DJ AM Died Today... RIP
Dj AM that just escaped death a couple of months back in SC, has died. As of right now they don't know the cause of death, but this seems like a plot out of Final Destination.
According to TMZ
"Sources tell TMZ prescription pill bottles were found near DJ AM's body this afternoon.
We're told his body was found at around 5 PM at his apartment in New York City -- he was shirtless and wearing sweatpants.
UPDATE 8:10 PM ET: Sources say a pipe commonly used to smoke drugs was also found inside the bedroom.
UPDATE 7:51 PM ET: We're told his body has not been removed from the apartment.

The Wedding Is Off....
"Real Housewives of Atlanta" star Kandi Burruss disclosed that she is not getting married after all.
The pressures of the show and the drama associated with marriage has doomed the couple, she said.
"We're on hiatus," the former Xscape member said Friday on radio station WVEE's "The Frank & Wanda show."
Burruss, a new addition to the reality show, has been criticized by fans for wanting to marry "A.J.," who is the father of six children.
Burruss' harshest critic? Her mother.
"This is not the first time," Burruss said, that her mother has tried to sabotage a relationship.
During a recent "Real Housewives of Atlanta" episode, Kandi's mother walks off a photoshoot when A.J. sits down to take a picture with her, Kandi and her granddaughter.
The struggle and strife has apparently taken a toll on Kandi and her mother's relationship.
Burruss said that it got to a point where she didn't know if she wanted she and A.J.'s relationship to endure to spite her mother or because she was in love.
Another bombshell Burruss confirmed during a V-103 interview was that former Xscape member Tiny and A.J. did date previously. Albeit 10 years ago.
Burruss admitted that after the group broke up she and Tiny weren't even on speaking terms, and that's when A.J. and her former Xscape colleague dated.
But the girls mended fences, and when A.J. came around years later, Burruss said she ran it by Tiny to see if it was cool.
"[Tiny] said he was cool, that she wasn't even thinking of him like that," she said.
The two went out and "I really liked him," Burruss said.
When asked about A.J.'s employment, Burruss kidded that he was sort of like "Tommy" on the 1990s sitcom "Martin," but she said that he had several businesses, including a debts collection agency.
She refused to get into his past, telling Frank Ski to ask A.J. himself.
"The Real Housewives of Atlanta" has been a ratings queen for Bravo. The second-season premiere earlier this month brought in the highest ratings of any "Real Housewives" franchise and was the highest-rated Thursday in Bravo's history.

Why the Hate: Mickey D's 'Black' Site Cruxified
Friday Aug 21, 2009 – By Craig JC
Conservatives, neocons and down right racists are mercilessly criticizing McDonald's decision to launch a web site celebrating African-Americans.
The site, 365black.com, has launched recently and has had to endure threats, taunts and cruel jokes akin to having no ketchup with your fries.
For its part, 365.black.com has this to say about its purpose:
"We believe that African-American culture and achievement should be celebrated 365 days a year — not just during Black History Month. That's the idea behind 365Black.com. It's a place where you can learn more about education, employment, career advancement and entrepreneurship opportunities, and meet real people whose lives have been touched by McDonald's."
Fox Nation, an opinion site started by Fox News earlier this year, has had a field day chastising the McDonald's Corporation about 365black.com, a site many commenters call "racist" and blatant race-mongering.
The comments below are just a selection of those available. Please note also that Fox Nation is a moderated web site that removes offensive content. These, obviously were not removed:
Navy(Retired): What do you expect, that's all that works there
Annabell: Most of the time..they can't even count the change. It's sad too.
Lone Star: Next thing you know Ronald will have a doooo rag on and a large watch around his neck on a big gold blingy chain
Out of the Blue: can you get waffles and a 40 oz with a chicken sandwich now?
You can get a nappy meal to.
Paul: Maybe McDonalds could next open an illegal Mexican branch so they would all feel at home since they act like it's theirs anyway.
noblinkster: Hey, maybe they will have watermelon on their summer menu!!
Mike S: Crack pipes in Happy meals for the black kids
Kenyan Chronicles: Check out their CEO–(black)—– He gave $30,000 to odumbo's election —-How much of that came from YOUR wallet?………Enjoy those big-macs!
Captain Obvious: They want separation? Then let them TRY to survive without the "evil" white man!
Nicotinegun: Let McDonalds do what they want. If they want to pander let the ones they pander to pay them for food. Don't go their. Personally, I would like to see a national boycott on any place that has Spanish on their walls, telephones, products, etc. That would be great.
JPT: Since over 40% of blacks are obese, Micky D's is trying to capitalize .
teddy69: yeah, and the other 60% are flat worthless!
teddy69: i'm sure our founding fathers never intended our country to get this messed up! you remember the movie "Planet of The Apes"???
FoxNewsAddict: I will be boycotting McD's until it puts up a WHITE360 website!!!!
SandraR: This is the most racist contrivance I have ever seen in my life. This stupidity needs litigation RASISUM extraordinaire.
kcchiefsfan: I am so pissed off!!! I left them my feedback and ask them when were we going to have a "White McDonalds" website for us white folks too! OMG and leave it to McDonalds!!! I've seen everything now! Isn't that what Popeyes Chicken is for???
Many share the sentiment that if the fast-food restaurant had started a site called 365White that there would be a rigorous debate complete with rallies and marches.
So vitriolic has the issue become, that at least one web site has sprung up targeting McDonald's for a boycott.
It goes without saying that McDonald's has made a fortune in the black community. It also seems to be common knowledge that for years the eatery – along with a few similar others — was the only "real job" that would employ persons of color in heavily African-American areas. Stands to reason that some of these employees have risen in the ranks, now to the point where they can make important decisions about ways to market and promote the McDonald's name and product.
It is fairly possible that this 365black.com has born itself from those humble beginnings.
But there is also a dissenting point of view, one that says that the web site is just the latest way a multi-billion-dollar corporation is leaching off black people.
Either way, the hate from the conservative right-wingers seems out of pocket.

Simon Cowel Likes Chocolate
Move over Robert De Niro. Simon Cowell is also "down with brown."
A glamorous African American woman, relatively unknown in the United States, has had an on-again off-again love affair with the 'American Idol' judge many think is unlovable.
Her professional name is Sinitta, and she's a former pop singer who now works with Cowell on his successful TV talent competition 'The X Factor,' helping him select the contestants and acting as a mentor.
And although they dated each other -- along with having marriages and high-profile relationships with other people -- Sinitta still loves him dearly.
"I love him with all my heart," the 40-year-old Seattle native who now lives in Europe, told London's Daily Mail this week. "When we are together, he's a very primary person in my life," she continued. "But he wants to be a single guy. He wants to see who he wants to see when he wants to see them. I'm a very monogamous woman. I need someone who will put me first the whole time."

1adakiss has been caught up in a drug scandal after his NY apartment was raided by police.
Two city men were arrested on drug charges, and officers are trying to determine why 6 pounds of marijuana, 5 grams of heroin and a large stash of cash were found in rapper Jadakiss' waterfront apartment, police said yesterday.
Jason Phillips, known as Jadakiss, the 34-year-old Yonkers rapper, "is not wanted at this time," Lt. Joseph Monaco said.
Phillips, the hip-hop artist who has been associated with D-Block, Bad Boy Records, Roc-A-Fella, Ruff Ryders and Def Jam labels, could not be reached at the time.
Arrested were Alberto Lajara, 25, and Gabriel R. Henriquez, 39.
Police said Henriquez had a room in the apartment, which is leased to Jadakiss.
"He (Henriquez) stays there. He had the keys. His passport and all his stuff was in a room there," Monaco said.
The incident started at 3:59 p.m. Friday when Officers Sean Fogarty and Edward Murphy were driving by and noticed a 2003 Ford Crown Victoria parked on the sidewalk. A strong odor of marijuana came from the car, police said.
The officers, who saw a bag of marijuana in the front console, arrested the driver, Lajara, police said.
As they were interviewing Henriquez, he told them he was late for a flight to Fort Lauderdale, Fla. Henriquez refused to tell the officers where he was coming from.
Henriquez became nervous when the officers called for another police cruiser, Monaco said. He swore and bolted from the car, but was quickly apprehended after a foot pursuit and brief struggle, police said.
The officers learned that Henriquez was coming from the apartment. He had keys to Jadakiss' apartment, police said. With a search warrant, police said, they found the drugs and about $42,000 in cash.
Lajara is charged with fifth-degree criminal possession of marijuana, a misdemeanor, and disorderly conduct, a violation. Henriquez is charged with second-degree criminal possession of marijuana, third-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance and second-degree assault, all felonies, and second-degree obstruction of governmental administration, a misdemeanor.
This Is You On Drugs..Any Questions?
The former music producer for Britney Spears, 50 Cent and Mariah Carey continues his legendary fall from grace -- Scott Storch has lost his massive Miami Mansion.
SunTrust Bank took back ownership of the home Storch defaulted on last July, buying it back at an auction on Friday for $5.5 million.
The 10-bedroom, 16-bath home was valued at around $7 million.
The bank had been trying to foreclose on Storch for months, but couldn't because he had declared for bankruptcy (it was recently dismissed).

Mayweather Shooting....
When will these athletes learn....
Las Vegas police searched the home of Floyd Mayweather, Jr. today after the boxer's car was spotted at the scene of a shooting that occurred last night.
The shooting happened at the Crystal Palace Skating Center sometime yesterday evening -- our law enforcement sources say no one was hurt or injured. We're told cops don't know if Mayweather was actually at the scene at the time of the incident.
According to KVVU, a search warrant was served at Floyd's home today, but it's unclear as to what they were looking for.
Our sources say cops are looking to talk to Floyd to see if he knows anything about what went down.
UPDATE: We just spoke to Floyd Mayweather, Sr., who said his son had nothing to do with the shooting.
Mayweather Sr. tells us he spoke to Floyd about 30 minutes ago. He said cops ransacked his son's home today looking for a gun, but didn't find anything.
Mayweather Sr. said the reason his son's car was at the skating rink last night was because he takes his kids there every Sunday to skate.

Ryan Jenkins Hangs Himself
Ryan Jenkins was found dead in Canada yesterday -- hanging from a coat rack in a motel room -- but the investigation into the murder of his wife, Jasmine Fiore, continues.
Authorities in Canada are looking for the woman who allegedly drove Jenkins to the Thunderbird Motel in Hope, B.C. on Thursday and checked him in. The manager of the motel says she was in her early 20s and drove a silver PT Cruiser with Alberta license plates.
The woman stayed with Jenkins for about 20 minutes and wasn't seen again. The woman paid upfront for three days -- in cash. The manager claims he never got a good look at Jenkins because he waited in the car while the mystery blond checked him in.
When Jenkins didn't check out Sunday as planned, the manager of the motel and his nephew went to check on him.
When there was no answer, they entered the room and found Jenkins hanging by his belt from a coat rack. Cops say they believe Jenkins' death was "an apparent suicide." He was wearing a t-shirt and jeans. There was a laptop open on a desk inside the room.
Jenkins had to be IDed through his fingerprints.
