WENDY WILLIAMS HUSBAND ACCUSED OF PLOTTING TO KILL WENDY'S BIGGEST RIVAL: HOT 97's MISS JONES.

According to the New York Daily News, shock jock Wendy Williams' husband plotted to kill a Hot 97 rival DJ for badmouthing his wife on the air, an explosive federal lawsuit filed charges Wednesday. Kevin Hunter, who is married to Williams, sought out a male WBLS employee for help in finding a hitman to rub out Hot 97 personality Tarsha Jones, the lawsuit claims. Hunter "was apparently angry over some comments that Miss Jones made about his wife on the air," the lawsuit filed in Manhattan federal court claims. A lawyer for Hunter and Williams could not immediately be reached for comment. The blistering allegations are included in a federal sexual harassment lawsuit filed by Nicole Spence, a 29-year-old talent booker for "The Wendy Williams Experience." Spence says Hunter regularly called her a "whore," referred to her with the b-word and called her cell phone to tell "her that he had been dreaming about sleeping with her." Hunter does not work for the radio station.

The hothead hubby also turned his rage onto Williams after he caught her having a forbidden cigarette, the lawsuit alleges. "Hunter stormed into the room, yelled and demanded that the employees leave and physically abused Williams, pinning her against the wall with his hand around her neck, choking her while repeatedly pounding his fist into the wall directly by her head," the lawsuit claims. Williams, 43, then then turned to the same employee her husband tried to enlist in a murder plot to find someone to kill him, the lawsuit alleges.

Williams, whose popular "The Wendy Williams Experience" airs on WBLS, once worked for Hot 97 but was fired in 1998 after getting into a spat with a co-worker Angie Martinez.

KIMORA ON BEING BRANDED A DIVA: 'IN REALITY I'M A DEDICATED MOTHER AND A VERY KIND, FUNNY AND HARDWORKING PERSON.'


"I hear the craziest things, like, 'She has to have a champagne glass filled within a quarter inch of the lip. The reality, is I'm a dedicated mother [to daughters Ming Lee, 8, and Aoki Lee, 5] and a very kind, funny and hardworking person. My reality-TV show helps to shed a bit of light, but even that's glamorized. Sometimes people who don’t know me say really cruel things that are way off base. But you can't care too much about what people think of you. You have to establish your own set of core values: honor, respect, tenacity, intelligence and humor and live by them. Do your best, and live with the repercussions of your choices – good or bad."

--Kimora Lee Simmons, speaking to Giant magazine (June/July 2008 issue) about constant reports that she is a bona fide diva. So remember folks - every time you spot Kimora decked in diamonds demanding that her staff cater to her every need, she’s just being hardworking!

FORMER ONE-HIT-WONDER BLU CANTRELL SNAGS NEW BOY TOY & A PLAYBOY MAGAZINE SPREAD.


According to E!Online singer Blu Cantrell (a.k.a. Blu Can'tSell) has snagged herself a new man and possibly a future cover of Playboy magazine. Sources claim Cantrell and former Calvin Klein underwear model and soap opera stud Antonio Sabato Jr. are more than just clowning around on NBC’s newest competition show Celebrity Circus. “They’ve been getting close and hanging out after rehearsals,” said the insider. “Antonio seems smitten with her.” Celebrity Circus, which premiered Wednesday night, pits a group of celebs against one another as they try to perform crazy-ass stunts, including high-wire walking, fire dancing and doing acrobatics in the wheel of death.

And we may soon get a look at what Sabato Jr., 36, may be seeing these days. Cantrell, 31, recently shot a spread for Playboy after dropping upwards of 25 pounds since she began training for Circus. Sabato Jr.’s rep didn’t comment on the possible romance, but said, “We do know that all of those competitors have become such a tight-knit and close family.” However, a rep for Cantrell said of the two, “They are having fun right now.”

SHAQUILLE O'NEAL OFFERS TO PAY MORTGAGES OF STRUGGLING HOME OWNERS IN ORLANDO.

According to the Orlando Sentinel, NBA baller Shaquille O'Neal has volunteered himself in offering to pay the mortgages of homeowners who are drowning in high interest rate loans. "I want to come in not to kick them out, but to work with them and save them so they can stay in their homes," O'Neal told the Orlando Sentinel during an impromptu stop Tuesday at Orlando City Hall. Shaq would sell the homes back to those troubled buyers with more affordable terms, hoping to make a small profit. "He's become a businessman with a conscience," said attorney Mark NeJame, who arranged the NBA star's visit along with longtime friend and Realtor Curtis Cooper.

NeJame said Shaq might also develop an affordable-housing project, stating: "He's looking to find out where he can make a significant investment in Orlando -- specifically downtown Orlando -- but also all over Central Florida."

MC LYTE LAUNCHES PERSONAL CAMPAIGN TO REINSTALL FEMALE RAP CATEGORY AT GRAMMYS.


Earlier this year we saw Rihanna share the stage with world-renowned mid-80s R&B group Morris Day and the Time at the 50th annual Grammy Awards. That unforgettable performance was due to super-producer Jimmy Jam (who along with his partner in crime Terry Lewis have produced hits for Janet, New Edition, Bobby Brown and others) who joined the Grammy committee a couple of years ago. Now, rap veteran MC Lyte, who's also a committee member, is spearheading a new campaign to help her peers pick up more Grammy Awards. The rapper-turned-actress (real name Lana Moorer), who became the first female rapper to score a gold single, is using her position on the Grammy committee to reinstall a category for the ladies of hip-hop at the annual music Oscars.

She says, "We have not had a female rap category at the Grammys since 2003, and I'm trying to get this thing reinstated for 2009. I'm getting all of these sisters ready, whether they're signed or unsigned."

MELANIE 'MEL B.' BROWN TO STAR IN BLACK VERSION OF DISNEY'S 'HANNAH MONTANA' ON NICKELODEON.


Melanie Brown, formerly of the Spice Girls, has written a new half-hour TV show which she describes as the "black version" of the Disney Channel's popular children's series, Hannah Montana. "I've written my own sitcom that's just been picked up by Nickelodeon that I start at Christmas," she said, according to Contact Music. "I'm the star of it. It's a bit like Hannah Montana, but the black version." The project is reportedly scheduled to go into production later this year. No other details were given.

Hannah Montana, meanwhile, focuses on a girl who lives a double life as an average teenage school girl named Miley Stewart (played by Miley Cyrus) by day and a famous pop singer named Hannah Montana by night, concealing her real identity from the public, other than her close friends and family.

TRICK DADDY $$ TO PEN NEW AUTOBIOGRAPHY.


Miami rapper Trick Daddy will soon add author to his list of achievements with the release of an autobiography. The 33-year-old hip-hop star and Dunk Ryder Record label CEO - real name Maurice Young - is in the midst of collating all his life experiences into the tome, which he is currently trying to secure a distributing deal for. The as-yet-untitled book will detail his transition from his upbringing in the ghettos of Miami, Florida through to his successful recording career. And Trick Daddy promises fans it will be something to look forward to when it is released later this year (2008). He tells AllHipHop.com, "The book is amazing already. I have a writer, I have a agent already shopping the book, and actually, I think we'll have a book deal by next week."

Don't sit and wait on it folks. Four years ago Trick Daddy was set to launch and host his own cooking show. And it almost happened. Almost. He had filmed a pilot episode showcasing several of his Dirty South recipes for MTV. At the time, he said, "They wanted me to cook all my dishes. I'm like, 'How am I gonna cook all my dishes?' Then if I have a show I'm a run out of s**t to do. I'll cook you two dishes and then you lay around for next time up. So if they like it, we gonna go from there."

However, for unknown reasons, at least to me, the deal fell through. I, for one, was particularly looking forward to watching the series. Trick had even said he'd invite a few of his rapping allies to his show to show them how to get things done in the kitchen. "I'll probably have a lot of rap cats come on up. You know a lot of n**gers think they know how to cook. I'm a show you how n**gers f**k up and burn eggs. And have the shells in them."

But Trick also insisted there's was one dish he wouldn't ever think about cooking on his show: "I cook anything but chitlins. Because chitlins smell like a dirty a*s."

Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow.
