Check out the foolywang king of VH1’s new video:
WTF Flavor Flav? Just WTF?? This ish just CANNOT carry over into 2010. It just can’t. You’re like 75 now. Auto-tune does not cover that ish up. Just stop.
News on Beyonce and Tina Knowles and their love/hate relationship with gossip and Tiger loses a deal when you read the rest…
And who woulda thunk it. Tina Knowles is apparently a gossip junkie. I knew she was just like me and you when that House Of Damnitstillwrong creole glitter isn’t taking up her oxygen. Beyonce revealed in a recent interview that her mama is all into the tabloid fodder…and she’s kinda embarrassed by it:
“You know what? My mother loves to read celeb magazines, especially the racy tabloids!” said the star. “I can’t believe it sometimes. She’ll go to this magazine store in New York and buy 20 magazines while I’m standing next to her.
“I’m just praying nobody recognizes me while my mom is stacking up those magazines! But she loves reading the gossip about celebs and movie stars.
“I tell her a lot of the stuff isn’t true, but she says she gets a kick out of reading all the nonsense that gets printed, even about me!”
Even though Tina — who filed for divorce from Beyonce’s father Matthew this month — likes to laugh about the false stories written about her daughter, Beyonce couldn’t cope without her, particularly when she is on tour.
“My mom and my cousin are the leaders of my entourage,” she said. “They’re with me to help me stay grounded and relax and avoid going out on the town, which is something I rarely do anyway.”

Tina just moved up on my LOVES HER belt a few notches….
And in other news, 2010 just isn’t off to a great start for Tiger Woods. After reports hit this week that he caused about $12 BILLION in losses for his advertisers after they stuck by him through Tigergate….AT&T just announced they are dropping him and will no longer be his sponsor. According to BBC News:
The company joins Accenture and Gillette in dropping support for the golfer after he admitted to “infidelity” to his wife.
AT&T’s logo appeared on the golfer’s bag. The company did not comment on its reasons for dropping Woods.
The company was also the host of the AT&T National PGA event in July – something it says it will continue to sponsor.
In a terse statement, AT&T said: “We are ending our sponsorship agreement with Tiger Woods and wish him well in the future.”
Could be because of Tiger’s “infinite break” announcement…or maybe they just didn’t feel like taking any more heat from their customers. Either way…Tiger’s going to have to find a new calling card….
