Oh the ramifications of cheating...upsetting and embarrassing your family, being publically known as a cheater, a-hole, liar...the list goes on...and of course divorce.

Turns out, one of the reasons behind Houstonian Beyonce's parents' split WAS because he knocked up his mistress!!

Real classy.

(So his daughter is singing about putting a ring on it and he can't put a condom on it....hhmm)

Mathew Knowles has been confirmed as the soon-to-be baby daddy of Alexsandra Wright's child, the woman who filed a paternity lawsuit against the singer's dad back in October.

Beyonce's mom, Tina Knowles reportedly knew about the forth coming child for "a couple of months" and doesn't even want DNA proof because Mathew already confessed to the affair.

Sources say Tina "particularly bitter" about it because the whole debacle is "so humiliating for her."

Poor Tina!

DISH has been saying since day one that Mathew Knowles is a horrid human...now there is public proof!

Beyonce was singing all of those songs about cheating at the Grammy's and the whispers were that Jay-Z was cheating on her....looks like those pointed words were directed toward dear old dad!

Michael Jackson's Houston Doctor gets Warning

DISH is on pins and needles...sorry...bad joke....waiting to see how all of this plays out. Last night the news was the Houstonian, Dr. Conrad Murray was turning himself in today in connection with Michael Jackson's death. Today, there are simply whispers that he is planning to cooporate?? We are dizzy over here!!

Dr. Conrad Murray, who is currently being investigated for providing Michael Jackson with the drugs that caused his death, is now in Los Angeles and plans to cooperate with the D.A.'s office and LAPD as they charge him this week with Involuntary Manslaughter.

Here's to hoping there is an answer soon and if he should go to jail that he DOES go to jail.

P.S. Does anyone else find it suspect that he all of the sudden started paying child support for all of his children...even the one he claimed wasn't his when all of this started to close in on him?? He's on the John Edwards spin plan!

Valentinen's Gift from the "Art"

What would be a more wonderful way to say "I love you" than a thoughtful hand-cut silhouette by scissorgraphist, Cindi Rose! Silhouette is a treasured art seldom seen and mastered.  Silhouettes, also called paper-profiles,  will be cut on Friday, Feb. 12, at Tanglewood Gifts located at Chimney Rock and Woodway, at 5750 Woodway, from 11 to 1, and 2 to 5.  Rose, who is considered the "foremost living silhouette artist" uses natural talents and surgical scissors to capture a likeness, without a sketch or shadow. This insures that the work will have fine-details and embellishments such as stylish hair-dos, ribbons, neck-ties, pipes, head-bands, and necklaces.

There are only around 25 authentic practicing silhouette artists (also called papyrotomists) in the world. A silhouette gift lasts forever, and will show that your love will last forever.  Silhouettes are $40 a person, with extra copies at $10 a person.  This way you can think of spouse's, parents, siblings, and  other loved ones. Children do not have to sit still or be dressed for the occasion. Master silhouette artist, Cindi Harwood Rose, can make them look "clean" in the picture.  To make things more loveable, this will benefit The Rose Ribbon Foundation, to help the uninsured with critical illness.

  For more information contact (713) 385-0736, or Tanglewood Gifts at (713) 266-1006.  No appointments are needed, but are reccommended. Silhouettes can be done of pets from profile pictures.

Houstonian Cesar Galindo Rocks New York Fashion Week

CESAR GALINDO will be showing his FALL 2010 collection, Tuesday, February 16th at 9PM in affiliation with Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week at THE BOX at 189 Chrystie Street, between Stanton & Rivington.  Sponsors: REDKEN 5^th Avenue NYC. 

For FALL 2010 Galindo rocks it! His muse and inspiration- the one and only die-hard, sexy, stylish, icon rocker- MS. JOAN JETT.  Galindo is her officially commissioned designer regarding her appearances at the SUNDANCE FILM FESTIVAL. 

Galindo states, “this is an honor for me, I remember dancing to Jett’s music in my high school cafeteria and rocking out!  Today that rock n’ roll spirit is alive and well as I hone in on her aura and iconic rebel message, which is reflected, in my designs. For me, Joan Jett has always been true to herself; she is the ultimate, radical and uncompromising female rocker.  Her style, persona, music and lyrics emanate from the core- very grassroots.  It is the same message I have always applied as a fashion designer- to stay true to yourself, allow to be stimulated and apply the fire inside you.”

Galindo’s runway looks will be a juxtaposition of head-turning fashion with style, color and details. A ROCK and ROLL fantasy, rebel nights, classic Goth- THEATER!  He will deliver double-faced sequin gowns, party tanks, CATSUITS his drive and statement of this fashion season. Some in solids, with textures, sequined and animal prints. Corseted jackets with knit details, tailored sequined pants, circle coats and multiple cover-ups in varying fabrics.  Textures with matte and shine, colors- red, silver, gold, purple, turquoise, and his signature vibrant and classic Fuchsia.

Galindo is a big supporter of Houston, Texas- his hometown, its creative communities and designers. For this season he pairs up with Angelica Ximenes Chapman designs, her jewelry will reflect color, clarity, precision, bold and simple designs from rings, to earrings, to chokers, pendants and necklaces.

For FALL 2010 it’s only ROCK n’ ROLL!  For Cesar will captivate us and turn out a show at a venue whose unsuspecting door in a sketchy Lower East Side alleyway will take you back to the 1930’s with the realness of 2010.  If you have never been to a Galindo show then do and get there early if you have an INVITE and as always expect a packed house, good people and a night charged with ROCK-HARD surprises!
