A 17-year-old from Gary, Indiana faces multiple charges after being arrested in connection with a shooting after a Waka Flocka Flames concert at a local skating rink on March 5th.

Devontius Hutcherson, 17, was arrested and charged with multiple felonies for his role in the shooting last Friday.

He was also hit with murder and attempted murder charges for a separate shooting on January 19th in Miller, Indiana.

In that incident, Hutcherson allegedly shot and killed a 22-year-old and wounded the man’s cousin, after the two men refused to give Hutcherson $5 dollars to attend a rap concert.

Hutcherson then stole money and jewelry from both victims.

Police confiscated a rifle Hutcherson allegedly used in the March 5th shooting after the Waka Flocka Flames concert.

Hutcherson is being held without bail while police investigate the latest shooting and prepare to file more charges related to the incident.


Lil Wayne’s celebrity may have allowed the rapper some preferential treatment during his one-year stay at New York’s Rikers Island. But the multi-platinum platinum MC and Young Money head, who VIBE last exclusively reported has a jail escort with a panic button on his belt to call for backup in case of an attack, won’t be giving any autographs.

According to TMZ, the Correction Officer’s Benevolent Association says a no-autograph policy as been enacted during Weezy’s stay for a gun-possession conviction.

“Lil Wayne is not a celebrity in here,” disclosed a spokesperson.

As last reported by VIBE, every hour, Wayne will have the option to roam the quarters with his escort in tow, or be securely locked in his cell. His cell is 10-by-6 feet and like all sentenced inmates, he is required to wear a dark green work shirt, pants and slip on sneakers.

With good-behavior, Wayne could potentially see a release in eight months.

General Larry Platt, the American Idol contestant who received national attention for his song “Pants On The Ground”, is now facing backlash for his hit anthem.

General Platt recently recorded an official version of his homegrown theme song with the assistance of “This Is Why I'm Hot” rapper Mims.

According to distribution company American King Music, they funded the studio sessions and General Platt owes them money for “expenses related to producing, writing and recording of Mr. Platt's official recording of the single.”

Attorney Leron Rogers of Hewitt & Rogers released a statement on behalf of the distribution company saying,

“My client, American King Music, who funded Mr. Platt's recording session with Mims, would like to compensate Mr. Platt for the sales of the full-length hit song ‘Pants on the Ground' which we made available on iTunes. However, Mr. Platt and his representatives have failed to take care of Mr. Platt's obligations.”

As previously reported this is not the first time General Platt has faced controversy over his song.

“The Green Brothers” cried foul over the success of his song because it was too close to their musically inclined tune “Backpockets On The Floor.”

They have yet to take legal action against the General.



Jessica Simpson has been on the warpath lately to try and explain that beauty comes from within. But we draw the line at her latest statement.

In a radio interview this week, Jess confessed that she doesn’t use proper hygiene when it comes to her pearly white. "I don't brush my teeth," she exclaimed. "No, really!"

So what exactly does Jessica do to fight germs and bad breath? "I just use Listerine -- and sometimes I'll use my sweater,” she said.

And Jessica’s poor habits don’t stop there! She was on a roll, talking about how badly she eats too! She said she’ll eat "anything fried.”

"Growing up in Texas for me, fish was a fish stick. We weren't really the healthiest of people. [My mom] didn't force me to eat healthy," Jess confessed.

It sounds to us like Jessica has taken some truth serum! She’s not afraid to lay everything out on the table so people know the real her! Do you appreciate Jess’ honesty, or was this a little TMI?

R&B singer Monica is in the midst of some serious DRAMA in her household.

Here's what happened. Some hoodrat from Atlanta is going around and

trying to peddle DETAILS of her relationship with Monica's fiance Rodney
"Rocko" Hill.

According to the girl, she and Rocko have been getting it in for the past few months. She claims that she's been going all around

Atlanta with dude (restaurants, the studio, etc) and has been carrying
on a SEXUAL relationship for months. But it gets even worse, the JUMPOFF and

her girlfriends have gotten Monica's phone number and have begun

harassing her. One of this jumpoff friends reached out to
THE INTERNET to explain how they frequently call Monica - often
laughing on the phone and taunting her.

So what’s Monica’s response? We reached out to Monica about all this
drama and tried to get some comment or insight onto how she’s dealing
with all this. Neither Monica or her reps responded to our inquiry.

But The Website did manage to speak with one of Monica's friends
who told us, "Rocko and Monica have a great deal of respect for each
other, but are NO LONGER in a relationship." 

Cal State Fullerton forward Gerard Anderson is one of college basketball's most accomplished dunkers, but he seems to save his most YouTube-worthy efforts for Cal State Northridge.

First came this vicious slam on a hapless Matadors defender back in January. Then in the first round of the Big West tournament on Wednesday night, Anderson delivered another freakish display of athleticism, finishing a fastbreak by leaping over 6-foot Vinnie McGhee and unleashing a fierce one-hand jam.

TV personality Kourtney Kardashian was spotted with her boyfriend Scott Disick carrying a Jimmy Choo Marin Zebra clutch ($1,875), which features brown & white zebra print pony skin. Scott Disick was wearing a pair of YSL Babylone Leopard Moccasins ($570). These driving moccasins feature Leopard-printed calfskin with tassels and a rubber sole. If you keep up with the Kardashians then you would know that Scott does a good job putting together outfits that look effortless, which to me is the #1 rule in style.

Martin Margiela is officially leaving his fashion house, and these Hi-Cut Sneaker mark the last official release from the line that will have him involved. Seen here in two colorways, black or white, the designer kept the line fairly simple.

Sporting a three strap velcro design, the high top sneakers employ premium suede and leather for the uppers. The lace-less design is quite simple and the bulk of the velcro strap definitely give character to what would be an otherwise thin boxer-shoe like silhouette. Sitting on a gum sole, the sneakers also feature Maison Martin Margiela’s signature number logo embossed on a leather patch sewn onto the tongue.
