Live With Kelly And Morris!

Kelly Ripa is likely to pick Morris Chestnut to replace Michael Strahan. Chestnut was featured in The Best Man, Boyz in the Hood and Fox's Rosewood.

The drama over at Live! may be coming to an end. Kelly Ripa has announced her new host. The news will be dropped soon and people are anticipating on the new host being a famous face.

The possible host is someone familiar with television and movies.

It seems like actor Morris Chestnut is highly favored to be the replacement for Michael Strahan, the ex-NFL star/actor/game show host who abruptly left the show to take on full time duties at GMA.

This was one of the biggest shocks in the junk food media. It sparked a bitter feud between Ripa and Strahan. The two were distant from one another and refuse to acknowledge each other.

Kelly Ripa was struggling to find a decent host.

Chestnut is probably the right choice. Given that Chestnut is 'eye candy" for women and he has notable history appealing with viewers, it's good choice.

Chestnut is on the Fox police drama Rosewood. It's greenlighted for a second season and it will air again on Thursday to replace Bones after it finishes up its final season.

Other possibilities include: Neil Patrick Harris. He would be a suitable choice. He's a famous actor who can entertain and make the show more lively. He's is openly gay and could bring rational views to the show. The actor and business mogul is best friends with Ripa. Neil Patrick Harris and Kelly Ripa were guests of actress Rachael Harris's wedding.

Anderson Cooper, the CNN host and CBS 60 Minutes commentator. With a busy schedule and a failed talk show, it's highly unlikely for him to be the choice. Cooper will moderate the second debate between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump.

Fred Savage and Rob Lowe. Both have appeared on the critically acclaimed sitcom The Grinder. The series was cancelled in the latest round of Fox downsizing its comedy blocks. Savage is a famous child actor now turned famous director and producer. He is working on other sitcoms and directing episodes of New Girl, black-ish, The Goldbergs and Girl Meets World starring his brother Ben Savage.

Lowe, on the other hand was probably a bad choice. Given that he's turned conservative, he will clash with Kelly Ripa on issues like LGBT and Hillary Clinton. Lowe who is critical of Barack Obama would say something that would make the show too political. Lowe is also working on a television series.

We will await the announcement. The new season of Live! begins on Monday.

Jerry Heller Passed Away!

Jerry Heller, the co-founder of Ruthless Records and the manager of famed hip-hop group N.W.A., passed away.

Jerry Heller, the man who helped bring the N.W.A. into the mainstream passed away.  Heller was the manager of the group and was one of the reasons for the breakup. Heller passed away at the age of 75 in Thousand Oaks, California.

He died of a heart attack and his family confirmed it was a fatal car accident.

Heller met Eazy E and helped him form Ruthless Records. The label was responsible for pushing out the hits. It also gave the West Coast a voice. It dealt with oppression, police brutality and America's treatment of Black America. Critics said that the music was promoting violence and sexism.

The group dismissed this. They were saying that these issues are a part of Black urban life. They were expressing their freedom of speech.

The N.W.A. was composed of Ice Cube, MC Ren, DJ Yella, Arabian Prince, Dr. Dre, and Eazy E.

Arabian Prince would leave the group before it would become a mainstream act.

The group was one of the earliest and most significant members of hip-hop. The group is by far one of the most controversial. They couldn't get radio play because of their songs, but the group managed to pull sell 10 million units.

Things got worse for the group when Ice Cube accused Heller of mismanaging their money.
The world's most dangerous group.
The group would eventually breakup in 1991. Dr. Dre would leave Ruthless to start up the Death Row label with Marion "Big Suge" Knight.

Dr. Dre and Ice Cube would bash Heller and Eazy E for selling out their music. Eazy E said that Jerry was a "gangsta for life" and he wouldn't want to be around them "marks" Dre and Cube.

Eazy E would record a few more EP and his full length album under Ruthless. Around 1995, Eazy was getting ill. He was diagnoses with complications from AIDS. He passed away from the deadly disease.

The critically acclaimed Straight Outta Compton movie portrayed Heller as a bad person. He would sue the F. Gary Gary and NBCUniversal for slander. He would blame the movie for him having trouble trying to secure acts.

The album Straight Outta Compton marked the beginning of gangsta rap. The group was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2016.

You got to give up to the city of Compton. Without the N.W.A., you wouldn't have gangsta rap.

Ruthless Records also was responsible for bring Bone Thugs-N-Harmony to the label. The Cleveland based group composed of Krayzie, Layzie, Wish, Bizzy and Flesh Bone.

Flea Market Rapper Benzino Hits Rock Bottom!

Benzino is a notorious figure in the hip-hop community. He is blacklisted by most record companies. He still makes music and parties like a 20 year old. Mind you he's 52 year old.

Washed up rapper Benzino is hoping to save grace. A dangerous figure is no longer on the streets. His nephew Gai Scott was sent to the iron college after he filled his uncle with lead.

A couple years ago, Benzino was heading to the funeral for his mother who passed away. The shooter approached the vehicle. The two got into a heated argument and then the shooting.

Benzino was shot three times and he survived the shooting.

We just found out that the shooter will be pressing plates for the next ten years.

Benzino used this shooting as fodder for the role on a reality television show. He was dating video vixen Althea Heart a co-star on the Love & Hip-Hop: Atlanta.
Gai Scott the nephew of Benzino shot him during a dispute at a funeral. Scott was a member of Benzino's rap posse.
The two got into a heated fight with Stevie J and Joseline. VH-1 decided to fire Benzino and Althea out the cannon after this.

Since that altercation, many networks didn't want much to do with him.

Benzino decided to father a child with Althea. Now they had planned on getting married but his temper and the code of the streets kept this relationship on the rocks. They ended up on Marriage Boot Camp to repair their relationship. It didn't work.

Now they're not together and he's still trying to stay relevant.

Since his cannon firing from Love & Hip-Hop: Atlanta, Benzino has taken his talents to Black owned TV One. He is now on TV One's The Next 15. It's basically a reality show that deals with entertainers who are struggling to stay in the limelight.

Benzino is most famous for his feud with Eminem. At one time, he used The Source Magazine as a weapon against the rapper. Benzino was co owner of the magazine with Dave Mays, a Harvard educated White man.

Mays, Jon Scheter, James Bernard and Ed Young founded the magazine in 1988.

They had a bitter fallout when Mays wanted to give Benzino an opportunity to grow by selflessly promoting his terrible ideas. Mays and Benzino nearly destroyed The Source in this war with Eminem. The shareholders fired the two out the cannon in 2006.

Benzino and Mays would create Hip Hop Weekly, a New York Post style gossip rag.

Benzino is a one hit wonder. His only song, Rock The Party was the only single to make it in Billboard's top ten hits of the week.

Here's Would You, a single off Benzino's Redemption album. The album features guest vocals from actress LisaRaye McCoy. The actress/model tried a hand at rapping. She was promoted at one time to host The Source Magazine's: All Access television show on UPN.

Summer Sixteen In The 8 Mile!

Slim Shady and the 6 God pose in Detroit.

Drake is riding high on the success of Views. The album is three times platinum and possibly one of the best selling albums of the year. He is also confirming another album release. The album The 6'ers is a collaboration with Gucci Mane. The two will release their album in September.

One feud that was allegedly brewing was the one with Eminem. That rumor was quickly put to bed.

Drake had enough of the bullshit rumors. He singled out Hot 97 and specifically Ebro and DJ Funkmaster Flex for starting rumors about a possible feud with Slim Shady.

Ebro was making claims that Eminem was cooking up a single aimed at Drake. Funk Flex tried to push the Meek Mill feud by releasing "Wanna Know". The song was released and it was panned by the hip-hop community.

It all started from a feud between Shady Records artist Joe Budden of Slaughterhouse going after Drake for having a ghostwriter. Drake tapped him in 4pm and Calabasas and No Shopping with French Montana.

Drake said that he's "not a one hit wonder, the fans know all his stuff!" That was a dig at Joe Budden's one hit wonder "Pump it Up" off his self-titled album on his old label Def Jam.

The rapper performed at Joe Louis Arena yesterday and he decided to pay homage to the Detroit legend. Guess what Drizzy done? He brought Em out to help him perform.

He said that's one of the greatest before he bowed to him. It confirms that the two aren't beefing.

Later Eminem released on his official Instagram a picture with Drake.

A photo posted by Marshall Mathers (@eminem) on


In other news, 50 Cent is releasing his long awaited album Street King Immortal this week. The album was supposed to be released on Shady Records and Aftermath Entertainment. It was shelved after 50 got into a heated feud with Interscope boss Jimmy Iovine.

Iovine had to fire 50 out the cannon after he threatened to leak songs without authorization.

50 ended the feuds with Cam'ron and Game.

Puppy Chow!

Shad Moss is dropping Bow Wow for good.

Shad Moss, formerly known as Bow Wow is announcing he is putting the mic up for good. The 29 year old rapper has decided that the music isn't popping anymore and he felt its time to move on.

When we first heard of Shad Moss, we knew him as Lil' Bow Wow. The name was given to him by the legendary Snoop Dogg. He was then signed to Jermaine Dupri's So So Def Recordings. His debut single "Bounce with Me" from Big Mama's House sparked a memorable career in pop music.

Moss would become a huge pop celebrity. His debut album Beware of Dog became a hit. He would achieve a platinum album at the age of 12. The album had features from Snoop Dogg, Xscape, Da Brat, Jermaine Dupri and Jagged Edge.

Then his follow up album Doggy Bag came out and it reached platinum. Around that time, Durpi was having issues with Columbia Records and So So Def left leaving Moss and Jagged Edge behind.

Moss would get acting gigs and a modeling career. He wss at the top of his game.

Around that time, Moss decides to drop the Lil' off Bow Wow. He would release three more albums and a collaboration album with former B2K singer Omarion.

About the time his contract with Columbia, he was looking for a label to release his music. He would find a home with Cash Money and Young Money.

For at least five years, Moss was gearing up for a return to the music with the album Underrated. It was supposed to be released around 2011, but it was shelved for the newer and popular acts. Lil' Wayne, Drake and Nicki Minaj were dominating the charts and it was squeezing time away from acts like Moss,Tyga and Busta Rhymes.

Around 2012, Moss held a spot on the couch on BET. He was one of the final host to 106 & Park, a music video show. He would soon announce he would leave Cash Money Records around the end of 106 & Park.

Now he signed to Sean "Puffy" Comb's Bad Boy Records. He is hoping that this album will be a masterpiece before he ends his career as a rapper.

We can only hope.

Anyway, the CSI: Cyber franchise was a flop. CBS canceled the series within its second season.

Here's a throwback to Bow Wow's career. The song "Bounce with Me".

Re-Unit!

The Game and 50 Cent settle the longest hip-hop feud in American history.

The long feud between two of the biggest egos in hip-hop finally came to an end. The Unit's 50 Cent has squashed his feud with Game. The Game was the fifth member of the Unit and in 2005, he was booted out the group after he complained about 50 and Dr. Dre's handling of his debut album The Documentary.

50 said that Game refused to follow their feud with Fat Joe, Nas, Jadakiss, and Ja Rule. Game said that 50 was jealous of him getting the beats from Dre. 50 was pissed that Jimmy Iovine and Dre pushed his album The Massacre (previous St. Valentine's Day Massacre) into March.

Both 50 and Game had traded shots online and in the studio. Game released the infamous 300 Bars song going after 50, Tony Yayo, Lloyd Banks, and Young Buck. He was booted off Aftermath and sent to Geffen Records.

50 Cent and The Unit would move from Aftermath and Shady to Caroline Records. Each act now is working on trying to regain their glory.

Many fans were urging 50 to drop the feud with Game. At the time, 50 said Game isn't going to ever be back in the Unit.

Now spotted at a strip club in Los Angeles, Game worked out his differences with 50 and the two are now on speaking terms. As for being a member of the group, we don't know.

Hopefully Game and 50 don't let their egos ruin this moment in history.

Game was spotted in Dubai with Lloyd Banks. It fueled speculations that the Unit was working on their differences with Game.

Big Suge Might Have A Way Out!

Big Suge has a prayer.

Marion "Big Suge" Knight is facing a murder charge for running over two men at a burger joint near the filming location of the Straight Outta Compton movie. Knight who was former CEO of Death Row Records is a notorious individual. He has ties to the domestic terrorist group The Bloods. He dons the red like it's nothing. He was instrumental in helping Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, and Tupac Shakur obtain multiplatinum albums.

But Big Suge stuck to the g-code and now that code will place his ass in the lockup for the rest of his LIFE.

The LAPD was hoping that Big Suge would slip up. They didn't expect this quickly.

TMZ obtained the gruesome video of Big Suge's Red F150 running over two men.

A jailhouse songbird slammed the LAPD and county prosecutor. He tells the junk food media that he was deliberately placed near

Daniel Timms who was songbird said that prosecutors were coaching him to get Big Suge to show no remorse or say things that could land a conviction.

Now this could be used as defense in the murder trial.

Knowing that Suge has nothing to lose, it's best for him to use this an advantage.

This was one of the many incidents that plagued the controversial media mogul. He and Katt Williams still have to deal with the assault charge for breaking a fan's camera.

50 Cent Saw Bars After He Rapped Bars!

Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson was busted in St. Kitts and Nevis for being himself. The media mogul was cursing in the island nation. It's illegal to cuss in the country.

50 Cent needs to get a travel pamphlet when he travels outside the United States. He certainly has no clue about the laws in foreign nations. He's lucky he's not in Saudi Arabia, Singapore, the United Arab Emirates or North Korea with the blow. 

The rapper would be flogged or shot by state executioners. 

50 Cent was reportedly arrested in the Caribbean nation of St. Kitts and Nevis. 

He dropped "M-fer" on the stage after performing his greatest hits. According to TMZ, Curtis "Money Blowing" Jackson was warned not to use profanity in the nation. He was told by the custom agents. 

While in the nation, he performed around 40,000 people. When the DJ told 50 that he couldn't use the vulgar version of his songs, he said "fuck it". Then when onstage he uttered the word and it got him a night in lockup and a hefty U.S. fine. He sung his hit song, P.I.M.P.

He was booked and spent a night in the lockup. He will appear in court on the charge and be forced to spend a little of his earnings from the concert. 

50 had to lose his passport and travel documents. They want his ass in the courtroom. 

One of 50's roadies was also arrested after he shouted at the law and called them a bunch of....well he's got to lose his travel documents as well. 

50 Cent is innocent until proven guilty. I don't know the laws in St. Kitts and Nevis, but I am guessing it's going to be at least a year in the iron college.

The Roc Had A Taste Of Dirty Sprite!

The Jiggaman working with Future Hendrix.

Looks like DJ Khaled got "another one" on the deck. It's a surprise collaboration on deck and it's gonna be a banger. Jay-Z and Future are going to be on a single together.

What?

Future getting into the studio with Jay-Z. It's the end of the world as we know it.

Atlanta's codeine obsessed trap rapper is working with the Jiggaman.

Future's producer Southside (Sizzle) of 808 Mafia spilled the beans on Shade45 over the weekend.

In an interview with DJ Whoo Kid of the Whoolywood Shuffle, Southside said that Khaled tapped him, Jake One and G-Coup to produce the "untitled" single. It will be released on Apple Music soon.
We the best...!
Khaled has a history of bringing huge names together, so the fact that he is involved makes the Future-Jay-Z pairing more believable. As does the fact that Jay-Z is now Khaled’s manager. This is not the first time Southside has offered a juicy bit of insider information re: Future. In November, he mentioned that Future was sitting on six albums and three mixtapes. (Fewtch has blessed the streets with one album and one mixtape since then.)

Southside mentions the Future-Jay-Z-Khaled single at the 3:30 mark below. The whole 20-minute interview is worth a listen — the Atlanta producer discusses his role in Kanye West’s The Life of Pablo, how he and Waka Flocka changed the sonic landscape of hip hop, the time Kanye told him he was the future of music, and more.

Once again, if you are to get any singles or videos from Drake, Future, DJ Khaled, Eminem, Young Thug, Dr. Dre, and Wiz Khalifa you might have to purchase the singles from APPLE Music.

And of course if you get singles or videos from  Jay-Z, Rihanna, Beyonce, Kanye West and Lil' Wayne you might have to purchase the singles from TIDAL.

Marshall "Rock" Jones Of The Ohio Players Passed Away!

Marshall "Rock" Jones passed away. He was one of the original members of the legendary Ohio Players.

The bassist of the legendary funk band The Ohio Players passed away. Marshall Jones died in his home in Houston, Texas, according to the Associated Press.

Marshall "Rock" Jones was an original member of the Dayton-based funk/rock group. His daughters Donna Williams and Charlotte Phillips had said that their father peacefully in his sleep.

He was one of the original members of The Ohio Players. The band formed in 1959 as the Ohio Untouchables and it included Robert Ward, Clarence "Satch" Satchell, Cornelius Johnson, and Ralph "Pee Wee" Middlebrook. Ward would eventually leave the group and they added LeRoy "Sugarfoot" Bonner to the group and then they would become the legendary Ohio Players.

"We appreciate all of the support and prayers,”  Donna Williams said. “We lost not only a father, a grandfather and an uncle, we lost an icon to the community and an icon to his family.”

The family is planning a memorial in Dayton. Details will be announced later.

James "Diamond" Williams,  the Ohio Players' leader said Jones will be missed.

“He was inventive, and he was creative.  He was a great musician,” said Williams. “Marshall Jones contributed greatly, and we will miss him.”

The Dayton native was 75.

Jones was with the Ohio Players during the height of the legendary band’s success.

He was a member when the group started in Dayton in 1959 as the Ohio Untouchables.

Williams said Jones had battled cancer and had suffered a recent stroke.

He is pushing for a Dayton street to be named for the Ohio Players while some members are still living.

From their beginnings in Dayton, The Ohio Players gained international acclaim with a long list of hits that include "Fire," "Love Rollercoaster," "I Wanna be Free," "Pain," "Funky Worm," "Skin Tight," "Honey" and "Sweet Sticky Thing."

Gucci Mane: Guwop's Thirsty!

Gucci Mane out of federal time out. Plans on releasing a mixtape.

The Atlanta rapper was released from federal time out yesterday. Radric Davis, known to the world as the Gucci Mane was granted freedom from the Terre Haute federal time out.

On top of that, he wants to release a mixtape. Tonight he will release a mixtape at 10:17pm.

A nod to his label 1017 Records.

Big Guwop escaped a 20 year sentence after being hit up with federal charges. Back in 2013, the rapper spazzed out. He was caught in the Atlanta streets with a semi-automatic after binging on the snow. He was quickly arrested and treated for injuries inflicted on himself.

After being sent to detox, he was given the choice, straighten up or face 20 in federal time out.

His lawyers worked out a reasonable sentence. He got three years in federal time out and 10 years of supervised in-house.

Gucci Mane is free man. Well wishes to the King of East Atlanta.

Gucci Mane released over 12 albums and 54 mixtapes.

Ciara: I Have No Love For That Cheating A** Future!

Ludacris and Ciara announced the nominees for the Billboard Music Awards. What A Time To Be Alive was Drake and that other guy Ciara's feuding with album.

Ciara Harris and Nayvadius DeMun Wilborn (aka Future) are at tonight's Billboard Music Awards.

The FutureHIVE hasn't calm down. Future enjoyed another number one album. His surprise album EVOL is platinum and he's on tour with Drake for the "Summer Sixteen". The rapper is also addressing a feud with a rapper named Desiigner.

Desiigner, who I've dubbed Fake Future has a hit called Panda and it's confusing some folks. Some people are saying that's Future.

Future isn't happy about this. He aimed some barbs at the New York rapper who recently signed to Kanye West's GOOD Music label. He believes that this rapper is biting his trademark flow.

Now that's just a minor issue compared to his feud with the ex. The Ciara and Future fallout is blowing up the webs. The feud between the rapper and pop singer has been one of the most talked about issues in the hip-hop community.

Ciara was once engaged to Future. They dated for a few years. She has a son with the rapper. He is the father of four other children. I also disclose that one of my closest cousins had a child with the rapper when he still an underground act. Future and Ciara were the hip-hop couple.

I guess Ciara ignored the cries of the ex-girls and baby mamas. They warned her that Future hasn't cut up his player's card. That card was being maxed out.

Ciara and Future would soon have a nasty fallout. Their son, Future (Nayvadius Zahir Wilburn, Jr.) is the middle of a bitter custody battle.

Ciara was hoping to secure full-time custody of their boy. Future fought that one in children's court.

He ended up getting joint custody of their son. Future and Ciara are in court fighting each other over defamation of character. Future is also urging the judge to lower the child support. He saying that Ciara's fiance Russell Wilson has enough money to take care of them.
My son gives me the power. 
Ciara is hosting the Billboard Music Awards with Ludacris this year.

When the rapper's name was announced, Ciara threw shade on it and Luda had to cover for her. Being a nominee for top rap act, Future is competing against Drake, Silento, Wiz Khalifa and Fetty Wap.

Ludacris had collaborated with both acts in the past. This is his second go around at the Billboard Awards.

You can watch it on ABC right now! I don't watch award shows. They bore me and I don't give two about the celebrities spending a few hours showing themselves off.

Note if you want to hear music or videos from Drake, Wiz Khalifa, Young Thug, Future, Dr. Dre and Eminem, you will have to enroll in Apple Music.

50 Cent Admits He Has Half-a-Brain!



When 50 Cent came to Dayton to promote his Effin Vodka, he took a flight out of Cincinnati.

The rapper was at the Cincinnati Northern Kentucky International Airport in Erlanger, Kentucky.

He shares some of his daily routine on social media and his fans love it.

The rapper whipped out a camera and started filming a worker. He decided to rim on the worker.

The rapper was dumping on a worker by accused him of being high. He said that airport worker Andrew Farrell looks like he's high and retarded. He publicly humiliated the worker on social media.

He was unaware that the worker was autistic.

The capo of The Unit now faces a national backlash from the junk food media for his childish behavior. He managed to get his vodka pulled off the shelves of liquor stores.

He also got tongue lashed by those in the entertainment community for being such an ass.
50 Cent was using his iPhone to mock a Cincinnati airport worker.
50 admits that he's an idiot and released a press statement telling the public he was sorry for acting a fool at the airport. He wrote the apology to Andrew saying it wasn't his intentions to insult a man doing his job.

Farrell said that 50's actions were ignorant and he wants the rapper to meet him at a center for autistic children. So far, no word on 50 making any other appearance since the controversy.

At the local Arrow Spirits and Wine, the owner decided that he's not going to be associated with the rapper's products after he posted that on social media. He thanked 50 for coming to Dayton to give autographs to the shoppers but he doesn't want that reputation to hang on his store.


Who is the most dumbest rapper?

Tyga
Chris Brown
Meek Mill
50 Cent
Kanye West
Future
poll creator


So as you see above, a poll. I added a few new entities to this poll. After all, last poll clearly went to Tyga as being the most dumbest rapper.

Will 50 Cent steal the thunder from Tyga?

50 Cent's Money Pose Lands Him Back In Court!

Far from broke: Appraisers found rapper 50 Cent has more than $64 million in assets and property and over $36 million in liabilities
The king's ransom. The feds are looking into 50 Cent's books and they're finding discrepancies. 

I thought 50 Cent was penniless! I guess he was all the while counting his under the bed stash.

He filed for bankruptcy last year after he loss to the ex-girlfriend of rapper Rick Ross.

The rapper was ordered to pay over $6 million in punitive damages.

Well he may have to face a federal judge in the coming weeks. He made the mistake of being an idiot on social media.

A few months back, the Unit's capo allowed a friend take a picture of him with a pile of money.




The pile of money spelled B-R-O-K-E. That's really classy, 50....make fun of the real situation.

The Daily Mail reports that the 40-year-old rapper also lost a legal battle with his ex-business partners over a failed headphone deal and was slapped with a $17 million judgement in that case.

According to his Chapter 11 petition, Fifty claimed he had assets between $10 to $50 million but that his liabilities were in the same range.

Last month, he filed documents in the bankruptcy stating he only had $16 million in assets.

However, it appears appraisers checked into it all - and found his assets total over $64 million and that he only has liabilities totaling more than $36 million.

In addition, 50 Cent's current monthly income is $184,000-plus. The appraisers also valued his home goods to $131,000 including $49,000 in jewelry alone.

Appraisers found he has over $10 million in checking and stocks as well as his various G-Unit and other business' which are worth over $44 million.

His bankruptcy claims have come into question by Judge Ann Nevins, who is concerned over his actual need for bankruptcy and has asked for him to explain a series of photographs he posted to social media.

Today is his former rival Ja Rule's birthday. Ja Rule (born Jeffery Atkins) was born on February 29. He turns 40 years old today. I wonder which day would he celebrate his birthday on the off years!

 I bet you money that Ja isn't sweating over money!

Former pop singer Denise "Vanity" Matthews passed away.

A bit of sad news happened to hit the junk food media. Singer/actress Denise Matthews best known as Vanity passed away in California after fighting sclerosis. That along with peritonitis and kidney disease was the contributing factors to her death.

Prince groomed this young Canadian singer named Denise Matthews. She would call herself Vanity and help build a group. The group Vanity 6 recorded their only album by the same name. The album is credited for the successful singles "Nasty Girl" and "Drive Me Wild".

Vanity would end up going solo. She end up releasing the albums Wild Animal and Skin on Skin with the hits "Pretty Mess", "Mechanical Emotion" and "Under the Influence".

Vanity would also take up a gig in acting. She appeared in the movies The Last Dragon, 52 Pick-Up and Action Jackson.

During her rise, she fell victim to the "Rock Star Lifestyle". She was addicted to crack cocaine and heroin. She would end up having kidney failure and for the remainder of her life she would undergo peritoneal dialysis five times a day.

She had dated Prince, Adam Ant and Bill Idol. She also was engaged to Nikki Sixx of Motley Crue.

She had a brief marriage to Anthony Smith of the Oakland Raiders. That marriage ended after he got caught up in a murder. Smith is serving LIFE in the iron college.

After a night of binging on crack cocaine, she suffered a nearly fatal renal failure.

That near death experience made her realize that her life was spiraling out of control. In the late 1990s, she would end up becoming a born-again Christian and gave up her Hollywood and music career.

She would become a Christian motivational speaker and renounced the name of Vanity.
