Lil Wayne Makes it RAIN at Da Club

Lil Wayne was not messing around after the Super Bowl.

The rapper and his crew were quite impressed by the local talent at Dallas' Club Onyx and showed their appreciation the best way they know how.

So much cash was thrown at the strippers that the place actually ran out of $1 bills. That's no small feat for a strip joint, but this is Lil Wayne ...

Lil Wayne Makin' it Rain

Even more incredibly, Weezy spent the entire night stone cold sober. That's one of the conditions of his probation, but also just common sense.

At $11 for a Bud Light, ice water starts to sound good. Anyway, it's good to see Weezy enjoying the finer things since his release from jail.

Kate Hudson and Colin Egglesfield’s Steamy Smooch

Puckering up for her new movie, Kate Hudson was busy filming a steamy smooch scene for "Something Borrowed" in the Hamptons, New York on Wednesday (May 19).

Looking to be having quite the enjoyable time, the "Fool's Gold" hottie giggled it up in between takes as she locked lips with co-star Colin Egglesfield as fellow castmate Ginnifer Goodwin watched on.

In related news, Miss Hudson recently spoke with the UK's Telegraph about her body - which she says that she's perfectly fine with despite recently getting a small breast augmentation procedure.

Kate tells, "I'm pretty comfortable with my body. I'm imperfect. The imperfections are there. People are going to see them, but I take the view you only live once."

Video: Obama Gives Tough Speech at NAACP Anniversary Celebration

Stirring. Honest.Controversial.Bold. But what do you think of the speech? Do you agree with President Obama's view on responsibility? Do you think his words were too harsh?
President Obama had a tough- message for fellow African-Americans on Thursday, urging black to push their children to think beyond dreams of being stars or rap music performers. Obama's election as the first African-American president buoyed the black community. At the 100th anniversary celebration of the NAACP, the country's oldest civil rights group, he urged blacks to take greater responsibility for themselves and move away from reliance on government programs.

"We need a new mindset, a new set of attitudes -- because one of the most durable and destructive legacies of discrimination is the way that we have internalized a sense of limitation; how so many in our community have come to expect so little of ourselves," he said.
Obama told a packed ballroom at a Manhattan hotel that blacks need to recapture the spirit of the civil rights movement of a half century ago to tackle problems that have struck African-Americans disproportionately - joblessness, spiraling healthcare costs and HIV-AIDS.
"What is required to overcome today's barriers is the same as was needed then...the same commitment. The same sense of urgency. The same sense of sacrifice," he said.
Obama said need to force their children to set aside the video games and get to bed at a reasonable hour, and push them to set their sights beyond such iconic figures as NBA star LeBron James and rap performer Lil Wayne.

I want them aspiring to be scientists and engineers, doctors and teachers, not just ballers and rappers. I want them aspiring to be a Supreme Court justice. I want them aspiring to be president of the United States," he said. (From Yahoo News/MSNBC)
