Rumored couple Fantasia and Young Dro arrive hand-in-hand on the red carpet of the 50th annual Grammy Awards, which air tonight Live from the Staples Center in Los Angeles on CBS at 8 PM EST. Fantasia, who is a nominee for “Best Female R&B Vocal Perforformance,” can be seen rocking her new skunk-like hairdo that has been receiving a lot of positive and negative comments over the past few days. Musiq Soulchild, who is a nominee for “Best Male R&B Vocal Performance” also made an appearance on the red carpet.

Last week was the debut of a few nasty rumors. Supposedly Fantasia was pregnant, Soulja Boy’s mom had passed away, and J.Holiday had died in a plane crash (even though he’s on tour and riding a TOUR BUS). I would love to know where some of these ridiculous rumors start…

FANTASIA AND HER 6-YEAR-OLD DAUGHTER ZION

According to a few sources, over the past 9 months Fantasia has been missing a few shows (50+ to be exact lol) due to exhaustion/being sick. Needless to say, the folks at Broadway weren’t happy. When the star doesn’t show, a stand-in fills in for them, and the people who attend the show are entitled to a refund. So they lose a lot of money when this happens. But anyhow, back to the rumor. Apparently the NY Post’s Michael Riedel added to the story stating that the American Idol winner was pregnanty with Young Dro’s baby, making it seem like that was the reason why she was missing all of the shows. Fantasia has since then come out and clarified all of the misconceptions with a statement:

It is true that she has missed some performances because she has gotten sick from time to time over the nine months, but doing eight shows a week is a lot so she missed a few.

Fantasia, who already has a 6-year-old daughter, Zion Quari, is scheduled to end her extended Broadway run as Miss Celie on January 6th. Chaka Khan and Bebe Winans join the cast as Sofia and Harpo on January 9th. Check out our clear up of the rest of the rumors after the jump! CONTINUE READING

FYI: Damn, it feels great to be back! Where the hell was I you ask? Well, to make a long story short, there was some digging on some property beside my house and the workers cut right through our cable line, leaving us without television and internet for the past 30 hours! Yeah, I was bored as hell, but luckily I had my BOONDOCKS SEASON 1 DVD to ease the pain. Obviously I couldn’t update here so I hope you didn’t miss me too much! Anyhow, for the next day or so I’ll be “playing catch-up” to post the things I missed out on in my blockage of the outside world (no tv and no internet is NO FUN … trust me!) By the way, if you’re looking for “Weekend Update” … THIS IS WEEKEND UPDATE! Now on to playing catch-up!

“THE COLOR PURPLE” AT THE 2007 TONY’S »

I can’t believe I didn’t post these! I was looking through the archives from the past couple of weeks and photos from the Tony’s were nowhere to be found. In fact, they were still sitting here on my computer in a zip archive waiting to be extracted, uploaded, and posted. My bad y’all, here they are! More photos of ‘Tasia can be found after the cut, along with the rest of the first edition of today’s “Playing Catch-Up!”
