Ms Ray's Vacation spots

COUPLES!

Sometimes I just feel like talking about people. Whether A or B-list, we see celeb couples in the media all the time, and regardless, we all have something to say. Well, I just feel like doing a little bit of the bumping of the gums tonight.

Nick Cannon with Victoria Secret Model "Whatever-her-name-is"

BooOO! Nick Cannon Sucks to me!
He reminds me of someone annoying that I had a class with in college, and for some reason cute girls took him attractive. He would have definitely been an Alpha. No offense to my FRAT!

Omarion and J-Hud
Not a couple as in relationship, but just coupled in the photo

This pic is funny just because J-Hud's Boob is sitting on O's shoulder, which further lets me know how short he really is. J-hud aint but 5'5". And why does Omarion look like he got dressed to go to his little cousin's graduation dinner?

India Arie and Chris Tucker

It's something mysterious and weird going on with Chris Tucker. I can't quite figure him out. Is he straight, gay, what! The rumor is is that he and India are dating, UUGH! I like India (I'm lying). I just don't feel her style. What's up with the old Gucci Pouch?

Usher and Tameka (his stylist) I want to be happy for her, just because she's in the money. Not to sound like a gold-digger, but who else would date a man who has admittedly hung out at a gay club. Usher is very talented, but also kinda "how you doin?"


Kristen Davis of Sex and the City and Rick Fox (NBA Star)

This is a stupid couple. They both could do better! Rick Fox has such a big head and chin. And Kristen is so ordinary. I never understood why women loved him so much! Rick would have definitely been a Kappa!

Tracy McGrady and his wifeI'm feeling the chinchilla collar but his wife looks like "Summer time in the City"!

Naomi Campbell and Terrence Howard Yes it's true, Terrence and Naomi are dating. My reliable sources (other Blogs) have told me that they have been spotted all over the red carpet and will in fact accompany each other at the Oscars. I thought he was a little confused too, but he found Naomi. Maybe she could bust him in the head a few times to make him act right!

Isiah Washington with Wife (I don't know her name off the top of my head)A great couple. I never have anything negative to say about these two, but can she not looks so damn matronly all the time. I would guess she's in her early forties, but she does not have dress like she's Barbara Walters

Tyson with Random modelI can tell that this pic is from the back stage of a fashion show, therefore, I'ma let him make it with this ridiculous ensemble. But this pic further lets me know how gay he is!

The Dumbest Toys!! ... Very Dumb

Pussycat Dolls

Customers who bought the Peekaboo Pole Dancing Kit and the I-Tattoo probably would've been clueless enough to buy this one too...

To compete with the spectacularly successful Bratz doll phenomenon, Hasbro unveils plans to launch the Pussycat Dolls, aimed at girls as young as 8 years old and modeled after the risqué, burlesque-inspired pop group of the same name.
(Yes, the "Don't cha wish your girlfriend was a freak like me" Pussycat Dolls.)
After protests by parent groups, Hasbro nixes the line.






I-Tattoo,

Toymaker Spin Master releases the I-Tattoo, a $15 kit for kids ages 6 and up that features a "realistic, vibrating tattoo pen" and instructs youngsters to "get ready to 'get inked.'"Amazingly the people who

Customers who bought the Peekaboo Pole Dancing Kit also purchased this item.

Peekaboo pole-dancing kit.

"Unleash the sex kitten inside" is the message to youngsters with the Peekaboo pole-dancing kit." It contains a chrome pole, a DVD with suggested dance moves, and a 'sexy dance garter' - all formerly in the toys and games section of the Tesco website. 8.5 foot chrome pole with play money for stuffing into a garter. Parent groups agreed to remove the Items from the toy shelves. This is so distasteful, They are recruiting so soon.

Sports: NBA All Star Weekend is for "Hip Hop Hoodlums"

According to a recent article at AOL Sports, the NBA All-Star Weekend was a complete flop and very dangerous. The author of this article seems to have a lot of anger in his heart!

The game is a sloppy, boring, half-hearted mess. The dunk contest is contrived and pointless. The celebrity contest is unintended comedy. And, worst of all, All-Star Weekend revelers have transformed the league's midseason exhibition into the new millennium Freaknik, an out-of-control street party that features gunplay, violence, non-stop weed smoke and general mayhem...

David Stern seriously needs to consider moving the event out of the country for the next couple of years in hopes that young, hip-hop hoodlums would find another event to terrorize. Taking the game to Canada won't do it. The game needs to be moved overseas, someplace where the Bloods and Crips and hookers and hoes can't get to it without a passport and plane ticket...

After this weekend, I'm convinced he's losing the battle. All-Star Weekend Vegas screamed that the NBA is aligned too closely with thugs. Stern is going to have to take drastic measures to break that perception/reality. All-Star Weekend can no longer remain the Woodstock for parolees, wannabe rap artists and baby's mamas on tax-refund vacations. full story

OK!? So there were a few bad apples in the whole bunch! It was pretty hectic out there but, did he have to say "baby's mama's?" There are actually some "baby's mama's" in the world doing respectable things. All Star weekend would be pretty classy overseas though...tell me what u think?
