January 2013

One of my favorite couples may be headed for divorce court. I check for La La Anthony on Twitter and Instagram (yeah I admit it) and noticed that she was tweeting less about being at the games cheering her man Carmelo Anthony on and more about her career. Then what really got my attention was on NYE, when the reality star hosted a party in Miami and Melo was nowhere to be found—neither was her wedding ring.

Rumor has it the couple have been separated since last year and they still go out in public together to keep up appearances for the sake of their careers and adorable son Kiyan.

But if you watched the Knicks vs. Celtics game last night, you saw Melo get so heated with Celtics star Kevin Garnett that he waited for KG at the Celtics team bus. Everyone wondered what set Melo off, and today I’m finding out that KG allegedly said La La, “tastes like Honey Nut Cheerios,” according to Black Sports Online.

I’m not one for violence, but what man is going to sit around and let someone disrespect their wife, regardless if they’re together or not?

Take a look at what went down last night:

Translation CEO Steve Stoute shook up the ad world when his 8-year-old company scored the Bud Light account from competitor McGarry Bowen. Stoute’s Bud Light work will appear in this year’s Super Bowl, showcasing Translation as a force to be reckoned with.

Stoute, who has managed Mary J. Blige and Nas, has been widely credited for the marketing genius behind Lady Gaga and Jay-Z’s success. The entrepreneur and author sat down with Business Insider to discuss his business savvy along with the 1999 altercation he got into with Sean “P.Diddy” Combs.” Combs barged into Stoute’s offices and struck him with a champagne bottle for not editing out him being nailed to the cross in Nas’ “Hate Me Now” video.

“We got in a fight when we were kids, and it’s funny that it still comes up, years later. We were millionaires at 26 years old.”

Stoute also broke down why so many athletes and entertainers go broke.

“That’s [something] that people put on athletes, or rappers, and primarily African-American overnight millionaires…But the truth of the matter is, when you grow up in life and you’re poor, and because you’re an athlete or you got rich overnight in music, unless you have access to financial advice or for the transition or matriculation of that process, then of course, you’re going to go broke.”

“You think Jay-Z is going broke? LeBron is going broke? These guys have figured it out. They came from a poor backgrounds, broken homes and they figured out how to be businessmen. They become new aspirations. People say they want to do it like that. So you can be talented, and handle your business, and be married, and have a stable family. You don’t have to be this single parent guy running around at 40 years old. There’s a lot of circumstances where people can now see an archetype and have people they want to follow. If those archetypes weren’t there, there’s nothing necessarily to aspire to.”
