Celebrity Couples: Who Earns More?

 

http://puffpuff411.com/

Question: Beyonce and Jay-Z: Each of this husband-and-wife team is a music icon in their own right, but who out-earns the other?

 

Answer: Beyonce does.

According to Forbes, in 2010 Beyonce made $87 million from a combination of touring, endorsements and her clothing line, House of Dereon. Meanwhile, her husband, former Def Jam Recordings CEO and winner of 13 Grammy Awards, Jay-Z, earned $63 million from his newest album, Blueprint III and its subsequent tour, as well as from investments in the 40/40 Club, the New Jersey Nets and the Broadway show "Fela!"
Question: Tom Brady or Gisele Bundchen: Does football or professional modeling bring in the bigger bucks?



Answer: Tom does.
As the world's highest-paid supermodel, Bundchen earns about $25 million per year, which beat out her hubby's $3.5 million football paycheck for the past several years. But in 2010, Brady signed a new four-year deal, complete with a $16 million signing bonus, that will garner him about $36.5 million this season alone. While this is the first time he has surpassed Bundchen in income, she can look forward to being tackled monetarily for years to come as his salary is set to increase throughout the term of the contract. However, the NFL lockout at the end of this year may hit Brady in the wallet because if there are no games, there will be little-to-no pay.
Question: Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt: Passionate about their children and human rights, the acting careers of this supercouple have catapulted them into A-list stars. But who do you think makes more?





Answer: They both are equal.







Question: Cameron Diaz and Alex Rodriguez (A-Rod): She's the actress with the legs that never stop and he's baseball's stud third baseman for the New York Yankees. Together they make a winning combination of looks and athleticism. When not feeding each other popcorn at the Super Bowl, who outruns the other in the paycheck department?

Answer: Alex does.

A-Rod is just a little outside with $33 million to Cameron's $32 million. Talk about a close call.

R. Kelly’s Memoirs To Be Released This Year


http://puffpuff411.com/

R. Kelly is writing his memoirs, a book he intends to call Soulacoaster. He hopes to have the book available in stores later this year.


“I’m writing this book as Robert, not R. Kelly,” the multi-platinum singer-songwriter-producer says. “I’m tired of being misunderstood. I will show you the tears, fears, and sweat. I will open my heart and reveal the good in my life as well as all the drama. I want to tell it like it is.”

R. Kelly is working with author David Ritz on the book. Ritz has previously co-written books with Janet Jackson, B.B. King, Etta James, and co-wrote Marvin Gaye‘s hit single “Sexual Healing.”

Arizona Bans Abortion Based On Race!

  

“Arizona Governor Jan Brewer just signed a bill that makes it a felony to “knowingly perform or provide financing for an abortion sought because of the race or sex of the fetus or a parent’s race.”
“The only people who are supporting these bills are people who want to ban abortion. When you think about the heart of the bill, the bill is not about protecting women’s health. Instead, you have anti-abortion people passing a condition on abortion,” says Elizabeth Nash, a Washington, D.C.-based public policy associate for the Guttmacher Institute that advocates for sexual and reproductive health.
“It is unusual. There’s not anything out there to say this does happen, so it’s weird that people would try to adopt a law for something that’s not happening,” she adds.
The abortion law would cause women to have to disclose a reason for their abortions by verifying that it is not for racial reasons or because of the sex of the fetus. This law also sets a precedent by penalizing doctors for supposedly aborting babies for these aforesaid reasons.
“This law creates a highly unusual requirement that women state publicly their reason for choosing to terminate a pregnancy — a private decision they already made with their physician, partner and family,” said Bryan Howard, chief executive officer of Planned Parenthood of Arizona, in a statement. “While we condemn racism and sexism in all forms, legislation that overrides the doctor-patient relationship is not in the best interest of Arizonans.”
“The bill is not about protecting women’s health. You have anti-abortion people passing a condition on abortion,” Nash says.
“This seems to be trying to get people to think about race more than affect any sort of practice. This is an issue that doesn’t make sense from a political standpoint except that it could pull apart different coalitions,” she continues.”

Rihanna Gets Cheeky, Literally, On Cover Of Rolling Stone


Rihanna isn't shy about showing off what her mama gave her these days. On the cover of Rolling Stone's latest issue, the singer gets cheeky, literally, showing off her assets in a pair tiny Daisy Dukes.
Titled "Rihanna Strikes Back," the cover caption reads: "Pop's Queen of Pain on Sexting, Bad Boys & Her Attraction to the Dark Side."
The magazine hits newsstands Friday (April 1).
At press time, excerpts and/or more details of the interview have not been released, but are expected to be released Wednesday (March 30) at RollingStone.com.
However, the title of the piece suggests that Rihanna addresses her sexting picture leaks, controversy over her video for "S&M", and why she likes bad boys, among other things.
Stay tuned...

Ice Cube Signs On To Endorse Coors Light Beer



Well from this standpoint we all can see that when it comes to alcholic beverages Ice Cube steps in ans shows everyone that he can endorse too. Now that Diddy is tied in with Ciroc, Snoop Dogg recently began endorsing Blast By Colt 45, Pitbull has become owner of Voli vodka, and now, Ice Cube is joining the party.
The west coast rap legend has reportedly signed on to endorse Coors Light beer. He will appear in ads put together by Commonground, a Chicago-based multi-cultural agency, where he will battle Coors Light bottles in a stare down to see who is colder.
According to Advertising Age, the ads hope to successfully increase crossover appeal of the brand, which may not be so far-fetched judging by the "spirited reaction" it received when presented to a test audience of distributors.
Their main goal is to dethrone Anheuser-Busch's Budweiser this year as the nation's best-selling beer, and it's already close, according to the report.
"Budweiser is going down, baby," MillerCoors Chief Marketing Officer Andy England told AdAge.com.
"Coors Light once again is the shining knight in silver armor so far in 2011," added Harry Schumacher, editor ofBeer Business Daily. "If Coors Light continues this trajectory, expect it to surpass Budweiser this year as the No. 2 beer brand."
Cube previously endorsed St. Ides malt liquor in the late '80s in a large poster campaign, paving the way for the likes of hip-hop endorsers Snoop Dogg and Tupac Shakur, who both appeared in advertisements for the drink.
At press time, it was unclear when the Ice Cube Coors Light ad campaigns would begin running.

Mathew Knowles No Longer Managing Beyonce


Beyonce has announced that she and her father Mathew Knowles will part ways professionally. Mathew will no longer be taking on duties as her manager. Beyonce released a statement to the Associated Press, stating the two will part ways on a professional level. Beyonce added “He is my father for life and I love my dad dearly.”
I wonder if this has anything to do with Mathew cheating on Tina? Matthew has managed Beyonce since the start of her career. He has basically built her entire brand.
Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams had separated from Matthew years back while pursuing solo careers. Beyonce is currently working on her fourth album and hasn’t announced a new management. I bet she signs on with Jay-Z’s Roc-Nation.

Wesley Snipes Denied Bond Pending Appeal

   


Wesley Snipes had better start making friends in prison because it looks like he’s going to be there a while!
The 48-year-old actor filed a motion on January 28 in the United States Court of Appeals For The Eleventh Circuit requesting bond while his petition for certiorari is pending before the United States Supreme Court – on Friday, his request was denied the judges’ order.
Circuit Judges Edmonson, Marcus and Pryor denied Snipes request for bond citing “it is outside of the scope of this appeal.”
In addition, the Circuit Judges also denied his move for bond pending his appeal from the denial of his motion for a new trial, stating that the actor “has failed to demonstrate that he qualifies for such relief.”
Earlier this year, the actor’s lawyers filed a petition asking the US Supreme Court to examine claims that he was wrongly tried and that prosecutors should have met a higher standard of proof.
In December, Snipes began serving a three-year prison sentence at the Federal Correctional Institution McKean in Pennsylvania for failure to file income tax returns.
Snipes was convicted in 2008 on three misdemeanor counts of willful failure to file income tax returns.
He filed several last minute appeals in an attempt to delay his incarceration but they were all denied.


Chris Brown Calls Nude-Photo Leak 'Disappointing'

  


Even with full-frontal snaps of him circulating on the Net, Chris Brown wants everyone to know that, like a certain fired sitcom star, he's still ... winning!

Earlier this month, a newly blond C.Breezy was preparing for the promotional run of his March 22 release,F.A.M.E., when photographs of the heavily tatted pop&B singer — completely in the buff and facing an oblong mirror with phone in hand — leaked to the Internet. Brown quickly took to Twitter, where he unleashed a salty post before removing it: "WTF!!! Here we go!!!"
On Friday (March 18), Chris stopped by MTV News for a sit-down and he explained what really got him hot under the collar about the incident.
"Let me be honest with you. I didn't want to put no pictures out; that's not my intention. A lot of people were saying, 'Yo, he leaked the pictures, he was trying to get promotion,' " the "Deuces" singer said. "For me, I was always a singer, so unless I'm planning on trying to do porn, I don't think I'd want to just leak my wang out to the world before my album comes out."
While leaking photos might be the go-to for celebutantes and wannbe stars famished for fame, Chris was bothered that critics would accuse him of deliberately passing along provocative pictures for publicity's sake.
"It was disappointing to me that it was out, because I was like, 'Man, now it's gonna [look like] a gimmick behind it,' " he said of the pre-release push for his album. "And I don't want a gimmick behind anything that I'm doing."
Although Brown was mum about the girl on the receiving end of those racy pics, we wondered if the experience would make him more cautious with his iPhone in the future. But it turns out Chris found something oddly liberating about it.
"Nah, I'm just living life, I'm just gonna have fun," Brown said, adjusting his Billionaire Boys Club knit cap. "At this point, there's no more insecurities with me. Everything's out on the table. You've seen everything! Also, as an artist I'm free with my music. I get to talk about the subjects I want to talk about and also reach people. So I'm just gonna live my life, man. There's nothing to be upset about, nothing to be angry ... where I'm at creatively and mentally is great so I'm not gonna let anybody or any naysayer or hater mess that up," he said before adding with a toothy grin, " 'cause there's no point, I'm ... winning!"

He added the right notes to songs like Warren G's "Regulate" and Snoop Dogg's "Ain't No Fun" and provided memorable hooks to many of the DeathRow records in that era.
The Long Beach native began in the group 213 with Snoop and Warren and throughout his career he lent his vocals to stars including Eminem, 50 Cent, The Game, Ludacris, Tupac and Dr. Dre.
He was nominated for four Grammys for collaborations and the most successful of his four solo albums wasMusic & Me.

Carmelo also had the support of his fellow NY Knicks teammate Amare Stoudemire who was all smiles for the cameras. Seems like yesterday when Kiyan was first born, but he's growing up quickly.
