Akon 's beef with Xtina/sues someone /fans go crazy


Akon seems to be in the news at least once a month .This time for saying that Christina Aguilera is swaggerjacking his signee Lady Gaga.He is quoted by a bunch of sites including theybf as saying,

"Honestly, Gaga and Christina could probably get together and do something that's amazing. But that's impossible if they are both trying to do the same exact thing musically.
(Aguilera is) not even any competition. You are actually giving Christina too much credit. She always had her cool little look and way about how she went about things. But soon as Gaga came out, everything switched up. Christina stepped out of her own shell to become something different."..wait,hasnt Christina been around longer than Gaga?just saying...

So finally Akon is doing the suing..hes suing his former business partners ,"alleging they used his name for a new perfume without permission.the Smack That star was stunned when perfume executives formed Konvict Cosmetics International and started selling a scent called Konvict without his approval. "..

And my friend sent me this video of Akon getting a heroes welcome when he journeyed to Liberia (I think).Craziness!

Akon mobbed ...


This other one is hilarious too and shows Akons brother and CEO of Konvict music ,Bu calling up a dude that stole his identity.Apparently the dude was getting into clubs free saying hes Akons brother ..lmao at anyone who would want to be BU..

BU goes in on Imposter..

Akon refused visa in Sri Lanka ? Lupe writing a book?+new music



Senegalese singer Akon was denied a visa to Sri Lanka where he was supposed to perform.According to BBC News ,"The ban comes after protests over one of the star's music videos featuring scantily-clad women dancing in front of a statue of Buddha".

Akon did apologize saying he has no idea he had offended some religious groups and his people had "postponed" the show then later cancelled it.Now it looks like Maldives will be welcoming him with open arms as President Mohamed Nasheed's press secretary Mohamed Zuhair claims the hitmaker has accepted the offer to play in the Maldives.

Zuhair says, "We are very happy he is planning to come and perform." The concert is scheduled to take place a day earlier than planned, on April 23.

In other news, fresh off a week long trip to the top of Mt Kilimanjaro,Lupe Fiasco is writing a book.About a window-washer...yeah im as clueless as you ..he stated "I’ve been telling stories and Hip-Hop has been an extension of me telling stories so it’s kind of like me putting it in a more traditional form as far as a book.No date is set as of now..his new album lasers is being promoted now with the singles Lean and "Resurrection " which he did with his buddy Kenna (ethiopian singer ) .The song is a tribute to Haiti..

Akon tells baby mama to find him on Myspace?


Isnt this just interesting?one of Akon's baby mama's Sara Coleman threatened to put out a FULL PAGE ad in the LA times paper threatening Akon to pay up child support.
According to the ybf,
"Akon’s baby mama says she wants her cash from Mr. Akon. Now. He’s been late on the child support payments apparently. According to her lawyer, Farrah/Sara Coleman is taking out a FULL PAGE ad in the L.A. Times putting Akon on blast saying she hasn’t been able to find him to deliver his legal papers demanding him to pay up. Then the TMZ cameras caught up with Akon yesterday and he responded with “She can find me on Myspace…”

Heres the video of Akon saying ""You got a hold of me and you ain't even trying. I'm a celebrity. My schedule is on the internet. You can go on my MySpace, it'll tell you where I'm at!"

VIDEO CAN BE SEEN HERE.
Akon to Baby Mama: Can't Find Me, Try MySpace!

Are Wale and SOL just friends?pics +video/Akon releasing MJ single?


U guys will remember the pics I posted up of Wale and Solange in Central Park having a picnic and listening 2 music?Well..even though she said on twitter that them two are just "friends"(they all say that)and even though they are "working together" music wise,we hear rumours that maybe they are getting to know each other better..or maybe they are already dating.A pic surfaced of Solange attending Wale's bday party in his Dc hometown at the PARK.Wale does not appear in the pic.
However,a video interview conducted by theybf.com with Wale may or may not tell us that they are dating.Skip to 1:30+ when he shrugs when asked about Solange and says "thats my hommie"..hmm...oh well...other rumours are that Wale got to perform at the VMA'S because of Jay Z.since he may be dating Sol,apparently she put in a good word for him 2 jay z.I dont blive that.I mean Jay doesnt organize the VMA's and Wale is pretty talented on his own so he doesnt need backing like that.

WALE AND SOLANGE DATING?

In other celeb news,and as you can see from the video ,Akon was asked about whether he got the go ahead to release MJ's single and he said he couldnt talk about it yet.I guess we'll have to wait....

Akon shoots new Video(pics!)+dosen't have 7 wives+running for Prez?




I guess Akon remembered that the best girls reside in Africa and decided to shoot a video in South Africa while he was there recently.I dont know if this will be a track from his "Freedom "Album or from some new song.Ne way,peep the pics.

Speaking of women,in an interview with Arise Magazine ,Akon says that the craziest rumor he has ever heard about himself is that he has "7 wives".He never mentioned how many he does have .
"..People believe it.Then everytime you see me I'm with a beautiful model.You want beautiful girls next to you because it brings money".
He then went on to say that he plans to retire in 2015 .
"Im going to be in Africa sipping pina coladas.A place in senegal and one in Capetown.Can you Imagine?"..(umm..*blank stare)
Speaking about politics ,he says ,"I see myself attached to politics,but not fully fledged.Attached-and standing next to the Us president"
Okay then...

Akon news:he stands up his own prez/Micheal J made him a better father?


Apparently the prez of senegal has put Akon in his "black book" because the "Lonely" singer didn't show up at a meeting that the two had set up.The meeting was supposed to be a press conference where the two would discuss the third festival or world black arts that should be happening in senegal this year.Akon attended a meeting at the UN in Ny some months ago to discuss this concert with diplomats and ambassadors and this conference was supposed to be a way of letting the public know the details of the event.Not a good look Akon.If I was the president,I would tell him to refund me for the ticket (just saying).
Oh and in an interview with Rap Up magazine ,Akon compared himself to the beatles.When asked how he is received whenever he arrives in Africa for performances, "It's like when the Beatles first came to the U.S times 10.Ridiculous"...yeah right Akon.
Oh and he says he gets mistaken for Tyrese all the time.Yeah right.

Heres a video of Akon talking about how MJ inspired him to be a better father.

Want to smell like Akon?/bff's with sa president ?/mugshot pics


Because it is not enough to sell millions of records and have a clothing line and be a producer,Akon has added to his Konvict empire by going into the perfume industry.According to hip-hopcrunch.com ,
"Akon is the latest entertainment notable joining the celebrity scent craze. The “Smack That” star will launch two new fragrances later this year.

"Akon recently formed Konvict Cosmetics, and he is planning to launch Konvicted, a scent aimed at younger consumers, and Aliaune, titled after the singer’s real name and marketed toward a more mature audience".
There were rumours that Akon was afraid for his life after the death of Dolla,one of his Konvict artists,although he seems to be busy touring the globe.
He has been tapped to do the theme song for the world cup 2010 and he met up with south african prez Jacob Zuma recently to dicuss that.Before the meeting ,he said

“I’m going to South Africa for a meeting about the 2010 World Cup. I’m the official music coordinator. It means I’ll produce the official World Cup song and I’ll oversee all the official music,”
And Akon's mugshot for when he was arrested for throwing a kid offstage last year has been released.Still looking ashy as hell.
