JUVENILE PULLED A GHOST MOVE AT DAUGHTER'S FUNERAL.

Rapper Juvenile chose not to attend the funeral of his murdered 4 -year-old daughter Jelani. The little girl was laid to rest Saturday (March 8, 2008) afternoon along with her her sister Micaiah, and their mother, Gwinnett County Sheriff's Deputy Joy Deleston in James Island, S.C. According to several media outlets, Juvenile reportedly did not attend the funeral services. TMZ, citing an unnamed spokesperson for the rapper, reported that he declined to attend because he did not want to attract media to the gathering. Jelani, Joy Deleston, 39, and Micaiah, 11, were shot and killed on February 28, allegedly by Deleston's 17-year-old son, Anthony Tyrone Terrell Jr. Terrell has been arrested and charged with three counts of murder and three counts of aggravated assault. He is currently being held in a DeKalb County prison. Because of his age, prosecutors cannot seek the death penalty against him.

Juvenile (real name: Terius Gray) has kept a low profile during the ordeal, with the only public comment being a statement from his manager saying that the rapper was "shocked and devastated" to learn of his daughter's death. The extent of Juvenile's relationship with Jelani or her mother, a sheriff's deputy, is unclear.

I honestly don't understand why he would let attention from the media keep him from attending his baby girl's funeral. However, I hope he took the necessary steps in making sure he paid his final respects to his daughter and her mother in a private setting...now that I can clearly understand.

KIMORA TO GAIN MORE BABY 'PHAT' IN THE NEAR FUTURE.

Alleged sources close to Kimora Lee Simmons are now claiming what we had already figured out as true (allegedly): Kimora is now rocking the Baby Ph(F)at in more ways than one. The model-turned-mogul already has two adorable little girls, Ming Lee and Aoki Lee with her estranged husband Russell Simmons, but the starlet is about to add another heir to her fashion global empire. The Baby Phat designer and demanding diva has been trying for a child with her actor boyfriend, Djimon Hounsou (who’s been nominated twice for an Oscar for his work in Blood Diamond and In America) for the past several months. "She's pregnant," a source told the New York Post's Page Six.

A rep for Simmons couldn't get a hold of her client for five days. Simmons already has two children, Ming and Aoki, by ex-husband Russell Simmons.

REAL OR RUMOR: STAR JONES REYNOLDS KICKS THAT CUP OF SUGAR SHE CALLS A HUSBAND TO THE CURB.

It’s not like the whole world didn’t see this one coming even way before their opulent wedding, but that doesn't make it less entertaining...at least a little bit. Nearly three and half years after they swapped “I dos” at their corporate-sponsored wedding, Star Jones and Al Reynolds are calling it quits. The National Enquirer reports the legal diva sent Al his walking papers a month ago. A rep for Jones says the report is false, but the Enquirer goes on to say, “They hadn’t been seeing eye to eye for months and had already spent a great deal of time apart,” a friend of the couple told the Enquirer. “Finally, Star decided it was over. She told Al at the end of January that he had 30 days to get his act together or ‘get out.’” The pair made one last public appearance at the Feb. 1 Baby Phat fashion show in New York City, but everything fell apart days later. That prompted Star to show Al the door ahead of schedule, the source said. “Al moved some of his things out of their Upper East Side apartment and returned to Miami, where he’d already been spending a lot of time recently."

The Enquirer spoke to another insider who confirmed the breakup and revealed Star’s intention to make it permanent. “Star is planning to divorce Al.” As for reason behind the split, the source added, “I think Star felt Al had spent their marriage riding her success while she did all the heavy lifting. She resented it. Deep down, Star is a very old-fashioned woman who believes a man should support her emotionally, physically and financially. She now believes Al failed her.”

TYRA'S TOP MODEL GIRLS TRASH $6 MILLION LOFT.

Looks like Tyra needs to give the contestants of her show, America's Next Top Model a lesson in home training and how to respect other people's belongings.

According to the New York Post, the 14 wannabe models from the latest cycle of America's Next Top Model are accused of making a dump out of the gorgeous $6 million TriBeCa loft where they lived for 10 weeks. Anisa Productions, which makes the show hosted by Tyra Banks, rented the loft at 39 Lispenard St., promising landlord Michael Marvisi that any damage would be minor, according to an insider. Instead, the crew "punched hundreds of holes in the ceiling to hang lighting equipment" and ruined the Brazilian wood floors, forcing the owner to tear them up and install all new flooring when the women moved out three weeks ago. "These girls not only destroyed the floors, it appears they had food fights. There's ketchup and coffee splattered all over the landlord's $20,000 white drapes. There's lipstick on the walls," said the insider. "They moved in furniture and made holes all along the walls." According to our source, while the beauties were staying in the 4,200-square-foot loft, they damaged a $15,000 chandelier beyond repair and splashed so much water around, the bathroom was ruined and had to be tested for mold. "A plumber had to come fix the toilet and the water caused $90,000 worth of damage to the electrical store on the first floor," said our source.

America's Next Top Model also "skipped out on" a $1,500 electric bill, claimed our source, who estimated the damage totals $500,000. "The landlord is devastated," the source said. "Three other shows approached him [to use the loft] and he turned them all down for Top Model. And a tenant was supposed to move in a week ago, but when the place wasn't ready, they pulled out. Tyra Banks should be ashamed of herself."

SPOILER: FLAV BOOTS USHER'S NUMBER ONE FAN FROM 'FLAVOR OF LOVE 3' SHOW; REJECT TALKS SMACK ABOUT USHER'S OLD LADY.

What does Usher and the undeniably ugly-ass Flavor Flav have in common? One attention-starved, celebrity-STANing so-called 'fan.' So, I wasn't surprised one iota when Flav eliminated her instead of Bunz in this week's episode. The expression(s) on her face when Flav pulled out the pictures of her and Usher from her myspace page was absolutely priceless and LOL funny. Funny how she didn't seem to have a problem telling him that she was once on Fear Factor and has met several celebrities through her relatives who work in the entertainment industry, but when it came down to admitting to the fact that she had also appeared on Oprah to meet her favorite celebrity, she got the tightmouth. She had to be insane in the membrane to think Flav would never find out. How are you going to go from being Usher's biggest fan (even if it was four years ago) to wanting to be on the arm and all up in the face of Flavor Flav's old ass? That is not the business, boo. Girl, you played yourself big time. I hope I didn't spoil all the drama for you all! *snicker* Catch the episode when it runs again tonight at 9 pm on VH1.

I don't watch the third season of Flavor of Love as much as I did the first two, but once I saw Bee-Ex, then heard her mention she has met-and in some cases-made friends with various celebrities, I took a closer look. And when I did, I realized I had seen her before...on TV...with another celeb. The year: 2004. The place: The Oprah Winfrey Show. The topic: 'Oprah Making Dreams Come True.' or something like that. Long story short: I find out my best friend, Kamika, biggest crush will be making an appearance on Oprah. Being the friend that I am, I record (I still have it on a VHS tape...but don't tell nobody) it for her. We watch it together. She's a bit bitter because it should've been her (and I agree) and I'm just a bit speechless because this Bee-Ex chick couldn't even attempt to even try to hold a candle to my friend in the looks department. Trust and believe that. Anyhoo, come to find out, Bee-Ex's best friend wrote to Oprah to tell her Bee-Ex is Usher's number one fan and would love to meet him. Oprah sets up a surprise meeting. Usher takes Bee-Ex and her best friend bowling where she takes full advantage of getting as close to him as she can (peep the pictures--click on them to see their full image). He then gives them VIP access to his concert that night in Chicago.

And although Usher and his number one fan look as cozy as two lovable lovebirds in a deluxe net atop a big old oak tree on a beautiful Spring day, I don't think there was anything more to it. Usher and Chilli had just broken up (he moaned and groaned to Oprah about during his interview) a few months earlier and he hadn't began dating again to my knowledge. Considering he appeared on Oprah wearing a red cap and sweater looking like an urban version of Curious George lets me know that at the time Tameka was still employed as his wardrobe stylist. Needless to say, that's also the reason you don't see Usher wearing a wedding ring on his finger. However, Ms. Bee-Ex must be still seeking her 15 minutes of fame. According to Sandra Rose, the aspiring model took it upon herself to speak ill of Usher's old lady during an appearance on the Miss Jones show.
