ROC NATION IS BORN JAY-Z OFFICIALLY BECOMES A LICENSED MLB AND NBA AGENT...SIGNS KEVIN DURANT

Jay-Z might have been unsuccessful in making “Magna Carta Holy Grail” go platinum before its even released but sources say he is now a licensed NBA and MLB agent. According to a report from Sports Business Journal, a spokesperson from Roc Nation Sports has confirmed Jay-Z is now licensed to represent MLB and NBA players as an agent.

What’s not clear is how soon Jay-Z can represent players. A source close to the situation said that, as of Wednesday, the hip-hop mogul had not sold his small ownership share (less than 1 percent) of the Brooklyn Nets. 

Industry speculation is Jay-Z might be able to sign players as long as he agrees to pass off his share of the Nets in the near future. Owners of NBA teams cannot represent players.

The first NBA player Jay-Z is expected to sign is Oklahoma City Thunder star Kevin Durant, who told his agent, Rob Pelinka, in recent days that he would sign with Jay-Z. Durant has not commented publicly. 
Since announcing his intention to start a sports agency a few months ago, Jay-Z’s firm has signed New York Yankees second baseman Robinson Cano, New York Jets quarterback Geno Smith and former Notre Dame guard Skylar Diggins pictured above, who recently was selected third by the Tulsa Shock in the WNBA draft.
While Roc Nation has not confirmed that it has signed New York Giants wide receiver Victor Cruz, who accepted a one-year free-agent tender offer of $2.879 million last week, a deal appears close. Cruz took pictures with Jay-Z, Cano and Smith at a party Monday in Manhattan to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Jay-Z’s 40/40 sports bar.

KANYE WEST AND KIM KARDASHIAN BABY NAME REVEALED "NORTH WEST"

If this was a little boy we probably would be OK with this name, but it is their child right.  There has been much speculation regarding the name of Kanye West and Kim Kardashian’s baby girl. But it looks like she finally has a name.
Kimye’s daughter has been named North West, according to TMZ, who obtained the birth certificate from Cedars-Sinai hospital.
The couple’s daughter was born on Saturday in Los Angeles.

ATTENTION FAKE PURSE SHOPPERS, BOOTLEG, KNOCKOFF MERCHANDISE LOVERS, NEW LAW PUTS YOU IN JAIL


Interestedly enough we were in NYC recently and we witnessed friends, people making curbside deals on the streets.  New York Councilwoman Margaret Chin wants to criminalize the purchase of counterfeit goods such as handbags, wallets, and luggage. 

If this bill passes you will be charged with a CLASS A misdemeanor for rocking bootlegged goods. You might be wondering what’s a bootlegged good. You know that Coach Bag, fake Louis vuitton you got for $40.00 off the street you could end up in jail if you live in New York. Basically your flexin days are coming to an end.

Who are we kidding? This law would never ever make it in Atlanta. There’s not enough time in the day for the City of Atlanta Police to run behind the women and girls who frequent the discount malls for imitation Prada, Gucci, Louie, and Fendi.

We just wanted to let you all know what’s going on in the world. The bill is set to be heard tomorrow some time. So we will let you know the outcome of the proposed bill. 

The next time you are in New York you might have to leave your bags at the house.  Why do they have to be stopping the hustle, the wannabe's need this option. And if it passes in NYC we are sure they will be visiting your neighborhood real soon.

R.I.P. ACTOR WHO PLAYED TONY SOPRANO JAMES GANDOLFINI DEAD AT 51 IN ITALY

Sad news to report, James Gandolfini, who played one of television's most memorable characters and one of our favorite shows of all time, has died in Rome, Italy after suffering a heart attack.

Home Box Office officials confirmed that Gandolfini, who played gangster Tony Soprano on HBO's classic crime drama The Sopranos, died from a heart attack while vacationing before attending a film festival in Italy. He was 51. The New Jersey born actor was to attend the Taormina Film Festival in Sicily this weekend.

HBO issued a statement confirming his death to Variety.
"He was special man, a great talent, but more importantly, a gentle and loving person who treated everyone, no matter their title or position, with equal respect. He touched so many of us over the years with his humor, his warmth and his humility," HBO's statement read.
Born Sept. 18, 1961 in Westwood, N.J., Gandolfini's breakthrough role came in a memorable bit part as a hitman in Tony Scott's 1993 hit film True Romance, which was produced by Quentin Tarentino. He was still a little-known actor when Sopranos creator David Chase insisted that Gandolfini be cast in the star role of Tony Soprano when The Sopranos debuted in 1999.
Gandolfini went on to become a Hollywood icon, winning three Emmys and a Golden Globe in the six seasons he starred as the hulking, emotionally troubled mob boss.

He appeared in multiple films, among them Get Shorty, The Mexican, All the King's Men and most recently in Zero Dark Thirty. He also starred in Cinema Verite, another HBO production.

He was the producer of Alive Day Memoirs: Home from Iraq, an HBO documentary in which he interviewed 10 recently wounded veterans in a moving exploration of the effect war and violence had on their lives.
He lived in Greenwich Village and made news in 2010 for helping dig a stranded driver out of a car trapped by a blizzard. He also participated in the Concert for Superstorm Sandy Relief at Madison Square Garden last year.
He is survived by his wife, Deborah Linn, with whom he has a baby daughter. He is also survived by one child from a previous marriage.

“The Voice” capped off its season with a star-studded finale. Christina Aguilera returned to NBC’s singing competition to perform “Feel This Moment” with Pitbull on Tuesday’s show.
Nelly also joined Florida Georgia Line to perform their country collaboration “Cruise,” and Bruno Mars rocked the stage with his latest single “Treasure.” Love Bruno Mars!





NE NE LEAKES SCHEDULED TO BE MARRIED THIS WEEKEND..CHECK OUT HER DIVA DEMANDS

"I dream of Ne Ne" is becoming a real nightmare with her Diva like demands.  NeNe Leakes is having a star-studded wedding this weekend and sources have leaked her lengthy release form all guests are being forced to sign and the outrageous demands the realty star is making.

When the rich very rich as she's been know to say Housewives of Atlanta diva walks down the aisle with Gregg Leakes at the Intercontinental Hotel, the cameras will be rolling to capture every made-for-TV moment of the special day.
The release form, states the signer promise they “will not be under the influence of any medication or drugs that might impair my physical or mental ability to engage in the Activity or that might impair my judgment while engaging in the Activity.”

The guests need to be in top shape too, according to the document: “I represent that I am in good health and have no medical, physical, or emotional condition that might interfere with my engaging in the Activity.”
Another odd rule is the one that bars guests who are aspiring politicians!, in other words all this means don't try and upstage the second time bridezilla.
The form asks them to promise that they are “not currently and during one (1) year from today do not intend to be a candidate for public office.”
Guests attending NeNe’s wedding wont be paid for appearing on the show and they also can’t try and give producers any money to increase their air-time either.
“I represent and warrant that I gave nothing of value nor did I agree to give anything of value to anyone so I could be in the program,” the form states.
However, if the guests breach the contract they have to pay a whopping $50,000 for each infraction, the document states...girl stop!  Basically just show up and be a zombie!  I dream of Ne Ne scheduled to air this fall.

GONE GET OUT OF MY HOUSE FABULOUS...JUDGE EVICTS REAL HOUSEWIVES OF ATLANTA KENYA MOORE OUT OF HER MANSION


Were sure Kenya Moore is not to hurt, well only to save her reputation, because everybody knows Kenya Moore really lives in Los Angles.  Yes Kenya Moore won't be swirling around in her dress for this coming season of Real Housewives Of Atlanta in that mansion.  But not to worry, we are sure the Bravo execs are running to get her a new place stat, for her to film the upcoming fake reality show in.

Reality star Kenya Moore just got the heave-ho from the $3999-a-month mansion where she lives, RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned.

A judge in Fulton County, Ga., ruled in favor of Moore’s landlord on Tuesday, who had sued the former Miss USA for failing to make the full rent payment for May — she was $848 short — and defaulting on the terms and conditions of the lease.
The former Miss USA failed to turn up in court to respond to the complaint.
“I am making this statement as a result of the eviction order and judgment made against my former tenant, Kenya Moore, on June 18, 2013 in the Magistrate Court of Fulton County,” landlord Conya Weems told RadarOnline.com after the victory.
“The decision to file this eviction notice regarding Ms. Moore was reached after pursuing every possible amicable way to settle this matter privately.  I am grateful that the judicial system has brought finality to this eviction process and I look forward to regaining possession of my home.”
A source added: “Since the landlord is out of town on business, it may be a few days before Kenya has to officially leave because the Sheriff may require the landlord to be there for eviction. But if Kenya is wise, she’s packing right now.”

No word if cameras were rolling to catch the drama.

Disick plays a businessman, who is obsessed with Kanye and Yeezus, and goes to great lengths to show his appreciation for the music. When Cheban acts nonchalant about his work, Disick takes an axe and viciously murders him.

“Try getting the Yeezus album now, motherfucker!” he yells as blood spews everywhere.

Happy Father’s Day to the love of my life, my best friend, my husband Vincent Herbert! Our son Logan Vincent Herbert & I are proud to share this day with you!! We love you soooooo much!!” Braxton posted on Instagram Sunday evening.
 Tamar Braxton is a new mom to a baby boy — but that’s all the information she’s sharing for now. 
The singer, 36, and husband Vince Herbert first announced their pregnancy in March, when she was already seven months along. Why the wait?
“Vince and I [were] told we were going to have fertility problems — it was a lot of information — so we had to get comfortable with the fact that it happened on its own,” Braxton told PEOPLE at the time. “We decided [not to announce] until we were both really okay with it — that’s why we waited.”
The Tamar & Vince stars knew the sex of their baby on the way, but chose to keep that private as well.

“You’ll find out at the end of the summer,” she teased.
