FACEBOOK FOUNDER IS NOW THE $20 BILLION MAN

 

SHOWTIME SAYS…

Facebook creator Mark Zuckerburg has officially cashed out!!!

The 28-year-old boss earned a cool $20 billion today after his Facebook IPO closed.

The stock was originally priced at $38 a share but ended the day at $38.23.  This is a bit lower than what many analysts predicted since Google stock was priced at $85 during it’s IPO in 2004 and finished at $100.34

 

 


SHOWTIME SAYS…

New video from The Arvherville Cartel for their new joint “Tag Team Champions”. I’m a fan of anything that has to do with professional wrestling, so the metaphors in this joint are especially dope to me.  Check the video and leave feedback in the comment section.

VH1 RELEASES CAST OF ATLANTA’S LOVE & HIP HOP

SHOWTIME SAYS…

Vh1 has finally announced the cast of the Atlanta chapter of their Love and Hip Hop franchise.

Even though it was rumored that Diamond from Crime Mobb would star in the show, she decided to eliminate herself once she found out that her ex boo Lil Scrappy and his mom were going to be involved. The “stars” of the show include producer Stevie J and his girlfriend Mimi Faust. There will also be story lines following the lives of Latin rapper Joseline and singer K. Michelle. Another woman named Karlie Reed will also be on the show.

Sounds like a bunch of D list celebrities will be reppin’ the ATL… But hey, whatever works.

SHOWTIME SAYS…

The Queen appeared on Dancing With The Stars last night and performed on their 80′s themed show.   Mary performed “Any Way You Want It” which is a cover of the rock group Journey’s classic song.

SHOWTIME SAYS…

Nas released his single “Daughters” to a whole lot of acclaim from fans and industry folks. In the clip above Nas gives us a glimpse of what the visuals will look like for the video. His daughter Destiny Jones makes an appearance in the video as well.

SHOWTIME SAYS…

Nicki Minaj is on the European leg of her Roman Reloaded tour.  As with most celebrity performers, Nicki has certain things that she requires before each show.  Below is a look at what Nicki indulges in before and after she performs

Also among her must-haves: contact lens solution, two space heaters and a cool-mist humidifier, 12 cans of Red Bull (six at room temperature, six iced), and 24 bottles of Snapple. The waffles should come with syrup, powdered sugar, whipped cream, butter and strawberries and the three 12-piece buckets of fried chicken should include no thighs but “lots of wings”.

But it doesn’t stop there.

Next up is a deli tray with turkey breast, grilled chicken breast, whole-wheat bread or rolls, yellow mustard and other condiments (seasoned salt and hot sauce).

There is, however, some good news for the Minaj cholesterol count, with a specific request for a salad of iceberg lettuce, sliced tomatoes, sliced cucumbers, green olives, light Italian dressing, tuna in water and low-fat crackers. Burp!

I don’t think Onika’s rider is too outlandish…what do you think about it?
