Two men were arrested earlier this week for breaking into 50 Cent’s 52-room Connecticut mansion. The police were alerted of the break in around 6 in the morning when the rapper’s security team found a suspicious car in the driveway. Cops arrived to discover the robbers red handed with one of the thieves found hiding in the closet chugging a bottle of wine. Officials say that the men entered through an unlocked door and were in possession of marijuana when they arrived at the home. Both men are being held on a $50,000 bond. There was no word if 50 Cent was at home at the time.
Drake’s upcoming Central Park concert which was originally planned for July 16th as part of the Good Morning America concert series has been cancelled. City officials claim that the show’s organizers were unable to provide the amount of security needed by the police. If you recall, the same thing happened for the singer/rapper’s proposed June 10th concert at South Street Seaport after 25,000 fans showed up. Drake is just too popular for his own good. I just feel sorry for all those fans who are missing yet another show. But then again, safety is a huge issue that has to be dealt with properly.
Security had to dive into action, quite literally might I add, to protect Justin Bieber and Kim Kardashian during a photo shoot in the Bahamas last week after a 12-year old rushed the pop singer and the reality TV star on the beach. Sources on the shoot say that security had to dive on the overzealous fan to keep her away from the celebrities. Fortunately, no one was hurt and they eventually let the kid go. There’s no word on whether she was trying to get to Kim or Justin but the duo was with heavy security that day due to previous threats to Kim from jealous fans of Justin’s.
Fantasia Barrino may have a stalker as the American Idol champ, who is currently starring in ?The Color Purple? at the Pantages Theater in Los Angeles, received a hate-filled letter last week from someone who claims to have been a security guard on Fox when the singer was still on AI. The letter included numerous racial slurs and even said ?go back to where you came from and die?. What the heck? Fantasia has wisely beefed up her security in response to the letter and has told the media that she ?will not be defeated by one isolated person?s hatred.?
Jay-Z?s 40/40 nightclub in Atlantic City was the site of a violent fight between security personnel and club goers and now one of them is suing mad. Bryant Norwood was attacked and has filed a lawsuit for a substantial amount of money from the club since he?s claiming that the attack was unprovoked. His attorney said ?These so-called security personnel are going to have to answer why Mr. Norwood was lying on the ground being kicked and why he was punched in the head as he tried to escape from them. The 40/40 Club is going to have to answer why they hired people like this to supposedly protect their patrons and maintain order in their establishment.? The other two men in the attack are also planning to file lawsuits of their own.
A rabid male fan crashed the stage at a Jonas Brothers concert this past weekend in Madrid. I never knew they actually had male fans, but anyway. Unlike Britney Spears who infamously screamed when the same thing happened to her at one of her gigs, the band of cuties just kept on playing. It was a pretty hilarious sight. The guys were still playing and singing their little hearts out while the fan was running around in circles trying to get away from security and ripping his shirt off. There?s yet another story that they can tell the grandkids ? not!
