Too Soon? 50 Cent Makes Waves With Tsunami Jokes on Twitter

We suppose you can give 50 Cent credit for trying to lighten the mood, but it was still a little soon for Japanese earthquake/Tsunami humor, most likely.

Eminem Chrysler 200 Super Bowl Commercial: Imported From Detroit

Hyped as Super Bowl commercials may be, most are gimmicky and quite forgettable. Chrysler’s effort featuring the Motor City’s own Eminem was anything but.

Two minutes of gritty footage set to the rapper’s “Lose Yourself” served as both an homage to Detroit’s past and a look to the future in introducing the Chrysler 200.

Moving doesn’t usually describe ads during football, but it sure applies here as the iconic American brand – and city – defiantly picks itself up off the mat.

With an assist from Eminem and a gospel choir, this is a bad ass commercial …

Chelsea Handler and 50 Cent: In Bed!

T.I. Won’t Be Charged In Drug Arrest

T.I. and his wife were arrested on September 1 for the “possession of a controlled substance” and now we’ve learned that T.I. will not be charged in that arrest.

According to TMZ the D.A.’s Office:

[is] not going forward with charges because, in essence, he’s already been sentenced to prison since the arrest was a violation of his federal probation.

Law enforcement says there were simply too many probable cause issues during the arrest. For example, police officers on the scene claimed to have smelled pot in the vehicle, but no marijuana was booked into evidence. Also T.I. was removed

Beyonce: Pregnant For Real This Time?

Beyonce Knowles is pregnant with her first child.

According to Us Weekly, at least, and while we’ve heard this before – and it’s been wrong before – the magazine seems sure about it … whatever that’s worth.

No one was more stunned than Beyonce herself, apparently: “B was shocked. She loves kids, but she wasn’t ready to be a mother just yet,” says a source.

Congratulations, we think, to Jay-Z and Beyonce!

“She really wanted to get her album done and tour again,” adds the source, but she realizes, of course, that “this is a gift from God and she’s so happy.”

“Jay has been all about family

Petey Pablo Popped For Packing Heat

Rapper and alleged airport gun smuggler Petey Pablo has turned himself in.

A federal judge issued a warrant for Petey for that whole “bringing a gun to an airport on 9/11″ thing. Crazy why they make rules against that, right?

Sources close to the rapper say that he immediately made plans to cooperate with authorities upon learning about his situation and the warrant involved.

Pablo was in custody for only a few hours yesterday, before being released on his own recognizance. He must now report to a U.S. probation officer.
