Lil Wayne & Katie Couric?

Here's the preview for the interview that airs this week. All jokes aside, I think this is the first time I've seen Lil Wayne's real teeth. Honestly, I just kept staring at his teeth when I watched the clip. This should be very entertaining, but at least on the surface, it looks like Wayne does a better job than Sarah Palin did on her interview with Katie. LOL I spotted this video at one of my favorite blogs theybf.com

Stop Acting Like You've Never Taken a Hit from a Bong LOL

Leave Micheal Phelps alone...He's an Olympic Gold Medalist, he's NOT Jesus. From a PR standpoint, I like his statement because he's being honest. According to abc.com, he released the following statement:

"I engaged in behavior which was regrettable and demonstrated bad judgment," Phelps said in the statement released by one of his agents. "I'm 23 years old and despite the successes I've had in the pool, I acted in a youthful and inappropriate way, not in a manner people have come to expect from me. For this, I am sorry. I promise my fans and the public it will not happen again."

The Superbowl was Good, But J Hud was Great

I'm so glad to see her back on the scene after her family tragedy. I love Jennifer Hudson. So talented.

So says a small group of newspaper executives who this month organized an ad hoc group to alter perceptions and get the facts out… Dubbed the Newspaper Project, the grassroots effort includes the CEO and publisher of Philadelphia Media Holdings, Brian P. Tierney. [And executives from Parade, Community Newspaper Holdings Inc and others --ed]

Acknowledging that the newspaper industry faces challenges, the group roundly rejects the notion that newspapers have no future.
