Back in 2006 50 Cent claimed he slept with Mya on a diss track aimed at rapper Game called “I’m Not Rich, I’m still Lying.”
Apparently Mya is still mad about it…
Mya has always maintained that 50 Cent was lying about sleeping with her and when comedian Jack Thriller tried to get a drop for Thisis50.com on the BET Awards red carpet Mya didn’t hold back how she felt.
After Jack asked for the drop, Mya cut him off with, “This is for 50 Cent? Oh. No. No. No. We can’t do that. He dissed me and I don’t support that.” Jack persisted trying to get the drop and told Mya 50 Cent was only bullsh*tting to which she replied, “He needs to say that to the public, cause people don’t lie on their dicks, ok?”
Usher’s ex-wife Tameka Raymond has been granted an emergency hearing for custody following a serious pool accident involving their 5-year-old son Usher V.
In the motion for the emergency hearing filed on August 6, 2013, Foster claims Usher has “failed to personally exercise physical custody of the minor children” and utilizes “third-party caregivers … rather than personally exercising parenting time” and alleges that Usher isn’t home “85%” of the time. She also calls the Monday incident a “near-death” accident, and claims that their son was “left unsupervised in a swimming pool” at Usher’s Atlanta home.
According to a police incident report obtained by ET, Usher V was swimming and playing around the pool under the supervision of his aunt, Rena Oden, when he fell to the bottom of the pool and subsequently became stuck in the drain. Attempts by Oden and the housekeeper to remove him were unsuccessful, but luckily a pair of subcontractors — Benjamin Crews and Eugene Stachurski — working on a sound system in the house were able to pull the boy from the pool and revive him with CPR.
The emergency hearing on custody has been scheduled for Friday at 2 p.m. before Fulton County Superior Court Judge John Goger.
Tameka Raymond wasted no time in filing a emergency custody order for her two sons by international superstar, Usher Raymond. As you may remember Tameka lost her son Kile, last year in a jet-skiing accident. TMZ reports:
Usher’s ex-wife has just filed legal docs asking for an emergency hearing later this week … to wrestle child custody away from him, on grounds he’s creating a dangerous environment … TMZ has learned.
Tameka Raymond filed the docs in Fulton County, Georgia, claiming Usher is abdicating his parental responsibilities by letting other people care for their 2 kids — people who she claims are not on the ball.
As many, including myself entered the Spirit Fest on this past Saturday, featuring Erykah Badu and D’Angelo, we learned that D’Angelo would not be performing due to an illness. However; the talented Raheem Devaughn stepped in and delivered a great set.
Reportedly, he’s been hospitalized for a “medical emergency” but no one has revealed exactly what the emergency was or is.
Spin reports:
“It’s serious, but he should be OK,” the Tribune says D’Angelo’s agent told a House of Blues executive, while Live Nation said the singer “expresses his sincere regret due to this unfortunate circumstance.”
D’Angelo also canceled his appearance in Baltimore this weekend and headliner of the show, Erykah Badu, teamed up with Common to fill that slot. His upcoming show in Chicago tomorrow at the House of Blues is now canceled. And his shows in New York and San Diego last week were also cancelled. His Friday show in San Francisco is still on…for now.

Usher’s son Usher Raymond V has been hospitalized after an accident in the singer’s pool on Monday. Sources tell TMZ that the incident occurred around 2 p.m. The five-year-old was rushed to the ICU at an Atlanta hospital. Usher was not home at the time.
The child was playing in the pool with his aunt and saw a toy in the drain. He swam to retrieve the toy and his arm got caught. The aunt immediately dove in, but couldn’t free his hand. The maid then jumped in the pool and tried but was also unsuccessful.
After the maid screamed for help, two men working in the house came to the rescue and freed the boy. He was given CPR immediately and rushed to the hospital. Usher arrived and drove in the ambulance with his son.
The child’s lungs reportedly filled with water and he underwent some form of resuscitation. Doctors have run a series of tests and it seems like he’s doing fine at this time.
Usher Raymond V, who Usher calls Cinco, is the oldest of Usher’s two sons with ex-wife Tameka Raymond. Both parents are currently at the hospital.
Usher’s 11-year-old stepson Kile passed away last year from injuries sustained in a jet ski accident.
