Last week Kanye West rolled up to the amFar Cinema Against Aids event in Cannes, driving a McLaren Mercedes SLR Stirling Moss car. The car is reportedly worth 1.7 million dollars, and there were only about 75 cars made worldwide. Now that is the true definition of BALLIN.
According to numerous news outlets like the Today Show and USA Today, Kanye West is amongst the guests expected to attend Prince William and Kates wedding extravaganza. This was quite surprising to us but, we sure are excited to see what Kanyes going to be wearing!
On another note, rumor has it that Kim Kardashian is trying her hardest to accompany Kanye to the event. What a shocker!
What do you guys think about Kanye attending the wedding?
Fans got quite a surprise on American Idol last night when Kayne West joined Katy Perry on stage, while she performed her hit single 'ET'. Check out the performance below.
Tomorrow Katy Perry will premiere her brand new video for mega-hit single 'ET', and she has given her fans an exclusive look at images from the shoot. The images portray futuristic snapshots of the diva, and it looks like Mr. West is in the building, being there's a snapshot of the rapper. Check out the pictures below.
Check out a one minute snippet of the new video, and make sure to check out the premiere on MTV tomorrow night.
The other day, Amber Rose was on Foxxhole Radio promoting her new radio show, which will air on the same station. When asked whether or not her and former boyfriend Kanye West would get back together she stated...
No, I don’t think so. You know in every relationship you have problems and you try to work through and then sometimes things don’t work out. But it was very real for me. I was very much in love. I was with him for two years. We lived together, we traveled the world together, we had a lot of fun together. A lot of really cool moments…I was the ill bitch to a rock star.
After her statement, one of the co-host argued that she achieved fame solely through Kanye, and the fact that she claimed to have slept with numerous women. She responded by dissing Kanye's ex fiance.
"I never wanted to be famous it just happened to me. I literally was with someone that I loved very much and we were out people would say “Kanye I love you but can you snap a picture of me and Amber Real quick?”
"Me and Kanye were in a very committed relationship. When I was out with Kanye, I became famous. He was with a girl for six years that he was going to marry. What’s her name again??"
During tonight's All-Star game, Drake joined Rihanna in performing "What's My Name" at halftime. Later, Kanye joined her to perform "All Of The Lights". Peep the video below.
Mr. Kanye West tweeted about his new single H.A.M. reaching #2 on the Itunes chart, but he couldn't resist poking fun at himself a bit, and decided to tweet to Britney Spears who holds the #1 position.
"Yo Britney, I'm really happy for you and I'mma let you be #1, but me and Jay-Z's single is one of the best songs of all time! LOL,"
Later Kanye removed the tweet, however Britney's manager quickly responded.
"Thanks for 'letting' us be #1,Much appreciated!"
Kanye later tweeted this to his fans.
"On a serious note I'm truly happy for AvrilLavigne and Britney Spears. No hate in 2011...I thought LOL signified a joke."
So many gossip sites are now claiming that there is a beef between Kanye, and Britney. I find this so ridiculous, because Kanye made it obvious that he was joking. People need to stop making everything so dramatic. I'm sure Ms. Spears doesn't give a shit about any of this.
Nicki Minaj is coming out with a new music video for her latest single "Moment For Life", & it looks like Drake is her leading man. Here a few snapshots from the shoot provided by Hip Hop Connection.
I actually think these two would be cute together.
Mr. West was on set for his "All of The Lights" music video & Hollywood Life caught a preview of the taping.
Coldplay performed with Jay Z on NYE in the Las Vegas, in The Marquee Nightclub at The Cosmopolitan. Jay Z was reportedly paid 1 million dollars to perform! Craziness!! Kanye West made a cameo, & Beyonce was in the crowd supporting her hubby.

Yesterday Kim Kardashian tweeted "OMG u guys have no idea what I'm doing today! You are gonna DIE!!!!" According toTMZIt turns out Kim was in the middle of a video shoot for her new single with Kanye West.
It's reported that Hype Williams is directing this video. Hype has directed videos for big time music artists like Notorious BIG, Jay Z, Nas, and now Kim K....What do ya'll think??
Kanye West dropped a new track this week for the holidays. "Christmas in Harlem" features Cam'ron, Vado, Jim Jones, CyHi Da Prynce, Pusha T, Big Sean, Teyana Taylor & Musiq.
Kanye also got into the holiday spirit, by attending the New Yorkers for Chrildren Wrap to Rap benefit at The Ainsworth. Good for him :)
Kanye West has proved that he is indeed a creative genious with the debut of his mini-movie 'Runaway'. The film is about 30 minutes long and was directed by Ye' himself. I'm really feeling the whole concept of the movie, and I give Kanye props for taking Hip Hop to a another level. Check out the video, and let us know what you think.
Chris Brown has turned his #1 hit single "Dueces" into a remix feat Drake, Kanye West, TI, Fabulous, and Andre 3000. It's pretty hot so check it out and let me know what you think
..........according to Kanye West. Yeezy was in New York, at Hot 97 radio station promoting the release of his new album Dark Twisted Fantasy. When asked who he thinks his biggest competition in the rap game is, he explained that the scariest person in the game right now is Nicki Minaj.........
He went on to explain that Nicki will grow to be the second greatest rapper of all time, next to Eminem.
"This is gonna be such a big statement, and such a big thing to fill: The scariest artist right now is definitely Nicki Minaj. I think she has the most potential to be the number-two rapper of all time. Nobody's gonna be bigger than Eminem
That sure is one big statement. Don't get me wrong Nicki's got skills, but I don't think she will touch Tupac' or Biggies status.
O no, I love Kanye West to death but I don't know if it was the best idea for him to join Twitter. We all know how passionate Yeezy gets, and sometimes he doesn't think before he speaks. Just last year Kanye went on a rant, when he found out there were people impersonating him on Twitter. He claimed he had more important things to do than join Twitter.
Well one things for sure, it will be damn interesting following the Louis Vuitton Don. Make sure you follow his Twitter page @kanyewest.
Kanye also stopped by Facebook headquarters and rapped a couple of joints from his new album. Love em!
From John and Kate marital drama to the desperate attempt at Balloon boy's parents 15 minutes of fame; it seemed to be the year to exploit your kids. What started as a wholesome family reality show about a married couple and their lives with their eight children, quickly spiraled into a media frenzy. As the show progressed, so did the paparazzi's focus. They soon exposed John's consistent whoring of numerous women and jumping from club to club; living the single life when HELLO??? You have a family?! Then you couldn't turn on the news, entertainment shows, or flip through magazines without them being plastered on the cover.
"You guys said we did this for the show." Who could forget the words spoken from 6-year old Heene [a.k.a the Balloon boy]. His parents are charged with one of the most clever, but desperate attempts at fame. The parents incited the biggest waste of police and man power when they claimed that their son was trapped aboard a giant balloon that had been released into the air. It flew across three counties and when it finally landed the boy thankfully wasn't in it. Authorities soon discovered he was hiding in the attic. It was discovered that the thing was staged in an interview with the family Thursday night on CNN's "Larry King Live." In the interview with Wolf Blitzer, filling in for King, the Heenes' asked their son why he had not come out from hiding when they called his name. And the boy replied with the above phrase. LMAO sooo funny, they probably felt so stupid. Yep they all got their fame all right, but not in the way they expected: John worst dad ever, Balloon boy's parents facing jail time and numerous fines.
9. The Kardashians
You can't deny it, they were everyone's guilty pleasure in 2009. Sex tape scandal or not, Kim Kardashian brought her fame into a whole other level with her reality show Keeping up with the Kardashians. This year was a huge year for the Kardashian family. With the start of a break-up between Kim Kardashian and Reggie Bush, to Kourtney and Khloe taking over Miami, and finding out that Kourt was preggers by the end of their trip. Then there was the infamous quickie wedding for Khloe and L.A. Laker Lamar Odom after only knowing each other for a month which led to Kim and Reggie Bush making up. And finally by the end of the year Kourtney gives birth to a precious baby boy. These Kardashians sure had everyone keeping up with them.
8. Rap Artist Drake
He went from being the kid in the wheelchair from Degrassi to the hottest rap phenomenon of 2009. He had everyone singing "Best I ever had" this summer and you couldn't turn on the radio without hearing his hits.Without an album even out yet, Drake has collaborated with many artists such as Lil Wayne, Timberland, Kanye West, Eminem, and many more. Just as Drake said it himself "Buzz so big I could probably sell a blank disc" 2009 was most def. a good year for him.
7. "Single Ladies" Craze
"All my single ladies, All my singles!" who didn't hear this phrase this year? The singles ladies craze was out of control ! The minute Ms. Beyonce and her two bootylicious backup dancers stepped out in a black and white video, you had people all over the world trying to imitate these fierce moves. Everyone from babies to the oo so sexy Justin Timberlake, and even Tom Hanks were dancing like Ms. B. We're not going lie, we even put the video on repeat a couple times too! LOL! Def. a great anthem for all those singles ladies of 2009.
6.Megan Fox
All you men know what we're talking about.....heck you ladies can feel us on this one too! Megan Fox was the ultimate sex symbol of 2009. You couldn't walk into a locker room or your brothers crib without seeing an image of the Transformer beauty. She was talked about all over the world because of her exotic beauty, and killer eyes.Kim Kardashian was even quoted saying that she had a girl crush on Fox (now that's a compliment). From her movie roles, magazine covers, and up and down relationship nobody could get enough of Ms. Fox this year. Though she was quoted saying some pretty bazaar statements she is just too hot for anyone to really care. 2009 was def. her year.
5.Rihanna and Chris Brown Scandal
It was all anyone was talking about. R&B heartthrob Chris Brown physically assaulted his girlfriend pop princess Rihanna on a night that was supposed to be a fairytale. After having a great time at a pre-grammy party, Rihanna and Chris Brown were on their way home when a fight escalated into a night both of them will never forget. Chris brown received a text message from a female that he had previously dated and Rihanna confronted him about it. One thing led to the other and all hell broke loose. The next thing you know, the police are called and Rihanna is found bloody and battered. A few hours later Chris turns himself into authorities and the rest goes down in history. With people taking one side or the other this was def. a story you could not stop hearing about in 2009.
4. Twilight
And this movie. The craze that swept the nation. Who would've thought a story about vampires would've created the frenzy that is Twilight. Even if you haven't seen it, you've heard of it. The forbidden love between a human and a vampire. I'm not gunna lie, it is a good story. It jump started the whole vampire obsession (UPN's Vampire diaries and numerous shows and movies about them) not to mention all the actors and actresses that were apart of this movie. Tickets for the second installment sold out months before it was even released! "Team Edward, Team Jacob." That's all you would see or hear about. Burger King had a commercial putting the fans against each other. It trickled down all the way into becoming an accidental fashion trend. People were dawning their Team Edward/ Team Jacob Tees everywhere and Nordstroms even had a special event for the Twilight/New Moon merchandise. Robert Pattinson (one of the main characters) was featured in Vanity Fair and Kristen Stewart, his co-star, is now featured in countless fashion mags. 2009 was definitely the year for books to be movies.....and you thought Harry Potter was big
3. Kanye West & Taylor Swift
"Taylor, I'm really happy for you imma let u finish but, BEYONCE HAD ONE OF THE BEST VIDEOS OF ALL TIME"!! Haha who could forget those infamous words? Kanye West dug himself in an enormous hole this year with that outburst. After making a damn fool of himself at the MTV Video Music Awards by interrupting Taylor Swifts acceptance speech, after she won Female Video of the Year, all hell broke loose. Everyone from singer Pink, Kelly Clarkson, and your mom had harsh words for the opinionated rapper. Pinks exact words were “I just think he’s an idiot, a waste, he’s just a toolbox". Even Twitter had Kanye West and Taylor Swift as a trending topic for a week with hilarious jokes clownin the rapper. Our personal favorite being " Hey Martin imma let you finish but last night I had the best dream of all time!!" (As they cropped a picture of West next to Martin Luther King making his famous speech) LOL! O Kanye when will you ever learn?? From your outburst about former president George Bush to swearing that you would never attend the MTV Video Music Awards again because you didn't win an award (obviously that wasn't true) when will this madness end!? We ain't mad at you though, everyone has the right to their own opinion, but please do something for us....find a better approach next time :).
2. Micheal Jackson
Who doesn't know Thriller or PYT ( my personal fave)? The whole entertainment world took a big hit when it was announced that Micheal Jackson was dead at the age of 50. Not only did the music world mourn, but it seemed like the whole world did as well. Every news channel had the funeral service on live, and stars were pouring out their hearts about MJ and to his family. I don't blame them. Music would not be what it is today without his influence. Stars like Usher, Chris Brown, Justin Timberlake, Black-eyed peas, etc have all been quoted saying how his vocal style and dances moves have shaped the type of artist they are now. The late Aaliyah has even been quoted saying that nothing will ever top the best-selling album of all time, Michael Jackson's Thriller. He is THE king of pop and this icon will be sorely missed. RIP MJ.
1. Obama
From one of the saddest to happiest history-making moment of 2009; Barack Obama beats Republican nominee Sen. John McCain, by 158 electoral votes. The campaign was historic for both Republican and Democratic nominees. Nobody was expecting this! Voters would either elect the first black president, or the oldest president and first woman vice president. I remember when even the thought of a woman president let alone a black president was looked at as a joke or "When pigs fly" type of thing. But pigs did fly (a.k.a swine flu...LOL) and it happened. The FIRST black president!! With so much going down in 2009 we can't wait to see what 2010 has in store for us.

Honorable Mentions
It was really hard to narrow down all the fixated moments of 2009 into a list of just 10, so we wanted to give a couple of honorable mentions to fixated moments of 2009.
1. Lady Gaga and Taylor Swift
Lady Gaga was deemed the new Madonna in 2009 while Taylor Swift was named Entertainer of the Year by Billboard magazine. These two ladies had an amazing year in music!
2.Octo mom
Everyone was talking about her. With so many kids already, why the heck was she having eight more?? For money? Attention? People went crazy!
3. Twitter
Move over Myspace, and Facebook. Twitter is about to take over the world! Pop culture became obsessed with this social network in 2009. Fans loved the idea of following their favorite celebrities every day move. Twitter had everybody stalking each other !
4. Jerk movement
The New Boyz had everyone jerking this year. Who would have thought that a joke would have been one of the hottest songs of the year??
5. Tiger Woods Scandal
Tiger Woods aint a tiger no more.....hes a cheetah now(enough said)
Speaking of the new year, how are you guys stylishly ringing in the new year? Send us pics of your new year's outfits and we'll post them up for a special New Year's Street Fashion edition.
Jay-Z defends Kanye West in an interview with BBC about the VMA situation. He states that Kanye West has always been a passionate person, and that's just the way he is. Jay believes what Kanye did was very rude, and Kanye needs to learn how to show his passion in the right situation. However, Jay says that overall this has been Kanye from day 1. He goes on to say that maybe if Kanye just started his tactics after he became famous, then it would be a different story. But, Kanye has been like this far before the fame. Jay also goes on to say that the situation was blown way out of proportion. "He didn't kill anybody, nobody got harmed,".
I completely agree with Jay. What Kanye did was stupid but, why is everybody acting like he killed the girl. He made a dumb mistake but, thats Kanye swag, he always been like this so, I really don't know why this suprises people. It doesn't make it right but damn, quit acting like he murdered the girl.
