The Brooklyn Nets officially signed Jason Collins' today for a short 10-day contract, making him the first openly gay player in the league.
Reactions have varied from pride to skepticism over the move. With Collins' low PPG and RPG being called into question, many wonder if this is just a publicity stunt
Peep the reactions above. How do you feel? Genuine move or marketing ploy? Leave your thoughts below.
Rap diva Nicki Minaj shows off her Spanglish skills on Romeo Santos’ new song ‘Animales.’ As the title suggests, the song is very primal and features the cunning rhymes of the Queen Barbz.
You may have remember back in January when Minaj revealed her verse on the song to her followers on Instagram. Well, it here in all of its glory. The Young Money starlet teases about her animal instincts when it comes to love.
“It’s me tho, the CEO / Diamond bezel, yo necesito / Dominica, Puerto Rico / Fly me out where it’s warm, not frio / And you can hit it like José Canseco / I’ma give you this heat calienté / But I’m going to need a big suite residenté,” she raps.
Minaj is the second Young Money artist to partner with Santos. Fellow labelemate Drake teamed up with Santos on the melodic ballad ‘Odio.’
Both songs can be heard on Romeo Santos’ new album ‘Formula, Vol. 2,’ which is due out on Tuesday (Feb. 25).
Listen to Nicki Minaj rap in Spanish below. It’s muy caliente!

According to CBS Sports, Jason Collins has signed a 10-day contract with the Brooklyn Nets, making him the first openly gay athlete in one of the four main professional American sports leagues. Collins, who last played for the Boston Celtics and the Washington Wizards will be donning the #98 Brooklyn Nets jersey tonight, as he and the team face the Los Angeles Lakers at Staples Center.
The 7 foot center hasn't hit the court since last April with the Washington Wizards, before he revealed his sexuality to Sports Illustrated soon after.
Many are wondering if this is a marketing ploy, as Collins has only averaged 3.6 ppg and 3.8 rpg throughout his 14-year career in the NBA. Brooklyn Nets General Manager Billy King denies this claim:
"The decision to sign Jason was a basketball decision. We needed to increase our depth inside, and with his experience and size, we felt he was the right choice for a 10-day contract."
That is another aspect of this deal that's raising eyebrows. Why only a 10-day contract? When Collins' deal expires next week, the Nets can offer him another 10-day contract before they have to decide whether to keep him for the season or let him go. He is expected to make his premier at Brooklyn's Barclays Center March 3rd against the Chicago Bulls.

According to Michigan Live, Amir Khan tweeted his opinion on why he wasn't picked to fight the boxing champ. He believes that Maywether is running scared and wanted an easier fight.
"Can I apologies to the thousands of people who are let down. You me and everyone wanted the Mayweather fight. He's running scared." he tweeted yesterday.
Floyd's coach and father Floyd Mayweather Sr., says that Maidana is in fact the easier choice.
"Sometimes, you hear people say words like that, you can look at a person as looking over a person," Mayweather Sr. told reporters. "You can't look over nobody in this game, man. If you don't train good now, this guy might train to his best. He wants to win. He'll give it his all."
Mayweather's camp says that the Mayweather-Maidana deal isn't confirmed yet and doesn't know why Khan tweeted his statement.
The fight is scheduled for May 3.

Lil Wayne's track-list for the Carter V was revealed on the web yesterday and fans reactions are mixed.
Rap-Up leaked the alleged list which has many features from Future, The Weeknd, Drake, Game, Nas, J.Cole and more. With people doubting the list, some fans put together their own track list for the rapper's album.
Check them out along with reactions to the leaked track listing above.
It looks like Ludacris’ ongoing legal battle with his baby mama is about to get ugly. After telling the judge he is unable to pay child support, he now wants full custody of his newborn daughter.
But in a surprising twist, Luda wants a judge to force the baby’s mother Tamika Fuller to pay child support to him!
The Atlanta rapper states in legal documents (via TMZ) that he’s a “fit and capable parent” and should get full physical custody of 2-month-old baby Cai. He cites that he’s always been an “active father” having raised his other 15-year-old daughter Karma from a previous relationship.
It’s unclear if the Grammy-winning artist is going to ask the judge to have Fuller pay him the $15,000 that she’s been requesting Luda to pay or not. If he is successful, it will definitely change the way in which women deal with high-profile celebrities.
Hopefully, Ludacris is being sincere and is not trying to punish his baby mama for digging deep into his pockets.
Ludacris is currently in a relationship with his girlfriend Eudoxie Agnan.
Facebook user Nala Morrison posted an alarming video online over the weekend after her relationship with her boyfriend went astray.
After moving from New Jersey to Missouri to live with her father, the straight A student says that her relationship with her boyfriend Marquis began to dwindle.
Nala also explains her abusive past, and why she wanted to kill herself for the lack love she receives from her family. On top of her relationship issues, she says being dark skinned has damaged her self esteem. Towards the end of the video, she takes six bottles of her father's pills.
With Nala announcing her boyfriend's number in the video, he found out about the attempt and her father managed to save her in the nick of time.
Her boyfriend Marquis took to his page to announce that Nala survived the suicide attempt and is currently in the hospital. He says that they are still together and he 'loves her very much.'
Justin Bieber isn't a fan of random drug tests.
TMZ is reporting that the singer will reject a plea deal given this week that requires him to do random drug tests, an alcohol ed class, and community service.
Bieber's team believes that the deal is harsh. They also claim that the police lied about Jusitn's alcohol levels.
According to reports, he blew .014, which is below the .08 drinking limit, and he wasn't drag racing since he was driving about 27 mph when he was pulled over. Sources are also claiming that Bieber thinks that the drug testing and alcohol classes are a little too much.
Do you think he's right?

Carhartt is known for their premium outerwear for construction workers and outdoorsmen, but the company has an offshoot label that boasts fashionable clothes for both men and women. The Carhartt Work In Progress apparel company features stylish clothes made with the same durable material as their original heritage brand.
Carhartt WIP just released their Spring/Summer 2014 collection of mostly button-ups, T-shirts and short-sleeved polo shirts.
The highlight of the collection for us is the button-down Cotton Oxford shirt which comes in navy and white. On the back shoulder of the shirt is a cool camo print. Pair this shirt with some worn-out jeans and Timberland boots and you will look stylish and rugged at the same damn time.
We also like the long-sleeved Oxford Rib shirt, which looks like cross between a collared shirt and varsity jacket. There’s also a selection of polo shirts, T-shirts and a raglan shirt that are perfect for the summertime.

As one half of one of Hip-Hop's greatest duos, Pusha T has dropped gem after gem for over a decade, many of which were produced by super producers The Neptunes. With the release of My Name Is My Name, we heard the magic again (S.N.I.T.C.H. produced by The Neptunes was a standout on MNIMN), though not in large numbers.
Pusha promises on his next release, King Push, we'll once more hear the chemistry between himself, Pharrell and Chad Hugo, even more than we did on MNIMN.
Push also revealed in the Fuse interview that Kanye West wasn't too happy with the idea that Pusha began working on MNIMN without him, however Push has done the same thing this time around, arguing that 'Ye is his own artist, and he simply can't wait around for Kanye's schedule to clear.
Peep the interview above, and flip through the pics for shots of them in the studio.
Kanye West's influence may spread wider than people think.
According to Pitchfork, "Smile" singer Lily Allen will name her upcoming album Sheezus, in honor of Kayne's Yeezus album.

It's a confident title choice," she said, "and a little nod to Kanye West."
The singer also tweeted out a message to fans who believed she was dissing the rapper.
"It's an homage, not a piss take. #SHEEZUS" she tweeted.
