Eve DUI

Police sources says that Eve’s blood alcohol level was "double the legal limit."

Eve was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence after she crashed her gold Maserati on Hollywood Boulevard.

Eve (real name: Eve Jeffers) was driving in Hollywood around 2:45 AM Thursday when she hit the center divider, totaling the front of her car. After cops arrived, they placed her in handcuffs, and (according to our staffers) she was "visibly upset" as they led her into a squad car. There were two people in the car with Eve at the time.

Ok so is it just me or does anybody else miss ‘BlackStar’? I heard these brothers where in the studio working on a new album. For a minute I had been trying to find this unreleased song of theirs ‘Little Brother’ and just a couple of weeks ago I found it, this track in a word is the ‘Truth’.

Pegleg Spring/Summer 07



Untitled Document
Pegleg from New York City have just released their Spring/Summer 2007 collection and as usual there are some nice pieces in there. What we especially like about Pegleg, is that they keep their very own style and one hardly find pieces in their collections that are similar to anything else.

In the new Spring/Summer 2007 line you find some crazy new knitwear, nice new tees and also their much anticipated cotton jackets in several colorways.

Pegleg is sold at Atmos NYC, Huf, Union, Dover Street Market and online exclusively through their own online store.

Check out the rest of the new pieces after the jump.

This photo, taken in Cabo San Lucas just a few weeks ago, proves once again that Michael Jordan, even years after retirement, continues to display the true heart of a champion. You have to admire a guy who isn’t afraid to bump and grind while still smoking a cigar.

Gimme the Loot, Gimme the Loot…

from TMZ:

In the lawsuit, Des’ree and her reps claim that Beyonce, along with her record company people, originally tried to work out a deal to use the song. When they weren’t satisfied with the proposed terms — which included not being able to change the title or make a music video for the song — Beyonce allegedly blew off copyright law completely, and recorded the song and video without permission. The song was eventually released on Beyonce’s album, "B’Day – Deluxe Edition" on April 3, 2007, with the title "Still in Love (Kissing You)."

Des’ree is suing to halt distribution of the song, video and album and seeking at least $150,000 in damages.

I use to like the Des’ree version ‘kissing you’ remember it from the movie Romeo & Juliet, and they played it in the scene when Leo first sees Juliet, Classic! But I think Des’ree’s version is better you be the judge.
