      <title><![CDATA[THE GAME'S TRIBUTE TO MICHAEL JACKSON]]></title>
      <link>http://ghettofabu.blogspot.com/2009/07/games-tribute-to-michael-jackson.html</link>
      <description><![CDATA[The first official and best sounding tribute to Michael Jackson is West Coast rapper The Game. On the track is The Game, PDiddy, Chris Brown and Boyz II Men.   Check it out! Also , check out the interview the The Game did with CNN on the motivation of the song and where the proceeds of the money will be going from the song.CNN: You may be the first well-known artist to have a Michael Jackson tribute out there. The Game: I didn't want to wake up the next morning and have somebody spread a tribute all over the Internet, and I wasn't a part of it. So I decided to take matters into my own hands.CNN: Did you already have the beats pre-recorded?The Game: No. The first thing I did was call DJ Khalil ... and I told him, "Yo, I need you in the studio, and by the time I get there, I need a Michael Jackson tribute song made [the music bed]. I need violinists, I need pianists, I need everyone in there for a production."And then I started reaching out to Diddy. He's on a set 18 hours a day, but he said he'd get it done some way, somehow. Talked to Chris Brown. He and [his manager] Tina Davis said they were on their way to the studio -- so they told me after I do my part, to bring it over and Chris will do the hook. Before I took the beat over to Chris, Boyz II Men walked into the studio randomly -- so they took it to their studio next door, laid down all the background vocals.Then I took it to Mario [Winans], then I took it to Diddy. In the meantime, me and my boy Taydoe -- we running around to the hospital, to the Jacksons' house, to the star on Hollywood, getting all this [secondary] footage [for the video]. Crazy.CNN: This was the day he died, on Thursday?The Game: It was just the day. By Friday, everything was done -- video, everything. We did it in 15 hours. CNN: You made the music video for $500.The Game: All in tapes, $500 went to tapes, HD high-definition tapes.CNN: At the end of the video, you reveal a new tattoo.The Game: Yeah, I'll show you. I thought if I was going to get a Michael Jackson tattoo, I would get a more menacing one. (The tattoo shows the "King of Pop" with a bandanna over the lower half of his face.)CNN: Had you ever met Michael?The Game: I never met him in person, but he tried to mediate a truce between myself and Curtis Jackson [aka 50 Cent], and I wasn't having it at that time.CNN: How did that happen? Did somebody call you and say, "Please hold the line for Michael Jackson?"The Game: At first my managers called me and they said, "Mike -- Michael Jackson -- is going to want to talk to you in an hour. Exactly an hour." So I waited an hour, and I'm like chewing on my fingers in the hotel room ... and the phone rings and a guy comes on and he's got an English accent. He's like (affects an English accent), "Hello Game, I have Michael Jackson on hold for you." It was just cool.So Michael comes on, and ... he was like, "Yo, it's Mike, and I'm a big fan of your music," and starts going into my songs, "Hate it or Love It" and "How We Do." And he's like, "I'm a big fan of 50's -- every time I get in the car, I tell my driver to play 'In Da Club.' Would you guys be willing to make a truce, and then put it on my album?"Read the rest here]]></description>

      <title><![CDATA[SARAH PALIN STEPS DOWN AS GOV. OF ALASKA]]></title>
      <link>http://ghettofabu.blogspot.com/2009/07/sarah-palin-steps-down-as-gov-of-alaska.html</link>
      <description><![CDATA[

Gov. Sarah Palin announced Friday that she will step down as Alaska's chief executive by the end of the month. She will not seek election to a second gubernatorial term in 2010.
Per sources, Palin's return to her home state has been a rocky one. Beyond a flood of ethics complaints  most of which have been dismissed  the governor was forced to backtrack on her decision to reject federal stimulus funds, her pick for attorney general was rejected by an increasingly hostile legislature, and her personal life has continued to grab headlines.

 There has to be something else behind this.  This announcement on this day did not just happen by chance. Watch the video!

      <description><![CDATA[AEG Inc., the promoters of the Michael Jackson tour has released clips of the last rehearsals of Michael Jackson.  Everybody saying that Michael was looking great, but I say he did look a little frail in the video. Definitely a whole lot skinner than the previous Michael Jackson we had seen before. Michael Jackson will be laid to rest on July 7, 2009 @ The Staples Center in Los Angeles, CA. RIP MJJ]]></description>

      <title><![CDATA[Dear Fashion Kitty, Style My Salmon Colored Shorts]]></title>
      <link>http://www.askfashionkitty.com/2009/07/dear-fashion-kitty-style-my-salmon.html</link>
      <description><![CDATA[I own a pair of bright salmon colored shorts that I love, the only problem is I can't seem to find many different outfits for them. I wear them with a white shirt often but I would really like some more options. I don't wear tight shirts and I like to be "casual cute." Do you have any suggestions on what shirts would like good with my shorts? Also if I were to buy more colorful shorts what colors would you suggest?Salmon colored shorts.  Innnnteresting but totally doable. I was totally inspired by this look from Marc by Marc Jacobs. I think pairing salmon with navy and playing up the orange hue with a brighter shade of orange is genius.I also styled up this little look for you. I paired the shorts with a plaid top, which can grab whatever shade of salmon shorts that you have. Balance out the look with a navy cardigan and add some fun accessories. Bam, bam ... You've got yourself a stylish and casual outfit.As for other shorts. Of course, buy what you love but right now I am loving shorts in: navy, plaid, and floral prints.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[
 

strong>LeToya Luckett did an interview the other day where she told the radio host that she and Beyonce kinda kissed and made up after the whole BET performance drama.  LeToya said that she caught up with B backstage and B went out of her way to go around her security guards to come speak to her.  She said &#8220;Hey girl, everything&#8217;s cool it&#8217;s all good.&#8221;  LeToya said they hadn&#8217;t seen each other in years before that.  Looks like everything&#8217;s said and done now.  Moving on&#8230;

      <title><![CDATA[4 Reasons You Need a Little Black Dress]]></title>
      <link>http://www.splendicity.com/hotmamadaily/4-reasons-you-need-a-little-black-dress/</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Much to my chagrin I&#8217;ve spent many a frantic moment tearing through my closet looking for a dress to wear to a wedding, fashion show, or some other dressy engagement requiring me to look like a grown-up. To avoid those fashion panic attacks, I recently purchased several basic black frocks that can be dressed up or down. The little black dress (LBD) never goes out of style and it&#8217;s perfect for any occasion.

Banana Republic faux-wrap dress, $98

But don&#8217;t just take my word for it. Read fashion stylist Colin Megaro&#8217;s four reasons why every Hot Mama needs a LBD:
1. Black is flattering for all sizes, shapes and skin tones. No matter who you are there is a LBD out there for you! Take the time to find one that makes you feel great and fits you properly.

2. You can wear black any time, during any season and to most events. The LBD is chic, classic and sexy all rolled into one. It&#8217;s the perfect dress to be worn for a night out on the town or as a cover up at the beach.

3. You can wear this dress a dozen different ways. Jazz it up for evening with a beautiful beaded bolero or tone it down with flats and a wrist full of bangles. If you would like to wear it to work layer a cardigan sweater or blazer for a more refined look.

4. Last but not least: one of these dresses is never enough. Have a few versions on hand that can work with the rest of your wardrobe. 
Colin Megaro is a stylist and fashion expert and the founder of Planet Style Concierge, a personal styling service based out of NY and LA. But lucky for all of us, he travels!

      <description><![CDATA[What is your opinion of the Longchamp Tote?  Originally, I thought it was too plain and I didn't like how so many people seem to have one.  But I guess after seeing it so often, it started growing on me.  I like large, simple bags, that can go with most everyday outfits.  They are somewhat pricey for a casual tote, so I thought I'd ask what your thoughts were on it before making the splurge.I dig the bag. Its not me and I probably wouldn't ever carry one but its classic -- it works.For me when it comes to a classic tote, I prefer the LL Bean tote. Its a little more casual, but for me it does the job and for dirt cheap.Anyways, I say do it. You have the official FashionKitty seal of approval.]]></description>
