STARS ON STEROIDS...NOT MARY J. BLIGE...WTF??
An investigation of HGH and steroid trafficking in Albany, NY included the names of some of our favorite stars. Tyler Perry, Wyclef Jean, Timbaland, 50 Cent and even Mary J. Blige were some of the names mentioned in the report. Although, HGH is not illegal, steroids is. How did Dr. Dre not make the list?
PATCHOGUE — The names of R&B music star Mary J. Blige, along with rap artists 50 Cent, Timbaland and Wyclef Jean, and award-winning author and producer Tyler Perry, have emerged in an Albany-based investigation of steroids trafficking that has already rocked the professional sports world, according to confidential sources.
Information has surfaced recently showing those stars are among tens of thousands of people who may have used or received prescribed shipments of steroids and injectable human growth hormone in recent years. Law enforcement officials have said they have no evidence in their sprawling multistate probe that customers, including Blige or other entertainers, violated any laws. Instead, they are targeting anti-aging clinics, doctors and pharmacists who prescribed the drugs.
Still, medical experts say that use of steroids and human growth hormone — an estimated $10 billion-a-year operation worldwide — reaching into the entertainment industry illustrates how pervasive steroids use in the United States has become. It is not unique to athletics, where performance-enhancing drug use has marred many sports. For many celebrities, the lure of hormonal drugs is their supposed, unproven anti-aging effects.
While Congress is preparing to focus on baseball players alleged to have taken the drugs, medical experts are warning that steroids and human growth hormone are being illegally prescribed nationwide at an alarming rate under the misconception they will aid healing, enhance looks, strength and speed, or slow aging.
Records shared with the Times Union and information from several cooperating witnesses on Long Island indicate Blige and other stars were shipped prescribed human growth hormone or steroids — sometimes under fictitious names — at hotels, production studios, private residences, an upscale Manhattan fitness club and through the Long Island office of Michael Diamond, a chiropractor affiliated with the celebrities, sources said.
Diamond, who has not been identified as a target in the case or accused of breaking any laws, helps run an anti-aging program at Clay Gym in Manhattan, according to the company’s Web site.
The Albany investigation became a nationwide spectacle last February when authorities raided a Palm Beach County wellness center and the offices of Signature Compounding Pharmacy in downtown Orlando. The wellness center’s owners and the pharmacy’s operators are awaiting trial in Albany on charges related to the sale of millions of dollars worth of prescription drugs, mostly steroids, through a suspected criminal enterprise involving allegedly corrupt physicians and a series of anti-aging “clinics” that advertised predominantly through the Internet.
In the past year the case has netted 10 guilty pleas, including felony convictions of three physicians and several operators of anti-aging clinics in Texas, Florida and New York.
Along the way it has exposed allegations of steroid use by Major League Baseball players, pro wrestlers, NFL figures, police officers, prison guards, top-ranked body builders, people with ties to high school and college wrestling programs, and now, celebrities.

MUSIC NEWS: NEYO SUES R-KELLY, MYA WANTS TO LEAVE MOTOWN, NO MARIAH CD JUST YET (damn)
Mariah's album has been pushed back to the 2nd quarter of 2008. According to Billboard via Mariah Daily, she could possibly face stiff competition from Usher, and Ashanti (who isn't really a threat *lol*).I guess this spells bad news because it means we won't be hearing the single for MONTHS. I knew Def Jam weren't going to allow Janet and Mariah to be pitted against each other because it would mean the record label losing a profit. I guess they want to make as much profit as they can from both artist. Right now, it seems they're putting all their concentration into Janet's project, testing the waters just to see what measures need to be taken when it's time for Mariah to put herself out there.
Mya did an interview with Stars News Online and she actually confessed that she will be leaving Universal Motown this year. I think that she should have done this a long time ago. I understand the policies of contractual agreements making it harder to leave but Motown has a history of doing a wackjob with their artists. It's probably the worst label you could sign to alongside Virgin. I think she should go independent like what my favourite singer Tamia has done. I'm sure she'd get better luck. And she should scrap Liberation altogether as well and record a brand new album.
Mary J. Blige latest new album 'Growing Pains' has nabbed the #1 spot on Billboard having sold 204,000 copies this week. She actually debuted at no 2. But this is good news for Mary, although I didn't think Growing Pains was all that, it sure was a lot better than some of the crap that had been unleashed to us that year. For Mary though, I was expecting her album to fair bigger. The hype surrounding this album was nowhere near as monumental as The Breakthrough. I have no doubt that by next week, she'll be platinum. A million copies sold in 3 weeks. Not bad.
Chris Brown is being sued by his concert tour designer because the 'Kiss Kiss' singer didn't pay him. John Troxtel
was supposed to be paid for designing the singer's concert tour set and an agreed negotiation was reached between all the parties involved. But when it was time for him to pick up that cheque, the touring company went straight incognito on that ass and flat out refused. What is it with R&B singers, concerts and lawsuits these days? Anyway, go check out TMZ for the full scoop.
The so-called dragon is set to unleash its fires when Sisqo makes a steady return to the limelight once again. Sisqo hasn't had a hit 
record since 2001's Thong Song. Probably one of the most annoying ass records in R&B history. But the singer says he didn't take a break from music but that he was unable to release any music contractually for 2 years, after the last Dru Hill album. Yesterday, he wrote a message on his Myspace: "Hope everyone enjoyed their New Years. Touring in Germany was great, but it's time for the US to feel me! Be on the look out for "Gone Country" premiering this month on CMT". Gone HELLBOUND I say and unleash those fires all over yourself because I don't really want to hear it, not with that wackjob of a supposed comeback video (Daddy) and that appalling last album of yours.
Ne-yo is suing R. Kelly and the promoter Rowe Entertainment for having him kicked off R. Kelly's Double Up Tour. It is believed R. Kelly encouraged the promoter to have Ne-yo dismissed because the audience and critics reacted more favourably to Ne-yo's performances. I see it as a case of bruised ego's in which R. Kelly decided that another act upstaging the headliner just wasn't acceptable. Ne-yo now wants the full amount negotiated which was $785,000 for doing 25 gigs with singers Keyshia Cole and J. Holiday.Best of Both Worlds tour-mate Jay-Z and concert promoter Atlanta Worldwide with a breach of contract lawsuit. R. Kelly actually accused Jay-Z of sabotaging the tour because he was jealous that the audience was reacting more favourable to HIS ass. And now look! EXACT same situation repeating itself all over again Although Ne-yo didn't complete these gigs he still wants the remaining $735,000. See how things always come back to bite you in the ass R. Kelly? You sued your fellow .
