Kidnapped Girl from Philly Escapes
A young girl abducted from her elementary school escaped her captors early Tuesday morning, ending a night-long search in Philadelphia for the missing child. Thanks to social media sites such as Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram celebrities and regular civilians alike spreaded the amber alert of Na’illa Robinson, 5, who was found at about 4:40 a.m. near a playground on 69th Street, rescued by a man who heard her screams as he walked by. Na’illa was signed out and taken from her school on Monday morning by an unknown woman, but it was not until the students were dismissed for the day that the girl was identified as missing.
When she was found, the young girl was wearing only a T-shirt, taking shelter from cold weather and heavy rain beneath a jungle gym. When the passerby found her, she told him “I ran away, I ran away from the people who took me.”
Upper Darby Police Superintendent Michael Chitwood told Philly.com that police will focus on finding the kidnappers, now that Na’illa is safe.
Philadelphia police had announced a $10,000 reward for the child’s safe return on Monday night. The woman who took the girl out of school signed in as “Tiffany,” but the name is believed to be a fake. District officials said that according to protocol, any adult who removes a child from class must show identification and be verified as a parent or guardian. Those security measures were not taken on Monday morning.
Jermaine Dupri Saves His Crib One More Time
According to TMZ,
Jermaine Dupri rescued his home — filing an emergency motion just days after Christmas, insisting the foreclosure company has continually failed to prove that Jermaine actually owes the money it claims he does.
The company claims he owes roughly $410,000 on the home — Jermaine insists he only owes $111,845.
The judge sided with Jermaine — despite the producer admitting in the court docs that he hasn’t made a mortgage payment since November 2011 — and canceled the auction.
A hearing on the debt dispute has not been scheduled yet.

Andre 3000 Not Here for Pink Matter Remix
A few weeks ago Outkast member Big Boi jumped on a remix of Frank Ocean’s Pink Matter sparking rumors of an Outkast reunion.
Not only was this not a reunion, Andre 3000 sounds a little salty that it even have happened…
3 Stacks tells Spin Magazine exclusively,
“It’s important for me to be clear about the origins of my contributions to ‘Pink Matter’ and ‘Sorry.’
I was approached as a solo artist by both Frank Ocean & Tip. I discussed musical direction with each artist and completed my verses. It was after that when Big Boi’s name came up.
I never want to mislead our audience – I worried that some would think these were Outkast collaborations. These songs are not Outkast collaborations. I discussed this rationale with Big, Frank and T.I. and everyone agreed. That is why I was surprised to read about these remixes.
I understand that anyone can put out an unofficial remix to any song but I have an obligation to be honest with fans about what this is … and what it isn’t.”
