The Scene Is R. Kelly loose in the Q.C.?
Posted By Cheris Hodges on Sat, Mar 1, 2008 at 3:19 AM
Partiers at BackStage say that R. Kelly didn't show up at Friday's party. I wonder if anyone checked across the street at the skating rink?
Traffic Uptown was horrible, but what was even worse were those drivers who thought that you were supposed to let them in front of you. We've all been sitting in the same fucking traffic; why should I be nice when I'm tired, too?!
And big shouts to the Golden Bulls, the men and women made it to the finals of the CIAA basketball tournament.

The Scene It's hard out here for a pimp
Posted By Cheris Hodges on Fri, Feb 29, 2008 at 12:57 AM
Thursday night at the CIAA was a show. First of all, Floyd "Money" Mayweather, marched into Bobcats arena with nine dudes. Maybe it's just me, but why does a man who knocks people the hell out for a living need so many security guards?
You expect to see Mr. CIAA dressed in loud and colorful suits. But on regular everyday dudes, well, it just looks like big pimping. There was a man in a hot pink suit, and he thought he looked good. I thought, it's a little early for Easter, sir. And then there was the Bishop Don Juan wannabe in the burgandy fur coat. He even had a glittering gold tooth to go along with his outfit.
Check out the pictures.
