Wednesday Roundup
Singer Chris Brown had a mishap with a Rolex watch recently. As he was performing, he intended to toss the watch to the side of the stage, but tossed it out into the crowd instead. The watch was returned. In other Chris Brown news, actress Lindsay Lohan reportedly took to her Twitter account to arrange a date with the singer. Brown declined. Singer Beyonce confirmed that her pregnancy will not stop her upcoming appearance at the Michael Jackson tribute concert on October 8. As most know, the singer made the announcement at the MTV Awards. Some reports said rapper T.I. would be released from prison today, but a spokesperson says that's not so. The rapper will be released on next month. Hopefully soon, he'll get back to doing what he does best, making good music. Singer Johnny Gill has settled a suit filed against him by a executive at his label. Ira DeWitt filed suit against the singer for making defamatory statements about her on Twitter. The conflict between the two began when a song from Gill's still unreleased album was leaked over the internet. He accused Mrs DeWitt of leaking the song by saying it wasn't his CD. At any rate, the two have resolved the conflict between them and are ready to continue their business relationship. It's been a crazy couple of weeks for Compton rapper Game. First he tweeted the phone number of the Compton sheriffs department to his tens of thousands of Twitter followers resulting in jammed phone lines, now he after talking with police after being accused of punching a man in face outside a Hollywood nightclub, it appears he won't face charges. The west coast rapper was accused of punching a man in the face outside Colony night club in west Hollywood. The rapper insisted he didn't hit anyone, and video of the incident backs up his claim. The MC met with Los Angeles police regarding the matter and after reviewing the footage, authorities have decided not to press charges against him. New reports say photographer Breyon Williams spat on the rapper, resulting in the violent confrontation. Williams denies this new accusation and the matter has been turned over to the City Attorney for final review. Stay tuned.
