Monday Memo
"Diary of a Wimpy Kid 2: Rodrick Rules" ruled the weekend box office earning over $24 million dollars. "Sucker Punch", "Limitless", "The Lincoln Lawyer" and "Rango" round out the top five films of the week. Sad news out of New York City. DJ Megatron, known as the hype man on BET's "106 & Park", was shot to death over the weekend. His manager stated that he was shot while on the way to a store near his home. No suspects have been found. Rapper Rick Ross was arrested for marijuana possession in Louisiana over the weekend. Hotel officials stated they smelled marijuana. When they went to investigate with authorities, they discovered a gram of marijuana in plain view. No word on a trial date. Star Jones appeared on the "Wendy Williams Show" to promote her new book and reportedly took a shot at "Apprentice" co-star NeNe Leakes. The two have been sparring with one another for some time now. Rapper Foxy Brown and morning show host Tom Joyner are not likely to remain friends after Brown was reportedly kicked off Joyner's Fantastic Voyage cruise. Brown took to twitter to let it be known how she felt about the matter. No word from Joyner. Lisa Raye will return to TV One with her reality show "The Real McCoy" on April 7. Another reality show hitting air waves soon will be "Braxton Family Values", which will star singer Toni Braxton and her four younger sisters. The competition continues on ABC's "Dancing With The Stars". The contestants are all over their jitters now that the season is underway. Twenty-five years on the air, and now it's time to wrap it up. Harpo Productions confirmed that the final episode of "The Oprah Winfrey Show" will air May 25. Winfrey took to twitter to make the announcement. The show has been in reruns, with new episodes to air beginning on April 7. There will be no rest for the weary after May 25, however. Ms Winfrey still has her own cable network, "The Oprah Winfrey Network" to run. Director Zach Snyder has confirmed that actress Amy Adams will play Lois Lane in the reboot of "Superman". She will join Kevin Costner, Diane Lane and Henry Cavill in the Warner Bros. film. No word on a release date. On the tube: "House" on Fox, "How I Met Your Mother" on CBS, "Dancing With The Stars" on ABC and "All Together Now: A Celebration Of Service" on NBC. Happy Monday!
