Angela Beyince



...come get your mother!

TMZ has reported that Alexsandra Wright gave birth to Matthew Knowles son "Nixon Wright". As many websites congratulate Beyonce on the new addition to her family, they failed to congratulate her cousin Angela Beyince on becoming a big sister.

Yes - Alexsandra Wright and Tina Knowles are related. This also explain the reason why Angela Beyince went underground (protected her tweets on twitter, pulled biological data and photos off the internet and video streams) as soon as word broke that Alexsandra Wright (her biological mother) filed a paternity suite against Matthew Knowles.

Julia Lira


The 7-Year-Old drew the eyes of parents, social workers and child welfare advocates around the world when she performed at recent carnival events in Brazil.

The young girl shook her toosh and marched alongside sultry models and actresses. It's being reported that a judge ruled last week that she could join in on parade activites. Julia wore a lot of makeup, a sequined halter top and a miniskirt made of purple feathers. She also stood next to a 7 (or 9) year old boy dressed in a pimp inspired suit.

It was also reported that the 7 year old marched alongside her mother during this parade:

She reveals:

My photo shoots, album packaging and video shoots are very inspired by 60s and 70s fashion. My mother [Tina Knowles] always had great coffee table books. I looked specifically at The Supremes, Earth, Wind & Fire and Isley Brothers for fashion and it’s very apparent, I think.”

The singer also reveals that she is preparing to release a new album this year:

“..., I’m actually about to lock myself in a tree house in Costa Rica and finish my record. I’m writing and setting up a whole studio there. Hopefully it will be out this fall,”

Beyonce:



Many websites and blogspots are circulating this picture of Beyonce. They are stating that this is a 'morning' shot of the singer without her makeup and wig.

Funny - If she just woke up, why is she wearing make-up and a teased out wig?

The image below is of beyonce during her time with Destiny Child. The singer was getting make-up and fake eye lashes applied. One side of her face is manly, pale and she look totally different without make-up.



Here's the actual video:

Story Time:


Say it ain't so...

There's a book heating up the urban book shelves titled "Take Her Man". The story line seems a bit common and a lot like the singer 'Beyonce Knowles' personal life. Funny - I wonder if Beyonce granted 'Grace Octavia' permission to use her name in a published novel. It's also strange that there's a character name "Tasha" (rhymes with Sasha) and Lionel (Beyonce's old flame) and the author has roots in New York, City and oddly resembles Matthew Knowles and Kelly Rowland (prior to those surgical procedures).

Judge for yourself...

Here's a paragraph from the actual novel:



Take Her Man: Grace Octavia





Jay-Z



It seems as if the rapper is eager to build a hotel in his home state of New York.

He recently filed a lawsuit against Highland Capital Management for failing to deliver on a loan agreement.

According to Businessweek:

Shawn Carter, the rap music artist and Rocawear clothing business founder known as Jay-Z, sued the investment firm Highland Capital Management LP in a dispute over loan guarantees.

Carter, in his complaint filed yesterday in federal court in New York, claims Highland and co-defendant NexBank SSB are attempting to “bleed” from him funds in excess of those he and two other men pledged to pay when they guaranteed the non- principal obligations of a company planning to build a hotel in Manhattan’s west side neighborhood of Chelsea.

Highland Capital, based in Dallas, was founded by James Dondero and Mark Okada in 1993. It oversees about $25 billion in assets, chiefly in credit markets. NexBank is based in the same city.

Highland and NexBank acted in bad faith when they declined to clear Carter and his fellow guarantors of their obligations after receiving a deed in lieu of foreclosure on the property, according to the complaint.

The rap star is seeking a declaratory judgment that he has met those obligations. He’s also seeking damages of more than $3.7 million for the additional interest and other costs incurred while still being held liable under the agreements.


Building hotels is the new retirement plan for artist and entertainers within Hollywood.
