Bill Cosby Is Not Dead, But He Does Have An Ap

Legendary comedian/actor BILL COSBY reported on his twitter account today that he was, in fact, still alive.  "Again, I'm rebuttaling [sic] rumors about my demise." (who says 'rebuttaling' ? lol)

This isn't the first time he's had to do some twitter 'rebuttaling' .   In February 2010, he had to tweet that he wasn't dead.

As you know, Bill Cosby is a legendary actor, comedian, family man, fan of the kids, and humanitarian.  He has recently been noted as one of Hip Hop & Rap's most outspoken complainer about the current etiquette of lyrical content and expression (lol).

Well, of course if he tweeted it, it must be true (DUH).  HE IS NOT DEAD (his career may be according to some people, but he's still-a-tweetin') he's very much ALIVE. "Not #Dead, lol", as tweeters would say.

"Again, I'm rebuttaling rumors about my demise. But, I'm confirming I have an app - http://bit.ly/BillCosbyApp :) "
"Emotional friends have called about this misinformation. To the people behind the foolishness, I’m not sure you see how upsetting this is. " are some of the other tweets he tweeted today.

WTF...back up...He has an AP?
Yes, he does!   He's a baller, #thisguy.  I mean, how many people have their own AP (#kickrocks, haterz!).  The ap is advertised on iTunes! 'This is a FREE app for Bill Cosby fans young & old. You'll find rarely seen videos, concert information, audio books, & more! For more information about this app & other Bill Cosby apps please visit http://www.billcosby.com/mobile ' (a little free PR Plug for Mr. Jello Pudding Pop from me to him".

He actually tweets quite a bit from his twitter account located at http://twitter.com/BillCosby .  That's right, @BillCosby , a proud Verified Twitter Account member of Twitter World sporting 1,189,408 followers.  He tweets about all kinds of things; from his viewpoints to his events that he's having to even sarcastic remarks to his fans (yes, he tweets to fans).


I'm still waiting on that tweet about me getting free Jello Pudding Pops! @BillCosby follow @AtticaLundy ,#youaretheman !

Lindsay Lohan Released and Booted to Rehab...again

It never fails. Lindsay Lohan has made it to the news again on a not-so-positive note.  I mean, being released from prison is great...and going to rehab is a great beginning...but dayum, Lindsay-can't we get some REALLY good news out of you?  Get your shit together, girl, because you were where a lot of young actresses would love to be and you just threw it away.  #Fail

So the big news on Lindsay is that she was released from jail (again) and is headed to rehab (again)...and this is the big story on CNN today. She was released from California’s Lynwood Correctional Facility early this morning. She's ordered to go to rehab and to remain sober for 1 year (until August 2011).  I hope she learns her lesson.  It only took me 1 blackout to learn that I couldn't get loose off da Goose.---but this chick hasn't learned from her mistakes. Hopefully she'll turn over a new leaf and get her *ish together.  SMH at CNN for making this story a priority, though.  Blogging, yes, CNN news...ridiculous.

He couldn't even get into the building an onto the stage before people began pointing at him and chanting "Drop That Pack Off".  Of course, when Lil Hot did hit the stage, he gave the fans what they'd been waiting for.  "Trap Spot", "Drop That Pack Off", and of course "I Fucked Her" were among most requested.
