What’s Happening!
Beyonce’s father Matthew Knowles has invested in a line of children’s toys with an urban theme according to the gossip and entertainment blog The Panache Report. Matthew Knowles is the Music World Entertainment founder which manages talent such as Kelly Rowland former member of Destiny’s Child. Papa Knowles has now teamed up with “Planet Toys,” to create a hip-hop inspired toy line, called Baby Jamz . Mr. Knowles was inspired to invest in this venture with Beyonce’s nephew Juelz because he reportedly states “there are no children’s toys that reflect urban society there is a real opportunity for us to make a benchmark here.” The brand will be supported by a hip-hop CD series. All we can say at the SdB eZine is: We guess he has never heard of “BRATZ” or the Homies maybe!?!??!
In an update of a story reported here on Wednesday’s addition on the eZine Soul star Ike Turner insists he has no complaints after police mistakenly arrested him on outstanding drug charges due to a computer glitch earlier this week. TMZ.com spoke with the 75-year-old who was pulled over by Los Angeles cops in a traffic stop on Tuesday night. When asked if he’s angry with officials, Turner told website TMZ.com, “Not at all. They could have been right. We all make mistakes.” Turner was taken into custody when officers discovered he had an outstanding no-bail felony drugs warrant dating back to 1989. Turner had spent the night in jail, before it came to light that the drug warrant was actually recalled in 1989.
