02/02/2012 It man A$AP Rocky hit up 106 & Park to chat with Rosci and Terrence j.

Chris Brown Named GQ’s Worst Dressed Man

Chris Brown Named GQ’s Worst Dressed Man

02/02/2012  |  No Comments

02/02/2012 According to the UK version of the glorified men’s glossy GQ, singer Chris Brown has been named the Worst Dressed Man of 2012. Referring to Chris Brown as a “thuggish rapper-slash-singer” they present “evidence” dating back to 2005. Really 05? He was just a kid then!! Are the folks over at GQ (UK) being a bit shady? They had this to say in regards to their decision….lol…

    “For someone who seems to have so much disposable income — he boasts on one track about spending ’15 grand on a phone’ and charged over $500 for meet-and-greets on his last tour — Brown seems utterly adverse to investing in tailoring, combining the worst excesses of XXL sizing with a penchant for deeply unflattering costumes.”
    Hmmmm,!! I mean breezy is no P.diddy when it comes to fashion/style but he sure isn't a lil wayne who style is very much ummm an eyesore...OUCH!! He's made some bad hair selections but I haven’t seen any dreadful fashion selections. Would you agree with GQ (UK)?

02/01/2012 Early this AM I posted a status on Facebook how busy the suicide demon had been amongst the world, then I wake up to reports that Don Cornelius had committed suicide. I am saddened by the news. Making a permanent decision for a temporary problem is never the route. SEEK HELP. According to CNN Don Cornelius, the founder of the "Soul Train" television show, was found dead of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound to his head Wednesday, authorities said. He was 75.

    Cornelius died of a gunshot wound at a house on Mulholland Drive, said Los Angeles police Officer Tenesha Dodine. Police responded to the call about 4 a.m. (7 a.m. ET), Dodine said. Cornelius was pronounced dead at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, according to Lt. Larry Dietz of the Los Angeles County Coroner's Office. Los Angeles police investigators reported to the coroner that Cornelius died from a "self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head," coroner's Assistant Chief Ed Winter said. The coroner's office will perform an autopsy to confirm the cause of death
