Snoop Dogg’s response to the media’s criticism of his choice to smoke weed with his teenaged son is one that further shows the absence of influential parenting in the 21st Century.
“What better way to [learn] than from the master?” the rapper asked. ”My kids can do whatever the hell they want. For me to say otherwise would be hypocritical. A lot of motherf–ers don’t have a relationship with their kids, and that’s when they get on drugs and have suicidal thoughts and drive drunk. Me and my son is mellow. I’m his father, so I wanna show him the proper way because he looks up to me.”
Broadus claims to be a Rastafarian, a spiritual movement started in Jamaica. In July 2008, the Italian Supreme Court ruled that Rastafari may be allowed to possess greater amounts of cannabis legally, citing its use by them as a sacrament. The United States ruled that Rastafari do not have the religious right to smoke marijuana, as it is a violation of the United States’ drug laws. The same ruling is upheld in the United Kingdom.

What a sad sad week it’s been. Almost two weeks ago we reported that Tameka Foster’s son, Kile, was in an accident when he was ran over by a jet-ski while he was in an innertube hanging out with family and friends at a lake in Georgia. He was immediately airlifted to a nearby hospital and has been declared brain dead by doctors since he came in. But still Tameka waited & the world prayed for a miracle for Kile. Reports started swarming this morning that the family decided to remove him from life support, but reliable sources are now stating that his heart indeed stopped on it’s own.
Bobbi Kristina Brown made her acting debut on Tyler Perry’s For Better or Worse on TBS last night and by all accounts she did pretty good.
Ahead of the episode Tyler Perry posted a letter on his website explaining how Krissi’s role on For Better or Worse came about and asking for fan support.
Tyler writes,
Ok, with my heart and soul I will help and protect this child, just as I tried to do for Whitney.
So with that said, one thing I knew that Krissi would need after Whitney’s death was a safe place to grieve. So when she told me she wanted to act I said I would help. If she had said she wanted to be a doctor I would have tried to help her get into the best schools. But because she said acting, that was easy for me. I thought, “this is great”. This way I could have her on the show, while at the same time be there for her and help her walk through this grief.
So I wrote her into For Better Or Worse, which airs tonight on TBS. Now I wrote a very small part because I wasn’t sure if she could act. She had never done it before. So needless to say I was a little cautious, but BOY WAS I WRONG! Krissi was so good in that small part that I went back and wrote major scenes for her and even one entire show around her character. I’m so proud of this kid. You have no idea. SO PROUD OF HER!
I know Whitney is smiling down on her baby girl. Here’s what I’d like you to help me with if you don’t mind. It is one of my heart’s desires to see Krissi happy and joyous and moving through the pain of this tragedy. I know that the news media has moved on but the pain is still very real to her. What I also know is that every little bit of sunshine can help her move through. Trust me, I know. You helped me move through the grief of my mother’s death. So if you will, after you watch Krissi’s performance on For Better Or Worse tonight on TBS, please post a comment on my message board letting her know what you thought. She’s been through hell and to see her smile melts my heart. So I know if she reads your comments she will be even more inspired. And you better believe she’ll be watching and reading…lol. You know how these teenagers are with the internet.
Lastly, if you will whisper a prayer for her and the Houston family I know that they would appreciate it. Most of you have no idea what it’s like to lose a mother, especially at 19. I’m 42 and it still brings me to my knees at times.
It’s been a while since we’ve gotten a glimpse of Blue Ivy Carter. Well, to be precise, since we’ve seen her little feet, since her parents Beyoncé and Jay-Z are always careful to keep her face covered. Beyonce and Blue were spotted out at Bergdorf Goodman NYC this afternoon. It is definitely too hot to be wrapped up in blankets, so I’m glad Blue got a chance to take in some air.
Model Bria Murphy, daughter of Eddie and Nicole Murphy, hosted a Dark & Lovely launch party in NYC over the weekend. She has been a spokeswoman for over a year now. While her father has been seen around with his new boo Rocsi Diaz, her mother can be seen on VH-1’s reality show “Hollywood Exes.”
A photo from Evelyn Lozada’s wedding to Chad Ochocinco has turned up in Us Magazine. The couple also sat for a photoshoot for their reality show “Ev and Ocho.” Ev tweeted the pics and changed her Twitter name to Evelyn Johnson.
Snoop Dogg’s youngest son Cordell Broadus has been offered a football scholarship to UCLA, after only one year of high school. If he accepts, he could join Diddy’s son, Justin Combs, on the team.
Despite being a 15-year-old rising sophomore at Diamond Bar High School, UCLA coach Jim Mora Jr. recently offered the scholarship to Cordell because of his skills on the field. At 6-foot-2 and 185 pounds, sports experts think his body could develop into that of a Division I prospect.
