What did mom to be, Jamie Lynn Spears do for her 17th Birthday? She went to dinner at a local Ruby Tuesday’s and hit up Wal*Mart in Kentwood! As much as the media tries to hate on Jamie Lynn she is doing a good job of laying low and taking care of herself. Good for her and Happy B-Day from LBS!

In an attempt to get the black vote Sen. John McCain campaigned in places Republicans often don’t go. On Friday, he spoke in Memphis to mark the 40th anniversary of the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. The video shows McCain apologizing for opposing a holiday for King with boos and interruptions from the audience. Do you think McCain did the right thing by saying he is sorry or did he get what he deserved?! Let me know!

Love muffins, I just made it home from my trip to Yale and I had to do another report on Jay Z, 38, and Beyonce’s, 26, wedding rumor. A source close to the couple tells People that they are indeed married! DJ Cassidy “mentioned a week ago that he was really excited for Jay Z and Beyoncé’s wedding party to happen,” says another source.

“I never pictured myself as a bride,” Beyonce told Cosmopolitan in her January 2006 interview, “but after my sister’s wedding, I did start thinking about what kind of wedding I’d want. I don’t think I want a big one.” Close family and friends attended the private event along with Beyonce’s longtime pastor. Love muffins, I am jumping up and down with joy! Music was heard blasting from the white tent on the rooftop of Jay Z’s TriBeca apartment that continued past 4 in the morning. Many speculate that it was a party to help celebrate Jay Z’s new career move, but come on now! I think they indeed tied the knot!

Love muffins, recently, their was a video going around stating that Polow used two preset synths from the Apple’s GarageBand program to help create Usher’s smash hit single “Love In This Club” (so far the video has been pulled from several video hosting sites).

Polow stated from Sohh.com, that if a ten-year-old can make ‘Love in This Club’ and save Usher’s career and make black women want to f*ck him again, after they was done with him for getting married, then sh*t he’s a genius just like me,” Polow said. “I also wrote the hook – that’s not a preset.”.

Even though you clearly hear two of the same instruments from Apple’s GarageBand program that you hear in the song, Polow insisted that he did not use the program to create the track and that “there’s this keyboard I have that a lot of sounds come in.”
