I know this is late notice, but Think2wice will be interviewing Mario this Monday - May 12th! So if you have any questions for the former Dancing With the Stars contestant, please be sure to leave them here and I will try my best to slide them in the interview. As usual, only legitimate questions will be considered, and like other interviews, something may come up and the interview might get rescheduled, so nothing’s promised.
Lil Mama celebrated the release of her debut album, “VYP: Voice of the Young People,” with a party at Room Service in New York last night (Apr. 28th). DJ Khaled was a guest at the party.
Jermaine Dupri’s baby-sitter, Janet Jackson, took some time off of her 24 hour job of tending to little JD to appear at the 19th Annual GLAAD Media Awards in Hollywood Saturday night (Apr. 26th). Of course she had to run home after she did her duty at the ceremony because child neglect charges aren’t something anyone wants on their record!
Candids of Halle Berry, Mario, Denzel Washington and more after the break! CONTINUE READING
The Lakers games these past couple of weeks have been on and poppin’ as far as celebrity turn-out! It seems as though every day, or every other day at least, we’re posting about who hit up one of the games. Singer Mario and actor Evan Ross can be seen above with their “Kool Moe Dee” shades on at last night’s game. Why the hell are they wearing shades to a baksetball game? I’m not sure about how they like to view games, but if I had courtside seats, I definitely wouldn’t be hindering my view in any kind of way. But that’s just me.

We kinda stole this from Vibe Magazine. You know, where they do the questions. However, there are two differences - we ask an additional question, and the questions they ask, and the ones we ask are completely different! Oh yeah … we spell it like “qwestchuns” lol!
#1: Why did it take to long for Beyonce to get a non-singing role in a movie?
#2: Why does Weezy’s ad for condoms look suspect?
#3: Why are Reggie and Kim playing us with this fake ass relationship?
#4: Speaking of “fake ass relationships,” Chris Brown and Rihanna! Whaddup?
#5: Why didn’t Woody tell Sisqo about his call from the Lord before hitting the radio airwaves? Couldn’t he have at least put him on threeway? CONTINUE READING
R&B singer Mario will be one of 12 celebrity performers on ABC’s top-rated Dancing with the Stars when it returns in its 6th season premiere March on 17, 2008.
“I’ve never done ballroom dancing, but I’ll be ready. Everywhere I go, I represent my city, Baltimore,” he said. “And coming from a place where success stories for youth are few and far between, I see my involvement in Dancing with the Stars as a chance for me to show millions of viewers what hard work and dedication can accomplish. This is the story of my life. When my manager called me to talk me about being on the show, he knew what my first answer was going to be. But then I came to notice that the show gave viewers a chance to get to know the performer behind the costume - and I liked that. I like the fact that I will be carrying the torch for my generation. And, I also like the fact that I will be doing it with such a diverse and accomplished cast of other performers this year. This is definitely a challenge, but I’ve had challenges all my life. At the end of the day, if you dedicate yourself, there’s nothing you can’t do. This is just another way for me to express myself, and we’re going to be amazing.”
Mario’s dance partner will be Karina Smirnoff, who has danced in previous seasons with country singer Billy Ray Cyrus and actor Mario Lopez. If you’re interested in seeing who else will be participating in the show, follow the link below. CONTINUE READING
Mario » “Music for Love” » LISTEN » (Full) » “Music for Love” is set to be R&Ber Mario’s forthcoming single from his much-underrated album Go! (J Records), which is in stores now - I highly recommend you buy this album! I think the single is gold, really every song from that album I find single-material. The song is really subtle with melodies and harmonies, it’s “whip-listenable,” as well as pleasurable, in my opinion.
Chris Brown ft. Will.i.am » “Picture Perfect” » LISTEN » (Full) » “Picture Perfect” featuring domestic-producer Will.i.am will be Chris Brown’s forth single from Exclusive (Jive). It’s interesting they’re making this a single; Chris Brown co-produced it. “PP” took me a minute to get into, it wasn’t my immediate favorite when I first heard Exclusive, but I’m feeling it now! I can’t wait to see how this plays out, with the promotion, video, etc.
Fergie » “Finally” » LISTEN » (Full) » “Finally” will be the final single from Fergie’s 3x’s platinum-album The Dutchess (A&M). The song itself was produced by John Legend, he was the pianist, and also Fergie stated that she would be performing with him at the 50th Grammy Awards. I liked this song a lot listening to Fergie’s album, the song was a nice ballad for her, it really showed her vocal capability nice.
Kanye West ft. Chris Martin » “Homecoming” » LISTEN » (Full) » “Homecoming,” featuring Cold Play’s Chris Martin, will be the fifth single from Kanye West’s 2x’s platinum-album Graduation (Def Jam). Unfortunately the song will only be released in the UK, instead of “Flashing Lights,” which is serving as the fourth single in the rest of the world. I said it once, and I’ll say it again, you UKer’s get everything! Lol. But for real, I really like this song, “Homecoming” has to be the most creative, conceptual song I’ve heard, as far as personification, this great man - is genius!

REGGIE BUSH AND KIM KARDASHIAN CELEBRATE AT MANSION
PHOTOS: WIRE IMAGE
Kim Kardashian and Reggie Bush threw a party at the Mansion in Miami. Word on the sidewalk is that they’re engaged to be married, or something like that. But, of course … she’s denying it. Just like she denied that they were dating in the first place. And we all know how that turned out. Reggie Bush is one lucky SOB!
“Down In Tha Dirty” is the second single by Disturbing tha Peace from their compilation album Strength in Numbers. It features Bun B & Rick Ross and was produced by Clinton Sparks. CONTINUE READING

Here R&B crooner Mario can be heard with Konvict’s own Akon in a nice, smooth R&B duet entitled “City.” The song, which features Akon, is an unreleased track from Mario’s latest album Go (J Records). This was an interesting collaboration for me, Akon rocks it, I’ll admit. I can see why this didn’t really make the album but still a great track and solid delivery from Mario nonetheless. Mario I find so flawless collaborating becos he meshes so well and seemingly effortless, it’s magical. There’s talk of a “Crying Out For Me” remix circulating - it’ll be interesting to know if there are any guest appearances involved.
