BLAQUE MEMBER ARRESTED

I’ve heard this story time and time again (different singers) and I always wish it was different. Natina Reed from girl group Blaque was allegedly arrested for prostitution and cocaine possession a few weeks. She was supposed to be working on a reality show with her bandmates a couple of years ago but the project never got off the ground. At one time, she was engaged to rapper Kurupt (he’s since married someone else) and they share a child.
I think this situation is most sad because she has a small child. It makes me wonder what is so bad that she would feel the need to do this.
Are some people just not strong enough to enter the entertainment industry?
ENOUGH ALREADY

I guess I should have expected it but I just knew we would be over this. Last week, I was watching Extra and this guy comes on claiming that he was the late Michael Jackson’s boyfriend. He says Michael initiated the relationship and that they loved each other. For those that have been living under a rock for 25 years, rumors have surrounded Michael’s sexuality for years, even after he married Lisa Marie Pressley.
Here’s my thing: what’s the point? Really? What’s the point of bringing up Michael Jackson’s sexuality? It really doesn’t matter because it doesn’t change the impact he had on the global community. I mean, if it were true (and I do mean, if) would he really be the first entertainer to be on the down low. I know one deceased singer that I just knew would have been outed by now. I’ll give you a hint; he was an R&B singer.
Should entertainers be outed once they are deceased?
