Ke$ha is a song stealer!
Well this is embarrasing. Some chick who we will never hear from again named Chrissy, just lashed out against Ke$ha and accused her of stealing her song (My Slushy) and making it into Tik Tok.
When I first read this I thought: Tik Tok is a really crappy song, who the hell would steal that from someone else?
So, judge for yourselves:
[See post to watch Flash video]
The songs do sound really REALLY familiar, the lyrics are pretty much the same and they both make my ears bleed. Then again, it doesn’t really take a lot of talent into making such generic songs, it could be a coincidence.

Mississippi school cancels prom because of lesbian date
Mississippi’s Itawamba County School District has decided it would rather cancel an entire high school prom than host one where a lesbian student can wear a tuxedo and bring a female date. The district announced the prom was off after the ACLU pressured it to change its policy and allow Constance McMillen, 18, to bring her girlfriend, a fellow student, to the dance.
McMillen says she believes the decision to cancel the prom is the district’s revenge for her standing up for her rights. “The message they are sending is that if they have to let gay people go to prom than they are not going to have one,” she told the Jackson Clarion-Ledger. “A bunch of kids at school are really going to hate me for this, so it’s really retaliation.”

Israel hates Leo DiCaprio, begs Bar Refaeli to dump him
Rumors that wedding bells may soon be ringing for Leonardo DiCaprio and Israeli model Bar Refaeli have rung alarm bells for ultra-nationalists in her homeland. The head of a group that aims to “rescue” women from marriages to non-Jews has written to Rafaeli, pleading with her to ditch the actor for the sake of “future generations,” the Los Angeles Times reports.
“Your grandmother and her grandmother did not dream that one of their descendants would one day remove the family’s future generations from the Jewish people,” writes Baruch Marzel. “Assimilation has forever been one of the enemies of the Jewish people.” He stressed that it’s nothing personal against DiCaprio, “who I have no doubt is a talented actor.”

New Jersey trees won’t be cold this year thanks to the ‘Midnight Knitter’
The trees in West Cape May, New Jersey, don’t have new leaves yet, but some of them do have knitted coverings that resemble scarves. The cozies appear overnight, and the guerrilla decorator—or decorators—are the talk of the town. “It doesn’t bother me,” says one resident of the beach town at the southern tip of the state. “It’s better than somebody spray painting all over the place.”
“Technically, they shouldn’t be doing it,” the mayor tells the Press of Atlantic City. “The police are asking about it, but it’s fun and it’s a mystery.” Says a local artist: “We love them. We don’t know who they are, but we put in a request for them to reveal themselves at the Strawberry Festival.”

Natalie Mejia arrested for cocaine possession
Natalie Mejia, a member of The Pussycat Dolls sister band Girlicious, was taken into police custody in suburban Los Angeles this week after cops found cocaine in her designer handbag, The Los Angeles Times reports.
Mejia — a passenger in a car driven by 28-year-old Peter Asencio — was on her way to the airport to fly to Canada for a concert when the car was pulled over for speeding Tuesday evening near the Ventura Freeway.
Cops discovered the pal Natalie was traveling with had a suspended driving license and decided to search the pair. That’s when officers discovered several baggies of coke in Natalie’s Coach bag.
Police Sgt. Tom Lorenz says 21-year-old Mejia and her companion were collared for suspicion of cocaine for sale or distribution” “She doesn’t know how it (cocaine) got into her purse.” The singer posted $30,000 bail on Wednesday and was ordered to appear in court on April 15.
Mejia shot to fame when she competed on The CW reality series Pussycat Dolls Present: Girlicious in 2007. Girlicious’ first album was released in 2008 after Robin Antin of the Pussycat Dolls founded the group.

This week on the PGA Tour: WGC-CA Championship
The PGA Tour returns to one of the most famed courses in America this week for the invite-only World Golf Championships-CA Championship at Doral’s Blue Monster.
Many believed that Tiger Woods might return to competitive golf at this event because he loves Doral and always plays well at the Miami-area course, but Woods isn’t back on Tour yet. But the field is otherwise as strong as it possibly could be, with the other nine of the Top 10 players in the world on hand (48 of the top 50) as well as the Top 10 in both FedEx Cup points and the PGA Tour money list. Nine of the 10 tournament winners from this year also are in the field.
`It’s just below the majors for us,” PGA golfer Paul Casey said of the CA Championship. “It’s the next step down. It’s there the world’s best turn up — limited fields, no cut, shootout for 72 holes. If you win any World Championship event, you’ve beaten the world’s best. Certainly, around the Blue Monster gives it something extra.”
Tiger has won 16 career WGC events — the next-closest is Geoff Ogilvy with three. Six of those Woods wins have come at the CA in 10 career starts, and Tiger has yet to finish outside the top 10 in the event. So that opens up the door for everyone else.
Phil Mickelson is the WagerWeb.com favorite at +400, and he is the defending champion here. Last March, Mickelson, taken to a hospital on the eve of the final round with heat exhaustion and dehydration, survived seven lead changes in 11 holes against Nick Watney before hanging on with seven pars for a 3-under 69 and a one-shot victory. Lefty finished at 19-under 269 and earned $1.4 million, then the biggest check of his career. That snapped an 0-for-26 drought in WGC events. In 10 career pro PGA Tour starts at Doral, Mickelson has finished in the top-10 just twice: his win last year and second to Tiger in 2005.
However, Lefty’s title defense will come this week without benefit of a practice round because he won’t arrive at Doral until Wednesday night. Of course Mickelson skipped the year’s first World Golf Championships event, opting to take his family on a spring-break vacation instead of teeing it up in the WGC Match Play.
Camilo Villegas is the No. 3 favorite on WagerWeb.com at +900 to win on the heels of his five-shot victory just up the Florida coast in the Honda Classic last week. World No. 2 Steve Stricker is the second favorite this week on WagerWeb.com at +800. He finished tied for 13th last year at Doral and six of his last seven rounds there have been below par.
Jim Furyk (+1000) also bears watching this week. In 13 starts at the Blue Monster, he’s had six top-10 finishes, including a victory in 2000. He also finished second in both 2003 and ‘08.
Joining Mickelson as former winners of this tournament in the field this week are Ogilvy (2008), Ernie Els (2004) and Mike Weir (2000).

Marion Jones to play for Tulsa in WNBA
It’s not too often you will find WNBA copy here on WagerWeb.com, but one of the former biggest names in women’s sports is headed to the league: disgraced Olympian Marion Jones.
The WNBA’s Tulsa Shock have signed the 34-year-old ex-track star after she worked out for head coach Nolan Richardson (yes, the former Razorbacks coach) on Saturday.
“We’re thrilled to have her,” Richardson said., “In the workouts last week I saw how hard she works. She has things you can’t teach, like speed and great hand and eye coordination. She looks chiseled. Her age [34] might be saying one thing but everything about her is saying she’s young.”
Jones, who was stripped of five medals from the 2000 Sydney Olympics after she admitted to using steroids, will play in the WNBA as a rookie free agent. She was released in September 2008 from a Texas federal prison after completing most of her six-month sentence for lying about doping and her role in a check-fraud scam. Jones also gave berth just eight months ago to her third child.
Jones was a starting point guard on the 1994 North Carolina NCAA national championship team and drafted by the Phoenix Mercury in 2003 but never played in the WNBA. She hasn’t played organized basketball since leaving UNC in 1997. She will make roughly $35,000 in her first season in the WNBA.
The Shock initially played in Detroit beginning in 1998 and won WNBA titles in 2003, 2006 and 2008. The team moved to Tulsa in November 2009.
Is this a publicity stunt for the WNBA and the Shock? Of course it is, but that league needs all the publicity it can get, and the Shock need to sell tickets. The Shock begin the 2010 season May 15th at home against the Minnesota Lynx.

Browns’ Anderson rips Browns fans after being cut
You knew Derek Anderson’s time was going to be up in Cleveland after the team acquired QB Seneca Wallace from Seattle a few days ago, and indeed the Browns did cut Anderson on Tuesday, most likely clearing the way for Brady Quinn to be the starting QB in 2010 with Wallace as his backup – although there certainly will be an open competition for the job, and new Browns president Mike Holmgren loves Wallace from his time in Seattle.
In dumping Anderson, the Browns avoided paying Anderson a $2 million roster bonus and a $7.45 million salary in 2010. But Anderson did anything but leave Cleveland quietly.
“The fans are ruthless and don’t deserve a winner,” Anderson said. “I will never forget getting cheered when I was injured. I know at times I wasn’t great. I hope and pray I’m playing when my team comes to town and [we] roll them.”
In a statement released Wednesday, Anderson said those words came out of frustration. At least he didn’t say he was misquoted.
“I said some things to [News-Herald reporter] Jeff Schudel earlier that I regret,” Anderson said. “Those of you who got to know me personally from covering the Browns over the past five years, know this was out of character for me. I wasn’t taken out of context, but I was speaking out of frustration after my career with the Browns came to a close.”
Ironically, Anderson now may visit Seattle, which obviously needs a QB after dealing Wallace. The Arizona Cardinals also could look at Anderson to backup Matt Leinart. Of course Anderson had a breakout 2007 season with 29 TD passes in leading the Browns to 10 wins. That earned him a big contract, but he has just a 48.0 percent completion percentage the past two seasons. His overall record as a Browns starter was 16-18.

Spartans may not have Chris Allen for Big Ten Tournament
The Big Ten co-regular season champion Michigan State Spartans are the third seed in the Big Ten Tournament, but MSU won’t have a starter for its tourney opener and possibly beyond.
That would be guard Chris Allen, who was suspended by Coach Tom Izzo indefinitely from the team. Izzo gave few details about Allen’s suspension, but confirmed he won’t play Friday in MSU’s first game of the Big Ten tournament. MSU, the No. 3 seed, plays against the winner of Thursday’s Minnesota-Penn State game in Indianapolis.
“Somebody has got to grow up,” Izzo said of Allen, who has started the last 21 games. “It’s taken a little longer for some guys to grow up.”
Izzo ordered Allen to not practice Tuesday and said he wasn’t sure if Allen will travel with the team to Indianapolis for the tournament. If Izzo decides he can play Saturday and beyond if the Spartans win, Allen will come down separately on Friday. The team is scheduled to leave Thursday. Izzo said Allen has had some classroom issues, though his eligibility is not a concern. This is mostly “a basketball issue,” Izzo said.
In the regular-season finale win over Michigan, Allen went scoreless in 24 minutes and didn’t attempt a shot. It was the first time in 101 college games that Allen did not shoot (Izzo said it had nothing to do with that). The junior leads the Spartans in 3-pointers (51) and 3-point percentage (40.8). Allen has started 26 of 31 games and is averaging a career-best 9.1 points, 3.2 rebounds and 2.1 assists. He is the fourth MSU guard to be punished in some way by Izzo this season. It’s not clear who would start in Allen’s place.
Despite all of Michigan State’s NCAA Tournament success, the Spartans haven’t won the Big Ten Tournament in 10 years. They are favored at +150 on WagerWeb.com to do so this season even though Ohio State and Purdue are higher seeds (based on tiebreakers, as all three tied for the Big Ten regular-season title).

Wednesday NBA: Nets (7-56) at Mavericks (44-21)
Well, Wednesday night’s New Jersey-Dallas game certainly looks like one of the major mismatches of the season, with the Nets still having a shot at the fewest wins in a season in NBA history — not to mention 4-28 on the road – and Dallas currently on a 12-game winning streak.
Ah, but this might be one of those typical trap games for Dallas and a good spot to take the Nets and the points – New Jersey is getting 11 on WagerWeb.com’s NBA odds.
Dallas can do nothing wrong at the moment and can tie the Cavs for the longest winning streak in the NBA this season at 13. Of course the Nets and Mavs are bound by the Jason Kidd for Devin Harris trade a few years ago. And that trade certainly looked lopsided for the Nets for a while. Harris was an All-Star last season and in the four games against the Mavericks since he became a Net just over two years ago, Harris has outscored Jason Kidd by nearly seven points. He also managed to embarrass Kidd on Dec. 19, 2008, when he scored 41 points in a 121-97 Nets win.
Kidd is having a career resurgence this season, leading Harris in every major category but points. Kidd currently ranks fifth in the NBA in assists with 9.4 a game and leads all full-time guards in rebounding with 5.5 per game. Kidd had had 17 points in Dallas’ 117-101 win at the Meadowlands on Dec. 2. That loss was the Nets’ record-setting 18th straight to start the season.
Harris is playing much better of late. In the past 16 games, he’s he’s averaged 20.6 points and has averaged 29.5 points in his last two games.
The Nets are led in scoring by Brook Lopez, who has become one of the best young centers in the league. He has started all 63 games this season, averaging 19 points, nine rebounds and nearly 1.9 blocks.
The Mavs’ Caron Butler is averaging 19 points in the past six games and shooting better than 50 percent. Dallas has scored 108 points or more in four consecutive games. The Mavs have won nine consecutive home games against the Nets.
Dallas point guard J.J. Barea, who has seen increased minutes in the Dallas backcourt with Jason Terry out, is doubtful for tonight’s game. Center Brendan Haywood also is unlikely to play.
