Yes it is true! Both Scott Disick and his lady Kourtney Kardashian confirm that the two will be expanding their family!

In a statement released on E! Kourtney says, “Scott and I are so excited to announce that we are expecting our second child and are thrilled to be expanding the love in our family.”

As for now, Kourtney reveals “Now I’m nine weeks along, You’re supposed to wait 12 weeks to tell people, but I feel confident.”

As for Scott Disick, he tells Us Magazine, ”It wasn’t like we weren’t trying,” Disick, 28, says. “We kind of just said, ‘If it’s meant to be, it’ll be.’”

TMZ REPORTS:

“Rapper Lil Boosie was sentenced to 8 years of hard time for conspiring to smuggle drugs into prison … THREE TIMES. 

Boosie was in court inLouisiana Tuesday morning, where he plead guilty to three counts conspiring to bring drugs into a penal institution. 

The judge sentenced Boosie to 8 years in prison. 

But Boosie has bigger problems — he’s also been accused of 1st degree murder in the death of a 35-year-old man … and could possibly face the death penalty if convicted. 

Boosie’s murder trial is set to begin in April.”

Looks like the sexy luxury Maybach vehicles will no longer be sold due to lack of sales and profits. Rappers who have already purchased this car will now be able to brag about its rarity.

According to Necolebitchie.com

“Daimler AG revealed that they will be discontinuing their luxury Maybach vehicles soon due to low sales and lack of profits. Last year, there were reportedly less than 200 Maybachs sold, which carried a starting price of $375,250 — one of which Kanye West

To make up for the financial loss, Daimler Chief Executive Dieter Zetsche plans on expanding the company’s now three Mercedes-Benz S-Class model to six in 2013.”

“We came to the strong conclusion that the sales chances for the Mercedes brand are much stronger than those for Maybach.”

TLC singer T-Boz has filed for bankruptcy. The singer announced last year that she has been battling with both sickle cell anemia and a brain tumor, but it looks like her spending habits are more of an issue.

According to TMZ,TMZ Reports,

“Docs filed last month in U.S. Bankruptcy Court, T-Boz (real name Tionne Watkins) found herself owing creditors $768,642.99 — mostly from mortgages on her $1.2 million house.

The docs don’t paint a picture of exorbitant spending — she takes in $11,700/month in income, with monthly expenses totaling $8,821.

TLC had ten top ten singles, four number one singles, four multi-platinum albums, and four Grammy Awards … but according to the docs, T-Boz only pulls in $1,200/month inroyalties.

T-Boz might have dodged the bankruptcy bullet if she’d been able to collect the child support she claims she’s owed — which according to the docs is $250,000.”

Creator of Basketball Wives, Shaunie O’ Neal, has added two new castmates to Basketball Wives Miami.

The first new castmate is Kenya Bell. Kenya was arrested this past May for stabbing her husband, Golden State Warrior Charlie Bell in front of their 2 children. Allegedly the two were in the process of a divorce, but are still technically married. 

The second new castmate is Kesha Ni’cole Nichols.  Nichols ex fiance’ San Antonio Spur player Richard Jefferson called off their $2 million wedding just days before—via EMAIL—and didn’t tell the wedding guests until the day OF!  Jefferson also offered Nichols a 6-figure concession check, but reneged and locked her out of their apartment. Can you say drama?!

The new season airs this coming February….

Lil Wayne’s latest album, Tha Carter IV, has reached double platinum since its release three months ago and has now sold over 2 million copies.

On December 6th VIBE’s latest issue highlighting T.I will be released. In the latest issue T.I speaks about Osama Bin Laden’s death, his wife Tiny and more! Check out some excerpts below.

On The legitimacy of Osama’s death
If that really happened…. Man, I’m a conspiracy theorist by nature. You can’t experience the federal penal system and not be somewhat skeptical.

T.I. on all Americans having equal rights
Man, I will say this, the funniest joke I ever heard Tracy say during a stand-up was, ‘C’mon man, I think gay people are too sensitive. If you can take a d*ck, you can take a joke.’ [Cracks up laughing.] That sh*t was funny to me. And it’s kind of true.’ While T.I. makes clear that he supports anyone’s sexual preference, he then connects, in his opinion, a current oversensitivity among gay people with a consequential and ironic offense of the First Amendment. “They’re like,‘If you have an opinion against us, we’re gonna shut you down.’ … That’s not American. If you’re gay you should have the right to be gay in peace, and if you’re against it you should have the right to be against it in peace.’

T.I. on people criticizing Tiny for not taking the drug charge 
I’ma tell you, 50 Cent and anybody else, we not gonna have no discussion about what my ole lady shoulda, woulda, coulda done for anything as it pertains to me,” begins his rant. “We ain’t gonn’a do that. I’m the only one in my family that’s gonna take a lick when it pertains to the legal system. Since me, none of my other family members have seen a jail cell. Nobody. I’m the last one. The buck stops here. I feel that a person that stands behind [his woman for a criminal charge] is a coward anyway.

I doubt she would have gotten any time
She wasn’t gonna catch it period, ’cause I’m there. That wasn’t even a consideration. Even if she asked me to I would’ve been like, “Nah, you trippin’. “

So you didn’t feel you were more valuable to your family, employees and business partners on the street?
That’s a discussion between me and another man. Not with the mother of my children. Not with the nurturer of my household.

Ja Rule claims that after today, he has seen it all.

Ja Rule who is currently in jail right now pens his first letter to Allhiphop.com and speaks about a certain incident that he will never forget. 

Check it out..

“Today I can truly say I’ve been through it all.

A young kid comes in today they put him in the 18 cell right next to mine he looked kinda depressed coming in but nothing out of the ordinary a few hours go past and all of a sudden I hear someone choking he’s trying to kill his self. We all heard it everyone runs to their cell doors and start kicking,banging, calling the CO’s.

Now I’ve seen a person get shot and I’ve even seen someone die from a drug overdose but this was different this was suicide. It was like I can hear the life leaving his body the CO’s rush in the cell they saved him. I didn’t even think some shit like this was possible in these cells. He tied his bed sheet to a pole that’s attached to a sink which is about 3 feet off the ground made some sort of noose wrapped it around his neck then threw himself forward into a boston crab carmel clutch type position.

I never understood why a person would wanna kill themselves life is love & love is living it’s gods most precious gift. After they brought him back to his cell in the suicide suit he cried for hours we tried to console him telling him it’s never that bad to wanna kill yourself.

Turns out he just turned 18 and got his girl friend who is only 16 and her parents pressed charges and now he’s locked up on sex offender charges. He was in school for graphic arts to learn how to make video games. It’s sad cause he’s still a kid himself a good kid at that and now he’ll be forever labeled rapist or sex offender when really he’s probably just a kid in love.

Wow it’s crazy how 2 years can be so close but yet so far when your 18 & 16 it seems far because he’s now an adult and she’s still a teen, but when your 10 & 12 it’s cute and innocent and when your 18 & 20 nobody gives a fuck. It makes me think about Britt and her starting to date I’m not gonna lie at 18 & 16 I’d be at a cross road to but to ruin a young mans life & stain his future is not rite.

At 18 your legally an adult but your really still just a kid I remember when I was 18 I thought I knew everything about life & living as I look back now as a 35 year old man I realize I didn’t know shit LOL and I’m still learning & growing as a man. 2 years that’s what separates me from my family rite now and I look at it as short time but yet when Ish told me that Britt’s acting partner was 17 I almost had a fit even tho she’ll be 16 soon I’m sure he’ll be 18 soon and BAM there it is crossroad LOL.

It’s funny how God puts situations in front of you so you can see it clearly. I trust Britt I know me & Ish raised her well besides she hates Kids LOL. But I also know the intentions of a young man I got my eyes on you lil homie Don’t make me come back to this motherfucker!”
