce bidding war, took time out from recording in the States to regale us with his United-themed football firsts.

Manchester United

I live in Nigeria and I've always been a Man United fan. In Nigeria, football is our thing. On Saturdays and Sundays, there's no traffic, you see people sitting down, everyone is in their house, watching a Premiership match or a Championship match. My family are actually divided; we have Manchester United, which is me, then you have Arsenal fans and Chelsea fans. It's very interesting on match days, that's why every Saturday we're watching a game - either to support someone or to not support someone. Either way you're watching the match.
I was just saying a couple of weeks back, I was in the States and I saw a Tweet from Rio Ferdinand, saying he was a big fan. He's actually been to Nigeria and he said 'Oliver Twist', my single, was actually his favourite Afrobeat song. I was like, get on the phone to Sir Alex Ferguson, get me to that locker room and I'll perform it for him before he goes out for his next match. It was so inspiring, because it's my first single coming out, and for Rio Ferdinand to say that, I know that's like me getting the stamp of approval. Tom Cleverley also gave props to 'Oliver Twist' on Twitter. I know he's injured so a speedy recovery to him.
I would be honoured to have players do my 'Oliver Twist' dance. I would actually come to the locker room - any one - and actually do it with them. I know Sir Alex Ferguson could do it, he needs to just move, move his shoulders. You don't have to be a professional dancer, you can even do it with the ball. That's the mission - get the players doing that.

Enyimba FC

A lot of young players have grown up and been taken to the Premiership to play for different clubs from the local Nigerian teams. At home I support Enyimba FC who are from the Eastern side of Nigeria. They're good, loads of players from the past who have gotten into the Premiership or Championship have played at this club before. It's a very good starter club. They're getting huge now - huge support and backing. There's also Sunshine Stars FC, who are also very good. I'm not always in Nigeria, I've been on the road for a couple of years now, so I'm always on Sky Sports, catching up with my Premiership and my Championship.

David Beckham

When I was growing up, I just wanted to be like David Beckham. Not just for the football part of it but because of the way he was such a brand. When it comes to the football, I respect the likes of Ryan Giggs, who has been there for ages, and Paul Scholes. I'd been hearing the name Giggs when I was just 10 or 11, he's a veteran, and I'd like to have a picture with Paul Scholes. It would be like having a picture with a superhero. It takes a lot of experience, a lot of skills and a lot of patience for someone to be that way, and also loyalty. I feel people like them show that sport isn't just about one person and make you know that this is a team. And of course I can't not mention Wayne Rooney. Rooney plays like he's in a gladiator match, he's such an intelligent player.
In terms of Nigerian players, people like Nwankwo Kanu, Yakubu, these people came from the streets and made it. They've taken on the language barrier and not let anything hold them back. Today, they're being celebrated as the world's best, some are retired but some are still actively playing, like Victor Moses
