Says Gayle to Us Weekly:

“It’s absolutely not true that she’s the godmother. She’s friends with them, of course, and likes them both very much. She’s working on sending them a baby gift. She hasn’t even had time to send a baby gift because she’s been away.”

“Let me just say, if (that report is) true, it is news to her. It is news to her. You know, she was heading to South Africa when the baby was born.”

Reports Boom Box:

During his time at Sundance Film Festival earlier this week, the 25-year-old ‘Take Care’ MC revealed that he can deliver a pretty spot-on impression of the U.S. Commander in Chief.

“I hope somebody makes a movie about Obama’s life soon because I could play him,” Drake told VH1. “That’s the goal. I watch all the addresses. Anytime I see him on TV, I don’t change the channel, I definitely pay attention and listen to the inflections of his voice. If you ask anyone who knows me, I’m pretty good at impressions.”

The Toronto rhymer, who dropped his sophomore album, ‘Take Care,’ in October, doesn’t seem to be a bad fit to portray Michelle Obama’s hubbie. Since he’s known for doing his own wild hand motions when rapping, Drizzy should be able to pick up Mr. President’s own signature hand move he showcases when emphasizing his bullet points to a nation of supporters.

Reports TMZ:

As TMZ first reported, Lozada put their wedding plans on hold after she suspected Ocho was stepping out on her.

But according to our sources, Ocho broke down this week and apologized. We’re told Ocho said he would do whatever it took to win her back and suggested the two go to couple’s counseling.

Our sources say Evelyn agreed and they will seek help to work out their trust issues.

Through a rep, Evelyn tells TMZ, “The strain from both our busy schedules started to take a serious toll on our relationship. Yet after spending some much needed quality time together, Chad and I are in a good space.”

Reports TMZ:

Elin bought the 9,000 square foot North Palm Beach home in March … right after she struck a $100 million divorce settlement with Tiger Woods.

Apparently, Elin felt the modest 6 bedroom, 8 bathroom pad wasn’t quite up to her standards … so she did the only reasonable thing — KNOCKED THE WHOLE PLACE DOWN!

Before.

After

We’re told Nordegren has hired a high-priced architect to build her dream home … and sources say every single worker is required to sign a confidentiality agreement.

No word on how long the project is expected to take — but we’re told Elin is living in a nearby mansion inside the private community while the new place is under construction.

Reports BET:

The South Florida-based Better Education Place named the two as the Best Male and Best Female Teacher after judging them on several categories and deeming them more influential than the teachers who actually commit themselves to children’s education.

“Apparently students are drawn in by the ‘swagger,’” says Melvin El, president of Better Education Place. “If you are a teacher today and you don’t have any swagger, you are going to struggle to get your students’ attention. It turns out a teacher can learn a lot from Lil Wayne and Nicki Minaj.”

Because the company encourages using hip hop to make education fun, they’ve deemed rappers worthy of receiving the awards.

Reports This is 50:

The war of words was sparked when one of Cher’s followers messaged her asking if she had heard a song by Nicki that was dissing her. “@cher did you know that b*tch @NICKIMINAJ dissed you in her song DIDITONEM,” asked the fan.

The lyrics in question are from Minaj’s song “Did It On ‘Em” in which she raps, “If you could turn back time–Cher/You used to be here but now you gone–Nair.” The song wasn’t a Cher diss and it’s highly likely Cher has never listened to it, but she replied back to the fan by writing, “Ive seen lots of people come & go! No biggie!”

That was all Team Minaj needed to see before they launched an attack on the singer. Nicki’s friend/hype man Scaff Beezy responded quickly. “Yo @cher listen to the words b4 you say dumb sh*t on twitter,” he wrote. “Do you know what a rap metaphore is??? TM is a cult you dont want it with!!”

One she realized she wasn’t being dissed in the song Cher apologized. “U R right ! Someone said I was dissed..I’ve been dissed b4,but instead of finding out I just got defensive ! I should know better.”

The argument should have ended there, but it didn’t as people continued to insult Cher who finally got fed up. “Gimme a fkn break! Said I was dumb!” she wrote before deleting her tweets. Nicki got wind of what was going on and messaged Cher, writing “@Cher #stopit5.”

Meanwhile, Scaff Beezy continued to rant. See below.

“I may be smiling in their face, but my antenna is up. When they’re trying to show off their cash or their watch, it’s an immediate turn-off,” she told Cosmopolitan. “I’m around millionaires and athletes every day who think, ‘All I need to do is get in a room with Nicki Minaj,’ and they’re gonna leave with my number. You can’t run a game on a rapper. I’m always 10 steps ahead of them.”

So what exactly does the Harajuku Barbie like in a man?

“I do like a dope nose profile, one that’s straight on the side. And I like full lips. I’ve never kissed someone who doesn’t have full lips.” The Young Money superstar admits she doesn’t view herself as pretty and that’s just fine by her. She compares her looks to Lady Gaga’s.

“We both do the awkward non-pretty thing. What we’re saying – what I’m saying anyway – is that it’s OK to be weird. Any maybe your weird is my normal. Who’s to say? I think it’s an attitude we both share.”

Reports HipHopWeekly:

Drake on loneliness:

“When you’re on the road and moving city to city, when someone isn’t there at the end of the night, you feel empty. The 15 or 20 seconds after a man reaches his climax is the realest moment he’ll ever have in his life. And if you happen to be with somebody that isn’t someone you want to converse with, you start feeling like, I wish I was just here watching True Blood by myself.”

Drake on his fake Twitter marriage to Nicki Minaj:

“I don’t know if we were really pretending. I’d marry Nicki. I think Nicki would be one of the only people that would understand me at the end of all of this and be able to love me.”

Drake on bringing girls home to mom:

“The most intense thing I’ve ever done was bring a girl to Passover dinner. [My mom] just wants me to be happy, but I’m sure she’d love it if I married a Jewish girl.”

Drake on receiving naked pictures:

“If you send them without me asking, it’s like, You’ve done this before. But I’m away a lot. If there’s a woman I’m into, I might want to get a picture from her to handle business myself, as opposed to doing something I might regret.”

Drake on threesomes:

“I’ve never had one. I swear. I’m a one-woman kind of guy.”

Drake on being hurt by Rihanna:

“At the time it hurt, but she didn’t mean to. I’ll never put that on her. I was hurt because I slowly started to realize what it was. I guess I thought it was more. That was the first girl with any fame that paid me any mind. You spend days reading about this person in magazines. All of a sudden you have this number-one song and you’re at some birthday party and there she is.

And you’re just some naive kid from Toronto staying in some shitty-ass hotel who got invited to this party on a whim. That’s just how it happened.”

Reports This is 50:

“If we decided to go at each other and then somebody ended up dead, everybody in hip-hop would be like, ‘Oh my God, it’s so sad what happened to them.’” Lil Mama tells XXL. “It’s just like what happened with Pac and Biggie. The same people that promote it and it’s sad.”

However, Lil Mama does admit there is no real animosity between her and Nicki.

“She came to my show… the greeting was beautiful. It was like, ‘Hi beautiful, how are you?’ you know what I mean. It wasn’t like ‘Hi,’ and then the name calling or screwed up face or anything negative. If someone has something negative to say about you or they don’t like you, they wouldn’t greet you and say, ‘Hello beautiful.’”
