As per TMZ, Michael Jackson’s 13-year-old football playing daughter is being recruited to be the face of an organization that swears it’s helping break down barriers for women … problem is, it’s the Lingerie Football League.

TMZ has learned .. the LFL took notice when Paris Jackson became the first female in her L.A. private school to join the flag football team earlier this month … and fired off a letter to the MJ Estate in the hopes PJ would be the spokesperson for the league’s “youth program.”

In the letter, obtained by TMZ, LFL Commissioner Mitchell S. Mortaza acknowledges a “lack of options for competitive female football” … and says the league will “be introducing youth clinics across the country to introduce the game of football to young ladies at an earlier stage in life.”

Mortaza adds, “We … would like to invite Paris to become the spokesperson for the LFL’s youth program and perhaps start training for a future football career in the LFL when she reaches the age of 18.”


According to MTV Taylor Swift is a T.I fan. Taylor Swift: “I’m a huge hip-hop fan,  (T.I. is my favorite) and it’s been so amazing to have so many incredible artists come out and to get to sing the hooks on their songs that I’ve been blasting in my car for the last couple years,” Swift explained in an interview. “It’s been awesome. I couldn’t have asked for more amazing special guests on this tour, and we’re not finished yet.”

I’m totally not buying! Swift gets a major side eye from LadySteele….


As per SOHH and AllHipHop.com Dj Khalid gave us an update on Rick Ross who made headlines last week after suffering 2 seizures a couple of hours apart. DJ Khaled: “I am not leaving Rick’s side. He is resting, he is chilling and he is actually super focused. He is at the crib and is going to rest and just chill until he gets his energy back. He is going to take everything one day by day,” Khaled told Simmons. “I told him he has to stay home for two weeks. I told him he has got to just chill and reIax. I told him he is a big enough star that he can just stay home. His life is more important…When he went in the hospital that was a reality check. I’m trying to tell him, but he’s telling me, ‘Khaled you ain’t got to tell me no more, I understand clearly I got to take my life seriously.’”

RIP to a Boss!  Apple Co-Founder Steve Jobs passed away last night at 56. Jobs succumbed to a long battle with pancreatic cancer. He leaves behind a revolutionary legacy and changed the way we live our daily lives. For those unfamiliar with the importance of his work, check this out: http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2011/08/24/technology/steve-jobs-patents.html

“There may be no greater tribute to Steve’s success than fact that much of world learned of his passing on a device he invented.” via POTUS Obama

RIP Steve

In other sad news we also lost Fred Shuttlesworth a Civil rights Icon.

As a preacher and civil rights activist Fred has survived beatings, water hose and bombings even receiving severe chest injuries as a result of his refusal to back down from the good fight. I wish we as a people were as strong as our predecessors, for more on his story click here:  http://www.politico.com/news/stories/1011/65268.html May he truly RIP

According to VladTV Luke Campbell is calling out some major hip-hop heads. “I’ve got a message for Lil Wayne, his Cash Money Brothers, DJ Khaled, Puff Daddy and all the rappers from other parts of the country who now live in Miami,” he wrote October 4th. “I’m tired of seeing these cats using up our beaches, soaking up our sunshine, taking over the night clubs, and sleeping with our women without investing anything into the community. There used to be a day when out of town rappers were scared to throw their weight around Miami. It didn’t matter if they were coming from New York or Los Angeles, they knew better than to act like they owned this mother f*cker.”

Jay Z is quoted as saying  ”J. Cole’s success is testament to amazing artist development and Cole’s hard work,” Jay-Z said, via a press release. “I want to congratulate him on a #1 album and more importantly a great body of work.” Cole’s first solo album (Cole World), which he’s been meticulously working on for the past five years, has sold 218,000 copies according to Nielsen Sound Scan.

Justin Bieber has announced via twitter that Mariah Carey is the special secret guest on his Christmas album and the pair will duet on her single ‘All I Want For Christmas.’
