ON TV: "I ALMOST GOT AWAY WITH IT" (s2) EP.6


INTERVIEW: (FABOLOUS BM) EMILY FROM LOVE AND HIP HOP ATL SHOWS OFF HER SHOE COLLECTION

If you thought your fancy footwear was on point, take a look at Love & Hip Hop’s Emily B show off her shoe game inside the upcoming issue of Pynk Magazine.
During the interview Emily opened up about the most she’s ever spent on shoes, what shoe every girl should have in her closet & her upcoming fashion line


INTERVIEW:
What’s the most you’ve spent on one pair of shoes?
$5000. And they were special edition – crystallized, but I would never do it again. It would have to be a very special occasion. Other than that, I don’t want to spend over $3000. Never again.
Do you find that your passion for shoes influences you as a stylist?
It’s just a part of being a stylist. I love to shop, I love fashion, and I love girly things. Shoes are definitely an inspiration for me. I start off with the shoes and work my way up and around it.
Tell us about some of your entrepreneurial pursuits.
I’m actually starting my own clothing line, called Emily B. It’s going to be feminine, chic, trendy, and of course, affordable. I want to start a line that all women and young girls of all ages can wear and afford.
What’s the perfect PYNK girl shoe?
Every girl should own a good black pump, even if it’s just an open-toed pump. It’s versatile — she can wear it with anything, she can wear it with jeans, she can dress it up and wear it out with a cocktail dress…


DID U HEAR: THE REAL RICK ROSS LOSES LAWSUIT... HAS TO PAY $5OOK FOR RICKY ROZAY COURT COST

Freeway Ricky Ross
The court battle between THE REAL RICKY ROSS Vs. RICKY ROZAY took a twist in court today (August 2), when a judged ruled that Freeway Ricky Ross must pay the rap star’s attorney fees and court costs, after losing a round in a battle for the rights to his own name and image.
Freeway Ricky Ross was in court today in front of Judge Rita Miller, who is presiding over trademark infringement case. Miller ruled that Freeway Ricky Ross must pay $500,000 in attorney fees and court costs on behalf of Rick Ross, born William Leonard Roberts II.
Lawyers for Freeway Ricky Ross unsuccessfully argued that each time Rick Ross mentioned the name in trade – in print, radio, or on the internet, that is was a re-usage of his name, which should have extended the statute of limitations.
Judge Miller upheld an earlier ruling, that stated that the statute of limitations of two years in regards to filing a complaint over the name had passed. In March of 2009, the lawsuit was dismissed from federal court.
“We believe that every time he goes on the radio he’s re-using my name, but the judge ruled that it’s one continuous use,” Freeway Ricky Ross explained to AllHipHop.com in an exclusive interview. “I believe that those are all re-uses of my name, separate and different from when he started to call himself Rick Ross. They were trying to get me to pay $1.3 million, but she [Judge Miller] knocked it down to $500k.
Still, Rick Ross himself must fork over $800,000 in lawyers fees and court costs related to the case.
“It aint over and it aint never gonna be over until things get straight,” Freeway Ricky Ross promised AllHipHop.com. “I aint gonna stop, I am going to keep going until I get my name back and whatever else I got coming.”
In July, a judge ruled that Freeway Ricky Ross could bring a lawsuit against Warner Music Group, which has officially been filed, according to the reformed Los Angeles drug kingpin.
Freeway Ricky served over 20 years in prison for cocaine distribution, but his activities, which earned an estimated $600 million, reverberated to the highest levels of government in the United States, via the Iran-Contra scandal.
Freeway Ricky Ross’ story was also the subject of a series of groundbreaking articles titled “Dark Alliance” which were written by Pulitzer Prize winning journalist Gary Webb, who was a writer for the San Jose Mercury News when the articles were published.
Gary Webb eventually committed suicide due to the fall-out over the subsequent press and investigations into his articles, which accused the CIA of being complicit in a conspiracy to introduce crack cocaine to the streets of Los Angeles, in order to fund a foreign war.
Freeway Ricky Ross took issue with Rick Ross’ testimony that his name “Rick Ross” was derived from a nickname he used when he was an All-American Football player at Carol City High School.
“He never even played for the team,” Freeway Ricky Ross told AllHipHop.com. ” And for somebody to say they never heard of me erroneous. He’s supposed to be a connoisseur of gangsterism and he never heard of Rick Ross? Come it’s crazy. I don’t know who he thinks I am, [but] he better check my rep, cause I aint gonna give up.”
Freeway Ricky Ross said that he is in the process of deposing a number of executives who were associated with Rick Ross, including Sean “Diddy” Combs and veteran executive Todd Moscowitz, who is currently President/CEO of Warner Brothers Records, which distributes Rick Ross’ Maybach Music Group.

GTV NEWS: GAS PRICES MAY HIT $4 GAL




Another jump at the gas pump kicked in this week, and the price of fuel is only expected to increase. It could hit $4 per gallon Thursday, experts said. 

The popular price at gas stations on Wednesday was $3.79 per gallon for regular unleaded fuel. "Jobs are few, you know, economy is real bad, so I think this gas price is ridiculous," said driver Linda Watson. For some, the price of fuel is becoming a serious problem. "I'm at the point right now where if it made it up to $4, I might not be able to make it to work," said driver Emily Blocker. GasBuddy.com tweeted a warning Wednesday that gas prices could be just pennies from $4 per gallon in the next 24 to 48 hours. GasBuddy senior petroleum analyst Patrick DeHaan explained why we're seeing the increase now.
"A lot of the reason for the increase is a lot of refining issues that have crept up all at once, as well as some pipeline problems that have surfaced in the last few days." 

DeHaan pointed to three Midwest refineries suffering issues in the last few days and Enbridge having to close a pipeline because of a leak in Wisconsin. "I can't be surprised when I look at consumption going up and the global supply of petroleum is limited, there's only one answer: Prices are going to go up. So I'm not surprised," said driver Tom Cary. But Watson said the price has forced her to change the way she lives. "You have to give up on something, because you have to go to work. You have to give up something because you've got to buy it." GasBuddy officials expect to see the price spike around noon Thursday. They say gas prices could stay at or above $4 per gallon for at least a couple of weeks.
