Long before Jennifer Hudson made it big, Lil' Mo was poised to be the future of R&B. Signed to Elektra Records, she worked closely with Missy Elliott. At the time, Missy was one of the biggest stars in the game.

After meeting Irv Gotti at an industry party, Lil' Mo was partnered with Murder Inc. The partnership led to Lil' Mo being featured on a number of Ja Rule's hits. But, within a year, Ashanti was signed and Lil' Mo moved on.

When the media discovered Wiz Khalifa and Amber Rose were dating, they immediately began drawing comparisons to Kanye West. For the longest time, the media has been trying to create a feud between the two rappers. While the two are not friends, by a long shot, there is no feud between the rappers.

Amber Rose has been harrassed by the media ever since her relationship with Kanye West ended. In the time since, Rose has been linked to Fabolous, Chris Brown, Amare Stoudemire, and other men. Because of this, the media has painted her as a woman who gets around.

Many have questioned why Wiz Khalifa is even with Amber Rose. Despite what Rose says, many still believe she is using Wiz Khalifa to stay in the rap game and to make Kanye West jealous. In her recent interview with VIBE, Amber Rose spoke on this. However, her words were taken out of context and she is now upset with the hip hop publication.

In response to all the negative things being said about Amber Rose, Wiz Khalifa says he will continue to stand by his "wife."

Last week, Chris Brown captivated the crowd at the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards with his performance. It was safe to say Chris Brown was in the zone, as he performed. Brown was so much into the zone, he threw his watch into the crowd. The watch, a Rolex, was worth over $20,000.

Luckily for Chris Brown, the watch ended up in the hands of one of his fans. The watch landed in the hands of a girl named Alisha, who returned the watch to Chris Brown. It is rare for a person of stature, like Chris Brown, to lose something with such a large price tage and have it returned.

Chris Brown gave Alisha a shout out on Twitter for giving him his watch back. The kindness did not stop there, either, as Brown has given her free VIP access to his show in Cincinanati. For the fan of Chris Brown, honesty and kindess paid off, as she will have the star treatment at Chris Brown's upcoming show in Ohio.
