Alicia Keys & Jeff Robinson Updated Story!

The New York Post wrote a story last week which claimed that Alicia Keys had been ripped off by her manager of 15 years, Jeff Robinson. The paper's sources claimed that Robinsojn had been taking 25% commission and above 33% during the early stages of her career, when the norm is between 15 - 20%. The source said: “Swizz Beatz definitely played a huge part in killing him off. She got smart after years of people around her telling her she was crazy to let this continue to happen.” But apparently Keys's reps have said that the story has no truth in it. They said: “That story is 100% false. Jeff Robinson was like a father figure to Alicia Keys. They never had a contract. It was a huge deal because Jeff loves her like she was his own kid! This whole article reeks of damage control and its obvious. How can you rip someone off when you don’t have a contract and they can walk away whenever they want?” Her fiance, producer Swizz Beatz, has also been blamed for the end of Robinson's relationship with Keys and has now assumed the role of her manager. But Swizz Beatz has denied this and said that the rumours are "not true". Beatz said: “I don’t have time to fire anybody. I’m super busy working on a million things. People must accept change and move on.”

WOW! I've been awaiting more information about this story. This is crazy!

'Real Housewives of D.C.'

The Real Housewives of Washington, D.C. is a reality television program scheduled to debut on the Bravo network Thursday, August 5, 2010.

I'm looking forward to this show. Since D.C is my city...lol!

Judge Match "American Idol" is hiring.

The show lost two judges last week: Ellen DeGeneres, who left of her own accord, and Kara DioGuardi, who TMZ.com says was shown the door. That's three opening on the four person panel, as Simon Cowell has already left the franchise. But it's still the one of the nation's most popular shows, which means it should set its sights on top-tier talent.

I wonder who's the next judges???? Bill Clinton maybe or Kanye West or 0prah? What you guys think???????

"Coincidences"

There are events in your life that so extraordinary and so unlikely, that they can't be chalked up to chance alone. Like when you think about a friend you haven't talked to in 10 years and...bam!-out of the blue, he or she phones you. Or when you're struggling to find the solution to a problem and...bam!-you pick up the paper click on the TV and there it is the answer. Whenever events like this occur, I see them now as Divine Guidance. A cosmic reminder of a Higher Power. Evidence that God is always watching us, steering us, sending us messages. I have heard scientist and scholars have all kinds terms for these events. Synchronicity. Fortuity. Happenstance. I don't have some Fancy name for it. Sixty-dollar words aren't my style. But, I do have an explanation. "Coincidences" are the everyday miracles of our lives. Everyday blessings. "Coincidences" are just God's way of staying invisible...much Peace ~Bruce Avery~

I had such a great day today. I had to vent in a good way. I'm done for today guys good-nite...much Luv!
