BECKHAM ISN'T EXACTLY KNOWN FOR HIS BRAIN "David Beckham was happy to meet Entourage actor Rex Lee at Jermaine Dupri's birthday bash in Chicago. The only problem? 'It wasn't the real Rex Lee,' laughed a spy, 'and Becks brought him into the VIP area and spent the whole night drinking with him!'"

Someone came close to shooting Diddy over the weekend, threatening our access to his enlightening YouTube videos and 15 more seasons of Making the Band.
Diddles was at an Atlanta club attending a Jermaine Dupri-hosted party along with Nelly, Usher and Gabrielle Union. A gunman opened fire inside the bar after allegedly being charged twice for admission. One security guard was struck in the arm, but no other guests were injured.
Fortunately, Jermaine hasn't lost the true meaning of all this:
Dupri has vowed to continue partying after a security guard was hit at the party, insisting the incident won't prevent him from partying in the future.

Scarlett Johansson wasted no time in debuting her engagement ring from fiancé Ryan Reynolds at last night's Costume Institute Gala at NYC's Metropolitan Museum of Art. Pretty much every celebrity you can imagine was in attendance (except for Reynolds), and 95 percent of the wardrobe choices made our heart cry.

Despite telling Parade magazine that she is a marriage jinx, rumors are swirling that Janet Jackson is going to be walking down the aisle again.
Although the pop star has remained mum on her engagement to rapper Jermaine Dupri, she recently hit up designers like Badgley Mischka, asking for bridal gown samples. 'She's preparing for her private nuptials,' said one source.
We think it's best for celebrities to skip the whole marriage thing — it means no messy divorce proceedings later. But congrats, Janet! … We give it two years.

Look! It's me, Cord, with Trent from Pink Is the New Blog. (Search Mollygood on Wikipedia and it takes you to his entry. Weird, but I'm too indifferent to change it.) Where did this meeting of the typists occur? At In Touch magazine's fifth anniversary party. There was much to behold, and we beheld all of it. Boy did I dance badly, but to what I can't remember on account of being slightly tipsy. Drinking is an absolute necessity when swimming with the heeled and hatted sharks that attend these things. After the jump, the stories!

Holy cluster fuck, Pap Man!
I haven't seen such a hodge podge of celebrities since May of 1988: the last Battle of The Network Stars. Last night's post-VMA party at TAO wasn't a battle, but there may have been some casualties.
See what happens when Jermaine Dupri, Nelly and Travis Barker are picked to host an MTV party and celebrities stop being polite - and start getting drunk.

Travis Barker, shown here with on-again, off-again (on-again, off-again, on-again, off-again) girlfriend (wife?) Shanna Moakler, hosted a party last night to celebrate the opening of his store The Fast Life. One must imagine that when he's not spending 30 minutes on his hair—or sitting around for hours getting tattooed—is when Travis lives his "fast life."
Several more after the jump.

Jennifer Lopez has released new details about her upcoming album, Brave.
It's produced by Swizz Beatz, Timbaland Cory Rooney, Jermaine Dupri, newcomers Lynn & Wade LLP and Jonathan Rotem. Speaking about the record, Jennifer recently said: "It's coming out incredible. We're putting together some great things, and not what everyone's expecting. Think a little Jamiroquai, a little Sade. It's real feel-good music."
Sources in the know have begged to differ, noting that while the music will probably be "feel-good," it most definitely won't be "real."

Diminutive producer Jermaine Dupri has reportedly said he's intentionally pitting girlfriend Janet Jackson against extravagant screecher Mariah Carey in a charts war scheduled for next year. Adding jerk to stupid, Dupri will be producing Mariah Carey's album, leaving production duties of Janet's record up to friend LA Reid. Quote Dupri, "I'm going to do Mariah, and we're going to make it seem like we're in competition to see who's going to have the biggest album of the year." I'm sure Janet's really excited about this. And I'm sure women everywhere are excited to know that male puppet masters still get a kick out of playing with their dolls every once in a while.

Whenever I hear some jackass screaming, "Niggers are noisy, primitive, arrogant and obsessed with conspicuous consumption," I'm sickened by the hate. But then I'll come across photos like these depicting a few of the world's most recognizable black millionaires brandishing bottles of expensive liquor and literally throwing away money, and I'm even more sickened by the betrayal.
Basically, the scourge of the Revolutionary War was sad, but Benedict Arnold was sadder.

The annnual BET Awards took place in Los Angeles last night, bringing with it a bevy of women who were taller than their dates. An exception of course being Beyonce, who shined in a dress fashioned out of a trash bag and LeBron James whose girlfriend Savannah looks like she might still be in high school. The big winners for the evening were Kanye West, Jamie Foxx (unfortunately, someone stop giving this ego machine awards, please), Mary J. Blige, and newcomer Chris Brown. I think we can all see that the big loser of the night was whatever poor animal Andre 3000 killed and attached to his pants.
