• 'Atlanta Exes' Monyetta Shaw Dragged into Court by Baby Daddy Ne-Yo for DNA Testing

    Things just got messy for "Atlanta Exes" star Monyetta Shaw. If you caught her on the new VH1 reality show, then you already know Shaw is Ne-Yo's — aka Shaffer Smith — former fiance and the mother of his two small children. At least, that is what she says, but apparently the R&B star has decided that, for whatever reason, he is not so sure about his paternity. He filed a lawsuit in Georgia against Shaw Oct. 1, requesting the court determine if he is legally the father of both of Shaw's children. In other words, Smith wants a paternity test done.

  • NFL May Have to Reinstate Ray Rice in November after Final Appeal Hearing

    It looks like Ray Rice could be back in NFL action within just a few short weeks. Rice was suspended indefinitely at the start of the current season by NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell after that now-infamous elevator security tape was released showing Rice knocking out Janay Palmer with one punch. The general public was outraged to learn Rice was originally punished with just a two-game suspension and Goodell had to act quickly to try and save face, so he threw the proverbial book at Rice. A final appeal hearing is scheduled for mid-November, and it could easily swing in Rice's favor.

  • Oscar Pistorius Sentenced to 5 Years in Prison for Valentine's Day Killing of Reeva Steenkamp

    Just two years ago, Oscar Pistorius was best known for being an Olympic track-and-field star most commonly referred to as "the blade runner." Now that same man has been sentenced to five years behind bars for the Valentine's Day 2013 killing of Reeva Steenkamp. Judge Thokozile Masipa is known for delivering harsh sentences, so many were surprised when she tossed out a murder charge in favor of culpable homicide, but from the start of this morning's proceedings in South Africa it was clear Pistorius was going to prison.
