Chicago’s Lupe Fiasco’s latest words may surprise some.

In a recent interview, the rapper sounds off on President Obama and terrorism.

In my fight against terrorism, to me, the biggest terrorist is Obama in the United States of America…For me, I’m trying to fight the terrorism that’s actually causing the other forms of terrorism. The root cause of the terrorism is the stuff that you as a government allow to happen and the foreign policies that we have in place in different countries that inspire people to become terrorists. And it’s easy for us because it’s really just some oil, which we can really get on our own.”

Lupe spoke about not voting in the past presidential election.

I don’t vote. I don’t get involved in the political process because it’s meaningless, to be honest. I’m a real big believer if I’m gonna vouch for someone, then I’m gonna stand behind everything that they do. So politicians aren’t gonna do that because I don’t want you to bomb some village in the middle of nowhere.”

The 2011 Billboard Awards pulled out all the stops last night, including amazing performances from Rihanna, Mary J. Blige, Nicki Minaj, and the honoree of the night, Beyonce’. Rih Rih opened the show with her hit song “S&M” and later brought out Britney Spears to join her on the stage. The duo were in matching black and white outfits as they gave a sexy performance that ended in a cute pillow fight with their dancers. Rih then went on to win Radio Artist of the Year and Female Artist of the Year. Nice!

Rashida Jones, daughter of music legend Quincy Jones and actress Peggy Lipton, gets playful and sexy in the new issue of GQ magazine.

The star of the upcoming film, Our Idiot Brother, gave a little insight into what it is like to have a girl-on-girl kiss with her co-star Zooey Deschanel and how she feels about being the “normal character” in all of her roles.

I feel like I’ve come a long way from my first job, when I had to get mouth-to-mouth resuscitation from Rip Torn. A question I get asked a lot is ‘What is it like to play the straight guy all the time?’ And I’m totally okay with it. I’ll never be the person doing a cartwheel and landing with my skirt over my head. That’s just not who I am.”

The beautiful funny lady also shared her affection for her co-stars on the hit NBC show, Parks and Recreation. Speaking of the cast she said,

Every week someone on that show will tickle me in a new and fun way. Wow, that sounds really bad. Please put that next to a topless picture of me in GQ.”

Gotta love her down-to-earth attitude and sense of humor! You can check out the rest of the interview excerpt here. Her issue of GQ hits stands on May 24th!

Looking good Rashida! *wink*

Seems like going naked for a good cause is all the rage these days.

Recently R&B singer Brandy, Love That Girl’s Tatyana Ali, Cosby Show alum Tempest Bledsoe and others, shed their clothes in a PSA for the Style Network to raise awareness of skin cancer.

The PSA hopes to battle skin cancer by encouraging women to wear sunblock and send the message, “If you leave the house without sunscreen, you might as well be naked.”

Last night, teenyboppers everywhere were heartbroken to find out that Romeo Miller was dismissed off of ABC’s hit show, Dancing With The Stars. The 21-year-old left gracefully and said he hopes he’s inspired kids, hugged the judges, and told partner Chelsie Hightower that they can still dance together. The young entrepreneur also admitted that prior to joining the cast he was terrified of dancing.

On a brighter note, you can catch Romeo on the big screen with his latest movie, Jumping The Broom.

Last week I caught up with my Philly homeboy Musiq Soulchild and we discussed everything from the inspiration behind his latest album, MusiqInTheMagiq; quitting school at 17 to pursue his dream; and life with his girlfriend Kameelah Williams (yes you know her from 702)! It turns out our Musiq is a good partner, a wonderful father and a TRUE lover of REAL musiq.

MusiqInTheMagic is in stores now.
