Ooh! Did That Just Pop?! Vol. 7

Some week it was, I kept losing track on who was going to rehab. T.V. was beyond addicting this week, I got so behind on my homework. I really need to start coldturkey & not watch anything for a week, but I don't think my body is strong enough for that. So instead I get caught up in stories like these.

It was a busy week for some celebs trying to get clean, even if it means going public with it as well. With our girl Whitney back in rehab, Oscar De La Hoya checked in this past week as well. Yes, the golden boy has checked into rehab on Tuesday the 24th. The boxing champ was supposedly addicted to drinking & cocaine. What a shame. It saddens me when athletes go to a low like this. He should know the risks invovled but also that he is on a different platform than most celebrities. Oscar isn't just some celebrity, he is an iconic figure in the boxing world & a role model to many. I hope he gets the chance to get his stuff together.

Also checking into rehab this week is our friend Amy Winehouse. While many seem to not be surprised by this, I am. I was under the impression that she was getting her self together. After that very public breakup with her ex & her father taking over total control of her well being. I thought she was on the good road to recovery. It is reported that her father convinced her to check in before she goes on tour this summer. Amy is scheduled to go on tour this summer before the release of her much anticipated follow up album to Back To Black. Good luck Amy!

For those that have always been looking past & over Ms. Kelly Rowland, shame on you. Ms. Rowland has always been compared to her friend Beyonce but Kelly has been standing on her own for quite some time. Kelly has just snatched the No.1 spot on the R&B/Hip Hop charts for her hit Motivation feat. Lil' Wayne. I like this song because it has a nice groove to hit & the lyrics are perfect on Kelly's & Wayne's verses. The video is really hot as well. Kelly's album is dropping her album this summer. Kelly also has a new job as a judge on the TV series X Factor U.K. Version. Go ahead Ms. Rowland! Check out her sexy video! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s1XozsBN5Z4

Well, as I mentioned in the previous posts, Mariah was in some hot water for supposedly drinking beer while breastfeeding. This let to a tip from an anonymous source to the Child Protective Services of Los Angeles. As of yesterday, the claim was dropped & after a small investigation, CPS found the children to be in a very safe environment. Seems like Mariah & Nick needs to be careful with the company they keep around them. Looks like someone was trying to get a quick buck. Good to know the kids are safe.

I'm very excited for the new Mary J. Blige album. I've always been a huge Mary J. Blige fan & she will be releasing her tenth studio album this fall titled My Life Too, The Journey Continues on September 20th. This album should be hot! Mary's lead off single Someone To Love Me feat. Lil' Wayne if fire! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yOGTb9yDsR0 .

Mary is also working on several projects with the biopic of Nina Simone titled Nina, & also a best of both worlds album with Lil' Kim. Mary always seems to stay on top of the game, showing the young ones how it's done.
