- We can’t plan life. All we can do is be available for it. -

Lauryn Hill

With the week that we’ve had I’m so glad to see your face! I don’t mean to be a party pooper but I gotta say that the death of Derrion Albert has had me thinkin. When will it end? Will it ever end? Violence in ou communities is much more important than any new music or fashion which explains why I feel like I would be a shitty blogger/writer if I didn’t speak on the matter for just two secs. My heart goes out to Derrion and his family and to Kandi from Housewives of Atlanta who lost her fiance AJ in a brutal stabbing last night in Atlanta.

This mess we are surviving in called a world is so unpredictable and family I’m praying we find a solution to why we as a generation would rather whoop each others ass every chance we get. Enough about what I have to say about the matter check out what Nas had to say about the demise of young Derrion Albert. WARNING: WE ALL KNOW THIS MAN SPITS KNOWLEDGE SO HOLD ON TO YOU SEATS THIS COULD GET DEEP.

“Dear Young Warriors fighting the wrong wars! Killing each other is definitely played out. Being hurt from the lost of a love one was never cool.
Dear Young Warriors fighting the wrong war! I know that feeling, that frustration with life and needing to take it out on someone, any one. But….
We chose the dumbest things to go the hardest for. I remember seeing deaths over 8 ball jackets, Fila sneakers, and name plate chains. Deaths over ‘he say, she say!!!!!’ ‘I’m from this block or I’m from that block,’ or ‘my moms n pops is f*cked up now the whole world gotta pay!!!’
I remember feeling like I was the hardest ‘n*gga’ breathing. And I couldn’t wait to prove it. But let’s think. What are we really proving?? And proving what to who?? Everybody knows Chicago breeds the strongest of the strong but I just feel, me, being ya brother from another state feels your pain as if I grew up with you in ya very own household.
You have the ability and mindpower to change they way we are looked at. Look who’s watching us young warriors, look who’s throwing us in jail constantly, look at the ignorance in the world. Look at the racist dogs who love to see us down. Loving to bury us in the ground or in jail where we continue this worthless war on one another.
Young warriors…. We are WASTING more and more time. We gotta get on our jobs and take over the world. Cuz this movie left the theaters years ago, Juice, Menace, Boys n the Hood , Blood n Blood Out, Belly!
When we see each other why do we see hatred? Why were we born in a storm, born soldiers, WARRIORS….and instead of building each other up we are at war with each other.. May the soul of this young person find peace with the almighty. I’m with you young warriors. You’re me and I’m you. But trust me! you are fighting the wrong war.
This sh*t sucks!!”
-Nas

•Prayers go out to Khandi and AJ’s family. The pain of loosing someone you have been involved with is unreal and in this house we understand and support your recovery from this tragedy.•

“The Point Of It All”

I can’t stay away from you too long
Even if I do I’ll always call
Checkin’ on you make sure you’re ok
Be the one to brighten up your day

And the point of it all
Is I love you
You know I love you baby

My days seem long whenever we’re apart
It’s like someone had thrown away my heart
You’re a major part of my life
And no matter what the storm may bring
I’m fine with you,

And the point of it all
Is I love you
And the reason for it all
Is I love you

O I love
O I love you
O my love

I can’t stay away too long
I can’t stay away from you baby
Don’t wanna be without you
I need you
O why don’t you stay around for awhile

And the point of it all
And the point of it all
And the point of it all
And the point of it all
Ohhohh, and the reason for it all
And the point of it all
Is that I love you
Yeah, I love you

Whenever we’re apart
It damn near starves my heart
And I don’t ever want to be apart

…YEA BUDDY!…

NEXT! DRAMA DRAMA DRAMA ya”ll. According to necolebitchie.com Swizz Betaz wife Mashonda is looking for an explanation from Alicia Keys regarding Alicia’s recent tweets on how in love she is with Swizz. Listen ya”ll the real kicker is Swizz and Alicia have been dating for sometime now ya’ll but technically Swizz and Mashonda are still legally married. Poor Mashonda seems to just be looking for some type of closure with Alicia and I agree she rightfully deserves that much since Mashonda and Swizz do have a son that will be around Alicia at some point. With that said check out Mashonda’s Tweet to Alicia yesterday that was pretty classy and may I add well put…

After having a great evening with my son and enjoying some fun twit chat, I decided to sign off and get some work done. However, a few hours later I was advised that I should check @aliciakeys twit page. I’ve never reached out to her on twitter before. I feel our issues are a lot more serious than a website conversation. Not to mention that I’ve reached out to her many times in the beginning of this whole thing, as any wife would do. Unfortunately, I never succeeded in getting a response. The 1st time I meet AK, my husband introduced us to each other at an event. ( I have no choice but to call him my husband, until he is not anymore) In the messages that I sent to her (AK), I made it very clear that on the contrary of what she might be hearing, I am still married to my husband, living with him and just had a child. Its been two years and I still have not received a response. What I do receive, is constant displays of selfishness and disconcern to me and my son.

I was a fan of AK’s last album, we were both signed to J Records and I always checked up on her projects. I sang her songs and admired her for creating Superwoman and Karma, I would never deny her, her talent. I believed in her until I found out she was possibly sleeping with my husband. The affair was denied by both, until it was finally admitted months later.

Already I can hear some of you saying ” why are u blaming her, You cant make someone leave their wife, You cant break something thats broken”. Well, my marriage was not broken, as far as I knew we were celebrating our sons birth and getting ready to celebrate our 5 year wedding anniversary . Call it blind love, whatever. I call it being a devoted wife.. As far as me blaming her and not blaming him, thats false. Me and my husband have worked out our differences. We are in a good place as people and as parents. I accept his choices and I am comfortable enough with myself to move on. I am so very blessed in many ways.

My concern with AK is no longer the fact that she assisted in destroying a family but that she has the audacity to make these selfish comments about love and wanting to be with someone, even after knowing their situation. How is this the same Superwoman that I sang out loud with in my truck? I ask myself sometimes.

If you are reading this Alicia, let me start by saying, you know what you did. You know the role you played and you know how you contributed to the ending of my marriage. You know that I asked you to step back and let me handle my family issues. Issues that you helped to create.
Im not saying everything was perfect all the time but no relationship is perfect. We made a vow to God and I believe you should have respected that, as a woman. I know you owe me or my son nothing but I just wish you would’ve handled things more carefully. I’m not judging you, I put you and the whole situation in the hands of God, the Higher Power. Just know that as a woman, I expected so much more from you. I never had intentions on reaching out to you this way but after reading your twits tonight, and the constant disregard, you left me no choice. I feel that after 1 and a half years of you hiding this affair and acting like it doesnt exist, that now is the time to confront it, since you talk so openly about it now

This is not a publicity stunt, I dont have a record coming out. I just need to close this chapter in my life and that means confronting our issues. There is a small child involved. His dad loves him to death and he wants to spend more time with him but hes afraid because he knows we don’t have a relationship. This is my main concern. My son NEEDS his dad and I NEED to be comfortable with you. For him!

I know many will see my point and many will not be able to look into what’s real because they only want to see Alicia Keys the celebrity, not the human. This is not for the “people”, this is for you. Like I said I was left no choice but to reach out to you this way. By now, Im sure you want to find a balance in this as well.

I read your tweets tonight and I felt they were very insensitive. You have no idea how much pain I was caused because of this affair. Its baffling to me that you don’t understand what I might have gone through with this situation. I dont consider myself a victim anymore, Ive learned alot from this! I just ask you to try and be a bit more realistic and delicate to the situation, at least until my divorce is final. I felt me attending the party would have been a starting point for us, since you shook my hand after I offered it, but I suppose I was wrong.

If its so, that you and my husband are meant to be together, then God bless you both and I hope you never have to deal with what I did. I would not wish it on my worst enemy. If you two being together forever is the case, its more of a reason for us to get along, because I’m not going anywhere. Theres a child to be raised.

To answer your tweet, choose smart over spark. Sparks burn everyone, be smart! Its simple actually, just think of the shoe being on the other foot.

Stay blessed and lets work this thing out with respect and dignity.”

Am I the only one who wants to call Alicia and ask her about this now? lol SMH I guess we”ll have to wait to see if Alicia keeps ignoring Mashonda lol BUT Mashonda says she will post this everyday until she gets a response. Somethign has to be said for persistance right? Right?

*——————*

NEXT! okay last but not least i guess i’ll contribute to the rumor mill with the news that Souljah Boy and video vixen Rosa Acosta are engaged! If you have no clue who this chick is much like me… PEEP who the lucky lady is “rumored” to be—>

Well well well i’m sure Momma Souljah will be pleased lol IDK folks i”ll keep you posted on this rumor as it’s revealed!

*——————*

Well family that’s a wrap for this week! I’m exhausted from today’s rant but before I jump into this weekend I want to send congrats to Klhoe Khardashian and Lamar Odom and their engagement…

Who woulda thunk it? Hmmm… Oh and I want to wish “The KIng of the South”, T.I. of course, a happy belated birthday! Celebrate life this weekend and kick off your week or day with my fav T.I. joint! If you never bumped this song at some point in your life you missed out! SMH Signing off with hugs and FreNCh KIsseS XoxoXO ENJOY!:)

…How I sTay ProActive and StiLL Keep It BumPIn?_bIG SeAn_…

msmetcalf — Fri, 18 Sep 2009 23:42:30 +0000

I refuse to talk about Kanye, Taylor Swift (who reportedly received flowers from Janet Jackson after the ordeal! AWWW), Lil Mama (p.s. Alicia Keys had this to say about the situation, “Lil Mama should have been overwhelmed from her seat!” * hard giggle*) , or the VMA’s anymore. It’s become half away annoying at how much coverage his antics are getting and I’m sorry but I’m so over it (although word around town is Kanye has landed a Hennesy endorsement due to his rude interlude! Greaaattt just what we wanted for the hip hop community * rolling my eyes*)! With that said all I want to show is Lil Mama’s apology today. If your days late like me peep what she had to say about her cornball decision to jump on stage during Jay-s and Alicia’s performance. –>

Lil Mama you know dayum well you weren’t invited to share the moment with him! * hands on my hips* What a career killing move! sMh

*———————*

So anywho let’s move on shall we? Ahhhhhh it’s Friday and I have a new plush couch, try it…go head sit on down boo. G We all family so slip off your shoes and turn on the fan. Grab that Hawaiian Punch and let’s get to ya yappin. You ready? LEGGGOOO!

*——————-*

FIRST UP! Is it just me or has Oprah stepped up her game this season?First the buzz about Jay being on her show, then Whitney Houston talking about her crack ordeals( i will be posting that footage today also) and yesterday Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon made a stop on her show! Mariah sang fairly well and good news MC fans her new c.d. “Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel” will be out September 29^th! If ya”ll missed the show you missed the shot of MC’s ring and the promo for the upcoming Tyler Perry and Oprah produced movie featuring Mariah entitled, “Precious”. Ya’ll are just gonna die when you see this trailer. The movie looks like it has a jam packed talented cast and it’s been said to be one of the most touching movie’s of 09! Peep the trailer—

Mariah’s getting rave reviews so let’s hope she doesn’t have a Glitter repeat! LoL I highly doubt it though because this book and film have enough buzz of their own to carry her to another level!

*———————-*

NEXT! I got Kanye news, i know i know stop the boo’s … it’s actually positive.

Mr.EGO himself has landed 9 BET nominations! I would give a congratulations shpill but I’m afraid he’ll show up and take over my comp! *PoW*

*———————–*

NEXT! Since when has community service become news worthy! Pics of Chris Brown pickin weeds in VA have surfaced and that orange vest is all the rage! LoL Peep the pics of our R&B prince pickin up the pieces of his mistake—>

Poor poo let the man do his duty without an audience! SmH *sending air hugs to CB*

P.S. So where can I get that vest from real talk? lol

*————————–*

NEXT! Word is Dame has started his own label! Peep the song from one of his first artist The Black Keys ft Jim Jones and the sexy MoS DeF! Peep it…BUMP IT OR DUMP IT?

IDK Dame where exactly are you goin with this? lol *side eye*

*——————–*

NEXT! Okay so the week swallowed me up and I missed Whitney’s appearance on Oprah! What I miss family? Uh huh, uh huh, uh huh…really? Well eff it for those of you who missed the much chatted about Whitney interview here’s what i could grab for ya!—->

HOOOOOLLLLD UP Whitney is a G! Did she say she hit him over the head three times? lol Her fist better be more powerful than her mouth! Listen family we all knew their relationship was nutty and rollercoaster like but the spitting and the crack? Too far!!!!! Who’s down to find Bobbi and get to the bottom of this? Not feeling sorry for Whit as much as I am their daughter, I’m hoping she comes out on of those kids who are unaffected … we shall see!

*————————*

Okay so calm down it’s been a whole week since I’ve posted new music but don’t trip I’m servin you up as we speak! I told ya”ll i Love you and for that reason here ya go…………..

They say this KiD is Jay-Z’s answer to Drake. His buzz is NUTS and he’s become hard to ignore seeing as you may have heard him on Jay-z ‘s “A Star is Born”. Peep one of his mixtape tracks. WARNING: THIS IS REAL HIP HOP AND IT MAY GIVE YOU SEVERE HEAD NODS AND CHILLS.IF YOU ENJOY SOULJAH BOY THIS IS NOT FOR YOU.—->

I dig Her style but i’m unsure about longevity…—>

NEW MUSIC FROM CHRIS BROWN always makes my day! Say what you will but hearing his voice does something to me. Lovin the combo with Bow and Pleasure P!!

Who hasn’t heard this remix yet? One step above luke warm..it’s hott!–>

This one’s the wild card of the day and only for the music heads who listen to IT ALL! We don’t do just HIP HOP in this house *side eye* Anywho LADIES this strictly fro the girls who have recently fallen but are unsure! Miss thign sings words of the heart with her guitar!

msmetcalf — Tue, 15 Sep 2009 00:40:51 +0000

Okay Okay forget the intro, close the door, shoes off, butt down! Let’s begin!

Who in th edoes Kanye think he is? Who else was embarrassed my his Hennessy bottle carryin, interrupting, all the sudden Beyonce’s legal representation ass? If you missed his antics last night at the VMA’s you didn’t miss much! Watch Kanye embarass us! SMH

I was able to snag the half ass apology Kanye posted for Taylor on his blog. Peep the train wreck get uglier—–>

“I’M SOOOOO SORRY TO TAYLOR SWIFT AND HER FANS AND HER MOM. I SPOKE TO HER MOTHER RIGHT AFTER AND SHE SAID THE SAME THING MY MOTHER WOULD’VE SAID. SHE IS VERY TALENTED! I LIKE THE LYRICS ABOUT BEING A CHEERLEADER AND SHE’S IN THE BLEACHERS! …………………… I’M IN THE WRONG FOR GOING ON STAGE AND TAKING AWAY FROM HER MOMENT!…………….. BEYONCE’S VIDEO WAS THE BEST OF THIS DECADE!!!! I’M SORRY TO MY FANS IF I LET YOU GUYS DOWN!!!! I’M SORRY TO MY FRIENDS AT MTV. I WILL APOLOGIZE TO TAYLOR 2MRW. WELCOME TO THE REAL WORLD!!!! EVERYBODY WANNA BOOOOO ME BUT I’M A FAN OF REAL POP CULTURE!!! NO DISRESPECT BUT WE WATCHIN’ THE SHOW AT THE CRIB RIGHT NOW CAUSE … WELL YOU KNOW!!!! I’M STILL HAPPY FOR TAYLOR!!!! BOOOYAAAWWWW!!!! YOU ARE VERY VERY TALENTED!!! I GAVE MY AWARDS TO OUTKAST WHEN THEY DESERVED IT OVER ME… THAT’S WHAT IT IS!!!!!!! I’M NOT CRAZY YALL, I’M JUST REAL. SORRY FOR THAT!!! I REALLY FEEL BAD FOR TAYLOR AND I’M SINCERELY SORRY!!! MUCH RESPECT!!!!!”

Taylor on behalf of the Hip Hop community I apologize for this man and his Hennesey bottle. Taht ego of his is almost about to make me vomit and keep my money in my wallet for good when it comes to him! Various celebs Tweeted their disgust for Kanye and I can’t say im not disappointed. He may have said what we wanted to say but c’mon ya”ll timing is everything! Am i right? BUT HEY at the end of the day we’re still family and every family has that drunk uncle that gets a little outta control on holidays. With that said..folks…get Uncle Kanye!

*——————————–*

NEXT! Since we’re talking about disgust who wants to take turns hitting Lil Mama in her face? WTF?! Who ruins a performance by two living legends? Jay-z and Alicia killed it but who in the hell told this rat to crawl on stage?—–>

The look of disgust on Jay-z’s face says enough! LOL Lil Mama may have officially murdered her rep and career. What ya”ll think?

*——————————-*

NEXT! In better news Beyonce handled the night rather well and performed as if it was her last night on stage eva!!! WORRRRKKKKK girl! I knew there was a reason I loved this BIsh!! She’s the BEST and I’m not worthy miss thing! If you missed it here no worries i gOtcha!!—>

That girl is somethin else!!!! I feel like in 15 yrs i”ll still be standing in line trying to buy tickets to her come back tour!!

*———————*

I wasn’t even gonna chat today but DayuM it i had to get those thing soff my chest!!! GeeesH what anight I’m diggin for my scoop and reactions until then keep visiting me and for all you real hip hop heads i have one quick question …Do we hate KAnye? For real ya”ll how do we feel? This behavior is gettin outta control! < shoulder shrug> SHould we feed his ego anymore? Lemme know your thoughts!

…PeAcE…

msmetcalf — Sun, 13 Sep 2009 23:41:59 +0000

FIRST UP! You can say a lot of things about Keri Hilson but dayum it the girl can write her butt off! If you don’t love her c.d. then you must be tone death or outta touch! With that said i was dumb Geeked to see that her video for “Slow Dance” was finally released! One of my fav songs on the c.d. actually has an equally hott video! I’m proud to post the following->>>>>>>

*——————*

Congrats MaMaz!!!

*———————-*

NEXT! I’m starting to believe Jeremih’s not a one hit wonder!!! Peep his new video for his new song ” Break up to Make Up”. BUMP IT OR DUMP IT??

*———————*

NEXT! After Whitney received poor reviews for her latest release I wasn’t sure what to expect. Poor Whit she just can’t seem to strike hot like the good ole days! Who has the c.d.? I need your thoughts cus I refuse to believe it’s half as bad as the critics say! Well after diggin i found her new video for her latest song ” I look to you”. Eff what ya heard miss thing looks faB!

*————-*

NEXT! I’m extremely peeved that I missed the initial airing of Jay’z concert at Madison Square but if you are like me and had prior engagements here’s a little taste of what we missed! P.S. no worries it airs again this Saturday on FUSE!

*——————*

NEXT! Oh Em GEE G’s and Gents I could hardly handle the buzz about the movie Takers featuring T.I. and Chris Brown. I couldn’t help but to go diggin for proof the project even existed! Well good news…IT EXIST!!!! Found the trailer ..check check check it out!—->

Who’s buying my ticket to see this? Any Takers? *looks around*Anybody? anybody? lol Word is the release date for this star packed action flick is February 19.2010. *hands on my hips and given you the side eye* Now stay away from the bootlegs folks and pay the ticket price dang it! We all know Chris Breezy and T.i. need the dinero after there recent troubles! SmH

*———————*

NEXT!!! OKay so if you have been spending some time under a rock i guess you may have missed the news. Christina Milan is prego by The Dream!

It’s been confirmed that the two jumped the broom not long ago in Vegas and now they are reported to be excited about starting their family. Well dayum what ever happened to taking things slow? I guess when you have the dinero you can live life in the HOV lane! CoNGRATS! I like this pair! They seem genuinely in love and ready to start their lives! Now who’s starting the pool on how long it will last? lol HATERS!!!!

*—————————-*

NEXT! I guess it’s safe to say Fat Joe is back! BX stand up! lol IDK i hate the girl filled video concept, it’s kinda how do you say….DONE ALREADY! What ya”ll think?

*—————–*

Well well well look at the time! I’m simply exhausted from a jam packed week and you’ve almost squeezed all the major news of the week outta me! A chick is runnin on E! So make sure you enjoy your week and don”t you even think about lettin any haters, dream killers, or drama kill ya week! lol

On a serious note Septemebr 13th marks 13 years that the late great Tupac Shakur has passed on. I can hardly remember my class schedule yet I remember the day he passed like it was my favorite sixteen or movie. As a father to the hip hop game and a legend around the world it’s hard to believe it’s been that long since he left us. Posting anything else as a goodbye gift but Pac would just be down right disrespectful. Take time this week to recognize a man who made such an impact in such a little amount of time. We love you Tupac and there will never be another you.

Don’t you just love pretty days? No clouds, money comen in, breeze blowin the haters off! YESSSSSS folks it’s gonna be a good last half of the week!:D Dizzzaaayymmm have i missed ya”ll! Eff the drama, the stress, the BS, i’d much rather be with ya”ll *wink* OKay so leave my screen door open and grab that Kool aid out the fridge we need ot chat it up!

*————*

FIRST UP! Who copped the Jay album? If you haven’t downloaded, dubbed, bought, or obsessively YOUTUBE’d every joint …kill ya self! lol Sooooo what’s ya favorite track? Oh yea that ish is hott! I feel you! Wanted to share my fav joints so far, they are the following:

Oh UNCLE JAY don’t hurt um!!! lol That gives me chills and eargasims word to Toronto!

*————*

NEXT!OKay so at first i was a proud ATLalien when the Housewvies came in to document my city and how we do BUT did you see these chicks embarass themselves on Ellen yesterday? Oh c’mon check this mess out i’m silently about to disown these pump wearin cookie baken drama filled ladies!

*————*

NEXT! Okay so TYRA’s back!!!!!! No Ellen but i love her ! Who saw her reveal her real hair? IDK why it was such a HUGE deal but i’m thinken she needed some noise to kick off her new season! Well those of you with nine to five’s may have been punchin the clock so here’s what u missed….

Hair is hair i change mine like underwear ! *hehe* Anywho days later Bow Wow stops by and once again Tyra gets a little rating hungry and ask him to kiss her…IDK Ty i think you ova did this time sis smDh lol Peep it!—->

*————-*

NEXT! SO who slipped T-Pain his crazy pills to early this week? Dayum you for ruining your career Pain! I enJOyed your off key voice…. Seems T-Pain felt the need to talk trash about Jay-z recently and got the backlash of his life! Here’s what he had to say on Power 105 in response to the “beef” he cooked up….

“This aint the first time I done said it. Nothing has changed. I called Jay and I said can you come out on my set [during Summer Jam] and do the D.O.A song, it’ll be a big look for me and you. I embrace the song, I love the song and don’t get me wrong Jay-z is the best in the game period. I would never say anything different. At that time he said “yo I’m triple booked, I’m in Switzerland right now, I can’t do it”. Then I’m ready to go on stage after Jeezy set and they said “hold on, Jay-z is about to come out with Jeezy” and I said ” Jay-z is in switzerland”. They say “no he’s not, he’s right there” and I look to the side and there’s Jay-z. So he gets on the stage and when he gets to the part where he says “I don’t need anyone smiling at this” he pointed at me and then at the end of the song when I tried to shake his hand, he turned around, gave the mic to someone and said “good riddance”.

*falls on the floor in hysteria* lol So basically Jay serves you to the real hip hop goons you try n shake his hand and he disses you cus he doesn’t respect ya swag and you get mad ….PAIN callme crazy but i think that means it’s go time.GO HARD OR GO HOME! If i was this dude i would hit the studio so hard and create a song to make babies to for the next ten decades! lol What ya”ll think?

*—————*

NEXT! YEaH Chilli from TLC is getting her own dating reality show!

Who else is geeked? She was always a fav!!! Our girl says there will be no kissing on the mouth, more than just black guys, and lost of nice menZ to look at! Can’t wait!

Who else woke up on cloud nine? GOD has been so SuPerB to me today I can hardly wait for u guys to come in and start chattin it up! Lay down, come out the heat, and chillax! i’M exhausted from the early day but before i Knock out for my afternoon nap get comfy and … LET’S BEGIN SHALL WE?!!!

FIRST UP! Today is the day we lost hip hops princess, Aaliyah, and I can hardly believe it’s been eight years! Such a beautiful talent, role model, and women they just don’t make them like her anymore! Withthat said I wanted to pay tribute to her and the legacy she left in our lives and in the industry. Feel free to press play and set the mood for today’s post with one of my fav Aaliyah songs and fav pics of the r&b beauty!

*Sidenote: I had a crush on this dude in 6th grade and played this song on repeat for a week! LOL*

Make sure you pray for her family and friends today and everyday! We will forever cherish her music and her memory!:)

*————————*

NEXT! So the news about Nelly and Ashanti breaking up is LATE to me!

I actually heard about the spilt while visiting NEw York in June from Nelly’s close friend. BUT the twist to the story is Melissa Ford has been accused of coming between the two.

Needless to say Melissa is pissed about the allegations and went HAM on Twitter last week when she got wind of the news surrounding her and her role in the breakup. CHECK OUT WHAT SHE HAD TO SAY IN HER OWN DEFENSE—>

“NO! I am NOT The “Jessica Rabbit” that is rumored to have broken Nelly&Ashanti up! That’s some reality show chick who’s making my life hell! These f*cking blogsdisgust me! And everyone takes what they say as if it was a verse in a Bible!!!! IT’S NOT ME! How seriously is a nick name taken? Obviously a lot since this chick from Real Chance at Love is using the name and now I have the problems!Why do I need to be woken up with this BULLSH*T??? Why do I have to field the calls from media? I was just minding my own damn business!And before any SMART ASS hits me up and says “Well this is the life you chose…” SAVE IT! That is the most ignorant statementever.There are some boundaries that shouldn’t be crossed… There are rules witheverything, even in war, they’re called Rules of Engagement.It’s abt SELF PRESERVATION! It’s nt a hater issue, its bad news reporting, NO F*CKING FACT CHECKING! its annoying!”

Somebody go into my bar and get my girl a drink! On the rocks, no chaser, and something strong! You heard the lady she ain’t do it! Proceed with caution when you enter the rumor mill as you can see things can get nasty!

*———————————-*

NEXT!!! Calling all Project Runway fans reaaallll quick! So do ya”ll remember Michael Knight from more than a few seasons ago?
