Ooh Did That Just Pop?!

Chris Brown apologized for his gay slur the other day. Of course he did what every celebrity does, go on Twitter. It was just a few days ago when Chris Brown went off on a few photographers and quote "Yall niggas is gay!" Okay Riley!
 I'm pretty sure Brown didn't mean any harm but he now realizes that words can be powerful. He is just the latest celebrity in hot water for using homophobic slurs. Even though he apologized, he should definitely be put on blast, so others can know that it is not cool at all. Chris Brown is still a role model to many kids & a Twitter apology doesn't make up for it. I just hope he really meant it this time.

In surprising news, 50 cent will be releasing a anti-bullying book. Yes, 50 cent is releasing an anti-bullying book! I just had to repeat it because that is how I read it. I was a little taken back by this but I guess 50 is growing up. The book will be called Playground & focus on a kid who is a bully & then realizes his abuse on others. This will not be a children's book but mainly focused on the young adults. I'm glad there are Hip Hop artists speaking on a big issue in schools & neighborhoods. Hopefully some of the kids actually read it!

Missy Elliot has been out of the scene for a while. I was just thinking when is the MC's new album going to drop? Hopefully soon. In the meantime, Missy has announced she has Graves Disease. Graves Disease affects the nerves & thyroid. She talks about losing weight because of the disease but living a much healthier life because of it. Missy Elliot will be featured in VH1's Behind The Music on June 29th. Good to know Missy is doing great, we need you back on the scene Missy!
