DMX got into a screaming match with security when he arrived to Colorado Springs charity concert nearly one and a half hours late after security was told that he was scheduled to perform. The rapper, his bodyguards and fans eventually got into a shoving match with security in front of the stage, while the crowd, who had already been told that DMX wasn’t going to show up, began chanting for the rapper. DMX eventually got on stage but the sound system was reportedly turned off so he couldn’t perform. I think that he’s the only guy who could make a charity event into a melee.

David Gest has donated some of his rare Michael Jackson memorabilia to raise money for charity.

The reality star has given up the items, which he collected during his years of friendship with the King of Pop, for an online auction.

The items include a rare signed photo of Michael wearing a veil as well as a signed Thriller record.

David said: “I am delighted to donate this rare Michael Jackson memorabilia from my personal collection to two very worthwhile charities, Liverpool Unites and the Variety Club children’s charity, which I strongly support.

“Liverpool has become a second home to me and my affinity for the people of this illustrious city has only grown stronger during the last three years when I left I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here.”

It was originally reported that Katherine Jackson will receive 40 percent of son Michael Jackson’s estate with 40 percent going to the late singer’s children and 20 percent going to charity. However, it is ultimately up to the trustees to decide the amount of money to go to the beneficiaries. Regardless of not receiving her whole share from the get go, Katherine has plenty of cash as she’s getting a large allowance at the moment and once the trust is active, she will receive more. Whatever remains in her trust at the time of her death will automatically go to the King of Pop’s kids.

I don’t think that it’s a good idea to wear any bling resembling bullets at the airport but apparently, Snoop Dogg thinks otherwise. While going thru Beirut International Airport, the rapper had to give up his necklace which had a diamond studded bullet. I know that security was just doing their job but I don’t think they could have done anything with that. The irony in it all was that the necklace is actually an anti-war message supporting the Bullets 4 Peace charity. At least the bling is for a good cause but Snoop may need to think about what he wears before going thru any airport again.
