DMX is Free

DMX was released from the Maricopa County Jail in Arizona last week. I’m quite surprised that I haven’t learned of any arrests of him for anything yet. And that’s a big emphasis on the “yet”.

Rapper DMX to celebrate Christmas in Arizona jail

Surely for anyone to spend Christmas locked up in a cell in the confines of a jail is probably the worst way to spend Christmas and obviously there is nothing to celebrate about it too.

DMX is in trooouble. Again.

And I’m ALMOST getting tired of hearing about it. Is he that pathetic?
The rapper just failed to appear in a court in Arizona to face drug, identity theft, and animal cruelty charges.
Stupid!
So now there’s a warrant out for his arrest.

As previously mentioned, Boy George met Carlsen online and held [...]

Too late Raffaello, TOO LATE.

Anne Hathaway’s con-man ex-boyfriend Raffaello Follieri is seeking leniency in his federal case for conspiracy and wire fraud.

They urged the judge Thursday to impose the more [...]
