NICOLE RICHIE'S PEOPLE MAG COVER SALES SLAUGHTERS CHRISTINA AGUILERA SALES.


According to MSNBC's The Scoop, Nicole Richie didn’t just beat rival Christina Aguilera to the delivery room by having daughter Harlow on Jan. 11, one day before Aguilera gave birth to son Max, but it appears Richie will beat Aguilera on the newsstand as well. Both new moms each had their own cover of People magazine, and according to some early estimates, the issue featuring Richie is on target to sell more than 1.8 million copies, according to an industry source, whereas Aguilera's has sold far less. (People magazine could not confirm sales numbers; a spokesperson said its too soon to know how many copies were sold.) Why does there seem to be more interest in Harlow Winter Kate Madden? One magazine insider said part of it could come down to the moms’ fan bases. “Christina historically doesn’t do that well on covers,” said the source, who cites poor sales of her wedding photo issue in OK!, and less-than-stellar sales of her nude photo shoot in the January 2008 Marie Claire.

That might be true, but Nicole Richie doesn’t seem like an obvious home run on the cover, either. “There’s also a greater element of curiosity with Nicole,” the source conceded. “She’s gone public about being a heroin addict. Her boyfriend is covered in tattoos. By default, she’s got the more interesting baby. People want to see how she settles down. They want to see what kind of baby someone with her background has.”

NEW PERFORMANCE PICS: TRINA PERFORMING LIVE AT CLUB ROXY IN ORLANDO, FLORIDA.

Yall, I'm trying. I'm trying really, really hard. But it's the unequivocal madness embroidered in every single picture in this post that's making it hard for me to understand the madness that Trina is so unabashedly displaying. Her entire get-up is not the business. No, it is not. Anyhoo, below are pics of the rapper performing at Club Roxy in Orlando, Florida last month as part of her promotional tour. And am I the only one who thinks she looks more like she's singing instead of rapping in these pics?

REAL OR RUMOR: FEDERAL PROSECUTORS OFFER T.I. A PLEA DEAL OF 15 YEARS IN JAIL FOR VARIOUS WEAPON CHARGES.

If the rumors are true, looks like T.I.'s fiancee Tiny will soon become a single mother while her man is away doing time. Various websites are reporting that prosecuting attorney David E. Nahmias has offered the 27-year-old rapper a plea deal of 15 years with a minimum mandatory sentence of 13 years; which means that even with good behavior he will remain locked up behind bars until he turns 40-years-old in year 2021. And when you consider the fact that he's a convicted felon, even if these rumors are indeed true, he'd be a fool not to take the deal. Because of his criminal history, his possession of a firearm by a convicted felon charge alone could have him serving football numbers. And let's not forget his charges of possessing unregistered machine guns and silencers....which could put him away for life. Dude had so many guns, you'd think he was going to go out and hunt down Osama bin Laden personally.

As previously reported, the rapper was arrested last October in Atlanta, Georgia in a federal sting operation in which he allegedly attempted to purchase three machine guns and two silencers. Since the ATL MC (real name Clifford Harris) is a convicted felon, he cannot legally own a gun or have one in his possession. According to authorities at the time, and for reasons we may never know, T.I. gave his newly-hired bodyguard—who later became an informant for the federal government—an estimated $27,000 to purchase the weapons. In addition to the guns used in the sting operation, a search of T.I.’s vehicle also turned up several more guns.

However, several sources are stating that the plea deal offered to the hip hop star could be be reduced. One particular website has even gone as far as to claim that their sources have confirmed to them that the rapper would only serve 2-4 years. Yeah, right. The only way I can see that happening is if his legal team dug up Johnnie Cochran. (God, bless the dead). Nevertheless, he should feel like a certified fool for getting himself caught up in this mess. I can't even feel sorry for him because he brought it all on himself. Ya dig?

THE GAME TURNS HIMSELF INTO JAIL TO BEGIN SERVING 60 DAY JAIL SENTENCE ON GUN CHARGE.

I'm pretty sure I told you all that rapper The Game would soon have to serve jail time on a gun possession charge he caught about a year ago, yet I'm too lazy to look it up! LOL! So I'll just cut to the chase. Dude checked himself into the Twin Towers Correctional Facility on Sunday night (March 2) to begin serving his 60 days sentence on that gun charge. The Game (real name Jayceon Taylor) pleaded no contest to a felony charge of possession of a firearm in a school zone back on February 11 stemmed from a February 24, 2007 incident during which he got into an altercation with a player on an opposing team during a basketball game at the Rita Walters Educational Learning Complex in South Los Angeles. Was initially charged with three felony charges; making a criminal threat, exhibiting a firearm in the presence of an officer, and possessing a firearm in a school zone, back in June last year, he had the first two counts dismissed as part of a plea agreement.

As a consequence of the last count, The Game was sentenced to 60 days in jail, 150 hours of community service and three years probation.

Keep yo head up, pahtnah!
