MARY J. BLIGE APART OF BENEFIT CONCERT FOR AUSTRALIAN FLOOD VICTIMS

Mary J. Blige has joined forces with other entertainers to raise money for Australians suffering from massive floods throughout the region.

Blige is joined with Sean Paul and Maxi Priest to perform at Birsbane's Raggamuffin Music Festival Reggae For Recovery— Flood Relief Benefit Concert on January 30 where they pledged a portion of their ticket sales to the Premier's Flood Relief Appeal.

WENN reports:
Organizers of a series of shows in Australia featuring Mary J. Blige, Sean Paul and Maxi Priest have vowed to donate proceeds to a relief fund for victims of the country’s devastating floods.

The state of Queensland was plunged into a state of emergency this month as heavy rain caused massive flooding throughout the region – at least 25 people have died and thousands of residents have been forced to flee their homes. The floodwaters have now also affected the state of Victoria.

Blige and Priest are among the stars due to perform at Brisbane’s Raggamuffin music festival on 30 January, and organisers have now renamed the gig Reggae For Recovery – Flood Relief Benefit Concert.


Concert organizers also pledged 10 percent of proceeds in four cities the festival will visit to disaster funds.











The BBC has officially reported New South Wales a disaster area where water levels have reached as high as 18 feet! More than 1,000 people have been evacuated from the area. The photos looks like the Australian version of New Orleans' Hurricane Katrina.

50 CENT "THINGS FALL APART"

Has 50 Cent Curtis Jackson thrown in the towel on making music? It's a possibility now that he has focused more of his attention on the film industry. Through his production company Cheetah Vision, launched in 2009 with partner Randall Emmitt, Jackson will star in the film Things Fall Apart under the directorial vision of Mario Van Peebles.

The film's plot is nothing extraordinary as the film centers around a star football running back, played by Jackson, who faces a personal tragedy as well as his own mortality while in his senior year in college. The film will also star Mario Van Peebles, Lynn Whitfield, comedian Mike P and Steve Eastin.

Running backs in football are slim and lean athletes, so expect to see a trimmer Curtis some time this year. It's rumored that he's aiming to drop 65 pounds for the film.



This new venture might not be so bad after all since Cheetah Vision plans to co-finance and self-finance three to five films a year. The company recently wrapped up production on The Gun starring Val Kilmer, AnnaLynne McCord and Jackson in Michigan.





Why the change in industries? Curtis explains, "You have 90 minutes and 120 pages, compared with three minutes for a song. I've become very passionate about making films."

When it comes to Box Office sales, "Men lie. Women lie. Numbers don't." As long as 50 understands that, his new fondness for the film industry will probably be interesting prospect to watch unfold.

T.I. Prison Punishment For ‘Frisky’ Acts With Tiny

T.I. is in trouble for getting ‘frisky’ with his wife Mrs. Piggy Tiny:

Rapper T.I. got in some serious trouble with prison officials this weekend — after guards caught the most famous inmate in Arkansas getting “frisky” with his wife during visiting hours … TMZ has learned.
T.I.’s wife Tiny confirms … the two were in a room together during regular visiting hours at Arkansas State Prison when Tiny made like Michael Jackson … and beat it.

According to prison guidelines, inmates are allowed to kiss and embrace at the beginning and at the end of a visit as well as hold hands — but “the inmate’s hands must remain in plain view of Visiting Room staff at all times.”

Tiny tells us T.I. was immediately reprimanded and sent to a “Special Housing Unit” — which consists of more security and less freedom.

Tiny says she hasn’t spoken to T.I. since the incident — but she’s hopeful she’ll be allowed to visit again soon … as long as she keeps her hand to herself.
