Weekend Fix: The Game Disses Jay and Bey; Plus Lil’ Kim and Lil’ Wayne News

The Game is not playing! For years the Compton rapper has been taking shots at Jay-Z, but he upped the ante recently (guess he really, really needs some publicity?) taking the drama overseas.  In a  concert in Madrid The Game repeatedly chanted “Fu–k Jay-Z….old ass ni–a” (and even got the crowd to join in!) before spitting a diss rap over Hov’s “D.O.A. (Death of Autotune)” beat. He let the low blows roll and even took shots at Beyonce rapping:

This isn’t about Beef/This isn’t about Destiny/I’m in Madrid banging the c-p-t/You got a bad b–ch word?/Ain’t no pu–y like hers?/Just ask the Mavericks, Rockets, and the Spurs/ I mean… I mean my b–ch don’t slang p–sy like that.”

Wilin’!  Now Jay has previously said that he won’t be responding to The Game’s taunts, but I wonder what he’ll have to say now that Bey’s name has been dragged into the picture?

In other crazy performance news: Lil’ Kim is scheduled to take the stage with Cyndi Lauper at a concert to honor South African President Nelson Mandela’s 91st birthday. All I want to know is who approved that!? While I’ve been know to get down to a Queen Bee song or two, somehow I can’t imagine the elderly Mandela rocking to “Big Momma Thang” overseas. Other performers include Stevie Wonder, Queen Latifah, Wyclef, Aretha Franklin, will.i.am and err T-Pain (doesn’t he seem a little out of place on this bill too? He better not wear that “Big A– Chain” he’s been rocking as of late!). Should be an interesting production to say the least.

Meanwhile, Lil Wayne’s being sued yet again for blowing off a concert. TMZ reports that Red City Entertainment is coming after Weezy for $432,000 for failing to appear at his own concert in the Bahamas (police went to check on the rapper when he didn’t show and found him unconscious). Wayne just canceled a European tour citing “health problems” earlier this month and has been sued for flaking on concerts in the past. I don’t know what’s wrong with this man, but I know one thing: with all these baby mamas and new tots on the way, he needs to stop playing and make that money. Those child support bills are about to start piling up real soon!

Did Will.I.Am Assault Perez Hilton?

Published by Dior Noir on Monday, June 22, 2009 at 3:00 pm.

Was Will.I.Am serving up boom boom pows off the stage last night? That’s what Perez Hilton claims. The gossip blogger is accusing the Black Eyed Peas front man of physically assaulting him at yesterday’s MuchMusic Awards in Toronto.

During the night Twitter lit up when Perez Hilton tweeted:

I was assaulted by Will.I.Am of the Black Eyed Peas and his security guards. I am bleeding. Please, I need to file a police report. No joke.”

Will.I.Am quickly shot back with a video of his side of the story maintaining that he never put his hands on the blogger, he simply asked him to stop disrespecting Fergie and the group on the blog:

I was the one that came to him with respect, and he was the one who called me a f–ot outside the club.” He also criticized the blogger for seemingly running to talk about the spat on Twitter before calling the police. “Sounds like somebody wants mad attention and is not really concerned about his health … Shame on you, shame on your behavior.”

That would be enough exchange in and of itself, but the two are continuing the beef today. This morning Perez shot back with his own video on his website and in an emotional, tear-stained tirade he said:

Will.I.Am made a video and he lied…I have 10million plus people that visit my website every day. I don’t need press, I don’t need publicity, I don’t need or want this. I didn’t ask for this. I didn’t deserve this. I like writing about other people’s drama. I don’t want drama in my own life.”

(Although curiously, later in the video he names Black Eyed Peas manager Polo Molina as the person who actually hit him. TMZ also reported that Molina turned himself into the police for the scuffle. If all that’s the case I ask, why is Perez calling out Will.I.Am?).

Today Will.I.Am jumped on the Twitter bandwagon, creating a new account to continue to defend himself.

All this back and forth is making my head spin! These celebrity “beef” situations are getting ridiculous! Where is the love?

Watch the videos and draw your own conclusions on what really happened and whether or not Perez is looking for (more) media attention, etc. I still find it hard to believe that Will.I.Am got gangsta, but remind me not to say anything bad about the Black Eyed Peas or Fergie just in case!

Walk This Way

Who performed at Fergie’s wedding to actor Josh Duhamel this past weekend?

One of her Black Eyed Peas bandmates, of course!

“Kid Rock was there with will.i.am rapping,” Fergie’s mother, Terri Jackson, said during an interview on Ryan Seacrest’s KIIS-FM radio show Monday. “It was an amazing show. It would cost you a fortune – and I’m sure it did – to see this show.”
