Suge Knight gets arrested

Marion “Suge” Knight was arrested earlier this week for “allegedly” beating up his girlfriend of 3 years until she was unconscious. We say “allegedly” since he’s innocent until proven guilty but he  was actually caught in action by the Las Vegas police who arrested him.

It was approximatly 6:30 am and they were on their way home from Spearmint Rhino strip club when another woman called Suge’s cell phone. Melissa Isaac (his girlfriend) and him started to argue in the car, until Suge punched her in the head. She then grabbed the wheel of the car, a champagne-colored Cadillac Escalade, causing an accident so she could escape (according to her version).
When the car stopped, she got out and ran, but he managed to catch up with her and proceeded to throw her on the ground, kicking and punching her to the head several times. She blacked out and regained consciousness only to realize he was handcuffed and she was laying on the ground, bruised and naked.

When they arrested him, police said he had Ecstasy and hydrocodone on him, and he was holding on to a knife that he dropped on the floor as soon as a police officer took out his taser gun. He was charged with battery domestic-violence, assault with a deadly weapon, possession of a controlled substance and possession of dangerous drugs without a prescription.

The Death Row Records founder, known for his hot temper and his way of intimidating people (by dangling people off a balcony or by holding them at gunpoint in a studio, for example), was released on a $19 000 bail and will have to appear in court next September 26.

Rihanna is ruined… and looking for a place with Chris Brown

Bajan sensation Rihanna (20) and her boyfriend (oops! can we say that?) Chris Brown (18) are looking for a condo in Los Angeles so they could move in together.Why so early in their still “unofficial” relationship?

Could be because of her money problems.

Last week, a pissed off Rihanna fired her business manager Patricia Williams after realizing she had only 20 000$ left in her bank account, calling her names we’re not even allowed to think, accusing her of stealing her money.  No kidding; her last album, Good Girl Gone Bad sold approximately 5 million copies.   Where is all this money?

Williams defended herself by accusing Rihanna’s record label, Def Jam, and her manager, Marc Jordan; I now feel compelled to share with the world the background story as I will not allow my name to be slandered; Def Jam doesn’t fund Rihanna properly, so Marc uses the money Rihanna makes from third-party endorsements and from tours to fund her album and music videos (…) he uses her money to fund her future projects because he believes he can break her in the world-market.  Unfortunately, he didn’t inform his client and I’m receiving the brunt of it.”  Ouch!

So we’ll wait for who’s going to sue who and for how much.

In the meantime, the couple is looking for a soundproof condo.  They were seen visiting Beverly Hills’ Sierra Tower more than once this summer. At least she’ll have a roof over her head if Patricia or Marc get to what’s left in her account.
