Hip-Hop Rumors: Wait, So Queen Latifah Didn't Come Out?

By: ginatorres27Category: MOBILE

Last month, Queen Latifah headlined the Long Beach Lesbian and Gay Pride Festival and during her set, she was quoted as saying a few things that many took as her implying that she was “coming out of the closet.” The online media ran with it, and many people reported that she had indeed finally come out of the closet.

Well, Queen Latifah wants you to know that she was misconstrued. Check out what she told Entertainment Weekly in a recent interview:

“That definitely wasn’t the case. I’ve never dealt with the question of my personal life in public. It’s just not gonna happen.”

Although Latifah didn’t admit to being a lesbian, she still showed support for the gay community, saying:

“To me, doing a gay pride show is one of the most fun things. My first show that paid more than $10,000 was in a gay club on New Year’s Eve in San Francisco. Tupac happened to be in town, so he came to kick it with me. This was the early ’90s. And the boys were like, ‘Take your shirt off, Tupac!’ He wasn’t doing that. But we had a blast in there.”

Well, there you have it. Queen Latifah is not gay, and those women you always see her around…yeah, those are just her friends.

Non Hip-Hop Rumors: Raz B Says Sorry To Chris Brown & Maybach O?

By: Chuck Creekmur (@ChuckCreekmur)Category: MOBILE

I cannot call this, but I thought I would pass it along. One of my sources hit me up and told me that Raz-B isn’t working on any sort of book that will expose a bunch of singers as as gay. Click here for the rumor. The source that hit me up said that he’s focused on his family, not yanking people out of the closet. The source also indicated that Raz is now a born again Christian and that these people are lying. “We do apologized to the fans and Chris Brown n B2K. Bow Wow for the foolishness at this time. sincerely,” in a statement allegedly from Raz-B himself. Why he could apologize for somebody else, I don’t know. This is probably more BS from Raz-B.

Maybach O made this fool say sorry like the Gangster he IZ!

Ask Ash Cash: How Can I Eat Healthy and Still Save Money?

Greetings and Salutations!! Today’s Ask Ash Cash segment offers some quick tips on how you can “Eat Healthy and Still Save Money,” asked by Katie… Remember if you have any questions, please send them to [email protected] or ask via twitter @IamAshCAsh using
#AskAshCash

Dear Ash Cash: I recently created a budget and noticed that the majority of my money is going towards food. I am eating healthy now so that may be the reason why its so high; as you know healthy food is expensive…. So How Can I eat Healthy and Still save money?

Hi Katie, Eating healthy and saving money may sound like an oxymoron, but there are actually ways to make this happen. As we know, when you are buying fast food, it is common knowledge that healthy food is expensive, and unhealthy food is cheap. But if you started cooking more
at home, you would begin to see a significant shift in your wallet size. This is the most important change you can make to save money. When you eat out, what you are paying for is convenience, and with convenience comes a hefty price. Also try shopping in advance so that you always have something available to cook at home to avoid the temptation of eating out. Lastly, buy in bulk… Places like Costco, Sam’s Club, or even BJ’s can provide you deep discounts if you buy in bulk.
