Rihanna Was Looking Chic In Black On The Red Carpet!

Rihanna looks absolutely magnificent in this tux.I'm glad to see that she's looking stunning & is out & about.She has picked up the pieces quite nicely.Here's more on her reemergence from The Age:

"Rihanna has made her first appearance on the red carpet after her ex-boyfriend Chris Brown allegedly beat her up, but then cancelled a concert in Dubai next month.


The Dubai concert was to be Rihanna's first singing performance since the allegedly assault.


Yassin Matbouly, managing director of Vibe Entertainment Management Agency, said the Dubai-based promoter got "nothing in writing" from Rihanna's agents but was made to understand from managers negotiating the May 28 gig in the Gulf sheikdom that it won't work out.


The development came shortly after the pop star made a comeback on the red carpet in New York, arriving late Monday at the annual Costume Institute of The Metropolitan Museum gala. She did not speak to the press."(END OF EXCERPT)Read the rest here.

Procter & Gamble's Issue: Some Of Their Products May Be Contaminated With Filth!

Procter & Gamble is a multinational manufacturer of consumer goods ranging from over-the-counter drugs to disposable diapers.The FDA issued a warning to the company about the "unsanitary conditions" that some of their products have been processed in.A whole lot of people buy their products,so this is quite alarming!Here's more from The AP:

"U.S. regulators warned Procter & Gamble Co. over unsanitary conditions at a plant that makes Olay skin care products and Vicks cold medicine in Puerto Rico, according to a letter released Tuesday.

The warning letter from the Food and Drug Administration said problems at the Olay LLC plant in Cayey may have caused contamination or threatened the health of consumers. It faulted failures in following procedures for cleaning maintenance equipment.

An inspection found over-the-counter drug products have been "prepared, packed and held under unsanitary conditions whereby they may have been contaminated with filth or rendered injurious to health," said the letter.

Paul Fox, a spokesman for Cincinnati-based Procter & Gamble, said none of the issues raised by the FDA compromised the safety of any products.

But he said FDA inspectors did identify areas "where we can and will make improvements," and the company has begun a review of the plant's manufacturing practices."(END OF EXCERPT)Read the rest here.

Kelis Has Decided To Divorce Nas,Even Though She's 7 Months Pregnant!

When I heard that Kelis was dissolving her marriage to Nas,I immediately thought about the fact that she is 7 months pregnant! Believe me,your hormones are all over the place when you are carrying a new life. I couldn't help but wonder if that had anything to do with it.

Whatever the reason,it's just too bad that Kelis & Nas couldn't make their black love last.According to TMZ,she is asking for both spousal & child support.In addition to that,she wants joint physical & legal support.Here's more from Vibe:

"One of hip hop’s most talked about married couples have split. VIBE has confirmed that Nas and Kelis are headed for a divorce. “I can confirm that she has filed for divorce,” a spokesperson for Kelis told VIBE. “We request the media to respect her privacy during this very difficult time.” At around 3:45pm PST, high-powered attorney Laura Wasser (who has also represented Britney Spears, Angelina Jolie, and Stevie Wonder) filed a divorce petition today on behalf of Kelis, citing irreconciable differences. The bombshell comes amid recent reports that the acclaimed rhymer and influential R&B vixen were expecting their first child together—a son. Kelis is currently seven months pregnant.

It was only last February when Nas spoke excitedly to MTV about the prospect of having a baby with Kelis. “Yeah, man, I find out what it's gonna be next week, so I'm happy," said the multiplatinum rapper, who also has a 15-year-old daughter from a previous relationship.

Nas and Kelis first met in 2002 at a MTV Video Music Awards afterparty thrown by hip hop mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs."(END OF EXCERPT)Read the rest here.
