Female Poet: Jasmine Mans speak on Nicki Minaj



I was totally blown away!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Obama on "The Daily Show"




"Are you disappointed in how it's gone?" Stewart asked.

Obama replied that the situation is no surprise given the country's high unemployment, underwater mortgages, and an overall poor economy. "Folks are going to be frustrated, and that's going to reflect on the political environment," Obama said. Obama said that in context, he's "feeling great about where the American people are, considering what we've gone through."

"We've gone through the two toughest years since The Great Depression."

Obama repeatedly expressed his frustration with Washington during the segment, railing against Republican obstruction and the culture of Congress.

He even endorsed the idea of changing Senate rules that require 60 Senators to vote to end a filibuster and approve legislation. "I would love not to have a 60 vote requirement," Obama said. He later added that he considers the D.C. culture "not always real healthy."

Stewart later wondered whether the "Yes We Can" slogan of 2008 still rings true today.

"Yes we can," Obama said, and then he paused. "But…"

"It's not going to happen overnight," the president finished over audience laughter.

But the most tense moment in Wednesday night's exchange centered on health care and devolved into harsh words and finger-pointing.

Stewart suggested the White House had been "timid" on health care by not making its position clearer and pressuring Congress to go further.

"I love your show, but this is something where I have a profound disagreement with you," Obama told Stewart.

"This notion that health care was timid?" Obama asked rhetorically. He said 30 million people are "going to get health care as a consequence" of the bill, insurers can no longer drop people, and kids can now remain on their parents' plans.

"I think most people would say this is the most significant piece of legislation in this country's history," Obama said, which drew applause from the audience.

Many Democrats have distanced themselves from the president and Democratic leadership this election year, but the president noted that not all electorally vulnerable Democrats have been running away from him.

"There are a bunch of folks who took really tough votes that they knew were bad politics because they knew it was the right thing to do," Obama said. He called out Virginia Rep. Tom Perriello, Ohio Rep. John Boccieri, and Colorado Rep. Betsy Markey by name. "I hope they are rewarded for their tough votes."

All three incumbents look likely to lose in their conservative districts. But the president has even scheduled a last-minute appearance with Perriello this Friday -- the president's first appearance for just a single House candidate.

Though there was laughter interspersed throughout Wednesday's show, the big jokes typically seen on the Daily Show were few and far between.

Stewart's questioning did lead to a lighter moment on the Comedy Central show, though. Asked why former Clinton Treasury Secretary Larry Summers was appointed one of Obama's chief economists in what was billed as a "change" administration, Obama was defensive.

"Larry Summers did a heck of a job," the president said in a very serious tone.

But the audience quickly began to laugh, clearly remembering George W. Bush's famous, "Brownie, you're doing a heck of a job," line to former FEMA chief Michael Brown during the Hurricane Katrina crisis.

Stewart interjected: "You don't want to use that phrase, dude."

Obama smiled and added, "pun intended."

Video: Nicki Minaj "Check It Out"

Kanye West Runaway and Amber's Response

If you missed Kanye West's "Runaway" video, here it is. To me, the video portrayed Amber Rose as a chicken head that hadn't seen much, and he showed her the world. In the mist of showing her the world, people reminded him that "she is beautiful, but did he realize she was a bird." Cheap shot to me, but Amber responded via her Twitter.com page. Peep the video, then peep her response.





Amber responded in a quite a classy way....Her's what she had to say

I Wrote my own show & Will Exec Produce it along with Den Of Thieves! I’m gonna show the world what I’m About! Can’t wait to start filming! For 2 years the media said what they wanted about me without knowing me at all & I kept my mouth shut…. Now, it’s my turn to talk.

Never wanted Fame Just Wanted Love….. God dealt me this hand so I’ll take it as a blessing. I loved a famous man & He loved me he showed me the World & a Whole new life…. Thank you



She didn't sound bitter and yes, she's about to start talking. I wonder what we'll find out about our fav Kanye that we don't already know!! LOL I'm sure she has some HOT TEA and I will be all in it!

Commercial: Lebron James

Lebron James revisited the spot where he announced "The Decision" for a new commercial for NIKE.

"Check It Out"

Nicki will be releasing this video along with 2 others before her anticipated debut album "Pink Friday," which hits stores Nov. 22nd.

Reggie Bush and Kim Kardashian still fued......

Sunday night on the season finale of “Keeping Up With The Kardashians”, Kim Kardashian aired a phone conversation between her and Reggie Bush that happened after the news broke that she was dating NFL Player Miles Austin. In the clip, she calls Reggie and he says “It is what it is, you are on your own now… I just felt like…the sh*t was literally driving me crazy”.

There was also another scene, where he goes off on Kim Kardashian because the car wash charged him when she took her car to get washed. When he called her about it, she told him they made the mistake because they both drive the same type of car. When Kim got off the phone with Reggie, she told her sisters that he said “Don’t ever call me again. Don’t ever f*cking charge a car wash to me again. You can have Miles Austin pay for it”.

It’s kind of hard to determine if the clip was chopped up to make Reggie sound like an angry bitter ex but Reggie was definitely not happy about it. Last night, he took to his twitter after the show aired and posted:

I kinda feel like the government right now! Lol! Man if they only knew what I knew about you!

Don’t make me expose you to those people who don’t know you…” -Jay Z (subliminal tweets)

Kim has also received a little flack from fans of the show who thought it was wrong that she would air a private phone conversation between the two. She addressed the episode on her blog in a post titled “My Most Emotional and Most Vulnerable Episode:

I saw some stuff on the internet saying I’ve put Reggie on blast for airing a phone call with the two of us. Reggie and I were in a relationship for over 3 years and we have taped dozens of conversations and iChatted many times while filming, so this is nothing new or scandalous

I think once you watch the episode you will really see that I in no way put anyone on blast! We are sharing a small bit of my personal life. Clearly so much more has gone on between us that no one hour episode can cover.
