Jerry Sandusky Is Sentenced To 30 to 60 Years For Child Abuse
Former Penn State University assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky was sentenced to 30 to 60 years in prison Tuesday for abusing 10 boys he met over 15 years through his charity for troubled children.
Sandusky — who was defensive coordinator and for many years the presumed heir-apparent to legendary Penn State football coach Joe Paterno — could have faced as long as 400 years for his convictions on 45 counts of child sexual abuse.
But McKean County Common Pleas Court Judge John Cleland, who was brought in to hear the trial after all of Centre County's judges recused themselves, told Sandusky that at age 68, he would be in prison "for the rest of your life."
"The crime is not only what you did to their bodies but to their psyches and their souls and the assault to the well-being of the larger community in which we all live," Cleland said.
Sandusky's lead attorney, Joe Amendola, told reporters outside court that he would file an appeal within 10 days, saying he hadn't had enough time to prepare an adequate defense.
Three of Sandusky's victims addressed the court, some of them speaking tearfully to Sandusky. They told of how they had looked up at Sandusky as a mentor, only to have him betray their trust.
"You were the person in my life who was supposed to be a role model, teach honor, respect and accountability, and instead you did terrible things that screwed up my life," said one of the victims, whom NBC News isn't identifying.
"You had the chance to plead guilty and spare us the testimony," he said. "Rather than take the accountability, you decided to try to attack us as if we had done something wrong."
Another said: "I have tried to think of the words to describe how Jerry Sandusky has impacted my life. There are no words adequate to express the pain and misery he has inflicted in the past, present and future.
"He promised to be my friend and mentor. Then came the ultimate betrayal and deeds. He humiliated me beyond description."
For his part, Sandusky — as he did in a surprise audio statement Monday night on the Penn State student radio station — insisted that "I didn't do these alleged disgusting acts."
Saying he had been advised against speaking at length, Sandusky told Cleland that "as I began to relive everything, I remember my feelings. So many people were hurt, and my eyes filled with tears. It was a horrible time in life to witness, to listen to, be a part of."

Chad "Ochocinco" Johnson Gets Evelyn Tatted On Him
I guess this is one way to try to get your woman back...Recently Chad has been pretty hush hush but he did find the time to post these pics to his Instagram of his new tat of his soon to be ex wife, Evelyn Lozada. Now that Evelyn is going on all these different therapy driven shows and doing interviews do you think she will go back to Chad or stay away for her image like a certain pop singer whom we all know. I guess with Basketball Wives Miami season soon to come towards the end of the year we will all get to see how this story unravels.
Evelyn Deals With Issues From Her Past & Domestic Violence On New Iyanla Vanzant Show, 'Fix My Life'
After all of the criticism in the press over her angry antics on ‘Basketball Wives’, coupled with the humiliation of being involved in a domestic violence incident with her now estranged husband, Chad Ochocinco Johnson, it seems as though Evelyn may be ready to make some positive change in her life.
Earlier in the Summer, she agreed to take part in Iyanla Vanzant’s new series, ‘Fix My Life’ with hopes of addressing some of her personal issues but it seems as though Iyanla had to pay Evelyn yet another visit after the head-butting incident with Chad which left her with a gash on her forehead. In the preview for the show, which airs in two parts on September 15 and 22, Iyanla asks Evelyn, ‘How did you get to stitches in your forehead, living in a hotel‘? It is also alluded that Evelyn has been pushed and shoved before while in a relationship with Chad and she reveals that the one thing that scares her the most is, ‘Not Being Loved’.
During the session, Iyanla also works with Evelyn to confront her past and uncover some painful memories and resentment that have shaped her attitude and temper with hopes of helping her move on to a more positive future.

Terrance J Replaces Ryan Secrest As The New E News Host Alongside Giuliana
After announcing his departure from BET’s 106 and Park back in May, he has now confirmed that he will be sliding into Ryan Seacrest former spot as the new co-host of E! News. His new gig at the anchor desk alongside Giuliana Rancic will begin on November 12.
According to E!’s President of Network Strategy, Terrence J’s resume and connections were an attractive look for the network:
“Terrence Jenkins is a talented and well-connected television personality who will bring an original sensibility to our news programs. Coupled with lead anchor Giuliana Rancic’s proven experience, [Jenkins' arrival] should help cement ‘E! News” stature as the leading source for news across pop culture.
Although, Ryan Seacrest will remain managing editor of E! News, he left his role at the anchor desk back in January due to his busy schedule which includes American Idol, executive producing numerous reality shows, and his daily radio morning show.
Congrats to Terrance J he is really showing that you can be a black man or woman from a HBCU and really grind out here and get where you wanna be in this world. I hope he continues to do great things in the future.

Nicki Minaj Soon To Be Named One Of The New Judges On American Idol
It looks like Mariah Carey may finally have some company at the “American Idol” judges’ table.
As has been widely rumored, Nicki Minaj will soon be announced as a new judge on the FOX reality series, multiple sources have reportedly told Us Weekly.
Despite no official confirmation from “Idol” or FOX, one source said the outlandish “Super Bass” singer is “100% confirmed” while another told the mag Nicki is “definitely doing it.”
In addition, a source who spoke on condition of anonymity told the Associated Press that a deal between Nicki and “Idol” was in the works.
Reps for FOX and Nicki were not immediately available for comment on the report when contacted by Access Hollywood on Monday.
As previously reported on AccessHollywood.com, Mariah Carey was officially announced as a new “Idol” judge in July, during the FOX presentation at the Television Critics Association summer tour in Beverly Hills.
“I am so excited to be judging ‘Idol,’” Mariah said through FOX boss Kevin Reilly’s speakerphone during the presentation.
Also rumored to be joining the judges’ table for the upcoming season is Nick Jonas – who not surprisingly has the backing of fellow Jonas brother Joe.
“I hope so… I think he would be great at it,” Joe Jonas said last week on Access Hollywood Live, when asked about the possibility of Nick joining “Idol.”
Nick, himself, also confirmed he was a potential candidate to fill the empty judge’s seat.
“The rumors are true… I am being considered to be a judge on American Idol, and it would be a dream come true if it happens,” Nick Tweeted on August 4.
The incoming stars would replace the departed judges – Steven Tyler and Jennifer Lopez – on the show.
There has been no comment from FOX yet on the fate of original judge Randy Jackson, although it’s been rumored he may step away from the judges’ table and take on a mentor’s capacity on the show.
Season 12 of “American Idol” debuts this winter on FOX.

Janet Jackson Is Still Very Determined To Get Michael Jackson's Will Changed
Janet Jackson's management team has made it clear in a new statement that the singer is still questioning the “veracity” of brother Michael Jackson’s will. But why is Janet now saying something is wrong now, three years after the will was probated?
“No one can understand why she is doing this,” a Jackson insider tells me. “Even if Janet got the executors fired and new ones instated, all the money would still go to Michael’s three children, Prince, Paris and Blanket. The executors took the estate, crippled in debt, and have made a fortune for the children. It almost seems that she's trying to take the money away from his kids."
And that is exactly what several Hollywood insiders have said is at the root of all these problems: Are the three kids really Michael's and if they are not, should they be getting the King of Pop's millions?
A statement posted on her website says Janet has nothing to gain financially by finding the will to be invalid. Confirming that Michael’s children are the beneficiaries of his estate, the statement says the people who have the most to lose are “the executors and those on the executors' payroll.”

Mariah Carey's New Single, Triumphant Is A Billboard Flop
It was titled Triumphant, but the only thing triumphant about Mariah Careys new single is the name as its deemed a complete fail. In the first week, Triumphant sold just 23,000 downloads. The comeback song did not even crack Billboards Top 100, coming in at 115.
I wish that all these artists would stop thinking that just because they put a member of MMG on their track that it's gonna be a definite hit. C'mon people make it a hit whether there's a feature or not. If you haven't heard the track listen below:
Lauryn Hill Turns Down The Possibility of an Oprah One on One Interview
Oprah has interviewed everyone from Michael Jackson to President Obama, but there’s one celebrity who has evaded her. According to the media mogul, Lauryn Hill turned down an offer to sit down with her.
Following her revealing interview with Rihanna for “Oprah’s Next Chapter,” one of O’s Twitter followers asked her to get Lauryn Hill on her show, but the elusive superstar was not interested. “Tried. She said no,” tweeted Oprah.
Winfrey has scored exclusive interviews with Whitney Houston’s daughter Bobbi Kristina, 50 Cent, the Kardashians, and Paris Jackson for the latest season of her OWN program.
Another star who’s not quite ready to have a heart-to-heart with Oprah is Beyoncé. While the private singer appeared on her daytime talk show several times, she has been reluctant to say yes to an in-depth interview. “See if you can convince Beyonce, I haven’t had luck yet,” Oprah told one fan.
The embattled Fugees frontwoman is facing three years behind bars after intentionally failing to file tax returns in 2005, 2006, and 2007. She will be sentenced in November.

Exclusive: Ochocinco Arrested for Brutal Head Butt To Wife Evelyn Lozada-Johnson
Yesterday, Chad Johnson (better known as Ochocinco before he changed his name back), was arrested for domestic violence after he allegedly head butted his new wife Evelyn Lozada. According to NFL.com, the two got into an argument while driving home from dinner after Chad found a receipt for a box of condoms belonging to Evelyn [Update: There are conflicting stories on this..the Davie Police chief has been quoted as saying that it was Evelyn that confronted Chad over a receipt she found for a box of condoms]. The cops were called and when they arrived, Evelyn had a nice sized laceration on her forehead. Chad told police that he and Evelyn accidentally knocked heads, however he was arrested and she was taken to a nearby hospital.
As of now, Chad is still in jail and is not eligible for release until a bail hearing is set which could be as late as Monday.
The couple were married on July 4th and are set to appear in a Basketball Wives spinoff show ‘Ev & Ocho’, complete with a wedding special, which will premiere in September.
Meanwhile, VH1 producers are probably trying to figure out how to spin this. You couldn’t make this type of stuff up.
Hopefully this was all an accident. In the 12 years that he has been in the NFL, he has never been arrested.
As of this morning, Chad has been released on a $2500 bond and ordered to stay away from Evelyn until this is resolved.
Meanwhile, here is a little bit more clarity on exactly what happened via CBS News:
Allegedly, the argument between Johnson and his wife started in their vehicle when they were returning from dinner. Lozada apparently found a receipt for a box of condoms, and as they argued, Lozada told police that Johnson head-butted her, causing a laceration that needed to be treated. Johnson told police they accidently knocked heads.
“It gets pretty heated,” Davie police captain Dale Engle told the South Florida Sun Sentinel. “By the time they get home here in Davie, it’s pretty heated. She alleges he leaned over and head butted her. He says she leaned towards him and that they butted heads. Needless to say she has a good laceration on her forehead.”
Looks like someone is finally gonna beat Kim Kardashian to divorce court!! Watch Ochocinco's court hearing video below:

In Studio Performance: Iggy Azalea featuring T.I. - "Murda Bizness"
When i first saw Iggy Azalea i admit i had no intentions on every listening to any of her music, she just didn't look like some one who was worth listening to in my opinion. To my surprise i came across this in studio video of her and T.I. recently and i LOVE herrrrrr. She truly is a example of don't judge a book by its cover cause she doesn't sound at all like how she looks. If you haven't heard any of her music this is definitely a good song to start with.
Last Friday Movie Confirmed To Be Released Next Year
For a while, there have been rumors about 42-year-old rapper/writer/producer, Ice Cube, putting his 1995 “Friday” movie series to rest with a final film. In an interview with MTV, Ice Cube (real name O’Shea Jackson) finally confirmed the rumor. He announced that he is currently finishing up the writing for the final movie, which is titled “Last Friday.” He also confessed that he had trouble getting Chris Tucker to be in the new movie (Tucker played Smokey in the previous films).
Now that Tucker has gotten a good relationship with the Lord he feels that playing a pot-smoker is against his religion. But Ice Cube seems to have worked his magic and gotten Tucker to agree to act in this last installment of the series. Of the movie, Ice Cube said,
“I’m still writing [the screenplay]. I’m still in the process, I’m deep into it… [The title is] Last Friday. I want [Chris Tucker] to be in it. He’s given us every indication that he’s gonna be in it. Until he shows up on set, you never know. That’s really how it goes. I’m almost finished with the script, so as soon as we can finish the script, fast motion on it.”
As if “Last Friday” isn’t enough, Ice also mentioned the biopic and the album that he’s working on. The biopic is to be about N.W.A, the Hip Hop rap group from Compton that was most popular in the late 80s and early 90s. Ice Cube was a part of the group, along with Eazy E, Dr. Dre, and a few other young rappers. Of this film, Ice Cube said,
“The script is getting tighter and tighter, and once the script is tight as sweaty butt cheeks, we’ll put it out, and we’ll start working on it.”
The album that Ice Cube is working on will be his first since 2010. The project is not yet officially titled, but the rapper is leaning towards naming it “Everything’s Corrupt.” he told MTV that we can expect, “Hardcore, West Coast hip-hop” from the album.
