It\'s All About Mya and Sisqo

I hated this song and have always harbored a small grudge against Mya for being responsible for the fact that this song haunted the radio for months and months in 1998, plus solo Sisqo annoyed the hell out of me. And yet, I'm posting it. Someone must have liked it, right? It did launch her career.

• Mya surely regrets ever getting herself involved with those G-Unit brats. [NB]

• Floyd Mayweather wants to quit boxing, which is new that interests boxing fans, I guess. He also wants to beat up Reggie Bush for "taking" Kim Kardashian. He also needs to get a life. [SR]

• When you release a really bad album that doesn't do well, try to just blame it on jail and your label. That's the route Foxy Brown is taking, anyway. [Bossip]

• Suge Knight's nemesis is really flirting with death, isn't he? [RWS]

• It's dangerous to be O.J. Simpson's significant other. But we knew that. [D-Listed]

CELEB SECRETS Mya unveiled her talent for tapping on last night's premiere episode of the ridiculous Secret Talents of the Stars, but is this talent such a big secret if she has already showed it off in one of her videos? Anything to get on a reality show. [CL]

Update: The show was canceled after just one episode. That's all we need to know.

Au Revoir, 2007!

In lieu of a traditional Parting Shots — let's face it, it was hard enough coming up with enough stuff for today's other posts — I thought I'd do a little rundown of celebrity-hosted New Year's Eve bashes. You know, the kind where you spend $200 to occupy the same general space as a celebrity, who may or may not exit his or her heavily-guarded VIP area to say Happy New Year to the plebes on the DJ's mic? Whether you all are choosing to ring in the New Year with a quiet evening at home, an intimate house party, or an expensive club bash, I hope you all have a wonderful (safe) night. See you in '08

Mariah Carey looks amazing when she is fully clothed in an outfit that fits her and not making mysterious appearances at ceremonies for jury duty commemorative stamps. She was honored at last night's VH1 Save The Music 10th Anniversary Gala and chose her look accordingly. After hearing Mariah was going to do the full-coverage thing, Mya might have felt like she needed to bring some skin to the classy affair. Check out the possible Broadway star and other attendees, including one saxaphone-playing former president, below.

Mya, who seems to be having some serious trouble sustaining any sort of success in her recording career despite appearing in public whenever humanly possible, may be moving on to something new. Broadway! I've always been impressed with her dance skills, which are shown off in this number (my favorite) from the film version of Chicago (one of my favorites).

According to the New York Daily News, Mya was spotted having an intimate conversation with the Chicago casting director responsible for bringing Usher to Broadway. If it counts for anything, I'd be far more likely to go see her on stage than in concert.

Last night, stars came out in droves for the Fashion Rocks concert. Most of them looked adorable (see Mary J. Blige in her cute Bonnie & Clyde look) and others need to start looking for new fashion and/or hair stylists. You'll know who I'm talking about.

  • According to Ne-yo, when Karrine Steffans tells everyone she went down on you, that's when you know you're a star. [MTV]
  • D. Woods smartens up and leaves Danity Kane for greener pastures. [H&P]
  • KRS-One's 23-year-old son killed himself. Tragic and shocking. Also shocking: KRS has a 23-year-old son. [Vibe]
  • For those of you dying from anticipation, Mya assures you that her album will drop in 2007. Feel better? [SOHH]
  • J-Hud, darling, it's officially time to find a new style guru. [Bossip]

  • It's time for Dennis Rodman to remove himself from the public eye and never come back. What a waste of an athlete. [TMZ]
  • Why are Rihanna and Kelly Rowland more interested in Paul Walker and Orlando Bloom than sexy black men? Halle Berry might have the answer. [Bossip]
  • Am I late in seeing this "sparkling wiggles" video? It doesn't matter. I'm appalled, anyway. Poor child's got nowhere to go but down. [Racialicious]
  • Just because Mike Tyson wants Bollywood, it doesn't meant Bollywood is ready for Mike Tyson. [MC]

    Bad Boy For Life

  • At Bad Boy's upfronts last night, Diddy showed off his artists that he rarely ever promotes and bragged about some upcoming Yung Joc material. One question — where's Danity Kane? [MTV]
  • Rihanna's one R&B diva that will not be lured into a relationship with a crack head (*cough, Whitney Houston). She knows what the foil in the ashtray means. [ASL]
  • Trojan's stock is officially lowered now that counterfeit versions of their condoms are sweeping NYC and they've made a deal with the devil, aka Ray J. [Starpulse]
  • Karma comes to Eminem after Michael Jackson, a frequent target of his, scoops up a portion of his song catalogue. [Yahoo]
  • This is the state that Mya's career is in: she just signed on to judge people singing in the shower on a new MTV show. [E!]

    Wonders never cease! Serena Williams made her second good fashion choice of the decade at the Louis Vuitton Party of LOVE in New York City last night. And if she's ever in danger of a relapse, The Fashion Bomb has some tips to help halt her downward spiral. I think our Serena's gonna be okay!

    Take a look at some other great (and questionable) fashion statements from last night's parties after the jump.
