‘Love & Hip Hop’ Star Turns Himself In
“Love & Hip Hop” star Joe Budden turned himself in to the 34th Precinct in Inwood after being accused of assaulting his ex-girlfriend then robbing her. He was charged with robbery and grand larceny and held on $10,000 bail. Budden was bailed out by his mother shortly after. Earlier this week, the NYPD posted a WANTED tweet with Budden’s picture on Twitter.
It’s good to be free,” Budden told the Daily News as he left the courthouse. “I’ve been portrayed worse by better,” he said. Doesn’t seem very remorseful, does he?
In case you missed it, Budden’s ex-girlfriend accused him of attacking her after he saw pictures of her with other men on Instagram. According to reports, he drove to the restaurant where she was and demanded she drive back to New jersey with him. He allegedly grabbed her cell phone, mushed her, twisted her arm and choked her before slamming her head against the passenger-side window.
Budden obviously denies his ex’s accusations. His rep released this statement earlier this week:
“Mr. Budden looks forward to an opportunity to responsibly deal with and address the allegations against him so he may establish the actual facts of the night in question. Mr. Budden has fully cooperated with the investigation. Mr. Budden asks for patience as the evidence and facts unfold to demonstrate the truth of his involvement and the real events that transpired on the night in question.”
Can’t say we believe him. Budden has a history of these accusations. A few years back, he went through similar public problems with then girlfriend Esther Baxter.
Sigh. It’s time to add Joe Budden to our list of men who ain’t ish.
The girlfriend released photos from the altercation, here.

Suge Knight Released From Hospital
The assassination attempt on infamous music mogul Suge Knight almost feels like a bad flashback from the 90s, but the situation is very real. Knight spent three days in the hospital after being being shot six times in the stomach region at a pre-VMA party hosted by Chris Brown. Luckily for the California-native, he won’t need rehab, just follow-up visits, reports TMZ. In true Suge Knight fashion, he is allegedly refusing to cooperate with police, therefore we may never know who was behind the gun at the time of his shooting.
Earlier this week Knight’s family spoke out about the condition of Knight, saying:
“The family of Suge Knight ask that you keep Suge in your prayers and to stray away from the negativity portrayed by the media,” the statement red on Suge’s official Facebook fanpage. “Suge is currently resting and has lost a lot of blood, he’s human. He’s done a lot of things for the community and the culture as a whole so we ask that you respect that.”
We wish him a speedy recovery!

According to reports, the wedding was held their wine-growing estate–Château Miraval in the village of Correns on Saturday. Brad and Angelina have been engaged since 2012.
As expected their children– Maddox, 13, Pax, 11, Zahara, 9, Shiloh, 8, and 6-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne–we’re central figures in the planning.
“We’re just waiting for it to be the right time with the kids, with work, when it feels right,” Angeline told People in May. “We talk about it occasionally, and the kids talk about it with us.”
She added, “They will in a way be the wedding planners. It’s going to be Disney or paintball – one or the other! We’ve got a lot of different personalities in the house. They’ve got some strong opinions. It will be fun. That’s the important thing. When we do it, it will feel like a great day for our family.”

Ne-Yo Speaks Out About “Atlanta Exes”
Watching Monyetta Shaw break down as she opened up about her former relationship with Ne-Yo on VH1’s latest reality show “Atlanta Exes,” was heartbreaking. She revealed, not only does she still in her ex’s house, Ne-Yo requested she have her tubes tied. She agreed.
Monyetta’s confession and the fact that Ne-Yo is in another relationship with Crystal Renay, a video model, didn’t really help the public’s perception of the “Should Be You” singer. Ne-Yo, possibly feeling the pressure addressed the looming black cloud on Instgram:
“#repost @mscrystalrenay I’ve made my apologies to the people I feel I wronged. I was forgiven by those people. Anybody else passing judgment on me for my past mistakes and immaturities is more than welcome to it. Your opinion is your own to do with as you please. The ONLY judgment I’m truly concerned with is the ONLY one that matters. Mistakes will be made, that’s human. So again to all the perfect beings out there who feel so worthy to judge my imperfection…..ENJOY THE SHOW. #NowTHATSNonfiction #AtlExes #Vh1 #WatchIt #IfCrucifyingMeMakesYouFeelBetterAboutYouHaveAtIt #ShoutOutToAllTheImperfectPeopleOutThereJustTryingToFigureThisThingCalledLifeOutJustLikeMe”
As much as we love Ne-Yo for his artistry, he doesn’t seem like a great person to be in a relationship with. We also find it odd that he used a photo from his current girlfriend to address an issue regarding his ex-wife. It’s abundantly clear how Monyetta still feels about Ne-Yo. We guess it’s just a man thing.
In related “Atlanta Exes” news, a blind item suggests that either Torrei Hart was drunk out of her mind during an ugly spat with Tameka Raymond. According to Crazy Days and Nights,
“This D list reality star who only is a reality star because of her A+ list mostly movie actor ex-husband was wasted out of her mind over the weekend and started throwing punches at a memorial event for the offspring of this C list celebrity. She was throwing the punches at the C lister. Torrei Hart/Kevin Hart/Tameka Raymond”
