Beyonce's recent comments about the Jackson family has Janet Jackson a little pissy according to The National Enquirer claims:“…The Jackson family came from Gary, Indiana and there was a time they barely squeaked by. But Janet has many loving memories and is incensed that Beyonce would make a crack like that.”“She feels Beyonce went out of her way to tell the world she’s from the upper class and the Jacksons were like a bunch of dirty gutter rats.”“Janet is proud of her family and how they came from nothing and became superstars.”“Not only is Janet telling everyone who will listen that Beyonce has a lot of growing up to do and that she needs to stop trying to impress everyone, she’s planning to confront Beyonce herself and read her the riot act.”
Here is what Beyonce said that pissed Janet off:
“I grew up upper class. Private school.” “My dad had a Jaguar. We’re African-American and we work together as a family, so people assume we’re like the Jacksons, but I didn’t have parents using me to get out of a bad situation.”
-I mean Beyonce could have kept the last part to herself really

Christina Milian and T.I. On The upcoming double cover issue of Rap-Up magazine.
On what it would take for him to be conceited like Kanye West: “Selling a billion. At about a billion, I think I’d be pretty hard to deal with.”On winning awards: “No disrespect to Kanye, but that kinda stuff just don’t mean nothing to me. Whether or not I win an award, I mean that’s nice, but at the end of the day I understand that I’m a man. What being a man means to me is not defined by an award or an amount of records sold.”
On the reason why she was dropped: “It was a budget cut, I believe. [Def Jam] probably got rid of projects like mine to spend the money on [Rihanna].”
On learning about ex-boyfriend Nick Cannon’s marriage to Mariah Carey: “I was surprised like everyone else. I was like, ‘Really?’ It just seemed like a weird match, but I was happy for him. I always feel Nick works hard to get what he wants, whether that be women—that’s how he got me.”
- Is she sick,??someone always need a blame. Your albums weren't selling boo

Not only is he suing Brandy but he's suing Awatef Aboudihaj, the woman who died.

Kanye Wants to Be A Fashion Intern
There are a lot of rumors going around but this one has me kind of believing it to be possible. Mr. Kanye West apparently has decided that he will move to London and put his music career on hold to study fashion design in Europe. Kanye is already as we known working on his own line called Pastelle, sources say "He's applying at Louis Vuitton, Raf Simmons and others. Everyone is surprised at just how seriously Kanye is taking his fashion dream. He is always in the front rows during the Paris and Milan fashion weeks. He absolutely loves London and wants to absorb the fashion over here." If you remember a while ago Kanye did make this comment: "I'm going to go and take an internship and just do something that's like completely normal and just rap on the weekends or something. "-If this it to be true, i think he may get a lot more respect for fans and fashion designers because out of all the celebrities that have the resources to start a line or anything. He actually wants to learn about what he's trying to do and start from the bottom.
T-Boz Tells Essence She is NOT Losing Her Home
ESSENCE.COM: There have been reports that a Georgia property of yours is going into foreclosure. Is that true?T-BOZ: No, I’m not homeless. During my last marriage [to Mack 10], I had a bunch of things that were put in my name. If one of those properties is going into foreclosure then I don’t know. Although I’ve been divorced for five years, there are still a lot of things I’m dealing with on getting straight in that regard. All I know is that the house I live in with my daughter is not. When you pull up my name, my real house doesn’t show up because it’s not in my real name, because I enjoy my privacy and I’m not trying to have people be able to find me that easily.
ESSENCE.COM: There were also reports of you losing a home in Houston?T-BOZ: I’ve never owned a home in Houston. I closed a store in Houston, Chase’s Closet, where I sold girls and boys clothing from infants to 12 years. The store is named after my daughter, Chase. For now, I only have the online store (chasescloset.com).
ESSENCE.COM: That explains the locale. Did you see the photos they had of you that were allegedly in front of your Houston home begging for donations?
T-BOZ: It’s almost a waste of energy to give an explanation, but I’ll just say that the [blogosphere] loves to make up things. I remember that photo and it was on Craiglist.com showing me holding up an autographed picture on the internet saying, “If you come to this address with cash we’ll give you an autographed picture.” The only thing that irritated me was that they said that the proceeds would be donated to St. Jude’s [Children's Research Hospital]. I can take people talking about me all day, but don’t use my name to make fun of sick children because that’s beyond low and sick. I was a sick kid for a long time, in and out of the hospital most of my life battling my sickle cell, so I don’t find anything funny about that kind of joking. Why would anyone target innocent sick children to make fun of? That’s not cool at all. I mean someone actually took the time to make up all this stuff.
