So Benzino Did Smash Joseline?
Atlanta, Georgia - Love And Hip Hop Atlanta star Benzino has been taking out his aggression in the gym ever since his fallout from former BFF, Stevie J., and now we’re seeing how a friendship breakup can affect one’s professional life. How does the saying go? Turn lemons into lemonade?
Zino Grigio’s new video for “Smashed Da Homie” features some not so subtle nods to the Hitman’s accusations that his brother (Benzino) was trying to get with his girl (Joseline), lots and lots of references to animal instincts, and a serious Puerto Rican Princess look-alike. Benzino has repeatedly denied he hit it, but the parking garage altercation captured on camera severed longstanding ties, forever altering the friendship circle of our favorite ATLiens. “No Love And Hip Hop this is some animal s–t.” Zino chants. At least it’s catchy?
MJ’s Daughter Attempts Suicide!
Paris Jackson was rushed to the hospital early Wednesday morning after an attempted suicide, a lawyer for her grandmother, Katherine Jackson, confirmed to the Daily News.
“She’s suffered with the loss of her father,” the lawyer said. “But we don’t know what she was exposed to that precipitated this.”
According to TMZ, Michael Jackson’s 15-year-old daughter was wheeled out of her Calabasas residence on a stretcher and taken by ambulance to a local hospital early in the morning.
Jackson, 15, posted lyrics to the Beatles song ‘Yesterday’ on her Twitter page around the time of the reported incident. The 911 call was received close to 1:30 a.m., and the caller said Jackson had cut her wrists. It was not made clear who placed the call.
Paris Jackson and her brothers are currently in the care of their grandmother, Katherine Jackson. Messages on Jackson’s Twitter page Tuesday night and early into Wednesday morning suggest the young starlet may have been upset.
Around the time of the incident, she posted lyrics to the Beatles song “Yesterday.”
“Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away now it looks as though they’re here to stay,” she wrote.
Paris’s father – Michael Jackson – passed away in 2009. She has said she wants to follow in his famous footsteps. Before that, she wrote “I wonder why tears are salty?” and “omg… that conversation escalated quickly” – though she doesn’t mention who or what she’s referring to.
Jackson is said to be doing okay now – though details about her length of stay at the hospital, and the severity of her injuries, have not yet been reported.
A TMZ source close to the teenager suggested Jackson has attempted suicide “in the past” but added that this time it was “far more serious.”
“It was not a cry for help,” said the source.
Rapper Popped For Steeler Stab
Wiz Khalifa get your cousin!
A Taylor Gang rapper/affiliate has been arrested in connection with the stabbing and attempted carjacking of a Pittsburgh Steelers player over the weekend.
KDKA reports:
Two men are behind bars in connection with the stabbing of Steelers right tackle Mike Adams.
According to police, Dquay Means, 26, of Hazelwood, was arrested Monday night after a foot chase with police.
Earlier in the day, police arrested Michael Paranay, 25, of Hazelwood.
Paranay is facing one count of criminal attempt homicide, one count of aggravated assault and one count of criminal conspiracy.
Means has been charged with criminal attempt homicide, aggravated assault, attempted carjacking, former convict not to possess a firearm, terroristic threats, criminal conspiracy and escape.
Police also hope to arrest a third suspect soon. They believe they know who he is.
Surveillance video helped police track down the suspects.
The video was taken from a South Side business. It shows the moments after Steelers right tackle Mike Adams was stabbed during an attempted carjacking at 17th and E. Carson Street early Saturday morning.
Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin spoke about the situation he calls an unfortunate circumstance.
“I visited with him a couple days this weekend,” Tomlin said. “He’s got great team support, family support. We expect a full recovery. He realizes how fortunate he is. We’re just glad he’s going to be OK.”
Pittsburgh Police say the 23-year-old was standing near his parked car around 3 a.m. when three men confronted him. One had a gun, the other a knife.
Adams, who didn’t have his keys on him, says one man then pointed a gun at his head, while another gentleman stabbed his stomach and arm.
“Mike don’t do anything to them all,” said Moeun McSwiggen who helped Adams. “All he do is like, is this for real?”
McSwiggen was working at the nearby Cambod-Ican Kitchen when Adams, a regular customer there, rushed into the store and asked for help.
Adams told police that after the stabbing, the men ran off.
Police say the people seen in the video are persons of interest.
Adams also tweeted a post-surgery photo of him at Mercy Hospital and told coach Tomlin that after six weeks of healing, he’ll be back on the field, with a new perspective.
“We recognize the world we live in and things like this are capable of happening,” Tomlin said.

Bouncer Kills Coworkers For Prank
OCALA, FLORIDA – Ocala police say a man fatally shot three bouncers – co-workers who teased him about a video that showed him being “punked” at a firing range.
Andrew Joseph Lobban was arrested Sunday and charged with three counts of first degree felony murder.
Police say Lobban worked with the victims as bouncers at the Ocala Entertainment Complex.
Lobban told police that one of the victims recently “punked” him, capturing it all on video that was shown to the other victims.
Lobban says he was embarrassed when the group began laughing and making fun of him about the video.
According to the Orlando Sentinel, the murder victims were identified by police as Benjamin Larz Howard, 23, from Belleview; Jerry Lamar Bynes Jr., 20, from Ocala and Josue Santiago, 25, also from Ocala.
CBS affiliate WKMG reports investigators said the video Lobban was upset about was of the three victims and him at a gun range a few weeks ago.
The friends recorded Lobban trying to shoot his gun after reportedly setting the weapon so that it would misfire.
The victims were found lying along the sidewalk outside a bar on Sunday morning.
One was pronounced dead at the scene.
The other two died at the hospital.

Tyga Claims He Lied On "Bustas" Show & Really Is From Compton
After footage leaked of Tyga, at 18-year-old, acting very much like a "busta" on the un-aired MTV show, "Bustas," people began clowning him badly for his embarrassing actions in front of the camera. On the show, he went so far as to state that he didn't have a difficult life growing up, that he lives in the Valley and that his parents "have a Range Rover". He also revealed how he got his name, which didn't have a hard story behind it, but rather his mother used to call him Tyga because he "looked like Tiger Woods".
Back in those days, he probably didn't envision his career would blow up as much as it has, nor did he think of the possible damage this footage would do to the overall level of respect he gets in the game. He's now come forward, according to TMZ, and claimed that he lied on the TV show to make himself sound like he had a better life than really was the case. Tyga is now saying that he really did grow up in Compton, CA and that the time he lived in the Valley was only for a very short period of his life.
