Tuesday Tales
More legal trouble for singer Chris Brown. A judge has revoked his probation after he reportedly left the scene of a fender bender some time ago. While Brown remains free, if convicted, he could face up to four years in prison. Brown tweeted about the court proceedings saying he did what he was supposed to do at the time of the incident. Rapper Jay Z is finally opening up about his beef with producer Timbaland. Jay says when the two collaborated some time back Timbaland wasn't as focused. Timbaland now agrees. Guess all is well now. In other Jay Z news, the rapper has received his first No. 1 album in the UK with "Magna Carta Holy Grail". Just in time for the European leg o his upcoming tour. Rapper Lil Wayne is now apologizing to the family of slain teenager Emmett Till. Some time back the Young Money Entertainment CEO received backlash over his verse on fellow rapper Future's single "Karate Chop". The Till family lashed out at Wayne over the offensive lyrics. During a recent concert, Wayne performed the song, but replaced his distasteful lyrics with an apology. Emmett Till was a 14-year-old Black teen from Chicago who upon visiting relatives in Money Mississippi was abducted, tortured and thrown in a river by two white men for allegedly whistling at a white woman. His body was discovered three days later. The teens mother refused a closed casket , letting the world see her son's mangled and unrecognizable face. His murders were acquitted of all charges after the jury deliberated for just over an hour. ABC's "The View" co-host Barbara Walters confirmed that actress Jenny McCarthy will join the show. Although when it will be made official hasn't been confirmed, it should make for interesting conversation between the ladies. Chris Brown and Pusha T have new music in stores this week. On DVD: "Evil Dead". On the tube: "2013 MLB All Star Game Live" on Fox, "NCIS" on CBS, "Extreme Weight Loss" on ABC and "Hollywood Game Night" on NBC. Happy Tuesday!
