KARRUECHE TRAN
Karrueche Tran is throwing the baby out with the bathwater.
After news broke that Chris Brown fathered a child during their on-again, off- again, four-year relationship, Tran, 26, has called it quits.
She offered a few parting words to the troubled singer and his “family.”
“Listen. One can only take so much,” she tweeted. “The best of luck to Chris and his family. No baby drama for me.”
The 25-year-old “Loyal” singer, who’s currently on tour with Tyga and Trey Songz, is reportedly the father of a 9- month-old girl with a 31-year- old former model named Nia.
Brown also accused the model of fooling around with Drake while he was in jail, though he later apologized for his comments.

Rapper Waka Flocka Flame Cancels Concert At University Of Oklahoma
Thicke Must Pay Marvin Gaye’s Estate $7.3M
Rapper Waka Flocka Flame canceled a concert at the University of Oklahoma after video was released cap- turing members of its Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity singing racist chants about African-Americans.
Flame was due to perform April 25, but announced Mon- day he’s canceling.
He wrote, “I’m disgusted and disappointed in the ac-
A jury found “Blurred Lines” co-creators Robin Thicke and Pharrell Williams copied parts of Marvin Gaye’s 1977 hit “Got To Give it Up” for their 2012 song, and awarded $7.3 million to the late soul- singer’s estate.
Thicke and Williams have been battling Gaye’s children for a year over whether or not their bass-dri- ven, Grammy-nominated smash hit took too liberally from Gaye’s song.
“Blurred Lines” raked in about $16 million in profits for its creators and record la- bels; Thicke and Williams, who is also a judge on “The Voice,” made about $5 mil- lion each.

Both are listed as song- writers on the credits, but Thicke said Williams wrote it on his own.
Nick Gordon Checks Into Drug Rehab After Intervention With Dr. Phil
Angie Stone Arrested After Knocking Her Daughter’s Teeth Out
Bobbi Kristina Brown’s
month-long medically induced coma has sent boyfriend Nick Gordon spiraling, something he makes abundantly clear in his taped interview for “Dr. Phil.”
In the first clip from the conversation between the 25- year-old and Dr. Phil a dis- traught Gordon expresses trepidation over the thought of losing Brown, 22, so soon after losing her mother, Whit- ney Houston, who died after being found passed out in a bathtub like her daughter three years ago.
Before starting a romance with Brown, Gordon had been taken in by Houston when he was just 12.
Gordon, who was accom- panied to the taping by his mother, Michelle, was pan- icked throughout the inter- view, especially when told he needs to “man up” and go to rehab.
Nick Gordon is shown with his mom, Michelle on the Dr. Phil show.
“I’ve been so strong for so many people for so long, so please don’t tell me to man up,” he pleads with the talk show host.
The interview, which has been referred to repeatedly as an intervention, seems to have worked, as Gordon checked himself into rehab for drugs following the taping, but not before one last booze-and drug-fueled rampage in an At- lanta hotel, where he had to re- portedly be pushed around in a luggage cart.
Gordon’s interview with Dr. Phil aired Wednesday.
Grammy-nominated singer, Angie Stone was ar- rested in DeKalb County after police say she struck her 30- year-old daughter Diamond Stone with a metal stand and knocked out her front teeth.
According to Diamond Stone, the incident started Monday night when Angie Stone entered her room, demanded that she clean it up and ordered Diamond to control her children, who were running around the 53- year-old former “R&B Divas: Atlanta” star’s Rogers Lake Road home half naked.
Angie Stone stated in a DeKalb County police inci- dent report that Diamond Stone hit her in the face with closed fists first. “Ms. Dia-
ANGIE STONE
mond Stone then went on to state that Ms. Angie Stone started (getting) in her face, telling her she needed to leave because she is tired (of) her,” police said in the report. “Ms. Dia- mond Stone then stated her and Ms. Angie Stone started to argue, and that’s when a physical altercation started to occur.”
50 Cents Talks About Vivica Fox And His Son
One of 50 Cent’s former flames Vivica A. Fox ex- pressed the Queens rapper is the “love of my life” on The Meredith Vieira Show. 50 and G-Unit sat down with Angie Martinez, and the Power 105 host asked Fiddy about Fox’s comments.
“I saw that. I was like wow... At this point [I was sur- prised],” said 50 about Fox’s statement. “I didn’t know the [2003 MTV Video Music Awards] was going to publicly marry us. She knew better than I did what was going to happen. When the train is tak- ing off without you, you kind of feel uncomfortable... You don’t get to that point where the public is perceiving it... Women have the ability to be more advanced than men emotionally.”
Angie also asked the Queens native about his rela- tionship with his son Mar- quise Jackson. The 19-year-old basketball player is currently estranged from his

father. Marquise has even been seen associating with 50’s reported rivals Slow- bucks and Floyd May- weather.
“I don’t speak to him. With him that situation is so com- plex that I think over time [Marquise’s mother] has in- stilled her entitlement,” ex- plained 50. “My grandfather taught me your enemies’ enemy is your friend... You may not necessarily have an altercation with that person, but they’ll side with someone they think has an altercation with you on the common ground of disliking you.”
