THE FACTS
Blind item details rumor of a less recognizable star’s obsession with a wealthy, well known rapper.

THE SPIN
You know the drill. Blind item via Panache, guesses by you.

Here it goes:

This less than (lukewarm) but well known artist idolizes a super wealthy hip hop affiliated man from a distant.

He tries to keep his fascination with this man’s swagger a secret because he doesn’t want to be known as a mere follower but behind closed doors, he orders up the same girl his idol does when he’s not sexing with a well known female singer unprotected.

Allegedly, they go unprotected because they both have the same STD (non-fatal) makeup.

The follower copies everything his idol does [except] renting private jets because it’s out of his price range but he’s another one who loves to make it rain in strip clubs.

He’s also known to visit his Detroit girlfriend. He rents a penthouse, invites a crew over and when the party wears down, it turns into a freak festival.

In his mind, he has a lover man’s rep and he does a lot of this stuff to keep his name out there, he never met a camera he didn’t like although people snicker behind his back because he tries way too hard to be down and to be a ladies man.

Who is he?

Who is his idol?

Who is the woman he goes unprotected with?

THE FACTS
Eve spoke to TheYBF.com about her fashion label and oft-delayed new album.

THE SPIN
For those of you who spot pictures of Eve on the red carpet and have no clue what she does anymore “rapper” and “fashion designer” are two things you can scratch off the list.

Those of you looking forward to her fourth album, “Flirt” (originally entitled Here I Am): Stop.

She’s no longer on Geffen Records, which she means she has no record label to release tracks that she might not even own. As if that weren’t enough, she’s also permanently shut down plans to relaunch her Fetish clothing line. She attributed to “legal reasons.”

But if you want to spot Eve somewhere outside of the red carpet tune into Fox’s new musical series, Glee. Eve will be featured in an upcoming episode. She will play the role of a competing choir director. Yes, that is the role that was first offered to Whitney Houston.

Eve will also be featured in Drew Barrymore and Ellen Page’s upcoming movie, Whip It!

It could be worse for Eve: She could be in jail.

THE FACTS
In an interview with JET magazine, Cissy Houston discussed her role in Whitney Houston’s rehabilitation.

THE SPIN
Mama Houston believes she was “summoned” by God to save daughter Nippy from destruction.

In an interview in this week’s JET magazine she spoke on the fight to get her daughter back on the right track.

She said: “It was very difficult to show tough love. My heart was breaking. I sometimes wonder how I did it.”

If you caught Whitney’s interview with Oprah, you’ll know Cissy showed up to Whitney’s house with a sheriff and court injunction to get her help.

Although she says the time was a rough period in her life Mama Houston says she’s “proud” of her daughter’s “strength and courage.”

While she still gives God the glory (should I ask for a shout right now?) she also wants to thank those fans who prayed for her daughter.

“I thank my family and everyone who prayed along with me during that time for their support,” Houston said.
