Rapper Trina is not too happy these days, after personal photos of hers were released via the internets earlier this week.  On Monday, Trina spoke with MTV about the situation, stating that her cell phone was stolen during Bet Hip-Hop Awards in October.

Photos that have been released so far show Trina in the nude, crying, and oddly showing off her arms with what appears to be rashes. Apparently her doctor diagnosed her with Urticaria, which essentially is hives and has since gone away.

Trina told MTV:

“[The images are] me on a very upset day — I think I was in Canada, upset crying,” she explained. “Just personal stuff. Photos in the studio. I think [one] was me having an allergic reaction, breaking out. I just think it was my personal stuff and for someone to do that is so, so wrong. So now I’m actually having it looked into by the FBI and it’s gonna be a bigger situation than just leaked photos. Hopefully we can deal with the situation and put an end to it.”

Damn…..well at least she has the FBI workin on her case now. She might wanna get all this cleared up before her new cd Amazin comes out later this year.

Kanye playing basketball

Fresh off of announcing that his tour with Lady Gaga, Fame Kills, would not be taking place, Kanye Westwas spotted playing basketball in L.A. over the weekend.

Maybe playing b-ball will get some of his aggression out.

              

Check out this new video from behind the scenes at the 2009 MTV VMAs earlier in September.

The video shows Beyonce attempting to stop Lil’ Mama from walking on stage during Jay-Z’s performance with Alicia Keys.

You can see Beyonce grab Lil’ Mama’s hand, but the lil’ girl just kept walking and headed on stage with the two performers.

Still weird huh?

Shyne2

Just on the brink of being released from prison after serving his 8-year sentence, Shyne decided to clear the air about some rumors that Diddy reached out to him a few weeks ago.

Diddy on Shyne being released from jail in October:

“It’s a blessing that [Shyne's] coming home. I spoke to him like a couple of weeks ago and he sounded like he was in good spirits. I know he can’t wait to get home. I know he is definitely going to heat the whole scene up. He was definitely one of talented young artists that I had the pleasure to work with. I’m quite sure he’s been using his time wisely and has some heat.”

Shyne’s side of the story on Diddy:

“I want it known that this supposed conversation is a figment of Sean Combs’ imagination. He never spoke with me, he never visited me nor would I ever accept a phone call or visit from him. The only way I would do either of those things would be if he stepped up and did the right thing for the victims of the incident.”

Huh….interesting how Diddy would release such a statement to the media, knowing that the same people would be looking to hear from Shyne as he is ready to leave prison.

Not sure why Diddy would lie….it definitely sounds like Shyne isn’t planning on visiting his old friend upon release.
