Despite his eccentric style, Lil Jon is considered one of the smartest men in hip hop. He used his "crunk" style to his advantage and he dominated the charts for three years consecutively. Along the way, he helped revive E-40's career and reintroduce Too $hort.

Lil Jon was successful because he was willing to work outside of the box. While most rappers were focusing on clothing lines and shoe deals, Lil Jon was focused on Crunk Juice. He took his label, BME, to the top, but he did it with an independent distributor.

Along the way, Lil Jon also got into the movie business. But, he was not doing movies like most rappers. Instead, Lil Jon focused on doing porno flicks. These films were major successes and he wanted to put more together, as he is preparing his reintroduction to the game. But, his role on Donald Trump's "Celebrity Apprentice" has Lil Jon re-thinking his image.

For years, Lil Jon has been rugged with his image and now he is trying to tone things down. Currently, major corporate big-wigs are scouting Lil Jon because of his Trump connections. Because of this, Lil Jon is making himself look as professional as possible. The first move the Atlanta producer made was getting rid of his film ventures. Despite producing the Club Lil Jon flick, Lil Jon has cut all ties with the video and he has refused to promote it. The film company, however, will continue to promote it.

Lil Jon donates "Celebrity Apprentice" earnings to Children's Home

Nearly a decade ago, Lil Jon rose from seemingly nowhere to take over the rap game. T.I. had labeled himself the King of the South and teamed up with Lil Jon. Jon was also from Atlanta and he also called himself a king. For those who remember, Lil Jon was the King of Crunk.

Lil Jon had grown so popular he had his own line of drink, which was called 'Crunk Juice.' The Atlanta producer had risen to become a force in the game. He signed E-40 and helped him rise to mainstream fame for the first time in his fifteen year career. But, his 2006 run would prove to be his last.

It was not until Donald Trump called on Lil Jon did most fans realize the game had been missing something. Most of the post-2006 songs on the radio were lacking Lil Jon's trademark sounds of "WHAT!" and "OK!" Lil Jon turned heads on Trump's "Celebrity Apprentice" series because of his sharp business acumen.

Many failed to realize how skilled of a businessman Lil Jon actually is. While wearing the goofy clothes and making outrageous sounds, Lil Jon was making an incredible amount of money. Most of his profits went back into his BME label, which had several artists signed under him. Lil Jon used the same business tactics for "Celebrity Apprentice" and did well in the contest. His team recently won and Lil Jon pocketed a total of $40,000 for being a part of the team.

Already rich, Lil Jon took these earnings and donated them to a children's home in Decatur, Georgia.

NeNe Leakes and Star Jones find truce

Ever since she rose to fame on "The Real Housewives of Atlanta," NeNe Leakes has been known for her aggressive attitude. It does not come as much of a shock to discover she is feuding with someone. When she joined "Celebrity Apprentice," most knew it was only a matter of time before she found a rival.

With Omarosa now working in her own ventures, billionaire developer, Donald Trump, has been in need of a new female sidekick. NeNe Leakes has gladly stepped up in order to fill that void. But, Star Jones, a woman with a television history much longer than Leakes', is also in the running. From the start, the media pitted the two ladies against each other.

Throughout most of the filming for the show, Leakes and Jones gave in to what the media wanted and had on-air disputes. In the media, the women have taken turns disrespecting each other. The feud has been the source of much entertainment over the past few weeks, but it has not been entertaining for NeNe Leakes and Star Jones. Many television shows want Leakes in the cast because of her attitude. But, she is also limited because most people think NeNe Leakes has trouble getting along with other people.

Earlier this month, there were rumors of NeNe Leakes possibly being removed from the cast of the popular series, "The Real Housewives of Atlanta." Despite being one of the original cast members of the show, her attitude was too much to bear. Ever since the start, NeNe has had problems with Kim Zolciak, but it was also said that she was going against the executive producers. It was said that if Leakes did not change her attitude, she would find herself ousted from "The Real Housewives of Atlanta." Possibly, because of this, she has been working on her attitude.

After months of feuding with each other, NeNe Leakes and Star Jones have put their differences aside and decided to work on becoming friends. Bigger than everything else, they are two black women and it looks bad when they cannot get along on television. Rumors say this was the main reason the two decided to put an end to their silly feud.
