Wednesday Roundup

A source has told E News that the death of singer Whitney Houston has been ruled accidental. It's been determined that the singer died of no fault of anyone and a toxicology report may be available next week. In other Whitney Houston news, reportedly the film "Sparkle", which she had finished filming before he tragic death, is being heavily guarded to prevent any scenes from being leaked. The film will be released in August as scheduled. Another Whitney Houston rumor swirling is that singer Rihanna may play the singer in a biopic. Representatives say the rumor is false. A Miami judge has filed charges against singer Chris Brown in connection with an incident where the singer snatched a cell phone from a fan when she snapped his picture as he was leaving a Miami club. One of the potential charges could be snatch and grab. If convicted, Brown faces five years in prison. Bizarre of the Eminem backed Detroit rap group D12 announced during an interview with HipHopDX that he's left the group. He said it was creative differences and he believes it's time for him to branch out on his own. He also mentioned he's started a group of his own called FaygosandConey. The group will reportedly include Fury and Sonny Bonoho. He says it's the weirdo movement, letting people know it's fine to different. His debut album, "This Guy's A Weirdo" will hit store shelves on March 28. Believe that model Amber Rose knows what she's doing. Boyfriend Wiz Khalifa reportedly earns a staggering 100,000 per show, and according to Forbes magazine, the figure could double by the end of the year. He's certainly making waves in the industry. Miami Gardens police officers want to talk to rapper Rick Ross. He's not in any trouble at the moment, the police just want to question the Maybach Music CEO about a 40-year-old man who was found shot to death outside of Ross's Miami home. The man's body was found on the ground inside the gate toward the front of Ross's property. Officials say Ross was not home at the time, and have no idea if Ross has any connection to the murder of the man himself. So far, no comment from Ross. It's that time of year again.
