Wednesday Roundup

There's a warrant out for the arrest of Christopher "Kid" Reid. He was a no show at a progress hearing recently. Fans will recall that the rapper was arrested some time back for DUI. At the time of the arrest, he was ordered to among other things, attend alochol counseling. There's no word on the amount of jail time he could receive. Model Amber Rose has released a new single, in addition, she's apologized for calling Kim Kardashian a home wrecker during her time with Kanye West. For those who'd like to know, the new single does include an appearance by beau Wiz Khalifa. As most fans know, Khloe Kardashian has different features than her siblings, Kourtney, Kim and Rob. Now, it's been reported that the reality star's late father Robert questioned his paternity, since he was not having sex with his then wife Kris. Khloe's height, curly hair, and different look from her siblings caused her to become suspicious about the paternity of the man she's known as her father. Only time will tell what will transpire next. The animal rights organization PETA isn't too pleased with rapper/producer Dr Dre. The good Dr has entered a partnership with fashion designer Oscar De La Renta to create a limited edition version of his pricey headphones. The headphones, which cost $695, are lined with luxe silver fox fur. PETA, of course, didn't take kindly to the idea and sent a letter to the entrepreneur and De La Renta asking that they reconsider. Dr Dre, so far, has not responded to PETA's open letter. Former Bad Boy artist Loon will remain in a Brussells prison a little longer. The rapper was arrested in Belgium after being caught at the Brussells airport on his way to give a lecture at the Islamic Cultural Center of Belgium and charged with trafficking heroin to the U.S. His lawyer is at press time attempting to appeal the decision in Supreme Court. Officials reportedly used the Patriot Act to bring him back to the states, as he has now converted to Islam and now lives in Algeria with his family. The United States has not yet seen extradition papers. Stay tuned as t this story develops. Fans of the 90's R&B group 112 will be happy to know that although there's no word on a possible reunion, each group member is currently focusing on solo projects. Daron Jones, the group's producer, has released a new album titled "Uncensored". It's more of the great R&B fans have come to expect. Fox's "American Idol" will return for another season on January 18. The season is sure to be an exciting one as fans compete for the grand prize. Judges Steven Tyler, Jennifer Lopez and Randy Jackson will all return when the season begins. Another season of ABC's "The Bachelor" has begun as yet another gentlemen looks for his lady love. The new season is sure to be full of surprises and enough drama to keep fans glued to their televisions.  Be sure to catch the film "Contraband " when it hits theaters this weekend. The film stars Mark Wahlberg appears to be full of the action the star has become known for. On the tube: "Mobbed" on Fox, "Criminal Minds" on CBS, "The Middle" on ABC and "Whitney" on NBC. Happy hump day!
