| Rapper
Shot / Arrested |
hecklerspray reports: It's been ages since
a rapper got shot, we were beginning to wonder what was up with them all.
It's been reported, though, that Fabolous is in hospital after being shot
in the thigh last night.
News is coming in that Fabolous is in a
stable condition after an unknown gunman shot him in the thigh outside
a garage in New York in the early hours of this morning. However, Fabolous
and three friends have also been arrested for having two apparently unlicensed
guns in their possession, but that's unimportant - we're just so glad that
the rapper shooting drought has ended that we're willing to overlook the
arrests, and also the fact that we don't have a bleeding clue who Fabolous
actually is.[see full story for more]- Click

| K-Fed
Ass Kicked |
TMZ reports: Perhaps you have seen Kevin Federline
in all his slacker glory and thought to yourself, "Man, I would love to
body slam that guy!" Well, WWE champ John Cena has lived out your fantasy.
During a taped episode of "Monday Night
RAW" last week in Los Angeles, Federline made a surprise appearance in
the ring and received a chorus of boos from the sold-out crowd at the Staples
Center. After an argument between K-Fed and Cena got a little physical,
Cena unleashed his signature move -- the F-U slam -- on Mr. PopoZao
. John
Cena, you have acted on the wishes of millions. For that, we salute you.

| Happy
Birthday Chuck |
AP reports: As he turns 80 Wednesday, Chuck
Berry could leave the hard work of great music to younger souls, and rest
comfortably as the rock `n' roll legend who first made his mark in the
1950s.
But Berry, the duck-walking, guitar-playing
rock genius who defined the music's joy and rebellion in such classics
as "Johnny B. Goode," "Sweet Little Sixteen" and "Roll Over Beethoven,"
has plenty left to say and play. [see full story to find out what]-
