Nicki Minaj Unveils New Album Cover…SAME DAY AS RIHANNA!

Competition? Why yes she would love some. Amidst the chaos that ensued only moments ago when Rihanna took to twitter to upload a photo of the album cover (which left much to be desired by the way) via Instagram, Nicki Minaj followed suit. Minaj uploaded a photo for the re-release of her not-so-good album Pink Friday titled “Pink Friday Roman Reloaded: The Re-Up” and now the twittersphere is going insane over what can only be defined as “trashy album cover day”. The album cover gives the old Nicki feel (before that Starships era). Check out the photo below:

Rihanna Unveils New Album Cover and Album Title

 

The name of Rihanna’s seventh studio album is…. Side Effects

Check out the official artwork above. Thoughts?

Well at first glance it seems artistic, then when I look at it all I see is a plain picture of RiRi with random words scribbled on the photos. It almost looks at if a few mimes gathered together and circle jerked on her and BOOM, the album cover.

But hey, she’s Rihanna, does she ever make sense?

Prince Harry Naked Scandal GREAT for Vegas

0821-prince-harry-nude-naked-article-tmz-top-4
Prince Harry‘s penis is being hailed as a HERO by Vegas officials … ’cause experts say the free worldwide publicity Sin City enjoyed from the naked billiards scandal is worth roughly $23 MILLION.The Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority issued a report, in which it says the pictures of Harry romping around his hotel room with a hot naked lady has reached an estimated 154 MILLION PEOPLE worldwide since TMZ broke the story back in August.

The agency says it’s unable to track how much tourism has been generated due to the publicity … but LVCVA Board Chairman Tom Collins is clearly optimistic … saying at a recent board meeting, “God bless Prince Harry. He made us a bunch of money.”

FYI — The LVCVA had launched an advertising campaign for the city earlier in the summer warning tourists to “know the code” … what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.

When someone broke the code and shared the pics of the naked Prince, some officials felt the timing couldn’t have been better.

Lindsay Lohan Bailed Mama Out of Foreclosure

1010_dina_lindsay_tmz
Lindsay Lohan
was telling the truth when she said her mom was on the verge of losing her house …and Dina Lohanis not out of the woods yet.According to court docs, JPMorgan Chase Bank filed documents in 2010 to foreclose on Dina’s Long Island home because she had fallen behind on payments.Now here’s where it gets interesting …The bank and Dina cut some sort of deal in which mama Lohan agreed to a new payment agreement that would prevent her home from going on the auction block.

Sources close to Lindsay tell us … Dina didn’t ante up on her own — she got money from Lindsay to make the payments.

We’re told Lindsay made payments that helped Dina dig out of the hole, but recently she fell behind again and Lindsay had to give her MORE bailout money — $40,000. And that’s the 40 grand that Lindsay and her mom were arguing over when things erupted in the limo early Wednesday.

One final thing. We’re told Dina withdrew lots of other money from the Bank of Lindsay, including money to help pay for her kid brother’s tuition.

Jay Leno Makes Awkward Jokes About Tyler Perry’s Butt, Tyler Responds: ‘What is it with you and my ass?’ [Video]

Tyler Perry was supposed to appear on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno to talk about his new film, Alex Cross, but the conversation quickly turned into a free-for-all roast session centered around Tyler’s backside.

Tyler Perry gave up a lot of control when he took on the title role in the upcoming “Alex Cross” film. The movie is based on the popular book series, and will mark the first time Perry has starred in a film he didn’t direct, produce or write. But none of that was as interesting to Jay Leno on “The Tonight Show” as Perry’s butt.

Perry opened it up by talking about his 8-week vacation in the Bahamas, He said he went “butt-naked” on the beach there, and then told Leno he could ask any questions he wanted. From there, the conversation kept going back to Perry’s butt, with both men guilty of taking it back there time and time again.

Once, when Perry brought it up, Leno retorted, “It always comes back to your ass. Why is that?” But it wasn’t much later that it was Leno who quipped, “Now you got the buns of steel going on.”

“What is it with you and my ass, man?” Perry then asked him. Whichever man was at fault, Tyler Perry’s backside absolutely dominated the conversation, which was certainly cracking the audience up.

Tyler Perry stars in “Alex Cross,” opening nationwide on Friday,, October 19. Catch “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno” weeknights at 11:35 p.m. ET on NBC.

Lance Armstrong 11 Cycling Teammates RATTED Me Out

1010_lance_armstrong_article
11 former members of Lance Armstrong‘s United States Postal Service cycling team TURNED on the disgraced athlete — and testified against him in an investigation by the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency.

The USADA announced … the cyclists who provided evidence to the organization include George Hincapie, Tyler Hamilton and disgraced former Tour de France champ Floyd Landis.

“The U.S.P.S. Team doping conspiracy was professionally designed to groom and pressure athletes to use dangerous drugs, to evade detection, to ensure its secrecy and ultimately gain an unfair competitive advantage through superior doping practices,” the USADA said in a statement.

“A program organized by individuals who thought they were above the rules and who still play a major and active role in sport today.”

The USADA says its investigation into Armstrong uncovered “the most sophisticated, professionalized and successful doping program that sport has ever seen.”

As we previously reported, Lance has been banned from cycling for life.
