Okay I had to put this actress on blast for having the boldness to rock this hot mess of a dress at the Cannes Film Festival:
French actress Firmine Richard arrives for the screening of the film "Zodiac," at the 60th International film festival in Cannes, southern France, on Thursday, May 17, 2007.
[pic source] Overheard Hoopla: 1. Contrary to the rumors out there, Andre Benjamin of Outkast is NOT dating Buckeey from "Flavor of Love 2", folks! (I was beginning to wonder how Andre went from the dating the likes of R&B singers Eryah Badu and Keisha Spivey to a reality-TV star.} [A Hot Mess] 2. Speaking of R&B do we really need another R&B male group? Well Tank, Tyrese and Ginuwine think so. TGT will be the name of this supergroup. Word has it these guys are teaming up to produce the ultimate male R&B group since LSG. Be expected to hear a remix to Tank's Please Don't Go with Tyrese and Ginuwine. (I'm just excited to learn Ginuwine's coming back to music.) [MTV News] 3. Alongside soul legend Patti LaBelle, R&B singer Ciara will be starring in her fist lead role on the big screen. [SOHH] 4. The Fugees breaks up once again due to Lauryn Hill according to Pras: “You know, unfortunately Miss Hill, she got some things she needs to deal with. I wish her the best, but life goes on.” Okay time for me to pop in my jacked up copy of "The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill" to hold me over until the Fugees come back again. DAMN!

Favorite line from John Legen's P.D.A We Just Don't Care:"I don't care about propriety / Let's break the rules / Forget society."
From MIMI Okay so I admit I never heard about this artist until today when I finally caught '106 & Park' last night. His single is currently on the 7th spot on the urban countdown. At first I thought he was Rich Boy. (No disrespect to Rich Boy fans.)
[shout out to Roberto for the links!] Look out for his debut record, 'Music is My Savior' to drop April 3rd.
MIMS on what to expect from his music: "As an artist I want people to expect the unexpected," he says. "Don't think for one minute that I am going to come this way all the time. You'll hear one record and go wild - 'Wow. He did that?' I want people to listen to the album and expect the unexpected because this is only the beginning. It is going to get better than this."
