I’m always amazed by the kind of designs that Nike puts out. Over the years I’ve developed an attraction to their various styles of print, color and texture. This reminds me that I need to buy new Nikes…
These are cool! But not for me. These were designed by Daniel Reese and are $220 a pop! (k no thnx I don’t pay that much for my sneakers haha) Cool to look at but not cool enough to rock on my feet.

A sperm bank in Los Angeles (no surprise there!) is letting YOU pick the sperm donor yourself based on what celebrity they look like. There are many celebrities within this search including those above, Adam Brody, James Franco, Ryan Gosling and many others. Because who doesn’t want their child to be a hot piece of ass when they grow up right? The only problem is that you can’t totally confirm that the donor looks like who they say they look like. Let’s just hope that honesty wins this time.

Incest much?
Michael Jackson knew what he was doing when he raised his kids by keeping them out of the public eye. It makes sense doesn’t it? He went through the exact same thing and through unconventional ways, he kept them hidden for 12 years. Yesterday, at the memorial was the first time we ever heard Paris speak out. The sad truth is this: now that Michael is gone, who will continue to protect these kids? Who is going to stop the press from publishing these never before seen pictures like WHO Australia has? This is just the beginning. The papparazi will be all over them from the minute they step out of their house because everyone is curious. Who will Michael Jackson’s kids grow up to be?
I never really planned on tuning in until I was driving home from class today listening to the radio station when they were doing live coverage and then at that point, I realized this is a BIG moment. Michael Jackson only dies once, he’s not like Tupac who keeps mysteriously coming back and what not. This isn’t going to happen again so I probably shouldn’t miss this. So I raced home, and was glued to the spot in front of my television for a good hour until it was over? I came in when Usher was performing. I thought the memorial was nicely put together. It wasn’t rushed, there weren’t any unnecessary distractions and that’s how it was supposed to be. It honored his life and showed the audience like, “Hey, this is what you didn’t know about Michael Jackson, and he was a great guy because xy and z.”
No matter, how many stories we hear about him, his surgeries, the little boys and scandals, his family, etc etc, I think we have to recognize the fact that we don’t really know him at all. He was a complicated man, I’m sure and probably confused at a lot of things, look at the way he grew up. Marlon Jackson said it best, “Maybe they will all leave you alone now.” There’s no need to bring up anything in the past anymore because he is gone. And when Paris stepped up to the mic, my heart went out to her. If she says he’s a great daddy then he is, but we would have never known.

Michael Jackson’s death has inspired rapper Mase to make his comeback in the music industry. This is…news! I still remember when my brother and I would rap and sing a long to his songs when I was seven years old. No joke.
Before Diddy went through a slew of name changes, way back in the day, Mase was brought in and signed to Diddy’s label where the two of them collaborated on many songs together.
So what will be Mase’s first release in five years? A remix of Drake’s “Best I Ever Had.”
Meet his coffin. $35,000. 18k Gold. Enough said.
The memorial service is tomorrow and Michael Jackson will be buried at 8 AM
Edit:
my bad I don’t know what time he’s being buried at, the memorial service just ended though
It never ends…
Michael Jackson’s memorial service will be held Tuesday, July 7th at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.
But if you wish to pay your respects you best pay up cause like Mike, he isn’t cheap. $25 is the cost to attend this fest that will be filled with crazed fans, celebrities and friends and family.
The memorial service will feature music, guest speakers and video screens both in and outside of the Staples Center.
Expected guests include both Elizabeth Taylor and Dianna Ross. It doesn’t matter how much you decide to shell out for that ticket, if you’re a normie you will be in the stands while friends, family and VIP’s will be on the floor.
Vendors will sell Michael’s “This Is It” tour T-shirts outside of the venue as well. The service will be held between 10AM and Noon July 7th.
