Did Michael Jackson Secretly Marry His Children's Nanny?

Michael Jackson has secretly wed his children's long-serving nanny, according to shocking new reports. Despite denials from the pop superstar's camp, the National Enquirer has printed copies of a new real estate document, in which Jackson states he's married.

And now sources close to the King Of Pop have confirmed Jackson wed 40-year-old Grace Rwaramba in Las Vegas earlier this year.


[Grace Rwaramba sounds like a name of African descent, so I'm assuming this story is 100% false.]

Okayyyyy...




Usher's wife Tameka Foster is suffering from an unusual craving during her pregnancy - she is constantly eating ice.

Foster is expected to give birth to the couple's first child this winter and the 37-year-old stylist is struggling to keep up with her "weird" obsession with ice.

She tells People.com, "I eat ice all day. It's a weird thing. I love it. Now I'm thinking about ice. I want to find some ice."

[Why must we know about this? Ursh and his generic pregnancy stories need more people. If he says anything about a pickle and sardine sandwich, he heard that off of an episode of Designing Women.]


More Profile Photos of Tameka Foster-Raymond







[I've always found the way that Tameka clasps on to Usher peculiar. It's not a "I'm so in love" type thing...I don't know. Here's Tameka in a photo with Jamie Foster-Brown, Usher and one of her sons:



You see? This pic is saying a hell of a lot. She's behaving like he's her first high school boyfriend.]

NFL Star Realizes Hoes Don't Equal Happiness



Giants (NFL) player Will Demps, 27, tells Essence some women's scheming ways can sideline a pro athlete's attempts to score a lasting commitment

I've gotten far in my career using my strength and athletic skill. When I'm in game mode, I'm focused-no distractions, no lapses of concentration. But when it comes to groupies, I am constantly reminded just how weak my flesh can be.

Groupies are everywhere I go. They study the football schedule for whatever city I'm in that week and after a game, will stand shivering in the cold, waiting for me to walk by and take notice. Or they go to the club ahead of time, scheming to cop VIP access. They hang in packs like vultures at the venues thick with players, posed with breasts spilling out of their shirts.

They try to look innocent, and if I happen to strike up a conversation with one, she might pretend she doesn't know that I play for the New York Giants, but I know better. In fact, most groupies have done their research beforehand, using Google to find out my salary and other personal details. They don't care to get to know me as a person or share my triumphs and pains. All they see are dollar signs and a free ride.

[Duuuuh! Glad you realized it before it was too late. ]
